“  not  gonna  lie,  that  kind  of  skews  my  own  perception  of  any  interaction  or  thing  i've  ever  had  happen  to  me.  i  might  be  up  thinking  about  this  later.  ”  sunny  admitted  teasingly,  but  on  a  realistic  note,  it  really  was  that  deep.  “  that's  what  you  think.  ”  she  said  before  tapping  her  index  finger  against  her  temple.  “  and  it's  frowned  upon  to  socialize  with  the  people  you  represent,  yeah?  i  mean,  it  get  it.  ”  it  seemed  like  a  common  thread  in  everyone's  lives  as  they  grew  older  that  they  drifted  from  socializing,  but  it  seemed  especially  prevalent  with  lennon,  which  made  sunny  feel  sad.  “  hmm,  i  don't  know.  maybe  both.  or  maybe  one  disguised  as  another.  ”  sunny  teased  with  a  small  smile.  “  whoa,  what  was  that  tone?  i  am  serious.  i  promise.  ”  in  all  honesty,  she  really  didn't  have  much  use  in  being  serious,  and  maybe  lennon  had  a  point.  “  damn.  it's  always  the  parents.  that  sucks,  though.  i'm  sure  you  wanna  assume  the  best  possible  outcome,  but  the  odds  are  against  us  all,  aren't  they?  ”  for  better  or  worse.  and  while  sunny  took  a  small  bite  out  of  her  pizza  and  chewed  as  she  mulled  over  whether  or  not  she  wanted  to  trauma  dump,  she  couldn't  help  but  wonder  if  maybe  her  keeping  things  to  herself  was  what  actually  was  preventing  her  from  sleep.  “  well…  okay,  do  you  ever  get  tired  of  yourself?  like  traits  you  know  you  have,  but  you  keep  doing  them  because  they're  beyond  your  actual  control?  like  you're  a  sim  being  played  by  some  sicko  person  who  chooses  the  worst  outcome?  and  its  like  guilt,  shame,  and  emotions,  and  feelings,  and  you  think  everything  is  gonna  be  fixed  just  by  chasing  this  high  about  something,  or  someone,  and  then  when  you  chase  it  you  start  to  realize,  if  you  catch  it,  maybe  it's  like  a  dog  chasing  a  car,  you  wouldn't  even  know  what  to  do  with  it  if  you  got  it.  does  that  make  sense?  ”  she  didn't  even  know  why  she  asked,  because  she  didn't  even  think  she  was  making  sense  at  this  point.  “  oh  my  god,  wait.  you  ghosted  them  because  you  didn't  wanna  relive  the  experience?  –  to  be  fair,  that  movie  gets  me  every  time.  i  watched  it  twice,  and  that  was  enough.  "

"well! maybe not in the court of public opinion, but in actual court it often is. everyone has their own version of the truth," she shrugged, before her face turned to a frown. "my — what? hey come on, if anything it's the other way around! but, no. i'm really not. my work schedule doesn't really allow for much socializing." and the small little hiccup of the judgment of other people and the fear holding her back that she'd never be able to outrun it. "...i. hmm." wow. had sunny really just called her out like that so easily? the audacity. and also... kind of impressive, if not annoyingly so. "i guess i never really give myself the seconds to be scared. it's always on to the next thing. now, does that make me controlling, or just expertly efficient?" lennon teased, before meeting sunny's quip with an amused eyeroll. "oh, right, i forgot, because you're so serious." hearing her work described as drama so casually gave her a bit of lightheartedness she didn't normally associate with it, or with, well, anything. it was honestly endearing. "well..." there was a moment of pause, as if she wasn't sure how much detail to go into. "i guess that's up to him? the odds in these cases are never really good, sometimes the statistics are downright depressing. but. i don't know. i guess i could tell there was a front he was putting on. and i mean, judging by the fact that i barely ever saw his parents in the whole time i've been handling this case i can't really blame him. parents suck." okay, maybe that last bit was a bit more projecting. her chin lowered with her eyes, watching sunny avoid her stare as best she could, but lennon wouldn't look away, either. "well, that depends. are you giving me your summary 'i don't want to talk about it' answer or is this the start of friendship trauma sharing hour? because. i guess i'll accept either but i didn't just invite you over to make you sleepy, you know. i am here to listen if you need it." why she was saying that so earnestly was a genuine mystery to her. not because she didn't care, often she did too much, but — more because she didn't usually find it very easy to show it with her words. "you know. i'll just have to take your word for it. i usually try not to cry if i can help it. when i saw marley and me and realized what was happening, i literally left the theater and ghosted the person i was watching it with."

