A/N this isn't lams I mean it is but it's not the focus
The focus is the Schuyler sisters!!
I got this idea ages ago but, like Mr. Robot, was never motivated enough to make it into a book. I like it tho and I reckon it could be cool :))

Angelica scribbled notes onto her paper as fast as possible, her hand throbbing terribly. She could not hand these papers in late or Mr Paine would have her head on a silver platter.

"Miss Schuyler," Thomas Paine murmured, pushing her office door open a smidge.
"I-I'm done! Done!" She exclaimed, quickly signing off her signature on the bottom before scooping the papers up and slapping them against the desk. She slammed her stapler into the corner and hurriedly approached Thomas with the papers in hand.

"And the other reports?" He spoke smoothly, cocking a brow at her antics.
"Yes! Right here," she scurried back to her desk and began piling pamphlets and documents into her arms, eventually heaving a stack of paper 20cm thick to Thomas Paine.

"Brilliant work once again Miss Schuyler, how do you write like you're running out of time?" He chuckled softly, accepting the papers into his own arms.
"A good friend passed on some tips and tricks," she grinned with a nod.
"Very well, you're off for the day, thank you Ang- Miss Schuyler,"

"My pleasure," Angelica beamed, waiting for the door to close before collapsing in her desk chair and sighing dreamily. Her lustful daze was suddenly cut short by Beyoncé blasting from her phone. She jumped a little in surprise and quickly scooped up her iPhone X.
"Hello-"
"ANGIE!"

Angelica winced at Peggy's crazed screech.
"Jesus christ Pegs what is it?" She frowned as she turned to her computer to close a few tabs.
"Dad's birthday is today!" She exclaimed in a crazed panic.
"I know."

"We have to- you do?" Peggy left her phone for a moment, muffled speaking on the other end buzzed through, Angelica vaguely recognising Eliza's voice.
"Angie we-"
"Forgot. I know. I knew you would forget so I already hired the catering for tonight, don't worry about making decorations just hang up the ones that are ready in my room, I have the cake here in my office fridge, his presents are being delivered to the living room at 3pm pre wrapped ready for his arrival home at 5 sharp."

The line fell dead silent, suddenly being sliced with a sigh of relief from Eliza and Peggy, a satisfied smirk dancing on Angelica's lips. She loved when things went according to plan.

"Angelica you're too good at this, how'd you do it? Last night you were at your computer writing for Paine for 6 hours!" Peggy sighed in amazement, Eliza rushing off to start on the decorations like Angelica had instructed.
"Work," Angelica grinned, logging off her computer and scooping up her handbag.

Peggy rolled her eyes on the other end of the line with a small giggle.
"You really need to tone it down before you over-work yourself,"

"That's impossible Pegs, I've got everything under control," she spoke smoothly, switching the call to her earpiece and focusing her attention on getting the cake.
"I don't know Angie, sometimes it's refreshing to just, loose control,"

--- insert a chapter here of their dad's party, everything micro-managed by Angelica to the tiniest detail so it's perfect ---

Angelica sighed and carefully seated herself in her desk chair, the pale pink walls of her bedroom providing a comfort no other room in this house gave. She knew that it was her room, where it was her way or the highway, and she was in control here. Call her a control freak, she just enjoyed being busy, enjoyed having her hands full, enjoyed seeing the amazed gaze people gave her when she once again came out with a flawless plan and execution.

The small creak of the door opening snapped her out of her daydream and Angelica's head whipped to the side, seeing Peggy peeking in with a cautious grin.
"Hey Ang," she mumbled with a smile.
"Come in Pegs," Angelica smiled warmly, turning her computer on and opening a new document. "Make it quick, I've got work I have to-"
"No you don't," Peggy quickly interrupted.
"I'm sorry what?" Angelica frowned, turning to Peggy quizzically.
"No, you don't, you can make time for your sisters first, work later,"

Angelica bit her lip and glanced at her screen skeptically. This was a one time thing right? She could do this for her sisters, she loved them more than any of her work, anything in this life for the matter.
"Sure, okay, what's up?"
"Follow me," Peggy grinned excitedly, bouncing out and into the hall.

