padme was a reasonable human being , she had to rule a whole planet by the time most people her age would be graduating or fighting over some dumb boy on earth . she had come to know when to fight & when to allow the situation to dissolve on its own . in this moment , she had given the latter option a chance . she had waited patiently for anakin to have a conversation with her , tell her what exactly she did that managed to have her husband give her a cold shoulder . they went from barely able to tear their hands off each other to anakin making beds on the couch as if it was torturous to be near his wife . ‘‘ pardon me ?’’ she asked , genuinely confused as to how she was hard to be understood . she had told him on the very first day that she understood his reasoning behind giving into the dark side & that she went peacefully with the thought of all the good in her husband being the last thing she could visualize in her mind . ‘‘ i have never left your side , anakin skywalker . how dare you question my loyalty to you . ’’ she said , eyebrows furrowing to show her confusion & anger towards the other that was across from her . ‘‘ should i allow you a few moments to remember who you have married ? because i am certain you are not speaking of me because i have done nothing but love you unconditionally . ’’
the man sits in silence , his gaze returning straight ahead as he allowed padme's words to sink in . but , he remembered this differently -- had been haunted by the memories of it that always seemed to intertwine themselves in his dreams . " you LEFT me . " he states , his voice already beginning to smolder with frustration . with this statement , he had glanced upwards again , eyes of ice focused on her . " i remember it all , how can you speak to me as if i am lying to you? " his hands had begun to shake , the emotion in his tone beginning to overwhelm anakin . " you looked me in the eye , padme . you told me that you did not want me , that i was to have nothing to do with our child . i remember it all , it is not something that a man forgets . " his voice , having always been controlled and professional now vibrated , breaking completely as tears began to slid across the man's cheekbones . " now to be here , why must it be like this? i must see you every day , i must speak with you -- knowing that you have no desire to be around me . no desire to be with me . you may no longer love me as you did , but i will never stop loving you . " his face was buried beneath his hands , the only thing now visible was the curls resting upon his head and the golden shine of a wedding band still worn on his left hand .
WHENEVER HERMIONE ENTERED ANY situation, she always thought of every possible reason it could go wrong. the situation ( or whatever one wanted to call it ) she had gotten herself into with draco malfoy was certainly no exception. in fact, she’d spent nearly half the night after the party dreaming up all the ways he might hurt her the next day, if only to protect her already fragile heart. but she hadn’t expected this, which seems to only make the reality of it sting worse. “ the tri - wizard tournament ? just how delusional have you become, malfoy ? you didn’t die in the tournament, you weren’t even a participant ! or is that just another lie you’ve concocted to fuel your ego here ? ” her rage is seething, palms smacking against the table as she glares at him. “ i came over to get my book, and to talk to you —- ” she reminds him, rather harshly, gritting her teeth. “ but i can see any chance of having civil discourse with you is futile. look, if you wanted to pretend that the other night didn’t happen, you could have just said so ! ” now she’s just left looking like a fool, but she assumes that is mostly intentional on his part.
draco had leaned back into the chair , his blue eyes wide as he watched her in complete and utter confusion . was he -- did he -- -- did he find this attractive? this is soon drowned out almost entirely , unable to find the powerful inner voice that always seemed to guide him . now , he was left practically speechless . " but i -- i remember it . " his attempt at defense is stopped-short , he was no longer using his anger as a priority to try and prove a point . in fact , the malfoy boy was listening -- and LISTENING CLOSELY . " what happened the other night? " his voice teeters on the grounds of demanding , hopelessly looking for any answers that would pertain to what memories he seemed to be lacking . " i woke up here yesterday -- i don't -- i don't remember . honest . " there's a noticeable genuineness to his words , leaning ahead to show that he was intently looking to hermione for the answers .
