The studio was nice, small and quaint but Giovanni appreciated the aesthetic that the venue provided. It had been years since the vampire had taken any lessons but Volkan’s reappearance had prompted the man to want to brush up on some steps for their inevitable wedding. The kobalos would have to propose soon if they were going to have enough time to plan the Summer wedding that Gio secretly wanted. They hadn’t discussed it, but the vampire had no intention of being someone’s boyfriend forever He’d already picked a date and knew exactly what he was going to wear. “Hey - Levi, right?” The vampire asked as he approached the desk, “I called ahead about some ballroom lessons?”

The Delphi had been the once-oracle’s home for over three years, he found a mother-like figure in Anastasia, and familial connections among her children. Though he was never truly one of them, in another life Atlas would have liked to think that he belonged there, that he could have remained among the Delphi forever but his destiny lay elsewhere. That did not mean that Atlas did not worry for them, and care for them, he’d vowed many times over that the coven would always be under his protection but now an evil hung over the Vidalis estate and the Erinyes forbid him from interfering. 

Hektor was under the roof that he’d called a second home and Atlas could do nothing against him, still, there was one that Atlas wanted to seek out. The boy who’d returned home after being gone for so long: Levi. At a glance the trained dancer appeared healthier than the others and idly the fury understood that it was due to the proximity of where the others were to home. Levi lived apart from the estate, but he was still infected and would slowly decay as a result. 

“Levi-” Atlas smiled, he recognized the witch from photographs he’d been shown around the estate, the room that the witch had called his own. “Atlas.” the fury offered, immediately he could feel that there was something off about this one - more so even than the others. Levi had been wronged, badly, and something dark twisted in Atlas’s gut as he struggled to discern what that was exactly. A crime so horrific that went on for so long that he could hardly find a name for it, but just the same, Atlas would recognize this stain anywhere. The fury wavered for a moment before he regained his focus, “Sorry, um-” he shook his head and then composed himself, “it’s just hard to believe this is our first time meeting.”

Word had gotten back to him that there was a creature in the forest that was suffering, one that needed his help. One of his ravens had whispered the news in his ear as Markus had sat at the breakfast table, so into the woods the witch had taken as he sought out an animal that had been badly wounded by a group of hunters. It was midday by the time he was far enough away from the city that the noise from the traffic had faded, the sun was high and the forest thick with a humid haze that left him feeling almost sick. Guided by the small critters that called the forest home, the bear in question had kept moving while injured and was far deeper than he had anticipated. Another presence cut through the presence of the animals that came seeking his magic, a woman, but no hunter as far as he could tell. For instance, she was unarmed. “You-” Markus said, his tone clean-cut and straight-forward. “a bear came this way not long ago, do you know which way it went?”

Diodoros had opted to sleep in his old room the night the veil fell, and he’d called into work the following day. Family emergency, was the excuse that he had used, but it was only a short delay until he officially put in for the LOA that he was going to take until their mother was awake again. Until then, he was going to look after her and make sure that she was strong enough to help repair the veil. Diodoros had no indeed what magic would be needed, or how they would access it, but the only way he could manage to deal with the fact that he had just Rion for a second time, was to busy himself with finding a way to bring his lover back. This was not the end, he refused, and no matter what anyone told him, he would never accept it. 

He could not help but replay the conversation he’d had with his mother over and over again. ‘Your memories shape you, help you become who you are. Without them, how will you know what is right and wrong?’ He had felt her every moment of his life, in the breeze, in the air, in the fire that burned within him. It was gone now, and still Diodoros felt his mother’s presence, maybe he was not birthed from her womb, but every bit of him knew that he was always meant to be hers, and he would do whatever it took to hear her voice once again. ‘This town is cursed. We’re all cursed.’ If that was true, then Diodoros would break that curse.

His mind was in a million places as he stood in front of the stove, eyes blank as he stared at the wall. Diodoros sniffed once, then twice, what’s burning? He asked himself before he suddenly remembered what he was doing. “Fuck.” The ex-witch uttered under his breath as he pulled the pancakes from the pan at least twenty second too late. He turned sheepishly towards the pair of siblings sat at the breakfast table, Levi and Ava, Diodoros had insisted on making breakfast, and he’d royally fucked that up already. “Um, who likes burnt pancakes?”

It was weird spending the night in the estate again, enchantments kept the place warm, made sure it wasn’t drafty. The home was meticulously maintained, but still, when the sun set and the lights went out it was eerie. Much too big. It was warded against spirits, but still, Diodoros could not help but wonder how many long passed Delphi witches wandered these halls. Dio and Levi were camped out in the living room, a spread of junk food in front of them as a blanket fort was setup around them. Diodoros held a flash light under his chin so the light created long spooky shadows over his face, scary stories were the best part of sleepovers, at least as far as Dio was concerned. “-And then, when they turned around, hanging from the door knob, there was nothing but a rusty hook.” Diodoros pulled a hook out from under his blanket as if it was his hand, a loud clap of thunder boomed overhead as if to punctuate the scary climax of his story.

Dio was glad to have him back, he never wanted Levi to go in the first place, but, he understood why his young brother had needed to go. The truth was that Diodoros understood all too well what it meant to want to try and find yourself outside of the Vidalis name, but for Dio, Corinth was always going to be his home. He had school, then work, and now responsibilities to the Delphi that he could never just walk away from. Corinth was the city where he had been born, where he had been raised, it was where he fell in love, and it was where he lost that love as well. Leaving just felt impossible. 

The estate was as he remembered it, every turn, every hall, and their room was still kept for them. Diodoros had asked Levi to meet him here for nostalgia sake, the witch wanted to talk to their mother about the night of the masquerade, ease her mind if he could, but for now he wished to see where the other’s head was at on the matter. “I’ve never seen her hold that much power at once,” Diodoros remarked, Levi had been back for six months now, but he had been gone for a long time before that. It was obvious to anyone who knew Anastasia that she had changed, first the veil, then Katerina. Dio was worried. “I’m worried.”

Phillip was just making his way out of the library, furiously blinking away the sunlight, when he just barely missed bumping into a blurry figure passing his way. His eyesight was still adjusting as he raised a meek hand in greeting. “ Hey there, ”  he stumbled out,  “ That was my bad, I wasn’t watching where I was going. I’ll just-- Oh. ” Finally free to see clearly, Phillip was caught off guard by the remarkably beautiful woman he could have sworn he’d never once seen on the island.  “ Oh, sorry. I, uh, don’t think we’ve met. I’m Phillip. Nice to meet you? ”
