masquerade || velvet

[levereted]

The last place she expected herself to be was at a masquerade ball, of all things.

And yet somehow, by some strange twist of fate, here she is in considerably more fancy attire than her usual garments. As her unsure hazel optics look around the crowded area, he begins to wonder why she had wanted to attend this event so badly. For one, she’s not too fond of overly crowded places and two… Well, she’s not too keen on wearing heels, considering her increased height makes people notice her ears more easily.

Ears twitching slightly as she hears someone approach, the brunette turns around only to have her expression contort into one of slight surprise. To be honest, she had not expected Waver to make an appearance at this event… Though, it’s definitely a pleasant surprise, if anything. For a moment, however, she gives him a slightly confused look at his statement, briefly thinking about her answer.

"Hello, Waver…! Uhm… Well, it’s a bit cold, actually… But the snow looks really nice, I think… You look nice, by the way…!" a pause. “I-I mean… Well, you certainly match the ball’s theme,” smooth.

[magecrafting-blog]

     Fuck. He'd messed that one up, with a grimace, shoulders fall flat; looking anywhere but her for the moment. The magus hadn't the slightest of ideas on why he decided to show, as it was quite unlike him to show up to these sorts of gatherings. A clear of his throat, shifting nervously on his feet-- he tries his best to shrug it off, but to no avail. 

     ❝I-I didn't mean it, I meant--❞ Briefly looking back to her, the look of confusion sent his stomach to twist. He'd only made a right fool of himself, so much for trying his best.

     Pointless now, his only thought is Velvet might think of him as nothing but a right idiot. Truthfully, Waver could not blame her; of all the things to say! ❝I mean, right.. I..it isn't so cold in here, right? Ah, thank you.❞ Thankful the mask would hide any embarrassment he felt was only a soothing factor; but his knees shook as though they would give way at any second, ❝What I wanted to say was...❞

     It only seemed as though they were stuck in the same predicament, not that he noticed as much. ❝Yes, you look good.❞ Shit, he mentally curses himself once more. ❝I-I suppose...❞ Perhaps he should quit while he was ahead. ❝No.. No.. that isn't what I mean...❞

     Opposed to matters tall and graceful, dancing was not Waver's forte. Nothing here seemed to be, he was no person of grace and could barely look after himself-- yet to attend a ball was another matter. If residents here could act the part, he may as well try. He's no good at this, from small talk to the sweat appearing on his brow.

     Taking a simple gander to his left, he spots Velvet-- the one person he'd chosen to become friends with in this meek city. For one, her ears were noticeable; which Waver thought to be awfully charming. Finding the courage he chooses to speak, beneath his mask-- which he has ought to understand why it is needed.

     ❝Lovely, err, weather we're having...❞ Apart from the factor they happen to be inside a building with no way of knowing. At least it was one way of a greeting.

Reblog With A Picture of Your Rp Character Being Cute

[magecrafting-blog]

[magecrafting-blog]

You awake to discover 4 or 5 presents stowed away in your abode, all of which have been boxed in pristine, vibrantly wrapped boxes adorned with bows. Some of these boxes contain: an alchemy set, an assortment of sweaters, a collection of books to your liking and various brand new ties. (This is not to be published or responded to until the 25th. Merry Christmas!)

     First of all, how did Santa enter his apartment in the first place? Secondly, he wasn't even real! What was this nonsense? It could not be explained, as it was with magic-- although, he was only surprised to see presents wrapped in his humble abode, why? Upon opening the packages it was, thankfully items he needed.

     Anything to remain in the depths of his closed off room while the snow settles out. It wasn't as though he was enjoying himself, not at all.

