Arynn blinked for what felt like several, far too long seconds. “My–uh, my facial features?” He repeated; a bit taken aback by her words and far too rusty at this game than he liked. “Y-Yeah! I mean, I’ll definitely come by and check the place out next chance I get.” He quickly added and gave the woman a smile. “Hey, maybe I’ll bring something baked from around the shop - so we can snack on something that wasn’t shadily acquired.” He joked with a small laugh.

As the conversation shifted, he felt himself hum and lick his lips from his nerves. “Uh, I’m not really sure. I mean, I wasn’t exactly the biggest believer before… all of this. Now that I’m starting to understand what really goes on around here… I guess it would be kind of silly to not believe in some form, right?” He shrugged his shoulders slightly.

Eve giggled abit“ Good. I’ll be waiting for your arrival when that time does come,” she nodded. She smiled and spoke softly “I’d like that very much. Definitely better than the stolen goods from the machine,”  she nodded.

As she listened to Arynn’s words, she couldn’t help but to think about everything she went through for centuries because of HIM. Deep down she was angry about it and the other half of her felt that, that was what she deserved. To be punished, banished to Earth away from the garden because of that apple. Eve shrugged her shoulders “Honestly...I don’t know what to believe anymore. Everything has changed and there’s no type of guidance. I’m brought back to life for christ sake. There has to be some penalty for that and yet...he is nowhere to be found to do so,” she shrugged.

Ah yes. Of course, the Garden on Earth was the local greenhouse and flower shop. He should have pieced that together, but sometimes his brain was less than stellar at doing simple tasks. “Oh… yeah, I - I should have known that. Duh.” He stated and shook his head a couple times.

“Yeah, I guess it makes sense that He would exist…” Arynn stated, but let out a slow sigh. “It’s just… kind of a big thing to wrap your head around when faced with concrete evidence that something actually exists when all you had was faith-based belief to go on before, y’know?” He tried to explain, fidgeting his hands together for a moment. “I like that.” He smiled softly as she spoke about just appreciating things as they were in that moment. “I agree, too. I always try to enjoy all the little things every day.”

Eve laughed abit and shook her head “ You should stop by sometime. I wouldn’t mind seeing your facial features everyday,” she smiled.

She nodded understanding him “ Yeah, I get it. To be honest...I’ve never even seen God or at least I have but I can’t really remember what he looks like. I’ve heard his voice but...it’s been so long that it just fades away. But tell me something...do you still believe in him?” she asked abit curious as her smile slowly faded abit. Eve didn’t know rather to believe him or not anymore. He did banish her from the garden and after, never heard from him again. She then quickly revealed a soft smile on her face and nodded. “Good because if you don’t stop looking down at everything, you’ll always miss what’s up. And what’s up here is beautiful,” she said.

“…” Mando paused as he pondered on the young woman’s words. Sure, maybe the majority of people would find that sad. However, when the wendigo thought on it, all he could think of was peace. “Lucky… I only get that chance at work and… well, I guess I’m never really alone,” Mando tried to jest. A dark joke perhaps, although he’d argue it was a fact too.

Chuckling at Eve’s words, Mando shook his head bashfully. “You give me too much credit. I just happened to almost walk over you,” the wendigo joked. “It’s no biggie. My passion was mechanics for a while, but the gravedigging pays better.”

Eve raised her brow in confusion “ Oh, you have a lot of brothers and sisters? Or...children?” she asked him. She then shrugged her shoulders “ I mean I’ve only ever had a man and well...nature. So, it was more of the peaceful sounds of nature than the voice of someone I disliked speaking into my ear. I know it may sound abit sad but...I much rather liked it that way,” she smiled softly. 

“ Well walked over on or not. I’ve completely recovered from almost getting pneumonia because of you. Which I’ve never experienced before but thank you again,” she nodded. Shen then wondered about the gravedigging job as she took another sip of her coffee. “ So...how is the gravedigging job going for you now? Other than the pay and your well managed physical appearance,” she said with a smiled.

