          edith was no stranger to having movie nights with her friends. but for some reason, it felt a little more exciting with indie. while those other nights were spent watching the corniest movies edith had ever seen, she and indie were able to watch the good stuff. however, edith was sure she had gone a little overboard when it came to snacks - chuckling to herself as she set everything up on the table in front of indie. “so . . . i wasn’t quite sure what you liked and i know i could’ve asked but i wanted to surprise you,” edith explained with a grin, “but i really hope you’re not a fan of twizzlers because i already call dibs,” edith replied, grabbing the pack just to make sure. “how about we start with your favorite for tonight? we have the same taste anyways so i already know it’ll be terrifying but good.”  // @persephonyed​

"if you can't push a meatball with your nose for me, i don't think you love me that much. i'd easily do the same for you," edith jokes. but nonetheless, edith holds onto her hand as the keep walking to their lunch date. "mm, not to boost your ego or anything but it might've gotten better after you came around. only by, like . . . twenty percent though." even though they had been together for a while ( a fact that still shocked edith but she was happy nonetheless that val still wanted to be with her ), things still felt like the very beginning between them and edith was happy for that. "me too," edith quickly agrees before the both of them head inside. "what would make it even better is if you still do the little meatball trick with your nose. it'd truly make my day. but . . . no pressure."

"as much as i love you, i don't know if i'm going to push a meatball with my nose for you." she teased as she wrapped an arm around her waist. "i don't know if that'll be a good look for me." her smile widened as the two of them walked down the street together as close as possible. "how's your day been so far? probably not great until now right?" val teased as she gave edith a playful nudge. even after all of this time together, she loved how the two of them still had this playful nature about one another. "i won't be upset if this is the highlight until we're both done at the end of the day, i know this will be mine." val said with a smile as the two of them headed to one of their favorite italian restaurants.

already interested in your not introduced ocs 👀

TO BE INTRODUCED:

VAMPIRE VERSE

Trinity Santos

FC: Adria Arjona. Love Interest: Dean Winchester, Seth Gecko, Dracula (sort of, not really; mutual obsession). Fic: The Sainted Sisters.

She is the one who holds strongest to the beliefs with which she had been made. She has no love for vampires, while her sisters, Faith and Edith, are often drawn to them by the relatability of immortality.

Edith Michaelis

FC: Kathryn Newton. Love Interest: Edward Cullen, Kol Mikaelson. Fic: The Sainted Sisters.

Believed to have been stolen as vengeance for the witches he'd burned, Sebastian Michaelis was ruthless in finding his sister, Edith. She'd been Goried before the seventh witch was hanged.

Faith Castellan

FC: Lesley-Ann Brandt. Love Interest: Damon Salvatore, Lestat de Lioncourt, Santanico Pandemonium. Fic: The Sainted Sisters.

The only survivor of the attack on her master's house, Faith Castellan was spared by the vampire Lestat for her resemblance to his love, Queen Akasha.

HARRY POTTER (Golden Trio Era)

Wilbur Prewett

FC: Sean Berdy. House: Gryffindor. Love Interest: Caden McLaggen. Fic: Visions of Gideon.

Son of Constance Flint and Gideon Prewett, Wilbur was deafened by the attack that killed his father and uncle. He would still prove capable of magic, and attends Hogwarts in the same year as Althea Abbott and Harry Potter, and his cousin, Ron Weasley.

Caden McLaggen

FC: Dacre Montgomery. House: Gryffindor. Love Interest: Wilbur Prewett. Fic: Visions of Gideon

"How do you say I love you in sign language?"

"If you have to tell him you love him, you don't."

"I don't have to tell him, but I want to. Every single day for the rest of our lives."

Ives McLaggen

FC: Hunter Schafer. House: Ravenclaw. Love Interest: Dean Thomas. Fic: Ablaze.

Younger sister to Caden McLaggen, Ives had big shoes to fill when coming to Hogwarts. Which didn't exactly mean Caden was impressive, or anything. If anything, it just meant he had abnormally large feet.

