                   ♡     the lion had set his trap. he’s got the hotel room’s keycard in between fingers, patiently waiting for his prey. instinctively raises to his feet when the door opens. he finds himself questioning the trail of feelings running through him as he locked eyes with someone so familiar and yet so foreign. and despite being speechless, his fingers twitch, burning as they almost reached in feather’s direction. it feel slike in a moment he recalls every kiss and every touch leo’d ever pressed against his skin, every bit of affection he’d poured into the other- so much that he’d left himself empty. it’s only now that he realizes that deception might upset his opposite- and so he HAS to speak, if only to break the ice.  ❝ .. you said you would miss me... ❞ endlessly, if he remembered correctly.  ❝ you really meant that, right? ❞

        ‘  since  i  stayed  over  already,  why  not  make  the  most  out  of  the  day  ??   ’   it’s  probably  very  early  morning,  morticia  didn’t  bother  to  open  the  windows.  she  didn’t  even  bother  to  get  up  from  the  bed.  the  last  thing  she  remembers  from  last  night  is  an  intense  feeling  of  pleasure  which  she  woke  up  craving  more.  laying  on  the  other’s  chest  with  a  sweet  look,  she  is  doing  her  best  to  persuade  them  into  what  she  wants.   ‘  wouldn’t  that  be  a  good  way  to  start  the  day  ??   ’   her  hand  was  under  the  covers  and  slowly  slipping  down  to  their  hips  to  point  out  what  she  exactly  means.  //  @xuanmo​ 

minwoo looked at the other, head tilted to the side slightly. he was trying to have fun and see just how many drinks it took for him to feel any of the alcohol’s effects — if he could feel anything at all. ever since the change, he’d been wary to attend any sort of party. but, now that he believed he understood how to conduct himself without endangering himself or others, he ventured out once more. if anyone else had been asked their opinion on the matter, they would tell minwoo it was too soon. “look, i’ve downed, like, five of these things and you’re not any more attractive than you were when i first saw you. but, you’re actually already really attractive, so you’re ruining my whole experiment here. i’m going to need you to either change seats or buy me another drink because this just isn't working,” he joked, chuckling as his nose scrunched slightly. he wasn’t typically so bold when it came to telling someone he found them attractive, but the setting gave him the confidence he needed to do so.

 —   “hey!” theo calls, her voice a whisper in tone but she’s definitely shouting to be heard from this far away. she doesn’t quite want to resort to having to call them, so she throws another pebble. not hard enough to damage the window, but hopefully enough to catch their attention. she did not have a good day and she’s really hoping to at least turn the night into a neutral one, if not a good one. she’s about to throw another rock when she finally sees them open the window and rolls her eyes. “took you long enough. dude, come on. i’m starving. go to the roof?”

“i’m addicted to everything you say to me and just being around you.” jiyu paused for a second, a slight laugh escaping her at her own words. “that kinda sounds pathetic... and better in my head.”

           for  a  while  after  she  found  herself  back  on  earth,  althea  felt  very  lost  about  what  to  do.  it  took  her  an  embarrasingly  long  time  to  figure  out  what  she  even  was.  but  when  everything  popped  into  place  and  she  realised  that  she  was  nothing  more  than  a  ghost   ...   she  just  didn’t  know  what  she  should  be  doing.  plus,  she  didn’t  even  know  why  she  was  still  here.  what  was  holding  her  back  ??   after  thinking  about  it  a  bit,  her  not  so  beating  heart  realised  that  she  would  have  gone  to  the  other  side  already  if  it  hadn’t  been  for  someone.  maybe  the  case  they  were  fighting  for  also  had  some  impact  but  not  as  much  emotionally.  so  when  althea  saw  the  person  that  held  her  bound  to  this  world  alone,  she  figured  it  was  the  time  to  face  her.   ‘  tatsu  ...   ’    she  whispered,  hoping  for  the  other  to  be  able  to  see  her  now  that  althea  knew  how  to  carry  herself.  //  @xuanmo​

           clyde  has  never  been  the  one  to  care  for  christmas.  truthfully  he  wasn’t  even  sure  if  he  was  allowed  to  celebrate  such  holidays.  but  it  didn’t  stop  him  from  spending  this  time  with  the  other.   ‘  i  heard  that  you  should  find  a  mistletoe  on  christmas.  ’   he  said  in  a  teasing  tone.   ‘  and  i’m  bringing  you  along  cause  you  keep  me  warm  against  this  cold.  ’  he  joked.  //  @xuanmo​
