He had plans, and ideas for how this transition could be easier for himself, but it was easier said than done to get things to fall into place. The young Aurazin felt as if he'd only just really begun living when he had died, but then after he trained to be a Shepherd, he thought he had it all figured out again, finally letting himself feel at ease and accept his life for what it was, but now that they'd been cast from their home, Damarco felt as if he maybe just wasn't meant to be happy for too long.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Before Damarco died, he had been stationed in Afghanistan as an EOD, and perfected his job, finally loving the life he was living. As a Shepherd, Damarco felt like things finally made sense again. Now? He had no idea. It was painful to see the others struggling with the fear of the unknown, and wondering if they'd ever return home. So far, the Aspects hadn't been able to provide anything that the Aurazins didn't already know, and Damarco found himself slowly slipping into a state of sadness. He felt grief-stricken by current events and needed an outlet, which was what led him to the rooftop to watch the sunset. Marco always found solace in watching the sunset, even before he died, he would lie on the sandy ground at base and watch the sunset every evening until it became a ritual.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The noise across from him caused Damarco to jolt upward, and when he stood, the Aurazin noticed another of his kind climbing onto the roof. Perhaps she had the same idea as he did and just needed a moment to herself, and what better way to do that than to watch the sunset? Hesitantly but surely, the male Aurazin approached her and sat right beside her, offering a charming smile in her direction as his feet dangled over the gutters of the roof. "Here for the view as well?" he asked curiously before averting his gaze to look at the sky. "It's something else, isn't it? The sunset I mean" he added and sighed softly to himself before proceeding. "How are you? I don't think we've properly met yet" Damarco was sure he'd seen her a few times after the Aurazin's gathered at the manor for the first time, but as far as speaking, he hadn't had the chance yet.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">"I'm Damarco" he then said, figuring since his last name was such a mouthful, he'd just leave this on a<a href="https://46.media.tumblr.com/7e69b355693a0d6ca8e0101922447212/tumblr_inline_p3c6pd1ss11vxephr_250.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://46.media.tumblr.com/7e69b355693a0d6ca8e0101922447212/tumblr_inline_p3c6pd1ss11vxephr_250.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-right"/></a> first name basis. Marco was typically very playful and outgoing, and he was a ball of energy 24/7, but the sadness of not getting to go home, had drained all of his best qualities right out of him, and truth be told, the Aurazin was in need of some fun. "Were you on a mission when everything happened?" as an Aurazin, that was just one of the most common ways to keep a conversation going with the others right now, plus, Damarco was naturally a very very curious guy, and not only did he ask tons of questions and remain hyper about everything he said, but he also touched everything he saw, minus people.</p> A Garden to Grow (Lucien and Ommin)tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-04-12:6610746:Topic:4045642020-04-12T00:40:20.611Z✓ Lucien Davenport ~Admin~https://eternalcityrp.com/profile/LucienDavenport

His eyes were beginning to strain and he could feel that weakness of hunger begin to pang in his stomach. How strange it was to have human needs. It would be a lie to say that he didn't enjoy the taste of food again, but he could do without the grumbling that came with being hungry. Luke hadn't eaten all day and he supposed now would be a good time as any to finally get something in his stomach, now that the words on the pages were beginning to blur. He couldn't be sure if the oncoming headache was from the lack of food or the intensive research he was going through for the answers that would not come. Perhaps both.</p>
<p>As he stood, he felt the muscles in his body give a much needed stretch from having been seated all day. The coffee mug that was sitting on the wooden top had gone cold and he couldn't be sure how many cups he'd had. Luke had gotten up when the sky was just beginning to turn the brighter colors of dawn and as he looked out the window now and towards the sun which was hanging high, his eyes fell on the gardens. There was a woman he didn't know very well, but was thankful in ways that she was there at the lodge with the rest of his kind.</p>
<p>Lucien walked towards the front door, his boots causing for the creaking noises over the wood floor, and turned the knob. The warmth of the sun was pleasant as he stepped out onto the massive porch and began walking down the steps. He was careful to avoid stepping on rows of vegetables and other plants he couldn't quite readily name. The weather was beginning to finally warm and spring was blooming. It seemed at least that was on their side when it came to helping provide for themselves. That and a little magical help from Malva Ailward.</p>
