            …   i apologize,  i didn’t realize you’d still be here.

@-ofsongbirds }
            the sentiment is nice but i’m not really a song and dance type of woman.

@snowstylings }
            …   no,  i haven’t.   i just found out that my father took a mistress and they’re having a son.   they’ve lost faith in me to continue the bloodline so they’re passing it onto some sad young sap.

you’re right, i won’t. but answer me honestly anyway.

@snowstylings }
            i’m assuming if i say yes,  you won’t believe me.

@snowstylings }
            most people say that until they actually see the work.   just let me know if you get tired or hungry or something.  i’ll be working riiight over there.

i just wanna help out. that’s all. ( tigris sighed, taking the magnifying glass carefully. )

@snowstylings }
            [ she then walked back to her,  offering the magnifying glass ]   i really appreciate this,  snow.   seriously.

@dovecotes }
            i   ..   nevermind.   i think i’m going mad.  [ she pinched the bridge if her nose ]

hm? ( clemensia’s head tilted, her brows furrowing together. ) looking at you like /what/?

@dovecotes }
            stop looking at me like that.

@-ofsongbirds }
            i suppose  ..   hard to find joy in a place like this.  death’s probably the only saving grace we have at the end of the day  …   better to be six feet under than deal with whatever this is.
            
            /   will dooooo <3   i’ll do it either tonight or tomorrow depending on my muse !

            the hanging tree.  [  she specifies with a curt nod. ]   i still think there's beauty in tragedy. besides, it's our truth. it holds a lot of meanin' as itself and as a metaphor, i'd say. can't sing about sunshine 'n' rainbows, daisies and dreams when that's not what the world we're livin' in.
            
            /  omg my best boy i missed him sm  !!!   plssss drop when you do  <33

@-ofsongbirds }
            i suppose.   seems rather tragic to sing about a hanging though ,  no ?
            
            /   FRRRR gonna go on sejanus in a bit <3

@-ofsongbirds }
            i have to be careful with how i use it.  though the games i play may not be the same as yours,  the end result if i fail is all the same.   [ she didn’t flinch at the touch,  merely met her gaze ]

(  @traitorsblood  )
            
            course not.  [  lucy gray dips her head in acknowledgement of the brunette. she steps forth, cautiously, and reaches to hold the girl's wrist for a short moment. ]   don't let 'em take your voice when you can use it for good. i believe in good people like you, medea.

@-ofsongbirds }
            [  dark brows furrowed a little at her words ]   well  ..  for the sake of your peers,  i hope that these games will be the last.   you didn’t hear it from me though. 

@snowstylings }
            are  ..  you sure ?   [ medea was no fool,  she could sense tigris’s change in disposition ]   you know,  you can be honest with me.   i won’t tell.

ah! yes, he did just return. ..it’s been a bit rough without him here, but now that he’s back, i’m sure everything will be fine. ( tigris said quietly, looking down. )

@snowstylings }
            [ medea dipped her head before taking a step back towards the exit ]   so  ..  how have you been ?  i hear coriolanus returned from his deployment ?

hm? no catch. i simply.. wanted to be nice.

@dovecotes }
            ..   / you /  got something for me ?   what’s the catch ?
