“I’m honored.” He deadpanned, looking the girl up and down. He wasn’t the best person to announce something like this to, it wasn’t as if he’d help spread it around. It’d be a miracle if he even decided to show up to the party. “I doubt anyone’s in the partying mood.”

“As you should be,” she beamed, not catching on that he was far from delighted by the extending of her invitation. In Jax’s mind, it was an honor to be invited to her party, and at that, it was the perfect time to be throwing one, “Au contraire! You’re the first to actually hear it, from me, but Lucy’s facebook post had, like, forty likes by the time I arrived at school. That’s forty people who’re in the party mood-- some of them even used the ‘wow’ reaction! C’mon, Diego; a party is just what you need.”

oliviaabrks:

it took a moment, or, more than a moment, for Olivia to process everything being said to her by the girl. she had zoned out to the point where she must’ve been in the Twilight Zone, having to be snapped out of her head by the sudden thud of Jax on the table. “is…is this your way of coping?” the girl asked, eyebrows raised. it wasn’t a quick jab or anything, just a genuine question. “i, uh, when is the party?”

“Coping with what?” It was Jax’s turn, now, to feel behind in the conversation. Her mind was going a mile a minute, so focused solely on plans for the night ahead that it took her too long to realize what Olivia was referring to-- “With Kara? God, no. There’s nothing to cope with.” Ha. As if. However, no matter how much her expression might have soured at the very insinuation she was throwing a party to cope with the tapes, she brightened up again pretty quick, “Well, I’m saying it’ll start at eight, but factoring in pre-drinks and all, that means it’ll probably start closer to six-- the sooner the better. Will you be able to make it?”

Carson had an eyebrow raised at the girl. She knew where it was going when she said her parents would be out of town. “I’m in. I love a good party.” She smiled. Carson was a party goer for sure. She never missed one unless someone she didn’t like was hosting. “What should I bring?”

“Well then, you’re going to love tonight. Some of the greatest parties this boring little town has seen have all been orchestrated by yours truly,” or at least, she was taking credit. It was rare enough that Jax was able to throw a party at her own house-- her parents would never have allowed it-- but, she was pretty good at convincing members of her inner circle to, “Drink, duh. That’s the big thing everyone’s gotta bring-- I can only stock so much, and the last thing we want is to run out. And friends, don’t forget friends-- I want the place to be a health and safety hazard, if you know what I mean.”

normally ryan would try to ignore people who tried talking to him, but in this situation he was interested in what jacqueline had to say. “a party?” he asked with a laugh as he leaned back in his seat. “i agree that its long overdue,” he laughed, “i’ll be there,” he said with a grin, “and i’ll invite the guys.”

“Not a party, Ryan, my sweet, summer child- the party. The only place worth being tonight,” she was so, absolutely pleased with herself, and it showed in her grin-- practically ear to ear, “Bring yourself, bring the guys, bring drink... bring a little something extra, if you know what I mean. Between you and the jocks and my friends and I, we can cheer everyone up.”

Brown eyes wondered up to the ceiling as Addie walked through the school corridors. As one hand popped a strawberry in her mouth, the other was tapping away on the clear container to the music pumping through her headphones. She was trying to distract herself, worried that somehow her secret on the tapes had gotten out and everyone was now silently judging her. Instead, Addie tried to focus on the soft music and what dance steps would go well with them. An arabesque here or maybe a soutenu? Her thoughts, however, were interrupted dramatically as she smacked right into someone.  “Shit!” Her hands jumped to her headphones, pulling them down as she frowned apologetically. “I’m so sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.” Now she was probably being judged.

In the middle of spreading the news of the party she intended to throw to even more students, Jax was thrown completely off guard when someone crashed into her, flying forward a step or two before she managed to steady herself. “Watch where you’re going--” she started, turning on her heel and ready to say worse before the surprise of who it was shut her up... for a minute, at least. “Adelaide,” she said as way of greeting, "You’re a little distracted, huh?”

“Wow, what an honor!” Felix exclaims sarcastically, “I think you need better party planning skills. I mean, what if I planned on crashing it with a little tip to the local police station?” Felix questions some more, a hand laid upon his chin in thought. Though he wasn’t serious, he placed a fair warning. He watches curiously as the girl fidgets with his pen, the thought process taking entirely too long to sink into her brain. “Yeah right, because of her. I’m not a doctor but, I’m fairly sure parties aren’t the cure to ‘move on’ from loss. Far from it really.” He mutters. Felix didn’t like to speak about it, but found it unsettling when she was only referred to like an object. Leaning back onto the table, he uses his elbow to nudge the girl. “I’ll think about it if you would just get off the table.” He tries to settle with the other, “You should really learn to be a bit subtle.”

