VADUVA, MAVIS.

“yes, of course the movie.” mavis said with a awkward giggle, “how old do you think i am?”

          “Well  like  witches  exist,   so  I  imagine  that  like  people  who  are  immoral  are  too.   And  plus  I  never,   ever  guess  a  lady’s  age.”

Nick pulled a face, like he’d eaten something sour. Tilting his head to inspect the scene again, he replied: “Nah. I feel like if you can’t tell by now, you’re on your own kid. You always have been,” he said in a sing-song. “Taylor Swift, always right.”

          “That’s  true.   She  does  speak  words  of  wisdom.   Or  well  sings  them.   Besides,   this  is  entertaining  for  everyone.”   Max  let  out  a  loud  laugh  and  grinned.   “Are  you  a  big  fan  of  Taylor  then?”   Max  didn’t  like  admitting  that  he  did  like  Taylor,   but  well.   “Anyways,   people  watching  is  always  fun,   right?”

        ❛ the  multiverse ?  on no no ,  i  didn't  mean  to  propose  anything  quite  so  complicated .  this  one  is  enough  on  it's  own ! ❜  the  blonde  noted ,  chuckling  at  her  own  comment .  ❛ i  see …  in  that  case ,  what  other  versions  of  yourself  do  you  reckon  exist  in  another  universe ?  have  you  thought  about  those ? ❜

          “I  like  to  think  that  there  are  multiple  places  where  I  exist?   Absolutely  terrifying.”   He  let  out  a  laugh.   Max  did  like  to  think  there  was  a  universe  that  he  never  lit  the  candle  or  had  after  you  know  he’d  already  slept  with  someone.   “I  like  to  think  there’s  a  universe  where  I  haven’t  made  so  many  dumb  mistakes.”

Her eyebrows furrowed a little in concern as he did the exact opposite of what she said. “Max — I had no idea people were after you,” she said curiously. “What kind of trouble have you gotten into?” Serena couldn’t help the slightly stern tone in her voice.

          Max  shook  his  head.   He  didn’t  need  to  drag  someone  else  into  his  problems.   “It’s...   complicated.   I  did  something  kind  of  stupid  because  I  didn’t  think  witches  were  real.   Which  I  guess  is  probably  dumb  on  my  part.   But  really?   Curses  aren’t  real.   Anyways.   There  was  a  candle  and  I  lit  it  and  these  witches  were  released.   No  idea  where  they  are  or  how  to  get  rid  of  them.”

BEAUMONT, MARIE.

song rec: macarthur park - donna summer

❛ a drink and a trip to the dance floor do sound fun, ❜ marie nodded, giving him the once over. he seemed a little awestruck amid all the excitement. his eyes wandering to and fro while hesitation or the absence of something held him glued to the bar height table. she didn’t know what was the matter really, they had just met earlier that night. mutual friends and what not. ❛ yes, of course. whatever you want. ❜ she reassured, patting his hand gently before leaving to the bar.

she was gone for a few minutes, returning with his jack and coke and a solar flare for herself. ❛ here you go. ❜ she set the drink in front of him, smile soft. her eyes traveling to the dance floor briefly. ❛ the music is really good, ❜ marie began looking over at him. ❛ do you want to dance after we finish our drinks? might do you some good to move a little … no rush on finishing your drink though … we can just talk too? ❜ marie asked amid stirring her drink.

          “I  have  to  admit  that  I’m  not  that  big  of  a  drinker.”   He  laughed.   “But  I  don’t  know.   I  need  something  fun  tonight.”   So  he  felt  a  little  guilty  at  the  idea  that  he  was  having  fun  when  there  were  things  to  do  to  resolve  the  issues  that  he’d  created.   Max  wasn’t  going  to  solve  them  in  one  night  though.   So  fun  was  fun.   And  this  was  fun.   “Okay.   Well,   I  guess.”   Max  followed  her,   not  entirely  sure  what  he  was  doing  here.   It  felt  like  he  was  just  generally  struggling  these  days  and  honestly,   he  shouldn’t  feel  so  guilty  for  having  a  bit  of  fun. 

          Max  waited  for  her  to  return  and  bit  on  his  lip  as  she  returned  with  his  drink.   “Yeah,   this  is  really  cool  music!”   he  exclaimed.   “Oh,   yeah.   I  have  the  best  dance  moves.”   He  didn’t,   but  he  liked  to  pretend  that  he  did.   “After  drinks.   Good  idea.”   Max  smiled  at  her.   “What  do  you  want   to  talk  about?”   he  asked,   moving  his  gaze  towards  her  rather  than  on  the  dance  floor.

