he hadn’t let himself be so gentle; not in a century at least. the world was tough, it broke people down to the last molecule, the only sure case for survival was to become as formidable as the world was. strong, unyielding, calloused at the best of times. subhuman at the worst. there was no place for tenderness in the world that was, only prudence. as he held her there, he drank in the moment, keeping the memory for what was sure to be another excruciating hiatus without corporeal interaction; stupid, but necessary. “ of course i will. i get bloody tired of myself.” it was mostly a joke, a small bit of teasing to relieve the tension around the sudden fright of sophie’s accidentally inflicted injury. still, there was truth to it; of all the insufferable eternals trent had encountered, he was by far the worst. there was no torture quite like living with yourself for innumerable centuries. “ but eternity teaches you to bounce back from petty annoyances, doesn’t it? even in the human world, time heals all wounds. no matter how tired i get, i won’t abandon you, at least not until you want me gone. ” his arms fell away as she pulled away from the embrace, a single nod and a soft smile finalizing the sentiment as he shifted back to the opposite couch. pulling free another cigarette, he set it between his lips and reached for his lighter. he lit the end, taking a long, slow drag as the tobacco crackled and burnt. “ i would imagine as much. i can hardly remember the last time i hugged someone before today. ” 

SOPHIE COULDN’T BE SURE the next time she’d have interaction like that. be so close to another. it’s why she hadn’t wanted to let go, and it had felt nice. but at the same time it had been a long while.. it felt strange too but the best kind of strange. maybe strange wasn’t such a bad thing after all. in the new world that she had found herself in. at least she wasn’t alone anymore. that was a nice thought too.

there’s warm, but gentle laughter that falls from her lips. almost resembling something of a giggle. “ imagine how i feel. it’s been just me and my own dumb jokes.” plentiful of moments were it was just her. it had made her appreciate being surrounded by others even from a distance. hearing someone else’s voice aside from her own. “ anyone ever tell you how wise you are ? “ it’s inquired nothing short of curious. “ i won’t. i like your company. haven’t you figured that out yet ? “

she pulls her legs underneath her onto the couch, hands resting gently onto her lap. bouncing back to how she is any other time, their conversation prior lingering in the back of her mind. “ me too. i also don’t see you as much of a hugger. am i right about that ? ” no offense was meant by it. she knew others weren’t like her in that sense. “ so tell me wise one, what are you plans for today ? care to join me maybe on a hunt ? “

          “ yeah, i guess, so, ” green eyes shifting in a roll, cori grinned, watching the ball of light a moment. beautiful and ethereal as always, far too graceful for someone like her to obtain. mediumship was a literal headache. “ although, it woulda been cooler if you weren’t you. i could have had an excuse to flex on the magic scale, maybe bust out some silver knives, flip my hair and pose like a charlie’s angel, but this is fine, too.” she teased, a soft thrum of amusement escaping her lips as she nibbled the crunchy end of another fry, bouncing her leg absentmindedly. “ hmmm, heard anything on the non-human front? it’s been pretty quiet in town. which is probably like… the calm before the storm.”

JUST TO SHOW OFF a bit -- maeve closes the hand holding a ball of light, and then opens her other revealing it again. before she does away with it, and continues munching on her fries.“ so is that you telling me if i somehow wasn’t me, you’d be happy ? ouch, cori just ouch.” it was an amusing thought that her sister would have flexed out, it earns laughter as she imagines the scenario in her head. “ aside from the fishermen thing ? no, though that too is just odd and we’re talking about a whole world of strange. something like that. better to continue to just keep an eye out. even more so.”

[prvttygirl]

xsupcrnaturals​:

          “ you and me, maeveikins.” she grinned, chewing slowly on one of the fries from her bag, eyes carefully focused on her sister. “ together forever, nerd. now eat your fries, they suck when they’re cold. ” cori chided gently, smiling as she stood and moved toward the fridge to poke her head in for a drink. “ so how’s tricks? any fun with the magic? any fun with boys? i haven’t seen you in so long you could be a whole different person, now. ” she gasped in mock terror, looking over her shoulder with wide eyes. “ have you been body snatched?! ”

“ WELL.. THERE’S WORSE PEOPLE TO be stuck with.” maeve truly wouldn’t have minded at all being stuck with her sisters. no other two people she’d want to be stuck with. as she pops another fry into her mouth.“ fries do suck when they’re cold.” a laugh falls from her lips as arms cross loosely over her chest. “ you know where you can find me ! everything is fine. and i always have fun with boys even though that isn’t what you want to hear i’m sure. my shop is fine too ! i can assure you i’m still me, you goof.” another laugh, she opens up her palm and there’s a ball of light in the palm of her hand. “ proof enough that i’m still me ? “

