“Are you sure about that?” Bill couldn’t help joking at her question, while feeling happy the general rapport between them hadn’t seemed to change even with the time away. “Because my surprises usually involve pranks, but I guess I’ll be good tonight since it’s someone else’s birthday party.” He nodded a little at her answer as he met Zoë’s gaze again, especially when it was the same reason he’d ventured out to LA in hopes of having some fun and seeing some familiar faces. “I know what you mean. Realized I was spending way too much time at home when my own kid asked if I was a couch bum,” he joked, shaking his head a little with a laugh. “So trying to shake that reputation.” As Bill listened to Zoë go over what she’d done at the party so far, the image of her beating a kid at skee ball instantly made him grin. “Wow, Zoë the skee ball terror. Scaring all the kids,” he joked and laughed again. “Don’t mind me needing to see that for myself. But drinks first sounds good to me. Lead the way.” He motioned to the bar with a flourish before falling into step with her. “So, are you still a whiskey girl, or is my memory shaky?” he asked, leaning a little against the bar once they’d reached it.

"Slightly sure," Zoë joked in reply, and was happy that interacting with Bill felt as easy as it always had. "I never minded your pranks, when they weren't directed at me of course, but good of you to behave yourself for the sake of a birthday party." Giving him an easy smile, then lets out a light chuckle when he speaks of his daughter and what she'd asked. "Getting called out by your own kid, that's got to be rough," she teases, "but if it got you to hop on a plane to Los Angeles she must have known that was the right motivation." As Zoë listed off the things she'd done so far, she didn't miss his grin and just laughs before shrugging. "Boy came in talking a whole lot of shit, had to put him in his place," she replied with a grin. "And he had a bunch of little friends with him, so I'm sure I can do an encore later." Zoë just nods when Bill agrees to drinks, and when he says to lead the way, she moves toward the bar with purpose, leaning against it once they reach it, and tries to make eye contact with one of the bartenders. She offers Bill a soft smile at his question before giving him a little nod. "Memory is still in tact, I'm still a whiskey girl and I've already had 3 tonight. We'll just order you 4 fingers right from the start that way we'll be even."

alexander had decided that making the trip to la would be good for him – he’d been a little down, and figured that partying would be exactly what the doctor ordered. he’d just sat himself down at the bar to start his night of drinking, when he felt someone move in beside him. alexander raises a brow slowly – even though zoë isn’t looking at him or speaking to him and watches in amusement as she orders a drink. alexander nods at the bartender, not even sure what she’d ordered, but got himself one as well – then let’s out a soft laugh at his friends big smile and her finally speaking to him. “why am i the last person you’d expect to run into here? think i’m too old to enjoy a little bit of fun?” he asked in a slightly fake hurt tone, but then soon was giving zoë a smile again,  "and i’m happy to see you as well, it’s been a while. how have you been?“

Zoë smiled when Alexander states he'd like the same drink she has, without even waiting to see what she was drinking. Though the actress had always been a whiskey drinker, and she knew that wouldn't put her friend off, since they had shared a glass of whiskey or two before. "I wasn't going to say anything, but...." Zoë starts to say on Alexander's comment about his age, amusement obvious in her words. "Truthfully I just didn't expect you of all people to be in Los Angeles, but it's good seeing you here and are you having a little bit of fun?" Alexander was right, it had been a while since they'd seen each other last, probably when they were still filming together. Zoë really had been dropping the ball on keeping up with friends. The actress just shrugged and gave him a smile at his question, taking a sip of her whiskey before answering him. "I had a rough go of it for a while, kept busy with work but have been recently enjoying a nice vacation at my dad's in Paris, what about you?"

dcveycamrns​:

Zoe babe! I’m so glad to see you! How was travelling? Tell me everything about your trip, but only after we play air hockey, because I feel like it’s completely necessary. @zoebellaz​

I'm happy to see you, Dove! It was hard leaving Paris, but I knew I couldn't pass up a good party. We're playing air hockey? I'll warn you,  I'm a champion air hockey player, the Wayne Gretzky of air hockey, if you will. I hope you're prepared for that?

It wasn’t originally Bill’s plan to fly out to Los Angeles, though he figured he’d already accumulated a record number of days in his apartment wearing pajamas that perhaps a night out with friends would do him some good. Because aside from outings with his daughter, Bill was convinced he’d worn a good groove into his couch and needed to do more with his time before said time was claimed by work. It’d been so long since Bill had been to a proper party that wasn’t for work that on arrival, his eyes scanned the bowling alley, a little unsure of what to do first without the typical script of press premieres usually provided. He hadn’t bowled in so many years that he didn’t remember exactly the last time he’d gone to an alley, and should he do that first? Or perhaps have a drink? His internal script was interrupted the moment Zoë came into view and he smiled at the sight of an old friend, slightly estranged by busy work schedules but taking comfort in her appearance all the same. “You know me, always full of surprises,” he teased, and didn’t hesitate in giving her a light hug. “But speaking of, I didn’t think you’d abandon Paris to party it up here, especially with an unsophisticated slob like myself,” Bill joked, easing back to look at her. “You having fun so far?” 

