Where: Along the canal east of the Palace of Juno When: Around sunset Who: Cal & @wintersaurora

Cal didn’t need exercise to maintain his stunning physique since his mortal death had frozen him in physical perfection forever. When he did exercise, he preferred the activities to be carnal in nature, preferably with multiple partners. Sometimes, however, it was necessary to just take a walk and mull over one’s thoughts and that’s what Cal found himself doing this evening. He’d left the Palace of Juno, crossed the bridge leading east towards the forum, but stayed near the water as it looked rather pretty with the sun sinking below the horizon. He wasn’t alone, it was hard to be on the busy streets of Rome, but he wasn’t as outwardly friendly and jovial as he usually was. He gave smiles and nods if people made eye contact but his thoughts were turned inward. 

He’d recently found out that the Eladrin Winter Chancellor was in town, mostly because he kept tabs on things like that and his network tended to give him reports on when important people came onto the scene. They didn’t know, of course, of Cal’s rather more personal connection to her and that it had been...well, about a century and a half since he’d last seen her. That last time had been far from pleasant and thinking about it, remembering it with a startling clarity that the intervening time hadn’t apparently managed to fog, made him set his jaw. It was somewhat of a quandary. He would most likely have to speak to her in an official capacity at some point. as a senator, but couldn’t at all pin down his feelings about that. On the one hand, he remembered the jagged shards she’d crushed his heart into, could still feel the echoes of that pain and was bitter and resentful about it. On the other hand, over a century without seeing her face was...too long by far and on those nights when he allowed himself to...he missed her. She was both the source of one of his worst memories and some of his best and when she wasn’t around he didn’t have to decide how to feel about it since he just tried not to think about it, or her, much at all. Now, he was going to have to and rather quickly. 

Rather more quickly than he’d anticipated, apparently, as a still familiar scent suddenly struck the air. It was the height of summer yet the scent carried the crispness of snow and pine needles wrapped in that always alluring nectar that was Eladrin blood. Cal was still near the river but lost in his thoughts he’d wandered a little further into the city and, apparently, close to her. Before he could really think it through, he followed the scent, moving through the crowd...and then he saw her. For just a moment, he drank in the sight of her, knowing she’d sense or notice him at any moment but wanting to steal a covert second or two just to take her in. She had always been breathtaking and she still was, of course, immortals didn’t change. There were subtle differences, however, in the set of her mouth and the look in her eyes. Not allowing himself to stand idle for too long, entirely still undecided on how he felt, he inwardly steeled himself and approached. 

“Good evening, Your Excellency. I’d heard you were in town and had intended to find you sooner rather than later.” Forma, basically friendly,l and unfailingly polite. Maybe if he clung to that he could survive this interaction with his dignity in tact. “I trust you’re well?” An entirely normal question he would’ve asked to any colleague or professional delivered, admirably, in an entirely normal tone. He hoped he could keep it up.

Jafar and Aurora - The Sleeping Serpent

Jafar walked across the long, polished floors of his palace in Agrabah. Taking a few long strides over to the edge, he looked down at the villagers. He sneered at the thought of them. "Filthy vermin..." he muttered lowly to himself. 

A knock at the door startled Jafar and he spun around quickly. "What is it? What do you want?!" he spoke quickly and sharply at the unknown disturbance. A voice came through the door, "Jafar, you have a visitor". He furrowed his brow and spoke slowly, "let him in."

His eyebrows raised at the sight of the stranger. It wasn't a him at all, it was a beautiful young woman. Regaining his composure, he stood up straight and looked down at her.

"What do you want?"

everythings-sowonderful replied to your post: “Phillip? N-no no. Leave him alone. He had every right to do what he did…. Please leave him alone.”

“He did. The only reason he came to your castle was to wake me from the curse you laid upon. If he would have stayed as a prisoner, he would have been killed.”

"No. I told him that I would release him. I never said that I would kill him in the first place." Maleficent said. And she was saying the truth.

Stargazing || Aurora & Dirk

Dirk looked around the Hufflepuff common room. There were so many people in there but still he felt alone, as he had done pretty much constantly since Halloween. He didn't quite understand his feelings. He'd gotten on with Sansa, sure. But it wasn't like they'd been best friends or anything. She was just someone he talked to in the common room. But suddenly without her there it seemed a little colder. Maybe it was the lower mood in Hufflepuff tower recently anyway. Maybe it was the tension ever since the Slytherins had moved in. Whatever it was though, he needed to get out of there fast. He didn't even bother saying anything to Dung about where he was going before he got up and left the room. He walked through the corridors without a particular destination in mind, simply glad that he didn't pass anybody else on the way.

He soon found himself wandering out onto the grounds, enjoying the dark that came with the early November dusk and headed down the long grass to put more distance between him and the school. He checked for any Aurors, and on confirming that there weren't any around, he pulled a cigarette out of the packet in his pocket and lit it with his wand. He wouldn't usually smoke alone, as it was something he'd always done socially, but today he just needed something to calm himself down and he hadn't touched any cigarettes since Tuesday so the cravings had started to get the better of him. He carried on walking, until he saw someone nearby. He held the cigarette behind his back, about to drop it on the floor when he realised it was another student. He considered walking away, but curiosity over who else might be alone these days got the better of him and he headed over.
