Starter For @notbit From Violet !
starter for @notbit from violet !

a disgruntled sigh escaped her as she stared out at the relatively empty forest below. “ lookout sucks ass, ” she decided, pale hues glancing over at clem who’d insisted on joining her up here for whatever reason; violet didn’t know. it wasn’t unwelcome, however. violet enjoyed clem’s company, even if she wouldn’t admit to it too willingly. “ but someone’s gotta do it, i guess. ”
she’d taken over for ruby about an hour or so ago, and clem had decided to join her up here rather than call it for the night like everyone else. her lips twitched slightly at the amusing thought that aj hadn’t decided to join the two of them. the kid never really seemed to want to leave clem’s side. either clem had put her foot down on him not joining or he’d been more tired than violet thought. either way…
“ you don’t have to keep me company, y’know, ” violet said after a moment, taking a second to study clem’s features before looking back out at the forest, crossing her arms and adding, “ you should go get some sleep if you’re tired. ”

starter for @hawkinsjournalist from mike !

nancy had noticed him acting weird—of course she did; she always did. and mike hadn’t wanted to talk at first, just sat in silence with her while the thoughts swirled around his head. she seemed to be waiting on him to say something.
he doubted that she’d actually wait on him for too long. eventually, after enough poking and prodding, she’d take the hint and leave. but here she was, still sitting on the couch beside him in the basement, and after five minutes passed of pure silence between them, mike got the impression that she really didn't plan on going anywhere. it made him a little antsy.
“ el broke up with me, ” he said, finally, voice so low it was nearly a whisper. he’d never voiced it out loud, but now that he had, it almost felt like a RELIEF; a weight being lifted off of his shoulders. “ and— i-i dunno, it’s just… i thought it would feel…worse somehow, y’know ? but… i just— i almost feel… relieved that she finally did it. does that make sense ? or is it, like, i dunno—weird or something…? ” it sure felt kind of weird.
alright, i'll be writing today!
i'll be working on the starters i owe first!
starter for @lastedpromise ( javi ) from kate !

they’ve both been through more than either of them really deserved, with the scars to prove it. kate wouldn’t mind her own if it didn’t constantly remind her of the death of mariana and her inability to do anything other than nearly get herself killed. and that thought led to other thoughts—running back into david, being scared for her life, having to save richmond from impending doom—but they’d made a home here and the scars were just something she had to live with.
it wasn’t all bad, anyway, she supposed. things could’ve been a lot worse than they were, and she knew that she should be grateful for what she did have—her stepson and javi and a place where they could sleep without the fear of being snuck up on by muertos.
“ you know my eyes are up here, right ? ” kate said as she pulled her shirt down over her torso. she knew where javi had really been looking—the annoying scar on her abdomen—but she couldn’t resist teasing him. the faint smile that had pulled at her lips started to fall away as she added, “ the more you stare at it isn’t gonna make it go away… trust me, i’ve tried. ”
