Open Starter: One and Only (Genevieve)

Genevieve wrinkles her nose, coloring happily and kicking her legs quietly under the table. She’d learned you had to be quiet in a library, she knew that, and she really was behaving.

She brushes some hair out of her face a bit as she colors, noticing somewhere along the line that someone appears to be… staring at her.

“Y’know, Tigger taught me you should always be you, and that there’s only ever one of you. So if I’m the only me, even if people stare, at least I know I’m…” She pauses, thinking of the world. “Original! At least I know I’m not a copycat when people stare at me funny.”

[frxstybxy]

“Oh, I um— I hope it didn’t seem like I was staring funny. I just... observe people a lot” Theo cleared his throat, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly, and playing with the eraser that was currently resting on the desk. 

“But yes, you’re absolutely right. I guess everyone is... special in their own way. I personally think it’s a good thing”

[brcverthcn-ibelieve]

“If it makes you happy, then it’s not a waste!”

[frxstybxy]

“But what if I don’t know what makes me happy?” Theo mumbled, fiddling with the cape that his father had given him before he left. “I mean, I’m basically immortal, so how do I find what’s gonna make me happy like.... eternally? I think that would be the real waste”

[frxstybxy]

What do you think about Pitch Black's daughter?

Huh? Oh, I don’t think about her. I don’t want to think about her.

"Theo! It's been so long. I missed. Now, open your mouth, so I can inspect your teeth." - Gwen

Theo laughs a bit. “Hey, Gwen! I missed you too, but I assure you, my teeth are fine. I take good care of them now, thanks to you!”

[frxstybxy]

"Theo!" Quinn yelled out, tackling him in a hug. "I missed you greatly. How's Auradon treating you?" -- @sandtodreams

“Oh my god, Quinn, you’re finally here, thank god!” Theodore hugged her back, letting out a slight chuckle. “I missed you too. Auradon has been… alright. I’ve talked to like, one person since I’ve gotten here, but I’ve been managing. Let’s just say that it’s… very different from home.

[sandtodreams]

“I know right? I don’t know people here manage it.” Quinn laughed, ruffling his hair. “They’re really…  uptight but I understand why, especially since there’s so many students here. But you can add one more person to your talking list.” She sighed, shaking her head in delight. “Has anyone giving you trouble?”

[frxstybxy]

“Me neither. It’s so... warm here. And people are... strange.” Theodore laughs when Quinn ruffles his hair and he moves out of the way a bit because it tickles.  “They are uptight, it’s almost stressful. Especially since back home.. well, my dad made sure we had as little rules as possible” he starts fiddling with his sleeve a bit. “To reassure you, no one has been giving me any trouble... yet. I haven’t talked to enough people for that.”

We love an awkward queen!

“Not completely human?” Now Yawen was growing even more curious about him and she looked him over. “You look human, but I suppose magic is like that.” She smiled a bit. 

“Well that’s the best kind. You don’t think your life is interesting but I bet if you tell me more about it, I’ll find it very interesting.” She hummed.

[frxstybxy]

Theodore chuckles ever so slightly. “Well, th-that’s because my dad also looks... like a human. He used to be one- I mean, until the moon chose him.” He smiles a bit, crossing his arms. Slowly, his stutter was starting to fade off as he was becoming less uncomfortable and more sure of himself. “Now, he’s be-better known as Jack Frost, the guardian of fun. I don’t know how much you... know about him, but he is a magical being. And he possesses snow powers- hence why I seem to handle the cold of my home better than the heat of Auradon. Where I live there aren’t... really other humans so uh- yeah, all of this is pretty new to me.” 

“I am a future guardian, but in the meantime, I just observe. I’ve been sent here to... learn to interact with people my age.” 

[frxstybxy]

"Theo!" Quinn yelled out, tackling him in a hug. "I missed you greatly. How's Auradon treating you?" -- @sandtodreams

“Oh my god, Quinn, you’re finally here, thank god!” Theodore hugged her back, letting out a slight chuckle. “I missed you too. Auradon has been... alright. I’ve talked to like, one person since I’ve gotten here, but I’ve been managing. Let’s just say that it’s... very different from home.

Yawen looked at the other like he was the first person she’s ever seen. No one had ever told her that they didn’t care, that she didn’t have to be perfect. It was a giant relief that he was being honest and that she didn’t have to be this dainty little thing with him. 

Yawen giggled as he got nervous again and covered her mouth, looking up at him. “I guess I get it. Magic exists so you must have some kind of magic element involved.” She grinned. He was cute with his stuttering and nervousness and she hummed softly. “You must be a very interesting person.”

[frxstybxy]

Theodore let out a sigh chuckle. “I guess you could... say that. Let’s just... let’s just say that I’m not... well, human.” He smiled a bit. “Well uh- not completely” he added, fiddling with his sleeve. He then shook his head, almost laughing.

“Oh, no, probably not. My life isn’t as interesting as it seems- at least to me.”

