Hmm? Uh, sometimes yeah, I’d go with friends and all…I uh, I didn’t go to college but the parties were prettty neat :D *goes over to her cabinet and pulling out another bottle, slowly opening it as she nods her head* Oh yeah? Well, just cause you’re not friendly doesn’t mean you can’t hang out with me *pouts, finally getting the bottle open* I’m thee onlly friend you need and thas it! 8takes a swig from the bottle, furrowing her brows and shaking her head* What makes you think I’m avoiding something, huh? Is there a huge sign on my forehead that says I am?

.-.

Heh, that’s the way to do it— college is a waste. A waste of money and a waste of time because of it - better off just getting the experience and saving your thousands. [Takes a long swig of the alcohol, trying to hide any bitter feelings welling up there.] Hm…? [Follows her across the room with his eyes.] Molls, you already know that. Hell, you’re one of the few people in town I see outside of the bar. I’m not sure whether that bodes ill for me or the town. [Shrugs, smirking lightly at her continued avoidance.] You might as well’ve put one there. I know better than anyone, Molls, why else start your boozing so early in the morning. That shit’s reserved for the unhappy folks who have too much on their minds and aren’t feeling satisfied with their lot. So what’s it for you, the farm giving you trouble? Someone in town? Or the Mafia finally catching up to you? [Grins around the rim of the bottle as he draws in another sip.]

WHAT!? /The dam breaks, quickly overtaken by the expanse of tears/ He can’t do that!…Can he? No! /shakes her head vigorously/ Besides! Jin wouldn’t do that…right? /searches his face for some sort of reassurance/ Omigosh…he would! Wouldn’t he? /clamps onto him, sobbing/ C-Chase! WhatamIgoingtodooooo? I’ll cut back! For a week even if he doesn’t take away all the sweets! Even if I eat a perfectly fine amount! And even if diabetes is a myth!

[Shakes his head sadly, pursing his lips and trying to keep back the hint of a smile even as she starts sobbing uncontrollably.] I’m sorry, Maya, he’s a doctor. He has me outranked. Half the town, really - he’s a powerful figure if you think about it. [Lowers his voice, glancing around.] He even has power over the mayor, you know - that’s why everyone is so nice to him. He’s our only doctor and he knows it. I’d be careful to make him upset with you. [Shakes his head again and attempts to make a small, forced reassuring smile.] You might have to store up and lie low with those treats for a while. I’d be scared if you get caught though, who knows what he would do then…?

*continues to pout at him, watching him carefully before quirking a brow mid sip as he turned to her, putting a hand up as she finishes the sip and turning to Chase* Not that f word. *whispers* Gill doesn’t like it when i use the word ‘fun,’ because my idea of fun scares him or something.

*puts her hand down before turning back to Gill* Yes, I know. But there are other ways to have a good time without having my kind of fun. *says the word rather harshly as if it’s a crude and dirty word, before giggling, standing up and walking over to her bookshelf, returning with a deck of cards, plopping it on the table in front of Gill* Cards. Simple, safe, doesn’t require any strenuous activity. How about it?

[Frowns at the whispered interchange - and winces slightly at the way she says the word fun. Doesn’t mind it as much as he lets on, but the way she said it— eugh.] …Tch.

[Watches as she comes back with a deck of cards, staring at it blandly as it’s set on the table in front of him.] Oh? Is that all? I suppose that’s fine. [Picks up the deck, slipping it from the sleeve and immediately setting to work counting the cards, making sure they’re all there as a force of habit.] Seems safe enough in theory.

[Clears his throat once more, trying to sip as he leans into her whisper - nodding with sudden realization.] Ah… I see. [Looks at Gill with raised eyebrows, sipping continually now without lowering them.]

Hm— [Tilts his glass slightly as he watches her set the cards down instead, making a face in amusement - opening his mouth to say something but holding his tongue for a moment longer. Finally can’t.] Heh, and what would you want to play with them? [Raises an eyebrow suggestively, tonguing the rim of his glass nonchalantly, violet eyes flicking between the two of them with a hint of a smirk.]

thecarpentersapprentice:

“Someone- anyone- heeeelp for the love of goddess, help me!”

[Watches him being dragged by.]

Huh.

[Calls out after him.] I don’t think that works the way you think it works, Bo! [Grins to himself.]

three-dollar-gill:

Probably because I’m the only person who notices how much you do it. [Watching the exchange with the bottle, now crossing his arms coldly over his chest.] 

I’m here because, whether you like the way I’ve chosen to express it thus far or not, I care about you. And I’d actually— sincerely dislike if you were to not remain a part of my life. [Glances away - eye catching on a discarded alcohol bottle halfway under the couch. Nudges it with the toe of his shoe before continuing.] In whatever capacity I deem appropriate, as it is my prerogative to do so.

Hrf—- [Shakes his head slowly against his hand, making a soft choking noise as he fights back reacting.] Right. Well— to— hell with that— you don’t even— hf— never even noticed I wasn’t— [Brings the bottle back up to his mouth, taking a longer drink of it with a deep choking in his chest as he swallows it down, settling his palm against his forehead this time.]

[Shakes slightly as he continues, shooting a spiteful glare across the room away from him - trying to think of anything he could go do to end the discussion.] Right— it’s all about— you— didn’t even consider me— did you— never fucking— crossed your mind. What I thought or— felt—. Goddess— dammit, Gill— [Starts shaking with a silent sob, burying his face again.] You’re a— hf— asshole—

*Lets out a tiny sigh before taking another bite of her food* I do so wish I could travel more, though I have a farm to tend to. Not to mention I get lost quite easily. *smiles pulling a strand of hair behind her ear* Hmm, I see your point. But don’t these ‘bad traits’ make us unique? And without that, why we are no different than anyone else. I rather be flawed than be perfect, and I am, as is everyone else in the world.

*waves her hand dismissively, smiling* Ah, it is quite alright. We all forget. I seem to have as well. I am Nori. *bows her head* It is a pleasure to meet you, Chase. *takes a few more mouthfuls of her meal, smiling with satisfaction as she eats*

[Watches her curiously for a moment before laughing lightly, more in a pleasant manner than insulting.] Heh, you didn’t strike me as a farmer, if I’m being completely honest— most farmers are a little more rough and tumble than you look. But, that’s not to say it’s a bad thing to get lost sometimes. It at least makes for an interesting day, am I right? [Smirks, laughing again under his breath.] I guess, but how many people appreciate a dog that bites and barks too much. Not much, at least not without a muzzle. [Grins as if implying he has a muzzle on right now.] But even still, some flaws are beautiful. I personally love a good set of flaws, I just hate my own.

[Nods again.] Hm— pretty name, I like it. Can’t say I ever knew a Nori before. [Grins wider.]

I don’t know, you’re the one that asked. I just said I could do it. … the dress looks good, anyways, leave it. [Huffs.] Now turn back around so I can keep working.

Right! *turns back around and continues flipping through magazine* I wanted to see if I could trick people into thinking I was Molly… We look similar enough, think it would work?

[Pokerface.] … you’re going to have to stuff your bra.
