i just came here for the

R Y A N 🫐 S P E N C E R 30 - paramedic The taste of you still lingers on my tongue as if you were some forbidden fruit. The smell of burnt toast remains, hanging in my kitchen like a ghost of my past in which it’s actually just that I haven’t cleaned out my toaster since you left me.

hank-bramson​:

Hank hadn’t known who else to call, he didn’t exactly need the help but a second pair of eyes that weren’t his parents via skype was nice. Comforting even. It just so happened in the limited people in Moorbrooke he knew well enough to come over, his second call happened to be a medic. 

Standing in his kitchen, undershirt swapped the tank top version, Hank’s arms were glowing red. His scalp and cheeks were too but nothing quiet as bad as the back of his neck which was sunburnt to the point of being near blisters. The morning’s shower was torture, even moving now was rough. “I don’t know. I’m not allowed to be in the sun? I shouldn’t wear short sleeves? I put sunscreen on before I left the house like I’m supposed to. All I know is it hurts…a lot.” 

Ryan just sighed, trying to think if he had anything in his bag he kept in his car to help him out. “So you’re allergic to the sun, and you moved to a beach town? Honestly, not the brightest idea.” He dug around in the bag, pausing to look back to up at him. “Did you do anything already? Like, did you try and put anything on it since it got this bad? Did you take anything yet?”

astridvelden​:

       “it’s not like i willingly do this shit, it’s not my fault that the second i stop competing my body decides its fragile. i used to be made of rubber and now i sprain my ankle missing a step.. its bullshit.” astrid mumbled as she crossed her arms over her chest. it was brutal how easily she got hurt now but was thankful she had met someone she could call instead of spending even more time at the doctor’s.

Ryan shook his head. “And they say athletes are at the top of their game. Fucking bullshit. The number of people in sports that fuck up their body..” He wrapped it up for her, making sure the right amount of pressure was on it. “Next time I’d suggest taking all the steps.”

owenholliday​:

Despite being a Nurse himself and having a wide collection in his first aid kit, Owen still found himself in a bit of a situation. It was harder to try and work on yourself than it was on someone else, which was why he found himself at Ryan’s house, letting him fix up the injury he had acquired instead. it’s talent. Owen typed out on his phone, eye brows slightly raised as he turned it around to let the other read. Besides, no one said I was ever decent at cooking. Or well, that cooking was safe. He added after a few seconds, giving a slight shrug of his shoulders, though making sure to keep mostly still for Ryan. 

Signing while trying to tend to the other’s burn. Instead, he just hit the speech to text function on the phone to communicate. The amount of culinary injuries I’ve dealt with tells me its the lack of attention with heat or whatever people are using. I’d suggest a cooking class. Ryan looked up at him to show he was still paying attention, and making sure to check for when he was trying to talk to him that he wasn’t missing anything.

Ryan was happy to help out a friend. He took an oath to help people and he always would, even on his day off. Right now he could be browsing houses but here he was, fixing up an injury that didn’t quite require a doctor’s office, but it was definitely more than a bandaid. “I don’t know how you manage to get yourself into this kinda shit.”

QUADE.

location: club leziate when: july 5th status: open || @moorbrookestarters​

quade’s work often involved taking clients out for lunch and the person he was representing now was a big one. being partner of his firm, he was also able to take four hour long paid lunch breaks on a monday. he’d just finished with his meeting and treated himself to a third martini, eyes drifting around the bar to scope the place out. once his gaze met with someone else’s, his smile grew and he gestured to the spot beside him. ‘i know what you’re thinking… i’m too pretty to be drinking alone. you’re right, come join me.’

[rynspncr]

Ryan was out for the evening visiting a friend at work, treating himself to a drink before he went home to look at houses with Alec which was sure to be an interesting experience. While he was okay with whatever Alec wanted, he wanted something they could both be happy in and he didn’t know how well that would go over. “Not sure my boyfriend would see it the same way.”

TEDDY.

location: streets of moorbrooke, outside of nourish when: july 5th status: open || @moorbrookestarters​

the perks of a small, friendly town was that even when you didn’t know someone, it was likely okay to trust them. at least teddy always did. everyone in moorbrooke was kind and it was so rare to find someone downright terrible. teddy didn’t think twice to hold out the extra smoothie to the stranger. ‘i’ve got an extra smoothie if you’d like. some sort of kale concoction. pineapple and strawberries and kale they said. i’m actually a little allergic to pineapple so i can’t drink it. the barista at nourish said i could have it and yeah..’ they said with a smile, sipping happily from their own smoothie. 

