@freakfink said, 7. favorite way to waste time and feelings surrounding wasting time / excessively detailed headcanons — accepting.
ashley most commonly wastes time by just exercising. he doesn’t really do it to stay in shape, or stay healthy, that’s not his drive, he does it because it kills time, it wears him out, he can turn up the television and just let one hour merge into the next. sometimes, he’ll hit the gym, but other times, he’ll stay within the walls of his apartment. and ashley doesn’t really feel like he’s wasting time — he feels like he has too much of it, and he’s got to kill it somehow. one of the worst parts of his insomnia is the time it gives him, those slow hours of night. and work can only use up so much of his time — he’ll take on extra work ( i.e, the paperwork no one else wants to fill out, the boxes of files no one else wants to sort through ) but it never lasts him long enough. he’s still got too many hours to himself at the end of the day.

continued from x.
“Excuse me?” a brow rose, acting as if she was truly offended, but really, she wasn’t. The Rocky Mountains seemed to have potential.. beautiful sights and even more beautiful Bigfoot sightings. The Rockies were a long shot but if it churned out content and curiosity, she was not against a trip for a few days. “And, YES! I am fucking high,” a bit louder than the thud of the rain, she hoped that Ferris was able to, at least, lip read a bit despite how heavy it started to become and their vision a bit disoriented from it.
“This is our brand! It’s always Bigfoot until it’s not... and, that was not a bear’s roar. Trust me on this.” If anything, Lottie was quite knowledge on the sounds of animals, for the most part. That was a prized talent that she prided herself on, but it’s wrong way too often. It was the thought that counts, right? “Oh, gross! —You do know that I’d protect you, yeah? I have a flare gun. Besides, this isn’t Texas. That’s where the weirdos are. You know, other than me,” she winked. “Now, come on!”

@freakfink : “ guys! guys. i think there’s someone in the woods. ”
wide eyes whip the flash light to the surrounding woods. the branches create shadows that reach out and try to grab her. “ you can’t just say stuff like that, especially because we are looking for a witch’s hand. ” there is a shiver that crawls up her spine as she illuminated the many holes the nurse had dug. all of them seemed to be the approximate size for a human and they were clustered together. cindy took a moment to try and steady her breathing. all of this was crazy. there had to be a reason why nurse lane had said those things about tommy. “ there’s no one there. ”

STARTER CALL / @freakfink.
quickly ted slams the door, turning, only to look around, as if someone else was in the quiet cabin with them. ‘okay, you’re tellin’ me... hang on, i need to catch my breath,’ palms lay flat against his knees, the boy hunched over to take several deep breaths. incredulous eyes move back to ferris after a long moment of wheezing. ‘you believe me. it. all of it!’ ecstatic laugh, one hand moves through thick curls. ‘holy shit. i mean... holy fuck! i’ve never meant anyone else who... wow!’

❝ Oh shit, that’s awesome. ❞
He doesn’t mean to be looking over her shoulder but whatever she’s drawing caught his eye and now he can’t help but stare. He shifts the strap of his bag up higher on his shoulder as he moves in front of her. ❝ That for a project or just for fun? ❞

If it wasn’t bad enough that they were here in the first place, Cyrus had planned this little adventure for the middle of the night on one of the creepiest nights of the year. It didn’t help that he could barely see ten feet in front of him, and the fog that creeped in over the baseball field was only growing thicker. He can feel his heart racing in his chest, hands clammy. He’s trying to wipe the sweat off on his pants but it isn’t helping. You would think he was an expert by now, they had captured other ghosts before them. The first born prince, the torso, the bound woman and the withered lover. Each and every one of them had their unique story, each one of them had pain and anger that was clear to Dennis when they made contact with him. He hated it, he hated them, and he hated Cyrus for making him do this. The only person he didn’t hate was the woman standing beside him.
He turns his head, dropping the special glasses over his eyes in preparation for the Torn Prince; one of the more violent ghosts they would have to capture. “ How ya feelin? Cause I feel like shit. .....I really don’t wanna be here when this guy comes in swingin.” He’s already freaking out and hoping she’ll talk him out of being here. Hoping she’ll tell him they don’t NEED the money Cyrus was paying, hoping they could get out with their lives before he’s forced to meet his fate at the hands of the very things he was paid to capture and treat like animals. “ This ones bad Fink, this ones REAL BAD I can feel it. He’s not gonna play nice. People are gonna die tonight.” @freakfink

