LOCATION: En route to the Sinclair-Martinez duplex WHO: Onyx Martinez ( @cyberneticatoms )

"God, that was a long flight," Stevie sighed as she leaned back against the car seat, briefly closing her eyes and taking a deep breath to recenter herself after their mad dash from the jet to the car. In theory, landing on a private airstrip where her driver could literally pull up to the tarmac and wait for them should have afforded them some privacy, but there were always at least a few paparazzi who managed to sneak in.

Opening her eyes, she reached for one of the water bottles in the car and glanced out the window. "It's good to be back though, isn't it?" She turned toward Onyx with a small smile. "What's the first thing you're going to do when we get home?"

( 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐏 𝐃𝐀𝐘 - 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒓 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒚 𝒊𝒏 𝑪𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒌, 𝑴𝒂𝒏𝒉𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒂𝒏 ) The stars, to Onyx Harper, transcended the realm of mere luminous points in the sky; they were profound manifestations of cosmic energy. The call of the cosmos beckoned with promises of new revelations with every changing moon. Despite his usual solace-seeking in the quiet corners of Brooklyn, an irresistible and uncharacteristic pull drew him toward the heart of Manhattan for this special celebration, guided by a weekly bulletin highlighting the organized stargazing event.

Amidst the ambient glow of the city, Onyx established his personal observation post, where the anticipation of viewing the night sky mingled with a hint of skepticism. The harsh reality of light pollution in the urban jungle cast doubt on the clarity of the celestial spectacle he sought. Undeterred, he contemplated the night sky, his gaze searching for the prominent figures he aspired to identify. With practiced grace, he adjusted his telescope, desperately seeking a clear spot in the sky until he detected the approach of another figure. To them, he openly admitted, "This is starting to feel like one of those fishing trips my father used to force on me." He chuckled, "Any advice on where to look?" @bhqextras

Onyx was probably raised by a well-meaning misandrist who married a man with no backbone, and now Onyx has a flight/fight/freeze response to men who go against what she was taught.

@shxfting sent: ❥ from onyx for one of the fae???? || Send ❥ for my muse’s reaction to an arranged marriage with yours.

calix asked first, which she appreciates. she didn’t expect it, honestly. she’s always known an arrangement was a possibility, but she didn’t expect to be consulted on it. but calix did, and he was surprisingly straightforward about why he thought it was a good idea. if she didn’t want it, she was free to say no. he would figure something else out. but… it’s kind of an easy choice. the court of fortunes isn’t going to murder her for shits and giggles. mathilda? might. and if merlin is willing to do this, why shouldn’t she be? maybe she’ll get lucky and they’ll fall in love. or maybe they can just be friends. she’ll take that, too. anything that isn’t miserable sounds great.

she’s glad that they get to meet just the two of them. there will be an engagement party later, she’s sure, but she’s never liked being the center of attention and meeting her fiance with everyone watching sounds like a nightmare scenario. “i’ve, uh, heard good things,” she tells him, with a tentative smile. “calix thinks pretty highly of you and your court.”

"Fuck!" Nyx cursed out, his fist angrily hitting the corridor wall before he let out a immediate hiss at the impact. This night was shaping up to be a trainwreck, feelings of anger, guilt, pain all bubbling to the surface. He ripped his mask off, tossing it to the floor as he heard someone approach. "Fuck off, I am not in the mood," He spat out, spinning around to face the other with a cold glare.

"you know, you can always come to me, about anything really," suri commented, crossing one leg over the other. she knew it was a lot different being in a coven and having a seemingly built in support system, but she had never really found that life apealing. "now, tell me, what's up?"

“coming home to me after a night out?” lucien asks, seemingly unimpressed by the other’s late-night visit. he doesn’t need to look up to know it’s his best friend but as the footsteps come closer, he lifts his head up and gives the other a quick once over. “and your clothes are still intact! i’m impressed, nyx.” before untangling himself from the sheets, he sets something down on the nightstand with a quiet clink. meeting onyx halfway, lucien immediately pulls him closer, strong hands on the other’s waist. “though, i’d prefer if the next time you make your way into my bedroom in the middle of the night, you’re wearing... less. i almost feel underdressed.”

