all girls are the same.

“Maybe just a little. I’ve always liked impressing you”, Amber-Jade said, smiling right back at her. “Ooh, what recipes are we talking about? I’m suddenly very glad that I ran into you so that I could take the position of taste tester”. She couldn’t help but groan loudly at Zoe’s admission. “That’s terrible. You know that I’m committed to my studies so that I can keep my scholarship but I’m not even that intense. We definitely need to focus more on your social life next semester”.

“And I’ve always liked impressing you, no matter how awkward my attempts are.” Zoe returned. “I’m thinking eclairs... or macarons. Something out of my comfort zone. I feel like cupcakes or brownies are too simple.” She pondered, debating over what she was going to bake. At her friend’s groaning, Zoe held her hands up defensively with a smile. “I know, I know, I’m addicted to working. But I could be addicted to worse?” She tried to reason. “But a social life is definitely in the cards for me, I feel like I need to loosen up a little before I have a burnout.”

“Can you believe we pay for this kind of torture?” Ryan joked. “My place would probably better. I’ve got loads of stuff. I should warn you though. My roommate’s a bit crazy.”

“I guess deep down, we’re all masochists. There literally can’t be any other excuse.” Zoe joked back, agreeing. “How crazy? On a scale of one to a thousand.”

amberjade-rhodes​:

“It’s impossible to forget about you”, Amber-Jade said simply. “I have no real skills in the kitchen but Ryan’s been teaching me to be a decent assistant and I’m an excellent taste tester. We both know that I’ll have no issue keeping up with you on the drinking front”, she laughed. “Please tell me that you’ve done something other than study since I last saw you…”, she trailed off; looking at her friend expectantly as she waited for details.

“Amber-Jade, if you’re trying to capture my heart, you’re definitely succeeding.” Zoe mused with a grin. “Okay, I’ll do the cooking and you can be my taste tester. Good thing that I’ve been saving a bunch of dessert recipes on pinterest.” Zoe said. However, at Amber-Jade’s next question, Zoe hesitated. “...guilty. But I did make a list of movies I haven’t watched yet and made a slight dent in it during breaks. Does that count?”

“How expensive do you think those things are? Actually, fuck it. The cost doesn’t matter. I’d happily drop top dollar so that I never have to deal with this shit again when I’m hungover”, Noah decided. “I feel like crap but that’s a sign of a fucking great night”.

“Want me to look it up? We should see which company has the best reviews. You know what they say, price doesn’t always equal quality.” Zoe offered. “I only remember, about, sixty percent of it. But I guess this hangover pretty much confirms it was pretty cool.”

ryanmillermu​:

Ryan laughed along with Zoe. “I will allow you to talk to me before cupcake baking commences,” she told her with a smile. “Kind of the same. Just been trying to manage all of my classes. Which is way harder than it should be, yeah? College really kicks your butt.”

“Definitely harder than it should be.” Zoe agreed wholeheartedly. “It’s like professors are in constant competition to see who can be the most demanding.” She sighed. “Where do you wanna do the ole’ baking fest, yours or mine?”

beau-x-valentine​:

Beau narrowed his eyes on Zoe as she talked about baking. It wasn’t something he liked doing, and he almost turned his nose up at her suggestions until she talked about having alcohol. “I was going to turn you down until you mentioned alcohol,” Beau answered honestly. “Now I’m completely down to do whatever you want if having alcohol is part of the plan too,” Beau drunk alcohol a lot. He wasn’t an alcoholic but he used it more as a substance to change his mood from being moody to being chill. “Promise me the alcohol isn’t going to be wine though? I don’t drink that shit,” he chuckled. 

Zoe grinned. “I figured you would, most people tend to check out when I mention anything that involves actively making the food and not eating it. I had to compromise to keep you interested.” She admitted. Zoe knew that some of her interests were acquired tastes. But that also didn’t mean she was boring; she knew when and how to have a good time. At his rejection of wine, she rolled her eyes playfully. “How does tequila sound? And if that isn’t it, how about whiskey?” She offered. “Wine is pretty great, though. You’re missing out.”

[Engraving] The Noah Fynn award for the most successful ghosting of 2020 

Merry Christmas, Zo! I’m glad that you committed yourself to your studies this semester and completely smashed it, although I’m selfishly kind of sad that I’ve barely been able to see you because of it. Let’s make up for that over the holiday season, alright?

Closed Starter

Unsurprisingly, the Delta Psi house had thrown a party on New Years Eve. Noah had ended up crashing in his room shortly before 6am but in his drunken state, he had forgotten to close the curtains in his room so by mid-morning, sunlight was aggressively streaming into his bedroom. “What a fucking terrible way to start the new year”, Noah complained, covering his eyes with his hand as he didn’t have the energy to get to his feet and fix the situation. “Do you think it’s a ridiculous idea to invest in those curtains that you can open and close with a button, like in hotel rooms?”

