Alice looks over him, her hands folded behind her back. She had a feeling based off the way he looked at her, he didn’t remember her. That was…. expected to be honest. She was rather forgettable, and was more surprised he remembered her name at all. “A while indeed. Surprised you even remembered me.”
“I was mostly joking, but if you wanted to go on one, I’d more than happy to go with you.” She sticks her tongue out at him, a small giggle escaping her. “But don’t worry about it, Cal, I was just teasing. I know you don’t like me anyway.”
it wasn’t that Callum necessarily, intentionally forgot. it was just that the battle in Xadia had taken up most of his thought space at the time. a lot had been riding on it and he couldn’t afford to be distracted by much of anything. but, now that the battle was over, they had been given a brief respite. still, he felt a little guilty hearing the way Alice spoke and how she was surprised he even remembered her. or that she knew he didn’t like her. but that wasn’t true. of course he liked Alice.
『 ❝ what? don’t say that. of course I like you, Alice. things have just been a little crazy. ❞ 』
he sighed and reached back to lightly rub the back of his neck awkwardly for a few moments before offering her a small smile.
『 ❝ but I really wouldn’t mind spending some time with you, if you want. ❞ 』

@madgirltm said: "Hey, you, I'm pretty sure you still owe me a date."
Callum jolted a little in surprise, the sudden voice surprising him and breaking him from his silent reverie of thought. the voice... he recognized it. it took him a minute or two to remember { it had been a while and a lot had happened } but the voice finally clicked in his head and he slowly turned to face the blonde now standing before him.
『 ❝ o--oh, hey... Alice. a d--date? ❞ 』
did he owe her a date? did he remember ever agreeing to such a thing? it was probably somewhere in his memory, but he couldn’t quite pin it down at the moment. but what could it hurt? he’d been away for quite some time, after all.
『 ❝ I guess it has been a while... ❞ 』
I want to make this known; it’s OKAY to flirt with my muse, it’s okay to say flirty things to them, yes, they may not react to it, they may not respond to it positively, but know as a mun I’m 100% OKAY with it. Especially if my muse is clearly attractive appearance wise, go ahead, flirt with them, if my muse is your muse’s type, it’s okay to flirt, we don’t have to be shipping, we don’t ever have to ship to have you flirt with my muse; I WONT think you’re pushing a ship on me either. But I just feel that some people are scared to have their muse be flirty to another because we a muns might take it the wrong way.
I’m not saying this goes for everyone, but I’m letting you know that it doesn’t make me uncomfortable and I’m fine with it.
jabbers-wild-world. // aaravos.:
@magusarcanum
There was nothing quite like the feeling of freedom, was there.. Renewed, recreated, reborn.. And he was once again feeling the world as it was. The air, the sun, the earth.. All of it. And he’d left the baggage behind. There was something about regaining his freedom that.. Well, meant he no longer needed a vessel to get about in this world.
And yet.. Somehow, there was a profound emptiness inside him too. A loss, a hollow place that.. that he couldn’t quite puzzle out. Not regarding Viren or his daughter, he knew that much. This was.. deeper. More primal.. Hm.. Odd. He was tugged out of his thoughts, however, by a sound behind him. Ears twitched gently, flicking ever so slightly back to listen. Like a cat that had heard the shuffling of prey nearby. And he turned, now staring directly at the boy.. Hm.. Viren had called him by name once, hadn’t he? Ah, yes.. Callum.
it felt odd to have him around. Aaravos. there was something about the elf that Callum just didn’t trust. and he wasn’t the only one. the other’s didn’t really trust him either. they didn’t know too much about him. but Callum knew one thing and that was that Aaravos probably had answers to the questions the young mage had burning deep in his mind. like the cube. the one his father wrote to him about. Callum still had a lot to learn about it and what it tied into with magic. what was so special about the cube? he wanted to know. he needed to know. so he was going to find out. he’d ask Aaravos directly and he wouldn’t take no for an answer. he wouldn’t back down, no matter how much he wanted to. he couldn’t afford to. not now. he approached the elf as casually as he could, green eyes set in a determined gaze, the cube in his hands, fingertips brushing the smooth surface.
『 ❝ I have some questions for you... ❞ 』

