˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡. IF THERE WAS ONE THING WES TOOK PRIDE IN HIS BRITISH ROOTS, IT WAS THE TALENTED MUSICAL ARTISTS WHO HAILED FROM THE SAME PLACE AS HIM. So when he heard the familiar voice of Dua Lipa as he entered the store, Wesley was pleasantly surprised. Was Birdie doing a listening party at the store? Wes had become somewhat of a regular at Casa Dragones, often visiting to chat with Birdie during his free time or to restock his supply of card sleeves for his growing Magic: The Gathering collection. He expected to see them but not someone else behind the counter. ❝ I already know what I need but, thanks, mate. ❞ he responded politely. ❝ Excellent choice, by the way...with the music, I mean.❞

for @valpostart location: casa dragones

he hardly looks up from his phone when the door opens but at least turns down the music (the This is Dua Lipa spotify playlist), greeting, "welcome in. let me know if there's anything i can help ya find." of course, he would love more than anything if the guest did not need help looking for something, but he thinks it's probably the correct thing to say. "i think we're runnin' some sorta bogo deal on comics." he says with the confidence of chad danforth of high school musical fame trying to dance for the first time. omar considers, briefly, that maybe he should have read the text birdie sent him this morning concerning opening.

˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡. ❝ PERHAPS OFFERING THEM AN INCENTIVE WOULD HELP? Like a reward or something. Aren't most kids motivated by that? ❞ Ysla suggested as she accepted the papers from Sarah. As she skimmed through the stack, she realized she might have underestimated the number of kids who had forgotten to write out their names. It was going to be a challenge, but she wasn't one to give up easily. Hearing Sarah's offer made Ysla perk up. She could volunteer during her free time, which she mostly spent at the beach. ❝ You know what... sure, I'll do it. I've got the time and would love to help out. ❞ It was all the more reason to extend her stay in the region, right? ❝ I never asked, but how's teaching the big kids treating you, by the way? Well you know, aside from forgetting to write their name. Are they easier to manage than the little ones? ❞

Sarah slides her half of her stack of assignments, nodding at the question. "You'd think they would have learned by now, at their big ages, right? Let me get you a class list, give you somewhere to start at least." Finds a piece of blank paper mixed in with the others to ( neatly, legibly ) write out a list. "I'm more than happy to put in a good word for you if you're looking for something to do for a couple hours a week." She smiles. Serious or not, the offer is open and genuine. No such thing as too many volunteers "Always looking for people."

˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡. ❝ OH, DON'T BE SILLY, YOU'RE PAID TO LOOK PRETTY. It's literally what you do for a living. How am I supposed to compete with you? ❞ Aivryn teased, with a smile. ❝ And I meant that with no offense. You're always just so...put together, ❞  Her eyes widened almost comically when he he pulled out her chair for her. It took her a second to register what happened before Aiv thanked him and settled down in her seat.  Acts of service were her main love language, and Kaito was certainly hitting the mark. ❝ Are you trying to look more perfect? ❞ She blurted out before she could stop herself, immediately regretting her words. ❝ Sorry, what I meant to say was...—you know what, forget I said that, ❞ she quickly added, before looking away as her cheeks flamed. After a moment, Aivryn lightly cleared her throat, still avoiding his gaze. ❝ Yeah, no, I'm fine...Well, not really, ❞ she admitted hesitantly. Aivryn wasn't used to sharing her feelings, as they were often invalidated. She had learned to bottle things up, a skill she believed she had perfected over the years. ❝ It's nothing, don't worry about it. I don't want to bring the mood down or anything... ❞ Aiv tried to downplay it, her fingers nervously twisting the thin gold band around her middle finger, a habit she had picked up long ago. The ring matched one that Abril wore. It was a gift Aivryn had gotten them as a symbol of their friendship (more like as a symbol of them being wives but it was the same thing.)

             ꒰ა  ♡  ໒꒱--—  "  for  once  ?  ah,  don't  say  that,  i  don't  think  i  could  ever  compete  with  you.  "  high  praise  from  a  man  who  makes  great  effort  to  consistently  be  the  prettiest  in  the  room.  he  thinks  it's  sweet  how  aivryn  smiles  when  he  compliments  her  like  that,  and  he's  always  happy  to  make  a  friend  smile.  and  aivryn  deserves  it.  "  of  course,  i'm  only  telling  the  truth  —  oh,  thank  you  —  i  just  threw  this  on.  "  that's  a  complete  lie.  he  spent  two  hours  getting  ready,  because  he  always  does. he  pulls  aivryn's  chair  out  for  her  when  they  go  to  sit  down,  pushing  her  in  before  going  to  slide  into  the  seat  across  from  her.  a  bright  smile  sent  her  way,  "  i'm  good,  i'm  glad  you  could  come  out  today  because  i  really  did  not  want  to  spend  all  day  at  the  gym  again  —  "  as  if  he's  forced.  his  eyes  immediately  flick  up  to  meet  hers,  though,  softening  at  the  same  time  his  tone  does,  "  needed  company  ?  how  come,  are  you  okay  ?  "

˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡. MUCH TO AIVRYN'S DELIGHT, THEY DIDN'T NEED A PASSWORD TO GET IN. The details of how they had found the right church and entered already a blur. The surge of adrenaline had drowned out the specifics, leaving only a vague memory of nervous anticipation. She was thankful they didn't have to answer some question to get in or else that would've been a problem. Aiv jumped up and down as the music grew louder the moment they got inside. Some Taylor Swift remix that she was positive Noah had a hand in. She couldn't resist glancing around, hoping to catch a glimpse of a familiar face amidst the sea of strangers. ❝ Do you think we'd see anyone we know? ❞ she half-shouted over the music, as they navigated through the crowded area. Aivryn's mind raced with excitement as she clung onto Astrid's arm. She tried to sound casual but Aivryn couldn't help but wonder if they might bump into a certain someone whom she had a crush on.

                  ⋆.˚  there’s  a  soft  hmm,  it’s  clearly  dramatized  demonstrating  astrid’s  faux  state  of  reflection  at  the  sound  of  aiv’s  question.  ❝  i  actually  don’t  really  know.  if  they  do  ask  for  a  password  what  do  you  think  it’d  be  ?  something  like  the  dj’s  favorite  fruit  ?  or  like..  how  many  rivers  are  in  chile  ?  perhaps  even  your  mother’s  maiden  name  ?  ❞  her  response  is  posed  as  a  joke  but  it  causes  some  actual  doubts  to  flourish,  what  if  after  all  this  work  to  find  the  club,  they  weren’t  even  allowed  in?  the  thought  leaves  as  soon  as  it  comes,  her  steps  halted  by  the  feeling  of  aivryn  hitting  the  metaphorical  brakes.  astrid  was  no  good  when  it  came  to  directions  but  she  tried  her  best  to  place  the  pieces  of  the  image  she’d  seen  on  instagram  to  any  churches  that  may  have  been  nearby  (  courtesy  of  google  maps  )  it’s  fruitless  with  most  of  them  blending  in  her  mind  all  too  similar  to  the  last.  but  victory  is  found  in  the  overarching  location  of  them  all;  lined  up  a  matter  of  blocks  apart.  they’d  have  to  run  into  it  eventually.  it  was  enough  to  fuel  astrid.  she  grins,  bumping  her  hip  into  aivryn’s,  ❝  i  think  i  know  where  it  should  be  !  if  it’s  not  the  first  church  we  come  across,  then  it’s  the  one  on  the  next  block..  or  the  one  after  that.  but  we’ll  find  it  !  ❞  she  chirps,  arms  still  linked  with  aivryn  as  she  led  them  onwards.    ─  ✶⋆.˚

˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡. WITH THE AMOUNT OF ALCOHOL THEY CONSUMED, MAL WAS SURPRISED THEY HAVEN'T MADE OUT YET. Typically, they'd be all over each other the moment they were alone, but tonight seemed different. Esme's behavior was strange and didn't go unnoticed by the blonde. The late night 'hangouts' became less frequent. She wasn't jealous of course. More like curious about Esme's whereabouts. ❝ Oh, did I? Funny, because I thought that was a code word for a hookup, but okay. ❞ Mallory raised a brow as she observed her. There was something different about Esme she couldn't quite place. ❝ Mhm, I was ready to seduce the answer out of you but you made it easier I guess, ❞ Mal smirked at Esme before continuing. ❝ So, tell me what's going on with you? I haven't heard from you in like...days. Had the rooftop to myself for a few nights now, I was beginning to feel lonely...You found someone better in bed than I am? ❞

