      /      come back :) 

@mortalpulse       ❛  i know you haven’t.   you can touch it if you want.  ❜  

@hellslyrics      a sly smile played at the corner of her mouth as the firelight traced along the sharp lines of her face,   throwing small shadows that seemed to move with her amusement.   ❛  hm..   maybe you’re right…   maybe hallow creek truly has nothing for an immortal like me.   ❜  she rose with deliberate grace,   brushing a speck of imaginary dust from her gloves.   a habit that spoke more of control than vanity.    the faint gleam of her eyes caught the shifting light as she straightened.  ❛  perhaps i should take your advice and find a horse to charm…    or a horizon to vanish behind.   ❜   her tone was light,  but her words carried an undercurrent….  a teasing ripple of something unspoken,   as if she were testing the air between them.  she turned toward him,   voice lilting now,   half jest,   half challenge.  ❛  though,   i must admit,   it’s not every day a man looks me dead in the eye and insists i leave his presence.    you are either very brave…   or very bad at hospitality.   ❜   her eyes softened then.  the air outside was cool and murmuring,   carrying the faint scent of pine and rain.   she looked out,  where the night waited.  ❛  but before i go…  ❜  she said,   the smirk returning to her lips.    ❛  do i not get a tour of the premises?   or do you only show your guests what you want them to see?  ❜ 

⠀⠀⠀    ⠀⠀ ⠀ llŷr’s hands halted midway. fresh stacks of wood burned in the hearth, and a small fawn nudged gently against the side of his knee. he rubbed its head absently, yet his attention soon returned to the woman seated several feet away. while the creek was always open to visitors and customers throughout the seasons, he wondered why she lingered near the private gates meant only for staff. the sound of her voice grated against his bones, prickling his skin with alert awareness. it filled the guest room as well, and llŷr had little desire for her presence to linger in every corner she touched.
            
            ⠀⠀⠀    ⠀⠀ ⠀  “why?” he asked, turning back to set the remaining wood beside the hearth, stacking it carefully, piece by piece. “hallow creek has nothing of the sort to offer an immortal like you.” he began to rise, cradling the fawn in his arms, biting back the impulse to tickle its ears. the animal was wary of her presence, though curious nonetheless, and that detail did not sit well with him.
            
            ⠀⠀⠀    ⠀⠀ ⠀  “you have a trail to explore. horses to choose from, ride or merely sit and feed them. all up to you. i don’t suppose there’s much to do in here. i don’t even know who allowed you in, but..” his icy grey gaze locked with hers, and the remainder of his words dissipated unspoken. llŷr would be no liar if he denied it⎯⎯he had been equally curious about her from the moment she stepped onto his ranch.

@hellslyrics      the alien tilts her head slightly,   a faint luminescent shimmer moving through her irises.  her tone is smooth,   almost teasing.    ❛  maybe i’m not trying to take anything this time.    maybe i’m just… curious.   interested in you. i’m always eager to learn something new.  ❜  

“ i wouldn’t of guessed that since you’re always wrapped up in that lab coat of yours.  it’s nice to see you like this. ”   the brunette returned the smile,  her gaze flitting around the lab as she walked into the heart of oni’s workshop   “ i appreciate the offer and i would love to,  but i feel like your invitation would be put to better use with someone else.  i’m not exactly cut out for fancy events and such,  believe me,  i’ve tried.  ”

@shieldsagent-     ❛  why,  thank you.  i do enjoy getting dressed up.   believe it or not.   it just might be my second favorite past time.  ❜  oni replied with a soft smile.    she rarely socialized being that she was always so preoccupied with work.   but this was a rare occasion.    an event that she couldn’t afford to miss.  ❛  it’s somewhat of a dinner…   would you like to be my plus one?  ❜

@VENGCENT      ❛  and?  was i worth the wait?  i knew i had to look my best for you when i learned of your… sudden arrival.  ❜

@svengalie────   ❪J.T❫ :         〞 NO.    ❨ … ❩          BUT Y’TOLD PRETTY EASILY.  THAT,   AND IT’S NOT EVERYDAY THAT BRUCE HIDES HIS COMPANY.   SO,  THAT MEANS YOU MEAN SOMETHING TO HIM.    MAYBE THAT’S WHY HE INSISTED ON GETTING DOOR INSTEAD OF ME.   〞         [ ⚰︎ ]           jason’s body is quite literally a brick wall between the entrance and the mysterious woman of the week.   he’s unimpressed,  to be quite frank.  not necessarily because of her appearance  (no,  not at all.   she looks like quite the opposite actually,   mythical almost.   but he is unimpressed because his father has had many suitors, all unfitting for his lifestyle.  so what would make this woman different?)    jason shifts,  resting his weight on the doorframe.   

@2GRAVED     ❛  was it that obvious?  ❜
