❝ if you're here to look for some ghosts , i'm afraid you're out of luck. ❞ barbara smiles at the tall gentleman who's caused quite a stir in the town of winter river , a little surprised that she's managed to cross paths with him in her hardware store. there's always been an aura of darkness that has hovered over the town for as long as she can remember , but it hasn't been enough to convince many residents of the presence of actual ghosts or whatever else might be out there. barbara wants to believe in the possibility , but she hasn't really had a chance to really consider it. her husband has long since departed from this world , leaving her on her own to tend to the hardware store they opened together. if ghosts were a thing , wouldn't he have tried to reach her ? she pushes the thought out of her mind , focusing now on the stranger before her , confident that he's not here looking to repair something in his home.
❝ i doubt many ghosts would want to haunt a hardware store. not unless they were involved in some freak DIY project. ❞ she chuckles , leaning against the counter as she takes in the stranger now that he's approached closer. despite not being from here , atticus levy looked like he could pass for a winter river resident. she's not sure why she gets that feeling from him , but it's strangely welcoming & it endears her to him. ❝ atticus levy , right ? i know your name , only because bill the barber next door won't stop talking about you. ❞ she grins. ❝ can't say i've read any of your work , though. here in this hardware store , you're just a regular outsider to me , so sorry if i don't fangirl over you. ❞

normally the library is his solace away from the ever judgmental world , but the linguist quickly finds there is no real place to hide in the city of gotham , no matter how hard you try to stay in the shadows. he came here to teach at gotham city with the hopes to continue his research on atlantis on the side , but he ends up finding out that his free time is spent ensuring his safety on a constant basis , looking over his shoulder constantly like a meercat poking its head from a hole. it's not exactly a great way to live , but he's already moved from DC into his new apartment. it'd be a pain to bring everything back & give up on here , & truth be told , he isn't really the type to just give up on things anyway. bullies are nothing unusual for the linguist who's dealt with them pretty much all his life , but what is unusual is the woman who decides to stand up for him , sending all those men leaving the library in a frustrated huff. milo is honestly surprised by her bravery , as the men looked like the sort who wouldn't set foot in a library for fun. clearly something shady was going to be attempted , but this woman stopped that from happening & he's really , really impressed with how she held herself in that situation.
❝ wait . . . you know my research ? ❞ milo's interest is suddenly piqued at the mention of her knowing of atlantis , aware that his research is open to the public , but most people don't take him seriously or even really give his writings the time of day. he beams at the woman & immediately goes to shake her hand , enthusiastic as he does so , almost on the verge of jumping for joy. this is probably the most joy he's shared with another person in a while , & in the city of gotham of all places ! ❝ thanks a lot for the save earlier , but man , now you have me so curious on how you heard about me. did you read my work ? what did you think of it. ? ❞ slow down thatch , comes a voice in his head & he makes a mental note to slow it down a notch , giving the woman a chance to breathe before continuing. ❝ i'm milo. milo thatch. uh , i mean , you probably already knew that. ❞ he laughs weakly. ❝ what's your name ? are you the librarian here ? boy , you sure do run a tight ship. no one's gonna be messing around here with you in charge. ❞
𝙸𝙽𝙲𝙾𝙼𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝙼𝙴𝚂𝚂𝙰𝙶𝙴 . . . MILO THATCH
no one's ever stood up for me like that before.
the hard scowl on her face softens at the words of @wovetales. gaze turning away from the retreating backs of the men who had thrown such vicious words around, and got back tenfold, to land on milo. ❝ i could never stand bullies. ❞ and she knows what it's like to be on the other side. to be teased because she's smarter, or nerdier, or a loser - she's all of those things and proud of it. so she's glad for the library, her sanctuary, where it doesn't matter that she's in a chair or that she's a woman. her brain - her intellect and wits - are valued.
❝ don't listen to them, i think your research is fascinating. ❞ she pushes herself further into the room, gaze trailing across the papers that litter the space. bit by bit a smile starts to bloom across her lips. his passion is clear in every word, and perhaps that's what drew her to him in the first place. they might be two kindred souls, marching side by side in their pursuit of knowledge. some of the best research she's read are ones not by those of clear intellect, but whose deep care for the subject seeps from every dot of ink. milo's might be the best of the lot. ❝ i always thought the lost city was like robin hood or the knights of camelot - a myth - but after i read your paper . . . i think you'll find it one day. ❞