“But you wouldn’t do that,” the hand tapping the pen stilled for only a moment as if to enunciate the seriousness of her words, as she gazed down at him, “Because you’re a party pooper, but not that much of a party pooper.” If you asked Jax, he should have been honored to be invited-- and he definitely shouldn’t have been placing a threat like that. “You said it yourself; you’re not a doctor,” back to fidgeting once again, Jax went so far as to avert her gaze, “Dwelling is dumb. She’s gone, we’re not, we all have to move on eventually.” That was especially harsh, she knew, but she couldn’t say anything else-- anything else might have betrayed that she wasn’t quite as numb to the subject as she was letting on. “Subtle isn’t my forte,” it was said in the same way she might have protested being elbowed, voice a little too high as she took the hint, finally, and hopped back down-- though she was quick to round to the front of his table and lean across it on her elbows, gaze level with his own. “You’ll have fun, I promise. No one ever comes to my house and doesn’t have fun-- there are like, laws against it. There’ll be plenty of drink,” voice sing song, she batted her eyelashes as if it would help in any way.

Felix’s pen drops from his hand to the table, the girl’s forward approach startling him. “Why am I the first person to know?” He squints, genuinely curious. On a normal day he would most likely to be the last person in the book to be told. “I’m flattered, but don’t you think it’s just a bit insensitive?” He ponders, crossing his arms over his chest somewhat similar to a parental unit’s reaction. His head shakes disapprovingly. “As much as a Jax Chung festivity sounds like quote, unquote ‘fun’, consider me out. I have things to do and I won’t be contributing to this recipe for disaster. Now get off the table, I was busy if you couldn’t tell.”

"Isn’t that obvious? I saw you first!” Bubbling with over the top energy, Jax could barely keep herself still, and she plucked his pen from where it had fallen to tap it, over and over, against her knee. “Insensitive- how?” She blinked, a too long moment passing before the penny dropped, “Oh, cause of her? Pft. Right. If you ask me, a party is exactly what everyone needs to move on- what’s insensitive about that?” It seemed to be the very definition of ‘insensitive’, but, that wasn’t exactly sinking in. To say that she was disappointed with the reaction she’d gotten from the very first person to be invited would’ve been an understatement-- lips turning pouty, Jax mirrored his arms crossing, letting his pen fall back to the table as she did, “It will be fun, and, if you don’t come, you’re gonna regret it-- c’mon. I’m sure your things can wait.” As for sitting on his table, still... she didn’t even acknowledge his request, keeping herself perched in place.

“You are the very first person to hear my very good news- if I were you, I’d be considering this my lucky day,” avoiding any number of chairs she could have taken and hopping straight up onto the table, instead, Jax’s red lipped smile was huge as she leaned forward on her crossed legs. She was treating what she had to say next like it was some big secret, in spite of the fact that by midday, it would already have spread around the entire school, “My parental units are heading out of town today-- it’s a whole big thing, some meeting of churches or something-- and you know what that means, right? Consider this an invitation extended to you, and anyone you wanna bring along. Everyone at this school is long overdue a famous Jax Chung party.”

greetings!! i’ve accidentally set myself up for a sorta busy day, so, i said i’d write my lil intro and some points about jacqueline now instead of later!!

my name’s rachel (i’ve also gone by vina), i’m eighteen, and i live in ireland so i’m part of the gmt timezone. i’ve been roleplaying for about six years now, writing for even longer, and i have had so much experience from way too many fandoms, bc i’m super into so many books/shows/movies (mostly marvel & prison break) (i apologize in advance for any tuesday night absences- i will probably be glued to the tv waiting for the new eps for the next 8 weeks). i’m honestly such a boring trash person who enjoys writing drama(tm) and i suck at thinking up fun facts abt me and stuff but :-) u can click the readmore to be told some fun facts abt jacqueline i’m so much better at describing characters~~

meet jacqueline “jax” chung

she’s seventeen years old and the youngest of a family of four- she has one brother, only a year or so older than herself, and two older sisters 

until she was 15, she didn’t know what it was like to live in a town (or even a country; she’s been to places dotted around the world, too) for more than a few months at a time. her dad is a christian preacher, and he and his wife dragged their children anywhere there was need for years until a position came up in his favorite place to date, and they settled, locally

though at first she found small town life to be boring, and was a bit of an outsider in all respects, jacqueline soon fell in with the wrong sort of crowd- the it one. this sort of a group seemed to be the perfect fit for her, and pretty soon, she wasn’t just in with the it crowd, but the leader of the it crowd. don’t be fooled by this social standing, however- jax still is, to this day, all alone. the people she surrounds herself with are friends on paper but not in practice, following her around and following her lead when it comes to doing whatever it is she’s doing, but they’re never really there when she needs them. don’t get me wrong, though- she’s not there for them either. 

kara called her a hurricane, on her tape - and that’s the way i see her. she is a hurricane of a girl, sweeping people up in the storm that is her before letting them drop, suddenly. she’s flighty and out to live her life to the fullest in all the illegal ways she can, but she doesn’t tend to take other people into consideration. she’s messy and wild and she does everything that she shouldn’t do, but there’s an emptiness to her, too- a feeling she tries to fill with parties and hook ups and drink and drugs.

that’s one of the big things i know about jax- she’s an addict. the only way she gets through days at this point (especially after the tapes) is by taking a little something- and it doesn’t matter what that something is. she’s reckless- she doesn’t stick to one thing.

house angel, street devil - that’s jax. at home, she’s the sugary sweet preachers daughter she was raised to be, who’s never done anything wrong in her life. everywhere else, she’s a terror. i’d go so far as to say, then, that she’s really setting herself up for self destruction, through everything she does.
