Tony squints a bit at the girl beside her speaking. The story wasn’t too elaborate but it was missing quite of details that would help her form an actual opinion. “Motel?” She questions while the other speaks, taking a sip of the drink in front of her before looking around the bar trying to see if she can spot the two people. “I think that those are both some shit options. I mean free beer is hardly flirting. i mean, do you even want to fuck them?”

“Yeah, motel,” Monet laughed, raising her drink in the air as if to toast her sad state of affairs.  “I’m new here, I haven’t really established myself or nothin’ yet,” she explained, shrugging her shoulders and taking a gulp from her glass.  “No, I really don’t want to go home with either of them.  They could be murderers, or somethin’.  Plus they just bought me drinks, they really haven’t tried talkin’ to me about myself or nothin’.  I don’t even really know who they are!”  She laughed again anyway, smiling at the woman.  “Nobody really tries flirtin’ with me, I don’t think.  Not that I need any flirtin’, anyway.”

[ohnotony]

“I’ve had my fair share of motel stays so I get it. I haven’t been to a motel that didn’t have itchy sheets,” she remarks before flashing the girl a smile. “You going to be here for long? I mean I don’t think you can set up shop at a motel,” Tony takes a sip from her drink. “They also don’t have to be like murders, they also could be just really really gross,” she points before shaking her head a bit. “People have been buying you drinks all night? I don’t think you would know what flirty was, even if it came and hit you on the head.”

[sagetheswede]

“Okay so here’s the thing, I kinda got people to buy me drinks all night so far, and it’s workin’ pretty well and all, but…” she trailed off, looking around and then leaning closer to the person she was talking to so she could lower her volume.  “Two of them have asked me to go home with them, and I’m not sure I can say no.  Like, it feels wrong, because they were so kind and bought me drinks.”  She sighed, shaking her head and sipping on her drink some more.  “On the one hand, I’m sick of sleepin’ in the motel, y’know?  But on the other, which one do I even agree to go home with?  And how do I know they ain’t gonna murder me?”  Monet looked at the other, her brow furrowing.  “It’s nice a’them to wanna sleep with me, I think.  I mean, that’s flatterin’ and all.  What do you think?”

“oh.” ezra smiled, biting back the grin that was threatening to split his face. “eh, well, hair doesn’t naturally stand but for the muscle, it’s purely there for the betterment of myself. rather be ripped than angry.” he explained with a shrug. he truly didn’t intentionally start working out to look a certain way, it just helped at a time when he was getting into a lot of shit. “i like you.” he mindlessly smiled at the brunette, “mind saving the nap and spending a little time with me? it’s rare that i actually find people i enjoy in crownsville…i want to…keep you close.”

“so you hit the gym instead of hitting walls? i can get into a bit of that. i should try and learn from you, i’m not toned just aggressive. ” tony muses for moment with a slight laugh. she tilts her head at the other confession, “you are really funny, i’ll give you that, okay i’ll pause on my beauty rest to spend all little time with you. i doubt you are from here though, you are a very.. distinctive personalty.” she tucks her hair behind her ear pausing the other for a moment, “so do who i do i owe the pleasure?”

“I’m pretty sure at least three cheetah’s had to die for this outfit.” She teased, pulling the fabric of her crop top out from her chest, snapping it against her skin when she let it go. “I look like Scary Spice. Why did we ever think this was a good look?” She asked the person next to her.

[ohnotony]

“I love scary spice, she’s totally the best spice girl. She is like that girl in the group, ya know? But, there is a humanitarian argument somewhere in there.” ” she says looking at the other’s clothing. “You look really good. I mean the 90s isn’t a bad decade to have. I was born in the era of matte blue eye shadow that you applied with a brush the size of a dime.’

“a twunk? what the hell is that?” he laughed, running his wet tongue over his dry lips. “i’m good, it takes little effort in being this beautiful. i do have recommendations though, there’s this place on madison amazing! i’ve only gotten massages but just from their massages i’m sure the spa stuff is amazing.”

“twunk is like a twink but with muscles; twink and hunk mixed together?” tony says with a slight upward influx unsure about her combination of the word. “little effort you say? so that’s organic muscle mass and the haircut is product free? i think you might want to start teaching a class, people would pay good money for that; dolla make ya dolla right?” she jokes before shaking her head. “i’ll try to check it out, after my according to you, much needed nap.”

“uh, thanks?” harrison couldn’t tell if the woman was complimenting him or not, shrugging at her words. “i dunno why it matters if i owned it already or not as long as it fits the theme, right? and it does.” 

“I meant it in a good way,” she reassures before shaking her head for a moment. “I’m sorry,” Tony raises her hands in fake defensiveness. “I usually just some that most people buried all off the 80s fashion like I did, but then again I was pretty much a baby in the 80s..” Tony places her hand out like an olive branch, “ Wasn’t trying to shade you or anything, I’m Tony.”

