"there you go." katy chuckled softly, grabbing her paint brushes to dip them in the water. "so, now the true question is what do you want to eat for lunch? i'm not really that picky, honestly. i eat whatever." growing up with an older brother and a lot of boy cousins, katy usually would eat whatever she could grab.
" i'm good with anything. probably some simple like sandwiches or something ? " luke suggested with a small shrug. " or burgers. can't ever go wrong with a good burger. you can have the final pick , though — i'm not picky either. " luke moved to start working and instantly found it refreshing to be able to work while having someone to talk to. it didn't feel so lonely , which he appreciated. if he'd been picked up the job and worked solo , he would've felt so alone. which he wasn't completely against sometimes , but he supposed he was just complicated in that sense.
Closed starter ⟶ Jeremy Gilbert ( @bluefl4mes )
The fan was a welcome reprieve, cool air crashing over heated skin. A damp towel lay haphazardly around the nape of her neck as she faces the fan. Nesta's eyes briefly close to soak in the fresh breeze after a strenuous work out of her own making. One she exerts with a forceful mind, an attempt to block out the world. It never truly helps. Yet, she remains a frequent visitor of the local gym. The grunts and groans of others bettering themselves like a soundtrack that she could deafen herself to. It meant she wasn't alone, not when someone else was sweating blood and tears along with her.
Grasping the water bottle with unsteady palms, taking a swig as her eyes roam the place she now calls home. Finally capping the bottle as a smirk takes the place of exhaustion. Only Jeremy Gilbert can become a distraction that was unsurprising but gladly appreciated. Replacing the ache of screaming muscles with refreshing temptation within her bones. Heaving herself forward, towards the direction she's become familiar with over time for one reason or another. Certainly not for someone. " Hey there, stranger. What's a girl got to do to get some service around here? Seriously, negative five stars on Yelp. "
it wasn't too much of a hassle to attempt to settle back into his normal lifestyle upon remembering what he actually did for a living. if anything , his job at the fitness center was something he did enjoy. not to mention , it helped him blend in to the various groups of people that came in and out daily. it wasn't like a switch suddenly flipped after remembering he was a hunter , but it was enough for him to be even more aware of his surroundings and to what people were doing. and he'd also be lying if he said he hadn't come across a few people he'd grown to like.
speak of the devil. a small chuckle escaped , a lopsided grin starting to form as he turned to face nesta. " ah , come on. show some mercy. " the teasing came easy at this point and jeremy found himself looking forward to the other's company. " who knew you could be so cruel ? negative five stars is a punch in the gut , archeron. and here , i thought you liked me. " he'd made his way over towards her to keep from disturbing anyone else. " what can i do to help you ? "
brick by brick, steve was pulling down the walls harry thought he had so perfectly built, and it was incredibly frustrating. he was a stubborn man raised by perhaps the most stubborn man in the world, and while every instinct in his brain was screaming at him to leave, he found himself physically unable to move. as if he was planted in place, unwilling to actually end things between them despite his best intentions.
harry supposed an ' i don't know ' was better than a no, but it still wasn't exactly comforting. couldn't steve see the heartbreak he was trying to spare them ? walking away now would be far easier than it would be once they were back in their own worlds. " steve . . . " harry's voice sounded almost pained. it was always going to be far more complicated than just wanting to be together, but what was the point in lying anymore ? so he took a deep breath and answered.
" yeah. yeah . . . i do. it's just not that easy. " it was becoming increasingly more difficult for harry to maintain eye contact, eyes occasionally wandering across the room before landing back on steve. maybe what they had was worth whatever heartbreak might ensue. " but if you're saying you're still willing to try, maybe . . . maybe i can be, too. "
perhaps steve had convinced himself there was no changing harry's mind , that anything and everything he was saying would ultimately be pointless. but he also knew if he let harry walk out of his door without saying what he needed to say , he'd only regret it in the end. would he end up regretting practically begging harry not to leave ? he supposed only time would tell on that one , but harry osborn was worth fighting for — in every sense and in every aspect.
" that's ... that's all i'm asking for. for you to try. for us to try. " because they were worth it. in steve's eyes , they were worth every fight , every obstacle. because when they were together in each other's arms , safe from the rest of the world that would want to break them apart , things were comfortable. but steve knew they couldn't just hide from the world either — that wasn't their game.