Well, whatever positivity the faunus had instilled within their presence had vanished as quickly as it appeared. She sees now that her main role will perhaps to make sure the morale of the group doesn’t fall too low, which she doesn’t mind at all… But she is a little nervous if only because of her shyness around strangers. Regardless, the brunette looks between her two companions as they both speak, piping in with:

"Well… Everyone has an important job to do…! So we’ll need to work together and contribute to make our plans work," though she doesn’t smile this time, her hazel optics reflect a childish sort of hopefulness. However, as they continue their steps, the sound of rushing water becomes far more voluminous until the brunette stops dead in her tracks, looking on to the raging river ahead of them.

"…." well, she hadn’t anticipated it to be quite so… Unforgiving. “It’s… It’s not too wide, at least…?”

[asciiist]

     Waver had a point, she did need to blame the scientist but she did believe that he could have some more useful skills. Or at the very least he could be able to use a weapon of some sort. Velvet could use one and that mean he could at least be skilled in that area. Rin raises her hands and shrugs.

     Commenting on that would only sour his mood, but — "We should find him something, or steal a weapon at least." Yeah, she really didn’t want one of them to be … well, useless. Having three people fighting is a lot easier. 

      Her eyes flickered over to Velvet who she noticed had stopped and Rin paused as well. Then she managed to look over to the river and she crossed her arms. What a joyful adventure this is turning out to be. An idea quickly popped into her head.

     ”Why don’t you act like a bridge for us, Waver?” Her tone made it hard to tell if she’s joking or being serious…

[magecrafting-blog]

     If only he could be more useful, well it hardly mattered now-- at what point would they come across other teams? He remained doubtful in that thought, let alone any beasts lurking within this winding maze. They might be overreacting, but one would never know what was behind each corner-- which only caused a scoff to come from Waver.

     ❝I'd rather you not steal anything from anyone else,❞ he speaks firmly, remaining very against the idea no matter how the other magus would push the idea. ❝I didn't realise you were a barbarian, Rin.❞ Truthfully muttering, fighting back with her own words.

     He, too, stops with those fighting words, hearing the familiar sounds of a stream running low. Adding quick words towards Velvet, ❝Thankfully, it won't take us long to cross,❞ To Rin's words he gives nothing but a stare, as deadly as one comes. ❝Why don't you jump in and find out?❞ If she wasn't willing, he held no qualms in stepping in first-- admittedly he does so. Cold liquid pouring deep with his shoes, down to his socks. It goes unnoticed now, but he despises the feeling, brushing it off to prove his point.

     ❝Besides, aren't you much taller?❞ Checkmate.

[levereted]

With a quiet exhale, the female offers him a nod and allows him to place himself nearby as he sees fit. Frankly, she still feels embarrassed by how she worded that and it certainly doesn’t help that she can feel his embarrassment somewhat, too. The sooner they forget about it the better, she supposes.

"That’s true… Or I’d hope not, anyway," she starts, ears flicking slightly as they begin to relax slightly and droop. “I hope our good luck stays with us for as long as possible… Or at least until we’re all awake,” facing an attack when someone of their team is asleep could be a terrible thing, after all.

"Oh… Sorry! I don’t mean to be a downer…" right, right; she needs to be positive for the team! If you think positive then you’ll start being positive, right…? "So… You mentioned earlier something about Alchemy… Is that what you specialize in?" best change the topic for now.

[magecrafting-blog]

     Embarrassment lingers for a miniscule of a second, palm rests upon the hilt of his knee-- with his free hand ghosting across his cheek, pushing a lock of hair behind his ear. Although, he'd much prefer to be alone; this time he cannot afford to brush his team member off, besides it may do him some good.

     ❝I suppose so, it might be best if we keep watch in turns,❞ This wasn't the same as the Holy Grail War, where you could sleep without worrying about your attacker coming for you-- only at night did that rule mean anything, which meant daytime was mostly used for sleeping and restocking whatever supplies you needed. ❝.. it might work better that way, to alert one another of a surprise attack-- if it ever were to happen.❞ He wouldn't be surprised if if ended that way, even if they've had luck on their side so far.

