You reach out and take one of her hands. "Why are you putting me to memory, Alessa?"

"Do you know me?" you whisper, drowning in the heat that is Hadrian. Does anyone?

Petty Jealousy β€” Pirate, Neia, Rafael & Vallen

Light sailed across the open sky like trails of salt in the current's wake. Sunlight seemed heavy, lazy, almost tangible, as if all it'd take was for you to reach out and grab it.

You do just that, gloved hand lifting up, but when you close your fingers, not even air remains.

"You loo...

Hadrian kisses you with the slow, patient devotion of an oak tree reaching for the sunlight.

Alessa kisses you with the slow inevitability of a frozen stream melting into running water.

To meet or not to meet?

I just finished writing all the Vallen-themed conversations you can have with the others, and I got curious. How many of you will see them? How many of you went to meet Vallen at the eastern garden?

Lance fills his plate, as does Alessa. You step forward, about to serve yourself, but two hands reach for your bowl.

Lance and Hadrian stop and look at each other. Then, as one, they look at you.

Take me Back β€” Pirate, Neia, Rafael, Vallen & Lance

His whole body seals shut. Muscles tighten, jaw locks, and shoulders tense until a knife-like pressure sinks into his spine. Ebony eyes stare at you through long strands of black hair, his chin lowered, his face completely still. View Post

I left the clothes descriptions as placeholders because I am awful at describing clothes and even worse at imagining them.
