#thread: eris and luka

[thxoracle]

“Fuck you!” Eris yelled. “You have absolutely no room to judge me, Luka!” The things said between them had always been harsh, just one dagger after the other. But this—this was deeper than any fight. Now a new life hung between them, something tying them to one another for all eternity. As tears fell down her cheeks, Eris inhaled sharply. The back of her hand wiped her cheeks, gaze drawn down. “So what? You expect me to quit? Quit my dreams to raise your baby, while you go out and do whatever you want?” In most situations, that’s what was expected. It had been the fate of her mother, once a promising ballerina in her own right then tied down by the burden of offspring.

“You came in here and instead of comforting me, or helping out, you’re just being an asshole!” Eris countered. Her throat closed up, she found it hard to speak. She wanted to make him leave, to be left alone. Alone was better than this. “But that’s not hard for you, is it?” Eris then took a few steps forward, finger raised in his face. “I want you to leave.”

there was something about the way she talked about their future that seemed so flippant— the complete opposite of how he was treating it. what she was carrying was not yet significant, and he understood that. he knew she had every right to decide the kind of life she wanted for herself. in fact, it’s what he would’ve encouraged her to do if they were on better terms— but they weren’t. every word from her lips, the same that used to punctuate his mornings with a kiss and end his nights with the same, felt like a knife through his chest. luka was quickly right back where he started, riled up and vengeful. “so that’s it? you’ve made up your mind and i’m just supposed to accept it?!” he asked pointedly, his thick brows knitting together. luka didn’t wait for her to respond, instead he carried on with his rant. he took out every bit of ammunition stored within, some of which he didn’t even believe, just to make her feel as low as he did. “wake the fuck up, eris! this is who you are, and this is who i am. it doesn’t matter who you’re with or where you go, you’ll always be just as fucked up as me. you can try to run from it by twirlin’ around on stage all you want, but it’ll never fuckin’ change that!”

note: if you’re on this list and don’t want to continue our thread just shoot me a message!! same for if i missed our thread and you’d like to continue it!!

note pt. 2: any thread not finished by the 18th will be dropped, just so i can keep things clean. if you’d rather just plot out how something went instead of trying to finish a thread we can definitely do that too <3

SNOW THY ENEMY -- WILSHIRE EVENT #004

if there’s one thing a person can count on when it comes to winter in la, it’s the fact that there definitely won’t be any snow. so when a freak blizzard rolls in out of nowhere and buries the city - trapping most residents indoors - it’s clear to the denizens of the shadow world that something magical is at work. the mastermind behind the nearly all that has gone wrong in the shadow world over the last few months is at it again with a brand new plan to get their hands on some of the institute’s most prized possessions - as well as a certain sword that’s on loan from the silent city. unfortunately for our resident evil genius things don’t quite go according to plan, yet again, and this time they’ll be forced out into the light.

OOC INFORMATION !!

-- the event will take place from saturday 2nd ( 1 pm est ) to wednesday 6th !  -- while we’d appreciate if you’d drop your old threads, you’re definitely free to continue them since we know it’d be hard to intreact only a few people ! but please don’t start any new non-event related threads !

-- the blizzard started while most shadowhunters ( aka: all played shadowhunters ) were away from the institute, and none were able to make it back. -- the snow is magic, obviously, and it’s pretty much a dampening spell of sorts - no one can portal through it ! -- please make a post stating where your character is - and remember, they can’t leave !! unless they want to brave 35 mph ( 56 km/h ) winds, complete lack of visibility, insanely low temperatures, and snowdrifts starting at 3ft ( 0.91m ) - they should probably not try going out. -- don’t forget to talk with eachother and message us where your character will be hiding at before the event starts or we’ll have to randomly pick people ! there’s three options: greene’s deli, hunter’s moon, or hotel dumort. we need each place to have equal number of people, so that way people can interact with more than one person. we’ll let you know when a place is full. note: the reason why your character was at that place may vary. maybe they had something to do in there, maybe they just wanted a drink, or maybe it was the closest place to them when the blizzard started so they went there to hide. totally utp ! -- we’ll have plot drop/s regarding to this event !!  -- please tag all threads w.event004.

a small note: if you don’t like the location you get, please message us and we’ll change it for you ! we want each and every one of you to have fun and feel comfortable so we’ll gladly send you an another one !! and again, if you have claustrophobia and that makes you uncomfortable with this event, just let us know and you’re free to skip it !

PLEASE LIKE THIS POST ONCE YOU’VE READ IT !!

