ELIJAH ! 

“ it never ceases to amazing me on just how wasteful people can be when it comes to food. i’ve watched so many almost completely full meals go into the trash today because people didn’t eat them or decide to bring them home. “ sitting at one of the stools at the bar of first date, elijah ran a hand through his hair. “ when my parents took my brother, sister and i out, if we didn’t finish our meals we’d bring them home and half the time we wouldn’t go out again for a few months. “ he sighed. “ but going out was also a luxury for us, and our parents kind of saw it as rude to not finish our meals when they did something like that for us. “ he muttered.

       “ i mean---- we’re not in a widely populated place. most of the time people would take their leftovers & just give them to the next hobo they see on the street. or at least that’s what i’ve seen happen. ” or rather that’s what has happened to lucien. when he had lived on the streets he had gotten the leftovers of so many people’s food. so to be a busboy & see all the food that was continuously wasted also made him upset. “ i feel you on that one if i’m being honest. ”

POPPY ! 

a smile spread across her lips. “you don’t have to ask. i’m heading inside to get another one so i’ll be nice and give you one,” she said as she put the key into the door, opening it up again and switching the light on. 

       “ man you’re the best already. d’ya want me to pay you back or somethin’ ? ” there was a sigh that left his lips as he hovered behind the girl. “ d’ya got banana nut ? ”

BECKETT ! 

“-oh. well i hope it wasn’t super important then.” beckett picked up his drink and took a quick sip. “was it important?”

      there’s a soft giggle that manages to leave the girl’s mouth as she leans back in her seat. “ eh, depends on what you think is important. ”

[stravgers]

POPPY ! 

“it’s honestly okay, don’t worry about it,” she said with a warm smile towards the other. “plus, you seem like you’re late,” she replied, a slight smirk plating at her lips. “i work here so the muffins are on the house, lucky me i know.”

        “ well shoot, maybe i should be asking you for a muffin, not like i have time to go & buy myself a full gourmet meal. ” there’s a light chuckle that leaves his lips as he shakes his head slowly about his own joke. “ kiddin’ i’m not goin’ to ask you to do that. ”

[stravgers]

AUSTIN ! 

“Damn, busboy number two. I thought you’d be a little more excited to see me,” she smirked and rolled her eyes.

       “ if you don’t want to work i don’t see why you’re here & complaining. if you’re just going to complain all of today i definitely wish that you call in sick. ”

[stravgers]

MARIPOSA ! 

“because damien,” she drawled before placing her hands on her hips. “they only sell it at certain stores and this was one of them that didn’t have it. i’m a hands-on person. i like to see things for myself.

       “ why don’t you go to a different store then ? --- or rather why don’t you just get someone to take you to one if this one doesn’t have it ? ” he didn’t really understand what the problem was exactly. 

[stravgers]

MARIPOSA ! 

mariposa let out an annoyed groan as she realized that she was out of her favorite kind of lotion oil. it was so easy for her to use and now she was stuck with borrowing something from her co-workers which she did not like to do. and when she made the trip to nearest shop they were all out of it. “i swear the universe hates me,” mariposa complained, glad to see someone she was familiar with as she exited the shop. “it’s just a bottle of lotion oil. and i ain’t got the time or effort to order it online.”

       lucien was just passing by quite honestly. when he had nothing better to do the male always found himself on his feet walking around the city of doveport. “ oh hey, ” lucien said with a soft chuckle trailing after his words. at that point there was a smile haunting his lips at the sight of the person speaking: mariposa. “ why can’t you just buy it at a shop ? ”

POPPY ! 

poppy stepped out of the bakery when someone bumped into her, making her drop her muffin onto the floor. “damn it,” she said, almost to herself. “it’s okay- don’t worry about it,” she said to the other as she leaned down to pick it up, throwing it into the trash can near the door.

       naveed was moving quick on his feet, he was already ten minutes late to work & since his motorcycle was left at sweet stems the night before he had underestimated how long it would take him to get there. “ what--- ? ” god he was so spaced out that he hadn’t even realized that he bumped into someone else. “ oh shit ! ‘m sorry - can i buy you a new muffin quick ? ”

[stravgers]

BECKETT ! 

