Milo Thatch

Starter: Open Place: some coffee shop lol

Sore. He was so sore and he was tired and he was upset with his dumb dumb brothers and the entire situation that they were in. But all of all this was counterproductive and didn’t mean a thing because they had to keep it together. He settled into the coffee shop which was sure to have spotty wifi and tried no to think about it. He then realized he’d have to ask for the password and that was just a little too much.

“So, hey, do you come here often? Yes? No?” Donnie grilled the person sitting close to him. “I don’t really care but uh, do you happen to know the password for the wifi? I’m desperate.”

Milo washed down his biscuit with the best coffee he’d ever had. He was 3 hours into his dissertation on the importance of folk tales when he was rather rudely interrupted. Milo was taken a little aback by the abrasiveness of the other but he also could see that the other was desperate. He tore a page out of his notebook, wrote down the password, and handed it over.

“They usually ask that you buy something but here, I can see you need it.”

⚔️ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ─────────── elizabeth was happy to see a familiar face after the fiasco she had just witnessed. “ i don’t think you can really say no to such a treat. ” she teased with a small smile. “ quite so. milo, yes ? ” she responded with a nod. elizabeth hesitate for a moment. she would hate to bother milo to do something for her like this especially since they didn’t know each other all that much but how could she turn away his kindness ? “ if you would like. i appreciate you being kind enough to offer. ”

Milo chuckled at that. “Yes, well, you’re right about that.” He nodded as he took a sip of the drink. It was definitely a lot more sweet than he usually had but it wasn’t too bad. In fact, he kinda liked it. “Yes. Not lost this time.” He motioned for her to get back into the line, “Absolutely. It’s only fair. You introduce me to something new and I get you what you actually wanted. Fair’s fair.”

Serena muttered to herself, looking down at her notebook as she stopped right in front of the shelf of herbs. It wasn’t so much what she needed to get but if she should still get it.

Her notes said: Mugwort, lavender … or mint ? For Christmas ?

When she felt the tap, she jumped a little. “Oh, hello,” she said with a quick smile. Serena put her hand on her chest to slow her heartbeat. “Yes! Yes — well, I mean, I’ll do my best.”

Milo smiled sheepishly when he noticed she jumped. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you.” He pulled out his small notepad. His brain was always going to he needed to write things down to do proper research into this later. “Yes, so what do you know about the supposedly ‘haunted’ cemetery at the edge of town?”

LOCATION: outside the lucky cat cafe .

⚔️ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ─────────── “ You want this ? ” elizabeth asked, holding out the venti whipped vanilla bean frappuccino to the person in front of her. Normally, elizabeth opted for a simple black coffee but with how hectic the lucky cat was today her order got mixed up in the mess of sugary drinks and expressos. “ Normally I would tell them politely they messed up my order but the woman behind me made a huge scene so I just left. ” she said, adding emphasis on politely since the scene she witnessed earlier was anything but.

Milo looked up from his phone to see the coffee being offered. He didn’t normally drink anything like that but it felt rude to say no. He never really had any of the sweeter coffees but he might as well try it now. “Oh, well, if you really don’t want it, how can I day no?” He took the coffee from her hands with a smile as he realized he remembered her, “Elizabeth, right? Can I get you what you actually wanted to order since you’re being so kind as to give me this one?”

Jim was scrolling through his phone trying to keep track of all of his orders when he was approached. He’d seen this guy but to be fair he’d had to have seen everyone in this town at least once. He put his phone in his pocket and smiled, “Sure, what can I help you with?” Maybe he was getting pulled into some kind of survey but he had time to kill.

“Oh, Jim! Good to see you.” Milo had made friends with the friendly delivery guy. He’d seen him so often around town and had become fascinated with the other’s mode of transportation. “Well, you’re actually perfect for this. What do you think of the rumors of the haunted cemetery? Ever seen anything that would make you believe them?”

“okay, yeah! i’ve always got time to have a nice little talk,” anna agreed, more on instinct than anything else. just the idea of talking to someone new was exciting to her, really. however, a moment of consideration had her furrowing her eyebrows and looking at this new person properly. “are the questions about anything in specific? or are they the more general sorta thing like, you know, conversation starters and stuff like that?”