The actress had never been to XLanes before, and it had been a while since she'd really partied, but she'd told herself it was going to be a good night all around regardless. She didn't really know many people at the party, but that wasn't going to stop her from having a good time. Though Zoë would admit she was a lot happier when people she did know started to show their faces, especially faces she hadn't seen in a long time, like Bills. The dark-haired actress truly did feel bad that they had lost touch for so long, both of them just so busy that falling out of contact had been easy. But Zoë was glad he was here now, and maybe they could at least make up for lost time. "That was always the best part of knowing you, your surprises," she joked, and eases into the hug he gives her and makes sure to hug him back. "Realized I was spending a little too much time by myself and should grace others with my presences for just a little bit. Even the unsophisticated like you," Zoë teases, looking up at him with a broad smile as he looks at her, then nods at his question. "I've hustled some pool, had a few drinks with your brother. Oh, and completely owned some little kid at skee ball and just tried to bowl, but this shirt was not made for bowling. But now that you're here, I think we should catch you up with the drinks I've already had, what do you say?"

[zoebellaz]

Zoë had decided to bowl for a little bit and the actress started to second guess the shirt she'd worn. Every time she tried to toss the ball down the lane, her shirt would shift and Zoë nearly became a part of a whole different level of entertainment for the party. Deciding to call it quits before she was asked to leave the alley for indecent exposure, Zoë made her way toward the bar and figured she'd have a few more rounds of drinks. As the dark-haired actress approaches the bar, she spots her second Skarsgård of the night walking through the door. If Zoë had been shocked that her friend Alexander was here, she was far more surprised by the sight of his brother Bill. Though equally as pleased to see him as she was to see Alexander, if not more so, especially for it being so long since she and Bill had shared the same space. Weaving her way through some people, Zoë approaches Bill with a big smile on her face, though she's pretty sure he doesn't notice her until she's right in front of him. "Of all the bowling alleys in all the towns in all the world," Zoë's states in an instantly teasing and friendly tone while looking up at him,  "and Bill Skarsgård walks into this one. I was skeptical about making the trip from Paris for a few days to Los Angeles, but now I'm glad I did. This is a very pleasant surprise." ( @hwbigs​ )

[zoebellaz]

Zoë had been messing around in the arcade, mostly trying to relive her youth, when she caught sight of someone very tall out of the corner of her eye. She had to look twice because the last person she'd expected to see at this party was her friend Alexander. Zoë finished the game she was playing, then moved after the tall blonde in hopes of getting his attention. When Alexander stops at the bar, Zoë settles herself along side him without saying anything, and orders herself a drink. Once her drink is slid toward her and Zoë picks it up, she then looks over and up at the tall man that's standing beside her and gives him a big smile. "I've got to admit, Alexander, you're the last person I expected to run into here, but I'm happy to see you." ( @alexjhs​ )

[zoebellaz]

Zoë had gone back and forth with the idea of coming to Los Angeles for the party, not sure if she had wanted to leave Paris, even if just for a few days. But in the end, she knew she wanted to catch up with a couple of friends, and also show some support to the birthday girl. She'd been at XLanes for about an hour now, and Zoë had just hustled some guys out of their money in pool when she spotted the birthday girl. She weaved her way through the crowd and made her way to where Normani was standing, instantly offering the younger female a tight hug and a big smile. "Hello there, gorgeous and happy birthday," Zoë stated brightly before pulling back enough to look the other female over,  "you look stunning by the way."

hwmackayg​:

Congratulations on directing your first film, that’s quite exciting! What kind of film will it be? I completely understand the need for being balanced, especially when you’re embarking on something new and want to put your best into it. Plus sometimes all you need is getting in touch with your past self for that reassurance and comfort. It just means you’ll have all the more fun exploring the city, yeah? She is indeed, and very small world! I feel a bit silly having forgotten that he and Lil’s mum dated, though she’s wonderful to be around. How’d you like the places Lil recommended? Which my bias says they were wonderful because she has such good taste. We try to visit Paris when work allows, though we’re both excited since we have upcoming projects that will film in the city! So we’ll get to stay in our place longer than we usually would, us and the pets. And do, I think you’d like those places in London, along with the weather being quite exceptional these days. Even with some rain, at least it’s still warm. The Catacombs are certainly an interesting place, even if I’m one of those people who jumps at everything and wants to link arms with everyone just to be safe. You’ll certainly have to let me know how you like the other places I recommended, though!