                ꒰ა   ♡  ໒꒱  --—  it's  rare  that  esme  divulges  her  feelings  so  early  in  the  night.  usually  that's  reserved  to  happen  after  her  and  mallory's  ...  trysts,  though  for  once  she's  not  feeling  that.  she  raises  an  eyebrow  as  she  pops  a  mini  peanut  butter  cup  in  her  mouth  (  the  superior  type  of  candy,  if  you  asked  her  ),  shrugging,  "  didn't  you  say  you  had  stuff  to  tell  ?  think  i'd  rather  hear  that  first.  " she's  happier  right  now,  more  open  from  the  alcohol  —  it  shows  in  the  dopey  smile  she  sends  mal's  way,  grabbing  the  bottle  of  rum  between  them  to  take  another  swig.  she  lays  back  against  the  blanket  they'd  brought,  then,  eyes  meeting  the  stars.  immediately  she  turns  her  eyes  back  to  mal,  because  the  stars  remind  her  of  other  things,  now,  annoyingly,  "  ask  away.  i'm  an  open  book.  "  punctuated  by  another  giggle.  really,  who  does  she  think  she's  fooling  ?

˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡. ❝ AN INSTANT HEADLINER. You'd be forever known as the only woman who got the great Mallory Jade down on her knees. You'd wear that like a badge of honor wouldn't you. ❞ She mused, a teasing smile appearing on her lips. ❝ Yeah well…there's this bowling thing Drew set up. It was a double date thing and since I don't have a partner I invited a friend. A male one. Could you believe it? He then turns out to be Luna's ex-something. Had to pry that information out from him. But God, I cannot wait for mess. Oh and someone kissed me at the festival. ❞ Mal said it all so casually as she waved a dismissive hand. ❝ Honey? ❞ Her brow quirked upon hearing the title. ❝ Interesting title. 'Taste sweet like honey', is that it? ❞ She smirked, the innuendo not lost in her words. ❝ And writing a song about this girl right away? Baby, you are down bad. ❞ Mallory felt genuinely happy for Salem, noticing a glow about her and something different in her smile. If anyone deserved happiness, it was Salem. ❝ Ooohhh, say less babe! We could totally work something out and you know it's been a while since we sang together. ❞

"the mallory jade getting on her knees and begging for forgiveness would be a wild sight. imagine the commotion it would cause online." salem teased before taking a sip of her coffee. "staying out of trouble? for some reason i don't believe you. there's got to be more." she found it hard to believe mallory hadn't been up to anything interesting since they last saw one another. the pair was wild but the other was typically always up to something. "the song?" salem said enthusiastically. "it's called honey and it's pretty much done. i think i'm gonna leave it real stripped down and acoustic and release it like that. i wrote it about that girl i was telling you about." it was refreshing for salem to talk about working on new music again without any pressure surrounding it. "i was struggling for the longest time but now i have all these feelings i need to work through you know? i'm just trying to sort through everything i'm feeling in a healthy way. speaking of which we need a collab."

˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡. SEEING LUNA CRY WASN'T SOMETHING ENZO ENJOYED WITNESSING...okay, maybe he enjoyed it just a little. It wasn't that he took pleasure in her pain; he wasn't that cruel. But there was a part of him that felt vindicated seeing the tear escape her eye. It wasn't that he wanted them back, but seeing Luna happy with someone else stirred something in him, something he couldn't quite define. It was a mix of jealousy, regret, and a desire for revenge. If he couldn't be happy, then why should she? Manipulating Luna wasn't something Enzo took lightly, but in moments of insecurity, she was most vulnerable to his influence. He recognized the signs—the probing questions, the glistening eyes, the tremble in her voice—and he exploited them shamelessly. It wasn't right, but in the heat of the moment, morality took a backseat to his desire for vindication. ❝ Would it have been different if we were in a relationship? ❞ His voice was quiet. Before he could stop himself, his hand reached out to brush the stray tear that had made its way down her face. But he didn't linger long enough as he knew they wouldn't like it if he touched her. Enzo knew it was a risk touching Luna but he couldn't help it. ❝ Is your relationship with Drew as perfect as you dreamed ours should've been? ❞ Then it dawned on him, something he should've noticed the first time. ❝ He doesn't know about us, does he? You're afraid if he did then this 'perfect relationship' would go up in flames. Is that it? ❞