Alex pouted as the other took the bottle from her, not coordinated enough to tell her to stop. She pulled herself to her feet all the same, not sure what she was doing, but knowing that she was tired of sitting near the bar and getting judged by her work colleagues. They’d made it clear that she couldn’t come back to work in the current state, and they really weren’t all that happy with serving her either.

“Works for me, whatever…” She muttered, following after the other. “So, you always pick up drunks outside of bars?”

Eve smiled softly at her after removing the drink from her lips, happy that she agreed to come with her. She started walking while holding the bottle in her hand as she led her to her car. Once they got to the car she chuckled abit and shook her head “ Pretty hum-I mean people yes,” she nodded. Trying to learn alittle better on not calling God’s children on earth, humans. As told it’s not usual for a person to call other people that in the modern world or at all. 

“Plus, I figured you could use some company and...so could I,” she shrugged before opening up the passengers side of the door.  She smiled at her as she watched her make her way over “ You always go home with strangers?” she asked.

“Oh.” Arynn blinked for a moment. “Well that’s, that’s really awesome. Seriously. It’s good that you have someone that helped you get adjusted to all of this and get on your feet.” He offered her a smile. “Eden’s Garden on Earth?” He questioned for a moment as he tried to mull over the different establishments throughout the Peaks. “Where exactly is that?” He finally asked.

Moments later her confused expression and quick joking retort had him stammering slightly. “What? No - No, I don’t want to be Adam’s next wife; I can’t even be a wife, I’m a guy, I’d be a husband… but no, not after hearing you talk about the way you have. I don’t want him either.” He quickly shook his head. “I really don’t need, uh, G-God watching over me… anymore than he is? He… uh, He does, right? Or is that another thing that we got wrong over the years?”

Eve nodded in agreement “ Yeah, I’m very grateful. You should meet-well nevermind you can’t so,” she shrugged. She nodded quickly “ Mhm...it’s the flower shop around the corner. It’s called Eden’s Garden. I’ve never actually met her before but I knew Eden was ment to be on this earth and it was kinda like, like...she called out to me or something,” she said as she thought about the garden for a moment with a warm smile.

Eve smiled at his response, he was adorable in actually answering the question. She nodded “ I thought so,” she said with abit of a chuckle. “Oh no! There is a some sort of God, that you speak of. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here. Not sure of where he is or if he even is still...ya know,” she shrugged. Referring to him being dead. “ But for now...I am here, your here, and this beautiful Earth is here. We should appreciate all of this while we still can, “ she said as she gestered toward everyone and everything in the shop.

“Yes, humans existing,” he chuckled lowly, shaking his head in a way that could be misunderstood as if he was amused by her choice of words… although he was terrified. The wendigo felt as if it was a loud alarm that called him out as other-than-human… something, far from human even. Although there was a possibility she might’ve been a witch or huntress and may be testing the waters to see if he was anything? Sadly, Mando wasn’t brave enough to find out.

Thankfully, the topic of vehicles came about. “Yea? There’s a warehouse about two hours Northeast that you might find it for cheaper. I can install it for you and you don’t need to worry about paying for the labor,” he offered with a friendly smile… A smile that faltered when her gaze met his and she questioned how he’d found her. Answering that he could sense might’ve creeped any normal human out, so Mando had to be quick to answer. “I was passing by—” he chuckled awkwardly before shaking his head. “—and came in to get some flowers but found no one at the front. I was afraid whoever was tending to the place had ran into some trouble…”

“ Yeah, I’m so use to being alone alot. So I have lots of time on my hands to admire everything and just think,” Eve said while shrugging her shoulders. Even though she was always with Adam in that garden, there was times she always felt alone. So getting more in touch with nature was what kept her sane every other day. 