<p>"Miss Ambrosio," he said in greeting to the woman's back as she was kneeling down to tend to one of her plants. Lucien could see her jump and he quickly stepped back and bowed slightly to her. Old habits died hard and he had a feeling that many of the customary things of his time when he was alive would never truly fade away. "I'm terribly sorry. I did not mean to startle you."</p> Mountain Mishap (Artemitra + Jay)tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-01-23:6610746:Topic:3985282020-01-23T18:52:19.831Z✓ Artemitra Astrid Bluemoonhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/ArtemitraBluemoon

One of the Celestial’s favorite time of the year. There was always something about the colder weather that made Artemitra, want to snuggle up with a hot cocoa, near the fire-place or enjoy having fun in the snow. With the snow storms, finally calming down for a while. Artemis had decided to venture up to the mountains for a little wintery adventure. She could use a little time up in the mountains, to try and clear her head. Plus, she always wanted to venture up there in the winter-time, to take some stunning shots for her photography collection.</p>
<p>It took her a few moments to dress up warmly, warm jeans, leg warmers, boots, long sleeved t-shirt, with a jumper, winter coat, accompanied with a hat, gloves and a scarf. In her bag, she packed a few snacks, her camera, and a spare battery for her camera. Just in case, her camera would be running low whilst on her exploring adventure. It was something she always did, when taking her camera with her. Better to be safe than sorry, with her battery dying out on assignments. After she was ready. The Brunette left the Celestial Castle, before heading out to her car. It was a long walk to the mountains, so she decided to drive nearer to the territory, as it was safer; than getting lost in the city during the process. The drive there was quite nice.Seeing the city covered in snow.</p>
<p>When the Celestial got closer to the mountains, she found a parking spot at the base of the mountains. It seemed like other people parked there often, as she saw recent tire tracks, near her spot. Getting out of the car. The Celestial made sure, it was properly locked.Her bag slung over her shoulder...before she began to treck up the mountain in the snow. Her boots crunching against the snowy ground.</p>
<p>The air was crisp and fresh, the higher up she got. But everything looked so peaceful, so beautiful. But luckily, <a href="https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/256xn/p06vc4mq.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/256xn/p06vc4mq.jpg?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-right"/></a>she was dressed warmly; so she couldn’t complain about the cold temperature. Taking her camera out of her bag. The Celestial started it up. Without really noticing, her extra camera battery was tangled up in the camera strap, as she was fiddling with her technology...the camera dropped somewhere into the snow, without her knowing. The Celestial soon started to take photos of the wonderful views and natural beauty, in the wintery environment. The young Celestial heard light grumbling near-by. She wondered what the sound was. Looking through the thickness of some trees...she saw two young bear cubs playing in a clearing a few metres away from her. Her heart melting at the adorable scene. Being quiet as possible...the Celestial got a little bit closer to the tree line. Taking a few photos of the bears. Capturing the shots, in it’s beauty. It was one of those rare moments, she had to take photos off.</p>
<p>Luckily the bears were distracted enough that they didn’t notice her. After she was done taking photos. She ventured further upwards.</p> Shadow Mystery (Julian & Siobhan)tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-01-19:6610746:Topic:3977992020-01-19T15:41:36.570Z✓ Julian Nathaniel Lockharthttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Life

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">With his eyes trained on his bow that was placed neatly in the vintage casing from inside the glass cabinet, he pursed his lips lightly before getting up from his seat and went over to the glass. Retracing his finger as he loomed over it, the angel child unlocked the cabinet with a single flick. There, the beautifully intricate bow stood majestically alongside a quiver of about a dozen arrows arranged neatly. Sparing a few brief glances over to his mahogany desk that was filled with different colored files and documents scattering around, making a mess out of it, he hummed to himself while trying to tell that an hour out wouldn't hurt.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> It was a stent in his workaholic self, but even he needed a break sometimes. He's immortal sure, but he's not expandable, for sure. There was only so much a person could take, anyways. That includes the mental just as well as their physical was involved. Deciding against his own will on insisting to stay back and finish his work, Julian wrapped his fingers around the bow and dragged both the quiver and that with him as he closed the door to the cabinet before making his way out. He didn't forget to grab his car keys and jacket, because the cold didn't faze well with him as it does with a few. He's a bird, angel, or yeah, sure, but he's not immune to weather or climate change. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once he got his engine revved up and ready to go, he sped off the compound and drove his way to the woods, a<a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1012343920?profile=RESIZE_710x" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1012343920?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="200" class="align-right"/></a> rather restricted place he would be able to hunt at. He's heard of the therianthropes, and he doubt he'd miss anything that resembles one. Regardless of it, he'll be mindful. After parking his car at the left side of the road, he clasped on his quiver around him and brushed his fingers against the bow. While trudging through the greenery scene, he found himself humming a lullaby to himself, a hymn, until he eventually spot a perfect place for him to direct his target on. Obviously, Julian's nephilim senses were a bit rusty when he noticed a presence within the woods. He could think of a few things.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> First, he wasn't alone. Two, his luck came by and there was something to hunt. Three, he might be able to increase his agility. The dark haired male got out one arrow and notched it on his bowstring before slowly tugging on it. While adjusting the string just below his eye and cheek level, he lets out a small exhale as he lets the arrow fly by towards the intended target that turned out to be a deer. It was then when he realized he heard howling and hooting from another direction which made him contemplate whether he should go and check it out or not. The last time he did that, he found himself trapped in a booby trap laid by the infamous vigilante, Scarlett Archer. But she turns out to be a rather amusing character. What if someone was in need of help, could he really turn his head away? Cursing internally, the Nephilim went to inspect where the source of the voice came from. </span></p> Modern Day Robin Hood (Wade and Willow)tag:eternalcityrp.com,2019-12-28:6610746:Topic:3960662019-12-28T22:13:57.650Z✓ Willow Eleonora Braelyndhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Eleonora

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Christmas has already come and gone so quickly like it’s never even been. With New Years just around the corner, the Celestial Castle was still in full swing of celebrations. including the partying, just really any excuse to drink the days away without being judged. Willow was now already tired from it all, thinking soon maybe she’d go to stay with her brother at his ranch. With how Leigh decided to have the book shop closed the day after christmas so people can enjoy all the festive activities but she knew it was just a way for them both to have some days off since it was mostly just the two of them running the shop. So it was always hard for either of them to decide when they wanted time off around the same time. Willow enjoyed her job at the bookshop place for her to escape where nobody knew of her past for who or what she was. Her happy place in a way surrounded by things she loves the most, books. Willow spent the last few days cooped up in her room reading some of the new books she was given over christmas. Spending most days after christmas the same but it wasn’t much different to what she does in her spare time if truth be told. Willow always loved Christmas, everything about it. Always been about family, more so now with how most Celestials all live with each other. Feeling like a big family all together once more but this time around their all safe and protected. Without the worry of being locked up or something bad happening to anyone. Hoping that next year everything will be working out her way looking to get her mental health on better track without needing to bottle it all in. Putting on a brave face so that nobody would see how she’s still struggling to cope with everything that happened to her and other celestials. </span></p>

Along with having their own wine cellar, fully equipped all with the important necessities Walking down the hallway she felt herself bumping into something or someone. Making her nearly spill her drink and smash the glass in the process. “Oh no” She gasped a little already saddened by her drink being lost. “I’ll clean it up” Already too worried about the mess not looking up to who she’d bumped in to. When she did Willow looked to someone she didn’t recognise but noticed from the glowing of his skin he was like her a celestial. Ticking off not an intruder on her list. “Wait, who are you?” Looking confused, raising her brows almost trying to think had she missed him walking around the manor since she was mostly good at knowing people and faces. Still Willow was blinded till she noticed on the ground in front of her was more than a broken glass and spilled alcohol. Noticing brand new expensive watches and necklaces. Making Willow look even more confused at the mysterious celestial.</span></p> From One Diviner To Another (Audrina and Kaelyn)tag:eternalcityrp.com,2019-12-15:6610746:Topic:3950302019-12-15T22:49:53.813Z✓ Damarco Vineyardhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/StarStruck

