Twin Trouble (closed for theotherrookie)
@theotherrookie
It had actually meant to be a day off work. But unfortunately, something had come up with Paul, and James had asked Russell if he could come in to man the cafe. Overtime had been promised and Russell knew James would have felt bad if he didn't accept that part, so he had come in.
Things seemed to be looking up a little. Apparently Antonio had known of some abandoned sports club they could use as a makeshift base, Rook now knew for certain that attacking Bill hadn't been of her own volition, and of course, from what he heard, Antonio was having his fun tormenting the gadget user. The ride to work (he hadn't been about to walk at the moment, given what had been going on) and even his shift for most of the day had also gone on with relatively little fanfare.
That made his heart only sink that much further than usual when he saw two very familiar people entering the cafe.
Crap...
Those twin mercenaries; the two who had helped kidnap him and take him to that poison guy (Five; that was he called himself, he had to remember that). He had no idea if they specifically came to try and find out about the gadget user or if they were just through coincidence, but right now, he had to act normal.
"H-hey there, sirs. What, what can I, what can I get, get you today?"

A night of mischief || closed thread
It was seven thirty in the evening when Margo decided to go out for a night of fun. She made a phone call to her friend tam, asking if she wanted to hang out in the club downtown. Tam said that she would meet her there after taking care of things. Smiling she picked out a dress, shoes and makeup.
The weather was not as chilly as it was earlier in the day so she opted for carrying her shaw to go with her dress. Not planning on staying at the club too long, already having the habit of returning at a certain time as to not stay up late tonight. On the other hand why should she worry about that when it was her four day vacation from work. Besides she needed to let loose and dance with her friend, just forgetting about responsibilities for once.
While driving in her car, listening to some music she thought about that guy Luke north. Her Mind kept nagging at her that he looked so much like Loki, at every turn he gave good explanations, seemed truthful in what he said. She still had a lot of research, with the whole Norse mythology and what exactly happened with him. Until then she would try to relax and enjoy herself. She found a parking spot, walking towards the club seeing that the place was full of people around she couldn't help but feel like someone was watching her.

Kinsmen Meeting
@vampyrs-and-witchers
Bill had found a quiet little alcove in a nearby alleyway to rant quietly to himself. It helped him think, or so he claimed. He almost felt like he was going crazy.
First he thought his son was dead (and killed the people he thought were responsible) then he found he was alive (with amnesia, but alive) and in here in London of all places. But the place was overrun with feral skals and vampire hunters. Now he had found out from the very nemrod out to kill him that said son had joined Priwen.
"This was supposed to be easy," Bill said to himself, so caught up in his thoughts that someone close was coming by and able to hear them, "This was supposed to be so easy! What am I meant to do? March up to a Priwen base and say 'hello there, I believe you have my son with you. May I have him back?' And even if I do get him back, it's not like he'll recognise me, and that bloody nemrod is going to turn on me as soon as all the skals are dealt with. Just another day for Bill Goodwin."
He then let out a laugh, but it was mirthless. A hand ran through his ginger locks.
"What am I going to do? What the hell am I going to do?! Think, Bill, think..."