The bedroom adjacent to the patio that Fred has made her own is unoccupied on the weekend and it’s that much more COMFORTABLE than camping in the living room. But telling Ferris about it takes a backseat, at least for now; brows attempt to not show too much concern ―― doesn’t want her to think she’s a terrible pessimist. She isn’t. But she’s never quite liked being affectionate, makes her heart ACHE in that primordial realisation that every ounce of love costs her twice as much pain. And still shoulder nudges Ferris’. “ You do know you can talk to me about everything, right? ” It’s attempted reassurance, warmth reflected in charcoal eyes. “ But hey, since you’re already here ―― I could use a little help with going through old newspaper articles. Can’t quite tell you what I’m looking for, a patter maybe. A familiar face. ”
@gazedlong, surprise starter!!

“ I know, ” he said, something akin to a smirk crosses his face as he rolls his eyes. his tone is light however, always indulgent with a fair bit of nihilism. “ there is no gravity, ” << life just . . . sucks. >>

@freakfink wrote on the blackboard,
✏ ❛ well, i did mean to scare you, ‘ sort of ’ scare you, but not ‘ for real ’ scare you. ❜
given a different day, a different week he probably wouldn’t have been so jumpy. a shaky smile is exchanged with a nod of his head. he’s fine, really -- just, hasn’t been getting enough SLEEP lately. the nightmares are back, and they’re bad this time around. THE SHAPE advances in the dark, and he dreads the sun setting later. “ you finally managed to really get me. ” he chooses to be more amused with it even if that fear still lingers beneath the skin. << good job. >>

@freakfink asked : “ being strong doesn’t mean never asking for help or admitting you’re in pain. ”
◤✦ 𝐋 𝐔 𝐂 𝐊 𝐘 𝐒 𝐇 𝐎 𝐓 ✦◢ for a moment , she pretends to not hear the other as she bandages her palm and makes a mental note to never catch a blade with bare hands again . fucking ouch . she doesn’t want to acknowledge the other’s words . she knows she’s gone off the deep end ... knows that she’s put herself in a place where she can’t bring herself to care about her own wellbeing . but that’s exactly where she wants to be .
shame she couldn’t force anyone else into that tiny little box .
<< i’m perfectly capable of asking for help , thank you very much . >> she looks up from the wound , blue eyes settling on the concerned features of her friend . friend ... felicia has to remind herself what that word means once in a while . she has a tendency to forget that it means someone cares about her . their mistake really . anyone close enough to her to care must be pretty fucking good at making horrible life choices . << i just didn’t need any . >>
she knows it was about more than the physical wounds . but she wasn’t ready to acknowledge that . fake a smile . pretend that the world is eating out of the palm of her hand . pretend that she’s not spiraling .

@vicedamaged / “Talk about- Max!” uwu
@freakfink / Talk about + max
this is going to be way too long and sappy. you know the drill. i’m not going to skirt around this because red and max have been a thing for like almost three months and they live rent free in my head: they’re soulmates. in every universe. they’re just meant to be.
red met max by chance and in a setting that wasn’t even that special or particular in any way. it was actually quite... normal, which is something red is not used to experience anymore. that’s what draws her to him in the beginning, how common and basic max is. we joke around this a lot but i think if max any way different than how he is by the time they met, red wouldn’t have taken any interest in him and he would have been just some other guy to sleep with one time and then forget.
it’s all about the similarities and differences between them and how they seem to complement each other and make them better people. max makes red interested in living again when until now her only goal was to find a cure to end her immortality / dive deep into her job as a way to get some sort of fulfillment, direction... make some sense out of her existence. he comes with troubles and trauma on his shoulders but so does she, and i guess this is why they manage to understand each other so clearly.
i am firmly convinced that red needed to be in the headspace she is after tog, with all the hurt and the betrayal and the tiredness, to appreciate what the universe is offering to her. red and max are both lonely and broken and somehow they choose each other and put each other on the good path towards healing, which i think is extraordinary and so rare these days! they are by no means perfect or fairy tale like --- red is bound to see max die eventually, and same thing will happen with their kids unfortunately. but it’s worth it.
different thing goes for the verse where they’re both immortals. it takes time for them to get there but it’s no less powerful or healing. they’ve got less because the fear of losing people along the way is stronger, but at least they’ve got each other.

