I met five of them at LIWho, and they're all ridiculously nice. If you're worried about talking to them, think about what you wanna say before hand. They won't bite (Colin might lol kidding) and I hope you have a great time :D
The thing that's super scary is that I'm not just gonna, like, go up to the table and say a few things while they sign a picture and that's it, I could prepare for that. But I'm going to a hour and a half long breakfast event with the guests. I'm bad enough at making conversation in normal circumstances!
Also I'm pretty sure Colin is going to hate me because I'm going to make him autograph 70s Porn Colin.
The Honey and The Bee (A quick Modern AU with Eight/Charley)
Note: So I decided to write for my brain-twin eighthofhearts,and she message me she is not too well-I go for a fluffy and sweet drabble. It is a little rough,I do hope you enjoy it! BTW the song is the wedding procession song of my elder sis..So enjoy jess!
The eighth-a Pre-Raphaelite model reincarnated,Tristian,he has big blue eyes that sparkled with innocence and curiosity is pretty much a romantic,he always holding a book of romantic poetry of Bryon and Keats in his hand. He is an artist,who painted gentle still lives and landscapes. Charley Pollard,once belonged to a sheltered world of her rich parents-is a traveller,she loves to breathe in new places and spaces-backpacked in Nepal and dive in the great barrier fief. She always have a tattoo behind her neck,of Tolkien’s saying “Not all those who wander are lost” because she always read adventure books,as a child to escape the boring life and long for them. It is a wonder of two romantic souls should met.
On a vintage shop,it played Bing Crosby’s The way you look Tonight. The sun bathed the store,lit the lovely trinkets and furniture. The spaces between them are separate, Tristian is looking for the vintage records of Liszt,Charley-a unique souvenir that could not be found. And there they somehow bump each other
“Oh I am sorry”-Charley smiled
Tristain blushed-“No that is fine,I am a little dazed from seeing so many things there"
“Sometimes when I am in a shop like that,I feel as if I am transported in time-I could travel along the world"
Charley smiled-“Me too,just strolling through novelty shops,eating the local food,savouring the culture-"
It seems that their awkwardness kinda bond them together,Tristian tried to initiate something
“Well I am an artist-I do mostly still-lifes and the classic stuff-how about you-what do you do?"
“I tend to travel alot-i realise I want to be a travel writer"
“Wow it sounds rather fun…"
Then Tristan recalled something-why he went to the shop,before bumping into Charley
“Well I am looking for that old Lizst record-it is quite hard to find it these days"
Charley giggled-“Seems you rather stay in the past eh?-ahh to time-travel,what is that novel?"
“Oh The time-traveller’s wife..no..outlander" Tristian blushed-“Nonsense! It is sometimes healthy to have nostalgia-sometimes I feel more at peace looking at the rembrandt and the Renoir's"
Charley laughed the loudest,it sparkles such personality-“when I was young,I read too many old novels-always the plucky orphan who travel in the past-there is sense of adventure."
"while it is fun,to savour the past-we must forward to the future-get lost and find ourselves"
Somehow Charley’s words struck Tristan-well he is not in luck,being in competition with his edgy peers who did splats on canvas,blow up pieces hanging on walls and even experimenting with video. He is always a stickler of tradition when it comes to his art practices. He grew silent.
The time grew slow as they gazed each other
“well that must be awkward “ Charley’s eyes twitched slightly
Tristan grew aware of how absorbed the converstation-“Maybe let’s meet somewhere….I know a good coffee place nearby-it is pretty stuffy here."
“I will quickly find the records and buy it,I know they have a good brew"
Charley smiled-“Sure! I will wait for you outside"
Charley walked outside,taking out her ray-bans and waited for tristain to pay. It seems they have some connection but she cannot pinpoint it out clearly. In the cashier,Tristain thought of how different Charley is-she seems easy to talk with. She has that glow that make him at ease. At last he is out
“Coffee?"
"Why not?"

It's okay, things happen. I'm proud that you made it so long, and this is just another bump into the road. If you need to talk at all, my inbox is open, dear.
Tbh this is probably the longest I've ever made it. Thank you.
Thanks eightofhearts for the awesome game of Cards Against Humanity. I was really nervous about trying it, I did, and I had a blast! Can't wait until next time.