& there she is in all her splendor , finally granting the spy the attention he had so anxiously been vying for. even in her sleepy state , the cat manages to remain witty & playful , her gently caresses along his arm enough to make loid shiver in response , hoping there will be more as the morning progresses. amazing how one woman can do so little & yet greatly affect him. as a spy , he knew how to keep his emotions hidden ━━ to appear heartless no matter what the situation. felicia didn't seem to like that aspect of himself & eventually her own poking & prodding led to the successful capture of his heart , a victory that is rewarded with the loyalty of forever being hers. well . . . at least for as long as she will desire him. ever the practical thinker , the agent knows there is the possibility that this may not last forever. the nature of their line of work makes that almost an inevitability , but even so he'll so what he can to cling to this romance close , desperate to enjoy every waking moment he gets with her.
felicia's sleepy response garners a soft chuckle out of him , his hand resting on the back of her head & slowly guiding her into a needy kiss ━━ the first of many of the day. ❝ mmm . . . i couldn't agree more , ❞ the agent hums against her lips , his hands now diving to caress her body as she did to him moments before , finding himself particularly fond of her legs & the curvaceous nature of her hips. ❝ we could turn this into something more , you know. ❞ the agent's turn to purr now , eyes falling shut as the warmth begins to bring sleep back to his body , but he fights it with another kiss & a gentle sigh. ❝ a vacation of sorts. i have an assignment in rome in a few days . . . you could join me. stay in my suite & explore the city. ❞ another kiss , his body now moving to pin her to the mattress , the action no doubt surprising , but his touches remain gentle & soft , desiring nothing else but to worship her. ❝ we can enjoy the nightlife together. eat at the finest restaurants & then come back to the hotel & sleep . . . or make love , if you're in the mood. ❞ a kiss is gifted to her neck , nipping the soft skin in his desire to bite , but he refrains. ❝ look at me. you have me asking you to come with me on my mission. i'm supposed to go alone & yet i'm asking you & considering breaking the rules. felicia . . . the effect you have on me is absolutely astounding. ❞
A SWEET CAT - NAP, : BUT A SWEETER REALITY THAT SHE WAKES UP TO. ... a soft purr, siren - like tune murmuring with the loving sensation of his lips pressed against her skin. &. lips curl automatically, satisfied with the feeling, &. GROWING GREEDY FOR MORE. what a thief! ... but it is that, mixed with familiar voice calling her name, &. she shifts slightly, ❝ hmm, ... ❞ acknowledging hum, LETTING THE AGENT KNOW HE SUCCEEDED! position shifted, she turns to her other side, WITH THE GOAL TO FACE HIM. ... long eyelashes flutter, as slowly jade hues become visible to him, &. the sight before her stretch that enchanting smile, ❝ morning. ❞ to that smooth, captivating voice, there was embedded signature felicia - like playfulness.
HIS WARMTH RADIATES TO HER FAIR SKIN, : &. SHE NUZZLES CLOSER, ... her eyes never leaving his. ( if not only to steal a glance of his lips! ) tenderily, almost gracefully her finger trace his arm, to his neck, to his jawline. ❝ you know, i could really get used to waking up like this. ❞ she muses, &. while her tune may sound teasing, there is truth to it all. @wovetales

