me personally? i die every night and come back wrong every morning but no one notices because i've been doing that for a long time so it's just kinda par for the course

the creases marked by her smile become a map of wonder at his acceptance. raising the fine glass to her mouth, viviane finished her drink, throwing her head back and swallowing the last gulp of champagne -- she wouldn't waste a drop. then, she placed the empty glass down on a table beside them, freeing her hands in order to take hold of his. and so boldly, she does. "you'll have to keep up, see." something foreign takes root in the pit of her stomach, how his hand fits in hers. . . a familiarity in every line on his palm, soft yet roughened by experiences she can only wonder off. they make way through the crowd, others around them swaying delicately to the orchestral notes weaved throughout the room.

thoughts  consume,  hovering  and  halving  his  attention  as  tendrils  of  doubt  begin  to  worm  their  way  into  the  soles  of  his  feet;   anchoring  him  to  the  spot.   gurgi  was  likely  tipping  over  the  trashcan  at  home  and  eating  all  contents  within,  and  here  theo  was  at  a  beautiful  event  where  he  seemingly  felt  misplaced  without  a  friend  to  be  spoken  with.  it  is  amongst  the  art  where  he  stands,  staring  out  into  the  crowd  with  a  flute  of  champagne  to  his  lips  that  sparkles  against  the  roof  of  his  mouth.   "  you  look  like  you  need  saving  "  ,  a  voice  says  to  his  right  and  theo  turns  ;  something  then  surging  in  his  chest  at  the  sight  of  her.  something  he  could  not  name.   something  he  was  sure  that,  despite  the  suddenness  of  it,   he  did  not  dislike.  "  me,  saving?  "  despite  the  words,  a  quirk  of  his  lips  indicates  a  lilt  of  playfulness.  if  he  was  waiting  for  someone,   they  surely  weren't  yet  to  arrive,  and  not  even  theo  could  deny  himself  the  urge  to  accept  her  offer;  though  some  part  of  him  wishes  he  had  asked  her  first.  "  of  course,  lead  the  way.  "

starter for theo jakobs of @storybroke. featuring viviane myricks at the emerald city art gallery fundraiser.

she had slowly wandered around the grand hall, a flute of expensive libations in her hand that never seemed to empty. viviane had lost their friends to the celebrations, or perhaps something more troublesome, but either way they had evaded her for the time being -- and she was capable of finding her own fun, despite certain figures of importance keeping her on her toes, watching her back for sharpened glares that cut deeply. sipping at the beverage, her feet carried her with a graceful click clacking of heels, drowned out among the many others in the room. while standing by a table of horderves, a sight that befalls her invokes a curiosity, a man on his own. a glimpse here and there tells that he is confined to his own company, no one stepping forward that wasn't an acquaintance or a waiter offering a refill on his drink of choice. if he was waiting on someone, viviane was certain that they could wait just a little longer. "you look like you need saving," she iterates, approaching with a warmth and playfulness that radiates beneath her finely crafted mask. "come dance with me?"

starter for damian radna of @violentdelightstheseviolentends. featuring viviane myricks at the emerald city art gallery fundraiser.

"don't worry, mr. mayor. my nose is as clean as a whistle, so." a labored smile noway hides the pressures of the image enforced by his hand, a refined troublemaker and her diligent savior. if viviane put a foot out of line with damian present, there would be reparations. . . and after all the progress she had made, the lengths she had gone through to distance herself from his name, she would not risk it. for a night, she could behave. she could appease him, play the part. it's nothing she hadn't done before (and would likely do again). "it's apple juice. . . of the sparkling variety, if you must know."

starter for jinyu klau of @grimmtale and dylan graham of @lvndersbloom. featuring viviane myricks at their home.

"hey, we're going to have fun. let's not let anything ruin it." sprawled over her bed like she had no better place to be, viviane tried to garner some more enthusiasm, an all too laid back approach toward the evening despite her own reservations. there was only one thing that could tarnish it, and that was enchanted falls very own 'darling mayor'. she watched the others put on their final touches, dragging out herself getting changed into something more befitting for the occasion in the meantime. "and if anything does . . . i have a stash of the finest liquor i could get my hands on, we can have our own party!"

starter for esme kapoor of @perfectoffering. featuring dia coscoroba at the emerald city art gallery fundraiser.

"my, you are a vision." with such a familiar grace, it would be hard to misplace the woman -- regardless of the masks adorned by all in the room that had her head spinning. a few drinks late into the evening, dia's approach lacked her usual timidness. "enjoying the night? it was ever kind of them, you know. the musical will be marvelous."

