#I live and breathe for this badass iconic female duo

[svndras]

carmen !

“ it fits her. oh, your age is fine. i just wasn’t expecting to hear eighteen honestly. so, we aren’t those people who have a shit ton of rules. the only one is like..no loud parties only because rory might kill you and i’d like to avoid that. ”

❛ i’m probably as young as they come ; for my age, that is. and i don’t really party, much. i kind of just want to get away from my mom ━ she can be a bit ... overbearing. ❜

[svndras]

carmen !

“ my dad is…a dumb. they’re just the most loving creatures on the planet. aww, that’s cute. she’s a black lab named MoMo. Oh goodness. You’re a baby. ”

❛ dogs are great. wonderful. fantastic ?? yeah, it’s fitting for her. and that sounds adorable !! ━ i turn nineteen in december, if that’s any help. ❜

[svndras]

sawyer !

Not missing a beat, Sawyer gets out of her seat: strap placed onto a frail shoulder, belongings cleared off the work area.  ❛  You know it!  ❜  The teen chimes in, crossed arms shielding a petite frame from November cold.  ❛  ‘Cause I’m freaking LOADED… Alright. Crispy fries with some extra cheese on Sawyer Kinney– struggling, starving, college student. God, I need my own car. How did you manage?  ❜ 

sandra rolls her eyes, tucking strands of thick hair behind her ear. ❛ oh, don’t be dramatic. it’s not like you’re a starving artist. ❜ a laugh escapes pink lips, and she unlocks her car, opening the door for sawyer. ❛ don’t pretend like you don’t know my parents pay for it, just like they pay for everything. my dad feels guilty and my mom just thinks it’s protection or something. ❜ a shrug makes her seem unbothered, but the girl’s insides are twisting. she starts the car, reaching for the radio. ❛ in the mood for anything in particular ?? ❜

carmen !

“ honestly, it’s my dad. i’ve been telling him that’s not it but whatever. they are. and they’re nice to talk to. they can’t talk back either. aww, really? what’s it’s name? since i moved out, i got a black lab. how old are you? ”

❛ okay, i guess. as long as your dad likes the name, i guess there’s nothing wrong with that. yeah !! that’s the best part. they’ll never argue. her name’s chloe, she’s a sweetheart ; what’d you name yours ?? ━ i’m eighteen. ❜

[svndras]

sawyer !

       Sawyer was extroversion personified; any opportunity to be with her friends was hard to pass up on. Not only that, but the moral support was beyond needed.  ❛  I need the ride, anyway, so if anything– I’m just using you.  ❜  The older continues, attempting to break the newly-made tension.  ❛  Cheese fries?  ❜  

❛ i should’ve known that was the reason you wanted me around. ❜ sandra laughed, standing and sliding on her jacket. ❛ cheese fries ?? you know that’s my only weakness. but you’re paying. ❜ car keys jingle in the shorter’s pocket as she walks towards the door.

carmen !

“ the pit bull is my personal favorite. he’s named bruce. after the shark. honestly, if i could get away with only being surrounded by dogs, i would be living the life. well, it’s nice to meet you. ”

❛ bruce ?? the shark ?? i’m not sure i understand the reference, but that may be on me. ━ i’m in complete agreement. dogs are so wonderful and friendly ━ i have a german shepard myself. and it’s my pleasure. ❜

[svndras]

carmen !

“ i do too! my dad has like three of them. a pit bull, a carolina and the other’s mixed with something. we aren’t sure. i prefer dogs to people actually. i’m sorry. what’s your name again? i’m awful with names. ”

❛ they all sound so cute !! and i agree ━ dogs are way better than people. i’m sandra. sandra soto. ❜ 

[svndras]

sawyer !

     Brows brought together, Sawyer offered the younger a nod in response; small pout formed on nude lips.  ❛  No, no– that sucks.  ❜  She spoke, beginning to put her belongings back into an already full bag.  ❛  I was gonna head by Smith’s on my way home… But we could, maybe, get something at Benny’s, if you want?  ❜  

❛ still not a big deal. ❜ sandra shakes her head, also gathering her things. ❛ i mean, you don’t have to stop if you don’t want ━ i should probably just stop complaining and go shopping for her. but if you want to, i won’t say no to the company. ❜ she smiled.  

[svndras]

sawyer !

       Sawyer shouldn’t worry her friend over something she would rather keep to herself. She was used to being the BIG SISTER in each & every scenario, and the other way around brought discomfort. So, she shakes her head. ❛  No, nothing like that.  ❜  Her tone is lighter this time around, an attempt to deflect from the current mood.  ❛  I’m fine, really, promise. Just– school’s really kicking my ass. And being captain isn’t always a WALK IN THE PARK. I’m good.  ❜  Lips curl in a faux smile; reassuring, fabricated.  ❛  So, enough about me. What were we talking about again?  ❜  

sandra knows that whatever it is, she shouldn’t push it; if sawyer wanted her to know, she would’ve told her. ❛ as long as you’re okay !! ❜ she unfolds her arms, and her fingers immediately begin tapping at the table again ━ she’s antsy, and she isn’t entirely sure why. but she ignores it, focusing on sawyer. ❛ oh, i was just complaining because my mother hasn’t gone grocery shopping recently ━ it’s not really a big deal. ❜ she shrugs.

[svndras]

sawyer !

           A hand runs through fine hair, disrupting its untouched nature. Academic challenges weren’t something she feared, let alone studied for in an act of OVERACHIEVEMENT. They weren’t even being graded. It was a distraction, at best, and maybe also at worst.  ❛  Date, I meant … the date.  ❜  The teen breathes out, the clarification being inaudible to almost everyone but herself.  ❛  Yeah! I’ve just been SO BUSY; with soccer, and friends, and school, and–  ❜  Pause. There was no need to reveal hook-ups that are intended to go under the radar.  ❛  Stress makes you… the body… like, not do its thing, you know? That’s it.  ❜

fingers tap lightly on the table in front of her as she studies her friend thoughtfully. ❛ november third. ━ do you have an assignment due ?? some big project ?? ❜ she’s concerned, and she folds her arms, attempting to still her antsy fingers. ❛ oh ━ being busy makes sense. you’re probably exhausted; your body’s probably running at sixty percent, or something. ❜ she sighs,biting her lip.  ❛ well ━ do you need anything ?? i’m here for you, if you do. ❜

[dailypleaselikeme]

Shit is getting real, you know?

[svndras]

sutton !

“ yep! that’s me. we are! i have a question though. how do you feel about dogs? ”

❛ i love dogs !! i had a boston terrier growing up. dogs are so sweet. ❜

[svndras]

@ofsuttcns

❛ you’re carmen sutton, right ?? ━ i saw your ad about looking for a roommate. ❜

[svndras]

sawyer !

          Nose scrunches and fingertips find her forehead, she was usually a better multitasker. But the new semester proved more anxiety-inducing than she could’ve predicted, that; among other things.  ❛  No, just– TIRED. I stayed up all night studying for my sociology quiz.  ❜  It wasn’t a lie, but she definitely had a better track-record with socialisation after lack of sleep. Mind trailed off once more, resulting in the change of topic. ❛  Uh… Do you know what day it is? ❜  

A concerned look crosses Sandra’s face at her friend’s words, and she folded her arms. ❛ Y’know your health comes before your schoolwork, right Sawyer ?? ❜ She frowns, but her tone is light; teasing. She knows Sawyer’s big on studying and all, but seriously ?? Staying up all night ?? That wasn’t good. ❛ ━ It’s Monday. Are you sure everything’s all right ?? ❜
