“Oh Absolutely, I’m gonna swoon and my heart’s gonna do that thing where it beats against my chest visibly.But I think you should say if I fight that dude and win, though I’ll give ya a smooch for effort if you lose.” She grins around the lollipop she’d been sucking on, a hint of mischief clouding the otherwise carefree action.

“yeah, i bet your chicken arms do some real damage.” his voice lilts like he’s trying to make a joke, but his expression says otherwise. with his lips painted solid and straight and his eyes just barely catching a glimpse of the way she smiles around her lollipop, he looks like they might as well be talking about the weather for the fifth time that day. even so, he tugs on the stick of her lollipop, effectively taking it from her mouth so he can give it a suck of his own. it looks natural, like sharing a lollipop is as normal as sharing a bag of chips. 

sharp red cuts into the pale expanse of his shirt, ripping it away from its intended image into something darker — unhinged violence. sighing at the sight, he glances at lillith and sets his lips in a line of displeasure, ❝ that was messier than expected. ❞ his fingers reach down and yank the horrendous pocket square from the corpse’s suit, wiping away the traces of life staining his hands. 

❝ you think they’d know when to stop struggling, ❞ he tsks and releases the pocket square. it falls unceremoniously into a small heap on its owner, garbage atop garbage.

Anastasia has heard of the demon Lilith but seeing her right in front of her, she doesn’t see the glam and glory that was described to her before. Playing with the earring that dangled from her earlobe, her eyes focused on the other who sat in the waiting room in waits for Alastair. If anyone were to meet her brother, they would have to go through her first. That was mere protocol that had been set up by Alastair himself. “He’ll be with you shortly. Anything you would like to drink whilst you wait?” 

( • • • ) His smile is bright, almost  p a i n f u l l y  so as the familiar face approached the counter. “—been grabbing some overtime when I can, ” Kinam admitted quietly while he was already working to help rid Aeri of the armful of goods. “ A little vacation, huh? I’m envious—I’ve been good. Working—still breathing—good things and all. ” There’s a moment of AWKWARDNESS over his own words, head dipping suddenly as he wishes he could quite literally disappear. “ I—uh—we have a discount going on most of this today. Two for one kinda thing. ” It’s much easier for the already flustered Kinam to talk about food than himself as he’s punching numbers quickly into the register with eyes averted from the beauty.
