@pathstaken / CONTINUED.
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐔𝐏 𝐀𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐊𝐘, telling arizona that lexie was waiting for him and that they were all going to be okay without him. he briefly remembers her telling him that her, callie and sofia were waiting for him too, but the pain was so much and he felt himself just slowly drift away. not quite gone, but not quite there either. he was just floating, trying to find her and be with her. she was his only thought, he had to find lexie and he had to know that she was okay, she was happy and she was safe.
𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐃𝐍'𝐓 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐀𝐒, it looked like seattle but it wasn’t the city, there wasn’t enough people for it to be the city. plus the few people he did see were people he knew were gone, like the first patient he lost was someone he came across. but none of them was who he was looking for and he wasn’t going to stop till he found her. he had to find her.
𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐊 𝐅𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃 𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐒𝐄𝐋𝐅 𝐃𝐑𝐀𝐖𝐍 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐄 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐏, he knew that lexie was prone to a sweet tooth and she always liked her coffee. he hoped she was in here, if she wasn’t, he would keep walking till he found her. yet the moment he stepped into the coffee shop, glancing around to see if anyone was in there and he allowed the door to shut behind him when he spotted her.
𝐀 𝐒𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝐒𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐒 𝐎𝐍 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐋𝐈𝐏𝐒, his heart racing in his chest as he looks at her. she’s beautiful, she always was and he felt whole again as he looked at her. he was here, right here with her and there was no where else he wanted to be. he had been right, she was waiting for him and they would be together, “ i’m here, ” he echoed, taking a few steps towards her, blue eyes shining with tears as he looks at her, “ i was looking for you. i knew you’d find you eventually, ”

marley rose / @pathstaken: ❛ i’ve kept my head down since birth. ❜
❛ I kind of figured. ❜ there’s no judgment to her words; they’re simply a statement of fact. jordan can’t say that she understands per se — for as long as she can remember she’s put herself out there, finding that the reward always outweighs the risk in most situations, and even when it doesn’t, she’s hard-pressed to change her methods. even when she entered mckinley high two years ago with the intention of keeping a low profile and flying below the radar for the sake of her own sanity, it hadn’t lasted long, and thank god it didn’t. a soft smile curves onto her lips as she takes up space in the empty seat next to marley at the piano, taking it upon herself to tilt her head so she invades her fellow glee clubber’s field of view.
❛ and maybe that worked out for you for the last fifteen years — but are you happy in that box? ❜ it’s a genuine question as her fingers tinker softly, idly at the keys, a half-baked ghost of a melody strung together that will likely never be heard again. she manages to hide back a teasing grin, moving to gently bump shoulder against shoulder. ❛ honestly, I think it’s a little selfish, because the marley I’ve seen so far is a wonderful person with a beautiful gift to share, and I’m too stubborn to let her keep hiding away from everyone. ❜

❝ Is that right? ❞
He looks at her with a mixture of amazement and wonder. Since the moment she sat down beside him that first day of classes, Emmett has been wandering near the professor’s classrooms she mentioned in the hopes of running into her again. Something about her not knowing who he is allows the tension in his shoulders to melt away and part of him feels, in a way, free.
❝ Tell me more about these extreme measures. ❞

@pathstaken sent : ✋ - a starter where my muse traces your muse’s scars. ( steve & nancy )
◤✦ 𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗘 & 𝗨𝗡𝗨𝗦𝗨𝗔𝗟 ✦◢ how long had it been since they’d had a chance to breathe ? had it really only been a week since she’d gotten tangled up with steve harrington and the whole world went to shit ? it felt like years had passed ... felt like she’d aged a hundred decades while her body was stuck at a standstill . a week ago ... well , a week ago barb was still alive . a week ago , the only thing she had to worry about was her parents finding out that she was having sex . and even that wasn’t much of a worry , was it ? but now ... now she had to worry about things that lurked in the shadows , about keeping government secrets , about them changing their mind and deciding to get rid of any witnesses . why couldn’t she go back to being a normal teenager ?
she had been agonizing over those thoughts while she stared at a stack of blank notebook paper on her desk . she should have been writing a paper but she couldn’t bring herself to focus . she was so lost in her own thoughts that she didn’t even hear her window open , didn’t know anyone was there until steve was whispering her name . a slight jump and shoulders tightened as she turned in her chair to look at him . ❝ shit , steve ! ❞ a frustrated huff of breath even as she stood to move towards him and slip her arms around his middle to bury her face in his chest for a long moment , voice muffled against the fabric of his shirt . ❝ how’d you know i needed you ? ❞
a pause ... quiet as she looked up at him , eyes tracing his face to land on a small scar forming by his eyebrow . that had been her fault , hadn’t it ? she hadn’t even stopped long enough to apologize , to explain what had happened with jonathan . she should have told him , should have explained before everything got so messed up . she pulled one arm from around him , hand lifting so that fingers could trace the marred skin . ❝ i didn’t realize he’d hit you so hard . i thought tommy would’ve pulled him off of you . ❞ a frown . ❝ i’m sorry , y’know ? ❞

