Luna was good under pressure, but not because she was good under pressure. It was more that she didn’t really perceive pressure… at all. It was just not a problem. She stayed calm in moments of crisis because panicking… well, it wasn’t going to do anything, anyway? So she just… didn’t blink. She rolled with the punches, as they came. She was calm, and cool, and decidedly Luna at all times. Except this one. Swallowing hard, she nodded a little as she moved to his bag, hands shaking as she pulled out the potions he needed. “H-here. I can…” Unstoppering the dittany, she started applying it gingerly, trying to hide how badly her hands were shaking from him. Luna had never been scared like this… and she had been in some pretty awful scenarios. So she didn’t really understand.

“Oh, God, you’re bleeding. You’re bleeding a lot.” (Luna @ Charlie Weasley)

"Don't you worry, blondie. I've had much worse." He says with a laugh, holding the piece of fabric along the slashes on his arm. "Will you grab the potions out of my bag? There's dittany and blood replenishing potions."

Elijah: Yesterday, I overheard Niklaus asking “Are you sure this is a good idea?” and Kol replying “Trust me,” and I have never moved from one room to another so quickly in my life.

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES (2009 - 2017) GRADUATION

[ofblackskies]

A shiver rolled down Caroline’s spine, but she didn’t bother trying to hide it. She did have iron self control… but she held no delusions in that regard. Caroline knew that she would let that self control crumble of her own volition soon enough. “Oh, you think so?” She teased, wetting her lips. “Well… we did establish you’re old. Maybe that means you know a thing or two about deserting self control.”

@ofblackskies

“And so modest, as well!” Klaus commented with a smirk, tucking a wayward curl behind her ear and dipping his head to press a kiss to the newly bared skin. “One of these days, little love,” the Original began, lips brushing against the shell of her ear, “That iron-self-control of yours will desert you. I can’t wait to see how sweet that surrender will taste on my tongue when it does.”

[ofblackskies]

“Oh insanity.” Josie’s lips twitched a little bit in amusement. “Okay. So I’m getting the grand tour today, then? Or just a short one to show off some of the best pastries?” Either way, she was up for it so long as it had periodic coffees throughout the day.

@ofblackskies

“I knew there was a reason I liked you!” Hope quipped, offering her arm to the younger girl to take as they headed back inside. “Seriously though, there’s always coffee around here. Apparently vampires aren’t really…morning people. Crazy, right?”

Luna’s cheeks turned a pretty pink. She knew it could be rude, but she often found her mind slipping into its own little world. For whatever it was worth, she truly did enjoy his company… she just… got easily distracted. Especially when the wellbeing of a creature was in question. “Oh! I would love to.” She brightened for him, moving close and standing on her toes to kiss his cheek. “Put me to work.” Luna added firmly.

he knows she's not intentionally ignoring him, it's just a part of how her brain works. she's focused on a tiny slug on a rock and that's all she can focus on. he's grown used to her, but still fights the exasperation he feels from time to time. "i was trying to invite you to come help with the newest batch of eggs." he says with a soft laugh. "that slug's awful lucky you were around though."

“I don’t know. I still like a good swing set.” Nick replied with ease, shrugging his shoulders for a moment before shaking his head. He really needed to stop antagonizing her. For the moment, at least. “Okay. Let’s go back to that, then. I’m tolerable. I can take tolerable.” He added with a crooked grin. “What would make me more tolerable to you?”

@ofblackskies

“Yes.” Ziggy immediately replied, tone flat. “Which is why most boys stop doing it to get girls’ attention around the same time they lose interest in the playground equipment,” the redhead continued blandly, hitching her bag higher up on her shoulder.

“Time-honored tradition or not, making the person you like want to strangle you does not make the heart grow fonder,” Christine informed him tartly. “But it sure as hell makes their patience shorter. You’re lucky I found you tolerable to start with, Goode, or you’d have already blown your chance to convince me.”

