The Darkest Corners: A Modern Fantasy RP (Interest Thread - Closed)

"For the billionth time, it is just a business trip!" John said.

"Right, just like Detroit was just a 'business trip.'" Said agent Pam on the other side (just incase anyone was paying attention to him talk, his cover is less likely to be blown when the other agent was actually having a conversation back.)

"That was a drunken mistake! I love you," John said, looking visibly agitated (but wasn't).

"Then why are you telling me so little on this 'emergency business trip', WHEN WILL YOU BE BACK?" She screamed (John wondered how the PIA always got these voice actors from).

"Unknown, unknown, unknown. You know what? I will be flying shortly, going to sleep like the undead, will be transforming to France as soon as I get there, and will be watching 'Snakes on a Plane' as soon as I wake up, SO GOOD NIGHT," John cut the conversation there, rubbing the sides of his temples. "Don't over act," John thought, "Don't over act..."

John looked to the boarding desk, trying to see how much longer this plane is delayed. "When will this plane take off?"

 

[Viking Incognito]

Saturday noticed the undead hovering by the one he called a half demon and made a mental note to find out what kind of undead he was. The juju surrounding him was so thick that it was somewhat distracting.

It has to be some kind of magic, because he isn't a zombie, and certainly not a Loa.

He noticed the badly hidden code words being used by someone on the phone, talking about the undead and the snake-woman. He had heard federal agents communication many times before, and this was no different. He didn't hear anything about himself though, so he wasn't worried.

He let his gaze wander, as he was in no hurry, and it fell upon the odd pair of the girl with dragon juju, and the small bird she was talking too.

Right away, Saturday noticed that the bird had human Juju. Specifically human, not something supernatural that can turn into a bird, just human. The quivering of it's juju showed that it wasn't quite natural. It had been tainted.

So the bird form must be some kind of curse then, something forced on him.

Saturday gave a small whistle, a bird call. He was sure it would attract the not-really-bird's attention.

 

[Floris2123]

Theon was sitting next to Seras. She had placed her head on his shoulder and he had placed his arm around her. He had a bright smile on his face, however on the inside he wasn't smiling nearly as bright. He was very worried about Seras' family. And it was clear that if Nicole hadn't been there to watch Dominic, Dominic would have been a lot less pleasant. There was something about an overprotective vampire father that scared him.

Theon looked at his backpack which contained quite a lot of equipment, but most noteworthy was his grandfathers grimoire. While Theon didn't even know if he could cast magic, his grandfather had insisted that he took it along anyway. The only reason that Theon had accepted, was because there were many recipes in the book. Recipes for salves and potions. Quite a few of them were designed to contain werewolves on a full moon. It was worth looking into, the alternative was running into the woods and resisting to shift for 12 hours. He has complete control over his body, but the werewolf side still has some power on a full moon.

Theon's goodbye with his family had been more than awkward. A werewolf doesn't leave the pack, not even for a vacation. So when the son of the alpha decided to go on a vacation, for a few years with his Dhampir girlfriend, it was quite the event. His father had allowed him to go, but he did have to promise to return eventually. "You know Theon, whilst I do love and respect my father and my family as a whole; I'll be glad when it is just us." Seras remarked quietly to Theon. Theon smiled at her and whispered just as silent. "I will be glad when it is just the two us too. Though I can understand your father's concern." Theon wouldn't miss this vacation for the world.

 

[Evrant-Knight]

Theon smiled at Seras and then whispered to her as quietly as she had been earlier. "I will be glad when it is just the two us too. Though I can understand your father's concern." Seras felt all warm inside, and kissed Theon on the neck.

"Thank you." Seras said, smiling back at him. "I guess he is just concerned that its my first real time away from the family for any extended period, he probably just wants to make sure that I'm safe; but of course you'll be there along side me won't you?" She asked rhetorically, wearing a serious expression.

"Anyway, I never asked about what your family said when you told them that you were going away. How did they take it?" Her face went from serious, to slightly nervous.

 

[Floris2123]

Theon got a kiss on his neck, probably to hide what happened from Dominic. Theon got a warm feeling inside."Thank you." Seras said, smiling back at him. "I guess he is just concerned that its my first real time away from the family for any extended period, he probably just wants to make sure that I'm safe; but of course you'll be there along side me won't you?" She asked rhetorically, wearing a serious expression, Theon faked having to think about it. "Well if we just happen to head to the same spots, then I guess I have no choice." Theon said teasingly.

