a sudden sense of yearning for what should’ve been just another kid
░ ┊ @scarfwere 。• ◞
a good friend. When did he last have one? Matt? He guessed, if he ever counted as one. A small tentative smile. A faint tilt of his head and he catches wind of the good breeze before it finds him. Him still unsure even when it comes.
Eventually, it breaks out into a grin. A small one. Not large enough that it takes all over his face but good enough to make a dent. He almost turns around to double check ; make sure his Father wasn’t around to ruin it. But a surreptitious glance over his shoulder confirms what he felt in the moment : relief.
“ so ── we’re still friends? “
people like him, his mother and he, don’t have friends. by definition, a ‘ friend ’ is one of her connections forging high-quality documents for them to pass through airports or one of those old ones who are now chasing them to the ends of the earth. stefan hears it coined a lot around as he gets by and wonders how easily the term draws such warm expression on isaac’s face. as if stefan wouldn’t be gone after a few months’ time and wouldn’t be forgotten ... just like the rest of his other selves.
‟ Can’t really stop you from doing whatever you want. ❜ the raven-haired boy shrugs, as indifference lace with a piss poor excuse that he can fall back onto, a reason why he allowed whatever this is to happen. at the end of the day, stefan will still be put down and with him, are memories of a mediocre, normal boy’s life. as much as stefan can already feel the ire of his mother once she finds out and when she does, the pounding within his chest covered by nonchalance overlapped the threat of her wrath and even if he doesn’t understand why isaac seemed cautious despite his insistence on keeping a connection with stefan, he doesn’t bother poking into it.
‟ Usually, everyone doesn’t see the point of entertaining new kids for far too long; they come and go and fade away within a week. What’s up with you ? You seem hell-bent into ... whatever you’re up to. ❜ if stefan also sports NATHANIEL’s similar bluntness and lack of effort to understand social cues, he also doesn’t bother thinking much about it.
‟ Not if you check my ID. ❜ it’s different when he’s done it a million times with his mother behind his back , checking potential rats following them. it certainly feels different now without her , but only her connections that assured his documents are of high quality forgery. neil has no choice but to trust them. ‟ I’m already of legal age. Eighteen. I just need to pass through. ❜

All For The Game- THE FOXHOLE COURT
“Hope was a dangerous, disquieting thing, but he thought perhaps he liked it.”
so my editable reblogs finally broke. after doing some 2am digging, coming up with a redundant solution, making an ENTIRE TUTORIAL for said redundant solution, and realizing it’s useless, i’ve got the answer to the problem for everyone. i’ve joined the xkit support discord server, and here is what’s been said about the issue so far:
TLDR; EDITABLE REBLOGS WON’T WORK ON ORIGINAL POSTS, BUT IT’LL WORK ON REBLOGS WITH REPLIES. meaning if jane posts a starter and june replies to it without using editable reblogs, it’ll create this trail item. so from then on out, you can feel free to use xkit’s extension to your heart’s content.
so if you’re getting this issue, the solution is simple: DON’T USE XKIT ON THE FIRST REPLY. yes, it’ll be ugly, but everything will be back to normal from there :)
