RULES .

¹  this  is  a  private  and  independent  portrayal  of  elle  tomkins  of  n.etflix’s  the  society .  my  portrayal  will  be  independent  and  unaffiliated  with  the  show’s  canon .  while  I will  of  course  take  inspiration  from  the  source  material ,  elle’s  characterization  will  be  mostly  headcanon  based ,  which  are  all  from  my  creation .

²  my  activity  here  will  be  low ,  as  this  is  not  my  only  account  and  I'm  a  college  student .  I  may  take  a  long  time  to  reply  and  therefore  most  threads  will  be  queued ,  so  as  to  avoid  me  getting  overwhelmed  and  my  activity  to  fluctuate .

³  I  am  not  extremely  selective  when  it  comes  to  writing  partners ,  however  I  ask  that  you  must  be  at  least  18  years  of  age  before  following .  and  I  only  write  with  mutuals . 

⁴  I  am  not   selective  over  writing  style  as  long  as  it  is  not  overly  formated .  I  use  small  text  and  no  icon ,  but  do  not  expect  you  to  match  it . 

⁵  there  will  be  adult  and  triggering  content  on  this  blog .  I  will  do  my  best  to  tag  everything  in  the  following  format :  #content/  or  #content tw .  elle  is  an  abuse  survivor  so  there  will  be  mentions  of  it  in  this  blog ,  but  I  will  never  play  out  scenes  of  it  in  threads  or  metas .

I'm  just  trying  to  look  out  for  you.      @foamsalt

elle  tried  not  to  look  too  skeptical.  it  wasn’t  paranoia,  she  told  herself,  to  be  wary.  it  was  perfectly  normal  to  be  wary  of  strangers.  except,  well,  adelaide  wasn’t  a  stranger,  she  was  her  neighbor  of  three  months  now,  with  whom  she  has  had  talks  with  multiple  times  now.  they  were  friends.    “  right.  thanks.  ”    she  gave  the  other  a  little  smile,  nodding.    “  do  you…  does  he  make  surprise  visits?  ”    elle  asked,  regarding  their  landlord.  she  still  wasn’t  sure  how  she  would  be  able  to  hide  a  border  collie  in  her  apartment  if  needed,  but  she  would  have  to  figure  it  out,  especially  if  their  landlord  decided  to  drop  by  whenever  he  felt  like  it.

[tohmkins]

I  hope  you  have  a  good  reason  for  not  being  there  last  night.      @heircurse

the  insides  of  her  cheeks  still  tasted  copper  from  the  amount  of  chewing  she  inflicted  upon  them  the  night  before.  that  didn’t  stop  elle  from  pulling  them  with  her  teeth  once  more.  elle  avoided  his  eyes,  hating  this  feeling  that  she  might  have  let  him  down.  she  had  already  beaten  herself  over  and  over  for  it,  feeling  like  shit  for  not  being  able  to  bring  herself  to  attend  that  dinner  party.  she  had  almost  gone,  going  as  far  as  getting  ready  for  it,  but  ultimately  she  backed  down,  turning  off  her  phone  and  watching  one  of  her  beloved  rom  coms  with  charlie  lying  at  her  feet.  so  much  for  breaking  old  habits.  

“  uh  …  ”    she  hesitated  for  a  minute,  debating  if  coming  clean  about  what  she  saw  as  a  pathetic  shortcoming  on  her  part  was  really  something  she  wanted  to  do  —  newsflash,  it  wasn’t.    “  charlie  wasn’t  feeling  great  last  night,  so  I,  I  had  to  stay  with  him.  I  couldn’t  let  him  out  of  my  sight.  ”    using  her  dog  as  an  excuse  was  cheap,  especially  with  harry,  of  all  people.  elle  felt  churning  inside  her  stomach,  gulping  down  her  guilt.    “  I  think  it  might  be  the  change  in  his  diet.  ”    the  smile  in  her  lips  didn’t  reach  her  eyes,  which  were  focused  on  his  shoulders  instead  of  his  eyes.    “  I…  I  hope  I  didn’t  miss  out  much.  ”

starter for @loetise

elle hands were shaking, where it had been nervousness before, now it was simply from crashing back, a buzzing under her skin from the performance they had just wrapped. everyone was ecstatic backstage, congratulations and celebratory hugs being passed around the company. elle herself felt over the moon, even as she sat at one of the dressing tables, trying to control her breathing. she could see allie approaching from the mirror, two beautiful bouquets on her hand, and a laugh bubbled out of her as she turned to look at the other blonde ballerina. “ allie! you danced beautifully! I have… no words. ” elle felt like there weren’t enough words to congratulate the fellow ballerina, allie was one of the most talented girls in their company and it had really shined through tonight. elle was as envious as she was proud, but most of all she was happy for her friend.