From the moment Audrina turned eighteen, she had been feeling a pull towards the Diviner coven. And, for as long as she could remember, she had been resisting and fighting that pull. She had never wanted anything to do with the political side of things in the supernatural world. As a royal, she just wanted to live her life the way she pleased, and that meant quite the opposite of following political rules. But, Audrina couldn't refuse the pull she felt any longer. It suffocated the young Diviner sometimes, to a point where she couldn't function in her normal daily tasks. With a soft sigh, the blonde Diviner showered, and dressed herself, which was rare. She enjoyed all the luxury that her last name had given her, but having people dress you and bath you, at times, was a little bit more than she could bare. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The maid was in the kitchen fixing a breakfast big enough to feed an army, and it made Audrina feel even more alone. Maybe going to the Coven house wasn't a bad idea after all. She had no friends, because everyone steered clear of a Kensington at all costs. At the very least, she could gain a few fiends within her own faction. But, she was still hesitant, and she damn sure wouldn't rush into giving them her full, undevided trust. After calling her mother to inform her of her plans for the day, Audrina headed down stairs and sat at the table, which was already stocked with wine, and a plate full of fruit and breakfast foods. She gave her maid an appreciative smile before quickly devouring her food.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">After she finished, she left her dishes on the table for Dorothy to clean up and headed into the living room, grabbing a gift she'd gotten for her maid above the mantle. "For all your hard work" she gave a nod, and bright smile. Audrina had bought her a jewelry set, and paid for a spa day. "The spa will see you whenever you have time to go" she added, before dismissing herself, petting her terrier on the way to the front door, where two guards constantly sat for her protection. She wasn't famous, but having the last name she had, meant she needed that protection. There would always be a threat just simply by being a part of her family, and at times, she admittedly wanted out.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The Diviner sighed as Ruben, her driver, opened a door for her. "Where to today Miss Kensington?" he asked politely as she climbed in, and waited for him to shut her door and do the same. Audrina sat in the back seat, because Ruben had always had eyes for her, but it was normal at this point, and it no longer made her feel awkward. She had made it quite clear that they could never be more than 'friends' even if she had shared a night or two with him just to defy what her family thought was best for her. "To the Rriver Banks please.." she trailed off with a look of dread on her features, one that Ruben caught quickly enough. "You're doing the right thing Audrina, you know you have to" Ruben never held back expressing his concerns for her, and while it often frustrated the young Diviner, she had to realize that sometimes, people were looking out for her best interests.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The drive over to Diviner territory didn't take long. And, as Audrina stepped out after having her door re-opened for her, she gave a thankful nod at Ruben and waited for him to leave before walking up to the Coven house. As she gave the door bell a ring, her heart began racing out of her chest. She hated this, but the feeling that something was pulling her here, for the first time, had went away. She didn't feel such a pull and it made sense that she needed to be here now. When someone answered the door, Audrina gave a nervous smile. "I'm here to see Kaelyn" she stated simply, and followed the male who answered the door.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">She couldn't help but feel nervous. This had been something she never even wanted. But, she also felt<a href="https://data.whicdn.com/images/252482071/original.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://data.whicdn.com/images/252482071/original.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-right"/></a> a sense of relief. She finally felt as if she was where she was supposed to be after fighting it for so long. When a red head came just within her view, Audrina swallowed harshly. She normally wasn't nervous. Royals could never show a sign of nervousness in front of crowds, but this one singular woman before her, definitely made her feel a little uneasy.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">"Kaelyn?" she called out, and waited to see what would unfold from this meeting.</p>