     ❝It's logical to think that way, so don't worry.❞ Biting the thumb of his nail, he splutters out the last words; awkward and sloppy as they are, he still understands what Velvet meant by them. ❝That's right, I'm not very good at anything else...❞ Not entirely a lie, but his low circuit count was the cause for his constant suffering. ❝It might be the most basic of magic, but at least I'm capable of something.❞ It helped his journey during the war, so it was enough. ❝May I ask what a faunus is?❞ He has been curious ever she stated so, it was best to ask now. 

[levereted]

Taking note of his almost solemn expression thanks to her eyesight within the dark, Velvet makes a mental note to try and make him feel as comfortable as possible. Perhaps that in itself is an impossible feat seeing as they are currently within a deadly labyrinth of all places, but she truly believes it’s the thought that counts. Surely, in some way, shape or form, her gentle nature will make him feel more at ease, right?

Or so she likes to think.

"Well… I’ve always been a light sleeper… Being in this place doesn’t really seem to help with that," she admits, scratching her cheek lightly as she reaches over to get something. With a few sparks, a torch is lit moments later, to which she hands it out to the male, noting that he can’t see without it like she can.

"Do you… Want to keep me company?" she pauses, before sputtering out: “I mean—!! You could… Help me keep watch, if you want,”

[magecrafting-blog]

     Between the dark of night and to the morning, he notes how deathly quiet the labyrinth itself is. With nothing but a rustle coming from the magus himself, there isn't another sound to be heard-- aside from the voices coming from the two currently awake. Therefore, he allows himself to relax; while solemnly keeping an eye on the only member asleep.

     ❝I suppose it makes sense,❞ thumb rests on the bottom of his chin, attention turning towards the torch as it was lit; heat warming his senses, as he likes it. ❝This labyrinth is quite dangerous.. It's better to be awake, I think..❞ No, that was foolish to say.

     Understandable, he figured. ❝W-What?❞ he too, splutters; finger ghosting over the left of his cheek while finding the ground oddly interesting. ❝I don't see the harm in that.. There isn't much left to do here anyway, I figure.❞

[levereted]

The past few days have felt like like a dream to the faunus… Not in a good way, of course. Even though her team seems to be faring well for the time being, she can’t help but worry if their luck will continue throughout their journey. She doubts it, seeing as this labyrinth is filled to the brim with danger, but she can always hope, can’t she?

Perhaps due to her thoughts, she finds herself unable to sleep. Deciding to keep watch since she is unable to sleep, the brunette watches the darkness carefully from a rock she has seated herself upon, her ears twitching slightly every so often. Her attention is brought to her side, however, as she notices one of her teammates approaching.

"… Are you unable to sleep, too, Waver…?"

[magecrafting-blog]

     With a rub of his eyes, a stiff yawn and taking a gander to his surroundings; there's many things which cause the magus to wonder why he was here-- of all places. Truthfully, he's pleased to be within a team of those he knows, not that he'd mention it. While not knowing his team well enough, it's about the only mention which pleases him thus far.

     These past days have weighed heavily on his shoulders, knowing somehow he was the one holding his team back. Ever since Rin made the side comment, he's felt this way-- a little annoyed, because maybe he was nothing but a nuisance, after all. He doesn't notice his other team member in the dark, not until she speaks.

     ❝Yes, I haven't been able to sleep very much these past days,❞ A pause. ❝I didn't realise I wasn't the only one.❞

[aqueoushumor]

One of the most understated and shortest fights in the series, but no less amazing in its own way.

Even though the other brunette explains her skills rather casually and as if they couldn’t do much, Velvet still stared on with admiration. It’s still rather impressive, she thinks, to hear what other people here are capable of, especially when they are mages like herself. Still, she quickly adds in a hasty nod of confirmation that she had listened, her head tilting shortly afterwards as Waver began to speak as well.

"… What is ‘prana’…?" she can’t help but ask, choosing not to push about his rather… Interesting weapon replacement.

