BRITIN:

  twins ?  that would actually explain a lot. shit. so apparently the witch he’d insulted was a real witch and probably very capable of cursing him.  if so, she’d apparently done a shit job of it seeing as his life was going considerably well at the moment. he was sober ( ish ) with a new project under his belt and a few weeks off to spend with his mates.  what could go wrong ?  he’d later eat those thoughts but for the moment he was under the belief he’d escaped whatever ‘ hex‘ she’d planned for him.  “so they go around cursing people ?  harsh. i know the tourists like getting their palms read or what have you but no one goes on vacation to get hexed. talk about a tacky souvenir. “

   evangeline looked at the wizard in amused surprised, “really? it was actually -- ” she cut off her own sentence in laughter. “well maybe you shouldn’t go around insulting women then, -- next time you may not be lucky enough for one of the twins to be in a good mood .... which sister was it? blonde or brunette?” the twins, aside from hair color, were identical, so it was, individually, their most indentifiable feature.

RICKY:

“Someone who could bail on such a beautiful woman such as yourself does not a good friend make.  I will absolutely join you.  What have you been up to lately?”

     “thank you, darling,” eva smiled, linking her arm with ricky’s as they walked. “unfortunately not too much. or nothing out of the ordinary for me, anyways: work, family things, regretable dates ... you know how it is. and yourself?”

[evangelincs]

perfumedregret:

      “       sounds like fun.       i don’t really       …       have a lot of traditions like that with my family.       ”       tiffany blinked,       and for a second,       the witch looked a little more tired than she had a moment before.       she had her own chosen family of course,       but it would’ve been nice to have things like eva calais did.

     “well then,” evangeline began after taking a moment to let tiffany’s statement rest. “consider this your invitation, if you’re free for it. what we consider to be our coven isn’t just our blood -- we’d be more than happy to have you.”

[evangelincs]

LEZEKIEL:

     “      maybe.      ”      lezekiel stuffed his hands in his pockets,      the last of his flyers having now flown into the hands of potential prospects.      he walked over to evangeline,      a couple feet between them as he admired the weather.      “      it’s such a shame to be cooped up on a day like this.      ”      he looked at her then.      “      you get so caught up in seeing everything in your mind sometimes that you forget to experience it for yourself.      ”      lezekiel flicked a curl out of his hazel hues;      today they favored the ocean more than gold.      you never knew what you were going to see when you looked into his eyes,      which was fitting,      seeing as you never knew what you were going to get when you were in the prophet’s presence.      “      you wouldn’t want to go for a walk      ?      ”

   evangeline hummed in thought, glancing to the sundial on her wrist --  she certainly had time to kill, and it was a beautiful day.  “i’d be up for that, i have time until i have to be back in the office, and as you said it’d be a shame to be cooped up when it is unnecessary.” she readjusted her bag, falling into stride alongside lezekiel as they walked. “so, how have you been, darling? anything exciting in your life, or have you been spending a majority of your time calling to witches on the street from your shop?”

There is always a way out for those clever enough to find it.

Nice avoidance tactics, /Eva darling/, but the question still remains. Neither of those letters hint at anything regarding feelings or depth whatsoever, and you didn’t note that you had a conversation of substance with them in person during your visits. So--- did you?

     eva rolled her eyes, the action not visible to the charmed parchment. “wasn’t avoiding, rita, but nevertheless i’ll play along. when my mother and i met for tea we spent the day reminiscing over memories from when i was young and making plans to spend a weekend together in paris since we don’t go to the city much when i visit, we mainly stay in toulouse. my papa and i, as usual, spent one of our mornings at my mémére’s final resting place talking about her, and her relationship with my pépére, and how lucky we are to have the family that we do. satisfied, darling?”

[evangelincs]

Why did you decide to start an ask column at the Prophet? Do you really think you’re qualified to be giving advice to other people, especially about your love life which is so clearly faltering? When is the last time you would say it was stable? A year? Two years? Or perhaps with your Hogwarts Sweetheart, Kellan?

