This wasn't his greatest of days, but the growing annoyance and inner turmoil visible in the hunter was certainly not making it worse. He'd happily pour gasoline right on that fire to keep himself warm. "Is that...holy shit, a conscience?" He prodded a little more, feigning shock for a second before letting it drop, "--oh, no, self-preservation. Sorry, they look alike sometimes."

They were trapped here until the coast was clear, however long that took. Could be worse, there was Christmas present wrapping he might sufficiently avoid by being here instead. "If you didn't do it for me, why do it?" It was more rhetorical than anything because Briggs wasn't sure he cared either way. The hunter could have shot him, could have let him get caught up in the battle even if he wanted his hands clean, but here they both stood. Still, he liked planting torturous little ideas in the heads of his enemies to haunt in the days to come.

Part of an organization that had eradication in the name, as a wise woman once said, didn't deserve his sympathies. And he wasn't offering them, nor any ounce of trust. Well, maybe an ounce out of necessity. Devil you know, as the saying goes.

"Learn to appreciate a bad idea," he murmured back, actually starting to enjoy this a little bit. He was confident in his ability to hold the spell as long as was necessary, even under pressure. It was one of his personal favorites. With a tsk-tsk, Briggs tilted his head toward the other man, "someone didn't do his homework. Know thy enemy, baby, that's 101 level shit. But I'll let you cheat off my paper this once, as long as you remember this: we can be everywhere and you'd never know." As proof, he indicated how no one had even looked in their direction. "I really hope this helps you sleep well at night."

Oh, yeah, he was definitely having more than enough fun with this.

Asher had lied, manipulated and cheated his way out of the OEA; having committed murder, attempted patricide, betrayed his twin and framed countless members of the division. Hunters, who had since been slaughtered for their betrayal. The gala had been the final straw, but prior to that, he had already he had known that he wasn’t trusted amongst them, so if he couldn’t get out then – when could he?

It seemed only fitting now, that Asher had been instructed to meet Laine in the bar of the old hotel -- the very place where his diabolical plan had first come together. They'd come full circle, except Asher had well and truly come undone and Laine, well -- she'd had a promotion.

He had been anticipating this for a while and the fact that he wasn’t already dead meant that the OEA wanted him alive – or perhaps his father did. As valuable as Aliyah was to them, he didn't believe that she had any sway over whether he lived or died. Laine's presence demanded the attention of an entire room when she walked into it, but any warmth to it soon left too.

Being manhandled inside, he struggled as he was forcefully shown to the very same table and instructed to lay down his weapons. Unholstering the gun that hung around his waist, he obediently placed it down on the table, before holding his hands up and stating "this is everything I have on me."

aliyah celebrated her brother's win, moving to sit down on the stool next to his. "all those years of training coming out in a win, i see." she couldn't help the chuckle that escaped while she handed the guy working the game some tickets. "simmon's showdown this time, think you can keep up?"

closed starter for Asher - @fragmcntedsouls

Since coming to New Orleans and helping Asher, he had been crashing at Asher's. Although he was still in love with Asher, he hadn't tried to go back to the way they had been when he died. He wanted to try and talk to Asher about where they were, and then when he was out getting some food he had heard another male speaking about belonging to Asher. That put a stop to any conversation he was intending to have.

As he slept the nightmares were enough to cause him to call out in his sleep, the sheets soaking with sweat and his breathing loud and panicked as his scream kept coming. People always said you couldn't remember pain - but Dan could feel the accident over and over again in his dreams. The headlights coming towards his and the feel of the cold metal on his skin, before his head impacted with the glass and the feeling of the ground after hurtling through the air back to the concrete. Just as he got that far his eyes opened and his breathing raced in the dark room.

[fragmcntedsouls]

Asher's happiness had its limitations; only permitting him mere moments at a time before doubt crept in and torment invited itself to nest within his very being.

His hand dropped to Juri's chest, his fingers enclosing around the material of his jacket as he held on for just a moment longer. Desperate to reach towards the lifeline that had been thrown to him.

His movements slowly began to cease, but Asher didn't pull himself away; despite knowing how desperately he needed to. Instead, a shaky expulsion of breath projected against Juri's lips, his digits still holding on tightly to his shirt.

His façade was under constant threat and Asher walked the line so thinly that he feared it was only a matter of time before all of those walls came crashing down. He knew that he needed to pull away - but still he couldn't. Despite every urge pleading with him to stop, instead he angled his frame towards Juri, releasing his shirt before enclosing his arms around the other.

Juri let himself truly see Asher again as he gasped for air. There was something akin to a smile. It was like seeing someone again for the first time.

Juri can deny it everyone else but Asher was someone he loved. Someone worth going through hell and back.

Were there plenty of questions that needed to answered? Without a doubt. But they didn't have to be answered here and now.

While some might see Asher as the anxious guy he is, Juri fews it as someone who wants to be cautious. Someone who cares about what they do. The way his grounded head helps Juri not cause havoc across the town.

