Tragic Beauty

"The darkness of death is like the evening twilight; it makes all objects appear more lovely to the dying."-Jean Paul

You know you spend too much time at work...

[choosingtobelost]

And you’re torture for my good vibes, so there we’re even. Well thank you, but don’t get used to it. I go back to work next week. 

Um…no. May the gods help me, I’m the one stuck with your ass. Noooo, I’ve been living my life. I ain’t got time for TV. But just for that I should go watch some soap operas…

[ipredict-tragedy]

Oh no, the assaulting confusion, my poor nose. What forever will I do now, I got comfortable with the vanilla.

No my dear, I recall it was me who got stuck with your ass (behind), which is by the way being very lazy at the moment. No, please do not subject me to another days of our stupidity marathon.

[ipredict-tragedy]

OOC: So the girls that being Poca and Cassandra had to wrack their brains on what could one possibly do to celebrate the fact that today a wonderful human being(demi god) who is one of the most important people in their lives came into beautiful existence and these pictures symbolism what these two came up with for their humble hero and best friend. This was all set up at Poca's apartment as a nice surprise for Hercules. A lot of planning and baking went into hopefully making a memorable birthday for the newly 22 year old.

choosingtobelost:

I happen to like the smell of work, ‘kay? No! No thank you. And please…I’m always dramatic. You can’t just turn this off. Take it or leave it, Cass.

Yes, yes of course you do it's quite disconcerting for my nose to pin point all the fragrance from the flowers quite simply it's torture to the senses. Though I prefer the smell you have right now, it's singular and delicate and not at all confusing.  Again your welcome. Rude.

Oh the gods help me, what a drama queen. Have you been watching soap operas again? Is that what you've been filling the time off with?

[choosingtobelost]

You know you spend too much time at work...

when your friend tells you that for the first time in months you don’t smell ‘obnoxiously girly’. Rude.

Anyway, since I’ve got a few days off from work I thought I’d drop in see how everyone’s been holding up! What’s good, Elias?

[ipredict-tragedy]

It was meant as a compliment, that you didn't bring the smell of work with you.  Your welcome. You can stop being dramatic now.

[criminalelement]

I feel like I've been stabbed in the back.

And not in the figurative sense of the word. In the actual painful stabbed in the back with a sword sense of the word.

It isn’t fun.

[ipredict-tragedy]

I'm sorry, but what exactly is the point of you stating this? Wouldn't  it be common sense that something so explicitly morbid would be painful, and not fun unless one likes pain, which by your statement I've gather that your not a masochist.

Sala Strangeness and Valentines Day||Group Texts

Cassandra: you just did Herc, but sure go ahead?

Poca: of course you can, what's on your mind?

Hercules: See Cassandra, I didn't need your sarcasm. I'm serious

Hercules: But um…you guys haven't talked to Nala lately have you?

Cassandra: Oh the gods whats wrong? Is she okay?

Poca: uh, no. I mean... I haven't spoken to Nala in weeks. why?

Hercules: She seems okay, I guess…but I just…she's not.

Poca: WAIT...when did you even see her?

Poca: I was pretty sure both she and Simba fell off the face of the Earth...

Cassandra: why do you say that Herc? did you talk to her?

Hercules: I ran into her the other day after class.

Hercules: She said she was fine, and that everything's okay, but i didn't FEEL like it was.

Poca: No Cass he senses something's wrong from Nala without having to talk to her or see her...

Cassandra: Wait... you haven't heard from Simba?

Poca: Hmmm, well at least now we know one of them is alive.

Cassandra: You sarcasm is dully noted Poca

Poca: no, I haven't heard from him if that was directed at me

Hercules: I haven't heard from him, but she told me he's sick…highly contagious apparently.

Cassandra: that's strange... but did you find out why they've been scarce Herc?

Hercules: I just…said he was sick

Hercules: That's all she told me. She's been taking care of him.

Poca: EWWWWW, if you see her again tell her I have remedies that could help.

Poca: Okay but no, they've both been off the map for like a month now...is he DYING?

Hercules: I don't know...

Cassandra: and she's been outside and in contact with him. Is she trying to get all of us sick.. because that makes no sense

Cassandra: if he's highly contagious

Hercules: Which is why I don't think it's the whole story. I had a bad feeling the whole time.

