Evil isn’t born, it’s made. And so is good.

They’re  having  coffee  in  Paris,  sitting  outside  on  a  cute  table  with  a  huge  umbrella  shielding  them  from  the  sun.  REGINA  LIKES  TO  PRETEND  SHE’S  NORMAL,    likes  to  hold  the  dainty  little  cup  to  her  lips  and  smell  the  rich  aroma  of  the  columbian  blend  she’s  ordered  despite  the  dried  splatter  of  blood  on  her  sleeve.  @thatsdevilstears ​  says,  ❝  Maybe  this  mentoring  stuff  requires  patience  that  I  don’t  have.  ❞  And  Regina  is  inclined  to  agree.

❝  Honestly,  dear,  I  have  no  idea  why  you  try  bothering  with  anyone  else. ❞  She  swipes  at  a  servitte  and  dabs  it  along  her  sleeve.  The  blood  refuses  to  budge.  ❝  If  an  ass— ❞  she  stops  herself  before  the  waiter  sets  a  creme  brulee  on  the  table,  ❝  ASSHOLE  wants  to  be  made,  they’ll  find  a  way  to  do  it  themselves.  ❞  Her  dabbing  becomes  more  agressive,  the  blood  stubbornly  soaks  deeper  into  her  sleeve.  A  growl,  and  Regina  rips  off  the  fabric.  

❝  That  was  fucking  Armani.  ❞

" i thought i'd become a big fish, " villanelle said before dipping a spoon into ‪a piece of millefeuille. it looked utterly delicious and she couldn't wait to devour it. their little mission was easy - made her famished nevertheless. " not that i'm not... " she added with a smirk, glancing at the stain before taking a spoonful of creamy cake into her mouth. a soft moan of approval vibrated in her throat. " why bother ?! you'll get a new one. " a full mouth didn't stop her from speaking.

the blonde patted the spoon against her lips then. " i don't trust hélène, though. i think she's up to something. " her cat eyes narrowed as she looked back at regina -- wouldn't she agree? they kind of where in this together. it was a nice change for life to surprise her after all. for a long she wouldn't consider herself to out cut out for working in a team. yet, regina was different. regina was like her in many ways -- reason why they should not trust each other. nevertheless, they were fabulous together.

villanelle finally reached and placed hand on top of her companions. her brow ached softly. " have a bite. this is so much better than armani. "

It  has  never  been  easy,  this  life  of  an  Aes  Sedai.  Moiraine  knows  it  well  enough  after  a  shift  keeping  the  man  they  suspect  is  the  DRAGON  bound.  They  had  struggled  to  hold  him  in  place,  but  suceeded  nonetheless.

When  @thatsdevilstears ​  says    ‘I’m  proud  of  you’,  something  in  Regina  snaps  loose.  She  stays  silent  for  a  long  time,  ruminating  in  the  words  never  said  to  her  before,  never  thought  to  be  uttered  to  someone  who  has  always  DONE  HER  JOB  WELL.  When  she  finds  her  voice,  Regina  offers  Moiraine  a  smile  and  nod.  ❝  I  take  pride  in  myself,  but  your  admiration  is  duly  noted.  ❞  She’s  too  tired  to  try  and  take  offence,  to  make  Moiraine’s  words  out  to  be  more  than  they  are.

❝  You  did  well  today,  too.  ❞  And  tomorrow,  who  knows  if  they’ll  manage  to  keep  that  man  in  check  if  he  decides  to  test  their  bindings.

a barely visible smile appeared on moiraine's lips, amusement couldn't be hidden entirely. a lot of things chanced since the last time she's been in the white tower. but some things never changed. not that she had to worry liandrin would get a chance to dig her claws in her fellow sister -- thank the light for that.

she nodded in a thank you, but then got up. "today, yes. we shouldn't postpone the leave, though." it would take them a month, no less, to get logan before a fair trail. would they, though? the amount of strength they've used up so far was enormous. how long would they be able to contain it. after all... only the five of them were strong enough to hold him. and that was the least of their worries. "i fear we haven't yet seen his full potential." he was the most dangerous person mooraine encountered in years. so much more powerful than either of them.

a glimpse of worry shined in her orbs as she turned to look one more time at the man -- looking so utterly peaceful. alana, liandrin and kerene quite the opposite. moiraine breathed in as they left the cave.