They both had an equal capacity to be STUPID, as it turned out, for the very moment Callum happened to ask whether he had spotted anything even closely resembling fruit, Zuko realized… Honestly, neither of them had much idea what they were looking for, now did they? So he let out a long and contemplative hum, and thereafter SQUINTED at the surrounding foliage (everything was so BRIGHT and sparkly here) with the scrutiny of one recognizing his own mistake.
—and a bit EXASPERATED in spite of himself.
“Uhh… y’know—” He brushed a finger over the petal of a flower as tall as his hip, then shot a look at his companion. “Not sure how great a judge I am of what’s EDIBLE… or you are, for that matter. Maybe we… shouldn’t just eat random things we come across; just a thought.”
so maybe Callum hadn’t completely thought the idea through. he wasn’t from Xadia and he had no idea what food in Xadia even looked like. he probably should have left that part to Rayla. she knew what to look for. actually, any of their allies from Xadia could have probably told him what he was searching for before. he could have written down a list. why didn’t he think of writing down a list?!
『 ❝ that’s a very good thought. I may have not thought this one through. just a bit. ❞ 』
well now he kind of just felt like an idiot. oh well. he could work with this. they could work this out. somehow. and maybe not eat anything that looked edible for fear of having no idea what it would do to them.
『 ❝ I probably should have left this to Rayla, huh? ❞ 』
and there was that ever familiar flush on his face, turning him a nice shade of reddish-pink.

Zuko barely paid half a mind to the hand encircling his wrist, to the way it guided him a few steps forward before its owner recognized some misconceived MISTAKE and pulled it away. A touch of a smile still lingered and PLAYED with the corners of his lips: for once not yet falling victim to some SILLY embarrassment in kind—and so at least one of them still had their head on straight. With a fondness did he regard the FLUSTERED mage, but Zuko spared him.
He pretended not to notice.
“Right. Something tells me we can’t get TOO turned around looking for fruit, but”—a shrug rose in his shoulders, and he moved to walk closer by Callum’s side—“I’ve been wrong before.”
now that they were on the move, Callum found himself finally relaxing again. maybe it was the fact that he hadn’t been sleeping properly or just the excitement of learning more and more magic that had him out of sorts. he wasn’t sure. for now, he’d only worry about one thing and one thing only. and that was spending time with Zuko. alone. just the two of them. how long had it been since the last time they did that? definitely been a while. they really needed to spend more time together. wasn’t that what people did when they were together with someone?
『 ❝ well don’t count us out yet. you never know. ❞ 』
with a chuckle, he gave the other a light nudge before his gaze wandered, taking a look around, trying to see if he could spot any fruit anywhere nearby. what did the fruit look like here? was it different from Katolis?
『 ❝ do you see any fruit yet? or... what looks like fruit? ❞ 』
❝ Evil and good are always at war inside you, Zuko. ❞
❝ Born in you … is the power to restore BALANCE to the world. ❞

“What, didn’t think I had it in me to be HELPFUL in any way?” he was quick to TEASE at the stuttered response, though humor both alight in his eyes and shaped on his lips proved he meant nothing by it. “Occasionally I’m not just a DEAD WEIGHT.” And it did in fact make for a good excuse for them to wander off on their OWN for a bit. (Zuko didn’t much mind escaping the pressure of SOCIALIZING with anyone else—pathetic as that seemed.)
“Let’s just… TRY not getting lost this time.”
『 ❝ what? no. I never thought that. ❞ 』
when Callum was flustered it was much easier to get him to overthink things. even though he KNEW Zuko was merely teasing him, he still jumped to reassure the other that he hadn’t meant anything in his statements. he never meant to call Zuko unhelpful or anything! definitely not. they needed to move before the mage really embarrassed himself. so, to avoid further embarrassment, he reached out unconsciously and grabbed Zuko’s wrist, gently of course, turning to head out with him, letting his grip fall a few moments later.
『 ❝ s -- sorry. but anyway, we won’t get lost. not this time anyway. c’mon. ❞ 』
at the very least, they’d at least try not to get lost.
I love when people are genuinely excited about our plots/ships. I love when I’m not the only one who’s like “!!!” I love it. @ my partners you will literally never annoy me by being overly excited about our ships I love it so much.

『 ❝ key of Aaravos -- oh! ❞ 』
fishing the cube out of his pocket, the Prince studied it curiously, shifting it to different angles, his lips curving into a soft pout. truthfully, he hadn’t really been thinking about it much the past few days or so. he was still trying to come down from everything that had happened. but now that they were all seemingly safe, he really should get back to trying to figure the thing out.
『 ❝ I haven’t actually really looked at it... but I really should see if I can find anything about it somewhere. ❞ 』
who knew what secrets the cube held, after all.
