"e-everything?" Bell repeats, eyes widening. He didn't know everything. He barely knew anything! He swallows, looking away for a moment, trying to keep calm. "i-i don't--"

He stammers, before looking truly panicked.

"you think i-i'm radioactive??"

sometimes she looks at him, all hopeful smiles and pretty blue eyes and she thinks that it's going to hurt a lot more than she thought it would, when she's finally forced to let him go. she is a doorway girl. she is the start and the end, the key to every lock, and she cannot keep something this good when she stains everything and breaks everyone. but she takes her heart with trembling hands and lays it at his feet anyway. he might pick it up, battered and bruised as it is, and cradle it against his own chest. or he steps on it, watching it break into a thousand pieces. whichever choice he makes, she will not begrudge him. (it's important to let people make their own choices. it's his call as much as it is her own. she will not turn into her own biggest nightmare, she staunchly refuses.) even if those choices will cause his blue eyes to darken ad infinitum. she cannot keep him and she cannot be kept. she is a doorway girl. she is the start and the end and one day soon, he's going to find out that she's a black hole: in her, there is no room for light.

A plain white envelope with Udyati's name on it shows up in her locker. It contains this enamel pin. On the back of the envelope, it says: Saw this & made me think of you. x Mike

she's going to add this one to her collection immediately. udyati can't remember whether they've talked about her enamel pin collection or not, but she's glad to have one more. it's super pretty. days later, he'll find a similar envelope. looping handwriting spells out his name. inside, there's a glow in the dark enamel pin that says i need more space. she's got one of her own, too. apparently there's a club dedicated to extraterrestrials at this school. namkhaeng spearheads it. joined it for funsies and because she looked like she needed a friend. i'm hanging out with her every thursday afternoon unless i can't make it. thank you for the enamel pin, i love it. xoxoxo ud.

sometimes, it's hard to settle on what to watch during movie night. luckily, mike and udyati have a fool proof way of settling these things: daring each other. the last person to tap out gains movie privileges for that night. / @escapesvelocity

"yeah," kie says softly, and laughs a little. "i can hear that." it seems like she's not the only one who loves hiding away in unused classrooms every so often. "i mean, i was next door. hence the..." she points towards her ear.

she'd been pausing what she'd been doing - coming up with a routine; her coach told her to give it a shot - when she heard the music.

"i hope it's okay for me to ask this, considering we don't really know each other---" except she does know who he is because the rumor mill got to him, too. in between the third and the fifth period, kie had learned that his name is mike, that he wanted to go to space but couldn't due to his heart and that he has the ability to manipulate gravity. some people have even taken to prematurely calling him 'gravity' or 'gravity boy'. oh, gods, the joke make themselves at this point: gravity boy and freeze girl. "---and it's not that i can't appreciate a good taylor swift song, either, but is this a way to clear your head or a way to avoid thinking about someone or something you really should be thinking about?"

19. how many serious relationships has your muse been in? are they experienced or inexperienced when it comes to dating? (bell)

@escapesvelocity

Beldane has, unfortunately, not had much luck with dating. He's the king of first dates, so to speak, or at least, he was before the abduction. He was great at rizzing people online, but once they met in person... He'd get nervous and a little awkward, making people feel as if they'd been fooled by him somehow.

After the abduction, Bell... Hasn't been on a date. He's not even sure how to start doing anything normal like that ever again.
