—- I’m the queen of this town,
I call the shots,
you know who I am.
With outstretched arms, I reach higher and higher. Between the shadows, splinters of light glisten just out of my grasp morphing into thousands of fireflies caught in a tornado.
I kick and claw my way up, through layers of dirt, roots, grasses, tree trunks, branches, twigs, leaves.
Then—nothing but air.
The wind blows through my hair as I throw my head back and blink in the sudden brightness.
The full moon illuminates the land, and I’m filled with reverence and warmth.

accidentxlacapella:
Ruby had clearly been avoiding her, there was no denying that and while Beca wasn´t really big on feelings she did care about the other girl and not seeing her as much as she usually did, or not talking to her, even if it was just about pointless things, left a bad taste in her mouth. She had been looking for her roommate all over campus, something she had never done before. Not… looking for Ruby across the campus, but running after someone. Beca was not the type to do that, but here she was. A sigh escaped her lips as she opened the door to her room and, to her surprise, found Ruby sitting on her bed. For a moment Beca wasn´t sure just what to say, but she eventually closed the door and leaned against it, clearing her throat.
“ Hey. “
She didn’t want to ruin this; their friendship, b ut she knew, in the long run, it would. Ruby had to sit there and think for a while. Ponder on what she wanted to do. Running was the top of her list, but Granny would kill her when she returned home if she hadn’t at least graduated college, especially after all the money and time they had put into this. Right now Ruby was just torn. When she looked up at the sound of Beca’s voice, she jumped just a little out of surprise, and then offered her a slight smile. Great, way to make her day a little worse.
❝ Sorry... I’ll get out of your way so you can study. ❞
multimusarum:
She can see them already, the walls her friend instantly begins to rebuild around herself. Not that Belle holds it against her; she imagines that for Ruby, it must be almost second nature by now - after all, it’s a habit both Ruby Lucas and Red share, giving it more than THIRTY YEARS to form. But still, it’s worrisome. She had told herself she wouldn’t pry today, but that doesn’t mean she is okay with Ruby holding everything in, either.
❝ Maybe you’re right. But you know you don’t HAVE to be okay right now, or any time– - I won’t think any less of you if you’re ever not. ❞
❝ It makes things easier. ❞
Red confesses, her shoulder shrugging. Maybe it’s good to let a wall or two stay down, if only to comfort Belle at this moment in time. She wouldn’t go into the details, though. Ruby dares not elaborate on the fact these are things she can’t live with every day. Not just Peter, but all of those innocent men she has brutally murdered. Many hunting parties sent to kill her. The soldiers Regina had sent after Snow. There are so many bloody deaths to her name, and, even if people justify it as the wolf, it is not helpful. She is the wolf. It’s actions are her’s in effect.
roseofvalor:
“ oh “ She smiled a little and bit her lip a little as she placed a strain of her hair back behind her ear. “I should have some, but the books from this world about…well your kind are very different from the truth. But I do have some books in the back from my library back home, if you promise to be careful I can let you lend a few of them” She smiled and gestured to her to follow her to the door in the back, showing her a large room full of old books from her library in the dark castle. “Werewolves are in the back, take you time”
She’s almost instantly embarrassed that Belle can read her just like that, and the waitress is more than ready to bat away the idea that that was what she was looking for, but what would be the point? Her curiosity has grown over the years, and it has lead her head. Red tries not to let the pang of home- sickness settle into her body, even though it has been lingering there for quite some time now. She doesn’t fit in here, and it’s because she lacks her own kind. Ruby, instead, forces a smile, and gives a nod of her head, she follows Belle’s direction through the library to the room filled with books, a short chuckle leaving her lips.
❝ Why am I not surprised that you have a second room full of books, too? One library wasn’t enough, I take it? ❞
Red tries to joke lightly, to take the awkwardness off of herself. Even as her green orbs scan the room with a slight hopefulness. Maybe this holds all of her answers...
unexpectedhappyendings:
❝ Me too, just not many. ❞
Snow slowly walks down the sidewalk and glances over at Red every now and then as they make their way to the car. She doesn´t want to fight, not today of all days, but there´s nothing she can do about the way she feels. It´s not until Red speaks up once more that her face lights up and she somewhat smiles. Of course it´s nothing but a promise, one that can be broken easily when Red decides to just not text her, but Snow takes what she can get.
❝ We´ll be awake. ❞
Red’s sure, if she gets to closing time and she hasn’t texted them, that Snow would be more than willing to march on down to the diner and pull her out by her ear. She chews faintly on her lip, freeing her car keys from her pocket. The bright red car ahead of them letting out a beep of it unlocking.
❝ Sounds like a plan, then. ❞
Camping Trips

