valencia.

Valencia was aware that tourist season was coming up. However, she didn’t expect them to be rolling in until a few more weeks. “Makes sense.” replied the huntress. “How convenient, your family won’t have any trouble hitting up the destination spots seeing as it won’t be as crowded as it should be.” A sardonic smirk crept onto the brunette’s lips as she maintained eye contact with the woman. “Hm yeah, I guess I am.” she replied with a shrug. “Although you caught me on a good day, I would have either told you to fuck off and use a map or your phone to search up the nearest bar that served a ‘shot’ or ‘bomb’.” 

“Yes. Convenient.” Cassie echoed, looking over the other intently for the first time. She made an approving noise finding the other attractive, but keeping the fact to herself. “Lucky me catching you on a good day. What else can I get out of you on a good day?”

aseleznyovs.

“Tourist season,” Alexei nodded, seemingly agreeing. In truth he hadn’t been paying much attention overall, to wrapped up in his own world and dealing with his own shit, but it made sense somewhat. “Google Maps is pretty shitty around these parts, yeah. But I grew up here and from what I remember, not a whole lot has changed over the years. And that could either be a very good thing, or a very bad thing. Dealer’s choice I guess?”

“Is it?” She kept that information for later, thinking that was a small favour of God. It meant that if someone went searching, they’d have a hard time finding anything if they didn’t know exactly where they were going. “That seems almost... suffocating.” She’d paused to find a word that she assumed he would respond to well. “And what have you been dealt? It doesn’t sound quite so pleasant.”

“We’ll work on that. Apparently we share that sense of humor, so. Nice to meet you, Luna, what do you do for a living?”

“I travel. I’m kind of self-employed really. Let’s me go wherever I want to, do whatever I want to, leave whenever I want to. It’s nice. And you? Do you live and work here?”

zara.

Zara perked up slightly at the blonde’s question, and she nodded easily. Her dragon was her favourite, easily, and anyone who knew what Zara was could see why. This blonde didn’t of course, but Zara didn’t care. Shrugging off her jacket, she curled her braids over her shoulder before tugging her shirt up and revealing the lower half of her back. The tattoo covered the whole of her lower back, and the design itself was a dragon in flight, wings spread to full capacity and curving over her hips, the tail curving and disappearing along her waist. “Depends on the place you’re getting it,” She replied easily. “Over bone hurts a lot, but manageable. In all honesty it just feels like someone digging a sharp pencil into your skin.”

Humming appreciatively, the blonde appraised the art work and the smooth curves of the woman’s lower back. “It’s quite beautiful. I find myself jealous. I’d love to have something done with such care permanently on my body as a reminder of something more than just art.” She made a thoughtful noise before adding, “I think I could take it. A sharp pencil is nothing.”

davina.

Got to keep moving, that’s the only way to treat sadness, keep moving so the darkness can never catch and eat your heart up. She’s not right; not in mind, in spirit or on this extensional plane. Harbinger’s never are. A lift of her mouth and a tuck of her head in agreement. “I need a goddamn drink – although I’ve always preferred vodka mixed with cranberry.” Doe legs crossing sidewalks, she’s on destination for the local pub.

It wasn’t hard for her to keep up. The girl’s pace was positively slow. “Someone’s a bit upset today.” She mumbled to herself, keeping an innocent smile on her face as she followed after. “Cranberry and vodka? I don’t quite like mixing drinks.”

kvtya.

      “Hm,” she murmured. “I guess I don’t think about it. I don’t really like tourist season.” Tourists were a pain and she only ever remembered her parents complaining about how they made everything harder: keeping secrets, protecting those that needed it, making sure that everything stayed in the proper order.

“You don’t like seeing all these new people for only a short few moments? It’s fascinating to me honestly.” Cassie gushed, not sure how someone could be so removed. People were so complex and different. She was jealous of them. “What do you like then?”

siennao.

Sienna nodded easily and glanced back at Ari, smiling softly. “He’s a good kid. Bright, caring, honest. A bit of an adrenaline junkie when you think about it. He’s…. he’s my pride and my joy.” Sienna’s smile kicked back up into something akin to a grin and she glanced back at the woman. “It’d probably only be a few days after school, when he finishes. Just picking up and taking him to the park before dropping him off at either my place or my exes place… speaking of which - I’ll have to go over some details with my ex, since I’m sure he’s bound to have a few issues with it,” She rolled her eyes, “But he should come around. Do you have a way I can get into contact with you?”

“You don’t understand how happy this makes me. Honestly.” She hadn’t been around a child who wasn’t cowering in fear in ages. Ana and Orion didn’t seem to share the same philosophies on her when they took or coerced others to be their test subjects, but she also isolated herself from mothers, from aunts, uncles, fathers, anything that could link back to a child because it hurt too much. “I’ll do anything. Whatever you want. I promise that he will be safe with me.” She would never let anyone hurt a child. Not after what her siblings forced her to do.

“I lived on land for a good bit of my childhood so I’ve grown attached to it,I do love the freedom and the beauty of the ocean though,but I love being on land just as much”

“You might be safer in the water.”

katherine.

