"They can keep all that freaky far away from me." Silas says, as if the words being spoken might echo through the vicinity like a warning. He doesn't trust that Cora's words won't end up being prophetic, making him somewhat apprehensive about the hayride.

"Could always skip this one and fuck on off to something else."

"I think clowns only have one look and it's freaky, so... Let's hope they keep their distance. I'm not really in the mood to watch you beat up a poor employee who's definitely not getting paid enough to be wearing three layers of face paint and an itchy wig." @silascody

"He's cute," Cherry's eyes widened as she spoke between clenched teeth. She wasn't being subtle, but what did it matter? The guy had been making 'come hither' eyes in Cora's direction for the past twenty minutes. "Why don't you go talk to him?"

"Ah, you're here—" Will looked up from his phone just in time to see Cora walk through the back door and find him in the garden. He'd been spending more time out here, despite the nasty weather. "Got the letters for you." They'd weighed heavy in his hands. "Fancy a cuppa?"

With a look of sincere confusion on his face, Atlas scanned the menu like he was deciphering hieroglyphics rather than drink options, his presence not there from curiosity but rather by request of a blonde he liked enough to play fetch-the-bubble-tea for while she studied.

The vague text hadn't specified what sort, and he didn't want to text back and ask and make it seem like he didn't know what it was.

( He doesn't. )

After another five seconds of deliberation, he turns to the closest person in earshot, which was a brunette he hoped would assist his plight.

"You ever had this stuff before?"

"Whoa—" Julian watched the commotion unfold almost in slow motion. He quickly jogged over and immediately lent down to help the scatter of books and papers that had escaped as she fell. "You okay?" he asked, even though falling like that likely didn't result in an injury except bruised pride. "That was a nasty fall."

With a hardback book in one hand and a coffee in the other, X gave the summary on the back another once over as he waited, the possible collaboration on the horizon not one he would have entertained a couple of years back but he's intrigued by the idea.

He takes a drink of his latte and opens the book, reminding himself of what the author and the person he's there to meet looked like so he didn't accidentally miss her arrival.

"I am so sorry to interrupt you.. while you're browsing but I just had to ask," Aylin approached the brunette, a shy smile on her lips. "But are you Cora Deveraux?" Her eyes light up at the thought. It wasn't often that she got to meet a real-life celebrity, but this was so much better in her opinion. A literary celebrity. "You're honestly.. one of my favorite authors and I'm not just saying that, I promise. I've read all of your books, every single one. I love them, you're just so.. fantastic and I just had to say something."

Once the words finished tumbling out her mouth, Aylin regretted them slightly. "I'm so sorry, that was so intense of me."

It wasn't Robin's usual choice for meeting a client—but Cora Deveraux was no ordinary client. It wasn't often that Robin got meetings with one of her favourite authors, so she was eager to impress and make a good first impression. "I ordered two glasses of wine," Robin says as Cora takes her seat, "I hope you don't mind. I figured we might need them once we start diving into your mother's secret life."

CORALINE “CORA” DEVEREAUX is a PANTOMIME and 29 years old. Originally from PARIS, FRANCE, they have been with the circus for 2 MONTHS. They look like ELLA PURNELL and possess the ability of INTANGIBILITY. They are known to be CURIOUS, DETERMINED, and FREE-SPIRITED, but can also be BRAZEN, REACTIVE, and REBELLIOUS.  

CHARACTER THEMES: distance, longing, potential, belonging, transience

SUMMARY OF ABILITY: She possesses the ability to pass through matter, known as "phasing", by passing her atoms through the spaces between the atoms of the matter she wants to move through. In this way, she and the outside matter can temporarily merge without interacting, each being unharmed during the process, making her, for all intents and purposes, intangible. Hence, she can easily walk through walls and barriers and when attacked, she can shift into a "phasing" state to allow any oncoming danger to harmlessly pass through her. She passes through matter at the same speed at which she was moving beforehand, phasing through it with no loss in momentum. She is also able to allow additional matter she is in contact with, living or otherwise, to become intangible and phase along with her.

BIO

Cora was born in Paris, France to a well-to-do family. She was intellectual and curious about the world around her and could be found running around the city with friends.

She was the youngest of several siblings and like them, was sent to boarding school in Sweden for high school.

