(Shit what’s his last name I feel like she should know this)
(Shit what’s his last name I feel like she should know this)
(I looked it up and uhh…. technically it’s Escalus since both he and Paris are related to the Prince in the play lmao)
( 👍 Thanks Sorry
Whoah that’s weird, Marina’s falling for a guy related to her best friend’s to-be husband)
MARINA: Escalus
(Lmao Ikr! I feel like he doesn’t talk to Paris though.)
MERCUTIO: Ugh.
(Oof yeah
That would make Marina and Mercutio….. cousins in-law??? Weird)
MARINA: Lmao. T or d?
(Just try not to think about it too much XD)
MERCUTIO: Dare. Try to give me a good one this time.
MARINA: i dare you to buy me a pizza sometime this week. Cheese.
MERCUTIO: I’ll send it to your house at 3 AM.
MARINA: dont u dare
MERCUTIO: Try me.
MARINA: dont u fucking dare. i saved you from a beating, don’t thank me by getting me into one
MERCUTIO: Fine. Fair enough.
MARINA: mm. Your turn.
MERCUTIO: Truth or dare.
MARINA: truth again
MERCUTIO: Do you like anyone?
I began to type a denial… but my thumbs stalled. They hovered above my screen for a few seconds, unable to move as I turned the question over in my mind. Finally, I settled for an answer as vague as what I hoped I wasn’t feeling.
MARINA: maybe. I think so. But I hope I’m wrong.
MERCUTIO: Why? Aren’t you the one who gave me the whole date someone because you like them rant a few minutes ago?
MARINA: no, i gave you the ‘dont date people for sex’ rant. And the last thing I need in my life rn is a schoolgirl crush
MERCUTIO: Bet you anything I’m sexier than they are😏😏😏
(Mercutio, sweetie, you are they.)
I nearly snorted out loud at the irony. But, unlike Juliet or my other friends, I didn't think that a stupid crush on a Montague was catastrophic. I'd wait it out. It would blow over. Giving attention to my crazy teenage hormones would only make things worse.
MARINA: u wish. and either way, idrc if people are sexy. sex is overrated.
MERCUTIO: You can say that again.
MARINA: wait, are you actually… agreeing w me? Or was that sarcasm
MERCUTIO: I blame it on exhaustion, but yes I am agreeing with you.
MARINA: … didn’t you say you’d date a girl just for sex, tho? 🤔
MERCUTIO: I said they date ME for sex. You could at least pretend to listen to what I say
MARINA: right. Either way, it’s vastly overrated.
MERCUTIO: Agreed, Pazza.
MARINA: im half tempted to call you Nasty Asshole at school tomorrow