"feed me with some news -- unless you haven't been that much in the tower yourself?"

Spotting Emma staring at her is fairly easy. The woman seems to make it obvious and so, Regina arches an eyebrow at her in a curious manner. The way in which Emma stares almost seems as if she’s admiring her and Regina hardly thinks it is her imagination. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

a smile sneaked on emma's lips, sheepish at being caught staring. as if she was even trying to be subtle. she shrugged softly and slipped hands into pockets of her jeans. "you have quite a show. that's all." in reality she could list all the things that made quite the impression on her. starting how fearless regina was, stopping at how strong and skilled she was with her magic. not to mention the sass that once kept driving her insane. the three witches for sure didn't see it all coming.

" but it c a n ! "

regina looked at the queen with sadness filling up her chocolate orbs. tightness in her chest very much resembling the all too familiar sensation -- her other half as well could have hold her heart in her hand right now, squeeze it without mercy. yin and yang -- one but the opposites. two poles pushing and pulling. it was painful to be close as it was painful to be appart.

"haven't we subordinated out lives long enough to this? to us?" however the ' t h i s ' could be defined. she no longer knew. this nor anything beyond. she didn't know which path to take, which would be better for both of them. for two women too different, but too alike. both sides of the same coin. one soul.

❛ I’m sure you would’ve made a wonderful negotiator between England and Gilead. You hold yourself very well, by God’s Hand. We’ll have to settle things with Canada before we can even begin to venture out into Europe though. ❜

"pardon me for saying so, but it doesn't seem like canada was willing to cooperate any time soon. if ever." after all, it seemed like there was much of a war between the two countries. If refugees were to find help, it was there. canada's spirit was truly admirable for him. perhaps there was some people worth having faith in.

Serena’s  expresion  of  cluelessness  could  fool  anyone  into  believing  her  innocence.  A  GIFT,  Regina  is  sure,  that  has  served  one  of  Gilead’s  most  powerful  wives  for  years.

Not  wanting  to  dirty  her  dress,  Regina  bends  enough  that  she  can  look  Serena  in  the  eyes.  ❝  You  should  have  come  to  me.  ❞  Her  gaze  slips  down  to  the  bandaged  stump  where  Serena’s  finger  used  to  be.  A  noble  cause  that  the  men  won’t  listen  to,  only  SERVE  TO  PUNISH  when  it  suits  them.  ❝  If  you  want  change,  then  it  must  be  done  with  finesse.  ❞

a small smile appeared on serena's face then. extremely subtle. perhaps even sad. for regina was right. yet, serena knew the risk. nevertheless, it did hurt to watch her friends turn her back on her. she couldn't blame them for fearing those consequences. the truth is a part of her didn't want to believe fred would allow this to happen, though. she couldn't be more wrong.

"you aren't all that s u b t l e in nature, regina," serena said simply. were any of them really?

did she ask for so much? nor once she complained. not when they excluded her -- all women women really. took on her idea -- the ideology -- as their own. for there was higher purpose of all the sacrefices they had to make. to be blessed with god's mercy - blessed with a child. she didn't want to appear ungrateful. she didn't want to dwell on all the things they've lost. all for the higher cause. higher purpose. that's what she kept telling herself to endure what fred kept doing. what he took from her. and now her daughter wouldn't even know what she was deprived of.

"i'm happy to listen, though."

“That is just…patently false,” Regina said, eyes widening. She might have gotten a little too tipsy on wine the night before but she did not remember what Emma was claiming. But Regina was taken even more by surprise by the other woman’s last statement. She hadn’t mind? Oh. That was something she hadn’t been expecting. Regina had the grace not to blush over it but dark eyes shifted from Emma’s face to the floor between them. Yes, Emma was attractive and Regina appreciate that. At the same time, she drove Regina nuts at times with her roll with the punches demeanor. 