ROGERS, SHAGGY.

“Yeah like carnival games! There’s some down at the pier but it’s just cooler when it’s at a festival. I can’t describe the vibes of a festival. Oh, no. I’ve had regular nachos.”

          “Huh.   I’ve  never  really  been  that  good  with  those  sorts  of  games.”   Max  shrugged.   “But  I  guess I  could  go  for  some  games  and  good  food.   Well,   you  should  try  them.   They’re  really  good.”

❛ I THINK IT’S TIME FOR ANOTHER DRINK, ❜ the edges of marie’s ruby woo pouts embraced near empty glass as she drank the last of la fée verte. hips swinging in effortless tempo with irresistible melody echoing throughout.

new groove was marie’s favorite weekly event to attend when back in elias. the pours were generous, the performers beyond incredible and there was no better dj-ing drag queen than the empress herself.

everything, absolutely everything marie loved was in this one place — art, fashion and music you could dance to.

her gaze wanders towards the bar, assessment of crowd to bartender ratio brief before her attention returned to present company. ❛ what would you like? my treat, my treat! ❜

         Max  needed  to  let  lose  and  have  a  bit  of  fun.   These  days  his  life  felt  really  like  he  had  to  prioritize  things  other  than  fun.   Being  an  adult  who  set  of  a  curse  was  the  worst  thing.   He  hated  being  responsible  and  honestly,   going  to  a  bar  was  a  lot  more  fun  than  sitting  around  reading  about  ancient  curses.   Not  that  he  was  super  helpful  when  it  came  to  that  either.

         Drag  events  were  his  favorite  to  attend  because  he  liked  seeing  all  the  people  dressed  in  really  cool  fashion  and  having  fun.   “Is  it?”   he  asked,   looking  around  at  all  the  people  dancing  and  having  fun,   mesmerized.   He  kind  of  wished  that  someone  would  ask  him  to  dance.  

         He  looked  up  when  she  said  my  treat,   clearly  feeling  bad  that  he  wasn’t  really  paying  attention  to  her  when  there  were  so  many  distractions.   “Um...   Jack  and  coke?”   Max  had  never  been  a  big  drinker,   so  he  didn’t  know  what  to  try.   “If  that’s  okay.”

serena pursed her lips, her eyes flickering from the side then back to her companion. “ don’t look now, but … they’re looking at you. ”

          Max  looked  around,   trying  to  spot  where  the  person  was  looking  at  him.   “Who’s  looking  at  me?”   he  didn’t  see  anyone.   “You  can’t  say  that  to  me  when  there  are  people  after  me.”

nick shook his head in mock solemnity, before leaning over to whisper to the nearest person. “ oh, for the love of michael mouse, ” he exclaimed in a monotone, sipping at his drink. “ do you think they know ? ” 

          Max  turned  to  look  where  the  person  was  pointing.   “I  don’t  think  they  know.”   He  covered  his  hand  over  his  mouth,   shaking  his  head.   “I  think  someone  should  tell  them.   Seems  only  right.”

BAYKAM, DAPHNE.

She tucked her phone away into her bag as she walked before she stopped someone. “You wouldn’t happen to have any idea where the closest coffee shop is would you? I need a macchiato and a place to charge my phone.” 

          “What  kind  of  phone  do  you  have?”   he  asked.   “I  have  a  phone  bank  for  an  iPhone,   but  it  doesn’t  have  a  thing  for  an  Android.   And  there’s  a  coffee  shop  a  few  blocks  away.”

DIMITRIOU, MEG.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥

Was this boy hero material? Meg didn’t put much effort into hiding how she looked him up and down, analysing him. Not many could match up to Hercules, but she was going to give the boy credit for trying. “Candles?” she smirked. “Don’t tell me your whole evil thing started because you lit a bunch of bad candles.” She’d heard of cursed necklaces and golden fleeces, but cursed candles were a whole other thing. “Solid plan. Look at you go. At this point, leave everyone alone in the romantic sense. You have enough shit going on in your life without trying to be in love.” At the mention of him being dead being a solution, she just arched an eyebrow. “Yeah. Well…” Meg picked up her coffee cup and tilted it up, drinking the last of it before setting it back on the table. “You want a final piece of advice? Flow to where the powerful magical people are. Try to get one of the good ones so you know you won’t be ripped off.”

