the moment willa spoke, emery's expression brightened in a way it only did when music was the topic of conversation. between the morning rush and trying to remember everyone's drink orders, she'd almost forgotten they were supposed to meet about the assignment. "oat," she repeated with an embarrassed little laugh, tapping the correct button on the register. "right. thank you. sorry!"
she rang the drink through and started to assemble it. her manager was probably going to kill her for slacking, but frankly, she'd been looking forward to this glee assignment. "i'm actually really glad you brought it up," she admitted. "i've been making a little list of ideas, but i keep changing my mind every five minutes."
she reached into the pocket of her apron, fishing out her phone. "i get off in like... twenty minutes? i'll text marijoy and we can see if she can meet us so we can talk about our assignment." her thumbs moved quickly across the screen to shoot her friend a text.
to: marijoy 🌼 @fr3quencies hey!! ☺️ willa's here at fabray's and we were just talking about our mashup! if you're still free after work, come meet us? no rush, we can grab a table and start throwing ideas around 💛
sliding her phone back into her apron pocket, she looked up with an excited smile. "there. hopefully she'll come join us. coffee's on me. i'll be back to brainstorm as soon as i can!"
... seth looked at hollis, his breath heavy and warm in the enclosed space they shared - and hollis swore he could count every bead of sweat lining the brunet's hairline. he wondered if he looked as panicked, as confused, as aroused, as the other. his mouth opened, still sheening with spit, ready to laugh away the thick tension between them when seth spoke first, voice low, "hollis, i -" ...
BUZZT!
all of marijoy's concentration, which should've been focused on the lecture in front of her in the first place, dissipates into nothing - and she's almost annoyed at it, her magnum opus fading in front of her, teeth gnawing against glossed lip until it's bruised red, until she notes the name flashing atop her screen. then that too dissipates, and marijoy leans back into her seat with a grin, thumbs blurring across screen as she texts back.
to: em!!!!!!!ery!!!!!! OMG thats when i get out of class!!! i'll run over asap give me like 30min!!!
AN HOUR LATER ...
marijoy's panting by the time she bursts through fabray's door, nearly knocking over two girls on their way out as she barrels past ( and is reminded, briefly, about the great rinky dinks accident of fall 2025 ... oh, how those bodies fell ... ) to scope out emery and willa. she's almost frenzied, barrettes sliding halfway down her hair, tote bag no longer perched upon shoulder but swinging heavily from the crook of her elbow, and it almost looks like she ran across campus. she didn't, of course, because she had the shoo - ster, but she has to look at least halfway disheveled to make up for her chronic tardiness, she thinks. the bewildered looks she gets as she strides across the cafe are worth it, in that way. she slinks into the remaining seat at their table with an exaggerated sigh, bag slung atop the table until its' contents are sliding halfway out. marijoy ignores them in favor of saying, "oh my god, guys - i'm so sorry, i almost ran over like, three different people on campus on the way here, and by the third one i was like, totally convinced i was supposed to be in a meetcute like, strangers to soulmates fairytale, so we started talking - but as i was like, oh my god, this is such a crazy coincidence, he was all like, do you even have a license to ride that thing? so, yeah - sorry, but i'm here now! ready and caffeinated! have you guys thought about what we wanna sing? i was telling em that i think we should do something that's like, vocally big, but i won't lie guys, i think the vocal coach i bought lessons from on temu is ghosting me, and i'm super bummed about it." @socvereign
she couldn't help but smile at emery " yes to that i have the same. every time that i think i've found the perfect mash-up something else just comes along. " she quickly glanced at her watch to check the time before grinning " that sounds perfect actually i don't have anything planned at least for the next 3 hours so we might get some little details done. " at the mention that the coffee was on her she almost wanted to decline before reminding herself that she probably would take a couple others before she left. and she was never one to not leave a nice tip. " Hopefully she'll agree yeah, I'll just go find ourselves a nice little spot around a window maybe. natural light does miracles for my inspiration. " she grinned and took her coffee before settling on a nice window seat not too close to the door but still in a not too crowded spot.
1 HOUR LATER ...
after ordering 2 more coffees ( this time paid by herself ) marijoy also joined their little table. bringing her usual chaos that willa actually didn't exactly dislike. she usually did like people with spirit and she was definitelt spirited. she took another sip of her 3rd coffee and smiled " i mean vocally big could work but like we do also need to think strategically like what are they expecting ? I do also like up-tempo ... so maybe not a ballad ? but we could do some girl power like what about so what and since you've been gone with a little touch of stronger ? i feel like pink and kelly clarkson could be a fun combo.