@freakfink sent: ❝ i’m a master of cuddling, too - got a black belt, multiple disciplines. ❞ ( for her main crush dennis lol )
𝐂𝐔𝐃𝐃𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐇𝐀𝐃 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐒𝐔𝐂𝐇 𝐀 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐈𝐆𝐍 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐅𝐘𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐏𝐓 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐈𝐒. A simple touch, it doesn’t even have to be skin to skin contact and he’s seizing on the floor, writhing with the memories and pain of that individuals past. Dennis had never allowed himself to get close enough to anyone to get to this point; a point where he’s seen and felt it all, a point where when she touches him, especially with affection; he doesn’t have to fear it. There’s amusement in the way he laughs, a large goofy grin just for her. “ Oh, I dunno ….I’ve had some training from the BEST and I’m a hundred percent positive I could out cuddle you.”

@freakfink —— i’m not gonna let you die today.
𝐈𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐒𝐋𝐀𝐘𝐄𝐑 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃’𝐕𝐄 𝐒𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐀𝐘 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐉𝐀𝐖 𝐒𝐄𝐓, 𝐒𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐄𝐘𝐄𝐒 𝐕𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐘 𝐃𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐄𝐍, 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 𝐖𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃’𝐕𝐄 𝐇𝐔𝐍𝐆 𝐔𝐏, 𝐀𝐁𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐈𝐑 𝐂𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐀𝐃𝐄, 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐏𝐑𝐀𝐘𝐄𝐃. when christian hadn’t answered his phone for the fifth time in a row, ashley knew something was going on. and when he pulled into an empty driveway, received no answer at the door, something twisted in his gut. like a knife. like the hot metal of a bullet, embedded. dread washed over him, white-hot, fucking molten. but hearing christian’s name over the phone, roll off the slayer’s tongue, so casually, that was something else entirely. the sink of the blade and the twist, the upward pull, he felt gutted. ( stake's already tucked away, and while he doesn’t plan on using it, he’s never left without it on his hip. it was a reminder of who he was. what he was doing. who he was doing this for. ) he checks the magazine of his sidearm and slides it back into dark holster. the man on the phone had dug his own grave. ash was only coming to collect.
a man who should’ve called him kin was now threatening the life of his partner. ash knew two things. one —— no one was going to stop him from slamming that door shut behind him and taking off like a bat out of hell. two —— he wasn’t going to stop until the slayer was dead. the slayer wanted to talk. said he couldn’t get graves’ attention before. said he was confident he sure as hell had it now. ( ‘ ain’t gonna die ’ he says, as he shrugs dark jacket upon tense shoulders. before blaring ringtone, he’d been pacing the room, foot tapping incessantly when he’d finally taken a seat, finally talked to ferris, let it all out. )
and ashley appreciates the sentiment, he appreciates her, but the fire’s already been lit. they all knew the consequences of having a job like this. there wasn’t a place he went where he couldn’t feel icy breath on his neck, feel eyes on his body like crosshairs. ( always out of the grave and back in the saddle, they’ve nearly died for each other more times than they could count, always said, if we survive this, it’ll be one hell of a story ... ) dying under glaring sun. dying in the other’s place. cut to the day he opened a vein for christian, the first time in a long time he’d let a tear stream down his cheek so openly, first time he’d smiled while vision blurred, first time he’d ever rested his forehead against christian’s, let the relief wash over him in waves, let the fires die down, drown out. ferris would understand, wouldn’t she?
« he’s out there, so I’m gonna walk out that door, and I’m gonna bring him back. » finally does he meet her eyes. is it telling? can she see the cracks in the glass holding everything back? his life before christian was hard liquor out the bottle and unto the tongue, cold beds and cold meals and cold stares. christian had brought some warmth, somehow. lit a fire, was the jacket on ashley’s shoulders in the coldest times. to go back to that life, that long line of fine —— he couldn’t imagine it. imagine that. she’d understand, wouldn't she? « he’d do that much for me. »