Tony seemly just appears from the far side of the bar, obviously banking on some of the nips that she hid in her shoe. She is in high sprites feeling some what generous and euphoric for dancing and taking more shots than she should have. The young woman takes her seat at the bar, tucking her hair behind her ears before speaking to the other beside her. “That’s a pretty wicked, get up but something tells me that was already hanging in your closet.”

[ezra-baldwin]

“not to be that person but you’re looking pretty tough right now. i’m not sure if you looked in the mirror before leaving your house but…” ezra trailed taking a deep breath as he looked up at the other person, “you should really consider a spa day or something, it’ll help with all of that.” he gestured towards the person.

[ohnotony]

“Apparently today is that I’m going to my shit roasted by a twunk..” Tony turns around to pretend to look behind her almost in disbelief. “I actually really itching to go to spa, maybe you can recommend me one; in fact we can go together.” She suggests with a slight laugh, “your treat, right?”

“ Long day as in it’s been busy at work, so I am glad it’s over!” He replied as he looked at her smiling. “So do you think I am forgiven?” He questions as he looks at her.

“What do you do? Are you firefighter/astronaut/cowboy?” She questions with a  smile. “Or did seven year old me just make that up?’ Tony pretending to be thinking, “I have decided to forgive you but you have to be nice to me.”

Mackenzie wasn’t about say two of his closest friends weren’t talking to him at the moment, that would mean he’d have to admit to being at fault.  “ Nothing it’s just been a long day!” He replied looking at her

“A long day?” She questions for a moment before pulling a piece of hair behind her ear with a slight smile. “Long day as in work? or long day as in shoot me right now?” Tony remarks before pointing herself. “I had the first one,” she jokes.

Wandering around while lost in thought was an unfortunately frequent event in Tony’s life. It is even more frequent for Tony to loose herself in a run, more often than not she was thinking of song lyrics, or papers to grade, or her friends, or a million other things that flitted through her mind, like the new carton of ice cream she had in her freezer. So it should have come as no surprise when her toes caught the edge of a loose chunk of sidewalk, sending her stumbling forward and into another person with a muffled ‘oof’. Jerking herself upright, she took a step back mumbling an apology while pushing her curls out of her face. “oh i’m so sorry, i’m kind of a fucking idiot” she mused with a hint of humor in her voice, looking up to see which unfortunate soul had had the misfortune to encounter her today.

Mackenzie looked at the other “ Would you stop looking at me like that? You’re putting me off my food, if you want to sit down then sit down but the way you are looking at me now is very off-putting!” 

[ohnotony]

“I was just waiting for my invitations and all,” She remarks before rolling her eyes. “Wow, you seem pleasant, I would like to just to put out that I wasn’t looking at you anyway; this is just how my face looks.” Tony takes a sit across from the other, “what’s up?”

“You know, I might just be mistaking you for someone else…” Davina turned more towards the other, looking at her. “I’m Davina,” she smiled, extending a hand. “Pleasure to meet you.”

“Ha, it’s fine. I get confused with super models all the time and apparently so do you,” she comments before taking the other’s hand. “It’s a pleasure to meet you too. What do I owe the pleasure of a drinking partner?”

“You’ve got this, Tony! I believe in you!” Kelsey encouraged with her own wide grin. “C’mon, you can’t flash that smile at me. My gay heart is going to explode! So not fair.” Kelsey’s eyes widened at the remark, for a split second worrying that she had offended the other woman with her painting. “Oh!” Kelsey dissolved into nervous laughter. “God. First you make my gay heart explode with that smile, then you nearly give me a heart attack by thinking you didn’t like it. You’re gonna be the death of me, Tony.” She wiped a hand across her forehead which only smeared more paint. “I’m glad you like it.”

“You should never believe in me!” She exclaims covering her face for a moment with a laugh. “You are really just filling my head up with gas right now.” The woman uncovers her face, clearly blushing. “I was trying to keep you in suspense, it’s a lot more to tease you that way,” Tony says in a sing-songy tone. “You made me look beautiful,” she remarks staring over the piece. “Why wouldn’t I like it? I like everything you make.”

Davina all but shuffled her way to the nearest, empty bar seat. She was tired of being on her feet any longer, and all she really wanted was a relaxing bath and a foot massage, but she was all alone–so wine it was. She ordered herself a glass of red wine, honestly not too pressed about what exactly it was. Davina checked her phone briefly, scouring through her unanswered texts before shutting her phone off. She just couldn’t deal with it right now. After her fifteen hour shift, she truly wanted to just shut her brain off for a while. Maybe she should’ve gone home instead. “Oh-” she spoke, shifting over a little as someone came and took the seat next to her. “Hey, fancy seeing you here,” she continued, realizing the other looked familiar.

[ohnotony]

Tony places her cup down to fully face the other with a beaming smile appearing on her lips. She searches the other face for a moment, trying to find a point of familiarity; the young woman even squints for a moment before she speaks. “Do we know each other? If we do, I’m so sorry. I’ve got some real shit memory... but if we don’t we can get to know each other. I’m Tony and I like hard liquor.”