tl;dr: your muse pops by fabray's. emery is #werking the counter.
money had been tight this semester. it always was, but emery was really feeling it. she didn't want to pick up another thing on her plate, but she knew she couldn't ask her mom for help. she was already on a work-study and as many scholarships as she could have picked up, but there was not a ton out there for girls who almost made the top 20% of their class. so, a regular old boring job it was.
fabray's was busy that morning, and emery had done her best to memorize the new drink specials that the owners had added to the menu, but she was midway through scribbling down a series of lyrics that were equal parts devastating and relatable when her manager gestured over to the line that had formed at the register. swallowing, emery tucked two strands of dark hair that had fallen out of her messy bun behind her ears, painted on her best smile, and stepped up to the ipad. "hi! welcome to fabrays. thank you so much for your patience. what can i get started for you today?" her fingers hovered as she began to type in the order. the words were still stuck in her head, and emery was struggling to concentrate on anything else. she wasn't cut out for this, clearly. "wait, i'm sorry-- did you say oat milk or whole?"
new year, new start and as always new chaos. which is exactly what willa witnessed today. freshmen rushing to find their classes, friend groups who had recently started seeing each other again, classes that had started and were already demanding way too much. but thankfully some things stayed the same. which is how she found herself at fabray's one of her favorite places at the moment. she had just finished ordering her mocha oat milk latte one of the new discoveries she made last year when she tried something new on the menu. when her thoughts were interrupted. " oat please, one of the best drinks added to the menu if you ask me. " she looked around before turning back " it's busy today right ? as if everybody has just discovered this place. but now that i see you i was wondering if you had ideas for songs for the clee club assignment like we still need to get together but it could never hurt to come prepared right ? "
“Yeah,” He reiterated– exhausted was what he was only a few moments ago. Shepherd wasn’t sure what to call this feeling now. “Slow down. I was half asleep ten minutes ago, now I’ve got– and no offense to you– a girl in my face, and no coffee in my veins yet. Not exactly how I felt like spending the start to my day.” Sure it was 4pm, but– well. He didn’t exactly have an excuse. Already missed two classes, planning on skipping practice. It was one of those days his Dad would have his ass over if he got wind of it.
“I know the deadline,” Shep had already started walking, and talking– he looked over his shoulder at her, motioned for her to follow. She’d have to if she wanted to keep him upright; he needed to hit the coffee cart. “Like I said, most of the other girls just like to hand me sheet music. You want me to help pick a song, then I’ll help pick a song– just can’t promise you that you’re going to like what I wanna do.”
A grin spread over his face at the sight of the coffee cart– oh, sweet, holy land. “You want something?” He quirked an eyebrow. “Eh. On second thought, you might not need more caffeine than you’ve already got in you. I'm assuming it's... a lot.” It was a joke that he didn’t know would land– Shep tried it anyway.
she couldn't help but roll her eyes. and then they said women were dramatic ... those people had probably never seen an exhausted ( surely from actual hard work ) college boy. " exhaustion is for the weak shepherd. and no offence but i would also rather have someone else in front of me but alas we can't always get what we want. " when he started walking away she swallowed her pride and did exactly so. if she wanted to get things done a quick hallway meeting probably wasn't enough. she almost asked the question to where the hell he was heading to before he answered it himself. " then again it's a partnership so we compromise. besides as long as the songs go together it's all good to me. " she herself had some ideas but it all depended on what vobe they wanted to give off. " like do we want sad and dramatic like some coldplay and olivia rodrigo or we can go full on big for like some katy perry and kelly clarkson. like what are the things you're good at to sing ? " when they arrived at the coffee cart she gave him a smile " actually i haven't gotten any coffee today it messes with my swimming for some reason. so yes thank you for offering i would love a coffee anything involving vanilla will do honestly "
Lucas was tired. Like dead tired, the kind of tired that came out in bone aches, and fuzzy fingers… Luciana chatting away in front of him, words practically in one ear and right out the other? It was only a moment before he was waving a hand up between them, begging for a pause in the one sided conversation. It was his own fault, of course– the leftover alcohol was still working its way out of his system, the sleep he hadn’t gotten before class was taunting him.
