                                  ❛      YOU KNOW,       the  fact  that  you  don’t  just  take  me  at  my  word  is  unsettling.       truly,         what  about  me  makes  you  think i  would  LIE ?       what  is  my gain ?       ❜        he  bats  long  lashes  at  her,         voice  overly  dramatic.     [  when  was  it  NOT ?  ]              he  shakes  his  head  with  a  grin  &&  crosses  his  arms  across  broad  chest.      ❛        i  like  you,      marge  simpson.      because  of  that,            you  should  come  with me.        we’re  going  to  the  library  to  see  if  i  can  scare  anyone  with  my  prosthetic.     &&  maybe  afterwards,              we’ll  get  some   free  cancer  cookies   at  the  bakery  down  the  road  that  literally  cannot give  me  enough  cookies  to  satisfy  their  INTERNAL  CRISIS  of  not  being  able  to  give  me  a  replacement,     fleshy  leg.        ❜
Tumblr media
      Their eyes meet & she’s instantly hooked – he spins the same web of nonsense that she’s so FOND of herself – finally she’s found an equal – a counterpart. It’s nice to know she’s not the only one out there yearning for something more – & twisting words to make it so. “SLIGHTLY above average ?? Impressive. Your smile, however – what awards did you win exactly ?? I’m going to need to see physical proof of those.”

                                ❛          i  know  for  a  FACT  that  most  girls  do  not  like  it.     --------  when  they  see  my  leg,   [ or  LACK  thereof,        mind you ]     they  get  ENRAGED.      but  that’s  the  beauty  of  a  METAPHOR.        it’s  not  supposed  to  make  sense  to  those  who  cannot  READ  BETWEEN  THE  LINES.            i  never  LIGHT  it.          [  trust me,    the  LAST  thing  i  want  is  to  have  another  bout  of  cancer.  ]        it’s  just  a  SYMBOL  of     c o n t r o l    in  an  otherwise  tumultuous  world.       ❜

                       --------------------  ❛   but  what  DOES  make  sense  these  days?         we’re all merely shouting into the void      -----     && honestly,        that’s  even  more  CREEPY  than  my  staring  habit.             i’m  only      S T A R I N G      because  you’re     b e a u t i f u l.          nothing creepy.        near-death-experiences       have  a       N A S T Y     H A B I T     of  making  you  take  life  like  every  second  actually  MATTERS.       like  staring  at  a  pretty  girl  in  the  library.        i  might  NEVER  get  the  chance  again !       ❜
Tumblr media
      “That DOESN’T even make sense,” she huffs, irritated beyond belief. She came to the library ( alert the presses – Brooke Davis has set foot in a LIBRARY ) – for some peace & quiet while she works on some presidential paperwork ( despite having an office for that sort of thing – with all the foot-traffic passing by the door, it was hardly a productive place to work ). “Now – if you’re done being a MEGA-CREEP, I have things to get done.”

           ❛    you don’t have to do that, really.    ❜       accented tongue speaks on AUTOPILOT — it’s true. peggy can buy her own cup of coffee, but she’s working on being less volatile about it. besides, she probably looks absolutely mad –––– if she saw someone like her acting odd on a bench, she’d probably try and offer help, too. peggy smiles, but it’s soft and a little bit slow. however, at the very least, it warms her — and gives her the willpower to stand. even if she doesn’t go to get coffee, peggy would have to stand EVENTUALLY.        ❛    the caramel one sounds rather nice right about now. it’s nearby, you said ?    ❜

Tumblr media
                      -------------- there’s  a  moment  that  a    S P A R K    is  clear  in  his  bright  blue  gaze.      he’s  never  met  someone  so  LIKE-MINDED.      (      && by  that,       someone  so  willing  to  cover  their  ass  with  existential  bullshit  on  a  moments  notice.      )        ❛    ---------you make a VALID POINT,     marge.     ❜     he  smirks  just  a  bit.     ❛    i’d  like  to  think  i’m  here  only  at  the  hand  of  GOD  himself,      who  clearly  expects  me  to  rock  the  world  with  my  SLIGHTLY  ABOVE  AVERAGE  INTELLIGENCE  &&  AWARD  WINNING  SMILE.   ❜
Tumblr media
      Her smirk evolves into something much more genuine when she takes in the sight of his grin – it’s infectious. “Marge is fine. You could’ve stuck with it.” She’s one of those firstie-lasties – never hearing her name spoken unless it was in it’s entirety. It was a nice change – even if it was the wrong name. “You can have more than a second. Time is valuable, but I have plenty to spare.” She tries not to look as he adjusts – doesn’t want him to think she’s watching him like a caged animal. His question is one she doesn’t have an answer to – & in true Margo fashion, she attempts to tip-toe around it. “Why are any of us here ?? It’s really an existential wondering – something that mankind has pondered for eons.”

                              ---------------- he  resists  the  urge  to   s m i l e.      or  at  least,       he  attempts  to.      he  ends  up  with  his  crooked  grin,       a  shake  of  his  head  signaling  his  amusement.    ❛      margo.     ❜     he  corrects  himself,             her  name  settling  on  his  tongue  easily.          ❛         sorry   -----    give me a second,  ❜           he  requests,             bending  over    &&    pulling  at  the  hem  of  his pants  leg  to  expose  his   p r o s t h e t i c.      he  adjusts  the  base,         face  contorting  just  slightly  in    d i s c o m f o r t.            he  sighs  &&  straightens  again.    (   as straight as his   terrible posture   could get, that is.   )      ❛    so...    why  are  you  here?    ❜ 
Tumblr media
        She’s too amused to CORRECT him, a smirk pulling at her lips. While she doesn’t associate with him – she knows exactly who he is ( maybe not for the right reasons – high schoolers gossip ) – but it’s not like she views it as a bad thing. Yes – cancer sucks – but he beat the odds – & he’s probably far more interesting than some two-legged people she knows. “Yup – that’s me. MARGE SIMPSON.”

college verse. the pain didn't come back. he went on to college -- switching his degree a few times between philanthropist and scientist and then considering just dropping out to be an activist. he just knows he wants to leave a mark on the world that no one can deny.
