❛ | MYKA ]

Myka nodded and gave a curt smile, figuring the conversation was over and she could be on her way. However, the other started to speak again, and she didn’t pay attention as much as she should of. “Sure - I’m sure you could come up with something to make it work.” She caught ‘do you think I could..’ properly enough, but she was too busy stifling an eye roll to really pay much attention to the rest. She had had a long day already, and interacting wasn’t what she had in mind. Going home and playing with her animals and not having to talk to anyone at all.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴘᴇᴏᴘʟᴇ ᴡʜᴏ sʜᴏᴡᴇᴅ ᴛʜᴇɪʀ ᴇᴍᴏᴛɪᴏɴs sᴏ ᴇᴀsɪʟʏ were always meredith’s favourites; they fed the ever constant hunger with her and they provided her with hours of entertainment. even if she met them another time, they’d be as easy to rile up and that consistency was what she craved.      ‘     i’m sure i could. but i won’t. that’s just how it is.      ’

❛ | VICTOR ]

As the distinctly feminine voice echoed in his ears, Victor found himself shutting his eyes and taking a deep breath. Why did this always happen to him? When he finally got his bearings, he turned around and gave the woman a small smile before chuckling. “Something like that. It actually my brother. Do me a solid; if you ever meet him, don’t let him know how ‘cute’ you thought that was. He’ll never stop if you do.” 

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴀᴡʜ, ʙᴜᴛ ᴛʜᴀᴛ's ɴᴏᴛ ғᴜɴ. why wouldn’t i tell him how cute it was.       ’       she watched him in the way a wolf watched its prey, the way a hunter watched their next kill. still, a smile spread across her full lips.      ‘     it’s nice that he cares about you. at least he loves you.      ’

❛ | NADIA ]

“Years?” Nadia repeated instantly. “Doesn’t it get boring at some point?” she wondered. “Or maybe it’s just me. I don’t have it in me to be that patient.” She’d much rather unleash whatever rage she was feeling at the spot and be done with it. At least she’d eventually learned to save it for a different time if the circumstances weren’t in her favor. “No?” The second she voiced the question, it clicked that the blonde had to be a faerie. “Let me guess. You guys only use your teeth to share pretty smiles,” she stated and, with a shrug, put the bar in her pocket. “More for me.”

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴘᴀᴛɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ᴡᴀs ɴᴏᴛ ᴀ ᴠɪʀᴛᴜᴇ ᴛʜᴀᴛ sʜᴇ ᴄʟᴀɪᴍᴇᴅ to possess, but if there was one thing meredith could wait for, it was revenge. she’d never been good with being crossed. even as a child, she’d sit and wait for the perfect opportunity to get back at whoever hurt her. it was natural.      ‘      pretty smiles and bite. i love to bite. it would just taste like cardboard to me. it’s a little disappointing.      ’

❛ | LENA ]

“Shouldn’t we all, considering nobody would survive something like that?” she retorted simply with an indifferent shrug of her shoulders. “I’m just saying. Although I’ll agree that I’m not a fan of this weather either.”

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴅᴏᴇsɴ'ᴛ ᴛʜᴀᴛ sᴏᴜɴᴅ ʟɪᴋᴇ ғᴜɴ?      ’       meredith smirked, tilting her head slightly.      ‘     mass destruction is always my favourite thing. if we all just died. i think that’d be great.      ’

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ʏᴏᴜ sʜᴏᴜʟᴅ ʀᴇʟᴀx, ʏᴏᴜ ᴋɴᴏᴡ. this is supposed to be fun.      ’       teasing victor had become a daily occurrence. she held no shame in trying to fluster him and her hands massaging into his shoulders as she smiled cheekily up at him.      ‘     you’ve got a lot of tension in your shoulders. it’s like you’re scared or something. aren’t you enjoying the festivities?      ’

❛ | STARTER  — @margotscrms]

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴛᴏɴɪɢʜᴛ ᴡᴀs ᴄʀᴏᴡᴅᴇᴅ ᴀɴᴅ ғᴀʀ ᴛᴏᴏ joyous for the faerie’s liking. the bitter taste of happiness sat foul and heavy on her tongue like ever food she’d hated as a kid that her parents forced her to eat. all she wanted was someone to pester for the night, if only for her own amusement, but everyone seemed so damn unshakeable. in the crowd, however, she found a familiar face and a bright smile broke out over the blonde’s features as she remembered just how responsive the other was.      ‘     awh, margie, you waited for me.      ’      the teen beamed down at the smaller female, sidling up to her with little hesitation.

❛ | VICTOR ]

“YEAH BRO, I’m wearing clean underwear. I am sort of a grown up y’know. You don’t have to keep checking up on me… It’s unnecessary…” He trailed off before letting out a sigh at his brother’s next comment. “Yes, I’m showering regularly. Now I’m gonna hang up because I’m in the middle of the city and people are starting to look at me.” 