@pathstaken: ‘ why do you hate me? ’ ( from jon :)))))) )
“You mistake my feelings for hate, my king,” Jorah spoke from where he stood in the hall, hands folded in front of him. It was just them. The king having since dismissed everyone else so that it could be them alone to discuss their thoughts. His cold blue eyes watched the young king where he sat, letting the words he’d spoken settle between them momentarily. He drew in a breath and spoke again, “I hold concern towards this split of power and what it could mean for the future of the Seven Realms.”
I lack trust in you is what he wished to say, but he knew it would be ill-advised to speak such words while in the northern king’s land. It would also be ill-advised to admit them to his queen as she had much trust in the King. So he would keep that to himself. Would keep his concerns on whether they should really trust a duel ruling. He could touch on it some, but he wouldn’t get into it fully. It wasn’t his place to speak on it. He was Lord Commander of the Queensguard... not her Hand or even a whisper in her ear.
“But it isn’t my place to speak on it,” he gave a small bow of his head, “I apologize if I have offended you.”

one foot rest on top of the pedal , the other is tapping its heel lightly against the kickstand , not hard enough to push it up yet . cooper’s now sitting on top the bike handle bars , her hands twisting the rubber grips . “ okay , so i can sorta see over your shoulder , but you’re gonna have to do the directing . ” addy laughs , sporting a smile she’s only had for the last few months . “ you ready , cooper ? ” / @pathstaken

@pathstaken ; steve : ‘ huh - uh . . . that was . . . that was rough, ’ / meme ; accepting.
" 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐈𝐒 𝐏𝐔𝐓𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐈𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐋𝐘 . . . are you sure you’re okay? i wouldn’t blame you if you were fucked up about this, ” robin asked, making sure to keep her distance from him but still sitting across from him, hoping that she was enough to keep him calm and stop him from doing something really stupid. she hadn’t quite processed how she really felt about what had just happened. it had been a lot to think about since the savior ambush, since the deaths of abraham and glenn, that they hadn’t been prepared for what would happen when the saviors came to collect. or that negan was the big bad leader that they had heard so much about. the person who had been like a father to steve, the man who had made sure they got out of their hometown alive and safe, the husband to lucille, the man they had longed believe to be dead. turns out he wasn’t dead, he was very much alive and he was determined to make their lives a living hell. it would be no surprise to her if steve was a mess, she just didn’t want him to do anything stupid and get himself killed. she didn’t even know if he knew about lucille being taken by negan. robin just wanted to make sure that he was okay before she went to check on carol and tilly, “ talk to me, steve. i need you to use those words and tell me how you feel ‘cause i’m scared you’re gonna do some dumb shit if i leave you alone, ”

steve harrington / @pathstaken: ❛ let’s party like we’re fucking pornstars! ❜
the first observation jordan makes when she sets foot into the carmichael residence is that the entire town has flocked to its open doors to guzzle down every last drop of liquor that roane county had to offer. hyperbole? perhaps — but there’s some truth to it as she bumps shoulders with people she vaguely recognizes from homeroom or world history or that one basketball game she went to three months ago when that was the fun thing to do on a friday night. for a moment she feels a little out of place, a microscopic fish in a small pond; and still she holds her head high as she’s inadvertently corralled toward the kitchen where it seems to be a little more calm.
she’s browsing her options ( beer, beer, more beer, the keg, and the communal punch bowl that is undoubtedly full of six different varieties of liquor that promised a quick blackout and a raging hangover the next morning ) when one of the drunken masses comes in for a refill, announcing his presence with a bold proclamation if she’s ever heard one. attention is grabbed immediately and the laugh that slips out of her is ( mostly ) pleasant as she shoots her fellow party-goer a glance, eyebrow arching, once-over quick. yeah, he’s toasted. ❛ looks like you’re already halfway there, champ. ❜ tease is gentle as she turns back to her options, resigned sigh swallowed in her throat as she takes a step toward the keg. ah, what the hell. ❛ what’s your secret? ❜

𝐋𝐄𝐓 𝐌𝐄 𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐍 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐀 𝐂𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐁𝐎𝐃𝐘.
NEPTUNE
you've been hurt, deeply. you're scared to make connections again after all that's happened, and you have a hard time believing people genuinely care about you. you tend to be a LONER, struggling to fit in with acquaintances, and you probably feel like you're socially awkward. you're probably involved with various forms of art, music, or dance. you have detailed dreams and may be in touch with your spiritual side; the EARTH is your HOME and you feel most at peace in nature. your friend groups tend to be small, you don't interact with many people. though you've been hurt, you know that you still believe in the KINDNESS OF HUMANITY. in the past or present, you feel like you HAVEN’T BEEN LOVED the way you should be. despite all this, you are one hell of a light. the things you make are truly beautiful, and you are trying your best. you should be proud. allow yourself to be adored the way you deserve. i love you.