LORD OF THE RINGS

Maethrien of Rivendell

FC: Bridget Regan. Love Interest: Aragorn (unrequited love). Fic: ((TBA))

Of Elrond's children, Maethrien was the name that seldom arose to the forefront of discussion. No, instead they had come to call her Lady Woe, for there was none a more mournful cry in all of Middle Earth than hers when Aragorn fell.

LUCIFER

Remiel (Remi Greenfields)

FC: Ciara Renée. Love Interest: None. Fic: Chaos & Conquer.

"The Silver City is mine, every bit as it is yours. More so ever since you were cast down, Lightbringer. How is Hell nowadays, little brother?"

MARVEL

Theresa Demir

FC: Melisa Pamuk. Love Interest: Bucky Barnes. Fic: Krvna Osveta.

"They introduced me to pain. Real pain, the kind that makes you believe in hell. And then they weaponized my suffering. Made it so that it was no longer just my own. And then, when I had finally found peace, they stole that from me, too. That is what Hydra did to me."

Delilah Dresden

FC: Carly Chaikin. Love Interest: Eddie Brock, Matt Murdock. Fic: The Policy of Truth.

Older sister to Drew Dresden, Delilah returned to New York upon the untimely death of their parents in order to serve as Drew's legal guardian. She left behind, in San Francisco, her best friend, Eddie Brock, who graduated and went on to become a reporter. Delilah would become a reporter, too. Freelance, for The Daily Bugle, and hellbent on uncovering the identities to the masked heroes that roam New York.

Drew Dresden

FC: Odessa A'zion. Love Interest: Harry Osborn. Fic: We Will Always Have Tomorrow.

Drew is just trying to survive high school, while also helping her sister dismantle the conspiracy of the century. But of course, life couldn't be simple, ever, because not only is her best friend, Peter, blatantly blowing her off to do God knows what, but Harry Osborn, her old nemesis, has returned to town.

Lana Leeds

FC: Liza Soberano. Love Interest: Peter Parker. Fic: Serpentine.

"There's something dangerous about the boredom of teenage girls."

Paz Martin

FC: Ana de Armas. Love Interest: Loki. Fic: Wanderer.

Known to SWORD as The Dreamwalker, Paz Martin was called in to observe the Hex. Sent in to retrieve Monica Rambeau, Paz enters a fractured world, Wanda's fractured mind. Not only that, but she's started having dreams of a man cloaked in green and gold.

Eileen Stallard

FC: Vanessa Kirby. Love Interest: Steve Rogers, Sam Wilson. Fic: The Apotheosis of War.

The Green Goblin had been unstable to begin with. Based vaguely off the remnants of Erskine's serum, a freak accident at the Osborn Estate resulted in nurse Eileen Stallard receiving abilities that would make her more than human. Eileen Stallard died on that estate that day. And the Shieldmaiden walked out.

Edmund Barnes

FC: David Corenswet. Love Interest: Eileen. Fic: The Apotheosis of War.

Younger brother to Bucky, childhood friend of Steve and Eileen, Edmund Barnes would fall in the war, but be hailed as one of Captain America's bravest companions, alongside his brother.

SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT

Ailia Blythe

FC: Emma Dumont. Love Interest: Dexter Vex. Fic: And The Darkness Rained Upon Them.

"I thought you were dead! Well, more dead than you are now, I wouldn't exactly call your current condition very... How exactly did you become a reanimated skeleton again?"

STRANGER THINGS

Zara Mathers

FC: Sophie Turner. Love Interest: Billy Hargrove. Fic: The Strangest Thing.

"I really hate this town."

Yolanda Lane

FC: Sonoya Mizuno. Love Interest: Steve Harrington. Fic: The Strangest Thing.

"There's something about Hawkins that just makes you dread. Like we're constantly hovering on the edge of catastrophe, and our lifeline is nothing but a single red thread. You know?"

THE WITCHER (whole story is under construction, really; has potential to be an original story)

Rheya of Verden

FC: Amita Suman. Love Interest: Wenrys. Fic: ((TBA)).