Eve tilted her head abit and smiled “ Wha-well you just keep getting better. First you save me from the storm and now you offer to fix my car for free?” she asked before walking around the counter. She nodded as she listened to his response on how he found her. She could tell something was up with him and she was trying to decided rather or not to ask. But this time, she held it in. “ Since you’ve done soo much for me, how about I send you home with a beautiful bouquet of flowers for your girlfriend. Whatever you want, it’s on me,” she nodded.

“Wha–no, I just. Well, you know, you said you just came back from the literal dead… and given who you are, I don’t know, I guess I just immediately assumed you weren’t up-to-speed with all the modern…ness of the world??” Arynn tried to explain and scratched his head some.

“Oh, I don’t know, I’ve always been kind of submissive….” The remark left his lips before his brain had even a moment to process that Eve hadn’t meant her words in that specific context so literally. He quickly closed his mouth with a small pop before pursing his lips a brief second. “That must be hard - having some sort of preordained type of existence.” He finally spoke now that his brain had caught up with itself.

Eve nodded her head as she thought about all the things she was updated on. Some she learned on her own and some she gained from others. “ Well... I have a little birdie updating me on new life. Helping me get a car, apartment, and a job. I ended up quitting my first job after the first day because I found Eden’s Garden on earth. So, I thought working at Eden’s Garden would be perfect for me. I love a good garden,” she smiled. She then shrugged “ So I’m mostly up to date with alot of things and slowly adjusting these past few months,” she said. 

She raised her brow in a bit confusion “ Do you want to be Adam’s next wife?” she joked and suddenly a smile appeared across her face. She then sighed abit and looked at the menu “ I mean yeah, I’ve done it for centuries and now... I could understand why Lilith did what she did,” she said. She thought about it for a moment as she stared passed the menu.

Mando himself took a step backwards when Eve seemed startled by him. For a moment, he even wondered if he had spoken with the wrong voice, looked like the gluttony within or just… not human. However, he quickly remembered even humans feared humans. “Sorry about that,” he apologized, rubbing the back of his neck with a shy chuckle.

Once she seemed to remember him, however, the bright smile wouldn’t disappear off the wendigo’s features. “Hey,” he greeted again happily. Her positivity with what he was able to do for her—albeit a very small task—caused the wendigo to blush bashfully. It felt wrong taking the credit, even though it was true, when his original mission had been to take people for General Zeldris and Hell’s Army. “They are,” he affirmed when asked how his family was. “How about you though? Was the car salvageable?” 

Eve shook her head as she placed her coffee on the counter “ No, your good. Sometimes I get lost in my own head after a second and forget that there are other humas existing,” she laughed. 

“ That’s good. There were alot of people in need and I’ve learned that family always comes first. I’m just grateful that you took the time out to help a woman in distress, so thank you again for that. I probably would’ve froze to death if it weren’t for you so,” she nodded. She thought about it for a moment and shrugged her shoulders “ Well... it’s up and running and I didn’t hit the tree too hard. So that’s a plus! But I still need a bumper, that I can’t afford right now. Other than that I am fine, I’m here, and well. So thanks for asking,” she said before giving him a sweet smile. She looked around for a quick second then back at him “ Wait, how did you know I was here?” she asked him,sounding abit suprised he found her.

“Oh, right, that concept wasn’t around back then… uh, around here we kind of assume people are innocent until they are proven to be guilty. Or, well, we’re supposed to.” He chuckled some. He blinked some at her answer however. “Wait, you’re not sleeping in your car, are you??” He asked with concern and a frown upon his face. “Wait - you have a car?” He asked now with confusion.

As she dismissed Adam, Arynn chuckled once more to himself. “Was he really that terrible of a guy?” He asked curiously, leaning back against the countertop behind him and humming to himself.

Eve smiled as she listened to his explaination “ I remember once...humans use to burn other humans without the proof of innocence. You people were very confused. It’s soo backwards now. But I like your way better,” she nodded. She laughed and shook her head “ What makes you think I’m sleeping in my car? No, I just crashed it in the storm silly,” she said. She looked around abit before looking back at him “ Am I not suppose to have a car?” she asked as she tilted her head abit.

