Chase sniffled, doing her best to not let the tears roll down her cheeks as she stared at the vending machine in front of her. It was no big deal. Only a few quarters. But she was hungry. She felt herself tense when she heard someone behind her. Quickly, she wiped her eyes, forced on a smile and turned. “Sorry, am I in your way?”

       aside  from  his  initial  realization  that  this  girl  was  familiar  because  they  had  spoken  before,  it  was  also  easy  to  pick  up  on  how  distraught  she  was.  ❝  no,  you're  fine  where  you  are.  is  everything  all  right  ??  you  seem  upset.  ❞  his  gaze  travelled  to  the  vending  machine  in  front  of  them.  ❝  did  this  eat  your  money  ??  ❞

“Sure, that’s a great story… also one that I totally didn’t ask for. I just approached you because you seem to have dropped this so I’m here to give it back…”  @vestalanding​

       ❝  oh,  i  see.  ❞  yanzhen  blinked,  hands  automatically  coming  out  to  pat  his  jacket  pockets  and  relaxing  once  he  felt  his  wallet  in  the  fabric.  ❝  i  was  complimenting  you  on  your  shoes,  but  that  can  wait.  what  was  it  that  i  dropped  ??  ❞

“for my newest role - i’m a girl who works a bakery shop- so i decided to really give method acting a try, and I baked some shortbread cookies- just like my mamá used to make. -will you pretty please do me the honours and try one? I need to know if they’re good or not- and I feel like i’ll be a little bit biased.” ( @vestalanding​ 

       ❝  as  long  as  you  don't  go  the  route  of  jared  leto  method  acting  then  i  think  you  should  be  fine.  as  a  general  rule  of  thumb  and  from  bad  past  experiences,  i  don't  accept  food  from  strangers  so  i  hope  you  can  understand.  otherwise  i'm  sure  your  cookies  taste  delicious.  ❞

       ❝  if  you  like  the  american  version  of  the  show  then  i  highly  recommend  watching  the  other  versions,  especially  the  korean  one  where  it  originated.  i  may  be  biased  in  saying  the  chinese  one  is  my  favorite  but  regardless,  i  found  that  the  american  version  focuses  more  on  the  visual  performance  aspect  than  the  vocal  performance.  it's  still  a  very  enjoyable  show  though.  ❞

“So I was at the cutest little shop downtown when I found this little guy! It’s a little Pikachu! Pretty cute, right?”

@vestalanding​

       ❝  it's  cute,  i  admit.  what  do  you  plan  on  doing  with  it  ??  ❞

“Hm, I’ve been collecting the apples from a tree near my home for years and I may clarify that there is nothing wrong with them. What kind of literature are you reading, to be exact?”

       ❝  with  this  new  information  may  i  present  a  follow  up  question  ??  exactly  how  old  are  these  apples  then  ??  ❞  yanzhen  asked  with  raised  eyebrows.  ❝  how  about  snow  white,  the  story  of  adam  and  eve,  and  the  greek  myth  of  paris  and  the  apple  just  to  name  a  few.  there's  a  perilous  history  of  accepting  apples  from  those  unknown  to  us  as  showcased  in  literature.  ❞

[zhaoyanzhen]

fur-elise-jung​:

“Hey, you look hungry! Would you like an apple? It is really good, I swear!”

@vestalanding​

       ❝  i  have  to  admit  i'm  rather  concerned  as  to  where  you  found  that  apple  to  begin  with.  it's  proven  in  literature  that  accepting  apples  from  strangers  can  be  bad  for  your  overall  health.  ❞

is a poptart a ravioli? follow up question: is a calzone a ravioli?

 ❝  very  thought  provoking  and  creative.  ravioli  is  mainly  pasta  so  unless  there  are  pasta  flavored  poptarts  then  i  would  say  unfortunately  no.  a  calzone  is  just  a  folded  pizza  so  again,  sorry  to  say  no.  ❞

[zhaoyanzhen]

have a beautiful house and an ugly car or an ugly house and a beautiful car?

 ❝  i  don't  have  a  drivers  license  and  usually  have  a  driver  with  me  so  the  car  isn't  important.  i  suppose  a  beautiful  house  considering  i  would  be  spending  more  time  in  it  than  my  hypothetical  car.  ❞

“Candy’s a great way to make friends, though, isn’t it?” Lysa grinned, a slight tilt to her head. “No, yeah, those are part of the Halloween line too, I think, but I’m pretty sure I saw something called ‘vampire kisses’ going around the social media the other day? Milk chocolate as well, but with some kind of red berry-flavored filling.. Rasperry or strawberry or something like it? Didn’t see any of those, did you? Oh, and how many bags did you end up getting? Cause if it’s more than four then I may be able to free you of one..” 

       ❝  that  is  true.  nothing  brings  people  together  like  having  a  sweet  tooth  if  halloween  is  anything  to  go  by.  then  again,  i've  been  invited  to  many  parties  over  the  year  and  the  appeal  for  most  is  the  alcohol  and  not  so  much  the  candy.  ❞  yanzhen  answered,  matching  her  smile  with  his  own.  ❝  oh,  i  haven't  seen  any  of  those  when  i  bought  them  but  if  i  had  then  i  definitely  would've  gotten  those.  adds  more  of  a  kick  to  the  standard  milk  chocolate  expectation.  alas,  i  don't  have  much  experience  with  kissing  vampires  so  i  can't  say  much  of  comparison  but  i  take  that  the  fruit  filling  is  meant  to  be  like  ...  blood  ??  perhaps  ??  unless  i'm  thinking  too  much  into  it.  i  may  have  bought  six  so  if  you'd  like  two  bags  then  i  won't  be  all  that  upset  to  part  with  them.  ❞

     “Broadway baby, yeah.” She explained with a smile. The simple thought of being back in New York, dancing across the house stage, belting out notes she’d spent hours perfect, and delivering lines a different way each night to gage reactions —- there was nothing else that could bring a brighter smile to her face. “Thank you. Both for the compliment, and the water. It feels like the sahara in my throat.” She teased as she took the bottle from him, popping it open immediately.

