Sorry 'bout all the noise! It's coming from 191A Kew Street!
Hi there! My name's Rayna Quinn. I'm a robotics engineer,
Although my friends hate me, (no they don't) they still follow me around throughout my stupid adventures, so maybe there's something to say about that.
You can ask me anything you would like. I'd love to hear it!
My friends have blogs too!

C: I wanted to invite you (and Rayna + William!) to a movie night our crew has organized! Obviously get your favourite snacks and pyjamas, it's hosted at our house :D
C: You can also choose a movie and we'll add it to a little jar (with everyone else's suggestions) and see who comes out first. I'm feeling this is a bit of an informal invitation ...
C: We'll do it tomorrow, since it's a weekend, and Elis is around. Hope to see you there :D

Hey, Carter! I'm not doing too bad, hope you're doing well too 👀
A movie night with your friends... and us? You want us there?
Well I can't say no to that, sounds so fun - I would love to come 'round! A cozy movie night - I've always loved those 👏 I'll be putting all nine of the predator movies into that jar 🙈
What do you think, @william-not-lewis @quinnless-rayna , can we go? Please?
Oh my gosh, yes, we're there! This sounds so fun - I can't pass down the chance to watch a Doctor Strange movie 👀 we could turn it into a sleepover!! I'll be bringing ALL the snacks I can carry 😼
Thank you SO much for thinking of us Carter!
please can you go, just this once @william-not-lewis ? 💞💓
I have scheduled these words to be posted on Valentine's Day. It is exactly a week before that date, but I felt the need to write this down now, just in case the words escaped me.
I've never been the greatest poet in the world, but sometimes I have days where I fall in love with you all over again, and it feels just like it did in secondary school, only better now, knowing that you love me too.
Today was one of those days. I was sitting and watching you sketch out one of your blueprints that you love doing so much, and the sight enraptured me. You constantly remind me of all the things I love about you. How I love your quirks and your hobbies. I love your passion.
I love waking up beside you in the morning, it is life's greatest privilege. I didn't think a married man could fall in love with his wife over and over again like this, but it has become apparent to me that this is quite natural.
Only because I admire everything that you do. Everything around us has always seemed stupid to me. Plainly obvious and boring. I'm not sure if that's merely me being pedantic, but that's how it has always felt.
But you are none of those things. A few years ago I was embarrassed of telling anyone that I loved them - even my own family never heard the words leave my lips.
But I want the entire population to know that I love you. I haven't any shame in my admiration for you. I'm infatuated and captivated with you and your genius mind.
I love to hold you and kiss you and be around you. I adore the feeling of your fingers running through my hair. I only admit it because I feel and hope that it is obvious how much I adore you. You're so beautiful in a way that I can never explain. Every conversation I have with you makes me think deeper than I ever have before, but I love it.
I confess to this; sometimes I will purposefully say things that are utterly incorrect. I do it just to hear the sound of your voice and reasoning for a few minutes longer. You're so concise, and you never look at me as if I'm an idiot. You only look at me with gentle eyes and you never raise your tone.
Nobody's perfect, and I apologise that I can't be perfect for you. But you are perfect.
Du bist mein süßer, süßer Schatz, dem mein Herz und meine Seele gehören. Mein Engel, dem ich ganz und gar gehöre.
I truly hope you enjoy what I have in store for you on the fourteenth of February. The day is ours, and whatever you want, I shall deliver.
What the hell? You can't literally pour your heart out and then expect me to just deal with it.
I am constantly falling for you over and over again. I'm not kidding, I read this and I feel like I'm gonna cry.
Now you're a few feet away from me but Will, I want everyone knowing that I love you too. So I'll type this out.
Look - you're just lying there. Do you even remember that you scheduled this?
This is one of those days for me. You let me put flowers in your hair and all these stupid things that I thought you'd find childish, but you let me do it all.
You're quite literally the greatest person I've ever met. You're a genius who could have anything he wants in the world, yet you settle for the simplest life you could have - I'll never understand it. Sometimes I fear that I might be holding you back.
I love holding you and loving you. It's the only thing I want to do. Can't we just lie in bed for the rest of our lives? I only sleep because you're next to me.
And I love our talks - but what I didn't know was that you're saying things that are wrong on purpose I knew there was something up there, I should've known. You're a sap, William. I love you for it, though.
I'd never raise my voice at you, you know that, right? I can't find it in me to do that, I'd probably cry if I ever did, even if it was an accident. And you aren't, in any way, an idiot. You're quite literally a genius, as I keep telling you.
Now I might have done things that are wrong, sent you to hell and back, but for some reason, you stay. And I love you so much for that.
You're perfect to me. You think you aren't enough? Yes you are, you're more than enough. It's actually overwhelming how many good qualities you've got. You're clever, you're sweet and you're quietly caring. What the hell is better than that?
Tū mērā manapasada haiṁ. Tū mērā sapūrana muḍā haiṁ. Tū mērā sabha kujha āpaṇē āpa vica rakhadī haiṁ. Maiṁ ōnā hī tērā hāṁ jinā tū mērā haiṁ.
I love you so much Will - I really need to say it more.
🌳: Hey Ray! Happy valentines to you and Will!!!! you're gonna do something for today? :) Me and Mir are going to the beach today (yaay!!). Hope you two have a great day hehehehehe
🌳: (Sorry if i sound a bit hysterical... You know, it's the first time we interact and I'm really excited!!! And also this was written with a translator haha <:'))
@10-ways-to-live-a-quilombo
Oh hello there! Happy Valentine's Day to you as well! Thank you so much!
Yeah, we are doing something today, thanks for asking! 💞 Will has been pretty cryptic about it all, but so far the day has started with a walk. Now we're just sitting in a field - Will's picking flowers for me, I can't tell if he's making a daisy crown or a ring.
I love this boy 💐💞
I don't know what comes next, but I do know that for the whole day it's just going to be me and him. Rowen insisted that it had to be this way - said it was more romantic. Like he'd know a thing about romance 🫣
But after this I'm not too sure. Whatever he decides to do, I'm sure it'll be great just as long as we're together xx
The beach? Oh, that sounds really fun! I do love the beach - I haven't been in a while though since London doesn't really have beaches, which sucks. Maybe next time we go on holiday, we'll visit the beach. But for now, I'm stuck with car fumes and cloudy skies (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ I hope you have a great day too!!
Hysterical? No, no, don't worry about it! You're fine! I'd love to talk more, thanks so much for shooting me an ask!!
And a translator? What's your mother tongue, if you don't mind me asking? 💘
Once again, thank you so much for reaching out, can't wait to talk more! Happy Valentine's Day! Hope you have a great day with your lover ❤️
🌳: Weeeee, that's so cool!!! I love when they get misterious hehe 👀... And my mother tongue is spanish! Miriam has been trying to teach me english but is toooo haaaaaard...
🌳: London doesn't have any beaches :(? I love the beach... and luckily we live in a beach city. So. Beach any time!!!