And, while they had given off some pretty strong romantic vibes together, Hana hadn't stopped herself from flirting with each of them. Though, Hana admittedly shoved most of her attention to Jae, she had found Han to be a pretty humble guy, and enjoyed the few moments she'd spoken to him. The three of them had planned on meeting up again at a later date, seperately of course. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hana had just finished her shift at the INN when she pulled her phone out to text him. "I'm bored, so if you're not doing anything, we can hang out today" she then pressed send, and used one of the motel rooms to change out of her work uniform and into something more casual, but warm. The weather had changed dramtically since the spookfest. Though it wasn't entirely warm that night, it definitely hadn't been as cold as it was now. Hana emerged from the room dressed in a pair of black skinny jeans, a red polo sweater, red and white polo sneakers, and her hair straight down her back. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">After walking out of the INN, she stood by the sidewalk to wait on a cab. She was rather excited to see Han again. The way he presented as completely shy, was simply adorable, for whatever reason, she liked shy guys. Leigh had been the same way. and when he finally struck up a conversation with her as they waited for Ha-joon to return, she found that she actually enjoyed his company. She knew Han would be a lot harder to get to open up, because he seemed to have more courage with Jae by his side, but that was fine by Hana, she didn't mind being patient. If this should bloom into a decent friendship, then she had nothing to complain about. Besides, good friendships never started off great at first. Taking proper time to get to know someone, was how Hana did things anyways. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The cab driver seemed to be in a hurry, and frankly scared the shit out of Hana getting her to the park in one piece. "I shouldn't pay you a penny for that ride. You could have killed me!" she said in a dramatic tone, but handed him the money for the ride anyways, and sighed as he sped away. "Idiot" she grumbled to herself, but lit up a little when she saw Han on a bench, seemingly busy drawing a picture of something, lost in a world of his own. "Aren't you freezing?" she asked with a raised brow before sitting down beside him and stuffing her hands in her pockets. "If it gets too cold we can go get hot chocolate" she offered, figuring it would be a good way to start her day. Her shifts at the INN were usually long, because if Thaddeus wasn't there, she had no one to talk to besides the people renting rooms, and they rarely ever came out of their rooms. Often times, she had to wear earphones to block out the noise that came from the couples rooms. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">"So the Spookfest. That happened" she giggled cutely, and offered him a faint smile. "It definitely didn't seem like your scene though". For Hana to be the outgoing one among the two of them, she had to admit, she felt shy as fuck all of a sudden and knew she'd struggle for a bit until they got to talking, or found something to do during their little hang out session. "Thanks for meeting me though. I didn't think I could convince you" she added, giggling softly as she tried to glance over to his book. "You like to draw?" she then asked curiously, finding it intriguing that he had a talent for it. As shy as he seemed though, it made sense. It didn't take any kind of social skills to be an artist, in fact, most of the artists she'd met were the quiet, stay to themselves type of people. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">She imagined that Jae had been the spontaneous one of the two of them, and that it's the only reason<a href="https://thumbs.gfycat.com/SpeedyEasyAlabamamapturtle-size_restricted.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://thumbs.gfycat.com/SpeedyEasyAlabamamapturtle-size_restricted.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-right" width="302" height="302"/></a> he had even came to the spookfest. Hana pulled her phone out, and scrolled through the images she got of the spookfest, showing Han the screen with a smirk on her face as she finalyl came to the picture she managed to get of him and Jae. It had actually turned out to be adorable, Han was smiling at Jae, and Jae was looking out into the distance, almost posing without even realizing he was on camera. "I'll send it to you in a text" she stated, smiling faintly. "The two of you seem really close" she added, and crossed one leg over the other before looking out into the distance, analyzing the scenery and enjoying the beauty of the outdoors. </span></p> When You Went Away (Baptiste and Jason)tag:eternalcityrp.com,2019-11-12:6610746:Topic:3914692019-11-12T04:39:40.709Z✓ Baptiste "Owl" Dupuishttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Elijah

Baptiste rarely slept as it was due to the nightmares he'd had ever since Roseline and Noe trapped him and held him captive for years. For a long time after getting his freedom back, every time he closed his eyes, it was their faces he saw. So, for a long time after realizing that, Baptiste did whatever he could to keep himself awake. And, he guessed it had kinda royally screwed him from ever sleeping properly again. He was lucky to get a ten minute power nap these days. The rain tapping the tin roof top helped him rest his eyes just for a little while, but just like any other time, closing his eyes meant revisiting things he didn't want to. Tonight he'd been thinking about Jason, and the memory began the same way it always did.