[fabray-austinsub]

(F2F, Oz) After the auction, he found himself wandering through the cells again. He wasn't even involved, but he still felt like he needed days of scalding showers to wash the filth of the whole situation from his skin. Oz rubbed the bridge of his nose, pausing outside of a cell when he noticed a familiar face. He frowned, reading the sign on the door. "Whoever equates having a small dick with being sexually useless is, frankly, an idiot," he said with a shake of his head.

The auction was - in a word - awful. All those eyes on him, all those things being said about him as he stood there publically nude, covered in bruises, it was too much. He was shocked when he was happy to be back in the cell, where he could attempt to hide himself. He looked up when he heard the voice, instinctively moving back into the cell before he realized it was Oz. "Apparently it does," he said quietly. @domozchang

[dom-i-nate]

He heard the voice from another cell, trying to get a decent look at where it was coming from. "Shay? Is that you?" he squinted through the darkness as his eyes tried to recognize her. "Yeah pretty much the same boat. You have any injuries or anything?"

Despite her confidence going into the trip, Shay couldn't deny that even she hadn't been fully prepared to take on the situation she'd been placed in. The Domme had done well at maintaining her outward composure, though that didn't do much for the mess she'd devolved into on the inside. She'd kept to herself, understanding that there was no point in complaining, as she wasn't close to the only one suffering- another fact that hadn't escaped her. No matter her personal feelings on those surrounding her, ultimately the fact that they were all human beings, having a terrible common experience won over anything else that might have lingered. So, when Nate had spoken up, she did her best to keep the usual quip from her voice. "Yeah. What you said. As alright as I can be right now. And you?"

( closed starter for: @connievanderbilt ) location: Emira's house

Having already made plans to stay at Axel's house, Emira had Connie over for comfort, needing to be with close friends right now through this tragic event of the fires. "Thanks for coming over again, I don't think I can be alone right now through this," she said, sitting down on the couch beside her bestie and pulling in a pillow to wrap her arms around. "This town has been through so much already..."

She wasn’t above lying to get what she wanted. Ciri grinned as she secured herself a very, very surface level tour of the research center, just by promising to think about the reallocation of some funds. Funny that no one else had thought to offer that. Even though the tour would be basics only, it was good to foster relationships between herself and those she desired to know about. Allies tried to avoid attacking allies.

Ciri turned on her heel, nearly running into someone. They looked so familiar to her… why?

Oh! “You’re one of the others running for mayor, right? I think I saw your picture somewhere.”

@wickedpotions​ for baz!

[emiradursun]

Emira shook her head to his words. "Don't apologize. I feel much better and safer staying with you," she assured him, making sure that she had packed all of her necessities. While the two only lived a few mansions between each other, she figured it would be a little while until she came back home. Chuckling to his words about her thongs, she couldn't help but smirk. He was right. "It doesn't take that long for either of us to ruin them anyways." When she was all packed, she took note of him liking the lavender nightgown. "I might wear it to sleep tonight," she said, winking at him before following him downstairs. "I'll meet you at your car." Pressing a quick kiss to his cheek, she walked all over her large house to make sure everything was in its place and locked up. A couple of minutes passed and she was locking up her front door and walking to Axel's car and getting inside and sighed. "I can't believe this is happening..."

Axel crossed one ankle over the other as he leaned on her dresser, letting her take her time in packing. "People are fucking nuts. Sorry to make you up and move, but I'd just feel better with you at my place until they figure out who is doing this." His place was gated, and had cameras all along the outside. When she reprimanded him and told him not to stretch her thongs he smirked. "You've never had an issue with me ruining your thongs before." He watched as she put a lavender nightgown in her suitcase. "I like that one." When she said she was ready he nodded and reached for the case, taking it down the stairs for her. "Make sure you lock up really good."

⌘Midna Twili Open Starter⌘

Okay, admittedly, Midna didn’t entirely know what she was doing at first. While ruling a realm and being mayor had a lot of overlap in duties and expertise, they surely had their differences. For one, she had to teach herself how to campaign. A whole complicated mess of papers and advertising and public appearances.

Midna wasn’t dumb enough to go in completely blind. She spent a good few days researching it all in the library and via her new laptop. After a while, she felt as if she had a decent footing on the concept, so she decided that she would indeed run for office. She felt like she could do some good for this dreary place, and if worse came to worse, she would have had a fun time along the way.

That's how Midna found herself campaigning in the park under a tiny pop up tent to block off the sun. It was a nice day, which hopefully meant lots of walkers to hand fliers to.

As someone approached, Midna tucked her shoulders back, threw on a pretty smile, and held out a little metal circle in their direction, “Morning! Do you have a second to talk about our mayoral campaign? Want a button?”

