[ I can't eat right now, haven't eaten much today, I have been drinking water to try and calm down but it's not helping ]

[ When I'm stressed, usually my cat is there for me, he isn't right now though and I don't want to go force him up here ]

[ For clarification no he's not dead, he's just not up here right now ]

[ Honestly he's the reason I haven't given up completely yet ]

raz dnd 22

spooky themed dnd for late halloween joy!

spingledorf goes up to senna and says he fucking dug up methods to soothe her blood. '...soothe how?' oh no. he taps his staff on the ground and makes a magic circle. senna gives teya a glance and walks into the circle. no one else thinks its a good idea oh no. wheatley says he shouldnt do this while super charged, but it doesnt require his magic, just hers.

senna gets into a meditative position. wheatley steps closer but says nothing. teya is frantically taking notes (kay is eating pizza lol) senna focuses on the magic power flowing within her. the circle is glowing more. she can feel the draconic power surge. shes really hot rn! she imagines this power is a mighty dragon she must tame and equalize with. dont retaliate too hard itll fight back equally hard.

parsley fucking walks away the fucker. the dragon charges but senna wakes up before it hits. she has to meditatite like this more often. spingledorf gives her a rug of the magic circle to use. he suddenly clutches his chest oh no! he coughs up blood oh no! mortals shouldnt NOT have that shit. he expels the rest of the energy and it has some blood on it. its also a bit smaller. wheatley pokes the ball lol. senna messages parsley that he coughed up the god ball. she also uses cure wounds on dorf. senna says if you make the energy pill sized maybe that will work better. wheatley wants the orb dorf says no lol.

he puts a little barrier around the orb and lets wheatley observe it. SP calls it a tiny star. wheatley uses a magnifying glass! hes gonna share his observations with teya. android calls us all morons lol. hes not exactly wrong. senna still goes with splitting the orb into small pieces for efficiency and safety. dorf is gigabraining about making a storage device for a body. dorf tells wheatley what the orb. wheatley wonders if it can be used to make other things and wants a small amount if dorf can ever split it. wheatley really wants to use it and study it.

dorf offers to tell us info while he studies this. dorf doesnt want us risking our lives on his behalf. he needs to stay safe too. dorf tells wheatley he isnt expendable and he should see his own value. he goes to look for parsley. 'may the wind be at your back spingledorf.' dorf fights to come up with a comeback xD senna uses presti on him to clean him up a bit. he just flies away lol.

parsley sees a big old house on the side of the path in a clearing. sus. he hears someone tapping on a window? a lights on. banging on a door. a sign asking for help. he goes to listen to the window on the second floor. he hears a bunch of footsteps and struggling and dragging and stuff. he smashes the window open. the house goes still. he fucking leaves! the lights all go on and the house is alive.

MONSTER HOUSE! carpet tongue grabs parsley and tries to drag him in! its a giant fucking mimic! failed, he gets pulled in through the door. its gonna eat his dumbass.

wheatley also finds the house. it looks normal. he can hear parsley screaming lol. parsley just flies above its mouth since the house is stupid. parsley yells out to wheatley the house is evil. the house goes to normal. parsley comments the wallpaper is nice lol. front door is locked. wheatley lets us know while parsley looks for a way out.

teya "are you fucking kidding me?" evil how? parsley finds a bunch of mannequins. he stabs one lol then goes upstairs. parsley tells wheatley it tried to eat him. teya tells us and senna comments she didnt know mimics could get that big.

parsley sees lots of doors. he goes to open a door. its stuck. its also a mimic. parsley is so fucking mad. wheatley tells us lol. android says of course parsley would get eaten by a giant mimic. parsley gets bit cool. we uh havent long rested yet. so uh. yeah.

wheatley is trying to break down the door as we arrive. teya firebolts the door. the home is mad again lol. wheatley and teya are stuck to the porch the idiots. the doors stop chewing parsley and spit him out and hide. rug grabs teya! senna firebolts it and it screams and lets go. the floor starts moving teya closer inside, cheater. senna tells parsley the house is eating teya. a big eye looks at parsley on the stairs and it turns into a slope. he starts flying lol. the tongue smacks parsley! senna keeps firebolting the house.

parsley flies out and tries to pull teya off while teya fireballs into the house. it lets teya go as it screams and coughs in pain. teya gets the fuck out of there. android is just annoyed lol. senna keeps launching attacks on the house. IT STANDS TF UP. wheatley shoots it in the leg! we back up after SP and teya attack lol. stupid fuckin house. wheatley tries to get behind it to shoot it in the knee, barely avoiding the tongue. senna firebolts the tongue again cause fuck you. wheatley failed.

its still chasing us. it stomps senna the bitch. teya firebolts again. some of the house melts a bit ew. wheatley shocks it. and now his hands are stuck great. hes gonna keep shocking it lol. a giant acid hurls at teya! half damage. wheatley is gonna get bit wtf. parsley tries to fly in and pull wheatley off. bad fail. he moved out of the way. wheatley zaps again. it tries to bite him! teya is using her weird wand! it passed the con save fuck. wheatley gets chomped. he shocks it again.

it spits acid at senna! half damage. fuck you house. firebolt fucker. android finally joins in and shoots it. its on fire nice. wheatley keeps on shocking! the tongue tries to grab parsley again. senna crits the tongue again get tf out of here. parsley tries to free wheatley again. fail. it starts piling acid in front of wheatley fuck. fuck this house fuck you raz. he shocks it on reflex.

parsley fails again goddamn. teya firebolts the leg again. zen goes to try and save wheatley. yay he freed him! burnt handprint nice. wheatley takes out his gun. teya dodges getting stomped. then gets his on the second. senna and android are doing nice damage and the fucker buckles to its knees. teya also shoots it! parsley starts stabbing it in the roof lol. wheatley shoots!

it collapses fucking finally! the other mimics fucking flee. wheatley kicks it and parsley is just laughing. wheatley gets sent to eeby deeby goddamn. were just confused about the house lol. teya calls parsley a dumbass lol. senna asks why he went, its cause he thought someone was in danger. zen jars wheatley lol. senna is very against camping in the mimics corpse lol. parsley says too bad and goes in ew. teya also agrees. sigh. senna will meditiate after doing her dragon training. parsley makes a hole for SP to see stars lol. theres a tiny jewerly box outside? teya uses detect magic. parsley opens it lol. tiny mimic. he slams it closed and yeets it into a wall. it screams and runs away. parsley says its kinda cute. he manages to catch it! pet baby mimic!

he names it rouge lol. he tries to feed it, but its scared. he apologizes for hitting it into the wall. it finally eats.

sennas once more face to face with the dragon. she tries to mentally get the ground to raise her. the dragon keeps its distance and swirls around her. she follows its flight path. she dodges a fireball and keeps moving toward the dragon. it dives! she dives right back at it! headon! shes woken up again dammit. her scales have shrunk a little. she examines them wondering whats happening.

she puts the rug away. zen and android are just sitting at the fire. she slowly approaches the fire and says she has something to say. "I...really didnt like it. when your voices were disappearing." shes pacing really hard rn lol. "I would say im sorry but that feels condescending." why is senna so hard to write lol. "I um ill do my best to um prevent that from happening again. And i want to say that i...i would be sad if you disappeared. I know that doesnt mean much but...please try not to." she bows and quickly whips around and heads into the house, red faced. she curls up by teya.

teya wakes up but pretends to still be asleep when she sees senna there. she doesnt notice anything xD parsley wakes up and grumbles its too early. he looks for rouge. he smirks and teya and tells them to wake up. android aims his gun at rouge lol. parsley says hes keeping it its his daughter now.

senna and teya get up and senna shows what happaned to her scales. "its not like spingledorf gave me instructions." he fucking messages her lol. the circle should help and soothe her mood swings. nice. she just blinks and tells teya. "maybe its correlated?" senna shrugs and braids teya's hair. SP calls rouge a baby lol.

teya happily tells teya parsley is keeping a mimic. senna is fucking exasperated. "did he hit his head?" senna follows teya to get some soup! rouge shivers whenever parsley picks it up its traumatized good job. senna is just so flummoxed at this tiny mimic. daddy parsley! were trying to give him parenting advice!

we hear teya's message! sunnie says something wrong with smierc. senna says maybe its cirmes? senna and parsley both comment that smierc and cirmes have the same letters. senna offers to write some letters to doctors and see if someone will go visit. teya is quite worried. senna reminds her about the apothecary guy. teya says he might need some rest.

senna goes to exercise, teya writes, and parsley sunbathes. the calm. teya goes to bother parsley. sennas exercise slowly turns from normal exercise into a waltz lol. (dumbass fey siblings are unsupervised)

zen calls out to senna saying they wouldnt have disappeared like wheatley. she skids to a halt. zen says as long as their souls remain they would still be alive. so she wont worry so much. "of course im going to worry." android snarks she should look out for herself first. senna says everyone else needs her help first, she takes care of herself just fine. zen warns her not to put everyones needs before her own. "I guess thats the thing, i dont have any needs. Sorry to disappoint you." "I think its you think your needs are less important. So you ignore them." "I simply prioritize. Thats all."

"I feel as if your friends would disagree with your priorities." they still appreciate the concern and they will be fine. senna faces them with a tear running down her face. "My friends are dead because of my priorities, that will not happen again." she turns and starts leaving. "I thought that was the case." Senna freezes for a moment, then hurries away faster.

