Gotta Get Up and Try

The Boy Chin Wonder | 16 | Silent Phantoms ❝ Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain... To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices - today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it. ❞ - Kevyn Aucoin

Who are you suppose to be?

[negacorey]

Is that a general question or do you have a specific person you're approaching, because I don't want to respond and then be told you weren't talking to me. That's pretty much the worst feeling.

As Luke's pace slowed to get closer to Corey, his eyes shifted down the boy's face to see the smile forming. Corey needed to relax; everything was going smoothly. At least, Luke's face dictated that; and the use of his deep tone was certainly making the mood lighter. He contemplated a correct response, having only a few guesses on what he could possibly be alluding to. Deciding on something, he gave himself a little nod before nudging slightly into the Luke's forearm. "Macaroni and cheese?" he offered, looking pleased with himself. When in doubt, always change the subject to food, he thought. "Feed Corey some macaroni and cheese and your future will be ultra bright. Might even expect something sweet."

Poor dollface, I think I have a remedy for that. 

Sorry to disappoint ya hun. You’re just a special case love. One I plan on figuring out, hopefully. Then again I could just let Isabeau or Mama take a look at you. Ohhh~ look at you the flatter, thanks for the compliment darling. I try not the be as irritating, but then again if people happen to piss me off… well I just can’t control my mouth. 

[negacorey]

I'm all for suggestions.

I don't really know who either of those people are, but I guess if that's what's best, then so be it. I'm not gonna get like probed or anything like that, am I? Don't sweat it. When you're pissed, being irritable is pretty much expected.

[mentalist-supreme]

I’m sure it is through the roof. 

Very good hun. Very. I’ll fix that… 

You know the two curly heads over there, right? They are have a couples arguments. Anyway moving on right now; your house captain is pretty salty over the fact that Mica thinks you’re a cutiee pie. And he is debating the fact of letting Cree eat you or blowing you up. Then again he knows he is over reacting. 

Mica on the other hand is having a meltdown because as much as she hates the brute, she really likes him on a subconscious level. And to be honest she is mad at the fact that he acts like he likes her. Being that she is a ‘difficult’ person she knows most people don’t look at her in that light; plus at one time he had a thing for me. She is still salty about that. 

When in actuality both are very stubborn-headed and like each other to the point they make me sick.

[negacorey]

More like a dangling ceiling fan. I've gotta go into academic detox or something.

I was going to say that could've been a good guesstimation but it was a little too detailed for it to just be a coincidence. You're basically young Charles Xavier, only more attractive and significantly less irritating.

[mentalist-supreme]

You can be my star pupil. I promise~ 

No lies sweetheart, literally I can read people’s mind. Granted you are a special case. You’re like Isabeau and Azami… hmm I’ll have to take you to them one day. I’m guessing from that face you made you don’t believe me; do you? I’ll just have to prove it you.. 

[negacorey]

Tell that to my GPA.

I don't know who either of those people are but from the tone, I'm guessing it's a good thing that I've got similarities? It's not that I don't believe you, I'll just know concretely that it's legit when I see it in action. Have anyone in mind? Wow; terribly timed pun.

[mentalist-supreme]

Oh I’m sure I can be your personal tutor; I got you dollface. 

Ha, cute. She was little to far stretched. I’m just read the mind, nothing that special. Hmmm. I can try.. 

Wow.. well look at there. I can’t read you.. damn. 

You just made me like you a little more. 

[negacorey]

I like the sound of that, actually.

Are you sure you're not just messing with me? I don't mean that as an insult or anything like that, but I have been tricked like this before. It happened yesterday, in fact.

[mentalist-supreme]

Oh I’m sure I can teach you. Just keep up. You got that right— trust and believe that hun. I just need to know the pace. 

I’m sure you do.. after all you’re here. I’m blunt, sassy, abrasiveness telepathy. 

[negacorey]

I'd be more than happy to show you the pace I learn at sometime.

Seriously? If that's true, you're a regular Jean Grey. What am I thinking right now?

Mostly Innocent Drinks - Luke - Corey

Luke began walking with a smirk on his face, hoping the other would follow him. In truth he wasn’t exactly sure where he was going, he had no idea where anybody else kept their liquor so it looked like he was going to risk looking outwardly forward by taking them back to his room. It wasn’t that he was trying to be cheeky he was just set in his ways, that and his place was going to be way more comfortable to him. “You keeping up chin wonder?” He finally looked over his shoulder at the other, biting his lip in a playful manner as he spun on his heels and began walking backwards. “’Cause if you’re having any trouble I could probably slow down for you, but you have to put that in the book. I don’t want Ryker, or whatever his name is, to sound like an ass.”

The Holder let out a soft chuckle as he looked Corey over, not caring if he was seen, before turning back around to see where he was going. “You know, I should probably ask what it is you like drinking. I’d hate for this to turn into some shitty not-a-date-first-date where I just keep making you drink something you hate. So just what is your poison? Do you like it sweet, sour, dark, handsome, and strong?”