               his   voice   grated   against   their   skin   like   nails   clinging   for   dear   life   onto   something   slipping   away.   the   belief   that   they'd   been   right   about   themselves   the   entire   time,   the   fact   that   it   was   enzo   who   made   her   realize   it,   the   knowing   they   had   no   idea   how   to   be   anything   different;   it   only   made   them   feel   worse.   there   was   a   gnawing   within   her   to   text   her   siblings,   to   text   drew;   to   get   immediate   reassurance   that   something   they   believed   to   be   an   issue   actually   wasn't.   but   that's   where   the   problems   had   started,   no   ?   her   constant   need   to   be   reminded   that   she   hadn't   been   doing   anything   wrong.   or   maybe,   she'd   just   been   looking   for   someone   to   tell   them   that   they   had   been   doing   everything   wrong. enzo was just the first to be honest.                closure   ?   luna   wouldn't   exactly   call   it   that.   they   still   felt   slighted   by   the   way   enzo   had   treated   them;   humiliated   them.   he   took   something   away   from   her   she   wouldn't   be   getting   back,   made   her   question   herself.   the   damage   of   their   time   with   him   still   lingered   and   found   itself   in   her   relationship   today,   but   at   least   they   could   acknowledge   their   part   in   it   now   too.   at   least   enzo   had   been   honest   with   them   about   something.   "   no,   they   wouldn't   have.   and   you're   not   sorry   for   it.   "   luna   knew   she   was   a   cry   baby.   it   didn't   take   much   to   solicit   the   reaction   out   of   them,   and   despite   years   of   trying   to   keep   it   hidden   they   never   could   master   the   art   of   bottling   it   up.   but   they   didn't   want   his   sorry   or   sympathies   just   because   they   were   crying.                "   we're   not   going   to   sit   here   and   pretend   like   this   is   some   big   '   in   another   life   '   scenario   because   it   isn't.   we   were   never   in   a   relationship   anyway,   right   ?   "   they   threw   his   own   version   of   things   back   at   him   as   she   raised   their   shoulders   into   a   shrug   and   ignored   the   stray   tear   that   ignored   her   request   to   stay   in   place.   "   i   had   to   learn   what   i   was   doing   wrong   with   you   so   that   i   wouldn't   make   mistakes   with   drew,   that's   all   it   was.   "   luna   needed   to   believe   that   everything   happened   for   a   reason.   that   there   were   answers   to   everything   situation   they   found   themselves   in   because   they   couldn't   handle   the   senselessness   of   the   hurt.   it   had   to   be   for   something.   "   the   kind   of   man   he   is   isn't   any   concern   of   yours.   he's   nothing   like   you   and   that's   already   a   fantastic   start.   "

˚₊·—̳͟��͞♡. ❝ LET'S GET YOU BOTH THEN. One to eat on the drive and the other for you to take home. Sound good? ❞ Enzo glanced over at her with a smile before returning his focus to the road. There was something about Ximena that made him want to give her everything she asked for, though he couldn't quite pinpoint what it was. Maybe it was that damn smile or her big brown eyes. He found himself bobbing his head along to the beat as the song filled the car, mouthing along to the lyrics without a second thought. Ximena's comment about his friends being mean made him laugh. Vic not being mean? It was like taking the very thing that made the villain a villain. He'd give an arm and a leg for that to happen. And Kai, well, he wasn't mean, but he could be pretty stupid sometimes. Emphasis on the pretty, damn him and his 10-step skin care routine. ❝ Actually, I think it's your friends that are gonna yell at me, ❞ he quipped, a playful glint in his eyes. A small part of him looked forward to another text from Luna, curious about how she would react. He didn't expect her to text him the first time but it had to mean something...right? ❝ But we're adults, we can do whatever we want. Besides, we aren't doing anything wrong anyway. Just two friends driving around and having a good time. ❞

                ꒰ა   ♡  ໒꒱--—  "  well  if  i  have  the  option,  then  a  pint.  clearly.  and  i  can  just  take  home  whatever  i  don't  eat  !  "  ximena  pauses  to  think  after  she  says  it,  though,  a  little  frown  pulling  at  her  lips,  "  i  want  a  cone  too,  though  ...  i  don't  like  making  decisions.  "  oh,  right  !  seatbelt.  she  goes  to  secure  it  on  her  own  but  he  beats  her  to  it,  and  the  realization  that  he's  so  close  makes  her  breath  hitch.  it  takes  her  a  second  to  come  back  down  to  earth,  and  the  smile  she  gives  him  is  one  of  pure  nerves.  was  she  in  over  her  head  ?  maybe.  "  thank  you.  "  she  says  it  playfully  while  she  leans  over  to  grab  his  phone,  quickly  holding  it  up  to  his  face  to  unlock  it.  ximena  immediately  scrolls  to  spotify  to  put  on  a  one  direction  song,  not  even  thinking  of  looking  through  the  phone  (  dumbass  ),  "  so  are  your  friends  going  to  yell  at  you  again  for  hanging  out  with  me  ?  you  should  tell  them  to  stop  being  so  mean.  "  boo,  vic.  die,  kaito.
