Ender didn't go out all that much after settling down in this universe. He was done roaming the stars and the worlds of here and not there to find answers and such. It was tiring, trying to find meaning in everything. How long had it been since he flew up into space? Being an accountant wasn't something he was quite fond of, but at least it gave some semblance of meaning into his rather meager existence. He sighs at the thought as he makes his way into the bar he'd been hearing from the grapevine.

It seemed like a slow night, not many people around and it was pretty quiet minus the music. Ender goes up and takes a seat at the bar. He wasn't sure what to order as he looks at his phone to see what he could get.

"Here it is," the android murmured, sticking her key into the lock, and unceremoniously body-slamming her front door ajar, "Home sweet home, as they say."

The sun was slowly setting, and Arma's half of the rental house (the basement portion, of course) offered shelter from the grinding, over-stimulating implements of her world. Even as she beckoned for Pari to follow, a massive, hulking street sweeper slid past on the street, a monolith of flashing lights and horns.

While the android's apartment, like her car, cast the debonair and sultry woman in a slightly more austere light, Arma had done her best to make it at least somewhat inviting, without endangering her security deposit.

"Would you like something to eat?" she purred, slipping out of her giant fur coat. Arma also seemed to drop a meter in stature as she took her high heels off. "I was planning on making some soup."

Combed through the drama and found a few (major) translation errors. Will be putting the worst ones in the post as well.

The thing about shows like these is that how a non-Chinese speaking audience will interpret it almost solely depends on the quality of the translation. When I said the translation for this show is okay, that's compared to other truly bad translations out there, and doesn't mean the translation for this drama is great by any means.

"Into The Blue" Closed RP With @the-expatriate

Tonight was dragging on like always. Every major hunt was like that. So much work, tracking, note taking, double checking to make sure no detail was missed. The man was methodical at the very least. That's what made him good at his job. Usually a thankless endeavor, but it kept people safe.

Tonight's quarry wasn't your usual animal, beast, or any relatively sane creature. The man was hunting a vampire. A lesser vampire to be exact, but one that had been encroaching on a town. It was getting all too comfortable with being around civilians. That made it dangerous. People would chalk it up to a serial killer. It was hard for people to see the truth, and those who did were labeled as crazy. It was easier than accepting the fact that they weren't at the top of the food chain.

The man had been tracking his quarry for two days. Something seemed off about this specimen. It wasn't behaving as it should. This made the man's usual hunting method less effective than it should be. The monster shouldn't be acting this way, it had some sort of secret... Though that didn't make any sense. These things ran on pure instinct, hunt and eat people. Sure they were a little more careful than say a ghoul... But they didn't have a mind, or thoughts. The man jotted his thoughts down in his notebook.

He sniffed the air, smelling a coming storm. He had to act quickly before the rain came down and he lost the vampire's trail. He followed the trail to the edge of town, cursing under his breath. The beast was in town. He had to act quickly or someone else was going to die.

@the-expatriate continued from here

"Oh my goodness. There's only one person I know who'd be a very large cat. Shade!" She'd then start to make kissy noises and fuss over the massive feeling. "Come on over here, let me try and help."

His ears pricked forward and his eyes dilated. Why were those kissy noises suddenly so enticing?

The distance between the two of them was closed quickly with a jaunty walk and then he laid down to get his face closer to her.

"Walk Down Memory Lane" for a thread where your muse witnesses a few of my muse's memories. ((For Bill please! It's been a while :)))

Madrid, November 1674

"I don't think that's a suitable method of handling these hunters, William," Leofric said, as he took another note of the current grimoire he was using.

"And I think it is," Bill said, grinning, "I scramble their brains and leave their mindless bodies for medical science."

"No. We don't want to be just like them," Leofric said, "We can solve this diplomatically, without the need for such measures."

"And I think you want to sit!" Bill smirked as he said that last word, expecting his mesmerism to take effect and force Leofric to obey the command.

However, the look on Leofric's face suggested that he while felt the command, it simply slipped off him before it could gain any kind of grip at all. There was a red glint in the man's eye.

"Uhhh, nice dog?" Bill only asked as Leofric transformed into that huge imposing beast form that he had come to know and live, "Shit!"

He turned and ran, but he had no hope of out speeding the paladin. Leofric knocked him over with one harsh tackle, leaving him dazed, before he felt the sheer weight of the horse-sized canine sitting on him.

"Leofric..."

"You didn't say where," was all Leofric said in response.

Bill blinked and shook his head a little, having snapped out of the strange trance he slipped into while reminiscing on that event.

"Oh, Pari," he said, smiling, "Sorry, I must have zoned out. How long have you been doing there?"

[itisweselton]

Another formal ball, another situation where Pari very much felt out of her depth. While she was no stranger to social gatherings, she'd never been to something so.. formal.

Accompanying a friend who had since deserted her, Pari would try to weave her way through the crowd. Politely asking to be let through until she inevitably bumped into someone. Someone who looked a hell of a lot more important than she did.

"Oh my goodness, I'm so so sorry! Are you quite alright?"

At least she was ridiculously polite, if not completely sticking out like a sore thumb. Her elegant blue dress matching the colour of her hair.

"I'm fine. Please watch where you're going, Miss?" Edgar at last asked the lady who bumped into him. He noted her blue hair which made her stand out more among the other guests at the ball.

@the-expatriate continued from here

He wasn't the best in the "comfort" area with things like this, but... he could somewhat understand, right? "I'm... sorry to hear that," he muttered. "Here, I can, uh... help out in some way. I got time on my hands... is there anything I can do?"

[red-man-of-mustache]

@the-expatriate liked the starter call!

Giddy plumber inbound-- "Another human!" An odd thing to just blurt out at someone but humans weren't too common in the Mushroom Kingdom. Luigi,Peach, and Daisy were the ones he knew best. Wario & Waluigi weren't human. He refused to acknowledge them as such. "You must have-a just moved here, I'm-a Mario!" He took a few short leaps towards the female to close the distance and introduce himself. "I like-a the hair by the way, it sets you apart."

[booksofadventures-archived]

It didn't matter the season of the year, the twilight hours between sunset and dusk, though he did like the ones between dawn and sunrise when he could be awake for it, was his favourite time of the day. As long as the weather was clear and no threat of rain, he'd hate to damage his violin that way.

He sat on the bench in a quiet corner of this park as he careful took the violin case at his side and place it delicately onto his lap. Opening it up to let his fingers carefully run over the instrument inside.

This was his treasure and most prized possession.

He put the case back onto the bench at his side and took the instrument and bow out from the case. Resting it into the position to play it, it looked like another part of him like an extension of his being.

And then he began to play to himself mostly but he didn't mind if anyone else heard within the park, it was quiet this time of night and he loved the way the small wind and breeze would carry his music now as he slowly stood from the bench as he got lost in his music.

@the-expatriate // you found the musician!

I think the witch switch rebel group will be called the MONGEESE. This is an unfortunate number of letters for me to make an acronym with, but I like the idea of Steve picking the name because the Empress’ main symbol is a snake
