Josie Had Been In A Mood Since Her And Hope's European Dark Magic Adventure. Despite Loving Her Job,

taking a deep breath, allowed josie to hear the tone of the others voice. looking up at the girl with a shrug, she realized that blossom managed to grab a decent amount of the strewn about papers. "well you seem to be really good at catching, so i guess that makes the situation a little better." she teased, before kneeling down and grabbing the rest of the papers. "i just need to get these to the admin office before they close and then i can go home. this day has been dragging for far too long." she admitted before getting back up to face the other. "i'm uhh josie, thanks for grabbing the rest of those."

she was always in her own world, her head in the clouds as some people would say, although that never bothered blossom. she preferred it that way, but the change in the air was something she could even sense. nightmares and the idea of death lingering around every corner and maybe that was why she preferred to stay in her own world full of art and distancing from others.

headphones blaring her music, her mind not really focusing on where she was walking. her only snap back to reality was when she felt herself collide against Josie. “ah fuck.” blossom mumbled, seeing the paper scatter around the pair of them. herself grabbing as many as she could before the wind would take them away. “sorry about that.” the girl spoke, holding them out for the other. “kinda weren’t paying attention.”

she was hyper aware of everything, the way her clothing itched against her skin, something it hadn't done earlier. goosebumps rose on her arms as a calming voice took blanketed the worry. that voice, josie knew it from somewhere. with wide eyes the siphoner looked to see who was speaking, her brows furrowing as their gazes met. confusion and excitement ran through her veins, her heart beating faster from the whole ordeal. getting out of the car, josie looked at the other and smiled. "you umm, your voice it's familiar."

"have we met before?" there was no time for playing it cool, because all her thoughts and feelings swirled together. later josie would for sure kick herself for not acting mysterious. it felt like she knew this person before her and she couldn't shake that off.

clearly benni's self-preservation skills were severely lacking. being attacked twice since the masquerade should have sent the human packing back to florida tail between her legs. instead, they'd texted their aunt, hoping her arrival would be soon. benni couldn't leave. plus, one of her attackers had been very human, that could have happened to her anywhere. new orleans was too full of things begging to be uncovered, whether it was for work or the personal pleasure of solving every mystery that crossed her path.

then there was the woman who'd fully captured their attention at the masquerade. the woman who, through everything benni had been through in the past few days, had never left her brain. a mystery that brought a spike of excitement rather than fear. benni promised herself that she wouldn't leave the house past dark, if being cinderella saved her life, so be it. that meant she needed to spend as much time outside in the light as she could. finding themself at the stables wasn't expected, but was interesting none the less.

after getting out of her car, benni's gaze shifted to the car across from her. from what features she could make out, there was a sense of familiarity that flashed through her. ever the curious, benni was going to find out why and how. " excuse me, " they called out for the other to hopefully hear and either roll down the window, or step out so she could get a better look.

blossom wasn't wrong, there really weren't many safe places in new orleans. not with the murders taking place. there were however a few places where josie felt at ease, her home and the boarding school. both had protective spells surrounding the building, making it hard for anything with bad intentions to enter. "very true, but when i got my apartment i made sure to say every boundary spell i knew. so my place should be a little safer than most."

the two met in school long ago, not that josie would ever actually talk to anyone other than hope and lizzie. but she'd do her best to say hello, since she had always respected how loving josh and aiden were. "i won't keep you long, promise just wanna pick your brain on a few things."

she knew it wasn’t the best to push people away, but then again, she couldn’t really explain what was going on and why this alleyway was screaming that a death was going to happen. but then again, anything could happen to anyone with the body count going up by the day.

“yeah, I think you’re right.” the small wrinkle of her nose for a moment. “although you could debate as to where is really safe at the moment.”

being supernatural in new orleans, meant that even if you hadn't actually talked to the person, you still sensed it on them. being a bringer of souls, meant that you needed to notice these differences. years later, she did her best to use that ability for good. "thanks, uhh it's mau right?" gabi tilted her head knowing that she had seen the woman at the b&b before. "i'm making bruschetta and it requires more tomatoes than i was able to grow. how weird it is that this is considered a fruit?" they quipped before placing the perfectly ripe berry in the tote with the rest of the ingredients. "you're parents are mary and nora right?" her eyebrow rose as she stood straighter.

she wanted a sense of normality. herself having tried to avoid society for too long with her recent change. the hybrid knew she had been staring at the same four walls of her apartment for too long. the farmers market had always brought her some joy. the vibrant colours, the smells and the atmosphere was always a place that brought her happiness. her eyes had been staring at the berry and she was about to grab it before she shook her head, hearing gabriela. “no, honestly you take it. i’ll be fine.” she spoke, hands slipping in her jacket pocket. “think you or your guests will enjoy it more.”

for the tiniest moment, gabriela could see the person she'd love before, but it instantly went away with venomous threats being hurled at her. this was why they didn't work, no love was present in raymis, only darkness and hatred, they only took pleasure if it also involved pain. for gabi, that didn't feel like love. "my daughter is not neglecting any part of her, she is a young woman who is still figuring herself out. when she is ready i will tell her all about being a demon and what it entails, but she isn't just a demon and neither was i. you seem to forget how my soul was sold in the first place." she was always more human than raymis, more human than any demon she worked with while bringing souls.