[rynspncr]

Ryan rose a brow at the other. “So you got a smoothie with pineapple when you’re allergic to pineapple or...” He looked at it before taking it, hoping the other wasn’t trying to poison him. “This isn’t some plot with my brother to kill me, right? Cause I can see that fucker doing it.”

itsprescott​:

alfie’s brows furrow in response, “oh yeah, because you definitely need your stomach pumped after a few pints. jesus christ.” he mutters, turning his back to fetch a towel. it wasn’t exactly the cleanest one, but alfie felt he owed the other absolutely nothing so he wasn’t bothered by it. “now, you gonna you lighten up and not judge others for havin’ fun? or can i get back to servin’ customers that actually want somethin’?”

“Hey, I don’t know how much you plan on drinking. I just know what my weekend consists of.” There was no way he was going to get a single free moment while on duty. “I’m not judgin’ you.”

hank-bramson​:​

For a moment Hank’s entire body tensed at the surprise arrival of Ryan. Something that would have had a greater impact were they not in an incredibly public place. “I’m really, really passionate about freedom from the monarchy,” Hank teased, purposely making his accent thicker to say it. “You and I both know I’d rather be at home right now but…” pausing for a moment, Hank tried to find the right words. Not wanting to say too much and certainly not wanting to be serious right now. “If the fireworks are going to keep me awake, I may as get something out of the deal.” 

He laughed, linking arms with him. “Really passionate about freedom from the monarchy. Uhuh. Okay. I hate to break it to you but our democracy is a bit fucked up.” He tried to drag him towards the stalls, something for them to at least look at. “I work all night so, unless I get a call of someone being a dumbass, which I probably will, you can hang out with me. Probably Alec. That fucker wandered off on me again.”

melonball​:

RIVER.

‘damn you, too!’ river groaned, flipping off the other without even having to turn around to see who it was. ‘gah, such bullshit. i did not deserve it. i deserved no part of this.’ they bounced over to where their brother stood and rolled his eyes. ‘that was the last of it too, so i guess christmas is ruined.’

Ryan rolled his eyes. “You sure about that? I’m pretty sure a good 75% of what you do, the backlash is well deserved. “When has christmas not been ruined? Our family is a disaster and we try and fail yearly.”

mollyhiatt​:

The sound of a familiar voice brought some comfort to Molly, she probably wouldn’t have been aroused from her reading from just anyone so easily but as soon as Ryan reached his hand down to get her up she obliged. “Alright, alright,” she said, stuffing her book into her shoulder bag and carefully getting herself up from the sand. She was thankful he seemed eager to get her up and about and wasn’t beginning the situation by giving her a hard time about their first meeting which had came about thanks to her hitting a sweet spot against the desk and going down for a few moments. Thankfully she had made a full recovery and was already acquainted with the town paramedics in the event she needed them in the future. The thought made her laugh. Finally, once she was standing she brushed a bit of sand from her coverup and nodded, “Alright, you got me up, and I promise the book is away. I appreciate your attempt to keep me from becoming the town recluse.” 

“If I wasn’t here, you’d be lost. Or dead. I’m not going to let you just wither away.” Ryan waited for her to gather her things, walking towards the crowds. Sometimes he enjoyed just relaxing alone, the bustle of people far away. For the most part, he craved the noise around him. Quiet silence was unsettling. “Just don’t pass out on me this time,” he smirked.

[rynspncr]

ALEC.

‘i… am weak with puppy eyes. anyone does them and i just say yes. oh yeah. it definitely wasn’t the whole dating you, being in love with you thing. absolutely your doe-eyes. how could i resist?’ alec said as he leaned in to kiss ryan’s cheek fondly. ‘yeah, that.. sadly sounds about right. was it the 4th that did you in? nasty holiday. well we’ll try to keep all our remained kidneys intact for the weekend and hopefully your brother makes it out fine.’ he reached down to hold ryan’s hand and walk around the carnival with a soft laugh, ‘babe, i don’t know! looked like cheesy fries. i liked fries, i don’t know. i don’t care what goes in my stomach today.’ 