MEANWHILE parsley and teya had snuck behind the house. they didnt hear anything thank god. we see smoke behind the house? zen sighs and goes to check. teya is currently hurling firebolts at the house. parsley is using a torch on it. why.... teya fucking scattered xD parsley keeps torching the mimic. zen tells him the fire could spread to the forest. 'fuck the forest!' thank you teya. parsley goes inside and continues to set fires. dammit parsley. teya comments she wants to set 1 tree on fire. parsley says no stupid. zen sighs and heads back.

teya wants to make fun of sunnies book with parsley lol. parsley says to subject everyone else too it too. they head back to camp and forcibly read the book outloud to the bots lol. parsley is dying of laughter. 'it lived in the feywilds.' teya starts breaking down the chapter lol. android grumbles them to read quietly. nope its specifically to annoy them! he grabs it and tosses it into the fire. "hey! i wanted to do that. i memorized the first passage!" parsley mumbles hes gonna get senna and walks away. weird.

senna is just. standing in a field. her back is to him. he calls out to her. she doesnt respond. he calls again. no response. and again. he pokes her. she slowy turns around and looks....empty inside. he awkwardly asks if shes ok. she says yes and just heads back. he awkwardly follows. teya definitely notices somethings wrong. she tries to hold her hand. shes not stopped, but not reciprocated either. SP plants itself right on her foot lol.

zen walks over and asks if shes ok. no response. he grabs her shoulder and tells her this isnt the right way to do these things. no response. rouge is awkwardly standing there with rouge. he speaks up and asks if she needs space. no response. (senna wtf is wrong with you) parsley starts shaking her like a ragdoll. "senna wake tf up!" teya asks who broke her. android sighs and smacks senna in the back of the head. theres a pause and she curls over "fuck why did you hit me?!" she looks normal now lol just confused how she got back here. she just doesnt remember and asks to get moving. android asks if its gonna happen again. "i guess well see." for a split second he sees her eyes go dead, but only for a second. teya says thats enough acting weird for 1 day. now their arguing about the burning mimic lol.

android threatens to hug them if they shove him into a fire xD sennas just enjoying them talking. no ones been shot yet! teya misses her book copy lol. senna suddenly remembers and gives parsley a bunch of random clothes she grabbed from silk and velvets. hes a bit overwhelmed lol. parsley comments if they should stop the house fire. senna starts using frost on the house. continuing onward!

senna carries SP. parsley uses magic to predict the weather. 'ok weather boy.' teya wants to play ispy nice. SP asks what ispy is. watch and learn buddy. parsley spies something with a B. teya says bitch and points at android. yep xD SP spies something yellow. "is it the sun?" "YES!" good job teya. teya spies another b! SP points at parsley and says bastard? close, it was bottom! "whats a bottom?" "ill tell you when your older." SP spies an S. "the sky?" "YES!" good job parsley. they remind android hes not playing and cant have an opinion. parsley spies a D. SP says dirt good job. SP spies T. nope not teya. its trees good job teya. teya spies C. clouds? good job parsley.

teya asks senna to come play. senna says shes never played before. shes never heard of it lol. she didnt 'play' as a child. 'could make up for lost time?' 'i might be too old for that.' 'never too old!' tori also did arson lol. their trying to make SP into an arsonist lol. parsley asks zen if he wants to play. yay! parsley spies an r. senna says a raccoon cause she sees one but nope. its robot good job zen.

zen spies an m. senna just keeps guessing. "I dont have to see it. He has to." no hints dammit. parsley flies into the air lol. not the map either lol. teya gives parsley a hint its a mushroom xD senna goes! she sees a b! she says it has to do with plants. its bark good job teya! teya also spies a b! we get the hint of 'hard'. senna got boulder good job!

senna tried to pass it to parsley but he refused so she spies an a. acorn good job zen. he takes out his lute and just plays. senna goes to play but changes her mind. parsley stares at the lute and gets quiet. zens lute glows with magic and he fuckin flies wtf. he DID get it from spingledorf. he tries to get parsley to fly up and dance lol. senna secretly messaging teya lol. parsley is a bit insulted by zen.

zen says he once visited a city in the clouds. senna opens her mouth to say something but stops. she still feels awkward. parsley asks how a city was up there. he didnt ask, fucker. lots of windmills. somehow they grew lots of plants up there, just very little land. he offers to take us when we kill zorbolt. parsleys eye is twitching because of teya.

zen asks android to come explore with him. maybe yay! zen asks teya what her plan is after zorbolt and flies right by her. she came looking for adventure so she doesnt know. he offers to take her with him. teya says after zorbolt then they can decide. now he asks senna. she goes where shes needed. to help. "make sure to take some me time." her face darkens for a second. "ive had enough me time." he sighs and goes to parsley. hes gonna just explore the material plane, wont travel with zen. 'lone wolf type?' senna comments lone wolves die alone. zen says he runs into people in his journey, eventually they go their own paths. zen comments parsley is always running from something. sennas head whips around and stares at him. 'maybe i just like my privacy.' he says he wasnt trying to dig and says it feels like that for all of us, the fucker. not teya shes an open book lol.

teya asks what he notices. perhaps best to leave parsley alone he says lol. hes used to paying attention to people since the other bots dont know social etiquette in the godspace. he teaches them. studies cultures. teya calls that people watching. zen interacts though. this was when bots still wandered outside. teya messages zen oooo. she wants to know what he notices about her. shrugging lol. he also wont say about the others lol. sometimes he fails to think before he speaks. she goes back to bothering parsley lol.

he tells teya to stfu lol. shes so nosy. android tells them to shut up. senna sets SP down and it starts wandering around. zen tells teya to let things rest for now. 'a better person might.' 'i think you can be the better person.' nope. parsley is so mad lol. 'i thought fey didnt lie?' hes ignoring her. something about the book. senna comments wheatley has his book. zen says the book must not be very good.

teya threatens to go into the feywilds. parsley says she wont last a day. oh no. challenge accepted. fuck. senna and zen also say no. too dangerous. parsley remarks teya stole zens name once lol. he didnt recognize her as a fey lol. senna tells teya maybe it was a name in the book and she fucking says it too. he grits his teeth and storms off. 'thats not a no.' theres only 1 name in the book. zen and senna ponder dorf being in the feywilds. teya says she didnt get to the feywilds. the fire happaned and tori and sunnie said no.

perhaps something is drawing her to the feywilds. maybe her mom made a deal. oh yeah she did lol. teya definitely shouldnt go. what if teya is a means to an end? zen asks why shes not too worried. teya there are worser things that can and will happen. zen says she has a bad imagination. shes too young and hasnt seen the world. she needs to be worried.

parsley is just being quiet lol. senna quietly mumbles under her breath 'a means to an end...' parsley says when he was a kid his sister was gifted a pet. it was a kid. they didnt even understand he was a kid. they didnt speak much since he didnt speak much common. he was scared and parsley didnt know why. then he grew up and died. quickly by his standards. thats why parsley hates it. then he clams back up.

zen stares at him. parsley just keeps walking. teya is also shut up. at that moment, a glowing cube comes to teya! theres an item and a note. it fucking speaks. its from spingledorf. its an item lets her directly message dorf or summon him if needed. a magical stone with 2 buttons on it. nice.

zen comments that teya wants to be dorfs apprentice. go for it teya! adventure! teya accidentally presses the summon but its an answering machine lol.

[hermiones-amortentia]

This is for people who think Ron and Hermione had no intellectual debates or Ron can't stimulate her intellectually. Here their intellectual debates in the books-

1. House elves

“They’re hats for house-elves,” she said briskly, now stuffing her books back into her bag. “I did them over the summer. I’m a really slow knitter without magic, but now I’m back at school I should be able to make lots more.”

“You’re leaving out hats for the house-elves?” said Ron slowly. “And you’re covering them up with rubbish first?”

“Yes,” said Hermione defiantly, swinging her bag onto her back.

“That’s not on,” said Ron angrily. “You’re trying to trick them into picking up the hats. You’re setting them free when they might not want to be free.”

Ron is the only one that confronts Hermione about SPEW and really engages into it (So that its clear: Hermione defends that the elves should be free at all costs, Ron says they should be aware and included in this choice = two points of view, both defended = intellectual debate)

.

.

.

2. Discussing the ministry

“It could be a frame-up!” Ron exclaimed excitedly. “No — listen!”

he went on, dropping his voice dramatically at the threatening look on Hermione’s face. “The Ministry suspects he’s one of Dumbledore’s lot so — I dunno — they lured him to the Ministry, and he wasn’t trying to get through a door at all! Maybe they’ve just made something up to get him!”

There was a pause while Harry and Hermione considered this.

Harry thought it seemed far-fetched; Hermione, on the other hand, looked rather impressed and said, “Do you know, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if that were true.”

Ron =shows how it could have been a frame-up and presents evidence; Hermione =considers his side and changes her mind; they were discussing something and reached an agreement over facts = intellectual

.

.

.

3. In the creation of the DA, we see Harry behaving quite emotionally (understandable but this does not qualify, using your definition, as intellectual). Ron and Hermione make their case for why he should be the teacher and basically organize the entire thing themselves

“Let’s think,” he said, pulling a face like Goyle concentrating. “Uh . . .

first year — you saved the Stone from You-Know-Who.”

‘ “But that was luck,” said Harry, “that wasn’t skil —”

“Second year,” Ron interrupted, “you killed the basilisk and destroyed Riddle.”

“Yeah, but if Fawkes hadn’t turned up I —”

“Third year,” said Ron, louder still, “you fought off about a hundred dementors at once —”

“Ron and I have been sounding out people who we thought might want to learn some proper Defense Against the Dark Arts, and there are a couple who seem interested. We’ve told them to meet us in Hogsmeade”

Hermione and Ron recruited and organized everything for the DA

.

.

.

4. Discussing Dumbledore and Snape

“I did think he might be a bit better this year,” said Hermione in a disappointed voice. “I mean . . . you know . . .” She looked carefully around; there were half a dozen empty seats on either side of them and nobody was passing the table. “. . . Now he’s in the Order and everything.”

