“Now. In the '60s, there were only two other cars made in America that had positraction and independent rear suspension and enough power to make these marks. One was the Corvette, which could never be confused with the Buick Skylark. The other had the same body length, height, width, weight, wheel base, and wheel track as the '64 Skylark, and that was the 1963 Pontiac Tempest.” –– Marisa Tomei as Mona Lisa Vito in My Cousin Vinny.

WANTED CONNECTIONS

;; tramps like us, baby we were born to run !! | travel buddies !

emery very much would like to see the world - travel. he doesn’t want to be stuck in elias or hallow falls for the rest of his life, not when there is So Much to see and do out there!! maybe your muse wants the same & they share their dreams with each other. maybe they plan to see the world together someday or maybe your muse & emery have already taken off together before on adventures!! 

;; family don’t end in blood. | close friends !

like ezrael, i think emery has a lot of Friends but very few close friends. these are the people he shares his dreams & fears & everything in between with. sleepovers and phone calls and dumb text messages. inside jokes. there are polaroids of them together pinned to a cork board in em’s room. 

;; a ship like that’ll be with ya til the day ya die. | tinker buddies !

emery loves tinkering with shit and fixing what’s broke. if your muse likes tinkering too maybe they can tinker together or bounce ideas off of each other. maybe your muse comes to emery to fix their things - anything from a broken watch to car troubles.

;; there are no happy endings because nothing ever ends. | exes !

he hasn’t dated Much but he has had a partner or two in the past. maybe the relationship ended amicably and they’re still friends ! maybe it didn’t for whatever reason and they very much Aren’t ! 

;; there’s gotta be some butterflies somewhere | a crush??

romance is never really at the forefront of emery’s mind but sometimes you sort of... trip and fall head-first into feelings you didn’t realize you had in the first place. that’s what happened here. can be mutual or unrequited - either way would be fun !! since emery is demi, this would have to be a muse that he’s already close/friends with !! 

&& probably others but that’s all i can think of for now !! :3 if you have other connections/plot ideas feel free to yeet them at me i am All For Them !!
