The setting isn’t overly unfamiliar, which in itself, is concerning. Last he checked, he had died in 1918, only to gasp back to life in 2019. The city now looks much more like the world he had grown up in. All these sudden changes are a lot to take in and he moves about the city distractedly, still hoping there is an exit somewhere. Eventually, he gives up, settling down on a bench next to somebody toying around with a camera. “Cameras can be tricky,” he says, trying to be friendly. “I’m no expert, but...if you wanted a second opinion...” Steve allows the offer to hang there.

He hunches over the book in his hands, various other stacks surrounding him on the tabletop, before angrily casting it aside. Even while frustrated, Beckett could never harm a book...but he almost has the urge. “What are these books? Not a single helpful word in any of them.” Beckett has never gone looking for answers in a library and come up short. Plus the lighting in this one is just awful. He rakes a shaky hand through his hair. “I should have...I can’t believe I left all of my own books at school. This is all my fault.”

Star has dealt with her fair share of wand malfunctions, but this is next level. If at all possible, she would have grabbed her dimensional scissors and hightailed it out of there already. As much as she always insisted on her independence as a child, she hates being alone. She just wants to see Marco and Pony Head again. With age and experience, Star is much (well. maybe not much) more patient than she once was. But this is...extra super annoying! Angrily, Star waves her wand around with all her strength, letting out a squeal of surprise when a rogue baby unicorn bursts out and hurtles down the street. “Watch out!” She yells at the only person in danger of being smacked in the face.

This situation is...well, there’s truly nothing she could have done to prepare for it. But Lara Jean is resourceful, and she plans to make the best of it. Her solution to this new life is to secure a job at a local bakery, hoping that some extra pocket change and the ability to bake her stress away might lessen her nerves. She stands behind the cash register, which looks like something that belongs in a history museum, and accepts the cash. Unsure, she starts pressing buttons, already forgetting exactly how to work the thing. “Um...just one moment!” Lara Jean leans in closer to the machine, brows furrowing in concentration. “How hard could it be, right?” She mutters under her breath.

❝ Just remember if we get caught, you’re deaf and I don’t speak English. ❞ sabrina & emmett

     “ i’ll have you know i’m one of the greatest actors of all time. hollywood would kill for me. in fact, pretending to be deaf is one of my specialties, ” which was usually when emmett wanted to do something that carlisle, esme, AND rosalie already voiced their disapproval upon. there was a roguish smirk soon tugging at the corners of his lips, and a mischievous glint to his dark golden eyes as he rubbed his hands together out of sheer excitement. “ now ... show me some badass witchcraft magic to hypnotize things, like animals. i’m taking a page out of the pied pipers’ book. ”

❝ Your tie is crooked. ❞ esme & emmett

     “ —uh, yeah. it is, isn’t it? ” a chuckle sounded from the brunet, pathetically lifting the tie between a pinched finger and thumb before pulling it undone altogether. attempting to tie a windsor knot with the slippery silk fabric had never been one of emmett’s strengths. one would think that through his century living amidst all the fashion trends, he would have learned how to properly tie his own tie. however, he’d taken complete advantage of allowing rosalie and esme to spoil him with the removal of such tedious tasks, without much thought to where that would leave him if there was ever a time they weren’t around to help. fortunately, the motherly figure of their family had been the one to catch him rather than either of his brothers, who he was most certain would collectively tease him to no end. “ couldn’t find rose, so i TRIED to do it myself, ” emmett spoke through a sheepish smile, darkened gold hues dropping momentarily before lifting once again to refocus on esme. “ could you— would you fix it for me? my hands are too big to get all up in there, or i’d be a wiz at this by now. and, just between you and me, i really don’t want old man edward to try to give me a play by play again. ”
