Song: Ghost by Confetti.

(With some slight adjustments to the lyrics to avoid as much repeating and make it more accurate to characters in certain places)

Characters:

Garvin.

Context:

So, uh, Garvin has this habit that when he gets attached to someone, like actually attached to someone, he leaves. Because once he actually cares, leaving on his own is easier than being told to leave. This can cause quite a bit of drama with people he’s crashed with in the past, especially ones where there were other feelings involved. Such as with Melzar or Felix. Both of whom you don’t know because, again, you know an overview of Garvin trauma but almost nothing that’s actually specific.

I’ll give you approximate ages, as per usual. When I give you Garvin’s age, keep in mind that he doesn’t actually know what his age is.

-

*For a bit, Garvin had been crashing with Melzar. Garvin, at best, saw it as a friends with benefits kind of thing. At best. Melzar thought they were together. As one could expect, that lack of communication comes back the worst way possible. Especially when Garvin starts to more consistently consider them to be actual friends, not just the surface level, fake friends that he’s comfortable with having.*

Garvin (18), to Melzar (20), more or less an overview of their last conversation; “Look, I don't wanna fight you. You got to know that I meant it when I said that I liked you… Or maybe just the idea? I bought it, don't want it, now return that shit like IKEA. Apologize, I'm not a mind reader. I need attention, so I try to be a crowd pleaser. It was easy 'til it got a little deeper, now I don't know how to deal with you so I'ma disappear.”

*Switch up slightly. When he leaves Melzar, that’s when he joins the Giles run group, Lucia isn’t yet part of the group.*

Garvin (18), taking the free train ride method he apparently loves; “I'm a ghost, now you see me, now you don't. I'm a ghost, every time you hit the phone.

*Switch up the timeline, by quite a bit. Another person Garvin did something similar to was Felix. This time, it was kind of communicated and the whole thing was a complicated mess. Neither of them got into the relationship liking each other, and they were kind of using each other. So when feelings start showing up, Garvin panics and dips because he already knew it wasn’t going to last forever, nothing with him does, so leaving on his own is easier.*

Garvin (21), to Felix (20), more or less an overview of how the last conversation between them went; “Hey, I know it's inconvenient to change your background but let's back down. So you can see this is a problem I don't wanna put myself in front of. That's why I blocked you, 'cause I'm not the guy you should rely on… Or spy on, creep on, I don't know. I just ain't that type of hoe, if I don't holler, let me go. I should've said it but I didn't and I won't.”

*Switch up the timeline slightly. Again, immediately after the conversation, Garvin packs up and leaves. If he hadn’t already packed up and was on his way out when the conversation started, that is.*

Garvin (21), making his way to a new city; “I'm a ghost, now you see me, now you don't. I'm a ghost, every time you hit the phone.”

*Switching the timeline way back. Because it had been a thing even before Melzar. It had been a thing since before the group with Rinny. Unfortunately, that was the first time it ever showed up when the people involved actually cared too. Ford and Garvin were prone to fighting though, so it took longer.*

Garvin (16), to Ford (14), in that mockingly smug way of his; “I know you hate me, ‘cause I've been shady. I don't get reception, I missed your call but best believe I got the message.”

*That being said, even if it took longer. It did happen eventually. Because Garvin cannot handle people genuinely caring about him. Or him caring about someone either.*

Garvin (16), to Ford (14), a general overview of their last conversation; “Why don't you just leave me alone? I think it's lasted way too long. I thought by now that you would know… But since you don't?”

*Switch up the timeline slightly, Garvin leaves yet again! As one could probably expect.*

Garvin (16), free train ride method; “I'm a ghost, now you see me, now you don't. I'm a ghost, every time you hit the phone.”

The song lyric thing is great!

I'm sure Garvin having a habit of leaving after getting attached to someone won't cause any problems at allllll, especially not with Ingall who totally doesn't also have trauma about losing people. No problems could ever possibly occur from this match up, totally XD

Haha, yeahhh...

I'm sure it'll be fine. If the attachment sneak up on him without him noticing for long enough then there's a small chance that he won't run once he does notice it. We'll have to see what happens though.

Anyways-

Next choices!

We can hope, lmao

Song: Be Nice To Me by The Front Bottoms.

(With some slight adjustments to the lyrics to avoid as much repeating and make it more accurate to characters in certain places)

Characters:

Garvin, Lucia, and Kody.

Context:

We’re back with some more of Garvin and Lucia being an odd pair of besties! And some Kody, because he doesn’t/won’t get much attention overall in these, haha.

While the timeline doesn’t change much age-wise, I’ll still give you approximate ages, as per usual. When I give you Garvin’s age, keep in mind that he doesn’t actually know what his age is.

*Surprisingly, the group didn’t have much trouble with having deeper conversations. Kind of. Really, they didn’t have much trouble with having someone else ranting and whoever they were ranting to half listening. Conversations like that were, at best, a way to pass the time. And, at worst, annoying. Lucia and Garvin, being the two of the more talkative ones there, and being rather close, tended to rant to each other a bit. Kody, being the least social of the group, tended to be the one who found those conversations the most annoying. Usually, like this time, these conversations happened during trips to a new city.*

Garvin (19), half asleep and mostly just rambling; “I got boulders on my shoulders, collar bones begin to crack. There is very little left of me and it's never coming back. There are certain things you ask of me, and there are certain things I'll lack. The beginning, we were winning, but now I'm just making up facts. What's it matter anymore? If you believe the lies I tell… There's no meaning to the words, but we still sing these songs well. If we all left it alone, I'm sure it'll work itself out fine. We keep playing with the numbers. We are running out of time. We are running…”

Lucia (18), repeating back the sentiment and offering what limited comfort she could; “We are running… But you're a killer and I'm your best friend. Think it's unfair, our situation.”

Garvin (19), glancing over, half bitter and half amused, referring to a past conversation; “You say I'm changing. Sorry, I didn't know I had to stay the same.”

Kody (21), trying to sleep and annoyed that he can’t; “Could you talk about this later? Your voice is driving me insane.”

*Somewhat surprising, Kody’s the first one actually kicked out of the group. It kind of shakes the group a bit, knowing that all of them are willing to leave any one of the others behind. Giles is the only one who seems completely unaffected. Though each of them act like they don’t care much. Regardless, Lucia and Garvin still kept close enough to have their conversations, this time with one less person to tell them to shut up.*

Lucia (18), rambling about how the ramblings don’t actually matter; “I try to write you poems, but the words, they don't make sense. My hand tries to grip the pencil, but the fingers are too tense. I try to show emotion, but my eyes won't seem to wet. I'd love to tell you stories, but I can't remember how they went.”

Lucia (18), starting off half amused half grateful, ending up slightly concerned too; “You're a flashlight in a dark room or the loneliest black out. You were all that we had left after it all was filtered out. I'm turning you on in a dark room right before we both pass out. I'll turn you on when I need you, but the batteries ran out.”

Garvin (19), half amused, agreeing and offering what limited comfort he can; “They ran out. You're a werewolf and I'm a full moon. And all your very worst enemies will be gone soon. I think you're changing. Don't worry, you don't gotta stay the same.”

Garvin (19) and Lucia (18), referencing what Kody probably would’ve said if he were still there, both of them half amused; “Can we talk about this later? Your voice is driving me, driving me insane.”

I love the lyrics!

Glad you liked it!

Here are the next choices lol
