Then you pick the location and I'll make the time for it. There better be alcohol involved too. Oh? Good to know you still like it.

I think both of my parents would murder me if I ever did that, so no thanks. I could never stoop to that level anyways. As hot as this body is, I couldn't fathom having it out there on the web for people to see for free. And too late, it went to my head already.

I might take any red flag as a reason to swerve on the marriage thing, but I appreciate you keeping it real. You just seem a little off about the wedding thing. I'm good at reading between the lines, so if you ever need to talk and air out any dirty laundry, I'm here. And I was mostly joking about the cheating.

The charm is still there, babe. That's probably the issue so I need to turn it off and maybe they won't fall for it.

[mollysmythe]

Mm, city or beach? You can involve alcohol in either, so I'm personally not picky, although I am leaning slightly more towards somewhere beachy. I would also love a spa treatment outside of the Empire. Lucky really, isn't it? You could've made an enemy so easily.

Fair enough. I wouldn't even want to imagine how my parents would react to something like that either. They're supportive of the Netflix idea, though? Or have you not told them that part yet...

I don't think you needed me to give you any reasons. How do I seem off about it? I think you're reading it very wrong, but I do appreciate the concern. I'm fine, though. My laundry is all good and clean.

I don't know that I've seen it recently, but I'll believe you.

text message 📲 kurt x molly

KURT: Happy July 4th, Molls! KURT: How's your car doing?

@mollysmythe

[mollysmythe]

MOLLY: Happy 4th, Kurt! Apologies I'm a little late. MOLLY: It's working just fine now, thank you. Your dad's clearly a wizard. MOLLY: How did you celebrate yesterday?

[romerutherford]

Yeah, no problem I can definitely do that and thank you for your interest in the class, it's not everyday a boss takes safety courses like this seriously. So ut's nice to see.

[mollysmythe]

No problem - thank you for putting the idea out there. Working in a relatively confined space with guests consistently coming in and out, that kind of thing is important. Have you had much interest otherwise?

[blamazonwrites]

It's a sapphic club/bar. There is a distinct lack of spaces for non straight women to exist with other non straight women. Of course, anyone is welcome so long as they act right, but sapphics are who we cater to.

[mollysmythe]

Okay, the name threw me off a little bit, but I take back my initial sarcasm, that's actually a really interesting idea. You're right, there aren't enough sapphic spaces. I don't necessarily frequent gay bars, but I've found that on the odd time I have, they've been overrun by either gay men and/or straight women just there for the experience.

[matt-schue]

PAST YOUR PRIME!? Hey!! I'm a year older than you and I don't feel anywhere near past my prime?

Do my knees ache at times? Sure.

If I sneeze wrong does my back want to die? Sometimes....

Can I tell a storm's coming because my right knee throbs a little........?

Okay. Fine. But I don't feel it mentally!

Will love any and all kind of help! You gonna dress up? I WANT to go as Sarah from Hocus Pocus but I'll sweat like a pig underneath that costume.

Exactamundo! Throw a whole bottle in there, and you're set!

[mollysmythe]

That's because you're spritely and young at heart, I'm an old jaded lady trapped in the body of a thirty-something. See, I'm the opposite—my body aches and pains are minimal, but mentally I'm ready for retirement.

If dressing up is a requirement, I guess I could. I don't know what as, though. Can I just stick some cat ears on my head and call it a day? You would make an awesome Sarah, but you'd need a Winifred and a Mary to really complete the look.

[matt-schue]

You have such faith in me. It made me weep inside. Why are you devastated?? You and I both know you want to go down that thing just as much as me. Admit it, Molly! ADMIT. ITTTTTT. It'll be this Saturday at 2pm. Throwing in at the city park near the playground so kids can run around and do their thing while their folks chill with burgers and movies. I plan to let it run until 7pm since I need to get to a club afterward.

Sadly no booze. Looked into it and no dice. But if you pour it into a container then who is to know? wink wink

[mollysmythe]

See, that's the thing, I really don't. I never did a slip-n-slide as a kid, and I feel like any grace I might've had on one would've been back then, so I'm past my prime by now. That sounds doable, I can even be free to help you set up if you need a hand?

