MOLLY REYNOLDS.

i love the smell of 𝔤𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔢, i light the match to taste the heat... i ride the edge, my speed goes in the red hot blood, these veins, my 𝓅𝓁𝑒𝒶𝓈𝓊𝓇𝑒 is their pain. i love to watch these 𝔠𝔞𝔰𝔱𝔩𝔢𝔰 burn - their golden ashes turn to dirt... i've always liked to play with 𝖋𝖎𝖗𝖊 !

“You have a point.” He shrugged. He imagined if he was eternal that age wouldn’t make any kind of difference so why count it? “South Korea? Bet that was interesting.” He smiled to him. “I didn’t know you had a brother.”

“It was.” Molly’s still grinning when Nate follows up on the topic of her brother, and while that grin doesn’t quite fade it does lose a bit of it’s near-manic quality. “He’s my twin, actually,” she says, her tone still casual. “But I haven’t seen him since before we met.”

Obviously, when Kai returned he was intent on making a spectacle of it. He figured the public singing, otherwise known as karaoke, at Mystic Falls’ most poppin’ restaurant was certainly a good enough start. He didn’t exactly know how these things worked but they kept calling names and he was getting impatient so he yanked the guy who was ascending the stairs off of them, probably concussed him a lil’ but he certainly had the crowds attention. “Thank you, thank you.” He starts, putting his hand up as if to quiet the sound of applause of which, there was none. “This one is for all the bitches that thought they’d seen the last of me. So, without further adieu, here’s The Boys Are Back from High School Musical 3.” @havocwreaked​

Molly had been quite disappointed to hear that Kai Parker was no more when she’d been returned from the dead. She didn’t care for him one way or the other, but from what she had heard he was someone who enjoyed the exact same brand of fun as her, and it was getting harder and harder to find those these days. Mystic Falls was getting excruciatingly boring, and nothing good ever happened to people around her when Molly was bored. Thankfully for them - or possibly not - her interest was piqued by the man stepping onto the stage. “Take your shirt off!” She yelled amidst the silence of the other patrons, before waiting to see what he would do.

“I’m saying, he’d probably be so grateful that he’d try extra hard and maybe even sell his soul,” he said with a little chuckle, before adding, “You’re way higher on the scale, if that’s what you want me to say,” he threw in a playful wink, only to pause, and nod. “It might be. But it might be something else entirely.” If he was being honest, he didn’t know what exactly he was doing, but he knew he was attracted to Molly since the first day he saw her. Now, he could finally just act on it.

“Now that sounds more enticing.” Molly smirks. If she hadn’t had such a bad experience with Clara, and dying in general, she might have considered taking the cure and then dying for real just to go to Hell and become one if she ever got into a situation that required her to have more power. Collecting souls sounded fun, if nothing else. She smirks when he admits he doesn’t know where this is going, and she traces his jawline with her nail as she speaks. Provocative? Probably, but personal space is a nonexistent concept to the hybrid. “Well, then. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what it turns into, won’t we?”

* The question allowed her time to think. For herself she would probably have chosen Portugal as an easy holiday away but the way that Molly held herself allowed her to believe she liked a little danger and a bit of a challenge that South Korea could pose as the type of country it was. “South Korea for you. I think you’d kick ass there.” She responded finally. “Though where I’d choose to go if I had the choice would easily be Japan. I’m a bit of a video game nerd but also it’s meant to be real pretty.”

“Too right you are,” Molly agrees, deciding on the spot that South Korea’s where she’ll go. Maybe she’ll slip across the North Korean border, just to say she’s done it. “Japan, huh? I’ve heard it’s super pretty. And I bet the sushi’s awesome, so that’s a bonus. I don’t know shit about video games, though. Art is my hobby of choice.”

* “I agree. Why waste energy trying to please people when you can just be yourself?” She questioned with a shrug of her shoulders. “I don’t want to imagine what native’s threshold for fucked up is. That’s too scary even imagine.” She commented with a laugh.

“Exactly!” Molly snaps her fingers in Ruby’s direction, signifying her agreement. “Considering the hellmouth opening is seen as a pleasant memory now... no, you probably do not,” she remarks, an amused glint in her eye.

“Well, happy birthday.” He shifted slightly underneath her to get his wallet from his back pocket and paid the bartender. “Can’t say I know the whole dying and timelines thing.” He smiled to her with a shake of his head. “And what exactly have you been up to for your birthday celebrations?” He paused. “Or do I not want to know?”