"Oh, but—…! It’s good we won’t be in a bad spot if we run into something," she manages to say quickly afterwards, her tone and expression looking rather hopeful. To Waver in particular, she attempts to offer him an encouraging smile of sorts, hoping he won’t feel too bad about himself in comparison to Rin or even herself… As bizarre as that sounds to her.

"I just… Hope we don’t become too lost… You know, I’ve never been in a maze or labyrinth before,"

[asciiist]

     It’s hard to avoid staring at Waver when they hear about what he’s able to do. That is very … well, useless and while she’s aware it isn’t her fault, Rin lets out a sigh followed by a groan. “Which means if we get into a fight, it’ll be just two of us instead of three. Fun.” She didn’t mean to be rude about it, but well…

     She didn’t plan on dying her, or any of them for that matter. Pain isn’t fun to experience and rather annoying. Her eyes flicker over to him for a second then Rin looks away.

     ”We’re not in the best spot either.”

     Good ol’ Rin not hesitating to ruin the moment or trying to lift peoples spirits up. She did prefer to face reality after all and be blunt about it too. Sugar coating never works well. Hearing Velvet, she nods her head. "I doubt it — you should be able to give a good sense."

[magecrafting-blog]

    He doesn't enjoy the way Rin is looking at him, not at all. He understood his abilities right now were useless, but for that he'd only blame the scientists-- most definitely not his own circuit count. ❝It's the magical energy used as the power source for Magecraft,❞ he adds, answering Velvet's question; not daring to take a peek at either members of the party.

     ❝Blame the scientists for that one.❞ begrudgingly speaking, thereafter.

     Not that Waver was much of a fighter, but he supposes there's a few magic spells that might have helped the team-- if only he was capable of using them. ❝Then we should continue walking..❞ The magus isn't in the happiest of moods, thanks to Rin's distasteful comments.

     ❝At least if we somehow manage to find ourselves lost, we won't be alone.❞ Really, it's just about the only sane memory which remains. ❝Right, you did say you are able to see in the dark-- I believe that gives us some sort of advantage.❞ Especially since most aren't capable of doing so in the darkest of nights.

With a quick, shy nod of confirmation, the brunette takes a step forward followed by a brief glance back to the other two, waiting for them to follow suit. Though she has no clear idea of how exactly to navigate in a labyrinth, especially one as dangerous and grand as this, she supposes that for the time being she’ll have to rely on her instincts… Unless her teammates have some other plan in store.

She hopes they do.

"Right, so… Unfortunately, the scientists have limited my abilities…" she begins quietly as she walks alongside the two, hazel optics glancing between the duo. “My speed and strength isn’t quite the same as it was before… And I can’t open my box, but…” she pauses for a moment, scratching her head lightly as she looks to the ground for a few seconds with a sheepish expression.

"I’m a faunus so… I can see in the dark perfectly and hear things you two probably can’t…" though she supposes it had been obvious from the start… The first part, anyway. "What about you two…?"

[asciiist]

     Perfect! Rin clapped her hands together. Team work is going well so far and she did feel proud about that. It would have been awful if she got stuck with people that she couldn’t work with at all. That only ends one way and it’s called ‘disaster’.

"Sounds like we have a good plan,"

     Brushing the dirt from her skirt, she made her way to beside Velvet and paid close attention to what she explained to them. A few of those powers she had been able to guess, but it looks like some where natural and didn’t get tampered with.

 ”I can use magic, two different ‘spells’ which in total can be used four times. Both do damage yet one might be able to stun and the other will lower luck,” she started. "I doubt monsters have much though." That is what she will be hoping at least even if it renders that code cast semi-useless.

     By the sounds of their powers so far they were quite offensive. They didn’t need to worry too much about attacking in that case depending on what they come up against.

[magecrafting-blog]

     He's surprised by his own actions, never would he have agreed to something so grand before his time in Japan. Now he supposes it'll work well in his favour, times changed and with the knowledge of new-found abilities-- they may stand a chance.

