RITU ARYA As Lila Pitts In THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY | 3.07 “Auf Widersehen”

           harlowe’s  glad  to  see  some  lightheartedness  at  this  party  .  from  the  moment  they  stepped  in  ,  it  seemed  like  everyone  was  walking  on  eggshells  and  using  this  party  as  a  distraction  from  the  latest  vigilante  news  .  just  like  how  the  masked  killer  called  out  the  group’s  mannerisms  .  “  glad  to  know  that  you’re  one  of  the  few  i  can  count  on  to  agree  that  an  old  fashioned  isn’t  pretentious  ,  ”  laughter  expels  past  the  musician’s  lips  .  “  a  spicy  margarita  ,  i  hope  ?  that  would  DEFINITELY  get  mr.  flavortown’s  approval  .  ”

when bash sees harlowe smile, he's pleased with himself. if he even made one person smile with his silly goofy costume, mission accomplished. that was his entire thought process when picking out a costume. not if he'd look hot but if he'd make people smile. he smiles back at them and replies, "it doesn't sound pretentious to me at all." he picks up his drink and adds, "i'm having a margarita. i think mr. flavortown would approve."

         her lips turn upwards involuntarily , without a second thought . and god , how she loved anybody who wasn't a man ! ' oh , come on , i don't believe that . surely you've got the longest line of suitors waiting for their chance to even catch a glimpse . ' a small suck of her teeth , disbelief , came out . val's head will tilt to the side slightly , eyes lighting up - the quickest way to her heart is through her looks ! ' you know , i would never lie to you , so yes i've been told quite a few similar things , but just between you and i ... i like it much better coming from you . ' reign it back in , girl ! ' now tell me ... how's life been treating you these days ? '

#she’s just like me.. guys who? no thanks i want shoes

           was  the  letter  from  vigilante  creepy  as  hell  ?  yes  .  but  nalini  will  be  damned  if  they  let  some  masked  killer  stop  them  from  living  their  life  .  besides  ,  they’ve  listened  to  enough  true  crime  podcasts  to  know  to  never  let  their  guard  down  .  and  for  now  ,  there’s  a  halloween  party  in  full  swing  .  and  if  they  can’t  fully  enjoy  their  time  ,  what  was  the  point  of  attending  in  the  first  place  ?

who: open!

where: halloween party @ bootsy bellows

the letter had put sapphire on edge but she wasn't going to let some anonymous weirdo stop her from having a good time. partying was one of sapphire's favourite things in the whole world. she loved to dance, she loved the light airy feeling of being tipsy and she loved that it was socially acceptable to talk to everyone like she was their best friend. halloween parties also came with the added excitement of costumes. sapphire's costume was a recreation of a purple sparkly jumpsuit worn by diana ross. she was eager to show it off while having the best night of her life.

"you look amazing!",she greeted the other person. the cocktail she was holding matched her outfit. "i love costume parties but i'm always nervous nobody is going to get my reference. it's like what if somebody thinks i'm wearing a totally spies jumpsuit that's the wrong colour? do you get what i mean?" sapphire asked, gesturing for emphasis.
