I'm…Waiting for @TopazWyrmlet~
(Hi! Can I join?)
(IDK if @TopazWyrmlet~ will be back on tonight.)
(haha lol)
(uh. can someone get me caught up or is it too late to join?)
(Read it!)
(Erm, it took me a long time and I speed read it… Good luck.)
(You can do it @mo. We believe in you!)
(Sorry if you have been waiting for me @Aeryn, The last Zander post had him falling asleep so I was using it to draw a picture of his background. I can wake him up though)
(Also welcome @hope Berge, can't wait to see your character in the story)
(12 y/o Zander) * Zander watched as the last man fell. The R.A.C. had put him in a room with 37 men. Tomorrow it would be 38. They had put him in the room and told him he wouldn't get rations for 3 days for every man left standing. He had made sure there were none. The first two days he didn't want to hurt anybody, and had suffered dearly for it. The door opened, and a large man stepped through. It was an higher ranking agent. "Line up Agent Krypt" The man said, "You took out all the men in this room, and in record time, but you are still getting your rations halved till tomorrow." " WHA—" Zander started, but quickly stopped, it wouldn't work out if he was insubordinate. Zander re-corrected his stance, " Why are my rations being cut sir?" "Shouldn''t it be obvious," he let out a wicked smile and pulled out a tablet, "You're working to feed two now." On the screen was picture of his sister. *
(Later that day[ in Zanders room{ Agent Wembel is Scottish and only temp for the flashbacks}])* "You best calm down laddie." Agent Wrembel muttered from his seat." That man is a right on jack(censored), but don't let it get to you." He was whittling something on Zanders desk. "But he's already decided to double the amount of people in the room since then!" Zander complained from his spot on the bed, it was old and he kept his sheet bunched on a part where a spring stabbed forward. "It doesn't matter," the man said turning his head to face Zander, "Don't borrow trouble that ain't yours lad, it'll only hurt her." Zander sighed. The old man was right again. Then he noticed something. " You are going to pick that up, right? Those wood shavings that you left on the desk." " Nope, your in charge of your space, ya shouldn't have let me whittle here." Zander shot up, but to his dismay the man was already gone. He smiled though as he looked on the table and saw the item that Wrembel had worked so hard on. It was an odd shaped dagger buried under the shavings, he inspected and saw down the handle was its name. He smiled, it said Glimmer. *
XD wow, you guys stay up late
Im like an old person when it comes to my sleep schedule xD
Also i had a choir concert to see yesterday, hence my absence! But i should be free today :) )
"I'm going to teach you how to ballroom dance," Peter laughed softly, rubbing his thumbs on the back of her hands. "Though, I still need to finish putting on this suit. You don't even have to get dressed up if you don't want to, but if you do, I'm sure Macha will be glad to help," he smiled sheepishly, a nonverbal begging her to accept getting dressed up and fancy.
(It's the night of the ball correct?)
(not yet)
(Okay cool)
(well, I might have just exploded on her and she might not want to talk to me right now…" Skylar sighed, loOking into Peter's eyes. "But I can try." She pulled away from Peter slowly, and kissed his forehead. "You continue to get ready. I will come back in twenty minutes. I promise." She turned around and trudged to the room she and Macha had just been in. Knocking, she asked; "Macha?"
Macha’s was leaning with her eyes closed against Ace when she heard the knock. “Come in.”, she called out tiredly.
"Promise.." Peter quietly echoed, and once Skylar had vanished from the vicinity, absentmindedly fixed the suit back around his shoulders, drowning in pensive silence.
'Hey. uh, can i speak to you? Alone?" She asked, walking in and standing slightly inside the room.
(@Natasha come back! Blake needs you! Blake needs something to doooo)
“Sure.”, Macha nodded, giving Ace a gentle kiss on the forehead. “Why don’t we go to our room?”, she added, walking towards the blue door.
"Ok." Sky said, following Macha into their room.
“So.”, Macha started gently. “Do you really have to go?”, she whispered sitting down in the bed.
"I.. I don't know." Skylar said defeatedly. "I was going to, but then I realized. I still have a family. Here. And my other family is going to be better if I don't go home. So I think I am going to stay. For now, anyway. But that's not the reason I came here," she said quietly. "I came to apolagize to you. I should not have yelled at you like that. You have been very kind to me. I can understand if You don't want me here anymore."
Macha resisted with all her might the urge to fling her arms around Skylar. "Of course I still want you here! Don't worry, your reaction earlier was perfectly natural. I understand." She grinned. "I'll accept your apology on one condition: That you go to the dance with Peter. And maybe kiss." Her smile softening slightly, she leaned forward to encase her friend in a warm hug. "It helps to say goodbye, even if you can't see them.", she whispered, referring to Sky's family.
"Actually.." Skylar said, grinning slightly. "I need a favor from you, too. I need a dress for the ball. And right now, too. I promised Peter He could teach me to ballroom dance. I'm meeting him in 20 minutes. Do you think you have any spare dresses?" she asked hopefully, enjoying the new feeling of excitement.
(where's Natashaaaa)
"Yesssssss!" Macha pumped her fist excitedly. "I ship you two so hard. Dani gave me the dress I'm wearing,", she said, indicating to the beautiful dress resting on the bed, "But I think Ace and Peter found their suits in the drawers in their rooms. Maybe try that one?" She pointed to a random one below the bed.
Ace walked into the room Peter was in and sat down. "Did you convince Skylar or do I have to punch you now?"
(yay you're back! The laurie/Kanoa rp is waitiiing)
Peter smiled weakly back, "I think I convinced her," he brushed off a layer of dust from the suit shoulders.
"Good. It's too bad, though, I haven't punched someone in a while." Ace leaned back on the bed and then grinned sheepishly, "Do you know how to tie a tie?" he pointed to the white tie loosely hanging around his neck, covered in the ace pattern from a deck of cards.
(Peter doens't know yet.)
"Ok!" Skylar said, jumping off the bed and landing on the floor lightly. She flung open the drawer Macha had pointed at, but it was empty. she sighed. "nope. Nothing." Out of the corner of her eye, she saw another drawer , and excitedly opened it to see a magnificent Strapless sky blue dress that swept the floor. Skylar gasped and tentatively pulled it out, pressing it against her body and staring in the mirror lovingly. "It's beautiful!" She whispered. "I'm going to try it on." Skylar disappeared in the bathroom without another word.
