The party ends a little awkwardly, with Chloe and Emily sharing a drunken kiss in the kitchen. No big deal though, right? They didn't have a bachelorette party with strippers or anyhting so this is like a slightly-late bachelorette freebie.
It's not like it meant anything. Like Emily would fall madly in love with somebody over one little kiss? Please. That'd be craaaaaazy.

“So.” she took a sip of her coffee before continuing, “You’re conflicted, because this girl you like, who you’ve had a crush on for years and had previously written off as ‘never gonna happen’ is a possibility?”
“I’m conflicted because of the reason why it’s a possibility.”
“Right, right. Because, she’s getting married in a few months. But, it’s an open relationship?” He nodded in confirmation, “But you want… something more domestic, move in and have a family type stuff, which isn’t gonna happen if she’s already married.”
“...Exactly.” He sighed, “I mean, I like her a lot Chloe, but.. I dunno. I just… I want someone to come home to, you know? I’m okay by myself and all, but if I’m gonna go in, I’m all in.”
“Hey, man, look. That’s totally fair. I’d be fine partying it up for the rest of my days, but I get that. That sounds complicated to navigate. I wouldn’t want to do that either. Trying to work around two other people’s schedules, plus your own? Not for me, I don’t think.”
He agreed. He wasn’t sure what to do about it though.
“And look. You seem like a ‘settling down’ type dude, ya’know?” He wasn’t sure if that was a compliment or not coming from Chloe, seeing as she was clearly not a ‘settling down type’. “Like I know you’re a bit older than me, and this girl of yours, but I’m betting you were always wanting to just be domestic and stuff with the girls you were serious with. Am I right?”
He rolled his eyes at yet another correct guess, but nodded anyways. He had always been that type, even in his ‘wilder’ teen years and 20s. He’d met Darleen pretty young, and they’d hit it off in their senior year of highschool. And Not long after they’d graduated they had gotten married and she’d found herself pregnant. And he wouldn’t change any of that for the world.
“Maybe… in that case it’s time to move on, man.” Chloe said after a moment. “You said you’d been friends for years, right? If she’s your friend, she’ll understand you wanting to stay friends too.”
He sighed again. He was fairly sure she was right, of course. But he’d held onto the feelings he had for Cassie for so long, he wasn’t really sure how to move past them, “I wouldn’t know where to begin, Chloe.”
“Well, for the most part, you… date.” She grinned again, “You gotta go on dates to see if you want to date someone long term, you know?”
“I have been out of the dating game for over 20 years. You make it sound so easy.”
She laughed joyfully at this, “cause it really is. And besides. Dates are fun. You get to do stuff you normally wouldn’t, and go places you wouldn’t have thought of! And meet people you wouldn’t normally.” He frowned slightly. Her opinion on dating was a lot more… optimistic than his. He remembered dating being tiring and stressful. Had he been doing it wrong before he met Darleen?

Heyya bud!! Hope all is well and you're staying safe! Out of curiosity, will that PP TV series that you posted the GIFs for be a thing? Like would you actually consider writing out each ep? No pressure of course, I was just curious because it seems like one effing awesome idea xx (plus I actually do think a series would be cool in real life) XXX awesome as always xxx
I’ve thought of it, yeah! We have a vague idea of where it would go. It would be a fun writing exercise, but I def want to finish some of the other things I have going on rn! But if it becomes a thing, just know that chloe and i would have lots of fun making gifs to go along with it 💕

