“i was bored. and you seemed really focused on whatever you were doing and i just got curious. by the way, before you accuse me of lying, i’d like to inform you that i’m a fae. there’s no way i could ever lie to you, sweetheart,” she replied, playing around with the words. she did follow the mundane for her own amusement but she had no intention in telling her that she found her funny. “you have the sight, that’s impressive.”

nymeria was happy to see how beautiful he aged. the last time she saw him, he was just a confused child that lost his mother but now, he was indeed a strong man. it made her feel proud, despite not being part of his life. little things like this made her immortal life easier. for someone who didn’t know, they both looked the same age. actually, she was probably twenty seven or twenty eight when she decided to stop aging. “really? and how exactly did your kingdom end up being under siege? i thought you were taking good care of it.” she quickly reminded herself the reason she came back to london and she was aware that he will not like to hear this but she had to tell him the truth. it was for his own safety after all. “i’m not here to join any fight but you aren’t entirely wrong here, cutie. the queen is indeed interested  in something but that has nothing to do with london’s affairs. she has had her eyes on you for a while. things are bad and it’s only up to you to solve this in a peaceful way. i wanted to leave the seelie court earlier but i couldn’t do it. however, she decided to send me to london now because she wanted me to meet with you. she wants to talk to you but it wouldn’t be clever to go there all by yourself. you do know how tricky she can be.”

nymeria found some mundanes rather strange. most of them knew they were an easy target for the rest of the world and accepted themselves but it looks like this one enjoyed playing with fire. and knives. she noticed her weapon early and she knew she had to be careful around her. however, she was pretty curious to see where was this woman headed to so she followed her steps. “i’m unarmed and i’m mostly harmless,” she quickly said before the other could react. her cover was blown, the fun was ruined but oh well. it could’ve been worse.

there was nothing that would bring her joy more than a random meeting with one of her dearest friends. he reminded her of her younger days, despite still being two centuries and a half old. moments like this one made the immortal life seem easier. “the one and only,” she shrugged in an overdramatic way. it’s been a really long time since she last saw him and she almost couldn’t believe her eyes. he was so grown-up and she had been right when she said that he will be a truly handsome man later in his life. his mismatched eyes caught her attention a few years ago and soon enough, nymeria became his friend. the fae realm was a dangerous place and it was a hell of a challenge for such a young child to survive all by himself. she quickly understood that he was not only a pretty face but also a great future warrior. “ruling? it doesn’t look like you’re doing a great job, sweetie,” she teased. there it was, that signature bravado she remembered so well. time might fly but some things just cannot change.

the london institute was filled with dull nephilim that did nothing but to train and sleep. nymeria was almost sorry for most of them. well, almost. it’s not like she held any of them in high regard, she had never been a big fan of the children of raziel. desiring not to get bored to death, the fae decided it’s time for a walk. a park would be nice, she wouldn’t mind being surrounded by nature. however, on her way out, she bumped into a face she hasn’t seen in years. “cupcake!” she exclaimed, a wide grin spreading all over her face as she stepped closer towards her old friend. “what are you doing here, in this kingdom of lethargy?” ( @seelieborn )

“ah, darling. i never knew you had such fine taste in women. i do feel quite generous today & i’m going to let you choose something to do. i’m not feeling picky today but i will blame you in case i get bored.”

carelessly walking through the streets of london, nymeria wasn’t headed anywhere in particular. she would probably return to the court at a later point today and fulfill her duty of reporting to her superiors. that was a part of her job that she did not enjoy. however, it needed to be done. she came across a familiar face and decided to quietly follow her for her own entertainment, just to see what was she up to. swiftly moving around, nymeria thought that the fair folk could wait a little bit longer.
