“ first of all , that's so rude . second of all , which part of this screams we're staying in for you ? ” hands gestured randomly over her outfit , an offended look washes over her face . “ i was feeling cute and shit and now i don't even know anymore . well , at least i'm dressed for the part , ” she blurts out , motioning towards aria . “ i distinctly remember telling you to wear something cute because we're gonna go bowling . . . i guess you didn't hear that one . ”
“ um . . . i thought you said we were going out tonight , “ she gives [ name ] a quick scan with her eyes , one of them clearly must have misinterpreted the dress code for tonight’s plans . “ when you said out i thought you meant like to dinner or to the club or something , not out of the bed and onto the couch . . . “ ( @nepofmstarters )
“ well , i'm in my bad guy era , remember ? of course i'm gonna twist your words , ” she lets out a laugh , fighting the urge to roll her eyes at his following words , “ okay , that absolutely has nothing to do with me not moving past my fangirl phase . ” their first meeting still makes her a little giddy every time she thinks about it , so maybe he's not all wrong about it either . “ i mean , how could i get over you ? nobody has ever serenaded me before and you made me one less lonely girl . . . that shit is kinda hard to forget , you know , ” she teases , only to break into a fit of giggles soon after . “ i thought a while ago you're flattered that i called you a natural , why are you so offended now ? damn it , logan , pick a fuckin' side . ” mirrors the look on his face , “ yeah sure , let's get us some ‘42 so we can feel like hot shit too —— oh wait , my bad . we're already hot shit now , aren't we ? ”
" don't twist my words ! " his exclamation is accompanied by a laugh — that's not at all what he'd MEANT , but she'd got him good . " oh , a natural , huh ? you flatter me ... thought you moved past that FANGIRL phase . good to know i've still got it . " hand rests over his heart , shooting a playful little smirk — and WINK — her way . hey , if she gets to tease him , then it's only fair that he gets to dish it right back ! it's all done lightheartedly , evidenced by the smile adorning his features . " you're ANNOYING . " he says it with love , " look , if this is your way of subversively telling me i'm being a dick , i've got the message loud and clear — but you can't say i'm not right . " he gives cami a look , " let's go get some '42 for ourselves . maybe your friend actually has a POINT . "
there's a forced smile on her face when she looks at myles —— truth to be told , camille has been on her phone half of the time so she definitely has missed it . “ yeah , yeah , i totally saw that , ” she agrees anyways , head nodding to further reassure him . “ too bad i didn't get it on camera but hey , at least we both know you did it , am i right ? ”

thrill of winning the game has completely blinded him to the fact that they're not actually friends , " — did you see that ?! 5 - 0 ?! did you ?! i made two of those goals — you saw it , right ? "

“ i don't know if you've done this before but let me tell you , this is a fucking life saver . ” miyeon doesn't strike her as somebody who would enjoy breaking things but hey , that doesn't mean she wouldn't . “ okay , before you judge me or anything , i don't do this often —— it's been a while since the last time i did this and we all have something we're upset about sometimes , so why not ? ”
“ honestly , no truer words have been spoken . i'm always a sucker for mini skirts , but like you said , we don't wanna be scandalous and not - so - accidentally flash our asses to the entire alley . . . well , not today . ” it's definitely something that camille would do on purpose . anything to get people talking about her , but with aria around she's ought to put on her best behavior at the moment —— unless aria is down for a little misbehaving , of course . “ i know right ? did anyone really not think about it at all ? that's so crazy to me , like come on , people . it's 2024 , let us have some cute bowling shoes for once and all ! but for real , that better happens before this year ends or else i'm super convinced that they all hate bowling . ” shakes head at the thought , but instantly nods at aria's question . “ sure , we can totally go grab dinner after that . i really don't mind whenever so i'll leave that one to you , babe . ” she's never been picky when it comes to these things , and it's only fair to have aria decide on their dinner place since she already suggested for them to go bowling . “ the only thing i'm worried about is the power that we hold when we're together , i bet it'd be too much for them to handle , ” a pause for dramatic effect , and camille breaks into laughter at her own words . “ other than that , i got nothing to worry about for sure . but really , who cares ? paparazzi should be fucking banned at this point but they're not , so we might as well just do whatever the fuck we want , am i right ? ” paparazzi might be brutal , but they are the least of her worries right now .