E: hey, er, William. it's nice to see you again. Carter got you this neat telescope, since he heard you've been studying astrology or something like that. Sorry if it's not what you like.
E: you were not supposed ta say that.
E: you do it then!
E: nevermind.
Enzo hands you a pretty big box!
+1 Huge Telescope acquired! Have fun!
- @ask-el-n-carter (i forgot enzo's username just pretend it's tagged :3)
Ah, Enzo, hello again, old friend. I suppose I could say the same
Carter got... Carter got me a telescope, did he? Well - yes, I've... I have been studying astronomy as of late... I suppose it goes hand in hand with my field of study, which is meteorology.
You... you didn't have to do this for me, you are aware? I rarely get gifts from anyone other than Rayna and Rowen...
This telescope - it's... practically gargantuan. How much did this cost you?
Well ... thank you. Thank you very much. I like it, of course I do- it is exquisite. Beautiful indeed.
Rowen is an actor. He enjoys a plethora of things and dabbles in many, many hobbies. He is open to almost anything you throw at him - a 'pushover' in some ways, if you ask me.
I have seen him scrapbooking as of late, but aside from that, he quite likes going outdoors on ridiculously long walks, as well as playing tennis. Christ, he's good at tennis.
I'm sure he'd be happy with anything you gave to him, he is easily pleased, that boy.
I... must agree; the notion of you buying every friend you have a gift is outlandish. Not only that, but you are also bound to lose all of your hard earned money.
Well, yes, I... I went out to purchase it not too long ago- it's- I liked the colour and it was on sale! Let's- let's go and find a gift for Rowen, yes? Come, come.
E: hey, er, William. it's nice to see you again. Carter got you this neat telescope, since he heard you've been studying astrology or something like that. Sorry if it's not what you like.