Prince Wenrys of Agaron

FC: Timothee Chalamet. Love Interest: Rheya. Fic: ((TBA)).

Seiko of Kaesong

FC: Dianne Doan. Love Interest: None, little bit of Geralt. Fic: ((TBA)).

Ramsamy of Gravenor

FC: Luke Pasqualino. Love Interest: Yennefer. Fic: ((TBA)).

          edith had been looking for a way to have some fun, seeing as she was spending all of her time at work as of lately. so when one of her friends would tell her about a party, edith would be down. but she was thinking about ditching altogether when she would see a familiar face. one she hadn’t been hoping to see for a very long time. her chest suddenly gets tight and edith finds herself quickly looking away before her ex would notice her, grabbing the first bottle of liquor she could find and taking a large swig. one turns into five which turns into ten and edith has enough liquid courage to now approach shane without stuttering. “surprise,” edith chuckles, “what’re you doing here anyways?” // @ctrldchaos​

edith & indigo.

      “okay, so i’m immediately going to do what i can and work my magic around the office,” indie decided without consulting her new best friend, “we are getting you the desk right beside mine. i don’t care if brenda will be sad she can’t share stories about her chronic bunions with me anymore, we have to be desk neighbours.” the blonde grinned, already formulating the plan of attack in her mind. “also, typically the guys are simply average looking and nothing to tear your life apart over. at least give me women, y’know? then i’d understand it a little bit more. the whole pining and aching and feeling like your life is over is so much more relatable when it’s queer. i can’t help it.” she shrugged. “god, those are both good choices … what if we both pick one or two of our favourites and we can share them with each other? it can be a fun way to get to know one another better as well as watching some good movies.”

                 edith laughed, not really taking indie serious. there was no way she could actually do that . . . could she? “if you can make that happen then i’ll forever be in your debt. i’m tired of having to hear gavin and his god-awful dad jokes.” edith would definitely look forward to work a little more if she had someone as cool as indie as her desk neighbor instead. “that’s exactly what i’ve been thinking. women, in general, are just so much more interesting and so pretty,” she remarked, “where have you been my entire life?” the line was probably a little chessy but edith meant it. she’s convinced she’s found her other half and in the most unlikely place possible. “yeah, we can do that. nothing screams bonding time like watching people get horribly murdered,” edith teased with a smile. obviously, she was excited because she was looking forward to making a new friend. and edith couldn’t ignore how lucky she was to have found someone with similar interests. she couldn’t miss out on this.

edith & grey.

edith’s words send a familiar pang of jealousy straight to grey’s stomach. why couldn’t she have gotten her shit together sooner? she felt like a fucking idiot for not being able to get her own head out of her ass before it was too late - but now she was hurting and her pride was far too strong for her to admit that. “no it’s not a problem for me, it’s just fucking lame you have to let your girlfriend tag along to everything we do, does she not have any friends of her own.” anger bubbles like acid reflux in the back of her throat as the female continues talking. “this has nothing to do with maturity. she scowls, keeping her arms folded tightly against her chest, like she’d fall apart if she moved. “for starters - i’m a fucking scorpio - of course i’m the jealous type, i just don’t usually give a shit about anyone.” she admits, unable to meet her ex’s gaze. “also super not my fault we broke up, you left me, remember?”

         edith rolls her eyes, arms folded across her chest. "of course she has friends of her own. she just likes to spend time with me. she makes time for me." the last line may or may not be a dig at grey. "at least you admit it out loud," edith scoffs, knowing that grey was right. she wasn't the type to give a shit about anyone. and while, once upon a time, edith thought grey might've cared about her. she'd be proven wrong. the brunette would then glance away from grey when she'd mention their breakup, it still being a bitter pill to swallow. "you're serious?" edith asks. "you gave me no choice but to leave. you pushed me away. you're the one who stopped loving me." edith was convinced of that. she didn't fight for edith when she would leave, merely letting her go. how could you love someone yet treat them otherwise? "i loved you, grey, but you didn't care."

