“ GROOVY, huh? ” despite the stress on her mind ( on both their minds, no doubt ), a smile formed. one thing at a time – first, the apartment, then finding lydia. and she didn’t MIND amanda’s company, to be honest – it was nice, actually, to have what might be a friend around. it was even nicer to have a DISTRACTION in front of her, as much she’d like to have been out there helping, it would do–for now. huff of laughter followed the words, before full attention turned to amanda. “ never heard that one before. ”
❝ there's been groovy . gnarly . off the heezy . bitchin ' . ❞ 80S SLANG was somewhat an inside joke of theirs - or at least much of one that it'd sometimes slip into casual conversation , and thus sound out of the ordinary to anybody who wasn't used to hearing it . but on the subjects of farah , amanda couldn't disagree with how todd spoke of her - or at least not from what she'd seen so far . GRANTED the first time she was willing to dip from her comfort zone was when everybody's lives were flipping TOPSY TURVY , things could be going worse for the brotzman girl . ❝ the list goes on . ❞

She nods, the disbelief in Amanda’s voice prompting one corner of her mouth to raise in a smug half - grin ( if she had a dollar for every time she heard something like that, pizza money would be a much smaller concern ), and April enters the house with her head tucked and fingers curled around the strap of her messenger bag. There’s not much that decorates the interior, implying the residence has no second occupant, and what few belongings are present are either aged, in a state of clutter, or both. Lot of space for just one person. “April,” she replies, noticing the way Amanda’s hands bury themselves within her jean pockets, and immediately deciding against the standard handshake. “Over the website, you said something about … ‘emotion vampires’? … Are they still here?”
❝ THEY TOOK OFF , ACTUALLY ❞ about five minutes before the redhead made a show - a move she could only figure was by design rather than by coincidence . COULD THEY HAVE KNOWN ? the questions followed with a physical shake of amanda's head , as if she were holding a verbal conversation with no other than her own , and a short lived smile to comfort & cake the possibility of supernatural happening . ( * CHILDRENS’ TALES ! ) this is real life , amanda . ❝ not too long before you arrived - they scope the place a lot . sometimes sit outside in their van . but listen - i don't know WHAT IS UP with them , dude , but they are freaky . ❞

“well there goes my plan for the next three years.” or the rest of the semester at the very least. he could just see it now, the vision of him climbing out of his uber-fancy hibernation pod only to be met with riotous applause upon his awakening. perhaps he’d have to invent that himself. “because you’re-” a hand gestures in her direction, “cool. and don’t get me wrong, i will be too, but in the future. right now is — not my time. i’m not surrounded by the right people just yet.” he pauses. quietly adding. “yes please.”
❝ dude , I AM NOT COOL . as soon as i drop you home , i'm getting back into my jammies & laughing at people on jeopardy . ❞ it's an unhandy stumble of words , but none of it were untrue . as a matter of fact , she almost sounded as if she insisted that was the case : a jab at verity , and not just to lighten the mood .
LUMBERSOME SMILE FADES . amanda leans over in her seat only to start at peeling sanitary pad from fabric . kids are cruel , she can't help but think to herself . cruel in the way they don't understand / cruel in the way it almost makes you feel sorry for the tormentor for not knowing their impact . ❝ i'm sorry , kid . ❞

THE VOICE IS UNEXPECTED ! he is sat silent on the drive when it finds his ears ; not unpleasant, though he jumps at the sound. the boy is pleased at the sudden protection from the rain, though, and offers a small smile of gratitude. ‘ i uh - uh … ‘ a bone deep chill chatters his teeth. ‘ did - didn’t know you lived huh - ere. sss - sorry … i got tuh - tired of wal - alking. ‘
❝ UH , HYEAH . moved in last week . ❞ doctors suggestion / * ( PERHAPS A MOVE IS IN ORDER . ) perhaps a slower speed would reduce stress & odds of an episode . but alas , no amend . she remains isolated in the few squared metres and carries with her , on her back , the anxiety of an attack that accompany it . INEXORABLE . ❝ you wanna drink or somethin ' ? you don't have to . . . come into my house , ❞ an awkward exhale / hum like laughter , ❝ i'm not a creep . you can sit on the porch - then you’re outta the rain . ❞

“ You smell… nice. ” And by nice, she means the scent of weed emanating from the girl. “ Are you holding? ”
❝ oh yeah , not much though . ❞ medicated & prescribed : nothing she's much thought about usually socially since her attacks had gotten worse , ❝ s'it smell that strong ? ❞

