dead end. there's nowhere left to run; the sender has cornered you at last. anonymous. disguising your voice, you call the sender to threaten/warn them. loose ends. you thought you killed them! but there's the sender, walking your way. ashtray. your cigarette smokes as you extinguish it on the sender's skin. deck. you lick the sender's blood from your knuckles, still stinging from the punch. backstab. end of the road, pal—you reveal you're double-crossing the sender. blunt. hidden in the shadows, you press your gun to the sender's back.

heel. you stare at the sender from across the room and beckon them to you. fix. not looking like that—disapproving, you fix the sender's appearance. tilt. you take the sender's chin in your hand and make them meet your gaze. staccato. irritated, the sender drums their fingers against you beneath the table. listen. the sender disobeys and you swat their curious hand away. fasten. just something i picked up—you clasp a necklace/tie/etc. on the sender. quiet. you press a finger to the sender's lips and tell them to be patient.

Lowkey think I'm a little burned out at the moment, so tentatively placing all of my blogs on semi hiatus until the end of August. I don't really envision much if any writing being done until then, but I will still be around to reblog things and generally be active in all other respects + will still 100% be around for plotting/chatting/etc :)

Ailani was here with Jill and Claire - apparently, the pair had some sort of shared history with the spy. She'd decided to go this one alone, though. Ada probably wouldn't take well to being accosted by their little trio, and she could understand that much. Ailani took a seat at the table, but she pushed the glass towards the other.

A light hum escaped her as the other refused. Crimson wine was poured into only one glass, crystal shimmering in its cage of intricately carved steel, and held carefully in a single hand as Ada took her own seat opposite the other.

Ailani Ka'ana'ana might not have the legendary status behind her name like several other B.S.A.A operatives, but that didn't make her any less valuable to the organization. The spy already had a decent idea as to the purpose of their arrival, but it couldn't hurt to entertain a conversation.

"And here I thought you were with the tour."