[cigvrettedvet]

edith & lenny.

“edith– edith– they were on the PORCH!” lenny’s eyes were ABLAZE as she recounted this scandalous piece of information. “at least at first. then they were in the yard, then back in the apartment. EVERYONE knows their business.” at the mention of the other spending the night, lenny nodded. she hadn’t had a sleepover since she was a little girl, so a part of her would actually LOVE that. otherwise, of course… she’d play it off like a big joke. “sure, come on over. bring popcorn and we can paint each other’s nails, too.”

           "oh. well, still, my neighbors aren't nearly as scandalous as yours. i'd feel lucky if i heard them arguing about who left the toilet seat up," edith shrugs, a slightly teasing tone to her voice. "really?" she perks up, never thinking she'd get that far. "you'd let me spend the night? i'm shit at painting nails but i'll certainly give it a try. we can even watch horror films and everything."

[cigvrettedvet]

edith & griffin.

“we can do a target trip or something later, if the ghosts are that bothered by it.” griffin notes in a matter of fact way, shrugging his shoulder. the thing was, yes, this is probably the most foolish thing he’s ever suggested to edith, but the fact that she’s going along with it makes him sure that it’s also the most genius thing. “right, right. exactly, it’s literally a marketing cash cow all on it’s own.” he agrees and then he’s just listening in amused awe and admiration as she sees every single level that this could reach. he agrees with all of them, even the loftiest of goals and he likes her attitude, but he feels like they may have to confront some big questions. “okay, love all of this, definitely. two questions though, now that i’m really thinking about it. one, how do we contact the ghosts? two… it’s cool and all for us to have guests that want to be haunted here, but do we wanna be haunted and if not how do we prevent that?”

                    edith was happy to know that griffin was on board. as long as the both of them worked together, they’d be sure to make this turn into something big. of course, griffin’s following questions are valid and edith supposed that they would need to figure out a way to talk to the spirits first before they did anything else. “ouija board, right? that’s what they usually do in the movies. we just figure out who to use it,” edith remarked, figuring there had to be at least one youtube tutorial for that, “once we figure it out, then we set boundaries. tell them what they can and can’t do. they can’t mess with us and they definitely can’t mess with my sleep schedule. i have too many shifts at the shop to deal with ghosts who no longer feel the need to sleep.” edith’s cool with the ghosts as long as they don’t let her end up with eyebags. “should we write down what we want to say? i feel like we should ask them personal questions too. like, who they are and how they died? that’d be cool. scary, but cool.”

[cigvrettedvet]

edith & val.

   “a little more than my brother screaming in our faces?” val said with a little chuckle as she raised an eyebrow. “oh i don’t think it’ll be that bad… at least we’ll have the cookies.” she could just get lost in the moment completely and the last thing she wanted to do was leave her arms. the longer she stayed like this, she knew the less she’ll want to head to frankie and adele’s apartment for the holidays. playfully she rolled her eyes when the song stopped, but another started right back up. “i don’t think they’ll mind.” she teased with a smile on her face as she leaned in to give her another peck to her lips. “you can blame me all you want. say i was making the cookies or wrapping their gift, i don’t care.” she teased as she wrapped her arms around her neck once more, keeping her body close to hers. “next time we’re just doing something just the two of us first, then i’ll head over and eat whatever the two of them burned.” 

               “yeah, that’s the best part about it,” edith chuckles with a shake of her head. as much as she wished that they could stay like this forever, they had prior obligations to get to. and she’s only eighty percent sure that adele and frankie would kill them if they missed out on their special dinner. “eh . . .  maybe you’re right,” edith playfully responded before she kissed val again. “i will definitely put the blame on you. i don’t wanna face adele’s wrath.” she’s teasing, of course, because she’s laughing seconds later. “agreed. but . . . what if they didn’t burn anything? maybe adele could be a masterchef or something?” edith playfully asked as she wrapped her arms around val’s waist.

