❝ you occupy my thoughts. day and night, even in dreams you're there. i want you to never stop haunting me. ❞
❝ i am eternally yours. until the stars go out. and maybe, even after that. ❞
❝ my heart bleeds the color of your soul. i would cut it out and put it in your palms if i could. ❞
❝ it's like you have knit yourself around my ribs. i could no more cut you out than i could remove my own lungs. ❞
❝ you are woven into my soul and i dare not cut a single thread. ❞
❝ i am yours, body and soul, to do with as you wish. ❞
❝ i don't require you to love me back, or to care for me as i do you. only let me be here, let me devote myself to you. that would be enough. ❞
❝ i want to trap your smile in a bottle and take it out when no one else can see. ❞
❝ you belong to me and i to you. ❞
❝ do not look away from me. i cannot bear it when i do not occupy your vision. ❞
❝ i will follow you. to the ends of the earth, to the very gates of hades and whatever might lay beyond. ❞
❝ i will always be here. no matter how far you go you can always come home to me. ❞
❝ tell me all the places you have been hurt, every rejection, every scar. let me love you in all the places where you have burned. ❞
❝ i will not ever let you go. ❞
❝ you cannot escape this. you cannot run away from the love we share. ❞
❝ what we have is deeper than words could capture. ❞
❝ i will be anything you desire. i pluck out the parts of me you find distasteful and stuff your love in the craters left behind. ❞
❝ tell me what you wish of me and i will do it. ❞
❝ i could spend all day merely watching the air in your lung. i would count every blink. i would cherish every sigh from your lips. i could watch you merely exist for the rest of my life. ❞
❝ don't let go of me. i think if you lost me i would die. ❞
❝ i will cut out the tongues of every man who has wronged you. ❞
❝ i wish i could crawl inside you and make a home out of the hollows of your bones. ❞

admit it. you're in love with me.
if only i had someone to go out with...
a date would be really nice right about now.
i might reconsider if you bring me flowers.
were you being serious back there?
did you just try to impress me?
was that another joke, or were you telling the truth?
we agreed that if no one asked us, we'd go together.
keep telling yourself that!
here it comes! the big love confession i've been waiting for!
you've been in love with me since the day we met.
you visited me in my dreams last night.
i know you're in love with me. you just won't say it outloud.
we can't hide this forever.
don't make me beg.
if you weren't so cute, you'd be annoying.
you're not very good at hiding how you feel.
you've been staring at me for a long time now.
is that what you really think of me?
you have feelings for me. admit it.
so what if i've been lying this whole time? for good reason!
you don't make this whole love thing any easier.
you make life difficult.
you're a piece of work.
is that how you really feel?
you're lucky you're so cute.
you're not really going out with them, are you?
i thought we... nevermind.
consider me impressed.
am i annoying you right now?
you didn't like that comment, huh.
i was only kidding!
you wish we were kissing right now.
oh, you'd just love to hear me beg.
i love our little back and forth.
sooner or later we'll have to come clean about how we feel.
i'm not good at hiding my emotions.
when were you going to tell me you were in love with me?
i actually hate your guts.
keep talking like that and you'll see how i really feel.
can your head get any bigger?
was that a joke?
were you just playing with me?
you didn't actually mean that, right?
hang on. you didn't just say that.
that was a joke, right?
this is just how we are when we're together.
i tease you, you tease me.
you and i have always been like this.
if i'm not annoying you, what's the point?
i'm allergic to tickling.
they said we'd make a cute couple. can you believe that?
are you always this annoying?
if i kiss you, will you turn into a prince? yes, i'm implying you're a frog.
you're lucky i love you so much.
you take that back!
that was uncalled for!
this means war!
this calls for a duel!
i'm challenging you to an arm wrestle.
last one there is a rotten egg!
i'm not racing you!
stop looking at me like that.
you stare at me a lot.
i know, i know. i'm irresistable.
something on my face?
a little bird told me you're in love with me.
prove me wrong.

