location: anywhere in town!
“You’re kidding! And then what happened?” Lu asked, completely immersed in the other’s words.
“Then it turns out the fake fiancé was a con artist too! The con man ended up getting conned. Took the money and left him a ring. So now him and his family owe about 15 mill. Although how anyone can leave Milo Ventimiglia is beyond me.” Veronica said as he started to explain the show to Lu.

a small sigh escaping her lips, aylin shut her laptop off after she had bought the plane ticket. after getting word that the lioness she adored wasn’t doing well, going to see her and see if there was anything she could do was the only thing left she could offer. "maybe a week away from this town will be a good thing.“ she spoke to herself. at least she wouldn’t have to worry about what was going on while away. "it’s not selfish of me for actually wanting to get away, right?” she asked the person across from her. was it really a bad thing to even want to leave for a little while? everyone deserved a break at some point.
“I’ve been wondering if coming back was a good thing myself I’m afraid. I don’t know….” Veronica looks at her drink. “Sometimes I think Dorothy wasn’t 100% right. When she said there’s no place like home, maybe home isn’t a choice place or maybe I just haven’t found that place. I could also just be sleep deprived and rambling on.” Veronica said with a smile. “But now it’s not unless you want to leave for the wrong reasons.”

“Jesus Christ!” The very first words words to rush out of Jieun’s lips as she stood up from her seat—eyes wide as she witnessed the mark that would obviously stain her pair of jeans. “These are vintage Levi’s. Do you know how hard it was to get these?” First the death of Vivian, then the fires.. and now her favorite pair of jeans? This town was full of nothing but bad omens lately.
“Then I guess you should’ve watched what you were doing?” Veronica said as she watched the cut up quickly as the drink into her lap. “Besides you probably bought them at a discount store with what you thought was daddy’s money.” Veronica said as she dropped a napkin in front of her.
IGNORE ALL POSTS PAST THIS ONE.
harlow-harris:
Harlow thanked the barista with a smile, hands clasping around the hot coffee. It was finally getting cool enough that he was able to switch from iced coffees to normal ones. It was still nice enough that he was comfortable in his worn sweatshirt and jeans; but it was warm enough that he didn’t need a coat. Having spotted Veronica on a bench, he shook his head at her question, smiling lightly. “ ‘Course not Roni” He said, taking a seat before taking a sip of his drink. “Just been busy. How have you been?”
“Ahhh the third Harris sibling, where are the rest of the musketeers?” Veronica joked as she moved over so Harlow could have some room. She didn't know Boyd that well but she has grown close to Sawyer and she has known Harlow since high school. They were good people. “A cup of sunshine today, just enjoying some vitamin D. What about you?”
sydneyzello:
—&—
Sydney sat on the bench with a small huff. Her feet were killing her and she’d chosen the wrong day to break in her new heels. This much walking hadn’t been on her agenda when she’d gotten ready that morning. Smiling at Veronica beside her, Sydney shook her head, “If I was then sitting next to you now would’ve been the worst move in the playbook?”
“I saw you and realized it’s been a while since we’ve had a chat and caught up on things. Plus, my feet are killing me.” But at least she looked great in her new heels.
“Coming from you I might expect it” Veronica joked as she made room for her. “Well I’m not sure why you think walking in the park in heels would be a good idea, although they are gorgeous...Wait are those the new limited edition pair? My friend has style.”
“I know its been awhile, since I’ve returned I’ve been playing catch up with everyone. Anything new with you?”
alicechcung:

Alice turns towards the woman and smiles at them because it isn’t the first situation that she meets or speaks to someone due to her job and immediately forgets about them only to find herself in this odd exchange months later. “Hey, sorry. Not at all.” All she can hope for is the woman accidentally dropping her name so Alice doesn’t have the show her cards by asking it. “It’s a nice day. Are you out here enjoying the sun as well?”
“I’m sorry, Veronica Walsh. “ She said with a smile as she pulled out her hand for Alice to shake it. “We met a couple weeks ago, we didnt talk much but I said I wanted your thoughts on something and I’ll reach out when I can.” Meeting up with a investigative journalist might not be the best idea but at this point it was Veronica’s only option. “I am enjoying the sun, wanted to take a break from the indoors. The park always seemed to cheer me up. Do you come to the park alot?”
odionabaza:
In retrospect Odion preferred the crisp air that was soon to come. Not that he didn’t enjoy warmer weather but there was a certain essence that this season entailed. Usually, this time of ay he would be running with his ear phones blasting in his ear with his most up to date work out music playlist. However he decided to take it easy and just enjoy the way things were changing around him. “I think I would have been a little more stealthy if that were the case. But no.” A friendly smile surfaced. “I am just taking a walk. Trying to cut back on the coffee. Just don’t ask me how that’s going.” A faint chuckle now leaving his lips.
“Odion?? No way I havent seen you since- I don’t even know how long.” Veronica met Odion back in high school and they just hit it off since. He was one of the few people who didnt judge her based on her family, he treated her like she was Veronica and not a Walsh. “You cut back on coffee? That will be the day. What have you been up to?” Coffee was a need for her so she couldnt understand why anyone would want to or even give up on coffee.

