**it's a kinda magic

bellamy had apparently had one too many beers at the bar tonight, as he currently found himself standing on the karaoke stage belting out the lyrics to a song that he couldn't even remember if he had chosen or not. ❝ come on, sing along with me! ❞ he called out to someone in the crowd that he had just made eye contact with. // @exitiumstarters

“No, no I’m fine sitting right here.” hazal remarked with a shake of her head as she heard the other speak. “unless you want to evacuate the bar because everyone suddenly gets ill from poor singing. but carry on..you’ve got a goodish voice.”

❝ look -- i'm gonna be real with you. ❞ hayley spoke sternly, glancing up at the person she'd been talking to. ❝ as wonderful as this little conversation has been, the only thing i really care about right now is finding my daughter, so if you can't help me with that, i'm gonna be on my way. ❞ // @exitiumstarters

“oh yes..sorry my bad. sometimes I get over excited or like brain fog or whatever the people call it.” blossom spoke, eyes resting on the other. “i would assume the compound, most people go there, it’s almost a safe haven for them all.”

blossom was out for a walk, enjoying the evening air and the pretty lights of the city. It was what drew her in into New Orleans and it was something she still enjoyed. her attention was diverted as she heard the commotion going on. the fairy was watching and almost jumped as the other spoke, a chew of her inner cheek. “I…we’ll…”she spoke, a pause for a moment as her head titled as she looked at the scene. “if no one asks me about it then I can agree that it’s yours…you don’t need to beg.” blossom paused for a moment. “but can I ask why you’re doing this?”

"Whatever lets you sleep at night." Randy said rubbing his templed. He didn't need a heckler today. "It's usually of the odd variety like this one lady who used the bayou water to make tea and got a UTI." The mayor looks at the stranger. "It's ridicoulous but as mayor you get blamed for the most innocous things."

“well thats what old people for you, they do like to do the odd things and complain about it.” henrik remarked with a small shrug of his shoulders. “well, you are partly to blame for everything, I mean look at the state of New Orleans and therefore you will get the blame, same for the senator as well.”

he listened, lips pressed against the beer bottle of his own before he took a long swig. it was amusing to hear what she had to say and he could understand it. it was easier if everyone cut the games. “oh I get it, squaring up would be a lot easier and fighting it out…although the stab to the leg probably not the best.” he remarked before he took another swig of his beer before playing it down. “and you don’t sound self-righteous, you sound like a woman who knows about the world and how she can deal with it. i admire that to be honest, not many woman like that around.”

eyes rested on him, observing. she didn’t know what it was about him but she was curious and maybe a little concerned about him in a way. “why are you on edge?” the first question she had ever asked him. “plus it didn’t hurt my feelings, it takes a lot for myself to be piss don’t whatever.”

There was a look of relief as Tarvir appeared to help her. The red shirt skirt and hair flowing as she ran towards him. "It's been better." Nova admitted. "Thank you for helping." Nova said sincerly. "How has it been since the gala?" Nova asked softly. "I hadn't been able to rech out and I'm sorry." The witch whispered with a bow.

“hey it’s okay, you know I’m always here for you.” tarvir spoke softly and he meant that, he saw nova as his daughter and always would do, no matter the distance. “i’ve been okay..busy.” He replied, a small shift of weight on the balls of his feet. “and you have nothing to apologise for. I could’ve reached out but I was busy too. We, after all are busy people too but I’m always here for you.”

she could sense he was another dragon, she was sure it was the same for him but she wouldn’t change who she was or her attitude. “I am very mature and I’m sure my family would agree.” Maybe they would but that was a different story they were family after all. “plus elders always have a different idea of what maturity is.”

For a second Davina assessed the hostility and then brushed it off altogether. "I did apologize," she reminded simply. "It's kind of easy to be overwhelmed in this city I think." That and the whirlwind of being back home was a little more taxing than expected.

“not really, I mean there is nothing overwhelming at all.” she snapped with a roll of her eyes for a brief moment, trying to figure out what Kevin was was driving her crazy. “just watch we’re you going cause if it was a hunter or a crazy bitch then they may not be so nice.”

"Everyone says that... until they aren't." he pointed out - of course that was just his experience. "It doesn't matter now... okay... don't worry about it." Levi stated.

"maybe that goes for you but i am fine, emotions are for the weak and i personally am always fine." carmen remarked as she watched the other for a moment. "well if you are sure, don't want you to say i didn't help at all."

Aaron watched the other and sighed a little. "Uh sorry... I didn't mean to be so snappy... just had a rough few days... and well one of the people I want to talk to can just listen.." he assured her. He shook his head before looking down the row. "Oh I'm sorry... and now I'm a jerk that shouted at you in a graveyard when you see your family or friends..." he admitted. "I mean your other... not your friend..." he sighed "sorry.."

"it's fine, i understand that but you know i always believe that they are with us some how, they will give you a sign of an answer." hazal spoke with a small shrug of her shoulders. "it's fine and i get what you mean, they will always be my friend..i have a few here. but you know, it will get better. takes time but the pain will go away not completely but enough to make the day bearable."

"no, no, he's fine." sabrina spoke as she looked at the other, a small smile forming on her lips. "plus he is harmless.. don't want to break that small ego he has, now can we."

