" I Can't Tell What The Time Is Telling Me . . . "

Summary:

" Dancing's just a way to flirt
holding hands and lifting skirts
if I could be as bold to say that
you make me a joy parade, I would "

. . .

wherein the author needs more chatfics so I made one instead (except said author has a horrible sense of humor)

Notes:

Book title and summary is from I cant tell what the time is telling me by And the kids !
Chapter title is from I dropped out by And the kids !

I have a horrible motivation state where I don't post anything once school starts cus i live in the Philippines so im truckloaded with schoolworks and since summer starts i'll post often (probably)
aside from that the high school setting is american so the schedule might be a little biased

I also made this partially because I needed flower husbands angst
Headcannon and all the nicknames so far is in the end notes

Chapter 1: Time will try to change you

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

X vios is a greek word for life, so vios series is the life series
X Everyone in the queer eaters are not in the same class
X Mumbo goes to a lot of family trips so he's not there most of the time
X Jimmy and lizzie and Grian are siblings while martyn and pear are their half siblings
X The queer eaters is for the Vios series which is a game series hosted by Grian but it gets side tracked into being a circle of friends type of chat

 

If it was OOC mb , i really tried giving them individual personalities and not just a piece of my own (still working on it)
It looks like im infantilizing Scar (im not) i just dont know how to portray him i swear
