Everyone Strives for Chaos

"To cleanse and calm." Yennefer continued to gently wave the herb mixture, letting the smoke go into all the corners of the room. "Herbs have more healing powers than people with ever truly appreciate and mixed with a little magic." She smiled softly.

Sol placed a napkin over his mouth, shaking his head. "That is more sugar than anything else." He didnt mind a bit of sweet and wanted to try new things but that was too much for him. "How can people enjoy these?"

"Ill take that." Sol nodded. This was all do new to him. He would understand if she was cautious and wary of him. "If it does suck we are in this together." He grinned. A small mischievous shine in his eyes. He wanted to loosen up to have fun with her, enjoy his time. This was his chance to really live.

"I agree you need those ready for anything. And able to fight anyone without hesitation." He nodded. He knew what Obi Wan was capable of. Anakin too. He didnt fear them but it would be stupid to underestimate them. "Ive seen some who are able to do things with their minds. That was impressive. Demons with unspeakable powers. Its fascinating. Found anyone else fun?" He was genuinely curious. "I will always do my job. Of that I have no doubt." He said simply. Jabba paid. So hed do his job. If his daughters decided to stop paying he'd leave.

Viktor walks over -- using his cane for support, and goes and sits beside her. "Women are more than capable of rescuing themselves." He tells her, smiling slightly. "Some authors do write as though they have never met a woman before. It is a huge flaw, in many books, I fear." He shrugs, "There are much better books to be read, out there."

Yennefer closed the book, unimpressed. A sigh leaving her. "Women save men more than men save us. The knight in shinning armour thing, a rare thing." She thought of her sisters, of Tissia and all the women in her life. Men brought pain and frustration. Her mind drifting to Geralt. "Ive found very few unfortunately. There are some that ive found decent. Lighthouse Witches i didnt mind. Strong female characters. I just dont understand how some can get it so wrong."

"Not sure you should trust me with wrapping bouquets. These hands were not made for finesse." He held them up for a moment, rough and caloused from many years of war, hard work and wielding weapons. "Not sure your wonderful clients want their flowers done by an oaf."

"You sing my praises but Aerith I would put you out of business." He joked. Of course he didn't mind not being able to put a bouquet together, it was fun to joke around. Joking was not often something he did. "See we both have our skills which is why we work so well together." He smiled kindly. Plus he just enjoyed spending time with her. She was easy to get along with.

Open starter

Shanks glanced over at the man, looking at the address the other held up. "You're in the very wrong place." The red haired man look up at the street sign then back at the address. "That is on the other side out town."

"Bad luck?" Velara mumbled, looking at her nails for a moment then back at the other woman. "There is a place called Forks? Wow some people really have no imagination." Sure there were some weird names where she was from but forks? That was a utensil. Idiots some of them. "Do you do this often? Ramble to strangers."

"We can only hope." She deserved peace. They all did. After everything that she had been through, that he had been through. Freedom and peace. An odd little family they seemed to be but a type of family. He would do what he could to keep them both safe. Mother and daughter. "Fingers crossed for this peace to be a long one." He smiled brightly at her. "Very ready for summer. Warm evenings, sitting out on the balcony. The park. And being a detective I don't have to worry too much uniform."

(¸.• ♛ → the girl now looked at the other one with a small smile, his company was really comforting, makes her feel safety about this, truly. "for now, that's the only thing that we need to do." hoping, even if sometimes she wasn't that good at that but for her daughter, she was really going to try. "i guess you are right about that. honestly i never really expected summer that much, well, as kid maybe but before with all the debts i used to have it was kind of hard to have some fun, it is nice now to have some freedom to do some things."

It was an odd feeling to have witnessed all of that to then just suddenly find themselves here and far away from all of that. "I agree." Hope wasnt something he used to have a lot of but it came back gradually. With In Ho giving him Soon-Bok and now being here with both Jun Hee and Soon-Bok. It felt like hope was never out of reach. "I understand. I think thats why maybe this summer will be more special because it can be properly enjoyed this time. To really take advantage of this opportunity."

"I do." Henry nodded slowly. He rubbed his chin slowly in thought, ice blue eyes gleaming in the light. "They tried to arrest me before. Drove the warden mad with fear. It was relatively easy to get out of. People feel uncomfortable around me, want to spend as little time around me as possible." He replied with a shrug. "Nothing compared to the lab." He rubbed the back of his neck thst still had the scar from the tracker. "Cannot become soft." He was gentler around her but for others. They needed to remember who he was.

"Thank you." Henry was honest in his words when he said that. He never had anyone be so nice to him. To care for him like she did. He didn't want to mess it up. He didn't want to hurt her. "I hope to not get you involved. Can't risk your safety." He took her hand gently into his his. Gentle was not a word that was often used with Henry Creel. Many might say there was not a kind or gentle bone in his body. He just buried any kindness way down.

