Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā A Ā HUM Ā SOUNDED, Ā A Ā PERFECT Ā MIMIC Ā OF Ā RADIO Ā STATIC Ā VIBRATED Ā against Ā his Ā lips. Ā His Ā head Ā tilted, Ā and Ā a Ā single Ā brow Ā arched Ā while Ā a Ā clawed Ā hand Ā placed Ā down Ā his Ā mug. Ā His Ā crimson Ā eyes Ā glanced Ā at Ā her Ā with Ā an Ā ear Ā twitching Ā at Ā the Ā sound Ā of Ā her Ā voice. Ā One Ā could Ā have Ā missed Ā her, Ā and Ā in Ā fact Ā most Ā of Ā them Ā had. Ā However, Ā Alastor Ā had Ā a Ā keen Ā eye Ā for Ā spotting Ā what Ā should Ā not Ā be. Ā So, Ā she Ā didnāt Ā stay Ā a Ā secret Ā for Ā much Ā longer.Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā She Ā could Ā have Ā a Ā use, Ā but Ā for what?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā HIS Ā EARS Ā STRAIGHTENED Ā BACK Ā TO Ā THEIR Ā NORMAL Ā POSITION, Ā ā Ā I Ā SUPPOSE Ā such Ā a Ā question Ā could Ā have Ā multiple Ā meanings. Ā Chaos Ā could Ā be Ā considered Ā someoneās Ā order, Ā while Ā someoneās Ā chaos Ā could Ā be Ā someoneās Ā order, Ā āĀ Alastor Ā shrugged, Ā quite Ā amused Ā by Ā the Ā thought, Ā ā Ā So, Ā itās Ā really Ā about Ā preference, Ā ā Ā a Ā chuckle Ā as Ā he Ā waved Ā his Ā hand, Ā āĀ Ā I Ā tend Ā to Ā like Ā things Ā a Ā little Ā ofā¦ Ā both, Ā ā Ā his Ā smile Ā neutral, Ā ā Ā What Ā about Ā you, Ā dear? Ā ā
@he11bambi: "Do you know the difference between order and chaos?" / accepting.
the demon's luminous eyes blink once, twice at the other. order & chaos? yes, she knows. she thinks that before she died, she knew even better. (head trauma does that to someone.) "ch - chaos is ... out of control. mess." screaming, crying, illusions, fire, the stairs -- no, stop. her image flickers, wide eyes drifting. "order is ... um. clean. neat. everything in ... in its place, correct." the way she would have wanted it. "yes, i ... i know. why ... ?"

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā HE Ā KNEW Ā THE Ā EAGERNESS Ā IN Ā HER, Ā SAW Ā IT Ā EVERY Ā TIME Ā they Ā sat Ā down Ā like Ā this Ā together. Ā He Ā liked Ā it, Ā made Ā it Ā fun Ā to Ā watch Ā her Ā struggle Ā for Ā the Ā answers. Ā How Ā badly Ā did Ā she Ā want Ā to Ā know? Ā Well, Ā Alastor Ā figured Ā it Ā would Ā show Ā in Ā her Ā dedication. Ā If Ā she Ā truly Ā wanted Ā to Ā know Ā everything Ā then Ā she Ā would Ā have Ā to Ā make Ā it Ā her Ā life Ā goal. Ā If Ā not, Ā then Ā he Ā guessed Ā she Ā didnāt Ā want Ā to Ā know Ā that Ā badly.Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā STILL, Ā WHEN Ā SHE Ā GOT Ā SOMETHING Ā RIGHT Ā HE Ā WOULD Ā BE Ā SURE Ā to Ā reward Ā her Ā in Ā some Ā sort Ā of Ā fashion. Ā Much Ā like Ā what Ā he Ā had Ā just Ā done. Ā Everyone Ā loved Ā to Ā have Ā a Ā good Ā applause Ā once Ā in Ā a Ā while. Ā Even Ā if Ā it Ā was Ā over Ā a Ā trivial Ā thing Ā like Ā his Ā drink Ā preferences.