“Have you ever just wondered why some people keep texting you, even when you never reply?” He commented to the person next to him, obviously a little rough after just having gotten off work to get a text from his ex fiancee.
❝ maybe they just want to be friends, mate. ❞ nate shrugged checking his own phone for a moment. ❝ lotta lonely people out there in the world. or maybe they’re trying to get under your skin, whoever it is. ❞
stokes tugged one of the earbuds out of his ears, a frown already settling on his lips. the WIND picked up around the duo, stokes hoped that he could use it as an excuse and tell the other person that he could not hear them over the wind. “y’know, earbuds are pretty much a universal sign that you don’t want people to talk to you,” he muttered, a scowl on his face. the gusts of wind came harder.
with a roll of his eyes, nate glanced around the both of them as he noticed the wind pick up, his hair rustling over his ears. he couldn’t help but smile, as stokes’ dramatics always entertained him. ❝ is that really necessary? ❞ he asked with a soft chuckle. ❝ i know i’ve already got a cloud over my head, but gimme a break, here. what’s next? rain? ❞
❝ i know this might be a weird question to ask of someone, ❞ nate began as he scratched his temple, ❝ what do you think of pythia. y’know, as a whole? ❞ he shook his head in thought. ❝ i can’t put together a cohesive narrative around this place, without giving too much credit to the ol’ folks upstairs. and i don’t think they need the ego boost. ❞
‘ what do you want ? ‘ she questioned, in a somewhat bitchy tone. some dickhead had already pissed her off and her shift had just barely started. zelda wasn’t exactly known for her patience, after all. the young woman absentmindedly cleaned a glass while raising her brows at the other, waiting for an order.
what was nate doing in a bar? was he out of his mind? he knew the cliche; some addicts he met could handle the temptation. they could be around the substance and resist. but they had been sober for years. and nate felt like he was standing in a minefield. unfortunately, this was the only place he heard he could find zelda. he’d have to bite the bullet for now. ❝ how good's your shirley temple? ❞

【 HARRY STYLES, TWENTY-FOUR, CIS MALE】child of poseidon? oh, you must mean nathaniel murphy! they’ve been in pythia for three months, and they’re a total taciturn. he is a photojournalist, and he is pretty good at electrokinesis - from all those years hiding from monsters, of course! i also hear that he lost his sister at a young age, but maybe that’s just town gossip! - lion, 19, cst, she / her
okay so nate is 24 years old and A VIRGO so pick up all that shit ! he’s also v loosely based on camille parker from sharp objects bc i finished that series like two weeks ago and im .... quaking.
no but really, he’s labeled the taciturn because he’s always watchin. he tends to pick up on other people’s emotions v easily !
sexuality?? gr8 question ! idfk ! i think he’s pan ! we’ll figure it out together if that’s okay.
he’s got a dry sense of humor but he likes a good laugh.
better at listening rather than speaking. he’s a good lad.
child of poseidon so this mans is emOTIONAL, but you know what, he can handle it. loves the ocean obviously. it calms him down.
has the power of electrokinesis meaning he can kinda control electricity. headcannon that the lights flicker when he’s uncomfy. (i still gotta work out what that means for him tho, like the technicalities. wot eva)
he used to live in nyc, where he was working as a photojournalist. his life in the city was super fast paced and now he’s trying to chill out in pythia, where he spent some of his formative years.
he’s only been in three months because he’s fresh out of rehab. he’s been drinking since he was very young and only recently has it caught up with him.
he mostly started drinking after his younger sister died at a young age. since then, he’s been clutching to alcohol.
he’s sober now and has been for three months. he’s trying to figure out how to live that way.
he’s a good guy. bit misguided. but he’s trying.
as far as being a demi god goes, he’s mostly worn it as a chip on his shoulder. he really would prefer to embrace the human part of his life, but that didn’t really work out so well for him. so now, he’d like to get more in touch with what actually runs through his veins.
that’s it for him ! if u wanna plot, feel free to hit me the fuck up or check out my connections pages i’m LITCHRALLY down for anything love u ! i’ll be waitin to plot with you lovelies w some sunchips.
