For the sake of being more organized and giving myself the chance to balance more muses, I’ve moved Joe over to a multi-muse for a fresh start. I get that multis aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but for anyone I still have ongoing threads with, they will be continued there and I will be following everyone on the new blog!

Dream | Imagine Dragons
And all these sorrows I have seen They lead me to believe That everything’s a mess
I only see you on my screen and in my dreams
his vexation is her weapon , the growing grin on his face used to her advantage . knuckles are met with another feather - soft peck , a breathy chuckle leaving her lips . ( she fights her growing temper , fights the burning fire within her . ) ivories make their appearance , ruby lips peeled back into FORCED SMILE . ❝ of course . but , you’ll have done something much better when you tell me what i want . where is it , joe ? did you eat it ? ❞ the grip on his hand tightens , but she shows no anger ————— smile remains intact & voice keeps saccharine sweet tones . ❝ pretty sure those people mean a CERTAIN DEATH or something similar . anyways , you were the only person who knew about my cake . ❞
Could he take her? That would have been the foremost thought running through his mind had the present threat been more...life-threatening. He was accustomed to conflict with FAR higher stakes, and yet it was the petite redhead that had his stomach in knots --- though it was entirely possible it may also have been the result of inhaling an entire cake a matter of hours prior. While Joe liked to believe he could withstand an official interrogation and keep his wits about him if the situation arose, he could only evade NANCY DREW for so long. He would have to pray the punishment for cake theft was less severe than he expected. ❝ I --- told you, I don’t know where it went. Maybe it’s one of those things where you put your car keys in the fridge; except this time you left the cake in the car? ❞ It was another gigantic leap, but all he really needed was twenty minutes or so to go buy a replacement cake and all would be well. She would have to let go of his hand first, though. That was bound to leave a { temporary } mark. ❝ Okay...I might have had A PIECE, but you can’t just blame me. How do you know you don’t sleepwalk --- and eat --- in the middle of the night? ❞
please don’t ever leave

BECAUSE I HAVEN’T BOMBARDED U GUYS ENOUGH —– The ND/Hardy Boys fandom is currently s o much smaller than it should be, so the following is an unwarranted list of wanted characters from book and game canon( though tbh there’s so many more ) that u guys should definitely consider 8))
❝ For one, most of your time spent awake is either with me or doing errands for me. ❞ Brows raise, as if to challenge him to tell her she’s wrong. ( Unless he doesn’t sleep at all, or has an incredibly understanding girlfriend, but what are the chances? ) The hotel business isn’t exactly a simple nine-to-five job and Petra can be very… demanding, to say the least. None of her other assistants made it past two months, and for Joe to have stayed with her for this long – there must be a reason, and she’s banking on whatever that is to get him to agree to this proposal. ❝ And as for your incentive – ❞ Her eyes are threatening, and a daunting smile pulls on her lips as she leans forward, her gaze fixed on him. ❝ If you don’t do this, I can promise you that the last thing I do before they send me back to Prague is to do whatever it takes to ruin your life. ❞
Joe hesitated, careful not to give her the satisfaction of being right when, frankly, he didn’t see how it was her business. He wouldn’t dignify the assumption with anything more than a firm gaze as he waited for her to reach the POINT. Sure, she needed him, but he was already working a full-time job. The most pleasant hours of his day were the ones he spent relaxing at home --- away from her. There was very little that could convince him to give up that smallest luxury. ❝ What? ❞ His brows shot up in response to the threat and he nearly laughed in spite of the smallest bit of fear it struck within him. Clearly, she must have been more accustomed to negotiating with criminals than personal assistants. ❝ NO WAY. You really d o n ‘ t know me at all, do you? You really think some plan to gossip about me on social media or give me a nasty reference is going to get me to marry you? ❞ Admittedly, the latter would have been devastating after the miserable time and effort he had put into his job, but it had to have been preferable to wedding the devil herself. ❝ You’re going to need something more persuasive than that. I already know how terrifying you can be without putting a ring on it. Is there anything that would actually benefit me by deciding to help you? ❞
