taken by the wind

all your life, you've never seen a woman taken by the wind --- would you stay if she promised you heaven? will you ever win? will you ever win?

     ARLO HAS KNOWN the sheridans ever since he came to kaos for the first time. in fact, he had worked on and off at the bella donna hotel when he first got here, before landing a more permanent gig elsewhere. besides his art, which isn’t nearly as lucrative as arlo would hope, arlo has taken a liking to his career in hospitality— he’s rather good at it, too. he loves talking to people and listening, and having been in kaos for close to two years has given him a plethora of suggestions as to where tourists should venture to. nonetheless, he finds himself lending a helping hand at sophie and lisa’s wedding, standing off to the side and running around if needed. now, of course, he’s leaning behind the makeshift bar at the reception, a jar of cocktail cherries in his hand as he slowly stirs it around and watches people slow dance. he notices the other standing not too far from him, doing precisely the same thing: watching. arlo smirks.

“can i get you something?” he asks, to break the silence. he grabs a spoon and scoops out a cherry, then offers it to the other with a grin. “slow dancing is a bit awkward, isn’t it? sure is romantic, though.”

          RHIANNON SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN SURPRISED TO SEE ARLO AT the wedding. after all, he was so lovable --- of course he has connections to various people across kaos. but knowing that this is NORMAL, that she lives near arlo, that he’ll often pop up at places she goes to? she hasn’t gotten used to it, not yet.

         but she is trying. rhiannon was an emotional person, never able to hide her feelings. in this moment, however, she’s trying. she keeps her face blank, trying not to spot him out of the corner of her eye. ( she missed andres. they weren’t technically anything, but to rhiannon, they were; just enough for his leaving to hurt, to feel like a failure on her part. she felt this way before with arlo, but on a considerably worse scale. ) arlo’s voice snaps her out of the melancholy thoughts. he’s offered her a cherry. he remembers how much she loves them. ❝ ...no, thank you. ❞ she looks at him, trying to offer him a small smile that doesn’t reach her eyes. ❝ ...super awkward. but i think that depends on who you’re dancing with. ❞

          WHILE STANDING OUTSIDE THE CHAPEL, BEFORE THE wedding began, rhiannon had a perpetual smile on her face. how could she not ? she loved weddings, especially ones for a friend. she loved the flowers, the auras of joy and light --- and they gave her hope that there was a person out there for her too, somewhere. but the day wasn’t about HER, of course, it was about sophie. even so, all of the excitement had her fidgeting in a way that made her slip out of the pews to go have a brief smoke. after all, people were still arriving, she had plenty of time for a cigarette. all she’d forgotten was a lighter. almost sheepishly, rhiannon turned to the back of a person nearby, lightly tapping them on the shoulder. ❝ hi. i’m sorry to bother you, i was just wondering if you have a light ? ❞

Greek Mythology | Hecate

Hecate or Hekate is a goddess in Ancient Greek religion and mythology, most often shown holding two torches or a key and in later periods depicted in triple form. She was variously associated with crossroads, entrance-ways, dogs, light, magic, witchcraft, knowledge of herbs and poisonous plants, ghosts, necromancy, and sorcery. She was one of the main deities worshiped in Athenian households as a protective goddess and one who bestowed prosperity and daily blessings on the family. 

The first literature mentioning Hecate is the Theogony by Hesiod: 

Hecate whom Zeus the son of Cronos honored above all. He gave her splendid gifts, to have a share of the earth and the unfruitful sea. She received honor also in starry heaven, and is honored exceedingly by the deathless gods. For to this day, whenever any one of men on earth offers rich sacrifices and prays for favor according to custom, he calls upon Hecate. Great honor comes full easily to him whose prayers the goddess receives favorably, and she bestows wealth upon him; for the power surely is with her. For as many as were born of Earth and Ocean amongst all these she has her due portion. The son of Cronos did her no wrong nor took anything away of all that was her portion among the former Titan gods: but she holds, as the division was at the first from the beginning, privilege both in earth, and in heaven, and in sea.

andrés smiles as soon as he catches sight of rihannon. he is beaming with her reaction, the thoughts of rhiannon forgetting about him soon dissipating. instead, he can feel his heart beating faster with excitement. “of course these are for you,” he replies quickly, his smile growing impossibly bigger as he hands over the sunflowers. “i saw them on the way here and i just couldn’t help but think of you, i hope you like them.” andrés can feel heat taking over his face, is he nervous? truth be told, it’s been years since he has given flowers to a girl. and it’s making him… vulnerable. it’s almost uncharted territory and andrés wonders if he hasn’t gone to far. “i hope i’m not bothering,” he starts, suddenly shy. so different from his usual confident behaviour. “if you’re busy, i’ll just leave these here and go on my way.”