Her arms are on the counter, and she has her head resting on her knuckles. “Well it’s like you read in the books...I was only made for Adam. I was literally made from Adam by God. So just imagine being made for a man only to serve him, all the time. It was exhausting after awhile and I’ve...always felt like I had no purpose while being with him. Well except for what the man upstairs wanted me to do. Other than that, I just need to live my life on my own. Make my own choices and become my on human-I mean person,” she nodded.

The sight of the young woman was a welcome one. He’d wondered what had become of her after the town was released from confinement within the hospital - especially after being rather blatantly informed of her identity as the Eve from the Garden.As she smiled and greeted him, he gave her a soft chuckle. “Hey, I’m innocent until proven guilty.” He remarked before smiling back. “Good to see you’re doing alright, Eve. How are you, y’know, adjusting to everything?” He gestured vaguely. “Any word on, uh, y’know, Adam?” He asked, glancing around to be sure he didn’t need to lower his voice first.

Eve laughed abit then realized she didn’t understand by what he ment “ Wait, what do you mean by that?” she asked him to clarify.  She then nodded “ Well, aside from it still being cold but not as cold as it was that day...I’m pretty warm and I got my car back up and running. So I’m pretty good,” she smiled. 

Eve raised her brow in abit of confusion as to why he lowered his voice. She assumed what he was saying to her was about to be very top secret. Then once she realized it was about the whereabouts of Adam, she rolled her eyes and shook her head. “ Oh! No need to whisper his name. He doesn’t scare me. As a matter of fact, I’m happy he’s away from me. I can now be free of him and do whatever I want, whenever I want, with whomever I want. So I’m not hoping to see him anytime soon. Honestly, I hope he finds Lilith first without even trying to. Maybe they could get back together and live a happy dark life,” she smiled and shrugged her shoulders.

Creation River Park - @risingpeaksreblogs

Rowan watched the water plap against the river bank's edge below. He saw someone ahead, but he wasn't too concerned. The sun cut through mostly bare bare branches, some only having the smallest hint of leaves beginning to grow. The breeze carried unscented air; he made sure to keep toward the breeze. There was nothing more uncomfortable than being able to smell someone from afar, and it unnerved him how he was already close enough to hear their heart beat.

But it was the snapping of fallen twigs, the crunch of dead leaves that caught his attention. "Might wanna rethink going to the river's edge that way," he said, his voice just under a yell. "There are safer ways than going through the trees which haven't been trimmed yet."

[flowersforeve]

Eve loved to be around nature as much as she could. She loved the sounds of the ocean, the smell of the crisp air, and the birds chirping. It always made her feel calm and reminded her of the Garden of Eden. As she stood there and watched the waves in the water and the trees sway, she closed her eyes to imagine herself in the garden again.

After abit, she thought it was time to go back to where she came from and started walking through the trees. Eve then stopped when she heard a voice speak towards her. She looked over and seen a man, looking her way. “ I’m sorry what?” she asked to make sure she heard him right. After a second of realizing what he had just said, she turned more to face him. “ Oh right. It’s okay I can handle the trees. But thank you for the heads up stranger,” she smiled.

“You sure you don’t want a fritter or something to go with that? I promise - I’m getting much better at making them now!” Arynn questioned the customer at his counter before laughing some and waving them off after they finished their purchase of a coffee and a couple of comic books.

Letting out a small sigh, he leaned against the countertop and gazed out the storefront at the mounds of snow that didn’t look like they were going anywhere anytime soon. Of course, however, as soon as the roads cleared up enough for the town to resume their lives, that meant he had to return to work.

Glancing around at the rather slow day they were having, he thumbed through  a small e-reader tablet he’d painstakingly photographed and copied the pages of Zara’s personal bestiary and journal into. He had promised her he would review the information contained within its pages, and he had meant it. He really did want to learn everything he could. The original was much safer at his home, where it didn’t run the risk of accidental coffee or sweets batter getting spilled upon it as he moseyed about his day. A small bell dinging from the store doors opening up had him greeting the customer on command before glancing up. “Welcome to Geeks & Freaks.”

