“thank you, it is a goal of mine to do away with any vain and egotistical opinions about my appearance. i love myself too much to dress or look any certain way for anyone. you know, after winning hundreds of thousands of dollars for being beautiful it gets pretty old.” she nodded with a smile, letting valencia’s attempts at insults roll off her back. “aw, now you’re eavesdropping on my conversations, too? i’ll say, vanessa, either you’re really obsessed with me or this is your way of flirting. if the latter is true, i’ll just respectfully decline right now. i’m flattered and all, but we all saw how your last relationship went and i just don’t think i’m into it.” she let her smile widen– a stranger looking in could easily mistake this smile for a genuine one, but they both knew the truth. “well shit, we’re enemies? i thought we were besties and this was just our thing. i made you a friendship bracelet on the way here, what am i supposed to do with that now?”

"Am I really getting a lecture on vanity and egotism from a pageant queen? This level of irony rivals even Voltaire," Val shot back with laughter dripping in mock humor and malice. "Oh, not intentionally. Did you know that our ears are made to pick up on unpleasant sounds over everything else? That, and the shrill echoing nature of your voice are the only answers I have. But if it helps you to sleep at night to think that I obsess over you, who am I to suggest otherwise?" The attempt at rubbing salt in Valencia's wounds was met with an amused chuckle. "You mean where I dumped him for not being ambitious enough to keep up with me? I can see how that would be a problem for you." Had she been able to roll her eyes any harder, undoubtedly they would have fallen out of her head. "Too bad it wasn't a necklace or you could use it as a noose."

“So pretty much everyone on this trip? Maybe next time. No way. Wait, how did it go? I hope I won’t have to drive again. There’s too much pressure to pick music that everyone likes.”

"Who knows, maybe that is someone's secret? Guess we will find out. I have my fingers crossed. You mean Dora the Explorer wasn't a huge hit with your latest crew? Shocking."

“Do you have a problem with my car?  I know it’s nothing fancy but I’m sure it’s up to your high standards.”

"As fun as this whole skirting around the point would be to continue, I am going to opt out. No point in pretending we like each other or can tolerate each other's company."

“Or not… I mean annoyance is all in your head, if you chose to let it go and not bother you, you could be cure of annoyance.”

"Thank you so much for that freshman psych analysis. Are you charging for your services, or was that for free?"

“i think it’s cute that you think i care about your opinions. we both know it couldn’t be farther from the truth.” isabela laid a hand over her heart, voice seeping in fake, syrupy sweetness. she flashed her a forced smile, one edging on malicious, crossing her arms over her chest. “oh, yes, because i’m sure it’s SO hard for you to find someone who doesn’t like you, huh valerie?” she emphasizes the mistake in her sentence– calling people by the incorrect name intentionally was one of her favorite things to do, as it usually got under their skin. “it’s tempting, really. sometimes i think tumbling off the roof would be preferable to talking to you.”

"I don't think you care. Your outfit alone suggests how little you care about, well, anything," she replied with a fake smile. "Valerie? Wow, that's cute, and also completely transparent since I have seen you call at least three people by the wrong name tonight. You either have a piss poor memory or you are trying really hard to make everyone feel irrelevant. Either way, that's just honestly sad." Valencia shrugged, taking a sip of her drink. "Is that supposed to be an insult? It is actually my sole intent to make my enemies wish for death, so I would call it a success in that case."

SHADOWHUNTERS + BOOK QUOTES

@frvncisdurant

To be perfectly honest, she could not believe she had invited, of all people, Francis to join her on probably the most important excursion in all of Orlando. Though the Capitol may have topped her list of places she looked forward to seeing - it would be her future home one day, after all - Harry Potter World was probably a very close second. And Valencia's dedication knew no bounds. For three hours they had stood in this crowded corridor, watching delighted person after person be chosen as the one who would have a wand choose them. And, eventually, the same would happen for Val. How lame to walk in the store and choose someone else's wand, when she could instead have it choose her? It was an opportunity she would not miss out on.

"If I had known we would be standing here this long, I would have brought a butterbeer."

@genrosen

If Valencia did not make one geek stop on all of her trips, then she would be disappointed in herself; after all, she did have a reputation to maintain. The only problem was, friends? Well, in this group, they were in short supply. At least Genevieve was on the short list of people that would not be considered friends, but who also were not enemies. And if she shared in some of Val's nerdy tendencies even better.

When she was finished getting ready, she made her way to Gen's room, knocking on the door in an obnoxious manner. "I said twenty minutes, lets get out of here."

@ohtiarna

It was no secret that Valencia had problems making friends, especially those of the female persuasion. From the moment they met, though, Val liked Tiarna. It was hard not to, even for a girl who vowed to 'trust no bitch until they prove otherwise.' Of course, it helped that she came as a package deal with Atlas, and whoever her best friend approved of, there was a good chance that Valencia would too.

Swimming with dolphins may have seemed far-fetched as an activity Valencia would enjoy, but there was a part of her actually looking forward to it. And with such agreeable company, it was even better.

The brunette took in the nice weather as she waited for her friend to arrive, thankful for an opportunity to get away from the entire group for a little while.

Gen: You don't have to. When do you want to go?

Val: Alright fine, I'll just get your ticket. Leave in 20?

Gen: Sure; It's a a little far, though. Do you want me to drive?

Val: Yes. I can pay for the gas, or whatever.

“no, i don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. i definitely have not had too much to drink.” because the way she was slurring her words was very convincing, of course. she just didn’t need anyone to take care of her, she didn’t. she could handle herself. “now, if all you’re going to do is give me unwanted and unsolicited advice on how much liquor you thing i can hold, you can piss right off.”

"I don't know about the rest of them, but I am thoroughly convinced." Valencia had overheard the conversation from where she stood, red solo cup in hand, though she had only had a few sips all night. "But, hey, it's not like I care if you tumble off the roof in a drunken stupor. Only sad because I would have to find someone else to constantly bicker with." Not that that would be difficult for Valencia.

Val: Do you want to go the Kennedy Space Center with me?

Val: But don't get in your head that just because I am inviting you along we are suddenly friends or something.

“i…” tessa started speaking but quickly let her sentence fade away, unsure of exactly how to respond to her. “no, i’m not a five year old.” she turned away from valencia, stuffing some socks in the drawer. “i don’t wanna be in your space anyway.” she grumbled under her breath, not entirely caring whether or not her roommate heard.

When the girl hesitated, Valencia regarded her with an incredulous expression - surely, this girl wasn't seriously considering the notion. "Well, that's a relief," Val replied with biting sarcasm when Tessa finally replied. "The feeling is mutual," she muttered back as she made her way to the restroom to freshen up after the long trip.

“I don’t see why you’re complaining. You weren’t the one behind the wheel. Wait till it’s your turn to drive; maybe then you’d be eligible to join the club and whine all you like.”

"If you are trying to persuade me not to complain, you really don't know me that well at all."
