[ His heart's pounding, too, from the adrenaline and the unrestrained emotions running wild inside, held at bay only by his knowledge of the bystanders around them. It's been some time since he's had to maintain a public face without the mask, but it's not as if he's forgotten how.

The moment he feels the barrel of a blaster pressed to his stomach, his grip on the lightsaber tightens, ready to ignite the blade, except...

Well.

Looks like they're at an impasse. It's mutual destruction unless they either part ways peacefully or one gains the upper hand again.

What you are. Ren bristles at the words, grits his teeth and very nearly strikes then and there. ]

You drew your blaster. You fired the first shots. [ Not that he blames Dameron. He'd likely do the same, if he'd come across an enemy worth his time.

There's a quick-thinking mercilessness that he could almost admire. His voice softens, blandly inquisitive. ] So tell me... If I cut you down: what do you really think they'll see?

[volitaunt]

[ Poe's smile goes from hard-edged and violent to something softer. Wild adrenaline gives way to the perfect knowledge of who and what he's prepared to die for. Who and what he knows he'll leave behind to finish the fight. ]

I mean, BB-8's pretty popular all on his own and you threw him into a wall. Killing his partner, a member of the Perimeter Guard, in a street full of civilians? [ He presses his blaster a little harder against the man's ridiculous black shirt. ] How many friends have you made here, Kylo Ren?

[ With the way Poe says the name, he might as well be saying neener neener. ]

[killthepast]

[ He can feel it: the certainty, the complete lack of fear emanating from Poe. He would be content to die for his cause, his people. Ren should kill him, then stamp out every seed of the Resistance hiding in this quarantine, just to prove the pointlessness of such sentimentality.

Except... the lesson wouldn't be particularly effective, since the person he'd be teaching it to would be dead...

Ren answers that question with a forceful (lowercase f) shove back, putting some distance between them. He's confident enough that he could stop the bolt if Dameron gets it in his head to try firing again. ] I should thank you for returning this to me. [ BUT HE'S NOT GONNA, SO THERE. ] Go.

[volitaunt]

Hmm, no, I don't think I will. [ He's still got that smile on his face. Poe slides his blaster back into its holster, keeping his hand wrapped around the grip. ] This isn't a First Order star destroyer. This isn't a First Order base. You're no one. So I think I'll stay right where I am, and you can go.

[royalpassport]

they're always making more! that's why it's such an incredible and unique story!!
there's nothing else like it
lewis carroll was a visionary

[ OH KENZI. HE WOULD ALSO RATHER BE MAKING OUT WITH YO FACE. ]

you wouldn't right now
we're in rehearsals
my face is in full puck makeup
there's a lot of glitt

[ Wait. This is Kenzi. ]

i'm sorry i just enticed you with glitter :(
anyway who's your partner?

[onteamdyson]

dONT YOU DARE WASH ANY OF THAT SHIT OFF UNTIL I PICK YOU UP AFTER!!!!!!!

[He knows her too well. She has been greatly enticed by the glitter. Jeff is basically the perfect Puck even without the makeup or the excuse of a play.]

kylo from film studies? idk if you've seen him. v tall. all black all the time. hair that looks like it should move but doesnt bcuz u know he put like 800 pounds of hairspray in that shit after curling it at 6am

switching to that MODERN AU JEFF ACCOUNT FOR ACCURACY

[un_birthday]

do you want me to keep the full costume on or just the makeup?

oh him
i know him
he's v intense
and he doesn't like me so maybe don't mention my name around him :(

[killthepast]

[ Why is a 4.0 so unbelievable? ] You could have one, too. [ Why, that's almost nice-- oh wait he's scowling and adding: ] If you stopped texting and applied yourself.

[ Seriously, put your phone away.

SEETHING EXHALE THROUGH HIS VERY LONG NOSE. ] That is not the-- why would you even claim that when you have Stanley Kubrick's entire filmography to choose from?

[ He's so!! offended!! ]

[killthepast]

[ He hates this man, this nothing of a rebel, putting to words everything he knows already about his status here. Of course, it's only temporary: he'll either find his way off his rock, or he'll rise in the ranks. What he won't do is languish like some bottom-feeder. And what he should do, right here and now, is rise above and walk away with his dignity intact.

But, even still, the knowledge that this is but a transitional circumstance can't keep his anger at bay in this moment. If asked, Ren would claim his fury as a strength, but there's a part of himself (small, quiet, but still present) that knows what it truly is: weakness. And it's one that he gives into when, with a snarl, he whips his hand out to yank Dameron's blaster and shatter it against the nearest wall.