[negacorey]

As eyes scanned down his form, Corey felt himself shrink in his clothes. He talked a nice game, sure, but these kind of interactions only happened in the movies he watched. He had no experience of being hit on, so he just gave a casual wink in response just before the turn. "Hmm...if we're doing this not-a-date-first-date thing, I would prefer it be a tall glass of dark, perfectly aged wine but I'm pretty sure I can find two of those qualities in a certain someone. If you've got it, I'll settle for some kinky...the drink that is."

[mentalist-supreme]

Stop lying boy.

Well I guess if you get off beat; I can always help you get back on beat. 

Looks, sass, intelligence and that chin. You better stop before things get out of control. 

What power do you have I wonder… 

[negacorey]

That assistance will be much needed. I'm forewarning you. No, I'm pretty sure you'd make sure everything would be in complete control.

I'm not even sure I have one. I was brought here 'for my own protection'. Nothing more. Witness protection maybe. What about you?

[lukelynnfield]

I was thinking more like destroying it completely but bending it does sound more impressive, and I’m sure the grands would rather see me as the all powerful one of legends so we should probably just stick with that. Sorry, no can do. I’d rather just see you make a move without having any kind of help from me. Corey Ambrosia huh? It’s nice to meet you, especially if I’m going to be resembling the lead of your paranormal romance novel… and I will be the lead— about that drink… should we do that now or just keep talking about it?

[negacorey]

After seeing a girl fly off last night, I'm not even gonna doubt you could actually do that; and, I'm sure you'll be a big hit with the little ones, oh great bender of stone. I bet you would, but giving you the satisfaction of me making the unexpected first move would be an ego boost I'm not too sure I want to so easily hand you. The feeling's mutual, I assure you. No worries on the copyright infringement though, I'll definitely be sure to credit you when I'm famous. Now sounds great. Lead the way, cheekbones.

[mentalist-supreme]

Oh dollface; I know you can professional when you want to be hun. I’m sure you can put a hurtin on someone. 

You can have it… this time. So tell me Corey are you always just sweet? Or are just putting on charm at a new school? 

[negacorey]

I wish. I've got serious white kid syndrome. It's difficult for me to even do the two-step sometimes.

I've been sweet since birth actually, that's why my last name is Ambrosia.

[lukelynnfield]

Sway my percentages? i’m not sure, they’re pretty set in stone but I’ll see what I can do. If you think I’m charming now you should see me when I’m actually trying. It’s Luke by the way, Luke Lynnfield, but if you’re going to be writing about me in your diary I think it’s only fair if I know you’re name too… so I can tell people whose diary I managed to make it into. That way I can be the dark, brooding figure that gets to brag about the cute, maybe handsome kid writing about me. I don’t need to worry about you turning this into some kind of book do I?

[negacorey]

A guy's gonna bend stone for me during our first encounter; this is a story for the grandchildren. Oh? Do try next time so I can gauge about how much time I should take before making a move, Luke. I suppose it's common courtesy to respond to that in kind so, the name's Corey Ambrosia, future award-winning paranormal romance novelist with a character named Ryker who may or may not strike a shocking resemblance to a guy who's just invited me for a drink.

[mentalist-supreme]

And much more to come with it, that is if you can keep up hun. 

You could… but since you a doll, I won’t make you~

[negacorey]

I think I should just leave the dancing to the professional.

I'm extremely grateful for your mercy.

[onlyjoshhutcherson-blog]

[mentalist-supreme]

Cali, cali make them girls sang. I wonder what is does for the boys. 

Remember I warned you. Setting out on the dance floor she heard the beat drop and smiled softly body she flowed with the music.

[negacorey]

That was unexpected--and most definitely appreciated.

I guess I'll have to put my foot in my mouth now, huh?

[lukelynnfield]

Technically it’s a 50-50 percent yes or no but whatever. See, you sound like you’re trying to convince me not to want to get you drunk but something about you setting a small fire that caused that much trouble just sounds entertaining. Plus, I never said I’d actually let you wreck havoc on a forest did I? I can actually control myself.

[negacorey]

Would you consider swaying those percentages just a little bit for me? You're stubbornly charming, new guy; you've whittled me down. I'll have a drink with you on one condition: you tell me your name. I can't write in my diary about how this dark, brooding figure convinces me to have a drink with him without at least sharing that tiny detail.

[lukelynnfield]

Fine, I might share. Might. Well, I was going to just say we start with something simple like a beer but now you’ve put that image in my head and I’m sorry, but I now kinda want to see you drunk so…

[negacorey]

Might is close to a yes so I'm gonna take it. I can promise you that's not exactly a good idea. Last time I was drunk, I kind of set off a little fire--that spread across the majority of the Santa Ana forest. But if you're adamant...what the hell?