"This ballerina thing? You're serious?" Eris countered. "I have been doing this 'ballerina thing' way before I met you. I am not gonna be a burnout, and I'm definitely not gonna give up my career for a baby I might not even keep!" It was a cruel thing to say, but emotions were high and all composure went out the window. "A baby is not gonna fix our issues, Luka. It's not. We're just gonna doom them into an unstable home and parents who constantly fight." Tears just kept rolling. Eris fiddled with her hands, which hovered over her belly. It became like an instinct already. She was completely lost.

"If we were different people, it might've worked." Eris uttered. She did love Luka, but she could not handle any more fights. Any more yelling and hurting one another, only to fall into each other's arms again. "I don't think I can do this...not with you..."

slowly, luka began to come down from his peak, though irritation still lingered in his body language. he sighed heavily, rubbing his hand against the back of his neck where a knot was forming from far too many days spent with his head craned down towards the soil, where his family's livelihood bloomed. "i don't know, eris. i mean, isn't this what people do? they start off complete shit, and then a baby makes them get their shit together." it was the story of his parents— their marriage wasn't perfect by any means, but they seemed to love each other and these days luka felt that could be enough. something flawed had to be better than nothing at all. "i know your career means a lot to you, but how long do you think you can do this ballerina thing until you burnout like the rest of them? is there not a single part of you that wants to see where this goes?"

[thxoracle]

Eris backed away slightly as he raised his voice. She crossed her arms over her chest, back against the wall. She looked away from him, eyes filling with more and more tears. Truth was she was afraid. Afraid of being pregnant and becoming a mom, but also afraid that Luka would want nothing to do with the baby and leave her alone. She didn't want him to leave. "Oh I'm sorry, because it's so easy to read you all the fucking time!" Eris countered. "He doesn't know, okay? He doesn't..."

Eris sniffled. "Look, I just didn't know how to say anything. I mean...we didn't plan any of this." She uttered. "I am about to be in the most competitive season at the academy, and you've got all these ambitions. A baby is just gonna stop it all..." It wasn't that Eris didn't want to be a mom, she did. But it was too early, too soon. It came at the worst time possible. "And we didn't end it well the last time we broke up, Luka. You think we can really have a baby together and not be fucking miserable?"

“the hell do you mean you weren’t sure i-” luka stopped abruptly when he realized his voice was raising to a level far too hostile. regardless of how scorned he felt, he still cared for eris and bringing her to tears wasn’t his intention. he inhaled deeply before starting again, this time with a lowered, more measured tone that was only slightly less intense than before. “i came here because i was hoping you’d be smart enough not to keep something like this from me, and i wanted to make sure you weren’t going to let your dumbass boyfriend raise my kid. does he even know it’s mine?”

[thxoracle]

Eris met him halfway. She wasn't going to back down under his ridicule. "I wasn't sure you'd want it!" Eris bit back. Tears stung her eyes, and in that moment she wanted to crawl into a hole and stay there. There was a lot on the line here. Eris had a career as a professional ballerina ahead of her, and a baby would only derail that. She wasn't sure what to do. Luka was certainly not helping. "Dante isn't a loser, alright? He's a good guy." Eris bit her tongue. Hurling insults would do nothing but cause her more stress. The woman cleared her throat. "So what? You came by here to claim responsibility? To let me know how inconvenient this all is?"

the deafening hum of his heart worsened once eris admitted what he suspected. he was still processing the revelation when the weight of her words fully settled on his shoulders. “if what?” he pressed. without thinking, luka stepped towards her, eliminating what little space was left between them. “you weren’t sure if you wanted me involved, or did you just think i wasn’t the father ‘cause you’ve been fuckin’ around with some loser?” he didn’t have the right to be offended by the notion of eris finding someone new after their split, but that wasn’t going to stop him from doing just that.

[thxoracle]

Eris eyes him up and down. The audacity. "Like what?" Eris tilted her head to the side. Arrogance was not the best course of action, but if it was one thing Luka and Eris had in common, it would be pride. Eris crossed her arms over her chest, gaze fell to the floor. "I'm guessing someone told you already. You wouldn't be here if..." She trailed off. Eris cleared her throat then. "I'm pregnant. It's true." Truth was, there was no doubt who the father was. Eris and Luka had broken things off for the last time (or so they say), but the dates do not match her current boyfriend, Dante. "Look, I wanted to tell you...but I only found out this morning and I wasn't sure if..."

the man wastes no time and immediately brushed past eris the moment she gave him permission to enter. just the sight of her home flooded his mind with memories of their time together, a past that now felt more like a dream or a nightmare than anything tangible. pushing aside his sentimentality, he turned to confront her. “i’m going to give you the opportunity to be honest with me for once,” luka’s sharp brown eyes narrowed to assess her body in the dimly lit room, searching for any sign that pointed to new life. “do you have something to tell me?”
