@liveshaunted asked: on three, we jump into that pile of leaves. ready? - Ash @ Jasmine?

Jasmine feels a bit childish doing all of this but she realizes that truthfully she doesn't care. She likes how Ash puts a smile on her face how she's laughing rather than fussing over stupid shit. "Alright then I'll count us back. I swear if you chicken out on me I'll drag you into that leaf pile." She warns before counting them down. Three... two... one!

@liveshaunted plotted starter for Morgan

He didn't think before he dove. Having spotted the driftwood and body upon it just as they slipped into the sea, sinking even as they struggled. The shout of man overboard leaving his lips right before he'd arched over the side of the railing. His own body cutting into the salty waves with ease, like a knife into butter. Powerful kicks push him deeper into the blue depths after the sinking person.

Hand finally catching their wrist he pulled their body up, other arm wrapping around their torso as he turned back to the surface and began rising. Dimily registering that she was female, though not really caring where his arm was placed. Getting her above water was more important. Pulling them both back towards the sunlight high above and the shadow of the Merry upon the waves.

Head breaking through the gentle swells of the calm ocean above he gasped for air before ensuring that her head was pulled fully out of the water. Bracing it upon his shoulder as he tread water, waiting for Sanji to throw him a rope. "Hang on, I've got you."

Damit, was she breathing?

@liveshaunted: “I thought I’d find you here.” - Lottie @ Travis

noticing starters / accepting

"That so?" he asks, not glancing back just yet. He supposes it's not much of a shock that he spends time at the edge of the frozen not frozen enough lake. He...doesn't know what he would have done if he had been there, or what would have happened there, but the fact that he had just gotten Javi back and he wasn't there when he died sits with him. Almost as much as the fact that Javi wouldn't have been out there if it wasn't for him. And...it's not like there's much left of his brother to morn, so the edge of the lake is the close as he gets to having something like that.

He hasn't wanted to show any of that grief to the others. He's always been quiet about any feeling that wasn't anger, and especially now, knowing the judgement he might face if he did, he's kept it to himself since that night. So he tries to brush off what Lottie says. "You shouldn't be out here," he starts, finally turning to her, "You still gotta take it easy."

@liveshaunted gets a starter!

there's tears gathered in steve's eyes as he looks at eddie, betrayal written all over his face. "so what? this all just been a lie? a-all of it? you tricked me, made me fall in love with you, all for what? a fucking bet?" he takes several steps back, shaking his head as he does. "i know i used to be an ass, but i don't fucking deserve this. i wouldn't have done this to you, i wouldn't have done this to anyone." his eyes harden now, despite the tears still in them. "i guess you're pretty damn proud of yourself though, huh? how much money do you get for breaking my heart?"

@liveshaunted said: ❛ if i didn't know any better, i'd say you were jealous. ❜ (from lottie)

Eyes narrowing, she lets out a scoff. "I'm not jealous," Shauna says. She was though, a feeling that always seemed to seethe just under the surface of her skin. It was a feeling she always seemed to circle back around to as well, some sort of vicious cycle.

She just wanted to be seen, was that so bad? Shauna wanted the things she did and the person she was to be acknowledged. (Just once would be fucking nice.) And more than that, she wanted to be chosen.

After all, wasn't it them who kept putting the knife back in her hand? It felt cruel, to forge this role for her and then make her feel like it didn't matter. She clearly had the guts to do what no one else did. Sure, some of it was her choice, but by now this had all extended far past what any of them had ever anticipated. It made her insides twist with a bitterness she couldn't quite seem to get off her tongue.

"This is stupid, you know? I don't care what you think. I am so over caring about what any of you think."

@liveshaunted asked:

❛ sometimes human spaces make inhuman monsters. ❜ - Nancy @ Chrissy

"You're calling me a monster?" Chrissy said softly as she wrapped her arms around her legs, pulling them close to her chest. She hadn't been right for awhile and then the day happened when she just about died. "I feel like a monster, he's in my head, he won't stop."

liveshaunted asked: ❛ i had it under control. you didn’t need to do that. ❜ - Maya

she scoffs, her eyebrows raised. did maya really have it under control? or was this another thing that taissa would have to fix when the time came for it? she slowly blinks, acting like this was the easiest thing in the world. "we needed it done and now it is. i don't think there's much to say besides that."

@liveshaunted LEFT A LETTER: “why? why did you do it?”  - Steve

                              Dropping the stake, she rushed over to Steve dramatically, somewhat out of breath from the adrenaline. He'd snuck up behind her and scared her. ❝   It was an accident, I'm sorry !   ❞ She's quick to say as she examines him. She knew she didn't hurt him, but she very well could've if she wasn't more careful, ❝   Steve, I didn't know it was you, I'm sorry !   ❞

@liveshaunted asked: “if you knew all that i’d done … the hearts i’ve broken.” - Nancy @ Chrissy?