I can't stop thinking that Chloe might be INCREDIBLY upset to realize that the man she loves can only be hurt because of her and the angst potential is killing me (especially with his wing injury in the finale)
Nonny, I think about this from the time I get up in the morning until I fall asleep at night.
Not only is Chloe going to be upset, this development is literally something that is ultimately capable of hitting her where she’s most vulnerable. Because Chloe is a protector. It’s the reason every crime scene breaks her heart--these are people who died because they were unprotected. Whereas Lucifer wants to solve crimes to ensure perpetrators are properly punished, Chloe is all about justice and making sure the criminals never hurt anyone again. She quite literally serves and protects. It’s like a covenant she makes with the dead: no one was there to protect them, so she’ll fight to make sure no one is hurt again but the person who hurt them.
How awful is it for a protector to be the only thing that can result in someone they love getting hurt, dying? 
To weaponize vulnerability (hers, Lucifer’s)? Is there anything viler? Knowing what we know about Chloe, I suspect she will be horrified by the ramifications of this. Remember how Lucifer reacted when he found out Chloe made him vulnerable? I fully expect we’re going to get a flip-side/parallel of this from Chloe. Knowing someone can only be hurt in your presence? That’s a lot of responsibility, especially for someone who already has a tendency toward denying what she wants if it’s for what she perceives as the greater good. Much as she loves Lucifer and wants him in her life, I definitely think there’s going to be a moment of pushing him away for what she thinks is his own good. (Plus, let’s be honest, that ties in with a lot of themes the show comes back to again and again.)
But yes. First, she’s going to be upset that this, specifically, is something Lucifer kept from her. Second, a lot of things are going to start to make sense to her---like how he managed to get those kids out of the poison gas room without dying and why he tends to throw himself into dangerous situations without fear; he’s never had to be afraid before. Third? Third, can you imagine the tumultuous highs and lows that come with knowing someone cares about you that much? That someone who is literally immortal when you’re not around still chooses to be at your side all the time, even though that’s the only place they can be physically harmed or killed? That this someone literally died for you, twice---on purpose, just to save you?
It’s ... a lot. Chloe’s going to be going through a lot.
The show loves giving us Lucifer’s emotional/physical/mental journey; honestly, it’s time for Chloe to get some time. Because no matter how good she is at processing, this stuff requires a level of processing that is beyond the pale. We’re talking Linda-on-retainer levels of processing.
Sidebar: I’m curious to see if the show doubles down on the ‘we all choose everything ourselves/punish ourselves’ revelation from the finale episodes. Does Chloe only make Lucifer vulnerable because he feels things for her he’s never felt before? Does that mean he can unchoose to be vulnerable around her? Or is there a kind of combo effect? Is Chloe’s miracle status relevant
Personally, I hope the vulnerability thing stays because look, now that Chloe knows she makes Lucifer vulnerable, you know the writers are going to use that to traumatic effect. You know there’s going to be a Big Bad who figures this vulnerability thing out and uses it against Chloe and Lucifer as the ultimate manipulation tactic. You know Chloe’s going to have to see some villain literally using her presence so they can hurt Lucifer.
And I’m not gonna lie, this is exactly the flavor of angst I personally love the most because it’s not rooted in anything gratuitous. It’s real pain that comes from real love. It’s the kind of angst that hurts because all the emotions involved are so raw and real. I’m really looking forward to seeing what they do with it.
PS: Return of Devil face better not mean loss of wings because wings. And wing angst. And protective wings. And wing trauma. Battle wings! Mmmhmm. Hurts so good, amirite? #ThingsINeverKnewINeeded
PPS: I need to write about some of this stuff, I know.