As I've stated numerous times, the notion of having a house party is ridiculous. Our flat will be in utter shambles by the end of it, and I refuse to assist in tidying up the mess that your guests will inevitably leave behind.
A bar in Dublin, you say? Has there... ever been a time where you were not indulging in alcohol?
We live in the same flat, actually - all three of us! He doesn't like having guests around, out of pure fear that they'll wreck the place. Never do, though.
C: That's great! I didn't know, apologies °-°""" But it's great to have roommates to look out for you! I still talk with my old roommates :)
C: But if you invite people you know—friends, family, relatives—maybe they won't ruin the place as much as you might think. And plus, everyone can help pick up stuff after! Sometimes the after-party is much more fun.
C: That's a pretty pessimistic view on life, William. But, reluctantly, I agree. Sometimes people just want food, and I can admit to wanting just that. Haha.
E: get a beer or two in ya. you sound like you got a stick up y'r ass. lighten up, kid.
C: Let's NOT encourage alcoholism, Elis. Calm down. Not everyone wants to be like you.
Pessimistic or realistic? When have you ever arrived at a gathering intending to engage in conversation? I am merely basing my assumptions off of personal experiences. No one is interested in small talk. You take the food, you leave.
As for Elis, I don't need a 'beer or two' in me - the thought appalls me. We don't make a habit of drinking alcohol in Kew Street, and we never will. I don't need beer clouding my judgment, and I certainly don't need you instructing me when and what to consume.
As for lightening up, I can't simply let my guard down, can I? Anything could occur at any time, and me lightening up could result in unfathomable consequences - consequences that I... do not want to face. Whatever happens, I must be aware and I must be alert. I have made that mistake more than once. Carter is correct in what he says. Keep your alcohol to yourself.
E: calm down my god obviously im not giving alcohol to you the fuck obviously you have control over what you eat and drink when did i ever say you didn't??
E: just sayin' that being so tense all the time wouldn't always keep you in the right mind. you're gonna get burnt out if your mind is whirring all the time. this isn't right; for you or for your health. anything can happen at any time, and yes you may need to always stay alert, but not all the time. if soldiers have limits, so do you.
He's... difficult, I'm sorry. He's struggling, he's been struggling. He doesn't like the idea of alcohol, not after everything.
I do agree, he's too tense for his own good. We've been trying to get him to just... relax every once in a while but he swore on his head that he could take care of the three of us. We all did, silently. We're all just trying to look out for each other because frankly, that's all we've got left. Just... us.
He has limits, I know he does. He hasn't reached them yet, but I'm afraid that he's close. I'm afraid that he'll reach them, and he'll push past them. He just... cares too much. He loves... so much that it's- it's...
-Nevermind that, let's... get back into the topic of Christmas, huh? Bar in Dublin you said? Any drinks you're dying to try, or are you just going to blow off a bit of steam? A soldier's must be difficult.

They are not my 'rascals,' Carter. You get your own sister home and then we'll see if I can take these overgrown children with me. I don't work for your ass lmao
Trust? Certainly. You can count on me to get your delinquents home safely.
I'm sure I'm in for an interesting journey, but don't be surprised if I return your sister to you with her mouth taped shut. I don't handle the drunk very well.
Praise whatever is above, we've made it to your abode
Now get out of my car before I throw you out myself.
And go drink some water, your constant urge to vomit is repulsing. I hope that next time, you have some semblance of self control. I don't want to be in this situation ever again.
Alright, excuse me! Not my fault I was caught on a roof (probably my fault) with my beloved and a drunk person! You were the one who decided to take us!
Of course I'm asking for permission. I would never endeavour to make my Rayna upset with me in any way, is it so difficult to understand my desire to keep her happy?
