Chloe could hardly believe her eyes. On top of everything she was dealing with, now she was staring at Bash. Who had said nothing to her about being out of prison, first of all. Second of all, he had been in prison in the first place. He wasn’t her problem, but she somehow always managed to make him her problem. Especially with everything that had happened with Lily, and the fact that Chloe had now taken her on as a client. It seemed like a good idea at the time, a harmless way to make a jab at him for getting himself in such trouble, but now it was just going to be weird. She wasn’t getting paid enough to deal with weird.  Her feet carried her before she could think. She found herself planted in front of him, chin tilted up to look at him as he stood over a foot taller than her. Her arms crossed in front of her chest, as she seemingly waited for him to say something. “So, I take it you’re out of prison?” The question had a bite to it that wasn’t quite so casual. It wasn’t really fair to be upset with him, she knew that, but Chloe wasn’t exactly in a state for emotional control.

13. When was the last time you were truly happy?

When Verity said she would marry him. :sadclown2:

Jacob jogged to the door and opened after a quick look to make sure it was Bash, “Just in time, pizza beat you getting here and the game just started,” He said as a greeting and moved aside to let his brother in and pulled him in for a quick hug letting him go with a pat on the back. “Beer?” He asked as they walked towards the cooler and pulled one for him and one for Bash, the pizza was already on the coffee table with a couple of plates and some chips in a bowl, Jacob did not love playing football but he liked it and it had been his ticket to college but he had never really considered sticking to it for the long run, some of his teammates specially in college had breathed football and Jacob had always been concerned if practice was gonna run longer cause he had a lot to read but he had a great appreciation for the game and after hanging his cleats Sunday had become sort of sacred to him, he would spend the day watching the games even his wife knew Sundays were sacred which was the reason she was... somewhere. Jacob grabbed a slice of pizza and tried to focus on the game, making a comment about the plays the teams were running every now and then but he couldn’t really focus on it and he sighed subtly, “How’s... Lily?” He asked before taking a swig of his beer.

Lily should’ve known by now to expect the unexpected with Bash Landry. What was supposed to have been a nice dinner at a fancy restaurant one town over had turned into an exploratory adventure, with the pair walking along some cobblestone streets and Lily trying her best to not stumble in her stilettos. “Couldn’t we have just gone on a park bench to sit? These shoes aren’t made for these streets, Sebastian?”

I can carry you. The words are said with confidence, and it’s difficult to tell the difference between Bash jesting and being serious. Raising an eyebrow as she turned to face him, Lily didn’t have time to react before she felt herself being lifted off the ground and being held bridal-style in her boyfriend’s arms. Placing her lips against his, Lily was about to mention how romantic it was when her position was suddenly changed, being hoisted over Bash’s shoulder instead as he walked. “Sebastian!” Giggles and shrieks muffled the exclamation, which changed into surprised gasps when he placed two smacks on her ass as he carried her. “Where are you taking me?” It’s a surprise, princess. You’ll see. Wasn’t everything a surprise with this man?

1. What’s your biggest fear?

answered.

4. Last thing that made you cry?

answered.

10. When did you have your first real relationship? How did it go?

So. Middle school probably doesn’t count, but it was such a Moment in Perry’s life, that she’s going to count it, anyway. Her first real relationship was with Ariadne in middle school and Perry was in whatever love you can be in when you’re 13/14. To this day, she’d probably tell you it was real. Ariadne told her they should keep their relationship a secret (and honestly? Perry was totally okay with that because she was still figuring herself out and didn’t necessarily want the entire school to hone in on her and her blooming sexuality). But when someone found out, Ariadne told everyone that they were not dating, Perry was just weirdly obsessed with her. And of course, everyone believed Ari over the weird girl who lived in the lighthouse and could see ghosts. So. That was fun and not at all scarring.

4. what seemingly insignificant memories stuck with your character?

Sam has a bunch of memories of his childhood spent with friends that are still in his life and will probably continue to be forever. He remembers bike rides through the town on warm summer days and long nights spent outside long after their curfew, just small glimpses of a life that felt much lighter and easier, even with the restrictions that came with his family name. He cherishes them and thinks of them often, especially when he hangs out with those who are closest to him. There are also fond memories of him and his mom stored in the back of his mind but he tries to keep those locked away to keep the hurt at bay. Yet, he remembers them baking and cooking together a lot when he was a kid and bringing batches over to neighbors and friends at random, just as a sweet kind of gesture, referring to him as her very own delivery service and he remembers feeling so proud every time.

10. what does your character pretend or try to care about?

While Sam isn’t all that good at caring about anything in general, or at least comes across that way often, he does try to care about other people’s feelings a lot more than he used to. It’s not him pretending usually but genuinely trying – he just doesn’t always succeed. He knows, deep down, that it’s a defense mechanism he developed over time. One he doesn’t really care for so he is doing his best to be more empathetic.

12. what is your character afraid of? what scares them the most?

Losing someone he loves again. As much as he pretends not to care, he holds those he trusts and admires close to him and it would destroy him to know one of them got hurt, let alone one of them left him for whatever reason. The abandonment issues are strong but he’s mostly just worried for their well-being and safety or worries they might just not want to deal with him anymore at one point. He couldn’t bear a loss like that ever again after his mother’s passing.

13. what is a secret your character has never told anyone?

Sam is rather shameless in all he does so he doesn’t have any more secrets to share – the town knows most things anyways and people talk, he knows all about that having grown up in the town’s community and around Sunstone Beach. A thing he doesn’t ever share though, not even with his closest friends, is just how deeply he sinks into his sadness when he’s by himself. He also would never admit that this is why he tries to keep himself up and occupied more often than not.

5. what is your character reluctant to tell people?

For John, it’s still hard to talk about why he can’t do certain things some days, that he’s perfectly capable of doing on others and he usually refuses to ask for help when he’s in pain and struggling, mostly because he doesn’t want to be a burden to anyone. He’s used to handling things on his own, so that’s what he’s been doing for a bigger portion of his life. He knows he should just be honest and tell people that he got into an accident when he was younger and it left him with a few permanent injuries, but to him there’s nothing more frustrating than having to admit his defeat. Instead, he pushes through it, unless he’s entirely unable to hide it.

Another thing he doesn’t like to share unless it comes up is that he still does paint occasionally. The answer to the question is only a google search away but if he’s not asked about it, he won’t talk about it.

16. if your character could talk to their younger self, what would they say?

Having grown up in the foster system is another thing John is reluctant to talk about but ultimately, it shaped him and is a part of his story, one that he accepted early on but because of it, he’d tell his younger self that even if it sounds cliché, things will get so much better for him. He’d tell himself that he shouldn’t be so hard on himself and try his best to believe in his abilities, without taking them for granted. That he’s worthy of love and care without having to work so hard for it or pretend to be something that he’s not. He’d tell himself to be less fearful, more confident in his decisions and that it’s okay to say no sometimes – which is something he struggles with to this day. He’d tell himself that compromises are important but always a two-way street, especially in relationships. John would tell his younger self that he should never settle, even if he feels alone and helpless sometimes, he’s not and he won’t be. He’d tell him that even if he goes through hardships and heartbreaks, he should never lose his tenderness but hold it close to his chest – people will cherish and love him more for it.

19. what did your character want to be as a kid and did they succeed?

Answered here.