Vampire AU Starter for @fornassau <3
—————
“What about him, Captain?”
Golden orbs looked in the direction his Quartermaster had gestured, taking a moment to observe the man in question. He stood from the table he’d been sat at with some other men and a couple of whores, and the second he stepped forward, he stumbled. He grabbed onto the table for support and laughed while his men laughed at him, clearly inebriated which had Flint grimacing. “Too intoxicated.” Which he was not in the mood for tonight. He was fucking starving, but not enough to make himself drunk. Or high. Which many of these men currently were. If not incredibly aroused thanks to the whores scattered about. Their minds were filled with nothing but filth and it disgusted the Captain to the point of silencing them.
“That one?” Gates nodded to another that just walked by them and Flint followed his line of sight, watching.
He wrinkled his nose in disgust. “Smells as though he hasn’t had a bath in days. Weeks, even.”
He heard his Quartermaster sigh. “Captain, most of these men, if not all of them, have likely not bathed in several days.” Why did he have to be so damn picky? Oh right, because he was a vampire.
Flint shoots him a glare. “You think me picky, but would you not want to enjoy your meal? Or would you be content with molded bread and meat?”
Gate huffs. “I hate when you do that.”
Flint grins, knowing he was talking about the mind reading. “A habit. Forgive me.” He chuckles and Gate rolls his eyes, but there’s a smirk there now. He was the only man - the only human and, quite honestly, being - that James Flint trusted. They’d been friends for years now, sailing together for just as long, and he was the only one that knew of his Captain’s… condition. He’s kept his secret for this long and was always good at removing any suspicion among the ship that Flint may not be human. He was simply a different Captain from all others. Both highly respected and feared. His name was known far and wide and here in Nassau, especially.
He wasn’t the only Vampire, of course, but he was the only vampire pirate Captain. There was no other like him.
The doors to the tavern open and in walk some more men, more pirates and Flint’s hums, nodding in their direction. “Him.” He mutters, eyes darkening as his hunger grows, following his target - his soon-to-be-meal - as he takes a seat at one of the empty tables with his mates.
Gates groans. “Really, Captain? Him?“ He clearly wasn’t approving of his choice. And for good reason. “Captain Vane has already taken notice of some of his crewmen goin’ missing and because you’re his favorite person,” that was said with heavy sarcasm. “He’s sure you’ve got somethin’ to do with it. Now, if you could please explain to me, as to why you’re so keen on making that worse?”
Flint heard his Quartermaster’s words, grinning the entire time but not bothering to look at him. Especially not when he walked in. Charles fucking Vane. Flint’s grin grew wider, fangs almost bearing. Gates was right. Flint knew that and that’s exactly why he wanted that particular man. Because he enjoyed fucking with Charles Vane. His greatest rival, his biggest threat, and the most powerful of Captains and men, aside from himself, of course. They’d been enemies for a long while now - always trying to one up the other and trying to take the biggest prize. Trying to become the biggest and baddest name in Nassau and on all the seven seas.
But there was more to it than that… more to them. Though neither would ever fucking admit it. But deep down, Flint knew. And the way his cock hardened from the mere sight of him sometimes made that obvious, but only to himself.
Finally, he looked to Gates, his eyes even darker now and his voice a low, hungry growl. “I want him.”
#have a surprise starter!!#I’ve been wanting to do something so here we are xD#I love the last line because gate thinks flint is talking about the crewmen he wants to drink from#but really he’s answering his question saying he wants Charles vane#but gates doesn’t realize that hahaha#I hope this was okay!#c; James flint#fornassau#Flane Vampire AU

