Hubrisssssssss. The presence flickered, only for a moment, between rage and amusement. Jin took those precious seconds to replenish the breath he'd been holding. It was only on rare occasion that someone woke the chained one, but at those times, the curses were at their most oppressive. The...

You're right...naming such a fell creature could be...well, that's not what we're talking about now, is it? His eyebrow raised curiously. Wasn't it, though? She quickly dismissed the notion as if it were preposterous, but Jin blinked slowly. When he opened his eyes, he watched her blood...

The brazen man who'd tipped the drink looked in no mood to reconcile before the woman stepped in and offered a drink. Peacemaker type, perhaps? Jin didn't take his eyes off of the man who continued to grumble begrudgingly until he had his drink safely in hand. Only then did the offending party...

Ba-dum. Ba-dum. Ba-dum. The normal sound of his heartbeat played loudly in his ears as the Bloodsworn sat, swirling his index finger around the lip of his half-empty glass. It was past midday and the streets were bustling, but it was far too early for happy hour. Instead of doing quests or the...

You're more like Jin than you realize. Theo regarded Ari with a quiet, thoughtful gaze as he tilted his head and considered the comment. Perhaps the notion had been ingrained by his behaviors in and outside of the game that there were differences between the two; and if that were the case, Theo...

Lucidity 4 > 3 Stand. Bow. Sit. As much as one could hope for an eventful day, it never came. The preamble was measured and scripted, and everything that came after it blended together. These were supposed to be the best years, the most exciting years of their lives. People talked about how...

Almost did. "Horseshoes and hand grenades," Theo joked, citing an old maxim that held morbidly true. "Looks like you beat the Reaper, this time." There was a pause while both men polished off their burgers, then Ari passed him a pop. With a swig, he considered what it meant to have people...

Jin watched, transfixed. The birds gave themselves over to temptation, and would could blame them? Such an occaison was beyond rarity, and someone now dangled meat in front of carrion birds.

"Hell yeah," Theo sounded triumphant as he caught the bag and tore into it like a hungry alley cat. The smell of fresh hot French fries blasted his nostrils and he could hear his stomach making almost inhuman sounds. With zero regard for how hot the golden spuds were, he grabbed a handful and...

AP:: 0/3 1 AP spent Location: Camp !Hope Prompt: Camp EX+ Champion Edition Redux Narrator Tag: N/A The fact that they were able to restore the Encampment so quickly was a testament to the group's resourcefulness as well as their power. Unfortunately, though they seemed to be friendly enough...

He groaned reluctantly at the sound of a human voice other than his mother's at the door. His original plan had been to sleep and take a shower before diving once more, but this elicited a loud, unexpected growl from his stomach that made Theo hastily- albeit begrudgingly- reconsider. "Yeah...