DAY 4 OF PP RARE PAIR WEEK 2018 IS A THING! This was soooooo much fun to write! If you want to picture Chloe as an angel (literally) please give it a try. I hope you all enjoy this!
Pairing: Chemily
Theme: Supernatural AU
Type: Fluff
Summary: All the stories she had been told as a kid, seemed to be true. And Chloe can't be more thankful for having Emily's curious ass with her.
Wordcount: 1286
"STOP BUGGING ME, EMILY!" A very frustrated Chloe entered to the bathroom with an equal bubbly brunette hot on her heels. She loved her friend; to pieces even. But she tended to be so much to handle sometimes. Even for Chloe who was considered a bubbly sunshine girl for their friends. But Emily? Oh, lord. She was a whole upper level.
"BUT CHLOE! Listen up!" Emily grabbed the redhead's arm and spun her so they could be face-to-face.  "This research says that they do exist! Isn't it amazing?" and Chloe couldn't find it in her heart to pop the young girl's bubble.
"I love you, Ems. I do. But I think you're becoming a little obsessed with all this thing" Chloe brought a hand to her shoulder blade, trying to calm the itching that seemed to be chronic by now.
"It's itching right now. You know it's a possibility" the stubborn brunette tried to convince her. "Besides, you remember being told a lot of stories about them as you were a kid" of course she'd bring it up. Damn Emily for being so curious -sometimes way too much for her own good- and damn herself for sharing random stories she was told, with her.
"Yes, Em. And that's what they are. Some mythological creatures that people use as... ACHOO" Chloe sneezed hard, her whole body shaking. "Ugh. Whatever, as I was... What now, Em?" Chloe frowned at her friend's blank face.
"You... OMG! YOU'RE ONE OF THEM! I WAS RIGHT!" Emily closed the distance, trying to reach something behind her.
"What are you talking about? You have a fever" she reached for the taller girl's forehead, trying to check the temperature.
"No fever, I'm great" she spoke with a smirk. "You, on the other hand..." Chloe was spun again to face the big bathroom's mirror. "Have-"
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH" Chloe's scream could have totally shattered the windows. "TAKE THEM OUT! I DON'T-"
"They're beautiful" Emily whispered amazed by the big wings on Chloe's back, her body shivering at the softness of the new addition.
"THEY'RE ENORMOUS, EMILY!" Chloe couldn't find in her another feeling than panic. Did this mean that she gets to change her whole wardrobe in order to fit this gigantic... wings? Oh shit. She has wings! SHE HAS FUCKING ANGEL'S WINGS!
"Calm down Chloe. You can't take them off but-"
"I CAN'T CALM DOWN, YOU IDIOT! I HAVE FREAKIN' WINGS!!" Chloe felt bad instantly for snapping at the sweet child that Emily could be sometimes. "I'm sorry"
"As I was saying..." Emily ignored her apologize. "You can't take them off, but you can hide them" she finalized letting herself lose in the withe-as-snow feathers.
"How?" the redhead's voice came shaking as she felt tears starting to form in her eyes. She wished for the stories her grandpa used to tell her were that. Just stories.
"First of all, you have to relax" Emily's hand found hers. Chloe rolled her eyes; as if it was that easy. "Do you trust me?" the brunette asked with a long sigh.
"Always, Em" she tried to concentrate on other stuff but in the things that Emily's touch was doing to her.
"Good. Now breathe deeply and focus on your... Oh, my god. I can't believe you have-"
"EMILY!" Chloe called her friend's attention. "We need to go back to the girls and I can't walk with these things"
"Right, sorry" she blushed,  a shy smile on her lips. "So, deep breaths and canalize your energy to your wings. You have to be able to retract them back" her voice was so soft that Chloe wondered what'd feel like to be lulled by her.
And Chloe did as she was said. Counting till ten, she calmed her breath and tried to hide them. She really did. "I feel nothing," she spoke after some moments of silence. "Em?" she asked at the absence of words.
"It... it almost did" she responded. Blank face mixed with curiosity and amazingness. "Try it again"
And that's how Chloe found out that all those stories people said were in fact, true -she was proof of it. And for the first time in her life, she was happy to have someone as inquisitive as Emily.
It seemed that at age of eighteen, your wings could come up at any moment and it wasn't always in the same ways. As her grandpa told her time ago, some could get them with just a sneeze or even a hard cough (she was glad it was the first option) and some could get them at strong emotions like anger or fear. She just hoped she didn't get to stop what she's doing and run to save some dumbass from any imminent damage. God knows she'd trade her perfect wings for dusty ones.
Emily, on the other hand, was literally obsessed with Chloe's wings. She'd ask for the redhead to bring them out every time they were alone -something that seemed to happen so often- as she'd remember stories about those beautiful beings -not that she considered Chloe one of them, and would talk to Chloe about what new info she had found.
Deciding to take her eyes out of her current book, she started to walk without a real destination finding herself in the hidden spot she and Chloe shared sometimes. It wasn't a surprise when she found the redhead sitting at the edge of the cliff with her legs hanging.
"Sup, Angel?" she called with a smile on her face.
"My name is Chloe" she sighed without looking at her.
"What's wrong, Angel?" she repeated making herself comfortable besides Chloe. Legs crossed and body facing her.
"I don't want this" the redhead finally looked back. Her eyes casting a shadow of sadness. "I don't want to contain my emotions all the time. I don't want to fear for someone finding out about me" Emily's heart hurt the sadness of the words.
"This is a curse only if you feel it like that. You can always keep working until you get so attached to them that they'll obey you" her hand found its place on Chloe's tight, giving it a squeeze. "Besides, how many people get to fly for free?" she smiled fondly at the laugh that escaped her friend's mouth. If it wasn't music to her ears.
"I guess you're right" Chloe shook her head trying to hide her smile. "But still. There's not so much help I can get, Em. I wish I could be a witch. It'd be so much better" she returned her sight to the endless sky.
"And set things on fire whenever you argue with someone? No thanks," the brunette shivered at the simple thought. She knew that magical creatures had it harder. "Plus, I love your wings. They're beautiful and so soft and-"
"You love them, got it" Chloe cut her standing still.
Before she could even react to the words, Chloe fell from the cliff making her heart stop. "CHLOE!" she felt life starting to leave her body. Oh god, what would she do now that-
"Perks of having wings" Chloe suddenly appeared in front of her, mischievous smile tugging from her lips. Her big white wings balancing her in the air contrasting against her hair. The sunset enlighting her long locks, making it look like her precious face had literal fire as a halo. The sight was just... breathtaking. Oh god, she knew right then right there that she had fallen for her Angel and there was no way back.
"Don't fly that near the sun, Icarus" she joked in an attempt to regain her breath.
"Oh baby, I'm so much better than him" Chloe retorted winking at her playfully.