Eve was on her lunch break and wanted to visit a different place, other than the one she’s been constantly going to. She wanted to go to a place that was closer, more of a walking distance. She got a whiff off strong coffee and abit of sweetness. So she followed the smell, right into the door. Eve walked up to the counter and looked around before she could acknowledge the greeting. 

She smiled “ That’s an interesting name,” she said before seeing it was the guy from the hospital. “ Oh heyyy candy theif man,” she smiled even bigger.

“I’m just peachy, thanks for the concern…” She muttered, tipping the bottle back again, and wincing at the burn to the back of her throat. Soon it settled and she let out a satisfied groan, her limbs feeling that little bit more uncoordinated. “Though I’d take any of the other options if you were interested in them.” Just to not feel anything. That was all she wanted.

Eve nodded as she watched her chug down a bottle as much as he could. She walked closer to her and leaned against the wall beside her. She looked at her for a moment and studied her abit. She looked like she needed help in some way and Eve couldn’t help but to at least try. Eve turned on her side to face her more “ Well... I will take a few sips of that first off. As much as I love a good fight, I don’t have enough energy for that. Buut...if you want? You can come home with me,” she said before removing herself from the wall and getting closer to her. She grabbed the bottle and drunk from it before looking at her “ So what do ya say?”

Open Starter @risingpeaksreblogs​

Alexandra stared at the bottom of her glass of whiskey, trying to will the infusion of wolfsbane to work faster, not feeling the familiar warmth she’d come to welcome over the past few days yet. It was only the first drink of the day, so it was still young. Her colleagues had told her to take time off, had begged her to go home to her father, the word tasting like dirt in her mouth, and she resisted the urge to tell them that he wasn’t her father. She’d forced the words down plenty when he’d tried to talk to her, tried to talk to Kaden. There was so much anger in the James household right now and whiskey was a pretty good way of drowning it out.

Announcing she was just buying the whole bottle, she moved behind the counter to grab the bottle, slamming the cash onto the counter before she left. It was still freezing outside, but she didn’t care.

Drinking from the bottle now as she leant outside the bar, she stared down at the person looking at her. “Unless you’re gonna fight me, fuck me, or drink with me in silence, keep walking.”

[flowersforeve]

Eve was on her way to the parking lot to her car. She had came from work and the bar was almost right next to the flower shop. She then slowed down when she saw a woman, looking drunk and maybe needing help. Eve walked closer to the woman, wanting to ask if she was okay but the woman spoke before her. “Uhm...as much as I would love to do all of that, I was just going to ask were you okay? Do you need a ride home or anything?” she asked her.

Unlikely Friends [Mando||Eve]

@flowersforeve​

It was his first night back at work and yet Mando did more maintance than gravedigging… By the time the Sun came up, the snow had been shoveled out, the tombstones had been cleaned and fresh winter flowers had been left beside every single one of them. He was beat, but after a quick snack, he was ready to head home.

Before doing so, however, he’d decided to stop by a flower shop that was just opening to bring a bouquet home. Even they needed cheering up. Walking into it once the sign had been switched to open, the wendigo paused as he recognized the scent of the person within… and later the face. 

“Eve!” he greeted her with a friendly smile. “Are you ok? Sorry I kind of ran off on you that night… I was worried about my mother and grandfather,” he lied, having really scurried off to hide from the shame that he’d helped her to safety when he should’ve given her to his General at least. “They’re older so, you know, my sister and I worry about them.”

Eve was in her own element at the flower shop. Everyday she would come in and get caught up in smelling the flowers before opening. It always helped her wake up more in the morning while she sipped on her coffee. At the time, she was the only one working in the morning. So she went on ahead to set up everything and turn over the closed sign to open. 

