Sigh…

Weddings are beautiful, weddings are wonderful, trust me when I say that nobody loves weddings more than me… but they’re so self-centered, don’t you think? It’s kind of rude. Nobody wants to pay attention to anything or anyone except the wedding and the people getting married and it’s kind of ridiculous when you think about it because what have they done besides get engaged? I don’t mean it in a bad way but that’s not really an accomplishment, is it? It’s just a thing that’s actually kind of boring and egotistical. I mean, the presents and everything? 

Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE weddings, I love everything about them, I can’t get enough of them. But I’m just saying… It’s like, wow, look around you, there are celebrities here and nobody is even paying attention… Like what does that say about these people? You know what I mean? That’s kind of selfish.

“Oh my god thank you.”

Liana: Oh my god these are perfect. I'm definitely putting these in the slideshow for the reception.

Liana: Is Henry still in touch with any of these people? He never talks about his old friends or anything, but I'm pretty sure I've seen... Some of these people.

Riah: Yesssss, you're my hero.

Riah: He hasn't been to my knowledge. A couple of them have ended up here in Oakvale for school or whatever, but I don't know if they've connected

Riah: Found some of those pictures I mentioned of Henry’s punk phase

“I would love that. I know he was a little… Rough around the edges when we met but he went for that pretty boy charmer act pretty fast. He doesn’t talk bout high school much, now that I think about it.”

Yeah, that’d make sense...apparently there was some sort of falling out with that group; they seemed inseparable but then he never really talked about them again after he got back

lydiaesther:

Weird dance shit mostly. I’m really into Charli XCX and Grimes right now. Obviously my girl Rihanna can do no wrong. And I’m obsessed with 80s pop hits and one-hit-wonder phenoms. Like, mall pop is my shit. I take pop music pretty seriously.

I’ve been trading in my Spice Girls for riot grrrl lately though, so I have an … Appreciation for what you do.

You can’t tell anybody, but there’s a ridiculous amount of 80′s pop in my playlists...

Oh, really? Me too.

Let me ask you something, honestly and in confidentiality; do you think he’s making the right decision here? 

[riahwestonsv]

lianasnow:

“Thanks, I can use all the help I can get. I’ve definitely heard about you though.”

“I like your whole vibe. My high school punk dreams were squashed too soon.”

Henry went through a serious punk phase when he was at school in England. There was this little group of like three or four of ‘em that did like the whole safety pins all over their school uniforms, “Question authority” thing. It was pretty sweet, I’ll have to see if I have pictures somewhere.

Henry: Right, so I'm supposed to believe that you want to go off playing '7th Heaven' and this isn't some crazy scheme

Riah: Yeah, see I can actually do stuff with people without using them or becoming part of their "forever"

[riahwestonsv]

Text -> Riah

Henry: Tell me you're *not* flirting with a Schmidt...

Riah: I'm sorry, is this the same Henry Weston who wrecked the best thing that ever happened to him, then ran off and got engaged to someone else?

Riah: Admit it, you only care because of whatever weird grudge you're carrying towards their family.

Hello, Riah. Home for the holidays, too?

Planning for a little longer than that...taking a break from tours to do some writing, soul searching, whatever, and of course support our baby brother on his new adventure 

[riahwestonsv]

lydiaesther:

That is so cool. I seriously love your stuff. It’s not what I usually listen to but, seriously, I’m a big fan.

So… Will I see you at my family’s holiday party?

Wouldn’t miss it. 

So what do you usually listen to? 

[lianasnow]

“My fiance? Oh, he’s usually…. Fashionably late. I’m sure he’ll be here soon.”

“Who needs a prompt fiance when you have figure skating and the fascinating inner workings of the human mind to keep you busy? I… Yes, I technically did qualify and I’ve been working hard to make sure I actually land the triple axle at the championship.”

[riahwestonsv]

You get used to his...scheduling errors. I don’t think we’ve properly met; I’m Riah, or brother number five, if you’re still trying to get all of that straight.

[riahwestonsv]

lydiaesther:

Oh yes it has.

Not much, obviously it’s not… Particularly interesting here. How long are you back?

Couple months probably. Taking a break from touring to write stuff for the next album 

[riahwestonsv]

brinels:

Well for starters, your brother’s engaged, which I’m sure you knew, but that’s the big news right now…

Ohhh yes, I’ve heard all about that....I swear the whole family split between conniptions and congratulations. Kid always did know how to make an impression