"breaking hearts doesn't make you a bad person, nancy. despite what some people would have you believe." the former cheerleader's voice was soft and she hoped that the tone of her words were soothing. she reached over, giving the other girl's hand a gentle squeeze. "everybody breaks hearts and everybody gets their hearts broken in one way or another. i don't think you can go through life without that happening. i think how you handle that heartbreak or handle the heartbreaking is what really defines who you are."

she suddenly gave a small laugh, shaking her head. "look at me, trying to make you feel better, as if i'm an expert on the subject or something. i don't suppose that i can really talk, considering the only person that i've ever dated was jason."

[ruinouss]

Faye nodded, listening to them and working on ideas that would keep Morgan from having to use that ability as much as possible. If lucky, they may even be able to avoid it altogether. That would be ideal considering they had no real reason to assist her with this investigation. If other hunters did arrive there was still a possibility they wouldn't even come to their business and start any trouble.

"I won't have ya kill anyone unless it's in self-defense but I don't imagine that's gonna happen just visitin' the morgue," she smiled slightly. "I don't think I can thank ya enough for agreein'. When would you be free to go?" She inquired. The morgue was likely to be closing soon and earlier had learned the workers rarely stayed late if it could be helped. There was a rumor or something that the building was haunted but with how old the building was she chopped it up to weird noises and events that often came with an old buildings.

"I only avoid my death inducement power, killing people, not my thing." Morgan comments with a light shrug of their shoulders as they place their hands into the pocket of their jeans. It's not pleasent to use, as it tends to make it feel like they're sapping the life out of someone to give to themself - which is a horrible thought to think about, so Morgan avoids using their Death Inducment specfically.

Morgan listens as Faye speaks, thoughts and infomation pulling into their mind as she asks her question. "I know of a few, but probably can't be certian unless I see the wounds." As gruelling as it may sound to others, but Morgan is a visuial person so seeing what it looks like would be better for them to idenfity or at least narrow things down for whatever was out there hurting innocents. "They do say a second pair of eyes is a good thing. I can certainly do that and come with you to see if you may have."

@liveshaunted asked: ❛ before you do anything, try this and tell me what you think. ❜ Theo @ Eleanor?

Eleanor is about to go grab a bottle of wine when she stops to see what Theo has to say. She nods leaning over and getting a spoonful to taste it. Her eyes go wide as she does because the taste is amazing. "How- I mean genuinely how did you do that? Holy shit that is so good. Okay I was going to grab a bottle of white wine to go with this but I think now I'll grab a red. I'll be right back." She says putting the tasting spoon in the sink before heading to grab a bottle of wine.

@liveshaunted: nothing in this universe is what you think it is. - Lottie @ Jackie

mabel starters / accepting

"...Right." What the fuck is she supposed to do with that? It's a strange statement on it's own, and with everything going on...the statement was definitely a bit unnerving. She's quiet for a moment, watching Lottie. With Lottie's strange behavior lately, Jackie feels a little anxious talking to her. Like one wrong word will stir her back into muttering in French. Maybe that's not fair, but Jackie's not used to handling things like this. So like every situation she feels lost in, it stresses her out. So she tries to play it safe.

"Are you alright?"

@liveshaunted gets a starter!

steve is laying next to eddie, head buried in the other's chest, breathing in his scent, and being able to smell eddie is the only thing that keeps him calm enough to close his eyes. sometimes he's just afraid if he closes them for too long when he opens them, eddie will be gone. he's trying to work on that, but it's hard after almost losing him. he pulls back a little, eyes opening, to give a soft smile, absentmindedly tracing his jaw, fingers grazing the scar there. "hi." he says, voice soft. "i love you, d'you know that?"

[lcveblossomed]

Brandy likes her job and while this isn't going to make her change careers she does have a feeling that this would make for an interesting story. She would tell her friends about it later about the bridesmaid for hire she talked to. She is imagining having to go to so many weddings all the awful dresses and mindless small talk. "Alright that's fair. God do you keep any of the dresses? I know they say oh it's so pretty you can wear it again but it basically never is."

"Excatly," And there were some perks of it, that were great. The only wedding that they think they're ever gonna have close relationship to others with, is maybe their brother's - but that is if he gets married and invites her. Not sure how much influence her parents still have over her brother - the golden child. "It's a wonderful job. I get to be a bitch and I am paid for it. Hmmm depends, honestly. Sometimes I might buy the bride a cute little necklace or bracelet, but other then that - I'm not required to do anything the other guest are required too. No, it's not too nosy, I love answering things." It may sound a little self centered but she likes it when people ask questions because it means no dull in the conversation, and if Maddox didn't like it they could always change the subjecct.
