Late Night Wanderings - Johnny/Skye

[knuddelmausi3-blog]

“Pay you–?”

It was a little awkward, he thought– but Johnny chalked the awkwardness up to himself. He was a fairly awkward person, after all– he’d proven that fact to himself time and time again. “Yeah, sure– that sounds great. You know up where the farmland is? Up–”

He pointed vaguely in the direction he was headed in. “I think all up over that way? Um– or maybe it’s this way.” He pointed this second way for clarification. “Definitely one of the two. But yeah– I’ll totally cover it!”

[the-midnight-skye]

“Sounds wonderful!” Skye exclaimed with a clap of his hands and a grin.  He was not exactly sure how he was going to get the man home, but his sense of direction was not awful, so he figured since he had passed by farmland once before, he should be able to do it again.

Although the stranger was not being much help, Skye began heading in the first direction that he pointed out.  “Now I’m not entirely sure which farm you’re headed too, but I believe there is one this way, so... let’s go, shall we ♪?”

Late Night Wanderings - Johnny/Skye

“Ah, yeah– sorry.” It made sense that someone who worked in a mansion as large as this one would be busy, even this late at night - or at least, it made sense to Johnny in this moment as he made his way home from the bar. “I don’t mean to interrupt or anything– uh. I’m just a little lost.”

He snickers, realizing how silly that sounds. “And I know I live here and all and it’s kinda dumb to get lost in the town you live in and all, but I’ve only been here half a year, yeah? And it’s hard to figure out those roads in the dark.” He nods, rubbing one eye with the palm of his hand. “If you’ve got a map or anything in there–” he pointed to the mansion, “–I’ll be happy to pay you for it.”

So far it seemed as if the man believed Skye’s lies, and he was grateful for this.  Though it looked as if Skye would have to give up the act eventually, quickly becoming stuck on how he could help the stranger find his way home.  Of course he could simply turn him away, but what would be the fun in that?  Perhaps he could keep up the lie for a little longer.

“Well... no, we don’t really have any maps we can just give you... but if you’re willing to pay me for my time, I can always escort you home. ♪”  His eyes were more accustomed to the dark than they were for the average person.  He was bound to lead them in the right direction eventually.

Caught in the Act - Danny/Skye

[the-midnight-skye]

dannysgroceries:

“It looks like you’re trying to break into my house!” 

Danny could be quick to anger at times. Trying to play off an obvious robbery attempt like it was nothing wasn’t going to get Danny to second guess what he was seeing. In fact, it would probably take a pretty convincing argument. Of course, there was nothing really in the store worth stealing. However, that’s what made it all the more irritating for Danny. The leftover stock was bad, but he needed to try to sell it off so he could make back some money. As for the money he kept from Rosetta’s job, most of that needed to go somewhere else than Danny’s personal savings.

“Get away from that window! Who are you!?”

Well the man was not as stupid as Skye hoped he would be.  Taking a step back from the building, Skye prepared himself to run in case he had absolutely no other choice.  However, even though he had been caught, it did not necessarily mean he was not going to try stealing from the shop anymore.  He just wanted some food, and maybe a few various trinkets that he could sell.

“I am the Phantom Thief, Skye... well known in some areas, but... well, a mystery in others~.”  The man kept his voice calm, not wanting to show just how nervous he really was.  “Now you can let me steal from you... or we can do this the hard way.”

Late Night Wanderings - Johnny/Skye

[the-midnight-skye]

knuddelmausi:

While Johnny had become fairly fond of going out after sunset to avoid the heat of the day, it was only for one thing that he stayed out quite so late as he was out on this particular night. With a few drinks tucked happily away in his tummy and a good conversation with the regulars who hung out in the bar at night behind him, Johnny hummed pleasantly to himself as he made his way home from Raeger’s.

It was a long walk, unfortunately - and while Johnny relished nights like this for how fun and comfortable they could be, it was kind of a pain to get all the way back home in the dark. The woods weren’t as easy to navigate at night as they were in the day - and when Johnny found himself trudging through somewhat unfamiliar territory, he gave himself pause trying to figure out where he was. Had he turned right too soon? It would probably connect through to the path he took home if he kept going north, right?

It wasn’t until a rock kicked up and snagged the side of his shoe that he even noticed that he wasn’t alone.

