“Yeah, that sounds about right,” Geni laughed, grinning a little at his words. She nodded as he spoke; she’d never been that into books either. She was much more of a tactile person. “I’m not much for poetry either. So, you’re not alone in that respect at least,” she continued, running a hand through her hair. An eyebrow rose at his words and she chuckled a little more as she extended her hand to shake his. “No, I don’t think we have. And I’ll choose to take that as a compliment,” she teased. “It’s a pleasure to meet you Javier. I’m Genevieve, but most people call me Geni,” she told him with a smile.

“A lot of time and effort probably,” Geni replied with a bit of a laugh. She wasn’t drinking tonight, she was working the next day. But it was her first Valentine’s Day in 5 years that she was single and she needed to get out of the house and be amongst the people. It hadn’t helped that she’d seen her ex had a new girlfriend that he was spending the day with. She turned to look at the man next to her a little more. “At least you got the reference though. I think the only Edgar Allen Poe poem I know is that one about the raven?” she sighed, shaking her head a little. Literature was not her thing. 

“Oh, the evermore? Nevermore? Something like that. Trust me, I’m not really into poetry myself. I liked school, but not enough to want to actually read the books.” At least he wasn’t alone in that. Half of the time it felt like the people he knew here were literary geniuses – or he was simply an idiot. The latter sounded more factual. “I don’t think we’ve met yet. Think I would’ve remembered you,” he adds, holding out a hand. “Javier.”

At least he remembered his tie, though it’s incredible he’s found a suit for the occasion. It’s an all-purpose night: a successful gig? Check. Have a few drinks and be among other people for once? Double-triple check. “How do they even come up with these names?” he asks the person beside him at the main bar, pointing to The Annabel Lee in front of him. “I’m lucky if I remember half of these Edgar Allen poems.”

“Mariah is Mariah! But still, people are just having fun. Isn’t that what the singalongs are about?” she asked amused. She chuckled then. “I mean, I suppose that makes it a little more fun. Especially if the costumes are good. I bet you’ve dressed up as Dr. Frank’n’Furter before, haven’t you?”

GENI SUTTON

“What? Not a fan of musicals? I bet you hate Rocky Horror Picture Show when they do the callbacks and singalongs.”

“not a fan of people thinking they are the next mariah” jax answers dryly. “actually dont mind that one. halloween is banging when people come in costume.”

[genitoperfection]

Geni laughed, absolutely amused by the confidence and self-assuredness. “Well, in that case,” she teased, pretending to flip through the calendar to the 8th month. She pulled out three $5 bills, handing them over to the other woman with ease. “I’m always happy to support our firefighters,” Geni mused, still grinning at the other woman. “Have you been a firefighter long?” she asked curiously.

genitoperfection​:

Geni was taking a much needed break, she needed fresh air, she’d never much liked being cooped up inside. Walking past the firestation, she looked curiously at the table and woman set up outside and then grinned a little when she saw the calendars. She wasn’t a perve but who didn’t love a good firefighter calendar and it was always for a good cause. 

She laughed a little at the woman’s words and stopped, glancing down at the calendars for a moment. “Are you in this too?” she asked curiously, a smirk on her lips and an eyebrow raised. “How much? It’s for a good cause, right?” she chuckled in amusement, already reaching into her pocket for some cash. 

a look of absolute disbelief at the question, almost horrified that the other brunette would even ask that. “do you see this beautiful specimen of fire-fighting gorgeousness?” she asked, a hand gesturing to herself. “that’d be insane not to have included me.” did that answer that question? a calendar was pushed across the table. “august, if you want to have a sneak peak.” elliot chuckled, a cheeky grin spreading in her lips. “they’re fifteen bucks, all goes to support the fire house.” everything that had gone into the making of the calendar had been done for free, the photographer donating their time, a local printing house putting them together free of charge.