Zoe had admittedly partied a bit too hard too night before at the New Years Eve party. Like, raging hangover too hard. And as the sun shone through the window of Noah’s bedroom, Zoe groaned and threw the curtains over her head in an attempt to block the light. “No kidding.” Zoe responded to his complaint, now slowly managing to rise into a sitting position despite the pounding headache she had. “I'm honestly surprised you haven’t invested sooner. Though, better late than never.” Zoe told him. “Please tell me you feel just as horrible as I do.”

“Hey stranger! Wow, it’s so good to see you again”, Amber-Jade said with a warm smile. She impulsively pulled the other woman into a tight embrace, holding her for a few moments before pulling away. “I know that it’s been a while since we last hung out but you still know exactly what I want”.

“Same to you, you didn’t forget about me did you?” Zoe asked with a wide smile as she embraced the woman. “I keep all things that make you happy near and dear. We have so much to catch up on –– or at least I do.”

[kahloflores]

noahfynn​:

“I don’t know about that, Zo. It was getting dangerously close to ghosting territory, I was starting to think that I might need to report you as a missing person”, Noah joked. “I don’t kiss and tell, Zoe. If you weren’t around to witness the shenanigans first hand, you’ll never know about them”, he teased.

“Aw, did you miss me, Fynn?” Zoe joked. “Next time I decide to go on an extended studying hibernating session, I’ll be sure to send you a text.” She assured. “Shame, I was hoping you would. If you were gone, I would have... though, my life is severely less entertaining than yours.”

[ryanmillermu]

Merry Christmas Zoe!

I hope this new year brings you a heck of a lot less stress!

“Actually, that makes us very fortunate. This place wouldn’t be the same without you”, Lola told the other woman. “Okay, that seems like a much better idea because it requires less effort from both of us”, she laughed. 

“Aw, you sure you’re not just buttering me up?” Zoe asked with a modest smile. “Perfect, wanna do it at mine or yours? But just a warning if we do go to mine, my room is... in an abysmal state. Books everywhere, loose papers, there might be a stray syllabus or two. The whole nine.”

he leaned forward to check on leo - who was happily babbling away to himself without any kind of disruption - and then checked on zoe to make sure her drink hadn’t spilled in the collision. “as long as you’re okay.” he still wanted to check. his attention was brought back to leo was started smiling at zoe when she smiled at him. “this is leo. my son. he’s usually with his mum but she had an appointment or something apparently. i’m not as well versed in this whole steering buggies thing as i’d like to be so sorry again for almost hitting you with it.”

Zoe smiled brightly at his consideration of her wellbeing. “I’m peachy, is the little one okay?” Zoe asked as she watched him check over the baby. “He’s absolutely adorable!” Zoe squealed as she looked him over once more. “Ah, I see. And yeah, steering wheels can be a bit annoying to navigate, so I understand the struggle. Are you new around here, by chance?”

lostsouldean​:

dean blinked as danielle handed him his son with a lot of rushed apologies and then handing him the baby bag on to his shoulder. there was something about a work appointment that was last minute before she got in her car and drove off. dean finally turned his head to his son in his arms. “guess we have a father-son day, huh? but first, i need some coffee.” he extra carefully put leo in to his buggy and without looking almost walked in to someone. “sh-sugar…” he managed to catch himself before he swore. “sorry about that!”

( @monarchstart​. )

“Jesus Chr––” Zoe mumbled, managing to stabilize both herself and her coffee cup before anything could fall victim to the ground. “Don’t worry, it’s fine.” Zoe dismissed with a shake of her head. “No damage was done,” she told the other, then broke into a smile at the sight of (her assuming) his child. “Who’s this little guy?”

[kahloflores]

noahfynn​:

“… Zoe Kahlo-Flores, is that really you?” Noah asked incredulously, not having seen her for sometime now. “I was starting to think you were ghosting me and my feelings were beginning to get hurt”, he teased. “We could get very drunk to make up for lost time and make my infamous brownies”, he suggested.

“In the flesh, Fynn.” Zoe mused with a smirk, giving a slight bow. “I’d never ghost you, just so you know... intentionally, anyway.” She teased him back. “That sounds like the perfect welcome back party. And while we’re at it, you can get me caught up on all of your shenanigans since I’ve been gone.”

[kahloflores]

lolafields​:

Lola had been reading a book on one of the benches on the quad and looked up in surprise when someone approached her. “Holy shit, I was starting to think that you had dropped out”, Lola teased when she saw that it was Zoe in front of her. “You know that I have literally no skills in the kitchen but if you want to risk me setting the kitchen on fire, I’m happy to help out”.

“Unfortunately, Monarch hasn’t seen the last of me just yet.” Zoe said with a small smile as she took a seat next to the other girl. “Or, we can just axe out that plan entirely and order pizza and binge watch holiday movies? I’m desperate for social interaction and unhealthy food at the same time.”
