“So, I assume you’re not gonna tell me who’s back there huh?” she asked, the question mostly rhetorical. “Guess we’ll find out soon enough.”

Chandra had kept the full weight of her arm around the man’s shoulders. Intimidation was always the best part of these little missions she took upon herself. She hummed quietly, blissfully unaware of the impending danger until the very obvious writhing tendrils crawled from the hooded figure. Her heart rate spiked and as she shoved the man aside and charged towards them, she hoped to gods that it wasn’t who she thought it was.

Still, she channeled her mana, flames engulfing her hands and forearms, her eyes taking on a fiery red color.

I’ve always imagined Chandra’s hair didn’t always just ignite in a flash. It transitions. Lifting and glowing, seamlessly turning to flame.

Chandra rolled her eyes, this guy’s attitude immediately got on her nerves. Much to her dismay, he seemed to just be a normal guy going about his business. Chandra was just about to let him go when he suddenly froze mid-stride. She furrowed her brow, stepping to the side to get a look at him. Barely concealed panic and fear were painted on his face.

She adjusted her posture, straightening her shoulders and folding her arms against her chest. She tapped her foot to appear impatient, but very carefully looked into the alley through her peripheral vision. All she could make out was a dark silhouette in the shadows of the back street. Chandra smiled, and here she thought this was a useless venture.

“Why don’t you take me to your ‘business partner’? They seem to be right over there.” She placed her arm around the man’s shoulders, channeling a small amount of mana into her hand to make the heat noticeable to him. “Seems like we have some business to discuss.”

Her hand gripped his shoulder tightly and she started walking, pulling him along with her as casually as she could.

Chandra sighed impatiently, her eyes flickering over the crowd in a half-assed attempt to do her assigned “job” that day. She pursed her lips, thinking back on the conversation she’d had with Jace earlier.

“You’re part of the brawn, I’m the brain.” his snarky smile still lit a small fire in Chandra’s temper. Some habits are hard to break. “It’s called the Gatewatch for a reason, right? Keep a look out for anyone suspicious, spies will be rampant. All eyes are on us now.”

She begrudgingly listened to him outline the plan and what she was to do. She really wanted to bite back with a snide comment, but for the sake of getting this over with quicker she kept her mouth shut. 

“If you find anybody you think is suspicious, bring them here. Don’t try to handle it yourself. It could be nothing, but it also could be more danger than you could handle on your own. Just don’t take the chance.”

Just as she was about to roll her eyes into the next plane she noticed someone shuffling about in the crowd. He looked stiff, and if Chandra’s observations were correct, it looked like he flinched just slightly before pulling out a scroll to appear busy. She decided to trust her gut on this one, even if it wasn’t a spy, it would give her a break from the monotony of people-watching all day.   

She walked over, placing a firm hand on his shoulder. She spoke in a calm, but authoritative voice.  “You look a little lost, what business do you have here?”

Vraska stood in the alleyway, arms folded and leaning against the stone. In one hand she absently fiddled with a small trinket, a charm made of bone and chitin given to her by the kraul shaman Mazirek. From behind her hood and veil, her eyes fixated on a man in the street. This man in turn focused on the large building before him, and consistently reminded himself not to turn back and glance at the gorgon watching him. 

The office of the Guildpact was always busy, whether Jace was actually there or not. Vraska had taken advantage of his last few absences by continuing her killing of Azorius arbiters, but now, she believed that the mind mage had returned. She assumed that no one would notice another observer among the scores of people filtering through the area. 

And if someone did notice, one of her agents being discovered was better than Vraska herself.

“Look busy,” she hissed. Mind magic was not her own ability, but her spy had established a quick mental link before making his way into the crowd. “Don’t just stand there. Look like you belong, fool.”

The spy appeared to busy himself, pretending to read from a set of scrolls that he produced from a satchel. Vraska stepped away from the wall, tilting her head to the side. The closer her spy got to the hall of the Guildpact, the less she could actually see him. 

“If you are discovered,” she let the pause linger long enough to drive her point. “Run.”

“locked in a room” starters

The “locked in a room” trope forces characters to spend time together, often characters who normally wouldn’t. It can help them learn about each other and develop their relationship in a positive way, or it can be disastrous. Feel free to add more! Send one for our muses: 

♬ : stuck in an elevator together ✎ : trapped in a room together during a quarantine ✘ : in a waiting room while they have loved ones in surgery ♢ : alone in a train car when the train gets delayed ♕ : adrift in a life raft ☾ : sitting next to each other on an international flight ✂ : stranded by a roadside together ☀ : sharing a jail cell ☂ : stuck in a basement after an earthquake ☮ : sharing a run away hot air balloon ❤ : locked in a closet by a friend who just wants them to get along (or possibly hook up) ₪ : touring an historical (possibly haunted) building, and they get locked in overnight ☹ : on a bridge; traffic has stopped completely due to an accident, and nobody’s going anywhere for a few hours. Δ : stuck on a roof together ♒ : trapped by a spell or supernatural object (bonus points if you specify what the spell/curse is) ஐ : pretending to be married because this quaint old couple’s bed and breakfast is the only shelter for miles, they only have one room, and they’re a bit old fashioned. ♘ : sharing a hospital room ✿ : stuck in a spaceship escape pod together ☢  : on a deserted island ❂  : in a bunker after the apocalypse

I am an impulsive roleplayer.

I let my muse take the reins and decide what threads to start or reply to in a given day. If the muse doesn’t feel it, it isn’t happening. That doesn’t mean that I hate you or that I no longer want to interact with you; I probably either lost our thread or my muse just said, ‘nah bro.’

I’m sorry I drop threads. I’m sorry I don’t reply to memes. I’m sorry I ignore my asks. I’m sorry I plot things and then don’t do them. I’m an impulsive roleplayer: my muse guides me.

Roleplaying isn’t my job: it’s my hobby. I do it for fun. My muse isn’t my coworker: my muse is my friend. We have fun together. If I started treating this as a job, it wouldn’t be enjoyable for me anymore, and the quality of my content would diminish greatly!

And while we’re on the subject, just because a thread gets dropped does not mean the relationship between our muses is dead!! Thread =/= relationship! We can start something new and continue building their bond! Relationships are important to building new aspects of our muses!

I always want to roleplay with you. Just…perhaps not with that thread. You feel?

21, 25, 27, 35. For my information.

She bared her teeth in annoyance. “You’re lucky I’m bound to answer these, gorgon.” What is one of your character’s biggest fears? How would they react when dealing with this fear? Losing my powers and therefore, relinquishing my freedom as a walker. I have no idea how I would react to that as I have not entertained the thought a terrible amount.

Is there something traumatic from your character’s past that greatly affects them even to this day? I’d like to think that I’ve moved on from my past almost entirely. 

If your character was going to get arrested, what would be the most likely reason for it? Well that would just be a typical Saturday.

Is your character afraid of death? If they got to choose how to die, how would they want to go? I am not afraid of death, I simply fear that I will die before I’m ready. I simply want to go when I’m ready.
