#strength ft. fool

[amstrength]

who: the fool @we1rdos where: amelia's birthday (the front yard)

benji had snuck away to the front yard, away from the thick of the crowd. he was close to just pulling out a cigarette and lighting up, but he wasn't all that hidden from view. everyone would see him do it. and he would confirm all their suspicions about him. about his degeneracy. it was times like this he was like his other peers. who could sneak away and take a hit from their vape in the bathroom, and wave away the sickeningly sweet cloud. but he hated it. the buzz was never the same as the quick pulls of real tobacco. just as he was about to say fuck it, he locked eyes with clementine through the front window. she was standing in the living room, and he did what they had been doing all night. waving random hand signals, hoping she understood his attempt to get her to meet him outside. and just in case it wasn't obvious to her, he used his hand to exaggeratedly wave in his direction.

ft. the fool @we1rdos location: elwood national park

benji liked the national park. he liked the tall trees, and the crisp air. it made him feel apart of a bigger world than wrensted. the world could seem tiny with how everyone treated wrensted. like it was the only place that mattered. that the things that mattered there were the only things in the world. it was draining. but the forest was nice. the rustling of animals, the breeze through the trees, the chirping of nature. it was easy out here. it's why he started his daily run there. he had been stretching when he heard a snap of a nearby branch, and he whipped around his head to find the mess of curls that was clementine, "come out here to cast a spell on someone?" is that someone me? he wonders to himself.
