You have an hour before I take the invitation back.

[scions]

touchy
but alright alright, i'll probably be there in like ... five minutes. you're lucky I'm downtown today

[blazingbird]

I'm so ecstatic.

[scions]

it won't kill you to show some positive emotions for once, y'know.

[ But true to her word, she's there within a few minutes. Knock knock, motherfucker ]

[blazingbird]

Maybe one day. Maybe never.

[well, time to put his business stuff on hold]

Enter.

[scions]

[ Despite the casualness of her texts, Madsen's at least polite enough to wait until he gives her the go-ahead to actually open the door, giving a small wave before shutting it behind her. ]

You know, it's sad when the one who was called a hardass in her old squad is the one telling someone to loosen up.

[blazingbird]

[she has manners, he will give her that]

What has the world come to?

[he gets up from his chair and gestures to take seat on one of the sofas while he sits opposite of her]

You said you had questions?

[scions]

Great fucking question.

[ She takes a seat, though surprisingly she doesn't sprawl out or slump, back ramrod straight before she crosses her arms. Old habits. ]

A few. Granted I'm not sure if it'll work, but I'd rather at least try to see if I can get any more insight into ... this.

[ She lifts a hand up, flames dancing around it for a moment while her eyes flash gold before the flame's snuffed out. ]

When did you find out you weren't ... y'know.

[blazingbird]

[he looks at the flames dancing around her hand, face neutral as he stares before looking up at her eyes, seeing the change from gold back to it’s natural color.

taeseok remains silent, unsure whether he should tell her. it’s clear she’s just as confused as he is about what they are, seeking answers from any source they can find.

he won’t be much help to her and vice versa but he can take comfort in knowing he’s no longer alone]

When I was a child. My powers awoken as I slept. I woke up to find the home I was living in on fire and the family burned alive.

[he remains emotionless, refusing to show the pain that night still causes him but he can’t stop the way his hands are shaking on his lap]

[scions]

[ She watches him intently, the good humor from before already melted away into rapt attention, brows furrowed slightly. When he's done talking, she lowers her gaze slightly, frowning. ]

... I'm sorry.

I can say my case wasn't as tragic in that regard. I've known I've had powers since I've been a kid, it's a bloodline trait on my dad's side. But the other half of it ...

[ She almost slumps over, but immediately catches herself in the motion and straightens up, hands in her lap, though her hands are nearly white-knuckled in the process. ]

You're technically talking to a dead girl walking. Only reason why I'm even still here is because my partner saw to it. Though I doubt his intent was to cause me to become not completely human anymore.

[blazingbird]

Don't be.

[he can't help the small smile forming on face when he notices how she tries to sit proper]

If you want to sit comfortably, go right ahead.

[he gets up from his seat and heads over to where his alcohol is stored, grabbing a bottle of whiskey and two glasses before returning, pouring some in each]

At least you know where your abilities come from. I don't. It took years for me to figure out what I can do and how to control my powers.

[scions]

[ There's a few seconds pause before she relaxes, frowning still - she's sprawling out a little as she rests an elbow on the armrest, tapping her fingers against her cheek. ]

You don't have any ideas?

[blazingbird]

No. The only lead I have is a young college boy by the name of Kiyong whom I briefly bumped into while in America. Whether he has the answers I'm looking for, that remains to be seen.

Yeah, I don't believe you.

[burrowedtime]

Why not? I wouldn't lie about that.
It'd seriously piss Ava off if I pulled something like that
Uh make her mad I mean.

[blazingbird]

If I find out later on that you and my daughter have moved past friendship, I'm roasting you and feeding you to the wolves.

[burrowedtime]

[JESUS H. CHRIST

how many of those wolves is he related to]

Understood sir

[blazingbird]

[he controls a wolf and his family, boy]

Good. You better hope it doesn't come down to that.

[burrowedtime]

[so ... several]

Not a fan of roasting, can confirm

[blazingbird]

Good. As long as you behave, there will be no roasting. :)

[burrowedtime]

I was always behaving, for the record

[blazingbird]

I'll believe it when I see it.

[burrowedtime]

I don't know how to show good behavior over text sir

[blazingbird]

And I see you want to get roasted.

[burrowedtime]

No tone just seriousness!
