Do You Think They Have Fancy Beer In Vegas? Like Those Drinks With Lollies And Slices Of Cake On Them?

From the desk of Toni Storm ⋆♫˚.⋆⭒.˚⋆ April 22nd

The plastic ring around her finger became somewhat of a comfort object overnight. Toni sat on the edge of her once-shared bed, gently turning the plastic around her digit and pressing a thumb into the sticky parts where it was once a lolly.

Marriage. What a strong commitment to make to someone she broke away from. It wasn’t a decision that came lightly when she was asked the first time around. Toni began traveling globally, Joseph was in Japan, the time zones and the distance was hard. She had always assumed it was a mutual break between them. Yet, once they had both signed to become All Elite, the distance closed between them and a feeling inside her chest told her she was missing something.

That something still stayed at home and took care of Toni, running hot baths and holding the ice on her back when she needed it. It was the same something that would sit across the dining room table, making jokes and cleaning up after she had cooked. Something that had made time to watch movies and cheer her on from home when he had been injured and in pain. Maybe Toni was a fool for thinking there was nothing between them anymore. Maybe ‘fool’ was putting it too nicely.

Fuck.

That was the first word that came to mind.

Shit.

The second word she could think of.

Toni stood up, pacing around the room in an attempt to get her mind thinking straight. Maybe Toni wanted to have a wedding.

She chewed on the plastic that marked their vows to one another. A wedding surrounded by friends and family.

The plastic turned white, threatening to break. And maybe, just maybe, Toni would rather have done it sober.

The ring cracked between her teeth. Dammit.

Now you have to go hide out in your hotel room before the press makes articles about a shield reunion

Any of you ever play that game in the mall where you attempt to walk into a store, touch the wall and back without a worker asking if you need something?

That’s how landing in Vegas feels, except the challenge is walking out of the airport without someone askin’ for a picture.

what color doesn't feel like you at all?

Pink. I can never see myself wearing or owning anything pink. It’s not that I don’t like it, it just isn’t a color for me.

Is it one of those really strong ones? I need it

From Hollywood to Japan. Jet lag is going to hit like a bitch. Someone load me up with caffeine before I go out there.

You know me too well 😪 Who wouldn’t want to surround themselves with pretty people in Vegas, though?

What are everyone’s Mania plans? I was thinking of getting a hotel and giving a lot of money to showgirls and boys wearing nothing but feathers 🦚
