Cissy, what is your favorite thing to do to relax?

“I um, I really like changing into my silkiest, most comfortable nightwear, climbing into a freshly made bed, and cracking open a new book. Something like, really indulgent, like a super fluffy romance manga or um, whatever romantacy thing TikTok is going on about this week.”

[distoretion]

Dis, is there anyone you hate, or even just dislike?

“Hate’s a bit strong, but I do have a few people I dislike!” Dis says, as if the question is a bit silly. “I make an effort to get on with everyone I know — I feel that you can’t really ‘like’ or ‘not like’ someone you don’t know personally because then you’re just liking or not like who you think they are. That said, there’s always going to be folks you don’t get along with no matter what, and I try not hold that against anyone, but the ones who aren’t willing to at least be civil about it… Yes, I can definitely say I dislike those people.”

[distoretion]

Tor, do you have a 'type'?

“Probably not, given my dating history.” He shrugs. “Lively carefree naturalists, quiet thoughtful dorks, snarky loudmouths who wouldn’t put up with my shit… one thing they had in common is they were all way shorter than me but that’s pretty much everyone when you’re 6’5.”

[distoretion]

Dis, what is your most embarrassing moment that involves magic?

“One time a woman ordered a youth potion from me, specifying she wanted to look and feel 20 years younger. All the recipes I had didn’t shave nearly as many years off, so I had to do a lot of research, experimenting, sourcing of rare ingredients, etcetera… Unfortunately once I was finally ready to test the potion I forgot to factor in the fact that I myself am in my mid 20s. I ended up having to deliver the final product looking like a kindergartener.”

Ilari nodded again, enthusiastically looping an arm around Rahim’s shoulder to give him a squeeze. He definitely wanted his brother to visit him!

Eyes lighting up with an idea, he pointed to one of the upcoming events on his schedule. It had little stars and smiley faces doodled around it, his clumsy writing managing to spell out SCHOOL FESTIVAL AND OPEN HOUSE!!! in all caps.

[songs-in-nature]

Rahim leaned in again, reading the doodle highlighted line. A festival? It had been awhile since he attended something like that, much less a festival at a magic creature school. "What's an open house versus a closed house? What makes it open?" Open to visitors maybe? Did that mean he technically broke in last time? That was kinda funny to think about.

[distoretion]

Ilari raised a finger, opening his mouth excitedly as if to explain despite having no vocal cords before his face fell into a confused frown. That was… a really good question he didn’t actually know the answer to.

After thinking about it a while, he gave up, shrugged, and made a ‘follow me’ motion before tapping on the OPEN HOUSE event to say that Rahim should come anyway.

[onlyrpmemes]

Hey, you. Yes, you. Send me anons. Make it about whatever you want. Just send one.

No really. Send one. Or two. Or three. Whatever.

“No, no you’re definitely memorable,” Dis said, clearing her throat as she remembered how close he’d gotten to her when they’d first crossed paths. “But, your dad’s the sheriff, huh? I’m sorry, that must be rough.”

[treacheroushearts]

"I am?" He raised an eyebrow at her, a lopsided smile forming on his lips. He really didn't think he stood out much. In fact, these days, he tried not to. It was less trouble for him.

At the mention of his dad, Tyler sighed and looked out the window. "Yeah. We definitely don't see eye to eye." Returning his attention to Dis, he offered a sad smile. "Not that I'm a criminal or anything, but uh, he's still as much of a hard-ass as you would expect from a cop as a dad."

[distoretion]

“Yeah. You have a nice smile,” She explained, motioning towards his expression as she spoke. “It stuck in my mind after you helped me out on Outreach Day.”

“I can imagine… it’s not helpful in general, and it’s not the kind of affection you’re looking for from a parent.” Dis said, then winced at herself and added more softly. “Sorry, it’s not my place to say that, is it? I don’t want to put words in your mouth.”

[distoretion]

“Do you not check your student emails or something?” She asked, squinting at him through the darkness. Her ability to see in low light wasn’t bad given how much time she spent underwater, but she didn’t have the same level of night vision as some Outcasts so she couldn’t quite make out his face.

“Well, even if you don’t you at least must have heard people complaining about how we’re stuck on campus lockdown.” Dis continued, crossing her arms as she glanced towards the high wrought iron fence pinning them in. “The reason no one’s allowed out is someone reported seeing Tyler Galpin in town a few days ago. So, given what happened last semester and the one before that, you shouldn’t be trying to sneak out right now. You’ll get in major trouble.”