05. Reading Report: Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino
In comparison to other readings that have been done throughout the first term, the first text I decided to be working on for this project addresses the issue of the modern experience of the city in a poetical and fictional way, rather than providing us with a large amount of numbers and facts. This text is the 1972 novel Invisible Cities by writer Italo Calvino (it was later published in the UK in 1975). This book consists of a narration by Marco Polo to Kublai, Khan of the Mongol empire, in which he tells the emperor all the cities he has seen in his empire throughout his many trips.
In total, we can read the descriptions of 55 different cities, all of them named after women and classified into eleven groups of five cities each: cities and memory, cities and desire, cities and signs, thin cities, trading cities, cities and eyes, cities and names, cities and the dead, cities and the sky, continuous cities and hidden cities.
All of them, as I mentioned before, are presented to us as if they were descriptions of imaginary cites. Nevertheless, they turn out to be a poetical explorations of different faces of the city, which, although Calvino claims all of them to be Venice, city of contrasts, where no two people happen to know the same face of the city (some are tourists, some are historians, and some, just live in those streets), they can actually be applied to all modern cities.
“Every time I describe a city I am saying something about Venice.” (1975, p.39)
Each city touches the reader and makes them feel as though they were Marco Polo himself and have traveled across the Mongol empire’s lands to see those curious places. Before even getting to read this book, they sure had visited Chloe (1975, pp.25-26), the city where nobody greets anyone; and there is a high chance that they have walked across Anastasia’s streets as well (1975, p.11), the city where each civilian becomes the city’s slave by working eight hours a day just to experience a fake sense of freedom and desire. Nevertheless, the luckiest readers have also found the hidden city that lies imprisoned within Marozia (1975, pp.64-65), the one that only appears after the slightest spark of kindness lights up. These poetic stories explore the darkest faces of the city and look at the experience of living in one of them through a somewhat pessimistic set of eyes filled with hopelessness and despair. Nevertheless, the story ends with a spark of hope through Calvino’s words (1975, pp.68-69):
“The inferno of the living is not something that will be; if there is one, it is what is already here, the inferno where we live every day, that we form by being together. There are two ways to escape suffering it. The first is easy for many: accept the inferno and become such a part of it that you can no longer see it. The second is risky and demands constant vigilance and apprehension: seek and learn to recognize who and what, in the midst of inferno, are not inferno, then make them endure, give them space.”
In a way, as we read through the pages in this novel, these cities are no longer places, but rather questions and ideas in our own minds, making us wonder if we’re looking at the world through the right angle. Each page needs to be processed; it needs to be given a thought. No matter if we are talking about heaven or inferno, a traveler like Marco Polo will always want to know other places and the people who live there by looking at the places where they live. And us, as wanderers in the middle of these invisible cities, by looking at his words, are not only learning about those people who live in the metropolis, but also about ourselves.
“I believe that I have written something like a last love poem addressed to the city, at a time when it is becoming increasingly difficult to live there. It looks, indeed, as if we are approaching a period of crisis in urban life; and Invisible Cities is like a dream born out of the heart of the unlivable cities we know…. The desire of my Marco Polo is to find the hidden reasons which bring men to live in cities: reasons which remain valid over and above any crisis. (1975, p.6)”
This text was useful in my research in order to find a poetical way to approach the issue. Furthermore, it has given me a closer look to how the way we see cities change and several different points of view to take into consideration when talking about the city. Finally, by presenting so many ‘cities’, it has also invited me to create my own ‘city’ and reflect more about what it would look like to me, since there is not only one single way to look at the city.
Calvino, I (1975)  Invisible Cities. London: Secker and Warburg.