“Huh?” he started, squinting in the darkness to see who had suddenly been startled into addressing him. “Oh, hey– sorry, did I scare you? You work here?” He gestured to the mansion. He didn’t know much about it personally, besides knowing that it was tucked away on roads he didn’t often travel. One could see the top of it well enough from most places around here, after all. “Think you could help me out, buddy?”

Luckily it did not seem as if the stranger had noticed Skye’s mumblings to himself, and he let out a sigh of relief.  The last thing he needed was for the townspeople to catch on to the fact that there was a thief roaming around the forest.

“Oh... no, I mean... yes.”  Though the man’s immediate response what that no, he had not scared him, he decided to lie through his teeth and admit to being one of the mansion’s many workers.  Perhaps disguising himself as one of them would be an easy way into the building, and silently he thanked the stranger for the idea.

“Sure... I mean, I’m a little busy, but what exactly is it that you need help with, Sir~?”  If he was going to pretend to be a worker, then he had to keep up a polite act, no matter how painful it was to do so.

[the-midnight-skye]

dannysgroceries:

Danny walked back late from Materia. Man, work had been tiring ever since he’d had to work for Rosetta. However, it was a good type of tired, somehow, unlike when he’d run his own store. As he began thinking about what he’d do to unwind before bed, he heard something coming from the back of his shop- er, house. He should probably just call it his house, now.

He went ot the other side and there he saw someone fiddling with his window.  It didn’t exactly take a great amount of intellect to form a theory about what was happening. “Hey! What do you think you’re doing?!” Danny snapped. 

Skye held his breath as he waited for the moment to pass.  Perhaps he could make a run for it, but before he even had the chance to, a man appeared from around the corner.

“Shit...” the thief mumbled to himself as he was suddenly yelled at.  Taking a step back, he rose his hands into the air.  This would have been so much easier if the visitor had been a woman.  “Well... what does it look like I’m doing?” Skye asked, trying to play it cool.

Okay so do to procrastination on finishing that skyexclaire drawing I couldn’t help but draw this hilarious gold mine that someone made  Its pretty sketchy and lazy but I needed this. I was pretty upset so arrogant Skye cheered me up. I’m sorry I don’t know who the original person who made it but if anyone finds the source please let me know!

Precious Gems - Agate/Skye

unseen-beneath-the-trees

Oak Tree Town was a place the man seemed to visit often for no particular reason other than the fact that it was close to home.  That, and it was heavily forested, making it easy for him to hide in the dead of night.

Though every so often there was a reason for Skye to come out of the shadows, and tonight that reason came in the form of a young woman who was wandering around by herself.

“Goodness... Miss, don’t you think it’s far too late to be walking around out here alone ♥?”

Late Night Wanderings - Johnny/Skye

“That mansion...” Skye mumbled to himself, roaming the dark forests outside of Oak Tree Town in the dead of the night.  Though the man had been to this particular town before, he had never stopped to try to break into the large mansion that was practically calling his name.  

As he walked in circles, the thief brainstormed ideas of how he could steal from a mansion that had so many people tending to it.  Skye mumbled to himself, assuming that nobody was there to hear him speak.  Though as he kicked a rock onto the dirt path ahead of him, he watched as it hit the foot of another person who had approached.

“Oh... !  Good... Good evening, Sir ♪!”

It was the middle of the night when Skye walked to the back of a shop, hoping to climb through a window unnoticed.  To his knowledge, no women lived in the building, so it would have been useless to have left a letter.  Better to just get what he wanted to steal and leave.

Prying open the back window, the man suddenly froze upon hearing the sound of someone walking nearby.  Had he been too loud?  With nowhere to hide, Skye simply froze, hoping that the darkness would conceal him and the stranger would pass him by.

What a tragic waste it is, spending your whole life waiting for it to end.

Late Nights } Selphy/Skye

   the-midnight-skye 

[runearchives-blog-blog]

  With the summer nights just beginning, the days were longer, and as a result, Selphy was more likely to lose track of time. Finally looking up from the novel her nose had been buried in, sapphire eyes widened in surprise as she’d finally noticed the lack of natural light in the Archives. 

  “Drats!” She had forgotten dinner once again, but that hadn’t worried her as much as the fact that now she’d have to close down and wait until tomorrow to find out if the Great Detective would find the thief. Of course, Selphy already knew it was the store owner responsible for her own robberies – but, she was exited nevertheless. 

