Ðαgяαи‌:
continued from here with @yurick​
If Yurick had been any more like Zael Dagran might have offered a hug, but since Yurick was Yurick and Dagran was Dagran he had opted for patting his head in an attempt to express his sympathies. The sight wasn’t pretty if anything it was unsettling and nothing Dagran wanted to rest his eyes on for long. No matter how many burnt bodies he saw they just never got any easier to look at. But while he saw no use in lingering on something they couldn’t fix no matter how badly they wanted to, Yurick was clearly more affected and needed some form or comfort. (Hypocrite the voice in his head mocked, and anxiety sneered at that thought.)
Admittedly he hadn’t thought much about the gesture, other than thinking that he shouldn’t go for a hug Dagran had acted almost absent-mindedly when he’d placed the hand on his head, gently patting it in hopes of making him feel a little better and if not that, letting him know that he wasn’t alone.
Without a word, but with an expression that clearly said he hadn’t meant to overstep his boundaries Dagran withdrew his hand, leaving his raised as he backed away a little to show that he would give him his distance now.
Dagran’s gaze wandered the village which the war had razed to the ground with a motionless face. There was nothing to do for them here, they couldn’t stay and rebuilt it. All they could do was salvage what was left and look for any survivors. When the sight made him think of Zael an old ache tugged at his heart but Dagran fought it down, just like the hot rage that coiled in his stomach because he wanted it to stay put.
Somebody had to keep a clear head and that somebody was him. “Just give a sign when you’re ready.”
               The taste in his mouth is bitter on his dry tongue as he forced back the slow-rising bile that had been building at the back of his throat, starting to clog until air stuttered in his chest and he forced himself to take a slow, deep breath. It was a hard sight to look away from, with the way their skin was crisped up, deeply blackened from whatever their original skin tone had been, and how their limbs were twisted in unnatural patterns with some entirely missing. He yearned to look away and move on, yet something kept his eye on the destruction.
              Who knew who had even started the fight this time? The longer the war raged on, the more the sides seemed to blur together. Gurak, The Empire, the people — it was all a mash of hatred and never-ending anger that just went on and on and on. What a force the fires of war could be, to cause such harm in what had probably once been a calm, peaceful town full of bright life and happy people (not that anybody ever could ever be happy in these times of constant struggle). Fire, itself, used in such a destructive force... it made him sick, sick in a sense he couldn’t shake, sick in a sense that curled around his gut and forced it up his throat and nostrils until all he could taste and smell was fire and war and burning skin and death, a red-hot death that left entire towns covered in ash and soot and death-
               Gods.
               He was going to make himself sick if he looked any longer, and what a disservice that would be to his front as an aloof character.
               Yurick stepped back, away from the broken bits of wood he had approached to peer into what had probably once been a family’s home, gaze carefully settled on the ground as he tested the weight of his tongue before he spoke.

  klaus blinks. under any other circumstance, this would be a perfectly ordinary thing   to have happen to him. malfunctioning lighter, no lighter at all, or someone’s just   feeling particularly friendly  —  whatever it is, when someone does the favour of   lighting his cigarettes for him, the general response is to thank them and move on,   perhaps enjoy a companionable smoke. thing is  —  most people don’t do it with a   snap of their fingers alone.
         ❝     holy shit!     ❞
  alright, so it’s not a particularly dignified reaction, but since when has klaus ever   aimed for dignified? fingers curl around the other’s wrist, vice-like, as he studies   the hand caught within his grasp, as though answers would be clearly visible to   widened eyes. was this one of the forty-three? simple sleight-of-hand?
         ❝     how’d you do that? hey, uh  —     ❞
  he extinguishes the burning tip of the joint against the wall, holding it out to the   other once more, gaze bright and anticipatory.
Tumblr media
         ❝     do it again.     ❞
               It’s a simple and fast sleight of hand. Usually taken as the click of a lighter turning on or snapping open, rarely anyone thought to question the noise or the motion until their cigarette has already been lit and his hand has been safely tucked away in his pocket, unable to leave anyone questioning the gesture. Perhaps he’s not particularly careful with hiding what he’d dubbed ‘magic’, but it’s not like he’d go around showcasing off his burning talents. There had yet to be an instance where he was caught in the act — that was, until now.
               The stranger’s grip had been snappy like a viper, quick to wrap his fingers around Yurick’s wrist, which had already begun to move to slide into his pocket as the situation would usually go. It wasn’t particularly tight (non-threatening, he’d say), just a simple, fanatical curiosity about what had just taken place, what happened to make the cigarette light so smoothly without the usual contraption. A well placed inquisitiveness, but Yurick wasn’t particularly up for answering questions about his fire.
               A blank (no, it was not a panicked look) stare found its way to the stranger blankly, uncertain what to say, how to explain what  — really, how was he supposed to answer how he did it? it was second nature  — had just happened. Luckily, the stranger saved him from the lapse into an awkward silence, because he was already moving to snub out the burning tip (really? he just lit that), and hold it back out with an anticipation so eager that Yurick almost felt bad for not wanting to, and yet, he moved to ignite it again anyway.
              Without the need to replicate the noise of a lighter, the flame came forth with a small wave of his fingers curling in, fire hovering just between the tip of his index finger and his thumb, before he gestured the small flame to the cylinder in the stranger’s grasp, relighting it once again.

