northless: (everything stops and holds me there)

[Ten things about Robb Stark that may or may not be incredibly obvious off the bat:

1. He's a dirty hipster.
2. No, seriously. Has a playlist full of folk and indie music and everything.
3. He lives ten minutes away from his family home.
4. He's twenty-nine, nearing thirty, and he still sleeps around.
5. He has a ton of emotional baggage from a past life.
6. He also has a fear of commitment and PTSD. Reincarnation: not all it's cracked up to be. He can testify to that.
7. He knows that weddings = great place to meet someone. Never mind that most of the time it's one of his (many) exes getting married. Never mind that seeing them getting married hurts.
8. And never mind that a part of him wants to try again.
9. Since graduating from college, he's had a string of jobs, all of them not really paying much, so most of the time he's working at least two.
10. He got laid off from both jobs this week.

The last item is why he's currently looking around. It's a day before he has to pay his rent, and he is exactly twenty dollars short. No one's looking back, so he just inches closer till he nears the fountain's edge.

Then he rolls up his sleeves and starts not-so-discreetly taking coins and stuffing them in his pocket. Just twenty dollars, really--he'll compensate. At some point. As soon as he gets a job again. Or two. Or three. But really, he'll make up for it.]