     Taking one last look, he follows the pair; eyes darting left to right now. This was taxing enough, only imagining what was ahead of the group. With a stride in his step, he takes a moment to listen to Rin and Velvet's skills-- suddenly he feels much more useless.

     ❝As of now I'm only capable of detecting residual prana...❞ adding in a low voice, he feels embarrassed even admitting it. ❝-- and all I own is a toy alchemy set.❞ Yes, this was definitely embarrassing.❝Which is why I thought it would be best to keep away from all monsters.❞

[levereted]

[levereted]

"O-Oh! Right… I hope so, too. Nice to… meet you," despite the circumstances she wants to add to her soft comment, instead offering a gentle nod. Running away isn’t something she’s too keen on either, but if the situation calls for it then… Well, it just couldn’t be helped. There’s no use in sacrificing people just to win a battle, after all.

"And I am but… Well, we can’t let that stop us. We just… We just have to stick together and persevere," she sounds hopeful, yet her expression still reflects that of concern. She can’t imagine their current luck of staying out of danger to go on forever…

"But the good news is that I only hear water up ahead… And nothing else. Should we go that way…?"

[asciiist]

     Blinking twice, Rin did find herself to be surprised by Waver. A faint smile spread out on her lips and she gave him a firm nod. She didn’t need to worry so much about having to carry them through this and this is a relief for her. The magus turned her attention to Velvet and nodded her head.

     It is a shame that they’re so limited… "Okay, we need to sort out of magic or abilities and plan while we move. Although we need to be quiet given if someone hears they can use that against us." Even though everyone is stuck in this, Rin decided to stick to the mindset everyone would be an enemy.

     She did find herself curious about Velvet now. She had to be something with a rabbit, and maybe because of that a lot of her senses are like that. The magus decided against asking though. "I say that we should."

[magecrafting-blog]

     With a faint sigh of relief, Waver looks left from right-- he may have been a coward once upon a time; but now he was far from it. Certainly he suffers from bites of annoyance, and his snarky attitude becomes present; there's some things you simply can't shake, after all.

     Rin was right, they needed to figure out which abilities would be useful-- and soon. It was telling to think at any moment they could be thrown into the heat of battle; while wanting to avoid it-- at all costs, he knew not to run forever.

     ❝Yeah, it would be wise of us to do so.❞ Slowly adding, now standing to his feet. It would become a nightmare if any others heard their conversations; so he gives a quick nod to assure the pair this was the right decision.

     ❝I agree,❞ With another nod, he brushes the dirt from his pants; squinting in the direction where they would sooner be headed. ❝It may give us the needed time to begin coming up with a plan.❞ Scrambling to his feet, he takes one last look to his surroundings; determined to come out of this alive. ❝Ready when you two are.❞

It seems that both of her teammates have a low tolerance for… Well, most things, but the faunus decides to try and make the best of things as they are… Even if every outcome looks rather bleak at the moment. At the other brunette’s statement, Velvet offers a quick shake of her head in disagreement, clearly not keen on the idea of fighting at the moment either.

"I can fight if we need to, but… Like Waver said, we should avoid any fights for now," they’re at a disadvantage… Or at least, Velvet is. Though she can make due with her decreased speed and strength, small areas aren’t too good for her fighting style. "Besides that, I can’t hear anyone else besides us nearby… So we should be alright for the time being…"

"And any help you can offer is really appreciated, Waver… Even if it’s not with fighting," she offers the male a small smile before turning to the brunette, her ears twitching slightly curiously. “Oh… But what’s your name…? I’m Velvet,”

[asciiist]

      Neither of them looked interested or for the idea of fighting. Rin raised her hands up in the air and gave he shoulders a shrug. It mattered very little to her even if it did interest her that Waver didn’t have much faith in his powers.

     That was before she remembered the cap and some minor problems.

     Rubbing her temples, she left out a sigh. "I guess we should avoid them, but don’t be running away scared when we do need to fight." Because Rin didn’t plan on shouldering that burden. Her code casts were quite limited. What a pain.