      RHIANNON TAKES THE SUNFLOWERS INTO HER GRASP CAREFULLY, letting a smile finally blossom across her expression. if andres is hesitant, it doesn’t register to rhiannon, who’s starting to feel so giddy it sends electricity through her body. she bounces on the heels of her feet, cheeks still flushed. ❝ thank you so much, andres. how could you be a bother ? ❞ rhiannon looks up at him, sincere and fond. at his suggestion to leave, rhiannon quickly intercedes --- ❝ no, no ! you should --- you should come inside. maybe we could smoke on my deck ? y’know, it’s a full moon tonight, which means it’s a really special night. ❞ rhiannon speaks quickly, so eager that it seeps into her voice. she looks up into his eyes, her own green ones sparkling with the hope that he planned to stick around.

CLOSED STARTER ; @hecatesii​ . LOCATION ; rihannon’s place .

andrés has been missing rhiannon. he’s not sure if maybe the girl had been to busy lately, or downright avoiding him. or maybe he’s the one who’s been too busy drinking and dying the next morning. however, she always seems to be on the back of his mind. and it’s until he’s finally managed to stay a full 24 hours without being intoxicated that he finally reaches out.

at first, he had decided to invite her over. but his place was a gross mess. so one cold shower later and he is on his way to her place instead. maybe he’s being silly, but he can’t help but stop by a flower shop on the way. there’s a bouquet of sunflowers in his hand by the time he arrives.

are you home? i am outside. he clicks send. waiting by the sidewalk for her reply.

      RHIANNON WAS SITTING IN THE MIDDLE OF FOUR LIT CANDLES, homemade with various cinnamon and floral scents. she’d even put out a couple of crystals --- there was a full moon out tonight, and she was planning on letting them charge under the moonlight. and then, of course, her phone buzzes. curious, rhiannon reaches for the phone, before seeing andrés’s name and letting out a gasp. he was outside ?? she pulls herself up off of the floor, excitement making her motions careless and clumsy. grinning, the blonde races to the front door, before yanking it open and stepping outside with bare feet.

       when rhiannon sees andrés standing on the sidewalk, she can’t help but let a beaming smile overtake her expression. ❝ andrés !! ❞ she exclaims, practically floating over to the male. ❝ it’s so good to see you --- ❞ though she was going to run into his arms, she stops a few inches away from him once she sees the bouquet of sunflowers in his grasp. ❝ ...are those...are those for me ? ❞ she glances up at the male in disbelief, fingers twitching with the urge to just take them and snuggle them close to her chest. but she has no idea if they’re for her, or if he’s just stopping by on his way to give them to someone else. still, hope is bubbling in her chest, and heat rises to the apples of her cheeks to make her blush. for once, she breaks his gaze, eyes darting towards the sidewalk in bashfulness. ❝ those are really beautiful, andrés... ❞

         RHIANNON WAS LOST IN THOUGHT, EVEN ABSENTMINDEDLY chewing on the end of her pencil. she was meant to be sketching, but hanging out with agata was much more enjoyable than her latest assignment. her green eyes finally darted over to her dear friend, the hint of a smile on her face. ❝ you know what i just realized ?  i think being a cat lady is extremely underrated. ❞ there was a passion in rhiannon’s voice, the one that never seemed to go away. ❝ i would be the best cat lady. cats love me. especially black ones. ❞ rhiannon beamed. black cats actually always seemed to find rhiannon, no matter what country she was living in. ❝ ...and if i’m a cat lady, then i can be proud about being single for the rest of my life. right ? ❞
