— SETTING: below zero ; early-afternoon — WORD PROMPT: valentine — AVAILABILITY: closed starter for ALICIA MILLER GARCIA | ( @aliciamillergarcia )

Although Hanbin had been talking about it non-stop, Sara couldn't help but feeling like she was about to cry. His first Valentine's card ever! Her baby wasn't a baby anymore, and kids in school were starting to send him Valentine's cards. Soon, those wouldn't be just friendly-themed to the class's mascot.

Being as observant as he was and empathetic beyond his years, Bin had suggested going for ice cream when he noticed the pout on his mother's lips when he showed her the card. Was she that apparent?

Yes. Yes, she was.

As they approached the counter and Bin leaned onto the cold glass to check in the flavors he would want, the bell behind the door chimed once again, making Sara look over her shoulder to check who would also dare come into an ice cream shop in late winter, only to smile at the image of Alicia and her little one.

"Look Bin. It's Mrs. Garcia." She gently touched on the little boy's shoulder to catch his attention and make him turn around. "Hi, Alicia. Finally we run into each other outside of Wonderwell, right?" She chuckled, then turning her attention to the toddler in the woman's arms. "Hi, beautiful! How are you today?"

character: Giada Moreno @giadamoreno

location: Rubino del Mare

prompt word: fairytale

There was so many different things that she wanted to say about what she wanted for her wedding dress or outfit. She still hadn't totally decided. Hence why she was look at Gia for advice at the consultation. "So, I think I do want to do an outfit change at least between the reception and after party. If we do an after party. But I am still trying to figure out what I want to do whether a dress or a suit at some point. If it's a gown, I want something flowy but not too fairytale, y'know? Like I don't think that would really mesh well with my vibes plus I want to be able to dance in the dress." Thea shared as she knew she was probably already being a bit difficult, but she just had a lot of thoughts. "I think I'd do something a little tighter though for the second outfit though if we end up doing a dress or a jumpsuit or a two piece deal."

closed Valentine's starter @eroltilki

location: Deja Brew

Freddie was annoyed the moment he stepped into the coffee shop, the frothy whipped topping from a child's hot chocolate colliding with the top of his leather shoe before he could side-step out of the way. He bit his tongue, politely ignoring a murmured apology from the frazzled parent on their way out of Deja Brew. This establishment wasn't his favorite for a pick-me-up, but it was the nearest between the meeting he'd left and his next one, so he'd deal with its inconveniences. The line wasn't all that long, at least. Freddie took his place, huffing so loud the person in front of him winced.

— hyungwoo seong apartment building. prompt: candy.

It was rare for Emmy to be back in her apartment these days, especially since she was trying her best to convince her wife that she was in it to be in it, a feat that still left her panicked on the best of days and downing a few beers on the worst. But, she'd gone as far as taking a few more boxes to Verda's and showing some potential interested subtenant her apartment. That day left her returning to her apartment once more for another box, running into the man she'd made quick friends with when he moved in as soon as she made it to the elevator. "Long time no see, neighbor," She greeted with a grin, despite the internal turmoil that started to wreak havoc on her stomach as soon as she realized the boxes in her apartment had started to dwindle. "I was just heading up to grab a box, I'm moving to suburbia, apparently, if you haven't heard already."

starter for: @lorelai-tseng location: Sinners & Saints Valentine's Party prompt word: precious

The brunette's voice softened as she teased, "I swear, my mom has a thing for you." She couldn't contain her laughter as she caught sight of Lorelai a few feet away. Holding up the small bag, she beckoned her friend over. "Look what she got you," she said, unable to hide her amusement. "She said it's because it's as precious as you. Well, those were her words, not mine, but I can't really disagree." With a grin, Maya began to unwrap the small Valentine's teddy bear nestled inside the bag.

Roman knew something was off due to how giddy Ophelia was when she asked to meet him for lunch, sending a random address in a part of town he had never ventured out to before. Being greeted with a basic office building, he took the plunge and entered, getting a text informing him of his sister's cancelation just as he got shuffled into an event hall with a group who had been waiting in the foyer. After waiting in line, he was given a cut-out arrow with the number '14' doodled on it, being told to head inside to find his 'One'.

Being too baffled to do the sane thing and leave, Roman crossed the hall to do just that, coming across a blonde woman holding the same-numbered arrow, looking almost as out of place as he felt. "Hi there. I would like to preface I have no idea what this is. I got pushed in here by accident and the woman who handed me this," He held up the arrow, "Has a menancing look in her eyes that tells me if I try and leave she may get an actual one of these things and use it against me."

Characters: Elliot Chapman & Matty Foster (@foster-notmatty) Location: Holy Spirits Closed Starter Prompt: Chocolate

The upcoming holiday holiday and the subsequent event that Thea was organizing meant that things got incredibly busy at the speakeasy. Preparations were in full swing and as the future husband of the owner, he felt like he had to give a helping hand with the heavy lifting. It also served as his workout of the day, so he wasn't really complaining. As he carried a box full of heart-shaped chocolates from the loading truck to the entrance, he noticed a man making his way in. "Hi, can I help you?" He called out, not recognizing who it was at the door.

CJ had a pleasant buzz going for him. He was drunk enough to be able to feel like he was floating through the crowd, but not to the point where he wasn't aware of himself. He was also aware that it was very hot in this ballroom, and decided to step out for air. Whilst there was probably some sort of garden or balcony area, once he left the event area, then the front lobby, then the parking lot, he found himself in the alley by the hotel.

Coincidentally, someone else was also there. Staring at something on the ground.

"Yo!" He called out, slowly approaching her on the off-chance she was a murderer. CJ then glanced down, seeing it was like...an animal on the ground. A bird maybe? He let out a gasp, quickly glancing around to see if anyone was around, like witnesses maybe. "Dude, did you kill that bird?"