"Anyway, I never asked about what your family said when you told them that you were going away. How did they take it?" Her face went from serious, to slightly nervous. Theon face turned from a smile to a pained expression. "Well it wasn't pretty. My father was angry, and so were my cousins and my uncles too. And the only one who understood why I wanted to go, was my grandfather. Oh right I almost forgot." Theon grabbed his bag, he looked through it and took out the old book. "He also gave me this book, to help me on my journey." Theon placed it on his lap showing it to Seras.

 

[Evrant-Knight]

"Well if we just happen to head to the same spots, then I guess I have no choice." Theon said teasingly, this had brightened up Seras's mood. She liked the way that Theon made her laugh, it was special, though it may have been the same as other people, but it felt better.

"I guess you wouldn't, but at least I'd know that you were close by, I feel just that little bit safer when you around."Seras remarked, nuzzling Theon's neck a little, hoping it would either make him laugh, smile, or even blush. When she asked about his family, his expression looked pained, as if it had troubled him to say good bye.

"Well it wasn't pretty. My father was angry, and so were my cousins and my uncles too. And the only one who understood why I wanted to go, was my grandfather. Oh right I almost forgot." Theon said, before stopping briefly to pull something from out of his back, an old book and placed it on his lap showing it to Seras. "He also gave me this book, to help me on my journey." Seras look intrigued by it, her face donning a suitable expression.

"Hmm, that looks interesting Theon." She said as she looked over the cover, trying to read the text, but it was faded in places, making it difficult to read.

"What is it all about then?"

 

[Terratina.]

"Waiting, waiting and more waiting..." She muttered to herself.

Pegs couldn't sit still any longer, so she decided to stretch her wings a bit. Not zipping up the roof stuff either, she just hovered along to the window. But not slow enough to avoid a dark blue haired woman who seemed to be looking in the direction of something. Pegs was just thinking about the future flight ahead after all. She always crashed as soon as her concentration turned to something else. She crashed into her, full force. The bag toppled over, spilling the contents. Pegs just turned back and looked back with a face a mix of pity and horror.

"I'm so sorry!" Pegs said as she went towards the woman to help.

 

[Floris2123]

"I guess you wouldn't, but at least I'd know that you were close by, I feel just that little bit safer when you around." This remark made Theon smile brighter. She then nuzzled Theon's neck a little. Theon blushed, he still wasn't completely used to having a girlfriend. He pulled her a bit tighter to him.

Seras look intrigued by his grandfather?s book. "Hmm, that looks interesting Theon." She said as she looked at the cover, attempting to read it. "What is it all about then?" Theon opened the book, revealing spell descriptions, rituals and recipes for potions. Everything was written in his tribe?s language, still it had also had quite a few drawings. "Well it is my grandfathers grimoire, he is the shaman of our tribe. But sadly the alpha in our tribe only got one son. Me, which means I both have to be the alpha of the pack and the shaman. So he gave me this book to get used to it and to study and learn it. To be honest I haven't even ever casted a spell before, I wonder if I am even able to." Theon said looking at his hand, he seemed a bit worried.

 

[Evrant-Knight]

Theon smiled brighter, then blushed after Seras nuzzled his neck, as he was still getting used to having a girlfriend. Seras blushed as Theon pulled her closer towards him.

"Well it is my grandfathers grimoire, he is the shaman of our tribe. But sadly the alpha in our tribe only got one son. Me, which means I both have to be the alpha of the pack and the shaman. So he gave me this book to get used to it and to study and learn it. To be honest I haven't even ever casted a spell before, I wonder if I am even able to." Theon then looked at his hand, seemingly he was rather worried about the task that lay ahead of him. To try and cheer him up a little, she kissed him on the cheek.

"I take it being just one of them is a big responsibility, can't imagine what its like being both; apart from being very tough." Seras remarked as she looked through the pages, seeing the various drawings and text that she couldn't translate, must be in a langauge that is native to werewolves.

"I'm sure you'll be able to cast one of them at some point, perhaps you just need someone to help teach you them. Maybe I could help in that regard, it could also be a good way to get to know each other a little better. Speaking of, what kind of spells are they?" Seras asked with an inquisitive nature, interested in learning about a new culture or even about new magic.

 

[Not G. Ivingname]

"Snakes on a plane? REALLY?" John supervisor was going to kill him.

He didn't see any big indication that anyone noticed, except Lou had briefly glanced at him, although John didn't see Lou talking to any of his companions about it.