Beckett smiled as he slipped his phone into his back pocket, and turned his attention the person in front of him. “Sorry, sorry. I didn’t catch that. What’s going on?”

       “ i------ ” there’s a pause as daejah takes a long sip off her drink. “ i kind of don’t want to repeat myself. ”

[stravgers]

AUSTIN ! 

Austin slumped herself in a chair at the bar at First Date, sipping on a glass of water that was already there waiting for her. “I really don’t want to work today. Staying in bed sounds like a dream.”

       lucien’s shift had already started a good hour ago, but sitting down & taking a quick break wouldn’t do him any harm. “ then leave & call in sick. simple as that. ”

[stravgers]

JAMES ! 

 “this may sound out of line, but do you think it’s possible for humans to solve our trash crisis by just puttin’ it up on the moon? certainly nothing is happening up there… who would we be interrupting?” james thought aloud aimlessly to the few people within ear shot, a common occurrence during the slow parts of the day.

       “ i’m goin’ to assume that we can’t do that for the same reasons we can’t throw it into the sun. one; humans produce way too much garbage & rocket launches cost way too much money. ” 

[stravgers]

i'll be on in a bit, i woke up an hour ago & have to pack with my friend because we're moving states in a week & a half.

jazz & roses

jazz / name a song that resonates with you and your emotions. explain the reason why.

       lucien probably feels like king for a day by pierce the veil & kellin quinn mainly because he feels like he gets pushed around a lot & he just wants to amount to more than that. dae probably would say bubblegum bitch mainly because of the amount of girl power that she feels come from the lyrics ? just the main of it, not even the chorus. she loves how it makes her feel. naveed would say congratulations by post malone in a kinda sarcastic way ? sort of like… his mom calls him a lot & wonders what he’s doing for a living but is just super disappointed in him. 

roses /  if it had to be winter, autumn, spring or summer for the rest of your life, which would you choose ?

       naveed would choose fall because it’s not too hot & not too cold plus there’s no bees like there would be in the spring ! lucien would choose the summer because it was easy to get foods & drinks from restaurants so him & his mom didn’t pass out from lack of hydration. dae likes the winter because most her clothes are suited for that season.

strawberry, banana, lychee

strawberry / favorite desserts ?

       dae likes strawberry & creme-based desserts ! naveed likes dark chocolate, other than that he’s not the biggest fan of sweets. lucien loves sour things, mainly sour gummy worms. 

banana /favorite horror movies ?

       naveed hates horror movies, he doesn’t like them at all so therefore has no favorites. lucien & dae loves & cherish horror movies & have no favorites. the only differences is lucien can watch them by himself, dae prefers watching them with other people. 

lychee /satin or lace ?

       lucien & naveed do not care. dae loves lace the most ! 

[stravgers]

lingerie, lipstick, pearls

lingerie / do you consider yourself a promiscuous person ?

       dae is kind of in the middle; she can be but she’s usually not. naveed is in the same boat, he’s either in the mood or not. lucien takes the opportunity for his different names to have different people on his sides ( usually fwb ) - he’s no cheater !

lipstick / do you enjoy talking to strangers ?

       naveed talks to strangers when he needs to. lucien will get to know strangers that he actually does know; he just tries to hide it & does it pretty well for the most part. dae actually doesn’t; she gets super frazzled really easy when meeting new people. 

pearls / what’s something about your personality that surprises others ?

       when lucien is in an actual relationship he is the biggest softy in the world, he loves spoiling his companion & will never stop at making them happy. dae is very blunt actually; a lot of people think that just because she’s soft & sweet a lot that she’s not scared to pop someone’s optimistic bubble. naveed get jealous really easy, if he likes someone & sees them hanging out & getting along with someone better than him he gets huffy.
