seilas / silas
a contemplative expression cascades over silas’ features and a pause follows tatia’s question. “no, actually i don’t.” he answers after a beat before a grin spreads across his face. “if they’re insistent i’ll cast a spell on them but sometimes, i’ll play along with it and leave them with whatever impression i feel like.” impersonating the doppelgangers wasn’t a lifestyle but he couldn’t turn down the opportunity to frame someone. “yea—no, i came up with the idea of immortality but qetsiyah was the one who created the spell, so all complaints should be addressed to her.” he nods and lips curve into a smile. “it has to do with the balance of nature, how everything that lives must die and so on and so on. it’s nothing personal, just mother nature doing her thing.” a doppelganger is responsible for keeping the biological life cycle going which pretty much certifies they’re doomed from the start.
eyebrows raised when he started talking, rolling her eyes when he started explaining. ‘’ right. ‘’ tatia spoke as she crossed her arms. ‘’ sadly, not all of us can put spells on people your life must be wonderful. ‘’ her voice sounded slightly sarcastic, but to be honest tatia knows how it is to have magic. she was a witch once too, a long long time ago. ‘’ didn’t getsiyah cursed you, because you were in love with amara? so, it is kind of your fault. ‘’ a small smirk appeared upon her face, pleased with herself. tatia never got to meet amara, but she did saw elena and katherine when she was lurking into the shadows. ‘’ oh well, guess we have to accept the fact there will be a lot of people walking around with the same face. ‘’ a shrug followed while her eyes kept focussed upon the male.
