Well I'm Sure That This Isn't 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚏𝚒𝚛𝚜𝚝 𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎 𝚒 𝚕𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚍

❛  are you sure about this?  ❜

sure  was  a  strong  term  –  there  was  a  possibility  that  the  outcome  would  turn  out  in  their  favor.  both  barbie  and  jessie  get  what  they  want.  statistically,  the  possibility  was  below  fifty  percent  in  this  particular  situation;  but  luckily,  this  barbie  had  no  idea  how  numbers  and  statistics  work!  therefore  she  purses  her  lips  into  a  thin  line,  smiling  ever  so  slightly,  as  she's  nodding  her  head.    "  i  think  this  idea  has  got  some  potential.  "    at  the  very  least  she  was  honest  about  the  situation,  she  didn't  know  if  it'd  work,  but  she  has  the  spirit!  slender  hand  shifts  towards  her  face  to  move  golden  locks  from  one  side  to  the  other,  revealing  her  bare  neck.  she  trusted  jessie  wholeheartedly,  no  matter  how  she  were  –  human  or  vampire.  even  if  there  was  a  slightest  chance  that  barbie  might  not  make  it,  she  would  take  that  risk  for  her  friend.

"  i  mean,  i  am  human  which  means  i  am  a  walking  blood  machine  –  thing.  i  don't  mind  sharing  some  of  it,  if  that  means  that  you'll  feel  better.  "    a  light  shrug  follows  whilst  she's  tilting  her  neck.  though  barbie  wouldn't  admit  it,  her  blood  started  to  flow  at  a  rapid  rate  to  the  point  she  could  feel  it.  and  yet,  she  did  not  flinch  for  a  moment,  fighting  that  sentiment  swirling  within.  oh,  the  things  she'd  do  for  those  she  cares  about.  white  pears  are  flashed  towards  jessie,  as  a  feeble  attempt  to  prove  the  other  nonverbally  that  she  was  content  with  her  choice.

send me 🕯️to hear my character's inner thoughts about your character.

❛ i’d say we make a pretty good team. ❜

"  as  we  always  do,  "    a  bright  smile  upon  pink  glossed  lips  as  she's  laying  one  arm  around  midge's  shoulders,  pulling  her  closer,    "  when  haven't  we  though?  i  swear  i  can't  think  of  even  one  single  moment  in  time  when  we  didn't  accomplish  whatever  we  set  our  minds  to.  "    and  it  was  all  because  of  midge's  presence  in  her  life  ;  note  to  the  reader,  this  barbie  wouldn't  have  survived  more  than  a  week  without  her  best  friend.  barbie  needed  midge  in  her  life  more  than  she  needed  ken  –  as  atrocious  as  it  sounds,  it  was  true.  there  were  many  types  of  love  out  there  and  if  barbie  had  to  pick  one,  she'd  always  choose  the  platonic  one  with  midge  over  the  romantic  one  with  ken.  doll  lovers  come  and  go,  but  doll  friendships  last  forever.

"  have  i  told  you  i  love  you  today?  because  i  do,  i  love  you  midge!  "

