Written in the Stars

Chapter 5

Notes:

Sorry it's been so long since I updated! Life and my novel got in the way- but I'm back now and are you ready for some LATE NIGHT feels?
When people are sleepy, they reveal more than they mean to~

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Oh my god, why are you even awake? It’s the middle of the night.

Also, don’t you have a skincare routine thing? If you’re awake that’ll mess it up. Go to bed.

Errr, first of all, in Space it’s always the middle of the night. Or the middle of the day. Times of day are, like, barely a thing. Sure the castle ship has an internal clock. But yeah. It’s always dark so what does it matter?

Secondly, awwww you care about my skincare routine! <3

Thirdly, are Galra allergic to bees?

Lance, what the fuck?

And I don’t care about your skincare routine. I just don’t want to hear you crying for 2 hours over getting a pimple. Again.

I don’t know if Galra are allergic to bees, but I am. You can’t use me as your Galra touchstone either. I’m half human. So whatever you’re planning with bees. Just…don’t.

Ok fine, fine. I won’t talk to Pidge about my awesome plan to release a swarm of deadly bees into a Galra ship. Killjoy.

Btw you’re so much grumpier when you’re sleepy. Kinda like a cat. It’s cute lol.

And EXCUSE ME. But my skincare routine is important! We can’t all be blessed with perfectly clear skin like you.

Err thanks I guess? I never really thought of my skin as perfect before though.

And I may be grumpy when I’m tired, but at least I don’t spout crazy things about bees.

You’re lucky I couldn’t sleep either.

UUUUUUUGH of course you wouldn’t think about your skin like that. Effortlessly pretty people never really think about this stuff. Unlike SOME people, the rest of us need to WORK at our good looks.

It’s worth it though ;) gotta look good for the girls.

I’d try and look good for the guys too, but they never notice.

I never got why you felt you needed to put that crap over your face.

I’m a guy. I think you look good most of the time. Just saying.

You are so annoying sometimes, you know that?

Well, as long as you’re not mocking me we’re cool I guess.

Besides, I don’t get why you care about looks so much. Isn’t what’s inside the most important?

Message:

See I knew you were a secret softie! What you just said was some straight-up Disney stuff. Lol!

And I wouldn’t mock you about this anyway. That would make me a jerk.

You can’t help but think I’m pretty ;) If I made fun of you for that, I’d be making fun of something you can’t change. Which would be a dick move.

I’ll mock you for dumb stuff. Like your hair, or your stupid jacket. Stuff you actually chose.

But you’re right about what’s on the inside mattering the most. Which is why I may flirt with everything that moves, but… I don’t fall for people easily. And I tend to fall for what’s inside more than outside.

When I fall, man, I fall so hard. Do you ever get like that? I can’t ever imagine you falling for someone to be honest. Too busy training and being all badass. Like Han Solo.

Even though I’m WAY more Han Solo than you.

Ok you’re babbling now. You should get some sleep.

I’m not going to rise to the stupid jacket comment. I’m not. I like my jacket. End of story.

And Han Solo thought he was cool and a lone wolf ‘til he met Leia. Then… he realised he needed people around him who loved him and needed to stand up for things that were greater than him. He found a purpose with those who cared about him.

If you’re any Star Wars character, you’re Chewbacca. Those roars he makes are all I can hear when you talk.

Omg. I’m so not Chewy! How dare you. I’m totally a Han Solo! Suave, good with Princesses, a sharpshooter, a good pilot and you said so yourself I’m good looking! Totally a Han Solo.

If you were a Star Wars character you’d be Kylo Ren. You edgelord. Fight me!!!!

You’re not great at reading between the lines, are you?

Don’t worry about it. You can be Han. I’m too sleepy to argue.

And Kylo Ren is cool. Has a badass lightsaber. It’s red.