Damn Cece, and this whole Glee club thing– or maybe damn himself for even putting it on their radar. Note to Shepherd: make sure a sword, and a bet, aren’t double edged before you go swinging.
“Can you… slow down a little?” A raised eyebrow, a blank stare. Lu, and lu. “I figured you would just– let me know what we’re doing?”
“You know? Most of the girls in the club just hand me sheet music, and call it a day.”
she blinked and frowned at the hand being currently waved in her face before registering the words coming out of his mouth. did she expect anything else from him ? no, but was it something she liked? also, no. She wasn't a fan of the assignment either, especially so early in the year with all her other clubs also starting out. but she was still herself, and being silent was never one of her biggest strengths. “ slow down ? look i'm not sure if you checked the deadline but in case you haven't we do have one. and i don't like to lose so there's no way we're going to be worst ones okay. also ” at the other comment she huffed and had to restrain herself to not cross her arms. " this is a partnership nor a solo effort like it's the 21st century lucas here boys have to work for the things they want even if it's extra credit in an after school activity and if they're boys like you. "
who: bear & luciana @socvereign where: campus library
there was a chance bear occasionally went a little overkill with the background checks on his classmates, but, in this case, it felt necessary. luciana was smart, really smart, to the point where bear, perhaps - though he wouldn't admit it - felt a little threatened by her. he needed to be the smartest person in the room, a hundred percent of the time. "we need to talk." bear doesn't wait for an invitation to join luciana before sitting down across from her, opening up a manila folder full of printed out articles, and spinning it around to face her. sure- he could have just shown her on his phone, but this was more dramatic, and he liked the flair of it. "i've been doing some digging. can you look over these and tell me if anything in them are familiar to you?"
after searching ( and sadly not finding ) a spot in one of her usual places luci decided to check out her work for the week in the library. at least it would be quiet there and nobody would bother her unless absolutely necessary. which is why she internally screaamed when someone did decide to actually bother her. she turned to the other probably glaring at them as if her eyes could end them. at the question she dropped her gaze to the folder in front of her. like who does that even in times like these ? " really bear you want to come bother me to look at articles. don't you have something better to do. I know I have something better to do " she looked at the articles managing to keep a neutral face. " the're articles so what ... i don't see what you want me to say about them. you know just as well as anybody else that not everything you find on the internet is valid. "
"thank you for your succinct life update, luciana," stella acknowledged, very well aware of the fact that it was done to express that she'd jumped right into things without even a hello. but that was simply how stella operated - business first, personal connection if there was time. and presently? there was not time. not when she had so many members of the new directions to corner and pressure into actually trying.
at the very least, stella was a little warmer towards luciana, given that she was not one of those people. but it still felt important to check in, especially given luci's partner for the assignment...
"well, we do have the power duo thing covered, but... sure. god forbid there's another emergency, like last year. you're not wrong that we may discover some talent to showcase at some point," stella replied diplomatically, her addition of when i've graduated silent. "i'm simply offering it as an option. with your jolly green giant of a partner, i wasn't sure if he'd fit in some of the other rehearsal spaces on campus."
