Maria grinned when she saw Tyler at the carnival and walked over. “How are you?” She asked. “Have you recovered from your little drunken adventure with me the other day? And would you be ready for a slightly tamer part two? Adrien’s at the bar. That boy makes good mixed drinks.” 

@adaptativetyler

Oh God. He was not ready for a round two. Last time was already bad as it was, he didn’t need that to happen too often. “I was actually here to...” Tyler started, but cut himself short. Desiree was right, it probably wasn’t his sister, and he certainly didn’t need a founder to mingle with that. “Guess I can join you. But more moderately this time.”

[adaptativetyler-blog]

Why did he come? He was not welcome here, he felt like he never would. But he figured that maybe, if he showed and tried to fit in, it would be better? Still, Tyler was wandering around the carnival quite lonely. Until he saw flaming hair, quite familiar. “Desiree.” Without waiting more, he started pushing his way through the crowd until he could reach her. “Desiree, wait up!”

This guy didn’t seem like he was lying, but that wasn’t going to mean she would trust him any more. She had just met him not that long ago and Elena hadn’t really ever mentioned a brother, but it had been twenty years so maybe her mom never told her. Or maybe she just doesn’t remember Elena ever talking about it when she really did. Desiree’s lips went into a thin line as she took in a breath. “I don’t know, we might not even be thinking of the same Elena, and if we are and you’re lying, I’d rather not make her feel uncomfortable that some guy is claiming to be her brother.” They did look a little alike, but even her and Dimitri looked like more than cousins and there were tons of people out there who weren’t related and looked exactly alike. “Do you at least know her last name?”

The more the other spoke, the more he could feel his hopes and dreams crumbling. It was over, he’d never be able to find her. Even if he did, what were the chances she’d remember him, or even want to know him? She was still so young when she left, there was no way she remembered him. “Maybe... maybe I followed the wrong Elena.” Suddenly, that possibility grew on him. But Tyler really thought it was her, although he also knew she didn’t keep the same surname, and it could be quite possibly anything. “Oaks. Well... not anymore. The one I tracked uses Richmond. But her real name is Oaks.”

Desiree crossed her arms over her chest as she listened to him, nodding along to ensure him that she was listening. Her lips curled into a small frown as he went on. It sounded terrible. She wouldn’t know what she would do if she lost a brother or sister for that long and finally found them so many years later. She was about to say something until he said her name and her words got caught in her throat. Elena? This guy had to be lying now. Or completely confused. “Nope, never heard of her.” She regretted saying that as soon as she said it because now she was curious. “Fuck, okay, I have,” in fact they hung out quite a bit, but he didn’t need to know that. “but how do I know you’re telling the truth?” 

The look on his face went from deception to confusion quite fast as she spoke. Did she just try to hide it from him? And if she did, he wanted to know her reasoning. But she did have a point: why would she trust him? He was just a random guy who showed up, of course, he’d imagine people would be uncertain about trusting his words. “I guess I don’t have any proof to give you.” Maybe family pictures, but none of them would really be recognizable. “But if you must, you could... ask her about her brother.”

thelastmythbender:

She crossed her arms over her chest, tilting her head to the side a bit with a small smile. “Dude, I have all the time in the world. I think I can listen to a long story.” She gestured to a table nearby. “Come on, lets sit down and you can tell me about this person on your mind. Who knows, maybe I will be able to help you out.” Not that she really wanted to, but the guy seemed like he really wanted to find whoever it was and that somewhat made her want to help him out. She didnt have anything better to do anyways. 

Tyler looked at the girl for a moment, unsure he was ready to talk about it. But it had been nearly two decades now, and one day or another, he’d have to open up about it. At it seemed it was that day, as he finally decided to sit. “I... have a sister. But she left, with my mom, almost twenty years ago.” His eyes wandered to the ground for a moment. “No news, contact, or anything. Until a few months ago, when I discovered she might’ve joined this place.” And it only seemed logical she did, since he heard about the possible charges against her. “Her name’s Elena, maybe you’ve met her?”

Truth or Dare ( CARNIVAL STYLE )

Send my muse a truth and a dare ( relating to the carnival ). If they refuse to answer truthfully to the question, then I will post a starter of my muse doing the dare.