“  of  course,  leave  it  to  a  lawyer  to  say  honesty  is  relative."  sunny  teased  with  a  slight  chuckle.  when  hearing  lennon,  her  eyebrows  raised  in  surprise.  “  does  that  make  me  your  metaphorical  handler?  but  no,  really,  you're  kidding.  ”  it  wasn't  that  sunny  couldn't  tell  that  lennon  was  somewhat  closed  off,  but  maybe  she  was  under  the  impression  that  she  was  so  much  put  together  that  she  had  a  lot  of  people  in  her  life  to  open  up  to.  “  wow.  that's  metal  as  hell,  and  that  doesn't  scare  you?  that  nobody  else  is  there  but  you  to  take  care  of  it?  or  are  you  one  of  those  people  who  prefer  it  because  you  like  having  control  over  things  like  that?  ”  sunny  asked  curiously.  “  me,  teasing?  i  never  met  her.  ”  she  said  while  in  fact  teasing.  “  but  yeah,  i'm  so  serious.  if  i  had  your  job  i'd  be  living  for  the  drama  of  all  of  this.  ”  maybe  that's  why  it  was  a  good  thing  she  didn't  have  her  job.  “  this  tea  won't  leave  this  safe  space,  don't  worry.  ”  jaw  dropping  when  she  listened  to  the  other  girl,  she  was  finding  that  lennon's  defendant  sounded  kind  of  relatable.  “that's  good  of  you  to  see  the  best  in  him.  do  you  really  think  it  was  a  hard  time  he  was  going  through  though?  like  first  offense?  or  do  you  think  he'll  probably  go  back  out  there  continuing  a  rampage  learning  from  the  mistakes  he  made  by  getting  caught  from  this  round?  ”  she  asked  nonchalantly.  “  well,  yeah,  that  and  sometimes  i  think  i  deserve  more  for  dealing  with  difficult  soccer  moms.  ”  sunny  admitted  with  a  shrug,  leaving  her  meaning  ambiguous.  it  took  her  a  moment  on  responding,  she  was  debating  if  she  actually  wanted  to  admit  to  having  sobbed  or  not.  “  i  mean.  ”  her  gaze  averted  as  she  shifted  her  weight  to  her  other  leg.  “  it's  possible  ”  she  said  quietly  before  clearing  her  throat.  more  than  glad  to  follow  lennon's  lead,  she  took  a  seat  on  a  bar  stool,  reaching  for  a  slice  of  pizza  to  put  on  it.  “  can't  it  be  all  of  the  above?  i  think  i  cycle!  if  that  makes  sense.”  she  admitted  a  little  too  openly.  “  and  besides,  what's  the  point  of  living  if  you  can't  violently  sob  over  things  that  may  or  may  not  be  happening  to  you,  and  feeling  the  music  deeply?  ”  sounded  like  a  boring  life  to  her. 

