@wiccaanways　　 over the top.  but it sounds good.  continue.

how does… * he walks over to the refrigerator, head tilting as he looks at the food inside, fingers tapping on the edge of the door. he perks up slightly * shrimp scampi and a nice white chocolate mousse with a raspberry sauce for dessert sound? 

then what do you think of me? honestly?

@wiccaanways　　 i don't think anyone is broken.

@wiccaanways　　 so ..  act like this is your first try.  you're just asking me out on a date and seeing where it leads.  right ? 

/ you /… i wanted to try again with you– i just didn’t know how to start.

@wiccaanways　　 jack.  what do you want ?

@bldbound　　 i know. 　[ a head tilt to look up at him, ] 　i say no ..  then what ? 

yeah? so let ‘em find you. listen girl, they need your consent. the whole marriage arrangement is based on you willingly saying ‘i do’ [ a shrug of broad, tired shoulders, ash-stained hand lifting to pull the cigarette from between his teeth ] they’ll achieve that through whatever means they gotta, but it’s up to you to be resilient. 

@bldbound　　 [ she looked down to avoid looking at her own reflection,  picking at her nails with obvious nervousness, ] 　i know.  i know.  i don't have anywhere to go where they ..  / he /  won't find me.

@frankisstien　　 you're dripping on my carpet. 

so   ?   the glare   ?

@frankisstien　　 i don't care if you are,   even if i did it wouldn't matter.

@godsadored　　 it's mine now !