Chloe: Aren't they cute? I can't wait for our wedding. Maybe we should do the matching dresses thing too.
Nina: Ugh. By the time our wedding comes around everyone's going to be sick of attending these things.
Chloe: Hey, fewer guests means a cheaper wedding. I'm not complaining. Kind of mad we aren't going to be throwing Veronaville's first lesbian wedding party though...

The rest of the guests arrive! Antonio, Nina from work, her partner Chloe, Oberon, and Gabe O’Mackey. I can’t remember when exactly they made friends with Gabe, but I can totally see them getting along.

“When is the wedding, anyway?”
“We want to have it soon, I just have to have this stupid baby first so I can look hot in the dress.”
“You’re not thinking of keeping it?”
“Nah, you know me! Babies cramp my style. Besides, the babydaddy’s loaded, and his wife’s nice too. It’ll have a happy life, and me and Neens can keep having wild sex, unimpaired by stupid baby shit.”
“She’s still rocking your world, huh.”
“Oh, Lola, you have no idea!”

Soon enough it’s party time! Testee’s never met Chloe before and naturally has about a million questions for her.
“If you’re twins how come your hair is red?”
“Not all twins are identical.”
“And how come you don’t live in Strangetown with us?”
“My fiancée works in Veronaville.”
“Is Veronaville nice? What’s your fiancée’s name? Is she pretty? When are you getting married? Can I come to the wedding and be a flower girl?”

Testee grows up into a popularity sim in pretty pink dress. She loves nature, being outdoors, and dreams of someday seeing the ocean and maybe studying marine life, checking out hot sims in swimwear, perhaps even becoming the hand of poseidon? She’s a big fan of the supernatural, too, and very interested in her alien roots (perhaps one of the reasons she feels drawn to creatures of the sea, alien in their own way?)
She’s a little absent-minded and her difficult history can make her over-emotional at times. She likes unemployed sims and is turned off by hard-workers, I’m guessing she’d prefer not to have to compete with work for attention in a partner like she does with Ajay and Lola.
It’s a little emotional seeing Testee all grown up! I love her so much :’)

It’s a pretty big wedding, lots of guests! Even in the dark, though, they can see how happy the couple are.
