closed starter for @happyhavnts​ // nicholas and yin

yin was running when he threw his arm around the other’s shoulder, catching himself from knocking into the other completely and pretending as the if the two were close friends. “oh, hey! you want to spar?” he asked, excitedly holding out jin’s sword that he managed to swipe from the other. it was a death wish, he knew, but he only had his own sword on him and there was no way you could spar with someone who didn’t have a sword. “i’ll teach you if you don’t know how. i’m just itching to use this -- jin never let’s me even touch it,” he said, his eagerness evident. “come on, let’s go find a spot,” he encouraged with a small shake of the poor boy’s shoulders.

@happyhavnts​

“I’m bored,” she declared out loud. Boredom was dangerous, especially for Ylania. So she was quick to think of a remedy-- one she’d hope would last a while. “What kind of music do you think this town has?” She was hoping they did have music. “Let’s check the emporium and find out.” She grinned widely. She shouldn’t fall into the habit of inviting strangers to places, but Ylania really wasn’t the careful kind.

event starter for @happyhavnts​ // curran and victoria

curran let out a gentle huff. “this isn’t the most ideal of situations, is it?” he said as he playfully picked up one of the hung clothes and held it against him to judge how it looked. he pulled a face before shaking his head and putting it back. “what’s with all these clothes. you know, i bet people like you don’t really know how to breathe or can really move,” he said, laughing slightly. “i mean, look at this. why they got buttons all the way up here to choke you?” he questioned as he referred to the collar of a button-up shirt. “i bet you only like guys who dress up in stuff like this. you probably don’t like it when they can’t run away properly,” he joked.

event starter for @happyhavnts​ // chase and nicholas

“bit of a rager out there, innit?” chase said, referring to the falling snow. he’d never seen anything like it and it was both exciting and slightly terrifying. “thankfully we got all this bread here,” he chuckled as he spoke, already picking up one of the many treats and starting to nibble on it. “you’re a real handsome one, you know that? i bet you were stuck with someone just as good lookin’ as you. i’ve heard there are, like, princes and princesses here. i bet you are definitely one of them and you have someone waiting for you -- someone real important and pretty. am i right?” he asked excitedly around a bite of food. the idea of royalty was a new one for him. sharks didn’t really have a sense of hierarchy except based on how big you were.

event starter for @happyhavnts​ // michael and flynn

michael had heard of some rather dramatic patterns since he did help keep track of patterns for his job back home, but he’d never really heard of something quite this intense for a place with a climate like this. sure, spring snow wasn’t unheard of, but there were usually warning signs -- drops in temperature, cold rain, wind, anything. this just rolled in. so, after insisting that the tall guy come in, he closed the garage door and asked the other to sit down before handing over a cup of coffee. “here -- this should warm you up and maybe make you look a little less droopy. don’t worry, it probably isn’t here to say,” he said, trying to encourage the other to be rid of the obvious rain cloud over his head. “i would offer to skip this whole thing entirely, but my time machine is far from finished. i’ve only got this and this working right now, and barely,” he said, sighing heavily as he lightly shoved an altered vr headset and an equally altered speaker. “i do have snacks, though. and video games. that’ll distract you, right?” he said, smile back as he playfully patted flynn’s arm.

event starter for @happyhavnts​ // mary and lix

mary fiddled with one of the fabrics in the other’s shop. she’d come to admire the clothes the other put together despite having a disdain for fashion back home. she saw how hard he worked and he was always so accommodating. but, he thoughts went from appreciation to that of curiosity. “lix, may i ask you about that boy you’re always with? i think his name is lucky? is he your best friend?” she asked, biting down on her lip nervously. she didn’t want to step out of place and assume something that could damage their reputation if they had been back in mary’s england. but, the way she saw they interact reminded her of how boy and girls should act around each other when they liked them, or when they were in love. “do you love him?” it was meant in a general sense, but could have meant so much more.

event starter for @happyhavnts​ // yin and ben

“it’s so cold,” yin said as he grabbed a blanket and threw it over both himself and ben, drawing close enough so their sides touched -- he wasn’t too picked about the invasion of personal space. “but, the best thing to do to warm up other than a hot bath? drink and play games or gossip. which, like, look,” he said, motioning to the dining room table that was already set up with a plethora of drinks ready to be mixed and served. “you could not have picked a better person to be stuck with. well, except for that girl you’re always around. that is your girlfriend, right? she’s really pretty -- you’re lucky.”

“haha, i don’t know who gave you THAT idea, but we’re not an item. we never were.” // @happyhavnts​​ lix to lucky

lucky felt like he’d been punched in the gut. he’d always been attached to lix, always secretly claiming him as his. but, it appeared that their current circumstances only amplified those feelings and he’d slipped up -- saying something along the lines of the two of them needing to stay together because they belonged to each other. and, of course, he was paying the price for his words. his mind was reeling as he tried to find a way to recover from this. “i-- i wasn’t saying that,” he stumbled, feeling his heart pound in his chest as his eyes stung from threatening tears. he could see their friendship souring because of his flounder. “i’m sorry, lix. i didn’t mean it. just forget it, please.”