“Poisonous toadstools don’t change their spots,” said Ron sagely.”

“Anyway, I’ve always thought Dumbledore was cracked trusting Snape, where’s the evidence he ever really stopped working for You-Know-Who?”

“I think Dumbledore’s probably got plenty of evidence”

.

.

.

5. Sirius death

They stayed together in the Hospital Wing for weeks and it can be correctly inferred that this was discussed given their behavior towards Harry

“Ron and Hermione left the hospital wing completely cured three days before the end of term. Hermione showed signs of wanting to talk about Sirius, but Ron tended to make hushing noises every time she mentioned his name”

.

.

.

6. Mad-Eye’s death and the 7 Potters mission

“Oh, Ron’s mum forgot that she asked Ginny and me to change the sheets yesterday,” said Hermione. She threw Numerology and Grammatica onto one pile and The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts onto the other.

“We were just talking about Mad-Eye,” Ron told Harry.

.

.

.

7. Hermione’s parents and the Ghoul (they planned and prepared for the mission together)

“Didn’t realize that Ron and I know perfectly well what might happen if we come with you? Well, we do. Ron, show Harry what you’ve done.”

“Nah, he’s just eaten,” said Ron.

“Go on, he needs to know!”

“Oh, all right. Harry, come here.”

.

.

.

8. How to destroy Horcruxes

“Hang on,” said Ron, frowning. “The bit of soul in that diary was possessing Ginny, wasn’t it? How does that work, then?”

“While the magical container is still intact, the bit of soul inside it can flit in and out of someone if they get too close to the object. I don’t mean holding it for too long, it’s nothing to do with touching it,” she added before Ron could speak. “I mean close emotionally. Ginny poured her heart out into that diary, she made herself incredibly vulnerable. You’re in trouble if you get too fond of or dependent on the Horcrux.”

.

.

.

9. Hallows x Horcruxes

“Well, I don’t suppose it matters,” sighed Hermione. “Even if he was being honest, I never heard such a lot of nonsense in all my life.”

“Hang on, though,” said Ron. “The Chamber of Secrets was supposed to be a myth, wasn’t it?”

“But the Deathly Hallows can’t exist, Ron!”

“You keep saying that, but one of them can,” said Ron. “Harry’s Invisibility Cloak —”

.

.

.

10. Formulating a plan to keep Hermione safe

“Ron glanced at Hermione, then said, “What if purebloods and half-bloods swear a Muggle-born’s part of their family? I’ll tell everyone Hermione’s my cousin —”

Hermione covered Ron’s hand with hers and squeezed it.

“Thank you, Ron, but I couldn’t let you —”

“You won’t have a choice,” said Ron fiercely, gripping her hand back. “I’ll teach you my family tree so you can answer questions on it.

Hermione gave a shaky laugh.

“Ron, as we’re on the run with Harry Potter, the most wanted person in the country, I don’t think it matters. If I was going back to school it would be different. What’s Voldemort planning for Hogwarts?” she asked Lupin.”

.

.

.

11. Off page discussion

“What’s happened?” Ron asked apprehensively. He and Hermione had been poring over a sheaf of scribbled notes and hand-drawn maps that littered the end of the long kitchen table, but now they watched Harry as he strode toward them and threw down the newspaper on top of their scattered parchment.”

12. Off page (2)

“You can’t tell me you’ve stopped having funny dreams,” Hermione said now, “because Ron told me last night you were muttering in your sleep again. . . .”

Harry threw Ron a furious look. Ron had the grace to look ashamed of himself.

“You were only muttering a bit,” he mumbled apologetically.”

Yet another evidence of their connection and off-page discussions

“Neither Ron nor Hermione spoke, but Harry felt sure that they were looking at each other behind his back, communicating silently.”

.

.

.

Ron and Hermione have emotional AND intellectual discussions throughout the series. So if you think Ron can't stimulate her intellectually you havent read the books. 😊

127 SQUAD AND ROMANTIC BF TINGS

tw a lil bit of suggestive on jae's but nothing explicit

✰ — TAEIL would sing lullabies over the phone or video call. you and him would just be doing your own thing, not talking but enjoying being each other's presence. he'll probably pull out his guitar and start singing random songs until he eventually notices you fell asleep on him. will not end the call and when you wake up in the morning, his snores and his cute sleeping face is the first thing you see. "love? you still there? ... taeil?" then laugh out loud when you hear his snores instead. "okay yeah lets sleep more" the call will only end probably because his phone died. he kinda strikes me as a guy who's phone is always < 50% battery lmao

✰ — JOHNNY is your everything. literally. as long as he has the power of youtube, google, and instruction manuals on his side, he can fix anything and everything for you. we've all seen him do crafty things on jcc lmao so it'll probably apply to relationships as well. will 100% say you now owe him cuddles for fixing something for you. you kinda dont like the fact that he's doing all these things for you so you try doing them on your own without him knowing only to fail big time. "what did we learn today?" "never touch the pipes under the sink" "and?" "and always ask johnny for help" "nuh-uh thats not how i said it" you sigh exasperatedly "always let my smokin hot amazing handsome boyfriend johnny suh get the job done"

✰ — TAEYONG doesn't care whether you take the time shopping or not. in fact, he loves seeing you all excited and giddy for pampering yourself as you should. totally the type to hold the paper bags even if you complain and say you can manage on your own. is a complete angel and will wait patiently outside changing rooms and will give you genuine insight he has of the clothes you picked. "that looks nice. you should get that. the length is just right and the sleeves help accentuate your waist" "really yongie?" "yes love. i mean you look pretty in everything anyway" miss ma'am my heart just fucking melted ?¿?

✰ — YUTA doesn't look like it but will exert real effort into things. would be the type to have a note or a google doc about your favorite orders from restaurants because he just loves how your eyes light up appreciatively and you look so smitten by him. its like a cheat sheet. eventually he memorizes the list with how much time he spends with you and he wont even need it. the type to always bring you food before meeting you (if its just hanging out inside the house). "no way! i was just craving for these!" he smiles before kissing your forehead, volunteering to put the food out its container for you. "i figured. you'd been working since this afternoon. lets eat first then you can tell me about what you've been working on so i can help you, okay?"

✰ — DOYOUNG loves cooking for you. i highkey feel like its his love language? like cooking for you and seeing your eyes light up as it darts back to him after you take your first bite from whatever he cooked just gives him so much happiness. its disgustingly sappy and he doesn't like talking about it. now he understood fully what it meant to see your loved ones eating and being full yourself or some shit. idk how the actual quote goes okay dont come 4 me but u probably get it. anyway the type to always pack you lunch and will get hella mad if you skip meals. "what do you mean you havent eaten yet?" "yeah but i will after i--" "you mean you're going to eat Now?" "what? no maybe later--" "thats it im coming over"

✰ — JAEHYUN would be the type to make you playlists. its really random sometimes he'll send them to you in the early morning for the heck of it bc he cant sleep. most of the time its him being horny lmao the frat boy in him awakening and sending you a playlist called imma blow your back out or something extremely cringey and thirsty pls dont block his sorry ass maybe he'd spell out the words using song titles too! idk jae just rlly strikes me as a guy who's love language is music. "hey babe did you check the playlist i sent you?" "wtf its 4am???" "oh so you havent listened to it yet?" "fuck off" but at the end of the day he'll come over and will use the playlist to,,, you know,,, do the sexy thing ;)

✰ — JUNGWOO always makes sure you walk on the inside of the road. you know when you're walking in the street and he softly nudges your waist? yes. will probably even scold you playfully because with how long its been since you both are together, "babe you always walk on the inside of the road how many times do i have to tell you?" is also the type to remind you to wear your seatbelt immediately after hopping onto his car. would ask you Again while in the middle of the car ride because he forgot that he already asked you earlier. please don't mind him he's just looking out for you bb. "seatbelt?" "yes, babe. already done" "are you sure? i dont think i heard it click--" "babe eyes on the road please" "oh right sorry"

✰ — MARK sends you tiktoks, vines, or memes. this is his love language fite me im calling it. he just wants to see you laugh too okay? thats why he does it. i mean it made him laugh, so maybe it will you laugh too. also because he hopes to make inside jokes with u cuz he believes thats how people really get close and stuff. would definitely love it if you do the same thing with him. you'd be chilling in the sofa while khalid plays on the bluetooth speaker and he'll suddenly go "babe babe babe check this out!" then you both proceed to laugh at a vine for the next thirty minutes <3 #living.the.yn.life

✰ — HAECHAN will do your skincare for you when you're drunk or super tired that you just passed out cold on the bed. would probably come into the room to see you snoring and tutting bc now he has to do it for you again but meh deep down he loves it because he enjoys admiring your sleeping face. its sorta like a healing thing for him? yeah it just washes away all the stress he's feeling and bb is just excited about the idea that this becomes "your thing" with him if u get what im saying? altho the next day he'll probably use it as a leverage to get out of chores :) "no way im not folding our clothes" "and why is that?" "i took your make up off yesterday u know how hard that is? im still tired" "but its literally the next day--" "awww thank you for doing my chores, baby! u the best!" ._.

Mermaid!Jungkook x Reader [Part 2]

Trapped in this life of expensive wine and judgemental eyes Y/N met an unusual lady who offered her a job at an aquarium a few towns away. Despite being hesitant and uncertain for the future she decided to take the offer as it was her only way out, not knowing that many dangers might come her way.

