“  would   you   relax ?  ”      disinterest   lays   flat   against   her   tongue.      she   didn’t   jump.   or   rush   to   dart   around   the   corner.   if   there’s   ONE   THING   she   knows…   the   faster   the   movement  ,     the   more   attention   they’re   going   to   draw.     instead  ,   mal’s   moves   are   slow.   the   straightening   of   her   back.   shoulders   tensing.   and   smirk   curling   fully   across   her   features.        it’s   a   practiced   effort   that   keeps   his   nervous   energy   from   contorting   her   own.      “  he   didn’t   even   see   us  ,  ”      she   adds.     just   before   letting   hand   fall   back   to   the   fruit   stand   at   her   side.      polished   nails   rake   over   each   of   the   apples.   picking   THE   MOST   BRUISED  ,     she   swipes   it   with   ease.   and   laughs   as   she   tosses   it   in   jay’s   direction.      “  come   on.   i’m   bored   anyway.  ”

@hethief​ said: And then Satan said “put the alphabet in math”.

“Numbers alone are evil.” Harry commented somewhat bitterly, shaking his head. Despite his age and the education provided by the Isle (or perhaps because of it), Harry didn’t know how to count or even to tell the time on the pocket watch he kept tucked away, so any mention of math tended to draw his ire. Why people thought such a complex subject needed to be made even more complicated by adding letters to it was beyond Harry and he rubbed his thumb along the point of his hook as he continued to scowl. “Whoever came up with math did a far more wicked thing than either of us have ever managed.”

@hethief​ said: No, you’re not as funny as me. Stop trying.

“Ah, what’s that I hear, Jay? Is it jealousy?” Harry said as he grinned, his spirits rising at the chance to get under someone’s skin. “You know, I would say that’s not a good look on you, but I think we both know that you’ll never be better looking than me no matter what you try.”

          “   can i help you ?   ”     she stays seated ,   reclined against the brick wall seemingly without a care .   exhaling a final puff of smoke from her lips ,   she presses the searing end of the cigarette butt into the pavement before flicking it into the middle of the alley .     “   nothing valuable for you here ,   i’m afraid .   ”

@hethief​​​  /   ▓ = caught stealing their belongings .

She’s cautious as she enters the shoppe that morning. The lock wasn’t on the door and she knew it had been locked. Uma’s already holding her sword in her hand, letting light footsteps carry her to the store room at the back. She’s thankful she has walked these floors so much that she knows where every creaking plank was, where divots in the wood might catch your footing, or a nail that stuck out a little too far but was so bent it was impossible to put back in place. Uma was a professional at avoiding them all with grace and poise. A threatening stance as she stands in the open doorway. She watches Jay for a moment, then lets out a deep chuckle. ❛ You’re not supposed to be here~ ❜ It’s in a taunting, sing-song way, something pointing to her having spent far too much time around Harry. She doesn’t move, just lets the sword glint in the light, tongue tracing a dangerous line over her teeth. The doorway is blocked. If he wanted to leave, he’d have to get through her first.

@hethief​  said  :   ‘ get some sleep , i’ll keep watch ‘

 tension  settles  into  muscles      —      already  wound  too  tightly  around  bones.  frame  held  together  by  nothing  more  than  spite.  she  will  not  fall.  and  she  WILL  NOT  lose.  whatever  game  the  gods  are  playing ,  she  won’t  be  their  pawn.  but  the  exhaustion  that  had  bleeds  from  her  aura  is  evident.  at  least  so  much  as  to  be  seen  by  careful ,  calculating  eyes.  maybe  the  only  pair  that  knows  her  well  enough  to  see  through  the  bullshit.  the  cracks  where  light  slips  in  and  dare  she  say  it...        she  feels  a  sense  of  vulnerability.      her  mother’s  voice  echoes  in  her  mind ,  like  booming  thunder  that  rattles  against  the  dome.  it  reminds  her  NOT  TO  BE  WEAK.  all  before  cursing  her  for  being  such  a  disappointment.

“  uh...  did  you  forget  last  time  you  kept  watch ?  ”        words ,  that  ought  to  be  thrown  in  his  face  as  if  made  of  acid ,  hold  the  smallest  traces  of  amusement.  following  the  twitch  in  her  lip.  the  curve  of  a  smile  she  doesn’t  allow  to  fully  blossom  onto  her  features.  it’s  locked  in  her  gaze.  green  eyes  brightening  as  eyebrows  lift.        “  i  woke  up  to  you  DROOLING  ON  MY  SHOULDER  and  half  our  stash  gone !  ”        fury  had  burned  through  her  that  night.  a  rage  that  might  have  once  held  power  to  bend  trees  and  break  lesser  men.  but  this  was  the  isle.  she  might  be  enough  to  strike  fear  into  the  hearts  of  her  classmates.  beyond  that...  she  didn’t  have  real  power.        “  why  don’t  you  get  some  sleep ?  besides  —  i’m  not  tired.  ”        if  she  said  it  enough ,  would  she  one  day  believe  it ?

@hethief​  /  ▄ = telling them a joke .

Deadpan. She simply stares at him. Blinks. Takes a moment to take in his laughter, before her own confusion forms on her face. It’s a self-conscious moment; she isn’t so sure if she’s just out of the loop on this one, so her arms cross in a way to protect and keep herself closed off. Uma settles as she always does when she is sure something is just an Auradon thing she wasn’t aware of yet: she’s bitchy and sharp when she talks. ❛ Was that supposed to be funny? ❜ She was trying, honestly, if her and Jay getting along mattered so damn much to Gil then she’d try endlessly, but sometimes she thought the core four’s time in Auradon had changed them more than she could get used to.