?:
Almost didn’t survive what? A bomb strapped to his neck. Stab wounds to his torso. Countless bullets fired his way. Jeremiah was confident there was nothing he could not weather. Though that did little to settle his mind in his first stirring moments. His mind reeled with uncertainty and questions. As the fog clouding his mind began to clear, the Unknown before him became the centre of his focus.
Tumblr media
Ghostly pale eyes winced painfully as Jeremiah shot up from where he lay, though he made no sound to make known his weakness. Deftly, the scalpel slid from his sleeve and flipped open–an extension of himself pressed to the Unknown’s throat. “Who are you? Where I am? What have you done to me?” The words spat cold and accusatory with venom. With those like Strange lurking in the shadows, nobody was to be trusted–no matter how innocent their appearance.
               The cold touch of the sudden scalpel pressed into his pale throat, but it had yet to draw any blood- the other before him was threatening him with a warning for information, no plan to kill as of yet. Its sharp curvature restricted much movement from his throat, but he could still speak without risk of digging it into his skin, less he move his head much while he did so.
              With a lack of fear in his calm expression, he seemed to be taking the other man in, studying his mistrustful gaze. Innocent could be one way to describe Yurick's appearance. He was certainly on the younger side of adulthood, skin still soft from youth and, despite its silver colour, his hair was thick, different sections drawn back into braids, but his eyes implied a different story; a cool, hardened gaze of icy blue examined the person before him, unafraid of his accusatory words no matter the harsh implications that lay behind the questions. The innocence of youth certainly did not lay with him anymore.

Vααтι:
Tumblr media
“Oy. Look. I’m not going to die from a flesh wound. So when I say it’s just a scratch, it’s just a scratch. A big… gaping… scratch…” Vaati would press the fabric of his cape against the wound with a grimace. “We need to keep moving.” Of course, had Vaati been honest about the wound, different action could have been taken.
               Most people wouldn’t describe a scratch as ‘big’ and ‘gaping’, so Yurick had to bite back his remark of ‘bullshit’ when he heard the words come from Vaati’s mouth.
               The job wasn’t supposed to go like this. Simple and sweet, maybe with a touch of excitement thrown in, that being the reason only he was tasked with protecting the other man, but nothing like the overwhelming rush of bandits that had come at them. Yurick could hold his own, and it seemed his client could to some extent (ignoring the injury he currently suffered now), but the wave of new coming attackers resulted in the action of flight. Some would consider it cowardice, but he prefer to be alive than killed by something like a bandit.

Cσυит Aяgαиαи·:
“Yurick! That’s a wonderful name.” The Countess of Melodia beamed at him, and Arganan wondered how Yurick wasn’t dying of the pure radiance of Tahirah’s smile. “It’s very nice to meet you, too.” She looked to her dancers, thanking them and calling them off, and in an instant, they vanished. Arganan suspected that the dancers probably had teleportation charms on them, or magic themselves, to do such a thing.
“Working for Count Arganan, huh?” A man with brown hair tied back in a ponytail and darker skin came over to Tahirah’s side, grinning at Yurick. “Nice.” His red shirt contrasted with his black pants and shoes.
“Oh, Nuriel,” A man with blond hair currently let loose approached them as well, wearing a white tunic and blue trousers with boots. “Let’s get back to the matter at hand?”
“Alright, Arlyn…”
“I’ll have my servants show you to your rooms.” Arganan managed, looking to the Coutness and her two advisors/ bodyguards. 
Tahirah grinned back at him this time. “Thank you! We appreciate your hospitality…”
The Count ordered a few servants to take Tahirah and her two bodyguards/advisors to their rooms, before Jirall spoke up, staring.
“She…isn’t going to have more of those numbers, is she?”
The Count looked to him. “Lord Jirall, I make no promises regarding that.”
The younger man groaned, but soon sauntered off. Arganan looked briefly in the direction of where Tahirah and her servants were going.
“OHMYGOODNESS CALISTA!” He heard Tahirah half-shout with joy, the gasping of Calista and potentially a few other servants being heard from down the hall. “IT’S BEEN SO LONG SINCE WE LAST SAW YOU!”
Arganan almost laughed. Countess Tahirah was a strange individual, as well as her advisors and bodyguards, he knew, but also had this kindness that either threw one off forever or was (arguably) endearing. Strange, he supposed, but good. 
               ❝Thank you?❞
               There wasn’t anything special about his name as far as he knew; he didn’t even know what it meant. It was difficult to mask how put off he was by this Countess. She seemed so bright and kind in comparison to everyone else, noble or not. Unsettling, really, to come across someone who seemed to happy in the darkness of their current world state. None of the mercenaries had the pep in their step like she did. Syrenne was a spitfire, certainly, and Lowell a charmer, but they weren’t outwardly bright like the Countess appeared to be. 
               His focus shifted to the man who stepped up to the Countess’s side as he was addressed yet again. Yurick had expected, hoped, to be ignored by all the newly approaching people, preferring to stick the sides and observe (and what a sight this would’ve been to observe from a perspective that wasn’t constantly being... butted into). Count Arganan seemed a more likely target for their attentions, but a new face must have been why they were so drawn to him like moths to an awkward, quiet flame in their presence.
               Nuriel’s comment of nice seemed to suggest a number of things that Yurick wasn’t prepared to pick up on. Was it of pride for working for the ruler of an island, or was it more sarcastic, like Yurick didn’t know what he was getting into? Not that it mattered much, it was Dagran who had chosen the job.
               A small relief swept over him as all the newcomers prepared to make their leave, the claustrophobic sense of being crowded around by too many people beginning to drift from his heightened senses. He hadn’t felt any danger with his magic, but being the asocial individual he was, the discomfort of being introduced and talking to so many people all at the same time was, in an understatement, overwhelming.
Tumblr media
               Yurick looked to the Count, uncertain whether he should take his leave now or be dismissed.
