curiosity

So I guess I'll go home Into the arms of the girl that I love The only love I haven't screwed up She's so hard to please But she's a forest fire I do my best to meet her demands Play at romance, we slow dance In the living room, but all that a stranger would see Is one girl swaying alone Stroking her cheek

jisoo only knowing the phrase “i’m broke” in thai is such a mood

@ofmirrormagic | based on this. 

Wanting to go to a party was completely out of Bryan’s nature but he was starting to think he was wasting his life away by not getting out more often. He was already a senior in high school and he hadn’t ever attended to one single party. He had decided to drag one of his friends, Blue, along having begged her ceaselessly. The moment they walked into the rather loud atmosphere, Bryan was practically dragging her along in his search to find something to drink. A little alcohol would always help loosen things up. He briefly let go of her hand to grab a drink before offering one out to her, “Come on, drink up! You’re like one of the prettiest girls I know and super rad – so what do you have to lose?”

[ofmirrormagic]

This wasn’t what Blue had been expecting when Bryan wanted to hang out. In fact, she had been fairly certain he was the type to avoid parties. She had a feeling he got some sort of confidence boost, what with the way he was dragging her around, but she had know idea where it might have come from. Of course, now that they were here she couldn’t exactly ask without having to yell over the music and people. “Um, nothing much, just all of my dignity when I get drunk and do something stupid.” She took the smallest of sips, not sure of what it was an absolutely positive she was a lightweight. “Not to mention I don’t even really know what to do at these sorts of things.”

Why had this happened? Hella had no idea, but for now she appeared to be a floating, incorporeal spirit. Though, she wasn’t sure how to act - surely this should be a more distressing experience, yet it wasn’t. While pondering this, and many other questions, Hella did something she maybe thought she shouldn’t - pass through someone on the street. “Shit!“ The woman exclaimed, because it felt weird to do that, even for her. “Sorry! I’m still not 100% on ghost etiquette,”

[ofmirrormagic]

Blue just stood in silence for a few moments, eyes wide as she stared at the women who literally walked through her. “Well, it was definitely uncomfortable. Not from a physical feeling, just emotionally.” She let out the breath she hadn’t realized she was holding. It wasn’t like she had been hurt. There was no reason to freak out. Instead she tried to keep a regular conversation going. “My aunt claims she can talk to spirits. Maybe she knows the rules you’re supposed to follow to seem polite as a ghost.”

like/reply for a starter: blue has become invisible to everyone except herself

@apricotjvice ( sebastian )

blue told herself she wasn’t going to mess around. she was just going to sit and wait. surely her family would come home and take notice of her eventually. not just that, but they were all weird enough that they probably wouldn’t even care that blue was invisible. sure, they’d probably try to clean her energy to fix it, but she could deal with that. eventually though, she had gotten restless. blue went out, promising herself she would just walk around, get some fresh air, and then head home until she could figure things out. walking around though, she couldn’t help but notice someone, someone alone. it was too easy, to walk up right behind them where they couldn’t notice, and lean over close to their ear. “hey, it’s me, your dead relative. listen, i don’t know how long i’ll be able to talk to you like this, but i need your help, for um, for revenge.”

[ofmirrormagic]

M!A: You’ve become invisible to everyone but yourself.

“I shouldn’t be seeing this as an opportunity to pretend to be a ghost haunting people, but you know, just something to consider.”

With everything Rey had been through she hadn’t had much time to focus on herself or her own personal needs, but after learning that on this planet you could purchase things with the swipe of a piece of plastic she found herself yearning to find comfort in materialistic needs. She wasn’t sure if she was ever going to see her friends again or get home (wherever home was) in general but she wanted to sweep those negative thoughts under the rug or so to speak. She walked down the street of this strange village with french fries and milkshake in hand, having ordered it from an odd restaurant. She was in the process of stuffing a few fries in her mouth when she noticed someone was staring at her. She swallowed the mouthful down before offering the paper container out to the other, “Do you want some? I can’t believe how good these things are! I’ve never tasted anything like it before! I can’t stop eating them either.”

