“You’ll get a sugar high,” Lydia said without missing a beat.
Hayden stuck their tongue out at Lydia and pouted on the couch.
“You let me leap off buildings but heavens forbid I have marshmallows,” they sunk further into the house before they popped up, “What if I clean your whole house?”
“Are you bribing me for marshmallows?”
“Yes?”
“It’s working.”
Lydia silently dropped three marshmallows into Hayden’s hot chocolate.
“You do hair for a living, you practically live and die off of appearance.”
:I mean, you look fine Kelsiecat, it’s just a performance.”
“But I want to look perfect.”
“Kelsiecat-”
“Hayden, I need to look perfect for this performance if I want to have a lead over the other singers in being picked for the bonus.”
Hayden blinked at Pussycat before holding up their finger.
“I’ll go get a person.”
A few minutes later Hayden came back with Samuel and the two went right to work.
By the hour Pussycat’s outfit was changed from a store bought Christmas outfit to an adorable performance outfit, the design a mix of Samuel’s stage practicality and Hayden’s showboating.
“It’s adorable! Thank you guys!”
“And practical.”
“And I set up special effects for you! Go, shoo, you’re going to nail it!”
The show went off without a hitch, even with Hayden’s special effects. When Pussycat got off the stage and left for the night she was pounced by Hayden at the door.
“Did you get the bonus?”
“We’ll know tomorrow.”
“Well, just in case you didn’t get the bonus, Samuel and I are going home for dinner and we want you to come along!”
“Are you sure? I wouldn’t want to-”
“Oh! And Miss Jacklynn got you this!”
Pussycat practically ripped the box apart at the mention of Jacklynn. Inside the box was a small wooden statue, hand carved and polished, with the name Kelsie carved into it.
“She said it was a multipurpose thing for you to figure out how to use! Now come on! Dinner!”
Hayden tugged at Kelsie’s sleeve, but Kelsie didn’t miss the smiling red lips and pink jacket that were watching her from the crowd.
Mmkay, it's 3am and my patience is like, nil right now, so forgive my shortness on this matter, which someone else had to even alert me to, but here goes.
I tag my rhack. I tag my rhack when it is actually rhack. If I am interacting with a Rhys, even if they have a relationship in another verse or timeline, it does not automatically make it rhack, and I will not tag it as such until it fucking becomes rhack.
I also tag for things like pet play and D/s stuff, any kinks or dubious things or violence, so if you have issues with those things, it should already be covered. Just add a ; before word/s and you're golden.
I will not tag every character interaction with a ship tag if it isn't shippy yet. If you really need shit tagged that badly, maybe try asking the individual person/s instead of shouting into the void where they may not even hear or see you.
Got it? Good. Have a good night.
