"honestly daisy, i’m not that upset,” sidney admitted with a laugh, a lazy, lopsided grin spreading across his face as he took a seat next to his friend. “i mean yeah, having a year of your life stolen sucks,” he continued, pausing only briefly to make sure she was listening before he continued. “but at least i’m not the only victim,” he finished with a laugh this time, as he leaned back, trying his best to appear relaxed, even at ease, despite being anything but. “the only shame is that my love life is still a mess.” @primulacatenas
“any chance you’ve seen a cell phone just laying around?” jade asked, frustration clearly laving her voice. she hadn’t been able to find it since waking up, and she’d tried all the normal routes of computer technology already. “it had sparkly case and the background picture was an artsy oscar wilde quote, but who knows if i changed it in the past year.” she shook her head, knowing it was likely a lost cause. she had apparently changed the passwords to everything in the past year and couldn’t figure out what they were to at least she what she’d been posting on social media. she’d had to make do with going through other people’s profiles to see anything she’d done, but there was only so much they could help with. “it’s probably gone for good,” she admitted a moment later. “this kinda blows.”
if sidney had seen the cell phone, he probably wouldn’t have told the girl. after all, it wasn’t his responsibility to make sure she kept track of her possessions. that, and, he found it to be rather entertaining to watch her search. “nope, haven’t seen it, i did spot a lost calculator though,” he commented with a shrug, a rather obvious lie, though he was certain he’d get away with it. “i could try calling it if you’d like?” he offered, “i’m sure you charged it during the past year, you might not remember it, but plugging a phone in is about muscle memory.”
(otto farrant, demi male, he/his & they/them) a family crest affixed to all of your clothing, a haunting reminder of all the expectations placed on you, constantly bearing down on you; drinking straight from a cup clearly labeled paint water, a smirk on his face, a simple yet powerful act of defiance; a hand made crown of flowers perched lopsided on top a head of carefully maintained blond hair; a carefully maintained appearance to hide that you’re falling apart at the seams; — ☾ welcome back, SIDNEY NARCISSE CADIÈRE-ARSENAULT. i hope you’re ready for another memorable school year with the WITCH faction. at only 22/22, it’s easy to be MENDACIOUS and PHLEGMATIC, but i hear you can be ARDENT and CHARISMATIC.
meet sidney narcisse cadière-arsenault:
about:
sidney is the product of an arrangement between two of the oldest french covens in existence. the cadière line could trace it’s history back to the salem witch trials, after which they led back to their native country. the arsenault’s had been around for just as long, if not longer. it was decided that laurent cadière and estelle arsenault would have a child, who’s birth would unite the covens.
a little over nine months after the arrangement was made, sidney narcisse cadière-asenault was born. and with that the covens came together, with the shared goal of surviving for centuries to come.
it was around this time that the coven began to experiment with immortality, a secret that was kept from sidney. originally, they planned to tell him on his eighteenth birthday. but seeing as he was away at school, they decided to wait until he returned. and since he’s still in america, he has no clue.
because his parents never married, sidney’s childhood was strange to say the least. instead of being raised by just one of them, he was raised by the coven as a whole. the different elders taking turns looking after him and sharing their knowledge.
seeing as this was a less than ideal way to raise a child, it was ultimately decided that sidney would be sent away for his education. and upon his return to france he would assume leadership of the coven.
after a careful search had been conducted, he along with some of the other children were sent to the salvatore boarding school. that was let’s eight years ago.
he hasn’t told anyone, but sidney has no desire to go back and lead his coven. his life is in america, not france. but he knows that one day he’ll have to step up, he just hopes to delay it for as long as possible.
fun facts:
he’s an art hoe™. some people, the more dramatic, like to say he was born with a paintbrush in his hand. of course, it’s not true, but he’s been painting for as long as anyone can remember. he’s a natural, a rare talent, but since it doesn’t involve magic, his parents had no use for it. in fact, they strongly discouraged sidney’s love of art, which only led to him devoting more time to it. eventually an agreement was reached where he was allowed to paint, but only after completing his studies. since his arrival at the boarding school, he’s devoted a signficant amount of time to his art.
similar to his art, sidney is also quite the gifted pianist, another talent that has only flourished since his arrival at the school.
sidney was educated in several forms of magic, regardless of their reception among the magical community. however, his strength lies in elemental magic. as well as nature magic. essentially, herbology is his shit. you bet your ass dead plants bloom whenever he’s around.
he comes off as very serious, no doubt due to his strict upbringing but he’s honestly a very down to earth, kind person. he just wants to be friends with everyone, but he knows that’s not possible.
he’s a very gifted witch but he does have a tendency to let things get in the way of his studies.
he’s very gay. i don’t know what else to put here.
he’s very extra, dramatic, over the top, you name it, it describes him. perhaps it’s the extravagant lifestyle he was used to, or the fact that he’s always had a considerable amount of attention.
he spends more time outdoors than he does inside, even in the winter he’s got an aura of light around him that has been said to melt the snow and bring the flowers back to life.
wanted connections:
some of the other children from his coven who were sent to the salvatore boarding school to study. it’d be rad if they were actually one of his many half-siblings, because i think there’s some fun to be had with their dynamics.
exes. he’s gay, and i feel like he’s had a few exes. he’s got a lot on his plate, so dating maybe hasn’t been a huge priority which could’ve led to the breakup. also, someone he dated during the lost year.
some crushes, because why not.
a best friend. his other half, the one person he trusts completely. i think it’d be neato if they were something other than a witch but witches aren’t excluded from the wc.
a witchy squad ?? idk they come together and practice magic and help each other when they’re struggling with a spell.
his roommate could be fun !!
otherwise i’m a sucker for all things soft or angsty and i’m always down to brainstorm!! gimme a cute ship or hateship idk.
things such as stats, a pinterest board and a playlist will be coming soon