[adaptativetyler-blog]

Luke, Elena, Tyler, and Arwen

❝ Sorry, ❞ Luke apologised, ❝ I didn’t mean to scare you. ❞ He was making his way around the compound, introducing himself to the latest wave of mutants who had found their way to them. At least that was what he was trying to do, so far all he had managed to do was give one of them a near heart attack. Grabbing a ratty old dish cloth from one of the cupboard draws, he began cleaning up the other mutants spilled coffee. ❝ If you need a spare change of clothes I can probably find you something. ❞

Tyler gave a small wave of his hand o brush away to the apology. “It’s fine. I’m just... nervous.” When did he become so nervous? maybe when he deserted the Sentinels, that meant to give him a lot of stress. In any case, that was who he was now, and it was better than being that cold, emotionless soldier he was for the past few years. “Don’t worry about it. I don’t really feel anything, anyway.”

Ari’s eyes widened when she spotted the man with the cup of coffee and immediately rushed up to him, leaning down and getting a little too close to his face. “Hey, where’d you get that?” she suddenly asked. She narrowly managed to dodge his head when he jumped up and bit her bottom lip to keep herself from laughing at the mess she somewhat caused. After she was able to force down her laugh, she reached for some nearby napkins and handed them to him. “Sorry about that. I was just excited to see coffee. I was beginning to think all of the people here are just naturally this energetic and that’s more scary than the idea of government agencies coming after me.” They weren’t technically after her but she knew how the government worked. Once she stepped foot inside the Underground compound, they were going to label her a terrorist regardless of what she did afterward. 

His eyes glanced between both her and the coffee for a moment. Clearly, he was in no urge to wipe off the liquid. “It’s, uh... from the kitchen. Found some there.” Well, he did have to search a lot before finding it, but there certainly was some there. Not the best coffee either, but better than nothing. “It’s... don’t worry about it. Are you sure you need coffee? You already seem energetic enough.” Still, he grabbed the napkins and started trying to get the coffee off his clothes. That wasn’t going to work, of course, but still better than nothing.

sonicnoah:

Noah’s hand instinctively pressed against the large, ugly scar running down the side of her neck. It felt like her throat had been cut open again. Truth be told, she had never expected to see him again. They were after all on the opposites of the death sentence on her and everyone else hiding in this debris. And now that he was standing there, she wasn’t sure what to do, especially when her brain was fighting itself. She was very much a ‘that’s none of my business’ person when it came to everything but Tyler meant trouble for everyone, didn’t he? And then there was the part of her that had once lo — cared for him.

“So? I doubt it would make this harder on you. Y’know, send all these people away to fuck knows where. Pretend we’re dangerous when all we want is to live.” Noah wasn’t innocent by any means, she had blood on her hands that she couldn’t wash away no matter how hard she tried, but she knew that the majority of these people were. So it seemed like the right thing to do, to keep them safe. Or she was just trying to protect herself. “You could’ve turned me in but you didn’t so I’ll give you the chance to leave. Now.”

Tyler knew that by coming here, he would meet mutants from his past. It was meant to happen. And with that, he just knew the truth would end up surfacing. But before it did, before everyone discovered he used to be a Sentinel, he wanted to make a name for himself there. He wanted to find his place, to be accepted by them. Maybe it’d be easier for them to accept his past once they knew he was with them.

But he had overlooked that some of them could easily threaten to tell the truth. “I’m not here to take anyone. Not when they’re after me now.” He started before taking a short pause. Saying the whole reason why he was there was the right thing to do, was it? “I don’t work for them anymore. I can’t work for them, not when I’m not one of them. Noah, I’m... I’m like you.” He’d accepted this, but it was the first time he said it out loud, leading the words to get caught in his throat.

thelastmythbender:

“I can understand why. It seems really confusing.” She let out a sigh, pursing her lips and trying to think of what it could be, but she had no luck. She barely knew him so trying to figure out something for him would be hard. “Is that the only thing bother you? Maybe there is something else that is causing all of this. You’re new right? Is there maybe something you’re trying to do here? Or maybe you’re just having the weird dream or whatever it is because you’re knew. Still afraid of being caught possibly??” Though everyone was probably scared of that.