Thank you, it's something I've wanted to do for years now. And it'll be a thriller, it's called Pussy Island and it's meant to be one of those films that keeps you on the edge of your seat. We'll be filming in Mexico, it's going to be a lot of fun, but it's also nerve-wrecking since this will be my directing debut. Which means I want to be as relaxed and as calm as possible, and thankfully I've managed to have that so far while on vacation here. Don't feel silly. I think a lot of people have forgotten since it was so long ago, but she is wonderful and is the reason I speak perfect French. I really loved the places that Lily recommended, especially Bibliothèque Sainte Geneviève because I am in love with that place and have visited it more times than I'd like to admit since she suggested it. I'm an avid reader, though, and that place is like porn to me. You both have upcoming projects that'll have you in Paris? That's amazing, hopefully it'll be while I'm still here so we can maybe meet up for lunch? Though since London is such a short distance, I'd gladly meet you two for lunch there. You're someone that needs to link arms with someone to feel safe and jumps at everything? I'm a little surprised by that, but I know not everyone likes being scared or likes dark things! Oh, and I loved every bit of the places you suggested I go to in London. I even found this amazing vegan bakery while I was in London, that I fell in love with, so I'm really glad I went there for the weekend.

The city has a certain charm no one can deny. Even if you say you’re not romantic at all, you will still get a good vibe when you’re there. Oh I’m a little jealous. My French is not good at all. Maybe I need to start learning it.

I always feel horribly single whenever I'm in Paris. Even though there are a lot of things to do for single people, with it being such a romantic place, it just makes you feel single. I'm pretty lucky that my dad was pretty set on me learning French at a young age. It's the only reason it stuck with me. But it's not a bad idea to learn. It's such a gorgeous language.

[zoebellaz]

dcveycamrns​:

Well, duh, it’s us and its Paris. It’s impossible to not have fun with those two scenarios.

Which just means that whenever you've got free time, you need to hop on a plane and come to Paris while I'm here. I plan on being here till August so that means I plan on seeing you a few more times! I'll be insulted if you don't come see me again.

[zoebellaz]

kaiagerberx​:

somewhere far away from LA is the perfect place to unwind then, so Paris seems like a great choice. if its your happy place, stay as long as you’re able to! that’s a vibe you have to hold on to.  It’s in Muskoka, right on a lake, it’s literally like its own little resort, best place ever. yeah exploring around Paris is a great activity in itself, its incomparable to anything we have here in the states, i think. 

I don't think I've ever been to Muskoka, but now you've got me curious about it since you're saying it's the best place ever. Maybe next time I just want to randomly travel someplace, I'll pick there to see what it's all about. I agree that there is no place that compares to Paris in the States. It's just something really special and you just feel so charmed and happy whenever you're here. It's why I don't really plan on leaving until August.

[zoebellaz]

dcddydcmctria​:

now that’s what we like to hear. the ultimate treating yourself. not really. i’ve always been so busy just going from one place to another. and when i have a day break, i sleep for i don’t know how many fucking hours.

That's the best part of a vacation, isn't it? Where you treat yourself, and just make sure you're center and calm. At least that's how I've always felt regarding taking a vacation. That sucks that you don't really get to see the sights while you travel, but I can understand needing to sleep a lot when you're always on the go when you finally catch a break.

[zoebellaz]

weirdbarzy​:

enjoy the time while you have it, as i always say. like i was so sure i would have all the time to myself now that my season was over, but then team canada came round. so kinda glad i used my week off to the fullest. finland’s so beautiful, i got a few days between games so i walked around on one of our two day breaks with two of the guys. definitely recommend if you can get over here on your downtime to see it again. gorgeous scenery. oh, new york is never not busy so i get it as i live on long island. lucky if you find five minutes where someone isn’t screaming or doing something at 10 pm. that’s awesome, though. always good to have a buddy when you’re out of country, make sure you’re doing okay and all. what were the suggestions? might need to add em to my list for when i visit paris.

That's very much how I feel since I'm normally always booked and busy. I never have the amount of free time that I would like. But I also really like to be kept busy, so it's pretty much my fault that I don't have enough time off as often as I'd like. Is your time in Finland over? How did your team end up doing? I'm going to be in Paris until August, likely, only going back to the states if I completely have to, so I should have time to visit Finland! Even though New York is ridiculous a lot of the time, I couldn't imagine myself living anywhere else. Though in my neighborhood they're always yelling at 3am, luckily I'm usually a sound sleeper. They suggested bike riding around the city and just finding things on my own, letting my foodie side take over and just eating my way around Paris. But my favorite things that were suggested were Paris Catacombs,  Canal Saint-Martin and Bibliothèque Sainte Geneviève, which was my favorite!