       ❝  that's  amazing.  you're  very  talented  so  it  makes  sense  now  that  you  mention  it.  ❞  yanzhen  replied,  awe  evident  in  his  tone  since  the  idea  of  broadway  was  way  beyond  his  talent  levels.  while  he  was  used  to  having  a  multitude  of  eyes  following  his  movements  on  a  fashion  runway,  he  was  being  assessed  for  the  designer  clothing  on  his  body  and  not  his  talent.  ❝  what  made  you  decide  to  swap  out  the  bright  lights  of  broadway  for  the  renaissance  fair  here,  if  you  don't  mind  me  asking  ??  it  seems  like  a  stark  change  of  pace.  do  you  have  family  here  ??  ❞

“Ohhhh, just life!” She chirped as she went to sit beside him. “He seemed to be having a good day, though!”

       ❝  can  you  speak  to  all  animals  or  just  goats  ??  ❞  yanzhen  asked  after  a  moment's  pause,  deciding  to  indulge  int  he  conversation  for  a  while  longer.  ❝  i'd  hope  it  was  having  a  good  day  considering  being  pet  by  a  multitude  of  strangers  in  one  day  seems  tiring.  ❞

     “You don’t know the importance of projection until you’re forced to act without a mic.” Trixie spoke as she stepped off the makeshift wooden stage. Given the opportunity she would take any chance to get back on the stage. Even one the wobbled under her feet in an open space that smelled like burnt food and an assortment of animals. “Do happen to know where a water stand is? My throat is so dry now.”

@vestalanding​

       yanzhen  cocked  his  head  in  thought  from  her  comment.  while  he,  too,  did  act,  his  involved  expensive  mic's  to  pick  up  on  sound  rather  than  intense  projection  on  his  part.  ❝  are  you  a  theater  actor  ??  ❞  he  asked  in  genuine  curiosity  before  offered  out  his  own  unopened  water  bottle  that  he  had  bought  minutes  earlier.  ❝  i  just  bought  this  not  long  ago  and  i  haven't  opened  it  yet  if  you  want  it.  projection  aside,  i  think  you  do  a  great  job.  ❞

( @vestalanding​ )

Olivia was not going to get on stage, not when it was to do something she didn’t excel at, and juggling wasn’t on her list of talents. Seeing the performing head her way Olivia quickly stepped behind the person beside them, “you look like you have much better juggling skills than me” she shot them an apologetic look.

       time  seemed  to  slow  for  yanzhen,  not  quite  processing  the  words  of  the  younger  girl  beside  him  before  the  entertainer  was  in  front  of  him  and  offering  him  the  objects  to  juggle.  ❝  i  —  what  ??  ❞  his  confusion  turned  to  embarrassment  as  the  encouragement  of  the  performer  gave  way  to  disappointment  from  yanzhen's  failed  juggling  attempt.  when  they  walked  away  to  find  another  target,  yanzhen  breathed  out  a  sigh  of  relief  and  turned  to  the  young  girl  with  a  frown.  ❝  that  was  completely  horrible  and  embarrassing.  please  don't  do  that  again.  ❞  he  shook  his  head  with  a  slight  chuckle.

“I picked up a smoothie on the way here. It may not mix well with turkey legs, but life’s already made me sick today, so what’s one more thing.” She mumbled as she sipped the smoothie and took a bite of the turkey leg. She’d had the worst morning ever, so yes, maybe she was feeling a little extra bitchy today. “But hey, I did see a goat today!”

@vestalanding​

       ❝  that  sounds  awfully  pessimistic.  ❞  yanzhen  observed  thoughtfully  as  he  studied  the  brunette.  ❝  it's  good  at  least  that  you  can  see  the  silver  linings  of  the  day  despite  the  negatives.  it  can  only  go  up  from  here,  is  what  i  like  to  say.  i'm  sorry  your  day  wasn't  kind  to  you  though.  especially  with  all  of  the  festivities  going  on  currently.  ❞

kodey-hollow​:

“Fun fact, I can actually speak goat. No kidding, I was at the petting zoo and I had a whole conversation with this little guy!” She chirped before imitating the animal, unable to resist giggling to herself.

@vestalanding​

       yanzhen's  gaze  drifted  away  from  the  chicken  skewer  in  his  hand  and  eyed  the  woman  beside  him  warily.  ❝  what  was  is  that  you  both  were  talking  about  then  ??  ❞

[zhaoyanzhen]

“wait, i can’t speak…” karyanne rested her hand on the other person’s shoulder and attempted to catch her break from her performance. “i think i’m getting too old for that! my horoscope was right, something definitely left me breathless today.” she laughed with an apologetic shrug. “my bad, what were you saying?” @vestalanding​

       ❝  it's  okay.  take  your  time  to  catch  your  breath.  ❝  yanzhen  said  with  a  light  breath  of  a  laugh.  ❝  i  was  just  saying  you  did  a  great  job.  i  have  two  left  feet  so  i  could  probably  do  none  of  that.  ❞
