[sorry digi crashed]

*The beach (apparently, after a google search), is located at the very southern point of the city. There are beach resorts, cafe's, ice cream bars, you name it, along the waterfront. Luckily, there are not many people out there at this time of the night, because Tasha looks like she is not plannign to hit the breaks for anyone. She even uses the opportunity to bounce the fine mercedes up the ground, using the speed-bumps as ramps to lift them up. She herself appears totally cool, and fine with breaking the vehicle.*
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 12:22:02 PM)
(wb)
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:23:40 PM)
*Danny sat back in the seat and watched her drive the car. He had already outfitted it with a racing suspension and didn't seem too worried. In fact her attempts to break his car made him laugh.* Are you angry with me or my car or something? *He chuckled.* Cause you seem to want to beat it against the ground.
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:25:10 PM)
[thanks!]
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 12:27:49 PM)
Sounds like an idea. *she say casually and twists the geartick at her side before turnign the wheel and runnign the car down to the beach. She does a big circle in the sand, to make sure to leave her mark, and then continues straight along the water edge.* It's how I am. I mess things up. *she says with an almost regretful tone* You could say I even enjoy it sometimes...
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:31:26 PM)
What makes you say that Tasha? What have you done that's so horrible hmmmm? *He sat there looking at her, forgetting her wild driving, his eyes just stayed fixed on her face.* Because you haven't messed up anything around me yet, so you tell me. What is it that eats you up inside so much?
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 12:36:34 PM)
*Keeps the car running alogn the beach, further away from the waterfront shops and the lights and welcoming the blue of night ahead.* Nah, it's just how I am, not what I do or have done. *she shurgs, holdign her hands on the wheel* I don't know... it's just that...when you care about things it feels like everything is your fault if something happens, you know? Or if things don't go the way you want. *she glances to him* Not everyone is born a go-getter.
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:40:35 PM)
*He chuckles.* Don't I know it, but that doesn't mean you should stop. Your not gonna stop that fear of things going wrong, or hurting like that. You can close yourself off from the world, or you can find one or two good things and latch onto them. Doesn't have to be big, just something that makes you happy even a little. For me it's the guitar, late nights playing in the park is how I get by.
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 12:43:51 PM)
Yeah, it must be..*she starts, but then stops, without speakgin further. She glances at him again, and gives him a soft hint of a smile to fade away what sh was about to say. Then she rolls the wheel around acouple of times, to bring them to a sideway stop.*
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:46:11 PM)
*He smirked* Something on your mind Tasha? Don't hold back on me now. *He let his belt slip free as she stopped the car. Turning to more fully face her, his eyes simply dropped upon hers as he spoke.* I wouldn't want to feel as if your're pulling your punches. *He winked at her and leaned back against the door.*
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 12:47:27 PM)
Nah, you know I'm just going to scowld you and the silver spoon you've been licking all your life. And honestly, I don't even mean to do that. *She pulls the key out of the hole, and hands it over to him* Thanks. It was fun.
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:49:47 PM)
You looked like you needed to cut loose. *He took the key and nodded.* And I like my silver spoon, it doesn't mean I don't know how hard it is to get by. *He opened the door with a smile, enjoying the banter back and forth.* Besides, I think if you stopped scowlding me, I might get the idea that you like me.
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 12:53:15 PM)
Sure I like you Danny. Who wouldn't? *she pushes her door open and steps out. She looks around at the sandy beach that continues to both directions, between the dark growth on land and the open waters.*
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:54:59 PM)
*He laughed and took in the emptiness of it all. He kicked his shoes and socks off, putting them in the car and went barefoot in the sand.* You'ld be surprised at that Tasha. There's probably a pretty long list of people who don't like me, but that's their issue, not mine.