"maybe - i don't know. i guess honesty is relative," she reasoned, before continuing in her thoughts. "it feels alright with you, but not everyone is so good at handling my babbling." in fact, most of the time, lennon was the one being sequestered to the monologues of other people, given that she was a generally pretty quiet person. cool, collected, some might even say somber. but maybe that was just sunny living up to her namesake, and dragging the somber-ness right out of her. or maybe it was because sunny was the embodiment of all the chaos lennon was used to. something about being around her made her feel like a kid again. "yes, yes, and yes," she admitted bluntly, figuring it didn't really do her any good to be demure about it, since — as had already been demonstrated — sunny could usually tell. "but! no one else is going to, so. nothing else to do but keep it moving," lennon shrugged. but her brows furrowed as she turned to listen to sunny's response, finding herself smiling. "wait. you're serious. sorry, i thought you were teasing me for a second." little interactions like this with her neighbor often made her pause. sometimes, it was nice to have a friend in this town, even if it was an unlikely one. "technically i'm not, but i will, anyways. basically, it started out as minor vandalism that escalated beyond settliing for damages because the owner found out the whole reason for the damages was an attempted theft. no one got hurt or anything, and i'm of the opinion that the kid was just having a hard time and made a mistake, but. you know how people can be." her voice trailed off in tandem with her gaze, as if she'd wandered off in her head just for a second. "why, because people are awful?" it was said with a smile, and she was clearly joking, but they both also knew there was a ring of truth to it. "sobbing? you were not sobbing." there was a beat as she considered for a moment, followed with the jovial curve of her lips suddenly faltering. "were you? is that why the music was so loud?" with a nod of her head, she gestured to the counter where what was left of the still warm restaurant pizza she'd ordered was sitting, famous for having the best sauce in town and, more importantly, a tried and true remedy for sadness and insomnia. after grabbing a few plates and sliding one towards sunny, she sat at a bar stool by the counter, hands perched under her chin expectantly. "so?" lennon blinked. "is it someone new, someone old, or were you just feeling your music a little too viscerally again?"

call  it  intuition,  but  something  told  sunny  to  pick  another  spot  to  get  a  coffee  and  a  sweet  treat,  but  like  usual,  she  ignored  it.  she  hadn't  immediately  recognized  anyone  in  the  cafe,  not  that  she  was  actually  looking.  she  was  too  busy  eying  the  bakery  menu.  but  after  placing  her  order  she  turned  to  go  sit  to  wait  on  some  food.  her  eyes  narrowed,  not  being  able  to  tell  if  she  knew  the  person  in  the  booth  or  not.  but  upon  hearing  their  voice,  it  was  unmistakably  them.  “  no,  no  thanks.  i'm  good.  so,  you  out  scouting  for  more  women  to  take  advantage  of,  or  were  you  just  in  the  mood  for  ambiance  with  black  coffee?  ”  sunny  asked  with  a  sarcastic  tone.

Ripley was always one that loved to observe others, simply to see what made others tick. It had always been the case when they'd been more involved with crime, simply as reading people meant that a situation was more likely to be survived. People watching was also a great way to look for the more eligible women that they'd happily entertain in their more womanizing moods. But in this particular instance, Ripley instead found themselves nursing a black coffee and staring into the mental abyss as they questioned their steps in life that had led them to being self marooned in Palmview Grove. So much so they hadn't noted another beside them immediately "Oh, if you need the booth I can be done with this" They said in their low husky tone, their British accent thick as they waved dismissively at the drink before them.

sunny  wasn't  the  greatest  employee  at  the  marina  market,  in  fact,  sometimes  she  didn't  even  know  how  she  was  still  employed.  but  even  so,  she  continued  to  keep  showing  up  for  her  shifts,  and  they  let  her.  while  she  was  stocking  some  of  the  order  the  truck  brought  in  for  the  day,  she  was  essentially  in  her  own  world  before  hearing  someone  speaking.  “  oh,  shit.  yeah.  actually  i  have  a  trick  i  learned  because  i  go  through  the  same  struggle  all  the  time.  ”  she  grabbed  a  random  object  off  the  shelf  beside  her  before  using  it  to  knock  forward  and  maneuver  the  other  before  handing  it  off  to  the  other  girl.  “  whew.  i  felt  like  i  just  worked  out  my  core.  here  you  go.  "

Savannah liked to believe that she was self-sufficient, but there were some things that even the most self sufficient person couldn’t do. “Hey,” Sav called to the person beside her. It pained her to have to ask for help, especially since she wasn't a short woman, but she’d spent the last five minutes reaching and stretching and completely failing in grabbing the item that was just out of reach of her fingertips. She huffed a little, pointing. “Mind grabbing that for me. I seem to be a bit vertically challenged.”

