“So,” Vivien began, attempting to draw the attention of the person seated nearest to her, a small smile gracing her scarred lip. “If you were turning, say, a hundred and two next week… How would you celebrate? Asking for my…” She sighed. “— Self.”
“Well, it depends on what you like to do, Viv.” Alex said, wrapping his hands around the coffee mug before him. “I can tell you what I did on my one hundred and second birthday, but I doubt it’ll be as appealing to you as it was to me.”
“Shit!” A loud fumbling nose made Willow shoot straight up in her chair. Adjusting to a new college had been harder than she’d have hoped, and it was reeking havoc on her sleeping habits. She had barley found her room the day before and had spent most of the nice pacing the campus to avoid being alone with her thoughts. When her eyes adjusted and she was fully awake, she realized she wasn’t alone anymore.”Sorry..” She grumbled
Alex rose a brow, it wasn’t uncommon to find students sleeping in random locations. Most chose the library for a nap during an all night cramming session. Though in the guidance office lobby was a new one for him. He cleared his throat. “Rough night?” He asked, crossing his arms over his chest.
dahliablake:
“You can?” Dahlia asked, a hint of confusion wrapping up in her tone. Being so starved and thirsty, the redhead had lost her ability to identify others of her kind, but it seemed like this man had no trouble at all. “What do you want in return?”
He shrugged his broad shoulders as he leaned back in his chair. Arms folding across his chest, he smiled at her. Alex wasn’t one for conditions. When he did something, he expected nothing in return, though this was different. “Simple, just try not to eat the other students.”
dahliablake:
Dahlia knew she looked horrible. Skin paler than usual, deep set and dark eyes, hair in a mess around her defined features. She felt uncomfortable as he looked at her, like she was embarrassed for being in such a state, but since arriving at Briarcliff, Dahlia had tried to keep out of the spotlight — and she knew that feeding on an unsuspecting student would have had severe consequences. “Depends on what you have in there.”
Alex was very well acquainted with this scene. With all his years wandering the earth, he could pick out another vampire from a mile away. And despite being with Briarcliff since the massacre, he tried to help as many as he could. Though, up until recently, those were few and far between. “I have what you need. It’s your call but once you step out of this office, there isn’t a guarantee I’ll be able to help you. The vampire said, picking his thermos off the desk, taking a sip of his own lunch.
An obscure amount of time had passed since the last time Dahlia had actually FED on anything worth mentioning. Her body was officially going into shock, and she feared that if she didn’t feed soon — she would face an worse fate than she couldn’t have originally imagined. Everything was getting on her last nerve, and her worst fear was coming through — the loss of control. “Can you… quit making so much noise? It’s so irritating.” The redhead snapped, immediately feeling guilty about it, but not quite ready to apologize yet. “What are you DOING, anyway?”
Alex’s eyes glanced up from his paper. He’d been filling out paperwork for what felt like hours now and despite all this, he was nowhere near finished. “Paperwork.” The vampire said simply, putting his pen down as he folded his hands together. Leaning into the desk slightly. “And quite a bit of it. Are you sure you don’t want anything?” He asked, eyes flickering towards the minifridge he kept in his office.
“What? Just because I don’t need to eat, doesn’t mean I don’t want to.” Riley smiled softly as he took a bite of his pizza. He honestly didn’t eat much, but when he did, it was usually some kind of comfort food.
“Now, I’m not judging.” Alex said, he quiet enjoyed his food. “But pepperoni? Really?” The vampire crinkled his nose, flashing teeth in disgust.
novawatts:
“You’re thinking about… how I’m struggling to do this.” Nova smirked, her eyebrows raising slightly. That was the only vibe she was getting from him, but of course, she could have her fun. “And how you wish you were also a witch instead of an old vampire, and how adorable I am.” Shaking her head. “Kidding, kidding. You just think I’m a mess. Right?”
Alex looked up at Nova, trying not give anything away on his face. He shook his head, she had a long way to go but Alex didn’t mind helping out. “Hey, I’m not that old, actually for a vampire, I’m pretty young.” He sighed, “Adorable maybe, but no, not a mess.” Alex paused a moment, holding his hand out for her to take it. He wanted to comfort her the best he could. “I think that you’re learning, that takes time. You’re doing good, just keep trying.”
novawatts:
Rolling her eyes, Nova nodded her head. Around other people, she was extremely confident in her magic and in her ability to cast spells. Hell, she had cursed someone with immortality before, she could easily violate the mind of someone else. But something about Alex was making her feel nervous. “Okay, well, are you thinking of something bizarre? And don’t try to picture me doing something ridiculous, because that wouldn’t be amusing for anyone but you.”
