"do you want pickles on your burger?" she pulls her wallet out of her purse, turning to look at august curiously. she's already given the cashier their order after having gone over the menu with august on the way here. "i forgot to ask if you wanted pickles. i can still get them taken off." she pulls cash from her wallet, handing it over so they can get their order number.

"there's blood on your cheek." the kids are asleep, safely tucked in for the night. she hadn't been expecting toji to return tonight, but here he stands in their living room. closing the distance between them, she motions him forward so that she can wipe his cheek. she's learned not to ask questions about his work. "are you hungry? i can heat up the leftovers. i made a chili with some cornbread. the kids really enjoyed it."

"you think an expensive bottle of whiskey and a pack of cigarettes is going to win you any favors?" as if elias isn't already in adrian's office. he huffs and eyes the bottle before he roughly rubs at his chin. he told himself he wouldn't come back, but the moment adrian reached out, he came running. "what do you need this time, a? i don't even know if i'll be able to pull off whatever it is you need."
@okkanai + adrian
breathing is ragged as he keeps himself pressed against the brick wall. pressure is applied to the wound, and while the bleeding has slowed, he still needs to see someone to get the bullet out. with his free hand, he had pulled his phone out, fingers moving on their accord and before he knows it, he's calling adrian to tell him his location and that he'd been hurt. now while he waits, trying to keep himself from passing out. he has to focus on something, anything, has to keep himself busy . . . and he does, by singing we belong together by mariah carey.
"the fe-feeling that i'm feeling now that i . . . don't hear your voice or have your . . . to-touch and kiss your lips . . . 'cause i don't have a choice . . . "

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤSkies, bleak ; the heavy scent, of rain within the air. ㅤㅤClouds did announce themselves with rolling thunder, and lightning's strike.
Where many would scramble for shelter, or open wide their deterrents to heavy rain, she found peace. For near NOTHING, in this land lived. There was no steady, beating heart, of forests' center. No soils to connect oneself to the Earth with, no sign of Gaia's Love, in this land, not her own. Were it not for the ever-present dread, the acrid taste of FEAR, Celeste would only show her sympathies, her sorrows.
Claws scrape against concrete, chill from it an ever - present reminder, that this HOME she had crossed, was dead. Decaying. Birds, of a specific sort, were not intended for human structures, their cages of concrete and steel. But she, in her strangeness, could not live among humans in their grand cities, or even within their smaller settlements. Not without consequence. Not without danger. With ease, does she carry herself to rooftop, where rubble would cascade down like a landslide, on the worse days.
ㅤㅤ If she could not find comfort, in the trees and hills, she'd find it in rain.
Talons move next, but halt ; footfall. Footfall, that was not akin to the gentle tapping of her own. Ears lift, and owlish - eyes only grow larger. They search, at her back as head turns, in some sort of desperation, who would come here, if there was nothing to find ? Rise and fall of her chest begins to hasten, but she knows well, not to let clawing anxiety show, too much. With care, does she seat herself down, arms crossed tight over breast, small creature doing all possible to make herself smaller.
❝ ... These conditions aren't kind to humans, ❞ She says gently, hoping that kindness would spare her WRATH, ❝ ...And this place is certainly far from your settlement, I'd imagine ... ❞

"what gave you the impression that i'm still mad?" he is. he is still mad. there's a cigarette between his lips but he hasn't lit it yet because he isn't sure adrian would be alright with the smoke inside his office. "pour me a double. it's been a long day." a long day of adrain running through his mind, trying to figure out whether or not he should fill out this damn card.
@okkanai liked ✧ 𓂅 for a nova starter !
she lays back on the couch, arm thrown over her face. writer's block wasn't something nova really dealt with— not with this series. everything had always just come so naturally to her . . . but this last book was the hardest to write. she thought she had a clear vision of how she had wanted it to end, but now that she was here, her mind was blank. groaning, she raises her other hand for elara, wiggling her fingers. "do you think people would notice if i didn't finish this series and just left the country and changed my name?"
