magically

Constant physical activity was something that had become as much a natural part of Erin’s day-to-day as sleeping and breathing…actually, it was probably more so than the sleeping. She needed a means for the energy that would accumulate within her to be used up or else control over herself while in her full Nahual form would be none existent. It was a lesson learned early on, and one that she never forgot. As such, she wasted little time in finding the gym on the island and setting to mapping out a routine as she scoped out the equipment.

The voice jarred her out of her thought process for a moment, but she managed a small smile at the jest. “Well, as it turns out, I have a great gift for multitasking,” she said. “Make of that what you will.”

luna grew up being attacked by monsters pretty much her whole life, at least once her step-father left her mom for a younger woman. which meant that luna had to learn how to fight and protect both her and her mother from whatever may try to attack her for being half god. and while most people saw this island is as a wonderful vacation, for luna she knew that she couldn’t get too comfortable with this island since at any moment a monster could arrive and attack her. and the demigod needed to be prepared for it potentially happening. 

luna chuckled softly at her answer. “i can understand that, i can go great at multitasking too.” she replied to the woman.

     ‘ i think it might have something to do with my depth perception, ’ he paused bringing his hand up to gesture to his eyes, ‘ i don’t think my contact prescription is super solid. ’ either way, he was up for something that would get him out of his own head. ‘ if it became such a routine for you i’m surprised you lasted two weeks with out it. it’s been a bit since i’ve gone running so i know the feeling. ’

“don’t worry about it, i’m make sure not to throw the ball at your head or anywhere that may hurt you too bad.” the girl chuckled softly. jasmine was just happy to finally be able to do something that she did back at home. the thing about the island having the perfect weather and temperature meant that it could be outdoor sports everyday all day, and jasmine was super happy for that. “i am surprised too, but there is a lot to do on this island and it’s not really that fun to shoot the ball around by yourself.”

The young man wore a smile as listened to the music, but he pulled the buds from his ears and realized the pretty girl was speaking to her. “Oh sorry, hi…” Cooper replied, blinking for a few moments as his thumb rolled over his mobile, cutting the music down to where it wasn’t blasting from the earpieces at that moment. “Work out? Oh I suppose this is the gym, right?” mused the young man, a shrug crossing his shoulders. “I guess a little bit of both? I like watching people, I mean, girls and all,” he admitted bashfully, motioning towards her tights-clad body (that was remarkable). “But just watching all the… types of people here is a full time job in itself. The workout is an interesting side-trip.” 

luna chuckled softly when she heard cooper’s answers to her question. she stopped beating up the punching bag and gave her full attention to the man. “i can understand that.” she admitted to him. “this island is filled with so many people that are so much different than those i’m use to. i find myself people watching quite frequently too.” she said to him. “mostly to assess if i have to worry about anyone because who knows what could happen on this place and if i’m stuck, i need to make sure that this island is safe and i don’t have to worry about being hurt or killed.” she added.

His eyes moved over to the other girl, raising one eyebrow in her direction. The ‘down to Earth’ thing was telling. He wondered for a moment if they all knew each other, like she might know Hope. “I can see it getting almost awkward. Souls might be meant to be together, but you never can tell if two bodies are until you have time to spend with that person.” 

“i mean, there are like a billion possibilities of what might happen when i meet them, but i don’t know if it will happen or if things will just get all messed up and be a huge mistake.” she stated to him. elliana wasn’t really use to the uncertainty of things or having to worry about what others may think about her.

      “an island. in the bahamas. though most magical creatures know it as agneia, its ancient name given by the dragons.” feronya said, folding her arms as a grin tugged on the corner of her lips. she could send other hybrids by their smell, their aura, their bearing. this one should be quite peculiar. “you’re right. i’ve about five date ideas already, just by having a little tour through this island. i could share for a fair price,” the dragon-fairy nodded, eyeing the other gingerly. “me neither. and i hope not to for a little while, ‘least a few days, i mean. i don’t think i’m ready just yet.”

“wow, that just sounds beautiful. i don’t really know a whole lot about other magical places, my parents were hiding from people, so they did their best to raise me as normal as possible. i mean, i knew i was a witch, but didn’t even know i had fairy powers till i was much older.” the blonde explained to the other woman. “i can understand all that, i’m just so nervous about it all, like what if i embarrass myself or something?” she said.