the uncomfortable feeling of guilt had been ridding anything that dallas had tried to consume that day , causing his head to pound & patience to be more thin than it was usually . ‘‘ great , glad that i’m second when it comes to your precious golddigger . ’’ the comment was unnecessary , which is what his scrunched up face proved as he began to pinch at the bridge of his nose with eyes forced shut . ‘‘ sorry , uncalled for . ’’ he said as he pushed out a deep breath that he had taken . ‘‘ i forked that megara chick new years . ’’ he said , opening his eyes to look at soda with eyes filled with worry . ‘‘ then meg came over in the morning . what the fork is wrong with that ?nothing . forking nothing , so why the shirt am i whining like a little birch like darry or pony would ?’’
dallas had dissolved his outburst before sodapop could state a defense , it wasn't often he found himself teetering on CORRECTING dallas winston but he truly had prepared himself to in that instance. " okay whoa , slow down . slow down . " sodapop's hands had been placed in front of him , pushing the air as a gesture to try and comprehend what dallas was talking about . " considering this is how you're acting , i think it's a safe bet to say you don't really feel that way about it . you never get like this . you're feeling regret , dal . that's regret . " something that darry , pony and sodapop all seemed to feel on a regular basis . " seems like to be that you care about this meg one -- here's a trick that i've learned . " sodapop had stood up a bit straighter , attempting to word his feeling in a way that would resonate with the man . " if meg went and slept with someone else , would it make you consider murdering a human being for touching her ? if so , then you're in deep . ESPECIALLY when a person like you is feeling that -- no offense , man . "
MEG’S CONFUSION CONTINUES TO grow as the seconds tick by, brows furrowing as she listens to him rattle on. she is no stranger to his tantrums, but she had hoped they would have faded with maturity. obviously she was wrong. “ well, i also do not know what you’re talking about ! there is obviously some sort of miscommunication here. ” but it couldn’t on her part. no, meg is rather sure of the pleasant news that had been spread throughout the march family. of course, she had been overjoyed. the eldest march had always considered laurie to be a part of their family, but it was exciting to know that it would soon become official. she elicits a deep sigh, raking a hand through her hair as she softens her gaze, determined to set the record straight. “ please calm down. i’ll tell you what i believe to be true : if jo is not engaged to you, then she is not engaged to anyone. i was informed that upon your arrivals, the two of you were able to mend your relationship and you proposed to her again, and she accepted. i just saw the two of you together at the new year’s eve ball, happy together i might add, so i don’t understand where all this confusion is coming from. ”
there's an echo of silence that falls on him , his eyes watching curiously as the tears began to spill from them . he had never done well with stuff like this and it had knowingly hit a nerve withtin laurie . his lips twitched anxiously , allowing a held exhale to finally release itself. " i do not remember any of that . it all feels fuzzy -- i just remember leaving for europe, the entire lot of you not wanting anything to do with me. the last time i saw jo -- i -- " oh god . he had completely lost his cool over the ring on her finger, it now seemed to dawn on him why she had put up such an argument over the notion . hands rubbing his forehead nervously , laurie's dark curls had fallen across his face , shadowing the disgust with himself that seemed to hold itself present on each and every feature . " why do i not remember that? should that not be something i remember? " he states, defeat evident . " this place -- it makes me feel so weird -- so displaced . "
the lamp stayed in its place between tightened fingers , eyes filled with fear but also anger . she had been watched before - like hell was she going to let it go unresolved in the good place , the place she was supposed to be safe . once he began to talk about some hat , she began to lower the lamp & the fear in her eyes turned into annoyance . ‘‘ you’re peeking into my home over a hat ? i don’t know you , why the fork would your hat be in my house ? there’s a front door that you can knock on . who raised you ? ’’ she said , heightened voice to show her anger over the situation , the anxiety slowly beginning to leave her body .