" i love you , you know ? " it'd gotten so easy to say that , but it was probably the first time since their memories came back where steve looked into harry's eyes and said those three words. " my feelings for you haven't changed and they won't change. " god , harrington , you're such a fucking sap , reel it back a little ! " i mean , i've kinda gotten used to having you around at this point. "
"so, i have noticed. a friend of mine mentioned his sister came to the city and didn't remember anything about him or the life they had before." diego hummed, giving the other a nod. that certainly was odd, to either remember both sides of your life or to only know the fake one. He was kind of glad to know both sides now. "So far I've seen you and klaus, they remembered me too, so that was good." He added. "I do, yeah. at least, it seems like I do. haven't tried to throw anything recently."
five had to hold back making a comment about being proud diego made a friend sarcastically. if anything , he shouldn't have been surprised — he was the one who didn't do friends so easily. besides , there was more important things at hand. " i've seen klaus too. " at least five hadn't missed any of their other siblings around. or at least , assuming they both weren't missing anything else , which was possible. " yeah , i have my powers too. which is fucking weird , you know , considering. " he figured diego would get what he was referring to.
lisa shrugged. what witchcraft meant then and what it meant now were very different things. she didn’t have anything to hide. “by witchcraft i mean i was a healer, i wasn’t actually summoning satan or anything.”
just married someone from hell is all…
“there are different kinds of witch hunts now.” lisa sighed. “the ones that tell woman how they should be, and if they don’t comply they ridicule them. not quite the burning-at-the-stake sensation i experienced, but a witch hunt all the same.” another sigh. the world had changed so much since her time, and at the same time not at all. “don’t mind me. one could ramble all day about the state of the world, but that’s no way to be. at any rate, at least the conditions have improved, if not needing a little tweaking.”
hope couldn't help but furrow her brows in confusion towards the other. sure , she knew her fair share of witches that focused solely on healing , but the question still remained — " so you were burned at the stake for healing people ? " unfortunately , she knew all too well that some people just didn't seem to trust witches , no matter how good they seemed to come off. hope simply shrugged , " if you're going to ramble , i at least appreciate it's something interesting. i'm a witch , myself. " not just a witch , but they didn't need to dwell on that for the time - being. " and i spent the majority of my life at a boarding school for the supernatural. guess it was nice to be around others with powers , but at the same time , it kind of stamped an outcast sticker right on our foreheads to the rest of the town , you know ? "
T.K couldn't understand that, actually. Being overwhelmed was usually a constant state for the man. "there you go, i think that it is okay to not know what to do with your life. I had a little crisis when my dad first moved us to texas. i thought i had chosen the wrong field but it turns out, i didn't. maybe you could see what you like to do, and think about which one you would want to do as a job." tk suggested. "i'd probably go in for medicine, just to sharpen my skills a bit more." although, personally, t.k could see himself becoming a doctor.
" hm , the only thing i'm really good at is swimming. and volleyball. and i kinda feel like those are more hobbies than anything else. " for her , anyway. she would love to be able to turn those sports into an actual career , but she wasn't sure if that was in the cards for her. " i thought about going into giving swimming lessons or something , but i don't know. " if anyone would take me seriously. but she decided that was better left unsaid for the time - being. " i guess there's just so much pressure to go to college out of high school and then find a job and know what you wanna do for the rest of your life. it's just so overwhelming thinking about it. "
"Really? Oh thats amazing " She smiled. A laughter erupted from Betty when Belly said to blame her. "I wont let you go down alone but thank you." She exhaled a breath of relief. "Its nice to meet you and honestly... I could really use some company." She felt her shoulders untigthen from the stress she had been holding in back in riverdale most people kept to themselves especially with everything that had happened. "Its a deal." She picked up part of the kayak. "I think i still have some headband flashlights in my jacket in case we need them."
maybe it had been a little bit on the impulsive side , but maybe that was precisely what belly needed more of in her life. while she wasn't complaining , her life was ... a little predictable. had been ever since she was young. but she liked that — she liked knowing what was going to happen. she didn't like the unknown. but that didn't mean she had to be against doing something fun just for the sake of it every once in a while , right ? she'd already managed to talk herself into it , regardless. " you happen to have headband flashlights ? you sure are prepared. "
" i'm gonna be so pissed off if we die. " ( jeremy & yelena ) @bluefl4mes
"die? oh, don't be so silly, tsk," yelena said to the other rolling her eyes. "it's just a house. you don't believe in ghosts, do you?" yelena had been surprised she had even been able to convince the other to come with her to explore the abandoned house. "besides, you're with me. i'll protect you, don't worry," she joked, nudging him.
perhaps he was being dramatic. it wasn't like he actually thought he was going to die or anything , but spending his day at some abandoned house ? definitely not in his plans , but he supposed he'd go along with it. considering he was already here and all. yelena definitely caught him on a good day , otherwise he probably wouldn't have even bothered to agree coming. " what , you don't believe in ghosts ? there's more out there than we know , " he pointed out with a shrug , a hint of teasing to his tone. " i gotta ask — was there a reason you brought me here ? "
this was not at all how he'd planned for this conversation to go. harry was supposed to show up, apologize for the mess they'd found themselves in, and leave steve sooner rather than later. he knew it would only be more painful to separate the longer they waited, so he'd spent weeks working himself up to it. did he want to break up ? no. but he couldn't risk steve becoming too involved in his life. it would only lead to heartbreak for both of them.
but all of these plans had been made without even an ounce of consideration for steve and his feelings. knowing that steve didn't actually want to return to hawkins . . . changed things. and it seemed like he was willing to fight for their relationship, for them — and honestly, it was super hot. harry's resolve had grown weaker throughout the duration of their conversation, and he was finally letting himself imagine what life together, outside of ivy cove, could be like. nobody had ever loved harry osborn as much as steve harrington did, and it took until now for harry to let himself believe it.