Taking a walk to clear her head was something Sloane was doing more and more. She was in between work and she wasn’t ready to go home just yet so instead she found herself in the park, watching the people around her; couples holding hands, children playing, animals running around all of which made her smile. Half paying attention and half still watching the people around her, she noticed Veronica on the bench and moved toward her. “Me avoiding you? No way. How are you?”
“Taking a break from the dance academy? I could of sworn you lived and breathed there.” Veronica joked as she watched a few kids running after a soccer ball. She smiled as a memory popped into her head. A memory that now seems like a forgotten dream. “Ummm, I’m fine.” Hopefully sounding better out loud than how it sounds in her head. “What about you? I havent seen you in a while, how is everything?”

Hiten chuckled. “Okay, noted,” they said, “and don’t we all, compliments really are appreciated,” they added, grinning as they shook her hand. “So if not for singing, you must get them plenty for other reasons,” they added with a wink. “Since you are quite beautiful.” And they were one who enjoyed seeing people’s reactions when they did give out compliments. “Nope, I’m from the States, small town, obvious by my lack of Canadian accent. You?”
Veronica blushed at his compliment, she was always complimented on her looks but to have someone say it now after everything made her frazzled almost. “ Well you’re not so bad looking yourself. Flattering will get you everywhere. Are you sure you arent Canadian?” She teased them. “Ahhhh our neighbors from below, they doing okay? I was actually in the states not too long ago.”
“Born and raised, so Canadian I don’t travel without my bottle of maple syrup in the car. So if nobody has, let me officially welcome you to Canada. How about a drink? My treat.”
jjaspr:

Jasper’s still processing what the fuck Veronica’s just said when she starts in on him and he holds a hand up. “First of all, my life choices have never led to a family member walking in on me fucking their best friend, so jot that down. Second, I wasn’t judging you, I’m scared for you. This is sounding way too much like a sibling version of that surreal early two-thousands spouse swap show and I’m just trying to be your outside voice of reason.” He picks up a limp fry and points it at Veronica. “Fuck your bestie’s brother if you need to, just keep your brother out of it from now on. And if he’s fucking Lola and giving you shit for fucking Wilder just punch him in the throat next time and tell him to get over it. Some men need to be reminded every once in a while that we’re not living in puritanical New England where women get burned at the stake for the heinous crime of enjoying themselves. ”
“Oh my God, you need to get laid or something you have reached a whole new level of crazy. Well you know how men are, you’re sometimes one.” She said then went to drink her shake. In all honesty the silent treatment was getting to her. She has never had nobody not flat out talk to her and it was getting to be harder and harder to not go to his house and steal his dog or show up that precinct. “ Well enough about me, what’s new with you?”
Who: Open @vancitystarters
Where: The Park
Fall was one of Veronica’s favorite times of the year. The leaves changing, the fashion, the weather, the special moments during this time. It was one of the few things she held on to when she would feel at her worst. Maybe it’s because of the holidays or her birthday but fall was almost like her safety zone. Hearing someone approach her the bench she was on, she turned. “Hey stranger, long time no see. You aren’t avoiding me are you?” She said trying to sound cheerful.
sunshinelambert:
It was a day off for Kasey and she was glad to take a walk around the park. She was mostly on her way to do some tasks she had been putting off. So she was walking across the park. But soon saw a face, well a back of the head that she knew. Once she got closer she smiled as it was her friend. “Funny i was thinking the same thing that you ran away to the park to try and stay away from me” she teased. It wasn’t true, both were busy with work and life and that kept them apart. “But how are you doing lovely?” she asked with a smile.
“ And hide from my favorite bartender? I think you’ve had one too many drinks babe.” Veronica laughed and she went to hug Kasey. “I’m good just getting some fresh air, despite what people might think, rich people like the outisde too.” Veronica joked as she sat back down. “I’ve actually been meaning to ask you something.”

