He didn't know why Eric was so adamant about their birthday party. They always spent it together or with their parents, but it was a day like any other, and neither made a big deal of it. This year, however, Eric insisted on inviting a few friends, spending way too much time choosing between a cruise and rooftop drinks. Suspicious and slightly out of character even for him, but Zach decided he would humor him and suggested choosing the latter. Being stuck on a boat with people and booze for a couple hours sounded like his least favorite birthday party idea. A rooftop bar at least provided a nice view and would be easier to sneak out if necessary.

Zach had more than two weeks to text Lian and invite him, or ask him in person when they were playing his game or when he came to Lian's workplace to grab some coffee. It was almost their birthday when Zach finally mustered enough courage to ask him if he wanted to come. Not because he was hoping he had given the other enough time to make other plans and he would be busy and simply say no, though. It was more likely that he was naively waiting for his brother to change his mind.

xander had learned his very first lesson at cambridge university: he greatly overestimated his tolerance for liquor. he'd had a measly cocktail and one beer at some welcome party. it wasn't his scene at all, and all he could think about as the shitty music nearly burst his ear drums was that he wanted to go back to his dorm and watch scary movies with his roommate who was so handsome it was maddening. so that was what the redhead did. he staggered his way back to his dorm hall and somehow managed to make it up the stairs. xander struggled with his key in the door but finally came out triumphant. he sloppily pushed his way into his shared room. there, sprawled out on his bed, was the statuesque alfie with not a stitch of clothing on, hand wrapped around his cock. xander swallowed hard, his face turning a bright red shade. he could feel his own cock stirring in his jean shorts. "uhh, hi, alfie," the redhead hiccuped. his hands dropped down to cover the tent in his shorts. he should've known to tear his eyes away, that it was rude to stare... but his inhibitions were far and few between. "d'ya want me to, uh, give you a second?" xander questioned. "don't stop on my account. we all gotta do it sometime." / @kitbogart

stepping out of his cabin, he spotted the small package left at his door. opening it slowly, he looked at the bath bombs and salts, having never used any of this before - it was something that he was going to give a try. though what really brought his attention was the "free bloodlust" ale looked around for a moment with a smirk on his lips. "what the fuck does this mean?" putting the other stuff away, the son of ares wasted no time in heading over to luci's cabin. knocking with a bit too much force. standing there, tapping his feet as he waited, he looked back down at this card and shook his head. "this little shit." god how he loved it, remembering then that moment they had out in the feast, the first time he found out that he was able to fuck around with others emotions, their anger. "open the fuck up!" he yelled, knocking even harder this time.

Seline narrows her eyes viciously, a look that is somewhat off balanced by the rainbow war paint covering her face, and her popsicle-patterned overalls. "I swear, Marcel, if you mess this up for us, you'll be the Mangled Marcel instead of the Marvellous One." She stomps her foot for an added flourish. If there was one thing Seline took seriously, it was competition, and she was determined to beat the ice bears... whatever they were called.

Suspicion thickened the air in Hollow Cove and not a soul seemed immune from distrust. With the soldiers gone, hope for answers vanished and left behind whispered doubts and accusatory stares. Every step Felix took around the town, he could overhear disheartened conversations. He could feel the lost hope surrounding people's words. Still not accustomed to his heightened senses, Felix was uncertain if he noticed the shift in atmosphere simply because of his newfound talents. Or if the loss of hope was truly that devastating. Because, unlike them, he had nobody to look for. He had nobody looking for him. Only a gnawing reminder of his brother existing somewhere in the world, technically now an enemy.

Accusations flew like wildfire, spreading out to almost every supernatural in the town. And when Bella found herself in the firing line, Felix's intense quietness gave way to a passionate defense. He clashed with council members, insisting on Bella's innocence in a disagreement that turned sour quickly. Another thing he wasn't used to was the sudden temper that could fly out from him with no warning. He returned to the Belcourt cabin once he managed to tear away from the argument, eager to warn Nadia of potential consequences. But, as he lingered by the door, he caught snippets of Bella's conversation with her brother. The defeat in her voice palpable as they discussed their missed opportunity to learn more about their sister.

Sebastian's departure from the cabin caused Felix to perk up, acting as if he had only just arrived and he passed around the wolf. "Is your mom here?" though his confidence faltered for a moment when Bella's gaze lifted to him. He would always notice the subtle green in her eyes, a faint detail that never failed to strike him. Another thing he wondered. Did everybody notice it or was it just him? And did he notice it because of his new senses or...? Clearing his throat, Felix waved a hand to the door. "I er… I had a bit of a run-in with Rineike and Carina." he admitted, his voice low. "Nothing crazy but it was about you." Felix nodded toward her and his hands slunk into his pockets. "Said something about giving the..." he added a lighthearted whistle, as if the word "soldiers" were a dirty word. "Food and water." slowly, a grin managed to form over his lips, curling with a slight sarcasm. "Did you? Because I almost got my head ripped off by a viking defending you."

It was starting to feel like the tides were changing in a positive direction. Hell, he'd never been the optimist, but even he was feeling hope rising. That's the thing about things that rise, though...they have to fall.

He heard Nova's voice then another's, and it took him a bit longer to place that one. As he dared to look over, he didn't need to guess. He was jolted back through time--of a different walk, of a different betrayal--and the pressure in his chest threatened to suffocate him.

"That doesn't look like nothing," he interrupted, looking directly at her. Needing an answer and unsure he wanted one. Nothing will happen...what a load of complete bullshit. And he fell for it, again.

Teyo frowned slightly, but otherwise didn't react. Not yet. "Can I ask what motivated this?" Was it the old grudge or something new? He was far more curious than was wise to be.
