discord rp stuff featuring @discipulusmaleficus and @desertfragments

[needleandstory]

you'd be better off staying here. do you really have to go? irokai

Iroksa stands on the balcony of Kai's apartment, looking out at the brilliant orange and pinks splashed across the city skyline. Little streetlight pinpricks burst to life in the blue-black darkness of streets and alleyways, and they lean their jaw in their hand. Soon, Her darkness will overtake the city for the span of a night, bringing it to its most beautiful.

They glance at Kai, smiling. "You know I must. My people are awaiting my brilliance, after all, and I cannot deprive them forever. Besides, I miss my mountaintops dearly. It will be a breath of fresh air to be among people who understand my faith."

"My only regret is that you won't be coming as well."

@desertfragments - from here

"Didn't you?" He gives his habitual sharp, unfriendly grin, head tilting a fraction to one side.

What Deka's saying isn't true, for one. Kalmar's about as romantically interesting as a spot of mould on the wall. And it's hard to say if he's being manipulative or mocking or just plain tasteless, but every time the man implies otherwise, his awareness of that fact pokes at him like a rock in his shoe.

Worse, despite this, the ingenuous enthusiasm in his voice is getting dangerously close to legitimately flustering him. Pretending it hasn't already.

A little smirk twitches at the edge of his lips at Deka's question. Sleekly, he closes a little of the distance between them, one hand slipping around his shoulder to settle by the base of his neck.

This hand happens to contain a hunting knife.

"Down the chest, I'd say. So I can see your face."

hc ask: keerin, bc im self indulgent and wanna know ur thoughts but also annalise

Headcanon A:  realistic

Keerin: they still secretly enjoy presenting masc, but their enjoyment of it has been completely tainted by familial expectation to the point they've convinced themself it's not for them.

Annalise: when she heard the Lost Capulets for the first time, she knew she had to see them in person. the crosscountry drive to the city they play in is one she could have, if she tried, done in a few days. but she allotted weeks for it, solely so she could stop and visit all the roadside attractions she never got the chance to see when she was a kid on the road with her dad.

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious

Keerin: ankle fetish

Annalise: in elementary, a chicken hid in her backpack and came to school with her and followed her around all day. she was so popular, everyone was amazed at how well 'trained' it was.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends

Keerin: a long time ago, you told me about how keerin had an eating disorder during their teen model phase, but they'd managed to recover. for a while there, they were doing really well, connecting and baking and being involved in their community. they were recovering while kai was getting worse. but now that they're with their grandma and her strict diets, theyre gonna relapse. as kai's getting healthier, keerin's getting thinner.

Annalise: in spite of how incredibly close they were as kids, her dad barely knows who she is anymore. he doesn't know about the angel stuff. he doesn't know about the smoking, or drinking, or depression. it's not that he hates her or has been ignoring her, he just... hasn't been home enough to see it. she didnt tell him when she left for her road trip. every time he calls, she lies, having made up an entire fake college schedule to feed him, just so he doesn't get worried or feel disappointed in her.

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.

Keerin: wore the POOFIEST dress to prom. hated it so much theure never ever gonna wear a poofy dress ever again.

Annalise: shes schrodinger's trans rn. she has some powerful trans vibes but i cant figure out how to make it work with her story.

Send 👂 to overhear my muse talking about yours. (Jayrus) @desertfragments @scxrytxles

Jeremy’s voice drifted through the door, audible to anyone close enough to hear. “Did something happen between you and Alice?“

“No,“ Cyrus’s answer was sharp. “I barely know her.“

“Are you sure?“

“Yes. Nothing happened.“

“Alright, alright, I believe you. It’s just, I’ve noticed whenever she’s around, you tense up. Well, you get tenser than normal.“ His voice smiled, carrying the most mild of teasing.

But Cyrus didn’t sound amused. “It’s not about her.“

For a minute, their voices lapsed into silence. All that could be heard were Jeremy’s footfalls while he finished some task or another.

Eventually, Cyrus spoke again. “It’s Jay. She’s been my friend for a long time.“ He stopped, as if that explained everything.

Jeremy let Cyrus have a few moments of quit before he answered. “You know, I’ve seen you all hang out together. Jay’s been trying hard to include you both; she’s not going to replace you.“

Cyrus snorted derisively. “You’re such an optimist.“

“Cyrus... Xander hasn’t replaced me, even with all the girlfriends he’s had,“ Jeremy said, so solemnly it made Cyrus snort.

“Who would want to replace you?“

@desertfragments​ asked: “ look… it’s progress, yeah? you’re better than you were before. ” jay @mia

Mia is just going to give Jay the most dejected look that she can manage. Because she’s a teenager and in a mood today. “Yeah, sure, whatever you say.” Just going to angerly rub at her eyes, slumping slightly in on herself. “Sorry. I’know you’re just trying to be helpful.” And positive. Mia still had trouble remembering those things sometimes.

Deep breaths, it’s fine. She’s got this. Just ask the question. Jay would probably be able to pick up on the little bit of hope in her voice. Even if she wasn’t looking at Jay. “Y’really think my control is better now though?”
