Ā Ā Ā Ā "Ā Ā Ā it'sĀ forĀ theĀ PEDIATRICSĀ departmentĀ ofĀ myĀ hospitalĀ ,Ā pleaseĀ ,Ā tryĀ toĀ containĀ yourĀ Ā PHILANTHROPICĀ andĀ Ā goodĀ naturedĀ tendenciesĀ ,Ā mightĀ vomitĀ byĀ howĀ Ā KINDĀ youĀ areĀ ,Ā "Ā Ā eightĀ sneersĀ atĀ herĀ ,Ā butĀ willĀ stillĀ frownĀ atĀ theĀ Ā FORMINGĀ lineĀ ,Ā andĀ theĀ inevibiabilityĀ ofĀ what'sĀ toĀ comeĀ ,Ā butĀ ,Ā likeĀ alwaysĀ ,Ā risesĀ toĀ challengeĀ inĀ herĀ Ā TONEĀ ,Ā leaningĀ inĀ closerĀ ,Ā scornĀ lingeringĀ onĀ undercurrentĀ ofĀ hisĀ ownĀ toneĀ ,Ā Ā "Ā i'dĀ ratherĀ killĀ myselfĀ thanĀ takeĀ aĀ handoutĀ fromĀ theĀ likesĀ ofĀ youĀ ,Ā doublyĀ soĀ ifĀ itĀ meantĀ Ā touchingĀ youĀ alongĀ withĀ itĀ .Ā ALASĀ ,Ā there'sĀ actuallyĀ aĀ personĀ that'sĀ doingĀ goodĀ betweenĀ theĀ twoĀ ofĀ usĀ ,Ā andĀ it'sĀ clearlyĀ notĀ youĀ ,Ā soĀ ,Ā Ā "Ā Ā eightĀ throwsĀ hisĀ handsĀ upĀ inĀ theĀ airĀ ,Ā likeĀ inĀ someĀ kindĀ ofĀ defeatĀ ,Ā Ā "Ā areĀ youĀ gonnaĀ donateĀ Ā ?Ā doĀ youĀ wantĀ aĀ stupidĀ fuckingĀ kissĀ withĀ itĀ Ā ?Ā spitĀ itĀ outĀ .Ā Ā "
eight'sĀ wordsĀ definitelyĀ stingĀ thisĀ time.Ā butĀ giorgiaĀ isn'tĀ oneĀ toĀ letĀ someoneĀ walkĀ allĀ overĀ her,Ā beĀ itĀ herĀ firstĀ loveĀ orĀ aĀ completelyĀ randomĀ stranger.Ā āĀ iĀ thinkĀ theĀ childrenĀ you'reĀ doingĀ thisĀ forĀ wouldĀ muchĀ appreciateĀ itĀ ifĀ youĀ weren'tĀ soĀ crassĀ withĀ theĀ donors,Ā āĀ sheĀ repliedĀ withĀ almostĀ noĀ hesitation,Ā determinedĀ toĀ notĀ letĀ theĀ otherĀ showĀ justĀ howĀ affectedĀ sheĀ wasĀ byĀ hisĀ words.Ā sheĀ evenĀ managedĀ aĀ smileĀ beforeĀ puckeringĀ herĀ lipsĀ out.Ā āĀ well,Ā itĀ isĀ a Ā kissingĀ boothĀ afterĀ all,Ā soĀ i'dĀ likeĀ toĀ getĀ aĀ kissĀ withĀ myĀ donation.Ā ā
being single on and around valentine's was a constant reminder of just how single she was. gemma missed having somebody to truly celebrate the day with. instead of moping about her lack of a love life at the moment, she put her focus on the other types of love in her life. surely the carnival would be something fun to do at least. gemma turned around and nearly bumped into another body as she did. a small chuckle slipped from her, waving off the almost collision. "oh, hey gi!" her smile lit up her face at the sight of the other. "we really gotta stop running into each other like this," she joked. not that she was complaining. "nah, just a sister date..." the singer glanced around before looking back to giorgia. "she's around here somewhere. what about you, any dates tryna sweep you off your feet?"
