Vesper awoke suddenly on the forest floor, his senses returning with their old normalcy - or so he hoped. He slowly sat up and hesitantly brought a hand up, touching his face and around his head. He let out a heavy sigh of relief. “Bloody hell that was rather fun now wasn’t it…” he mumbled to himself. There was a sound of someone in the trees so he stood up and straightened his posture, brushing over his uniform to properly compose himself. “No need to lurk ~ I can assure you I am not any sort of odd looking ghoul. I happen to have a rather good head on my shoulders currently.” he said with a chuckle of bitter irony.
"Fun, really? I hope you're being sarcastic." Candice called out from behind a tree, peeking around towards the guy who mumbled towards himself. She was a bit too quick to answer but, regardless, she did. He wasn't even speaking to her but she had to get in. "I'm not lurking. It isn't nice to assume." A crinkle formed between her brows as she walked out, arms crossed over her chest. "I wouldn't care if you were, I'm just glad I'm not a.. Spinx."
"Remind me, when did I say I gave a fuck about anything you just said or have to say?"
"Remind me, when did I even speak to you, crazy pants? Jesus Christ, I knew some people had a stick up their ass all day.. but wow."
"At least the weather here is still nice. I almost expected it to be damp and rainy."
"Why wouldn’t I?"
"You never know, guys always find a reason to not. I'm just kidding, don't worry."
"Well to answer you question no I am not and you talking to me probably won’t make it better?"she said trying not to yell. Talking to people isn’t going to make it any better.
"So I figured.. but if you don't want someone to talk, maybe your room is a better choice? Unless you have a roommate?" She suggested in an effort to, maybe, calm her down.
"At least you're keeping your trunks on."
"Yes actually it is, Aria Summers by the way, I was bored and so new people equals new adventures.” Aria said still following the girl she was not easily deterred, and she wanted to make a new friend….well her first friend.
"Poetic. Candice Tibideaux." She answered with a slight nod, a bit surprised by her boldness to start following a person. Of course, she didn't particularly mind now, but it was still impressive. "I was venturing out around here. It's a lot better outside than it is inside; wandering that is. Not as many twists and turns."
"You know what? I just might want to piss them off. Who knows, maybe I have ODD myself, and this whole damn time I had my urges to tell the authority figures to eat my ass repressed by all the canvas they allow me to have and partially waste. I think this school is kind of nice. Then again, I don’t really have anything out there that I’m not allowed in here, aside from free hunting ground. The youngest and the only sister? Tough break, foxy. I figured. I don’t really fear any spontaneous stabbings anymore that my career is over and I could break a human’s neck in a blink. Lose some, win some: that’s how life is.”
"I’m Jude."
"Ooh, I can hear the rebel yell coming out already. Are you? I think if you had ODD controling your urges would be a lot harder, wouldn't it? I mean, it is a form of a disorder. The canvas is vast but shrinking the more trouble we get in or cause, just so you know. I've heard a lot about this place. Inside sources are cancerous to the newbies. Yeah, it's pretty nice. Lucky for you; I never hunted freely. Dunno if I'd want to, myself, vampy. Oh well, they got me tough. I can patch a punch if I want to, trust me. Career, huh? Tough break; not the neck but that sucks. Sometimes the loses overcompensate for the wins and vice versa, though."
"I'd probably call you Judge Judy if you didn't, apparently, have ODD. You'd be the authority yourself."
"What the hell do you want?!"
"Talk about catty. I was just going to ask if you were okay sitting there with your negative energy but okay."
Aria was wandering in the courtyard, she was beyond bored, nothing to do…no fun to be had. When a person crossed her path and she decided to follow
She was certain someone was following her. Not just due to the fact she could smell how close they were but the footsteps were easy to read. "Is this a hobby of yours?" She spoke aloud as she spun, eyes widening. "Because that's creepy."
"Strong? I think ‘preternatural freaks’ pretty much sums all of our shit up. Oppositional-defiant disorder isn’t as cutely misrepresented as attention deficit disorder, so that’s kind of a let down. Fresh meat, huh? I’ve been here for… a little while. Just not big on socializing since getting stabbed. Really does a number on a guy’s psyche."
"Well, you know, if you want to piss off the veterans here go ahead. Not my problem and not like I'm pissed; though you wouldn't care, I'm guessing. Everyone's a bit freaky. Oh, well. The fact we even need a school to be placed in to be safe is a bit of a let down. Fresh meat. Got put in here with the two older brothers and yeah. Ah, well, I don't have anything hidden up these sleeves or even a manicure.. you're safe with me. Me being Candice and all that introductory bull. "
"Let’s go back to the part where I said the diurnal should have a curfew. But you’re right: everyone here would give less than negative one fuck about obeying a rule of all things. Who knew a bunch of preternatural freaks were capable of being attention deficit and ODD?”
"On that, I am right. Preternatural freaks is a strong title coming from one, himself. After all, we're all technically freaks in the eyes of the assholes deciding to go after us. But tak into consideration that a lot of the people here are either teenagers, freaks or not, or rambunctious adults. Shit's gonna happen; sleep is gonna lose it's glory. I doubt they have attention deficient but ODD? Probably from what I've seen; I'm still fresh meat."
"You’d think there’d be a curfew for the diurnal around here to shut up and go to goddamn sleep at a decent time."
"... but coming from dark and creepy that's a bit surprising. If there's a curfew, nobody is gonna follow it."
Fuck it. Is this a threesome or a staring contest?