“Weak. Was it the whole dating being in love with me thing? I may need a refresher. You what?” He just wanted to hear Alec say he loved him again, and again, and again. “It was about that time. Early July. Probably not the 4th exactly, but who’s to say.” Ryan groaned at the idea of cheesy fries. “I didn’t know there was cheesy fries somewhere. Fuck the fries I had earlier. Let’s go, loverboy.” When Alec said he didn’t care what went in his stomach, the medic smirked a little, making sure he caught where he was going with that thought, hopefully still sharing the same brain.

circe--miller​:

Circe curled her legs up into an arch and rested their arms on their knees for support. They smiled when the man said vegetarian and nodded. “I’m actually vegan so anything you’d recommend would be amazing, actually. Just no dairy is all.” They smiled wider and then reached their hand over. “I’m Circe by the way. You alone here too?” they asked, chuckling softly.

“Even better then. I’m pretty sure there was a lot of vegan options at the veggie places I noticed.” Looking back up at them he shook his head. “Ryan. Nah, my hus-boyfriend is off somewhere.” He scrunched his nose. It was still weird to refer to Alec as his boyfriend and not his husband. The medic laid down and stretched out. “You tattoo, right?”

[rynspncr]

Fuck, Kiss, Marry. Teddy, Alec, and Lawson.

Fuck: Teddy. Super hot. Marry: Alec. Been there. Done that. Would do it again. Kiss: Lawson. I probably have at one point or another already. [ @melonball x2, @fcklawson ]

most attractive people in mb?

Me, Myself, & I. [Alec. Everybody.]

[rynspncr]

ALEC.

‘trading cigarettes for glow sticks? my genius boyfriend. actually, i got some too but i gave them to some kid because they looked at me all doe eyed.’ he smiled and twirled the heart glow stick between his fingers before slipping it onto his wrist. it wasn’t flowers, but just the fact that ryan was thinking about him was enough to make his heart swell. ‘thank you, baby. ugh, isn’t that always the case? mix people with a party and there’ll always be a few that need their stomach pumped. i hate saying this but your brother is probably going to be one of them if he doesn’t pass out soon.’ alec kissed ryan again before reluctantly pulling back just to keep their pda at a minimum. ‘let’s go get some food, i’m starving. i think i saw poutine somewhere?’ 

“I didn’t even need to go to jail to learn that skill either. Just comes naturally.” Ryan watched him play with the glow sticks a moment before slipping it on his wrist. “You do fall for that all the time. Anyone doe-eye’s you and you fucking melt. Is that why you said yes when I asked you to marry me? It all makes sense now..” Ryan looked up at Alec with a knowing look and a nod. “Honestly, if I don’t see him passed out somewhere or injured, dehydrated, and getting his stomach pumped, it’s not a Spencer family 4th. Come to think of it I’m pretty sure I lost my kidney around then too...maybe this just isn’t a good weekend for us..” He shrugged. “The fuck is that? Poutine. That sounds awful.” Ryan had already eaten fries on his search for Alec, but he wasn’t going to turn down more food.

[rynspncr]

ALEC.

‘oh shut up, i’m better than caspian!’ alec laughed and gasped down at the glow sticks. ‘oh babe! these are adorable. where’d you get these from? in a heart! i love them.’ he leaned down to kiss ryan back, pulling him in impossibly closer. ‘oh good! good, because i want to spend all my time with you. how was work? are people already making bad decisions with fireworks and booze?’

“There was some table with them and Rook said he’d trade a pack of glow sticks for a smoke, and I happened to have a couple on me. I just made sure they were the bendy kind. It took a bit of convincing but I got ‘em to go in a heart shape. Took a little tape in the middle so if you could just ignore that, that’d be great.” He kissed Alec again, sliding arms around him. “People are always making bad decisions. No firework injuries yet, but a fuck ton of people being idiots with alcohol. A couple falling, a couple dehydrated, a lot dehydrated. A lot of bullshit.”

PUBLIC | RYAN&HANK

“Who knew you went out in public?” Ryan snuck up on Hank. He had been off and on doing his actual job, but why hang around the first aid tent when someone could get hurt and not make it over there? At least that was his excuse to walk around. Already finding french fries, glow sticks, and hanging out with Alec for a little while, Ryan was on the move again. At this point he was just trying to tally how many people he could find. @hank-bramson​
