"Well certainly that would be a delight, would it not?" Diana asked, smiling at him, only a hint of fire behind her eyes. A blink and you'd miss it kind of fire, reserved only for him. Around everyone else, Diana at least let a bit of her own personality show. But around Zayn? She couldn't risk showing him even a fraction of herself.

She'd hoped by now he'd have gotten bored and left her alone, but unfortunately that was not the case. "I'm so sorry, I'm not sure to what you are referring." Maybe the halo was non-existent, but could he see the devil horns? Had he ever actually seen anything, or was this whole chase based on suspicion alone? How much did he really know? She could never find out without revealing too much of herself. Something, of course, she was never willing to do. "Who's to say I can't enjoy the festivities in your presence? I do quite enjoy your company Zayn. Do you not enjoy mine?"

THE AUDACITY WHICH SHE behaved had to be one of the most grating things about her ⸺ if not the most infuriating, the man found himself clenching his jaw, not bothering to suppress the roll of his eyes he huffed, before he leaned close to her.

“the only thing i’d enjoy, is putting a stake through that dead heart of yours. “ the snarl that left him was angry and for a second he didn’t recognize himself, in fact the conviction in which the words were uttered made him pull back and he shook his head. unsure of how to proceed it’s not like they could have a beatdown in the middle of a crowd ⸺ well they could, but that would be ‘ uncouth ‘ and he was raised well. “ you do the math, princess. “

"I'm extremely likeable. Not sure where you heard otherwise." Lawrence had been talking down to the kid, literally. Finally, he took a seat on the blanket next to him, hand digging into a bag of nearby popcorn. He didn't indulge in human food all that often, much preferring the liquid diet. But he'd been thinking too much about his hunger lately, and eating something at least helped to keep those thoughts at bay.

"If you're trying to get me to ask you on a mall date, you're going to have to try a little harder. Besides, I'm spoken for," he said, placing a hand to his chest. "And yeah, Twilight, I think that's one of the shirts, too." He popped another handful of popcorn into his mouth and tilted his head toward the sky. "Alright, kid. Give me some star facts or whatever. I know you've been dying to."

[tribidscrsed]

“ AH RIGHT MUST HAVE missed the memo hidden underneath all the threats of ‘ certain death ‘ every third business day. “ the boy countered with a scrunch of his nose, reaching for a bag of grape sour patch kids, theodore popped more than a few into his mouth. making his bites exaggerated for a brief moment before he spoke again. “ oh you wish i’d ask you out… but you couldn’t possibly handle all of THIS. “ he gestured towards himself with a wiggle of his brows.

“besides i don’t want to embarrass your fetus. “ and that observation came with a wink, before his line of sight focused on the night sky that covered them. “okay edward cullen, i’ll give you some information to woo bella. “ was he mocking? absolutely. “ you see that blueish looking star… “ he pointed towards it. “ that’s actually called a straggler star. “they tend to stay towards the middle, the closer they get to the edge, the redder they turn. “

TIMOTHÉE CHALAMET call me with timothée chalamet by apple TV+ ad ( january 20th, 2023)

His smile, one that had been plastered on his face in her company pretty much for the entire evening, disappeared in that moment. "And by Casper you mean the like the ancient entity terrorizing the village?" His hands clenched, knuckles quickly turning white. He stretched out his fingers, letting the tension escape. "When did this happen? How do you know?" He asked, trying to work his way through the problem. What could he do, how could he protect her from an ancient evil? Did he even need to?

"That sounds pretty good right about now, actually," Laurie commented, trying to keep the mood light. "How about that guy? He looks pretty flammable?"