So as he brushed Asher's cheek and smirked he oulled Asher back in once more. His lips finally understanding the pattern he fell into once more. Trying to keep this moment lasting as long as possible.

Juri could easily die tomorrow or he could die in another 60 years. But he would have rather live a life with Asher then without him.

Asher Simmons ✦ @ofmoonlitmagic

Being as out of the loop of the OEA’s plan as he was proved a threat all of its own and after receiving the confirmation from Aliyah, Asher was feeling an all new kind of anxiety. 

He’d spent most of the evening pacing, equal parts trying to keep a discreet distance between himself and Juri whilst keeping tabs and doing his best to play the ever faithful part of loyal OEA soldier. It was becoming increasingly clear to him however, that he wasn’t excelling at either roles.

Asher had since moved on to his next target, figuring if anybody was going to be as eager as he was to find out what was going on, it'd be Briggs. Yet it seemed as though trying to get the hybrid’s attention and remain unnoticed by others was proving less than desirable as Briggs made his social rounds. 

So far, Asher had settled for standing in a corner of the hall, nonchalant as he greeted guests in passing but between the prying eyes adopted an onslaught of methods from waving frantic hands, to coughing loudly and even strained whispers to try and get Briggs’ attention. None seemingly proving successful. 

Waving his arm in an exaggerated motion once again, his patience wore thin as he widened his gestures in the hopes of catching the hybrid’s eyeline. In a last ditch attempt, Asher grabbed a bread roll from one of the serving tables, hurling it into Briggs’ direction and grimacing slightly at it bounced off of him and straight into the person he’d been standing beside.

Finally though, he’d managed to secure some attention and proceeded to whisper in a strained tone "c'mere” as he gestured for Briggs to head over.

"did i miss your text?" aliyah verbally wondered out loud after walking into her living room only to unexpectedly find her twin brother sitting on her couch. she'd given him a key in case of emergencies to quell his nerves but there didn't appear to be any kind of emergency going on.

over my dead body! (aliyah to asher)

asher simmons ✦ memes

"You say that, but I don't buy it. " Asher quipped before pausing with a sigh. Was trying to get Briggs and Aliyah in the same room the worst idea that he'd ever had? almost definitely, would he continue to push it? of course he would. Tossing his towel back into his gym locker, he turned to face his twin once again as he pleaded, "just -- think about it? For me."

As unlikely as their friendship should have been, Asher had found that being in Briggs' company was effortless; something that he didn't find all that often in his life. For two people so different, they had unearthed a multitude of similarities, which only made the other all the easier to understand.

“So” he began, managing to exaggerate such a small word for emphasising purposes, “I saw a shoelace tied around a suspicious finger” his tone was unusually chipper as he kicked the apartment door closed behind them; holding a 6 pack in one hand and a bag of takeout in the other. “Which either tells me that you wimped out and somebody else scooped up your girl, or this is about to turn into an early two man bachelor party. I'm hoping it is that, if not this is kind of awkward."

@ofmoonlitmagic

[fragmcntedsouls]

asher simmons ✦ aliyah simmons ( @lcthalwcapon )

A deep breath had been drawn as Asher worked up the courage to knock on Aliyah's door, but he hadn't anticipated the speed of which she would answer. Finding himself stood face to face with his twin, the other half of his soul, his heart began to thump restlessly against his ribcage, distorting the sound received in his ears. "Please -- don't, don't close the door" he pleaded.

"You're not returning my calls -- I had to" clearing his throat, he forced himself to speak the words "I had to make sure that you were okay." He couldn't have sounded any more pathetic if he had tried. He'd practiced in his head everything he wished to tell her on the drive here, but from the moment their eyes had met -- any prior thought had since been rendered useless.

[fragmcntedsouls]

Asher nodded, now so intently immersed into his own lie that even he began to believe it. “Exactly.” The hunter rolled his shoulders before reaching for the bottle and pouring them both another generous round. "Why were they trusting them in the first place? we know how manipulative the witches are. So why trust them with a job that we were already doing and doing well?” The implication that the new guy was already working with the witches didn’t feel all that far fetched now. Fabrication of the truth or not, it could be believed. “So maybe he knew their plan all along. Maybe there was something in it for him, or somebody.” 

Asher had sensed his wrongdoings before Delainey had confirmed them and returning the bottle to the table, he took a moment to recompose himself. Emotion was weakness. Particularly within his current company. “You’re right. I know I just - I don't want him to undo everything that we have worked tirelessly for. This city belongs to the OEA and I intend to keep it that way.” Releasing a slow and steady exhale, his expression hardened; a visual cue that his focus remained. Almost as if a diabolical switch had flipped. “I'm going to find out what he's up to. I know that he's apart of something. I just know it."