hey okay, can you give me the top ten most vital (from your perspective) scp stories to read. i don't know what's actually good and what's nothingburger
smiles!!!! of course i can!!!!!!! deciphering whats really 'vital' is pretty difficult since it really depends on if ur more interested in the doctors or the actual foundation / the scps themselves, and from there whether ur more interested in the actual scp documents or the tales, etc etc. it gets overcomplicated quick ^-^;;. ANYHOW. yes yes of course yes look at our recommendations. these are primarily world-building based, but feel free 2 ask and i'll req some tales instead .:3
1) scp-3001 - mild warning for? derealization? maybe? its reality bending based so its Strange. the plot with this one is that a man named robert scranton gets transported to essentially a void-esque plane of existence and slowly rots away. its primarily his logs that hold the article together but i think its interesting, and the scranton reality anchor* (*which comes up semi-often when dealing with any reality bending based thing) is based on this so its nice knowledge that kind of ties it together
2) excerpts from physics division field manual 13: special circumstances, humanoid threat entities - this ones just fully about reality benders & i think it is SO fascinating. reality benders also play kind of a large role depending on what tales & characters & scps you read about, but most often youll hear the term "type green" be thrown around and thats where THIS handy thing comes in!!! .:-)
3) extended biography of "the administrator" - its the admin!!!! the admin is in a weird spot as hes technically not.. a character? really? hes more of an 'idea' i guess lol. anyway point being this entire thing features small bits of him speaking to the reader through the form of little notes. i think its really interesting and kind of humanizes the higher level staff (as the admin is like. to my knowledge one of the highest level staffers, if not THE highest level depending on the canon????)
4) yesterday - this is specifically from the daybreak canon, where the sun basically kills fucking everything. its good! it provides a lot of characterization for pretty much the "main" characters (or at least the ones who pop up the most lol). it's a REALLY fascinating look at how all of them interact when faced with certain doom, esp given they were/are all friends at some point
5) incident 239-b-clef-kondraki - ok despite the title im not biased here i swear. this one just comes up a lot Generally and i would amiss to not recommend it. it slips between written visual & audio logs and notes clef (& co) wrote, which i personally just think is pretty Neat .:-)
6) duke 'till dawn - ignore my biases about kondraki this ones again just relevant and comes up kind of often and i would, again, be amiss to not recommend it. storytelling is primarily told thru written visual logs as well as interviews with staff
7) personal log of dr gears / personal log of [redacted] "iceberg" [redacted] - im grouping these together since they tell the same story and are two halves of one whole. gears & iceberg are both fairly important and these are also just interesting looks at how they operate. both are told thru the format of journal entries
8) 7 things that new level 3 researchers should know - this is an entire like essentially a pamphlet styled booklet written by sophia light to share knowledge with mid-tier staff. its neat and i think its fascinating to see what actual workers say about the foundation, and specifically working in the foundation .:-) (also ill admit im biased here sophia light is just very cool to me. i recommend reading about her sometime! ^_^)
9) a recording of prometheus innovations' pitch for the scranton encabulator mk vi, and the ramifications of its existence - this is primarily a bunch of reality bender based technobabble but its cool!!!! theres actually some interesting things that are mentioned in here!!! also its just fun. there isnt a whole lot i really remember about this one but from what i do remember its great and i enjoy it .:-)
10) founding - this ones part of classical revival canon, a canon based in, of course, reviving the older canons of the scpverse from when it first started But Better Now. it particularly is about the kind of 'main guys' creating the foundation basically. (oh, fair warning, youll see a lad named 'francis' be mentioned, that's alto clef from before he was properly alto clef ^_^)
#hope these are okay??? maybe? hopefully?#im not the best at choosing starter points. again its Complicated#these are just my faves from a long ass list of necessary reads that i think everyone should read if they wanna get into the foundation \o/#ALSO THIS IS. SO LONG. SORRY I. kind of. nerded out real bad.#scp.doc#jawbone tag#inbox#txt

@nekasu liked for a thing:
Despite having known Neka for some time, his powers alluded her. During says time, Angel often found herself wondering if she herself possessed any additional abilities. The only one she knew for a fact would be her elongated lifespan and the boost her vision gave her. But other than that, she never sought out anyone to property help her find any talent she might have.
So one day, while Angel was brushing her tail, she waited for the right moment to ask.

“Neka… do you think I have any abilities outside my vision?”

🥂— @ang3lmoans
———-
Salem was sitting at the bar, sipping away his favorite concoction—tropical redbull mixed with vodka. He just needed a night out to destress, especially after a long day at work and having to deal with his brothers’ nonsense. Salem sighed and looked at all his surroundings, from watching the dance floor to glancing around the bar. Oh how he wished he wasn’t alone, but it’s not like he really had friends to call up.
He may need another drink.
As his amber eyes scanned the room again, he couldn’t help but notice someone on the other side of the building locking eyes with him. Shyly, Salem looks away and just focuses on taking more sips from his drink.

closed starter for @honeyhour, based on plot linked in source
whoever said vampires had no reflections is fucking stupid, she thought. because scarlett clearly saw herself in the mirror - eyes sunken, pale lipped, and red eyed - severely deprived of her precious life source. it was still noon, and she had several hours left before nightfall, before she could prey on unsuspecting strangers. "mmmm, now would be a good time to tell me if you have a shitty neighbor you'd be okay with never seeing again," she mused dryly, trying to recall the others in the apartment building. just anyone would do, all except for the one person standing in front of her.

