Out in the wild Party in nowhere land We start a fire s p a r k l e r s in every hand No phones, let go Cut all the strings tonight Singin' aloud, howlin' right at the moon We're making out L i f e's never felt so good Bring on the storm We're wilin' out tonight

“No, the stool is for you. It’s not for me. I was saying that I thought you’d like to be sitting down while I’m drawing you and the scenery behind you.”

“Fuck -- what is my head. Can I take some snacks too? I mean, how long exactly does this model gig takes?”

[ofaugust2]

oliviawlowell:

“Mhmm, and a little bit. I just figure you’d rather be sitting down while I’m doing the drawing than standing.”

“Wait -- the stool is for you? I thought I was supposed to be the model, not your assistant.”

“I might need to live with a dull life. We might not be in the same city next year, and then I might just go back to my normal scheduled dull life. That.. Is a more valid point. Mike was cool, although I think I appreciate him more now than I did before. Because when I was younger, I wanted Joey to be a thing. Now I wish Rachel and Joey got more a shot than they did. I wanted to like it, and I tried to, I just failed in that mission. But most people failed in liking it, so it’s not so bad. I think they should give people realistic endings.” 

“Or we could be in the same city. You’re still applying for MIT, right? We could both get in. And then it’s college life with me, and that can never be dull. Joey and Phoebe would never work though, they wold be too much of a mess. And you can’t take Rachel from Ross, they tried, but it’s just not possible. They should have given Joey some love though. Realistic endings don’t sell as many tickets, people want to be lied to when they go see a movie.”

“I know— politicians always doing something crazy, aren’t they?” she pursed her lips and nodded, “i know right? like what about that job screams happiness. –sure, it’s the highest power but it’s so annoying. having to deal with so many people telling you what you should and shouldn’t do. i’d flip someone off now if they said anything let alone the shit president goes through.”

“What does it say about politicians’ kid though?” he asked, pointing at the older girl. “I would probably get us into some war over who has the best pizza Italy or America. That would be fun, or the best beer. I would be the best president, obviously.”

“Neither do i– and my parents are. it’s just there’s so many lies, it’s hard to believe anything. i mean, my parents don’t really mind all that much. one of my closest friends hates my dad, so… honestly they know not everyone’s gonna like them so they don’t get all cray if you don’t. –or at least that’s what i think,” she clarified. she watched him and put her hands out for the guitar, “how do i even hold it?”

“You gotta trust them as parents though, right? Otherwise things must be incredibly awkward during dinners if you can’t trust them to pass the salt and not the sugar when you ask for it,” he rambled on, speaking with both words and gestures.  “Just like this. Your left hand is in charge of the chords, and your right the rhythm.”

“That’s a little harsh, my life has tons of meaning without you. It’d probably just be a little more dull. I’m not such a big fan of her’s, now it’s a different point. You need to like the characters to become attached to a show, not just how they look. Because they could be the hottest person on earth, but if they were dull, you’d want to switch the program off. I feel the same way, they should have just let his character end with Friends, because that show was just awful. I think that one actually includes the ‘com’ part, most of them seem to forget they’re supposed to be funny too.” 

“Fine, but would you want a dull life? I know I wouldn’t want that for you. But they’re secondary characters, I don’t need to get attached to them. Actually it’s better if I don’t because sooner or later they’re going to leave. I was already plenty attached to the core six, and Mike. Mike was cool too. I tried to give it a chance, but it was so bad I couldn't do it. Not even for Joey. They just want to give people a fairy tale ending.”

“I know, but my family is fucked up. we don’t do the most logical shit all the time,” she joked, though she was being quite serious. her family was fucked up beyond belief, but that part was always kept a secret. she laughed and rolled her eyes at his statement. “what can i say? i’m selfish and i don’t want my dad aging ten times faster. black don’t crack unless you become president.”

“They are politicians, so you can’t really blame them,” he shrugged, following her lead with the joke. Then again, he doubted they were the only family to be illogical around the neighborhood. “I don’t get how someone would even want to be president. It sounds like way too much responsibility and a lifetime of worries,” he shook his head.

zckiych:

“I know, i know, but everyone knows who my family is and it’s easier to trust me. i mean, just look at the bush family. we’re like the black and not as important version of them.” she explained and shrugged. “no– let’s just play it because if i hear it and not like it you’re gonna have to find a different song.”

“Ever since I started watching House of Cards I can’t trust any politician. Don’t tell your parents that though, please, I still want them to like me. But maybe by the time you start your career and I’m actually able to vote I will trust you,” he said with a cheeky grin. “Fine, fine, So you go like this,” he said placing her fingers at the right place. “And you will strum like this,” he added showing himself.

