we are young and free

Lileas Dunbroch, daughter of Merida Dunbroch. A free spirit in my own right. "Shining bright she is like the sun, waiting there for her fate to come."

“Work.” He replied, massaging his temples. He’s never gotten a headache before, and he abhors the feeling of having one. Never will he cram all of his papers then binge drink tea again. He never knew that was such a toxic combination. “I hate it. Do you have any medicine?” He asked, unfamiliar with where he was. He’s never been good with directions, and now this happened. Emrys had never felt so lost before.

[lileasdunbroch]

Lileas snorted. “Boring. I swear, half the people around here are all work and no play.” If one ever saw Lileas actually doing her homework, they would think she was sick. Work never mattered to her. “Who doesn’t hate it?” She looked around her room, clicking her fingers when she found a solution. “I have something that helps with pain. One of the maids back home made me take it with me. You can have some if you want, but it tastes gross.”

“they’ll always be in stock, lileas. it’s a crucial game for anybody who plays video games. you should play it sometime.” he spoke so calmly he almost believed it; the delicacy that strung between them, the unspoken truth, hanging like decor they ignored. his lips pursed, thinned, before they widened into a smile. “i think you’d like it.”

[lileasdunbroch]

“Crucial, huh? Maybe it would be in my best interest to play it then,” she said. “When I have the opportunity, of course.” She said it so easily, as if she didn’t have his copy stashed away in her cupboard. She just had to keep reminding herself that it was for his own good. “If you think I’ll like it, I’ll give it a go.”

[minjoork]

“i’m always ready–you aren’t the only one with skills. and that’s good, video games are the best company sometimes.” though not with sickness, he thinks, never says; because sickness means headaches and a repulsion to the droning light of the screen, the loud bursts of sound from its speakers.

[lileasdunbroch]

“If you say so. They definitely are, especially when you’ve never played one before. They always confused me ‘cause I’m pretty much from the middle ages if my home is any indication.” The technology had alluded her at first, but she had soon gotten used to it along with the slang.

[minjoork]

they both knew she was lying; her attempt lay in redundancy but isaac was adamant about believing it. he drank it up, drenched his thoughts in its cool tendrils, fed reason to chance. if he believed she didn’t do it, he wouldn’t be mad at her, wouldn’t have to waste his time in petty, fleeting emotions that would, in the end, waste his time. “okay, i’m glad. i’ll pick up another copy tomorrow.”

[lileasdunbroch]

Lileas breathed out a sigh of relief. She knew they both knew the truth, but it was so much easier to feign ignorance sometimes. She knew that from experience, though it was mostly in times where the other person didn’t know for sure what she had done, like her grandmother or grandfather. “Good idea, as long as they’re still in stock.”

[minjoork]

“since when are you the master at this?” he asked, following orders with lips pulled back into a tight smile; he was half amazed at her fluency in video games, half oblivious. the joy was too thick to notice much else beyond the dance of pixels on the screen.

[lileasdunbroch]

“Since I got sick one time and had nothing but video games to keep me company,” she said, shrugging. She had been absolutely hopeless when it came to video games before that, having come from a place with no technology whatsoever. “Ready for level two?”

     [ ☆ ]—”Ah! You caught me.” Jinx was one with a flair for the dramatics, made obvious by the exaggerated fainting motion he displayed, looking as if he was about to fall off the ledge he perched on. Before he even could, though, he quickly regained his composure, sitting back up and looking at the girl with mischief-filled pools of gold as he heard her question. “I believe you could find ducks in a pond.” He offered, not even sounding the least bit joking. His father did teach him well. “Or fairies in a tree, and votes in a ballot–” He paused, putting a finger to his lips. “Which one of these were you looking for, kid?” 

[lileasdunbroch]

Lileas sighed at the over-exaggerated movements. She could be dramatic herself sometimes, but this was just ridiculous. “Yes, yes, I caught you, congratulations to me,” she said, sarcasm dripping from every syllable. She listened to his response to her question, becoming aggravated with each word. “Not ducks. Docks. D-O-C-K-S. Ferry as in F-E-R-R-Y and boat as in B-O-A-T. It’s not that hard, you know. And there’s no need to call me a kid. I’m not that much younger than you.” To be fair, she was fairly short.

The girl Bree had grew to become was all anyone had known, someone who did as she was told, acted as she should, and made decisions responsibly. That image was everything for her, and acting any different would be extremely hard seeing as she has no clue how to change. It’s a nagging feeling she has in the back of her mind, changing, but she knows she can’t. It’s a small price to pay. “Sometimes they’re fun, not everything is a bore!” She said, a laugh escaping her lips. But this was true on occasions. “One day I may be able to break a rule, but I don’t think that day will be anytime soon.”

[lileasdunbroch]

Change was hard for everyone, and it always made her wonder what was different for everyone at Elias. For her, it was the technology. Her castle, while beautiful and proud in its own right, was very behind on the times. It was like they were two different worlds, but even so she never changed her tone. “Your rules must be different from mine then,” she said, swinging on her chair. “I hardly find any of them fun other than the whole ‘kids aren’t allowed in political affairs’. Blegh, politics.” She made a face, thinking of all the ceremonies and gatherings between the other clans in Scotland. Too much talking, not enough fun. “One day, maybe. Don’t force yourself, though.”