❝ you know , todd really likes you , ❞ state the obvious / you've never been great at sparking conversation : and what more was a sister for but to embarrass their sibling ? SHE'S SO PRETTY ! smart , clever , charming and her attitude and determination was something amanda could definitely get behind . so effing cool . with a smile , her legs are brought to the counter she sat upon , hugging her knees to her chest as she watched farah begin working on putting the appartment back together . ( or at least the best she could ) ❝ he thinks you're real groovy . ❞ / * @moonscribed

MUTT .
he is strangely calm, almost unnervingly so. “ amanda. “ he has never had someone calm him down, bring him back to the here and now, reassure him that there was nothing there, but himself. he would not let another person be wracked with pain. she had talked about this. with him. with the others. sadly, he can’t do what they can. “ — you have medicine for this, right? “ a punishing pause, too long in its duration. “ or you did? “ fuck.
❝ MY BAG MUTT , MY BAG ! ❞ frantic as ever / fingernails turning blue as the glacial burns only sunk teeth deeper . jaw trembling and ducts begin to leak what feels like scorching water in comparison to the rest of her , and it only makes the fearful palpitations & fluttering in her chest harder to bear . everything so , so loud and painful , and her yells weren't helping .

BILLY .
“well my outfit went down a STORM, let me tell you!” in reality, billy should perhaps be telling it to the spit wads down his back and the maxi-pad stuck to his hat. “on a completely unrelated note - is HUMAN HIBERNATION a thing and where can i sign up for that? —– i envy people like you, you know.” @brotzmn ♥’d
❝ i hate to tell you , but human hibernation is NOT a thing - but if it were , i'd be deep , deep into that freakin’ sleep right now . ❞ perhaps even for the rest of her life , she thought . but whatever selfish self doubt she had , more important subjects faced her currently , ❝ you . . . envy me ? why ? also do you want a little help with . . . that before i drop you home ? ❞

DIRK .
❝ EH, IT’S OKAY. YOU’LL GET USED TO IT. MAYBE. ❞ eventually —— he almost adds but that would be false hope in the mouth of a pariah. dirk wasn’t used to all of this, whatever this is, himself. he never really knew anything, he never really understood the strange happenings in his life or why he’d feel a sudden urge to go left instead of right. it was extraordinarily different from a gut feeling, but somewhat exhilarating all the same —— providing that it wasn’t a matter of life or death. he smiles at the other, an offering of reassurance. ❝ think of it as walking ; your first step was always the hardest and then it gradually got easier. this works in the same way —- except, not really but you have to admit, the analogy was a good one ! now, close your eyes and let the universe … tell you what it wants. simple. bada - bing, bada - boom. ❞
❝ quit saying american phrases in your british accent - it's so weird . ❞ laughter presses . but MAYBE . that didn't set too well with her - just the concept of amanda being out of her comfort zone and never getting a real grip around the strange happenings that occur around her wasn't something that her mind took an instant liking to . being cooped up in your home and suffering attacks ( alongside the illnesses that accompanied that ) undoublty kept her on her toes whilst doing anything but . it wasn't going to be easy to get herself out of that mindset . but deep down there was a true feeling of self - worth and well - being that presented itself 'pon the idea of her growing from it .
a sigh presses from her nostils and smile remains . spine straightening , hands flailingv all the while liner - smudged eyelids come to a gentle close . as her features pinch into that of amused assurance , ❝ right . . . then ? ❞

[continued]
Vogel is a blur of black leather, polka dots and screaming, heart racing faster than he thought possible for a moment. Until Drummer touches him, and he settles some, still bouncing back and forth between each foot anxiously. But when Drummer tells him to stay close, starts to loosen her grip, Vogel’s eyes go wide on her. “Wait– you wanna go toward the scary sparkle cloud, boss?!” And it’s his turn to grasp her arm. Because he’ll go. And he’ll stomp anyone’s ass that tries to hurt Drummer. But it seems like a batshit idea, and maybe he should pull her away.

amanda swallows back any lingering taste of unease , feeling that bloodpump caged in that heaving chest of hers slowly but surely remit itself from a state of overwhelming hyperactivity . ❝ only if you want to . ❞ it was her instinct to avoid any sort of inconvenience / to run & hide in hopes it'd all just leave her be . but the situation presented was far from ordinary . if dirk gently and those connected had taught her anything - there was a reason the pair were witnessing the oddity before them . ❝ but you're telling me you're not the least bit curious as to what it is ? ❞