giorgiaĀ feltĀ bashful.Ā sheĀ andĀ gemmaĀ wereĀ livingĀ inĀ theĀ sameĀ cityĀ now,Ā itĀ wasĀ onlyĀ inevitableĀ forĀ theĀ bothĀ ofĀ themĀ toĀ runĀ intoĀ eachĀ otherĀ fromĀ timeĀ toĀ timeĀ āĀ butĀ seeingĀ gemmaĀ againĀ wasĀ neverĀ somethingĀ sheĀ couldĀ beĀ preparedĀ for.Ā āĀ noĀ date?Ā iĀ findĀ thatĀ veryĀ hardĀ toĀ believe,Ā āĀ giorgiaĀ hummedĀ inĀ thought,Ā butĀ herĀ eyesĀ wereĀ tryingĀ herĀ bestĀ toĀ avoidĀ gemma's.Ā theĀ replyĀ mightĀ haveĀ comeĀ offĀ aĀ tadĀ tooĀ condescending,Ā soĀ sheĀ triedĀ toĀ correctĀ herĀ tone.Ā āĀ thereĀ haveĀ beenĀ aĀ fewĀ datesĀ hereĀ andĀ there,Ā butĀ it'sĀ justĀ meĀ todayĀ āĀ well,Ā includingĀ myĀ galĀ palsĀ āĀ stoppingĀ byĀ afterĀ fashionĀ week.Ā how'sĀ yourĀ dateĀ withĀ winnieĀ going?Ā ā

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ā Ā i Ā heard Ā someone Ā asking Ā for Ā a Ā scooped Ā bagelĀ Ā . Ā not Ā to Ā be Ā mean Ā but Ā i Ā kinda Ā wishedĀ i Ā wasnātĀ Ā leaving Ā the Ā shop Ā to Ā hear Ā the Ā aftermath Ā of Ā thatĀ Ā . Ā guess Ā they Ā didnāt Ā see Ā that Ā one Ā scooped Ā bagel Ā tiktokĀ Ā . Ā ā
āĀ i'mĀ afraidĀ you'reĀ goingĀ toĀ haveĀ toĀ fillĀ meĀ inĀ asĀ wellĀ becauseĀ iĀ haven'tĀ seenĀ thatĀ tiktokĀ either,Ā āĀ giorgiaĀ informed,Ā herĀ eyebrowsĀ raisedĀ inĀ interest.Ā āĀ whateverĀ aĀ scoopedĀ bagelĀ is,Ā iĀ thinkĀ theĀ realĀ crimeĀ isĀ eatingĀ aĀ bagelĀ withoutĀ anyĀ toppingsĀ āĀ i'veĀ witnessedĀ thatĀ blasphemyĀ withĀ myĀ ownĀ eyes.Ā ā
open.Ā ext.Ā aĀ petĀ shopĀ withĀ anĀ awfulĀ nameĀ andĀ anĀ evenĀ moreĀ appallingĀ smellĀ -Ā afternoon,Ā butĀ itāsĀ goingĀ toĀ beĀ aĀ longĀ dayĀ forĀ youĀ both.Ā @nepofmstarters
keithĀ fodio,Ā equalĀ partsĀ pertinaciousĀ producerĀ andĀ primaryĀ prey,Ā hasĀ twoĀ optionsĀ forĀ survival:Ā castingĀ himselfĀ asĀ aĀ mysteriousĀ vagabondĀ offeringĀ adviceĀ toĀ waywardĀ teenagersĀ orĀ craftingĀ opportunitiesĀ forĀ hisĀ prideĀ toĀ grow.Ā becauseĀ heĀ hasĀ noĀ adviceĀ andĀ cannotĀ beĀ mysterious,Ā heĀ hasĀ chosenĀ theĀ latter,Ā whichĀ isĀ whyĀ heĀ lurksĀ outsideĀ theĀ petĀ shopĀ playingĀ variousĀ originalĀ broadwayĀ castĀ albumsĀ (mostlyĀ theĀ onesĀ thatĀ featureĀ him)Ā toĀ figureĀ outĀ whichĀ fishĀ areĀ mostĀ cultured.