“Then lets not talk, okay?” Hope murmured quietly, mustering up all the courage she had within her as she walked over towards Edward. Her one hand rested on the back of his neck whilst the other rested on his chest, swiftly pressing her lips against his.

Edward found himself taken back by her actions. Never would he have expected Hope to take such an approach, however, he did not dispute it. Instead, he placed his hands to cup her face as a means to continue pressing his lips against her’s.

“I don’t want to talk about it– let’s just focus on this, okay?”

“If we are going to talk about this, we are going to need a drink.”

“Alcohol, the cause of and solution to all of life's problems.”

Ashton hummed along to the tune he was playing on his guitar. He was sitting on a rock out in the middle of the woods, so he wasn’t expecting anyone to bother him.

[edwardsaltzman-blog]

Edward would almost always opt to spend his free time in the woods. Between the peace and the nature that surrounded him, it seemed mad to not retreat from such an insane town. His thoughts were focused on the spell he was perfecting, almost having it until the sound of guitar strings echoed among the tree. He followed the sound to find Ashton, “Good acoustics?”

“I swear I’ve had at least four cups of coffee and am still yawning every ten minutes. This is getting to be a little ridiculous.”

“It’s usually better to let yourself avoid caffeine until you are at your lowest point, then grab a quick espresso or some black coffee to perk you up.”

“I don’t care what anyone says, there is no ‘better’ side of the face. At least not my face. Both sides are equally great over here—anyway, what were you saying?”

“I know people who won’t visit certain places at specific times due to the lighting not being perfect enough for them; constant selfie mode.”

“Out of all the people that I know, you are by far one of the best and most decent. And I wouldn’t dare underestimate you simply because you’re a witch. Witches can be powerful and whilst some may be evil, I don’t believe you to be. I think you’re a good and pure soul with a kind heart. And now that I’ve said that aloud, I realize how cheesy it sounds, so my apologies. I do have have a lifetime to find whatever I’m missing, but I also don’t want to spend my entire lifetime searching for that thing. That would be quite a boring and wasted life, don’t you think? Mission accomplished because you do provide stability and a sense of normalcy in this chaotic place we call our home. And I appreciate you not wanting to treat me like porcelain because I’m not fragile. I’m a lot of things, yes, but fragile is not one of them. I’ve never really had anyone aside from my family call me beautiful, so you’ll have to excuse my blushing. What do you get nervous about or have meltdowns over? I look forward to catching you whilst you ramble because I’m certain it will be far more adorable than you perceive my rambling to be.”

“You flatter me far too much, Hope. Witches are often underestimated by so many in the supernatural existence, and yet we are their creators. I suppose you are bias though, being a Tribrid and all. If anybody in this town has a kind heart and represents purity, it hard to be yourself; you literally used your powers for good and did something selfless for those you love. Maybe cheesy isn’t a bad thing - we can be incredibly cheesy together. That time could be used for other stuff though, life is always happening whenever we are busy making plans but if you are looking for direction then I know you can achieve whatever it is you wish to accomplish, when you discover whatever that is. Everybody needs stability in this town yet it is not always there, so I am happy to fulfill that role. Never before? Do you usually blind people upon meeting them? I often like to think I am positive person albeit the sudden dose of pessimism hits me. That’s when the rambles begin, so I will probably shut myself away at that point.”

“Nope— I don’t like making plans. But Kai threw me a surprise party earlier today at work, so I’m good. Don’t know what I’m gonna do the rest of the day, though.”

[edwardsaltzman-blog]

“See where the day takes you. A party? That was awesome of him; it doesn’t really feel like a birthday without cake and cheers. Well, maybe a repeat for forever twenty-one by grabbing a few drinks?”

[vampxnoelle-blog]

“Thank you, Ed. And since you guessed, you’ve won a piece of cake.”

[edwardsaltzman-blog]

“I wish I could say psychic powers but it was pure instinct. A piece of cake? A prize that can not be refused. Got any big plans for your special day?”

maybe reply to your own messages instead of hiding and getting sam to do it for you

I’m not hiding from anything. My intention was to actually leave the entire situation be as I prefer to avoid confrontation – however, this isn’t the first message I have received about this situation (which is being completely blown out of proportion) and I feel like I need to address something. Over the past month, or maybe longer than that, I have been on a hiatus due to personal reasons so forgive me if my replies have not been constant or plentiful. I do not want anybody to feel as if I am pushing them out, that I only want to interact with one person or ignore them intentionally. That isn’t the case at all; in fact, I am very open to ideas and plots for my characters. Although I am no mind reader, if you want to plot with me then please message me and we can work something out. If you want to interact with my characters then please feel free to message me or remind me of threads that I might have missed. In the past I have approached people about connections and recently have done but between a hiatus and people leaving, that is no longer the case. 

I would clearly like to say that none of my characters have had interactions that have been forced and that I can say no when I feel as if that is the case. It upsets me that people have attacked members, regardless of who they are; this should not be the case. This is about having fun and feeling safe. Well, today has been a day where certain individual(s) have been making others uncomfortable and no longer safe - this shouldn’t be happening. If you are worried about an individual or any aspect of the group then message one of the admins or the main page OFF ANON thus giving us the chance to help fix the problem, rather than have petty comments thrown about. 