[ofmirrormagic]

Blue had thought she was over the need to be psychic like her family. Now though, stuck in a town she didn’t know without any of her friends, that desire to be able to see more came back strong. She had been walking down the street, just kicking rocks up, wishing she at least had her bike so there was something to do, when she noticed another girl walking along with fries. She couldn’t help but stare. Sure, if wasn’t yogurt, but Blue was hungry. She paused, considering the other’s offer, before shrugging. It wasn’t like she knew Blue or could be offering out of pity. “Sure. Thank you” She said, grabbing a few fries and eating happily. “You’ve never had them before? They’re like the go to fast food, especially with McDonalds everywhere. Do they not have McDonalds where you’re from?”

[ofmirrormagic]

Do you miss Gansey?

“Um, yeah? Am I supposed to get embarrassed and try to pretend I don’t? Who would believe that? He’s a horrible pretentious dumb ass and if I see his boat shoes ever again I might have to call it quits, but he’s also managed to be pretty amazing and yeah I miss him.”

[apricotjvice-blog]

Piper was used to many strange things happening in her daily life, but it was easier to handle when she had the emotional support of her sisters – which was something she was currently lacking. Another thing currently missing was her family spellbook, something that would have been extremely helpful in a time like this. She tentatively rubbed at her temples in frustration before allowing her emotions to get the best of her, her powers causing a potted plant in front of her to completely shatter into tiny pieces. A look of surprise formed on her features as she noticed someone else had seen the occurrence, “Can we like… pretend you didn’t see that? I mean, pots randomly shatter all the time, right?” She tried to laugh it off, not necessarily comfortable with anyone knowing about her special gifts.

[ofmirrormagic]

Blue couldn’t help but jump when the potted plant near her shattered. She hadn’t been paying too much attention. Her mind was running at a million miles a minute, trying to connect nonexistent puzzle pieces and figure out what on earth was going on here. It would have been so much easier with Gansey here. In fact, she was pretty sure he’d be all over this. “Well first of all they don’t.” Blue said, turning her attention to the woman nearby. “And second even if they did the fact that you’re insisting on me forgetting about it makes it pretty suspicious like you had something to do about it.” Not that Blue was quite sure how. She didn’t seem close enough to the now broken pot. “What’s the point in trying to lie to a stranger?”

Alright, so… the mystery of where she was had yet to be solved.  But, Wendy had been excited to find a book in her bag and had settled herself on a bench to try and get some of it read.  Right when she opened it to where the bookmark was, she was instantly frustrated to learn that she had no memory of reading the first half of it.  Sighing, Wendy paused, deciding to see what sort of other clues her bag had as to where she might be, but found that it contained next to nothing: a wallet, with what looked to be a little money, a key ring with two keys, some hard candy, and a strange looking, black rectangle.  Pulling out the rectangle, Wendy studied it, flipping it over in her hands.  Some teenagers walked past, their heads buried in what looked like similar rectangles, but theirs were lighting up.  Frowning, Wendy looked back to the device, knowing for a fact they had nothing like it back home and trying to figure out how to turn it on.  The other kids had gotten too far away, so Wendy awkwardly approached the next person who came along, holding out the cell phone.  “I am dreadfully sorry to interrupt you.  And this does seem like an incredibly embarrassing question, but… you wouldn’t know how to work this, would you?”

[ofmirrormagic]

The fact that Blue wasn’t even too surprised by the situation aid a lot about her life. Sure, she didn’t remember ever being here before, but that didn’t mean anything. She was already convinced she was on top of a ley line. That amount of energy could pull her to another town without any warning, she was sure of it. Still, she had planned on getting confirmation.It had taken her a little while, but now that she knew where the library was she was walking fast and with a purpose. She needed to get a map of the ley lines, and fast if she intended to get home any time soon. Still, she slowed down, shooting the stranger a glance when they approached her. “Sort of.” Blue didn’t really want to help. Not only did she have more important things to do, but she had only been able to afford a phone recently. She could probably help, but it wasn’t her area of expertise. Still, what was she going to do, just walk away? Blue sighed. “What are you trying to do with it?”