Jungkook swam his way through the small tunnel in wonder. He didn’t realise what he was ‘walking’ into as he took the entire night to explore a tunnel. He thought it might lead to you, how naive. It is only when he heard the piercing sound of drilling from the small tunnel entrance did he know what was happening, he was trapped. With that, his instincts took over.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You awoke abruptly as a slam of the car door next to you made you nearly jump from your seat. You sat up and looked around as Julie stepped out of the car onto the wet road. Your head feeling cloudy as you noticed you were parked in a parking lot next to a tall building in the middle of the bustling city. Your eyes then followed Julie who walked across the road towards a small bakery. You could smell the food from here as your stomach grumbled loudly. You closed your eyes again, hearing the cars go past as their tires hit the puddles on the ground. The distant honk of horns and the bus going past made you feel somewhat tranquil, wanting to stay like that forever. You were ready to go back to sleep before the sound of the car door opening made your eyes open again.

"Oh, so you're finally awake?" Julie looks towards you with a smile on her face as she ducks her head under the car roof and gets in. She closes the door firmly beside her, with a bag of pastries in her hand.

"Uh yeah I guess. How long was I asleep for?" You don't even look in her direction as you rub your eyes, feeling sleep try to invite you in once more.

"No more than a few hours, although we are just about there. We are staying at my place for a while. Just out of the city in Taelin Shore" (I made it up with the idea of "Tail", it's not a ship name). She looked at you, shaking the bag of pastries in her hand that you didn't even notice till now.

"So when do I start work?" You look at the pastries and then back at her, wanting to focus on what's important. She places the pastries on the backseat and starts the engine, before driving out of the parking lot.

"Well, you will have an orientation on Monday at the aquarium which starts at 9 am till 2 pm. It's only small but I think it's just for showing you the ropes and letting you explore the building." She continues to drive out of the city down the coast, heading for Taelin Shore.

"Wait Monday? That's only three days away. They didn't even give me an interview yet" It seemed unreal at the most, how could they have that much faith in you?

"They don't need an interview. I told you, I know the owner. He trusts my word more than anyone." She smiles, the brown locks of her hair tied back into a messy bun, something you never thought she would wear. At the dinner party, she seemed so elegantly dressed like the other woman there. It was weird to see her in casual clothes and indulging in sweet pastries.

You look at her once more in disbelief, feeling hesitant about this situation. "I barely know you. I heard that you knew my mother but forgive me if that in itself makes me even more concerned". She chuckles slightly, gripping the wheel tightly as she turns another corner. "You might barely know me, but I was around ever since you were born. I just want to help you. I love your mother, but she puts too much pressure on you."

You sighed as you looked out the window realising you reached the coast of Taelin. It seemed beautiful and serene as you drove through the town, going past, looking at the view of the ocean. You were excited but nervous. What if you don't like it here? What if it is the same as back home? A place that kills every  good part of you, forcing you to feel paranoid about everyone you meet? You didn't want to be near that. You wanted to be free. 

Your thoughts were interrupted by the car going up the hill on a small dirt path and parking next to a small beach house that was facing the ocean. "We're here, how do you like it? Nice view huh?" Julie smiles in awe as she exits the car, slamming the car door behind her. You do the same as you both look out towards the view of the vast ocean and the mountains that surround the small town.

Julie points down towards the pier urging you to look over to see a massive building next to the docks. "That's where you will be working in the next couple of days." She smiles, "don't worry, everyone's friendly. It's different here".

You look over at her in doubt, "What about you? How do I know you're different than the rest of them back at home?".

She chuckles before turning back towards you, "I got you out, didn't I?" she pats your shoulder before heading inside. She leaves you with your thoughts.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[6:43 am]

It was early in the morning, the light from the sun started to shine in your room as you soon noticed that you - again - forgot to close the curtains. Although awake, instead of you getting up to close them, you laid there for a while. The sound of the waves crashing was distant, but you could almost feel the pressure and the weight of the water crashing onto the rocks. You imagined what it would be like to be that rock, every day having to go through the same cycle. Every morning the tide would try and crash down and attempting to break through on the rocks until it is time for the water to come back in. The water could never break the rocks, perhaps that was even more torture.

You sighed, not even understanding your own thoughts sometimes. You groan as you get up from the warm and comforting bed, heading towards the shower. You undressed and turned the shower on, watching the steam build-up in the room, covering the mirror. You preferred hot showers.

After your shower, you left to walk along the beach. Upon stepping outside the two-story house, you feel a gush of wind. The cold pierces your body as the wind flutters through your clothes. You walk down the steps of the patio and walk over to the edge of the cliff, looking down at the water that once again crashes through the rocks violently.

You weren't afraid of the ocean and had spent your whole life in the water. Although, something didn't feel right here. You watched the water down below. I looked peaceful yet restless. With every second it became more violent, the clouds grew dark quickly, and you noticed a drop of water fall onto your forehead. You sighed and looked back down the cliff before seeing a small splash in the water and something with a scaly body. But it was nothing like what you had seen at the aquarium. You felt yourself getting dizzy and started to wonder when the last time you had eaten something. You cursed under your breath for rejecting those pastries Julie got yesterday. You stumbled, backwards and forwards as your vision started to spin. The dark cloud's now covering the sky completely. You had tried to balance yourself, but you had ended up stepping forward to much, descending over the cliff and crashing down into the ocean. Your vision went black.

The water was cold, too cold. You felt the cold sinking into your skin, grasping onto your bones, coating them in ice. You didn't bother to open your eyes as you felt yourself crashing in and out of the water. You could hear the waves and thunder as you reach the surface, before getting pulled under again. Suddenly strong arms wrapped around you from behind. Your toes and the back of your thighs could feel the slimy tail that was swaying beneath the surface. You tried to look over at what has a hold of you. Although it was strong, and you could barely move your body. You could feel its cold hands enveloping around your chest and your waist as your body swayed in the current. You could feel its hot breath on your neck whispering things in your ear before you passed out from exhaustion.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Two days later]

Monday - 8:45 am

The morning was quick, slipping your shoes on as you try to make your way down the stairs of the beach house into the lounge room. You couldn't stop thinking about that day. The day where you

woke up on the beach and Julie insisted on calling the doctor even though you assured her everything was fine. It was surprising, to say the least, that you didn't even get hurt. There were tons of rocks as the current was nearly ripping you apart. That was before that thing showed up. It felt like death was surrounding you. Ironic really that it may have saved your life.  

"Hurry up Y/N, I told them you'd be there by 9. You're lucky we don't live far away from the Aquarium". Julie watches you run around the house as you find your bag and keys. You ignore her comments as you rush out the door towards the car, opening the passenger side and getting in.  

"Why don't you let me drive?" You groan, looking at your watch. She gets in beside you and starts the car. "Because dear Y/N, you’re impulsive and from what I heard, it took you seven times before you passed your driving test and you haven't driven since." You roll your eyes as she drives down the dirt road and onto the main road.

You look out towards the ocean, seeing the waves crash onto the rocks on the mountains, slamming on the rocks violently. Your mind wandered for a bit. You could almost feel the hot breath against your neck again, ice-cold arms wrapping around your body. The memory of that strange creature is still vivid in your mind. You didn't tell Julie, of course. She'd probably think you're crazy.

Your eyes wander towards the open sea, seeing the birds glide over the water, how free they looked. The thought of being free sounded appealing, oh how you wanted to be one of those birds, flying across the water, without a care in the world.

But even you knew that in reality, those birds still needed to fight to survive, even they sometimes had to turn against each other.

You sighed, looking towards the road as you see small fish and bakery shops already opened and full of locals. A few minutes passed as the car turned into a car park. "We're here." Julie parked the car.

"You're not coming in with me?" You looked at her pouting a little as she chuckles "Do you want me to?" Your eyebrows furrowed, quickly grab your bag and open the door.

"No" You quickly answer and slam the door, feeling as though she was mocking you a little because you didn't want to do it alone.

"You don't need her Y/N" You tell yourself. "She's just like the rest of them. Just take advantage of the situation until your good on your own. Then let her go. She's just using you"

You make your way towards the entrance, going past the two waterfalls with statues of dolphins spitting out water. The glass doors opened as you enter, and you look at your watch, it was 8:57.

You walk in following the tunnel entrance towards the reception although you couldn't help but wonder where everyone was. Wasn't it opening today? Were you mistaken? You continue towards the reception, seeing a young handsome looking man in a suit typing away on his computer. You clear your throat and the man looks over at you.

"Oh, my apologies miss. We are not open today due to a technical issue, but we will be opening tomorrow at 7 am. Do you wish to make a booking early?" The handsome man looks over at you, his broad shoulders prominent. You glanced over at his name tag labelled "Kim Seokjin".

"Uhh, no thank you. My name is Y/N, Y/N L/N. I'm here for my induction." Your words came out less confident than you would have liked as you looked down at the floor.

"Y/N!?" You flinched, hearing your name being called. You looked over as another man in a black suit walked towards you. He was tall and had blonde hair, slicked back and styled. He held out a hand to you, "Hello, my name is Kim Namjoon. Julie told me so much about you." He smiled at you, displaying his two dimples on each side of his face. Just like the receptionist, his visuals were prominent.

You shook his hand, blinking a few times before realising, "You're... my boss??" you stammered out, his firm strong hands wrapped around your tiny ones. You have to admit, he was well built and his smile was to die for. He chuckled, letting your hand go before directing you past the reception and into the food court of the aquarium. You look back towards the reception, wanting to say goodbye to the receptionist but it was too late as Namjoon led you down the hall.  

As the two of you entered the food court, the room was wide, and it looked like a massive underground restaurant with fish tanks surrounding it. You have never seen anything like it.

"So, Y/N, as you might have guessed this place is quite empty at the moment, just a small a technical issue but it hopefully will be fixed in a few days" Namjoon leads you across the room letting you take a look at everything. You suppose that this is going to be your tour.

"Ah yes, so I've heard" Namjoon smiles while continue walking as you went past an enormous tank that looked like it connected with the other tanks. You glanced at his attire, classic black suit and tie with a white shirt underneath.

