Steady as the stars in the woods

Don’t argue with me.

I’m going to ignore that sarcasm. Hmmmm. You drive a hard bargain, but I’ll take it. See, business works.

I love our little fights, Astrid.

Mmm. But just the one time, love. Trust me, you don't want in on this forever, I'm one to know.

It’s Monday afternoon. Generally, you’d have class unless your schedule is worked to prevent beginning of the week suffering. Or you’ve graduated.

Well that's the most detailed response I've got yet, congratulations on being thorough.

I’ll just keep reminding you, no worries.

You're a little star, Steph.

noahxpearce

You’re an idiot.

I'm a fucking genius is what I am!

#c:noah

I hate you.

You should be more scared of me, hot shot. Fuck off. I’ll only do it if you give me a percentage. I need some benefit out of this too, ya know.

No you don't.

I'm terrified. Are you serious? Fine, fuck, 10 percent, but that's all, and no more freebies.

Don’t be so sure about that.

You dickhead. You go ahead and think that, but I’m sure my brothers would tell you otherwise.

Pfft, you love me Astrid.

Hey hey now, no need to get your brothers out! Come on, we've got a lovely junkie waiting on his around the corner.. I bet if you show a little more cleavage, he'll buy double.

Rude. Why do I still talk to you again?

Goddammit. Even I can’t deny the loveliness of your teeth. But you’re wrong there; I’d get into a good fight with pretty much anybody, good teeth or not.

Because you love me!

Awh come on, you wouldn't fight me. Besides, hate to admit it, babe, but you don't look all that strong!

Shut up. Some of us have to go to work in the morning most days.

For the wonderful service I’m doing for you, you better. You’re lucky we’re friends or I’d punch you square in the face - maybe I still will, just for the fun of it.

I go to work, and class, and then other work, shut up yourself.

Oh come on, you wouldn't do that! You wouldn't want to risk messing up these great teeth, would you?

Lucky you.

You’re so… you. But fine. Only because I currently have nothing better to do.

Mhmm. I am oh so lucky!

Such a charmer, you are! I'll give you a free one, don't worry! You've got one of those faces, you know the one's that people can trust? I sell more when you accompany me, it's great.

It has to happen once every week, unfortunately.

Nothing. I was supposed to be working but for whatever reason my boss gave me the day off - I don’t really care why because I got to sleep in longer and that’s a gift all in itself.

#c:astrid #I take it she knows of his drug dealing since they've been friends for so long :)

I usually just skip it completely and sleep.

Care to join me in the beautiful art of skipping class and selling a few baggy's for a little too much?

It’s Monday aka Funday aka get your “smart” ass out of bed.

Fucking Monday? Of course it's Monday.

What are you doing today?

kimberley-dawkins

Its Monday. Do you have class on Mondays?

#challenge #cd #20challenge

Ugh yes, yes I do. Statistics. Sounds riveting, right?

Challenge 1 || Getting to Know You.

8th of March. I spent my birthday working, but I ate cupcakes with Madison when I came home.

How many relationships have you had? (Who/When - Go into detail!)

I've had a couple, but none have been too serious. My first girlfriend was when I was fifteen, but we broke up when she moved away three weeks later. My most important relationship was probably with a girl named Letha. I don't know if I would have called her my girlfriend, we didn't like labels. Our relationship was strange, cruel and completely fucked up.. but she's the only girl I really remember, you know, more than just a good time.

What is your biggest regret?

Uh, I've not got many. Maybe not standing up to my father before he walked out. I knew it was coming, but I didn't say anything. Maybe I could have persuaded him to stay.

What is your favorite film, book and tv show?

Favourite film is probably Forrest Gump.. watched it a million times when I was a kid. Favourite book is a hard one, but if I had to pick one.. maybe The Great Gatsby. I don't watch much TV, haven't got time for it, and when I am home, my sister makes sure we watch every documentary there is.. I have watched a few episodes of Criminal Minds though, that's alright.

Do you have any hobbies or obscure interests?

I suppose I like puzzles. Always loved math, so anything to do with numbers really. I like riding my motorbike too, it's a good escape.

What is the weirdest thing you have ever done?

Uh, probably a lot of stuff I don't remember. My friend's told me I ran into a mall at 3pm, completely wasted and proceeded to dress up as Tina Turner. I'm really hoping they made that up though.

Do you drink/smoke/take drugs?

Yeah.

When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be a scientist, as hard as that is to believe..

Which character from a book/show/film do you relate to most?

Hm. Some people say I'm a bit like the Artful Dodger from Oliver Twist.. don't really get it.

Who is the person that has had the biggest impact on your life?

Well it depends what kind of impact we're talking about. My dad has pretty much had the biggest negative impact on my life, and then, I don't know, probably my little sister on the positive side. She made me grow up.

What mistake(s) do you continue to make/have not learned from?

Hmm. Missing class? But then again it's not really a mistake, I just don't have a choice in the matter. When work calls, there's nothing much I can do about it, is there? I do want to graduate eventually though.

What do you like most about your physicality/body?

Eh, people say I've got great teeth. I don't know, there's nothing I really don't like.

What makes you most vulnerable?

Definitely my little sister, and maybe my Mom. No so much any more, but for a while, yeah.

Did you do well in school? Where do you stand intellectually?

I did really well in school, got offered places in the top colleges, even a few scholarships. I'm good at Math, I love numbers, anything to do with them is great. Maybe if I made it to all of my classes, I could have graduated last year with the rest of my class.

When was the last time you felt really happy?

This is a hard one.. it's been a while. Probably when I was really little, I mean, I do feel happy at times, I'm not completely depressed or anything, but really, really happy. I couldn't pinpoint it.

What is your favorite color?

Black.

What is your favorite scent?

Cherry.

Do you hold any religious beliefs, if so - what do you believe?

Nope. I only believe what I see.

What is your usual coffee order?

Black.

If you could change one thing about yourself or your life, what would that be?

Maybe my temper.. it does get out of hand a lot. Maybe my sensitivity, it's not exactly a thing that's always there. Sometimes I wish I could care about the people I hurt, but I just don't.

marty-travers

Well, you graduated right? It must not have been that bad.

Honestly man, I think weed is the reason I graduated. You get some great philosophical thoughts high as a kite. My English essays were fucking brilliant.

#c:marty

ella-renthorpe

Easy, I’m never caught in confusion.

Nah, no college for me, but you’re right, that would be my very lovely boss. Pain. In. My. Ass.

Now it'll be my mission to catch you out!

There's always someone, right? I've got bosses and professors though, so double the pain! Where do you work?

#c:ella

steph-mendoza

Bingo. I have a feeling you’ll be asking what day it is again in a few days though.

I'm not even going to lie, I'll probably ask again tomorrow. My sleeping pattern is fucked up.

#c:steph

I’m rolling my eyes right now. Dumbass.

Hey! No need for insults, my ass is very smart. But I'm serious.. what day is it?