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Baptiste could see Jason's eyes close as he was taking his very last breath. The feeling of doom that Bap had felt on that elevator, knowing he'd either have to turn Jason, or let him go as he died, was something the Valkyr still felt to this day. Baptiste heaved as he began breathing heavily, and pouring sweat. It was as if he'd gotten stuck in that memory each time he relived it. His hands clenched the sheets tightly enough to rip them a little, and his body tensed so much that it hurt. Still, that moment played without skipping a beat in his head. He even saw Jason's smile, the last moment he was with him. How betrayed he felt when he returned to an empty apartment later that day, but also how scared he was to realize Jason's belongings were still in place. He wasn't sure if Jason had left him, or if something had happened to Jason, and both thoughts revolved around the fact that Baptiste had literally only just turned him. Being out there alone as a newbie, scared Baptiste, he knew Jason had struggled with blood lust, and Baptiste was helping him through it, but the day Jason disappeared, was the day that Bap got his first taste of blood lust as well. Baptiste had went out that night to drink and forget about how incredibly fucked up he felt, when he met another Valkyr named Koona, who'd shown him how to let go, and in doing so, Baptiste ended up killing someone by accident. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Slamming his fist into the mattress, the Valkyr got to his feet, and treaded to the bathroom, gripping each side of the counter as he looked into the mirror, someone he couldn't recognize staring back at him. He was lost, and had no idea where to go, what to do, or who to trust. He'd only met one or two other people lately that didn't make him feel completely beside himself. 1: Sunmin. Whatever it was about the Celestial, made Baptiste want to protect and help him, but he also really enjoyed Sunmin's company, and had planned on getting him to stick with Baptiste for as long as he would. Though, he knew that wouldn't come without struggle. 2: Lydia. While he didn't know jack about her except for how flawless and perfect she seemed when putting the weight of her fist into a punching bag, there seemed to be something about her, that the Valkyr couldn't leave alone. Aside from those two? Baptiste was pretty isolated, and didn't mind. Jason had either betrayed him, or something bad had happened to him, and it was much easier to assume he betrayed Bap. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">After getting himself together, and collecting his thoughts, the Valkyr stood underneath his shower head, letting boiling hot water, work his tensed muscles until he felt satisfied enough to get out. Dripping his way back to the bedroom, Baptiste threw a black tank top on, a black polo sweater, faded red and black jeans, his grunge boots, and a leather jacket, topping it off with his grunge boots. For whatever reason, he had to go to the castle today. Baptiste had only ever been called over when one of the othe Valkyr's needed some guidance. And, since he knew that wasn't the case, he couldn't help but feel a little rattled up inside. His nerves simply making him nauseated. The weather had changed dramtically since the last time he had saw Jason, and as the frigid cold wind made contact with the Valkyr, he couldn't help but frown. Was Jason somewhere cold and dark, starved and scared? He would have done anything, just to know he was okay. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Feeling his blood boil to those thoughts yet again, Baptiste sped off on his bike, arriving to the castle within a matter of moments from where he resided. For what seemed like ages, he stood outside the castle doors, pacing back and fourth. A guard had finally approached him however, asking if he was okay once they realized who he was. Baptiste nodded, and forced a smile "I'm fine. Just here to see Gideon" he said simply, but in a gentle tone. Baptiste had always been humble, but lately everything with Elias, then with Jason.. he didn't know how much longer he could hold onto that humble side of himself. He had finalyl worked up the courage to go inside, where he discovered it wasn't Gideon he was meeting at all. He could sense him from a mile away, his scent enveloping Baptiste and spinning him inside out. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">"Bloody hell. I shouldn't be here" he breathed out heavily. Baptiste refused to take one more step through this castle. He'd walked far enough apparently, because he was sure Jason was here somewhere. But then, what did that mean? HE had been here all along? The thought of that completely enraged Baptiste, and with that, he'd stormed on through the castle, finding himself standing in the very room the scent came from. Baptiste blinked several times, coughing as he found himself choked up by the person before him. Blinded by rage, Baptiste reacted the only way he knew how, when he blurred over to the blonde Valkyr, and pinned him to the wall. "Tell me why!" he shouted at him, hitting the wall, just beside his face. "After everything!" he then added, no longer using his hands to pin the blonde, only using the weight of his own body, to avoid trapping him in place. He knew all to well what being captive felt like. But, as mad as he was, he knew how dangerous he would become if he didn't distance himself, which wouldn't happen either, because he needed answers. He needed them now. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Baptiste's nostrils flared as his hands flexed into fists, while he stared into those mesmorizing blue eyes<a href="https://66.media.tumblr.com/f4d85a47c3762747d82e344a6e72efed/tumblr_inline_nvoom96U6g1tydw0x_250.gifv" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://66.media.tumblr.com/f4d85a47c3762747d82e344a6e72efed/tumblr_inline_nvoom96U6g1tydw0x_250.gifv?