@trueforms    ✠    i didn’t live  –   yes,  it was the woods,  BUT when i was there.  there was a village and i lived there.  it’s like how the people of the past lived,  alright?  you can trust me,  mattea.  i wouldn’t bring you guys any harm,  okay?

no  offense,    sweet  aspen,    but  you’re  a  little  critter  from  the  woods.      THE  woods.     that  place  is  a  hell  with  trees,    and  anyone  or  anything  could  be  there.     so  why  should  i  just  simply  trust  you?

@trueforms    ✠    .  .   am i really that untrustworthy,  mattea?  i  –    have i done something to have wronged you?

@oceansgift    ✠    what?  no,  no  —  don’t apologize.  i was just slightly startled.  that’s all.  *  the familiar replied,  awkwardly fiddling with his thumbs as he looked elsewhere.  unable to meet the strangers gaze,  feeling some sense of wariness  (  the good way,  )  *  aspen,  and you?  

*     the  stranger  proceeds  to  blink  and  back  away  a  moment.      he  looks  at  the  other  through  a  nest  of  bangs  before  he  shrugs     *   i...     apologize.   i  didn’t  mean  to...    sorry.    who’re  you?

@oceansgift    ✠    i’m merely confused as to why  .  .    hm.  why are YOU looking at me like THAT?

@gracemovement    ✠    ah,  yes.  i am,  but i can tell she isn’t present in the room.  do you know where she went?

@trueforms    ✠    gwen is more tolerable.  besides,  i don’t really need to explain to you why i hate you so much.  just know —  you suck.  now shoo.  i have  .  .  homework to finish.  i guess.

▕     @praecantatives     ˊ     geez.     why  do  you  hate  me  so  much?     we’ve  barely  spoken.     i  mean,     i  get  it,     i  can  get  annoying,     but  gwen  can  too.

@trueforms    ✠    no,  i just never liked them to begin with.  *  he replied simply with his eyes narrowing,  a scowl leaving his lips.  *  i’m starting to resent you even more then i did.

* id. @praecantatives † w — well, when taken out of context, / no / . . . but it’s just from a nosebleed i got earlier. .

@edenrots    ✠    . .  right, so the blood all over your hand isn’t a bad thing  ?  

right  ,   yeah  .    *  she walked over to the door  ,   looking back and flashing a small smile  *   if you need anything else just let me know  .   good night  ,   aspen  .   *  and with that  ,   she exited out of the room  *  

@cautiousone    ✠    fine. just for your sake then —  but uh —  i’m finished with the soup, so i’ll jus head to bed now. kay  ?

uh  ,    yes i do  .   the temperature is dropping really quickly  .   that  ,   and you’ll stick out like a sore thumb at school if you don’t dress properly in a accordance to the season  .
