@ddyfckr bloomed : “ i miss you. i know i’m not supposed to, but. i just had to see you. ” / for Millie 😈 long lost meme / no longer accepting !
As swiftly, and as quietly as she can muster, Millie closes her bedroom door, locking it with a click before turning to rest her back against it. facing the taller, a worry-laced joy etches across her features.
❝ you KNOW my parents will skin you alive if they find you in here, right ? ❞ She attempts to make some light humor to lighten the otherwise awkward atmosphere, as one tends to do when confronted with the return of a childhood friend-crush.
Millie had seen all she wanted from the result of the Pain Games. it's no surprise that Blitz and Striker tied for first-place winners -- her boss can be exceptionally capable in combat when he's motivated, & Striker... if he's anything like he was when they were kids, the short-stack shouldn't be as bewildered as she is to see him sharing the winning circle with Blitz. with just a few sentences, somehow, the sharp-spined imp has her feeling a wave of homesick nostalgia.
❞ i missed you, too. it's been.. ❞ Christ on a stick, just how long had it been since they last spoke ? definitely over a decade, & there's a blink of guilt before it's washed away again, replaced with a soft, restrained glee.
❞ it's been too long.. you look great. ❞