“Thanks.” The hybrid grins. “Yeah. Oh well, no need to let it throw a wrench in the celebrations - I’m gonna be twenty-four forever, so what does it matter?” When he debates recanting his question Molly chuckles, using one hand to brush the hair out of his face as she speaks. “It hasn’t been entirely carnage. I treated myself a little time in South Korea, which was cool. Brought back lots of face masks. I tried to find my brother, too, see if he wanted to join in, but I guess he’s still gone and fucked off somewhere beyond my reach.”

Nate glanced up to her and just stared at her for a moment. The worst part being that he hadn’t even taken her off of his lap which he probably should have done immediately and now it felt too late to do. “Don’t get ahead of yourself.” He offered a smile and leaned back a little so he could actually get the bartender’s attention to order them both a new drink. As he always felt with Molly, this was probably a mistake but here he was anyway. “How’s life, Molly?”

“We’ll see if I am or not.” Molly doesn’t balk away from the stare - she lives for discomfort - but allows him to lean away since it’s just to grab the bartender. “Oh, I can’t complain,” she answers his question, “I’ve just been dragging out my birthday celebration. You know, I’m not even sure which birthday it is.” She’s not actually sure why she’s telling him that, as it dips close to one of the few subjects she tends to stay tight-lipped about, but it comes out anyway. “Dying really messes up timelines that way, I guess.”

He considered her point about being gentle and to be honest, he couldn’t actually argue with her on that. Although he may not have seen much worse than that from her, he could imagine. So instead he made a face to say he couldn’t argue with her. “Thanks for the help, again.” He sighed, more annoyed that he had to say again. As much as he didn’t want to be a damsel in distress, Molly had done most of his saving. “At least someone finally sees that girls aren’t the only people who can say me too.” He shrugged. “Want another drink?”

Molly smirks when she sees he gets her point, and her expression turns mollified when he thanks her. “You’re welcome. How many times is this, now? I should really start charging you, you know. Lucky you’re good in bed.” She traces the line of his collarbone absently as they speak, though it’s unclear whether she’s doing it to rile him up or because now she’s thinking about him in bed. Not that she’s lacking in that department, but she certainly wouldn’t say no if they headed that way again. “I’d love one.”

He hadn’t actually seen Molly in the bar at all but it wasn’t exactly surprising to him. She always seemed to pop up near him at times like this. Or just in general. “Molly…” He began to try and warn her not to but it was already too late and her hand was wrapped around the girl’s neck. He looked down at her on the floor and sighed but before he could try to at least help her up, Molly took a seat on his lap and by natural instinct to stop the other falling, he hooked his arm around her waist. He mouthed an apology but the girl was already scuttling away from them and on to the next poor soul presumably. “Did you need to be so violent about it?” He appreciated the assistance in his own way but he didn’t see the need for such manners.  

“Baby, please.” Molly retorts, twinkling blue eyes trailing the girl as she draws herself up and hurries away. Once she’s gone the hybrid turns her gaze on Nate, giving him an almost sympathetic look that makes it clear he should know better than to ask that of her. “That was gentle. My version of gentle, at least.” She takes a sip of her own drink that she’s held on to this entire time before setting it down next to his. “And really, you should be thanking me. This is the Me Too era and people still don’t realize that no means no.”

The girl had been hitting on him for the past two hours on and off and this time, she was practically trying to crawl on to him in the middle of the bar. Even in his tipsy state, he didn’t want to take advantage of the clearly very drunk girl in front of him so he stood up with a sigh. “Look, you’re very pretty, you are, but I’m not interested. It’s nothing personal but I just wanted a quiet drink tonight…” He tried his best to persuade her away but she still kept trying and followed him again to the bar. Nate rubbed his face with a sigh and silently prayed someone would save him…

Molly had been watching that woman throw herself at Nate for the better part of an hour, thoroughly amused at the situation. Of course it was inevitable that she intervened - no means no, after all. Besides, she was a little bit territorial, and Nate was her chew toy, not this girl’s. She just wanted to let him sweat it out for a bit longer, until it was finally time to make her move. “Oh, look at that!” The hybrid says, coming up on the girl who was still trying to make her way into Nate’s lap. She was completely sloshed, and Molly might have felt a little sympathy for her if she was anyone other than herself. Lifting her up by the neck, she hauls the girl off Nate and drops her a few feet away, where she can’t catch herself and ends up sprawling on the floor. “You’re in my seat.” With that, she settles down on Nate’s lap before waiting to see if the woman tries anything else.