Bert let out a laugh. It echoed in the night air as steam rose from his mouth in puffs. “I’m not gonna judge ya,” He said, voice full of humor. “You could dip ‘em in the lake for free. But I guess they’d freeze,” Bert was touched by her concern if he were being honest. He held his hands up in mock-surrender. “Now, don’t you worry missus. I’ve slept in far colder. And besides, who’d rob someone like me? I ain’t got nothin’ to take.” He gave a quizzical shrug, pouting a bit. “Well, maybe my hat but I’d fight for that,”

Blue managed to offer a small grin back at him. “Yeah, plus then it would smell all swampy, which is definitely not ideal for optimal sleep.” If there were a few things she would consider spending a little extra money on getting good sleep would definitely be on the list. She shrugged. “Bored teens looking for any sort of trouble.” She wouldn’t put it past people to try and rob a guy sleeping on a bench, especially people with too much time. “It is a nice hat. Definitely worth hitting a guy for.” She was joking now, managing to relax a little despite still being half convinced the man would be frozen when she biked by in the morning.

@bcstygirl event starter

blue sat on the floor picking at the yogurt cup in her hand. it was her third as she had insisted on eating as many in the fridge as she could. she claimed it was because the power in the old house was flickering on and off and that they would go bad if she didn’t eat them but that wasn’t really the case considering he power always tended to come back rather quickly. she felt a little weird with a stranger in her house but she had seen the other outside as the blizzard had started going and insisted that they come in. “so, um, this is pretty boring huh? we could try to talk to some ghosts if you want. there’s definitely a ouija board stuffed in one of the closets here.” that had never been used considering her family quickly decided it was worthless garbage. “we could probably even use the fancy candles my mom buys for readings.”

[jollyholidcy]

Bert peeked out from under his cap at the approaching stranger. She looked concerned and he wondered for a moment if he’d been giving off a wounded soldier vibe. “Dandy, I’d say,” he called out, a smiling growing on his face. “Gosh, I couldn’t ask you for that, missus. If’in I did it’d end up filthy. I roll in my sleep y’know,” Bert gave the girl a thumbs up, knowing that she had meant well. It wasn’t that he wasn’t in the habit of taking charity, but he tried to limit himself on how often he did.

@ofmirrormagic continued from here.

“Hey i never said it would be a super clean blanket. Laundry is expensive.” Usually she was a little weird talking about her social status. There was enough weird things about Blue. She didn’t need people to go off on the fact that she was poor too. Still, she was talking to a man sleeping on a bench and she had a feeling he couldn’t judge her. “Well if you’re sure you’re fine. I’m going to be pretty pissed if I pass by here tomorrow to get to work and you’re frozen to death on the bench.” Especially after he turned down a blanket. “Now you just have to hope you don’t get robbed.”

[jollyholidcy]

From the chiming of Sparkwood’s clock, Bert knew that it was ten o’clock. He lay on the park bench. His hat was pulled down over his eyes to spare them from the glare of the street lights. The night was, thankfully, rather mild so he was comfortable sleeping in the park with nothing more than a thick woolen jacket to cover him. Sure, it might not have be strictly legal for him to sleep there, but he figured as long as he wasn’t bothering anyone, it was no harm done.

[ofmirrormagic]

It wasn’t rare for Blue to be out at this hour. It was typically the time she managed to close the restaurant and head home. Of course, usually she was on her bike but unfortunately tonight she was walking. She was nearly home when she spotted a guy lying down on the bench. Despite her best judgement, which said she should not be talking to homeless people alone at night Blue approached him. “Um, you alright there?” She asked bluntly, tilting her head. “Do you need a blanket or anything?” Not that she was sure what she had at home that she didn’t need herself, but she could at least offer.

sabrinathewitchywitch:

Sabrina had told her date she would be getting something to drink before anything else. The ball was fun and all, but she was sure that maybe it wasn’t Lore’s thing, and that made her want to spice up the place. Out of nowhere, she heard a girl speaking to her? Or maybe it was to herself, but Sabrina couldn’t help but answer. “Actually, I’m having a good time.” She smiled, looking around at the others as they swayed in their dresses. “Get laid?” She asked with a shrug, there really wasn’t much but the obvious. 

