no matter the cost

I’ve decided that it’s best for me to remove myself from this roleplay. I’m sorry about this but it’s something I really need to do. 

Thank you for a lovely 3 and a half years. 

Goodbye everyone.

“Well with how stressed you sounded,” John said as he cleaned up. “It sounds like you’re dealing with something that might set off a bad reaction on accident. Growing up in London with parents who wanted everything done perfectly, I can understand your stress a bit… No hard feelings. Promise.”

“This class is giving me such a hard time. I’m an Asian Studies major, I don’t need biology!” She tried to breathe out her anger that was started to rise into her shoulders and making her tense. “Yeah, my dad’s the same way. He expects so much of me and sometimes it’s just hard to handle. Not like you at all needed to know that, wow, sorry... Again.”

John sighed a bit, feeling slightly embarrassed by what he was about to say. “To be honest, I can’t remember what I came here to study for.” He said, “There’s a good chance I actually wondered in here on accident after a long, exhausting class and just passed out… My apologies for hindering your studying, though. Let me just clean up my things– You can come it while I do that. I’ll try to be quiet.”

A gentle laugh trickled from her mouth before she was able to zip her lips and contain it. “Really? That’s a new one... Well, I hope you had a nice sleep since you went to all that trouble to get it.” The blond walked into the room, shaking her head to his response, feeling a bit bad for letting her temper get inflamed in the moments prior. “No, it’s okay. I’m just freaking out... Take your time, I’m not going anywhere. You don’t happen to know anything about biology, do you?”

 Vision didn’t want to deny what the stranger thought so instead he gave a crooked grin and nodded in agreement. “You know, it might just be easier to show you. How about that?” He asked looking down at the lukewarm cup of coffee sitting next to him. “I’ve been sitting here long enough anyway.”

“I don’t want to trouble you. If you have time though I would really appreciate it. I promise I’m usually better at this, I don’t know what’s wrong with me today.” Rose offered him a smile to excuse her foolish actions. Her eyes brightened upon hearing him, feeling a bit better at his comment. “If you’re sure you have time. Thank you.”

John was trying his best to ignore the girl, which is probably why everything she said made no sense to him. Why was she trying to study in his room? How could she have booked it? It didn’t make sense… That is, until John opened his eyes, and realized he was not in his room. “What the–” He jerked up right, looking around. How did he get here? Remembering the girl standing outside, he unlocked the door and opened it for her. “So sorry,” he said. “I didn’t realize I was here… I mean, here as in the study room. I suppose I was sleepier than i thought.”

Rose placed her forehead against the door, immediately a sigh flying from her lungs and out through her teeth. She already had the daunting feeling that she was going to fail. Since transferring a couple of credits didn’t go through properly so she had to take a science, her worst subject which meant this final wouldn’t go smoothly. Upon having the door opened she stepped back and just began to shake her head so that her blond hair lightly tapped her cheeks. “It’s fine, I get it. If I study like I think I will tonight I might do the same thing... Did you get your studying done? I don’t mind sharing the room if you need more time.”

“I don’t see why so many people are upset about this move - Monaco is a beautiful city, and I for one, actually feel pretty lucky to be here.”

“People are just mad they had to uproot everything, I guess. I think it’s ridiculous… I’m used to moving though, I did it a lot for my dad’s job. Maybe they’re just whiny?”

{john}:

“Please! Just five more minutes.” John tried to ignore the load knocking on his door, hoping the person would go away if he didn’t open the door. “I’ll be on my way soon. I promise…”

Rose groaned as she tried to get inside the room that this boy had apparently fallen asleep in. Stress was starting to sink in, a feeling she hadn’t felt for quite some time. “Come on man... I have this study room booked. I have a huge final in a few days.”

“No… that doesn’t sound lost at all.” Vision replied with a chuckle. He looked at the map and nodded. “Yeah the gym isn’t that far there is the main building up there and it looks to be just past it. The second building across from the set of hallways.”

