FOR: @lararutherford WHERE: St. Catherine's Hospital. WITHIN: Waiting room, vending machines.

Hospital food was complete and utter horse shit.

Odile cared little for the canteen food, which, disgustingly so, left a smell that lingered far longer than natural...every day. Thankfully, she'd only forced herself to consume small amounts of the vending machine tuck shop: everything else...she'd ordered in. The looks of hungry people in the waiting room hadn't stopped her from wolfing down what looked to be far too much food for a woman of her statue...she was comforting eating, and everyone else could fuck off.

It wasn't the hunger, or even the obscene over-eating that was getting at Odile, though. It was the inability to sleep, her eyes lingering on that door a little too long, some hours, unaware of the passing time as day turned to night. Or when the nurses had begged she go home, and she'd all but refused with a swift middle finger.

If it hadn't been for her friends, they would've kicked her out for her poor conduct. Which was usually stellar. But not when it came to Laurent: she was unmoving. A force to be reckoned with, and she would put anyone in the ground who kept her from him. Her knee bounced, phone scrolling turned into nothing as the screen blurred into one.

She'd been here that long, that she heard every squeak of a foot against cheap lino, and the cadence of a voice she could never fucking forget. Freezing in her spot, as she sat up, rod-backed.

"Oh, you've gotta be fuckin' joking--" she paused only to let the shock twist her features into one of disbelief, as she looked up to find none other than Lara-fucking-Rutherford. "Turn around, and walk in the direction you just came from, you nine-lived-freak."

Laurent lay sleeping, mere feet away...and she was walking around freely. Where the fuck was protection? Where was security. "I don't think so."

where: walking in the crowd. who: laurent; @laurentborgiin.

Making her rounds and watching people dance, Sybill had a smile on her face. It was nice to see not only all the joy but the joining of schools. She had never met someone from the states and hoped she would have a conversation with someone from Ilvermorny during the night. She wanted to pick their brains out of her natural curiosity. So many of them seemed to meld with Hogwarts so easily. It was lovely.

Although there were new faces there were also many familiar ones. Sybill hadn’t seen such happiness since the welcome back party. The difference was that alcohol wasn’t involved she thought. And all of the students were there, not just the older ones.

While enjoying the view she saw Laurent. They hadn’t spoken in some time. She walked toward him, looking forward to hearing how he was doing. “Laurent,” she waved, walking to him. “It’s been too long. How are you? Enjoying the ball I hope. What do you think of these Ilvermorny students? I’m hoping to talk to at least one of them. I have so many questions!” She rambled.

RECOVER :  for one muse to return the other’s lost belonging.

The guard hated leaving his post more than almost anything in the world. He knew he was lucky to be there at all, with no name to back him, no wealth of his own to stand on. Somehow, through the grace of god, perhaps, he had managed to work his way up the ranks and the only job he had now was protecting the royal family, with his life if necessary. So he hated leaving his post, but sometimes it was a necessity, like now as he caught a glimpse of the man to who he knew the wallet in his possession belonged. "Viscount Sidmouth!" He called, trailing after the man, "I believe this is yours, my lord. I believe you may have dropped it at the last ball but I knew not where to find you."

[sybillctrelawney]

Sybill saw Laurent edging the side of the room and was thrilled. Her friend, someone she considered a real friend, looked happy yet a little overwhelmed. She smiled as she was feeling a bit of the same. The party was a blast, people watching, seeing and feeling the happiness, but the empath was also feeling some insecurity, wanting to impress and, yes, sadness in a few directions. It was a lot to take in. But that the was usual only enhanced by the intense crowd -- and likely alcohol. But Laurent was a nice surprise.

"Out of everyone here, how have I not seen you yet? I've been standing on this wall the whole time!" she exclaimed. Sybill wished she'd seen Laurent before. The pair could have already struck up a conversation about who knew what. They were good at that. Both curious by nature, she because of her gift that she couldn't get rid of though she sometimes wish she could. And Laurent because, well, he was naturally curious to his detriment. But Sybill loved how his curiosity was in the present. It brought them together, though she wished he'd been more careful in the past and, moreso, wished he had more of a future. However, she was going to soak up as much of his future as he could offer.