“We don’t go together all the time– like sometimes people are running like, this time it was me. other times people are just flying in or they weren’t planning on going. i mean, i’m probably gonna leave an hour or so before it ends.” she told him, groaning at the idea of either of her parents running for president. “please– i really don’t want to deal with that. i hate talking to strangers as it is.” the brunette explained, “she’s the reason i don’t get drunk here.”

“It just makes things easier because you get done with the formalities as soon as you arrive,” he shrugged. “Yeah, I’m not going to wait until this is over. That would be a waste of a perfectly fine Friday night, and those only come once a week, you know.” He just needed to get some more food in him before thinking about making a stealth retreat. “Don’t be selfish, Zak. Maybe they’re what the country needs.” he chucked.

“Uh huh sure you were. Glad you think so. How about we meet down the end of my street? The trail is close to there. Think you can bring a stool to sit on? I’d offer to bring it but I already have my art supplies to carry. We can also get pizza afterwards.”

“A stool? This is going to be professional, isn’t it? I will see what I can do about that.”

HER FOCUS was somewhere else as august spoke. she was half listening and half letting her mind day dream just as always. “hmm ??”, she began. “oh yeah, i know right… food is good.” she turned her focus all towards august when he mentioned a hulk mask. her eyes narrowed as she attempted to understand his words. “you’re such a fucking nerd.”, she chuckled. “in my opinion, these gala things are just a waste of time and money.”

August stopped talking and just shook his head. It was clear that over ninety percent of what he was saying was going to waste -- Rosie might have been standing right next to him, but her mind wasn’t. “Oh, so when it’s to make fun of my hobbies -- that by the way are very cool, thank you very much -- you pay attention. You are the best, Rosie,” he rolled his eyes sarcastically. But of course he hadn’t taken it to heart. “I hear that. But if it’s up to me no money spent in food will go to waste,” he agreed. “Where’s you head anyway?”

        “soooo—-guess who nailed their audition and landed a lead role for a new netflix show?? THIS GUY.”

“That’s awesome, man! Congratulations. What’s the show about?”

i’ll be on as soon as i’m done with this episode of the oc!

“I was thinking about leaving but i have yet to see my dad and i don’t need him calling me asking me where am i if i leave right now. i’m waiting for him to show is face, take a few pics with the fam and then sneak out the back door.” she explained, laughing at his plan. “oh please, i’m tired of hearing hammond. i’d love if there was someone new everyone was obsessed with.” she was smiled and all, but she really was tired of her family’s name always being mentioned. “oh, i don’t. that shit was priceless– did she come this year or they uninvited her after that? i need someone to make this event eventful.”

“That’s why you should always arrive together, Zak. Learn from the master. Arrive together, get done with whatever pics you need and then you’re free,” he explained as if it was the only logical thing to do. “Wait until one of your parents run for president,” he chuckled. He was glad his father wasn’t the one in the news as much as hers. “I don’t think she did. I haven’t even seen her around since that happened. Maybe she’s still dealing with the shame.”

“If you’re still here next year for the masquerade, you can always break out the hulk mask then? You’d just need to send me the pictures.” She joked, nudging him slightly. Laughing at his words, she put on her thoughtful face, looking up at the ceiling. “But at least I’d get a good story out of it? It’d be one of the few cool things I’ve done. Maybe I could even sell the story. It’d be a great plan.” She nodded, fighting to keep the smirk of her face. “You know, I’d normally be more than happy to give shit to people for you, but I like your sister. So I think it might need to be a pass this time.” 

“I could even bring the Hulk smash hands. -- You know, I hadn’t even thought about that. This might be our last masquerade here.” He furrowed his brow at the thought, time was passing way too fast. “When you put it like that it makes me want to help you with this. I could be behind the scenes filming everything -- documentary style,” he proposed with a playful grin. “What the fuck. I’m your best friend, Lys, not her. You should take my side in everything. Where is the loyalty?”

“I think any holiday is a fucking climax around here. christmas is just as crazy, i’m just praying i don’t have to go the the new years ball because i need to go to a club and act like a normal person.” she somewhat whined, just wanting to get drunk rather than try to act as proper as she knew she wasn’t. she chuckled at him, shaking her head but also agreeing with him. “i would love to see everyone’s face and all the bullshit whispering. i think next year all the children just show up to this shit like it’s a joke. –no, the most interesting thing was at last years. remember, who’s mother got like completely shitfaced and had a meltdown?”

“You know, we can always sneak out of this thing. We’ve been seen and we’ve talked to people, now we can just become ninjas and leave with a bottle or two of vodka and have a proper party with people who aren’t a decade away from nursing homes,” he suggested mischievously. “I would be the talk of Hartcroft for the whole week -- and my dream would finally come true,” he joked, not meaning any of those words. The last thing he wanted was all those people talking about him. “That was Mrs. Cooper, and it was amazing. I mean, I feel bad for her -- super bad,” he chuckled.
