@hunting--grounds asked: ❝ Leave your number. If I find anything, I'll be in touch. ❞ | from Roman ♡

Saskia raised an eyebrow but began writing her number down on a purple sticky note without saying anything at first. "You know, if this was all a ploy to get my number; you could've just asked instead of telling me my house was haunted," she shrugged before ripping the note off and handed it to Roman.

"Just don't open the box under the bed... or just avoid under the bed period."

@hunting--grounds asked: sweater weather. Daeun notices Saskia is wearing something too light for the current temperature and removes their sweater just to wrap her carefully and provide her warmth.

Saskia was kicking herself for not bringing a jacket, not expecting it to get that cold later in the evening. But she didn't have a jacket that would've matched her outfit on top of that, so she didn't bring one.

She hadn't expected anyone to even notice that she was cold, so she almost jumped out of her skin once Daeun wrapped his sweater around her shoulders. Once she turned, she smiled at him. "You really didn't have to do that, but thank you. Aren't you gonna get cold?"

@hunting--grounds asked: ❝ I can't give you my heart, but I will see that you have anything else you could wish for. ❞ | from Kyung, HEAR ME OUT: royal Saskia and Kyung, but he's still in love with a pirate he once ran away with before coming back home to save his family 👀

Saskia knew Kyung would never love her, no matter how hard she tried or how long they were together. But love wasn't a luxury she was allowed to have, she'd been told that since she was a child. She was married for an alliance, nothing more and nothing less.

"You don't understand," she whispered, looking down at the rings on her fingers, fixated on her wedding ring. "My happiness doesn't matter here; I have a duty to perform to you, to our people. I don't expect you to love me, or for anyone to love me; as long as I have children, then that's all that matters."

ʚ   A POSITIVITY MEME – pick three that nobody else has sent ♡

A POSITIVITY MEME  :  The past week has been rough on the RPC, and sometimes we all need a little reminder of the good that keeps us here. Whether it’s friends, writing partners, or just a safe place to create, let’s celebrate the positives!

🎨 : someone whose creativity you admire

i think @shadowedvales is so creative and talented, her writing should be on display in a museum. frankie could ressurrect me from the worst writers block. she is crazy talented and pours so much love and depth into jane and all her muses. even if we aren't actively writing, just chatting to her about muses has me !!! hyped af !!! i am in constant awe at the beauty of her writing and her dedication to her muses, especially jane (shoutout to terry too, i'm biased) i remember being so scared to make any contact back in like 2023 but now i am so glad we did bc amazinggg. i feel like words don't do enough justice to explain how much i admire ur writing frankie!

020. the dark woods, filled with strange hanging symbols made of sticks . | from Eunwoo ♡

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐒

eddie's spent hours over the years traversing through the woods. as a toddler with his mom, walking along dirt trails. as a kid using sticks as swords in epic battles against imaginary monsters. as a teenager on walks back home && late nights with friends. it doesn't freak him out, not really. the wind whistling in the trees is background noise by now at twenty, but ... this time is different. the wind blows through the trees, wooden hanging symbols tapping together from low && impossibly high branches. branches high enough it's a wonder how anyone got up there.

a beam of his flashlight swipes over to the sticks, bound together in twine, symbols carved into each && every one. eddie walks slow, every step audible with crunching leaves && branches below the two. whoever - or whatever - is around most certainly knows they're here by now. the flashlight drifts above them, an array of what looks like HUNDREDS of these things above && even more up ahead.

" wait. " an arm suddenly shoots out against eunwoo's chest, preventing him from stepping any further. " this is fucking weird. " eddie whispers to the other, a sense of excitement in his tone despite the building unease. one of the sticks is yanked from the nearest tree, bad idea, the flashlight focusing on the symbol. it's nothing familiar, nothing occult or religious. the symbol was carved in with a knife, obvious by the grooves in the wood, but they seem violent. slashes with no precision.

" you know what this is?? " the piece of wood is casually flung over to eunwoo, though it could totally be cursed or something ... but yeah, okay, eddie, don't take it seriously.

@hunting--grounds asked: ❝ From now on, we make decisions together. Nobody acts on their own. ❞ | from Yeonu ♡

Saskia was still getting used to being a werewolf when they came across the crime scene, she was completely horrified at the pure carnage around them. It was almost as if the victims went through a meat grinder, it was a very violent scene that was in front of them.

Staying close to Yeonu, she almost took a step behind them. "Are sure one of us did this?" she asked, knowing it was somewhat of a dumb question. Of course it had to be a werewolf, there was no way a human could do that.

@hunting--grounds asked: ❝ You're not drinking the Kool-Aid are you? ❞ | from Kian, (trickster fae) ♡

Saskia slowly dropped her cup, that was full of vodka and coke before glaring at Kian. "What kind of girl do you think I am? I'm a floozy that's what. I’m not joining a cult if that’s what you’re insinuating, I have way better things to do with my time."

@hunting--grounds asked: ❝ Death doesn't like being cheated. ❞ | from Kyung ♡

"But I didn't cheat death, did I?" Saskia asked, her chin resting on her knees as she looked up at Kyung. "I still died, I just so happen to be unable to stay dead as I've very recently discovered."

Forcing herself to stand, she was aware of how loud her bones cracked, trying to move back to their proper positions. She looked down at the spear still lodged in her chest. "Excuse me," she murmured before pushing it through her and letting it fall to the floor. "I liked this shirt too."
