“ never doubt my love for you, you always saw the best in me because you were the best of me.  ”

“ i still need you in my life. ”

“ you chose them, you always choose them. ”

“  passion wasn’t our problem.  we were always good at that part.  but passion can be anger and hate,  just as easily as joy and love.  somewhere along the way,  we forgot which was which. ”

“  you can’t keep doing this.  you can’t just keep coming here and expecting me to drop everything for you.  ”  

 “  you can’t keep doing this to me.  either you want this,  or you don’t.  but you keep tugging me back and forth.  ”

“  i can’t keep doing this.  i want to pretend to be happy for you but it’s killing me inside.  ”  

“  stop.  you have to stop.  because i don’t have the strength to look you in the eyes and make you leave.  i need you to be strong for me.  one last time.  ”

“  look at me and tell me you don’t feel anything.  make me believe it,  and i’ll go.  ”  

“  every time i’m around you it’s…it’s like a poison.  you’re in me.  and i can’t get you out.  ”

“  i know i didn’t call— i just.  i couldn’t stop thinking about you.  i had to see you. ”

“  i can’t keep being in love with someone who hates themself more than they love me.  ”

“  i was ready.  i was there.  but you were too scared of something real.  ”

“  i used to think you were the only person who could love me.  i’m not that person anymore.  if you want me back you have to give me a goddamn good reason more than ‘we belong together.’  ”  

“  you better fucking mean it because i want you too.  ” 

“  don’t look at me like that.  ”

“  just one more time.  ”

“  love isn’t just missing me.  you don’t love me if you aren’t willing to put in the work.  ”

"Absolutely." And if that 'getting lost for a bit' led to a secluded corner and some kissage, all the better, right? They were alone. It was quiet. And the town was, for once, mystery-less. No way was she letting this evening go to waste.

"I was thinking...Halloween...why don't you come over and help me hand out candy? My parents are going to the thing at townhall, so we'll have the house to ourselves."

As much as he loved his sister and his friends, it was nice to be separated from them for a little while and a little further out from the festival. Even though it had also meant giving Cyrus his best big brother glare when he and Lydia took off for the haunted house.

But having Brooke's hand in his made it worth it. "Half the fun of these things is getting lost for a bit, right?"

[cheerfulsleuth]

@ghxstwrxter sent: Send 🌽 for our muses to walk through a corn maze together.

They had long since lost the others -- Lydia and Cyrus deciding to check out the festival's "haunted house" while Jay joined some of the other football players in scarfing down various deep fried foods. But it was fine. As much as she loved being around the others, she and Ben were overdue for a little...alone time.

Slipping her hand into his, she smiled. "Shall we consult the map or do you just want to wander and see where it takes us?"

Open Starter || Open to Anyone (Present Day)

It felt weird to be back in town. Not bad, per se, but weird. And just a little like she never left.

Maybe even more than a little. For as she pulled open the doors to Deja Brew, she half expected to see the gang sitting there. Waiting. Should she have called them? Damn, she probably should have called them... You know, provided they were even in town.

Oh well. She'd see at the reunion and then, maybe, they could go out afterwards. Grab Lydia and Cyrus and have a proper reunion. Much more meaningful than the school one.

Approaching the counter, she ordered herself a large pumpkin spice latte (her usual order between September and November) before stepping off to the side and waiting.

Open Starter || Open to Anyone (HS Years)

"Did you hear the news? They're thinking of closing the old movie theater in town..." Odd since it wasn't exactly hurting for business. Their Saturday night monster movie marathons were not both legendary and kind of the place to be.

But at the same time, some of the workers there had reported some 'spooky' happenings as of late. Things that couldn't be explained...

[cheerfulsleuth]

"CAN WE TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED?" PROMPTS *  assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary

so how long are you going to avoid me?

we should really talk about it.

can we just clear the air?

sit down for a second and talk to me.

i wish you would just look at me for two seconds.

explain to me how that happened.

you handled that a lot better than i expected.

when were you going to tell me the truth about that?

i think it's time we started being honest with one another.

it doesn't do us any good to stay quiet.

you told me you'd tell me the truth. i'm still waiting.

i was hoping for some answers.

what more do you need to hear?

i saw what you did.

when did this start happening?

start from the beginning.

that was a little abrupt.

when did you learn how to do that?

so... that's new.

they called you [title]. why did they call you that?

is there something you're not telling me?

i'd like to discuss what happened between us.

this is going to be really awkward, i'm sure.

when did they start taking orders from you?

who died and made you king?

i missed the part where that was my problem.

you could have given me a heads up.

so... we're just not going to address that?

i saw what happened.

that could have been worse.

you made a mockery of them.

i appreciate what you did for me back there.

you didn't have to stand up for me, and yet you did.

how long have you been planning that?

i think it's about time i was included in these discussions.

you know i could have helped with that.

you got a little scary back there.

i was so certain they were going to kill us.

where'd you learn to pull a stunt like that?

did that really just happen?

i owe you my life.

give me a heads up next time.

you have more power than i thought.

so... is someone going to fill me in?