Namjoon had stopped and glanced around the room. "This is the food court, although most of the time when you are working you won't be needed here." It just had occurred to you that you didn't even know what position you'd be in. All you knew was that it was a job away from your mother and paid quite a lot of money. Julie was right, you are impulsive.

"So, what am I going to be doing here?" You look over at him as he continues to walk, heading towards another room with a big smile on his face, showing his dimples.

"Well, Y/N-"

"Namjoon! There you are, we have a situation..." A man with a white coat entered the room. He had a concerned look about him but as soon as he saw you it changed into a big smile and you couldn't help but want to smile back at him.

"Hello! My name is Jung Hoseok. You must be the new girl that will be working for us?" You looked at him and couldn't help but feel special as he gave you all his attention. Namjoon looked over at you while you smiled back at Hoseok, you dont know why but you just felt so comfortable around him.

"Ah yes... I guess everyone knows about me, huh" you shyly answered, suddenly finding the urge to fiddle with your earring. It was a nervous habit. "My name is Y/N L/N. It's nice to meet you" Hoseok smiled again before Namjoon cleared his throat, regaining our attention.

"Hoseok... Did you want to speak in private?" Hoseok's smile immediately dropped and he looked at Namjoon with a more serious expression.

"Yes, of course,  Regarding our technical problem, there is some important information you need to know." Namjoon nods his head and looks over at you. "Excuse me, Miss L/N".

You watched them walk out of the food court. You wondered what the technical problem was. Even the receptionist was vague about it. You sighed and took a seat at the cafe. You sat there staring at a fish in a tank. The food court was big and round. The walls surrounding it was just glass tanks, with one in the middle of the circular room, acting as a pillar. You sat in your seat quietly, your mind started to wander back to those callous hands that feel like they never left your body. You felt an ice chill, it petrified you. It felt like you were marked by death.  

You heard Namjoon and Hoseok walk in as you quickly stood up and pushed your chair in neatly. "Everything all sorted?" You press your lips together, trying to get that thing off your mind.

Namjoon looks at you curiously before frowning, 'I'm truly sorry, I don't think I can proceed with this tour. Something very important has come up". You nod, understandingly.

"No, No, I understand. Don't worry, I'm pretty sure I can navigate my way around the place." You take a glance around.

This place is way too big...

Namjoon looked over at you. "That won't be necessary, I have organised one of the staff members to come and give you a tour, you will be a trainer just like him. He will be mentoring you. His name is-"  

"Hello Y/N". His voice was sweet. Angelic, but not innocent. A sultry like voice that sounded like a whisper of temptation. You looked over your shoulder to see an elegant looking man with light brown locks walking over to you. His style was neat as he had black-skinny jeans and a white t-shirt, following by a Chanel bag. "My name is Park Jimin," the man said.

Damn the wage must be crazy then huh...

Namjoon sighed and looked at the floor, that was the second time he had gotten interrupted. Namjoon looked over at Jimin and then at you, before stating "This is your mentor".

Jimin looks over at you cocking his head as he smiled at you. "Come on, let me show you the place! Oh yeah, and you can meet Tae! He'd love to meet you." He grabbed your hand, locking your fingers with his as he dragged you out of the food court. "Goodbye Hoseok and Namjoon! Nice meeting you!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You sat there next to the water on the platform that stretches over the dolphin's tank. Jimin had taught you how to feed them and the different signals you can do with your hands. When you first saw Jimin, he seemed to like this neat good-looking guy that wouldn't work at a place like this. But here, now looking at him as he is feeding the dolphins with the biggest smile on his face, his hair fluffy and eyes glued to the water, he looked like he belonged.

"Jimin-ah!" you heard someone shout. Jimin stood up quickly and ran off the platform onto the concrete towards a tall looking man, well at least taller than Jimin. "Taehyung-ah! You are 3 hours late! You know you can't always get me to cover for you. You are lucky Y/N was there when I ran into Namjoon today, he for sure would have asked me about you. You know I can't lie to him!" Jimin and Taehyung walked back on the platform and you could finally see Taehyung features.

"Hi, my name is Kim Taehyung. Nice to meet you" he bowed and smiled. His voice was low, that was the first thing you noticed about him. The second thing was his fluffy black hair and you suspected that he recently had a perm. He was soft in every way except he had this dominating presence that could be seen through his eyes. He smiled at you, his box smile making you smile.

"Hello! My name is Y/N. Quite late, are you?" You smiled, and he chuckled. "I swear this doesn't always happen." Jimin scoffed and you tried to hold in your laughter.

"Oh yeah, did you show her around yet?" Taehyung came and sat down on the platform. We joined him, watching the dolphins. Jimin looked over at you "Well we did look around a little, but we haven't been to all the off-limit areas yet".

This intrigued you, "Ooh, now I’m excited. " You spoke with enthusiasm and Taehyung and Jimin smirked at one another. Jimin looked your way "Okay so we can’t get caught there though, it's off-limits to everyone besides Namjoon and Hoseok."

You nodded, curious to see what those "off-limit areas" are. Taehyung sighed, "I don't get why it's off-limits. Those poor fishes all alone... No one to talk too..." Taehyung pretends to cry and puts his hands over his face before taking them off and smirking. You were confused about his comment.  

You look over at Taehyung. He was a character that's for sure. He seemed more carefree than Jimin. Perhaps he didn't like his job as much as Jimin liked it? You weren't one to judge though. You did, in fact, move away from home with barely any knowledge where you're going or if Julie was trustful. You were pretty carefree yourself. But thats because you feel like you have nothing to lose. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Come on! Come on! Hurry up Tae." Jimin whispered loudly.

Taehyung was dawdling behind as you and Jimin were making your way downstairs in the back area of the aquarium. Towards one of the rooms  that were "off-limits". Jimin and Taehyung said they have been working here for years and they have a special key for one of the rooms down here. Apparently it came from the bartender that worked in the food court. Jimin said that the bartender had found it while cleaning and decided to keep it.

"Ah yes, the bartender... watch out for that one" Taehyung chuckled as you guys went through the door using the key. "What do you mean?" you answered, watching Jimin use the key on the door.

"Don't scare her Taehyung! It's her first day, I'm sure he will like her." Jimin sighed but smirked slightly as he opened the doors. As you walked inside you noticed the walls looked like they were made out of stone with little windows that revealed the ocean. There was a long hallway, the ground was made out of sand and as you went down the pathway you could see a moonpool of some sort that had fish in it.

"My little fishes! How have you been?" Taehyung yells out and Jimin shushes him.

"I can't believe this is down here," You say, getting closer the glowing moonpool. Taehyung walks past you, "well no one comes down here anymore. As we said, we have the key. No one has been in, so we figured we are the only ones who have a key to the place."

“But, like how is it here? Under the aquarium?” You wondered, sitting down next to the moonpool. 

“Its connected to the mountains. The aquarium is on the shore but the back of it is connected to the mountains that surround Taelin Shore and this just so happens to be here.” Jimin states, looking around it awe. 

Jimin smiled and looked over at Taehyung, "Its our little hideout but now I feel like it should be Y/N's..." Jimin smiled as he spoke, visably excited and leaned onto Taehyung. You suppose they have been friends since their childhood. You could have sensed it on them.

You gave Jimin a confused expression he looked over at you and handed you the key, "here". You looked at him and stood back. "Wait what? Why are you giving me that? isn't it yours?". Jimin shrugs and puts it in your other hand. "I was once new here as well. I know how it feels, sometimes you just want some peace and quiet." Taehyung then chips in, "It may not seem like it now but when it gets busy, it can be stressful. Besides, we haven't been in here for a while, we don't have any use for it.

You smiled, you did need this. With Julie at home and these two at work, you knew you're going to have your hands full. Just the other day, you wanted time alone... By the end of it, you fell off a cliff and nearly drowned. Perhaps this could be a place for you to be alone. Everyone needed a hideout, right?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was the end of the day and Jimin and Taehyung were finished giving you their tour. You were surprised that you felt so comfortable around them. Julie was right, the people here are different.

You stood outside of the Aquarium hugging and saying goodbye to both Jimin and Taehyung as they walked towards their cars to go home. You weren't planning to stay for this long, truth is your orientation ended hours ago. You just wanted to spend more time with them.

You walked over to the pillar at the steps, waiting for Julie to come to pick you up. You sat down on the steps quietly before hearing someone raise their voice as they were heading up the steps. You hid behind the pillar, sittiing there silently. Thankfully, they didn't see you.

You heard Hoseok's voice "You don't understand! We got him! We got him, you hear me? This is a breakthrough of the century! Do you know what we could do now that we have him? The possibilities are endless. This creature is-"

You heard someone interrupt. It sounded like Namjoon, "This creature is the only thing we have going for us right now so would you be so kind to stay quiet! I know you're excited, but we can't let anyone know about this, he's dangerous."

They both went inside. Leaving you to your thoughts.

Honk Honk

"Come on Y/N, It's late!" Julie yelled out from the car. You got up and grabbed your bag before running over to the car.

"I'm coming!"

Chalazar maybe?

“Ella, when’s your chick getting here?” Ronan asked as he took a puff from his joints and blew the smoke out the window of the CoC base.

“When are you gonna learn to wear a shirt?” Elazar rolled all four of his eyes at his teammate, who insisted on wearing basketball shorts and that was it.

“You’re just mad cause I have GREAT man tits and you’re a wimp who doesn’t lift.” Ronan said before taking another puff.

“Whatever. She’ll be here soon, so put a shirt on.”

“You afraid she’ll see my glorious tiddies and leave you?”

“Ronan, what the hell?” Carrie sighed as she walked in at just the perfect time.

“Oh yeah, how long have you and Chase been an item now?” Kitty leaned over the back of the couch next to Elazar.

“Um…a couple months.” Elazar shrugged.

