❝ SOO, i might’ve gotten lost somewhere?? ❞ that’s not too surprising. they have a tendency to get distracted and wander, after all. ❝ i mean i don’t exactly remember where i was going in the first place, but still! ❞ they hope they haven’t wandered somewhere where they’re not suppose to be. that would be bad.

[ muriel felt a chill run through his spine when their eyes met for a split of a second: asra’s apprentice? how could it be… ? he shook his head, averting his gaze. no, he shouldn’t worry. she didn’t seem to remember him nor she’d eventually remember this meeting, anyway. her pointless question didn’t need to be properly answered. ]

“ …… no one. ”

                                   𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐓 was her smile, as  BRIGHT  as a sunshine that would seep through cracks of the curtains in the break of  DAWN . Her  EYES  were  GLEAMING  like an innocent child walking through the streets like a naïve child. Well, she was one once again, only she did not know it. A voice as soothing as the hummingbird’s buzz and her voice... her accent no longer tinted with the Karnassosian accent she once carry with her.

                                  ❝ Well, I was told that nobody is a no one. We’re all someone. ❞   said she.   ❝ I can go first, I’m Tamara. What’s your name ? ❞

They had stopped not far from the edge of the forest, where the plains started to be scattered with trees and food would change from bigger game and grain to fruits and nuts and small prey, which for Kyran meant a change from roasted meats to stews and she welcomed the change.

Once camp was set, the tall woman had unsaddled her horse and taken all the load off her, and started to brush through her thick winter coat meticulously. After a long day of travelling, this was one of their favorite things to do. Of course Evike enjoyed the attention, but the brushing and taking care of her good steed was almost like a meditative state for the woman as well, and a moment of deep connection with her mount. They’d been together for years now, they understood each  other well, and Kyran would never neglect her companion, no matter how tired the warrior was herself.

“ oh, but we wer— are! ” [ lucio was fast to correct himself. ] “ i am just as shocked by his reaction, tamara! ” [ he threw his arms in the air, his eyes widened almost comically. needless to say, the count DID look forward to the two of them welcoming him back with open arms, if they happened to be able to see him just like the apprentice did. but alas, their responses didn’t meet his expectactions by a long shot. ]

“ ah, nevermind him.” [ he waved his hand dismissively. ] “ now that i got an equally powerful and cute magician by my side, his services will be needed no more, right? we’ll find a solution even without asra. ”

                                    𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐘 was written all over her  EYES  as she listened to the former Count. Finger reaching to touch her lip as she almost seemed like she was  CONTEMPLATING  her hasty decision to tie his  SOUL  with hers. Perhaps, she was being rash and that she would so often perform an  ACT  without a thinking it over. It had always been her folly, you see. She once joked to Asra that she would probably die one day because of her stupid whims. Well, Asra was almost as displeased as he had seen Lucio when those words left her mouth. Brown eyes watched as he waved his hand before a  BLUSH  creeped over her cheeks at the phantom’s compliment. 

                                    Turning her face away, she cleared her throat as if that could easily bring back her composure.   ❝ Yes, well, I’m an apprentice... I know only a handful of spells and brews. I got lots of spellbooks back home but... it’ll take  FOREVER  to get through them all. ❞

“How sweet… and uncharacteristically innocent.” ( from ghosty lucio 👀 )

@secndroute (oooh prepare for stupidly flirty lyn)

Lyntel settles down on the soot stained bed, crossing their legs. “Innocent? How is being innocent uncharacteristic for me? And how would you know what I’m like?”

" nish, bringing alwa with us goes against my better judgment. our goal is to simply retrieve some supplies at the marketplace, we do not want to cause panic & havoc. " (( hope this works for you 🤔 ? ))

unprompted || always accepting!

“Oh, calm down! Everything is gonna be fine. See? I mean, have you ever seen a more educated and outstandingly friendly gigantic cat? Wouldn’t you want to trust your little kid to this really mannered predator? I’m telling you, last time we managed to finish our errands with only three minor injuries whatsoever and I do believe that’s a record in this house. Isn’t it, A?”

Oh yeah. Marvelous, indicated the feline who had the weary gesture of a much older sister no longer in control of her younger sibling anymore. In fact, if one had to put their trust into one of those two, a much safer bet would have been the cat, who patiently waited with a dignified expression for her companions to be ready, instead of the young woman who had taken the chance of leaving the shop to add a little extra paint into her lips and was already planning to bat her eyelashes to a certain spice’s trader. 

“Now, say again: What is this thing we have to find and why do we need it so much, uh? Are you trying a new potion or something?” She gave herself one last glance in the mirror before deciding that everything was in its rightful place, only to turn to the other woman in the room and playfully wink in her direction. Much to her familiar’s annoyance, of course.

[ leilani, ashamed of her childish curiosity, hid her hands under the long sleeves of her blouse. despite the risk of ruining the expensive picture, just by a quick glance it was obvious that volta didn’t seem to care much. still, the apprentice felt the need to explain her brash behavior anyway. ]“ i usually wouldn’t snoop around nor touch estimeed paintings, for that matter. ” [purple irises were locked on the painted dining scene, as if trying to see a secret meaning behind it. ]

“ this one has just— an alluring aura to it. i cannot quite put my finger on why, though…what are your thoughts on it if i may ask, procurator ? ”  

                                       𝐒𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐋 as she may be, she was still observant despite the lack of  SIGHT  upon her right eye. The amount of time lowering her head to nibble upon whatever snack that was within her little  HANDS  would always grant more senses to her ears and eyes. The purpose of her mouth always seemed to be  FEASTING , not  SPEAKING . The procurator approached Leilani with happy steps, eye glancing at the painting in question.

                                      ❝ Looks just like any painting to me, I fancy embroidery on tapestries. I can’t really tell what to make of this. ❞   shrugging a fabric-covered shoulder, her gaze returned to the apprentice. She tilted her head, fingers intertwining together, as if begging.   ❝ Now, since you’re here, can you do me a favour ? Oh, please, please ? I need to grab the cookie jar in one of the shelves in the kitchen and you’re the only one around ! ❞