Blue’s neutral face immediately shifted into a small frown. “Hard pass.” She’d barely even kissed anyone before. She wasn’t going to go run off with some preppy boy here just to try and fix her night up. She couldn’t even see how it would make things better. Blue knew she would rather suffer here on the wall alone. “I doubt anyone here is my type.” She really doubted she could let some rich guy take her home without making a snide comment about his lifestyle and ruining everything. “Plus, I think the time it takes to get out of an outfit like this would kill the mood.”

Yuno’s legs swung aimlessly as their freshly manicured nails dug into the wooden bench they were currently sitting upon. A white Christmas was something they always adored and the excitement hadn’t dissipated even after the holiday had come to an end now. A smile curled onto their lips the moment someone took a seat beside them, gaze drifting over to meet theirs. It was just then their eyes both met and they couldn’t help but smile. “Look at that, we both looked at each other at the same time – maybe we’re like soulmates,” they chuckled, trying to pass it off as a joke.

[ofmirrormagic]

Blue had been walking around for a little while. There was something serene and quiet about the time around the holidays, when everyone was still spending time with their families. She couldn’t pass it up. She had eventually gotten tired, moving to sit down on a nearby bench. Blue had spared a quick glance at the person sitting next to her when their eyes met. “Oh yeah, maybe I guess.” She commented, a small huff of laughter following the words. That sort of stuff, as much as Blue loved in concept, she always forced herself to push away. No point in dwelling on something that couldn’t be real. Still, she couldn’t help but consider it now. “Do you think a soulmate could actually be real though? Like somewhere in the universe there could actually be someone made to be perfect for you?”

@ofcindyiisms

if there was one thing blue had quickly learned it was that she was bad at getting presents. she had never really done it before. her family didn’t buy christmas presents for each other, and she never had friends that she was close enough to to need to shop for. overall she felt like she was definitely bad at it. she had gone with a necklace, a simple pendant, as well as a book. well, it was less of a story and more of one of those collections of short poetry, but blue was pretty sure those were popular right now. plus, it was much easier than trying to stalk the girl and figure out what books she liked. that would definitely be too weird. “cindy, right?” blue asked, quickly walking up to her. she just wanted to get it over with. “here.” she thrust out the two neatly wrapped boxes. “merry christmas or whatever you celebrate. if you don’t like it i will totally respect if you decide to re-gift it.”

Spirits of Yule

Just gonna put this out there, this is one of the worst things I’ve ever done. But this year my aunt is convinced that some sort of holiday spirits exist, so we’re all writing letters so she doesn’t freak out. Honestly, if I really thought there were spirits I wouldn’t write this. I’d take the risk just to see if they showed up. Maybe then I could understand what my family does. Or, at the very least, I could try to fight whatever spirits show up at my door, which would be satisfying in its own way.

I don’t really want anything for Christmas. I’m used to not getting much. Some yogurt cups would be cool. It’s not exactly a special present since I buy them for myself all the time but it’s guaranteed to be something I enjoy. Leave it in the early morning though so they aren’t like warm underneath the tree. Maybe a new pair of sneakers. Mine are kind of worn out from being worn to work every day. I don’t know and I don’t really care. It’s just a day some dude was born. I don’t need anything. Some new sewing needles also. I’ve been trying to add pieces of a quilt to this one jacket I have but I keep losing my needles.

If anything though I would just like to have all of my family together. Not like I have any other friends to spend the time with. So if some weird ass spirits send my aunt running off ‘m going to be pretty pissed. I didn’t take two days off from work for anyone to be missing.
