violetta isn't sure if she's being mature or childish. she's mature, she doesn't want to end on bad terms; she's childish and half-hearted in this reconciliation, shopping bags of clothes and take-out (beau's favourite, the guilty pleasure she had shared with violetta). she's learned to push off anxiety to do what must be done and she's cool-headed and solemn when she steps off the elevator and knocks on the door.

"fuck off," he whines out loud for no one in particular to hear. he'd just managed to drift off to the low murmur of the tv as background noise when the knocking at the door made for an abrupt awakening. if it's one of his sister's amoebic suitors, ezra thinks, he's going to boot them all the way down twenty flights of stairs— "what?" the teenager flings the door open, scowling. at the sight of the woman laden with bags his expression softens, turns curious. "vi? she's not in." @violetta

"hi ezra," she says pleasantly. between beau and ezra, she expects a loud greeting. she steps back a little when the door slams back - at least it's well made enough the hinges don't rattle. his anger seems to evaporate at the sight of her. "aw, shit." she shifts the weight in her arms. "you know if she'll be back soon? or i can just drop this off." they aren't quite clothes she's borrowed, but clothes beau has insisted she take and wear. EZRA FLANDRES

he leans lazily against the doorframe, arms crossed, peering at the bags and then at violetta. "not sure," he replies vaguely, cocks his head and considers the encumbered woman. then ezra steps aside decisively, as if coming to a satisfactory conclusion. he's always liked violetta, or at least never disliked her—a rare status among beau's friends. "nah, you should come in and wait." without waiting for an answer, he takes part of her load and turns back into the suite, sets it on the glass tabletop in the living room. @violetta

she probably should have called first. but violetta and beau, their breakdown, seemed organic - why not leave the rest to chance? it's good luck, as far as ezra being home - as far as ezra being in a good mood. she steps in, pushes the door shut behind her and puts the rest down on the table as well. "thanks." she isn't really looking at ezra, but around at the home that hasn't changed. "what are you up to?" her gaze drifts to the television, and that's as much of an answer as she needs. "anyways, i brought food." she points at one of the bags, so he can help himself. EZRA FLANDRES

he returns to the couch, presses his cheek against the back cushion and blinks the drowsiness out of his eyes. "not much. i was sleeping," ezra answers, without much lingering resentment. the rest of it evaporates completely at the mention of food. his stomach rumbles, reminded it's empty, and ezra sits up newly invigorated to look through the offerings. he takes out a styrofoam container and opens it up like a present to reveal its contents. "beau loves this stuff," ezra comments, looks at violetta significantly but doesn't voice the question. instead he bites into a sugar-dusted beignet, chews thoughtfully. @violetta

she settles back onto the couch - violetta doesn't seem to ever lounge. she sits comfortably prim, leaning towards the table a little. violetta takes choosing upon herself as if it's deciding the rest of her life, with the time she spends staring into the box pensively. "so do you." she says, withoiut glancing his way. she's back for beau, of course, but violetta feels defensive. does he only think of her as an extension of his sister? of course he does, but it shouldn't be a problem. violetta plucks a pastry from the box, glances sidelong at ezra, back at the table, then her eyes flicker back to hold his.

"yeah, but—" he stops short to pick his words carefully, takes another bite to mull it over. ezra swallows, gaze intent but not particularly accusatory. "you're here for a reason. you brought bags of her clothes." @violetta

"yeah." she admits, settling into silence, turning to stare at the tv and listen to its noise. she wants to point out that she's never even worn most of them, but it doesn't seem worth saying. she's finished half her tart before she speaks again. "is she still mad at me?"EZRA FLANDRES

silently he follows her lead, leans back to stare blankly at the tv screen. for the first time ezra notices it's on some sort of game show. he gropes for the remote, half-buried in the space between cushions, fishes it out and flicks through the channels sporadically. in resigned defeat he settles on a sitcom, watches intently for a good minute. his mind wanders, weighs the lesser of two evils: histrionic game show participants or canned laughter? "do you know what's going on?" once the beignet's eaten ezra points at the screen with the remote as a baton, tone serious. he tags on as an afterthought: "you'll have to ask the princess herself, but i think she's just being stupid." @violetta