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴀᴡʜ, ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴀ ᴄᴜᴛᴇ ʟɪᴛᴛʟᴇ ʙᴀʙʏ.      ’      meredith taunted as she overheard the tail end of the conversation.      ‘     is that your mommy on the other end? making sure you’re being a responsible little adult? that’s so cute.      ’

❛ | LENA ]

The second the faerie spoke, Lena knew they didn’t share the same opinions. She didn’t like complaining for little things in the first place and after experiencing the most painful transformation, she’d learned not to get worked up over what she couldn’t control. “I’m sure the sun doesn’t care what any of us think,” she muttered cooly. “It’s probably older than time itself, and its heat would kill us all if the earth spun around closer to it.”

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴀ ʙᴜᴢᴢᴋɪʟʟ. ᴘᴇʀғᴇᴄᴛ. ᴍᴇʀᴇᴅɪᴛʜ ᴘᴇʀᴋᴇᴅ ᴜᴘ, leaning on her elbows as she regarded the other.      ‘     is that the point? like, who cares if everyone burns to a crisp? that wasn’t the point. i didn’t say spin closer to the sun, i said it was too cold and i want it to be hotter. it’s as simple as that.       ’

❛ | AVERY ]

Avery’s head turned with an eye roll towards the other fae.  “Oh, come on, Mer.  Be a pal and buy me one.”  Avery smirked over at the other winter fae in her true form, as she knew she was seen in hers.  Meredith was always a pain, but it was something Avery kind of appreciated.  She folded her hands with a huff, staring at the other fae. 

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴀ ᴘᴀʟ? ɪs ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴡᴇ ᴀʀᴇ? huh, i wasn’t aware that i liked you.      ’     the blonde kept stoic until a small smile cracked through and she rolled her eyes in return.      ‘     you owe me. come on, asshole.      ’ 

[mvrediths-blog]

❛ | MARGOT ]

“sweetie — do you know what the definition of a partnership is?” she asked with faux sweetness, condescension oozing from the question. “it involves mutual benefit. you can’t have a one-sided partnership; that’s just a takeover. if your boss doesn’t think there’s benefit to be had from a partnership with me, that’s fine — but i do know who all of his suppliers are, and would be happy to approach some of your fellow colleagues to discuss the employee benefit package offered at the executive club.” she maintained a cool tone as she spoke, standing and hoisting her purse onto her shoulder.  

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ɢʟᴇᴇ ᴡᴀs ɴᴏᴛ sᴏᴍᴇᴛʜɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴘᴀssᴇᴅ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛᴇᴇɴ ᴏғᴛᴇɴ. she’d been left cold and bitter, but how easily margot reacted was the equivalent of letting a child run through a candy store and pick whatever they wanted. her range of emotions was what meredith craved and the fact that they came so readily was only a bonus. humming exaggeratedly, bony hip jut out as the blonde pretended to think, meredith actually wondered how far she could push the other.      ‘     hm, so, are you ready? or are you going to keep talking? i thought we had meetings to get to.      ’

❛ | ASKA ]

‘   it’s always the same with you, darling — complaining about this and that. how BORING.   ’  the severity of her words meant nothing in the presence of the blonde. aska saw little reason to put up a front of any sorts around meredith – mostly due to the fact that she would wish for her friend to grant her the same courtesy. it set her at ease; dry and effortless conversation that lacked any filters, that did not require the acquisition of a second skin for comfort. ‘   you would look good in sunglasses.  give nature a chance, yes? she can only do so much with how hard winter has been on her.   ’

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴏʜ ʜᴀʜᴀ, ʏᴏᴜ'ʀᴇ sᴏ ғᴜᴄᴋɪɴɢ ғᴜɴɴʏ. winter jokes. i’ve never heard those before.      ’     fully aware that the brunette hadn’t seen what she’d become, only saw the sunkissed clear skin that meredith picked that mimicked what she’d appeared as prior to this stupid mistake.      ‘     i would look good in effective sunlight. this is pathetic.      ’

❛ | ESMERALDA ]

“I wish I could be bored enough to complain.” Esmeralda replied with a smile and a sigh, taking a sip of her coffee. She wasn’t in a bad mood, she was just tired and overworked. “At least the sun’s out, right? Although, I always heard that April showers were supposed to bring May showers. But so far it’s disappointing this year.” Esmeralda was hoping for warmer weather to hurry and come, because her son loved to play outside and go out on the boat, but it was just to cold to really enjoy the latter. “Does your job require you to be out in this weather?” Esmeralda was neither in a good mood, nor a bad one - she was just cruising on tired.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ʟɪsᴛᴇɴɪɴɢ ᴛᴏ ᴛʜᴇ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ᴅʀᴏɴᴇ ᴏɴ ᴄᴀᴜsᴇᴅ ᴛʜᴇ blonde to groan. she didn’t want the back an forth, she wanted a nice bit of angst and depression.      ‘      my job requires me to swing around a pole and grind my ass on guys for tips. it doesn’t care how much sunlight i do or do not see.      ’      the other’s exhaustion was nearly palpable, but meredith found no solace in it. narrowing her eyes, the teen gave a huffing sigh before going on.      ‘      the sun’s not doing much, so i don’t know why i should be happy that it’s out.       ’