his reading of social cues had never been well , perhaps peter lived too far into his head to ever really bother to look for them . her tone was loud , but in reality , that was really all that he could read from the situation . which is why with a coy smile , and a tilt of his nose upwards , peter explained his childhood situation . " taken as a baby , brought to neverland . raised with the lost boys and mermaids -- and the fairies ,of course . i did go back to see my mother once , though they had another baby -- there was no need for me . " it's a detail he had shared with few but considering his arrival into the afterlife , peter didn't exactly feel the need to filter such statement any longer . " my shadow took my hat , i saw it crawl up the side of your house so i assumed it must be in here . though i don't see how that boils down to who raised me ? why , who raised you ? mermaids as well ? "
she’s picking at the underneath of her nails as he continues to talk towards her , most of what is being said going through her left ear & out her right . she had nothing against wearing black , although most of what her parents would buy her were black & navy blue to make a lodge staple when she was seen in public . she could rememember when her mother lost her temper when they tried to dress her daughter in green for one of her episodes of her reality show ; green was taken off the choice board that day . the mention of her pearls caused hues to jump to draco’s face , fingers pausing at their mission to clean any dirt from her existence . ‘‘ how dare you say such a thing about pearls . they are ageless , it’s disappointing that you’re shirting of the legacy of the greats – audrey hepburn is rolling right now . ’’ she hissed . ‘‘ jabs ? interesting word . ’’ she mused , looking back down at her nails . ‘‘ call it a comfort thing . ’’
there is a boiling IRRITATION that eats away at the slytherin-alumni , his piercing gaze especially icy as it focuses back on her . " as if i even know who that is . " he grumbled , making it known that her reference meant completely nothing to him . he had never been one to stay up to date on muggle-culture , only the obnoxious gilderoy lockhart would wear pearls in this day and age -- but she wouldn't understand such a reference and it would lose all meaning if draco needed to explain it . ' a comfort thing ? how is that in any sense comforting ? " his statement was muffled for a few minutes as he returned to his closet , only to raise to an uproar . " did you CUT my shirts ? " his hands rest on one fo the clothing hangers , a t-shirt dangling from it with an obvious jagged cut across the middle of the waist . "
meg nods along to alice’s ‘ confession ’ calmly. surprise was an emotion that she elicited less often than most people did, due to the things that she had to encounter during her tumultuous life on earth. “ we’re still all in the adjustment period. don’t worry. you’re not alone. ” she says with a small and reassuring smile. “ humans talk about death all the time and we’re still shocked by it. ” she notes with a finger raised in the air. “ do you remember when we first arrived here ? michael basically treated us like five-year-olds when he broke the news of our death to us. ” she laughs.
“ you sure about that ? ” meg jokes with an arched eyebrow when alice shifts the focus of the conversation to her. however, the smile that she has donned on is somewhat strained. “ because i am not. i’ve… done somethings. ” meg quickly brings her water bottle to her lips and takes a long drink from it, partially to stop herself from spilling unnecessary details about herself.
“ so, was that helpful ? ” she asks while clasping her hands together. “ i hope it was, i tried really hard. i better get full marks on this assignment or else. ”
there's a certain wisdom that comes from her words , with alice curiously latched to them as if they held secrets that she did not know . in fact , they sort of did . for alice , she had never found herself in a state of UNKNOWING . it had inflicted a fear that she was not even prepared for -- uncertainty . but even so , she cats the woman a smile -- almost rivaling her KNOWINGNESS and gives her head a slight nod . " they have been doing this for many years , there are no mistakes . it's obviously that one of your actions guided past any that could have harmed your chances of being here . A PURE HEART always shows through . " alice rested back , no longer feeling the strain of panic that had seemingly plagued her earlier . " it does , i suppose as just as arriving here , there is a path that will be followed .. it is the good place , of course . what could go wrong ? "
she was honestly shocked that all of her plants were in place , sometimes she swore that they would die in his presence . despite their differences , she couldn’t help but look at anakin & visualize something that her brothers would have become —- someone with a sharp tongue , but the ability to stand up for themselves & understand their worth . something she hoped that she had taught them well before they all got separated without any contact allowed while they grew up in different areas . ‘‘ oh , you are far from intimidating to me , don’t think that i’ve ever feared you , skywalker . ’’ she said with a smirk on her lips , looking at the male across from her . eyebrows began to furrow towards the middle of her forehead as she began to listen to his words , standing up straighter . anakin skywalker was asking her for relationship advice ? after years of refusing to stay in a relationship , she was the one in the healthy relationship ? it was almost difficult to surpress the chuckle that wanted to come through . ‘‘ alright , let me get this straight before i begin to torture you about needing my help —— you actually think that padme is playing you ? have you seen the way your wife looks at you , anakin ? i’ve seen that look — i’ve had that look . why would you ever think that padme would do something like that to you ? ’’