she blinked at the other not really expecting something else from the other " that's what we call politeness stella you know greeting someone, asking how they are. basic manners really but i guess those aren't exactly the priority right now. " she looked at her watch before turning back. she could hear the unsaid words and as always felt the competitive drive in her bubble up. " well you know what they say right everyone is replaceable. even top singers in a university glee club. like life can always just throw up something unexpected. so who knows the some point might be closer than you think. " at her last comment she bit backa smile " nah he's fine he can duck if he needs to. when there's a will there's a way. "

𝐖𝐇𝐎: luciana castillo , closed to @qbshepherd 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄: a random hallway on campus as she accidentally runs into him 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐍: after swim practice around 4pm-ish
after swim practice lu usually took a short walk around campus. not ready to go back to her dorm yet. this time she was also thinking about the assignment she still had to start on for glee club. something she very visibly rolled her eyes at in practice when it was announced. big assignments at the start of the year should be banned in her opnion. like they didn't have enough to do already without it. thankfully this time the assignment could be split into 2 as she didn't have to do it alone. which was also both a blessing and a curse, as now she had to make sure that the other was also in it enough to be good and not end last, as that would be the worst thing as her social reputation almost had a holy status to her. so her next step would be to actually find her partner to start discussing song options and maybe even plan some practice or just see their opinion. however luck seemed to be in her favour this time because walking around campus apparently meant today that the chances of running into them was pretty big. She smiled to herself as this made her work a little easier she adjusted her bag before stepping over to the other. “ hi nice running into you ! I guess it's lu and lu for glee practice. almost as if they planned it right. but as we do have a deadline and i don't like to underperform we do really need to get some things going. i'm not going to make a fool out of myself i can assume you don't want that either ”

the blender bottle filled with the world’s powderiest protein shake is slammed on the piano in the choir room. a piece of sheet music gets caught in the breeze and carter sees it as a sign from the gleek gods to flee. and honestly, he’d lost count of how many times he had been lectured about rearranging the sheet music. what was one last time? it’s not like he would really have to put his best foot forward for this mashup anyway—he was only required to be present. or so he thought. he’d have to look into what exactly a mashup even was. it takes him a minute too long to unceremoniously stuff the sheets into place before he turns to run off. “oh,” he gasps when a familiar face catches him in the act. a seemingly innocent smile creeps across his face while he runs through a list of excuses in his head. once he lands on something, he deliberately steps aside to block the piano. being caught in the choir room was embarrassing enough. “dude, i was just about to come and find you—do you have any advice about party themes? is back to school too on the nose?”
for some weird reason, the choir room always brought some sense of peace to luci, which is why, after a swim practice, when her mind was fully on this, this was the room she gravitated towards. running into another member was not something she planned to but it did happen frequently. so when she ran into carter she wasn't completely surprised. however at his question she frowned and pursed her lips “ that's not only too on the nose it might even be boring. like we can do better ... like heaven and hell some lovely colour combo, costumes or neon that always sells really well as well. or like something simple like truth or shot or dares or something. the year is still young, so plenty of options are still open. ”

⭐an open starter for anyone in new directions
as co-captain of the new directions and someone still living in shame from last year's disastrous competition season, stella firmly believed that it was her duty to ensure that each and every new directions member was taking things seriously. not just in their group rehearsals, but outside of them too.
which was why she'd taken to cornering new directioners in public settings, appearing seemingly out of thin air beside them in a way that might terrify those with a weaker constitution. luckily, her voice alerted people to her presence soon after. that day's opening line? "hope you're excited about this week's show choir assignment," words she delivered with an only vaguely threatening smile.
"randomized pairing mashups - how fun! i recommend booking the choir room for your rehearsals sooner, rather than later, before it's monopolized by other - lesser and non-performance related - activities."
new year, new possibilities, new chances and hopefully a win and not an embarrassment. then again luci would be lying if she didn't look at least a little forward to the new things. because losing last year only made the drive to win this year bigger. and even if she would never admit it ( in fact probably be caught rather death ) she did enjoy spending time in the choir and performing ... and doing something entirely different than what she had always done. however running into a fellow new directions member during her resting period after swim practice and when she should have been studying was not really on her bingo card. she bit back a sigh because snapping at one of your captains was never a good thing and turned to stella “ hello to you as well stella, such a lovely day yeah. i'm doing amazing nice of you to ask. and yeah I saw the announcement always fun to start the year with some random pairings. who knows we might find our next power duo. " she gave the other an almost sarcastic smile " and don't worry if the choir room is fully booked I can manage finding another place. I don't need much but thanks for the reminder. "
(﹙˓ 🎧 ˒﹚) whoa, did you just hear that voice? it's so recognizable that i have no doubt it's LUCIANA CASTILLO. i don't really know much about them, but i heard they're a TWENTY ONE year old INTERNAL RELATIONS / ECONOMICS major in their THIRD year of study. people say that they're CHARMING and COMPETITIVE, but rumor has it that they're actually CONTROLLING and MANIPULATIVE , so i guess we'll never know the truth unless you live with them in HUDSON house. if you ask me, i think i'd describe them as THE CHARMER, but their spotify wrapped should say more about them, in which POCKETFUL OF SUNSHINE BY NATASHA BEDDINGFIELD, BERGHAIN BY ROSALIA, AND BAD ROMANCE BY LADY GAGA are amongst their most played. but whatever, i wish them luck on their endeavors in NEW DIRECTIONS, CHEERIOS, STUDENT BODY COUNCIL AND SWIM TEAM. i don't know how they have time for all of that, but i can't wait to see how this new school year treats them!