there's only so much a genius can solve on their own , & with the pressure of immediate death right on their heels , milo doesn't really feel very smart right now. upon seeing the puzzle they need to solve in order to get through the door , the linguist immediately took action in order to get them out of there quickly & safely. of course , he never imagined he'd actually have this much trouble with the damn thing & as much as he loves his friend buzzy , the humming really isn't something he needs in his ear right now. his hands begin to sweat as he continues to struggle with finding a solution , until buzzy breaks his promised silence with the desire to help , pointing out a fact that milo hadn't realized until this very moment. a nonogram ━━ of course ! how could he be so stupid ? clearly he was too hasty in trying to be the hero in this situation. maybe , in this instance , he ought to give the spotlight to someone else.
❝ yeah . . . i think this is more in line with your area of expertise anyway , buzz. ❞ milo moves to give buzzy the space to begin his attempt at the puzzle , arms crossed as he waits to see how he does. ❝ a nonogram . . . 'course it was a nonogram. how did i not see that ? ❞ milo mumbles to himself , disappointed in his own failure. ❝ way go to , thatch. all that early schooling , oxford university graduate & for what ? can't even figure out what a nonogram is. some genius you are. ❞
from @wovetales: you make it hard to focus. / milo for buzzy!
"is it my humming? i'll stop." buzzy zips his lip with two fingers, then tosses an invisible key over his shoulder. at once, he starts rocking back and forth on his heels, hands behind his back, not humming. milo is taking a very long time to solve the puzzle — which is fine, of course, if it were a casual thing in a garden somewhere or on someone's back porch with their grandmother — but this is life or death. this is they've been trapped, and the only way to escape is through this locked door, through this strange puzzle on the wall. milo took point, and now buzzy, with a strained expression on his face, braces for the worst.
"okay, can you or can you not solve it?" at last, buzzy breaks free of his silence to poke his head over milo's shoulder. "it's a nonogram. can you solve a nonogram?" he very much adores his friend and trusts him with his life (as anyone would), but there does come a point where the near-death experience outweighs any shred of kindness. "can i help? i won't hum. i swear. just — can i try? do you mind? or do you see that as an offense taking over of your territory and, subsequently, your manhood?"

❝ is this your way of greeting me , victor ? be careful. it almost sounded like you missed me. ❞; the blonde grins as he begins removing his rather lavish coat as he enters through the doorway , already making himself home in victor's little apartment. true , he had been off traveling for quite some time with no contact to anyone he knows , but he always managed to return in the end & strangely enough , he also always found his way back to victor's place too. ❝ i hope you didn't get into too much trouble while i was gone. ❞ howl sits at the dining room table , one leg crossing the other. ❝ there's only so many lives a cat can have. you have to be on your fourth or fifth one by now. ❞
❛❛ i haven't heard from you in weeks. ❜❜

i really want lydia to find more connections & maybe even toy with the concept of her finding romance , but i also want to explore her struggling through motherhood. lydia is not the sort of person you'd ever see being a mother initially , but she does love & care for those in her circle fiercely , sometimes to a fault of seeming overly protective due to her abilities. she really can be soft & doting to those younger than her & i'd love to venture into that more , not just with astrid , but others too.

the scope of raven's powers still remains a mystery to him , if only because he hasn't been able to truly speak out loud & query her properly. if he had met raven during his original time period , he might have been frightened of the prospect of such power , but with things having changed now that he lives in the modern time , he's become quite fascinated by it , curious how she can effortlessly mend rotting flesh & aching wounds as if he had never been buried in the ground in the first place. she has bewitched him the moment he was able to truly lay his eyes on her , & the longer they spent together , the more he finds himself unable to resist remaining at her side. he understands the circumstances of his return to this earth make his romantic yearnings incredibly impossible. after all , she is the reason for his life , & that no doubt makes their relationship a bit complicated from the start. still , ever the artist , the creature continues to admire & yearn for the saint anyway , his now beating heart pumping & skipping a beat anytime she speaks , her voice melodic & more beautiful than any sonata he could ever write. perhaps his death was a thing to be celebrated despite it's dramatic end. it must be , he thinks , if it led him to her.
as expected , raven meets his concern with reassurance & her own worries. ever the empathetic soul , always caring for others ━━ another reason why the creature can resist his growing feelings. upon her suggestion over a warm drink back at home , he smiles & offers her a nod in agreement , greatly enjoying the idea. he's always been one to drink tea every morning during the cold winter nights during his original time period , but he has become quite fond of hot chocolate recently , particularly the delicious cream that is placed on top from a loud can , along with little colorful sweets that create an amusing display. before they begin their trek back , the creature makes a grunting noise as he removes his coat , placing it around raven's shoulders with gentle precision. ❝ . . . here. ❞ the sound comes out strained ━━ a croak almost , but the word is clearer than ever before. another smile is offered in addition to his arm , prepared to walk back with her so they can enjoy warmer temperatures back home.
﹙ ✷ ﹚the turn of the seasons brings forth melancholy on the empath, and with it, a desire to bask on the pleasant ways nature changes. raven is not one to care about her own wellbeing beyond that of how her heart can help others, however she’s found herself entranced by the idea of these walks when the world’s pain swallows her: a respite from the duties of a self - appointed saint, the respite of having her mind uninvaded by other’s emotions, only feeling the fleeting joy of a bluebird’s flight and the ghostlike embrace of the wind.
it had been in one of these walks where she felt him, or rather, the remnants of him.
ever a being of souls, raven could not resist the pull of unfinished death, a subtle energy lingering about the overgrown cemetery’s vines, cradling his grave. within the cacophony of human life she wouldn’t have noticed, but in the quiet of the woods, he had been the only thing she could notice. after a while, she couldn’t resist the calling, as if fate had placed her life - keeping hands upon his destiny, desperate to ease the sorrows that must keep him here, tied to this earth. when she met him first, she couldn’t tell why, out of all the lives in this soil, she had been beckoned to choose his, but she’s determined to try.
the healing process has been arduous, but he couldn’t have a better mistress. the mystic demon’s very essence is that of healing. rough salvation nonetheless, she feels his death every time she touches him, swallowing it to keep him warm and living. her dedication is still an uphill battle, and while she helps his development with soft grace, she’s pushed herself to her own limits to see it happen. this, she tries not to let show.
the sun creeps through the trees, a chimera of light, as it does very little against the incoming cold. admittedly she’s ill - dressed, dawning a simple kalamkari - printed dress, her trusty hoodie left abandoned by her apartment door. when he reaches over she stops, shifting her attention from the leaves to his kind features. ‘ you must not worry about me, ’ she reassures with a calmness that should be a smile. her body is numb most days, by her own volition. today is no different. ‘ are you cold ? we may return, if you wish, ’ is that worry in his heart ? the idea of his emotions pumping blood through his veins feels like a victory. ‘ i can make you a warm drink at home. ’