“ shh, shh, it’s alright. i’m alright. ” he cooed, voice soft as he held her there against him. “ i’ve healed already. it was only a small measure of pain, it fades quickly. you’re going to be quite strong like that for another few months at least, so be as gentle as you can. it’ll feel strange, at first, but you’ll settle into it quickly. ” trent replied, thumb brushing her hair back and forth, soft soothing comfort against her obsidian waves. he couldn’t recall the last time he’d truly hugged someone. he knew it had to have been in the distant past, when the last woman he’d loved had been alive. of course on occasion he’d throw his arm around a friend’s shoulders, heave them back and forth like a drunken sailor on shore leave, laughing and berating each other. but never like this. never a true embrace, not for a century at least.  “ i’m a vampire, soph. i’m probably one of the few creatures on the whole planet who can promise forever and follow through with it, yeah? ” a small, reassuring chuckle fell from his lips. as if on instinct, he tightened the embrace, not nearly enough to hurt her, but in silent promise that he wouldn’t let go. not until she was ready. “ i’m here, little one. it’s alright. ”

“ I’M JUST GLAD YOU’RE OKAY.” are the first words out of her mouth, unsure what she would have done if she had actually hurt him. she never wanted to hurt anyone.“ i didn’t realize i was so strong..” it’s one of those sheepish kind of laughs. truth is ? she had no idea she was strong enough to hurt anyone like her. undecided how she actually felt about that.

“ forever is a really long time.“ she has to point out, did he really mean that ? it was a strange concept to her, that there’s such a thing as eternity now. “ still, won’t you get tired of me at some point ? “ she doesn’t want to ruin the hug, but it blurts out before she can help it. “ i know. thank you for being here.”

the softness, the gentleness takes her by surprise but it’s accepted all the same. something she appreciates having someone there for her.. especially when there’s not really anyone else. it’s a moment. maybe a long moment, before she allows herself to pull away. not used to close contact anymore, but it had made her feel better made everything better. “ it’s been a really long time. since i’ve had a hug.”

[prvttygirl]

“ OH HI.. I’VE JUST.”  sophie knew her luck would run out eventually, it wasn’t like she could avoid bo forever.. or that she even wanted to. it was just easier than her thinking she could hurt those closest to her. maybe she already had by avoiding them and not talking to them. “ been so busy. it’s been too long, how have you been ? “ despite her warm words and the smile, she is still keeping her distance and usually she’d go in for a hug but she just couldn’t risk it.

        dark brows furrow at the question thrown his way, plus the utter awe the other seems to be in over a phone. but bo chooses not to question he lack of knowledge in that department, maybe she simply- didn’t have the funds for a phone? or maybe she was raised amish? either way, he chooses instead to offer some help. “there’s these things called phone towers, they’re big silver metal structures with white circle things on them like drums. they bounce signals around and those signals connect you with either phones so you can call them. each phone has a set of numbers, you put in the number of the phone you want and it calls that phone specifically.” bo taps the lock button on his phone and quickly types in his pin. his lock screen is his four siblings piled on top of one another during a pillow fight. though that soon is hidden as he opens his contacts. “see, each name has a number with it.”

“ IT’S SO COOL.” nixie can’t hide the sheer excitement at the phone in her hand, and she visibly jumps as it unlocks-- lighting up at her, almost scaring her because it had been so unexpected. blue eyes resemble a child in a candy store because of the wonder. “ how many other devices are there like this ? and do they all work like this ? it’s indescribable.. i don’t have any words.” she is then quick to try to explain, it was hard to and she couldn’t not entirely. at least. how could anyone explain that they were a mermaid and had spent their entire life up until now in the ocean ? “ i don’t have anything like that where i live.”

xsupcrnaturals​:

         an embrace shouldn’t have hurt, especially not a vampire, but the humanity that lived in sophie’s veins gave her the advantage of newborn strength. he felt the strain on his marbled frame, the gentle fracturing that twisted his insides. trent gasped and winced, quickly pulling her arms from around his ribs. it seemed a callous move, so sudden, so quick, though he hadn’t meant it to be.           “ careful, little one. you’re a newborn. your human blood is still in your tissues, it makes you a fair bit stronger than i am.” his voice was softer now, gentle in comparison to how their day had begun. “ here, like this.” he moved his hands to hold her upper arms, fingers delicate, as if smoothing dew off a rose petal. he glanced into her eyes a moment, offering a small smile as he pulled her slowly closer, guiding her back into a softer, more gentle embrace. his own arms wrapped around hers, cocooning her against him, his cheek resting atop her head. safe. secure.           “ if i’m honest, it never stops being scary. you never know who you’re going to have to leave behind, who you’ll have to become. but it gets easier to manage. and i’m here to help, yeah? come to me when you need me, soph, i’ll be here.” reaching his hand up, he delicately cupped the back of her head, thumb smoothing along her midnight locks, offering a semblance of comfort in the realm of uncertainty. “ always. ”

“ I AM, SO, SORRY.“ the words are ushered from sophie’s mouth in a frantic and apologetic motion. arms slightly flailing to further express how genuinely sorry she felt. but her words also mirror disappointment. the one person she thought she couldn’t hurt. “ i am so sorry, i didn’t mean to.”

unaware of how actually strong she is, to be fair she hadn’t touched-- nor hugged anyone since she had been turned. to afraid of something like this happening. or being too close to anyone. and now she had hurt someone, a frown pulls at the corner of her lips and there’s concern there too. “ will you be okay ? “ it’s asked gently but carefully and at being showed how to properly, without her strength she visibly relaxes. but she still feels bad.

it feels like the first time since she had been turned. that she could breathe. and that her mind had stopped buzzing and the buzzing ? that had stopped too, was a hug all she needed this whole time ? “ you can’t promise me that.” it’s mumbled but despite that she believes every word, and somehow she felt better than she had moments before and like she had forgotten entirely what she had been so scared about.“ but i trust you. a lot. don’t let go please, just a few more minutes more. i haven’t had a real hug in a long time.”