“Well, tequila shots are a classic,” Geni told her with a grin, laughing lightly. She lifts her own glass up a little before taking a sip. “This is a mojito,” she replied easily. She couldn’t help but laugh a little at the other woman’s words. “Oh I understand that,” Geni told her, before shaking her head. “But I live here in Silver Lake. I just...work a lot and usually at night. And if I’m not working, I’m usually with my kid. I don’t socialise as much as I like to,” Geni laughed, shaking her head a little. Her social life really had dipped since she’d moved here. She let her hand meet the other’s in a handshake. “Geni,” she said. “Interesting name though.”

An eyebrow rose in amusement at the brunette’s words from beside her, letting out a chuckle. She didn’t have Ari for the weekend and knew she could cut a little loose. She turned to smirk at the brunette. “Well, what are you drinking then?” Geni asked with a laugh and a grin, sipping her own drink to finish it. She leant a little closer, curious about the other woman. “So, why a one time only night off?” she asked, turning to look at the other woman properly. 

“Me? I’ve got…” Trailing off, she observes her half-emptied glass with a hum of interest. “…whiskey, but I’m not opposed to switching it up for shots. What about you, what’s in that?” Echo mirrors the other woman’s movements, turning the bar stool to face her moreso than the counter top as she mulls over her question. “Workaholic, mostly. I don’t get out much, if that ain’t clear. Don’t think I’ve ever seen you around Silver Lake before — are you from around here or are you passing through?” As an afterthought, she extends a hand. “Echo.”

Where: outside the firehouse When: mid afternoon Who: open to anyone @slchat​

had elliot volunteered to man the little table they’d set up outside the firestation? you bet. while she wasn’t exactly a fan of the girl-scout vibes, she was more than ready to throw herself into selling the calendars —- mostly because she starred in it. sure, she was only a trainee, but their division was apparently lacking in women enough to include her, which elliot was positive would only help their cause. “come get your calendars - the sexiest calendar you’ll find this year.” the brunette grinned, leaning on the table. “and if you want it signed, you only gotta ask.”

Geni couldn’t help but laugh at Mila’s question, shaking her head. “No. Two coffees before ten is not a bad thing. Go for it,” Geni told her with a grin. The Saturday farmer’s market was one of Geni’s favorite places and she was glad her friend was with her. “What’s got you out here though? I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve seen you out,” Geni asked curiously, keeping a firm hand on Ariana by her side as they walked. The toddler was occupied with the small carton of fresh berries in her little basket though. 

farmer’s market, Saturday morning. open to anyone

      “ I’ve already had one… is two coffees before 10 am a bad thing?” she’d been up since fucking five thirty in the morning thanks to her daughter’s pony club event. she had planned to stay and watch her daughter all morning, however, she’d been shooed away after the first event. Great. she was already too lame for her eight year old. “fuck it. two coffee’s it is.”

[genitoperfection]

“I mean...not really? I am bleeding,” Geni said a little sarcastically. Finally she found the baby wipes, pulling one out with ease and bringing it up to her nose tentatively. She let the other woman help her to the side, too focused on cleaning off the little speckles of blood. It wasn’t a lot of blood at least, though she was curious if her nose was damaged in some way. At the other woman’s question, she pulled her hands from her nose, glancing up at her. “Does it look bad? I don’t think it’s broken,” Geni said, wincing a little when she grimaced. She really didn’t want her nose to be stuffed up. 

genitoperfection​:

“Fuck,” Geni gasped in surprise, a prickle of pain shooting through her nose. Immediately, a hand came up to press against her nose, it was tender but it didn’t feel broken. She shook her head as the woman that had accidentally socked her spoke, asking if anything was broken. Frowning, she pulled her hand away and cringed at the faintest speckle of blood on her fingers. Well, shit. “A little bit,” Geni said, glancing up at the other woman before reaching into her handbag for the packet of baby wipes she was sure she had in there. “Goddamn you’re strong.”

“I’m so sorry. Are you okay?” She bit her lip, “sorry that’s a dumb question –– can I do anything? I have some Tylenol…or I can grab you ice.” Sophie barely awaited her response, helping the other to the side and out of the way of the crowd swelling around them. “Can I see? I’m no doctor but I’d like to help.” Despite having caused the incident in the first place. 

