Margaret had yet to pull herself away entirely from HCP Holdings. The family company clung to her like cigarette smoke. She desperately wanted to walk away from it, but it never fully left her. So, in the meantime, she was instructing local dance classes after hours. Taylor was at her horseback riding lessons and was going home with a friend for the weekend and Margaret was teaching at the studio. She had texted Nate that she'd be home late, but never expected him to wait up for her. Tonight, she was teaching a group of adults. It was a beginners class. She hadn't even heard the door open as the class was wrapping up. Instead, she had been focused on teaching one of the newer members of the class. Margaret stood with her, practicing the steps as if they were second nature, a grin touching ear to ear.

"You ever feel like you're putting all this energy into something, just to stay afloat?" Connor started, sitting across from Levi at the local pub. "Like I'm tryin' to go along with the plan, but sometimes I'm not sure if I'm being true to myself in that process." The man shook his head, as he kept what he was truly talking about vague. Connor had only told Noah about his relationship with Fatma, but knew that spilling it around the rest of town was not in the cards. Yet, it weighed heavily on him.

"I appreciate you being able to meet with me on short notice, I know Margaret's schedule was full today," Kennedy stated as she sat down across from him, "I am super excited to be able to work with you and the rest of HCP Holdings. I'm sure you've heard I just moved back to Kismet Harbor and it's exciting that I am just jumping right in with my first event." She smiled at Nate, "Did you want a coffee or tea? I can order it, my treat," she offered to him.

"Levi, damn," Wesley chuckled, looking up as someone walked up to the bar, "I was beginning to think you weren't going to make it." He joked with the other, "we haven't seen each other in months and you show up late," he was shaking his head, as if he were severely disappointed in the other. "Kidding," he laughed once more, tapping the seat next to him, "sit down, I'll buy you a drink. It's been a hell of a long time since we got to catch up."

In hopes to get his daughter into new activities, Beyza had told him about Equestrian Estates and got her excited about taking horseback riding lessons. Seyda was with the owner of the facilities on one of their horses and Emre stood off to the side. He was watching his daughter when a shadow caught his attention, "Oh, sorry," he hadn't noticed someone walking through with their horse back to the barn. "That's a beautiful horse, what, uh, breed? Horses have breeds right?" Emre chuckled with his lack of knowledge in the horse industry.

“Levi!” Chester is on his own again, having wandered off from the safety of friends to pursue singular things like more alcohol and anyone looking for a good time on Grindr. Anything, really, to have a good time, even if such a thing were forced. They’re pretty sure they can see their co-worker and best pal somewhere amongst everyone else, waving obnoxiously as they weave through people - as if everyone else isn’t doing the same to somebody else. Upon arriving in front of his friend, he wastes little time in giving them a hug and a beaming smile, followed by the all important words; “Wanna halve a new pill? I think you’ll love it,”

While his wife was off with her friends and the kid's with his parents, Ethan figured it were the perfect opportunity to see someone he hadn't seen in some time. Growing up in Kismet Harbor together, it had been difficult not to become friends with Levi, even after the other became some big company owner and Ethan was just an emergency room nurse. "Levi, hey, my man," he grinned as he spotted him, "it's been a hell of a long time."

Gabi once more adjusts the hair in her hair tie. She's not nervous - not really, not in the way that makes her gut twist and makes it hard to breathe. What she's feeling is more the kind of heavy weight that comes with responsibility; with knowing that you can't afford to fail. It's hard... and yes, it's scary... but more than anything else, she's determined to succeed.

And she has Levi by her side. That's what gives her strength more than anything else. It must be the hardest for him, she knows - she misses Falco every day so much it hurts, but she knows they'll reunite soon, and for Levi, who has to deal with the faces of old ghosts every day... well, she can't imagine how it feels.

"You don't look half-bad, old man! Though, not nearly as much as me." she makes fun of him with a glint in her eye and a grin on her face. It's second nature to her at this point, a teasing born from fondness she never would've expected to feel about an 'Island Devil' back in the past. But after a moment, her expression grows into a serious one - with a level of focus that seems far too great for a girl her age.

"What have you told them so far? ...Do you think they'll believe you?"

blood, sender cleans blood off of receiver. Ssnt by @luposcainus

|| 🐍 HE DIDN'T NEED HELP!!! No one asked him what HE wanted! It wasn't his first time, being covered in blood. Sometimes it belonged to him, others, it belonged to the MONSTER he was battling. This was a once in awhile situation. The beast that came for the young girl, was Hideous, and Vile, and it meant to devour her. She held something within her that, Satan wanted destroyed. But her pussy bitch of a father made Levi's Extraction of the young one, harder then it needed to be. And if anyone was to blame, for her death, it was sure as fuck NOT LEVI'S. He had told the male, over and over, that the Demon was coming for the girl, and that he was going to keep them both safe. All the Adult had to do, was stay still and keep his daughter calm.

He knew the child would cry, hell he knew she would try to run. But when the Monstrousity showed up, it wasn't the child who made a run for it, IT WAS THE FATHER!! The piece of shit, left his child alone, while he decided to run and save his own ass. Causing the Beast to spot the girl immediately. And before Levi could even make it to the little one's aid, the massive jaws of the nightmare had unclenched and sunk it's fangs into her. He had no choice but to kill the Monster, while it devoured the child. He wouldn't have been covered in this amount of blood if it wasn't for, his slaughtering of the Idiot Father.