That's what Stanleys were made for, right?

[san-lopez-deactivated20240808]

I could always use a little time away, but you didn't say you wanted company. I am taking my business seriously, but my family can handle it for a few days, at least I think they can. You used to like me being impossible once upon a time.

I'll try to give you an entertaining show should that beast be unleashed ever again.

Cálmate, babe. I would never go that far. Sex tapes don't go over well for businesses when you don't have Kris Jenner as your momager. But thank you for that boost of confidence. You know I love it when women stroke my ego like this!

See, that's telling me that I should never get married. Thanks for clarifying that for me, M. Wait, is that one of the issues with your marriage? If you're sexually frustrated, you can always cheat. You know women are better lovers anyways.

Not intentionally. I worked with one and then the other lived in my building, so in my defense, they shouldn't have agreed to keep things casual if they knew they couldn't control their emotions.

[mollysmythe]

I get plenty of alone time outside of work, I'd prefer some company, and it's been a while since I've seen you in person. It could be fun. Did I say I didn't like it now?

That's all I ask.

No, I guess not, and I really can't imagine Mrs. Lopez telling you you're doing great, sweetie! while you're right in the middle of the action. I can, however, imagine her murdering you, and I don't think we'd want that, would we? Don't let it go to your head.

Never say never, but you're welcome. I can see how I might've made it sound unappealing. There are no issues with my marriage... Where are you even getting this from? I don't cheat, and I have no intention of it, but I'm glad to see your moral compass is still well in check.

Fair. You did have a certain irresistible charm once upon a time, I guess they saw that.

[ethanmontgomery]

Ethan: I could never hate you. Ethan: That would be it. Consider this as me asking. Ethan: Every bag and suitcase is unpacked. Even survived being dragged to a charity event by mother dearest, so it's safe to say I've settled in okay.

[mollysmythe]

Molly: Well, that makes me feel special. Molly: Oh wow, I bet that was thrilling... How many fake rich people laughs did you count?

[finnhdson]

Okay, guys, I'm officially posting this to see if you guys have any fun summer activity ideas for a high school teacher trying to live it up for a couple months before heading back to the grind. Don't get me wrong, I feel like I've been doing pretty well keeping myself entertained so far! But I've also only got so many of my own ideas and it's only a matter of time before I run out of 'em, so... help a guy out?

[mollysmythe]

What I wouldn't give for an entire summer off work... I'm assuming simply sleeping and getting constant spa treatments sounds boring to you? That would be my personal idea of summer heaven. Maybe a small vacation?

[hadleyberry]

Alright, so I'm sure it's not news that the first house I looked at a few months ago was not the great deal that I'd been hoping for. But a couple more houses later and with the help of my dads and an awesome friend who made sure that I was doing the best with my mortgage and all that legal stuff, I am officially a home owner! Actually, this all became official like a few weeks ago and with the help of many more friends and family, I'm all moved in and set up! So now I'm trying to decide if I should host a summer BBQ or just a small get together with a few close friends. Either way, it's totally gonna have some sort of fun theme!

[mollysmythe]

Congratulations—homeownership is very exciting, and far more rewarding than renting, as long as you have no major hiccups that you usually would've had your landlord fix. Did Santana have anything to do with finding your house, by any chance? Be careful if so, you might find yourself on Netflix soon.

[leftmyhartontheice]

I'm sorry, Molly. If I hadn't been so busy this week I would have seen this sooner and picked you up. I know my help is beyond needed now, but did you get your car back at least? I think we're due for a catch up soon, if you're free.

[mollysmythe]

Don't worry about it, you know I understand busy just as well as the next person. I appreciate it regardless. I did get it back, it turned out only to be a minor issue, but it was still inconvenient. I'm never free, but for you I can make myself free if you have a date and time in mind?

[robbie-clarington]

Oh man, I know that pain well. It's always at the worst time, too. What's wrong with it? And I'm always happy to help, if need be. My mornings are usually pretty quiet until 11 or so.

[mollysmythe]

They do have a knack for knowing exactly the wrong time to break down, don't they? I actually managed to find a ride, but thank you. I really appreciate it. I wouldn't have wanted to take up your only quiet time, anyway. Sounds like you're a busy man.

