       her hand retracted immediately. from clarke's shoulder. if words could leave visible marks then burns would have appeared on the palm of her hand, quickly h i d d e n as previously opened palm formed a fist at her side. her expression showed nothing; it was only beneath that evidence of a WOUND festered. causing clarke harm or distress was the last thing she desired, but it seemed she was t r a p p e d in such a role and would remain as such for as long as duty bound her to her people and clarke to hers. lexa swallowed.          ❝  I’M SORRY. ❞

two characters fighting? nice. two characters flirting? also nice. but two characters flirting while fighting (other people or each other)? *chef’s kiss* fucking transcendent

        ❝  what do you want me to say? ❞          it had been years since she had laid eyes on the other girl. they had transformed from children who had been raised and trained together to STRANGERS. neither were children anymore - had they ever been ? but now there was no doubting it. lexa drew in a deep breath. a variety of emotion mingled within her veins, all carefully hidden beneath the commander’s mask, and all of equal strength. only time would tell what one emerged s t r o n g e r.          ❝  i never expected that you would want to come here. ❞

        her people have caused enough damage - both to lexa herself and the coalition as a whole. her trust of azgeda had always been thin, a single wrong move would have SHATTERED it, and nia had made plenty; they should all be g r a t e f u l she did not seek blood from them all. it was for the sake of her coalition that they remained albeit under new leadership. it was also for the sake of peace that she did not turn echo away immediately, but there was no warmth to her voice when she asked,          ❝  how can you be of any help? ❞

PERCY   |   oceanblood

“SPOKEN LIKE A TRUE CHILD OF ARES, really,” Percy huffs with a roll of his eyes as he keeps trudging on with Lexa in tow, “I am moving, but I unfortunately can’t run as fast as you run your mouth.” He just grumbles and focuses all of his energy on getting Lexa back to camp in one piece. I’m pretty sure Mr. D gets Great Joy in pairing me up with children of Ares, knowing full well it’s going to be more torture for Me than anything else. 

        if looks could kill his breath would cease right then and there for lexa’s eyes wield daggers in that moment.          ❝  i think you’re describing YOURSELF. most people at camp would agree. ❞          she doesn’t understand w h y she cannot simply go on missions alone or, if she must have company, at least assign her one of her half-siblings. they’re easier to deal with. anyone would be more tolerable than him.

        ❛ the  truth ?  well  …  which  one ? ❜   his  chin  tilted  upwards,  head  leaning  back  to  make  himself  taller;  feigned  confidence  with  hands  folded  behind  his  back.  victor  liked  to  make  a  game  of  everything.  for  there  were  many  truths  to  be  told  each  day;  his  socks  didn’t  match,  he’d  forgotten  to  eat  breakfast,  the  money  in  his  pocket  had  belonged  to  an  obnoxious  man  on  the  bus,  too  busy  on  his  phone  to  notice  its  absence——–THAT,  presumably,  was  the  truth  she  wanted.  but  where  was  the  fun  in  saying  so ?    ❛i’ve  got  lots  of  truths.  ——-guess  one  correctly,  and  i’ll  give  you  a  dollar ? ❜ 

        a scoff, laced with irritation. she’d never been one for games, far too direct for the finer intricacies involved in them, and in possession of far too little PATIENCE - at least when she’s being toyed with. fingers flexed at her side. frusteration wouldn’t get her anywhere but it was tempting.          ❝  you k n o w which one. ❞          her voice remained level, but if there was any question about whether she’d play along or not it disappeared now in the sharpness of her gaze and thin line of her lips. most had missed his careful actions; lexa simply happened to be more OBSERVANT than most. his skill would almost be admirable if it wasn’t a crime.          ❝  you shouldn’t take what isn’t yours. ❞

        ❝  thanks. ❞        she holds the drink out immediately while she takes her own. a single sip of the drink tells her it’s exactly what she both ordered and needs. piping hot, black coffee. she’s never been one to over complicate things. if she had wanted a sweet drink then she’d have ORDERED one, but she hadn’t so she sees no reason to impair the coffee’s natural bitterness.          ❝  i think the barista was new. or overwhelmed by the morning rush. ❞

clarke   |   aigonakru·

eyes widen slightly when she met the sight of the brunette, cupping her cheeks. breathing out shakily in relief that she was conscious once again. breathing—not so steadily–but BREATHING. her heart was racing, along with lexa’s, she was sure. hands over the bleeding wounds on her side. laughing, though she wasn’t amused by the commander’s word toward her. “ don’t worry about YOU, seriously? you’re bleeding out. i’m going to WORRY…but i’m going to make sure you live to see another sun rise. got it? “ she said firmly. 

        the gentleness of clarke’s hands on her cheeks took her by surprise, breathing caught briefly in her throat; lexa told herself it was simply the p a i n. the sensation faded too soon as clarke’s hands moved back to her WOUND. she couldn’t get a good look at it but based on the pain and the fuzziness in her head from the blood loss it must be pretty bad. a part of her felt tempted to try and sit up, laying down made her more vulnerable, but clarke’s words halted that idea. she nodded but still said,          ❝  death is apart of every commander’s life. if this is my time then it is my time. ❞

draco   |   hadncchoice

           IT’S AMAZING THE LENGTH THESE KIDS GO TO for a night out on the town.   that whole school is buzzing as they make their way out, and he’s thankful for the quiet that will come until late into the night.    he doesn’t need privileges to go to HOGSMEADE, with his name he can pretty much come and go as he pleases.    tucked in an oversized chair, draco’s feet rest against the table, nose buried in a book.   he told blaise and pansy he was studying, but the book is some old novel ; with yellowed pages and a worn out spine.    he’s expected to be left in the silence, but hears a familiar voice, silvery leaving the pages to glance at lexa.   

                ‘’       –   no.   last time it wasn’t worth it, not with all the first years attending to.  ‘’      it’s rude to ignore someone and not give them his undivided attention, especially a fellow slytherin.   so the page is marked mentally in his head, placed beside him.     ‘’    it’s a blessing, a curse, perhaps.   how come you didn’t go?      ‘’  

        sometimes, when she unconsciously let her defenses lower, she missed going to hogsmeade. it has nothing to do with getting to leave the castle or even the village’s quaint charm; no, it’s COSTIA she misses, always costia. they’d had a tradition of sorts - riding the carriage there together, visiting the shops, before ending the day at the three broomsticks. they’d always come back exhausted but smiling. without costia... well, there isn’t any point in going. no, better to spend the time focusing on her studies.

          ❝  wasn’t in the mood. ❞          and that is the most information she’ll give, even if he is a fellow slytherin. there’s no denying that lexa is loyal to her house above all else but that doesn’t mean she needs to divulge overly p e r s o n a l details. she doesn’t talk about costia with anyone - slytherin or not.          ❝  i heard lots of people complaining about that last time. you’d think the first years had NEVER visited wizarding shops before. ❞