He rolled his shoulders a small smile crossing his sleepy face. Thankfully the shop agreed for Cerberus to barrow the Jeep to haul things out to the cabin. He was already mentally checking of the foods they would need to get, water, where the fishing gear was. The wolf’s mind was already kicking into high gear as to what was needing to be done.
❝ Make sure to pack at least two weeks worth of clothin’. I will go over ya list in a second after I get a snack. ❞
For a moment Red’s eyes form a sort of playful glare in her husbands direction. Of all things clothes wasn’t one she was forgetting, she was already sorting out the washing and packing the pups bags; over packing even, knowing that the three of them would get messy day in and day out, and need more than they even thought possible. She turned and made up two mugs of coffee, offering one to Cer when she turned back around.
❝ Clothes are packed. Don’t worry. ❞
"RUBY."
@thedaughterofslumber
She looks up at the sudden voice, before blinkingaway a slight stare. A smile forming over her face.
❝ Hi to you too, Artemis. ❞
unbxrnt:
All she saw was red before impact. Whoever hit her must’ve been in a hurry and it set her guards on edge. But a small hand gesture and they backed off, Daenerys bending down and helping the poor woman. ❝It’s no trouble. No one got hurt.❞ The queen manages a smile, her hand holding out to help the red-caped woman to stand. ❝Are you late for something? You were running as if there were hounds at your heels.❞
She’s flustered to say the least, her cheeks the same red as her cloak, chest heaving while she tries her hardest to catch her breath. The she-wolf had just panicked all of a sudden, and so she had bolted from the security she once knew in the little town. Wolfstime was creeping closer, and she knew she had to flee for a few days in order for everyones safety. She gulped, and clutched her basket tighter. Trying to seem like she wasn’t fleeing from something then and there, though she wasn’t doing a good job of it.
❝ Um... No, I’m not. I’m just... I was on my way to see my Granny. I must get there before nightfall, you see. ❞
chippedbravery:
Belle tries her best to stay focused on Red, she just doesn´t want to slip back into the darkness she had surrounded her for what had seemed an eternity. She let´s out an audible sigh then and licked her still dry lips. The pain was bearable, but it was still hard to stay awake and not give into the approaching sleep.
❝ Of course I worry about you. You need to sleep too, Red. ❞
That was definitely something Red knew Belle didn’t need to worry about. After all, she would sleep when she got the chance. For now there’s still adrenaline and feral instinct running through her veins keeping her awake. Red sighs, and shifts, before she gulps, and informs Belle of the oh so uncomfortable situation a day or so ago now.
❝ So, Gold stopped by. Obviously. ❞
southerncomfortoutlaw:
That was the point of people like him being on the island those few that were either brave or stupid enough to walk out with only a stun gun to protect them. He would prefer the real thing compared to a toy. Twenty years since Jurassic Park and now they were repeating the same mistakes.
❝ I’m usually one step a head, got to be on my toes right, darlin’?. ❞
She scoffed rather loudly. All un-lady-like and impolite, but it was terribly amusing to hear him thinking that he was one step ahead of these animals. That was what they wanted him to think, at least. Ruby tried to remove her smile by swiping some hair away from her face, side stepping him so as to exit the viewing area of the enclosure.
❝ Sure you are~ ❞
accidentxlacapella:
Now she doesn´t only have to deal with Ruby being on top of her, no, now Ruby´s also slipping out of her shorts and while that isn´t the first time Beca has seen her like this she has to stop and remind herself to look away. I should really be sleeping. She thought to herself as she watched the other woman flop onto her bed.
“ Are you going to be okay over there?”
She eventually asked into the darkness, looking over at Ruby once more now that she was on the bed and her panties were practically out of sight for Beca.
The audible snort is clear from across the room, even though Ruby now has rolled over so her back is to Beca. She needs to sleep this off, and she’s very well aware of that. The brunette does not respond, figuring that Beca may take her to have fallen asleep, though she’s anything but, her mind is still a cluster of thoughts and flirts for the other woman.
southerncomfortoutlaw:
Jal watches a bit closer now, the way the smile fades for even just a second. It had a bit of a familiar recognition in it for him. Outside would be the best thing for the she-wolf, these woods after all made him take refuge in them when he need to go for a run or clear the ever growing fear inside him out. Reaching his hand out the wolf had offered a warm smile, guiding the she-wolf towards the entrance. Glancing over his shoulder a second towards his alpha and with a nod, Jal lead the daughter of the Alpha outside. Quietness blanked the area, only the sounds of birds in the trees dared to echo back to them.
❝ It is overwhelming to be somewhere you’re not use too. ❞
His dark eyes moved over the cloak, Anita would make her remove it soon enough. The scent of magic wafted from the very fibers of that red dyed fabric. The blond was familiar with that scent for past experiences. The North wind picked up, bring a new fall of light snowflakes tumbling towards the dust covered ground. Winter had surly come early this year. That would making hunting a bit more difficult. She was quite beautiful, any wolf or human could have seen this. In the outside light Anita’s features could be picked out, those green hues one of those features. He was staring, quickly Jal looked away, walking towards a path in the forest.
❝ I can take you to a quite spot away from the den to think. ❞
Red carefully pulls her eyes off of Anita, looking to where Jal’s hand was gesturing, the very way Quinn had brought her in, she took delicate steps back towards the entrance, more than happy to have a little freedom in her actions then and there. Her cloak is still hugged around her; a comfort blanket of sorts. It doesn’t matter about the magic contained within there, it’s just a part of her now. She wouldn’t be who she was today without that cloak, and so Red will be very difficult to part with such an item.
She takes a very deep breath when she is out in the open woodlands once more, savouring the scent of pine, and the sounds of creeping animals behind bushes and trees. Red closes her eyes and just focuses on that for a moment, clearing away all thoughts in her mind. When she opens those green orbs at last, she is a little less so hugged into her cloak now, comforted by the woods instead.
❝ So... my mother... how did you come to be with her? ❞
❛Amateur. Lie down before you hurt yourself.❜

She snarls for just a moment, and glares at the woman for a whilelonger. Zelena probably had a point, but Ruby Lucas is stubbornand won’t admit to that. She sits up more, still keeping her glarein place as she did so. Oh, if looks could kill.
❝ And since when exactly did you begin to care? ❞