[san-lopez-deactivated20240808]

Oh, right. You do need a little getaway then, so you should take one soon. I don't buy that, but I'll let it slide. For now.

Yes! You should not be supporting Snix and her behavior.

See, you do know me after all. If I want it to happen, I'll make it happen. And you're not wrong. I hate the Kardashians, and I will never understand why Kim's weak ass scripted sex tape made them famous, but people are still obsessed with them so the drama does reel people in. I could craft some mess like that here somehow.

I'm honest. My issue is that I'm concerned that I'll marry someone and then the sex will be mediocre at best, or we'll be too busy for it altogether, and then I'm gonna regret being married. Staying single has just been better. There were a few someones. Only two lasted more than a month, but then they fell in love and I didn't. I don't need that drama again.

[mollysmythe]

You're not offering to come with me? Wow, you must be taking this new business venture seriously. You're impossible. Yes, let it go.

And yet here I am, ever the sadist. As long as it isn't directed at me, it's always pretty thrilling.

It's cute that you thought I didn't know you. I've never seen Kim's sex tape, but considering you just called it "weak ass" and "scripted", I'm gonna have to advise you not to do the same thing. You can become successful on your own merit. You're already getting there. I think it was always in the cards for you, in fact.

Although I'm not sure that's the best reason to not want to get married, I can confirm as someone who is that sex becomes less of a priority a couple of years in. When you know it's there if you want it, it becomes less urgent. I'm told that's not unique to me and my husband, by the way, so don't read into it.

You let someone close enough to fall in love with you? Two of them? Jesus. New York really did change you.

[maeveflynnabrams]

Private:

I wasn't ready to deal with people, okay? My da and his wife were bad enough. Figured I'd give myself time to settle before I announced my return. And I'll take you up on those drinks, and we'll see about the talking.

[mollysmythe]

— private.

Okay, fine. I'm sorry for lashing out, I think it was just a shock, that's all. You're the priority here. Tonight?

[romerutherford]

That sounds like something the fire department would potentially be interested in. Let me talk to my supervisor's and see what they would suggest. Or, I can give you their information and you can make your interest in the course known.

[mollysmythe]

That makes sense, yes. Speak to them for me, then if you don't mind passing on my details, that would be very helpful. My business number is [###].

[blamazonwrites]

That depends. It can be regal or ratchet, Babes is an experience, and that experience can be chill or wild. It can cater to those on a budget or those with no budget. So the atmosphere depends on what you want out of your night.

[mollysmythe]

Sounds versatile. So what actually is Babes? You know, aside from all of the above. In plain terms, what is it?

[san-lopez-deactivated20240808]

You need a little getaway already? Are you sure everything's okay, Molls?

That's a little better. I like to think that she's matured since I have, but then again, she's unhinged so she probably hasn't. We'll see if she comes out, I guess.

You know me well enough to know that I don't care about the legal shit. If all else fails, I'll blur out people's faces and then only the people in Bearcreek will know their real identities. Problem solved. I would've loved to been on the inside of that drama. it was messy as hell, but made for good tv. My show would be just as messy, let's be real. That's what the people want though, right?

Are you speaking another language? What are feelings? And why would someone mix that with sex? No attachments sex is top tier. And I don't want anyone else in my house or getting mail there. What if I need me time and want the whole place to myself? Can't do that when they're legally allowed to be there. Nobody is brave enough to jump through all of my hoops, and let's keep it that way.

[mollysmythe]

What do you mean "already"? The joys of Bearcreek might still be new to you, but I've been stuck here for years. I told you, Santana, I'm fine. I could just use a break from work, that's all.

Is it bad that I'm kind of excited to see..?

That sounds more like something you'd do. There will always be loopholes, and if anyone's going to find them, it's going to be you. Of course people want messy. Two things people love to watch: drama and things they can't afford. That's why the Kardashians do so well, everyone hates them but still wants what they have. So this is your path to fame, then? I knew you'd get there someday.

You're ridiculous. I have to agree, no attachments sex is pretty great. Obviously I'm a little past that now, but people who say they don't enjoy it are lying. So even in New York, there was no one?
