For Curume @deaddoveadventures : can't send the icon but I'll let him play the bad guy and kill your muse if you want to

Send 🚷 to kill my muse

@deaddoveadventures

He'd let his guard down once the familiar walls of Springvale had appeared between the trees, and that had been his downfall.

'Well,' Michael thought as he watched the knife be withdrawn from his chest. 'At least this will be quick.' The front of his jerkin began to darken along its new tear as something rose at the back of his throat, and the world started to tilt sideways. A dull ache - rather insignificant when compared to the pain lancing through his rib cage, actually - began to suffuse through his muscles, as if he'd spent all day running to only now stop cold, and he was suddenly looking up at the darkening sky.

Funny...hadn't it barely been noon?

A figure stood over him, and it took Michael a very long second to recognize Curumë. The betrayal was a surprise - they had only known each other a few short hours, sure, but he didn't think he'd done anything to offend the half elf. Maybe he could ask, when his recovery was over...assuming his attacker would hang around the area for the week that would take. Michael tried to speak - to say he had nothing worth stealing, maybe, or to spout something witty, he wasn't sure - but his lips wouldn't move, and his lungs ached like the rest of him.

All he managed was a low, wet gurgle before he felt something spill over his lips, and he tasted iron.

His vision continued to darken as Curumë leaned down, and a cold prickling sensation began to needle at the edges of his awareness, as it always did preceding the activation of his curse. With some of his last coherent thought, Michael resigned himself to the magic, and to having to drag himself home from halfway across the kingdom.

This one was going to be hard to explain t o h i s m o t h e r . . .

@deaddoveadventures / STARTER CALL (accepting!)

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"A half-breed faerie, chosen by the Absolute~?" Valtheris let out a low, derisive chuckle, his piercing golden eyes fixed mockingly on Curume. "My, my… it seems MY QUEEN'S standards have become… more inclusive."

The shirtless prisoner on the rack whimpered in agony, strips of skin flayed from his arm by the sharp blade still in the dragon's hand. Skinning someone was an art form of pain — when done correctly.

"Well, far be it from me to doubt HER impeccable judgement in expanding our ranks," he mused, focusing once more on the prisoner. He gently trailed the sharp blade over the (for now) unharmed skin, drawing a terrified sob. He clearly relished in the prisoner's suffering.

"... Has General Thorm sent you, True Soul?"

WHAT IS YOUR AFFECTION LANGUAGE?

consumption of a heart unloved - Curumë

Here’s a dining table, here’s a set of plates. Here’s your heart, red and bursting with love. You have tried to love people all your life, but no one seems to understand you. Your own mother perhaps forgot to teach you how to protect yourself, maybe people whom you trusted chose to look the other way when all you wanted was a hand full of love. All you want is someone to take from you, all you want is someone to dig in your heart and eat it and kiss you afterwards - bloody and red. You want them to tell you that you are what they have been looking for, you want to be the one who ends their hunger.

Which sad planet analogy are you?

Raistlin

Mercury the forgotten planet

You've always felt left aside, no matter were you'd go, you have always been the forgotten one, the black sheep, the third wheel in the group, people take you for granted and make you feel as if you weren't even there, as if you were invisible, but you're not, you're more unique than others could ever think, you just wish they could pay attention to you for once

Curumë

Neptune is drifting away from the solar system

You're tired of everything, you are so sick of everyone around you and nothing makes you feel better anymore. You don't find worth in staying this way, you want to leave everything, to go somewhere very far away where nobody knows your name, and maybe then you could finally be free

@fiendishfinesse cont. from (x)

Raphael’s laughter, soft and resonant, spilled into the dimly lit inn like a velvet curtain, rich and inviting, yet edged with something far sharper. His brown eyes, warm as a summer’s day but with a depth that hinted at endless nights, locked onto Curumë’s with an intensity that could melt the will of weaker men. He leaned casually against the counter, fingers tracing idle patterns on the wood as if he had all the time in the world. "Ah, my dear half-elf," Raphael drawled, voice laced with amusement. "It is a thrill. Rebellion is the sweetest perfume, is it not? A scent that lingers and draws the eye, even in the most unexpected places." His gaze flickered around the shabby inn, a subtle mockery of their surroundings that danced behind his words. "But let us not trade barbs like common thugs in an alleyway. I am merely a traveler, intrigued by the rarest of things—a man who wears his defiance like a crown and his past like a shackle." He straightened, his presence suddenly commanding yet not overbearing—a magnetism that pulled at the very air. "Tell me, what brings a soul like yours to a place so...mundane? Surely you’ve stories worth more than the dust that gathers here." His lips curled into a smile, not of condescension, but of genuine curiosity, as if he truly relished the prospect of peeling back the layers of this enigmatic stranger.

"I'm afraid my stories are as mundane as this establishment here," the Half-Elf smiled and continued to lie through his teeth while those dark, commanding eyes of the man next to him sought to stare him into submission and yet failed to succeed. "Tales of thrill, adventure, riches. I’d say you know the song and dance, but you don’t look the part." Curumë's playful smile twisted into a razor-sharp smirk. "Dare I say, you don’t look like a man who should know as much as you do?"

The other’s subtle hints alluding to his past, his present even, hadn’t gone unnoticed by the warlock, and it was his turn now to pin the man with his gaze. "You’re right, let’s not ‘trade barbs like common thugs in an alleyway,’ as you so eloquently put it, and get straight to the meat of this conversation."

While the Half-Elf didn’t reach for his dagger just yet—having a fight in front of the tavern keep seemed like a bad idea if he didn’t want to spend another night curled up in his bedroll with nothing but the stars above his head and the cold wind rattling his bones— he was ready to do whatever it would take to get rid of the stranger, should things go awry and no longer in his favor.

"Who are you, and more importantly, what do you want?"

[deaddoveadventures]

"From...where are you actually? Also your hometown?"

@astralrogue

Curumë was silent for a moment. He hadn't thought about his childhood home in a long time. Memories of lush greens and earthy smells passed before his inner eye; a row of lanterns guiding his way home on a long and starry night of archery training; the ethereal and curlicued architecture of their elven domicile. And, always, a pair of eyes: mirror-like, yet deeply sad eyes.

When the half-elf finally looked at Ceres, he bore a lukewarm smile.

"Originally the forests of Cormanthyr, but my actual childhood home was the roads of the sword coast." He winked at the changeling, and his half-hearted smile grew softer as he added, "Comes with the pleasures of being a traveling bard's child."

As he sat there, together with Ceres on the edge of the wagon, he leaned back to catch a glimpse of the deep blue sky that stretched out above the unlikely pair.

"Don't mock me, but my real heart lies in Luskan. It's a cesspool, but it was our cesspool." He shrugged. "What about you, Ceres? I heard you talk of Waterdeep before."

[deaddoveadventures]

"Have you thought about the future, beyond this moment?" ((from Michael?))

@springvaletales

"No." The half-elf's answer was short and fast. Maybe too fast to be fully thought through. Yet, the expression Curumë wore as he looked up at the densely woven web of branches and leaves that the canopies spun above their makeshift campsite was one of self-assurance. Why bother with the future if all it did was make him unhappy?

Flipping over on his bedroll, he turned to study Michael. "And I'd prefer to keep it that way." He flashed a cocky grin at him. "Now, I would ask you the same question, but something tells me your thick skull never thinks about anything far beyond self-destruction."

He scoffed, but in truth, his initial scorn for the other warlock had slowly changed into mere confounder throughout the time he had spent with him on the road, fighting goblins and other beasts. Something reeked fishy about his travel companion, and the thief could spot a liar if he saw one.
