             niko  sits  on  the  porch’s  railing,  lithe  legs  hanging  over  the  edge  as  she  watches  the  night  sky.   there’s  soft  music  pouring  from  her  open  window,   well  loved  journal  discarded  on  thigh  filled  to  the  brim  with  notes  for  her  class   &   for  the  first  time  in  awhile  she  seems  at  peace  to  simply  exist.

            that  is,   up  until  she  hears  a  noise  all  too  close  &  promptly  goes  plummeting  over  the  side.   to  her  credit,   she  lands  on  her  feet   (   not  that  it’s  a  far  drop  by  any  means,    but  human  niko  surely  would’ve  fallen  on  her  ass.   )   a  bubbling  laugh  fills  her  chest,     “    okay,    admittedly,    not  my  finest  moment   !     “

she was bigger than this town. blair had always known that, from the moment she was old enough to know her power. everything about the blonde was beautiful, bold, and bright, and everything about this town felt starkly the opposite. perhaps the only habit of hers that fit was something she’d picked up in los angeles — smoking. as she made her way home from work, she picked one out of her typical, expensive purse, lighting it and enjoying the sound of her heels resonating through the quiet evening. the sun just setting, blair took a seat on a bench, checking her phone as she felt someone’s eyes on her after a few minutes, “take a picture, darling, it’ll last longer.”

          FIVE HUNDERED YEARS  had passed and yet he still felt the exact same, albeit a little hungry. of course the vast difference in culture was shocking all on it’s own, how far humanity had stretched with ease during his indefinite slumber. instead of setting off on an absolute rampage, as he was sure at least one of siblings had done, sveinn chose to somberly collect his thoughts at the edge of briar creek’s preserve. it was only a matter of time, however, until his isolation was interrupted.

          “ if you’re trying to be quiet, it’s a fruitless attempt. ”  he finally uttered, low voice breaking through the otherwise peaceful silence blanketing the forest. blue eyes darted along the trees before coming to an abrupt halt, pinpointing his intruder.  “ not to mention your scent carries from a mile away. ”

       waking from a five hundred year slumber had certainly been a shock. the cultural advancements seemed otherworldly; they were fascinating and incredibly impressive —— something sonnjea would  never  openly fawn over or admit, of course. however, despite the confusion of it all, the blonde needed little time to play catch up, and was blending in with this  briar creek  civilization without any trouble as she sauntered through the town under the moonlight. sensing the others’ presence long before icy blue hues fixed on their silhouette, rosy lips twitched slightly before the corners adjusted to form a roguish smirk.  “ a little late to be out all alone, isn’t it? ”

andromeda had spent the entirety of her day locked up within her office again, it seemed to be a rather bad habit she’d acquired, really.  “  i don’t believe i was expecting company,  ”  her words coming out slowly, making a mental note of the approaching footsteps long ago.  if they were trying to be sneaky, they weren’t good at it in the slightest.  “  tell me  --  what brings you here, darling?  ”  finally the original’s eyes focused in the other, allowing herself to add the paper she’d been examining into a pile of other papers that flooded her desk.