“Of course not. Rose Huntsclan doesn’t get lost.” The girl straightened her back as if to girl her some facade of confidence. She started down at the item, trying to see what he was speaking of. “Can you repeat that? Honestly, I didn’t catch it all.” Had she lost her touch? Perhaps she was just distracted.

 Eyes went from one thing to another and eventually found the map once again. “Yeah… are you lost or something?” He asked not meaning to be intrusive. “Maybe I can help you find it where you’re looking for.”

“I wouldn’t say that I’m lost... Just kind of off track and clueless.” Rose wasn’t admit to him that she was extremely confused. He may be a stranger but she had a reputation to uphold, at least to herself that is. “Right, well do you have any idea where I could find the gym?”

 Vision had been settling well with the change. He’d picked up on the change of pace. The fact that the weather definitely kept people out more was an intriguing thought and looking over a small tourists map at a local cafe, Vision began to circle the places he would be visiting. All until a set of eyes pulled him away. “Can I help you?” He asked looking up from the map.

Rose was lost, she hated to admit it but it happened. The girl had always been phenomenal at directions but something about this move had left her discombobulated. A sigh was all her body could muster while she searched for some sort of answer to his situation, that’s when she spotted the boy with a map. “Right, do you mind if I take a look at that?” The blond asked while her head nudged towards the item in his hands.

Skye handed the girl the few items she had picked up. “People don’t need a lot of things. Help doesn’t have to be needed to be given.”

“That may be true but I’ve really got this covered.” Rose looked up so that she was able to meet the girl’s gaze. “You have any experience with that?”

Lottie handed her a stray piece of paper too far from the other girl’s reached and gave her a small smile. “No problem.”

Rose pressed a smile to her lips. “I don’t think we’ve met before. I’m Rose.” The girl said before holding out her free hand to shake the blonde’s.

“Back to the dorms? But -” Dee looked over her shoulder, frowning slightly. “That’s not even nearly close to here. Are you headed back to the Fountains? Because my room is down there too - it really wouldn’t be any bother for me to help you get back there.”

Rose didn’t want to concede to the girl’s offer. It seemed weak that she’d need someone else to assist her, she was raised better than that. “If you want to walk back with me that’s fine...” She figured that was vague enough to just be able to care for herself yet appease the girl.

Lottie was sorting through her mail on the way back to her dorm room when she saw a girl drop her things. She almost walked past her until she saw that she was injured. “You need help there?” She asked, putting her letters in her bag before bending down to her level.

“It’s okay, I’ve totally got it under control.” Rose wasn’t going to let onto the fact that she was struggling. That showed weakness which was something she refused to speak about. “Thank you though.”

[the-thornedrose-blog]

quake-the-skye-johnson:

“You sure? You look like you could use the help.”

“I don’t really need help.” Rose tried to tell herself that every day that she could. “Thanks though, I really appreciate it.” Chin up and smile, fake it, is what she contiued to say inside of her head.

Helga goes over to the girl, kneeling next to her. “You are done. Don’t make your injury worst by ignoring it.” She has hurt herself plenty of times at the gym. She also has learned the hard way about ignoring even the most minor of injuries. “How badly is it hurting? Be honest.”

She sighed, knowing the other female was right. “Right now it’s like a 6... Usually it’s about a 7. That’s saying a lot since when I cut my thigh open it was around a 5.” Rose had tried to keep herself strong. She had a high pain tolerance, she was taught to be tough, but right now the blond knew something was wrong. “What do I do? I can’t have this thing slowing me down.”

[the-thornedrose-blog]

spots-and-dotts:

“Are you sure about that?” Dee smiled as the girl looked at her, already having collected a stack of papers. “Because from what I can tell, that injury won’t exactly make it easy for you to get up and down.” Standing up, Dee handed the girl her belongings carefully. “Hopefully you’re not headed too far from here?”

“Yeah, it’s not a big deal.” She shrugged again, slowly trying to get back onto her feet. It ached to pull herself up that way but she didn’t want to show weakness. “Just back to my dorm. I’ll be alright. It doesn’t hurt very bad anymore.”
