Hes hearing things, ignore him.

He’ll buy his own. And if she doesn’t mind, he’ll buy her a drink as well. As a thank you for the distraction. And emotional support.

[—; 𝒮ʟᴀɪɴᴇ 𝒢ʀᴀᴠᴇs ˎˊ˗ Little Enigma @FlaringHumanity]

The fox shouldn't have heard anything to begin with.
But I'm also not your bartender so you can either mix your own or buy your own at the local tavern.

Heck, I'll even throw a song in.

I'm there for emotional support, not manual labor.

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

He barked out a laugh.

Whiny? I’ll have you know I’m an emissary. We prefer the term 𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘥.

[𝔣𝔢𝔶𝔯𝔢, 𝔡𝔞𝔯𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔤 @beaconofnight]

as dramatic as them, too, lucien. is it the fire in your blood? or are all males just born this whiny?

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

“Good. That’s—that’s good. The farther you are from there the better.”

His smile wavered when she asked how he was. Should he answer honestly?

“I’ve been well. Depending on the day. But overall surviving.”

[— 𝐄𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄 @daughtercfash]

‘ I’m out of the autumn court for now.. so yes, I’m well for now. ’ she nods.

‘ come, enough of me. Tell me how you’re fairing? ’

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

. . .

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

He’s going to pray he heard that first part wrong.
Cauldron boil him—

A very strong drink. Please.

[—; 𝒮ʟᴀɪɴᴇ 𝒢ʀᴀᴠᴇs ˎˊ˗ Little Enigma @FlaringHumanity]

...
...

OH you mean like — me? HAHA (isecretlyenjoyederisnipplesshhhh)

Let's buy you a drink, Inferno Ken. Before you set fire to Prince of the Leaf Pile's hair, or something.

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

He takes her hand to get up with her help.

“As well as you can be?” He repeats, not sure if he should press the topic further.

[— 𝐄𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄 @daughtercfash]

Giving him a playful look upon hearing his old nickname. Nudging him gently before shifting to stand, offering her hand to aid him up.

‘ as well as I can be, ’

meaning, the same as if can, and most likely always will be..

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

It’s a normal reaction to have!

Ginger Snap may need a distraction yes—

[—; 𝒮ʟᴀɪɴᴇ 𝒢ʀᴀᴠᴇs ˎˊ˗ Little Enigma @FlaringHumanity]

Sitting still and watching Lucien have a panic attack at the sight of his brother shirtless.

Should I... Does The Ginger Snap need help?

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

GASP.

You wound me so. I am not like them. In any sense of the word.

Obviously not.

Hmph. 😤

[𝔣𝔢𝔶𝔯𝔢, 𝔡𝔞𝔯𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔤 @beaconofnight]

the entire vanserra family is, apparently, deeply promiscuous. and don’t start acting like you’re any better.

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

That’s all he wanted to add.

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

Excuse me—
Ahem—
*cups his hands around his mouth and YELLS*

𝗚𝗢 𝗚𝗘𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗠𝗔𝗡 𝗚𝗜𝗥𝗟!

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

I never want to see my brother’s nipples out again.

I can’t even believe that has to be something I say /out loud/. Ugh.

[𝔣𝔢𝔶𝔯𝔢, 𝔡𝔞𝔯𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔤 @beaconofnight]

that makes two of us.

ACOTAR OC account for 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝘆𝗻𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗿 of the autum court.

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

People hear the word emissary and imagine something terribly glamorous. The Day Court, knowledge is currency practically. Dawn Court, hospitality. Autumn Court—best to avoid them, if you can. I know from experience.

I’m more interested in the priestess side of things.

[𝙜𝙬𝙮𝙣 @STRAWBERRYVALK]

However, there is not much to tell.

... surely your knowledge is more, but I have been able to read a lot of the courts and some works that the priestesses do.

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

@N0TADOLL —than he wished it did.

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

@N0TADOLL —today,” he said, the ghost of a crooked smile tugging at one corner of his mouth. “They’re dreadfully persistent.”

Silence settled between them momentarily.

“I wasn’t—ahem. I wasn’t— following you. I was just passing through.” He felt like the explanation might matter more—

[𝓛𝓾𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷 𝓥𝓪𝓷𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓪 @OneEyedFlame]

“It’s true, little flame.” He said, a smile on his lips at the old nickname for her.

“I’ve missed you greatly. It’s good to see you. You look well. Are you doing okay?”

[— 𝐄𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄 @daughtercfash]

She’s never smiled so big in years.. hugging him tighter for just a moment longer before releasing, shifting enough to glance at her old friend.

‘ they told me you lived in Velaris now but.. gosh I just didn’t believe it~! ’