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 12:57:19 PM)
*puts her hands into her pockets, and strols casually closer to the waterline. She holds her chin high, so that the light breeze over te waters push her hair back, and looks like she was sniffing the air. Her eyes are cast towards the lights of the city in the direction they came frm, and for now she remains silent.*
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 12:59:36 PM)
*He walked down to the surf and stood just inside the tidal zone. He let the water roll up around his feet as he watched her walk back and forth. He eyed the neon lights of the far off city and then turned out toward the coastline where there was nothing. His eyes swept back to Tasha, lingering for a moment before dropping down to the little hermit crab that was tring to crawl over his foot.*
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:03:22 PM)
*Pushes the sand out of her way with her shoes as she paces slowly to one direction, the returns back to him. She stops to watch him with his bare feet in the water, and could even look amused, if she was smiling. But she wasn't.* It's nice out here. *she comments casually* Much cooler than in the city.
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:07:41 PM)
Yes, it's also quiet and peaceful. No one to judge you or to even care what you do. *He stepped from the water and walked up the beach away from the city a little. His eyes seemed to scan back and forth till he found what he was looking for. He squatted down and picked up a starfish, looking it over.* It's also nice to share it with someone. Even if that person thinks your a pretentious asshole with too much money. *He looked back over his shoulder at her and could almost be serious if it wasn't for that playful smirk on his lips.*
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:12:14 PM)
*A smirk spreads to her face aswell as she watches him* You'r just like in a children's poem I know, sir. *she says and then loosk up, trying to quik recal it, and then speaks it like she was readign it straight from the book.* "Toffle walks for miles and miles, and comes to sandy beach. He spots a shell -what luck - it is just within his reach. He picks it up and looks at it, it's smooth and white and glad. And yet he cannot quite find out why he would feel so sad."
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:12:34 PM)
"So who will comfort Toffle, persuade him that a shell, is better when there's somebody to show it to aswell." *she adds and looks back down to him, smiling softly*
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:16:04 PM)
*He stood and turned with a smile.* Everything is better when you have someone to share it with Tasha. It's nice to be able to share this peace and serenity with you. *He shrugged and offered the starfish to her as his eyes panned across her face.* And that smile suits you more then any look I have seen you give me.
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:19:04 PM)
*blinks a few times, and takes the starfish with much hesitation. She flips it over a coupe fo times, studying the shape and the alien texture in the dim blue light.* Gee...thanks.. *she says, half astonished, half amused.* I used to read that to my little sister. Night after night. I could die and still remember it all through.
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:19:48 PM)
Just like ifyou work in a fish factory, your hands start doing the cut-tear-throw motion while you sleep.
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:23:53 PM)
*He nodded as he stepped by her with a smile on his face. His hand lightly touched her arm as he passed.* Memory becomes rote and all we remember it. But that smile of yours... *He whispered as he passed.* I'll not get that out of my head either. You should try it more often if you can. *He moved to another starfish, kneeling down to examine it.*
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:25:50 PM)
*She opens her mouth to say something, but again, holds herelf back. She lifts the starfish back close to her face, and examines it carefully with her brow furrowing as she tries to see clearly in the dark.* You do racing? *she finally throws a question at him*
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:27:37 PM)
Yes I do, and if you keep choking back your words, your gonna pop. Keeping it all stored up in there. I enjoy racing, it lets me be free. *He looked back over his shoulder and up at her.*
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:28:44 PM)
It can get you killed pretty quikly too. *she says and tips to put the starfish back to the gound, gently.*
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:31:00 PM)
Yep. *He looks back to the starfish and shrugs.* Sometimes I think that's why I do it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking to die, but the possibility of it... well it makes me feel alive. Skydiving, base jumping, racing, it gets the heart racing and reminds me that blood still beats in these veins.
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:34:45 PM)
You should try wrestling a gator, sometime. *Tasha straightens herself and turn to look at him with another small smirk on her face. Her hands go back into her pockets.* I get what you are saying, though. It must be programmed in us to get kicks out of all that. As strange as it is. *She shrugs lightly and then tilts her head* Some trick played by god...but hen again, you are not very religious, are you?
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:37:35 PM)
[I'll have to answer that question later. I need to take the roomie to work. I'll be back in a couple of hours.]
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:37:53 PM)
[thanks for the RP for now. :)]
Tasha Ribakov (Jul 23, 2011 1:37:54 PM)
((i'll be in bed, but say hi to him for me=) ))
Danny Braxton (Jul 23, 2011 1:38:01 PM)