“oh! great!” milo was surprised that she’d agreed but grateful for the opportunity to ask his questions. “Well, it’s a little more specific, i guess? i wanted to know what you thought of about the rumors that the cemetery by the old mansion is haunted. A few people are making a very good case that it is.”

#.anna

Milo was so intrigued by the town. He knew he should be keeping a low profile and he was doing his best to restrain himself but he'd seen too many things here that needed explanation. The apothecary in particular was a delight to visit. He was writing away in his notebook about a haunted cemetery that he was starting to believe was actually real. He had to know what the citizens of town thought though. He worked up the courage to tap someone on the shoulder, "I'm sorry, do you have time to answer a couple of questions for me?"

Milo had no idea what he was doing here. Going to a party wasn’t exactly at the top of his list but he supposed this was a good way of getting to know people and maybe bumping into someone who could help him out. He was also tired of being cooped up and waiting for the world to come banging on his door again. He smiled politely at the people he was bumping into as he tried to get to an area that was less crowded. Finally by the spread, he sighed in relief and attempted conversation. “Fancy, huh?”

⚔️ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ─────────── the man before her was a different change of pace compared to the people she had come to known in elias. it was nice. she simply nodded as he spoke. well, muttered to himself, pretending not to hear it in case he wasn’t addressing her. “ you’re no trouble at all. ” really, what else did elizabeth have left to do ? jarrah went off to who knows where yet again leaving elizabeth to forge her own path. starting over in all aspects of her life wasn’t what she anticipated. at this rate she’d take any adventure that was thrown her way - even if it meant guiding a stranger to his own destination since she had yet to find hers.

“ elizabeth swann, ” she offered, the sound of her own now feeling foreign on her tongue after being elizabeth mcqueen for a year. “ if i am to be your guide you should probably know my name. ”

Milo smile was a grateful one. He really appreciated the help. Not everyone took time out of their day to help someone they didn’t know. A simple act was enough to renew hope in him that this was the town he was meant to be in while he helped Kida.

“Milo Thatch, sorry, I forgot my manners.” He offered his hand to her. “It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m grateful that you’re taking time out of your day to help me out.”

He’d been doing a lot of thinking lately. The reason why he’d come to this planet had begun to really weigh on him. He wasn’t supposed to blend in so well and form a family here but he had and now he didn’t really know what to do. He was playing with the sphere. He knew he shouldn’t have it out but people here had no idea what it was and it was safe. So, of course, he dropped it. He immediately ran after the thing until it was stopped by bumping into someone’s foot.

“Oh, uh, sorry there.” He bent over quickly to pick it up and shoved it into his pocket.

He was pretty wrapped up in the book he was reading. He shouldn’t be reading and walking about but he had a thought he needed to finish and this book had the answer. He felt the bump on his shoe and caught the glimpse of gold before it disappeared into the other man’s pocket. He’d seen that orb before in a book somewhere and now his curiosity was peaked.

“No, no, no harm done.” Milo smiled at the other. “That looked important? I’m always dropping things too.”

it was probably pure miracle that kiara didn’t step on or spill anything when the books went tumbling to the ground. she’d initially been planning to be in and out - there was some designs she wanted to work on - but nothing so urgent that she’d blatantly ignore someone who could probably use some help. “no, no, it’s all good,” kiara assured, reaching down to help pick the books up for him. she set aside her iced coffee to get a proper stack going, holding it out to the man with a smile. “whatcha reading? these look important,” she asked, curiosty glinting in her eyes.

He returned her smile gratefully. Most people would have walked by or at least that’s what he was used to. Books weren’t exactly the commodity that they had once been. “Thank you. I am lucky to have these and I’m dropping them all over.” He short-circuited for a moment as she asked. He knew he had to keep most of what he was doing under wraps. “They’re just old books I inherited from my grandfather. I wanted to re-read them.”

mama ode’s was the talk of the town - the first place people suggested when asking for local eats in the area - and velma had fully anticipated it being packed when she walked in, just before lunch hour, to get her daily everything bagel and cinnamon latte. but to her pleasant surprise, she walked in and the air was almost still. there were always customers, of course - but it was nowhere near crowded like she was expecting. she hummed happily to herself as she made her way up to the counter and ordered her breakfast.

the transaction was quick and soon enough velma was adjusting the strap of her bag, picking up her order, and twirling around to find a seat. less than crowded aside, the awkward dance around passersby were inevitable with tables so close together - especially when said individuals were walking around with an armful of books.