John tested how his conceal magic spell was holding (using his Iphone) and it was holding fine. John would need to refresh it on the plane (or here in the terminal if the plane was delayed for another 2 hours). "Hopefully he just thinks I am some incompetent FBI agent tagging Crim, nothing more."

John checked his pocket to double check he had the US air marshall badge. He then heard some chirps, which he thought was from the Animorphed bird, but was shocked to see it coming from LOU.

So Lou is keeping an eye on everything. Not a good sign. The one weakness you can count on for most Paranormals is blind arrogance, from centuries of immortality making them feel more comfortable, not caring about danger or keeping an eye on the world around them. One who is paranoid, however, is a very dangerous thing.

A loud crash from behind him made John turn towards where the fairy had ran into another person. A person, he just noted, that has blue hair.

"Just better and better..."

 

[Lunar Templar]

Lucia 'acked' as the Fae hit her. then lay on her back for a moment 'this is why i fly places my self' she thought to her self as she sighed. Lucia just got up and dusted her self off, "Do watch where your going" She said as she collected her back pack. Her tone was oddly neutral, but she was still annoyed.

"So ... How long are we supposed to wait, I could flown there my self by now ...." Lucia said to the Fae, annoyed far more that they where still on the ground rather then how long the flight it self was gonna take

 

[Floris2123]

Theon was still worried, but the kiss from Seras made the burden feel lighter. It cheered him up. "I take it being just one of them is a big responsibility, can't imagine what its like being both; apart from being very tough." Theon nodded. "Still it is also a great honor. If either one of them saw me as unworthy, they could have chosen one of my cousins to become the next Alpha and or shaman. But they didn't showing that they both trust me to lead the pack." Theon smiled.

"I'm sure you'll be able to cast one of them at some point, perhaps you just need someone to help teach you them. Maybe I could help in that regard, it could also be a good way to get to know each other a little better. Speaking of, what kind of spells are they?" Seras asked with an inquisitive tone.

"Well the most common spells are healing and restraining ones. Both for the reason that most werewolves are reckless and sometimes lose control. There are also quite a few magic sealing and or shielding spells. We have had some bad experiences with magic users in the past you see. And for the highest level shamans, there are some low level nature spells such as fireballs and low level summons like small birds and such. The shamans are not respected because of their might. But because of their wisdom, advice and guidance they give to the tribe. At least that is how my tribe and the tribes in the area around us view them. And shamans also know a lot about making healing items." Theon kept looking through the book. It seemed quite interesting now that he read it again.

 

[Evrant-Knight]

Theon nodded in agreement. "Still it is also a great honour. If either one of them saw me as unworthy, they could have chosen one of my cousins to become the next Alpha and or shaman. But they didn't showing that they both trust me to lead the pack." He then smiled.

"Well, I'm glad I've got a big strong important figure in a werewolf tribe for a boyfriend. Handsome too." Seras said in a rather un-characteristically girly manner as she hugged him, something she hadn't done in a while; hoping the compliments would make him feel good. She soon went back to her more mature self, but still held on tight to Theon.

"Well the most common spells are healing and restraining ones. Both for the reason that most werewolves are reckless and sometimes lose control.

The shamans are not respected because of their might. But because of their wisdom, advice and guidance they give to the tribe. At least that is how my tribe and the tribes in the area around us view them. And shamans also know a lot about making healing items. Salves and such."

"They do say that knowledge is power. And I guess it helps to be prepared for all occasions. Still, this is all very fascinating Theon; I'm glad that you shared it with me. I know you'll make a great alpha wolf and shaman, I mean you make an excellent boyfriend." Seras said shyly, her cheeks blushing again.

Nicole noticed this rather loving moment, and looked at the couple with a smile.

"Isn't that sweet Dominic, our dear Seras truly does love Theon. Doesn't it remind you of the time we first fell in love?" She asked hopefully without the younger couple hearing her.

"I guess it does my dear, to think a few decades ago, we were exactly like them. All wrapped up in each other, telling stories, staring longley into each others eyes. Its like looking into a mirror." Dominic responded with, holding Nicole's hand as he spoke.

 

[Floris2123]

"Well, I'm glad I've got a big strong important figure in a werewolf tribe for a boyfriend. Handsome too." Seras said in a rather un-characteristically girly manner as she hugged him. Theon smiled brightly, as he hugged her back. He liked it when she acted girly, he was sure she knew this.