PROMPTS FROM YOU'VE GOT MAIL *  assorted dialogue from the 1998 film, adjust as necessary

you know, sometimes i wonder…

i would have asked for your number.

who fights about that?

well, let me ask you something.

i really have to go.

well… you don’t want to be late.

i wanted it to be you. i wanted it to be you so badly.

i don’t really want an answer.

people are always telling you that change is a good thing.

did i ever tell you that?

soon, it’ll just be a memory.

the truth is… i’m heartbroken.

i feel as if a part of me has died.

no one can ever make it right.

you don’t love me.

we’re so right for each other!

is there someone else?

i mean, nothing has happened or anything.

i can’t help myself.

what about you?

it wasn’t personal.

what is that supposed to mean?

i am so sick of that.

it was personal to me.

well i didn’t lie about it.

you are daring to imagine that you could have a different life.

have a sandwich.

so who is he, i wonder?

will you be mean to him, too?

the man who is coming here tonight is completely unlike you.

he has the most wonderful sense of humor.

i wouldn’t expect you to understand anybody like that.

no one will ever remember you.

maybe no one will remember me, either.

you are nothing but a suit.

that’s my cue.

don’t you love new york in the fall?

you said you thought she was attractive.

i always take a relationship to the next level.

do you ever feel you’ve become the worst version of yourself?

i’m sure you have no idea what i’m talking about.

no, i know what you mean.

even now, days later, i can’t figure it out.

do you think we should meet?

suddenly, everything had become clear.

he stood you up?

good thing it wasn’t the fish!

i wonder what she’s doing right this very minute.

i should marry her.

where are my tic-tacs?

no, don’t say that. we don’t know that for sure.

do you want some popcorn?

i can’t believe this!

i just have to meet someone new, that’s all.

that’s the easy part.

don’t be ridiculous.

i’ve been thinking about you.

last night i went to meet you, and you weren’t there.

i wish i knew why.

i felt so foolish.

i was cruel, and i’m never cruel.

there is no excuse for my behavior.

i hope you have a good reason for not being there last night.

you don’t seem like the kind of person that would do something like that.

don’t you think daisies are the friendliest flower?

is that what you’re worried about?

why did i ever tell you about this?

why did you stop by again?

i wanted to be your friend.

sometimes a guy just wants the impossible.

wow, i keep on bumping into you.

hey, you wanna bump into me on, say, saturday around lunchtime?

i could never be with someone who likes joni mitchell.

it must be a metaphor for something, but i don’t know what it is.

i think you’d discover a lot of things if you really knew me.

i just had a breakthrough.

why don’t you run off with him? what are you waiting for?

i could never be with someone who has a boat.

oh, i’m sorry to hear that.

tell me something, really. how do you sleep at night?

have you had sex?

you are not staying!

i brought you flowers.

i have a terrible cold.

whatever you do, just don’t listen to anything i say.

PROMPTS FOR THE GRUMPY VS SUNSHINE TROPE *  assorted dialogue for that great dynamic between a guarded character and a warmer character, adjust as necessary

GRUMPY CHARACTER

do you ever stop smiling?

life sucks. get over it.

no one ever listens to me. at least, not until you showed up.

i didn't ask for your opinion.

there are more important things i should be dealing with.

i don't talk about my feelings with anyone.

that was a little uncalled for.

i didn't mean to talk your ear off.

i work better on my own.

what did you say to them to get them to listen?

i don't want to talk to you. in fact, i don't want to talk to anyone.

can you just leave me alone?

i never said i would help you.

you can't just talk your way out of problems.

everything was fine until you showed up.

now if you'll excuse me, i have better things to do.

what's so great about this place, anyway?

my opinion doesn't matter anyway.

i don't have time for "fun."

i just want to get this done and go home.

that's never been up to me to decide.

do you stick your head into everyone's business, or just mine?

if it's all the same to you, i'd prefer to be alone.

no one asked you to get involved.

i don't have a choice. it's my duty.

you're interrupting me again.

can we talk about this another time?

you've been listening to me talk for an hour now.

how do you stay so positive all the time?

i'm perfectly content just the way i am, thank you very much.

can't you see they're taking advantage of you?