For someone who didn’t know Nova, they wouldn’t be able to tell but Alex could see her struggling. He wanted to help, he was an adjustment counselor after all. “Nope, mind is completely clear. Years of meditation, you should try it.” Alex grinned. He may not have been able to tap into other’s minds, but he could control their subconscious in order to change dreams. It was almost the same. Almost, but not quite. “Go for it.”
novawatts:
“I already told you,” The blonde laughed again, walking slowly towards him. “I haven’t mastered it, and don’t tell anyone that. I’ll have to silence you forever.” For a moment, Nova wondered if her magic could work on a vampire, and then pondered what kind of spell she could project onto him. “Can I try something?” She asked, smiling as sweetly and as innocently as possible. “Think something obscure. Lemme see if I can tap into that grand ol’ mind of yours.”
“Practice makes perfect, Nova, you know that. Besides, if you fail I won’t tell anyone.” Alex mused, taking a step forward. “And you wouldn’t dare silence me, who else would let you experiment on them?” It was true, not many people or supernatural creatures would be willing to let a witch play with them like this. But Alex trusted her, she was a friend. Even if the idea of searching his brain sent a shiver down his spine. “Go ahead.”
novawatts:
For the first time in a long time, Nova let out a genuine laugh. “Really? You want me to CHASE you? Shouldn’t the gentleman be chasing the beautiful lady?” She spoke out loud, knowing that he was still listening to her. “Come on, you know I haven’t mastered the art of teleportation yet, that’s not fair. I can light this place on fire, though. Will you come out then?” She asked, holding her hand up and sparking tiny little flames from her fingertips.
“You’ll get there and no fire.” Alex called, from across the room. His eyes were still trained on the blonde as he waited for her next move. Making a come hither motion, Alex cocked his head to the left, “come on, Nova.”
novawatts:
“Then come on, Hot Shot, show me what you’re made of. What is it that you horrifying creatures of the night specialize in? And don’t say drinking blood.” Nova chuckled, gesturing for him to get up from his seat, too. “Mine would probably poison you, anyway.”
“Alright!” Alex said, slamming his hands down on the table as he rose from his chair. “If you want to have some fun, we can. Don’t go easy.” He said, a sharp grin forming on his lips before taking off into what appeared to be thin air. It’d been a while since he’d had a reason to truly use his abilities and quite frankly, his missed it.
novawatts:
Nova chuckled, shaking her head. “Why’s that matter? Are you afraid you’re not good enough or something?” With a raised eyebrow, Nova stood up from her seat, shrugging her shoulders as she moved closer to him. “Have a little bit of confidence, Al. It’s a good look.”
“Oh no, I’m good enough.” Alex said, raising a brow at her as he leaned back in his seat to get a better look at the witch. “I was just say, magical, I am not.” The vampire grinned. “I’m very confident in my abilities, thank you.”
novawatts:
Nova sighed. He was right, but she didn’t want to admit that. She had learned that the need to be responsible with magic was CRUCIAL. So many of her spells had proven fatal, but that didn’t mean that she didn’t want to have fun. “Well, playing with magic is fun. Come on. If you’re so sure you know how to play with magic safely, teach me.” She smiled as sincerely as possible, although she was still annoyed that he had ruined her fun. “You CAN teach an old witch new tricks, you know.”
“Wait, I’m sorry what?” Alex said, snapping his head up to look back at her. “I can try but you do know I’m a vampire, right? I’m not exactly an expert when it comes to magic.” It was true, but if it meant helping Nova, he’d try regardless.
novawatts:
“God, Alex, you’re so boring sometimes.” Letting him take the device from her, Nova frowned slightly - more dramatically than absolutely necessary for their conversation. “How else am I supposed to keep myself entertained here? All my assignments are actually finished already, and now I’m just… bored. If you don’t want me to play with magic, you better give me something better to do.”
“Boring is safe.” Alex reminded her, with a soft nod. Being supernatural, Alex always felt the need to walk on eggshells. One bad decision would be the end of someones life, or his own. He was all too familiar of the ramifications from that. “I never said you couldn’t play with magic just-” he paused, watching her, “ try not to scare the living to death, especially with those messages you were sending. I’m not in the mood to take care of things tonight.” They both knew what he meant by that, there was no need to elaborate.
Nova watched in amusement as she toyed with the stranger’s phone on the common room’s glass coffee table. From her seat on the opposite side of the room, the blonde used her own powers to keep herself entertained by shutting the device on and off, calling random strangers in the contact list and lastly, typing up some kind of cryptic message for the victim’s loved one to receive. She was having a blast until someone had distracted her, causing her to break focus. Looking them over, Nova didn’t sigh, not really, but she let her annoyance be known. “This place is awfully boring lately, isn’t it?” She asked, a frown resting on her features. “Wanna start some trouble with me?”
“Trouble doesn’t sound like the thing you should be getting into, Nova.” Alex said, before gently prying the stolen phone out of her hands. He wasn’t much for technology--never had been. But he could, however, see the appeal. “And as much fun as that sounds, I’m still employed here, I can’t just go run amok.”