{ text; lileas } gASPS WHY HAVEN’T I THOUGHT OF THAT { text; lileas } i did exactly that - but with a panda instead { text; lileas } i feel. reputations are such a pain in the ass. 

[lileasdunbroch]

{text} because they’re sneaky {text} that poor panda is hE OKAY??? {text} right? and you have to do the most trivial things to uphold them too.

"Ugh, could you quiet down? My head hurts too much for this noise..."

Lileas raised an eyebrow and paused the music she had been playing. “Why, what were you doing last night?” she teased, a smirk on her face. Even so, she didn’t turn her music back on. She knew what it was like to have a killer headache and if she was in the same position she would have wanted all noises to stop. She could be polite sometimes.

Bree had never had the idea of breaking traditions within her Kingdoms history in her mind before, the Bête children just following whatever it was they were supposed to do - well, with the exception of Calais on occasions. While their father was a bit more strict with royal affairs, their mother allowed for them to have the fun they needed. Bree, however, naturally drifted to what her father said, always attending official affairs. “They can be a pain sometimes, but what can you do?” She asked, shrugging. “I find it easier to go with them, out of respect I guess.”

[lileasdunbroch]

Lileas knew that she wouldn’t have made it if she had to be prim and proper all the time. She could get by for a few hours, for a ball or party, but that was the extent of her obeying the rules. It was much easier at Elias to feel comfortable since she was around more people her own age. If only the school had more places to explore, she would be set. “Only sometimes? Try all the time.” Lileas didn’t even try to hide her disdain for the rules. It was just how she was, and she knew she wasn’t the only one who felt that way. “I guess it would be easier. I just prefer to do things the hard way.”

[plxholloway-blog1]

“The question is why not?” She narrowed her eyes at the girl, as if her perception of ‘coke’ was different from the one Perriane was talking about. “I meant the soda. Tsk, tsk. You people and your assumptions, really. We’re all but immoral, you know.”

[lileasdunbroch]

“Why not? Well, I don’t have shorts underneath here, for a start,” she said, gesturing towards her skirt. “I know you’re talking about the soda. What else would you be -- oh.” She had completely forgotten there was another kind of coke. “Is that so? Somehow, I don’t entirely believe you.”

[alxarose]

“You don’t like curfew?” She chuckled, resting her chin on a closed fist. “Are there any rules that you do like, Lileas?” Surely, there has got to be something she does not find tedious. This girl truly had a personality that required to be remembered. “That’s so sweet of you. I appreciate it. I don’t really know anyone else here at the moment.” 

[lileasdunbroch]

“Nope. I don’t like being told when to sleep. I mean, I get so restless when trying to sleep. At home I walk around outside until I get tired. I can’t do that here.” She tried to think of a rule she did like. “Hmm... Well, I don’t mind that we have uniforms. It means I don’t have to care about what to wear on school days. I just wish they didn’t tell us how to wear it,” she said. “Well, I’m not going to let you endure detention on your own. That’s just mean.”

[minjoork]

“not even close–here, just try imagining the consequences that’ll happen if you don’t lie. think of the worst possible scenario and use that as inspiration to do it.” he had surrendered by now, already leaning back with folded arms. just thinking of consequences gave him relief; at least he didn’t have to skirt them. “you just have to believe your own lie.”

[lileasdunbroch]

The consequences? She didn’t think there would be any consequences to hiding a video game, but she’d been wrong before. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and reopened them before saying, “I didn’t hide your copy of Mario Kart. I promise.” Big fat lie, of course. She had only been trying to prevent him from having another crisis over video game characters.

[minjoork]

he returned slowly, feigning hesitance; though the pull of the video game was too heavy, too thick. it was too interesting to leave behind, too fun to do anything else but sit on the couch and start pressing buttons. “okay, let’s do it.”

[lileasdunbroch]

Lileas had completely ignored his initial hesitance, knowing he would eventually come and play alongside her again. The game was just that addictive, really. “Okay, go, go, left, right! Level one completed!”

[islakyle-blog]

Her eyebrow quirked at the little girl standing before her– little because of the height difference and also due to the fact that she indeed looked like a child. Initially, she had wanted to tease the girl when she suddenly addressed her out of the blue, but then she started going off on a tangent about her denying something she couldn’t recall doing and like an itch she couldn’t scratch, it slowly got on her nerves– her voice just buzzing, buzzing, buzzing in her face. She didn’t quite understand the reason for that confrontation; she had never been within the vicinity of the girl prior to this day.

[lileasdunbroch]

Lileas didn’t say anything else, continuing to scowl in the other girl’s direction. “Well, I don’t see anyone else here in the library,” she said, gesturing towards the almost empty room. Hardly anyone was around at this time of night, even those who studied on a regular basis. “The one time I actually care about doing my homework and it’s gone.” She groaned, a loud noise that made the librarian glare at her from behind her spectacles. “If you didn’t do something with it, then who did?” It was a simple enough question, she thought, and if the girl in front of her didn’t know, she would be at a dead end.
