He was healed by now, at least he thought he was, but he needed a shower and to change and some blood if he was being honest. Part of him hoped no one had noticed but of course his mother had, but she shouldn't have worried. "I'm fine. I'm sorry I worried you. Please don't worry about me," he said gently as he tried to tug the ruined shirt closer to his body. "Are you okay? I'm sorry for worrying you. I'm sorry for being gone but I'm okay don't worry about any of it okay?"

@nightskied gets Autumn St. James for Jo Harvelle!
"Hey! You can't just come in here and steal my case! I've been on this for a week already!" Otter huffed at the other girl after they exited the house of the woman Otter had been talking to. "Listen, I don't work well with others, and you're hot and all but that's even more reason not to like... kill each other unintentionally because we don't know how the other works, so..."

ʜᴇ ʜᴀᴅ ʙᴀʀᴇᴅ ʜɪs sᴄᴀʀs ɪɴ ғʀᴏɴᴛ ᴏғ ʜᴇʀ ғᴀʀ ᴛᴏᴏ ᴍᴀɴʏ ᴛɪᴍᴇs now that the questions of the marks that scattered his torso didn't come as a shock. the lump of scar tissue that she grazed sent a shiver down his spine as a flashback crossed through his mind causing him to swallow thickly - he was wary of how much to tell her, ᴅᴇʙᴀᴛɪɴɢ ᴏɴ sᴜɢᴀʀ ᴄᴏᴀᴛɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴇ sᴛᴏʀɪᴇs ʙᴇʜɪɴᴅ ᴛʜᴇ sᴄᴀʀs, sometimes it was easier that way. eyes watched as her thumb traced a thick long crescent scar just below his peck, the question lingering as he fell silent for a moment as the ʀᴇᴄᴏʟʟᴇᴄᴛɪᴏɴ ᴏғ ᴛʜᴇ ᴇxᴘʟᴏsɪᴏɴ rang through him, ❛ that would be from shrapnel from when my squads vehicle flipped, a six inch bar kept me alive believe it or not. ❜
his fingers ran along her shoulder as if to keep him grounded to reality, ʜᴇ ʜᴀᴅ ʏᴇᴛ ᴛᴏ sʜᴀʀᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ɪɴᴛɪᴍᴀᴛᴇ ᴅᴇᴛᴀɪʟs ᴏғ ᴛʜᴏsᴇ ᴅᴀʏs ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴀɴʏᴏɴᴇ, it had become a wedge between him and many of his friends and the biggest wedge between him and his family - especially his sister. his free hand guided hers to a circle shaped welp below his collarbone, ❛ there's a matching one of these on the back of my shoulder - i was moving one of my brothers from the humvee when i got hit. ❜ the scar on his back was slightly larger but ᴄᴀᴍᴇ ғʀᴏᴍ ᴛʜᴇ sᴀᴍᴇ ᴍᴇᴛᴀʟ ғʀᴀɢᴍᴇɴᴛs.

"I'm sorry, by the way. Not that it means anythin' all these years later, but— I'm sorry, anyway."

☾ @nightskied continued from xx ☽
░ The young vampire sucked on the dead man’s throat with her fangs, practically gulping the blood from his veins, finally feeling full after weeks of starving herself. The disappointment hadn’t hit her yet. Claudia tried to be good, to not kill innocents, but knew deep down that if she hadn’t of fed that night, her body would’ve shut down. The pain was unbearable — like a monster with talons clawing at her organs waiting to be released. And besides, while she was following the man in the street, he had harassed multiple women, some younger than herself, walking alone that wanted nothing to do with him. So, perhaps his death was justifiable. She’d done a public service. Leaning her head back, Claudia gasped suddenly at the woman’s voice, eyes wide with terror. “I don’t—“ She wiped blood from her bottom lip. Surely it was too dark to see any detail on her face. “Excuse me?”

❛ But the horror, the horror was for love. ❜ - @nightskied (from Theodosia Whigham?)
FOR LOVE? was that really what they believed? that all this horror and madness was some form of romantic outreach? not in her world, not in any world, and it certainly did not aspire to any sense of romance as far as she was concerned. “this is not some show of love, horror is just horror.” she stressed sharply as her head shook and she stared him down. “there is nothing appealing and romantic about any of this, if you think there is than that’s a problem...”

@nightskied said: ❝ the voices of the dead were said to have the power to make the living mad. ❞
"Because that's not concerning," Delilah muttered as she looked at Sarah. "I'd like to keep the dead and their voices where they won't drive us all mad." Now she was just concerned about what was going on and what would come next.

⸻ @nightskied liked the sc // john & carmela
⸻ ❛ “small towns make me nervous. everybody knows everybody else’s business.” the fact that john was from one himself didn’t matter. being in a large city made him feel safe, like no one could fuck with him. “guess most people feel the same way.”

☈ @nightskied sent ; ❛ we’ve just been fooling ourselves. this never was what it should’ve been. ❜ ( lizze @ nolan )
ɪᴛ ʜᴀᴅ ʙᴇᴇɴ ʙᴀᴄᴋ ᴀɴᴅ ғᴏʀᴛʜ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴛʜᴇᴍ sɪɴᴄᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴍᴏᴍᴇɴᴛ ᴛʜᴇʏ ᴍᴇᴛ, the closer they got the more they began to push the other away - it was D R A I N I N G. lately he had questioned if they were worth holding onto, or was it too taxing for both of them? his hand trembled at his side, ᴛʜᴇ ᴋᴇʏs ᴄʟᴀɴᴋɪɴɢ ᴛᴏɢᴇᴛʜᴇʀ ᴡᴇʀᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴏɴʟʏ ɴᴏɪsᴇ ᴛᴏ ғɪʟʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʀᴏᴏᴍ when she finished talking. he wanted to yell - to call her on her bullshit but his voice failed him.
nolan gave a small nod of his head before turning his attention to the keys in his hand, ғɪɴɢᴇʀs ғɪᴅɢᴇᴛɪɴɢ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴍᴏᴠᴇ ʜᴇʀ ᴀᴘᴀʀᴛᴍᴇɴᴛ ᴋᴇʏ ғʀᴏᴍ ᴛʜᴇ ᴄʜᴀɪɴ ( it was given in case of emergencies - only really needing for it a handful of times when lizze locked herself out of the apartment ). perhaps it was for the best, he would likely be called up for duty soon enough maybe ɪᴛ ᴡᴀs ᴛʜᴇ ʀɪɢʜᴛ ᴛɪᴍᴇ ᴛᴏ ᴘᴀʀᴛ ᴡᴀʏs.