Warm red hue creeping onto her cheeks, Kitty flashed the other an apologetic grin. “Yeah - sorry, family you know ??” The brunette said, holding her phone aloft. “Hope I didn’t offend you. I swear I don’t normally insult strangers.”

“Mm, family. The explanation for everything. Say no more.” Shaking her head, the girl smiled it off. “I didn’t take offence. I saw the phone. Don’t worry.”

orion.

“I see it.” He said wearily, stopping short of telling her everything else he could see. That even thinking wasn’t stopping her. That her feelings were becoming a problem. Being hard on Cassiopeia was not effective and at a point when they needed her on side, he couldn’t risk pushing his sister further away by aggravating her. “I’m simply frustrated. We aren’t making the kind of progress I’d like.” That wasn’t a lie. It was just not the only thing that frustrated him. Giving her an exhausted look, he stepped back slightly as she pulled him into a hug. He was not particularly fond of contact - though he made exceptions. If a hug made her more focused, he could allow it. Wrapping his arms around his sister, he forced on a small smile. “Just make it something decent, yes?” 

“We’ll make progress. There are plenty of here. Shifters, Dragons, Vampires, Merfolk, they’re all here. I’ve even seen some strange ones that I’ve not crossed or heard of before. We’ll find it here, you just have to have faith. You worry too much.” Why didn’t she ever take him more seriously? Something in his need for it to happen now should have worried her, but she was too focused on her excitement to notice. “But the awful ones are the best!”

matty.

“There are worse things in the world then a bit of dirt. I’m not the biggest fan of super sweet things so I have a bit of an advantage in that aspect.” Matty mentioned. She wasn’t a big food person in general, after all, she had her own sustenance. “No no, go ahead and pick what you want. I still have the rest of the day ahead of to clean up shop.”

“True, but I don’t fancy eating it either. There’s just something about the texture that’s off” Cassie joked with an odd expression. “I do quite love sweets though. I could eat my weight in them all day which is probably bad that I’ve found this place. What do you suggest though?”

valeria.

“Oh, good. Because it’s easy to tell when it’s a guy flirting, but I’m kinda hopeless when it comes to knowing if another woman is.” Valeria admitted a little shyly, hands rubbing over each other as she spoke. “No, I just really wasn’t sure and I actually kind of, um, just broke up with someone, so the whole flirting and dating thing really isn’t something I want to entertain. You’re so sweet though, this is really nice of you and the next one’s on me to apologize properly.” Valeria told her, a nod of her head confirming her words before she smiled at the brunette in front of her. “So, have you been in town very long? I don’t think I’ve seen your face around before.” She asked it both out of interest and to change the subject from her own behaviour. 

“I wasn’t.” Cassie assured once more with a soft breath. Was she pointed if she thought it was a vain assumption to jump to? If she were going to go after anyone, subtle was the last thing that could describe Cassiopeia. “Well, I’m sorry to hear that. Relationships are always quite a strange and foreign thing to me. I couldn’t do another one after my first.” Her only relationship truthfully. After killing her husband, her siblings hadn’t let her shackle herself to anyone else and  Cassie found it easier that way. “No, I’m just visiting. I’ve heard great things about this place.”

aubrey.

Aubrey smiled at the girl and replied, “Yeah I don’t mind. Here, I’ll just close the store and meet you out front.” She handed the girl her flowers and vase and walked into the backroom to grab her things. 

She grabbed her phone, her purse and out of habit, she reached into the desk drawer and grabbed a few weapons. She kept them here for her own safety and   although she had some at her home, the majority of them were at the flower shop. She walked back through the shop and locked the door behind her, “you all set to go?” She asked the girl. 

Cassie couldn’t say that she minded as she collected the flowers and vase and placed down money as compensation. She took a moment to look around the shop and found that she liked it. There was something welcoming about it or maybe just the memory of flowers.

“Oh, yeah. Definitely all set.” She rocked back on her heels and snapped out of the daze that she had fallen in. Coming back to reality was always a bit disappointing. “So, what is there to do around here that won’t be crawling with a summer crowd?”

anastxsiya.

Eyes wide, the dhampir realized the girl she was speaking to was not who she’d thought. “Oh- God, I’m sorry.” Ana said, hurriedly explaining herself. “From outside, you looked like my friend - I’m meeting her for coffee. Sorry for the confusion.” Furrowing her brow, she registered the girl’s mumbled words. “Ana ?? Why would I kill you ??”

      Realising her mistake quickly, Cassie shook her head vehemently and tried to clarify. “No, no I’m sorry. My sister is named Ana. I was looking for her and that’s what I meant... that’s who I was looking for. I’m assuming that your name is Ana as well?”

aradia.

“Is someone there?”

She didn’t want to answer. Cassie personally didn’t want to be seen, though she knew if she were found it would be an odd explanation to give. It wasn’t breaking and entering. Technically. The door had been unlocked, but she was a slightly experienced liar and felt guilty standing in the shadows. “Sorry, did I startle you? I meant to clean the house, but I think I’ve come into the wrong place. I think I was meant to be next door. They said the door would be unlocked, but I’m horrible with directions. Do the Graingers live here?”