Finally, she sighed and forced herself to look at Emma once again. “I apologize if I crossed a line or made you feel uncomfortable,” she said dryly. Just because she didn’t remember getting handsy with Emma didn’t mean it didn’t happen. 

seeing the utter surprise on the brunette's face emma's brow arched ever so slightly. the not so subtle smile also appeared on her face. yes, this morning emma realized they have gone a bit too far with drinking, but she wouldn't guess regina wouldn't remember quite a piece of it. this was definitely unexpected. but emma wasn't exactly thinking at that time either. once thinking soberly at last, everything that had happened the night before left her confused. but then... there was probably no point in reading too much into it. so she went chill. and just t a l k about it. "oh, it's patently true," she answered with the same amusement still written on her face.

"hey, don't worry. you didn't. i guess... i was too drunk myself." she snorted softly and tapped fingers on the cushion she placed on her lap. emma on the other hand, also didn't want to make regina uncomfortable right now. but it seemed like the more regina deserved to know what she apparently didn't remember. a part of her, deep down, regretted she didn't. because it was one hell of a kiss and just thinking about it made emma all flushed. her stomach would flip. like a freaking teenager... "we don't have to talk about it, though. if you don't feel comfortable with it. i'd get it."

A sad smile crosses Dani’s features. Won’t she lose her anyway? As much as neither of them want to admit it, it is only a matter of time before the Lady of The Lake comes for her. Drags her back down to her watery doom. She doesn’t know how to stop it, she would if she could, but she can’t and one day, she’ll pay for what she did. For saving the children and taking the spirit of the lady of the lake into her own body.

“I’m not going anywhere. Not until Viola drags me away herself.”

"we will find a way, dani..." she whispered. jamie refused to believe there was no other way. dani was so brave and strong to contain it inside if her. but there had to be some other vessel for viola. non-human. no-one should ever pay such price. jamie cupped dani's cheek and looked into her eyes ; one blue, the other brown. "alright?" she didn't want their life to be all about it. but she didn't want to passively wait for the day dani will... go away.

sergio chuckled lightly before his arms wrapped around andrés in a tight brotherly embrace. "oh, i could say the same." pulling away he looked at his face closely and smiled once more. "looking good, brother. i am sure we have so much to catch up on." it's been a long time and andrés never failed at living his life to the fullest.

"i really could have done it myself..." alex muttered softly but a smile formed on her face. after all those years it felt good to be taken care of by her mother. melanie was always so warm, so attentive. even if she wasn't home that much. but when she was it seemed as if alex was her whole world. she missed it so much...

wilford was capable of affection. at first. he knew how to make her trust him. care for him. but the older she got, the less he tolerated any sign of weakness. including physical pain. so even not a muscle on her face didn't twitch at the cut on her palm. "thank you," she said at last.

‘ you’re not so bad. ’ ~ Javi x Melanie

"seems like you're the only one thinking so. but that's ok." melanie sent her follow friend a small yet warm smile. all her decisions were always extremely calculated. their lives since the freeze depended on nothing but that. each choice had to be carefully weighed upon the scale. at times those decisions were extremely hard. but those times they knew there was no other choice but to use all the means to the end. some things needed to be sacrificed. in this case she was willing to sacrifice herself and love of those closest to her. it hurt, but it was necessary. "i'm happy you stayed by my side. the other's didn't seem to notice it was all wrong."

❝  are you sure you’re alright? ❞ (anne to gilbert!)

"yes, why wouldn't i be?" gilbert put a stiff smile on his face, hoping it would come unnoticed. anne was so chaotic at times, all over the place---- but then again anne never seemed to miss a thing. he sat at the porch with a soft sigh and looked at the redhead. this time his smile was genuine seeing care in her eyes. "you shouldn't worry so much."