     “well you may have me there, darling,” evangeline conceded, blowing on her drying nails, glancing towards the charmed parchment. “my longest relationship since kellan was six months when i spent just over that living in the states, but i’m not really too bothered by it. now onto my job, only a fraction of the owls are about love advice. and besides, though i may not always follow my own love advice, doesn’t mean that it isn’t right, i’ve spent a majority of my time giving advice like that to my closest friends. now i just get paid for it.”

[evangelincs]

For someone who acts like they have control over every little aspect of their life, it’s ironic that you don’t even have control over the aspect of which where life began. When was the last time you even had a conversation of substance with either of your parents?

     evangeline’s focus was only partly on her honesty hour questions, as she divided her attention her nails that she was painting at the same time. “well that depends,” she started, “if owls count, then i wrote my mother a lengthy response yesterday regarding her letter to me about my cousin bastien’s graduation from beauxbatons and the resulting party in three week’s time, and saw her in person two weeks ago for a catch up over tea in diagon alley. wrote to my papa three days ago about my upcoming new orleans visit to celebrate lammas with the family, and spent the weekend with him a month ago when i was in the city last. appreciate your concern, rita darling, but my family and i are doing just fine.”

[@bryony-peters liked for a starter]

     “... so yeah,” eva sighed, idly using her magic to stir her spoon in her tea, “he asked me out again but he’s just so dull! i didn’t want to make working with him weird at the prophet or anything, but i cannot sit through another date with him, you know?”

「 @evacalais liked for a starter 」

   “…yeah, i’ve been to new orleans. some witch in the french quarter said she was going to put a hex on me.” he snorted.  “you insult someone’s sister once and suddenly you’re the worst bloody bloke this side of the pond.” 

[evangelincs]

     “we protect our own, and it sounds like you may have deserved it,” evangeline teased. “my cousin apolline has certainly threatened some blokes for her sister constance before -- they’re twins and fiercly protective over each other, especially when guys don’t know when to stop talking.”

“    i mean,    you’re talking to the witch who used to carry her katana and keep it in plain sight just for the    HELL    of it,    ”    alecto chuckled.    while it was no means supposed to be used as a weapon,    or at least she was assuming,    she could understand how someone could get the wrong idea.    “    well no harm no foul,    love.    ”    she walked into her friend’s flat.    “    the meeting with the investors went off without a hitch and ended early,    for    once.    ”

     “wicked! well, make yourself comfortable, darling.” evangeline disappeared momentarily into her kitchen, returning with a bottle of red wine and two glasses. “care for a glass?” the former ravenclaw poured herself a glass of wine before looking to her friend as she halted before pouring the second. “sounds like you’ve earned it.”

A STARTER FOR ▸ EVA. (@evacalais)

      “  what’s  been  on  the  news  lately  ?  haven’t  gotten  around  to  doing  much  digging  now  that  i’ve  been  busy.  ”  friends  or  people  that  used  to  go  to  the  same  school  went  their  own  separate  ways  after  graduating,  but  theo  seemed  consistent  with  his  knowledge  of  what  people  nowadays  did  for  a  living.  or  the  kind  of  vibe  they  gave  off.  that,  or  he  just  remembered  reading  eva’s  name  on  one  of  the  articles  on  the  daily  prophet  and  was  curious.  his  own  sense  of  wonder  always  seemed  to  amaze  both  him  and  the  people  around  him  as  the  male  never  kept  it  contained.

[evangelincs]

     “depends on who you talk to,” evangeline shrugged. the daily prophet was a rather extensive operation with multiple departments that didn’t always see finished editions of the news outlet until the public did. “those that report on crime will still tell you all about the cauldron heists, social pages will tell you about the bagnold-sayre wedding ... all sorts of news.”

rickyyng:

Ricky was just making his way around golden pine, actually looking at something above him for a moment when he felt something, or rather someone, bump into his chest.  Looking down as she said his name, he couldn’t help but smile in return.  “Eva, darling.  It has been far too long.  And what else?  My very single person needs to go out sometimes.”

     “well it sounds like we’re on the same boat this evening -- i’m desperate for a night out and the friend who was supposed to come with me bailed. join me?”
