@alyafae gets a plotted starter

Freeing Silva from the prison transport had been a group effort with Aisha and Terra actively playing their parts. It had been a great risk for all, but not only did Bloom know he was no cold-blooded killer, she also knew she needed his help to find a person very close to both of them. Unable to help outside from planning the move, Bloom paced restlessly in the abandoned house outside the barrier where Aisha and Terra were meant to bring Silva after freeing him.

When the three finally showed up, Bloom could not help but move to embrace the man who had been like a father figure to her growing up. "Uncle Saul," she sighed with relief as she pulled back and looked up at him. "I was so worried."

“Farah, I’m telling you,” Noor said, her voice low as she spoke to her aunt, her eyes occasionally blinking over the room, the vibes still incredibly weird after all of....the commotion. “You don’t have to worry. That kinda thing is totally not normal, no matter what they’re saying,” she lied, her eyes settling on Rhiannon, brightening up at the other girl, knowing Farah would absolutely adore her. “Rhia!” Noor called, motioning over the girl. “Come join us,” she cooed.

At the other girl sitting, Noor introduced Farah, her expression bright as she did so. “Favorite aunt,” Farah chimed in to say, a sly smile crossing her face. “You’re not alone, are you?”

"Recklessness is warranted sometimes, isn't it? I couldn't exactly let them send you to Polaris on a bullshit attempted murder charge," Bloom said, returning the smile. Seeing that Silva was still a little weak, she wrapped an arm around him again to help him to a chair. "Besides," she added once he was seated, "it's not what Mom would want."

"I'll go and see about a tincture and some bandages for his injuries," Terra piped up helpfully. "And I'll be outside," said Aisha as both moved to exit.

To say he had accepted his fate would have been rather inaccurate but it had seemed as if there was no way out. Until he got some unexpected help to make it out of captivity. While it didn't happen without any injuries, Saul knew he had experienced worse things before. Grateful for their help, he followed Aisha and Terra, not surprised at all to come face to face with Bloom. Who else would have planned such a reckless operation?

A grunt escaped him the moment Bloom pulled him into a hug, his own arms wrapping around the girl and holding her close for a moment. Parting again, Saul kept a hand on Bloom's shoulder, both because he sought the connection but also because it help him steady himself. "That has to be the most reckless thing you have ever done," he told her but eventually offered her a small smile. "But thank you. It is good to see you again."

who: @rewdmello​ when/where: the harvest ball

Noor and Farah were giggling over some sort of gossip as the two were prone to do while they were together, her aunt someone Noor absolutely adored. She had practically dragged her to the gala, knowing they would have a blast, figuring they would down champagne and explore, Farah in her element with the art and sculptures that dotted the chateau. And she had been, Noor learning nearly as much that night as she would’ve in a week of classes from Farah jabbering away about what was displayed, even now as they grabbed champagne and looked for seats to settle down in. As they were making their way through the room, Negin motioned with her chin towards some empty seats, the two making their in that direction, their heads tipped towards each other as they continued to chat.

It was too late when Noor realized who was occupying the other seats at that table, her step stuttering when she realized it was Carew, presumably with his family members. It wasn’t that she had anything against introducing guys to Farah - though her first choice would’ve been her other aunt, Negin, if she was being honest - but her and Carew weren’t even a thing. They had just...hooked up a few times. Approaching him with her family was stage 5 behavior. But their approach had already been noted, Noor shaking her hair back and flashing him a smile. “Mind if we steal these seats?”