Tyler gave a small nod, biting his lips. Oh, there was a lot on his mind. Not only his sister, but the fact there were mutants here that strictly knew him as a Sentinel, and that meant no good. But that was one thing he’d rather not share with her. “There is something, well... someone else on my mind. It’s a long story.” It wasn’t that long, what else was there to say than his sister disappeared and he just discovered she was here?

“I guess that’s true! It’s not the same as just setting a fire and trying to control it. I have to focus on creating it to begin with. I wasn’t always able to do it on purpose. The first time was definitely an accident,” she said shrugging. “What can you do?”

“That sounds... hard. But I feel like everyone’s first time was an accident.” Actually, he couldn’t really remember what his first time was. It just seemed he always had it, without realizing, so it would just... happened every single day. “Nothing really special.” He answered with a shrug.

“Nothing about that was a compliment but at least you admit it.”

“Oh. Well, I was starting to run out of excuses.”

“Philosophical and drunk don’t go well together.” Maria said, moving to lay on the floor. “But that’s okay. Philosophical looks cute on you.” 

“I realize that.” He said, but his thoughts were interrupted by her last comment. “It looks... what? No, I’m not...” He mumbled, shaking his head quickly.

thelastmythbender:

Desiree was quiet as she listened to the other speak. She hadn’t known him very well yet, but she had talked to him a couple times now and agreed to listen to him. Her lips were in a small frown as he spoke, trying to figure out exactly how this had happened. It sounded like it could definitely be real, but Tyler didn’t seem too sure which it had been. She wasn’t quite sure what to say and at first all that came out was a simple Wow. She then shook her head and stood up straight. “Were you ever able to find out if someone was there? Or is that all you remember?”

A small shrug shook his shoulder. As much as he tried to remember, there was so much in his mind now. It was just a giant mess, and making any sense of it seemed impossible. And as much as this memory - or dream, whatever it was - was clogging his mind, the thought his sister was here, and so close, was taking over everything. It was such a shame he couldn't seem to find her. “I can’t remember. It’s just... so confusing.”

elliexjones:

 “Oh, thank goodness, I’m so glad that you missed that. I’m still working on the whole not accidentally burning things when I make fire,” she smiles at him. “Nothing too bad, just some burnt grass.” She was pretty sure that he had seen at least part of it, but she appreciated his lying, the situation was embarrassing enough as it was. 

“Well... I suppose it can’t be that easy to control fire? Can’t really blame yourself.” Not that he could tell. His power wasn’t something he could really control, it just happened, like a defence mechanism. He almost prefered it that way, though, since a lot seemed to struggle when it came to control.

“Dude, you have a very particular voice and haircut. And I have night vision so… it was you.”

“I... don’t know if that’s a compliment or not.” Tyler replied, almost instantly looking at the ground. “Fine, it was me.”

Farrah had finally been feeling awake and more energetic for once since the explosion. She had already had her coffee and she was prepared to get back to work whether that meant going down to clean up some of the reckage, more work in the room, or helping the few still injured that needed help. However, her plans were cut short when she walked past and took a look into the room he had been sitting in. Doing a quick double take as she walked by, she stood in the doorway and looked over the man in the corner of the room. No way. She knew that face, and it only took her a moment to place where she knew it from. Taking a step into the room, she made her way a little closer to the male. Even after seven years, he still looked practically the same. “Tyler?” She hadn’t known the other very long when she was back working for Sentinel Services, but they had talked a bit through the few months they had worked together. She jumped a bit as he spilled his coffee at the sudden sound of her voice. “Oh, shit. I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to startle you.”

Still being new around here, he didn’t expect anyone to know his name, which surprised him even more. It was actually quite surprised he didn’t just drop the damn mug and was still tightly holding it. But the mug wasn’t what mattered in this moment, and it wasn’t long until he peeked up, actually quite curious to see who it was. The voice did sound vaguely familiar, and when he saw her face, it all clicked. It took some time before Tyler could say something, a shocked expression stuck on his face. “Farrah?” Well, that was one person he didn’t expect to see again, although it did seem logical to find her here. Breaking from his original surprise, his gaze looked down at the mug, then the spilt coffee, and back at her. “Hum, yeah, it’s fine. Don’t worry about that.”