"I mean, endless champagne just to model dresses for their clients," Raquel retorts. "Sounds like a good deal to me."

"nah, it sounds restrictive and as if your giving into the idea of marriage." god, the thought of that was giving goergie hives. "i mean, if you fancy selling your soul to a wedding dress place then do that..but honestly, i'd rather step of lego."

It was exhausting constantly defending herself, defending the things she did, and her patience was starting to become very much nonexistent. Fear was the last thing she had ever wanted to instill in others and yet they pushed and pushed until that was all that remained to use. As her sister spoke again, a cold, dark laugh eased from the blonde's lips, head shaking as a hard set look fell on the other witch. "I act like the villain because I am given no other choice," Everleigh retorts sharply. "Because you and Dex and everybody else need someone to put all the blame on but the truth is Sabrina- You're all fucking cowards. I do the things that are necessary whether they're morally acceptable or not because this is more than just us it's an entire world, entire community of people. One loss is better than an entire supernatural eradication. I'm sorry that I'm not perfect and pristine. I'm sorry that I'm not the definition of perfect but you know what, Sabrina? At least I can say that I tried my best, that I did everything I could regardless of how it ends. I aligned myself with them because infiltrating them is our best chance and the only way that we stay once step ahead of them." There's a roll of cerulean hues, a scoff falling from her lips as her palms remained flat against the tabletop. "Oh quit with the stupid, naive act, Sabrina," thewitch snaps. "This is war, bloodshed is inevitable for both sides regardless of the dead that I've brought back but by bringing the dead back I also brought back some of our biggest and most crucial allies. The Mikaelson's. Open your eyes. What I'm doing is nothing even remotely close to what the OEA is doing." There's a low growl that rises in Everleigh's chest, palms rising to slam firmly against the table once more to silence the younger Lewis sister. "Marni is anything but stupid," she spat. "She understands, she agrees, she sees the entire picture that we are creating and one day when I am no longer to lead our coven, it will be hers and she will be a hell of a leader because she knows what needs to be done for the greater good of everybody."

she just listened, maybe this is what was meant to happen to them, maybe life had decided that the pair had to part ways. that they had to see each other as more of an enemy than friends. “maybe you are right, maybe I am a coward, maybe I should’ve grown up and became a fighter but that would have never been me.” no emotion in her tone, hands wiping her tears away from her eyes. maybe, just maybe life wanted to make them enemies from now on. she just listened, taking in ever word that her sister had to say and this is why everleigh was always going to be the leader, she could do everything that had to be done, she wasn’t soft in the head, a disappointment like Sabrina was. “you are perfect, perfect in your own way, in the way they wanted you to be. maybe they knew that mind if yours would go on to do some amazing things. you are perfect and pristine in the covens eyes because you will do what’s needed. I’m not, i’m not the perfect one and I’m not trying to make you a a villain, you never will be one in my eyes…I just cannot do what’s expected of me. you, sister, will always be perfect in my eyes and maybe if i was more like you, had a killer instinct or..I don’t know, a way to close of the guilt then I would’ve stayed.” all the maybes running through her mind,. she was broken and she knew that their parents would be looking down on sabrina with disgust because she had chosen the side with the monsters rather than her own sister. “and i know I’m naive and stupid and yes there would be blood but i cant just shut off who I am, my feelings. it ate me up everyone I helped sacrificed, felt like my soul was breaking each time and i had to stop, had to become me. to stop that guilt from drowning me. i can now look in the mirror and feel..somewhat normal. And yes, you may have the Mikaelsons on side right now, but how long until they turn their back on you? We know they can’t all be trusted, the only one I would probably trust is henrik but then again, he grew up with us and maybe some of the kids but the oldies…don’t trust them.” sabrina warned, although she knew her sister was the smart one. the slamming of palms against the table made Sabrina jump in her seat. “i know she’s not stupid, I know she will make an excellent leader, I think our parents knew that and it’s why the focused so much on you two..maybe they somehow predicted all of this.” Maybe it was why they allowed her to be so soft.

"That's news." Kevin said, not sure what to say. There was relief and confusion. Kevin squeezed the hand back gently as if it was the last hand he'll ever hold. Was it infatuation or was it trauma bringing him closer to Georgie-truthfully he never know.

she was a little taken aback that the other trusted her but hell, she would take it. georgie was far from trusting but she guessed she could trust the other a little bit. hearing what he said, a long sigh escaped her lips for a moment. "i mean...maybe you're not, i don't have the answers as i'm not a walking fucking wikipedia." she spoke, a slight roll of her eyes.

Chocolate irises narrowed dangerously in the girl's direction as arms folded over his chest, mirroring her own actions. "And I'm telling you that this area is off limits," Valentina countered, tone sharp. "There's still an ongoing investigation so I'd suggest moving it along. Alleyways aren't safe for pretty little things like you anyways, do you know of the dangers that lurk in dark?"

most people would back off, seeing the narrowing of the others eyes but then again, hazal wasn't one of those people. she never backed away from danger, she had to thank the wolf side of that as she was sure if she was full fairy she would just do as she was told. "well, maybe you should put some signs up." she retorted, taking a step closer to the other. "and i know the dangers that lurk in the dark although i have a feeling the danger would be different for both of us." the brunette remarked as her arms remained folded. "and i will walk where i want, as i said, put a sign up or something then i may pay attention."