She swallowed hard, and her lips parted just slightly as he toyed with her hair. If Autumn was trying to keep her eyes off of him, it wasn't going to work and she knew it. She tried to speak, to make a witty retort about not needing any more temptation, thank you very much... and the words fell away before they could even come out.

"The ring still..." She trailed off, looking up at him as if the words were a terrible betrayal. "Kurt... I was always going to come back, you know? That was the plan. I was going to finish school, and come home again... to you... but then you got married. So... there was no point in visiting. Because... what was I going to do? Break up a marriage?" Otter shook her head. "That would have been awful of me. Still would be." She added the last bit quieter. Like she was trying to convince herself more than him.

@ofblackskies

Was it awful of him to be flirting with another woman without sparing a thought for his wife? Probably, though Kurt couldn’t find it in himself to care. Autumn was his first love. The one that had been to hell and back with him. She’d been the one beside him in his darkest days, and if he was being honest Kurt had never loved anyone else the way he did her. Least of all his wife; he didn’t even particularly like her most of the time. Their marriage had been a sham he’d been backed into from the beginning. The only woman he’d ever wanted had been Otter. Was still Otter, and if fate had sent her back to him? The last thing that was going to stand in his way was something as trivial as his wife.

“On the contrary,” he breathed as he reached out to toy with a lock of hair. “I think you could have used a bit more temptation, Otterpop. Maybe then you’d have been wearing the ring still sitting in my sock drawer instead of leaving me town. But don’t worry. I don’t intend to make the same mistake twice.”

bellatrix black said : ❝ you're the most insufferable person i have ever met. ❞ / @pcraspcra

Well she wasn't wrong exactly. Lily Evans knew that she could be absolutely obstinant when she wanted to. Hell, even when she didn't want to. She had been so excited to find out that she was a witch that she had to learn absolutely everything she could! After all, you only wake up from a dream like this once... and then it's gone forever. So she absorbed everything, and... yeah, maybe that made her a little insufferable. Especially when someone was trying to tell her that she was wrong about something she knew damn well she was right about. "Maybe, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong. It just means that you're too pigheaded to admit when you are." She informed the far scarier girl with her head held high. If she was going to get hexed, she might as well be right first.

[ofblackskies]

Sirius shrugged a shoulder and leaned back in his chair. "I mean... I gave up when I got thrown into Azkaban." He admitted. "Not fully? But... I stopped trying to prove that I didn't deserve to be there, and I started focusing on breaking out. Maybe... I should have been proving my innocence instead of making myself an undesirable by way of jailbreak." Sirius swallowed hard. "Maybe things would be easier right now if I had... I wouldn't have to be on the run." And he wouldn't have let down James, either.

there was a pause, watching her cousin and letting her dark eyes flick along his face. she set her cup down and she tipped her head to the side. "is that you?" she asked, arching a brow over at her cousin and chewing on the inside of her cheek, "what do you mean you gave up? you can't just say that and expect me to know what you're talking about."

[ofblackskies]

Nick may not have been the best of guys, but he was a good guy nonetheless, which made it very very easy to stay when Ziggy had asked him to. In fact... he hadn't even considered not being right there beside her when she awoke. Even if he had woken up once while she had been resting... or maybe a couple of times. Three, tops.

When she roused, he felt her shift against him and it shook him into awakeness in turn. "There's water on the table." He mumbled, trying to pull himself from his last bout of sleep.

@ofblackskies {Nick gets a plotted starter from Ziggy.}

Awareness crept in gradually for the reluctant redhead. At some point during the night she’d managed to wriggle out of most of her clothing, but that wasn’t unusual. What was unusual was the lack of Major Tom sleeping by her feet and the masculine scent lingering on the pillowcase beneath her cheek, but Ziggy felt oddly calm despite the lack of familiar surroundings.

Nick had clearly taken her home to his place, if the warmth pressed against her back and the face tucked into the crook of her neck was any indication. And Ziggy found she didn’t mind that idea in the slightest, despite the hand had crept beneath the fabric of her tank top to rest below her breasts and the leg thrown over both of hers, because she had asked him to stay and he had.