event 002. - choose your own adventure
featuring: caradoc dearborn & open !
“I don’t know about you,” Cary started in a low and slow drawl, leaning on his elbow against a table set at the perimeter of the room, “But I am so bored. You’d think with how much they clearly spent on this whole thing they’d have sprung for better entertainment.” He chuckled as he glanced out at the crowd. “Do you wonder what half of them are even talking about?” He pointed discreetly at an elderly pair several yards away, animatedly in conversation though their words couldn’t be heard at this distance. “Take those two — what do you think they’re talking about?” Caradoc leaned even closer to his companion then, lips ghosting by their ear as he whispered, “Because I think they’re secret lovers but old handlebar mustache there just found out he’s been two timed by fancy hat. Why else would he be so red in the face?” Cary’s eyes twinkled mischievously as they danced between the old man with a tomato colored face and impressively curled mustache and the hat wearing individual he was engaged in conversation with, then back to Cary’s own fellow eavesdropping companion.


featuring: yun jae-won & open !
Jae hadn’t meant to spill the remains of their wine on another party goer. It was the purest of accidents, brought on by a drunken klutz who had tripped on another guest’s dress train and haphazardly waved their arms about while seeking balance, thus knocking the drink right out of the vampire’s hand and onto the nice dress robes of the person passing them by at the most opportune moment. “I mean it, I’m really sorry,” he said, grabbing whatever cocktail napkins were within reach and offering them to the one in soiled dress robes. “I swear, it was an accident, it all happened so fast.” Standing taller, they frowned at the other, trying to asses the fabric for any potential damage. “That doesn’t stain easily does it?” They then reached into their jacket to pull out their wand. “If you trust my spellcasting, I know a charm that will fix it right up.” They felt awful, were willing to do whatever was necessary to right this wrong. “I could also pay for it?” He offered quietly, wand still in hand. Jae hoped they didn’t take the offer — the dress robes looked expensive, definitely more than he could afford.

featuring: ted tonks & open !
“I suppose it is kind of fortunate that you’re surrounded by healers,” Ted laughed as he pulled out the small first aid kit he always had strapped onto his belt when in uniform. He had thought initially that he should leave it behind when heading up to the new ward for the party, but he had a nagging feeling that he needed to keep a hold of it. It was small, not too bulky, and mostly consisted of tiny gulp sized portions of potions in small glass bottles, a roll of bandage with smiley faces printed across it, and small tins of healing salves. Things that could be used for smaller and more general healing practices. When he saw the stumble, heard the shatter of glass, he was quick to rush to the guest’s side, assuring everyone surrounding them that he was a licensed healer and would be able to help them. “How does that feel?” He asked, after administering medicine. He was putting his kit away, then taking his wand out from his St. Mungo’s issued holster so he could use a quick cleaning charm on the glass and spilled drink. Once that was taken care of, Ted pulled out a lollipop from his pocket, offering it to the patient. “Drinks are fun and all, but maybe we should take a little sucker break, hm?”

featuring: corban yaxley & open !
Corban was heading back inside after a much needed smoke break, waving his wand over himself to dispel the smell of nicotine clutching his dress robes as he crossed the foyer of St. Mungo’s. His heels clicked rhythmically against the linoleum floor, his speedy pace and long gait taking him towards the lift within moments. The doors were closing in as he stumbled closer, holding out a hand and calling, “Stop the lift!” Whether because his arm slipped between the closing doors, or the person on the other side magicked them to stop, the elevator doors slid back open, allowing him to cross inside. “Thank you,” he said in a huff, stepping inside. “I take it you’re heading up to the Blishwick Wing as well?” Both passengers settled within, and the lift had begun its ascent… only to come to a random stop between floors with a horrible screech. “….Well that doesn’t sound good,” Corban muttered, digging back into his robes to pull out his wand. “You’d think after spending all that money on the new ward, they’d ensure this elevator worked.” He sighed, turning towards the other stuck in this predicament with him. “I figure if it’s broken reparo ought to work, but just in case do you have any other charms in mind?