both  hands  delicately  hover  to  hide  the  mouth  —  a  manifestation  of  barbie's  anticipation  for  gift  giving  surpassing  even  the  enthusiasm  for  the  holidays..  there  was  something  too  special  about  seeing  another  unwrap  a  present,  knowing  or  otherwise  what  it  contains.  the  way  their  eyes  lit  up  with  joy  and  the  way  a  wide  smile  spreads  across  their  features,  as  they  return  to  the  past,  when  they  were  kids  and  everything  much  easier.  kids  deserve  to  be  happy  and,  unfortunately,  for  barbie  everyone's  a  kid  of  someone  else.  which  doesn't  leave  anyone  she  knows  without  a  little  present.  cerulean  optics  observe  chrissy  intently,  as  if  not  to  miss  the  peak  of  joy.  a  melodic  chuckle  escapes  her  throat  upon  hearing  chrissy's  first  verbal  reaction.  hands  clapped  together  as  her  fingers  interlaced.  ❛❛  yay,  i'm  so  happy  you're  happy  with  it.  at  first  i  was  thinking  maybe  i  should  bring  you  there  and  let  you  get  your  own  bear,  but  then  i  thought  about  it  and  i  couldn't  spare  you  the  element  of  surprise.  ❜❜  unable  to  contain  herself,  she  involuntarily  spills  the  beans  —.  it  was  extremely  difficult  for  her  to  keep  such  a  secret  hidden  as  it  often  overflowed  her  psyche.  the  compulsion  to  divulge  or  bestow  presents  promptly  upon  acquisition  was  simply  insurmountable.  ❛❛  luckily,  i  found  something  you  can  choose  from.  you  have  to  come  with  me  to  the  christmas  market  but  you'll  be  picking  what  we'll  do  there.  how's  that  sound?  ❜❜

barbie has arrived to your inbox, chrissy. and guess what? she brought a  pink  care  bear  to  which  she  put  a  santa  hat  on  before  badly  wrapping  it  up.  it  was  pretty  obvious  what  was  behind  the  red  paper  wrap,  but  barbie  hopes  the  gesture  overthrows  the  awful  wrapping  job  she's  done. ❛❛ this belongs to you. i thought i should give it to you before we go to the christmas market. i just couldn't wait until christmas. i hope you like it? ❜❜

---☁︎｡⋆｡ Chrissy's eyes absolutely lit up at the present. "You didn't have to get me anything," she nearly whispered out, taking the package from Barbie's hands. But the thought and excitement the woman showed made Chrissy excited to open it. The teen had a small hunch on what it could have been, but the excitement didn't lessen even as the younger carefully unwrapped the paper. (Chrissy had always been the type to make sure wrapping paper was taken off without any tears or rips. As pristine as she could keep it.) "Love-A-Lot Bear," she answered with a bit of aw in her voice, adjusting the little bear's hat. "Oh, I love it a lot," a giggle was evident in her voice at the slight pun. "Thank you. This really just started everything off in such a good spirit!"

KEN CARSON : this is unlogical and does not make any sense!

dolled  gaze  flickers  back  and  forth  between  ken  and  the  smartphone  device  in  her  hands.  while  it  was  true  there  were  more  question  marks  arising  than  definitive  answer,  this  device  seemed  pretty  cool.  hence  why  barbie  had  to  show  @setkenoff.    "  i  get  it,  but  look!  "    she  exclaims,  slender  digits  clicking  on  the  screen  until  she  finally  ended  up  where  she  intended.    "  here!  you  can  see  yourself  in  this!  it's  like  a  mirror.  that  mirrors  you!  "    she's  now  shoving  the  smartphone  near  his  face.  the  app  she  was  trying  to  show  him  was  a  mere  camera,  which  all  smartphones  were  equipped  with.

alas,  barbie  had  no  prior  knowledge  to  such  matters,  but  she  found  this  aspect  too  intriguing  not  to  share  the  news  with  someone  else.  there  were  many  things  that  made  no  sense  out  there  in  the  real  world  —  but  luckily,  some  of  them  she  could  enjoy  nonetheless.  barbie  shifts  her  frame  close  to  ken,  making  a  peace  sign  with  her  free  hand.    "  smile!  "    she  cheered,  ready  to  press  the  button  to  take  a  picture.  who'd  knew  taking  pictures  became  so  easy?  not  this  barbie  for  sure!

and…  snap!  she  took  a  picture  just  by  pressing  a  button.  how  fascinating  is  that?!  she  searches  for  the  funny  button  entitled  gallery  and,  eventually,  shows  him  the  final  product.    "  see!  look  at  us!  we're  in  here  now!  "    index  pointed  at  the  screen.