"yes, i traded love for hatred, most would do the same thing. tyler doesn't hurt me the way you did raymis. i am not pretending to be anyone." her words came out through gritted teeth, heat rising through her body as they began to threaten her daughter. as raymis got closer she didn't back away, a stern look on her face as she looked them in the eyes. "don't you dare threaten my family, you've been dead before and i can make sure you'll be dead again." she stood tall against raymis, not backing down. "what do you want me to come back to? you hurting me time and time again, only doing things because some higher power demanded it? i don't want to live like that, i have a life here, one that doesn't make me feel used." if raymis really did love her, then he would leave now, but she knew that their love was so not the same.

raymis moved his attention to gabriela forgetting that anyone else existed . the demon moved standing 6 ft tall to meet her lower stare . " your daughter is neglecting part of herself . . just like her mother . " they spoke darkly , almost as if they were disappointed in the other demon's action . " maybe i'm just trying to make sure she embraces her true self . . something you failed doing lala . " raymis revealed his disposition . maybe it was jealousy that gabriela had started a whole new life and abandoned her duties to hell ;; and in raymis eye's kaya was the result of that betrayal .

" you traded us , for this ? " the demon spoke darkly as if they were the higher species , before their nearly black , dark brown hues fell on her husbands across the room . " seeing you try to pretend to be like them makes me sick . . " raymis tone was deep , rough and heartless as they displayed their own anger . " so if i can't have you . i'll take the second best thing , i'm sure arcadia would like to meet kaya . " raymis threaten , clearly trying to get under gabriela skin . " or you can come back home , and things can be the way they were lala . . how does that sound ? " he approached her , leaving little space between them .

finally, someone was willing to say something. eleanor took a deep heavy breath before walking closer to the man. "a lot lost." she admitted before rubbing her eyes, ever since leaving the graveyard her vision had been blurry. all of her bones ached and each muscle felt as if it was stuck, like she was a tin person who lacked oil. "i need a phone and i don't have any money, but i need to talk to my fiancee." she also needed a shower, water, and food, but the main worry was always nikolas.

Coffee mug in hand, Damon trots down the steps of his porch for the morning paper. He takes stock of the lawn care ads, grocery store coupons, and someone else's mail in the box when he notices the blonde staggering through the street. Damon's half attempt at a wave seems to go unnoticed, but something about her distress reads a little less hungover than he'd prefer. "This can't be good," he mutters to himself, thinking only twice before slamming the mailbox shut. "Get a little lost?" he calls out, and takes a few steps toward her, where the reality of her disarray becomes apparent, "Or ... a lot lost?"

everything was fuzzy. yet at the same time so vibrant, the whole thing gave her a headache, one she couldn't seem to shake. ever since crawling out of the grave, there were only two things on eleanor's mind, water and her fiancee. placing unruly hair behind her ears, she walked toward the french quarter in search for both. the thing was, she had no money on her. so to get any answers, the anxiously meek woman looked around for someone kind enough to notice she was in distress.

"excuse me, could uhh..." she trailed off unable to get the attention of another, sulking her shoulders forward. ellie's brain felt as if it heavy, as the bright lights strained her already blurry vision.

No longer a danger to herself or others She made up her mind and laced up her shoes Yelled down the hall, but nobody answered So she walked outside without an excuse She can do anything she wants to She can do whatever she wants to do She could go home, but she's not going to

the moon card // upright: unconscious, illusions, intuition // reversed: confusion, fear, misinterpretation

which wolf wins? i guess it really depends, just gotta wait and see, which one's appеtite's the biggest. turns out I'm livin' in a horror film whеre I'm both the killer and the final girl. so who, who are you? -- paramore you first

for hayley to move on from everything that happened with her past, she had to focus a lot on her unconscious mind. by doing so, she was able to trust her intuition and become the person she'd always hoped to be. in motherhood, she made sure her children were aware that it is okay to dream and have an imagination. helping them become aware that what some say are illusion, are just a deeper part of your being.

since the masquerade, she has become a little bit shaken with fear. her family's safety has always come first. the hybrid is a firm believer of always and forever and will make sure to do what is often more than needed when it comes to their protection. this can often lead to confusion on hayley's part, as she will do anything in her power to make sure that her children and husband are safe. when in these hyper-aware states, she can be misrepresented as someone much crueler than she could ever be. can hayley keep her sanity while also defending her family against inadu?
