Something Strange in the Neighbourhood *** [Bello]

@adventuringthatch​

Magic was draining from Swynlake and no one seemed to have any idea why. Not the Magicks. Not the people who had lived her all their lives. Not the fairies in the hollow or the immortals who had seen empires rise and fall in their lifetimes. It was worrisome. Downright troublesome, in fact.

Perhaps, some thought that this wasn’t for Belle to stick her nose in. She was a Mundus, after all, but Belle was long past caring what people thought. Her children were Magicks, her husband, her partner--her friends. Not to mention, she was mayoress and, although that meant just about as much as being Queen of the Underworld really meant...

She still felt like it was her responsibility to do something. So, she’d done what she did best: hit the books. The benefit of being the mayor’s wife meant that she had access to the archives easily and she’d scoured through them to look for any mention of this ever having happened before.

There wasn’t anything. Next step was the PrideU library, which also turned up very little.

Now, she climbed the spiraling tower in PrideU’s east wing, towards the arts and humanities corridor, where all the professors offices were lined. Her shoes echoed dully against the stone. It was mostly quiet, being summertime and all. She was looking for Professor Obaris, who had been one of her Magick History professors. They were a wizened old sorcerer, who was rather grumpy most of the time, but also knew their stuff.

Belle stopped in front of their office to find their door closed. She huffed a little breath. Probably should’ve called first, or emailed, but Belle had a very one track mind, and she’d been in the library anyway.

Turning on her heel, Belle was about to leave, when she noticed that Milo’s office door was cracked open. She moved towards it and knocked with her elbow (she had a stack of books in her arms), opening the door a little wider.

“Milo?” she asked (she had stopped calling him Professor Thatch when she was still in his class), “hullo, I am sorry. I just had a quick question.”

Top Shelf --@ [Isamilo]

@adventuringthatch​

The thing about having a big family, and lots of friends, meant that it was always someone’s birthday.

This time it was both her mama, tia, and Lottie. (Tio Bruno too, but Isabela tried not to think about that.)

All were relatively easy to shop for, Mama and Pepa because she’d known them her whole life and Lottie because she was like Isabela and the rest of the girls. They liked pretty things, soft things...kind of weird for a vampire, but whatever. Made her easy to shop for. That was why Isabela was at Chapter Three today. Looking for a birthday present for any one of the people with a birthday upcoming. 

She had just spotted a promising looking book that was on her list but--it was on a rather high up shelf. Isabela was not a short woman, but she wasn’t in her heels today, opting for a pair of white trainers, considering she was meeting Snow for a class at the gym this evening. Glancing around, she noticed a man standing nearby with a few inches on her.

Well, might as well take this as an opportunity. Isabela had never lifted a finger in her life when there was a man to do it instead around.

“Excuse me, sorry,” Isabela smiled and pointed at the book she needed. “Would you mind grabbing that for me?”

How to Find a Lost City * [Evangilo]

@adventuringthatch​

Evangeline was hanging around the bookshoppe. Even though she didn’t have any money, really, so she tried not to spend what she did have, she loved going to the bookstore. Since learning to read, she wanted to read everything. And the people who worked there were nice enough to let her sit and read!

Which was what she was doing until she heard someone’s wish. It was a very loud wish. She couldn’t focus on what she was doing. Her head had been so quite the last month or so, but now everything was back in full force. She had missed it. Getting up from her seat, Evangeline trotted to the table that the man was sitting at and she stood at the other side, staring at him for a few moments.

“Hi, are you trying to find Atlantis?”