SUNSHINE CHARACTER

i wish you would just listen to what i have to say.

i have to try and stay positive. it's the only way we get through this.

nothing good can come from constant negativity.

i believe in myself because no one else will.

i've seen what happens when the bad outweighs the good.

we just have to stay strong.

you never know what someone is going through.

i am capable of more than you give me credit for.

i don't think you're a bad person.

there's so much more to life than this.

you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

have you tried being nice to them?

a compliment goes a long way.

i choose to be kind.

i just don't see the point in staying silent.

i'm just trying to look out for you.

there's no need to be rude.

we could work together as a team. did you ever think about that?

if you need my help, i'm here for you.

you should smile more often.

i wish you would just be yourself.

for what it's worth, i like who you are now.

we don't have to fight all the time.

being soft is not a weakness.

i want to make this work between us.

despite all that, i'm still here for you.

if you ever want to talk, i'm here to listen.

you're not as bad as you make yourself seem.

i've never seen you that way.

i've come to care about you.

[mcflymemes]

PROMPTS FOR THE FORCED PROXIMITY TROPE *  assorted dialogue for the moments and circumstances that force two characters to spend time together, adjust as necessary

who said i agreed to any of this?

i said i would help you. i didn't say i would be nice to you while i'm helping you.

you scratch my back and i'll scratch yours.

oh no. don't tell me it's locked.

i was hired to protect you. that's my job.

i'm actually starting to tolerate you, believe it or not.

i don't want to be stuck here with you.

i'll work with anyone but you.

i'm not letting you sleep on the floor.

they're forcing me to work with you and i don't like it.

how long do you think we'll be stuck here?

is that the only tent we have?

i think we're snowed in here. we'd better find a way to stay warm.

it's going to take a few days for them to reach us.

you sleep in that room, and i'll take this one.

you can't get rid of me that easily.

i'm just going to come right out and say it - i hate being here just as much as you do, but we have to make this work.

don't get any ideas.

i'm going to see if they'll switch my room.

until you came along, i had this under control.

if we're going to survive this, we'd better work together.

why did they sit me next to you?

i'd like to be as far away from you as possible.

out of all the people in the world, i had to get stuck with you.

guess you're just gonna have to get over it.

i thought you were worse than this.

i'm not going anywhere, and neither are you.

you're not exactly my favorite person to be around.

well, get used to it. i'm not leaving.

i told them i don't need a bodyguard.

i never wanted to spend this much time with you.

all this time spent together has really opened my eyes.

you're not as bad as i thought you were.

we might as well try to get along.

i guess i should learn a little bit about you.

i think that means we're the only ones left.

there's no way i'm sharing a room with you.

you again? i've seen enough of you already.

i thought [name] was coming. why are you here?

they're counting on us to save them.

since we'll be here for a while... might as well make the best out of it.

i think we can set aside our differences for two minutes and work this out.

honestly, i think i was wrong about you at first.

there's absolutely no way i'm working with you.

fine, but you're sleeping on the floor. i'll take the bed.

as your bodyguard, i'm supposed to stay with you at all times.

i think we're snowed in for a while.

you could always sleep on this side of the bed.

we have to at least pretend we like each other.

the whole point in having a bodyguard is for me to keep you safe.

i don't like asking for your help, but here i am, asking.

you and i are the only ones who can deal with this.

you don't have a say in the matter.

looks like we're stuck here.

just sleep in the bed with me. i'll even make a pillow wall between us.

i'm not sharing a tent with you.

i need you to stay out of my way.

could you at least "guard" me from over there? why do you have to stand so close?

017.   a  bonfire  at  the  lakeside .      @bu11seye

getting  away  for  the  weekend  with  jessie  had  been  like  a  breath  of  fresh  air.  as  much  as  elle  loved  the  bustling  new  york  city,  a  break  from  it,  however  short,  had  been  a    long  time  coming.  the  blonde  hadn’t  been  used  to  these  sorts  of  trips,  her  parents  were  always  so  busy  while  she  was  growing  up,  and  now  she  saw  how  much  she  missed  these  sorts  of  activities.  they  had  spent  the  whole  day  at  the  lake,  swimming  and  having  fun,  and  now  the  sun  was  starting  to  go  down.  the  fire  was  already  set,  and  all  they  had  to  do  now  was  get  their  things  in  place.  charlie  and  ham,  thankfully  already  tired  out  from  the  day’s  activities,  were  lying  down  in  a  puppy  pile,  ham  on  top  of  charlie,  and  it  was  the  cutest  sight  elle  has  ever  seen.

“  so,  what  do  you  think?  ”    the  blonde  asked,  showing  the  cozy  spot  she  set  up.    “  I  don’t  really  know  how  to  do  those  things  but  it’s  good  enough,  right?  ”    elle  nervously  fiddled  with  the  blankets  and  pillows  as  she  rambled,  anxious  to  know  jessie’s  opinion.  it  was  clear  that  she  was  nervous,  her  desire  for  approval  shining  through.