@theotherrookie
It was probably a stupid idea to venture out. But the man who had recently attacked them was still most likely recovering from their combined counterassault (and Bill biting him and making him bleed a lot), and the poison resistance balm that Leofric and Veronica had working on had been completed.
It seemed that things were looking up just a little bit. From updates, Rook seemed to be progressing well with the treatments, Bill was no longer looking like hell, Erica was doing just fine after that fight, and Leofric's eyes had fully recovered, even if he still needed some time to heal completely.
So even Russell felt okay to go out when Lucien talked about getting a bubble tea. He needed to pick up a few small groceries anyway, and the fresh air and the moonlight would probably would do them a bit of good. So after applying some of the balm to his face, neck, and hands, it had been time to set off for that small excursion.
"So if, if you feel there's, there's any trouble brewing," Russell said then, when he finally saw the shop entrance, "Not, not that I think there will, there will be today, all we, we gotta do is shout. Shop's small so, so it's not like we, we won't hear each other."
He had decided to bring Lewis with him, just in case. But he was fairly confident he wouldn't need to use him.

Closed starter for @the-expatriate
Lydia entered the ballroom, surrounded by those whose wealth far exceeded her own. Despite being a minor mythological creature, she didn’t have nearly as much wealth as say, a vampire who beens laundering for thousands of years, or a goblin price hiking people for random curios.
She sighed, hoping her sleeved dress covered her back well enough, steeling her courage and walking around the benefit for a bit, finding her spot for dinner with a neat little nameplate on the table. Most tables were set for anywhere from 2-6 people; it seemed Lydia was set in the 2s section.
She sat down, wondering when she was going to meet the other who’d be joining her for dinner at the exotic animals benefit. She didn’t have money, but it was a black tie event, so if you fit the dress code and applied early enough, you could get in.

Snake Fangs and Stained Glass Eyes (closed for theotherrookie)
@theotherrookie
There were perks to being a library admin. Even though he was on a scheduled leave, Antonio had decided it best to pay a visit, just in case he could get any leads on who was possibly connected to Lucien's attacker and Russell's kidnapper. The more people they knew about, the better.
So if anyone had been doing research about non-humans in the library, he had come to find that. He did feel a little bad about letting down the children there who had been excited to see 'Uncle Tony' and had wanted him to read to them. But he promised he would be back to do so very soon.
At the moment, staying out longer than necessary was a risk, especially when he was alone, and he didn't want to worry Rook too much by being in danger more than he needed to be.
But after getting some names and borrowed/return records written down, he was satisfied and moved to head out after tucking the notes away in his pocket, making sure to put on the new shades he had ordered back over his eyes.
As he already started to step away from the entrance, he began to get an awful feeling that he was being watched.

❝ yes, yes, i'll pick some up on the way - ❞ his words are cut short as chance dealt his fate today, his eyes locking on a girl whose face still haunts him in his dreams in the most beautiful way. couldn't focus on his mother's words that continue to trickle from his phone before he tells her that he needs to go, as if he needed to focus on something while waiting for his coffee order. she was on a date this time... at the very place he introduced her to. despite the pain ebbing in his chest, he supposed that karmic retribution was the only thing that could make this right, and he had no reason to be jealous. not after he'd ghosted her for months on end.

@a-den-of-demons
Nia sat on the bed in the hotel room that she and the male she had met had gotten for the two of them. They hadn't known each other long, but the two of them had hit it off quite well. Between his warm, gentle personality and good looks, the half dragon, half human girl found herself drawn to him easily. At the very least, he didn't treat her weird or differently like a lot of people did with her due to her dragon side!
Still, despite how happy she was to get to know him, the blonde was rather nervous sitting there, not knowing what would happen. Hopefully, he'd calm her down quick!