Wanted Opposite: Jayden Walker

Close with Brooke and Lydia's older brother, Jayden was a member of the Summerville High Football Team. A skeptic at first, it took him a while to accept that creepy things were real and not every mystery ended with someone in a mask (some did...but not all).

What happened to him post high school is wide open. But he's most definitely headed back to Summerville (provided he left) as he can't wait to be reunited with the gang. And the rest of his class, he supposes.

[cheerfulsleuth]

Headcanon: Natalie and Macy

Brooke's squad mates and the two people, outside the "society" that she can most often be found with. Following High School, Natalie moved to California while Macy stayed in town. She is now the VERY bored house wife of the owner of most of Summerville's car dealerships. She is also currently expecting child #1.

Headcanon: Summerville

A small, coastal town in Washington State, Summerville is both home to "The Sleuth Society" -- a team of (former) teenage detectives -- and many strange and unsettling occurrences.

Places to note include...

Summerville High

Bell, Book, & Candle (the town's "witch shop")

Brooke aka "The Snoop"

Full Name: Brooke Mullins

Name Meaning(s): "water or small stream" (Brooke),

Alias(es):

Pronouns: She/Her

Birthday: April 15

Zodiac Sign: Aries

Abilities: Minor Celebrity (both past and present), Press Accreditation (present), and Truthiness (both past and present)

Bio:

An only child, Brooke's bond with her friends (aka The Sleuth Society) meant everything to her. And still does.

Was around 14 when the "Sleuth Society" solved their first mystery. By the time she was 17, she and the others were what one would call local celebrities.

Being pretty and popular, Brooke has always had an easy time getting people to talk to her. Now this comes with the added bonus of a press pass.

In High School, Brooke very clearly fell into the "cheerleader / popular girl" stereotype. Nowadays she works as a broadcast journalist. She tried doing it in "the big city" but as that didn't work out, she's back and working for a local station.

Is bi-sexual.

Her age will vary based on thread / verse. Default for any threads taking place during her teenage years is 17/18. Default for present day threads is 27/28.

More to come as I discover her; in the meantime, random tidbits can be found in her headcanon tag.

The Rules

THE BASICS

An original character based on the "Snoop" archetype from Evil Hat's Monster of the Week with influences from such things as Buffy and Scooby Doo.

My hope is that this will turn into an exploration of the teen detective / ghost hunting genre. As well as the themes of friendship, family (both blood and found), nostalgia, coming home, and what happens when one's past doesn't stay in the past.

Mostly I am going to be making all this up as I go along. As one does.

I am waaaaaay too old for the drama. Please remember that IC and OOC are not the same thing and that nothing Brooke says IC should be taken personally.

Same goes for anon hate. Too old for it. Either sign your name to it or shut the fuck up.

SELECTIVE-NESS

While the main description lists this blog as highly selective, I would say semi-selective will most likely end up being more accurate. Mostly I like to keep my dash clean and am terrified of people. But chances are, if you follow me, I’ll follow you back. Provided, of course, I have some understanding of your muse.

Occasionally, I may not follow someone back. And usually there is a reason. Not like a bitchy reason; more a practical one. Like posting an excessive amount of NSFW photos/artwork. I tend to pop in and out of tumblr while at work and well…I just can’t risk having dicks all over my dash.

SHIPPING

Brooke here is bisexual, which means her ships will be a mix of f/m and f/f. Really, I will ship almost anything provided there is chemistry.

That being said, this blog will be multi-verse and multi-ship. Unless discussed as a plot point beforehand, Brooke is not cheating on anyone.

While I am open to exploring anything and everything, I do have a preferred ship / endgame for Brooke. That ship will always take precedence and will act as my default.

THEMES & TRIGGERS

While I am more than old enough to write smut, I am actually not that good at it. Or at least I don’t seem to think so. I mostly prefer the ‘fade to black’ approach. Of course, this is subject to change depending on the scene. And the partner.

Anything that does get overly explicit will be placed behind a read more and tagged appropriately.

Same with triggering content. While I, myself, do not have any triggers, I am more than willing to tag whatever people need me to tag. All triggering material will be tagged ‘topic tw’