His head tilted some, but he nodded. “The thing is, I think` that makes you terribly dangerous around here!” admitted Robinson with a slow look away. “Having all those ‘heavenly looks’ will bait you just right - and then that dark side springing on you? It’s rather disarming!” he chuckled. “But you seem to be really open and straightforward about it, so you get a lot of credit there.” 

“i mean, i can be, it really matters if people get on my good side or bad side. my angel side tends to overpower my demon side when it comes to making decisions and things. but if i get angry or don’t like someone, then my demon side takes over.” she admitted to him. “well i mean, you haven’t rubbed me like the type of person i want to ever get on my bad side, and usually when people know they don’t get on my bad side.”

“You do exude this sweet innocence about you. But you look like you’re built for sin rather than prayer,” the vampire admitted, giving her the once over. “Hopefully whomever your soulmate is will be able to give you both sides as you want.” 

“well i mean, i’m an angel and fairy hybrid, so i don’t know how much sin i was built for.” the girl told him with a giggle. “i hope so too, but i don’t know, maybe the person will be even more innocent than me.. though i kind of hope not.”

“Aren’t corrupted? I have a feeling our conversations would need to be kept short. Or restricted to topics found in the library,” he smiled, a cheeky note in his voice. She was really good looking, a perfect body, wonderful smile and eyes that invited you in. He didn’t want to be responsible for her not being peaceful anymore. 

“i’m an adult, not a child. i don’t think people could really corrupt me, maybe if i was younger.” she knew her parents were worried about her coming here because she is very naive and they are worried about that. 

“Talking out your problems. That’s smart!” The vampire gave her a nod and a smile, digging his phone from his backpocket, unlocking it and passing it on to her. “We’ll take a picture together as your contact info once you’ve put it in.” 

“it may be because i come from two species that are usually pretty peaceful creatures, at least as long as they aren’t corrupted.” she stated. both angels and faeries could be corrupted towards a darker side of things, her parents did their best to make sure penelope never was. “that is a great idea.” the girl smiled placing her contact info into his phone.

“Ahh…” he said as realization dawned on him. “Land of the midnight sun and all that? Or is that just Alaska? I can’t recall. But that does explain it. And why you’d be craving all this sunlight you can get!” He pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows - that was a big boast, no matter what. “Sounds like you’re pretty special.”

“no, places of midnight sun isn’t just alaska.” she said with a chuckle. “i mean, at least in alaska there were more people than on the small island i grew up on.” she stated to him. “i mean you can either say special or something terrible, half-angel, half-demon. not exactly something anyone looks well upon.” she chuckled. “but it gives me the beauty of heaven and the charm of hell.”

“Everyone is pretty hung up on this ‘birthmark’ thing, right?” Adam asked, putting down the napkin he had, stepping over to the bar and picking up the refill of his drink. “I’ve already decided, I’m not letting any star sign or voodoo mumble jumble or Miss Cleo tell me who I’m going to be with,” declared the man, sliding onto the sofa in the lounge. “I’ll do this old school, talk to someone, decide if I like them, then go from there.”

“i mean that is a good way at looking at it.” the angel stated to him. “i’m trying my best to stay optimistic about who i may be paired with, though i’m a bit worried about the whole situation.. i have never really come to earth that much since i was born.” she admitted to adam. being a young angel meant that people she grew up with were protective of her and kept her safe from the dangers of earth.

      a soft chuckle huffed from nic as he listened to proposition the other had offered him. ‘ i’d say yes but you really have got to promise to go easy on me. it has been so long since i’ve stepped on the court, ’ he replied with a grin. ‘ we play a game of horse or something so i can warm up ? ’ nic was more of a runner than a team sports player, so basketball certainly wasn’t his strong suit, but he’d give it a try.

“don’t worry about it. i’ve had many friends with no hand eye coordination, so i know how to go easy on people who aren’t really the best at it.” she said to him with a smile. “that sounds great, it will just be good to finally be able to shoot the ball around since it’s been like two weeks since i last was able to and i feel like i’m going through withdrawal or something.” 

“Sure is somethin’, ain’t it?” Smile luminous on his face, Beau looked around their surroundings. “I thought that pamphlet was full of bologna, but it really ain’t half bad.” Everything felt a bit surreal with how perfect it was. He even had to pinch himself a few times just to make sure he was dreaming. 

“i feel like many people thought it would be that way when they were first told about the island, though i’m happy that it’s a good thing i was more positive about the island.” the blonde told him honestly. “because if i wasn’t, then there would’ve been a chance i might’ve not came here.”