[tribidscrsed]

BLUE EYES SOFTENED AS a sense of guilt sunk in, the last thing she wanted was have him worry about her. “hey… “ her voice was soft, gentle as a hand came to rest on the side of his face so he’d look at her. but it was his line of questions that made her sigh. “ the night of the blackout, you were sleeping and something visited ⸺ a flash of blue… but NOTHING happened. “ the re-cap felt a little over kill. “ and then it told me, well it tried to percy jackson me first. “

silence fell between them, her fingers lacing through his clenched fists. “ look at me, i’m FINE. “ she assured him with a faint smile. the lingering knowledge that maybe she wouldn’t have been had ‘ it ‘ accepted her bargain did eat at her but that wasn’t something she’d share, for now. “ still in one piece and with you. “ that was as much reassurance that she could give. “and it’s gone ⸺ elijah is back to himself and we’re here, together. “ inching closer to him she leaned her forehead against his. “ let’s focus on that, we should focus on that. “

Zayn: The Catcher in the Rye, Jane Eyre

The Catcher in the Rye: Has your muse ever misjudged someone? Did they ever realize they had done so? What did they do to make amends?

WOULD THE ENTIRE SUPERNATURAL population count? after his grandfather was killed and his life turned upside down, the man has had nothing but resentment for each and every single ' gifted ' person he comes across and he isn't shy about letting others see that. his view of vampires especially is very black and white and he's yet to find a way to realize that not every single one of them is as terrible as he wants to convince himself that they are, but what better place than new orleans to finally learn that much needed lesson no?

Jane Eyre: Has your muse ever experienced rejection, abuse, or abandonment at the hands of a loved one? How did they cope with the betrayal?

HIS PARENTS LEFT HIM when he was born, but his grandparents took him in so that is an ' abandonment ' he ever really had to reckon with, because he was LOVED, his grandparents were as far as he's concerned the only parents he's ever known or needed. he holds them on a pedestal and their memory is something he still clutches tightly to his chest. that said, he does resent the fact that they have passed, he's hurt and he feels more alone than he's ever been willing to vocalize to anyone.

[tribidscrsed]

Theo: One Hundred Years of Solitude, Frankenstein

One Hundred Years of Solitude: Has your muse ever experienced isolation from others, whether physically or emotionally? Why were they subjected to this? Did they inflict the seclusion upon themselves, or did external circumstances force it upon them? How has it affected them?

THEODORE"S BRAIN S WIRED SO specifically, that it's hard not to find himself lost in all the big thoughts that inhabit it. he doesn't mean to self isolate nor does he mean to shut others out but it does happen from time to time. he uses his intelligence as a shield, it is after all the one weapon he brings to the table when it comes to a fight. but perhaps the most notable external circumstance that proved to isolate him was his academic endeavors he was 15 when he finished high school and by 16 he was starting his first degree at MIT. so being alone at such a young age, made him very independent, it's not a ' lone wolf ' situation as he does have his family and he adores his parents dearly ⸺ but he has had to LEARN to advocate for himself, and it's not his strong suit, because he swallows many of his observations and spends too much time weighting the cause and effects of everything he does, which often leads to him being too slow to action, and therefore he gets left behind which is in itself another form of self inflicted isolation, even if not intentional.

Frankenstein: Has your muse ever allowed their ambition to lead them down the wrong path? What happened?

ABSOLUTELY, HE HAS BIG PLANS for his future and he isn't shy about his ambitions and passions, his own arrogance and confidence in his intelligence has lead him to dabble in shady dealings with the supernatural, that have 100% not ended well ⸺ ergo his abrupt return home, but that's not a door he's ready to open or dig deeper into... yet.

[tribidscrsed]

Hope: The Scarlet Letter, Pride and Prejudice

The Scarlet Letter: Has your muse struggled to shape their identity apart from harmful societal labels? Did they ever choose to “go with the flow” and conform to these labels, or did they fight back?

HER FAMILY HAS A HEAVY HISTORY, drenched in blood and violence and a never ending quest for power and that is a legacy that hope doesn't hide from, because with the dark stains on the mikaelson name, comes the promise of never wavering or ending love. hope has never known anyone more capable of TRUE love than every single member of her family and she shares that capacity as well, she is very able to love someone for EVERYTHING they are dark and light and it seeps into every single relationship that she's ever had or will have. that said, she is very adamant about forging her OWN path, she wants to be more than just the product of her family legacy, with the right to make her own mistakes and choices ⸺ in other words, she'd like to have both, her sense of family and her individuality, not an easy task to accomplish but it's one that she thinks she's maneuvering pretty well, at least on most days.