Ā unfortunately,Ā hisĀ airpodsĀ areĀ betterĀ describedĀ asĀ argoncapsulesĀ andĀ betterĀ atĀ leakingĀ noiseĀ thanĀ acquaintingĀ fishĀ withĀ theĀ bestĀ ofĀ musicalĀ theatre.Ā āĀ whichĀ ofĀ theseĀ looksĀ mostĀ likeĀ anĀ elphaba?Ā orĀ aĀ galinda?Ā atĀ thisĀ pointĀ iĀ wouldĀ takeĀ aĀ flyingĀ monkey,Ā butĀ iādĀ ratherĀ notĀ haveĀ policeĀ searchingĀ myĀ propertyĀ forĀ goldenĀ caps.Ā āĀ heĀ barelyĀ registersĀ theĀ specificityĀ ofĀ hisĀ request,Ā butĀ heĀ doesĀ haveĀ theĀ tactĀ toĀ turnĀ theĀ volumeĀ downĀ byĀ aĀ barĀ orĀ two.Ā theĀ auralĀ damageĀ isĀ done,Ā however,Ā andĀ anĀ adolescentĀ dachshundĀ approaches,Ā staringĀ upĀ atĀ themĀ bothĀ withĀ big,Ā brightĀ eyes.Ā keithĀ moreĀ orĀ lessĀ leapsĀ awayĀ asĀ soonĀ asĀ furĀ entersĀ hisĀ lineĀ ofĀ sight.Ā āĀ oh,Ā absolutelyĀ not,Ā iĀ canĀ smellĀ theĀ steakĀ onĀ you.Ā āĀ itĀ isĀ atĀ thatĀ momentĀ heĀ realisesĀ thatĀ hisĀ eyesĀ haveĀ notĀ leftĀ theĀ humanĀ stray.Ā withĀ aĀ wryĀ chuckle,Ā heĀ pinchesĀ theĀ bridgeĀ ofĀ hisĀ noseĀ andĀ screwsĀ saidĀ eyesĀ shut,Ā envisioningĀ everyĀ directorĀ heāsĀ everĀ workedĀ withĀ bangingĀ onĀ theĀ paddedĀ wallsĀ ofĀ anĀ enclosureĀ ofĀ fire,Ā brimstone,Ā andĀ unpreparedĀ understudies.Ā turnsĀ outĀ facingĀ theĀ audienceĀ onlyĀ worksĀ whenĀ oneāsĀ audienceĀ isnātĀ splitĀ betweenĀ respectableĀ companyĀ andĀ animals.Ā inĀ retrospect,Ā thatĀ wouldĀ putĀ himĀ outĀ ofĀ work.Ā atĀ aĀ paceĀ thatĀ wouldĀ putĀ theĀ modernĀ majorĀ generalĀ toĀ shame,Ā heĀ adds:Ā āĀ thatĀ isĀ notĀ anĀ insult.Ā thatĀ isĀ anĀ observation.Ā youĀ smellĀ wellĀ done,Ā thisĀ commonĀ muttĀ isĀ rare.Ā ā
giorgiaĀ marianoĀ isĀ notĀ theĀ typeĀ ofĀ personĀ whoĀ wouldĀ goĀ toĀ placesĀ withĀ peculiarĀ smellsĀ ...Ā yet,Ā thisĀ time,Ā sheĀ foundĀ herselfĀ inĀ aĀ peculiar-smellingĀ petĀ store,Ā becauseĀ althoughĀ sheĀ hatedĀ foulĀ odours,Ā she'dĀ hateĀ forĀ herĀ veryĀ ownĀ furĀ babyĀ caraĀ toĀ starveĀ evenĀ more.Ā sheĀ wasĀ surveyingĀ theĀ arrayĀ ofĀ dryĀ catĀ foodĀ whenĀ theĀ strangerĀ hadĀ utteredĀ hisĀ firstĀ questionĀ outĀ loud.