[svnnygraves]

“  doesn't  it  feel  better  to  be  honest?  “  sunny  quipped  with  a  small  laugh.  as  she  listened  to  lennon's  full  scheduled  day  and  she  wasn't  even  talking  like  midday,  but  morning?  she  didn't  know  how  people  with  real  jobs  did  it,  maybe  that's  why  they  got  paid  way  more.  bigger  risk,  or  something  like  that.  "  jeez.  that's  a  lot,  don't  you  ever  get  stressed  or  burnt  out?  or  want  someone  else  to  take  care  of  it  for  you?  "  sunny  asked  curiously,  knowing  if  the  roles  were  reversed,  well  obviously,  she'd  have  felt  that  way.  ”  you're  so  wrong,  i  do  in  fact  care!  i'm  actually  invested  at  this  point,  why  is  he  gonna  have  a  juvie  record  at  all?  if  you're  allowed  to  tell  me.  god  i  bet  my  record  is  unsealed  –  you  know  what?  i  get  that,  i  take  things  home  with  me  from  my  shitty  job  at  the  market  all  the  time.  “  she  smirked  like  an  inside  joke  to  herself,  knowing  she  only  meant  oranges.  when  sunny  followed  suit  into  lennon's  apartment,  she  dropped  the  other  girl's  hand  before  reaching  the  kitchen.  “  you're  probably  right,  where's  the  goods?  but  also  do  you  mean  so  you  won't  hear  me  sobbing  through  the  wall?  ”  she  asked  jokingly  with  a  small  shrug. 

why was she like this? lennon was not known for being a pushover — despite often feeling like one in the presence of family and in the memories that plagued her from her youth, she'd become something of a hardass now. in court, at work, with strangers. but people had a way of weaseling into her heart despite her best efforts. some especially more than others. "okay. maybe more than a little," she admitted, shoulders dropping in a moment of reprieve as she watched sunny's gaze shift to her phone. the corners of her mouth couldn't keep themselves from turning up at the phrase big girl job. "... yes. well. i do have an arraignment at nine. but my guy's gonna take a plea, probably just some community service. managed to convince him that that would be preferable to a juvie record; even sealed, that kind of thing tends to follow you around." she should know. "but, oh my god, you so don't care about that. sorry. i really need to learn to stop taking stuff home with me. either way. i'm up now." she stepped aside, leaving room for sunny to follow her back to her door. "you better! something tells me with some food in you and freeing up whatever's on your mind we'll both sleep better tonight."

it wasn't unusual for sunny to be at the book nook buying more books she had overly ambitiously set out to read, only for them to collect dust on her shelves. it was mostly the occult variety, but she thought about branching out. keyword: thought. so she wandered toward an unfamiliar area, not much paying attention to her surroundings, mostly just eying the shelves, wondering where she'd ended up. until she felt force against her own frame, not realizing it until it was too late that she'd bumped into someone. “ oh my god, i'm so sorry. that was on me. are you okay? ” she asked before she reached down to start picking up books that fell from the collision.

Maya was looking through the children's books, trying to find more reading material for her students. She already had the classics like Rainbow Fish and Chika Chika Boom Boom. Maybe she could find some books on loving yourself or some on embracing diversity; that would be good. She decided to pick out a few books for her students but also decided to look around for a book for herself. She picked up a book that looked like fantasy and read the back of it. She was so lost in thought that she didn't realize that she was about to collide with someone.

[svnnygraves]

sunny  genuinely  did  feel  bad,  she  knew  she  couldn't  have  been  the  easiest  neighbor  to  have.  sometimes  she  swore  she  forgot  about  everyone  else  around  and  kind  of  disassociated  from  the  world.  maybe  that  was  something  she  needed  to  look  into,  eventually.  sunny's  eyebrows  tensed  up  until  she  watched  lennon's  features  soften.  “  only  a  little?  i  mean…  come  on,  who  couldn't  hear  pizza  through  a  wall  combined  with  blasting  music."  she  said  with  a  teasing  shrug.  with  an  almost  panicked  look  on  her  features,  sunny  grabbed  her  phone  out  of  her  pocket  and  eyed  the  time.  had  it  really  gotten  that  late?  maybe  she  did  have  trouble  pinning  time  down.  “  i  mean…  yes,  but  i  guess  the  good  thing  is  i  don't  have  to  go  until  late  morning.  shit.  ---  wait,  what  about  you?  you  have  like…  a  big  girl  job.”  she  didn't  mean  that  condescendingly,  sunny  just  knew  if  she  didn't  show  up,  she  wouldn't  be  disappointing  anyone  at  the  market,  except  maybe  her  manager,  and  her  future  paycheck.  but  lennon  appeared  to  have  things  way  more  together,  it  was  incredibly  admirable  to  sunny.  taking  a  deep  breath  when  lennon  had  prompted  a  loaded  question,  reached  for  the  other  girl's  hand.  "  i'll  answer  that  over  pizza?  ”  she  said,  trying  to  downplay  in  case  she  had  any  residual  mascara  stains. 

