SHE’S BEGINNING TO WONDER if she should change districts -- if that was even allowed. chamomile doesn’t suit her in the slightest. it’s too calm, too peaceful, a place more suited for the elderly than her. cappuccino looked far more up her alley, with its restless nightlife and upbeat atmosphere. then again, it didn’t have her partner, but the solution to that is talking her into moving too.
maybe it was a bad idea though, on second thought. they needed somewhere calm to relax, and settle. cappuccino would always be there for them to explore when they were in the mood -- which in chloe’s case, is often, but when she isn’t wandering that district in pursuit of fun, or sitting comfortable in chamomile, lakeview seems to draw her to it.
with its sunny atmosphere, and the beach nearby, it reminds her of her old hometown. funny, how she misses some aspects of it in spite of wanting to leave for the longest time. not badly enough to even consider returning ( not that she can anyway, ) but enough that she feels nostalgic upon seeing a place so similar.
as she continues along the districts boardwalk, reminiscing about events that didn’t happen too long ago, she suddenly lets out a curse when her foot collides with something on the ground. she barely manages to stop herself from tripping over the object before breathing a sigh of relief and whirling around on her heel... only to see that a person lying there, not an item as she suspected.
❝ jesus christ, dude -- you almost tripped me! ❞ she exclaims, though she supposes she’s kind of to blame, since she wasn’t watching where she was going, and he was sleeping comfortably off to the side, out of the way of anyone who had been paying attention.
❝ ugh, i mean -- my bad. i wasn’t really looki-- ❞ she pauses, blinking down at his still form. he hadn’t budge the entire time, despite being kicked and yelled at... could that mean...
❝ shit -- why aren’t you moving? hello? oh fuck me, are you dead?! please tell me you’re not dead, i can’t deal with this shit again! ❞ she’s bent down to his level in an instant, giving a swift slap to his cheek. ❝ WAKE UP! ❞