Ā giorgiaĀ didn'tĀ botherĀ toĀ lookĀ upĀ fromĀ theĀ rack,Ā butĀ almostĀ underĀ herĀ breath,Ā sheĀ replied,Ā āĀ i'mĀ sureĀ fishĀ wouldn'tĀ beĀ ableĀ toĀ decipherĀ notesĀ inĀ thatĀ highĀ range,Ā āĀ sheĀ continuedĀ pickingĀ onĀ itemsĀ sheĀ knewĀ herĀ catĀ wouldĀ like,Ā includingĀ aĀ tinyĀ stuffedĀ mouseĀ fromĀ theĀ smallĀ toyĀ section.Ā whenĀ theĀ dogĀ approachedĀ suddenly,Ā giorgiaĀ wrinkledĀ herĀ noseĀ inĀ distasteĀ andĀ startedĀ movingĀ awayĀ fromĀ theĀ dachshund.Ā sheĀ wasĀ almostĀ outĀ ofĀ earshotĀ fromĀ theĀ strangerĀ andĀ theĀ dogĀ whenĀ sheĀ turnedĀ aroundĀ atĀ hisĀ lastĀ comment.Ā āĀ iĀ wasĀ quiteĀ certainĀ youĀ wereĀ talkingĀ toĀ theĀ dogĀ andĀ notĀ me.Ā andĀ ifĀ theĀ dogĀ doesĀ smellĀ likeĀ steak,Ā pleaseĀ keepĀ itĀ awayĀ fromĀ me.Ā haveĀ aĀ lovelyĀ day.Ā ā
" oh ! my apologies for assuming . cotton candy sounds perfect . " vivienne gives her an easy smile ā feels a little embarrassed for suggesting the wine flight in the first place , and hopes she hasn't offended the other femme . " i was going to wear sneakers , but the photo ops of the night were really speaking to me . maybe next year i'll learn my lesson . " probably not ... vivi was a believer in style over comfort . " ... you've got a bit of a sweet tooth , hm ? me too . honestly , you'd think i'd be SICK of candy at this point , but i'll always be a sucker for it ā no pun intended . "
āĀ oh,Ā no,Ā it'sĀ alright!Ā āĀ giorgiaĀ assured,Ā noticingĀ theĀ wayĀ vivienneĀ hidĀ herĀ shynessĀ behindĀ aĀ smile.Ā giorgiaĀ wasn'tĀ exactlyĀ secretiveĀ aboutĀ herĀ pastĀ withĀ addiction,Ā butĀ sheĀ figuredĀ thisĀ wasn'tĀ theĀ timeĀ norĀ theĀ placeĀ toĀ explainĀ itĀ all.Ā instead,Ā sheĀ choseĀ toĀ moveĀ onĀ toĀ anotherĀ topic.Ā āĀ youĀ canĀ neverĀ goĀ wrongĀ withĀ aĀ pairĀ ofĀ boots,Ā trustĀ me.Ā they're Ā stylishĀ andĀ comfortable,Ā soĀ they'reĀ greatĀ forĀ anything,Ā āĀ sheĀ offered,Ā everĀ theĀ fashionĀ influencer.Ā āĀ ohĀ my,Ā amĀ iĀ thatĀ obvious?Ā iĀ getĀ godivaĀ chocolatesĀ mostĀ ofĀ theĀ time,Ā butĀ iĀ adoreĀ anyĀ otherĀ typeĀ ofĀ sweetĀ too.Ā pleaseĀ don'tĀ tellĀ myĀ nutritionist Ā āĀ she'dĀ killĀ meĀ ifĀ sheĀ foundĀ outĀ aboutĀ theĀ amountĀ ofĀ sugarĀ iĀ consumeĀ onĀ aĀ dailyĀ basis.Ā ā

