“ my tv is broken, and i can not be alone with my thoughts. “ - guy

now normally the second half of his comment would be the concerning part for gigi - but at this point of knowing guy, she’s fairly certain it’s just his way of being a bit overdramatic as usual. or at least, she hopes. so it’s the broken tv that really catches the redhead’s attention. “you didn’t smash it did you?” she asks, worried for a moment that he might have done exactly that upon seeing any of the pop culture news shows talking about jello. “’do we need to go out and find you a new one now?” @guyydiamond

[missmagicmoth]

“ if you could see your whole life from start to finish , would you change things? “ (rosie)

lips twisting into a frown at the question, gigi turned to look over at her best friend and took a second to consider both the question and what could have prompted rosie to ask it. “probably not,” she answers honestly. “maybe i would have gotten closer to you back in school. but other than that, no - i don’t really think so.” there’s a pause where she feels like she’s supposed to ask what about you - but she already knows the answer to that. there are probably a lot of things rosie would want to change about her past - hell there are things in the other girl’s life that gigi would want to change for her if she could. “what brought that on?” @rosiewidow

[rosiewidow]

jello might have been one of the worst things rosie’s ever had to sit through. she’d felt that strongly about it when clio first sent it to her weeks ago, and she after rewatching it this morning she was nothing if not more certain of the fact. it’d taken a lot of willpower to keep from making fun of guy for it, desire to tear down men for every little thing silenced the one time there was something worth tearing down. but she couldn’t do that to guy — and so she kept her mouth shut, pretending she hadn’t seen it to preserve his pride. well, now there was no room for pretending anymore, not when it was a trending topic on Twitter. some of the jokes online were funny, but once again rosie chose to be the bigger person and comfort her friend instead of further embarass him. that’s how she and gigi find themselves at the karaoke bar, star shaped cookies in hand as they look for guy. after a few minutes of wandering the bar rosie sighs, leading gigi to where guy’s office is. “maybe he’s not even here?” she looks over at her best friend as they knock on the door. @missmagicmoth @guyydiamond

[missmagicmoth]

while she knew that rosie certainly had opinions about jello, as well as clio, gigi herself hadn’t thought it was that bad of a song. not the greatest by any means - but she’d argue it wasn’t the worst thing ever created either. it was... kind of fun, actually. but apparently that wasn’t good enough for everyone else. and after having seen the first few tweets going around making fun of the boyband as a whole and then even more poking at guy specifically, the redhead knew something needed to be done. she may not be as close to guy as rosie was, but he was still her friend without a doubt and she knew him well enough to be fully aware that he would not be taking this leak well. “if he’s not then we go to his house,” she answers, standing beside her roommate with the platter of cookies. “or his old apartment. or poppy’s. he’s gotta be at one of those places.” @guyydiamond

[rosiewidow]

a continuation from here. 

sitting in the driver’s seat of her car, rosie rests her head on the cool glass of the window. grabbing food and candy with gigi before hand had been a good idea, because as they both predicted they’d been waiting for P.T. to leave for about an hour now. popping a sour gummy in her mouth, rosie hums a little disappointed sigh. “what is he even doing in there?” she asks, looking over at gigi. “it’s not like he takes his job seriously enough for me to think he’s working.” @missmagicmoth​

[missmagicmoth]

thinking the question over for a second, gigi gave it actual thought. it wasn’t something she’d ever considered before - never really wanting to think about P.T. more than she had to. “drinking?” she suggests, pulling the lemon lollipop out of her mouth and leaning forward a bit as if that would help her see into the building better. “though i dont know why he doesn’t just go to the tavern or a bar for that. it’s kinda sad to just drink alone in your office like this.” 

[missmagicmoth]

rosiewidow​:

as is with most things, rosie follows gigi with little to no complaint. in this case it’s no complaint at all, as rosie follows the redhead to the kitchen. “i don’t know, that’s up to you.” she shrugs, looking up at the items in the pantry. “i can always go for cookies, but if we’re giving them to poppy maybe not cookies?” she knows for a fact that poppy baked cookies with lily rose on christmas eve, and she’s sure she’s probably baked cookies again since. “maybe we can do cupcakes? maybe chocolate? who doesn’t like a good cupcake?” 

nodding her head at the thought, gigi had to admit that rosie was right. she herself had no issues with baking cookies all day every day, but perhaps not everyone would feel the same. and cupcakes were a good way to mix it up. “chocolate cupcakes it is,” she agrees eagerly, reaching out to grab the flour and cocoa powder from the pantry. “ooh do we still have the little star sprinkles too? those could be festive for new years!”