it's been so long since he's been around other people that he finds himself slightly overwhelmed when the silver haired woman approaches with such curiosity. he barely has time to register what has happened before she begins bombarding him with questions , but he does know that he was dead at one point , though for how long , he couldn't say. her attire is still something he can somewhat recognize , though clearly a long time has past enough for the fashions to have changed. he tries to open his mouth to speak to her & attempt to answer her queries , but he finds speech to be difficult , the years of no talking causing strain on his unused vocal chords. nothing more than a croak comes out of his throat , struggling to say anything , until after a moment , something finally gets out.
❝ death . . . quick. ❞ it's all he can manage for the time being , recalling how he was hit by a shock of lightening out of the blue & then everything went completely dark. there is slight fear evident in his gaze as he takes a moment to truly look over this mysterious woman , wondering if she was the cause for his return , or perhaps she is looking to use him for something ━━ witchcraft or something similar. truthfully , she doesn't look like a witch. no . . . she seems to appear too kind to be capable of such mischievous things. he clears his throat once again in an attempt to answer her next question , once again struggling to speak , but a few words do manage to break through. ❝ yes . . . piano . . . broken heart. ❞ he goes into a coughing fit after that , deciding it's best that he stop talking for now. it'll be some time before he can properly speak , if ever , but he hopes that was enough to satisfy the woman's curiosity.
Oh, what a way to die.
the creature to rapunzel
fingers comb through silver strands, twisting them into braids before shaking it out. a habit, a way to keep itchy fingers busy. perhaps a way to prove to herself that her hair isn't as deadly as they say. that she can control the power bestowed upon her by the moondrop. rapunzel thinks often about death. maybe too much for someone her age, still many decades away from the fate herself. she thinks about the story her goodwife had told her, how her untapped power had made her an orphan. how it makes her a danger to everyone else. head tilts, dark eyes trained on @wovetales. but if that person had already died once before . . . well, surely she would no longer be a danger?
perhaps it was that intrigue that brought her story from her lips. for once, the shame doesn't feel so deep.
rapunzel shuffles along the trunk that had substituted for a bench, so that she's sat right beside him. chin falls into her hands, looking up at him with curiosity in her eye. ❝ what is it like to die? was it painful? did your life flash before your eyes? ❞ was it rude to ask? no one had ever taught her otherwise. she's never spoken to another person, besides her mother gothel. never met someone new. it's thrilling, and she wants to know everything. she tries to bite her tongue, mother gothel gets annoyed when she asks too many questions at once, but it's too hard. ❝ do you remember much of your life before? ❞