     Blinking twice, the magus turned her attention to the girl. Right. It looks like they both know Waver and she had forgotten to introduce herself to the third member. "Rin. I hope that it will be nice to work with you, Velvet."

[magecrafting-blog]

     Running away wasn't a thought which crossed his mind, he was much more than that; only not impressed with the idea with such little resources on hand. The magus shrugs for the moment, only taking note of each word which slowly followed after.

     ❝I don't plan on running, I assure you.❞

     Even the thought would be an insult to a memory which remained, to that of his King and his own life which was saved that fateful day. There's a hint of assurance in his tones, when it came down to it; he'd become much more brave. However, with limited powers and abilities, that would be a bother. ❝Thank you, Velvet.❞ he adds with a nod, now facing the pair. ❝Though, I assume you are both limited as I am.❞

     It was only a bother he couldn't help with the fighting aspect, so quietly as ever, ❝I may have participated in a war before this, but this happens to be on a much grander scale as the one I know.❞ Especially while there was no home to be had, and you simply couldn't by the materials you needed to survive here.

     ❝Let's get through this.❞ Anything he needs to say to survive.

[levereted]

For a moment after the initial panic and confusion, the long ears of the brunette twitch for a moment, as if hearing something from afar. What she hears isn’t necessarily bad; it’s simply running water and in this case, it’s more than welcome. Due to the nature of her new surroundings, something as tame as a brook or river is much better than hearing the growls of a monster within the darkness.

But even so, the comfort it brings is temporary as the faunus’s expression fades back into one of worry, a small hand being brought up to her wrist to rub at the strange, new symbols on it. Fortunately (or unfortunately), it seems she is not alone in her endeavors, which makes Velvet push aside her fear for the moment in favour of acting more courageous and being someone that her new ‘team’ can depend on.

Which reminds her… Ah, yes! She does know at least one other on her team. Perhaps she does have some sort of luck, after all.

"Well… I guess we shouldn’t stay in one place for too long, right…?"

[asciiist]

     There’s a groan. A new experiment, what fun this will be for all of them. It’s different from the one she had previously been in and she took note of that. Rin also noted how she appeared to be in a team with people. One she had never meet before and another that she, well … sort of knew.

      This would be an interesting day, or days depending on how long it would take. She didn’t know how to feel about the situation given they were told they might have to fight.

     Rin sighs. They were no different then mice in a maze which … is basically what they are right now. She made a disapproved expression at that thought and looked at her new comrades. The girl is certainly interesting.

     And smart. Maybe.

     "Right. We will become a target, an easy one for that matter, if we do. Besides .. I wonder if we need to worry about other teams fighting against us rather than with us." Because that could easily happen.

[magecrafting-blog]

     Given an audible sigh, feelings of anxiousness-- sheer annoyance and disdain could be heard. He knows both figures in question, not well, mind you; but there was still a sense of familiarity. Ever winding maze catches his attention next, a scuffled groan as he scampers to his feet; making notice again of the two in front of his gaze.

     ❝Wonderful.❞ he's very clearly annoyed, yet relieved he currently isn't in a state worse for wear. ❝When things suddenly can't get worse...❞ They do.

     Fighting? Oh, no. ❝For one, I'm not a fighter,❞ Clearly. ❝Secondly, I don't doubt my abilities will be of any use.❞ Prana wouldn't be of any use, not now. ❝I would much rather avoid any conflicts.❞ Besides, Rider wasn't here to help him out this time; much to his added annoyance.

( morgan-mun here with a fairly important question. given how we all share feelings and emotions through the strings on our wrists with our teammates, does that mean if one person feels it, all people involved will collectively feel tfw no gf? )

TFW no gf is the greatest emotion a character could ever feel, so yes. If one character feels the need to put on a fedora, all the characters in a pact will suddenly spawn a fedora insignia on their pact symbol.

You’ve asked for it, it is so.
