A Change | Closed

( @themoriartyfirmltd )

“Well if that’s how you feel about my bloody job maybe you should just fucking leave!” Harry left the room in a huff, leaving behind Xandra without giving her any chance to reply.

An undercover case that he’d taken without speaking with his fiancée first was the cause of the fight. Harry had always had trouble turning things down when it came to his job.

And so he’d left his partner alone in the vast drawing room of his family home, storming off to bed to prepare for his departure the next day.

Theo saw his chance.

It had only been a month that he’d know this woman that his younger brother had attached himself to, and that meant he could play himself up as the kind and overlooked younger sibling. The lesser man, if you will.

From his place outside the door he grinned before masking his face with slight pity as he entered to see Xandra standing by the hearth.

“Lovers’ quarrel?” He asked, an eyebrow raising. “Good thing you’ve landed yourself near the drinks.”

Rich dropped into the chair with a sigh, laying his jacket not-so-neatly over the back as he did so. He loosened his tie and pushed fingers through his hair and looked at his brother unimpressed. Tired. “It went well. B-barely.” They had the information they needed, at least. “I didn’t like my guard. He was too friendly.”

@themoriartyfirmltd commented HERE for a starter 

Andromeda was fickle. Some days she couldn’t stand being touched whether by people or her own clothing. Other days, though? Other days she was clingy and would not let go. Today was one of those, her arms around Xan’s neck and her face pressed up to her cheek, legs round her waist. 

“We should do something today,” she mentioned lightly, making no move to untangle herself, “Go shopping... to the park... before it gets dreary again.”

🛌(love xan x)

( Send one for my muses reaction to yours…🛌=Sneaking in bed with them. )

It had been Harry’s first day off in a very long time (taken solely because James had all but threatened him to) and he had spent the day catching up on sleep. He was sprawled out on his stomach, face squished against the pillow, when the other side of the bed creaked and he realized that his fiancée had returned.

He smiled and rolled over, wanting to greet her with a kiss and a grin.“‘M glad you’re home,” he said.

‘People still don’t take me seriously. I want to be numb again.’ { from Xan }

“You don’t want to be taken seriously, then people will expect it of you and you won’t be able to have any fun at all.” Jackson sighs at her, smirking slightly. He knew who this person was, and more importantly, who they were related to. They would certainly be fun. He walks up to the edge of the building where she was sat, legs dangling off the edge. She was safe, he could see that much, it was just quiet up here, despite the noise of the city. “And as contradictory as it sounds, being numb hurts. I don’t recommend it.” He chuckles humourlessly, sitting down besides her.

"I was faced with the realisation that I never needed you." { from Katie, for Jim, please! }

꧁POETRY SENTENCE STARTERS꧂

A small smile plays on his lips, head tipping to the side. “Is that right?” he asked. How funny, he had to think. “I’m sorry to say I wasn’t faced with the same turmoil. You were never much more than a bit of fun, darling. Though I suppose I did end up with something out of it.”

[fortitudina]

“You should have called me.” { for Ruby, hi ! please choose from any of my muses! }

            A bloodied and bust lip with a black eye to match met the Tiger’s gaze as Ruby slowly lifted her head from the shadow of the dimly lit room. Her eyes were filled with tears waiting to be freed but she was reluctant to allow herself to cry. She was an assassin like her father; she should be emotionless   —   a heart of stone. For once though, Ruby had become scared and she had feared for her life. It was something she was less than proud of, perhaps that was why she did not want to cry in front of her father. But his tone suggested concern more than anger; after all, she still got her job done despite being beaten up in the process.   “   I didn’t want you to think me incapable of completing a job. Or for Jim to think I wasn’t up to scratch…   ”

[heroicintention-a]

✵ { love xan, for ... jill, annie, and orion, please! }

Send ✵ and my muse will answer the following. still accepting!!

JILLIAN

Their first impression of your muse: Intelligent young woman, but someone who needs protection.Jillian remembers what it’s like to be a young lady in the business.

Current impression: Jillian worries over the girl but sees her as capable. Sometimes too headstrong. She sees a lot of her brother in Xan, which worries her.

Are they attracted to your muse?:

Something they find frightening about your muse: That she’s heading down a similar path that Jillian did; that she’ll end up like Jim. 

Something they find adorable about your muse:  Jillian thinks Xan is a cutie pie. She also thinks it’s cute / funny when she’s mad.

Would my muse sacrifice themselves for yours?: Yes, without a doubt. Family is important to Jillian. 

Would my muse go on a date with yours?  platonic/romantic: 

One word my muse would use to describe yours:  Brilliant

Would my muse slap yours if they could?: Not unless she said something smart.

Would my muse hug/kiss yours?:  Xan gets ALL the hugs.

ANNIE

Their first impression of your muse: A possible threat or asset to her family. Andromeda could tell she was smart, but wasn’t one to approach at the time. 

Current impression: She’s sweet and caring, the one person Andromeda can fully trust. Annie would do anything for her.

Are they attracted to your muse?: Very much so, yes.

Something they find frightening about your muse: Not much frightens her about Alexandra. Perhaps the way she looks when Andromeda is in a particular mood. Like she isn’t looking at the same person... but that more makes Annie afraid of herself.

Something they find adorable about your muse: Alexandra is adorable when she’s sleeping. And Annie is probably very weird for watching her sleep but... yknow.

Would my muse sacrifice themselves for yours?: Yes, she would. And she knows that a time may come she has to as her brother’s patience wears thin.

Would my muse go on a date with yours?  platonic/romantic: Yes (they probably already have)

One word my muse would use to describe yours:  Beautiful

Would my muse slap yours if they could?: No.

Would my muse hug/kiss yours?:  On most days yes. There are days when Annie doesn’t enjoy physical touch, but most days she likes to be smothered in attention.

ORION

Their first impression of your muse: A girl who thinks she knows more than she does, that thinks she can do more than she can, a pawn into the home of one of London’s most influential people.

Current impression: Mainly the same but also a potential threat to his comfortable and routine lifestyle.

Are they attracted to your muse?: He finds her rather nice to look at.

Something they find frightening about your muse: Her connections. He is weary of Moriarty and his sniper, but not that bothered by Alexandra.

Something they find adorable about your muse: When she tries to threaten him or act as if she knows more than him.

Would my muse sacrifice themselves for yours?: Absolutely not. It would be more useful if she died.

Would my muse go on a date with yours?  platonic/romantic: He’s gone to dinners involving business but wouldn’t engage romantically.

One word my muse would use to describe yours:  Nuisance

Would my muse slap yours if they could?: Yes

Would my muse hug/kiss yours?:  I’m assuming he has kissed her and perhaps more in the past. He would again if it would cause her discomfort.