" that's exactly what i was thinking ! oh fuck it i'll just wear the boots , in a perfect world i'd wear a miniskirt but i don't really like the idea of me bending over to roll the ball and flashing my ass to the entire alley , " it's a sacrifice she has to make to maintain at least some decency . " honestly now that you mention it , i'm kinda shocked none of the big names have gotten on that ⸻ nike or something really needs to get on that , i can't believe they've made fucking pickleball shoes before bowling ones , " there's a story somewhere in there , she thinks , tucking that thought away in her mental file cabinet as she pulls her current shirt over her head and tosses it to the side of her closet . " are we just going bowling or do you wanna go grab dinner or something ? there's a few places i've been wanting to try but i'm honestly not opposed to just roaming around until we find somewhere that looks good . . . but only if you're not too worried about like , paparazzi , i've heard they've been on the fucking prowl in soho recently , " she says , pulling on her shirt and disappearing around the corner to hangers sliding against the metal rods as she flicks through her rack of skirts .
closed starter for darius @oiympian setting: some bar in nyc
it's one of those nights where camille goes pub crawling with some friends , going from one bar to another and by the time they get into the nth bar she's already starting to feel a tad bit intoxicated , which is why she almost couldn't believe her eyes when she spots him across the room . camille could recognize that tall figure anywhere , even from the back , and once she manages to catch a glimpse of his side profile , she's convinced that her gut is right —— that's definitely darius suwan , and of course he's in the middle of the bar about to fight somebody , so camille stumbles on her way towards him , swiftly places herself in between the two before she turns to face darius , hoping that her presence could distract him from the other guy . “ thank god i found you , ” she purrs , followed by a giggle . “ it's a little crowded in here , don't you think ? ” one hand tugs at his arm gently , “ let's go somewhere a little more private , yeah ? ”
see , camille would have agreed to his plan in a heartbeat , if only he hadn't mentioned her ex or implied that this had anything to do with his return to new york . that was his first mistake , to think that she would ever want to hurt darius ( she never meant to , even if her actions sometimes suggest otherwise , especially with julien involved . ) and comes julien's second mistake , to think that she has some sort of loyalty towards him —— what a fucking joke . it makes her want to laugh , but instead she settles with a coy smile as she looks up at him . “ oh , julien , ” she drawls . “ you out of all people should've known better that i have no fucking sense of loyalty . ” it's self - deprecating , but it also means ' my loyalty absolutely does not lies with you . ' hell , at this point camille is probably only loyal to herself and nobody else . “ i don't know what kind of message you're trying to send here , but i'm not doing this shit . here's what i'm proposing : just you and i , why don't we just stay the fuck away from each other ? ” for the record , this is not the first time she has said that to julien , but somehow there is a hint of seriousness in her tone this time . “ and if it's true that darius is actually back from hiding , then maybe i don't fucking need you anymore . ”
julien has this … claim … over camille . and it’s wrong . god , it’s all sorts of wrong . but he charmed her away from her ex once , didn’t he ? so why wouldn’t he think he could do it again ? “ so , i hear darius has emerged from his … comment dit - on ? ah , yes , hiding place , ” mumbles , lips ghosting her neck , barely touching , breath warm on her skin . he’s so damn confident , so very sure , as fingers tilt her chin up , up to meet his gaze . “ to that , i propose a night out . just you and i . oh , and a horde of paparazzi , of course . think of the message that’ll send , hmm ? it’ll paint such a vivid picture of where your loyalties truly lie . ” // @salvateure
closed starter for josie @delicatlueur setting: new club grand opening in nyc
“ oh come on , babe . you can't just refuse to come with me at the very last minute ! we're literally almost there , ” she tries to reason with josie , but really , she's not going to take no for an answer —— it's how she even gets josie to leave her house in the first place . “ a friend gave me two vip invites and i haven't seen my best friend in a whole ass week . can you believe that ? a whole ass week , josie . plus , when was the last time you went to a club ? ”
