belle-alouette:
“Desires and ambitions are only as strong as the willpower you put behind them. Without that they are nothing more than a hindrance. A lie–if you will. More to yourself than anyone else.” Perhaps it was a somber way of looking at things, but Alaudi wholeheartedly believed in it. A person was only as strong as their accomplishments in life.
Sure, that might be saying something for the Cavallone don before him, but the skylark would just feign ignorance. He do so best when it came to the other.
“Last I remember, you stumbled into it. Like a fool.” Icy hues glanced to the side to take in the older male’s visage as he spoke, lips pulling up into a hint of a smirk.
“Quite literally, in fact”
“ And my willpower is not strong, in your eyes ? Perhaps I should be trying harder then.” He spoke, a prominent eyebrow raising, the smirk still steadfast on his lips; a refusal to let it fall rather than a need to. Though really if the blonde were trying to remove it, he was going the wrong way about it; especially with that slight smirk on his lips. That in and of itself was enough to make a man crazy. A snort leaves his throat, a hand removing itself from his pocket to tap at his temple lightly. “ Trick of the trade, uccello. Falling head over heals is all part of the plan.” Of course it wasn’t, but he’d rather not be embarrassed while he was trying to be smooth.