brushing past them in disguise, pretending not to know them
adjusting their cufflink or watch mid-mission
helping them out of a tactical vest
gripping their wrist before they walk into danger
holding their face after a close call
brushing dirt or ash from their cheek gently
sneaking a hand under the table to reassure
linking arms to pass as a couple
tracing a fresh scar with careful fingers
pulling them close while hiding in shadows
fixing their earpiece, lips inches apart
pushing hair away to whisper a secret
pressing a hand to their chest to feel their heartbeat
zipping up their suit slowly, lingering at the collar
wiping a cut on their cheek with a thumb
lacing fingers together before parting ways
touching their face to make sure they’re real
grabbing the back of their shirt to stop them
brushing a hidden note into their hand
tapping their knee under the table for reassurance
laying a head on their shoulder after a long mission
cupping their jaw while patching them up
gripping their coat lapel to make a point
letting their fingers linger after handing over intel
holding their gaze while adjusting their glasses
brushing off shards of glass from their back
wrapping arms around them after a near-death moment
trailing fingers down their spine to check for wounds
sliding their hand over theirs in a tense car ride
resting a hand on their thigh mid-interrogation
pulling a splinter or wire from their skin
grazing their fingers while sharing a burner phone
tilting their chin up with two fingers to meet their eyes
tugging gently on their jacket to stop them from leaving
laying a hand over their heart after a confession
smoothing their collar after a close encounter
letting their fingers linger on a fresh bruise
catching their wrist as they reach for their gun
leaning forehead to forehead behind enemy lines
pressing a palm to their back before a mission
brushing off flecks of blood after a takedown
squeezing their hand before going separate ways
resting a palm on their chest during a rare moment of quiet
helping them out of a disguise, brushing hands often
letting their hand hover before finally touching
Would honestly love it if people would stop tagging @sanamuse in their outer banks rp posts...I don't watch outer banks, I have never watched outer banks and I never will watch outer banks so I definitely don't roleplay in the fandom. (And blocking 10 times a day doesn't seem to be helping)
zombie apocalypse meme
send in a number for a situation. some are shippy. one can potentially be nsfw.
—— SCAVENGING FOR SUPPLIES
001. our muses enter an abandoned super market / pharmacy / store that seemed quiet and zombie free … and then they heard a moan 002. your muse finds mine’s dehydrated and utterly close to passing out. 003. our muses run into a bag full of supplies … did the person who leave it die? did they forget it? or … is it a trap? 004. our muses barely get any alone time considering they’re always with their group; the only time they can be alone is during supply runs. our muses decide to take advantage of this by canoodling in the back room of the store. 005. our muses, who are strangers, run into each other in the pharmacy … and there’s only one bottle of antibiotics left.
—— LOOKING FOR SHELTER
006. our muses have been traveling the roads for weeks now, searching for a new place to rest their heads. they finally run into a town that appears promising … 007. your muse crashes in on my muse’s shelter, begging my muse to let yours stay for the night at least. 008. our muses are traveling up north when they run into a community. after some time, they decide to communicate with the leader of the community to try and get a place to stay. but something about this place just doesn’t seem right … 009. your muse is the leader of a community and my muse is the newest traveler to find it. your muse tries to gauge out if mine is a good addition for the community or not. 010. it has been weeks and our muses have gotten no luck in looking for a solid place to stay. it’s been messing with their mental, physical and emotional health … they’re very close to splitting up. they need to find something soon.
—— IN RIVALING GROUPS
011. our muses run into each other while out, they are both alone and have been instructed to kill anyone from the other group on sight. 012. our muses are the forbidden love of the zombie apocalypse : a part of rivaling groups but they sneak off and meet up whenever they can. OPTIONAL: one day my muse gets followed by someone a part of their own group. 013. your muse finds mine injured, your muse has to decide whether to help mine or leave them there to die. my muse is begging yours for help and is offering to give or do anything in return. 014. our muses are the leaders of their respective groups, they’ve agreed to meet to discuss a peace treaty. little do they know, they both planned to surprise attack the other. 015. our muses are caught in a heated war between their respective groups. my muse corners yours in a secluded area, they’re both about to attack until they realize … our muses are significant others that had gotten separated when the outbreak started months ( or even years ) ago.
—— VARIOUS OTHER SITUATIONS
016. my muse has the flu. a usually curable illness, but they ran out of medicine and now they have to find a way to go out and look for some without straining my sick muse even more. 017. our muses find themselves totally exposed in an open area with zombies staggering around them. they have to find a way to safety and fast. 018. our muses are leaders of their respective groups, both communities have been striving for over a year now. our muses are meeting to try and talk about the prospect of working together, trading, etc. maybe even come up with some kind of route so members ( and our muses ) can visit each other. 019. our muses are hungry and, by the grace of luck, there seems to be an animal they can eat and hunt. though, unable to use their guns with a fear that the noise would attract the dead, our muses need to find a way to trap that animal before they starve to death. 020.