Angelica sighed and stood up slowly, following Peggy with a small chuckle. She sure could get worked up over the smallest things. Peggy skipped ahead before ducking into her bedroom, Angelica coming in after. When she was inside Eliza was already on the floor, surrounded by CDs and cassettes. Who the hell even used CDs or cassettes anymore? Apparently Peggy.
"What is this?" Angelica chuckled, raising a brow at Eliza who was fixated on a guns and roses CD, Paradise City pumping from a UE boom.

"Eliza and I decided that, as much as we love organised know-it-all Angie, maybe it's about time you let loose a little," Peggy grinned, rolling to the floor and opening Spotify on her laptop.
"Oh lord what are you two scheming?" Angelica frowned, studying the girls carefully.
"A new persona!"
"A what?"
"Music videos!"
"Wha- how?"
"It's simple!"
"What's simple?"
"Peggy allow me," Eliza finally cut in with a melodic laugh.

"Angie, we figured that a fun way to help you loosen up would be to make music videos, all we have to do is choose an arti-"
"I don't need to loosen up!" Angelica hissed in offence, crossing her arms tight across her chest.
"Yeah, y-yeah ya do," Peggy giggled, slowly standing up and standing on her tippy toes, crossing her arms to mimic Angelica's pose. "Aw boo I'm Angelica the oldest and the wittiest Schuyler sister I have everything under control work work work!" She sassed, throwing her hand up and clicking her fingers on each 'work'.

"That is so not me." Angelica deadpanned, earning a glare from Eliza and Peggy. "Is it...?"
Both sisters nodded before Peggy launched forward, grabbing Angelica's wrist and ripping her to the floor.
"Come on! This'll be fun! We can get the boys involved and it'll be a cool project for the team," Peggy beamed pleadingly. "Please Angelica?"
"Please Angelica?" Eliza joined in.
"Please please please please please?" Both Eliza and Peggy echoed together, leaning in with their hands clasped together.
"Okay okay I'll do it!" Angelica gave in with a yelp, Eliza and Peggy sharing a high five triumphantly.

"Alright, where do we start?" Angelica muttered reluctantly, sheepishly pushing Metallica and Avril Lavigne albums away with her foot.
"Well let's think, the 2000's had some good stuff, craze-wise," Eliza grinned, selecting a few albums.
"Oh lord."

"Rihanna?"
"Too raunchy," Angelica frowned.
"Rihanna? Raunchy?" Peggy scoffed.
"Have you even listened to her songs? Skin?" Angelica hissed, shivering a little.
"Fair enough, what about Destiny's Child? All three of us could-" Eliza beamed before Peggy cut her off.
"Not crazy enough," She grinned evilly.

"Shakira?" Eliza grinned with a small body roll. "Her hips don't li-ie!"
"No." Angelica snapped, earning a laugh from Eliza and Peggy. "Why can't I do Beyoncé?" She frowned.
"You already are a Beyoncé, powerful and hard working, we need you to loosen up, go crazy!" Peggy sighed, shaking her hair out of it's ponytail with a giggle.
"Brittany." Eliza smirked.
"Eliza, no." Angelica hissed, slowly beginning to laugh as she shuffled through the albums herself.

"Katy Perry?" Eliza shrugged.
"I'm not making out with either of you." Angelica scrunched up her face in disgust, earning a laugh from Peggy.
"Avril Lavigne?"
"Peggy was the one with an emo phase not me," Angelica smirked, just waiting for her to react to the trigger.
"It's not emo it's pop punk!" There it is.

"Missy Elliot!"
"I can rap... but her language is foul." Angelica frowned, scratching the back of her neck sheepishly.
"I'VE GOT IT!" Peggy almost screamed, causing Eliza and Angelica to jump.

"What? Who?" Eliza gasped eagerly.
"Pink."

The girls shared a few glances between them.
"I mean, it is my signature colour, and her music is fun, isn't too slutty," Angelica slowly started to nod along.
"Is the perfect amount of crazy!" Peggy grinned, clapping her hands together.
"Let's do it."