giorgiaĀ wasn'tĀ usuallyĀ oneĀ toĀ dwellĀ onĀ herĀ pastĀ relationships,Ā butĀ withĀ herĀ literallyĀ beingĀ presentĀ atĀ aĀ valentine'sĀ dayĀ themedĀ event,Ā itĀ wasĀ difficultĀ notĀ toĀ thinkĀ aboutĀ howĀ sheĀ wasĀ currentlyĀ single.Ā itĀ wasn'tĀ herĀ fault,Ā thoughĀ āĀ she'dĀ beenĀ draggedĀ byĀ herĀ friendsĀ toĀ attendĀ rightĀ afterĀ they'dĀ leftĀ fashionĀ week,Ā soĀ sheĀ didn'tĀ haveĀ muchĀ ofĀ aĀ choice.Ā giorgiaĀ currentlyĀ hadĀ herĀ phone in hand and her armĀ raised,Ā lookingĀ forĀ theĀ bestĀ lightingĀ toĀ takeĀ selfiesĀ with,Ā whenĀ sheĀ almostĀ hitĀ someone.Ā sheĀ mumbledĀ outĀ aĀ quickĀ apology,Ā thenĀ lookedĀ upĀ toĀ faceĀ theĀ other.Ā seeingĀ gemmaĀ caughtĀ herĀ completelyĀ off-guardĀ andĀ sheĀ sworeĀ herĀ heartĀ leapedĀ atĀ theĀ sightĀ ofĀ herĀ formerĀ fling.Ā āĀ gem!Ā it'sĀ niceĀ toĀ seeĀ you.Ā areĀ youĀ hereĀ onĀ aĀ ...Ā date?Ā ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā aĀ frownĀ willĀ stillĀ comeĀ toĀ hisĀ featuresĀ ,Ā Ā "Ā Ā don'tĀ callĀ meĀ Ā PETERĀ .Ā youĀ lostĀ thatĀ privilegeĀ Ā yearsĀ agoĀ .Ā Ā "Ā Ā andĀ thenĀ ,Ā shakesĀ hisĀ headĀ ,Ā condescendingĀ Ā smirkĀ ,"Ā Ā whyĀ wouldĀ iĀ beĀ afraidĀ toĀ kissĀ youĀ Ā ?Ā Ā maybeĀ YOU'REĀ Ā theĀ desperateĀ oneĀ ,Ā Ā payingĀ toĀ kissĀ yourĀ Ā EXĀ .Ā orĀ doĀ youĀ justĀ likeĀ toĀ harrassĀ allĀ theĀ poorĀ volunteersĀ hereĀ Ā ?Ā Ā Ā "Ā
āĀ oh,Ā peterĀ ...Ā āĀ giorgiaĀ sighed,Ā purposefullyĀ ignoringĀ eight'sĀ firstĀ comment.Ā herĀ condescendingĀ smirkĀ onlyĀ mirroredĀ his.Ā āĀ don'tĀ takeĀ itĀ soĀ personally.Ā i'mĀ notĀ payingĀ toĀ kissĀ you,Ā it'sĀ forĀ charityĀ āĀ youĀ knowĀ that,Ā right?Ā orĀ āĀ āĀ aĀ scandalised gasp,Ā āĀ areĀ youĀ alsoĀ partĀ ofĀ theĀ charity?Ā āĀ giorgia'sĀ eyesĀ widenedĀ asĀ sheĀ leanedĀ in.Ā āĀ isĀ myĀ moneyĀ goingĀ toĀ payĀ forĀ yourĀ rent?Ā my,Ā it'sĀ veryĀ unlikeĀ youĀ toĀ sellĀ yourselfĀ justĀ soĀ youĀ canĀ getĀ by.Ā ā
closed starter for @gicrgiia !
