"She's not here," Mack says in lieu of a greeting after opening the door after a series of knocks revealed Lorelai Lewis on the other end of it. She's far from a rare sight in the apartment he shared with his sister, part and parcel of the pair of them being best friends.

He wanders from the door and lets her follow him inside if she still wanted to in Macaulay's absence, heading to his fridge to get a bottle of water for the hungover scratch in his throat that was making his throat hoarse. His night had taken a sharp turn somewhere around bleach blonde Adam Levine and a purple teletubby with coke to spare, and he doesn't remember the exact ins and outs of what followed.

"She's at Lucky's if you're looking for her," He adds before he screws off the cap of the bottle and takes down half of it in a glug.

"Scottie. Nolan."

If Atlas had to repeat himself one more time to the station desk clerk, he was going to lose his cool and end up hauled into one of the holding cells that he knows his sister was currently in. Lori telling him that Scottie had gotten herself arrested had managed to mostly sober him up, enough to have called her former foster father on the way so they he could secure actual bail money.

Just as the woman was about to say once again that there was no one by that name there tonight, Atlas tries something he doesn't want to work.

"Scarlett. Try Scarlett Nolan then, and don't fucking call her that if you know what's good for you."

He's not intending to be threatening as he makes his way back to the waiting area for her to be released before he could be issued with another warning to calm down. It was just impossible for him to play any sort of nice where cops were involved, even if it sounded like Scottie was reaping the rewards of a stupid move.

"Please don't tell Cricket I'm doing this," Astrid said sheepishly as their hand dangled one of Cricket's socks over the edge of the fire. "It's not, like, malicious or anything. She and I are cool now. Just thought it might be like, cleansing, or whatever. We're turning a page, you know?"

where and when: black cat cafe, august 12th

"I need you to listen very carefully to what I'm about to ask you," X says slowly, trying to entice the blonde's focus back to him. It had been his choice on where to meet and he thought the cafe was a safe bet to risk not running into Van while they did, but he miscalculated how distracted Lori would get by the actual cat roaming around and he couldn't risk her only taking onboard half of what he was saying while she pspspspsp'd.

"Can you do that for me?"

eavesdrop + lemi's family

"I asked Lucky to be my best man," Will revealed to Lemie over their morning cup of coffee at the Cottage. Normally he liked to keep their private and work lives seperate but there wasn't enough hours in the day lately. Wedding planning came third to day to day life and managing the Cottage together.

Picking Lucky to be his best man had been the easiest wedding decision Will had to make. Will thought a moment before adding, "Do you think we should have Theo as flower girl? I think Lucky would like that."

"I know Cherry will be up there with us because when is she not hovering around," Will joked as he put his coffee cup down. "I think Lori should be too, but of course- it's your decision."

Lori was a hard one to get a read on, unlike her twin brother. It was a verbal sparring match every time they saw each other, but thankfully, Lemie had given him plenty of practice when it came to talking and taking shit from a Lewis woman. There were moments of sweetness from her, however, it was wise to never point them out.

"We should probably also talk about.. your parents." Given the recent issues that Lemie had with her mother, it was still a touchy subject. Like pressing on a healing bruise. "It's up to you if you want them there." Personally, Will could do without having Mabel there, judging and passing snide comments to anyone who would listen. Lemie's dad was fine. Will had met him once or twice but it was hard to feel any kind of affection towards the people who had raised Lemie.

Which brought him to the final member of the Lewis family. "And Lee. Definitely not invited," he tacked on the end. Another easy decision. Lee would turn the whole thing into a circus, with him at the very center. As far as the eldest sibling was concerned, it was his world and everyone else was just living it. Will didn't consider himself a violent man, but he did think that Lee could do with a good punch to the face to bring him back to reality.

"—oh. Hi," Andy said when the door swung open to reveal Lorelai. She was expecting Cricket; they were already running late to a community garden meeting, but Andy had turned her room over trying to find a missing sock.

Her limited interactions with Lorelai usually left Andy feeling off-kilter — she got the feeling that she'd done something to annoy her, but for the life of her she couldn't figure out what. "Sorry, I'm here for Cricket. We've got a garden thing and she said she'll be ready in a few."

Sure have, not admitting to it though.

Why are you asking about my waxing habits? Freak.

Please, I use other peoples wardrobes as my own personal shopping mall, right now I have two of Pax' hoodies, a pair of crickets shoes and Lorelais dress tossed in my chair. ( @paxton-brady, @cricketcampbell, @lorelailewis )

Fake conversations every day, couldn't tell you a thing most people say to me.

The walk from the library to Ocean Crest had gone as Keo expected it to. A little awkward, a lot unsure, the change in a previously comfortable shared presence residing almost completely with him.

Like most things that were difficult, it makes him want to cut and run. Trail back a little in the last few metres between them and the apartment building, a sharp turn in the opposite direction when he was out of her peripheral and he would be in the wind.

There's no mistaking the appeal, but if he doesn't have a long overdue conversation with her now, he never will.

The hesitancy stays with him even as he follows her into her apartment, wondering if the silence and now eyes glaring at him from the kitchen was a false sense of security and either of her roommates may pop out at any given moment.

"Is it just you here?"

Lorelai's eyes widen comically at the monstrosity of a dress that Lemie holds up on the hanger. This can't be the perfect dress that Lemie had texted her about earlier that afternoon—it was hideous.

It was yellow and had feathers and tulle in all the wrong places.

"It's—" Lorelai falls short, unable to string a sentence together. Her lips curve downwards into an unmistakable disgusted grimace. "Did you have to skin Big Bird for that thing?" @lemielewis

"So..."

Cricket pauses, partly for effect, but mostly because she feels the need to hold her breath as she leans closer to Lori's mirror and meticulously places one of the rainbow colored gemstones to the corner of her eye with her tweezers.

"Since you've obviously made up, are you finally going to tell me what you were even fighting about in the first place?"

Neither of the pair had offered up the information, nor had Cricket asked, despite the curiosity that'd had a chokehold on her since right after the bash when she'd noticed the obvious shift in things between her roommate and her cousin.

(As much as she'd wanted to know, the knowledge came with the risk of being expected to pick sides--which was never fun, but felt all around impossible when both parties involved were family to her. Losing either just wasn't an option.)

"Ah, see. I knew if I moved around these tables enough I'd have to end up sitting across from someone hot at some point."

Law of averages, simple deduction or showing up with the knowledge that she would be there -- it didn't matter. He was finally at the table he wanted to be at.

Atlas had little interest in speed dating and even less interest in everyone else who was attending it, but the idea of the pair of them signing up to it had seemed a funny one at the time and he was already on his fifth backstory.

"So, what'cha looking for? Tall, dark and handsome?" Asks short, pale and depends-on-the-audience, "Maybe a bitta East Coast excellence after too many West Coast weirdos? You're in luck if so."
