Felicia was reaching her limit. She let out a huff, flaring her nostrils as the person on the telephone babbled on and on. “Listen,” she finally snapped, “if can’t follow a timeline, then I think you should find another line of work. Have the prep work ready for the new exhibition by tomorrow evening or start looking for a new job. Your excuses bore me.” She didn’t even wait for a response before hanging up and sliding the phone back into her bag. “Anyway... “ She turned back to the person who had addressed her. “What is it that you were saying?”

clutching her body close to the ladder, sabrina had reached out to attempt and sliding the book into it’s proper position on the shelf. it would have been less problematic to use magic but due to the current size of the crowd within the walls of the library, this was not an option. but as her tiny frame continued the attempt, her foot had slipped, her hold on the ladder unfastened as she let out a scream. the witch braced herself for the impact, regretting the decision to say yes to this arrangement. it wasn’t her idea to study at the library.

Serah had been searching for a particular book that seemed to be popular among the students since the library hardly has it up for availability. Everyone seems to beat her to it, but the saying stays true: the early bird gets the worm. Trailing the isle of spines, she mouthed the titles as she scoped for Bloody Mary. When she spotted her objective, she frowned as she realized the it was at the very top. And, she didn't see a ladder or stepping stool. Yes, the pinkette stood at five foot eight, but the bookcases were tall and it was just barely out of her reach even on her tip-toes. Attempting to get it, she huffed with indignation, glancing around and her eyes stopped at someone who stood not too far off. “ excuse me , can you help me reach this book ?? “

The summer heat lulled him into an unexpected slumber. Although , his lack of proper sleep he's had made it not so surprising. His dorm remained vacant for the last few days , his attendance level at ground zero during that time. College – definitely wasn't something that Justin Foley imagined for himself. At no point in his life did he ever imagine that he'd actually get into university. The way his life barreled down a disparaging path, it was hard to create any substantial thoughts of a future. Nightmares have left him sleepless.  Everyday he lived with that aching and dispelling anxiety that it would only be temporary. Nothing good ever lasts , and his mentality slipped considerably at an alarming rate that he now rested up against a brick wall. “ Shit , “ he said suddenly, jerking awake,  as he heard footsteps approaching , maybe a voice ?? he couldn't be too sure if that wasn't apart of his illusive imagination.  “ how long have you been there ?? “

“i just don’t believe in a fairy-tale ending, you know?” sabrina expressed, her fingers gently twirling the spoon in her mug as she allowed the tea bag to steep. “if they came true, it wouldn’t be like this-- nothing that happened in life would’ve happened. they must just make it up, for the cliche aspect of it. or maybe to give a false hope-- must be.” clinking the spoon against the cup, she removed the tea bag and placed it on a napkin. “i’m sorry-- i didn’t mean to be a downer today.”
