› STATUS : closed. › LOCATION : rancher's grocery. › FEATURING : stellan & helena ( @facvde )
life was moving quickly, and yet stellan didn’t feel a day over thirty five. those around him would grow up and mature — students graduating, going to college, carving careers for themselves — and yet he didn’t feel different at all. the reflection told otherwise ; his sandy blonde hair slowly turning grey and the crows - feet wrinkles in the corners of his eyes. offloading a few things for an evening meal into the basket ( tomatoes on the vine, fresh pasta, a good glass of white wine ) was when he spotted her. helena, a girl he had taught briefly yet had never forgotten, one that he had made extra effort to include when the unfamiliar world seemed so big and scary. he knew how it had felt, to be the new and strange student in an established cohort. although decades had passed since it was stellan walking those corridors alone and, he supposed, a good few years since helena’s time, too. “fancy seeing you here,” an entertained hum, “you know, i never envisioned us reuniting in the dairy aisle.”
› STATUS : closed. › LOCATION : tiny sprouts. › FEATURING : stellan & utp ( @grlstrip )
he had never felt older. staring at all sorts of brightly colored boxes, of trinkets and charms and doohickeys, stellan wondered at what age the world had left him behind. none of it truly made sense, but that did not matter so long as the haul at the end of it brought a smile to his daughter’s face. calla had been gone … well, she had moved out a few years before and, still, the wound was fresh like it had happened yesterday. maybe buying her all sorts of shiny things was his way of ensuring his daughter wouldn’t forget her old man any time soon. “hey, sorry — ” despite thirty years in willow glen, his accent was thick ; lilting in its cadence and staccato in its rhythm. “i’m looking for something for my daughter. she’s about your age. what … ” shoulders shrugged in defeat, and stellan breathed a laugh of total disbelief, “ … what does all of this mean ? ”
› STATUS : closed. › LOCATION : old fox books. › FEATURING : stellan & callie ( @southrngrit )
if asked, stellan's wife would have told anyone in passing that her husband had read every book in the world. in reality it wasn't quite true, although compared to the average passerby he had many a title beneath his belt — long and winding epics, poetry anthologies, explosive debuts ... it was why callie's face seemed so familiar, as he took a double take across the bookstore. he supposed, for an author, a store such as old fox books brought the same level of dread as the high school on a saturday ; the lingering and ever-present threat that a fan ( or student ) might shriek across the room searching for a reaction. voice low, an unfamiliar cadence despite his three decades in the states, he approached the younger woman as though a skittish animal. “excuse me,” he began, “you look familiar.”
closed for @evigh3t location : the hallström residence
" okay , that's the last of it i think . " a dusty old box , that had been buried in the attic longer than esti would like to admit is settled on the floor , just beside the creaky ladder . a cobweb clings to a tendril of grown out bangs . " i didn't realize i held on to so much stuff . do you think we should have a yard sale ?? "
his wife's compulsion to hang onto every earthly possession was not the scandinavian way. although, as esti had so often reminded him, if he had wanted the scandinavian way he should have married a scandinavian wife. stellan stood against the door jamb, coffee in hand, idly sipping as he watched her ; of course he would have helped lift the box, but his sore back ... “i think a yard sale sounds like a perfect idea. we can make some space, free up our attic.” for more trinkets, no doubt — necklaces made of pasta from the children esti looked after, ‘ best teacher mugs ’ from every end of year celebration ... and all of their daughter's cast - offs that she left behind. “sweetheart,” he chuckled, reaching out to loop the cobweb around one finger, “are you trying to start a bug hotel in your hair ? ”
status : open for all ( 0 / 4 ) ! location : a random sidewalk — the district.
" wait, hang on ! " jina all but pops up from a random bush, hands stretched out in front of her and likely covered in dirt. " sorry, i didn't mean to scare you. " she dusts her hands over her clothes, dusting away dirt and the twig that stuck to her shirt. " i look kinda silly in this bush, but i need your help. there's a cat in here that is so dang slippery— i've been trying to catch her for the last thirty minutes ! " she frowns. " do you think you could help me ? "
stellan had thought, when their daughter moved into her own place and left the nest empty, whether getting a pet would have been a good idea. something soft and loving, a child without all of the commitment. if him and esti had it their way they would have brought an entire pack of hallström's into the world ; life's ways had stopped them in their tracks and allowed the couple only one. walking back from the school at the end of his shift, listening to the birds twittering above, he slowed at the sight of a young woman emerging like some forest creature. “a cat ? ” a brow raised, yet stellan couldn't help his smile, “what do you need me to do ? ”
was that stellan hallström i just saw over at the nature reserve ? you know, the fifty year old english teacher at willow glen highschool that’s been around willow glen for thirty five years. people around town say they can somehow both be stubborn and warm, but if you were to ask them, they’d probably say they’re more like cable knit sweaters & long winters braved with only a jacket, coffee - ringed paperwork and golden hair slowly tarnishing to silver, as inevitable as patina on copper. the town sure has been rumbling about them lately, apparently they are dealing with a severe case of empty nest syndrome, and wonder if life will ever be the same again . . . but who knows if that’s true, i guess i’ll just have to stop by willow heights and find out !
“are you ok?” no but I’m funny