although he feels gravely about the situation at hand , anakin allows a smile to quickly warp his features . he had always bee amused by the family-like connection he shared with the woman , in ways , it reminded him of the bond with ahsoka . a sister-like one . but in a way , jamie seemed to give anakin a much harsher truth when it came to his questions , she was right in saying that she did not share the feeling of intimidation that many felt in his presence -- confirmed solely on the fact that she never failed to crash his ego when an opportunity arose . -- anakin did not mind as much as he had in the being , it provided an outlook he often REALLY needed . arms resting over his chest , the man had rolled his eyes -- having expected such a response . " i am haunted by the memory of her leaving , etched with a scorching marker in my mind -- i cannot rid myself of it . how could something so easily change ? yet remain unspoken ? she cast me away , denied any connection between her and i , between our children and then to arrive here and all has become null . it just does not make any sense . i chose to respect her decision by removing myself from the picture , but in doing so it has created even more tension . has she mentioned anything about it ? i feel lost . "
CLOSED STARTER FROM PADME AMIDALA . FOR : anakin skywalker . ( @spclljar )
anakin had become distant , although padme wasn’t sure if he was experiencing the same problems in his mind the same way she was . it was another empty bed when she woke up , heart slightly cracking a bit each time she would open her eyes & not see her husband peacefully resting next to her , how they deserved to wake up . sitting in front of her mirror , padme began to comb through her hair , hoping the motion would soothe her internally to help her get through yet another day of being in the darkness regarding her husbands peculiar attitudes . her head shot towards the bedroom door when she heard the front door close , padme getting up from her vanity so quickly she thought she was going to simply fall to the ground due to the light - headedness that followed . ‘‘ ani ? ’’ she called out , hugging herself as she turned the corner , peeking at him as a small child , worried they’re going to get yelled at by their parents .
his hands grip the metal mechanisms closely , having spent most of his evenings in the garage -- working . he had needed time to think , aware that the space and his hobbies would allow him to mull over his own feelings -- something that he often held great difficulty in controlling . " i have come to the conclusion that i fail to understand you . " his voice is a low hoarse octave, waves of his hair ending with strong curls that rested on the nape of his neck brushed against him as anakin finally took a seat on one of the living room chairs . hands resting on his knees , the man leaned back against the cushion as his examining gaze move to focus on padme . " you left me . you wished for nothing to do with me , for me to have nothing to do with our children and then we arrive here -- and suddenly , that is all forgotten . " his statement sounds more along the lines of a question , though his rambling has soon taken over , not allowing the woman to speak as anakin's own voice commanded the conversation . " not that i feel as though you had no reason to give up on me , you did . you whole-heartedly did . you still do . but to act as though you feel anything different from that has grown too much more me -- you have showed where you stand clearly yet -- " his expression is one of pure distraught , palms facing upward as though he wished an answer would fall into them . " -- this is far greater than a heart can take . "
forty’s in the radio tower. he loves it here , particularly because it was not only his request to have it added to the good place , but he also takes credit for the idea of it in the first place. he’s working away on stories and scripts for his and veronica’s good place podcast when the muffled voice captures his attention. and although it doesn’t startle forty , it certainly irritates him. he had been in the zone , which is , admittedly , pretty easy for an inspired writer such as himself. but still. annoying. he spins around and squints at the man on the window. forty heaves a sigh and drags it open. “can i help you , duke of lanky spider monkeys?”
" spider -- what ? " peter ponders aloud , physically shaking off the thought as he returns his attention to the man . his eyes are wide , attempting to completely absorb the entire tower that he seemed to be resting on . " is this a place for aliens ? " he questions , having heard the term used during a questionable fight between a guy with a light up knife and a very aggressive lady -- perhaps they were on to something . the large metal area felt as though it could possibly be EXACTLY what they had been arguing about and peter had never been one to allow a moment's curiosity to pass without exploration .