“ i distinctly remember mentioning it to you though , it's not my fault that you chose not to listen to me , ” she rolls her eyes playfully , couldn't help the laugh that comes out after . maybe there is a possibility that she might have left that information out when they were talking , but confidence is key , and she's never been one to admit defeat easily , even for something as silly as this . “ god , no , can you even imagine that ? i would have probably came back from the dead and get changed because there's no way i'd be caught looking like this in a club . people are never gonna let me live it down , dead or not —— i could never recover from that , ” she invites herself into the house , hands intertwined as they make their way to aria's room . “ oh , don't worry , my place is just as messy , if not worse . ” camille gives aria a reassuring nod , taking a step behind to have a better look at the options shown to her . “ i know i said we're dressing cute , but that black top would look so hot on you , especially with a longer skirt and boots . and i know the ugly bowling shoes are such a buzzkill , but we can always take pictures before or after bowling —— seriously , how hard it is to make cute bowling shoes ? is it just not possible to look cute while we bowl ? that is so fuckin' ridiculous . ”
" i distinctly remember you not mentioning a single word about bowling , " now she's definitely the one who's not dressed for the occasion , leather mini - skirt certainly a bit much to be spending her night getting drunk and rolling balls into the gutter . " just to be clear , i meant no offense by my earlier comment i just know you and i know you wouldn't be caught dead in a club with jeans on , " she laughs , her head motioning towards the inside of her house , a silent invitation to come inside . " i'll get changed and now that you're here you can help me pick something better to wear , " cold fingers are laced between camille's pulling her towards her room where they're met with the sight of various pieces of aria's clothing sprawled out between the floor and her bed . " don't mind the mess , i was having a bit of an outfit crisis . . . " hands are freed as aria crosses through her room , heading straight for her closet . " okay , this one , or this one ? " she holds out the two for cami to get a good look at , " or i could go with like a longer skirt with boots ? ugh , but then we're gonna have to wear those ugly bowling shoes so it really doesn't even matter , huh ? "
closed starter for ria @rhiannvns setting: any thrift store
usually spotted wearing designer clothes when she's out and about , most people aren't aware of the fact that camille also enjoys thrifting once in a while . browsing through the new arrivals section , she comes across a fellow patron who she notices has been eyeing a certain clothing for a while . “ you should get that one . i think it'd look really cute on you , ” she encourages . sure , nobody asked for her opinion , but she figures it won't hurt to say something anyways .
looks up from her phone when she hears the familiar voice , excitement written all over her face at the sight of jisu . “ glad i could be your knight in shining armor and save you from that boring gala , ” comes her teasing , followed by a chuckle . “ i've been good , ” it's like an automatic response , because really , what else is she supposed to say ? camille has had worse days and today feels rather mundane than anything else . “ kinda have a few days off work so i don't really know what to do , ” she laughs . it's why she has texted jisu about going out for dinner tonight , never been the type to really stay at home and do nothing . “ and i think we haven't seen each other in a while too , right ? it's really good to see you , ji . ” lips pulled into an affectionate smile . “ you look stunning , by the way . i love your dress . ”

lithe hands smooth over the front of her zimmerman dress, perhaps a little overdressed after leaving a gala at a nearby art gallery. she had been desperate to leave after two hours, and was happy to see the text from camille. jisu tucks a loose strand of hair behind her ear while the hostess leads her to the table, and a smile spreads once she sees the other blond. " hey! " jisu beams, thanking the hostess as she slips into the vacant seat. " i'm so glad to see you— i was losing my mind at that gala. " jisu sets her purse aside and settles her hands on her lap. " how have you been, cam? "