[missmagicmoth]

rosiewidow​:

rosie shoots gigi a look, amused smile on her face at her best friend’s joke. “a real boring house.” she reminds her. it’s never been a secret that rosie’s childhood was far more tame than gigi’s was, and even less of a secret that rosie had always been envious of that. “my parents used to do crosswords and watch the news until they went to bed. and as fun as a crossword sounds,” she rolls her eyes, sarcasm dripping off her words. “i don’t want to spend my new year’s eve doing that necessarily.” she pauses, trying to think of something they could both agree on. “we could…bake something. i’m sure poppy would love to come back to a sweet treat when she comes to pick up lily rose. or we could…craft or something.” the options were surprisingly limited considering there was a baby in the house. 

as rosie looks over at her, gigi just grins and lets out a small laugh that stops suddenly as her face scrunches up a bit at the thought of doing crosswords or watching the news for the rest of the night. neither of those ideas sound even remotely fun to the redhead, but thankfully she knew rosie wasn’t seriously suggesting it. and then when the other girl does give a real activity for them to do before gigi can think of one herself, it’s perfect. jumping up from the couch, she nods eagerly and starts to head towards the kitchen. “what should we bake?” she asks as she opens up the pantry and lets her eyes scan everything they have. “you can never go wrong with sugar cookies - but are we cookied out from christmas? what’s a new years type of treat?”

[rosiewidow]

admittedly, rosie hadn’t been expecting to spend her new year’s eve with gigi. early on she knew she’d be babysitting, more than happy to spend her night making extra money — even more so when she factors in that she’s babysitting lily rose. but she had in no way expected, that gigi would offer to skip the ball to help out. though, in hindsight she shouldn’t be too surprised, they’d been inseparable since rosie joined the circus so it only made sense. coming back from putting Lily rose to bed (and sending all the pictures they’d taken over the night to poppy and hans), rosie flops down on the couch next to gigi. “so, the baby’s asleep, her toys are cleaned up — what’s next in our night of playing house?” @missmagicmoth

[missmagicmoth]

sitting with her legs crossed under her on the couch, gigi scrolled through her phone as she waited for her best friend to put down the baby. though she had offered to help, the redhead was more than content letting rosie handle that part of the night. truthfully she had no clue what stage in sleep training or whatever it was called lily rose would be at - but she had seen enough tv to get the impression that getting a child to sleep could be quite the challenge. but maybe that wasn’t the case, considering rosie was back far quicker than gigi had expected. “i don’t know - you’re the one who grew up in a real house,” she teases as she drops her phone in her lap and grins over at her roommate. “my parents used to practice new routines whenever i went to bed - but we do that all the time, we should do something different tonight.”

[missmagicmoth]

rosiewidow​:

rosie can’t help the small soft smile that touches her face as gigi bounces on her toes, her friend’s excitement infectious. “oooh, sounds like a plan.” she nods, taking gigi’s hand in her own and leading her out their apartment door. “whatcha’ feeling? pizza? burgers?” it’s silly to ask when she’s almost certain gigi is just going to pick whatever she thinks rosie would want to have, but she still tries. “we can even stop at the candy store and pick up some candy, as a little treat.”

as rosie takes her hand, gigi doesn’t hesitate to entangle their fingers as she follows behind. a soft hum escapes her as she thinks over the options. “pizza might be easier to eat if we’re stuck waiting outside for pt to leave, but i’m good with burgers too if you’d rather do that.” truthfully the redhead didn’t care what they ate - all that matters was that they were going to spend a night together. beaming at the thought of getting candy on top of it all too, gigi gave their interlocked hands a squeeze to show her appreciation. “can we get those like gummy fruit slices? and whatever you want too, of course.”

“This is really corny…but you’re already a gift to me.” (Rosie)

sitting on the floor in front of their christmas tree early in the morning with the sun barely even peaking out, gigi shot her best friend a grin. “you’re a gift to me too,” she returns the sentiment, leaning forward to place a quick kiss on rosie’s cheek before setting the small present down in her lap. “but i still had to get you something, silly. now open it!” @rosiewidow

[missmagicmoth]

send 🍪 for our muses to bake cookies. (Rosie)

“got them!” she calls out as she flutters from her bedroom into the living area and kitchen. with a grin, gigi held up two matching aprons to show off to her best friend. she’d bought them months ago, back during a winter sale and she’d kept them stashed away in the back of her closet for this exact moment. “do you want the little penguin or the snowman?” stepping into the kitchen, she looks at all the ingredients already set out before lifting up on her tip toes to see over rosie’s shoulder. “what are we making first?” @rosiewidow

[missmagicmoth]

continued from here.

looking closely at the pictures on guy’s phone, gigi didn’t even notice that his attention changed over towards her until he asks her to share as well. looking up at him with a bright grin, the blonde didn’t hesitate to pull out her own phone. but before she can offer it over to show him the photos an idea occurs to her. one that she hesitates before acting on, wondering if it was smart or might be overstepping whatever kind of boundaries there were between a girl and the guy her best friend was into. “want to come see it in person?” she asks in a bit of a rush, deciding to go for it and just hope it wouldn’t be weird or awkward. “our pictures are cute, but you don’t get to see the real magic unless you’re right there with it.” @guyydiamond​