SHE ALLOWS A MOMENT of silence to pass between them, a slow exhale blowing past her lips as her eyes narrow. he’d always had a habit of bringing out the worst of her temper, and it seems as this situation would be no exception. “ previously ?! you know, i had really thought better of you, malfoy. but this low, even for you. ” she balls her fists in her lap, steadying her breath as her hard gaze meets his. hermione can feel her cheeks becoming flushed, her tone growing harsher at each word that falls from her lips, but she’s determined not to let him see her crack. “ if you want to act this way, fine. i should have expected nothing less, considering you’ve always been nothing but a coward. i can’t believe i even contemplated giving you a chance ! ”
he had often found himself in confrontational situations , whether it be home or school , he was a natural magnet for such things . so he inhaled sharply , opening his mouth to retort pack aggressively -- and instead , his entire mouth went dry , leaving the man completely speechless . staring at the woman in shock of his own body's actions , and practically cursing it for allowing such a thing to happen under these circumstances . " i don't know what you're even talking about ! " draco had found his voice , although it was much shriller than usual . " what chance ? what are you even going on about ? it's been years since i've even seen you . you die in a tri-wizard cup and suddenly everyone things you're a coward -- you're going on like a sphinx , complete nonsense . why did you even come over ? to make fun of me ? fork sake , i've heard enough . " the upset is clear , displayed across draco's entire face like a failed painting .

“ y-your shadow ? ” her brows furrow as she tries to process the other’s flow of logic, but when peter swerves dangerously due to the strong breeze, meg immediately reaches her arm out for support, however, at the cost of losing her train of thought.
she decides to focus on catching this ‘ shadow ’ on the loose instead of trying to wrap her head around it for now. after all, since she was faring well in the after world and its new contraptions, meg was confident that she could get used to a shadow.
“ well, how important is it for you to find your shadow ? ” she adds as she sticks her head out the window to get a better view. “ i can help but, to be honest, if it keeps on running away from you, maybe it’s not a good idea to chase after it ? maybe it’ll come back to you if you let it enjoy its freedom long enough. ” meg speculates unconfidently, hoping that the small smile on her lips would offset how impractical her idea could sound.
" clearly you do not know my shadow . " his states aloud , annoyance dripping from his sharp tongue . " if one loses their shadow , it can often lead to a string of bad luck . it tends to get into trouble -- which is why i had it sewed on last time , just before i came here . " his tone is a matter-of-fact , thankfully , as peter would be unaware of why someone would possibly question him -- especially with him being do confident in his explanation . " you wouldn't happen to have some thread on you , would you ? " his question is essentially a half-thought , his focus now trained on the ground as he mentally calculated how he would be getting down . it was a shame that fairy dust was not used here -- it would solve situations like this with ease . " come on now , what are we waiting for ? we're wasting precious time . " peter encourages , leaping from the window and diving into the pile of leaves just a few feet below .
OPEN STARTER FROM GUINEVERE BECK ( @selectedhq-starters )
if anyone asked her what she imagined the good place to be like , it would be this . surrounded by endless books on shelves , perfectly sorted by genre , their bindings in tact without one inch of misplace . she wanted to feel overwhelmed but she couldn’t , she couldn’t even bare to take her eyes off the books that were just drawing her in . slim fingers reach up to lightly brush against bindings of a few novels , a faint smile on her lips as if the books were whispering a secret to her . she heard them behind her , although she couldn’t really bring herself to care if she was in the way . ‘‘ if you had to read one author for the rest of eternity —– who would it be ? ’’ she asked the unknown person behind her .
he stands awkwardly behind , having meant to acknowledge his arrival but it appeared the woman had noticed long before he was able to make his presence known . " jo march . most incredible writer i have ever read , her books are not yet past the rough stages but i believe they will take the world by storm . " although the situation was rocky , laurie could not help but speak honestly from his soul . " and anything by walt whitman , i have always found myself drawn to his descriptions . " he states , readjusting the ring on his finger as he speaks . " i wish i shared such a talent , mine stems solely from music -- which in a way can be deemed descriptive but it does not do well in competition with one's way of words . "
