rolling oranges;

LOCATION: the wharf, kitley village TIME & DATE: 23rd february, late afternoon CLOSED STARTER: @simone-montgomery

The day had been busy and if anything Conrad was just happy to get home, his hands and brain no longer needed anymore at the garage, just some cleaning to be done that Dusty had taken the responsibility of cleaning, noticing just how tired his men were. Another thing he was grateful for was the small bathroom they had at the garage, it was always kept clean and very useful in days like this, even if Conrad preferred the comfort of his own place, sometimes the grease and the dirt became too much to handle and could not wait the route home.

His hair was still a bit wet and his face flushed from the commute home but at least he felt better, more fresh and with clean clothes on his body, his only thought was what he was going to cook for dinner when two oranges started tumbling down the stairs. A confused expression took over his face just as he crouched down to catch them before he raised his hands and noticed a woman on top of the stairs.

"Conrad, honey - I'm so sorry, the elevator isn't working and this bag just ripped -" she hurried to explain, but Conrad just smiled at her, he knew the woman even before he moved in, she has been one of his sister's teachers and he had remembered her always being nice to him.

"That's okay, Nora, just let me help that looks heavy" even with all the protest coming from her, he lifted everything with ease, making sure not to let anything fall as he climbed the last flight of stairs, only startled from a small moment just as he got to her door, noticing another woman standing there - someone who he would soon learn was her daughter.

"Oh - hey, I'm just helping out"

SHE NEVER GAVE MUCH ATTENTION TO HER DREAMS. After all, they’re merely dreams, extensions of the subconscious mind. However, she’s been having odd dreams for a few months now - odd and confusing and she finds herself unable to make sense of them. Sometimes she sees places she’s not really familiar with, or places she knows but hasn’t been to, sometimes she sees people she knows, other times total strangers. With that, she finds herself walking into Durand Books, a bookshop not too far from where she lives and walking up to the first person she sees. “Oh, hello! Can you help me, please?” she begins. “I’m looking for a book about dreams? You know something which explains them and all that! I actually looked up online, too, but there’s a multitude of sources and I wasn’t sure which is accurate and to be trusted, so I figured my best bet at finding a trusted source is coming here!” She lets out a breath when she finishes rambling, and smiles.

IT’S NOT THAT SABINA’S NOT HAPPY WITH THAT SHE IS, because she is. It’s helped her too many times in getting what she wants. But at the same time, she’d be lying if she said she wasn’t struggling with controlling her powers and figuring herself out, and sometimes, yes, she wonders if there’s a reverse button to all of it. She’s heard of Simone Durand, the Noctis coven head, it’s why she’s now setting foot into her bookstore, to see if the witch has some information that can guide her. “Hello, Simone Durand?” Better make sure before she gets into it.

dean — very mysterious, this one. i still haven’t gotten close enough to truly understand what he’s all about. that’ll change, trust me. val — honestly that girl is so cute to me. i mean not only does she have the whole innocent thing going for her, but she’s actually not that innocent at all and i’m here for it. margo — BABE. fashion icon. goddess. she serves the whole campus looks on a daily and doesn’t even get paid to do so. do y’all understand she really doesn’t have to go that hard for us?? simone — i don’t know her well enough to judge her and unlike some assholes at this school, i don’t base my knowledge on hearsay. love her name though. jagger — gag me.

"Finished!" Billie called out, wiping her hands on a damp rag as she wandered into the kitchen. "You need to tell me when the car starts making an odd noise next time, okay? Please." Her tone and expression instantly softened as she laid eyes on her mother. She pushed the back of her wrist across her forehead, knocking her cap askew. "And I'm sorry the reason I came over was for the car rather than just... coming to see you. Did you have a good day, mum?"

setting: somewhere at the event yk, with @simone-montgomery

“At last…” Rafael appears with a gracious smile, as if he’d been waiting for her. “We finally meet again. Simone,” he says, like it’s an ordinary name he’d taken the time to remember, and offers his hand. Nearby, there’s a man with a camera, waiting for the perfect moment. “Thank you for coming. How far you’ve come.”

“DURAND, good to see you tonight. Fine night, no?” His latter phrase is expressed with obvious sarcasm, while the former is pretty neutral and on brand for James. He downs the remains of his drink only seconds later. In events like these, he’s always grateful for the booze. “Want me to get you a drink?”

    “thanks for doing this , by the way ,” aubrey spoke with the upmost gratitude . the wannabe-photographer stood fiddling with the lighting in the middle of the studio booked for their impromptu shoot . “normally i just get one of my friends to pose for me or capture nature shots . it’s not everyday that i get to work with a professional model .” it was both nerve wracking and exciting learning experiencing . “how’s the costume working out for you ? need me to make any adjustments before we start ?”