Levi may be an asshole, but he is very protective and soft when it comes to kids. And this piece of shit, didn't care enough to put his own life in danger, to protect his own child. And to LEVIATHAN that meant a painful death. Scars from the demon's claws and the male human's ignorance branded his arms chest. While Blood was splashed over 80% of his body. He had been instructed to never harm a human no matter what, but the father was just as much a monster as the creature that devoured his daughter. Levi could only stand in the middle of the abandoned house, covered in blood. His chest heaving, seeking out relief froom the burning that raged in his chest. Dark angry eyes raising as he heard the door creak open.

"Levi, my man," Abraham grinned as he walked up to the man he had known for practically his entire life. There were perks to growing up and remaining in his hometown outside of college. One of those perks was the maintaining of long-term friendships. "It's been way too long," he shook his head with the thought. "taking over the family business has been keeping my time a lot more than I thought it would." Abraham admitted to Levi as he settled into the seat next to him at the bar. "I take back all the times I bitched about my dad working late, I get why he had to."

"That's commitment," he chuckled with his own words as the other man came to realize just how long he had been in Kismet Harbor. "I'm liking it more than I expected. The pace is slower but the people are good." And there was the unexpected romance that he was finding himself in with Amerie. "It's got a rhythm, but it's just taken me some time to slow down and find it." And as he did, Jason was enjoying Kismet Harbor more and more. "I have to say, it's still a little weird getting used to people knowing everyone's business before the first cup of coffee. Word sure does travel fast around here." He'd experienced it a handful of times over the last year, listening in on conversations. @nathanielxlevy

"That it is." Nate agreed before nodding again. "Yeah. I've been here about..." He took a moment to think just how long it had been. "Sixteen years now. Jesus." He chuckled a little bit as he realized it had really been that long now. "Sometimes it feels like longer, but also not that long, you know?" He chuckled as he talked to his colleague. He hadn't been able to talk to him like this yet so it was nice to do so. "How are you liking it so far?" @jasonxamato

"They're finally asleep," Margaret spoke softly, looking down at the young baby she held in her arms. "I miss these moments." Taylor was long grown and it was rare that she got to hold her daughter while she fell asleep. "I was going to wait until after your wedding to tell, dad." She told Julian, "About leaving." She didn't want to bring a negative light going into the celebration that was upcoming. "But by the end of the year, I want to be teaching again. Dance, that is." It was her true passion at the end of the day. It had taken her far too long to admit to herself that she wasn't happy following in the footsteps she thought she had to follow in.

tomorrow. phoenix can work with that if it means the worry doesn't get to feast on her every thought today. “ thank you, ” relief has smile warming lips, dark browns flickering over to the group readying themselves to set off. prays they find something — lord, anything — that is strong enough to ward off the dread that has begun gnawing at the frail hopes of the survivors. “ they'll bring something back, ” assures her friend, loosening grip on carolina's wrist now that wishes have been met, “ they will ! and if they don't ... well, i'll join you tomorrow and we won't rest until we bring home a win, yeah ? ”

The indoor rock climbing gym was bustling. When Wesley agreed to give indoor rock climbing a try, he hadn't expected it to be so busy. Though, he should have taken into account that it was still summer break. Wesley had signed his waivers and was given a harness to get started. He started walking toward the daunting walls with colorful holds when he spotted Levi, already in a harness himself. "I have said I've never done this before, right?" The man joked in apprehension.

[margaretxhawthornelevy]

"Yeah, the small town charm comes from the people that make it feel like home too." That much had been clear to her in the years that Margaret had been living in Kismet Harbor. Her smile softened as she listened to him, "It's important to set boundaries," she told him, "you've got to take care of yourself, too and your family." She knew that it was likely that Tomás wanted to save everyone but it wasn't possible. "You can't pour from an empty cup, after all." @tomasxcooper

END.

He smiled, looking at Margaret for a moment. "I try my best," but he did know he felt it in his heart; he wanted to do this from a young age. That he knew he wanted to care for kids and have a large family. Maybe it came from the fact that he was adopted himself, maybe it was just in his soul to do what he had no idea of. "Right? I love that it's still like a small town place, not a chain like most places have all over town. He was glad that none of the chain places had taken over Kismet. He smiled at Margaret, "I mean, I may slow down a bit, but we always have an open door, but I may say no, emergencies right now." so no middle of the night calls, just ones when he have time to get ready for them if no one else was ready for them or had the space. @margaretxhawthornelevy

Location: The Danse Macabre, after closing.

The doors were shut yet, the staff still inside, dancers getting changed and cleaners simply tidying with an easy wave of the hand and a quiet word. The sight of it made the hairs on the back of their neck prickle slightly, knowing how odd it was to be a witch and yet manually unloading the dishwasher and refilling empty spirit bottles without a little magic touch. "Here," Chester twists open a bottle and slides it over to Levi for a little post shift drink, putting his hands flat on the bar-top and jumping up to use the space as a seat. He uses his teeth to open his own, the smell of tequila infused beer permeating the air for a few moments. "To another shift survived. Remind me to try and talk Suresh into banning stag parties, macho guys are easy on the eyes but fuck are they boring,"
