❛   if you're here to talk me out of it . . .   ❜ she doesn't even look up when she speaks. solely the sounds of the door creaking open trigger the snapped words from the ginger's mouth. she had heard it all by this point. the dangers of what she was planning. the numerous ways it could ( and most likely would ) go wrong , and everything in between. but her mind was set. she had to stop him. after all the other members of the party had sacrificed for her , it was the least she could do in return. and if her death kept them alive . . . well , she had to come to terms with that fact quite fast.

however , before max can finish her wording , she turns to see someone she did not expect to see. chrissy. the only other one in the party that had been as close to demise as she had that day at billy's grave. and whilst max wants to push her away as well , apart of her can't. ❛   oh , i –– i thought you were steve or dustin.   ❜

@herhaunts 💗.

        WILL EASILY NOTICE SOMETHING OFF  about the other girl,  the two meeting up for ice cream  - milkshakes  -  at the newest parlor in hawkins  ( rip scoops ahoy, their flavors and steve harrington in that uniform will be missed ),  eyes flickering to chrissy's melted sunday.  she looks sad,  and betty knows a thing or two about being a girl haunted with a perpetual sadness.   " my mom's gonna call your mom this friday, "   betty says lazily,  plastic straw bouncing against her lips as she speaks.   " i wanted to have a girl's night, just me and you. my internship is wearing me out and i got robin to reserve  pretty in pink  for me at family video. "

@herhaunts sent: ❛ You know how I feel about you. But I can’t think about anyone that way right now. ❜

it hurts, but lexa understands why this news has been broken to her. they're in their final stretch of senior year and the tests, papers, projects, commitments and college applications won't settle down just because they're OVERWHELMED. it's exciting, getting that much closer to adulthood, but also scary. adding emotions into the mix is a recipe for sensory overload.

there's the tiniest bit of relief at the notion her feelings are not unrequited, but it's still unknown what the future will hold for them. the timing...it's always the damn timing of things, isn't it?

lexa gives a slow nod in response to the cheerleader. " i get it, " because she truly does, even if she had still hoped they could make things work. emerald eyes drift away from looking at chrissy directly, a part of her terrified concerned she'll start to get emotional if she maintains eye contact. " i, uh, still have an extra ticket if you wanted to go to the game? " they could still support one another's endeavors like friends do, right?

@herhaunts asked: no one's ever actually just... sat down and listened to me. / for eddie!

Eddie knew how that could be he knew it too well. When he had first moved to Hawkins he had no one. No one wanted to be his friend or try to understand who he was as a person. It wasn't until he'd basically forced Jeff to be his friend that he had gotten anywhere. Now he felt he could talk to Jeff and Gareth about anything and God had he. He should be that for someone he should do that for someone, for her. He makes a show of grabbing two chairs bringing one over to her before he sits down in the other. "Well I'm down to listen whatever you want to talk about. I may ask a question or two but I will try my best to save all questions until the end." He says with a little smile. He's teasing of course though he does want to hear what she has to say. "Go on give me your worst. I promise I only have 3 friends so I really don't have people to spill your secrets to."

@herhaunts: there’s just some things you have to do. doesn't mean you have to like it.

"yeah, when it's something like finishing an essay or cleaning something." but the idea of social requirements has always made her bristle. she found it frustrating, partially due to her not ever really understanding what those requirements were. "this is just...it's bullshit."

@herhaunts: that’s not how it goes.

"eh, it's something like that," she responds, although in reality, yes, she's mostly just messing with chrissy. even if there's very little in her body language to give that away. honestly, she hadn't even expected the other to try correcting her on the matter.

still, caught in her fabrication, she chuckles a little bit. "so close. but what can i say, a grim exaggeration to set the tone never killed anyone." and right now, things certainly felt grim enough to opt for a darker sense of humor.

@herhaunts: okay, i’m kinda freaking out right now.

"okay, well, don't do that." very helpful. admittedly, addy is...generally not the sort of person someone looks to for comfort. she's so used to ignoring her own feelings that she's not particularly good at handling other's feelings. "i mean, it's not...any worse than anything we've dealt with before, right?"