         “ yeah, well, it’s carry over from when i got roped into doing OKLAHOMA! in high school. also, you’re totally not gonna die an old maid, and if you are, i’ll be right there with you, baby sister. ” she beamed, turning the kitchen chair so the back sat up against the table. she climbed on it and sat, leaning her elbows against the arch of the seat, chewing another fry. “ mm- it’ll be great. lots of cats and some curiously large house plants, the neighborhood kids’ll think we’re witches and come and sneak around our property at night and then we pop out heads out of a window and scare the shit outta them. it’ll be a laugh. ” 

“ UH HUH, STILL IT’S pretty good. you know what ? i don’t care if i do, as long as i’m happy then does it matter if i’m an old maid ? “ maeve says somewhat hopefully, she had never worried about romantic relationships before or whether or not she’d be an old maid. laughter falls from her lips, as she is about to eat a fry. “ sounds like the dream. lots of dogs and cats, nothing better than that. and that is so ironic ! wonder where they got an idea like that from. it could honestly be worse, us against the world, huh ? ”

      ➷➷➷➷➷ etta moves around the store, arms full of different herbs, candles, oils, etc. it’s her usual stock up after using the last of her stuff on spells for high paying wives to curse their husbands. etta finds the whole cursing process therapeutic in way, she doesn’t know the men but- she gets to release some frustration into it anyhow. walking to the counter she places everything down. “you got any charcoal disks? the shelf is pretty cleared out.”

"  i MIGHT HAVE SOME IN THE BACK.“ maeve offers, it wasn’t just the charcoal disks that had gotten cleared out. the store had been exceptionally busy. so much so that she’d need to order quite a bit to restock. she couldn’t complain though. “ i got really cleared out today and yesterday. but i’ll go check for you.“ with that she heads towards the storage room and returns moments later with a couple charcoal discs in hand. smile still across her freckled features. “ you’re in luck ! these are the last i have, want me to ring them up too ? “

        bo practically freezes upon seeing the butterfly on the other’s hand. he doesn’t want to scare it away, he’s not the most graceful when moving around. “er- hey.” he offers a warm smile before green eyes focus on the butterfly. “they definitely are, though i gotta admit, having a little sister utterly obsessed with them kinda removes the pretty a bit? see it every day you don’t appreciate it as much.”

JENNIFER IS SURE IT’S A STRANGE sight, how peacefully the butterfly is sitting there. “ i can’t blame anyone for being obsessed with them.“ her other hand gestures to how beautiful it is, as she then raises her hand so it can fly away. it probably stopping to say hello, not that strange in the life of her. “ exactly, i just love wildlife and all of the creatures in it.”

for maeve, it would truly depend on situation but all in all she’d go with her heart and her logic. she trusts herself enough, and her heart enough that it wouldn’t steer her in the wrong direction. but if her instincts told her something else ? and the heart did ? she’d listen to her heart, and hope and pray that’s the right call.

sophie doesn’t trust herself enough with what she’s become, she fears that she can’t trust herself at all, or to think clearly anymore--so she’d probably go with her heart. and hope that she can trust at least some part of herself.

my clearest thinker, and most logical -- for tanya it has always been her logic, her feelings and her heart are always pushed aside in favor of others and for doing what’s best as a leader. she hasn’t made a decision based on what she’s wanted in a long time.

nixie always tries to do both, to her instincts and her heart, her heart is always doing what’s best for others and is kind in that way. decisions are always hard for her, because she thinks about everyone not just herself.

maeve absolutely believes in fate, and that things happen for a reason. how she feels about it ? it varies. she feels that fate can be unfair sometimes -- and that it can often ? just make no sense at all. the latter ? yes, she believes she can and is too stubborn to think otherwise. but she also believes there’s already a plan in place from the moment you're born. because that’s just destiny, but also that you can. ( which is her taking the logical route ) so ultimately yes !

“ relationships are very important to me, and it matters having people you can talk to and trust. but it’s been tough and i don’t really have my family anymore.. i’ve never had a romantic relationship or significant other, nobody has ever liked me that way before.”

“ my sisters are the most important relationship to me. there’s no deeper bond than sisterhood. and my friends of course. i’d do anything for them. if you’re one of the closest people to me, i’d do anything for you -- that’s just how i am. and i don’t really do significant others. hookups ? flings ? yeah. but no relationship has ever stuck or lasted for me. so i guess i just don’t want to do that and be hurt again.”
