Good or bad, it’s all playacting.
If you act well, you can fool other people;
if you do it badly, you can only fool yourself,
and when you can’t even fool yourself,
you can only fool the ghosts.

( More often than not, the problem with Marius is - was, Petrana thinks, mutely horrified and unable to immediately look away - that his arrogance is not unwarranted. Magic as music and Marius is a symphony, a prodigal talent; he is not helpless, he is hard to take off-guard. To see it done is terrifying, a show of power unmatched that she cannot but be afraid of - to watch him die is awful.

When Sarra reaches for them, Petrana flinches, stiffening under her hand and cradling Veda closer to herself as if to protect her -

One day, she may be grateful.

Today, in a voice ragged with the pain of loss, she screams for the guardsmen that would have been so much closer by her had she not been at her husband's side, and Sarra and Charis will need to move very quickly to get them all safely from this encampment. )

hey nat hey nat guess what it's a cdc au

a restless reststop.
( quicknotes on peter for u )
he's currently running with cdc under the alias of sigourney velvet,
a venusian movie star in a lot of spy/action thrillers. he does all his
own stunts, which is clearly why he's very good with knives... /sweats.

whether sarra is privy to his real name is up to you! roll it how you like.

[ selena-vii reminds peter of those beautiful venusian resorts that he's had more than his fair share of stopping at. beautiful sim-beaches as far and wide as the eye can see, excited and theatrically oozing from every pore the city has.

it's perfect.

peter tries not to make attachments he can't keep, he tries not to get... attached. as it stands now, he's the furthest from anyone he can possibly be, behind the glass of someone else. he's so far encased in it, sometimes when he looks in the mirror, peter nureyev seldom crosses his mind (sometimes when he looks in the mirror, he grabs the edges until it hurts and says his name over and over again, a swear to never forget, to never never forget.)

the girl has potential, which is why peter decides he'll scoop her up before anyone else has the chance to. she's got something about her that he's latched onto, a driven kind of fury that's buried deep, surging up with little hungry tendrils and snapping when given only the slightest berth.

why he finds himself caring enough to approach her during the rest stop when they've only interacted a handful of times is still nipping at the back of his mind, but.

you never know if you don't try. mag certainly believed the same in him. you see untapped potential, you grab it, and you start to spin.

pulling down a pair of sunglasses he'd snatched from a rather ditzy-looking passerby's pockets, a pretentious cut, sharp at the edges like a cat's eye and an outstanding shade of indigo and blue, he smiles with all of his extraordinarily sharp teeth. ]


There'll be plenty of time for sun, my dear, [ he drawls in sigourney's clever little accent, something beautiful he'd pick up off an ionian boat. it's sweet and sibilant, exotic, but not too annoying. ] I've a proposal for you and time is of the essence.

And that is why I'm offering it to you. Quick as a whip.

[ was someone sitting in this chair next to you? no? cool. peter moves forward just a bit, taking a seat, all the while his eyes benignly shift between sarra and her companion lounging at her side. he's never seen her without the dragon really, even during missions. he's careful not to move too quickly while taking a seat, merely leaning back and crossing one knee over the other. ]

A little bird by the name of Dagger told me that you're in a bit of a bind and could use some...

[ he waves a hand vaguely before resting his elbow on the arm of the chair and using his knuckles to prop his chin up rather thoughtfully. this is not a lie, as much as peter would have liked it to be. dagger isn't frightening per se, but he is stranger than anything peter has come across before. but extra credit is extra credit and peter figures he can share. ]

Supplementary. Missions. Nothing too difficult mind you, but a little practice never hurt anyone and our team leader has a few errands he needs run before we leave planetside.

Squandered potential perhaps.

[ peter eyes the little flash of movement in sarra's lap, keeping his hands in his own, exactly where they can be seen. from what he's observed, charis has quite the mind of his own and he would rather remain as much on the "ambiguously neutral" side of his temperament as he can. tolerated, at best. he looks her in the eyes and offers her a non-committal shrug at that. ]

Reclaiming some documents. [ he says it with a smile, knowing it's not completely an answer. ] And along with that, a lesson in distracting the target here and a little lecture in liesmithery there and we should get through it all with flying colors. Completely harmless stuff, I assure you, but all necessary.

I appear to have gotten into a bit of a bind, my dear.

I don't normally make this a habit, but! First time for everything, right?

[personal profile] thieving 2017-05-18 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Well do enjoy yourself. I've certainly done enough squirming in my life, what's a bit more, I suppose.



You know, that's not as awful sounding as it looked.

you're his favorite child

[personal profile] thieving 2017-05-18 01:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Only to you! I've said nothing to warrant those sorts of thoughts on your part.

And I was wondering, darling sister, how possible causing a minor power outage would be?

hate is such a strong word.

[personal profile] thieving 2017-05-18 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I see your point. Though I'd like to have it be put on record that I consider myself less of a "squirmer" in that department. "Writhing" sounds more poetic.