princeton had been a deal - go to his mother’s alma mater, do decently enough to get a good job, and for the most part, his parents left him alone. he wasn’t exactly thrilled with it, but he didn’t have a lot of other ideas either - going with the flow was just kind of what he was always used to.
the bonus of it all was the people. some were incredibly stuck up, which made them easy targets to joke around with, though they didn’t think so, and most were hot - crash had a type, and it tended to be people who were too good for him. which holly definitely was - gorgeous, wicked smart, a little shy, but didn’t seem to truly mind his presence, which was all he could ask for as he wormed his way into her heart.
“they do,” he said solemnly, pushing the sleeve of his sweater up to showcase his arm as if there’d be suddenly an outbreak of a rash on his skin - “i’m moments away from needing an epipen, but i figured this is where i’d find you anyways.”
and the books surrounding her meant she’d probably been there for awhile, which had been his other assumption - holly worked herself to the bone, she needed someone like him to help break her out of her routines. “how much you got left? i found this insane mini golf course, and we’re going. you can’t say no - i’ve found a way to make it educational for us both. you can consider it a geometry tutoring session or something.”
╰☆╮
"if you don't know me well enough by now to know that I absolutely will, I think this friendship of ours has bigger things to worry about than my lack of hand co-ordination and your lack of boundaries." she considers it though, biting at her lip as she glances between her essay and crash and tries to decide if she'd put enough work in for the day to justify a break "i spent the entire summer before my sisters first year of high school prepping her for freshman math on the putt-putt course back home - you’re gonna learn mckay and you’re gonna love it."
she hadn't returned to riverside since she left almost three years ago choosing to spend her breaks with her aunt before she’d gotten her own apartment just off campus and although her and merry had slowly been inching their way back to each other - with merrick attending college over the bridge - they still had too long a way to go before things could ever be as simple and comforting between them as it had when they were young.
nostalgia maybe and wistful melancholy make up her mind for her (and possibly the twinkle in a pair of brown eyes that promises an end to both or at the very least a temporary reprieve) have her packing up her books neatly into her satchel before she can give herself a chance to second guess her decision and talk herself out of a fun time like she usually does.
"i'll need to swing by home to drop my things off and change and i'll absolutely need to re-caffeinate." some people downed a bottle of vodka to gain their liquid courage, holly preferred to find hers at the bottom of a coffee mug "do you wanna come with me or give me the address and i'll meet you there?"
packagecfgirlyevil·:
showing up at cooper’s had been instinct; for the past couple years, the two had been practically co-dependent, helping navigate through new york and college and finding themselves overwhelmed with the chaos of it all. when she had a bad day, it was still him she yearned for. ( and maybe it said something about her self esteem, that she was less hurt by the cheating than the fact that she was second choice, again, but - )
she’d let herself in, somehow falling asleep waiting. she knew where he probably was - with crash, certainly - and even if he came home with the other, maybe that was fine too. it wasn’t the first time her boyfriend had had his own boyfriend, she just…would have appreciated a heads up.
still, she shot up in surprise when she felt him wake her, stifling a yawn as she tried to remember why she was there. “not yet,” she said with a shrug, “i don’t - i don’t like how we left things. and i miss you,” she admitted, her words quiet. “i didn’t want to leave things the way we did. i was a bitch and i said some….really horrible things and - ” she bit her lip, her emotions already teetering on the brink before she reigned herself in. “i just missed you,” she said again with a small sigh.“
╰☆╮
every instinct in his body cried out to close the gap between them, beg forgiveness, say anything -do anything- to put the whole ordeal behind them and forget it ever happened.
he can't though, it's an old habit - the avoidance - one he's trying to grow out of with various degrees of success.
"pretty sure i deserved at least half of what you said that night mere." the i miss you too goes unsaid but merrick knows him well enough by now to understand his silences usually said more about what he was feeling than his words ever could.
but he owes her something - closure maybe or a clean slate. before her he'd never cared enough about any of the girls he'd dated to try to mend things once they broke. before merrick the only person he cared enough about to be real with was crash.