          Curses,  witches,  and  evil  villains  was  something  that  Max  only  recently  felt  like  he  had  started  to  learn  about.   He  was  trying  to  learn  more,   but  kind  of  at  a  standstill  when  finding  out  information  on  what  to  do  about  his  situation.   Looking  into  the  history  was  for  sure  a  good  place  to  start.   “Yeah,   kind  of.   I  didn’t  think  curses  were  real  so  I  lit  a  candle  and  turns  out  witches  are  real.   Just  in  case  that  ever  happens  to  you.”   He  shrugged.   “Not  everything  is  about  romance.   Not  everything  is  about  love,   you  know.   Sometimes  you  just  gotta  solve  the  problem  and  not  worry  about  all  of  that.   Allison  is  cool  and  all,   I  just  messed  up  and  we  should  be  focusing  on  fixing  that.   Plus,   I’ve  got  to  protect  my  sister.”   He  was  mostly  concerned  with  that.   “Wait,   how  do  you  know  who  the  good,   powerful   magic  people  are?   I  feel  like  there  are  so  many  people  here.   Do  you  have  suggestions?”

REYES, ROXAS.

          ❛ I FEEL LIKE I’M MISSING SOMETHING , ❜  roxas  mused ,  popping  a  piece  of  popcorn  in  his  mouth .  ❛ aren't  those  two  supposed  to  hate  each  other ?  also ,  i  thought  the  guy  had  a  crush  on  a  different  girl . ❜

          “You’ve  never  had  a  crush  on  two  people  at  once?”   Max  blinked  and  looked  at  the  person  to  his  side.   “It’s  beautiful.   Like  two  people  who  aren’t  supposed  to  fall  in  love  do.   I  think  that’s  the  point  of  it  all.   Doomed  love.   I  don’t  know  anything,   but  I  did  see  the  movie  with  Claire  Danes.”

          ❛ THIS MAY SOUND LIKE  a  ridiculous  question ,  but …  do  you  believe  in  the  butterfly  effect ? ❜

          “No,   I  don’t  think  I  do.   To  be  honest,   the  butterfly  effect  kind  of  confuses  me.   I  get  it,   but  I  think  I  like  the  multiverse  idea  better.   The  butterfly  effect  seems  very  one  timeline-centric.”

ROGERS, SHAGGY.

“For food! For the atmosphere! Mainly for the food. Dude, I don’t know you like that but I like food that is edible…or it defeats the point of food?”

          “Oh,   right.   Well  are  there  games?   I  don’t  know  that  I’ve  been  to  a  festival  before.   Not  one  like  this  before.   Uh,   yeah,   but  have  you  ever  had  Asian  nachos?”

BINX, THACKERY. 

~ ☆ ~

a soft laugh left him at max’s protest. “my apologies - i’m sure you read plenty. perhaps i’ll ask your recommendation for next week’s book club.” he hummed, half-teasing. he wasn’t really about to judge max’s reading habits - or lack thereof - but the boy’s response was entertaining nonetheless.

thackery’s countenance softened slightly, though, as max admitted that he was indeed here for research purposes. “yes, of course. history books are an excellent place to start.” he nodded. “i’ve thumbed through my fair share of volumes since coming to elias myself, so i’m sure i can pull a few relevant selections from the shelf for you, if you’d like.” he offered, gesturing for max to follow him as he lead the way towards the history books in question. 

          Honestly,   Thackery  was  the  only  reason  that  Max   believed  all  this  stuff  about  witches  and  curses.   He  was  sure  there  was  an  explanation  for  a  lot  of  the  strangeness  about  Elias  that  wasn’t  magic.   Of  course,   he  believed  it  now.   Especially  after  everything  he  did  to  unleash  a  curse.   “Yeah,   but  I  don’t  think  you’d  enjoy  it.”   Max  read.   Of  course  he  did.   The  books  he  enjoyed  weren’t  books  that  most  people  probably  enjoyed.   “The  other  day  I  read  a  book  about  a  band.   Like  a  fictional  band.   It  was  a  romance.”   He  didn’t  really  like  talking  about  books. 

          He  had  to  admit  that  his  research  skills  were  subpar,   but  he  didn’t  want  people  to  think  he  wasn’t  pulling  his  weight.   Perhaps  some  people  really  needed  to  be  informed  about  the  sisters.   “Should  I  start  with  research  on  witches  or  curses  or  maybe...   I  don’t  even  know.”   He  followed  Thackery  towards  the  history  books.   “Curses  probably  won’t  be  my  expertise  though.”