Everything seemed fine until she turned 15 and she began to feel off. She’d drop things more easily and get headaches frequently. One night, she was having a nightmare, she felt like she was falling only to wake up screaming, phasing through her bed and several floors below to another dorm. No one understood what was going on, and those who might have kept their mouths shut.  

Referred to as “the incident”, it didn’t take long for rumors to spread about Cora and her abilities continued to be problematic. She lasted about another two weeks before she was withdrawn by her parents. They told her never to tell anyone what was going on. Things were still difficult after a year, and there were more incidents that occurred, so they moved Cora to a family home in Normandy.

It wasn’t as fast paced as Paris but it ended up being good for her. The water provided peace and space to think. She had a tutor and despite missing out on the life she could’ve had, Cora was still scared of herself until she gradually began to learn more about her abilities and practice in a less public space. She used that intelligence and her natural curiosity and began to research what she could about matter and molecules and everything in between.

She remained in Normandy for several years before finally gaining enough control of her abilities to feel comfortable going out into the world again.

Cora still felt like she couldn’t get close to anyone, always fearful of hiding who she was. Especially because she heard rumors. Everyone had. About odd things happening and then people disappearing. Something seemed off about it and so she kept to herself for the most part. Traveling around the world.

Eventually, she cut off her parents as well, when they reached out claiming they had someone who could help change things for her entirely. As tempting as it would have been when she was 15, Cora in her 20s couldn’t imagine life any other way. Eventually those people who they claimed could help finally came after Cora.

She was on the run for 2 years before eventually finding the Night Circus a year ago. She’d returned to Normandy and was promptly scouted by Genevieve Westwood who invited her to the show and later, convinced her to stay.

She’s been with them for about two months, and has nearly perfected her act as a mime. Her act has her using her abilities to their fullest potential, creating an act that’s full of thrills and laughter for all. She enjoys being able to use the abilities she spent so long hiding and is grateful to the Circus for giving her a home. She’s made fast friends with some members and is ever curious about their skills, learning about them all as they hit the road. 

OTHER

CONNECTIONS: Older siblings who have abilities that she never knew about. They probably kept them hidden from the family. Could've been searching for Cora and found the Circus, or could've found the Circus and then found Cora. Open!

ACCENT: Cora is from France, but her tutors were good and American TV and her years practicing alone in Normandy mean her accent isn't very noticeable. Also, traveling all over the world, she spent a few years traveling through America and perfecting her accent on the road.

68: Who’s the last person you had a deep conversation with?

“I think it’s a fair guess to say Cora. After I dragged her rollerskating, we both fell on our butts and all. Way too many times, I had bruises for days! But of course I owed my girlie a deep conversation. We bonded some more. Next guess would be Romi. We always talk about life together, our goals and random spontaneous plans.

Like buying random plants I may or may not have murdered.”

Colton: Thanks, I appreciate that. Colton: Hey, I'm cool with that. Come on, live a little with the rest of us. It'll be fun. @coradeveraux

Cora: Oh, shoot. That's dark. Cora: Sorry about your brother. Cora: I know nothing about football. Are you sure you want to spend the whole evening explaining everything to me? @eternalconsxlationprize

Discovering Damon, the sweet yet spicy third book in the Behind The Camera series by Cora Rose & Nicole Dykes is out NOW!

I know most would probably describe me as a little uptight, unwilling to change, set in my ways… But the truth is, I just like my life the way it is—simple and predictable. I have everything I need—good friends, family close by, and my automotive business that I’ve built from the ground up. I’m proud of the life I’ve made in this quiet small town. Nothing needs to change. At least, that’s what I believed up until the day Damon Deveraux, a lively and bold little whirlwind of a man in lip gloss and short shorts, saunters into my life and changes everything. He captivates me with his bubbly charm and adorable clumsiness, and suddenly we’re fast friends, spending all our time together. But I don’t know what’s happening to me. I’m just so confused. Because I’ve never fixated on another man’s pouty lips before. I’ve never obsessed over the curve of another man’s body. I’ve never desired the feel of another man curled up against me. And when I discover Damon’s camboy site and—accidentally on purpose—subscribe to his live show, all bets are off. Because for the first time, I’m realizing that maybe the sweet, sassy boy next door is everything I never knew I needed.