" but would you come with me ? to new york ? or around the world whenever my schedule demands it ? " he felt guilty even asking, but steve was actually pushing back. he wasn't letting harry leave that easily. " and would you be happy ? " his voice had grown hoarse with emotion. things were never going to be easy for them once they stepped into the real world. they'd be watched, followed, and judged. the osborn heir just hadn't let himself consider that somebody might still choose to stay.
was steve pushing his luck ? maybe. he knew this , but he couldn't stop. if there was a chance that harry was going to walk out of his life right then and there , steve wasn't going to hold back — he'd say what he needed to say and show harry how much he loves him. the past few weeks had already been tough enough as it was. not only were their plans put on hold , but time apart was almost painful. but that had always been part of steve's problem. he was independent in instances such as being able to live on his own without his parents or fighting monsters , but when it came to the people he held close , he was so ridiculously dependent.
being apart felt wrong , but at least it wasn't completely over. steve could fool himself into thinking things could be okay. why the hell didn't he just go to sleep at a normal hour like a normal person ? but the problem was : he'd still get up for harry all the same. which led them right back to where they were.
" i don't know , " steve admitted with a sigh. it was all just a little too overwhelming to say the least. new york city was never something steve thought was in the cards for him. neither was following any form of busy schedule. " i don't know , harry , okay ? but i — i'd at least try to make it work. because i'm always happy when i'm with you. " he hoped that didn't sound as pathetic as it sounded in his mind , but it was the truth and now ? he had to go all in with the honesty now.
" do you want to be with me ? " steve asked , turning to face harry head on. he could swear his hands were shaking a little , but he ignored that and could only hope it wasn't too noticeable , which he was sure it wasn't. hopefully. " for however long we're here — or if we have to make plans in new york city. or somewhere else. or anything the future holds. do you — would you want to be with me ? "
"Then why bring it up?" that didn't seem to make a lot of sense to him, though people here really did seem to do strange things. Perhaps left overs from whatever their pasts had been, but it seemed kind of headache inducing to him. "Forcing who exactly, no one claims to know anything" funny really, there had to be someone who knew something, though right now they were all claiming ignorance. "Not especially, but then some of us really are just from here".
@bluefl4mes
" why not ? " was there really a rhyme or reason to anything hope did ? probably not , but she didn't like dwelling on that so much. " you really believe no one knows anything ? " could be the case , she supposed , but she didn't believe it. someone , somewhere , surely knew something about this place. but she supposed it also didn't mean much if she had nowhere to even start looking. " are you ? from here , i mean. " she couldn't help but ask , curious of those who thought that.

"I was trying to think of something clever to say, but I am afraid I have lost it." Max admitted with a nod. Getting his memories back had been an interesting experience for him, and that was putting it kindly. Even if he didn't mind that he had two different lives now, the one he had in Ivy Cove was very boring compared to being a damn superhero from a superhero family. "I need to get my brain back on focus. It's just everywhere."
" we all have those days , " she assured , gaze shifting towards the other curiously. sure , some more than others , but hope figured she'd at least try to be ... somewhat approachable. now that ivy cove wasn't as bad as she originally thought when she first regained her memories , she supposed she wasn't so against it anymore. part of her wondered if that meant having to actually converse with people , but she supposed it couldn't hurt. " but i'll bite. why exactly do you think you've lost it ? " and maybe she was also just curious about basically everything.
Closed starter ⟶ Luke Crain ( @bluefl4mes )
The lack of stone walls sends an icy grasp down her spine every time she roams this land. No more slinking around in the darkness which was ever suffocating. Freedom. Blessing the Lord of Light for the day as she drifts through the town once more. Eyes darkened with intrigue and possibilities. “ Good day, my lord. “ greeting the nearest stranger. Tracing his features to memory, a skill inducted during years of servitude. One never knows when someone will be of use. “ I’ve lost my way, you see. “
roaming around the streets with a sketchbook in one hand and a cup of tea in the other probably made him look somewhat of a maniac as he attempted to maneuver around in his 6'3" stature. it was probably nearly impossible for people not to look his way , but he simply kept his head down as he walked , not liking any unnecessary attention. so , it was safe to say he was slightly caught off guard when someone spoke up. were they talking to him ? he turned to face where the voice was coming from , curiosity filling his gaze. " oh. uh , yeah. where are you headed ? i can try to help , " he offered with a small smile. " but you can just call me luke. "
caroline nodded her head at his comment "it's a very good thing that we have good reflexes" she responded with a chuckle, she was happy that she had her order still in her hands. caroline looked around the pair and back at the male, she heard him respond to his name being called and let out a small breath. caroline knew that some of the people in town had forgotten some of their lives, she turned her head to the side slightly "jeremy gilbert?" she asked and looked into the others eyes "we have."