[genitoperfection]

“Oh, that’s sweet. But I promise I’m very chill.”

smash or pass + geni

I believe I’ve seen her before!! She’s the type of woman that makes me tongue-tied trying to speak to...just the way she carries herself. I suppose pass just because we really haven’t spoken. It’s weird to say I’d ‘smash’ with someone I don’t know at all.

Geni laughed a little at the other woman’s words, grinning as she nodded. “Yeah, I can definitely see that,” Geni joked, taking a moment to glance around the party before her eyes settled on the dog. It was small and kind of ugly and looked a little out of place in the house and around all these people. She took the other woman’s hand giving a light shake. “Nice to meet you too. Cool name, if I can say that,” Geni told her, grinning at Sreva once again. 

Her smile widened and an eyebrow rose at Sreva’s next words. “Sure. Electronica has never really been my favorite,” Geni told her with a laugh and a shrug of her shoulders. “What’re you thinking?” she asked curiously. 

genitoperfection​:

It had been a long time since Geni had been to a house party like this and frankly she was starting to realise it wasn’t really her scene anymore. The music was good but she hardly knew anyone and though she could turn on the charm and friendliness, Geni didn’t feel like. Her inner social butterfly wasn’t in the mood for once. 

She was surprised from her thoughts when she heard a voice and realised that another woman was talking to her. “Oh. Not really deep thoughts,” Geni chuckled, flashing the other woman a warm, sweet smile. “Mostly just realising house party’s aren’t exactly my thing anymore,” she told her with a chuckle, shrugging a little. “I’m Geni! By the way. I don’t think we’ve met.”

Sreva scrunched her nose. “I feel that. Usually chill gatherings are a blast, but I get the vibe that this crowd never grew out of their college days. I’m mostly here for the dog.” She gestured to the chihuahua in question, a tiny awkward thing with a fuzzy sweater, who was trotting around people’s ankles and looking for scraps. She held out her hand to Geni. “Sreva! Nice to meet you.”

Her gaze flickered over to the speaker, hooked up to someone’s phone and playing some generic electronic beat, and glanced back at Geni with a sparkle in her eye. “How about we take over the playlist?”

[genitoperfection]

Geni grinned, nodding her head. “That’s good to know,” she teased lightly, eyes scanning the menu once again. She was listening to Clary and then frowned a little when she heard the name of the cocktail. “I...have never heard of that. Which is saying something,” Geni laughed, as she grinned at the blonde. “Yeah?” she asked, at the offered sip, intrigued by the drink. 

Clary began talking about her day then and Geni sighed sadly. She didn’t think she could do the kind of work Clary did. “It sounds like you definitely need that drink then. Is it...always so difficult?” she asked curiously. Being a chef was worlds away from being a social worker. 

genitoperfection​:

Geni was in a rush, she’d been at Sutton’s all day. But now she was meeting a friend for dinner and hopefully drinks. She felt like she needed them. As soon as she saw Clary she grinned, pulling the seat out eagerly to sit down. “Hi! I’m so sorry I’m late,” Geni apologised with a sweet smile, sitting down across from the blonde. “I got held up,” she said with a chuckle. She felt bad that she’d made the other woman wait. “I hear they make great cocktails here though,” she mentioned, as she settled in her seat and reached for a moment. She hadn’t been here before but she’d heard good things. “How are you? How was your day?” Geni asked curiously, smiling wide at the other woman. 

Grinning at her friend, Clary scooted closer to the table so they could speak. “Don’t worry about it! You know I’ll always wait for you!” Brushing the other woman’s worry away, she picked up a menu to look at the food options as well as her next drink. “I heard that too! I got this cocktail called Blood and Sand. The name leaves a lot to be desired but its really good! You can have a sip if you want.” At the question, Clary sighed and shrugged. “I had a lot of cases today. You know how busy we get but damn… It was a lot. And some of them were sad so it’s just bee difficult.”

“Hey, you doing alright there?” Sipping chamomile at a house party, Sreva glanced over at someone near the edge of the room, and spoke up before she stopped to consider whether it was her place to. “You look like you’re thinkin’ some deep thoughts, and this doesn’t seem like the occasion for, well, thinking in general. What’s up?” @slchat​