"I think they came to the party at least three sheets to the wind. Who knows where they are now," Sybill chuckled. "Good to see you appear to still have a good head on your shoulders. I like that," she smiled. And at his response to her hair talking Sybill squeaked, "YOU UNDERSTAND MY HAIR! No one has understood and I don't know why!" She grabbed his shoulders, "This is why we get along so well!" She was so happy she almost didn't hear his question. She closed her eyes, took in a deep breath. "No, no drink for this Seer. I have no idea what my brain would do if alcohol got involved. A little scared of it to be honest. But ...and don't tell anyone. A piece of me wishes I could have just a sip. Just a little bit."

Laurent Borgin, first and perhaps last of his name, was not exactly someone invited to house parties. Merlin, he didn't even know if Ravenclaw held the kind of parties he'd found himself in that night. It wasn't much of a surprise that Gryffindor house had been the ones selected to host though. They seemed comfortable enough with the whirling chaos of it all, melting and falling all over as firewhiskey ate their brain and the desire to socialize took over any other drives.

That didn't mean it wasn't fun. It was very fun. He just didn't need to be in the very center of it. Laurent had removed himself from the whirling chaos of the center of the room and found a degree of solstice on the side of the room. It was fortunate, then, that he had found himself next to Sybill.

"Hello Sybill," he greeted with a nod. "They're certainly ending up two sheets to the wind faster than I thought they would. I thought they'd give it at least another hour." He smirked into his own glass, his first of the night. Too many years of those traditional pureblood parties did not prepare Laurent for this but he kept the sharper observations behind his teeth. "They do look happy," he admitted. "You look like you're enjoying this. Even with the-" Laurent mimicked the hair flip Sybill had just done. "No drink for you?" He nodded his head towards her empty hand.

closed for @dcgtown / liam & hazel, based on this.

Hazel climbed right into his lap, no hesitation as she leaned into his ear, voice low and sultry. “Do you like her better than me?” She asked, hand resting on his chest. They’d broken up almost a year ago now, but she could feel his heart under her palm, beating erratically for her anyways, the liquor from the party surging through her veins. “Is she better than me?”

misc. scenarios / scenes i have on the brain

for various ocs but mostly dove i think.

jason and dove at some underground punk show and dove is dragging him into the moshpit because they are having the time of their life and they want to feel all that energy and they want him with them for it. with him beside him it's the safest they've probably ever been when moshing because he's Tall and Big and he's keeping a close watch on them and as much as he can they've each got a hand on each other or they're pressed close to each other. they're staying as close as possible and dove is all lit up and yelling so they can be heard over the music and the crowd and they're telling him this is the best night ever.

the first time jason actually holds sparrow because sparrow seeks him out when he wanted to be picked up. he's kind of shocked but that's only after he picks him up without thinking much about it, like it's natural. sparrow pats his face and tells him thank you like jason did more than just pick him up because sparrow is already so much like dove. and when dove sees it? they've gotta take a minute to process bc they're so full of love in that moment they can't think of anything else. before he has any idea what's happening jason has both baeks holding onto him because dove comes up and hugs him nd they're just pleased as hell n sparrow is snuggled between the both of them. meanwhile jason is still kind of processing.

the day that dove accidentally revealed they were a meta / speedster to helena. and how they tried to recover and walk that back. bonus if they try talking about how it happened (they do not remember) because they'd try and use what they do remember + whatever pops into their head to come up with a rather ridiculous story behind it.

new oc ashton graves and the first time she used magic + found out about zatanna. & if she knew about it (bc idk how common knowledge it is) her being a bop fan. i think she'd think they were cool as hell too

even newer oc kit warren being the most annoying person alive /lh. basically him using his powers to annoy like. dick or. oliver queen. bc i decided that kit wakes up each day and chooses violence (making his existence everyone's, but specifically oliver's, problem). he's genuinely not that bad but he does enjoy messing around.

a grown up aeron vasilyev interacting with both their moms. (bio mom and the mom who would've raised them) that's pretty much it

evan faulkner trying to duck out at a function he's supposed to be throwing but people keep finding him. if he wasn't literally the host, nearing 30, and allegedly a people person (he doesn't know who started that rumor), he would find somewhere to hide, including under a table like he's six and hiding from his mom during a different event bc he's so bored. afterwards he tries to convince his assistant person (? it's complicated) that they shouldn't throw parties or anything like that ever again. they tell him no. he tries to quit. they tell him no.