"I let someone shoot tequila into my mouth with a water gun, I ate some pizza on a stick that was...subpar at best and I even managed to know one of the songs playing on stage. I think that makes me a winner for tonight." Reyna's smile was slow growing as they found Cal and Onyx. When they were unsuccessful in finding their brother they had gone in search of the few friends they did have in Rosewood and it was comforting when they spotted them both at the same time. "I mean I don't want to be outrageous or overly kind but I guess this is kind of fun. Are you two having fun? Because if I'm having more fun then we're all doing something wrong." @nadinedahl @reedxlewis

Onyx's apartment, nestled in the heart of Brooklyn, was a sanctuary of greenery. Potted plants adorned every available surface, their verdant leaves casting a calming atmosphere he cherished. However, his neighbors, Neva in particular, held a different opinion on the botanical abundance that spilled over the fire escape. Their relationship had started as nothing more than occasional glares exchanged over the railing – a silent battle between his flourishing foliage and her desire for a clear, unobstructed view. Then Onyx began the attempts of getting to know the bundle of temporary fury, often placing his pots directly in her space. Truth be told, it could be a bit lonely being so withdrawn. He didn't expect to come to find them an interesting person, but it seemed that oddities were a common occurrence now -

The sound of footsteps on the rusty metal staircase caught his attention. The scent of alcohol wafted through the air, mingling with the fragrant blooms. Onyx, engrossed in his ritual of watering and pruning, failed to notice the approaching footsteps until Neva appeared at his window. To his bewilderment, she was attempting to climb inside, and succeeding. "What in the---" Onyx exclaimed, a mix of confusion and amusement evident in his voice. As the surreal scenario played out, Onyx couldn't help but chuckle. "What in the hell are you doing?!" He's not really sure how she managed it because not only is the fire escape broken but she appeared to be plastered drunk. "And hey, watch the fiddle-leaf fig !" thats the, Ficus lyrata, or tall boy as he likes to refer to him. "Those are particularly really hard to keep alive!" @bjorkn

ᡣ𐭩 @weedzkiller sent : private 4….. pre baby kit/onyx…… / source

perhaps, onyx was simply easily sidetracked, all too excited by the notion of settling into their own place with kit that everything practical, everything they needed to do soon fell by the wayside. all their boxes are already inside, half open and scattered about, and onyx has no idea where to really begin, but that matters little when he catches kit’s smile. it’s an instant reaction, heart fluttering at the sight of pink cheeks and disheveled hair from all their running around. their little bare mattress is all the furniture they have to take a rest on, and with kit already settled so comfortably, can onyx be blamed for wanting to join him?

onyx slides onto kit’s lap all too easily, arms lazily draping over the other’s shoulders with a little grin. “ it’s nice, isn’t it? ” kisses follow soon after, peppered across kit’s face and neck in an eager attempt to cover him in them. “ it’s nice to have our own place, just us. ” no disruptions, no one barging in while onyx slides his hands under kit’s shirt. “ aren’t you warm though? maybe you should take some of this off… wouldn’t want you to overheat, babe. ” hips shift against kit's lap, a slow rhythm settling against him to tease as teeth nip at his neck. “ you’ve been working hard moving everything in too, don’t you think you deserve a break ? ”

For as long as she'd been back in Daggerpoint, Danika had not bothered to go see what Onyx had gotten himself up to. That wasn't exactly their relationship anyway - but it was nice to have at least one family member in the area.

After being directed to where her brother was (most likely) acting busier than he was, she approached him, kicking his boot as she got close enough. "Hey; this town isn't big enough for the both of us, and I'm the better looking one."

It had been years since he'd last seen the other, since they'd walked away from him and broke his heart in the process. They had been the only person he'd ever romantically let in, and a clear sign that he'd made a mistake in doing so which had led him to making it clear he'd never get in another relationship. But they had left, so why was it they were in front of him, back on the island? "Neo?" He called out, cocking his head to the side. His heart ached at the sight of the other, but it was soon replaced with anger. "Finally decided we were good enough for you to come crawling back, then?"
