Text Message: Arlo

Ava: Sorry Arlo, unfortunately for me duty calls and Ela is smashed out drunk thanks to whatever the fuck Mitch and Triss are doing and now I have to go pick her up from the bar.

Ava: Do me a favor and enjoy yourself without me? Not that it should be too hard. Have a few extra shots in honor of yours truly, the women who wants nothing more than to lay on the floor and watch axe throwing competitions and drink.

“Mom, I’m doing fine. I’m not failing.” 

The conversation was louder than he wanted it to be, but frustration was getting the best of him as Silas continued his walk through campus, cell phone close to his ear until finally stopping. He had figured it was a good place to stop, away from everyone where he could have something of a private conversation, though that didn’t seem likely as he let out another groan. 

“Yes, I know that you and dad have expectations and I’m doing the best I can. Not being top of the classes isn’t failing though, be reasonable.”

He couldn’t really say he was surprised. Coming from parents such as his, two such extraordinary people, it was sometimes difficult to really rise up to their standards. In fact, that was a bar that Silas felt he was constantly falling short of, though pointing it out wasn’t going to help any, he was certain. So instead he just continued pleading until finally the conversation ended. With an exasperated sigh, the boy turned around to realize that he wasn’t in fact as alone as he had thought. 

“Hey...um...so, this is embarrassing.” @arlomerlin​

She wasn’t one for not paying attention to where she was going, not really, but everyone had a bad day every now and again. With her mind filled with so many other things lately, it was easy to get into something of a haze as she went on, only avoiding those in front of her because they were quick enough to move before the collision. But no ones luck went on forever and soon enough Sydney found herself crashing into someone, possibly someone who was in a cloudy head space much like herself. Or maybe, instead, they were just the unlucky victim who wasn’t able to get out of the way fast enough. Either way, she was jerked to her senses by the collision, realizing in horror what exactly she had done. 

“Shit! I’m sorry. Shit I’m so sorry I wasn’t - are you okay? I promise I’m not normally this much of a klutz...well not usually.” @arlomerlin​

Everyone looked better than he expected. Everything looked better than he had been expecting, honestly. The venue, the sky outside, everything. Nate supposed in a way it made sense that he was seeing the brightest in everything. This was, after all, supposed to be one of the happiest days in his life. There were just a few more things to check up on, tasks that technically had been assigned to members of their wedding parties to look into while they got ready, but he wanted to do them. Checking on last minute things meant he didn’t have to start getting ready and facing reality that this in fact was it. This was the day - his and Olivia’s wedding day. Seeing a familiar face up head, Nate let out a soft groan. Of course Liv’s wedding party would be on top of things. Dammit. Still, he offered a soft smile and wave towards the friend. “Was kinda hoping you all had left some things for me to take care of. Stop being so damn efficient.” @arlomerlin​

Ava: Do you have a magic spell for a hangover cure, perchance?

Ava: I went drinking with one of the knights and now I want nothing more than to experience what it might feel like to have a knife plunge through my heart and allow me to perish from this mortal coil
