Starter for @seakiumi

The city outside her apartment window was busy and bustling, honking horns and people talking, shouting, laughing, singing, and the like. Violet eyes looked out over what she could see of the skyline while sitting at her computer Aurora seemed to sigh trying to come up with more ideas for an upcoming novel under her pen name Vivian Solice. “Uncovered” a story with a busy city and an underbelly of mystery the main character what been thrust into. Half ignoring the music coming from the speakers of her computer she almost hasn’t noticed the ding from the incoming email from her editor with some well needed information.

“V, I’ve got some good news! I was able to get you an in! You’ll be starting at one of the local tattoo shops down on the lower east end. I’ve included the address. I hope this helps with you recent novel research. And I look forward to seeing your draft when you’re able to get back.”

Sitting much more upright in the arm chair she had been using as a computer chair. Aurora read over the email jotted down the address, phone number and the name of the shop informant willing to help her get an apprenticeship. Several days had passed since the email came in, contact had been made to the shop and she’d be starting at the end of the week. This didn’t give her much time to find clothing that would better fit in rather than wearing the mostly business casual clothing she currently owned. Opting instead for the “biker chick” aesthetic. Jeans and leather pants, cropped tops and leather jackets.

Looking in the mirror Aurora stood turning from side to side looking at her new cloths on herself. Damn she looked good, dare she think better than her usual clothing.

Several weeks had gone by and she’d been learning quite a bit about the small shop, and it wasn’t long before most people knew her as beauty. And honestly she didn’t bother to correct anyone, feeling damn good about it. Someone stumbled in through the door looking for a “tattoo”. Another client like their usual clientele. But something didn’t feel right when she’d been called to the back to grab their “special” ink.

“Alright let’s do this.” Everything seemed to be going normally, Aurora would watch from over the artists shoulder and the client sitting bare chest cover in a simple “flash stencil”, one it seemed most of the clients knew about but wasn’t on any board or in any book.

It didn’t take long for the client to begin foaming at the mouth and shaking violently. “Damn it all… not again…” was commented under the breath of the artist. “Oi Beauty, go grab the black book under the reg and call the third number down. Tell em we’ve got another one down and get back here.”

Doing as asked Aurora found his words strange and seemingly out of place for a shop that seemed in good standing. But still did as asked without hesitation. She may not have known exactly what was happening but did know enough to act quickly. Finding the book and getting the phone to call out felt like it had taken hours even though it was more like seconds. Ringing sounded, and with each one Aurora paced at the desk. “Come on…come on come on come on, pick up…” a hand raked through her hair. As soon as the other end picked up she spoke her lines in a rush and hung up to get back to let the artist know she’d called. “Good no get outside and keep watch for a tall blond!”

“But shouldn’t we get the hos…”

“Don’t be stupid! Now get outside and wait!”

While it was still unclear what was really happening Aurora did know at least enough to know the client had been ODing. She’d heard and read about the signs but at this time she hadn’t a clue that this would have been tied into the tattoo gun and ink itself. Sighing and half pacing hand back in her hair she waited.

It was the sudden sound of the large metal door of the chamber as well as the sound of another person talking that woke her up.

She wasnt sure how long she had been out and she wasnt able to recall what had happend before she had fallen asleep.

With a small yawn, she sat up from the kingsized bed she was laying on and looked around the unfamilar room. It looked like she was sleeping in some kind enchanted forest. While looking around, she spotted the source of the voice she had hurt.

"Oh hello there..... Do you know where i am? I cannot seem to recall how i ended up here."

Aurora was caught off guard by the sudden sound of a voice and she was even more surprised to see a woman dtand in front of her, who somehow knew who she was.

One thing she did realize pretty quickly was thst this clearly wasnt one of her mother's followers, seeing as she had already met all of them at the castle, so she wondered who this could be... At least she might not have to worry about being forced back home.

"....umm h-hello? I'm not sure who you are.... but you seem to know me... a-are you gonna force me home?"

@mama-grimm

Raven isn't exactly sure who she's looking at, but the vibes on this girl are unmistakable. She can even see the resemblance in the girl's face, now that she thinks about it. Had Salem moved her plans up without telling Raven about them? This could go bad quickly.

"Well, this is certainly a surprise. You're Salem's kid, right?"

Halloween costumes - @seakiumi

Aurora had been sitting on the couch, back against the arm rest, knees up and feet tucked close to the edge of the cousin. Scrolling her phone she paused and looked up over the back of the couch at him. Tilting her head slightly in thought she placed a finger to her lips. “Hmm, well I think you going as a doctor would be too cliche don’t you think? What about a pirate? I think you’d make a ‘dashing’ pirate.” She grinned happily with her thoughts on what he could wear for Halloween.

"What is a Huntsman? You mention your brother being one but im not sure what that is."

That was properly the best question to start off with, as she was very curious about what exactly a huntsman was. Was she right to assume it's some kind of job?

"As long as we're not getting into anything too deep, philosophical, or personal, I think it should be alright. What's on your mind?"

While she waits to hear the question, she opts to get started putting the groceries away.

@redacted-muses liked for a Aurora starter

(For May)

It had been a rather slow day in the hideout for the young girl, so she decided that she would take a trip to the nearby town, and just take in the sights, without getting lost this time.

She made sure to cover her grimmified arm before heading out, as she knew most people wont take kindly to the sight of it.

She entered the town from one of the gates and began to wonder around. She was so focused on the things around her, that she failed to noticed anything in feont of her.

Suddenly she crashed into someone and fall to the ground, letting out a tiny noise of pain.

It was a bit embarrassing to admit it but she had indeed gotten lost. She had thought it would be fine for her to take a small walk around the city without one of her caretakers for once, but she had quickly been proven wrong.

She had ended up wandering for a while, before she bumped into the person in front of her.

"....I-I might be a tiny bit lost...."

@mama-grimm liked for a Noire starter!

Noire didn't recognize the girl standing in front of her. Not that she could be expected to rexognize every one, but she become familiar with most of the Atlesian refugees and a lot of the kids at Shade academy.

"I haven't seen you around here, before. Are you lost?"