When a figure ran smack into him, Gavin groaned. Some of the club owner’s drink had spilled down his hand because of the impact and that wasn’t all that forgivable. The second he was able to note who had the misfortune of receiving his wrath, the former champion’s mood shifted. He smirked. “Aww shucks, that would’ve made me feel so much better.” Dark eyes wandered south, taking in the vision she was in her dress and remembering how much better she looked out of it. “I think you owe me a drink.”
“ You know I always knew you were stupid, I just didnt think you were actually that stupid enough to believe in your small head attached to your small body that I would waste my money on you and buy you drink.” Veronica snapped at Gavin, someone who she wished she never crossed that line with now that she thinks about it. She felt his gaze on her and tried to shut down that feeling. She turned her body. “Stop doing that, its weird, And what are you even doing here?”
seydaxbulak:
“Are you at least enjoying being back home?” She knew that the Walsh family could be - different. And she wondered if Veronica was actually enjoying being back home, genuinely. “Only a few months ago, well,” she paused, twisting her lips, “yeah only a few months ago I really started to pursue it seriously,” she admitted to Veronica as she thought back to the timeline of everything. At the mention of the woman’s parents, the brunette nodded her head, “Is that not what parent’s are for?” Though she knew her own parent’s driving her crazy was not quite the same as the Walsh family.
“It’s been a....challenge?” Veronica laughed. “Honestly I’m happy to be home I really am, its just a lot you know? Everyone wants to be a Walsh until they are actually a Walsh.” She loved her family more than anything, hell it’s why she’s doing all of this. However sometimes she feels that the family was just exhausting. “I mean you should know you worked for him.”
“Really? Do you need clients? You know I do have a birthday coming up you know? I'm thinking Halloween mascarade party.....I guess but its also my brother. Maybe its part of being a Walsh. How are your parents doing?”

“Well you’ve come to the right place, I’m in a very helpful mood. Maybe I can guide you on those directions,” she grinned at the other before shrugging. “But no–seriously, come sit and chill with me.” It was always nice to catch up with a friend, especially since every single time she and Ronnie had been trying to meet up–things were not going nearly as well. Those words of being fine coming from the other didn’t seem completely truthful but Sanem wouldn’t ambush her right away. Instead she nodded and smiled at the other, “cruise was nice–hung out with some friends mostly.” She told the other before rolling her eyes at being called out. “Rude, I didn’t want to leave our time together but it was a big deal–I made a nice commission off it,” she admitted before telling the other that it wouldn’t happen today. “So far I’m without any appointments or calls so we should be okay, but if it does happen–I will try and see if I can try to fix it while being here with you. Deal?”
“I’m not sure if you can help this time but two heads are better than one.” Veronica wasn't sure if, no she was pretty sure Sanem wouldn't be able to help her. But she figured she could at least try. She sat down next to her. “Sounds like you had fun though and I’m glad, you deserve it.” She said with a soft smile. “Deal.” Being outside, in the vast outdoors helped Veronica’s increasing heart rate as her anxiety started to rise. The park was mostly quiet except for a few animals and a handful of people. However, the inside of Veronica was like a raging sea, it was like someone screaming for help but unfortunately, nobody was there to hear the call. “Umm...the thing is....” Veronica meant to get through this conversation without crying but the tears started as soon as she spoke. “I’m stuck and scared and I....have no idea what to do.” She struggled to get those words out as she attempted to dry her tears.

“ Did you always want to be a Vet or was it something your family wanted and you just grew to love it?” She knows her dad loved being a cop and her mom loved law but Veronica always wondered if they always did? Did people always love the career they chose? From beginning to end? Through the good and bad?
“Ahhhh it’s always love related huh? Just be careful with everyone involved okay? Including yourself. Sometimes we want to do what we think is right for the other person that we forget about how it’s affecting ourselves.” Veronica clearly speaking from experience.
Veronica couldn’t help but smile thinking about Bram. “I do at least I hope. It’s nothing against Ben but the bond is just different with with Bram. I know people are surprised because it’s usually same gender siblings that are the closest. I just can’t explain it. Do you have siblings?”
“Oh, no, something I’ve always wanted. I think my parent’s were worried about how much I was an animal lover. They were worried I’d bring unexpected pets into the house.” And there were times that he did, especially when he was younger. He had always wanted to help animals in need out which is how he got into volunteering at the shelter. His parent’s figured it was the best way for him to take his need to help and have a positive outlet for it. “Always love related,” there had been a time in his life, back in high school, where love had been simple, it had been easy and he had done nothing but blow up his own life recently. He nodded his head to her words, “It’s easy to get lost in the fray.” Armin noted in response. Nodding his head to her words, “I’d say I get it, but no,” he hook his head, “I grew up with no siblings,” as an only child he really didn’t understand a strong sibling bond outside one that he formed with close friends but he knew that it was not the same. As his phone went off in his pocket, he looked up at Veronica, “Ah, work calling already. I will see you around, Veronica,” he smiled at her as he stood up, brushing the sand from his pants. “The animals await.”
END.
