nate knocked repeatedly on the door until augustus answered. ever since parker had left town without any warning nate had been in a funk. as much as he loved spending time with athena it wasn’t the same as having a guy friend he could just mess around and be stupid with. not that augustus really filled that void, but he was someone who wasn’t a girl to hang out with. so when he went into hiding or whatever it was he was doing nate had understandably gotten concerned. and after days of ignoring texts nate knew it was time to take matters into his own hands.

when augustus finally opened the door and he saw the look on his face nate immediately held up the bottle of whiskey as a peace offering. “i know you said you don’t want me here, but come on. you can’t just hide in your house forever, what the fuck is going on with you?” while there was a teasing tone to his words there was also genuine concern. though neither of the men would admit it they did care about the well-being of one another. “even if we just sit in silence and drink all night i think you need someone right now.”

finley was furious that someone could make charlie as uncomfortable as he was with the situation that went down at vermillion. after finally getting the full, or part of the full, story from him she knew what she had to do. finley was loyal beyond belief, almost to a fault sometimes, and she knew that this wasn’t something she could let go. charlie was the best friend she had ever had, and knowing someone upset him made her share that feeling with him. she had to confront this augustus person and give him a piece of her mind. she had to tell him to leave charlie alone and to not bother him ever again. her adrenaline was racing as she approached the parking lot of the west hollow times where she knew he worked, ready to tell him off.

she walked up to him and took a solid stance in front of him, crossing her arms across her chest as she gave him a death glare. “i don’t like the way things went down at vermillion,” she started, trying to make her voice as intimidating as possible. “you really upset charlie and that’s absolutely not okay with me. he’s my best friend and seeing him like this is fucking terrible and it’s your fault. so i don’t care what kind of history you two have together just leave him alone, alright?” she extended her claws for a brief moment, just long enough so he would see and hopefully know not to challenge her, though she was positive that if it came down to a battle of strength she would lose.

“I hurt people. It’s all I’m good at.”

Nova snorted at his sentiment, taking a drag of her joint. “Well, that is the main evolutionary advantage vampires have over humans.” She pointed out, voice soft. “You’re designed to hurt, Augustus. You’re all teeth and strength.” She rolled on the blanket, turning to face him “I don’t understand why you’re suddenly acting like that’s a bad thing.” Personally, Nova had always delighted in being designed to hurt- because demons were made that way too- but it was different, she supposed. She’d been born into this life, perhaps Augustus had been human at one time and he was giving voice to some vestige of conscience. “I recommend embracing the talents you’ve developed. No point dwelling on what could have been, especially at your age.”

“I guess I’ve just never been a trustworthy person.”

Dimitri’s brows furrowed at the other man’s words. He didn’t beleive it, not with the Augustus that he had seen. Perhaps another version of him —the one he saw peeking through the first time they had met, or when resentment stained his words when he spoke to Charlie… But the man who offered him comfort when he needed it and made him believe, if only for a moment, that this life was not a curse —he had to be trusted. Didn’t he? Dimitri, at least, would but his faith in the man. Even if he didn’t want it. 

      “I… don’t believe that.” 

He was the anxious one, the one on the brink of tears at any given moment, if only someone were there to give him a shove. Eternally uncertain and worried he had done the wrong thing, said the wrong thing, Dimitri was not used to offering comfort, himself. Unless it was to Mona. He wasn’t providing comfort here, though; that didn’t seem like something Augustus would want, nor something Dimtiri believed he needed nor would try to offer him. He was just being honest. 

      “I might be a child, or an idiot, or whatever you want to call me, but, um… I just don’t.”

♠ - … My muse on a bad day

Lindy stomped into her apartment, angrily tossing her keys into the bowl by the door. Today had just been the worst. It had just been one thing wrong after another today. She kicked off her shoes, taking satisfaction in how they clattered against the wall. “Why are people so rude? It’s like no one ever taught them any respect.” She muttered to herself and she stalked towards the kitchen, looking for something sweet to eat.

✰ - a drabble about my muse from the point of view of... my muse’s best friend.

“Sofia Santiago...” 

Alex shook her head in mock-disapproval, but her smile gave away her love of the girl. 

“I followed her here, you know. To West Hollow. God knows I would never have come to a town like this if it wasn’t for her. She’s got this crazy vision, right? Can’t tell you what it is, or she’d wring my throat, but uh...” 

Her smile faded a bit, but her eyes were alive with admiration. 

“I’d follow her to the ends of the earth, y’know? She’s impulsive as all hell, but she’s... She’s so fucking smart, and strong, and ---well, I could go on, but you get the point. She does the right thing, even when it’s the hard thing. She’d make a great leader.” 

It was clear that she was hinting at something ---at Sofia’s drive to become the Alpha of the West Hollow pack--- but she wouldn’t tell just anyone that much.

👤🎧🔮😴

👤 - If they could switch bodies or lives with any one person, who would it be?

      Anyone living. She’s not particularly picky, but she does think it would be interesting to switch bodies with a man.

🎧 - How would they react after hearing an unexplained sound while home alone?

      When she was alive, she would have likely ignored it, turned the TV or her music up louder, and hoped that it was nothing. Now that whatever it is can’t really hurt her ---and that she knows things that go bump in the night are real--- she’d go investigate.

🔮 - They have a premonition that something terrible will happen to them. How do they handle the situation?

      The only truly horrible thing that could happen to her at this point would be to never move on to the next world, or to nothingness, or whatever happens once her unfinished business gets finished. If she found out that this would happen, she’d do whatever it took to move on or destroy herself. She’s not sure it’s possible, but she couldn’t stand for it.

😴 - Would they ever choose to die in their sleep? Why or why not?

      Nope. She thinks that would be far too boring, and while it would certainly be peaceful, she’d like to have gone out doing something exciting ---but something that would have killed her quickly. A car accident, a fatal shooting... Anything that gets it over with quickly.