@jankyifiedmen​

Out of all the faces he could have seen this was one of those faces he had silently hoped for since he first arrived here. He had so many regrets when it came to Owen and Toshiko. The main one being his inability to protect them. Their deaths would forever haunt him, day and night. Just the curse of being immortal. 

Just staring at the other for a couple of seconds, Jack then took a deep breath and pinched the bridge of his nose. Oh this couldn’t be happening, right? This must be some trick.

[emiradursun]

While knowing that she was going to stay with Axel and wanted to spend time with him, Emira had to step away from the house and get out to clear her head. Walking down main street and trying not to worry too much, she saw Christina sitting on one of the benches with her son sitting on her lap and decided to approach. "Hey," she said softly. "Do you mind if I join you guys?"

main street w/ @emiradursun

Christina leans back against one of the benches, her son sitting on her lap. His head against her shoulder and her chin is gently resting against the top of his head as her fingers brush through the brown strands of his hair as she tries to catch her breath from the emotions she went through hours prior. She turns her head when she hears her name, lifting her eyes up to see Emira. "Hi." She whispers.

“Do you think they’re doing some avant garde thing? Or they just let some kids go mad with the lighting?” James laughed as he turned to Lily, taking his gaze off of the house with some randomly strewn lights. 

It wasn’t the best house on their little holiday light tour, but it certainly was the most haphazard. Which would be exactly how James would describe whatever this thing was between him and Lily. Friends with benefits? Dating? 

Was this even a date?

@ofmvoonlight​ for lily! 

[lucasxpatel]

Lucas wasn’t seeking him out in particular, but when his gaze fell upon the Shadowhunter, he couldn’t help but smile warmly. He held up his hand to get Min’s attention.

“Māya ḍiyara mitra!” He pushed through the crowd until he was directly in front of Min. He placed his palms together in front of his chest, bowing slightly. “My dear friend. Namaste.” When he lifted his gaze, he was grinning. “I was hoping to see you here. It’s a small town, but there are so many people. I was afraid I might miss you.” He grinned, tilting his head to the side slightly. “Did I surprise you, or did you see me coming?” He didn’t make a move to touch Min, not sure if that was allowed when the guy wasn’t high. He didn’t want to overstep in public. Some people had hang ups about that.

[elenaxrusso]

Elena hadn’t wanted to go to the fair, but her siblings had begged and needled her until she relented. She highly doubted Harris would be there, and if he was she’d be able to smell from far enough away she could hide or change direction before they ran into each other. She wasn’t really in the mood for a fair either, but even though her siblings were old enough to go alone and she trusted them to be safe, she couldn’t say no to their pleading faces.

And that is how she found herself in line for one of the rides, not intending to go on but standing with her siblings in line, hugging herself and doing her best to smile and not look as miserable as she felt. She took a step back as Alex started a plastic sword fight with Ethan, running into the person behind her.

“Oh, sorry,” she said, feeling her cheeks warm, especially when she saw who it was she’d run into. “Um. Hi. Again.” What did she say? “Um, it’s, um, good to see you’ve got clothes on this time?” Stupid.

[judahxbachmann]

Judah was technically working. He was supposed to take pictures of the fair activities for the Observer’s official article on it, but he was finding it difficult to remain focused on just taking photos. Everything looked like so much fun and he’d already eaten about six elephant ears. 

Everyone once in a while he’d approach couples and offer to take photos of them for a small fee, using his polaroid for that. When he caught sight of a new familiar face, he couldn’t help but grin and take a snapshot first, before approaching the guy.

“Hey, Hagen!” he called as he walked over, developing photo in hand. “You look like you’re having fun. Proof.” He held up the photo for the other to see the candid of him grinning at whatever he’d been looking at before. “You can keep that if you want. No charge.” He held it out to Hagen.

(( @projecthagen​ ))

[reaperxnoah]

“Aidan! Aidan, look! I won a prize!” Noah called out, waving the bear back and forth over his head as he rushed toward his friend. Best friend, is what Noah had called him to Freja, and warmth grows in his chest, as he comes to a stop in front of the man. “Do you think Lizzie will like it? She’s my girlfriend now, and you’re supposed to give your girlfriend the prizes you win, right?” He looked up at Aidan, hoping the dragon would know more about relationships than he did.

(( @whentaidan​ ))

[beauxnavarre]

Beau wasn’t interested in attending the fair. Why should he care about Founder’s Day? He wasn’t from here. And he had nothing to give to charity either (well, not nothing, he just didn’t want to part with anything).

But Henri really wanted to go, for some reason, and despite Beau’s protests, the vampire was insistent he go out and have some fun with him. It had been a while since they’d actually gone out and done stuff together that wasn’t related to sex. Maybe it would be fun. Maybe. Emery would probably be there too, but Beau could tune him out.

So that’s how he came to be in the middle of the fairgrounds, surrounded by loud, sticky children and their frazzled parents.

“This is a nightmare,” he stated.