"nor i, miss." in the never ending grandeur of his land, the extravagance was unparalleled to him. gleaming roads of fair yellow, untarnished emeralds that structured every detail of every building in the city of oz. . . it was all magnificent. finley stumbled into the masquerade in captivation, but he agreed. there was something missing. "perhaps it's true what they say of treasure, not all of it is gold."

" i don't think i've ever seen so much gold. " she admits, hands folding behind her as she glances across the ballroom. " i've read about the king and i've pictured this castle at least a hundred times - but i'm not sure how to feel. somehow it's all a bit lacking. "

princess eilonwy of llyr in attendance of king midas' masquerade ball, the enchanted forest. adorning traditional dress, her gown is compromised of delicate and plain fabric, accented by a sheer material on the sleeves and neckline with lace detailing. magnolious and obstinate as she, her mask is a hand welded brass with foreboding horns -- reminiscent of the horned king himself, signifying her entrapment at his hand, centered by a large black stone that represents protection. . . an immovable piece of treasure. her headpiece is shaped like a crown, that hovers above her head, with various crystals and a crescent moon, the emblem for the royal house of llyr.

we’re introduced to VIVIANE MYRICKS , the TWENTY FIVE years old BUSINESS OWNER at ANDALASIAN IMPORTS AND PERFUMERY from enchanted falls who bears a striking resemblance to SOPHIE THATCHER. the whispers in the wind tells us of their SELF - SUFFICENT and MISANTHROPIC reputation.  they are often haunted by dreams of a life lived as PRINCESS EILONWY OF LLYR, NIMUE (THE BLACK CAULDRON, THE LADY OF THE LAKE).

the townsfolk often are reminded of the damp musk of a secluded dungeon chamber, intricate detailing of a old iron doorknob, a incandescent shimmer orbiting her like her own personal sun, being a damsel to nothing.

FULL NAME: viviane myricks NICKNAME(S): vee, vivi, little anne AGE: twenty five DATE OF BIRTH: unknown, year of [redacted] ETHNICITY: white; of welsh, english and irish heritage GENDER: non - binary, assigned female at birth PRONOUNS: she / her, they / them SEXUAL ORIENTATION: pansexual ROMANTIC ORIENTATION: panromantic OCCUPATION: owner of andalasian imports and perfumery

... once upon a time ...

born into the royal house of llyr, the women in her family line were formidable enchantresses, including her mother, angharad, and grandmother regat. eilonwy was no different, readily visible in her manipulation of a magical orb, otherwise known as a golden pelydryn, that never left her side. she was once kidnapped and held captive by the horned king, after he assumed that her orb would allow him to locate and gain power of the mystical black cauldron to raise his undead army and rule the lands. when this proved unsuccessful, eilonwy was kept as a scullery maid until she made her escape -- defeating the horned king on his pursuit of power with the friends she had made along the way. many new adventures awaited her on her journey back to her kingdom.

eventually, she met the grand wizard merlin, and ceased the opportunity to learn all she can, by whatever means she could. although having been trained as a sorceress back in her kingdom and not a warrior, she was quite capable of using various kinds of weapons, particularly the sword, bow, and spear. even when unarmed, she would fight until incapacitated. hot tempered, stubborn, resolute . . . yet sharp, snippy, strong - willed, and sarcastic, but at the same time talkative and often scatterbrained. princess eilonwy would not be so easily defeated, by will or strength.

eilonwy had someone fill in her royal duties until she became of the age to be seated on the throne, despite being the sole heir in the house of llyr and an orphaned child. she spent most of her years in solitude before she had to face her obligations, and came to be known as the lady of the lake. a sorceress that resided within the bottom of a mystical lake, often associated with fairfolk and their fellow likeminded creatures, known for being quite the enchantress in many a tale. when king arthur broke the sword he pulled from the stone in battle with another king, merlin brought him to eilonwy, and she gifted him the sword known as excalibur. she never made it back to her kingdom before the curse befell them all.

... life in enchanted falls ...

the owner of their own business, andalasian imports and perfumery, viviane is quite the independent. having struggled with being in and out of foster care as a young child before the untimely death of her biological parents, she grew to know her way of being self - sufficient. . . and, of course, her way of attracting certain kinds of trouble. a reformed miscreant some would say, viviane focuses on keeping herself afloat most days, helping out at their shared apartment with dylan graham and jinyu klau. she also works part - time at the pandemonium as a bartender, not quite confident enough to pursue stepping up as a performer.