Once she turned from the door and walked towards the counter,she stopped to smell more of the flowers. Particularly the roses, since they were always her favorite. She was interrupted by a mans voice and jumped abit before turning to see who it was. “ Jesus! I mean-sorry, you scared me abit,” she said as she shook her head. Then realized who he was and a big smile appeared across her face “ Mando hiii...oh no! Your fine. You got me where I needed to be and that’s all that matters,” she nodded. She walked closer to him “ But is your family okay at least?” she asked him.

There was a moment where Arynn’s expression held both intrigue and terror at the same time, but it quickly passed into one of confusion. Glancing around them, even though it didn’t seem that anyone wanted to hang out in their particular hallway, he adjusted himself on the bench and faced her more properly.

“Uh, well, see the thing is - I am just now really starting to get in on all of this. Most of the people around here probably know of the Garden, but they know of it from… you know, scripture and church.” He cleared his throat some. There was a moment of realization as the woman spoke that all but confirmed the thoughts that had been swirling in his mind for the past several weeks. If this woman, had come from the Garden and was banished then that meant God was real. Didn’t it? As she introduced herself as Eve, it even further cemented things.

“Eve, as in, Adam and Eve, right? I mean, it’s nice to meet you - and I appreciate your offer, a hundred percent. Sorry, just give me a moment. The majority of, er, humans around here like me - all of this–” He kind of gestured over her, “–is the stuff of myth or-or religious story.” He tried to explain the best he could manage to put into words. “I just mean, maybe you should just go with ‘Eve’ and not mentioned the Garden to just anybody you’re talking, yeah?” He furrowed his brow some. “How… erm, how are you still, you know, alive?” He questioned finally. “Not to be rude or anything!” He added quickly.

Eve raised her brows as she saw his reaction to her response, wondering of what he was bout to say. She then nodded once he finally spoke, listening to his words very carefully. “ Which is only half true. I’ve heard lots of people think that god either killed us, banished us to hell, sent us to...prison heaven-whatever that looks like, or some type of oblivion, never to be seen. But all he did was just send us down to earth,” she shrugged.

“ Mhm...except it’s just me. I have noo idea where Adam is honestly,” she shook her head as she thought for a moment of where he could be. They didn’t die together and were buried in different places. She nodded as she gave him a moment before he spoke again. She raised her brow “ Wh-why should I hide myself from the world? Most people when they know who I am are happy with it or they call me crazy,” she shrugged. Then she shook her head “ But I’m fine with people knowing. I have nothing to hide,” she said with a soft smile.  “ Oh! Well I lived on earth for awhile and then I died. I’m not sure of how it all goes with the bringing people back from the dead but I was literally pulled from my grave to be back here. But Adam...I’m not so sure if he was pulled too because I haven’t seen him since I’ve been here. I mean I can’t tell you why I’m really here but... it sure does feel good to be back,” she nodded with a sigh of relief.

“What is it my dear, Eve? You look as if you see a ghost.” She taunts almost amused by the idea of it, though it would be ironic for the woman to be shocked to find Lilith. It was more unusual that Eve would be out of Heaven, what was the play there? 

“Oh weak with no spine…just as remember.” Lilith answers shimmering from her current placement to behind the human pushing her forward slightly. “Oh don’t try to flee, Pet. It makes you look bad and givens all women a bad look.”

Eve had turned aroundand started walkking away from Lilith, but had stopped in her tracks once she heard her speak to her once more. She bit her lip as she tried to control herself. It was too cold out to pick a fight with anyone and all she wished for was a safe, warm place to stay overnight. 

Once she felt the touch of Lilith’s had on her back and heard Lilith’s comment about her being a pet, Eve had quickly turned around to face her. “ You know what’s your problem Lilith? Are you that fucking upset over something that happened centuries ago? Give it up already. You lost him and he found someone else better. Move on and find another Adam! If you wanted him sooo bad, you would’ve did like god said and obeyed the fuck out of him. So technically this is allll your fault my queen,” she emphasized to her. Eve let Lilith get up under her skin, causing her to let alittle of her forever held in anger from all of this. She was tired of Adam and Lilith put together.