Pride and Prejudice: Has your muse ever allowed their pride to get in their way? Have they ever been too proud to accept or pursue something they secretly wanted?

OH ALL THE TIME, if there is one sin that defines hope it's PRIDE it practically exudes from her every pore. which is why more times than not, the girl is very much the one who breaks her own heart instead of allowing anyone else that honor. it's something that she's learning to change but it's a work in progress and while she's not entirely there yet, she had at least opened herself up to the possibility of having a TRUE partner, someone she runs to and who doesn't expect her to hold the weight of the world on her shoulders, not that she won't forget from time to time, but that's a conversation for another time.

When the tribrid pulled her into a hug, her arms snaked around her instinctively, holding her equally as tight. Her friend's words almost made her tear up. Thinking about her own mistakes, her own guilt made her want to tear everything apart, made her feel feral in a way that she couldn't understand, didn't want to understand.

She pulled away from Hope, looking at her with a small smile and a shrug. Talking about the trigger would get easier eventually, but it still grated on her. Still, she saw the girl's face in her mind, thought about her family. Were they still looking for her? Had they already resigned themselves to the fate that Kaya had solidified? Licking her bottom lip, she tried to shake the thoughts from her brain and focus on the conversation.

"Hey, listen," Kaya started, tilting her head slightly to the side. "This is nothing, okay. You're my best friend, this doesn't change that. I should have—well, I should have apologized sooner. About the masquerade. I didn't mean to hurt you." The hellhound glanced down at her hands, avoiding Hope's eyes. "I never mean to hurt anyone, actually. It just kind of keeps happening," she said, a dry laugh leaving her lips with words she didn't mean to say aloud. Lately it seemed even harder than usual to moderate herself. All her thoughts just tumbled out in rapid succession before she could help it.

Kaya swallowed thickly before her brown eyes met Hope's blue ones once more. "Actually there is something I was hoping you could help me with."

[tribidscrsed]

THE BRUNETTE'S REASSURING WORDS were enough to make her stomach settle, even if said affirmations still felt like they were undeserved, but had that not been a theme for her lately? from ingrid, to laurie and now kaya? why was everyone around her so determined to give her the benefit of the doubt, when she herself wasn't sure she could? more to add to that future case study she was sure she'd end up being a part of some day. still hope held on tight, the blue of her eyes met the dark of hers and she couldn't help but smile, even if it was faint. " you're my BEST FRIEND too. " she affirmed with a nod. " and don't apologize, you had to TAKE it out on somebody. " some how she had to admit that kaya feeling like she could vent her frustrations onto her made everything that happened worth it. " maybe there's some twisted hidden lesson in all of this, that we'll laugh about year later. " because that was one way to look at it. " but for the record, i'm sorry too ⸺ i shouldn't have hurt you. " that much she could admit, because the truth still stood it had been intentional, hope had far better control of her powers, more experience with them and that was something she should have been able to remember even with her tendency to let her ' hot headed ' nature win. " i love you, you know that right? " and with that final affirmation, her brows furrowed concern filling her features before she nodded. " anything, name it. "

[cxrsedmuse]

Her eyes narrowed at the hunter who haunted her dreams and forced her around the world in seek of some sort of refuge. For only a split second she looked at him with a bit of anger, before her gaze softened and a smile split across her face. If she'd learned anything from growing up among rich gossips, it was that killing with kindness was the best way to engage with enemies.

She batted her eyelashes at his compliment, ever demure in his presence. Never would she let him see the dark side of her personality, the vampiric nature that stirred just below the surface. "Oh, please. I would never harm anyone at such a lovely event. And ruin the hard work that all these nice people put into it?" She placed a hand to her chest, like the sheer audacity of his comment caused her pain.