"They do say that knowledge is power. And I guess it helps to be prepared for all occasions. Still, this is all very fascinating Theon; I'm glad that you shared it with me. I know you'll make a great alpha wolf and shaman, I mean you make an excellent boyfriend." Seras said shyly, her cheeks blushing again. Theon blushed too "Well I am glad to hear that I make such an excellent boyfriend. But I know for an fact that you make an even better girlfriend." Theon kissed her on her cheek. He didn't want to risk angering Dominic by giving her a normal kiss.

Theon then looked a bit worried. "So have you found out anything new about that strange magic that surrounded you after graduation?" Theon asked carefully, he didn't want to ruin the moment or the mood. But ever since gradation he had been really worried about that. And he couldn't just sit there, while she might be in danger.

 

[Sehnsucht Engel]

Mohini was still waiting, when she saw three individuals in the crowd that she recognized. Three criminals, lead by the vampire lord Crim. She wondered what they were all doing together and immediately thought if she could figure out a way to use it to her advantage or if it were going to affect her own business. She made no attempt to approach them though.

They may not know who she was, and it was probably for the better if they remained in the dark. Mohini resisted calling one of her friends in the same business and telling him about it, even if she would have liked to, it would have to wait until they weren't close to her.

She sighed and looked at the clock again.

 

[Cybele]

The woodpecker was just about to introduce himself when he heard some chirping. At first he thoguht it might be a real bird that had flown in through a open window but it turned out to be a man dressed all in red.

Roland took his chance and flew away when what looked like a pixie flew into the blue haired woman. He landed on the floor a few metres away from the man.

 

[Evrant-Knight]

"Well I am glad to hear that I make such an excellent boyfriend. But I know for an fact that you make an even better girlfriend." Theon blushed, then kissed Seras on the cheek, wanting to play it safe in front of Dominic, though he was slightly distracted by Nicole.

"Aawwwh shucks Theon." Seras said as she playfully slapped Theon on the chest. "You certainly know how to make a girl feel welcome in your company." Her tone then went a little more seductive. "It's almost like you've done this before; then again, perhaps its that strong werewolf instinct kicking in." She was so lost in the moment, that a part of her wasn't paying much attention to what Theon was saying, but he did look worried.

"So have you found out anything new about that strange magic that surrounded you after graduation?" It was then that she came to her senses again, and blushing went more redder, feeling embarrassed about how she acted.

"Sorry, what was that? Oh yes, the strange magic, the shadowy jets. Well a couple of days after graduation, I did some research, and discovered that it was an advanced power called Shadowflight. To put it simply, it allows me to jump, or rather teleport a short distance. Further study showed that with enough concentration, I could eventually be able to fly using it. Whenever I 'jump', I briefly turn into a shadowy cloud, then return to my original form when I arrive. Currently though I'm only able to transfer myself I'm afraid."

 

[Floris2123]

"Aawwwh shucks Theon." Seras said as she playfully slapped him on his chest. "You certainly know how to make a girl feel welcome in your company." Theon smiled because of all the compliments he was getting. Her tone then went a little more seductive. "It's almost like you've done this before; then again, perhaps its that strong werewolf instinct kicking in." Theon knew the werewolf instincts had something to do with it, they made him more confident and less clumsy. He didn't mind being less clumsy and shy.

Seras went a bit red, she seemed ashamed. Theon kissed her on her forehead, she always looked very cute when she smiled. "Sorry, what was that? Oh yes, the strange magic, the shadowy jets. Well a couple of days after graduation, I did some research, and discovered that it was an advanced power called Shadowflight. To put it simply, it allows me to jump, or rather teleport a short distance. Further study showed that with enough concentration, I could eventually be able to fly using it. Whenever I 'jump', I briefly turn into a shadowy cloud, then return to my original form when I arrive. Currently though I'm only able to transfer myself I'm afraid."

Theon looked impressed. "That sounds like a cool and handy power. And I am glad that it is that power, I was worried that it might be some dangerous power or curse or something. And if you do manage to learn to fly, we could fly together. I could grow wings or shape shift into an animal." Theon smiled.

 

[Viking Incognito]

Saturday, with all the grace and subtly of panther, scooped up the bird and put it under his hat in such a way that it went un-noticed by anyone that wasn't looking directly at him. Then he went into the men's bathroom.

After walking into the largest stall and locking the door, he lifted his hat at the bird fluttered off of his head.

"So, wacha doin 'round 'eah? Ah you sum kinda spy?" he questioned.

Spoiler: His Accent

Yes I will be typing Saturday's dialogue in his dialect. When you are reading it, if you have trouble understanding, just say it to yourself in a Haitian/Jamaican accent.