[treacheroushearts]

She mistook him for a student, just as he had hoped, and gave him information that was valuable, but still definitely bad news for him. He hadn't realized he'd been spotted and reported. The school going on lock down definitely made his plans a lot harder to carry through.

"Alright, fine. Why are you trying to sneak out then?" he asked, still playing the part of an annoyed student. "If you turn me in, I could turn you in just as easily. You're not supposed to be out here either."

[distoretion]

“Oh, I’m not trying to sneak out!” Dis told him, laughing and shaking her head. “Definitely not worth it. Especially if you’re going to threaten to tattle on me. Which is kind of mean since I never said I was going to report you to a teacher, just that you probably shouldn’t do it.”

“No, see, there’s this family of river otters that moved in on campus recently, and the student run paper wants some pictures of them but they don’t have any Sirens or Merrow on the team so Lenore — she’s their regular photographer — asked Raven who does the costumes with me in drama club to ask me, and I got permission from our dorm mother to come out and get pictures as long as I’m back within the hour.”

“Look, the newspaper club even leant me this fancy camera that has night vision settings and everything,” She added, holding up a camera that was tightly sealed in a plastic bag for taking under water shots. Her smile was bright and friendly as she headed over to show him, right up until she got close enough to see his face.

There, just outside of arms reach, her expression faltered and her body went still as her eyes flashed with recognition. Tyler Galpin.

The next instant, she turned on her heel and ran.

[distoretion]

‘Ohhh, so that’s why she’s so eager to buy me coffee,’ Tor thought, a slow smirk growing over his features as he kept his eyes on hers. Well, why not? She was pretty cute, and it had been a while since he’d been on an actual date instead of just hooking up with someone.

“Hm, tell ya what: I’m busy now, but if yer old enough to buy me a drink sometime how ‘bout we do that?” He asked, leaning forward and resting his forearms on his knees as he grinned crookedly at her. “I can give ya my cell number t’ arrange all the details.”

[s0u1c0de]

Arda mistook his smirk for a smile and beamed back at Tor, happy to accept his compromise. "Oh yes! I am twenty four, I can drink." Actually holding her liquor well was another story, but legally speaking, alcohol was allowed to her. "I would love to go out for drinks with you!"

Reaching into her little butterfly purse, she pulled her phone out and brought up her contacts to add him in. Figuring it would be easier for him to type it all in, she trusted Tor blindly and quickly got up to sit on the side of the bus he was on, scooting in next to him and handing her phone off to him. "Do you want me to put my number in your phone too?" she asked. "That way you know it's me when I call?"

[distoretion]

Tor turned towards her as she sat down next to him, one arm moving to rest on the back of the bus seat behind her as she cozied in. ‘Hah, that’s cute. She’s not even pretending to play it cool anymore, is she?’

“Sure thing, Sweets,” He said, accepting the phone and punching his number in before digging his own out of his pocket. It was a burner rather than a smartphone, so he took a moment to set it up to take a new contract before giving it to her along with her own phone. “What caller ID should I be on the lookout for? I put my number under ‘Tor’, by the way.”

🌹 I was intimidated by you at first, given my exposure to you was through Almond's Hunger Games, but I'm glad we got to know each other some and now we can be unserious together :)

Yes! I’m very glad we got the chance to write and be silly billies together!!!

[distoretion]

I appreciate how thoughtful and understanding you are. You don't treat roleplaying like it's a job and have never made me feel rushed to get to things (and I know I can be very slow at times v_v).

You're also a very talented writer and I know we don't have a lot of threads going right now, but I am enjoying what we've started together thus far. :3

You’re sweet. 🥰 Of course role play isn’t meant to be treated like a job, this is all something we’re doing for fun so there’s never any reason to make anyone feel rushed! Everyone should take the time they need and go at their own pace, Brigid’s Sweet Fire do I know I have to take my own time with it lol. Glad you’re enjoying our threads and I’m looking forward to seeing where they take us.

[distoretion]

I appreciate that you always give something interesting to reply back to and keep the plot and story moving forward with fresh ideas, and it makes me so happy to see someone who puts so much love and care into their characters and their development. Even in different verses, they are still themselves, while also allowing for room to grow in different directions due to changing circumstances. You're such a talented writer, and a fun friend.

Thank you so much! I try to always at least give something that adds another layer to the scene instead of simply reacting to what just happened, and I’m glad to see the work I put into my characters and writing shines through. I enjoy all the different verses I get to make with my characters and seeing how it would effect their demeanor if this didn’t happen or that did, and I love getting to write those verses with people. Thank you for being my friend and I hope we get to keep writing together for a long time. 💜
