OPEN.

nadine had always been out of place, but this is probably worse than usual. it is as if they just suddenly appear, no big burst of magic or grand entrance. they are just in this place that they weren’t before, and probably aren’t supposed to be. they steady themselves, not because the trip was hard, but because their surroundings have changed so much.

“holy fuck.” the accidental time travel was supposed to get easier, one day. it hasn’t. “where uh, where the fuck is this?” they ask. and while there was no convenient time to jump around like this, they just wished they had been wearing something else. the bright pink sweatpants with JUICY written on the ass kind of make them stand out. in any time period.

the second that charlie had mentioned wanting to paint his nails, nadine had gone out to buy a pack with a bunch of colors. it had been so long since they'd done anything with nail polish, even though it used to be a favorite of theirs. it just didn't travel well. so they'd invited him over to the motel, and as soon as they were done with his nails, they were doing their own, too.

"okay, so what color do you want?" a bright grin, as they present the various options. a whole rainbow of them. and then, of course, black.

"not gonna lie, that was pretty epic." they feel that this might be the only way to break the awkwardness that has fallen over the room now that everything has settled. maybe that just makes it worse? either way, they turn over to look up at him. he looks really pretty like this.

(god fucking dammit. they really do like him, don't they?)

"really hoping you agree with that. would suck if you were like, nah that was shit, or something."

"can't you just like... magic it back together, or something? is that a thing you can do?"

OPEN.

"i think i might be like... kind of destined to be a failure." there is a small sliver of moonlight that pokes down from a hole in the ceiling. over their time spent traveling, they had gotten pretty good at finding little places like these, and while they usually kept them too themself, they had decided to share. for once.

they always spent so much fucking time in someone else's head, is it too much to ask that someone take a turn in theirs?

"like, y'know how some people are like uh... childhood musical prodigies, and shit. they come out the womb just playing piano. yeah, i think i'm like that, but i'm just good at fucking shit up. or something." they are pressing the heels of their hands into their eyes as they talk.

"i fucking. flunked out of college before all this shit. it was fucking. community college, too."

See, normally Nadine was able to fumble their way through the past because... well, honestly they weren't sure why. Maybe because they had paid a little bit of attention in history? But the fucking future. Oh god. That's why their smile is just a bit forced.

"Dude, my chronos are like... all sorts of fucked up right now, you have no idea." Just. Act. Casual. "So uh, sick weather. Right?"

@gallowsraised ... continued.

"1969..." They repeat the words, though there isn't a large amount of feeling attached to them right now. It's a year that they've never been to before, which is actually like... most years. "Mind if I take a hit?" They ask, in reference to the joint. It's not like the two of them are buddies, but this is a party. Worst case scenario, the other says no. "I'm not stoned enough for this shit."

4'11", dark wavy hair, golden skin, eyes dark as midnight. Is a little in love with both the ocean and the moon, but she's so full of love and light that there's enough to go around. Warm, kind, nurturing. Oh, and the autistic/adhd swag is off the charts

"okay, not to move to fast or anything but uh... will you marry me?"

laughter spills from them, then. "well yeah, of course not! i was just joking around, i promise. really!" they couldn't help themselves. hands are offered out one more time. "this time i'll do it for real, i promise." expression softens, hoping to let him know that they mean it this time.

OPEN.

“did i… did i not tell you about the time traveling thing?” they often forgot who knew and who didn’t. so sometimes, mistakes like this happened. “right. right. so, i’m a time traveler.”

"tried reading that dude's mind. see if i could figure out his strategy, or whatever." they point to someone across the room who is also looking over to nadine. flirting is how they tried. "then i uh, quickly realized. don't know shit about chess. so...."
