Wildfire

Silas. 23. "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted."

Hey, don’t leave the napkins hanging. If you spill something or make a mess they are always there. I can’t believe I just said that, I sound like a cheesy commercial. 

[silasknight]

You just made napkin commercials sound even better...

[silasknight]

@silasknight: You can't make yourself stop dreaming who you're dreaming of...

I find it weird, you can make coffee super fast but when it comes to the other things you just drag on with it. Shouldn’t it be the other way around?

[silasknight]

Well, who knows. I guess being quick at making coffee is what's keeping me here, so I'm glad I have that particular skill. Napkins aren't that important in my mind.

[mila--dunham-deactivated2014122]

I’m not sure what to say to that. I mean, I’m happy that you wont cringe uncomfortably whenever I tease you. But hey, where am I going to get my fun from? You ruined my one source of fun, cupcake. 

[silasknight]

Maybe you can find someone else? No wait, you shouldn't do that. You should stop teasing people just for your entertainment. That's wrong and no one deserves to be put through something like that for a laugh.

[pierreemonet-blog]

That much is true. And I get where you’re coming from… Hey, you’re ’fancy’. Okay that sounded better in my head. I just meant, you know what forgot I said that. The whole thing. I was trying to be clever, but now I sound mad. I do have reason to believe that it should be the other way round, mate. I’m not even doing a proper job, the only thing I’ve done is quote Iggy Azalea.

[silasknight]

Yeah, I don't think you know what 'fancy' means but okay, thank you. You haven't even quoted her, I mean, at least you avoided the whole 'First things first' quote everyone is freaking out about... 

Anyways, you currently have that funny accent you get when you're tipsy and I want to have a drink as well but I don't feel like doing it here, do you want to hit a bar or something?

I’m a dancer, and model.

Woah, that sounds amazing. Are you working already?

[itsjust-lara]

You’re slacking man, but that coffee sounds really good so yes please. 

[silasknight]

Oh, come on. I just got caught up doing other stuff, but you did it better than me and I'll be forever grateful for that. Here you have it, I hope you enjoy it.

[silasknight]

Violet: I'm thankful that you took time contact me but until I know who you are, not just your name, I'm undecided about you.

Violet: Look, I don't usually do this but I'm heading into that cafe tomorrow and if you're there, I'd like to thank you in person because the number could've fallen into much worse hands and I think I am giving you less credit than you deserve.

Violet: And at least if you do turn out to be a creep, we're in a crowded place.

Silas: It's okay, I can understand that. I'll be working behind the counter so I don't think I'll be able to talk a lot. If you come around 4.15 you'll find me enjoying my break. I'll be waiting for you with a coffee and something to eat if you want. :)

[mila--dunham-deactivated2014122]

You sure about that? [stares at him very seriously before laughter comes bursting out] Okay, okay, you got me. Geez, when did you stop falling for my tricks? 

[silasknight]

I don't know, apparently I'm getting smarter as the days go by. Aren't you proud of me?

[evaderhq-blog]

Some people say that’s a good thing, though my teachers in school never did, I’m pretty sure they wanted to get me checked out for ADHD but I was never around long enough to go do it, I liked to skip a lot. No, Molly has plenty of friends back home and she doesn’t want to make any new ones, she told me.

[silasknight]

Things are always good unless they put your life at risk. I'm sure fidgeting and struggling with ADHD are two very different things though, so I'm sorry they wanted to put you through that. I find it deeply concerning how they want to have everything under control, so much that they give their little students a pill to make them stay quiet and interested in their class instead of treating the problem in a less unhealthy way... Okay then, I won't talk about this whole Molly topic anymore. It's clear that you want her to have any more friends.

[mila--dunham-deactivated2014122]

Don’t we all? But hey, speaking of sick and runny noses, I actually wanted to give you this tissue. You got a little…thing there. Right under your nose. It’s like sneaking out of your nostril. Slowly but surely.

[silasknight]

Yeah, yeah, very funny... I know I'm free from that kind of problems, I checked it out a few minutes ago.

[itsjust-lara]

Yes I just organized the napkins, don’t look at me like that. I know I don’t work here but it was bothering me.

[silasknight]

Oh, thanks for that. I was supposed to do it earlier but I completely forgot about it. Can I pay you with a coffee?

[chantal-desroisers-deactivated2]

And does that uncoordination include the inability to smile? You’re dancing with me, Silas, your smile should be able to light up New York City after dark right now. I invited you to dance, not to step on my designer shoes, so go on, take the lead; maybe spin me around a few times too. 

[silasknight]

I'm sorry, love. I find it hard coordinating more than two muscles at the same time, but I'll try for you and I'll smile for you as well. Let's try this out, yeah? Sorry in advance, j-just in case...

[skylar--------astin-deactivated]

The fact that I’m living in Paris now, and get to do what I love is honestly so amazing. 

[silasknight]

That's very inspiring. What are you doing here, huh?

[frshalana]

Yet here I am. Kidding, I’m just making small talk, yanno? I wish they would play something like The Ramones or The White Stripes, but that’s just a wet dream. Well that’s good to hear. Might as well make do with what we got, yeah?

[silasknight]

Your small talk is definitely something special... I like The White Stripes as well. At least some of their songs. I'm more of a John Mayer type of guy though, but that's just me. Yeah, exactly, I shouldn't complain about it so I told myself I'd enjoy it. 

[silasknight]

Violet: Not that it's any of your business but I don't usually go around writing my number on napkins for fun. I suppose I should thank you though and ask that you please dispose of the napkin asap.

Violet: So Silas, if thats your real name, why text this number in the first place and not simply throw the napkin away? For all I know this could be some conspiracy and you could be one of my many stalkers trying to gain my trust by some small act of kindness.

Silas: Yeah, I've already done that. I know and I'm sorry. I don't know why I thought this was a good idea, I guess I wanted you to know you were safe or something; you're right to be upset, though. I won't text you again if that bothers you.