[cigvrettedvet]

"just new to the job, i've been here my entire life," edith admits with a shrug. she had never gone anywhere else before, mostly living vicariously through her peers and coworkers. "what about you?" it probably could've been the same for indie but with edith sticking to herself most times, she wouldn't have known. a smile graces edith's lips when indie mentions how fate brought them together. although edith didn't believe in fate, it was cute to hear. "probably the best thing she could've ever done," she responds. giggles spill past edith's lips as she clinks glasses with the bubbly blonde and edith is the happiest she's been in a long time. "well, as long as i can cut off your circulation, i guess that makes it better," edith teased before chuckling again. "but as soon as we figure something out, we have to do it. i'm just worried i might accidentally punch someone in the face so maybe cutting off my circulation is necessary."

[cigvrettedvet]

edith smiles. "well, thank you. you know just what to say to make a girl feel better about herself." she thinks about val's question for a moment before finally shrugging. "uh, a little. but either way, i'm happy you even did this at all. it shows just how much of a romantic you really are." she hums in thought and although there was no wrong answer, edith knew moments like this would be rare. "i guess i'm really in the mood for italian. hey, we could even have our little lady and the tramp moment with the spaghetti," edith then offers, "oh, i'm definitely blaming you if they get mad at me. i'm not taking any responsibility whatsoever."

"you look beautiful, stop." val said as she gave edith a playful nudge and looped their arms together. she was near the record store after class and instead of returning home, she decided to pop in and say hello. "would you be more impressed if i said i had this planned?" the blonde teased as she gave her a nudge and rested her head on her shoulder. "class got out early, and i wanted to see my favorite person. the lunch date just adds to it." she said with a chuckle as the two of them continued to walk. "what are you in the mood for? plus, i know your boss won't mind if i steal you away for a little longer than an hour. blame me if they get mad." val said with a little wave of her hand.

[cigvrettedvet]

edith was nothing short of pleasantly surprised when she'd be at work, only for val to show up during her lunch hour. she had already been planning to go out and get a bite to eat but to be going out with val, it was even better. "if i had known you were going to be surprising me on my lunch break, i would've worn something a little nicer," edith teases with a shake of her head. "but seriously, i'm happy you showed up. we could go to our favorite place and i'm all yours for about an hour or so." she gets her things before leaving, even holding open the door for val. "did you have this planned all along or did you just randomly decide to make my day?"

"it was a spur-of-the-moment kind of thing, plus they've been bugging me to have you around more." val said with a little smile, glad that edith wasn't mad but knew that parties like this weren't either of their scenes. dressing up and sticking to this theme was a bit out of their comfort zone but she did owe her friends a meeting with her girlfriend. "because you're the peanut butter to my jelly, horrible right?" she teased as she nudged her playfully. "i was also thinking save poison ivy and harley quinn for more of a just us type of costume." val said with a little wink and a shrug of her shoulders. at least they could play it a bit safer with just matching as peanut butter and jelly. the smile on her face widened as she wrapped her arms around her tightly and pulled her in for a big hug. "if i keep this cheesy shit up we might turn into the love birds and i'm not a fan." she said with a laugh as she kissed her lips softly. "are you feeling more peanut butter, or are you feeling more jelly? i'll also give you a little warning for any of my friends, i think you should be alright they're not too bad."

[cigvrettedvet]

edith raises a brow, folding her arms across her chest. "i'll try to not be mad at you." of course it was impossible for edith to actually be mad at val though. after all, she had immediately accepted all of val's ideas for decorating around the house for halloween. even when val had gone above and beyond, edith had been there to support her. at this point, nothing could surprise her. "a costume party? you're right about not doing anything, but i don't even have a costume to wear," edith responds with a shake of her head. "i'm thinking peanut butter and jelly. less effort and it'll be funnier. we'll have to say the harley quinn and poison ivy bit for another time." although edith didn't like for things to be such short notice, she couldn't be upset at val for long. "i do wish that you could've told me but i'd like to meet more of your friends at the same time. and yeah, i definitely agree that we need a break from the lovebirds. if i spend one more moment with them, i might just puke," edith replies before chuckling, pretending to puke seconds later.

