When the fairies approached him with the idea, he accepted without much thinking. Orion had been waiting for a human. This? This was something much, much better. They had chosen the place and he marched to it wearing simple, but elegant clothes. No suit, nothing too much on the nose. It was too warm for it and besides, they were going to a bar. Like normal people did. They had warned him that the young man was still discovering about his true nature, that he had lived a long time among humans. Most of his time. And they told Orion that the lad had no choice in the matter. It was a gift and as such, he would be Orion, like it or not.

When you cause an incursion, everything becomes...quiet. With no sign of life aside from yourself in the universe it was eerily quiet, leaving Stephen Strange alone with only his thoughts which would have been horrible before but with the Darkhold whispering in his ear? Well...it had surely driven the Sorcerer Supreme mad. 

With no one to stop him, no one to guide him, he’d gone down a dark path, letting the influence of the Darkhold guide him. He spent most of his time Dreamwalking, trying to find another universe where he was happy with Christine - Christine. Christine Palmer, she was the only thought he had most of the time, the only light in his otherwise dim life and if he couldn’t have her then every Stephen Strange he could find would suffer the consequences. What was a life without love?

     “ -Okay so firstly, the constructive criticism that you asked for” Emeli sat up, taking off her earpiece so that she could give Peter her full attention. “You could have leaned on me more, I would have solved that Mayan puzzle in two seconds and we both know it, however..” she let the notepad in her hand fall to the desk so that she could jump up, wrapping her arms around him in a tight hug. “As your best friend I have to disregard that note to tell you that you did an amazing job and that I’m really proud of you” she beamed, pressing a kiss to his cheek before the redhead let him go. “Great job” One of Emeli’s classes was a Full Team Study Period - her attempt at trying to work on the fact that working in a team made her want to claw her own eyes out - so sometimes if their schedules lined up just right Emeli would help out if Peter was running field simulation training. It was a win-win all around and both parties were happy to help the other out, plus, Emeli couldn’t be mad at Peter if she tried. It kept her focused. “Are we all done though? I’m getting pretty hungry”

Baekhyun wasn't fan of the autumn, because days were shorter and nights longer. And as wielder of light he enjoyed the sun and light more, but also because he knew darkness drained his powers. He was sitting on the beach, watching the sun, that was slowly setting behind the horizon. Deep sigh escaped his lips, as he rested his chin against palm of his hand, keeping eyes on the sun. "Why'd you leave like that...? My only friend... My only happiness..." He mutters mainly to himself, because there was no one around, at least he thought there wasn't.
