this thing is already at 2.8k words and the real shit hasn't started yet (my girl needs to punch someone okay.) anyway, first snippet of the year! bed-sharing is the norm with reader (variable x) and unfortunately it becomes the norm for françoise and isaac to sleep on the same bed as her.
fun fact: vari has had two long-term lovers before isaac. the first is a nameless painter whose face she can hardly recall. the second?
a certain blue-eyed outlaw. a cowboy with brown hair and the sweetest way with women, herself included. please thank @weathervanenews for making me write about him and vari.
the students of nevermore when they hear variable x say that isaac hates her. nobody's buying that shit, girl.
just dropping these pictures of arlecchino and columbina from the commedia dell arte (source: google images). this'll be inspo for vari and isaac unintentionally matching each other at the first and only rave'n they both attend. it's also why isaac will eventually call her dove, or more frequently, ma colombe 💕
obviously not the crazy color scheme in the photos above, since it's isaac, but i am leaning more towards the colors used for genshin's arlecchino (ugh i love her sm)
remembered owen is like 6'0 and vari's making isaac hold onto her kelly 15. the contrast is going to be hilarious because it's a MICRO bag!!! LOOK AT HOW ITTY BITTY IT IS
what did she squeeze in there? uh. her dorm room key. a bandage (singular). some cash (she doesn't carry it around often). lipbalm too ig. she probably didn't have it in box leather black, i feel like since it was such a limited run (released in 1984-1985 before its resurgence in the 2000s) she went for this special order:
color vert moyen, lizard leather, gold hardware. the kelly comes with a longer strap to be worn over the shoulder or cross body, but it's funnier imagining isaac holding it by the top handle. another option i've been considering (and also because isaac does like his reds) is this
rouge h, box leather, still gold hardware. very appropriate for the fall/winter season. isaac would approve (he still has no idea why she owns a bag that tiny but. he'll hold it.)
making vari's townhouse in heartopia and oh,,, oh it's so empty before she and isaac had their littles 🥹
which is the part of the story i'm currently at considering these two AREN'T EVEN TOGETHER YET 😭😭😭
Overheard in the Flamel Home (circa 1732)
Variable X: And that was how I caused a fire in London.
Francis, age 19 and still appropriately scared of her: Y— You caused the Great Fire because you wanted BREAD?
Variable X: Oui. Is that strange? We are French, after all.
Francis: Mon dieu.