her fingers still clenched, lips pressed in a hard line, lennon was all but ready to unload her best disappointed mom speech complete with hardened tone and pinched brows onto sunny — until, that is, she saw her face, reading the subtle shyness that reminded her of a kid caught with their hand stuck in the cookie jar as guilt, maybe erroneously, but she couldn't help it. her own expression instantly softened, hands loosening and lips un-pressing. "... no," lennon started to shake her head, feigning a casual, unbothered air. "no. not at all. — well." a tilt of her head, and she nodded once. "maybe a little. but. i'm not surprised the only part you heard was me offering you food," she teased, a hint of a smile approaching her. exasperated, though she was, it was always in a weirdly endearing way with sunny. she could never stay mad at her for very long, despite how quick she was to cut off most other people that weren't directly blood related to her. "you know what time it is, right? don't you have to work tomorrow?" she could almost hear the voice of her own mother just then in the back of her mind, chastising her. you worry too much, lenny. but even when she tried not to, she couldn't stop herself. sometimes it felt like if she didn't worry, no one else would. "everything okay?"

was  there  a  saying  about  the  liberating  freedom  one  felt  when  they  were  out  on  their  own?  it  was  interesting  how  that  pendulum  swung  between  that,  and  soul  crushing  loneliness.  sometimes  within  the  same  hour,  hell,  sometimes  within  the  same  minute.  but  surely  there  was  nothing  mambo  no.  5  by  lou  bega  couldn't  cure  sunny  assured  herself.  arguably  the  best  gift  her  father  ever  got  her  was  a  jbl  party  box  speaker,  and  that  being  said,  she  was  certain  her  neighbors  and  possibly  beyond  that  thought  it  was  the  worst.  with  the  music  blasting  from  her  speaking  in  her  apartment,  she  could  feel  the  vibrations  on  the  floor,  ignoring  any  kind  of  safety  protocol  for  how  close  you  listened  to  it,  she  leaned  her  head  against  the  speaker,  bobbing  her  head  to  the  beat  of  the  song.  sunny  hadn't  even  paid  much  mind  to  the  time  it  must've  been,  not  when  time  goes  by  so  quickly,  what  was  the  point  in  keeping  track?  by  the  time  we  belong  together  by  mariah  carey  was  bumping  throughout  sunny's  apartment,  she  could've  swore  she  heard  noise  that  wasn't  her  own.  but  all  she  could  focus  on  was  the  disheartening  lyrics  coming  from  her  party  box.  '  i  can't  sleep  at  night,  when  you're  on  my  mind  bobby  womack's  on  the  radio  saying  to  me,  “if  you  think  you're  lonely  now"  wait  a  minute  this  is  too  deep,  too  deep.  ‘     “  god,  so  true,  mariah,  this  is  getting  too  deep.  ”    then  suddenly  the  unmistakable  noise  from  her  door  had  her  turning  down  her  speaker  before  going  to  lean  toward  the  door  to  listen.  recognizing  the  voice,  sunny  opened  the  door.     “  i’ll  be  completely  honest,  i  only  heard  ‘  pizza  ’  and  that  was  more  than  enough  for  me.  was  i…  too  loud  again?  ”   sunny  asked  her  neighbor  sheepishly.

