she is the beauty and the beast ♕

“The spider's web: She finds an innocuous corner in which to spin her web. The longer the web takes, the more fabulous its construction. She has no need to chase. She sits quietly, her patience a consummate force; she waits for her prey to come to her on their own, and then she ensnares them, injects them with venom, rendering them unable to escape. Spiders – so needed and yet so misunderstood.”

I think that you may need to consult a dictionary, Miss Hauser, because I think that you’ve mistaken the word ‘enamored’ with ‘disenthralled’.

[iamawomanking]

I think you mean disenchanted, dear. And if you were as fed up with me as you say, why do we always seem to find ourselves in these stimulating conversations?

[iamawomanking]

I leave on a simple business trip and the entire district seems to have died.

[xalaskahartx]

Why don’t you test that theory?

[iamawomanking]

You'd like that, wouldn't you, dear heart. I'd suggest you get used to my presence, Miss Hart, because as long as you are in my brother's life I will be in yours.

[jamesxsiriusxpotter]

You’ve always been simply throwing yourself at me.

[iamawomanking]

Aw, isn't that sweet of you to think? You're just so absolutely enamored with me, that you've come to imagine I feel the same. Poor, sweet, James.

[iamawomanking]

I leave on a simple business trip and the entire district seems to have died.

[thereplication]

Perhaps everyone made a run for it while things have fallen silent. It’s more than likely a matter of time before hell rains down upon us again.

[iamawomanking]

I think it simply divides the weak from the strong.

And how have you been, brother dearest? Bastet treated you... Well, I imagine?

[iamawomanking]

I leave on a simple business trip and the entire district seems to have died.

[skyebennand]

I heard they all moved. Got too scared off by the weird stuff that was happening. Star’s basically a ghost town these days.

[iamawomanking]

But not you, hmm? You haven't been "scared off" by any of these unfortunate occurrences?

[iamawomanking]

I leave on a simple business trip and the entire district seems to have died.

It makes one wonder what would happen if I had left altogether.

[jamesxsiriusxpotter]

And it just figures that it would be you, Athena Hauser.

[iamawomanking]

Oh? Whatever do you mean, Mr. Culver?

[jamesxsiriusxpotter]

[someone bumps into him, spilling his coffee] What the hell!

[iamawomanking]

Oh, how dreadfully clumsy of me.

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

[xalaskahartx]

Whats odd Athena? Y’know everyone is in hiding from you, which shouldn’t really come as anything new.

[iamawomanking]

Oh, was that your problem with your little Caleigh friend?

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

[skyebennand]

Skye. Skye Bennand.

I know who you are Athena Hauser. You’re sorta famous around here you know?

[iamawomanking]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Bennand.

Oh, please, you give me too much credit, dear. I'm really no different than you or anyone else.

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

[strawberrymedium]

Uh, what’s… What’s odd?

[iamawomanking]

Don't you find it to be a bit too quite, dear? It's almost as everyone has simply... Vanished.

Though, of course, that couldn't possibly be, now could it?

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

[skyebennand]

If you’re talking about Starlasia and its missing occupants then yeah… its pretty god damn odd.

[iamawomanking]

...Indeed.

I don't believe I've had the pleasure. My name is Athena, and what might yours be, dear?

[iamawomanking]

Hmm...

How odd.

[jamesxsiriusxpotter]

We're short-staffed at the office,

[jamesxsiriusxpotter]

There are quite a few things you don’t know about me, Miss Hauser-though I wouldn’t suggest finding out. [takes a step closer to her] What if I wreck your pristine image?

[iamawomanking]

My "pristine image" is rather difficult to wreck, I'm afraid. It would take much more than a single man to tarnish it. [She mirrored his movements and took a step closer.] Though, you're welcome to try.

[jamesxsiriusxpotter]

We're short-staffed at the office,

[jamesxsiriusxpotter]

Or you could make a new strain of the virus. That’s always a real novelty, hmm?

[iamawomanking]

My dear James, I never knew you had such a wicked mind.