[ you brought this upon yourself when you adopted him. ]

That aside, that's precisely what I need you to do. Someone's gone and tripped the alarms and thrown the facility into lockdown. Very bad for me. I'd planned for something similar to this, but it seems they've increased their security and the last guard I saw had sizeable biceps.

[ the kind that don't just snap toothpicks like peter in two. they turn them into splinters. tiny splinters. teeny bitty ones. ]

This place is lit up like Christmas on Venus--I need a blackout.

[personal profile] thieving 2017-05-18 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that's definitely "squirming."

[ as if he wouldn't admit to this. ]

Being within touching distance of me isn't likely, I'm afraid. I'm in the belly of the beast, so to speak. A janitor's closet. An offensively small janitor's closet. So small, in fact, that I've become rather intimate friends with a mop that's seen better days.

It just means I'll have to show you one day!

[ his lack of shame has earned him a very lovely lady's affections okay??? ]

It's very insistent. I'm not too fond of its perfume either: eau du filthy washroom. The hairstyle is rather unique, however. Points for that much at least.

[ alright nureyev, let's get serious. ]

You should have a map of the area on your blackglass. You'll want to go to the western half of the complex. I'll send you an updated file with the box highlighted as well as a rendezvous point. You'll go there, work your magic, and I should be able to regroup with you in no more than seven minutes and... oh let's say forty-three seconds after that.

Sound like a plan?


[ he's nothing if not precise okay. ]

You'll have to pick up a couple more, then.

[ He'll speak whatever he wants!! Earth English! Brahmese! Venusian! He's got a lot! ]

My very own knights in shining armor, a very hard deal to pass up, but if I don't come out in time, I want you to leave.

These aren't people we want to fight head on right now.

If I have room for the Callistan Waltz or Martian Foxtrot, you have it in you to squeeze in a few more languages.

And yes, that is precisely what I mean. I want you to leave. Depart. Vamoose. Skedaddle. Scoot.

Only if I don't make it out within that time. I assure you that I'm 99.99999999999998% certain I will succeed.

No time to linger on the prospect of failure, darling.

I gave you other options to choose from! Skedaddling! Departing! Vamoosing! You have choices, isn't that grand?

[personal profile] thieving 2017-05-23 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
It doesn't stop me from hoping that one day you'll heed my advice.

Good good, open it up and give the entire thing a good jolt. No need to be delicate about it. That should be enough to take out the complex at least until the back up generator tries to boot itself up.

In that time, I should be on my way to you.

[personal profile] thieving 2017-05-23 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Why is it that I fill my life with such a stubborn lot?

[ he doesn't respond to the last bit. luck is something he tries to avoid relying on, even if in the end, sometimes he just happens to be incredibly lucky. whether or not this entity of "luck" finds him fitting to cling to, well, that's completely up to it.

it takes some doing and peter is certainly cutting it close by seconds, but his escape route doesn't fail him (one of too many, some woulds say, one of just the right number peter would correct.) seconds to spare, peter is sprinting towards sarra's familiar shape behind the building, all smiles and teeth.

forty-two... forty-three... ]


There she is, [ he laughs. ] My hero, in the flesh.

[personal profile] thieving 2017-05-28 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ peter can smell the little crackle of sarra's magic in the air. even if she isn't stirring up storms, she smells like she's been embraced by one. he lands on the ground beside her and she dashes for him, hair all static and gold. peter enfolds her in his arms, burying one hand in her hair, the other pressing her close to him in a fast embrace.

he can feel his own heart trying to permanently jackhammer itself against her from his running, from the thrill of the chase, having sprinted out like greased lightning as they'd say back in the day.

when he can pull himself a little free, he drops a quick kiss onto the top of her brow, grinning. ]


Trouble? I'd hardly call this trouble. A minor setback, perhaps, but it all turned out just fine, didn't it?

you like work and paper and when they're not necessarily in that order, right?

[ it's been a long day at the end of a very long week. summer meant no school, which was good. it also meant extra shifts at canelo's, which was less good, except on every other friday. gabe would need new clothes for school come fall and there was another book his social worker recommended. only you can't get textbooks like that for less than a few bills for some reason. between the hours here at the auto body and eli demanding most of his night, robbie had almost nodded off under the suspension of a f-250. twice.

around 9:30pm he finally forced himself to take a meal break. gabe was at a friend's for a sleepover, so robbie didn't have to worry about getting home. that didn't mean it was a convenient time for this random blonde woman to show up out of nowhere?? especially when she so clearly did not belong here. comic-con. ren faire. hollywood maybe, but not here.

robbie sighed, wishing for a coffee and setting his turkey sandwich down on the hood of the charger. ]


Look, I didn't say your "quest" or whatever was stupid. I just said I don't have time for it and I'd really prefer if you didn't start anything in my neighborhood.