"—hey!" the sounds of whatever weird shit her neighbor was listening to today were vibrating through the wall, admittedly — annoyingly, lennon kind of liked it, it had a good beat and the voice was almost soothing, if it hadn't been so loud. but liking it wasn't something she was willing to admit, especially not at prime sleeping hours. instead, she was knocking on the wall using the sternest, yelly-est voice she could muster without disturbing anyone else. "sunny, please! you promised no more music after midnight!!" if there was a response (but honestly, there probably wasn't) lennon didn't hear one, but instead of giving up she sighed a deep sigh and went out from her own apartment into the hallway, leaning into sunny's door so she could speak through the hinges. "listen. i may or may not have ordered some delivery earlier. if you switch to headphones, there's a slice of ocean view pizza with your name on it."

one thing about sunny, is she wasn't gonna pass up free anything. even if she wasn't particularly a fan of seafood, i mean some people were, right? maybe they knew something she didn't. albeit, she wasn't particularly the daring type when it came to food, she fell into that creature of habit category. but dammit, she was fun, she was daring, and it was just food, right? catching what mila had uttered, it caused sunny to sigh with relief. “ you really haven't? you're not just saying that? because…" she trailed off as she narrowed in her focus. sunny realized then she might've appeared to have been looking at the oysters more like a science project instead of a meal. “ confession time? ” she asked before scooping one up herself. “ we might be trying these out together at the same time, but you know what? we'll know for the future this way. should i count, or should we just…”  get into it, she thought to herself. she angled her head trying to figure out how people even eat an oyster.

struggles with anger issues, has outbursts that usually happen at the worst possible time 

her hometown is where mothman was famously cited, and yeah she makes that a personality trait

she practices witchcraft and has an altar to the deities she worships

she loves to believe in the unbelievable, ghosts, aliens, anything paranormal, she's all over that

she's unconciously very self motivated, but lowkey thinks she does things for other people's benefits

she tends to have a criminal mindset and lacks boundaries stemming from her own upbringing

she doesn't really see anything wrong with crime as long as it in her eyes is justified

actively is always scheming her revenge, never get too comfortable she's coming even if it's years in the process :/

playlists are her love language!!!!1

finds comfort in meditation instead of going fucking insane, sometimes both

always falls for emotionally unavailable people, a lot of times her bosses or people not available 😭

very into metaphysics like tarot, astrology, etc

loves horror movies and probably watches at least one a day (probably while she’s eating dinner ngl)

sunny grew up in a tumultuous household with her parents always fighting and money was always tight

 it wasn’t until she was 9 that she moved to palmview where she was hopeful things would improve since her father landed a better job, but things quickly deteriorated

as she got older her mom developed bad habits with drugs, and her father coped with alcohol 

 as a byproduct she was kind of abandoned emotionally, and didn’t really have anyone to turn to

her mom was self medicating a larger problem under the surface, and sunny had the misfortune of walking in on her mom trying on several occasions to take her own life

as a result she couldn’t focus in school or, would hyper focus on the wrong things and daydream instead of listening in her classes

got the rep of not only the new kid, but the weird new kid 

and as things usually happen, one day when her guard was down because her mom appeared to be doing better, so she decided to go hang out at a friend’s house after school one day. 

when she returned home later than normal, she walked around her house looking for her mom. to her disbelief, she found her mom hanging from the shower curtain rod, and was in denial that her mom was really gone since she’d always caught it in time before. 

hours later her father found sunny holding her mom up talking to her limp body about how she made a friend at school finally. 

when the emts arrived on scene trying to load her mom onto the stretcher, sunny wouldn’t allow them to take her mom away from her until her dad had to physically pick her up and carry her away 

she blamed herself for not being there for her mom sooner

she hasn’t ever really dealt with her mother’s death, i think in a way she tried to acquaint herself closely with death instead. she would buy ouija boards trying to contact her mother from the other side. hire psychic mediums, go to palm readers, anything for a sign from her mom. i think her anger really manifested more after her mom's passing, and caused her to stop caring as much about the consequences of the law because she felt like she had nothing more to lose.

━━ ⟢ i. connections 

 literally anything and everything

people she’s once passed on the street and projected romantic fantasies on, friends, friends of a friend, cousins, exes, ex hookups, ex situationships, enemies, neighbors, regulars at the market she works at, old co-workers, old classmates, old classmates that used to bully her, someone she's stolen from, people from places she's vandalized, etc etc gimme gimme gimme
