the plot:

Obsessed with how expressive Victoria Coren Mitchell is (part 2)

[csswingandeasy]

Yes, all is going well with my first attempt at a murder mystery novel.

[emotinalsupportturtle]

I think it’s obvious that one of the things I find most attractive in a person is a good sense of humour, evidenced by the number of comedians I have crushes on

Make and wear a popcorn necklace with at least five pieces of popcorn and then do the opposite of the following: You must under no circumstances not avoid not making the bell not ring. The task is over when you have either rung the bell or not rung the bell and said "I did the right thing" three times. Fastest to not do the wrong thing wins. If you don't do the right thing, you lose five points.

breaking point

Erica watches through the window as Coren dozes on the floor with a fond smile on her face. They're so easy to handle nowadays. They practically ask for it. It's especially delightful considering how hard they'd fought it at first.

God, they'd fought. They'd tried so hard to resist. They had sung at first, loud angry songs of rebellion, and then any songs at all, nursery rhymes, lullabies, and then back up to screaming and then, as their voice started to go, an endless stream of nonsense chatter, anything to keep the noise out of their head.

None of it worked, of course. It only delayed the inevitable. Still, they'd held out longer then most, and she'll always fondly recall the moment they finally broke, their weak voice finally giving out as they slumped to the ground. They'd just had the strength to raise their head and look up, and the look of horror and desperation and, below it, awful resignation– oh, it was delicious.

Milo didn't have a single breaking point, that they can recall. It was more like a slow wearing down, a series of blows chipping their spirit away.

Losing Coren was the first blow, of course. But there was some time after that when they still had hope, still thought that maybe if they stuck it out long enough, they could get their friend back. They can't really recall when they stopped hoping. Maybe they never did. But it definitely faded, became more and more of a distant fantasy and less a tangible possibility, and meanwhile their hours got longer and longer and they had less and less time outside of work until one day they realized they hadn't slept for more than 3 hours in at least a week and were so tired they couldn't even feel mad about it.

But, you know. That was fine, actually. Already they could barely remember what being well-rested felt like, so it wasn't like they were missing much. And they needed to stay, to be able to keep an eye on Coren, to keep trying to think of a way to get them back.

When Coren hadn't recognized them, that was a bit of a blow, but not too much of an obstacle. But when it had actually attacked them, without provocation even, just because it seemed to think it was fun, that had been— for a bit, Milo really thought that was it. There was no coming back from that.

And yet they'd still stayed, because... because, at that point, they didn't know what else to do. They'd gotten so used to their endless, mindnumbing routine, so worn down by ages of just wait it out and hope, that even with no hope left they couldn't muster up the energy to actually do anything about it.

Sometimes they think that going down fighting would have been better than this.

Ray never had a breaking point, because Ray has never needed to be broken. Ray has never done anything wrong, ever. Ray cannot do anything wrong. She knows how easily one single slip-up can ruin a person, and she refuses to let that be her. He is perfect, and he will remain perfect, and he will not break. He will not.

He won't. He won't. He won't.

She can't.

sally phillips, victoria coren mitchell and lucy beaumont have the same vibes to me (blonde, posh-looking women who secretly have a crazy person trapped in them and we're also taskmaster contestants) (I am also low-key in love with all of them)
