    “ you there ! halt ! ” she called out, for as frilled and light her aesthetic may seem, her voice was hardened and battle worn. there was a brightness to her, burning and ready to fight for what she believed in. her posture was tense as she spotted the darker creature, lips curved into a frown. “ do you dare go against the star guardians ? ”

"Kayn.... I have been expecting you." he says -seductively-, promptly before he trips on his own feet and lands on the floor face first.

he’d only been home for about five minutes,  and in their room for little beyond one.

it’s a  tragedy,  really;  when kayn can barely move a step forward before shieda announces his presence,  then somehow,  suddenly manages to trip over himself and smack into the wooden floor beneath them.

————  oh.

what’s even more of a tragedy is the fact that accidents like these  (for either of them,  not just shieda)  were  alarmingly  common. how two prodigal students could ever hinder themselves more than anything or anyone else was  …  puzzling,  to say the least.

well,  at least it wasn’t the headboard again.

——  snicker.

❛  shi,  i’m shocked  …  ❜  kayn pauses for effect,  but his steadily forming grin most likely gives him away long before his following words do. he’s already  obnoxiously  proud of this one,  and he has yet to even finish.

❛  …  you really  fell for me.  ❜

Vaati would not consider himself a nostalgic person. Though some would say he’d grown soft over his stay in this city, he would still gladly call himself a villain- he was evil. He didn’t care for others. (He could insist as much as he wanted, at least. Nobody believed that.)

Still, he found himself making his way to the rivers of Cotes at night, lingering thoughts on his mind. It’d been.... a while since he’d seen her, hadn’t it? It wasn’t like that was a surprise- she’d gone home, as everyone seemed to eventually. But the strange feelings lingering in his chest had made him feel the desire to partake in the little tradition of this place with lighting candles.

“I wonder... how you’re doing...” He watched as the small candle floated down the river, sighing lightly. He stiffened up at the sounds of movement behind him- but rather than getting angry at a sudden impostor, he stood stock-still, eyes widened in shock.

“....Piper?”

                He was not lost, it was more so his soul that was lost and wandering this place, looking for their home, their place in the cosmos. She could feel it crying out to her, the same way she could feel the grove mourn and their weeping willow branches and ivy curling towards those who came to her. As the stardust and blood in her body beckons, she feels herself turn towards him in the same way that she and the grove would welcome the lost and in pain. 

                A lifeforce festers within him, apart of him, but it was like a disease that consumed not only the body but the psyche and the heart. Soraka knew of this lifeforce as her divine right and with her age extending to the very beginning of space and time, but she had not come face to face with it in quite some time. This lurking beast that waited in the boy’s shadow, in his own body, was one that beckoned forth death, that desperately craved for it. It made the power of the stars in his body burn underneath her skin. 

                Both of her hands clasp her staff as she fully turns to him, planting its base upon the earth. “Do you seek me, young one?”

shadowedsteps mentioned starguardian-syndra in a post “starguardian-syndra reblogged your post:SG!verse Kayn would totally be...”

“Oh, please. Give me the full treatment, I’m ready.”                                            Overconfident as always, Kayn..         “Oh, dear. I’d be careful if I were you. Challenging Syndra can potentially be very dangerous..” ^^;           @shadowedsteps

@shadowedsteps enters the saloon ( wtf you underaged dolt get out ... )

           Cain peers up from the small skinning knife he was sharpening towards the kid. Why was a teenager walking around with a massive weapon? 

            “Can I help you, kid?”

Hey Piper. What is up? I have heard you almost murdered Travis Touchdown while I have been away. Is this true? Would you like to talk about it?

   Familiar faces are helpful in a situation like this --- that is, being at a lively party when he’s someone who doesn’t often attend them. It may be all about trying new things and coming (even more) out of his shell once in a while, but he still finds himself gravitating toward things and people he’s already comfortable with. Of course, it’s also her costume that’s caught his eye. Cute is very much preferable to scary.

“Piper-san?��� Gonta lets out a laugh, though it’s well-meaning. “You look cute! Your costume, I mean.” And her, too, but he didn’t want to sound too forward calling a girl cute. Ah, he hopes he hasn’t already made things awkward...

Hey, uh... I was wondering if I could get this snowglobe music box I saw for sale in Golden. It's got a moon and star inside the globe, and the snow is more like glitter... it's really pretty, but they were sold out when I went to look.

☆☆☆ “Hehe.” What was that creepy laugh? “Sold out because I bought them all.” Which was cheating, really. She could give herself as much Dust as she needed. Even so, she presented a box with one of said snow globes inside. “I’m not taking requests, but I have too many of these.”

SHADOWSTEPS BEHIND YOU. "hehe. I love you, kid."

@shadowedsteps​

❛  oh,  no.  it appears i’ve been caught.  ❜

ah,  and how instantaneously he grins at the sound of that little laugh. he feigns defeat in the moments before he spins around,  still beaming,  still openly and unashamedly amused.

❛  now,  who are you calling a kid? hm, ��even so  —— ❜  kayn chuckles,  a beat in between his laugh and the shifts forward that follow until he’s looming over shieda;  closing in,  closer,  closer and then  …

a kiss,  short and sweet,  pressed to the center of his forehead. it should come as no surprise to either of them that he smirks immediately after.

❛  —— i happen to love you,  too,  kid.  ❜

Send [ heart ] + a character name to know my muse’s true feelings for that character. @forsakenpumpkin​ said:

[ heart ] + piper

“I-I... th-that’s...” There was a long pause before he actually managed to say anything- though the red on his face explained plenty. “Piper is... someone I care for. A good friend. And someone I... miss.”

[ dance ]

[ dance ] for your muse to dance with mine

Piper was doing her best to show Memo how to do this dance move, but Memo was having trouble following along when Piper was doing it so quickly.

“Pi-... Piper.. Piper!” she said, through laughter at how Piper was getting so into it.

“If you want me to learn, you have to slow down! Start with each step, okay? My arms like this, one behind... and then... this?”

One day Memo will master the art of flossing.

hi mods! i looked through the FAQ but didn't see anything about this, so! what happens to characters that migrated from Ye Old City when they go to yesteryear? could they recognize the landscape/find it hauntingly familiar?

Whatever do you mean? it’s totally based on a completely original, unrelated city.