Hercules: Nala's smarter than that...

Cassandra: Well your gut feelings are quite good Herc, maybe you should try talking to her again?

Cassandra: she is

Poca: But if she's lying already...don't you think she'd just...I dunno keep lying?

Hercules: Maybe...

Hercules: I just don't get why she would

Cassandra: it's quite difficult to lie to Herc in all honesty maybe the setting wasn't set up for her to confide in what's really going on?

Poca: Me neither. But if nothing else is making any sense...what else do we have to go with? Because if he is sick...why did no one text us?

Hercules: Maybe…she doesn't know whats wrong with him and is keeping us out until she knows for sure?

Cassandra: perhaps he doesn't want us to see him in his sickness. a lot of people are like that

Poca: Hmmm, well if he IS as sick as she said Herc could be right. I mean, what if it's some weirdo disease or something

Cassandra: but something that takes over a month....

Hercules: I don't know guys. I just think it's all really strange.

Poca: No, it is strange. I trust your judgement and if you say something's up well then...something's up.

Poca: I'm glad you got to see Nala though....if that means anything

Cassandra: It is strange. Perhaps another conversation could clear that strangeness up?

Hercules: I mean, I was too…but she was even too busy to go get food with me afterwards. Apparently her cousin is here now too...

Hercules: And if she keeps being busy, I doubt a conversation is going to be in there cards, Cassandra

Cassandra: invasion from the mother land. oh so does that mean you can't do something for her on Cupid's days?

Hercules: I don't even know if she wants to see me.

Cassandra: why wouldn't she want to see you, I thought the first date had gone well. Did it not?

Hercules: I did but I mean…she never talked to me again after New Years and then she was acting weird, so I don't know...

Poca: Weeeeell, I'm no expert but I mean...I don't know. Maybe she IS just really busy with some stuff? If...if you want you can still like, do something.

Cassandra: yes Flowers would be a perfect gift Herc

Hercules: Flowers are so cheesy. She's going to think I'm cheesy.

Cassandra: flowers are romantic this time of year

Hercules: And typical...

Cassandra: plus Poca's arrangements never look cheesy

Hercules: Yeah…I guess you're right...

Cassandra: they're a nice gesture a Herc

Hercules: I'll think about it

Lantern Light by Christian Schloe

Alone

From childhood’s hour I have not been As others were; I have not seen As others saw; I could not bring My passions from a common spring. From the same source I have not taken My sorrow; I could not awaken My heart to joy at the same tone; And all I loved, I loved alone. Then- in my childhood, in the dawn Of a most stormy life- was drawn From every depth of good and ill The mystery which binds me still: From the torrent, or the fountain, From the red cliff of the mountain, From the sun that round me rolled In its autumn tint of gold, From the lightning in the sky As it passed me flying by, From the thunder and the storm, And the cloud that took the form (When the rest of Heaven was blue) Of a demon in my view.

Edgar Allan Poe

Two losses, but one huge win on the road this week.

[call-me-wonderboy-deactivated20]

Yes I am! Hiya Cassandra. Yeah yeah, cut it out, you always tell me so. But thank you. I’m glad he is, thanks for watching over him for me. See, and you took him to the vet. That’s why I keep you around. Haha, I’m kidding. But really he looks good, so thank you. And I missed you too. I know she is, and you guys say I’m the kid. 

[ipredict-tragedy]

Your welcome. It's no problem really you know I love spending time with Achilles plus him and Shadow get along.I did. I just forgot to tell you when you picked him up earlier that you didn't need to worry about it. Very funny Hercules. Well you are my child and she just appointed herself as my baby mama so what was I to do. hmm. You try telling her she's the child and watch how she just turns it around to suit her. "No Cassandra I'm the fun parent." Now how did it go out there give me the highlights of what I missed.

Two losses, but one huge win on the road this week.

Couldn’t be more proud of my team for pulling through it. But what’s going on Elias? It’s been a while.

[ipredict-tragedy]

HERC you back finally and I see we come back victorious. I'll refrain from the I told you so and just congratulate my favorite college QB. Congratulations hero! Oh and before you ask Achilles is happy, fine and healthy, we went to the vet yesterday. He's good to go until the next check up. Oh and I missed you. Poca is a handful on her own you know.