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ALASTOR Ā BROUGHT Ā HIS Ā MUG Ā TO Ā HIS Ā LIPS, Ā HIS Ā SMILE Ā ALWAYS Ā there. Ā The Ā demon Ā made Ā a Ā small Ā noise, Ā a Ā hum Ā of Ā sorts Ā that Ā mimicked Ā the Ā sound Ā of Ā radio Ā static, Ā ā I Ā thank Ā you Ā for Ā your Ā nice Ā compliments, Ā my Ā dear, Ā ā Ā he Ā took Ā a Ā small Ā sip Ā before Ā placing Ā down Ā his Ā drink, Ā ā Ā You Ā came Ā to Ā that Ā conclusion Ā only Ā based Ā on Ā what Ā I Ā wear Ā and Ā how Ā I Ā present Ā myself? Ā ā Ā Another Ā hum, Ā ā Ā Interesting Ā indeed. Ā How Ā can Ā I Ā be Ā certain Ā it Ā was Ā from Ā that Ā observation, Ā and Ā not Ā you Ā happening Ā to Ā see Ā me Ā with Ā a Ā glass? Ā ā Ā A Ā test? Ā Maybe. Ā He Ā only Ā did Ā indulge Ā alone Ā most Ā days, Ā but Ā he Ā had Ā a Ā curious Ā streak Ā of Ā his Ā own.Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā duringĀ theirĀ routineĀ coffeeĀ meetings,Ā itĀ becameĀ quiteĀ apparentĀ thatĀ sheĀ wasĀ increasinglyĀ restlessĀ andĀ eagerĀ toĀ discoverĀ moreĀ aboutĀ theĀ mysteriousĀ demonĀ sittingĀ acrossĀ fromĀ her.Ā sheĀ hadĀ filledĀ countlessĀ notebooksĀ withĀ meticulousĀ observations,Ā detailedĀ thoughts,Ā andĀ potentialĀ clues Ā thatĀ couldĀ helpĀ herĀ unravelĀ theĀ enigmaĀ heĀ presented.Ā sheĀ wasĀ determinedĀ inĀ herĀ questĀ toĀ gainĀ aĀ betterĀ understandingĀ ofĀ himĀ andĀ wasĀ notĀ oneĀ toĀ giveĀ upĀ easily.Ā despiteĀ herĀ persistentĀ efforts,Ā sheĀ hadĀ beenĀ unableĀ toĀ uncoverĀ anyĀ concreteĀ informationĀ thisĀ far,Ā whichĀ leftĀ herĀ feelingĀ increasinglyĀ dissatisfiedĀ andĀ frustratedĀ afterĀ eachĀ encounter.Ā nevertheless,Ā sheĀ hadĀ madeĀ upĀ herĀ mindĀ toĀ persistĀ andĀ delveĀ deeperĀ intoĀ theĀ mystery.
asĀ theĀ applauseĀ rangĀ out,Ā sheĀ couldnātĀ helpĀ butĀ flinchĀ involuntarily.Ā herĀ gazeĀ fixedĀ onĀ himĀ withĀ wideĀ eyesĀ asĀ sheĀ slowlyĀ cameĀ toĀ theĀ realizationĀ thatĀ sheĀ wasĀ correct.Ā itĀ wasĀ herĀ veryĀ firstĀ time,Ā andĀ sheĀ wasĀ atĀ aĀ lossĀ forĀ whatĀ toĀ doĀ orĀ say.Ā so,Ā sheĀ simplyĀ staredĀ atĀ himĀ forĀ aĀ fewĀ seconds,Ā tryingĀ toĀ gatherĀ herĀ thoughts.Ā afterĀ carefullyĀ placingĀ theĀ penĀ onĀ topĀ ofĀ theĀ book,Ā sheĀ playfullyĀ wigglesĀ herĀ indexĀ fingerĀ inĀ theĀ airĀ betweenĀ themĀ andĀ finallyĀ responds.Ā Ā āĀ YouĀ areĀ dressedĀ inĀ formalĀ attireĀ andĀ haveĀ anĀ airĀ ofĀ eleganceĀ aboutĀ you.Ā ā

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā HIS Ā CRIMSON Ā EYES Ā SEEMED Ā TO Ā ILLUMINATE Ā AS Ā HE Ā WATCHED Ā HER. Ā His Ā gaze Ā never Ā breaksā Ā a Ā little Ā uncanny Ā to Ā some, Ā but Ā that Ā was Ā just Ā fine Ā with Ā him. Ā His Ā smile Ā was Ā still Ā plastered Ā on Ā his Ā face, Ā head Ā now Ā at Ā a Ā tilted Ā angle Ā as Ā he Ā listened. Ā He Ā was Ā intrigued Ā to Ā say Ā the Ā least, Ā one Ā ear Ā flicked Ā before Ā almost Ā shifting Ā in Ā her Ā direction. Ā Perhaps Ā a Ā little Ā giddy Ā to Ā see Ā what Ā she Ā had Ā come Ā up Ā with. Ā After Ā all, Ā it Ā was Ā some Ā sort Ā of Ā game Ā to Ā him.Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā WHEN Ā SHE Ā SPOKE, Ā HE Ā LET Ā OUT Ā A Ā SMALL Ā HUM. Ā AND Ā then, Ā there Ā was Ā a Ā sudden Ā sound Ā of Ā applause Ā from Ā a Ā crowd, Ā ā Ā Well, Ā my Ā dear, Ā you Ā certainly Ā are Ā observant. Ā ā Ā he Ā leaned Ā back Ā into Ā his Ā own Ā chair Ā while Ā his Ā clawed Ā hand Ā reached Ā for Ā his Ā coffee.Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā INDEED Ā HE Ā DIDNāT Ā INDULGE Ā IN Ā ALCOHOLIC Ā BEVERAGES Ā AS Ā MUCH, Ā EVEN Ā when Ā he Ā was Ā human. Ā He Ā found Ā it Ā distasteful, Ā and Ā saw Ā the Ā way Ā people Ā lost Ā themselves Ā within Ā it. Ā He Ā saw Ā the Ā damage Ā it Ā could Ā cause Ā to Ā familiesā Ā he Ā had Ā felt Ā it Ā himself. Ā Alastorās Ā brows Ā narrowed Ā at Ā the Ā thought, Ā ā Ā I Ā do Ā steer Ā clear Ā of Ā the Ā more Ā sweet Ā flavors, Ā but Ā from Ā time Ā to Ā time Ā I Ā will Ā let Ā myself Ā have Ā one, Ā ā Ā never Ā his Ā favorite Ā because Ā again one Ā could Ā get Ā lost Ā in Ā the Ā taste, Ā and Ā lose Ā themselves, Ā ā Ā What Ā makes Ā you Ā think Ā whiskey Ā on Ā the Ā rocks? Ā ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā sheĀ liftedĀ herĀ oceanĀ orbsĀ toĀ meetĀ hisĀ gazeĀ onceĀ more.Ā aĀ waveĀ ofĀ curiosityĀ andĀ bewildermentĀ washedĀ overĀ herĀ asĀ sheĀ struggledĀ toĀ comprehendĀ whatĀ wasĀ writtenĀ amongĀ theĀ chaosĀ Ā ofĀ wordsĀ andĀ scribblesĀ scatteredĀ acrossĀ theĀ pagesĀ beforeĀ her.Ā theĀ taskĀ wasĀ provingĀ toĀ beĀ quiteĀ challenging,Ā asĀ herĀ ownĀ thoughtsĀ seemedĀ toĀ blurĀ togetherĀ likeĀ aĀ jumbledĀ messĀ inĀ herĀ mind,Ā threateningĀ toĀ derailĀ herĀ trainĀ ofĀ thoughtĀ atĀ anyĀ moment.Ā overwhelmedĀ byĀ theĀ sheerĀ complexityĀ ofĀ theĀ situation,Ā sheĀ couldnātĀ helpĀ butĀ feelĀ aĀ momentĀ ofĀ frustration.Ā theĀ pagesĀ seemedĀ toĀ holdĀ theĀ keyĀ toĀ aĀ mysteryĀ thatĀ sheĀ wasĀ desperateĀ toĀ solve,Ā butĀ theĀ answerĀ remainedĀ justĀ outĀ ofĀ reach.Ā sheĀ furrowedĀ herĀ browĀ inĀ deepĀ concentrationĀ andĀ releasedĀ aĀ softĀ sigh,Ā hopingĀ toĀ findĀ someĀ clarityĀ amidstĀ theĀ writing.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā sheĀ movedĀ herĀ penĀ effortlesslyĀ acrossĀ theĀ sheets,Ā encirclingĀ someĀ sentencesĀ thatĀ sheĀ deemedĀ importantĀ toĀ keepĀ inĀ mindĀ beforeĀ sheĀ resumedĀ speakingĀ withĀ theĀ penĀ nowĀ pointedĀ atĀ hisĀ cup.Ā ā DrinkingĀ isnātĀ yourĀ thing.Ā InsteadĀ ofĀ alcohol,Ā youĀ tendĀ toĀ stickĀ withĀ yourĀ blackĀ coffee. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā BUTĀ whenĀ youĀ doĀ decidedĀ toĀ indulge,Ā youĀ steerĀ clearĀ orĀ fruityĀ drinksĀ andĀ beer.Ā YourĀ preferencesĀ liesĀ inĀ somethingĀ moreĀ sophisticated.Ā MaybeĀ whiskeyĀ onĀ theĀ rocks. ā

