Thread: Girl in the Fire, Boy in the Storm (Absinth and Enigma)

I did not, actually. I decided he needed a wife because he needs a wife. I can't be there to mother him all the time and, honestly, I just think he needs someone who is as volatile as him to handle him. I never dreamed he'd pick someone who is basically identical to him as far as your expressions of distaste and rage goes. As you have probably seen, he's not exactly the most subtle person. More likely to stab you in the front, rather than the back She explained, actually offering her the glass before she took it I once figured a husband might do him better but, while he does like men too, he rarely ever gets along with them. I think he'd more than likely hatefuck a guy rather than actually date them. I was kinda counting on him picking some cute little thing that'd dote on him rather than... some hot little hellbitch who'd more likely use him as a scratching post and discard of him than... wait this analogy is getting a little lost The female licked her lips as she stared at the glass, trying to find the best way to answer her. After a moment, she finally responded Yes, and no, to the whole Being one soul thing. We are what is colloquially known as Greykin, or, THose touched by the Grey. We are... we play host to an extrauniversal being known as, simply, The Grey. It lives as we lives and spreads to our children when we have them, and it affords us abilities, and... perks. Listing the numerous things we could potentially do, what we can do, and what we get for this is fairly lengthy but the short version of it is that we are unbound by fate Think of it like this. Everyone has a set path that they go down which we would call a timeline, and our fated timeline governs the direction we go in. For someone like Daniel, or myself, we can simply turn off that path and create a new one at will. We effectively create those smaller branches off the larger branches of a tree She explained to her, then shrugged Daniel and I are... I don't know if we really are part of the same being, if we're being honest. We're anomalies in our family line. Going back at least 7 generations, every child born to the Carver family has been male, and has been named Daniel. I was the first girl in 7 generations, and Daniel and I ended up being twins. You might actually be on to something, but I'd have to get Carmina to actually look at our souls and see what's going on there Danielle chuckled, not giggled, but chuckled as she nodded and took a sip of her drink, handing it to the female before she slid her socks off and dipped her feet into the pool. You should wear some of Carmina's clothing, especially her undergarments. Her understanding of the Aether is so much more complete than mine is, so she understands how to make things that defy reason, where as I can only make things that makes sense. The closest I ever came to anything like what she can do is those boots I made you. It's kinda like you're not even wearing shoes, isn't it? She thought about the question some before replying When mom and dad died is when Daniel broke first. I was... I was taken away by... someone when that happened, so I don't know all the details, just what I've been told. Kimiko's death was the next time that happened. I felt that one happen, where I was. He was so... so angry. There was nothing but rage in his... in our hearts at the time. It got to him so badly that even I went mad, but I think I snapped back from it where as he just... She stared into the water and kicked her feet idly, shaking her head I know how it is to be a werewolf. The hunger for flesh, how volatile it is, how easy it can be to snap. What Daniel had... has... it's so much worse than that. She went silent as though she were remembering it, her eyes distant as she stared into the water. If you like I can set up some little incense candles so you can locate stuff by smell' She said rather suddenly, her gaze going back to normal as she turned to look at her, grinning brightly At least then you'd be able to find your way around, right?