“You sure?” he quirked a cocky eyebrow, before lowering his voice and leaning closer to whisper, “Because I’d rate him a solid four.” It wasn’t the bartender’s fault—some people were just not as genetically blessed as Molly and Levi were. He pulled away, only to not so subtly check her out, a flirtatious smirk then tugging at his lips, “I have seen you, yeah,” he commented, taking another sip of his drink, his eyes still on hers.

“Are you suggesting I’m anywhere near a solid four?” Molly questions, one blonde eyebrow raising up dangerously. Doesn’t matter how pretty or useful she finds someone - if they insult her in a way she doesn’t enjoy, they’ll most likely end up without any way to speak. “What’s this? Attention beyond business?” She asks, though the smirk on her face is playful. There could be a button to push here, and Molly loves those.

* “Not a problem, obviously some people don’t know how to take a hint.” She commented with a slight gesture towards the bartender. She tipped her glass toward the other female as a returned silent response to her own silent question. “Having a good birthday, week, month, year?”

“Oh, it’s alright. He’ll learn.” Which absolutely cannot mean anything good for the poor bartender - though, he could be spared if Molly ends up harboring enough dread for the inevitable lecture she’ll get from Spencer if she finds out. “It’s fantastic, as usual. I’m trying to decide between going to Portugal or South Korea as my annual present to myself. What do you think?”

* “Sadly, I can’t read minds even if I did care what people thought.” She joked. It seemed that Ruby was a polar opposite. If Molly liked the brutal truth then Ruby was the harmless lie. Harmless for the most part. “You’re not wrong but it is interesting to watch visitors freak out at something so normal here.”

“Not caring what people think is the really important thing,” Molly notes, realizing that she enjoyed this girl. ‘Like’ would have been too strong of a word, since Molly can count on one hand the people she’s really truly liked, but she certainly appreciates her attitude and wouldn’t want to tear out her tongue if forced to spend more time with her. “That is true,” she admits, “but it’s even more interesting when you find the over-the-top thing that finally freaks out people who are native to town and whose threshold for weird is sky-high.”

“You got a point there, not like you got responsibilities or anythin’,” it wasn’t a dig, it was just the truth. She didn’t have a family, or babies, as far as he knew. She was just being immortal and chilling. “You tryin’ to make the bartender jealous?” he teased, a glint in his eye as he let his eyes wander over her body for the briefest of moments.

“That I do not.” Molly acknowledges, letting out a little scoff when he asks about the bartender. Admittedly her interest is a little piqued - usually he doesn’t pay her that kind of attention. He’s been loyal to his girlfriend, which wasn’t behavior she’d expected from him, but apparently something had changed. “Please,“ she says with a light roll of her eyes, “you’ve seen me. I can do way better than that guy.”

* She made a mental note of Scotland as a place to go in the future perhaps. “Why do I get the feeling you’re not joking with me?” She questioned with a smile on her face. She didn’t really care much what the supernatural did as long as it didn’t involve her. 

“Because despite what people seem to think, I’m not usually a joker.” A liar, sure, but she finds people’s reaction to her own honesty far more amusing than any joke she could come up with. “That’s the other think I like about here - it takes bigger stuff to freak people out.”

* Ruby had probably heard Molly making the hint of it being her birthday to the bartender for a good amount of time that she took matters in to her own hands. She bought a bottle of whatever Molly had been drinking and took it over to her. “Happy birthweek.” She added while sliding the bottle in front of her. She’d been nice enough to her when they last spoke so she figured she could treat her a little.

Molly clapped her hands together and beamed, making a noise of approval as the witch sets the bottle down in front of her. She was planning on swiping her own bottle eventually, but she did feel a little pleased that Ruby had bought and offered the entire bottle after only one conversation. “Why thank you,” she says, pouring more of the clear liquid into her glass before gesturing the bottle towards Ruby, offering her some.

“Only moderate amounts.” technically true. Staying in Mystic Falls, for one, meant that he was continuously sourcing his own entertainment. This town had nothing on the city he was born in. “Tell that to Jan over there,” he gestured at the friendly looking woman, “She’ll string you up high, niceties, Regina.” he soon tutted, completely playful, of course.

“Only moderate amounts is almost worse than none, you know. Getting a taste of fun and still holding yourself back? Boring.” Molly cuts her gaze over to the woman that Max is gesturing at, letting out a little scoff. “I’d prefer stringing her up literally, rather than deal with that kind of tirade.”
