"That’s right, I do," he chuckled, wrapping his arms around her briefly. The sound of her laughter always had a way of bringing out the old Tommy, the one with boyish glee written across his face and a childish innocence threaded into each fiber of his being. He knew he could never allow that old Tommy to thrive again, but it was nice to see him every once in a great while. And he wanted to tell her something now, tell her that he was sorry for being so detached as of late. He wished to tell her that he may love her, that he was afraid of losing her, but there was no time for that, no place for that, not now. Stepping back, he extended his hand. "Now, are you ready to for dinner, or would you like another round?"

[terrahiggs]

Terra took his hand in hers, skimming in between the fingers with her much smaller ones before clutching it to pull him towards her. Close once more, she smiled coyly at him and tilted her head to gaze through her lashes. "Why don't we..." Her hands  released his and raised to move up and down on his chest. "--go back to my place." The young woman briefly flashed him her teeth before continuing, arms creeping around his back and bringing them closer. "I can cook." She explained with a short nod, fully confident in her abilities not to blacken and burn their food. "And... we can continue our little chase elsewhere." 

[iinfernxm-deactivated20160123]

He waited, giving her a hefty head start with a grin on his face. Now was a good time for his mind to be hyperactive, watching that familiar head of curls bouncing through the crowd. This was the most he had smiled in such a long time that he wanted to savor it as much as humanly possible. When he was sure she thought she was mildly safe, he cut through the crowd and raced towards her. He was tall, but he was rather slender, able to weave through people with ease. Before long, he could see her again, but he remained on the opposite side of the crowd, running past her before cutting in and cutting her off, grabbing her around the waist and pulling her into the adjacent alley. Pressing her against the wall and capturing her lips, he was quite surprised himself at his bold action. “Do I win?”

[terrahiggs]

She wasn’t sure how long had passed, but there had been no sign of Tommy and Terra quickly eased herself into a slow pace, certain that she had lost him. The young woman planned to stop eventually so that he could find, it was only fair after all. But such pride and thinking combined was her downfall in this little game. A squeal  was released from her lips when arms unexpectedly wrapped around her being, pulling her to the nearest private space that the city provided. A few bypassers looked at the couple in question, but didn’t phase long and instead went on with their days. Between the wall and Tommy, Terra started to giggle and couldn’t stop even as his lips met hers. She encircled her arms around his neck loosely, the laughter dying down but not away, the twinkle of amusement still remaining strong in her eye. “You win, You win!"

[iinfernxm-deactivated20160123]

He leaned into her lips, his arm tightening around her as he attempted to regain his composure. He was sure that he was over such shock and awe tactics, but apparently, he was sadly mistaken. Still, he recovered much faster than he would have prior, turning his head to capture her lips briefly. “It will be on a twenty-four hour clock. So every four hours, the drawer will pop out, probably hit me in the knee with my luck and remind me to take a snack out of it. If I don’t take the snack after a set amount of time, it’ll set off an alarm.” He shrugged, having read over the spell quite a few times in consideration. Still, he shuddered at the incentive, eyes darting over to her. “Alright, I’ll get the snack,” he breathed. “Promptly.”

As she rushed away from him, he chuckled but headed off at a quick pace. “Have you seen my legs in comparison to yours? I know I can keep up just fine.”

[terrahiggs]

“That doesn’t mean anything! My legs are shorter but I can still move fast!” She grinned at him, bouncing on her feet. “Well... catch you later!” With a wink and a kiss blown his way, Terra darted from him, ducking between the couple in front of them and weaving further into the crowd. She ignored the brief exclaim of surprise and continued, a smirk plastered on her lips. The girl loved a good chase -- although, this time, she had the role she almost never had. The prey to Tommy’s predator. Well, kind of predator. Terra wasn’t quite sure he’d make a good predator, but she’d give him the chance to prove her wrong.

[iinfernxm-deactivated20160123]

Tommy nearly choked on his spit at the words that came out of her mouth. Great, the one thing he picked up in the locker room at work would have to be that. He was going to punch Aramis later. “Right, w-with me. To - right.” He relaxed when her laughter filled the air, tightening his grasp around her with a smile. “Okay, I’ll do a test run tomorrow, and I’ll see how it works out. Can’t be too hard of course. It’s just charming a drawer. I can’t promise I’ll remember to go to the store and pick up said snacks tomorrow though.” He grinned wryly at her. “Just kidding. I’ll make a note. And I will definitely keep to my promise.” He paused at her question before shaking his head. “No, I guess I don’t,” he laughed. “Lead the way.” 