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-right"/></a> of his, his own dark optics full of hurt and confusion. "Go ahead, take all the time you need. I'm not going anywhere" he finished off, and averted his gaze. He couldn't even look at him right now. Whatever had happened to Jason, Baptiste was more than willing to hear about, but God help him if he admitted that after everything, he just up and left Baptiste. He couldn't help but shake the look on Jason's face though, and knew him like the back of his hand. Haunted. That was the word that came to mind when he looked at him. If someone had hurt Jason, .. No, he couldn't think that way. Baptiste features had suddenly lit up with a sinister smirk as he waited for Jason to speak. He would kill someone over Jason to this day, and it scared him not knowing what the other Valkyr was about to say. </p> Mistaken Identity (Open to Ray Herald and Samira Youngtag:eternalcityrp.com,2019-11-11:6610746:Topic:3911982019-11-11T14:03:40.975Z✓ Ray Heraldhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/JoeDiamond676

The lost years. Ones that you could get never get back even how much you wish you could. Just the way things work. To either accept and move on or try to stay stuck in the past. Willow tried her best to make up for the years that she missed after being locked up. Whether it be reading up all that's happened in the last decade. Updating her style or clothing or keeping up with technology. All different things she could do to try to fit in at least. A coping mechanism in a way. Willow thought she was all alone, with her brother Elias bailing on her first chance he could. Leaving her alone with her suffering. Till she made a decision to do something about it rather than waiting for anyone to save her by herself. Looking up and finding different places there were in the city with group meetings. Ones that were there for people looking for support with strangers. With how she couldn’t exactly look for medicine assistance in that type of way, being supernatural and all. During her months of going to support groups she had found friendship with one person. Emily. A kind and caring person. Who wasn’t concerned into talking about their own deep down problems after the meeting is finished. They didn’t look at anyone differently.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A couple months after meeting Willow was the first to know about the mysterious man who Emily was seeing. A doctor but one who now was based down in the morgue than with medical emergencies. It wasn't too long for Willow to figure out who it was, a fellow Celestial Rashesh. They didn’t know each other too well coming from the same group of Celestials who were locked up but knew of each other. Willow wasn’t one to judge or tell others of people’s secret. That wasn’t who she was, knowing that it's supernatural number one rule not to expose themselves to humans. To let him tell Emily when he’s ready. Back then Willow found herself tagging along like a third wheel with them at times but not letting it on that her and Rashesh knew each other. Willow could see how they were happy with each other and that was all that mattered. When Emily disappeared, Willow was devastated one of her only friends was gone. It was all mysterious, all of Emily things and belongings were still there. Yet she was gone, like she disappeared without a trace. Both her and Rashesh spent two full days searching the city high and low for Emily in hopes to find her but it is no use. She was gone. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://66.media.tumblr.com/da93564d1628aea08e0d6986c5372833/tumblr_inline_oi7unfbvS41rifr4k_500.gif" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://66.media.tumblr.com/da93564d1628aea08e0d6986c5372833/tumblr_inline_oi7unfbvS41rifr4k_500.gif?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-right"/></a>After a while with Emily gone she stopped going to the meetings for them not to turn into ones to make sure she was okay with Emily’s disappearance. Trying to move on with her life. Finding something else to keep herself busy. In a way her job job at the bookshop helped to save herself. Both from insanity and from herself. Willow was surprised to hear rumors of Rashesh seeing someone else. Apparently from the rumor mill floating around it was an Ailward Aspect. Practically seeing the enemy. It hurt Willow to think that he was moving on too quickly from Emily and it to be someone who played a part in their locking up. All messed up. Willow decided to go and see if it was all true. Straight from the horse's mouth as the saying goes. Deciding to go to Rashesh’s apartment, hoping it was one of his days off. Not knowing if he was or not working. Still remembering which apartment was his as he was one of the Celestials who decided they didn’t want to live in Castle together wanting their own space. For her she felt that she was safer surrounded by others. Finding herself outside of Rashesh’s apartment knocking at his door all ready with questions looking for answers. Even if she was the only one who was still thinking about Emily these days.</span></p>
