Questions| Theodore and Daisy

“It’s gone,” he quickly added, fingers touching his shoulder, rolling the fabric down. There was still a reddish mark where was the wound, but only that — a proof of once a serious injury. “Almost gone. I would guess she has an identical one on herself.” It worried him that it worried her. Daisy was supposed to understand the spell— a curse?— but watching her Theo realized she did not as much as he hoped. “What happens to me happens to her, and the other way around. So it’s fun— trying not to get shot or stabbed and all— being a hunter does not help, not in the slightest.. I think your spell chose a wrong person, Daisy.”

She looked quickly over the wound putting her hand on it. She could feel the magic there and it caused a low sigh to come out of her. 

“No. It didn’t. That I’m sure of, but this is worrisome. I will try to figure out exactly what’s going on, but I don’t know how to break this yet. So the best course of action is to keep you from getting stabbed. If you get injured I will heal you, call me if it happens.”

Marco quickly dropped the facade as soon as his back was too the stranger. ❝I fine. I mean, I’ve been better but, ya know, I really don’t feel like getting in a fight tonight.❞ He replied, giving her arm a grateful little pat. ❝It’s  alright, don’t sweat it. I think he’s only trailing me because got kicked out of my work earlier. Drunken perv.❞

[zhao-daisy-blog]

“No problem, and I’ve dealt with that before myself.” She looked up at the boy the scar’s on her face just glinting in the street lights. She wasn’t exactly known for not getting into fights. 

“Just be careful around here.” Tartarus wasn’t known for being a pleasant place, the mouth of hell wasn’t exactly the place for making friends.

Marco smiled at he woman. It was probably forced looking, but a smile never the less.  ❝ What? You don’t remember? We met at the thing at that one place?❞ And then as added as quickly  and quietly as he could  ❝ There’s someone following me and I really don’t feel like getting in a fight, so walk with me.❞ He gave the other a look over before throwing in a  ❝ please ❞ in  for good measure.

She listened for a second and sighed hooking his arm better into his. “Oh - now I see it how are you?” The sound of her voice was happy but her face was neutral. After all they couldn’t see it. 

“Sorry I didn’t see it before.”

Questions| Theodore and Daisy

“I don’t really have much questions, if to be completely honest with you,” shrugged he, standing calmly, observing her features. They did look alike, he could see it now in the broad daylight. “It’s probably even better for me to not know, in case things go bad.” 

With hands in his pockets and a nod for her to come with he began to walk, a few extra thoughts on his mind. “Though, was meaning to ask— she shot me, and got injured exactly like that too— was that a part of your plan or just a side affect? You know I can’t go around my usual day without being paranoid about her getting the same cuts on her fingers at the least.”

[zhao-daisy-blog]

“Understood. Although I’ll be honest here, you won’t get many more opportunities.” Daisy after all wasn’t making this offer often. Looking up at him at the story her eyebrows furrowed. 

“What are you talking about? That shouldn’t - let me see where it is.” Her face was serious in and blank. As if she didn’t care, but her voice went up with the question. 

“I need to see.” 

[lucymeadowes]

Lucy was so engrossed with the world past the door, her usually playful grin firm on her lips as she waited, half in love with the anxiety in the game she’d begun. But as the woman spoke, all of it fell away, her blood going cold for a moment as she turned to face the woman who, with her luck, would be her tutor. 

“Tutor? Well I’ll have you know–” Lucy began, ready to argue her stance until her eyes met the woman’s, voice falling to nothing as a wave of familiarity hit her. What had Kai said her name was? She was grasping for it, and Lucy wondered if she’d even been told at all. Still, there was no way she could have known the woman. She remembered every foster family she’d ever had and Lucy never stayed long to form relationships. If she’d known this woman, she would have remembered. She’d have to. 

But she still couldn’t shake it, the way something deep inside her pulled to the woman like a moth to flame. 

“Lucy. It’s Lucy.” 

[zhao-daisy-blog]

Daisy didn’t look at her daughter’s eyes for a second. Scared to see something in it that - well she didn’t want too. She couldn’t stand to see her daughter look at her like a stranger. At the same time she couldn’t see anger or hate there. 

Not in her May. Still she was pulled towards her daughter. She wanted to wrap her arms around her and smile. Quickly - just a glance towards her face and her heart melted. She was beautiful and whole. Something Daisy couldn’t give her. 

Still the name stung her throat as she said, “Lucy then. I’m your tutor. I assume I wasn’t the only one late for the meeting.” 

[bamblno-blog]

There was no question that someone had been following Marco. From the moment he’d stepped out of Bloody Mary he could hear footsteps trailing not too far behind. He didn’t dare look behind him but instead came up with a plan.

❝ Hey, love! ❞ He called to the nearest stranger, linking their arms together. It was all going to be a show until he was sure the coast was clear. ❝ I haven’t seen you in forever, how’s it  going? ❞

[zhao-daisy-blog]

Daisy stiffened at the boy’s touch. After all she was just walking home. She didn’t know the boy and it took most of her self control not to push him off.

“Do I know you?” She muttered under her breath. 

[lucymeadowes]

@zhao-daisy

A tutor. That’s actually what they’d told her. She was getting a tutor. They might as well have just thrown her in anger management classes, honestly. Had they really expected her to show? Instead, Lucy found herself strolling around Lazarus, careful to stay unseen from the security guards put on the prowl for her. 

There was only so long she could go, though, before she caught someone’s eye and once she heard the voices heading her way, Luce took off, fighting past a group of guards and around the hall until he feet were moving so fast she was certain she was flying. And then thud, she hit a brick wall. Or rather, a person who seemed equally shocked. 

“Sorry! Sorry! Can you just – oh God, alright, just shove in here.” She ordered, head turned back to eye the sound of approaching footsteps as she blindly pushed the woman into a nearby closet, following after her. “Alright, okay, just stay seriously quiet and I’ll give you anything you want, okay? Just nothin’ freaky.” Lucy finished, crouching in the dark closet as she watched the light under the door, noting the shadows passing them.

[zhao-daisy-blog]

Daisy hadn’t expected the island to be like this, so confusing and troubling. Still she got to the place, and she was going to see May - Lucy. She went by Lucy now. 

She wanted just to tell her that she was her mother, but she didn’t know how to. It hurt - but she’d just be the tutor. She could do that. She really could. However suddenly something rammed into her - someone more accurately. Then she was being pulled by a smaller figure.

When she heard her voice her heart skipped a beat which allowed May to push her into the closet. Still she stayed quiet mostly out of shock. 

Her daughter was right in front of her and Daisy didn’t know what to do. 

“Miss Meadowes I take it?” She said softly trying to confirm.

Questions| Theodore and Daisy

Daisy’s hand thudded against the table to a rhythm that didn’t make any musical sense. It was a habit one that the woman couldn’t stifle. Although they were clean now her hands still felt unclean. Still the pain that always racked her body lately was lessening. The stupid dress was off her shoulders and replaced with a t-shirt and jeans. Something she hadn’t been allowed to wear for years it seemed.  Her mind coming back into focus she looked at the young man across from her.

“You have questions I’m assuming? I’m not sure if I want to answer them, but you can try me.” 

After all she was still uncertain on how much she wanted to tell. She ran away from her past, she didn’t revel in it. The only thing she particularly wanted to do now was to see her daughter.
