[ molly can be found bumming around the beach, sitting out with some cards spread out in front of himself, but he'll collect them up when he sees someone approaching - shuffling the deck in his hands. ]
[ That afternoon, Mizi goes about her business. Aggressively. She works out. She makes herself a sandwich, and cuts it into little bite sized pieces. She stretches. She does some vocal warm-ups.
Eventually, she runs into Mollymauk, and when she does, she grins. ]
[ mizi absolutely SLAMS into the clinic and by slams I mean she opens the door with slightly more force than usual. ]
I can't believe dying once wasn't enough. [ oh no she can't remember how many times his profile said he's died time to make up a number ] Now you've died like, what, six times?
[ hello hello. Welcome to my week 2 prompt. Molly is just in the workshop making some bullllllllshit. Seriously, it seems like it might literally be nothing but modern art, from someone who wanted to play with fiery power tools. should someone who's newly lacking some depth perception be doing this. we can discuss the existence of god some more while he does this. ]
[ Here's Mizi! When she notices that the power tools involve a little flame, she absolutely locks the fuck in. Very reassuring quality to have.
She actually takes a second to put on the steel toed boots, given that they look very nice with her new outfit, before peering over Mollymauk's shoulder. She'll rest her chin on his shoulder for a few seconds, if he lets her. ]
Whatcha got there?
[ Not at all concerned about the depth perception. In fact, Mizi herself squints a bit. ]
[ Mizi isn't really seeking anyone out after all that, but she will go visit Columbina in the clinic, and after that, spend some time walking down the beach. If she runs into Mollymauk en route to the clinic or at the beach, she'll offer him a little nod. ]
for a little context - the caleb in this memory is a lot more cleaned up and better-fed looking than the caleb mizi knows now. and lucien also looks exactly like molly, except much less clean and thinner. Cree is also a huge cat lady - about a head taller than lucien is. she big. ]
[ Mizi's gaze lingers on the cleaned-up Caleb, and then on the shrine to Mollymauk. She's not entirely sure what to make of Lucien. You end up with the last remaining extremely annoying part of your conscience signing up for a murderous game show to try and save you from yourself.
By the time the memory finishes playing out, Mizi thinks she understands what Mollymauk meant a little better. ]
You're really nice to him. Even though he wants you gone.
[ sunday evening, mizi will go find mollymauk. she's got a drink with a little umbrella in it and if she has to walk around the entire island with her little umbrella, so be it! ]
[ after mizi and jem split up, mizi goes to the lemon lounge, standing outside until someone lets her in. she's a bit distant at the moment, but one thing cuts through the haze: the lemons shouldn't have to find out over the phone. and they shouldn't have to be alone. ]
Mollymauk. I'm sorry.

Oh you mean at the party. Well, you see, that's because of the final rule of Lemon. If aren't dating someone by the end, we don't get our wish. So I have to pretend.

Hey now. I didn't die this time, despite my best efforts. So you can't add it to the tally.