Asher's stubborn empathetic nature ensured that he was gifted at reading the cues of others and right now, he knew that Delainey was on board. “We won’t lose." The promise was determined and although his voice had lowered; the strength had returned. “If someone’s pulling the strings for all the wrong reasons, that puts us all at risk. We're not going down with them.” Delainey’s allegiance was everything that Asher had set out to acquire from the conversation and with a raise of his glass, he tapped it against hers “we are the future of the OEA. We've given everything to this organization, I won't let it crash and burn because loyalty has wavered. My own sister brought shame to the cause but I won't make her mistakes or let anybody else make them. You have my word."

Someone had to watch out for this kid while Aliyah was taking care of business elsewhere. If any of the Simmonses were prone to go the way of their eldest sister, it would be Asher. That couldn't be allowed to happen, but his trust in her was a good sign. She was always careful with a story, knowing they'd been trained from young ages to exaggerate, to sell truly gruesome stories with straight faces. If anyone could lie, it was a member of the OEA. Even more so the hunters who were raised through it, their training was more rigorous than the other humans in the organization.

However, Laine liked the points he was making. Something was going on behind the scenes, something those with the most blood on their hands weren't privy to, and though she'd always been told not to be curious, it would nag regardless. Maybe it was why she pushed back so hard on her father's match for her. She did not want another man telling her what to do.

"And he's come to cover that up?" She mused. "But why? On the face of it, it wasn't a bad idea. Witches have been trying to keep supernaturals in check for generations. We just picked the wrong ones to trust." Which maybe was the whole point. Maybe they were always supposed to pick the wrong witches for the task.

His concern for the hunters bothered her because that was a weakness. "No," she scolded, almost as one does a dog. "Vengeance clouds the mind. They are not family. If they are dead, they are nothing. They are bodies. We lose people, we stay on mission. We find out the truth, we clean this up. That's how their deaths are not in vain, as long as we do this with a clear head and no emotions. This guy could have us killed for this conversation alone, you cannot feel."

Giving him a reassuring nod, she really hoped he wasn't lying to her. This could put her in a very dangerous position, on top of her brother's return to her life. She knew she was likely getting a target on her back as well the minute someone found out about that. If her dad heard about it, saw Dex, she was on watch. Past loyalty didn't matter. "This is our game to lose now. The organization as a whole means more than the individual, so if someone's putting that at risk, it needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. We've lost enough ground as it is. Whatever you need from me to make sure the OEA sees tomorrow, you have it."

The compound was a freaking maze and it didn't matter how many times Asher had visited, he needed a GPS to successfully navigate the hallways. As much as he'd been trying to follow the sound of the music back into the hall, he'd managed to get himself completely turned around, stumbling into what looked like a study. A room that was already in use. "Oh hey, uh — sorry. Didn't mean to barge in. I was just looking for the bathroom. But i've kind of been looking for like forty minutes."

[fragmcntedsouls]

asher simmons ✦ briggs mikaelson // @ofmoonlitmagic

After receiving what he thought was to be an urgent 911 text from Briggs, Asher came sprinting through the gates of the compound, armed and ready for round two with Laine. Because, to Asher that’s what a 911 was. Instead, as he crashed through the threshold, he was greeted by a rather smug looking hybrid.

“Dude!” he panted, his features falling as he glanced around to assess any threat – before reaching the conclusion that there wasn’t one. “You’re kidding me, right now. Tell me you’re kidding.” Re-holstering his pistol, Asher scoffed “you didn’t call me over here to get you past a hard part of your video game again, did you?” 

Mid rant however, something caught Asher's eye and he focused on a jacket strewn over the arm of a chair, "wait a minute, is uh.." standing himself up a little straighter, he began brushing his hair into place with his palm as he asked casually (but not really) "is Phoebe here?"

Meredith was a welcomed distraction from the horrors that Asher witnessed the OEA inflict upon the city day after day. Where he could, he led the patrols that were conducted in the surrounding area's of the bakery, keeping the OEA at bay to the best of his ability. It was his own way of protecting her from the horrors that he had seen. His lips curved upwards into a soft smile as he watched the same expression that she had each day as he slipped a little extra into the tip jar, his only real way of repaying her kindness.

But it had been her words on this day that were the true kindness. Perhaps she saw something in him that he couldn’t bare to recognise in himself. Something that even Briggs and Juri had witnessed too.

Her words caused for his chest to tighten, momentarily finding himself at a loss for how to respond. Instead, he simply lowered his voice to a near whisper before musing, “I don’t really like to associate myself much with hunters either.” An almost tell tale to his true nature; his way to show Meredith that with him, she would always be safe.

one of meredith's favorite part of the day was seeing asher , feeling a draw to bring some light into the hunter's life . he wasn't as bad as some would try to make him out to be . they liked to think that everyone deserved a chance or two in showing who they truly were . once again her eyes rolls at the bill being placed in the jar , shaking her head at the man with a smile . " perhaps one day ash , but i can't fathom how you will be able to do that . you just looked like you needed something nice to happen to you the first time you stepped foot in here . think of it as my way of giving just the tiniest bit of joy in your life . i don't normally associate myself much with hunters .
