Tossing around the idea of apping her somewhere. Suggestions are loved

[ambitious]

You're not seriously considering this again, are you? Do you remember how well it worked out the last time? Trainwreck seems pretty appropriate. Things are going really good for me. My grades are almost perfect, Connecticut is beautiful....I don't have to put up with Rachel all the time. Don't you think that the fact you can't settle on one game should maybe be a sign that this is a ridiculously stupid idea?

My mun is thinking of putting me somewhere too. I'm not sure I'm liking the sound of it.

[ambitious]

It's completely insane. I've given up on the idea that one day she might get bored bossing me around, but this is too much.

(A beat, a deep breath)

Where's yours thinking of sending you?

[muled]

She once debated this Holly Heights place, but I think she lost her damn mind. She's still looking. I'm sort of hoping she forgets all about it and just keeps me in memes.

[ambitious]

Mine looked at the one for a while too, but it seems like she's decided against it. Too "slice of life". Which, I'm fairly certain, just means it's not twisted enough for her.

[blaineandrson]

If you find somewhere, I just might join you.

I'm in Chicago with angels and demons and werewolves and stuff. It's totally awesome. We even had dinosaurs for a week! Buuuuut, my mun sucks a lot and missed it because she's been really busy with her own life or something...I don't know.

It's kinda lonely there though cuz I don't know anyone. I would love it so much to have you there with me, even though I shouldn't want you to be there. We'd be like The Unholy Trinity minus one.

[ambitious]

Really? (There's no denying the fact that she's brightened considerably at that thought. Sure, it'll still probably suck, but at least she wouldn't be alone) So yours is looking at tossing you around too?

[ambitious]

You're not serious. Werewolves and dinosaurs and demons? (Notice she doesn't mention the angels. She might not wear that little gold cross as much anymore, but that belief was pretty firmly instilled in her) That sounds horrible. (Which basically means she might get royally screwed here) Why would your mun toss you in a place like that without me or Santana? (There to look out for you. That's the part she left out)

[somanylyrics]

Yeah but the demons aren't always bad. Some of them are very nice. She sent me there because it's where she plays when she puts people in games. I don't know. I didn't have a Santana or a you to take with me.

What kind of game does yours want to send you to?

[blaineandrson]

Really { He thought, "what could it hurt. Just might be fun after all".} Most definitely.

how did i miss this

[inflexibly]

Either that, or she's just looking for the so-called "perfect game". Besides, not everything that comes out of a trainwreck is bad. [ really, they could probably co-write "how to survive a trainwreck". ]

I....may have never posted it to plurk :/ but you're here now!

[ambitious]

I think her idea of perfect is in a whole different universe than mine. (It's the story of their lives, to be honest. "What to do when your canon hates you") I know, I know. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, but I've already done that. (It wasn't a trainwreck, but.... close enough) Can't I just relax and enjoy myself for once?

[inflexibly]

What doesn't kill you still hurts like hell, though. [ not his most encouraging moment, but said with a small smile. it's an attempt. ] You know, I think relaxing is actually against the rules.

[ambitious]

(Hey, at least his attempt at encouragement is honest. It's better than she'd have gotten out of those horrible pamphlets Ms. Pillsbury was always passing out) If it looks like they're about to have fun, ruin it in the most horrible way possible. Do they get some kind of twisted handbook when they start all this?

[inflexibly]

Car accident, giant scandal... [ a small shrug. sounds about par for the course in nate's experience. ] Oddly enough, it seems like they just get their kicks from it, but maybe if they didn't talk to each other...

[ but that might be asking too much. ]

[ambitious]

I don't know. I think even if they stopped talking to each other they could still come up with plenty of twisted crap to put us through. They'd just have to get their ideas elsewhere. (Oh Nate. The two of you could switch lives and you'd barely know the difference)

[inflexibly]

You have a point. They'd only really have to use their imaginations more instead of bouncing off each other. It's almost a scary thought.

[ambitious]

Exactly. At least the way things are now, most of what they come up with is going to be cliched and overused. I'm not in a big hurry to find out what they can come up with when left to their own devices.

[inflexibly]

As long as The Notebook isn't involved, I think I'm good. Cliche isn't so bad in retrospect.

[ambitious]

Oh come on. I'll bet you could give Ryan Gosling a run for his money if you really wanted to.

[inflexibly]

You think so? [ no nate, that isn't the point. ] I'll have to keep that in mind.

[ambitious]

Absolutely. (It's ok, Nate. You can be proud. That's a lot to live up to) I'd watch it, at least.

[inflexibly]

Well, I'm only game if you get to play my Rachel McAdams. Otherwise... I'm not really much of an actor.

[ambitious]

I could think of worse roles to play. At least they got their happy ending.

[inflexibly]

Who says you won't get your happy ending, anyway? Not that either of our track records are great, but...

[ambitious]

It's kind of difficult to be optimistic around this one. You should see the other people in her headspace. It's like a house of horrors.

[inflexibly]

Hey, keep your chin up. You're smart, beautiful, funny... And a hell of a lot of other things. You'll get your happy ending. [ nate will share his naive optimism. ]

[ambitious]

(Once upon a time, Quinn was naive too. Hahahahahahaha) What about you? Are you geting shuttled off somewhere too?

[inflexibly]

[ and nate might be mayor!! isn't nyc just so lucky? ] Honestly? I'm not sure. Years of hanging around and she's still weird about it.

[ambitious]

(luck is definitely.....a word for it)

Mine's the same way, so I guess maybe I shouldn't be concerned just yet. I can't count the number of times she's started an app and then just quit for no reason in particular.

[inflexibly]

Maybe we'll end up together, who knows. I wouldn't underestimate them, though.

[ambitious]

I'm not underestimating, just....hoping she'll stay true to form. But at least if we end up together it might not be so horrible.

[inflexibly]

There are worse outcomes. [ and that optimism is back, curving his lips into a smile. ]

[ambitious]

(Which she can't help returning. She might be naturally pessimistic, but his optimism is kind of infectious) Are you counting our Notebook reenactment in that?

[inflexibly]

The rain scene wasn't too bad. [ but he isn't too keen on the whole years apart deal. ]

[ambitious]

You just like what followed the rain scene. (Try to tell her she's wrong, Nate)

[inflexibly]

What, you didn't? [ he's not going down alone. ]

[ambitious]

(well that's just not fair) I'm always in favour of half baked Ryan Gosling.