When given the choice to walk away or throw a giant baby tantrum, he goes for the latter. AND NOW HE'LL TURN ON HIS HEEL AND STALK OFF. ]

good icons yes

[onteamdyson]

depends. does the costume come with tights?

... what did you do this time? did he buy one of your knock off, ultra rare, totally legit, limited edition ANYTHINGS? or did you scam him out of a couple hundred bucks at a table?

IF HE TAKES HIS DISLIKE OF YOU OUT ON OUR PROJECT IM not actually gonna care that much tbh i make up the average on exams and ur brother keeps doing my homework

[onteamdyson]

Hey, as long as mine stays above a three, I'm good. I'm taking my pre-law years easy. Don't wanna burn myself out before the hard shit. [That is... some strategy, Kenzi. Also what? Is this bothering you? Is her gaze glued to the screen, thumbs flying furiously over the surface of her phone, barely listening to anything you're saying making you upset, Kylo? Too bad.

She's multitasking.]

Because if it came down to watching a clockwork orange or D2, I'd pick D2 every time. Think about that, kylo. Name one other film series that holds up as well as ANY of the mighty ducks movies. Name ONE!

[volitaunt]

[ Because it is the purview of rebel scum to be snarky in the worst possible circumstances, and because Poe was definitely definitely not startled by that particular display of meaningless power, he yells after Ren's retreating back: ]

I liked that blaster!

[ He's just going to stand there for a few seconds. Collect himself, make sure Darth Tantrum is really leaving.

And then he's going to flat-out run back to the communal housing building and find his goddamn roommates. ]

[un_birthday]

not tights PER SE
but very tight pants

um the first one
there was a lot of yelling when he realized it
and then he threw a book at my head

that's so unfair you know
chase never does my assignments and i'm family!

[killthepast]

[ HE WOULD SAY STAR WARS, BUT ALAS: HE CANNOT.

Instead, with fierce determination, he answers: ] Lord of the Rings

[onteamdyson]

babe. B A B E. what are you even doing im not gonna be able to concentrate on anything now

great. awesome. hes violent and unstable. this is just... the best possible outcome

FIRST OF ALL chase likes me better. second of all HE DOESNT WANT TO BE A THEATRE MAJOR WHEN HE GETS OLDER WHY WOULD HE DO YOUR ASSIGNMENTS

[onteamdyson]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring. They could have cut the run time of all movies in HALF and not lost any of the story. It takes forever to get through any of them! I'd rather watch Alice in Wonderland for the millionth time.

[Because at least with ANY of those movies, she can usually keep herself entertained by distracting Jeff about halfway through.

... Those kinds of distractions are not going to work on Kylo.]

Okay, look. Let's face it. You're probably gonna be doing the majority of the work on this thing because you seem like that type of guy. If you pick ANYTHING even remotely interesting to me, I'm a fuckton more likely to contribute.

SOME TFLN SHIT

[killthepast]

1. moral of the story: I'm going to stab everyone

2. Anyway, my grandfather thinks you're attractive

3. If I wasn't planning on spend the rest of my life with you I wouldn't send you so many nudes, so fucking appreciate it

4. Do you find Darth Vader masks attractive?

1

[onteamdyson]

how is that different from any other moral of any other story you've EVER told me?

[killthepast]

You make me sound like a maniac.

[onteamdyson]

no! no way! not a maniac!

more like... ivory-skinned hulk. or the human embodiment of the angry birds game. if you were patron saint of something it would probably be road rage.

just rage in general

3

[hypothermic]

And how long are you planning on staying alive, exactly?

I want to know the kind of deal I'm getting.

[killthepast]

Just because I threw my ipad across the room ONE TIME it doesn't mean i have a rage problem

IT WOULDN'T STOP LOCKING UP ON THE UPDATES

[onteamdyson]

ok wait. wait. you threw THAT one across teh room one time bcuz after you threw it it smashed into a billion pieces

p sure you threw like. two others before that. your dad is so freakin cool that he keeps getting you ipads as a substitute for being present in your childhood

[killthepast]

Longer than you.

[ You've got the head start, after all, Len.

ZING. ]

[killthepast]

[ screams

Your worship of his father is your worst quality, Kenzi. ]

Yes he's so generous, sending me ipads that were probably stolen in the first place.