as soon as the blonde stated his full name , part of him was definitely getting curious and perhaps a little suspicious. mostly because he had no clue who she was and he normally excelled at remembering everything. there was no sense in playing it off that that wasn't his name , considering he'd already admitted it was jeremy. " when exactly have we met ? " he opted to ask instead.

"I had another Liam Neeson nightmare. I kidnapped his daughter and he just wasn't having it. It was weird because I don't even know if it was a person. The image I kept seeing was some strange, faceless person." Wade admitted. "What do you think that dream could mean?"
" i think that means you've lost it , " jeremy responded , his tone neutral , almost dull. jeremy wasn't a stranger to random conversation , but this ? it had to be top five weirdest topics he'd ever had to engage in. it wasn't anything jeremy was particularly interested in , but something about the other intrigued him — in a weird way. " or you've watched one too many movies before you sleep. or you're looking to kidnap someone , but i'll pretend it won't be the latter. "
" shut up, " harry said with an eyeroll, playful despite the gravity of the conversation they were having. steve's personality meshed so well with his because of how different they were. despite his public persona, harry often became so lost in his own mind that he'd forget to enjoy the little things in life. walks in the park together. dates night at their favorite diner. cracking jokes whenever it began to feel tense. it was something harry appreciated about their relationship — and one of the many things he was certain he'd miss.
ouch. he'd already lost pet name privileges. pulling his hand away and crossing his arms over his chest, harry took a moment to contemplate exactly what steve was implying. somehow, it hadn't even crossed harry's mind that he could accept his current situation and not rush back to his real life. he simply wasn't wired to think that way. " are you saying you'd prefer living here over hawkins ? " it was a question he wasn't willing to address himself because the answer was obvious. ivy cove had teased him by showing him what a normal, fulfilling life could look like. it showed him what it was like to be happy.
but it was time to accept the reality of the situation. they would, hopefully, be able to leave ivy cove someday ; it was only a matter of time. " i've already told you, i don't want to leave, i — " say it. why couldn't he just say it ? " i just need to go home, steve. and i don't want to ask you to leave your entire life — both of them, actually — behind for me. " harry still didn't know a lot about steve's life in hawkins, but he saw how deeply he cared for the friends he had back home. it was something they shared in common.
" do you still . . . " a soft sigh fell from his lips. " would you still even want to be with me once we make it out here ? "
steve was impulsive. not always , but when it came to matters of the heart , his relationships and friendships , he was. as soon as harry's hand pulled away , he regretted what he'd said. wait , no , come back. i didn't mean it , you know i didn't mean it. instead , he kept his mouth shut and brought his hands to rest on the couch next to where he sat. it probably looked borderline sad and pathetic. he was only snapped out of his thoughts when harry continued , reminding steve that they were indeed in the middle of a conversation , if it could even be called that. if harry was going to break up with him , then do it already.
" — yes. i ... if i had the choice , i'd choose here in a heartbeat. " steve would always have a soft spot for hawkins , but as the town he remembered growing up , not the one overrun with monsters. perhaps it was selfish of him , because he did leave people he cared about behind. if he ever went back , it'd be for them , he supposed. but some of those he cared about were here already , so he would only hope everyone would get the chance to get away from hawkins eventually.
" but on the chance that we ... get out , " he started , pausing shortly at how strange that sounded. get out made it seem like they were trapped here , but here had been nothing but ... a nice change of pace. a breath of fresh air. " even if we do , i want us to be together. " was he getting too clingy ? " you're the best thing that's ever happened to me , harry , and i — i don't want to lose you. "

"I need to figure out what I am going to do with my life in this place." Fizzaroli admitted with a soft sigh. "Back in Hell, I was one of the best performers but I was also an imp and a clown. I don't really know if I want to be a clown now that I am human again. What do you think? How do you find what you are qualified to do?"
probably not the best question to ask someone who spent all day locked up in the archive room of the library , but if there was anything that caught five's attention , it was the fact that the other mentioned hell ? and coming back from hell ? interesting. the entire conversation was a bit odd , but he'd bite. " if you were one back in hell , why can't you be a performer here ? " he inquired , brows furrowing in curiosity , hoping to get more clarification about what they meant.
