he’d arrived with a bag of m&m’s in his pocket, but it’s since been torn open and nearly emptied. ruefully sky popped the last handful into his mouth and nodded at the stranger standing beside him “wanna go looking for snacks?” / @zlbby

it was chilly-- for an la summer, anyways. nico stood in a shadowy corner, beneath some errant scaffolding, and adjusted the collar of their jacket. there was an underlying tension in the air, a silence stretched so thin that it was wont to snap. they ignored it. 

“better out here than in there,” they said finally, more to themself than anything. 

it begged the question, of course, if it really was. in there, there was music, so loud it barely registered as anything other than an aching pounding throb, there were flashing lights and sweat-slick bodies, place after place to lose yourself. 

and here? well, the crisp breeze sent shivers down their spine, reminded them exactly of where they were. but wait-- was there such thing as being too present? nico dug their hands into their pockets in pursuit of an answer or a cigarette.

they came up with neither.

“zib,” turning to their companion for the first time since they had made it out of the club, they pressed their lips together in discontent, “i’m out of lights.“

“i brought you something,” sky smirked at the acquaintance whom he still didn’t know very well, but vividly recalled talking with a few nights earlier. indeed he seemed to be holding something behind his back. “care to try and guess what it is?” / @zlbby​

“you know it’s nearly thirty fucking degrees out?” like parker of all people should talk, but zibby’s electra heart outfit for today looked far more constricting than his jeans and leather jacket. / @zlbby
