“But I…” his hand fell from Braylin’s shirt. “He…oh god.”

Braylin moved from the wall to stand beside his friend. “Did you spike my drink that night?” Even though he’d been told he still hadn’t believed it.

Nodding Matt hugged his arms tight around himself. “You needed to pay. For my sister.” Looking around at all the angry accusatory faces he continued “yes I spiked your drink. I made sure you took the drink I made special for you. I had John give you the next drink. He was wasted so it was easy getting him to do it.” Glancing at Braylin “it’s what you deserved. No good drunk.”

“Did Trebor deserve what you did to him?” he demanded, stepping forward getting into Matt’s face. “Never mind me. Trebor didn’t deserve to fall down a flight of stairs or to have his arm broken. Because of you he might not regain full mobility of his hand.”

Matt’s mouth worked but no sound came out for a moment. “That was an accident. I didn’t mean for him to get hurt.” His eyes lifted “he wouldn’t have gotten hurt if you hadn’t been wasted.”

Thank you for this dear! ♥

Cole McKinley Facts

He's actually a marshmallow once you get to know him.

LoFi is a passion of his, but his record label won't back the album.

He's been married twice now, and all of his daughters are with various women whom he's still friends with.

He dislikes turning people into vampires.

🥰🥰🥰

I’ll only accept this if you know just how wonderful I think you are! Your posts are a bright spot on my dash and I always miss you when you’re gone. 💖 

Aw, at least he is a happy ghost, mine like to show up red lol. I don’t like when my legacy family start dying though, I keep their ghosts

Thank you so much for always keeping me in mind (>^3^)>

Uh, wow, but picking favourites is so hard... I think I’ll go with Gilles, because goblin man just doesn’t get enough love (well, he would, if he woud pay attention to Lily, but that’s another story...).Anyway, here we go:

1. He hates, and I mean HATES! any kind of blue cheese. Both, taste and texture, he finds tormenting more than anything else.

2. He’s a Necromancer who was once burned alive for heresy and revived himself from the dead.

3. In terms of love, romance and sex he’s a very proper and old-fashioned guy. No casual affairs, no meaningless encounters - he’s only in for a lifetime commitment. (though as a Necromancer “til death do us part” might be optional)

4. He can make (male) friends easily and is loyal as such, and expects the same from his friends. He feels most comfortable in a bond of (chosen) brotherhood.

I’ll sneakily do the twins, because!

💔 - Neither of them has had one, yet.. (I will add a small spoiler though - for one of them.. someone leaves, suddenly and it takes years for them to meet again)

💑 What are my muse’s requirements for a potential partner?

Hayden: That they don’t need too much from him, because of his illness, he has limits to what he can do. Someone that is happy with evenings at home, in a bed, and gives him time alone when he needs it. 

Rylan: Someone with a quirky sense of humor, that can handle him being a model and what that brings with it. Also, someone who can just be there for him, that one person that takes care of him. 

💝 Does my muse like Valentine’s Day?

“He killed my sister” he called after him “doesn’t that tell you something about the guy?”

Rory turned to face him “if I were you I’d be careful. People can still sue for defamation of character. We only have your word that he killed her. Where’s the proof? Why isn’t he in jail?” He quickly turned, avoiding Matt’s attempt to grab him.

Turning in circles Matt could see the other’s walking away shaking their heads at him. “You need me. I’m the best you have. I can skate circles around all of you.”

“Give it a rest” John advised him moving towards the locker room door. “They all know you’re just in it for the glory not the game. That’s the difference between you and Bray. Bray loves the game. You can see it in his eyes the moment his blades hit the ice. He shared the limelight with everyone because it was for the game. It wasn’t about him.”

Matt’s mouth gaped “you’ve got to be joking. McGavin let you all down. Let the team down. You’re a better team without him.”

“”We’d rather lose as a team than win with you” Terry asserted, frowning heavily at him.

“Oh come on” Matt grabbed the older man’s arm. “What does it matter how you win as long as you do?”

Jerking his arm away scowling. “It matters because everyone has a role to play. Everyone works hard. Everyone deserves the credit for the part they played on the team whether they are the best or grinder. No one wants to ride the skirts of someone like you.”

Watching the man stride away towards the showers Matt scoffed. “He’s jealous. I’m younger and better than him. He’d be better off quitting before he becomes just another has been.” Turning towards the others he found them all resolutely standing with their backs to him. “The way you’re treating me you’d think I was the bad guy. I’m the guy leading us to the championships, not McGavin. I’m not the guy who decided to get high. Maybe you should think about that instead of complaining.”

Slamming his locker shot Mike brushed past Matt. “Even on Bray’s worst days he was a better player than you ever will be.”

His mouth dropping open he turned to Joseph. “I don’t get it. We’re a better team without McGavin.”

Joseph exchanged a worried look with Rory before turning to face Matt. “You’re the only one who shares that opinion.”

“What” he demanded shocked “I thought you were on my side. Didn’t McGavin hurt your cousin? As I recall McGavin pushed him down a flight of stairs. I mean you don’t want to play with someone who does that do you?”

“I’ve had a lot of time to think about what happened that night” Joseph tossed his jersey into his locker. Reaching for his towel he moved towards the showers “I don’t think Braylin intentionally tried to hurt Trebor that night.”

“Who cares about intentions” Matt snapped “he was wasted. He was to blame regardless of his intentions.”