This probably makes little sense at 4 am and I am sure somebody will find a flaw in my message or intentions. Nevertheless, I want to interact with everyone in the group that wants to or form plots with a variety of people. Approach me about it, if you are interest.If you have any concerns within the group then contact us. Don’t become bitter and fester over the situation to the point of attacking others, that does not solve anything.

“Can you guess whose birthday is today?”

[edwardsaltzman-blog]

“Many happy returns.”

“I’m not sure I’m ready for my little baby to start doing magical things. She’s already triggered her vampire gene and is forced to drink blood, which is something to adjust to in itself. The magic thing? Completely out of my element. Her father will be dealing with that aspect of things.” Nova murmured with a slight laugh, a small smile forming on her lips as she protectively watched Edward pick her daughter up. She was pleased to see that he was gentle and cautious, but also seemingly knew what to do. “So, what has you wandering around town?” She inquired, making small talk whilst continuing to search through the diaper bag.

“When they are this young, it’s hardly something that witch babies work on. I mean things can happen when they are in the womb but it’s hardly a conscious motion. Have you guys looked into reversing that? I’m sure you probably have thought about it... but newborns keep you busy, huh.” Edward shrugged, his mind often thinking to the magical aspect of things and with the little Tribrid being an anomaly, even for Mystic Falls. His movement became intensely delicate when feeling the eyes of both Nova and Gabriel watching him, understandably, although eventually holding Maddie with ease and care. “Just out for a run, trying to clear my head from all the craziness and then heading to the Grill. How about you guys? Just here for the fresh air?” He asked, looking down to the baby in his arms as he made a dopey smile with her blue eyes gazing to the stranger holding her.

“There are times when I wish that I was a human, was completely oblivious to the supernatural world and lived a normal life. Then there are times that I’m grateful for what I am and the fact that I know about these things. Could you imagine how dangerous life would be if you were completely unaware of things? Sure, it would be blissful to an extent, but I don’t know. I feel like you’d be much more… at risk and inferior. I like that you accept who you are and are confident. It’s refreshing and a joy to see. I accept who I am and I try to embrace it for the most part, but I feel like my life isn’t as fulfilling as it could be, you know? You’re the most normal thing in my life, to be honest. It’s part of the reason that I like being around you so much. And you ramble too? Now that’s something I’d like to see. I’m sure your rambling is way more adorable than mine.”

“I think anybody who has not experienced being truly human wish for such a thing. Many do not know about the supernatural word, which is why they do not have the tragedy— then again, they do have their own dramas that seem so minuscule to what we have experienced. Everyone dreams of a different life, I am sure of it. Yet I cannot disagree that it is scary to think how troubling it could be for us not to know. Every gift comes with a price is what is often said. I don’t have a lot going for me, apart from the witch side of things; it’s what gives me some confidence since I’m not the worse out there. You have a lifetime to find that missing piece... saying that, I realize that you probably don’t want to spend the rest of your life waiting for that something to fulfill you. Then I enjoy being the most normal thing in your life, I want to give you some stability and to be there for you when you need me to be or to offer some reality when this town can seem so chaotic... rather than treat you like porcelain, despite how beautiful you are. Try catching me when I’m nervous or having a meltdown, it will be then that I become some form of rambling mess. I could attempt all I like but I would never be that adorable.”

“I wouldn’t let you practice magic on my child. It was a joke.” Nova clarified as she shook her head with a small smile, glancing at the male for a moment. “Have you ever held a baby before? The last thing I need is for you to drop her or something because then I would have to kill you. I’m kidding, by the way. Well, kind of. If you promise to be careful and not try to kidnap her or anything, be my guest.”

“It wasn’t so much magic on your child, more so getting the means to help your child through magic - although she is a witch herself, soon enough she will be doing things for herself.” Edward joked when meeting Nova’s glance, grin spread on his face. “Between you and your husband, the last thing I would want to do is drop Madeline; sort of enjoy the whole living aspect. It’s been some time since I have held a baby, nevertheless, I remember to support the head and neck as well as the basic instincts. Also, if I kidnap her then I have to deal with the whole hunger and crying thing which would make her less cute... well, to me anyway.” He rambled before moving closer toward the pram to gently lift the small baby from where she laid.

“I still have a long way to go before I can be any near a solution to this. And it’s not like I’ll find one— I mean, I want to but it’s Hope’s spell what we are talking about here. She’s the reason we’re alive in the first place.” The brunette shrugged. “Maybe you could try with something else and see where it goes from there?”

“Magic is always complicated; no matter what the spell is or how much of an impact it has. If people weren’t so confrontational then I believe we might be closer. Hope is an incredibly powerful being, and though the situation is not perfect, her heart was in the right place— her magic came with a price but things could be worse, right?” He spoke in agreement with her, “There is a chance I’m just having a bad time and it will blow over.”

“Maybe you could like go off the grid for a bit. Don’t contact anyone and don’t let anyone contact you for a bit. Or choose a few close people and only contact them. Take a break from this crazy town, even if you can’t leave it.”

“I am not entirely sure where you can escape in this town. Sometimes I go to the woods to get away from everything but even then nothing can stop the spirits - downsides of being a witch, especially when your coven is no more. Life would be easier with the barrier down although there are so many people I love that would not be here and that’s something I could never argue with.”
