Strange Little Girl, Where Are You Going?

@abyssalfated

“A bit to the left, and... there.” 

 Cáel hoped the landlord— if there even was a landlord, that is— didn't mind him carving runes onto his door. It was only a precaution, after all, and they certainly weren’t permanent, or anything silly like that. He could call them off any time he’d like.

Would he? 

...Well, that's a very different question, now is it?

He stepped back to admire his work. A circle of intricate shimmering orange runes burned on the door’s grainy and flimsy wood, interlacing with each other to weave his desires into the very fabric of the door, then, as if touched by a soft breeze, simply... dying away. 

Just another ordinary door. Cáel, of course, knew better, smirking at the faint ghostly image that still lingered on thr wood.

It was a simple abjuration, quite easy to visualize, you see, even for a amatuer like himself — just imagine everyone except yourself (and servant, he supposed, though he might need to place a conditional geas for that one) being pushed out.

Magic was a rather imprecise science, really, when you thought about it that way. 

He didn't know if it could stop the kind of people that lurked in this city— well, actually he did, and the answer was a very solid no— but, at the very least, it could buy him some time, and that time could make all the difference in the world.

“Alright,” Cáel murmured, turning towards the sliding door to the porch. "Now, the porch...” He didn't know why they put a porch in this room, now that he thought about it. The only thing it overlooked was a scenic alleyway. How charming.

 Cáel slid the door open, then froze. 

Something was moving on the roof across from him.

Stepping back, he squinted, and then sighed, feeling rather silly.

That ‘something’ was a young girl, no older than fourteen, from the looks of it, sitting on the roof’s edge. 

...But, there was a golden radiance about her, far too regal, too strong, for someone of her age, and— and what? It flickered just out of his sight, a darkness, as black as oil, dripping with contempt, but— what was it? He wasn't sure. He wasn't sure it had been there at all. 

Maybe it was just the dark. 

Maybe he was just seeing things.

He didn't usually see things.

Guarded, but not so guarded— powerful or not, she was still just a girl, after all, and he at least felt very certain about that— Cáel stepped out onto the porch and leaned over the railing, looking up at her. “Seems a little late to be having an adventure, don't you think?”

Dangerous, maybe, but even dangerous children were still children. They held no hate in their heart. Not yet, at least.

...He hoped.

“Stargazing, maybe?” He added with a smile, craning his neck to see if any were out tonight. Not a one. Hm, reminded him of home — too much of home. 

“Bit too smoggy for that, I’m afraid.”

Lost in Space 01

Hello, Isolans! We have conducted an activity check for the month of July!

The blogs that were removed from the Isola Radiale masterlist are under the cut. Note that both blogs with broken links and deactivated accounts will be included both at the top of this list and in their proper categories.

If you were removed in error, please simply send a re-application message. Several different people work on the activity checks, so it’s possible there are mistakes! If this happens to you, you will be able to keep everything you previously had, you just may be placed in a different residence.

Our general activity rules are as follows:

Make at least three in-character posts during a calendar month.

Only one drabble and/or meme response of 300+ words counts as activity.

One-liners or minis not tagged #isola mini also do not count.

Please Note: If you are removed during two consecutive activity checks, you will not be allowed to re-apply as that character for two calendar months.

Additionally, anyone removed during the activity check will have a 12-hour window from the time of posting to re-claim their character. Any character not re-claimed will be open to the community at large.

@abyssalribbons liked.

« &. || The train is an interesting sort of environment, Phillip thinks to himself.  All sorts of people come off and on, sometimes they make a fuss and do stupid shit, sometimes everything is deathly silent except for the cheery automated voice reminding the public of the next stop––and everything is contained and isolated from the outside world.

        Now, of course, this isolation makes it kind of frightening when someone unnerving sits right next to you, he also thinks, glancing for a moment at the otherworldly-seeming little girl beside him.  Her countenance is one of someone far wiser––and probably far more competent––than she looks, and he does not appreciate that one bit.  

STEALTH CHECK: 18

        Being as quiet and smooth as possible, he scoots down a chair, moving toward the window seat and leaving space between them.  His eyes look forward, but she stays in his peripheral vision, and he watches her from it to make sure that he’s been successful.

Late Night Stroll [Riful]

abyssalribbons

Parker’s new job at the casino meant he’d be working late nights from here on out. He didn’t mind much since he was one for late nights anyways - it sure beat the boredom of laying around scribbling angsty nonsense in the small worn-down journal he’d bought for fifty cents the day after his arrival. He walked out from the train station in sector six, all daylight now below the horizon. Sparse streetlights were all that lit the way back to his apartment complex. Nighttime was always dangerous in his city back home, and despite how safe-looking this sector may have seemed he was still incredibly on edge. He stopped two steps out into the intersection, catching himself from making his usual day-time short cut through the park. It would cut his walking time in half, but did he really want to risk it?