   However… if she simply stayed up in the Archives reading, then she could finish her book – and of course, open the Archives in a timely manner. 

[the-midnight-skye]

Trampoli was a town that seemed to have nothing.  It was a small town, full of small shops and farm land and not much else.  Of course there was a member of the De Sainte Coquille family in town, but that break-in was being saved for the last night that he was in town.

Having heard of a treasure that was kept in a small house in the town, Skye set that as his destination for the night.  Travelling up to the small building, it was late into the night when he peered through the window and into the dark room.  Unable to see much, he decided to just head inside and see what he could find.

And what he found was a girl with a book, sitting among many other books.  Although the literature was not much of a treasure to the young man, he focused his attention on the other person instead.  “Good evening... ♥”

Stealing from the Wrong Place - Frey/Skye

[unafreyed]

Frey should’ve known that the man was going to run. After all, he was a thief – and all thieves were sneaky little rats. 

Unfortunately, she didn’t think of the possibility until it was too late, and while he began to climb out the window all she could do was stare in open-mouthed shock. Of course, this didn’t mean she wasn’t going to chase after him – only that she’d allowed him to get a head start. She could, without a doubt, close the gap in no time if she ran fast enough.

With this in mind, Frey, like any sensible person would, ran out the front door to ensure that he wouldn’t get away. Looking around wildly, she spotted a mess of silver hair not too far away and began sprinting towards him in a blur of fury.

“You come back here, you coward! Come back and face the consequences of your horrible, horrible actions!”

[the-midnight-skye]

Living in a cabin in the woods suddenly became very convenient, as Skye was able to dart through trees in an attempt to lose the princess that was chasing after him.  “What a shame!  Being chased by such a lovely lady would be any man’s dream!” He yelled as he ran, laughing in an attempt to make the dire situation light.

“You already got back what I stole!  What else could you possibly want from me, Princess~?”  He asked, still keeping up the pace as he looked back at the girl chasing him.  “This thief isn’t quite ready to die!”

As he ran, he did not pay enough attention to where he was going, and although he knew the forest well, he did not know it well enough to run through it blindly.  It did not take much longer before he suddenly tripped on the root of a tree, falling face forward as he skid through the dirt. 

“Sh... Shit,” the man mumbled to himself, hoping to scramble to his feet before his pursuer caught up to him.

A Prince and a “Prince” - Arthur/Skye

[transientvisions]

Arthur frowned at the annoyed expression that the other man gave him. It seemed like he was trying to cover it up at least, but Arthur wasn’t exactly a fan of being annoyed at for telling someone they couldn’t be in his office in the middle of the night.

“Ah… You would be incorrect in that. The restaurant closes at night and this is also…the incorrect entrance,” he said, keeping a neutral expression. He leaned forward a bit to examine the stranger closely. Something in his memory was struggling to get his attention, but he couldn’t quite grasp it. To be fair, it was late and there was someone in his office acting odd.

Arthur glanced at the door that he was sure did not open while he was working before returning his attention back to the man. “…May I also ask how you found your way in here?”

[the-midnight-skye]

As the man leaned closer towards him, Skye leaned away, not wanting the stranger to get a good look at his face.  The princess had most likely alerted the town of his presence, so if the man figured out who he was, he would definitely be in a lot of trouble.

“Oh... ?  This isn’t the restaurant entrance?”  He feigned innocence, looking around as if the place did not look like an office instead of a diner.  “My apologies. ♥”

Unable to simply tell the man that he had come in through a window, Skye continued his lie, walking towards the door and gesturing towards it.  “Why through the unlocked door of course.  Did you not hear me come in~?”

Skye/Molly

[Blinks slowly, taking in her surroundings and realizing she definitely passed the Inn.]

Well…[She begins, tapping her chin with her free hand as she thinks about his question: why was she out so late?] …oh! You see, I was at the bar, and I sort of lost track of the time. The next thing I knew, the bartender said they were closing. So I was going back towards the Inn but…[Tucks a lock of hair behind her ear before switching the bottle in hand to the other] I’m not from around here so I kind of lost my way.

[the-midnight-skye]

[His smile only grows as the woman speaks, looking from her and to the bottle in her hand as he is able to put all the pieces together] Well, Miss... if you came from Blue Bar, and wanted to go towards the Inn... I’m afraid you passed it.

