“ god, you’re such a fuckin’ tease, “ jyn groans, letting her head fall backward in exasperation. “ hurry up, would you ? “ 

@furiosities​ liked this post for a starter ! 

          ❛   IMPATIENT?   ❜   daisy purrs, sweet as sugar as she pours into the tumblers at her little bar, draped in silk robe that settles on her form almost like liquid.  a smirk pulls at her mouth as she turns back to look at jyn, approaching almost lazily  --  because she does, indeed, like to  TEASE.  when she finally reaches her, she sits gracefully and hands one glass over, leaning close.   ❛   for the drink, or for me?   ❜

          ❛   I’m  --  sorry, but  WHO  are you texting?   ❜   simeon stops dead, latte halfway to his lips, a stunned  --  perhaps somewhat horrified  --  expression stuck on his face.   ❛   no way you’ve just said daisy davenport.  I misheard you.   ❜       //       @thelittleqveen

     isaac watches with slack jawed joy on his face as he goes on about paris, excitement and warmth spreading across his face the longer he speaks. “you have an apartment in paris?” he reiterates in shock, chuckling in playful disbelief. “that’s incredible! i love the apartments in france. i rented one out for a month when i was 20, it was – honestly incredible. best four weeks of my life.” he extends a hand to him for a shake. “it’s a pleasure to meet you simeon! i’m isaac.” he says, beaming. “that place sounds so amazing. next time i can afford a vacation, remind me to hit you up about staying there. i could use an opportunity to immerse myself in the romance of europe like that.”

          ❛   it’s true!  my job may be terribly boring at times, but my bosses are quite generous with the pay and I get plenty’ve time off.  can’t complain a bit!   ❜   delighted, sim shakes the other man’s hand, beaming with that trademark enthusiasm.   ❛   more than happy to rent it to ya, if you’re ever in the market.  it really is a joyful little spot, one of my favorites in the world, and ye can even hear the bells from notre dame first thing in the mornin’ if ye crack the window.   ❜   he sits back in his seat for a moment, clearly reminiscing.   ❛   hard to say if I’ve got a single favorite, though.  avignon is breathtaking.  venice is terribly romantic.  and I’m not sure even paris can rival rome in terms of art.  and that’s only t’ speak of france and italy.   ❜   another wide smile.   ❛   nothin’ better than tryin’ to see everything in the world before our time’s up.   ❜

          truly, it would not have offended lucien in the slightest, had she been entirely earnest in her words.  there was certainly nothing wrong with taking pride in one’s work, he thinks ;  rather, it would be more shameful not to  --  though the things he’d always been quietly proud of in his own life were not often sanctioned by those around him.   ❛   you needn’t voice any gratitude, dr. bishop.  as you say, you have worked hard your whole life.  you deserve this.   ❜   her youth in light of her achievements proves that alone, he thinks, unable to think of a single professor he’d had at oxford or cambridge who didn’t seem twice her age.   ❛   it is a well respected tradition in my family, to fund the arts of all kinds.  as a former student of oxford myself, I like to keep it close to home when I can.   ❜

     he tilts his head to the side in pleasant surprise and settles back, his perfect posture never wavering even as he visibly relaxes. “i love whiskey,” he answers plainly, a soft smirk on his lips. “that sounds perfect.” he waits for the other to finish his drink and slides the payment across the counter, taking a sip of his drink thoughtfully as he studies him.      “that’s a hell of a drink.” he comments warmly, still swallowing when he starts his sentence, softly distorting his voice. 

          if lincoln’s learned one thing over the years, it’s that most people aren’t particularly hard to please as long as you’re on the right side of the bar handing them anything that even resembles alcohol.  sure, he takes pride in his work, but at the end of the day, his experiments are more often than not appreciated for their strength more than their creativity.   ❛   thanks.  I sure like to think so.   ❜   nimble fingers grab the other man’s change as he watches him from the corner of his eye.   ❛   secret’s in the maple syrup.   ❜   not that the flavor wouldn’t be obvious, but even so, lincoln flashes a crooked smile as he pushes the smaller bills back to his customer.

          it’s rarely that simple and iella knows as much, so it’s hardly a surprise when her visitor tacks that second, more complicated bit onto her formerly innocuous request.  iella arches one shapely brow in response, not so much surprised by inquiry as she is about the candor with which the woman speaks of it.  the widowmaker  ...  as if it’s something iella hands out to every pretty woman asking for a cigarette.   ❛   you can have the smoke,   ❜   she says, holding out the carton invitingly,   ❛   but as for that ArmaLite?  I don’t just go handing out assault rifles without proper clearance.  and sometime’s not even that’s enough.  where the hell are you going that you'll be makin’ all those widows?   ❜

          a light smile on cherry lips, golden curls framing delicate features, appearing every bit the opposite of the dangerous, untrustworthy woman she is.  but daisy doesn’t intend to play her shrewd games tonight ;  she plans for something different.  a game still, surely, but she suspects she and her teammate will both be pleased with the results.   ❛   miss margarita!   ❜   she sings cheerfully.   ❛   surely you would fancy a drink in the new penthouse?  it’s just been renovated and I’m staying there all week to test it.  my brother says no other guest would be shrewder in their critique.   ❜       //       @thelittleqveen.  sc.

          long fingers tremble as iella struggles to light her cigarette.  she needs to sleep  --  she knows she does  --  but sleep simply won’t come every time she tries, no matter what means she uses.  it’s beginning to disorient her, but in a strange way, she’s used to the feeling.  it happens almost every time she’s near a breakthrough, but that doesn’t make it any more enjoyable.   ❛   shit,   ❜   she curses under her breath as she fumbles with her lighter ;  her hands shake too much to make it work.  a figure moves out of the corner of her eye and she glances up.   ❛   hey  ...  ‘scuse me  ...   ❜   her voice is so tired, tired, tired, crumbing at the edges.   ❛   do you have a light?   ❜       //       @diiadcm.  sc.

while being lovers to either of the davenport siblings would be taxing if you get emotionally involved, at least the perks would be nice, because their family owns an enormous five-star global hotel chain which means free penthouse hookups in many, many major cities internationally.