[missmagicmoth]

rosiewidow​:

when gigi jumps up, obviously on board with the idea rosie can’t help but smile. as far as personalities and interests go they were on complete opposite ends of the spectrum, but there was hardly a time where they didn’t see eye to eye on the things that really mattered. terrorizing the obnoxious men in their lives. though, rosie would hardly classify this as terrorizing, but it would at the very least ruin the rest of P.T.‘s week. “he’s probably drinking at the tavern, lamenting to strangers about how he’s got such great vision but everyone else is holding him back.” she rolls her eyes, taking the jacket gigi hands her. “but even if we have to stake out i’m down, we can grab food and make it a date.”

Giggling a little at how easy it was to picture their boss doing that exact thing, having had seen it before in person, Gigi can’t deny that Rosie’s right. PT likely was drinking his night away complaining about the entirety of the troupe - as if they weren’t the one that kept the place afloat and did practically all of the real work required to run the circus. Sure he may be the one that signs all the papers and writes the checks, but it was all of the performers that did the brunt work of recruitment, advertising, and just maintaining every other aspect of the business. Sliding her arms into her own coat, the blonde bounced on her toes a bit. “We should get food in general. Even if he’s not there we can trash the place then have a nice little meal together and take in all our hard work.”

[missmagicmoth]

rosiewidow​:

“so much better,” rosie nods, not a moment of hesitation in her answer. “gingerbread men are cuties though.” it should be noted that that’s the one thing they’re good for; being adorable. “that sounds perfect.” of course, rosie would literally agree to just about anything gigi wanted, but she actually was excited about trying those sugar snowball things. they looked kind of cute when she watched someone else walk by with them earlier. “pre-made peppermint hot cocoa, or regular hot cocoa and i just steal some candy canes to use as stirrers? there is a wrong answer, so be warned.”

“they really are,” she agreed. “i almost signed up for that gingerbread contest, but didn’t want to leave you for that long.” it meant a lot to gigi that rosie even came to the festival with her in the first place, so it felt wrong to knowingly ditch her to run off and do something else. they were bound to get separated at some point, that much she knew, but it felt different when it was an accident or just for a brief period of time. “oohh regular with candy cane stirrers, duh.” as if that even had to be a question. not only did making peppermint hot chocolate taste better that way - but it was far cuter as well.

[missmagicmoth]

though the circus hadn’t been anywhere near the festival, once the snow started falling twice as hard and the wind picked up it had simply been gigi’s first instinct to head there. mostly to check to make sure the rest of her troupe was inside and safe, but partially because it was were she felt the most at home other than her own apartment. what she didn’t expect was to find a stranger walking by, seeming as if she had no destination in mind. “hey,” she calls out, waving at the girl as she approaches the door to the main building. “are you heading home? or do you need a place to bunk down for a bit?” @omoide-no-mani​

[rosiewidow]

it was no secret that rosie wasn’t the most willing to dive head first into the island’s massive events. spending a ridiculous amount of money on marked up food and trinkets just wasn’t in her immediate plans for a fun night, but the winter festival had always been her least favorite of them all. the cold didn’t suit her at all. but, her desire to see a smile on gigi’s face outweighs how much she hates the chill of winter. “gingerbread tastes like dirt with sugar,” rosie wrinkles her nose at the menu for the food booth they’re standing at. “what kind of cookies do you want?” she looks over at gigi, sure that she’ll just get whatever the blonde wants. @missmagicmoth​

[missmagicmoth]

“Gingersnaps are better,” the blonde agrees eagerly as she too looks over the menu. The decision of which cookies to get resting on her shoulder was slightly daunting - considering Gigi already knew Rosie would likely simply copy her answer - but not one she couldn’t make. After all as far as she was considered there was one type of cookie that was almost impossible to mess up - a classic that you could never go wrong with. “Let’s do a sugar cookie and a snickerdoodle then split them. That sound alright?” In all honesty, Gigi was willing to eat whatever would make her best friend happy, knowing that she was only here for her sake anyway.

[missmagicmoth]

she’d gotten separated from rosie a bit earlier ago, which wasn’t that big of a deal, but with the tree lighting ceremony coming up she needed to find the other girl. it was part of the whole reason they’d come to the festival in the first place, after all. so gigi had been roaming around the streets trying to find her best friend and when she spotted another familiar figure she figured it was a good start to potentially tracking down rosie. “guy!” she called out his name, skipping over towards him with a wide grin. “have you seen rosie lately?” @guyydiamond​
