sharps

for @astrcds

“Astrid.”

Dantalion, dressed in leggings and a tight long-sleeved shirt both soaked through with sweat, had just finished a long training session. Xe had started with balance beam work, xir preferred method of both warm up and what xe considered the closest xe came to choreography, then moved to a low tightrope, then up to the one that crossed the big top far over the heads of where the crowd would soon be sitting. Doing cartwheels, however, had been far easier on a balance beam than on a rope - which had slack no matter how tight anyone could try to make it - and Tali had decided to wrap up practice for the day after coming far too close to a serious fall for comfort. The net set up far below did little to reassure xir of the actual safety of xir act.

Xe came over to where Astrid had apparently been practicing a knife-throwing routine of some kind or other, splaying out on the ground to do xir post-workout stretches. 

“I would ask what you thought of my choreo, but I can��t be sure you were even watching. What is it exactly that you’re up to down here?”

meet tali!!

☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙  / go sang gil, 25, he/xir, ???? / ⟶ welcome to the big top dantalion! i heard that you go by judas and that you’re 25 and a tightrope gymnast? that’s pretty impressive, considering you’ve been with the circus for 2 years. i heard people say you were brilliant and charismatic, but also haughty and brutally honest, and that you remind them of expansive libraries, priceless family heirlooms, and grand gothic mansions set ablaze. guess we’ll see if it’s true, eh? [ lapin, 24, they/them, pst ]

// hi im lapin, your local neighborhood bun bun hehe

not much to say about the mun except that i have 16 muses over 3 rps and also a full time job so pls be patient with me. sometimes i will barely make activity check, other times i will flood the dash nonstop for days at a time. the muse is whimsical like that

more importantly, about dantalion!!

dantalion is a very mysterious figure with a very mysterious past that xe rarely talks about. it is impossible to tell their physiology or gender at a glance and xe will avoid the question should it come up. while it is obvious that tali is very very well educated and has rather refined tastes, nobody seems to kno much more than that about xir

prefers xe/xir pronouns but will accept he/him in a pinch

quick things about tali for plotting!!

~ goes by dantalion, tali, or judas, but never dan

~ doesnt seem to have a surname as far as anyone can tell

~ doesnt like to talk about xir past but might be willing to open up about it to a very close friend? on that note

~ doesnt seem to have many close friends. getting emotionally close to tali at all seems like a challenge that not many have considered, let alone attempted

~ has a soft spot for...something that will remain a secret for the time being

~ is EXTREMELY flexible and has near perfect balance; probably could have been a contortionist but xe seems to like the part where they get to do it up high and perched precariously on a rope

~ has no qualms about saying what he thinks of people

overall just a big mystery and ice prince prone to outbursts waiting to be solved and melted

so thats the boi!! hmu for plotting (im always on discord and line, dming on tumblr is typically not a terribly gr8 way to reach me)

write with yall soon~!

<3 lapin