“ here, let me help you, ” velma offered, rushing to set her things down before taking a book that was close to falling from his grasp. she knew what it was like to be wrestling a tower of literature. “ are you … doing research for something ? ” she asked, looking over the cover.

Milo sighed in relief as he examined the books and noticed that the fragile, old things were not damaged in any way. He was grateful to be helped in the moment as he did tend to get overwhelmed pretty easily.

“Thank you, I appreciate it.” He offered a tired smiled as he place the books on the table to better put them away. He really needed to figure out a better way to do this. “Uh, oh, well yes I supposed you could say that, yes. I have a lot to brush up on.”

It was like a magical radar. As soon as the tell-tale thud hit the ground, Belle honed in on the location, and she dashed forward to help the stranger with his fallen set of books.

Placing her takeaway cup of coffee on a random table, she bent down and picked up one, shaking her head quickly to assure him: “ No need to apologise, are you all right ? Are they all right ? ” Belle took a moment to look at the books hurriedly being picked up, her eyes widening at the well-worn, aged nature of them. “ Oh, my god, they’re beautiful. ”

Milo was internally freaking out. These books held so much information and a lot of it would make him look insane. He was used to not being believed but he did not want the reputation that he was up to anything in this town.

“I’m fine, just fine, and the books have seen worse trust me.” He gently put them back into his bag and tried to remember how many he had with him. “Thank you, they’re very old. I do my best to take care of them.”

⚔️ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ─────────── how did one begin to rebuild their life when venturing upon a new chapter ? it was the question elizabeth was asking herself more and more each day. monty was heaven sent, he always had been. always so understanding and kind even when elizabeth had left in the most abrupt manner. this new phase in life felt daunting but exciting at the same time. with a new a new page ready to be written elizabeth decided the first step to figuring out what she wanted was redecorating her old home she had before marrying monty.

the woman was peering inside minnie’s flower shop when she felt a gentle tap on her shoulder. normally her defenses would be on high alert but this time they weren’t. she was thankful for that as she turned to see who was requesting her attention. “ No bother at all. yes, it is a little ways past the mouse estate ” elizabeth had never seen the man in town. she could only assume he was new. “ if you’d like I can take you there. it’s no trouble at all. ”

Relief flooded through him at her kindness. He had noticed every one in this town seemed to be pretty content which was a stark difference from his own hometown or maybe Milo tended to be person non grata in the social circle he’d been raised in. He was aware that he talked a lot and most of what he said made no sense to others.

“The Mouse estate?” He muttered it more to himself rather than saying it to her. He’d heard of them from Mr. Scrooge. He had no idea where that was so he’d had to accept her help. “I’d hate to trouble you further but if you wouldn’t mind guiding me, I’d appreciate it.”

He had no idea where he was going and frankly, he was pretty sure he’d walked past that same store 3 times already. How could a town seem small and yet be so big. He just wanted to get to the university and raid their historical archives. There was apparently some books there that could help his current mission. When he said he wanted adventure, this isn’t what he’d had in mind. His phone wasn’t doing much to help him and so he gave up. He was about to let himself fall into the bench and let his failure consume him but he caught sight of someone who seemed friendly enough. He decided that giving up wasn’t an option right now so he went up to her and tapped her shoulder.

“Pardon, I’m so sorry to be a bother, but would you know which way the University is?” He hoped his smile wasn’t too nervous. He really didn’t want to see unsavory.

#.elizabeth #i hope this is okay

He was definitely struggling. He felt exposed in this town where he had nowhere really to go hide in some books. The library seemed popular here and while he had no trouble meeting people, he really just needed a moment to think. He’d gone from dedicating his life to what was basically a legend to finding out it was all true and now he had to help protect the one hope Atlantis had to surviving an evil fairy who wanted to destroy it. It was a lot, okay? He’d decided that his best move would be to get some food. Mama Odie’s seemed like just the place so he dropped his books on a table outside and let his heavy bag fall only for all of his other books to spill out. He scrambled to collect them. He’d taken these books from his grandfather’s library.

“I’m so sorry, give me a moment, I’ll have these up and out of the way.” Milo apologized to the passerby as he handled the priceless books.
