i have stopped bringing flowers to the grave of the teenager i used to be.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

“well, it was a bit scary at first. i was only still there because my uncle was late picking me up, and the girl who’s party it was had a dad that didn’t want to just leave me behind on my own.” she shrugs a little, taking a drink.

[ᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐂𝐎𝐖𝐁𝐎𝐘 ᅠᅠ ＊ @godstxn]

“Really ? I mean - I would be kinda scared , ” but that's just him , Casey is a badass who isn't scared of anything.

“What was it like I mean , to be kidnapped by a cannibal ? ” it's so strange to think they exist in today's world.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

and she always appreciated him. making her laugh and smile. he was the first one who brought her out of that shell she had once been. “yeah, i hear about sightings every once in a while, but .. i’m not afraid. he doesn’t scare me.”

[ᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐂𝐎𝐖𝐁𝐎𝐘 ᅠᅠ ＊ @godstxn]

A sigh of relief , nodding , “I'm glad - I mean - heard they ain't caught the guy yet but - I'm glad you're safe , ” Casey was like a big sister to Riley in the home , he appreciated her so much.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she settles down on the opposite side of the booth, her coffee settled onto the table top between them. “oh , yeah. it was .. a lot, but i’m better now. i’ve been in therapy , i’ve progressed so much.”

[ᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐂𝐎𝐖𝐁𝐎𝐘 ᅠᅠ ＊ @godstxn]

“I've been good ! ” he smiled , letting her go and offering her to sit opposite , “Hey I heard about what happened - are you - okay ? ”

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she hugs him back, smiley as ever as she rubs a hand up and down his back. “you’ve gotten a lot taller. how’ve you been?”

[ᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐂𝐎𝐖𝐁𝐎𝐘 ᅠᅠ ＊ @godstxn]

“Casey ! Hey ! ” Riley stood up to hug her , arms embrace her with a big smile on his face - for sure it's been ages - he's probably grown a lot since they saw each other last.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she’s gotten her own coffee order, spotting him in a booth and walking over with a smile.

“hey you!”

[ᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐂𝐎𝐖𝐁𝐎𝐘 ᅠᅠ ＊ @godstxn]

Modern AU starter for @adornedcatalysm

Riley was excited to see Casey , it had been ages since she had left the children's home and he was meeting her for coffee , waiting patiently in the booth.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she smiles, settling each little pile of napkins down beside each of the plates, looking up at him next. “i really missed you.”

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

“Nope , we're all set - ” and he's got the drinks and setting them down , this was weirdly domesticated of Kevin , but Casey makes everything so much easier to do things with.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she walks over to them, smiling as she opens the pack and grabs a tiny stack of ten , five for him, five for her, just in case because you can never be too careful. “anything else i need for the table?”

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

“Oh uh - ” napkins , where did Patricia move them to - “ Oh , just there look , it's a fresh pack - ”

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she smiles, nodding before going to grab two plates, a couple forks and knives.

she takes them through to the table before coming back to the kitchen, “napkins?”

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

Well either way , she's going to look good !

“ Plates will be in that cupboard there , the knives and forks in the drawer above it , ” Kevin sets out to get the lasagne to reheat for them both - it was made this morning - lord knows why Patricia did it.

i have stopped bringing flowers to the grave of the teenager i used to be.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she happily follows him, smiling. she has had thoughts of possibly cutting her hair shorter , but she hasn’t followed through yet.

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

“For sure , ” he looked back to her setting her hair in a messy bun - it suits her that style - Kevin motions for Casey to follow him.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

“i wouldn’t mind at all. if you show me where the plates and things are?” she says softly, smiling as her hair is finally settled into a messy bun.

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

“Uhm - if - you wouldn't mind setting the table ? ” Because they're trying to not eat on the sofa , use the dining table as a normal person would — to create routine and a new habit , show they can break old ones.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

“oh that sounds delicious.” she smiles brighter, hands coming up to pull her hair into a messy bun.

“do you need help?”

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

A little smile , looking at her for a moment longer than he normally would and he looks down , shy , “Yeah - I'm - I'm glad to hear that , ”

As for food -

“What uhm - we got some lasagne Patricia made if you want some of that ? ”

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she lets out a soft sigh, a little shy smile on her face. “i always feel safe here, kevin. around you.” it’s true, it’s been true.

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

“No , no it's never too much , we - always have snacks and - want you to feel safe here. ” Safe to ask for food , drinks , whatever she needed they will always try and adhere to.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

“oh , some coffee would be good. and food , maybe, if that’s not too much.” she definitely doesn’t want to feel like a burden, or like she’s asking too much of him.

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

“Yeah , ” Kevin smiled, hands going to his pockets as he watched Casey , “You uh , want a coffee ? Some food ? ”

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

“that’s good. that’s progress!” she’s happy for him, really. she’s smiling as she steps further into the apartment now, looking around. she can see bits and pieces of different personalities , and she knows it’s for each alter.

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

“Good , I've been good - ” he's happy to see Casey though , “Weve been - between jobs and therapy - were doing a lot better , ”

Medicated for a start.

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

“i’ve been okay. busy too, working and all that. how’ve you been? other than busy, of course.” she asks softly, smiling as she toes off her shoes and leaves them by the door.

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

Kevin smiled a little bit as she came inside , “Yeah uh - we've uh - been busy I think , ” Dennis has been working as well as Luke and Barry , “How have you been ? ”

[casey cooke. @adornedcatalysm]

she smiles softly as kevin opens the door, eyes looking him over as she does.

“hey you , glad to see you’re alive.” she teases softly as she steps inside the apartment.

[ⅩⅩⅤᅠᅠ ⸻ᅠᅠ 𝐊𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍 ᅠᅠ ＊ @thehcrde]

@adornedcatalysm

Apartment has been cleaned to within an inch of it's lift , then the knock came. Kevin opened the door and smiled at Casey.

“ Hey you , come on in ! ”