“Oooh, what was your first kiss like? I never heard about that.” Nancy excitedly bounced over from the kitchen to join the conversation. Great, now his whole team was gathered around to listen to his pathetic life.

“Um…we haven’t Uh…I haven’t-“

“YOU HAVENT KISSED YET?!” Kitty and Eugene both dropped their jaws at the same time, as Ronan choked on smoke and started laughing.

“Oh come on, man.” Lucy giggled, trying to hide it to not make Elazar feel too bad.

“Shut up! Unlike you whores, I haven’t kissed anyone yet!”

“That’s just sad.” Kitty teased. “I had my first kiss in like 5th grade.”

“Well yeah, you’re a slut.”

“And you’re a prude.”

“Wait, so have you NEVER kissed anyone? EVER??” Eugene asked, still not wrapping his head around the idea.

“Technically some Star Sapphire kissed me but I don’t count her cause I didn’t kiss back.”

“Do you need practice?~” Kitty purred, and when she saw the horrified look on his face she laughed loudly. “I’m kidding! God, I’m not THAT slutty.”

“So are you ever gonna kiss her?” Jonah piped up.

“You don’t want her to deem you unworthy.” Nina added.

“Please, if she’s still here by now she’s sticking around.” Ronan scoffed. “Not just anybody is gonna fall for the Kool Aid Mascot.”

The doorbell rang and everyone’s heads whipped around to look at it, and Elazar felt dread wash over him.

“IF ANY OF YOU FUCKERS EVEN MUTTERS A SINGLE WORD ABOUT THIS CONVERSATION TO HER I WILL CATAPULT YOU INTO SPACE TO BE EATEN BY ALIENS.” Elazar shouted before opening the door. “Hey babe, what’s up-“

congratulations, charlie is now temporarily immortal!

dwarves can hit things with their beard

kali wants to know if she's legally allowed to bail

she'd feel really bad if she had to loot our corpses for payment if we died.

we have entered the Tree Zone

one of the corpses is now a flamingo (has one leg)

silje has decided to stab the ground. take that, dirt

kali was large size for a second there but then she remembered to not be a giant

"you accidentally deleted my cat?!"

silje has learned naruto cloning jutsu

be gone, thot

oh boy, making an int check to look at a statue! 11! silje is dumb apparently.

silje has decided to not get bitten today

silje may or may not have stats.

oh, right, trolls are weak to fire! and also we forgot to upgrade sieron's firebolt. so it actually hurts now!

silje is full of knives and blades and does 31 damage in one turn!

charlie shouts words of encouragement from the ethereal plane. a nearby ghost vibes with this.

🎉 eldritch blast 🎉

kali remembered she hates the sun

silje is enthuasiatic about charlie saying "get him cat boy!"

charlie contemplating using fireball to nuke the troll and also the entire stonehenge

charlie has decided to use magic missile instead, probably for the best

the troll bit at charlie SO POORLY it broke some of its teeth on the ground

charlie is too small to hit

accidentally rolled advantage on a firebolt, so got to learn it WOULD have done 29 damage with a crit but instead it missed because it was not actually with advantage

silje has just sliced open its entire back and made a spray of frozen blood! radical. big boy is down!

we have burned the body because we are not stupid. well, we ARE stupid, but not stupid in the way of leaving a body full of necrotic magic around

[dr coomer voice] i think it's good that he died!

we're also doing a funeral pyre for the other corpses that were around. just to be sure.

our loot is: the satisfaction of a job well done

thorne is cosplaying as charlie

charlie has located the direction troll came from! she found the 'the way to sweet loot' sign

thorne is apparently better at survival checks than our hired guide? wack

we found a viking house! it has: mead, a shield, gravestones,

found a gold coin in the mead! maybe it was thirsty

oh theres a LOT Of coins in there actually. 60 gold and 120 silver!

have successfully pointed out a hole in the DM's logic :)

there was a raven! it cawed and left. ok bye buddy

and that's where we leave it! heading back to camp vengeance next time.

Gilmore girls - Early Christmas shopping (Part 1)

"Pizza?" Said Rory.

"Check!" Said Lorelai.

"Garlic knots?" Said Rory.

"Check!" "Said Lorelai.

"Soda?" Said Rory.

"Check!" "Said Lorelai. "Thanks dude". She said to Luke.

"Thank you Luke". Said Rory.

"You're welcome". Said Luke. "Come on put the game on. We're gonna miss it". He said.

"Basketball?" Said Rory.

"Yeah" Said Luke.

"Ugh I hate sports!" Said Lorelai.

"Not the way this team plays". Rory said to her mom.

"Can we watch something else?" Lorelai asked.

"We can watch the movie the strangers after the game". Rory said to her mom.

"Ooh yay!" Said Lorelai.

"The scary movie the strangers?" Luke said. "Doesn't scary movies give you both nightmares?" He asked Lorelai and Rory.

"Yeah" said Rory.

"Yeah, but we like to be scared haha" Said Lorelai.

Luke sighed. "Alright. Game time".

Rory heard her cell phone ring. "Hello?" She answered.

"Hey babe". Said Paris. "Do you like poetry books?" She asked her girlfriend.

"Uh yeah kinda. Why?" Rory asked.

"Just asking. I wanna get my baby something nice for Christmas". Said Paris.

Rory smiled. "Aww!"

"What?" Said Paris.

"You called me your baby" Said Rory. She giggled.

"No I didn't!" Said Paris.

"Yes you did!" Said rory.

"No I didn't!" Said Paris.

"Yes you did!" Said Rory.

"No I didn't!" Said Paris.

"Paris!" Said Rory.

"Fine. I call you my baby. That's because you're my baby". Said Paris.

Rory giggled. "Cutie!" She said to her girlfriend.

Paris smiled. "How about Scary books? Do you like scary books?" She asked her girlfriend.

"Yeah kinda". Said Rory.

"Great" Said Paris.

"Shoot the ball!!" Lorelai yelled at the TV.

"What was that?" Paris asked.

"My mom yelling at the tv". Said Rory.

"Alright that's all I needed to know. Thanks babe. Night". Said Paris.

"Night". Said Rory.

"Love you". Said Paris.

"Love you too". Said Rory.

They both hung up.

Rory picked up a slice of pepperoni and sausage pizza and started to eat the pizza.

They heard a knock on the door. It was a cold night in December.

"Oh,I think that's Lexi!" Said Lorelai.

She got up and opened up the door. "Baby!" Lorelai yelled.

"Hey hey!" Said Lexi.

Lexi jumped in Lorelai's arms as Lorelai held her girlfriend in her arms.

"Girlfriend?" Luke asked.

"Yeah" Said Rory.

"Ooh is the game on?" Lexi asked. Her and Lorelai were holding hands.

"Yeah", said Luke. "The bucks are winning".

Lorelai was holding her girlfriend in her arms. Lexi smiled. "Ooh what a block!" Both her and Luke yelled at the tv.

"Hey Lexi!" Said Rory.

"Hey Rory!" Said Lexi. Rory got up from the couch and gave her friend a hug as Lexi hugged her back.

"Do you want some pizza?" Rory asked Lexi.

"Yeah! I'm hungry I havent eaten dinner yet". Said Lexi.

After the basketball game was over Luke, Lorelai, her girlfriend Lexi, and Rory started to watch the movie the strangers.

"Do scary movies give you nightmares?" Lorelai asked Lexi.

Lexi frowned. "They do".

Lorelai hugged Lexi tight as Lexi hugged her too. "We can watch another movie".

"Can we watch the movie the woman by the window?" Lexi asked.

"Alright, I'm gonna drive home. Gotta go Christmas shopping tomorrow. Ugh". Sais Luke.

"You sure you dont wanna watch the movie with us?" Lorelai asked.

"No that's okay". Said Luke. "Night Ladies. Night Lexi". He said. He got up and put his winter jacket on.

"Night Luke. Thanks again for the pizza". Said Rory.

"Night Luke". Said Lorelai.

"Drive safe". Said Lexi.

After he left Lorelai locked the front door.

Lexi sat on her girlfriend's lap as Lorelai cuddled her. Rory started to eat the popcorn too.

After the movie was over Rory went to her room to sleep and Lorelai and Lexi slept in Lorelai's room. Lexi had her head on Lorelai's chest and Lorelai wrapped her arms around her girlfriend.

"Do you know what you want for Christmas yet?" Lorelai asked Lexi.

"An iPad. The iPad air. How about you?" Lexi asked.

"An air fryer. I think it makes the mozzarella sticks even more yummy". Said Lorelai.

As Lorelai slept she saw a note from Lexi. 'Hey babe! Going Christmas shopping! I'll meet you at Luke's diner for lunch. Love you. Xoxox'

Lorelai smiled. She brushed her teeth, took a shower, changed her clothes, and put on deodorant. She put on her winter coat and some gloves and her boots and went to buy Lexi the ipad air.

She walked into the store and saw the cashier. "I'd like to buy the iPad air please". She said. "Great". Said the cashier. "Niko will be with you shortly".

"Thanks". She said.

After 5 minutes she saw a man in a blue shirt with the name tag 'Niko'. "Hi. May I help you?" He said.

"I want to buy this ipad air. The one that's $319".

"Great. Here you go. Who's it for?". He asked.

"My girlfriend". Said Lorelai.

"Your girlfriend?" Niko gave her a weird look. "That's strange. Woman should only date men".

Lorelai grabbed the ipad. "Well guess what captain shit face? Lexi is a great girl. Shes my girlfriend. Do not speak about her like that and do not talk to me like that. Okay? Thanks". She said. She put the iPad air on the counter.

"$322". Said the cashier.

Lorelai paid with her debut card and grabbed the ipad air and left the store.

Lexi bought Lorelai an air fryer and a gift card at applebees.

