Continue to grow and change [open]
who: Rey and YOU, and various peoples.
what: Catch all thread for January
when: Throughout January
where: Around various places
warnings: None, will update as needed.
A) Studying and no play makes Jill a dull girl: OTA
Ever since Rey was given a small book on the Force by Ren, she had been pouring over its pages. To anyone else, being given a book by an enemy (could he really be called that at this point?) would scream 'trap.' Ren had only done this because he was trying to get on her good side, but he wasn't. From how he acted when he visited her at the hospital, he came with neutral (or dare she say good?) intentions. She had been pouring over the book itself, a simple notebook with no title or name of an author to give away who wrote it or what it was about. She handled each page with care, reading and rereading what she could about the Force; what it was, and how it was used. This had been more information than she could've expected from him...and he didn't once ask her to join his side, or let him be her teacher.
To put into practice what Rey was learning, some people might find her meditating out in the park. She was trying to connect to the Force, to feel its presence and open herself more to it. Maybe even try to use the Force in a subtle way to make small pebbles move across the dirt. Rey wasn't ready to let others know what she was doing, or what she could do. There's something of a peaceful look on her face as she meditates. Her stuff is nearby and the notebook is settled on her lap in case she needs it.
B) Sleepover: For Marco and those who live in Marco's place before the glow ball.
Rey had come to Marco's place to hang out with him to see if they could actually sleep with the new incense she purchased. Maybe a peaceful night's sleep would be within reach. It would be needed as tomorrow they would be shopping for a dress for her and the stupid ball. It would be a big step outside of her comfort zone, but it was good to try new things, right? Besides, Rey had been wanting to spend more time with Marco since they became friends, especially after learning how much common they had.
She came with over a small bag, the strap hung over her shoulder. A change of clothes for tomorrow, her pajamas, Luke's lightsaber safely tucked at the bottom of her bag, the incense itself, and her comm device in case anyone needed to get a hold of her. She was used to sleeping in the same room as Poe and Finn, so this would be an interesting change of pace.
C) Shop till you drop: Lola.
"Is this really necessary?" Rey asked as she waited for Lola to finish getting ready. They had agreed to meet at Marco's place before Lola took Rey out to look for new clothes for her--really, she continued to insist that she needed more than one outfit, which sounded so weird to Rey. However, during the ball Lola had a few points: such as needing more pairs of shoes for different things and having spares wouldn't be bad. They had bonded during the night where they had make up one their faces and pretty gowns. And Lola convinced Rey to expand her wardrobe.
Well...hopefully it wouldn't take long. Rey wasn't a picky person. Her clothing tastes were more on the simple side, and if it was comfortable, then all the better. Surely, this wouldn't take too long...and surely, this wouldn't be a bad experience, right?
D) Was it really a dream: Kylo Ren
Laughter. Smiles. Jokes and teasings that made her heart race. Bubbles that tickled her nose, dark eyes that she couldn't look away from, and a kiss to soft skin. The images and memories of the night after were all a blur in Rey's mind. Her head was aching, a side effect from drinking too much and not taking in enough water. She was in a bed that didn't feel like her own, and a body that was too tall to be Finn...or Marco's. There was the faint scent of cologne that made her feel warm, and made her hug the body next to her. She shifted slightly and heard the faint rustle of material, her dress. Yes, she was still in her dress, but her hair was down now, fanned out over the pillow and brushed over her shoulders.
Opening her eyes, she could faintly make out the person who she was holding. It came back to her then, the jokes and quips she exchanged with him. How he looked at her and didn't automatically tell her how different she looked. Surprise nor shock came over his face, and he spoke to her...like they were friends. Rey should be retreating from him, pulling away and making her way back to the floor and room she shared with Poe and Finn...but instead she closed her eyes again and murmured, "Go back to sleep, Ben."

"Who makes up those rules? Girls not having pockets or as big of pockets as men's?" Maybe they should complain, or if anything just not buy that brand or person? She wasn't sure. It was just ridiculous to her, or maybe it was the norm here? Who knows?
"The grey jeans were nice, and maybe this top. I think that would be enough." Really, she was thinking she was getting two, maybe three things at most. No need to go all out and get a complete new wardrobe. That was too much, so starting off small would be nice. But....would Lola listen to that? Rey headed back into the changing room, putting on the next outfit, making sure to button up the blouse properly. Okay...this was better. It looked comfortable and not so dressed up.
"On my speeder, making sure it works fine, or trying to figure out how other things. I nearly took the comm--the phone apart just to see how it was built." Rey stepped out, showing the outfit to Lola and tilted her head a little. "You wouldn't have to cook. We could get food...it's okay." Lola didn't have to cook in order to spend time with Rey...
no subject
Rey can get two or three things, Lola can get two or three things for Rey, that math Lola can work with. Because Lola just wants Rey to have stuff to look good in. Lola's kinda weird. "Ohh, that looks really nice on you." So much so Lola's color matches Rey's top pretty much reflexively. Lola's hair is also kinda weird.
"Hush. I like cooking, it's more cost effective and fun because I get to make something myself," Seriously what was with everyone not cooking!?
no subject
"....No offense, but that's a bit stupid. Clothing should be practical regardless of you're man or woman..or anything." But hey, at least she wasn't calling Lola stupid. She was calling the idea of being dressed to show off her asset like she was livestock, stupid.
"I'm not worried about the design, I'm more concerned about the practicality of it. If I happen to look nice in it, then that's a bonus." Oh Rey, ever so practical and not caring for how she looked. Though Lola...had more of an idea of who Rey should look, but the woman was happy with the outfit choice so much so...her hair changed colors.. Oh well.
"What I mean is...you don't have to cook when we hang out. You don't have to do anything if you don't want to."
no subject
"Why not have both, find what look you like, and that'll be a look that is also practical for your life. Except when the Quarantine has a huge fancy dress party," Lola smiled and assessed some other clothes, picking out something in a mint green, short sleeved, but a little too breezy and light for Rey's taste. She can try it anyway, "I'll stop offering you pant options until we can find things with pockets. Try this on."
"And I like caring for other people, making them food is a part of that." Lola was not some pretty freeloader, she made herself useful and loved meddling. This also meant making food and being overall there for others. "If it was some sort of chore I wouldn't offer to do it."