"Aren't they, though? Pure magic." Gojo kept his glases on his nose for a moment. He had his technique active so they were shining as well. Like crystals in the sun. Nothing the world had ever seen. After a moment he slipped his glasses back on, covering them even in a cloudly day like today it was exhausting to have them uncovered. "Alright so be it." He held out his phone to her. "Let's say I can see curses better than anyone, from very very far away. Sense their ability, their strength. Were others can't see, I see perfectly."

"Many are." He teased her lightly. Though beautiful they came with responsibility, expectation and the weight of the world on his shoulders. He adjusted his sunglasses. He just hadnt felt like wearing the blindfold today. The glasses didnt protect the same as the blindfold but they were less annoying. "No of course and now I have your number if id ever want to invite you for a drink or something." A mischievous smile on his pale face as he accepted the phone back.

closed starter for @musessongs (Rey x Ben)

In truth, Rey couldn’t remember the last time she’d seen Ben Skywalker. Surely, it had been ages — but some time when they were both living here, in Washington. “Do you remember me, Ben?” She asks, smiling softly. “I do not need help with my car, so no need to worry about having to keep working.” She shrugs her shoulders.

"Sorry Rey took me a moment. Busy day." He smiled at her. He just hadnt clocked who had walked in. Just assumed she was a customer. "For that im grateful it has been quite a day." He nodded, wiping the grease from his hands and placed the rag down by his tools.

"Maybe but I like to think i have a good head on my shoulders and know when I need to tell the truth and when I need to hype you up." He grinned. Pressing a kiss to her cheek. She meant the world to him. "Youre right. Its just about finding the words. Talia is headstrong like the rest of the Hales." He did hope to see her again. Even if he was scared of her at times he knew they were siblings and would fight for each other. "I know its better from me than anyone else..."

(¸.• ♛ → the redhead nodded when he said that. "i trust that you will for sure." she says now looking at him with a small smile on her lips. "you know her, i'm sure you will find the right words to tell her all of this." the girl commented, a small sigh escaped from her lips, this was going to be hard but it is something that he needed to do. "you are making a good choice, i'm sure of it but it's always up to you."

"Of course." He could be deceiving and sneaky when he needed to be but he wouldnt be that way with her. She'd get the honest Peter, the Peter he wanted to be and needed to be. The Peter he had been was a survival method. "Words have not been my greatest strength, sarcasm that was my sweet spot." He laughed nervously. "I know. I just know how hard it was for me and I didnt die in that fire. Anyway ill figure it out if I see her."

Enid gave the other a soft smile. It was a chance meeting, Peter, but she was glad that she did. Sure, Enid had brothers; she was the only girl in her family, but because she got her wolf so late in life, she was a bit of a black sheep. "I appreciate that, thank you. You're like the older brother I never had." She smiled. "Speaking of, I made you something!"

Peter never thought he would actually have basically a little sister. He was grateful for Enid. She was fun, she was different and he appreciated that. "And you're like the little sister I never had so it seems we are even." He smiled. He wasn't the best at family, he was worried about being an Alpha and sure he would never live up to his sister's standard. "You did? Should I be nervous?" He teased her lightly.

silena had walked up to the other on the park bench, asking if she could sit. but after she received no response she bent a little to be more eye level with him and waved her hand a bit. "hello? are you there?"

"Sorry was thinking." Zuko let the fire disappear from his hand. "Everything alright?" He glanced at her and looked around for any immedate danger as that was his go to often.

"I know but it's important and I need to get over my hesitation here. And with more dh'oine traditions." He smiled at her and adjusted the collar of his suit jacket before holding out her jacket for her to take. It was getting warmer which was nice. "It will be nice because it's with you." He was nervous, even with her just because it wasn't what he was used to.

(¸.• ♛ → a small smile was on her lips now looking at him. "well, we are going to find that out together." she was sure of that, of course, because it was going to be great to just have a chill time between them, they really deserve that. she was grateful to be with angel here and that both just can be together finally and nothing can matter just the two of them, it's been a while since they can be like this. "i love to hear that." she says now in a playful tone, her gaze on him. "you always know what to say."

"Looking forward to it." Angel nodded. He wanted to have fun. He wanted to let himself relax. It would take a little work and reminding himself that he was fine. That maybe, just maybe they could do this. With everything that happened they were allowed to have a bit of fun and to relax. He would do whatever he could to keep her safe, to ensure that she could have the life she wanted. Getting to be here like this with her it was a dream. "I try my best." He pressed a kiss to her cheek. "You are the coolest woman ever."