[tribidscrsed]

“ RIGHT AND NEXT up we’ll see santa flying through with his sleigh led by rudoloph. “ did being so mistrusting get him anywhere? no, but it also kept him from letting his guard down around what he’d come to be the live incarnation of satan, but that was a conversation for another time.

“ i see right through that fake little halo of yours darlin, remember that. “ he warned her with a scowl, his untouched drink lifting upwards and towards her in a faux ‘ cheers ‘ notion. she’d find a way to make sure whatever was happening here bit everyone participating in the ass, and she’d manage to walk away scotch free ⸺ it was an MO he’d come to know well. “but hey in the meantime do enjoy the festivities, don’t let me stop ya. “

[rumblcs]

" you sound terribly paranoid, " they muse with a dismissive wave of her hand. though the faintest touch of a smirk twitched on her lips for a moment. it was laced. nothing any human should have a problem with. " people can't be kind without some sort of nefarious motive, huh ? " benni watched as he took the cup from their hand, trying to not be too overt that there indeed was something besides just coke in its contents. they weren't in the business of killing vampires, just wanted to be aware of who around them was dangerous.

maybe not a full fledged plan considering who knew what said vampire would to once ingesting the vervain. they were in public though, that made her feel some sort of security whether or not it should have. he had no reaction, drank the liquid as if it was nothing but soda. she could feel her shoulders relax once taking the cup back from the man. " i stashed my bag around here somewhere, i've got like three cans. just gotta remember where i put that. " especially because coke wasn't the only thing in the bag. their narrowed eyes scan the few trees around them. " you can keep this though if you want it, " she replies offering her cup once more.

[tribidscrsed]

“ WHAT CAN I SAY? life’s tough, we should all be wearing helmets. “ the man joked with a snort. the hand holding onto the cup he’d been offered, swirled it around. “ besides wouldn’t appearing trustworthy be the exact way for you to ‘ get me? ‘tsk, tsk, i’m on to you. “ he stated with a playful tilt of his chin. “ how very wicked witch of the west of you. “ he deadpanned with a roll of his shoulders, listening to her he nodded.

“ want any help finding it? “ the girl was familiar to him, not an acquaintance per say but he knew enough about his target to pin point the ‘ friends ‘ and ‘ others ‘ she surrounded herself with ⸺ that is if said target was actually capable of making any real connections. “ only way i’ll take this very GENEROUS gift.. without offering something else in return. “

Beau laughed as she elbowed him. “Ah man, I dunno you’re probably a bigger nerd than I am. But that’s okay, I can take the hit to my social status.” He assured her, leaning his head on hers. “Hey now… you know how many pups are abandoned in the swamps this time of year? I’m a busy guy in high demand. Puppy whisperer and all that. Should ask Laurie if he needs a friend. There’s 12 new pups at the shelter as of this morning and by tomorrow there’s gonna be at least four more.” He sighed. “But I missed you too, you butthead. Hows Prince Charming? Still sweeping you off your feet? Is it still that term if he’s using your own broom?”

[tribidscrsed]

" WHATEVER LETS YOU SLEEP AT night beauregard. " the tribrid teased with a light squeeze of his arm, leaning into her best friend a sigh did slip past her lips. life always felt so much easier when beau was around ⸺ like some how the weight of the world on her shoulders wasn't as hard to manage, a feeling not many inspired in the tribid if ever. " basically what i'm hearing is that i'm less INTERESTING than a bunch of dogs? all right fine, remember that, next time i leave you to drink alone. " she mused with a shake of her head. " any recommendations on finding myself a new best man? i'd need them house trained of course, and you're the expert. " " laurie always needs friends, if not for any other reason than my own entertainment. " watching him interact with the many many people that came included in her life, always proved to be an exciting way to kill twenty minutes at least until she decided it was time that his attention focused on her again, a phenomenon that seemed mutual between them. " are you asking because you want DETAILS? trust me, i can get very specific about just how much ' prince charming ' has managed to blow my mind ⸺ you should try learning from him, maybe then you'll finally become a real boy, toad. "