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā HE Ā WAS Ā ALWAYS Ā ABOUT Ā GOOD Ā ENTERTAINMENT, Ā AND Ā THIS Ā YOUNG Ā LADY Ā was Ā proving Ā to Ā be Ā more Ā entertaining Ā than Ā the Ā hotel. Ā He Ā thrived Ā on Ā how Ā so Ā many Ā wanted Ā to Ā know Ā everything Ā about Ā him, Ā and Ā oh, Ā the Ā stories Ā so Ā many Ā thought Ā up Ā were Ā quite Ā amusing. Ā It Ā was Ā free Ā entertainment. Ā Why, Ā of Ā course Ā he Ā ate Ā it Ā all Ā up.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ALASTOR Ā SAT Ā PATIENTLY Ā WITH Ā HER, Ā SIPPING Ā HIS Ā COFFEE Ā WHILE Ā HIS Ā beloved Ā swing Ā music Ā spilled Ā out Ā of Ā the Ā old Ā radio Ā nearby. Ā He Ā watched Ā as Ā she Ā scribbled Ā on Ā a Ā piece Ā of Ā paper Ā all Ā morning Ā with Ā what Ā she Ā thought Ā she Ā gathered Ā of Ā him. Ā Alastor Ā had Ā never Ā seen Ā someone Ā so Ā dedicated Ā to Ā it, Ā ā Ā Hmm? Ā ā Ā his Ā head Ā tilted, Ā a Ā clawed Ā hand Ā placed Ā down Ā his Ā drink, Ā ā Ā Do Ā you? Ā ā Ā elbows Ā rested Ā on Ā the Ā table, Ā fingers Ā entwined, Ā and Ā his Ā chin Ā rested Ā on Ā top Ā while Ā he Ā leaned Ā in. Ā His Ā smile Ā widened, Ā ā Ā Enlighten Ā me, Ā my Ā dear. Ā ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā herĀ faceĀ isĀ fullĀ ofĀ concentrationĀ asĀ sheĀ gazesĀ atĀ theĀ paperĀ lyingĀ inĀ frontĀ ofĀ her.Ā sheĀ holdsĀ aĀ penĀ inĀ herĀ hand,Ā tappingĀ itsĀ tipĀ againstĀ theĀ pageĀ asĀ sheĀ strugglesĀ toĀ makeĀ senseĀ ofĀ theĀ scatteredĀ wordsĀ andĀ scribblesĀ thatĀ areĀ coveringĀ it. Ā herĀ determinationĀ isĀ evidentĀ withĀ eachĀ tapĀ -Ā sheĀ willĀ notĀ quitĀ untilĀ sheĀ hasĀ connectedĀ allĀ theĀ piecesĀ andĀ createdĀ aĀ cohesiveĀ wholeĀ fromĀ whatĀ sheĀ hasĀ jottedĀ downĀ soĀ far.Ā everyĀ nowĀ andĀ then,Ā sheĀ pausesĀ toĀ takeĀ aĀ deepĀ breathĀ andĀ glancesĀ upĀ atĀ @he11bambi,Ā thenĀ resumesĀ herĀ task.Ā " Okay.

your muse is allowed to underestimate my museĀ
your muse is allowed to disrespect my muse
your muse is allowed to provoke my muse
your muse is allowed to be a little asshole to my muse
and more ā !!
So long as you, the mun, understand the consequences of your muse ticking off my muse your muse is allowed to be not nice to mine. Confrontation can be interesting and fun to rp! I welcome it! While you, the mun, should know better than to provoke my muse your muse might not and thatās okay! Mun does not equal muse and vice versa. When your muse provokes mine, disrespects mine, underestimates mine, I am trusting that even if your muse doesnāt know the consequences that you, the other mun, understand there are repercussions for your muse being an asshole.
you want your muse to be an ass to mine? thatās fine ā just donāt whine when your muse doesnāt come out of it unscathed.Ā
