sad serenade

Luna; 19. Sometimes I write things.

It’s not all that sparking, love, really. Well, depends where you go I suppose but still. Well, anything’s possible right? Ha, yeah, yeah it is. At least, the rainy part is accurate, it’s not always as cold as people seem to think… Yeah, sure, sounds like a plan to me. Why not right? Am I? Ha, well, I aim to please? Not a problem. Historical fiction, actually. How about you Luna?

[gtfoluna]

Oh, please. I bet it's only like that to you 'cause you've probably lived there for so long. I'd love to go someday. Awesome! We'll need to get all the bigwigs on our side so I'll call my uncle who knows someone who knows someone who could possibly get into contact with Kanye West- it'll be amazing. That's a good quality to have so kudos to you. That's cool, I write Crime/Mystery. 

[j-beckett-deactivated20140209]

Oh…ha, right, sorry. Was worried for a moment. Well, you’d be correct. England, to be more precise. Oh really? Well, you sometimes hear those…just not as often I guess. Definitely! I say we suggest it to the others, get a petition going…yeah I don’t even know what I’m on about. Don’t worry about it, neither did I. Nice to meet you Luna, love the name, I’m James.

[gtfoluna]

Ooh, England. I've always wanted to go there- maybe someday my writing will take me there. Is it always as cold and rainy as some might say? Let's do it! We'll take New Orleans by storm with our petition for costume parties during months that aren't October. Aw, you're a flatterer, thank you. Nice to meet you too, James. I'm curious- what kind of writing do you do?

[gtfoluna]

This is my first Christmas away from home, and I'm kinda feeling emotional. I mean, of course my parents are gonna skype me and everything, but video chat can only go so far. Well, I guess we all grow up sometime.

[j-beckett-deactivated20140209]

Ah, well, though I’m sure you are special in some way, it’s a bit of a force of habit. Sorry. Don’t think it’s just girls though, if that helps? It’s the same as ‘mate’, a generic nickname, I apologise. Oh yeah, I’d have to agree actually. Could be a bit of a laugh.

[gtfoluna]

Aw, such a shame, I was actually feeling really special. I'm kidding, by the way. I'm gonna go on a limb here and say that you're from Europe or something? Just 'cause where I'm from generic nicknames would be 'bro', 'dude', 'babe', etc. Wouldn't it though? Wow, I just realized I have yet to introduce myself- I'm Luna.

[gagealdridge]

Is it proper etiquette to send gifts to family on Christmas, even if you’re not going to be seeing them? I just now realized my parents might be expecting something from me, but unless they accept maxed-out Starbucks cards that are only valid in California, I’ve got nothing.

[gtfoluna]

You could always go to a dollar store and buy a cheap Christmas card. To make up for it though, you should quote the sappiest poems or songs that you can find and include a little 'I love you mom and dad x'. I'm sure they'll love it.

[juliansntgo]

The fuck? That’s just low.

[gtfoluna]

You're the one asking if people want to fuck you, so. Tryin' to help out.

[jfcboo-deactivated20131227]

Maybe you should try eating chocolate while writing. It’s a win-win situation.

[gtfoluna]

That's a good idea. No one gets hurt that way, and I just have to keep the two in my life.

[ffscarrow-deactivated20140719]

Ehh— I’d hold off on the status updating, vine-ing, and tweeting. I’m not sold on the Bandanna-Bananas thing. Sounds like a Bananas in Pajamas western special or something. Our names’ll have to do for now. The cool names’ll come to us, I’m sure. Maybe we just have to bust our first bad guy or something— really get to know our new alter egos. Don’t sweat it.

[gtfoluna]

Well, I guess you're right. That's a big letdown though- Or maybe we can be like Peter Parker in The Amazing Spiderman; he let the name come to him and he stuck with it. Oh, I'm a giant Spiderman fangirl, by the way. I'm a biased 'cause he's a New York kid and all that. I'm rambling a bit, aren't I? Anyway, if we're going to be a team we need to get names out of the way. I'm Luna.

[jfcboo-deactivated20131227]

Shh, it’ll be our little secret.

[gtfoluna]

Thank you, thank you. I feel so bad for chocolate, but it just can't be.

[juliansntgo]

I don’t need your smart ass, just need some fun.

[gtfoluna]

Well, Craigslist is a thing for a reason.

[jfcboo-deactivated20131227]

Chocolate contains phenylethylamine, the same chemical your brain creates when you feel like you’re falling in love. No love life? Eat chocolate.

[jfcboo-deactivated20131227]

[gtfoluna]

I think I'm cheating on chocolate with writing. Oops.

[ffscarrow-deactivated20140719]

Fate is absolutely telling us we’re meant to fight and capture all of the evildoers that reside in New Orleans. Let me know if anything comes up. I don’t care much what we’re called as long as our version of the Batmobile is a Spotted Saddle Horse named Alejandro.

[gtfoluna]

I can't believe it- I have to tell all of my friends back home, update my status, make a vine, and then tweet about it. Everyone on all of my social networks has to know about this. So far, I've gotten Bandanna-Bananas- Pretty catchy, huh? Yes, yes, and a million times yes. Alejandro's gonna kick some ass too.

[ffscarrow-deactivated20140719]

Weird. I randomly found a ten-gallon hat and some fringed chaps at the bottom of one of my suitcases and I wasn’t sure how to feel about it, either. Think there might be more here than what we’re seeing? That maybe we’re destined to be some country-western dynamic duo— like Batman and Robin but with spurs and on horseback?

[gtfoluna]

Fate is obviously telling us something- we're meant to fight and capture of all the evildoers that reside in New Orleans. We need to think of a cool name ASAP. It has to be something catchy that rolls of the tongue. I'm googling ideas right now, don't worry.

[j-beckett-deactivated20140209]

Well, that works for me. Not a problem, love. At least now you know what to go as if there’s ever a fancy dress party ‘round here, right?

[gtfoluna]

I'm curious whether 'love' is something you call all of the girls you talk to, or should I feel special? True, very true. I wonder if the workshop would ever organize something like that- I think it'd be pretty fun.

[j-beckett-deactivated20140209]

Well, it does suit you, if that helps?

[gtfoluna]

It doesn't do much helping, but it did boost my ego so thank you.