"don't get mad at me..." val said as she leaned against their counter trying to hide the small smile on her face. thankfully edith was already aware of how much she enjoyed the holidays so her going over the top shouldn't be too much of a surprise for her that she loved Halloween as well. she knew it would just be a matter of time before their whole apartment was filled with decorations and candy for the kids in their apartment building. "i kind of said that you and i would go to a friend of mine's costume party. she asked and i said we're probably not doing anything." she said before feeling her smile start to wide. "it's not for a bit but i was thinking you could be peanut butter and i could be jelly... oh no how about harley quinn and poison ivy that would be so much fun." she said before chuckling. "i know i should have asked you first but i don't think you've met too many of my friends, just a handful. plus i feel like we need a break from the lovebirds a couple floors from us." she said with a chuckle.

edith & val.

   “i’m honestly very surprised you didn’t run away after that dinner.” val said with a chuckle as she pulled back slightly to look at edith again. it was truly a nightmare but the two of them got through it and she was safe to say that frankie approved of the two of them. “i can’t imagine either of them cooking. frankie literally eats cereal all the time and god only knows if he can boil water.’ she teased as she kept her arms around her neck as they continued to sway to the music. she never wanted the song to end so they could stay in this moment forever. just the way that edith looked at her gave her goosebumps and she had never felt so loved by one person before. “you put up with me and my brother more than anyone should.” she teased as she cupped her face gently. the song finally ended and val playfully groaned in disappointment. “can’t we say we’ll be late?” she knew edith was right and that they had to go, eventually. val wanted to savor this moment as much as she possibly could. 

              edith shakes her head, a smile breaking out onto her lips. “i never would have. it’s gonna take a little more than that to scare me away.” and besides, everything had worked out for the better. now she and frankie were on good terms and things were better than ever. “let’s pray the apartment isn’t on fire by the time we get there,” she teased. continuing to hold onto her girlfriend as the song played, they swayed along to the beat. they were lost in their own little world and if either edith or val had it their way, they’d probably stay there. “and i’ll happily continue if it leads to more moments like this,” edith responded. just then, the song stopped and the two of them were forced back to reality all over again. “you can do whatever you want. but if adele murders us for being late, i’m blaming you,” edith chuckles, although she never lets go of val either. 

[cigvrettedvet]

edith & val.

   val playfully rolled her eyes as she snuck a quick kiss and continued to sway with edith as another song filled the room. “ever since you burnt my french toast when i slept over. the bread was uneven, but the two of us just… clicked.” she said with a smile already wanting to hide her face at how sappy she was being. “if you wanted me to put a date on it that’s probably when i realized i was madly in love with you. that and the horrible dinner with my brother the first time around just confirmed it.” her cheeks went a little red as she chuckled and tried to hide her face again. “but again, tell anyone and i’ll deny it.” val teased as she gave her a little wink. the two of them danced around being together before from all the trips to the record store, even living in the same building she couldn’t help but to wonder how long they would have been together if either one of them took a leap of faith. “maybe we should say we came down with the flu and just eat all these cookies, that can be our dinner.” she teased as she held her a little closer and continued to sway to the music. “one more song and i guess we’ll head over. the two of them are supposed to be cooking but we’ll see when we get there.” 

          edith laughs at the memory. it had seemed like so long ago, almost like a dream. their relationship was a dream come true to the record store employee who had been on her own for so long. “that burnt french toast was the beginning of our love story,” she smiled, “the horrible dinner afterwards really was a confirmation.”  edith wondered just how things would have been different if they hadn’t taken the next step together. if they had just remained as neighbors, silently pining for each other and not doing anything about it. “a dinner of only cookies? six year old me would’ve loved that idea,” she playfully wiggles her brows, “we have to go, just so we can see how it all goes. i can’t imagine adele cooking at all but maybe she’ll surprise us all over again.” they already made a promise to go and they couldn’t back out now.