[terrahiggs]

Triumph swirls in her chest at his reaction and she giggles lowly to herself, extremely satisfied with herself. Terra inched closer and bounced to the ball of her toes, fingers gripping onto the folds of his clothing, so that she could press a chaste kiss to his jawline. It was more or less a small apology for making him jump out his skin at her words. “Tell me how it goes then. I’m curious. I trust that it works though, because Pandora doesn’t strike me as the type to recommend useless tactics.” She leaned her head on his shoulder, “Tommy, get the snacks. I’ll make it worth your while if you do."

The girl stayed against him a moment more and then sighed, skipping away from him to look at him cheekily. “Think you can keep up with me?"

NO SALVATION

"My poor mother

begged for a sheep

but raised a wolf.”

// for girls with razor sharp claws and golden rings adorned on their fingers; the scrapes on your knees from praying ooze time and time again, but it doesn’t matter, no, it doesn’t matter because you no longer weep for your wounds. you do not weep because you are stronger than that. you are the wolf hidden among the sheep. [listen] [how to: download]

[startanewxtravers-deactivated20]

"O-Oh! Hey! D-Do you need some help with that?"

[terrahiggs]

“Ah--“ The girl frowned at the crack, worrying her lip between her teeth. “It’s already broken. Thanks though...” She turned to him, head tilting as she took in his appearance. “Hello, Kieran, it’s been a while."

[eleonor-crowther-deactivated201]

"It’s okay, I guess."

"It just really looked like you were hitting on me."

[terrahiggs]

“Well... It’s not too late for that. I still could since you look so disappointed in my not flirting with you."

[theoldermacmillan-deactivated20]

You gave me an incredibly good description. I’m glad I could deliver on my promise.

[terrahiggs]

Yes... thank you. [she held it close as if it were a dear child, cradling the box in her arms] I don’t know how I could repay you for this.

[jezebel-vablatsky]

"Hmm? Sorry did you say something?"

[terrahiggs]

“I should’ve spoken up, my fault.” She smiled softly, “I was commenting on your eyes, they’re really quite something."

[mikitapetrenko-deactivated20211]

“Money, money, money, must be funny… Sorry, I haven’t noticed you standing there. Do you need anything?”

[terrahiggs]

Terra brow furrowed at the line that spilled from the other’s lips, wondering where such a tune originated. “Sorry no, I was just having a look."

“What was that from -- if you don’t mind me asking that is..."

[theoldermacmillan-deactivated20]

[He winked at her and stepped inside. The box was sitting on the front table. Once back outside he handed it to her.] Here you go. Is it like the one you had as a child?

[terrahiggs]

[Words fail her as the music box is placed in her hands, gazing at it with no little wonder] I... I’m amazed.

It looks remarkably similar to the one I had. ...How did you do it?

[iinfernxm-deactivated20160123]

He rolled his eyes at her playful demeanor, and he wondered if perhaps they had switched spirits entirely. “You know, if I go down, I’m taking you with me,” he warned. A roaring chuckle left his lips as she swatted at him, shaking his head. “Alright, alright,” he huffed. “I’ll follow Gilroy’s lead and have a desk drawer stocked full of treats, yeah? How does that sound? Is that reasonable? Then I’ll just put it on a timer so that it slides open. Not pops open, but slides.” He grinned cheekily, patting her arm. At the admission, he shrugged. “I’m just - used to it.” It wasn’t like he was fed much while at home, so he learned to cope. He smiled, her concern truly heart-warming. “I promise, my love.” 

[terrahiggs]

She grinned cheekily in return, eyes twinkling with humor. “I’d love to go down on you... I mean--“ Her eyes widened in mock embarrassment, “--with you.” The brunette corrected herself, giggling at the innuendo. Terra bumped her hip against his and resumed walking normal beside him. “Sounds good with me. Tell me how it works though, because I’m not completely sold.” The girl frowned at his words, glancing at him sympathetically. “Good. Keep to that promise now.” She tightened her grasp on his shirt at the thought of yet another broken promise in her before quickly shaking her head to push away the unwanted thoughts. “Do you know where we’re going?"