logan toussaint and aeron and milan forcing (/lh) everyone to have a self care & family day at aeron's house. sam's doing lesson plans with a face mask on and his hair pushed back with a headband that logan bought for him specifically (it's bright green!). milan is sitting and painting noah's nails, noah has no idea what colors he chose either. milan is keeping that secret. thea, who also has a face mask, messing with aeron's hair while they ramble about whatever comes to mind. her hair is also done up in some legit french braids bc aeron? knows how for some reason.

the moment when levi faust realises all the ways their brother cares about them. like figuring out it's rory who cuts out or obscures nutrition labels or repackages food so there's no labels except for what the food is and the ingredients. or them realizing that if rory hands them that's usually in a wrapper (like candy) that he'll usually have it open already when he's passing it to them & he manages to take the wrapper before they look at it as they can actually enjoy their treat. or how rory will save their paper and put their laptop + phone on the charger and straighten things up when he finds them asleep in their homework.

also rory asking levi for help with his french homework bc he only knows so much and levi looking at him and saying that as much as it hurts them to say it, they have no idea how to rlly read in french or explain it. it's just their first language and they can speak it but they didn't learn more than that? bc all their school stuff was done in english and they only learned french at all bc that's all their dad would use around them and that's how they learned how to talk n stuff. but it was never a formal education. both of them stare at his homework confused. levi can help with very basic stuff. they hate that

closed starter for @heremergence

"i've had another unconventional idea..." he smiles, sitting himself down in front of her once their daughter had climbed out of his arms and towards her bedroom. "for missy's birthday and because i've finally got a decent contract, maybe we can take a holiday? maybe...to my hometown?"

[sybillctrelawney]

Laurent was laughing at her! Laughing! It made Sybill laugh of course. Would this predicament happen to anyone else? Particularly when dressed up so …nicely. She shook her head. “Got myself in a bit of trouble on the shoe’s first day out. Well, first and last.” She swore she would never wear again. Sybill was awkward enough and to add heels was like putting olives on pizza — no good.

“Who believes in luck, Laurent? I’m just a klutz in a nice dress.” It was a bit a backhanded compliment but Sybill took it all the same. Sure didn’t know what to do with compliments anyway. “The gum did win. The dang thing.”

The entire time she had been lifting her foot and lowering it, lifting and lowering. “You know, after a little while it’s like playing a game. Not one I want to play but still. A little game.” She sighed. I could use an unsticking charm. Why hadn’t I thought of that?” Because you’re self-conscious and not thinking correctly. She closed her eyes and poof, all gone.

“You look charming as ever, though.”

@laurentborgiin

Laurent, for all his oddities, for the way his mind flickers between ideas and concepts like light between the stars only to get pulled in by the gravity of an intellectual black hole, he never quite escaped the pureblood fascination with small buttons buttoned up all the way to his chin. It was made worse when you were trying to run with the Sacred Twenty-Eight. Laurent's costume, despite being something he considered fun, seasonal, and a masterpiece of charmwork, was buttoned to the heavens.

And so, his first thought when he saw Sybill in Hogsmede did have to do with the neckline of her dress. It was a stab of envy, fast and quick at the possibility of anything that didn't consist of tens of pureblood-approved tiny buttons. Maybe next Halloween, if he made it that far, he'd go in something tailored for a woman as his shirt instead of the madness that passed for pureblood fashion. Merlin, it was uncomfortable not being able to bend your neck.

But that was a complaint and a consideration for a different day because Sybill looked proper Ravenclaw, gown and hair dancing a jig with the stars above come to Earth. It was an incredible image, reminding Laurent of the ceiling of their common room. It was still an incredible image when she stepped in gum, but the cascade of giggles that escaped from his mouth at her predicament made clear both that the drinks he had had were catching up to him and that Sybill, regardless of her dress, still had terrible luck.

"No," he replied through his laughter, bringing up one hand to cover his mouth as if that would make it less obvious that he was laughing at her misfortune. "I really can't. That's proper shite luck, Sybill. You look lovely, but I think the gum won this one. Can you use an unsticking charm on it?"