Rory was at the bookstore looking at the books. She heard someone say "Hello beautiful".

'What in the world?' Rory thought to herself. She turned around saw her girlfriend. "Paris! Hiii!". She smiled.

"Hey baby". Said Paris. She gave Rory a kiss on the lips. "I bought you your Christmas present".

"Ooh! Give me! Give me!" Said Rory.

"I can't. You have to wait til Christmas". Said Paris.

"Aw man!" Said Rory.

"Come on babe. Christmas is 2 days away". Said Paris.

"That's true". Said Rory. "Where you headed to now?" Paris asked.

"To get coffee". Said Paris.

"I'll walk with you". Said Paris. "I want a muffin". Rory and Paris held hands as they walked to Luke's diner.

- At Luke's diner -

Lorelai opened the door to Luke's diner and said really loudly "Ohhh Luuuuuuke! Guess who needs coffeeeee?".

"Oh Great". Luke mumbled.

"Hey mom". Said Rory.

Lorelai turned around.

"Hey Rory! Hey Paris!" Said Lorelai.

"Hey Ms. Gilmore". Said Paris.

They saw Lexi on her laptop working.

Lorelai sat next to her. "Hey you".

"Oh, hey!" Lexi said to Lorelai. "What you up to beautiful?"

"Oh nothing. Sitting next to the most prettiest lady in the world. And...and I got you a Christmas present!" Said Lorelai.

Lexi smiled. "Aw yay! I'm just about done working on this website. It's a website for turf. Its basically people that do the turf for the playgrounds and for the basketball turfs too". Said Lexi.

"Fancyyy" Said Lorelai.

Lexi laughed.

2 more days til Christmas. Just two more days.

[deeeelightfuldee]

Are you better at cooking dinners or making cakes/biscuits/sweets? baking definitely. I want to get more comfortable cooking.

I still can’t turn it off.

Who is one person you have forgiven, but still have not “forgotten” what they have done? i think its easy to say “forgive and forget” but the reality is that once we have endured trauma we don’t easily forget.

The three teens were now successfully off on their adventure, and conversing amongst one another. "Alexis. Was everything okay, back at the pokemon center?" Hera asked as the three walked.

"Hm? Oh uh, yeah. My brain got overwhelmed with all of the lights, sounds, and my eyes had been hurting." Alexis admitted, adjusting her sunglasses.

"Ah. Gotcha. I experience it occasionally, although rarely." Hera nodded in understanding. "So. I'm thinking that, when we get to Nightvale city, My gran will want to have dinner with me one last time. And because shes a total sweetheart, You two can stay for dinner too." Hera spoke, slipping her hands into her jacket pockets. "So, I know Miranda's kind of a tough gym leader. Her gym is certainly eccentric, if I remember some of her battles that are televised. Three floors, each one works with a different weather effect. Remind me what they are, Lucius?"

"Sandstorm for the first floor, Hail for the second, and Sunny day for the third. The top floor, where shes located, is actually the rooftop of the weather facility in Jupiter city. It almost always rains in that city, as well. So when we head that direction, we'll wanna have our umbrella's to be easy to access." Lucius explained.

Alexis nodded, looking up from her pokedex. "I'm reading over Gible's pokedex entry, which also seems to list the ability for the pokemon, and what it does. Sand veil ups evasion in a sandstorm." She spoke. "Meaning that gible will likely be highly useful for the first floor, in my case." She spoke.

"Correct. The ability listing feature was of Professor Morgan's own design, if you're curious. Also. We should use this route, and the cave, to train our partners." Lucius spoke.

"Cave?" Hera asked.

"No. We're not going near the cave on the other path." Alexis spoke, her tone seeming to shift.

"There's a hidden cave nearby, that has pokemon that are rare elsewhere on this island." Lucius elaborated.

"Oh, okay. Sorry for my tone shift." Alexis spoke.

"All good. Yeah. That other cave, on the other path. It creeps everyone out, so mom made it illegal to go near there, at least for our towns residents." He explained, taking a pokeball out and releasing beldum. "Beldum will be harder to train, as it only learns one move until it evolves, into metang. Meaning I should get the jump on training it first, while still training Chomp, my main partner." Lucius spoke. He was going to say something, but got cut off by a girl getting his attention.

"Hey! Wanna battle? I just got a new pokemon, and wanna test it out." The girl spoke.

"You can take her on Lucius." Hera spoke, gesturing for him to go on. "Alexis and I can watch, or go train on wild pokemon."

"Y-yeah. Let's go train on wild Pokemon. Catch up with us after, lucius." Alexis spoke.

3 hard hours of training later, and one sudden thunderstorm that lasted 20 minutes

Alexis, Lucius, and Hera met back up in a Clearing in the Route. Their pokemon, had all gotten stronger.

"Anyone else hungry, or just me?" Alexis asked, as her stomach growled rather loudly. "Just realized I hadn't eaten yet."

"Well. We're close to my Gran's house, and closer to Nightvale City. It's about Lunch time at this point. We can go get lunch at a cafe, then take a few hours to relax before going to my Grandma's for the night." Hera offered.

"I got plenty of Money from the trainers I beat, meaning I can pay for lunch." Lucius nodded.

"Yeah. Let's get healed up at the pokemon center, then go get lunch. It's about another six hours or so till dinnertime, so we have plenty of time to kill at like an arcade or something. The one in Nightvale is moderately large. We can do some arcade games, if we havent blown all of our money by lunch." Hera nodded.

"What's an arcade?" Alexis questioned, not realizing she said it out loud.

"Basically, a place where you can pay money to earn tokens and play games. My dad used to own the one in nightvale city, before he sold it to the Mayor of Nightvale after meeting my mom when she joined him for a game of DDR, or rather. Dance, Dance, Revolution." Hera explained without missing a beat, as they headed toward the entrance of Nightvale city.

Once the three arrived in Nightvale city, Alexis's mouth dropped. This was one of the largest places she'd ever seen. (Not that she remembers anywhere larger.) "Woah. It's... massive." Alexis spoke, blinking slightly.

"There are bigger cities. Heck. The Island where we get our fifth gym badge, the entire place is all the city." Hera spoke.

"Ew. Sounds gross." Alexis reflexively spoke.

"Yeah. I personally enjoy places that have variety to them. I've heard Twilight Island is like a maze." Lucius spoke, as they walked into the pokemon center.

"Hi! Welcome to the pokemon center. Let me know if I can do anything for you, please." The Nurse spoke as she walked out from one of the back Rooms.

"Hi! I was wondering if our pokemon could get a quick heal." Lucius spoke.

"Can do! Just put the pokeballs on the tray here, and Blissey can take care of them for you." The nurse spoke as she put the tray on the counter in front of her.

Alexis put her pokeballs in top slots, although she was somewhat hesitant to.

Lucius put his in the middle, seeming a bit relaxed.

Hera put hers in the bottom slots.

"Blissey will bring you your pokeballs personally, after healing your pokemon. She can heal them through their pokeballs, so dont worry about her getting them mixed up. Feel free to have a seat." The nurse spoke, before turning to follow blissey to the back to work on something.

The three teens sat down, and began to converse among each other. "So. Since we're going to be traveling with each other for the foreseeable future. I guess we should get to know one another." Hera spoke, taking her hat off. "Lucius, pass me a drink?" She asked. "Gotta take my meds."

"Ah, yeah, of course." Lucius spoke as he opened his bag, and passed her a water bottle.

"Well... guess the meowth's gotta come out of the bag. I don't remember much of anything. I only know my name." Alexis spoke, rather quietly. She wasn't sure if the two would still be friends with her.

"That's quite okay." Hera spoke, as she took a couple of bottles out of her jacket, and opened the bottles. "We're not gonna look at you any differently, Alexis. Right, Lucius?" She asked, before taking her medication. Her tone had an essence of "Answer correctly, or I'm gonna smack you." to it.

"Yeah, of course." Lucius nodded.

Alexis let out a sigh of relief. "Thanks. I was feeling freaked out, and was trying to figure out how I should explain it." She spoke. "I dont even know where I'm from."

"Gotcha." Hera nodded. "Well, maybe we can make getting your memories back a side endeavor in our journey." She offered, as Blissey came up to their table, with their tray of pokeballs in hand.

"Thank's blissey." Lucius spoke, as the three sorted their pokeballs back among themselves.

"So yeah. We'll try our best to get your memories back." Hera nodded, her sunshine personality sort of showing in the instance.

Lucius nodded in agreement. "Yeah." He nodded. "So. Now that our teams are all healed up, where are we going first?" He asked as he stood up, hooking his pokeballs back onto his belt loop.

"Hm. Food and drink sound good?" Hera asked as she stood up, gesturing for Alexis to follow.

Alexis nodded. "Yeah, sounds fine to me." She spoke as she stood, and followed the others out.

Once the three were outside, Hera opened her map. "Now. If I recall correctly, theres a really good little cafe that doubles as a burger place, just up the street from here." Hera spoke. "I don't know about burgers myself, but I could definitely go for a Chocolate moomoo milkshake and fries." She spoke, as she put her map away, and began to walk right from the pokemon center entry.

Lucius and Alexis exchanged glances, and followed after Hera, who was already a good two feet away.

After a good Twenty minutes of walking, the trio arrived at a rather large building. "Used to come here all the time after school. Don't remember why I stopped." Hera spoke, grabbing the door and opening it.

Alexis and lucius followed her in, exchanging a look as they got greeted. "Hey there, welcome to Cathy's. Today we've got a deal on burger's and shakes. Buy ten dollars worth and get a third set free." The cashier spoke.

"You two get whatever you want, I'll just get a large thing of fries and a chocolate shake." Hera spoke, as she pulled out her wallet to start counting how much money she'd need to set aside for their meal.