honestly , vivienne doesn't know that much about the other femme besides that fact that there's always this weird ... TENSION between them . she hasn't been outright wronged though , so she's willing to try and make friends . " you don't look like you're enjoying yourself that much . " she smirks , nodding towards a booth nearby . " they've got specialty wine flights ā you down ? i could use the BUZZ . carnivals aren't my thing and i definitely wore the wrong shoes . heels are not made for walking all day long . "
evenĀ thoughĀ theĀ twoĀ wereĀ practicallyĀ strangers,Ā giorgiaĀ feltĀ asĀ ifĀ sheĀ alreadyĀ knewĀ aĀ lotĀ aboutĀ vivienneĀ ...Ā atĀ leastĀ fromĀ gemmaĀ hadĀ toldĀ herĀ aboutĀ theĀ entireĀ situation.Ā itĀ wasĀ ...Ā strange,Ā toĀ beĀ speakingĀ withĀ herĀ formerĀ fling'sĀ exĀ bestĀ friendĀ slashĀ girlfriend,Ā butĀ sheĀ putĀ onĀ anĀ easyĀ smile.Ā āĀ ohĀ dear,Ā yourĀ poorĀ feet.Ā iĀ wouldĀ beĀ havingĀ theĀ worstĀ timeĀ ifĀ iĀ hadĀ myĀ ownĀ heelsĀ on.Ā that'sĀ whyĀ iĀ hadĀ myĀ bootsĀ atĀ theĀ ready,Ā āĀ giorgiaĀ respondedĀ sympathetically,Ā lookingĀ downĀ atĀ herĀ choiceĀ ofĀ footwear.Ā āĀ and,Ā um,Ā thankĀ youĀ forĀ theĀ offer,Ā butĀ iĀ don'tĀ drink.Ā wouldĀ youĀ likeĀ toĀ getĀ someĀ cottonĀ candyĀ instead?Ā ā

location: the valentine's carnival participants: roman castillo & giorgia mariano (@gicrgiia)
"you know, i really thought this would be easier," roman admitted, turning to look at giorgia for a brief second before returning his focus to the game in front of them. he'd heard that carnival games are rigged but he didn't think they'd be THIS rigged. "i swear, i'll win you a bear, even if it takes all night." more likely, he'd end up paying for the bear.
āĀ you'reĀ quiteĀ theĀ gentlemanĀ forĀ wantingĀ toĀ getĀ meĀ aĀ stuffedĀ animal,Ā butĀ iĀ thinkĀ iĀ mightĀ preferĀ aĀ valentine'sĀ giftĀ withĀ moreĀ substance,Ā āĀ giorgiaĀ said,Ā onlyĀ theĀ merestĀ hintĀ ofĀ aĀ teasingĀ liltĀ inĀ herĀ words.Ā āĀ likeĀ someĀ chocolates,Ā perhaps?Ā basic,Ā butĀ absolutelyĀ deliciousĀ āĀ andĀ guaranteedĀ toĀ makeĀ meĀ happy.Ā āĀ
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā "Ā youĀ Ā ?Ā hereĀ Ā ?Ā doesn'tĀ seemĀ likeĀ yourĀ sceneĀ ,Ā i'mĀ gonnaĀ beĀ honestĀ .Ā thisĀ gonnaĀ beĀ aĀ PUBLICITYĀ thingĀ ,Ā doingĀ itĀ forĀ theĀ kidsĀ butĀ notĀ actuallyĀ caringĀ andĀ leavingĀ Ā ?Ā you'reĀ prettyĀ goodĀ atĀ thatĀ kindaĀ thingĀ ,Ā soĀ i'veĀ heardĀ .Ā Ā " ( @gicrgiia ā„ )
āĀ whyĀ doesĀ itĀ matterĀ toĀ you?Ā āĀ giorgiaĀ raisedĀ anĀ eyebrow.Ā theirĀ lastĀ encounterĀ didn'tĀ goĀ soĀ well,Ā andĀ sheĀ wasĀ wellĀ awareĀ ofĀ theĀ issuesĀ thatĀ stillĀ existedĀ betweenĀ themĀ āĀ butĀ sheĀ wasĀ noĀ longerĀ willingĀ toĀ tolerateĀ hisĀ rudeness.Ā sheĀ putĀ onĀ aĀ conceitedĀ smirk.Ā āĀ areĀ youĀ nervousĀ atĀ theĀ thoughtĀ of Ā kissingĀ me,Ā peter?Ā ā