Come... [He put his arm around the stranger’s shoulders, turning her in the direction of the Inn and beginning to walk towards it] You’re going to want to go this way. ♥

(not really) princes || skye & will

    Regis and Sabrina had decided to leave the Islands for a business trip that didn’t involve him. Unfortunately, Will found himself with double the work as he managed not only his paperwork sent by his father, but also the local mining business. All the work had drove him to sacrifice his beauty sleep in order to finish the business. 

    He had stationed himself in his room, working tirelessly into the night. As he reached over to his mug– realizing that he was out of coffee. Will had told himself he was going to finish all the work by tonight… so it was inevitable, another coffee it was… Will draped a sweater over his shoulders and made his way out of his room into the open cabin area of his yacht with a lazy yawn.

    Tiredly fiddling with the coffee grinder, a quick chill shot through his body. Quickly, Will turned around and eyes scanned over his dim surroundings. …Maybe he was hallucinating? There was no way something could’ve came in.. A cat, maybe? …Not a person, right?

    Not one to take chances, Will dashed over to the lights and switched them on, and found….

    ….“Can… I help you…?" Great

[the-midnight-skye]

These days Skye found himself travelling to more and more places in an attempt to steal from more and more people.  He had been meaning to visit the Sunshine Islands for quite some time, and so he had arrived in town early that morning in an attempt to figure out what he could possibly claim as his own.

Word had it that an incredibly wealthy family lived on these islands, and Skye was determined to find them.  When wealth was involved, he would not bother to leave a note, knowing that he had to take these jobs more seriously.

Once night had finally fallen, the man made his way to the large house and climbed through a window that had carelessly been left open.  “Well isn’t this my lucky day... ♪“ It did not even look like anyone was home.

Though it seemed like he was wrong.  As Skye made his way into the kitchen, he noticed a figure standing there.  A figure that noticed him before he got a chance to sneak away.

“Yes... I’m here to steal from you... and I’d appreciate it if you made this easy for me. ♥”  Straight to the point.  There was no sense in trying to hide the real reason why he was there, especially since he was dealing with a man instead of a woman.  Magic would not get him out of this one.

[the-midnight-skye]

Stealing from the Wrong Place - Frey/Skye

[unafreyed]

Frey stopped momentarily to watch as the thief stalked across the room. To her surprise he complied with her demand, picking up a bag of sorts and thrusting it into her possession a few moments afterwards. Peering into the bag, she found that everything Volkanon had reported missing was inside, and intact.

It seemed like he was at least kind enough to have left her belongings alone. Or rather, it seemed like he had not yet gotten the chance to swap them in for gold. 

Yes, that was a much more probable explanation. 

Flashing him a petulant frown, Frey brushed the dirt off her dress and huffed. “I guess everything’s here…” she said, allowing herself to march towards the thief and circle around him in a display of suspicion. Her brows knit together as she inspected his person, fighting the urge not to punch his pretty little face once more. However, her seriousness melted away for a brief period when he suggested that she get out of his house.

“Me? Leave you alone so you might steal again?” Frey laughed, putting her hands on her hips. “As if! You’re coming with me back to Selphia, where you’ll be tried and- and-” She paused for a moment, trying to think of the right word to use.

“-And hanged! That’s right, hanged! Don’t think you’re getting away with stealing from my town so easily!”

[the-midnight-skye]

Of course Skye had planned to sell his new treasures at the first chance he had, but given that he had just stolen them that night, that chance had not quite come.  Oh well.  It seemed like that was a blessing in disguise.

Watching as the princess walked around him, Skye could only roll his eyes, waiting for her to get her fill.  “Goodness, Princess... I know I’m beautiful, but no need to stare.”  He spoke in the same tone he usually used to flirt, but the underlying bitterness was evident.

“Oh come on!  I gave you this stuff back, so-”  Before the man could finish his response, Skye cut himself off once the princess finished her own statement.  Well that was his cue to run.

“Yeah... sorry but that’s not happening!”  He walked towards the window, climbing on the windowsill and preparing himself to jump out.  “This thief’s not quite done with what he started. ♥” 

Skye waved to the woman before jumping out the first storey window and onto the grown below, completely ignoring the door that was only a few feet away.