After time passed, and the three sat down after ordering their food, a pair of women walked into the Café, looking no older then Hera. The most eye-catching feature the women had among the two of them was the orange haired girl having a mechanical arm. It wasn't audible what the two had ordered, but it didn't seem overly complicated, as it was done before the trio's meal.

The black haired girl who had it tied back and to the side walked up. "Hey, there's not a whole lot of places left to sit. Do you three care if we join you?" She asked. She adjusted her glasses, as she waited for an answer from one of them.

"Of course! We were just stopping in to get lunch ourselves. We just started our own adventure and all." Hera spoke, seeming a little sheepish.

"Ah, yeah. I remember those times." The orange haired girl spoke. "I think you and I started at the same time, right, rey?" She asked her companion.

"Yes, we did. Now, apologies, but we've seemed to have forgotten our manners. I'm Reyna, and this one here is Cassidy." Reyna spoke, nodding slightly.

Hera nodded. "The guy getting our food is Lucius, I'm hera, and I'll let her introduce herself."

"I'm Alexis." Alexis spoke, nodding gently to the two taller girls.

The two girls who had joined them nodded. "Nice to meet you too. You seem a little young to just be starting your adventure." Reyna noted.

"As much as I wish I were younger, I'm glad to be Seventeen." Hera laughed a little. "Means I dont have to see my parents again." She spoke lightly.

Lucius set their tray down on the table. "Hera, who are these two?" Lucius asked as he sorted their stuff among themselves.

"Cassidy and Reyna. They asked to sit with us as there isn't anywhere else that they can really sit." Hera explained.

"Ah. Nice to meet you." Lucius spoke, as he sat down.

Cassidy nodded. "Mind if I ask who you guys chose as starters? I've heard interesting things about this Region's starter selection." She spoke.

"Well. This year was a bit different, and the professor gave us each two starter pokemon." Hera explained.

"Interesting." Reyna noted, writing it down in her notebook after taking a sip from her drink.

"I chose this Region's variant of Piplup, and Larvitar. I'll let these two answer the question themselves." Hera spoke before digging into her food.

"Region's totodile variant, and gible." Alexis quietly spoke after swallowing the bite she had been chewing on. It was clear that she had something on her mind, but nobody could be entirely sure what it was she was thinking about.

"Cyndaquil Variant and Beldum." Lucius nodded.

"Interesting. And what are the types of your regional variants?" Reyna asked, glancing up from her writing.

"Totodile is dark and fairy, according to my pokedex." Alexis nodded.

"Cyndaquil is an Ice and Dragon type here." Lucius spoke.

"And Piplup is just a ghost type." Hera spoke, after swallowing the food she had in her mouth.

"Fascinating. We came to the region on business, mostly because someone called us here for said business." Reyna spoke.

"She still won't tell me, for whatever reason." Cassidy spoke, shrugging lightly as she stretched her legs out.

"Because if I do, you won't shut up about it. You'll find out in about a month's time. We mostly came a month early to get a lay of the region." Reyna spoke.

"Oh. Okay." Cassidy spoke. "Think we may try the gym challenge. Might be worth it after all, now that we're here. Y'know babe?"

"Yeah. Gives us an idea on how tough some of the trainers in this region are." Reyna nodded, as she looked up from her notepad.

"Ah. About that. Nobody's been able to complete the gym challenge in two years at this point." Lucius explained.

"That's a surprise." Cassidy spoke. "Why?"

"The eighth gym leader, Minerva, disappeared two years ago. Nobody knows where she went." Lucius explained, after taking a sip of his drink.

"Fascinating." Cassidy spoke.

Reyna simply nodded, marking something down in her notepad. "Seems interesting. I guess that's why Victory road looked untraversed?" She questioned.

"Yeah. And the league officials have been unable to hire a new leader to replace her, as her gym is sealed shut." Lucius nodded again.

"Oh, interesting." Reyna nodded. "I need to step outside for a moment, make a couple of Phone calls." Reyna spoke, standing up and stepping away from the table.

"Everything okay, babe?" Cassidy asked.

"Yeah. Just gotta make a couple calls correlating to our work here." Reyna nodded, reassuring her girlfriend before she headed outside.

"So. What's with the arm?" Alexis asked, finally deciding to speak up a little. She gestured vaguely to Cassidy's metal arm, before going back to poke at her food.

"Lost my arm in a fight back home. Reyna built this one for me, when she found me bleeding." Cassidy chuckled lightly, adjusting her hoodie. "What sparked the question?"

"It just looks out of place, with the rest of your attire." Hera elaborated, since Alexis had her mouth full.

"Ah, yeah. Had to unscrew it to get through the metal detector to board the boat to get here. That was not a fun experience." Cassidy admitted.

"Yeah, I imagine so." Lucius nodded. "Anyone wanna battle? Just all friendly like?" The teen asked, cleaning up the wrappers from all of their food. "We've still got time to kill."

"Yeah, sure. I'm down." Cassidy spoke, standing up, and collecting her and Reyna's drinks. "I'll meet y'all outside." She spoke as she slipped out.

"So. Those two are eccentric, to say the least." Hera noted as she laughed a little. "You can go battle Cassidy. Think I'm gonna hit the mall with Alexis, if she wants to come along." Hera spoke, as she stood up, finishing her shake.

Alexis nodded, re-wrapping the rest of her burger she still had and stuffing it in her pocket. "I figure we'll meet back up in an hour or two?" Alexis asked, remaining soft-spoken.

Hera nodded. "Here's my number Lucius, in case you need to contact us before we meet at gran's." She spoke, writing her phone number down on the wrapped and passing it to him.

The trio separated on their own paths, to do their own thing for a little while.

Following Alexis and Hera for the next little while. Lucius will pop back in later.

"So, uh. You've been pretty quiet, Alexis." Hera spoke, slipping her hands into her pockets. "Something on your mind?" She asked.

"No, everything's fine. I'm just... I don't know. It feels weird, not being able to remember things. The food was fine, If that's what you're wondering." Alexis spoke, kicking a couple rocks.

"Alright. If you need to talk to someone, you can. Y'know that, right?" Hera spoke, nodding slightly to Alexis. "Also. Is there anything you want, while we're shopping?"

"A cellphone would be nice. I didn't have one, when I woke up in that room." Alexis spoke quietly.

"Alright. Yeah, we can look at those. You can't get most places without one." Hera smiled a bit.

Alexis nodded. "I figured. I've been observing everyone, and it seems like theyve become an intricate part of everyone's lives." She spoke, looking up at her friend.

"Yeah, it's interesting." She spoke, as they walked into the Mall. "Here we are. The Nightvale Mall. I used to come here a lot. Stopped when my friends moved away." Hera shrugged. "I'm thinking we should get you a couple more outfits, because as nice as your current outfit is, it's kind of out of place seeming." Hera explained.

"Yeah. That'll be fine. I'm keeping this jacket though, to go with any outfits we get." Alexis spoke.

"Yeah. The Jacket's fine." Hera spoke, as she and Alexis walked. "Anywhere you wanna go first?" She asked.

Alexis nodded. "Uh... hm. We could go look at the books first. I think having some reading material would be nice." She spoke.

Hera nodded. "Then off to the bookshop it is." She spoke, as she helped Alexis Navigate to the bookstore on the second floor.

The two girls walked into the Bookstore, which was Relatively empty, outside of a cashier and a couple of elderly people sitting down somewhere near the back, in a couple or chairs. "Get whatever strikes your fancy. We've got a budget about Nineteen thousand, to spend here at the mall." Hera spoke.

Alexis nodded. She really didn't have any idea where to start. After all, she didn't even know if she had a favorite genre. After about fifteen minutes of wandering the store, Alexis had picked up a few mystery novels that caught her eye. "Hey Hera. Found a few books that looked interesting."

"Oh?" Hera asked, walking over to Alexis, to see what Alexis had found.

"Yeah. Just a few mystery novels that caught my attention." Alexis spoke. "Think we should probably get the phone next, then save the outfit shopping for last." Alexis nodded as she and Hera went up to the register to pay for the books she picked out.

"Sounds good to me." Hera spoke, keeping her hands in her pockets as the cashier scanned the books, taking out her wallet when it was time.

After Hera paid for the books, Alexis took the bag that the books were put in, and held it in her left hand as the two girls walked out, and headed for the next shop.

After a while of the two shopping, Hera's phone buzzed, with a text from Lucius, asking where the two were.

Hera shot him a text back, stating that they were leaving the mall right as he texted, and were on their way.

The two girls walked through Nightvale city, eventually arriving at a house, with lucius standing outside, and Cassidy having a smoke nearby. "Hey kiddos. Lucius wanted me to come with him after the battles, as he had questions. Now that you two are here, ima dip out. Maybe we'll run into each other some other time." Cassidy spoke, not giving the two time to answer, as she left.

"...that was weird." Hera spoke. "Oh well. She's probably right, that we'll run into her and her girlfriend again." She shrugged, as she walked up the steps to the front door, and unlocked it. "Gran! I'm home!" She called.

"Hey Hera, welcome home!" Hera's grandma called back from the kitchen. "Are your friends with you?" She asked.

"Yeah! Lucius, Alexis. You two, come on in." Hera gestured.

Alexis was the last to enter, and closed the door behind her. "Thank you for having us, I think." She spoke, nodding gently.

"Mhm! I figured I should feed you three before you go off on an adventure around the Islands." Gran spoke, as she was chopping onions.

"Thanks, really." Lucius spoke, awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck.

"I'm making sausage and mac and cheese, with sauteed onions." Her grandmother nodded. "Do any of you wanna help?" She asked.

"Yeah." Alexis spoke. "I may not be of much help, though." She spoke, putting her bags down, and heading to the kitchen.