❛ | MYKA ]

Myka sighed when she realized someone near her was speaking, and there wans’t anyone else around. She hoped the other was just asking for directions or something, but as she turned to face the woman head on, she was spouting some nonsense about the sun and the weather. Did wearing headphones not mean anything to people? Granted, she only had music playing some of the time, but they were there for a reason. On top of which, she just spent an overnight shift volunteering at the animal shelter, and it hadn’t been a good night. One of the litters of kittens found abandoned lost three of the four and the other little guy was so small. It angered her that people dind’t spay or neuter their cats before letting them lose. And breeders were the worst of them all!

Naturally, Myka decided to play the deaf card. “Sorry, I didn’t hear what you said.” She spoke with an altered speech that could dictate an accent of some sort. She removed her headphones as a courtesy, though.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴛʜᴀᴛ's ғɪɴᴇ. ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ʀᴇᴀʟʟʏ ᴄᴀʀᴇ ᴇɪᴛʜᴇʀ ᴡᴀʏ.      ’      the words were merely a formality, a means to break the ice so that the teen could gauge the situation that she was in. all she wanted in reality was to see just how easy or how hard it would be to bother the person she was currently with. cocking her head to the side, the winter faerie wondered aloud,      ‘      do you think that i could just... get rid of the sun all together. it’s doing nothing to heat this place up anyways.      ’

❛ | MAXINE ]

The blonde couldn’t help but literally start laughing as the other spoke. She wasn’t laughing at her, per se, but she was certainly amused by how negative the other seemed to insist on being. “Well if you’re gonna be all technical like that, Darlin’, then realistically, it could be worse. Could always be hotter or colder. Technically. Only, now, yeah - is what it is. But what’s the point in complainin’ too much about the weather? If ya want warmth, south’s the way to go. Otherwise, ain’t it a choice to stay in town up north here?” She was really just messing with the other, following in the realistic form of things.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ɪғ ɪ ᴡᴀɴᴛᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ʙᴇ ᴀ ғᴜᴄᴋɪɴɢ ɢᴏᴏsᴇ, ɪ'ᴅ ᴍɪɢʀᴀᴛᴇ ᴡɪᴛʜ the weather. seeing as i am not a bird, i don’t see why i need to go south til summer. if i want to complain, i’m going to do it. you’re not my mother.      ’     the other’s happiness did nothing for meredith. it was like eating too many sweets at once: the sweetness made her teeth ache and her stomach churn. this wasn’t what she wanted to feed off of.

“Yea? Personally I drink, but hey, you didn’t ask all that.” he mused, not really looking at her at the moment. He hummed to himself a bit, finally looking over at her with a incredulous scoff. “You really do complain, huh? The sun don’t give any real fucks about how you feel about it.”

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ғʟᴀᴛ, ᴅɪsɪɴᴛᴇʀᴇsᴛᴇᴅ ɢᴀᴢᴇ ғɪxᴇᴅ ᴏɴ the male before her, meredith had to wonder why some people were so damn stubborn. she didn’t WANT to have to manipulate the situation to get her end gain; that took far more energy than the blonde was willing to exert.      ‘      yeah well, i’m aware nothing and no one gives a fuck about me. but i give a fuck about everything, so if i want to bitch about the sun, i’m going to bitch about the sun.      ’

“Pretty sure the Moroi would agree with ya, Darlin’.” Maxine said with a smile on her face, shrugging as she looked towards the sky. “But I dunno, I’ll never complain about the sun. I mostly see the moon these days, which is nice, but ya know.. vitamin D and all that.” Maxine intertwined he fingers and stretched her arms over her head, soaking in the sun. “Sounds like you just missed your mornin’ coffee. And hey, could be worse - we could be in Australia, right? Heat’ll never be as bad as humidity.”

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴏᴘᴛɪᴍɪsᴛs. ʜᴇʀ ʟᴇᴀsᴛ ғᴀᴠᴏᴜʀɪᴛᴇ. lips twisting in a grimace, meredith refuse to let the other’s sunny disposition ruin her fun.      ‘     see, that’s where you’re wrong. it could not be worse. that’s the point. because i’m not in australia, i’m here. therefore in my actual reality, not the hypothetical one you’re posing, it’s too bright. it’s still too cold and gross like a winter day. it’s not what i want it to be, therefore i’m going to complain as much as i please.      ’      all she wanted was a reaction, anything other than this stupid smile and contentment the other sported.