Yawen was waiting for him to respond, observing him. She noticed his clothes and wondered how he was still standing. She furrowed her eyebrows and hummed a bit, nodding her head as she stood up straight. “It’s a habit I have from home. If it’s not ladylike, then I apologize for it. Have to be perfect.” She murmured, taking a step away from the other and smoothing down her skirt again, but out of nerves this time around.

She glanced back to him before running her fingers into her hair, some loose grass falling out of her hair. “You’re not hot?” She asked, tilting her head to the side. “I-I mean you’re not not hot but uh… I mean temperature wise you’re not hot? Under the warm clothes?” She asked, tilting her head to the side as she stumbled over her words.

[frxstybxy]

Theodore was quick to frown at Yawen’s instant answer, and for a few seconds, his stutter dropped, as he was no longer overthinking his words. 

“No one is perfect, though. No one should put that pressure on you, because it is unattainable to living beings. It’s in our nature to be imperfect. You don’t have to apologize to me for not being ladylike- I frankly don’t care” he addressed her a small smile. At her question though, his new found confidence was quick to disappear into thin air, and he was, once again, at lost of words. He wasn’t quite sure how to explain it how to make himself look like an alien of some sort.

“It’s... complicated. To.. uh, answer your question... yes, yes I am extremely hot. The temperature in Auradon is.. unbearably warm, but the... clothes I’m wearing keep me cool... somehow.” He started nervously fiddling with the hem of his shirt. “I-I swear, it’s not as weird as it sounds.”

Yawen looked him over as she at up, folding her hands in her lap. She found it a little amusing that he couldn’t seem to speak and she hummed, standing up.

“Are you okay?” She asked him, peering at him with a raised eyebrow, her voice soft. Yawen shifted a bit on her feet before just deciding to kick off her shoes, placing her hands on her hips.

“It’s okay, you know. I know it was an accident. The grass and flowers were so high here that I must have been invisible.” She giggled, holding her hands out before spinning in a circle. 

She stopped, however, when she remembered she was in front of someone, cheeks flushing a dark shade of red.

“Oh! Sorry!” She exclaimed, bowing softly in apology.

[frxstybxy]

For a while, Theodore didn’t answer. He didn’t know how to answer. Was there a specific way of talking in Auradon? How did people of his age even talk? Was it normally or was there a lingo? He really didn’t want to look like an outsider- although he’d probably already failed on that one. He was sweating, and he couldn’t tell if it was because of his anxiety or because the temperature in Auradon was way to hot, in his opinion. He cleared his throat and tried again.

“Oh uh... yeah, yeah I’m fine. I was just- j-just... not expecting that.” He admitted, messing with his hair. It was so weird to talk to someone his age, to a girl his age. The only girl until now he’d known was Tooth. He probably looked like a fish out of water, especially with the warm clothes he was wearing. Still, je attempted to play it off.

“You’re right, the... grass is pretty high. I’ve never seen something like it before” or grass at all, to be fair, but he kept that to himself. He watched her curiously as she started twirling around, and his eyebrows furrowed when she bowed to him. “No.. no need to apologize or... bow down. You’re fine”

Flowers in Bloom

Yawen smiled as she sat in the garden of Auradon Prep, looking over all of the flowers that surrounded her. She was happy there, surrounded by beautiful flowers and her parent snot there to berate her about the dirt getting onto her dress. 

She ran her hands over the grass, plucking a few strands before she decided to lay back, making the experience that much better. She made sure her dress was straightened out and in order, smiling as the flowers seemed like they were taller than she was. 

She laid there for what felt like hours, her eyes drifting shut as she enjoyed the peace and quiet. That is, until she felt someone kicking her legs. Her eyes snapped open, only to come face to face with a boy, her cheeks flushing red.

“Wh-what are you doing?”

Auradon was, to say the least, an extremely confusing place for Theodore. The sun was too bright, the temperature was too hot, and there were far too many people. He couldn’t find his way through the school nor the campus, and he had to idea how to interact with the students. The Guardians had judged that it was best for him to learn to be around people his own age, but so far, it wasn’t going quite well. The contrast between home and here was too big, and he knew that he’d take a while to adapt. 

After wandering around for what felt forever, he ended up in what seemed to be a garden, at least from what he knew based on the small research he had done prior to coming here, and was shocked to see how green the place was. There were plants everywhere, and not one trace of snow. As he walked closer, he knelt down to touch the green thing that seemed to cover the ground. The texture was so strange and unusual, and yet so intriguing. Standing up, he started kicking it a bit as he continued to walk. However, in his act, he didn’t notice that someone was lying near by, and he accidentally caught himself kicking their leg in the process. Theodore’s first instinct was to gasp and take a few steps back. He opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out of it. His hands started moving frantically as he tried to find the words. 

“O-oh m-my god, I-I am so sorry, I ju-just- I u-uh-” his mouth closed, unable to say more.