(a month without either of them in his life had been almost too much to take)
“i know you said you didn't want to hear any excuses but how about an explanation?”
(cheek) — to give my muse a kiss on the cheek! could be platonic, familial, or romantic (maya & whitney) for @packagecfgirlyevil
hitting on junior staff members barely older than his daughters while his political mastermind of a wife (and maybe maya was slightly biased when it came to mayor wood but her sister was a freaking supernova and billy wood had never truly appreciated her shine) was supposed to be celebrating her achievements but was instead trying unsuccessfully to blend into the furniture had to be one of the lowest things she'd ever witnessed her brother in law do.
(and considering the fact the man had two illegitimate children, couldn't survive a day without downing half a bottle of whiskey and his weakness for sticking his dick in any bottled blonde who looked his way that list was vast and varied)
grabbing two glasses of champagne maya weaved her way through the crowd of fake southern belles and handsy middle aged politicians, sidling up to her sister to place a quick kiss on her cheek.
"say the word and i'll have bucking billy pushing up daisies before the night is through" voice low and for her sisters ears only she's mostly joking but there's a hint of real intention behind her offer "i spent a booze filled weekend rocking the world of a guy i'm 90% sure had serious links to organised crime the last time i hit up NYC visiting char - i can make it happen.”
she hands her sister one of the glasses as she pulls back, standing close enough to act as a human barrier between the crowds of people and a slowly stewing whitney "or if you're into instant gratification how about i just walk on up there and knee him in the balls - do what you’re too composed to do yourself."
“ your inability to learn complicated handshakes is tearing this friendship apart. ” ( crash & holly ) - for @packagecfgirlyevil
"your inability to learn complicated handshakes is tearing this friendship apart."
she rolled her eyes as crash pulled his hand away and dropped into the chair beside her, almost too animated and dramatic to feel like he belonged scouring the stacks of lewis library.
sometimes holly questioned why he was even attending princeton to begin with, not that he wasn't intelligent enough -she found him to be scarily clever when he wanted to be and definitely ivy league material - but he came across as so completely uninterested in anything academic that she wondered why he was wasting his time bothering to obtain a degree at all when he should be doing something more adventurous and exciting.
"i thought we'd already established your almost pathological need to insert yourself in to my much needed alone time was the real reason we're struggling to reach bff status." she was aiming for standoffish but she was fairly sure the small smile tugging at her lips was ruining her efforts.
when she was being completely honest with herself she found him to be more than just a little bit adorable despite his over inflated sense of ego and his never ending well of charm - when it came to the opposite sex holly had always had a type and crash mccay (as dangerous and chaotic as his first name implied) stamped everyone of her attraction bingo boxes, she knew if she wasn’t careful she’d go and do something completely idiotic like develop feelings more complicated then just a harmless crush.
she really should have made a more concerted effort to stay as far away from him as possible the moment they'd met. keeping him firmly locked in the friend section of her mind was proving to be just as difficult for her now as it had been for her at sixteen when it had been her best friend making her laugh and blush and daydream about happily ever afters that would inevitably never come to pass.
"what are you doing here anyway? the last time i invited you to study with me you told me libraries made you break out in hives."
[ cover ] for your muse to cover mine with a blanket or a jacket - for @packagecfgirlyevil (because i honestly have no idea what your indie is anymore!!)
when he'd first walked through the door to his shitty off campus apartment to find his ex-girlfriend passed out on his sofa, cooper had briefly flirted with the idea that he was higher than he actually felt because there was no possible way merrick wood would ever even think to come near him again, not after the way they'd ended things, not after what she'd caught him doing.
(he’d fucked up, majorly, he’s aware even if he still won’t admit to it, but he’d never been able to say no to crash not in the twenty something years the two of them had known each other, and definitely not since the first time the two of them had hooked up)
but there she was, crazy hair spread over the cheap, scratchy fabric of the couch arm, his missing oversized faded nyu sweatshirt almost swallowing her slight frame whole, shivering in her sleep.
he tried to be as gentle as possible as he grabbed the throw hanging off the back of the sofa to cover her with, but the nervous shake of his hands made it almost impossible not to jolt her awake, the blonde jerking upright as cooper moved away settling himself against the coffee table far enough away to give both of them the comfort of space.
"you lost mere? last i heard you’d packed up all your shit and ran away to boston."
