Noah found himself leaning in with squeamish delight as Belle sucked him into a trance that would last so long as she continued to speak. Noah nodded vigorously when she mentioned it was suspicious... that they brought these mysterious, probably large-enough-to-fit-a-body trunks with them overseas. One Belle finished her tale, Noah slumped back in his seat, a big smile across his face, as he felt invigorated by her story.
Tumblr media
"Wow!" He exclaimed, "How exciting. Maybe they were vampires." He said with a chuckle, not sure if he believed personally in vampires but unwilling to rule them out entirely. "You're-" he jumped to speak, then reeled back his emotions, clearing his throat as his eyes met hers. "Sorry. You're just... really fun to talk to."
"All right..." Settling back, Belle crossed one leg over the other. "So down in New Orleans there's this convent. St. Ursulines. And during the 1800s, girls would come over from Europe. Come to get married. Or look for a job. Teach. And when they'd come over, they'd stay in this convent -- the sisters acting as sort of chaperones. BUT...bout the time these girls started coming over, a sickness of sorts hit New Orleans. People dropping dead. Drained of their blood. And these girls...no one ever really saw them out during the day. Little suspicious, no? Even more suspicious was the fact they carried 'trunks' with them from Europe." And yes, Belle did include the air quotes.
Tumblr media
"Trunks that looked a whole hell of a lot like caskets. Hence their name."

"How much older?" Cass followed up with another question. "It is unfortunate that you aren't as close as you could be but... she sounds like a good older sister." Cass nodded, swift and curt with his actions.
"And your parents?" He left the question open-ended because if he'd learn anything from his dealings with Noah... some people had extreme opinions about their parents. Cass supposed that he himself was no exception to the rule, given that his mother was a saint and his father the Devil incarnate...

"I have a sister and a brother. Nate and I are twins and Terry...she's a good deal older. Was already an adult where our Da and Ma got together. She's our half sister, technically." A product of Sean's first marriage to Maeve O'Rourke.
"It's nice. We're not like super close thanks to the age gap, but she's always been there when we needed her." Like when Nate and his girlfriend brought home a baby...one created by Sinister from their DNA.

"A garden! That sounds lovely. You'd probably enjoy the grounds at the Keep. There's lost of gardens there. Fields full of heather..."

Sarah was simply more cultured than Arden and Arden respected and admired this about her. Even a few key phrases in another language was too much for Arden to comprehend. The only other language Arden spoke was music, arguably. He was impressed by her.
"I know. I love how big the world feels once we leave the bus... it's like the bus is a liminal space, ya know? Where you lose track of time and kind of feel stuck. It's like we know we're traveling but also we can't go anywhere." But the thing Arden loved most was that their adventuring usually took place at night. He preferred the dark nights, being led solely by the stars and the moon.
"Oh, they have great music there! It might even be better than New Orleans... though, it leans towards country." Arden explained simply. "But I heard you can go on a tour in this cave underground... and you go on a boat ride where you can see these rainbow colored fish." He paused for a moment, contemplating, "I'd love to see that. With you."
Sarah smiled, she liked to learn languages here and there but there was a lot she didn't know. She had travelled the world so she had learnt odd little pieces here and there of different languages.
"It's nice to get out of the bus, to walk the city and stretch our legs. Calm down after all that adrenaline from the show." She smiled, this was one of her favourite things to do. During the day there wasn't a lot of time to explore, and they had a day off tomorrow so they could stay out as late as they wanted. They had nowhere else to be.
"Oh yeah? They have good music there?" She smiled, another thing she loved. Seeing the different music scenes in every city. "I'm sure it's on the tour somewhere, hopefully we have a day or two to explore it."

Arden chuckled at the point she made because she was right. In truth, when she was on voice rest she barely spoke, even if it was a whisper. Arden knew that Sarah- as much as she wanted to be social, communicate, and participate in interacting with the people around them- protected her voice more than anything else. He admired that discipline in her.
"The only thing sexier than when you whisper..." he pecked her cheek next, "is when you sing."
Sarah smiled, it was sweet that he wanted to be there with her. And she knew that it meant that she had someone else who knew that her doctors orders were. And Arden would make sure she listened and did everything to get herself better.
"You know I'm hardly allowed to even whisper." Sarah pointed out, she had often used her phone as a way of talking to people when she was on voice rest. Making it talk out to people for her, she would try and talk for an hour a day or bits and pieces if she could. If she wanted her voice to heal. She smiled against his lips softly. "Oh yeah? The whisper is sexier than this husky croak?"

Arden laughed heartily at Sarah's own assessment of her French accent. "Well, I don't speak a lick of French so, to me, it sounds perfect." He gave her his award-winning smile, the one that came out easily whenever she was giving him attention.
"It's almost as glorious as being with you every day." He told her sweetly. Then thought about it, his face revealing that his mind was whirring, "But I do admit: this is a lot better than a tiny tour bus." Their hands melding together, perfectly placed together, Arden felt a little more at ease.
"Sure! They have good food... but the reason you wanna go there..." he paused, just to build anticipation, "is the music."
"What can I say, ordering fries is the most important thing to know." Sarah teased and spoke in French for a moment with what she could remember. "Of course I butchered it and they just said it in English, but at least I tried."
Sarah smiled and felt a shiver run through her as she held his hand, this was something she had pictured in her dreams. Being in the most romantic city with someone she loved. "I love it here with you too."
"Tennessee?" She asked, there wasn't lots of America she had seen and tried to think of what Tennessee would be like. "Oh yeah? Why? Do they have great food? You know my goal in every city we visit it to try as much food as possible."

Biron was beyond spacey, now he was reeling from the fresh bump. His nose on fire, he resisted with great effort the urge to rub or scratch it. While sitting across the bar from the other, he leaned in slightly, not in enough to invade space but enough to express intrigue. "No brother?" He questioned, already having forgotten that he'd mentioned his own brother indirectly to begin with. He mistook this moment for one in which he felt connected to another individual... then, that feeling faded, too.
"I walked." Biron shrugged, then her smirked and put a finger to his temple, "I plan ahead." He quipped, inferring that being fucked up by the end of the night had been intentional all along.
Liam didn't question where Biron was going because he had already pieced it together on his own. The other's pupils were blown wide open and his attention span was minimal, spaced out. He'd need a pick me up if he was going to keep riding whatever wave he'd floated in on and Liam wasn't about to stand in the way. Sane people didn't step between strangers and their drugs - it only caused problems.
When Biron resurfaced Liam had finished half his beer. He didn't intend on another one and aimed to leave when it was gone but something told him to stay put. That nice guy complex, he assumed. "Little of everything," he answered. "And nothing at all." Really their conversation wasn't that deep and either one of them could've walked away from it with ease. Yet there they both were. "You're right. I don't got many friends, they aren't here. No girl, no guy, no brother." He shrugged, it didn't make a difference. "Don't tell me you drove yourself here."

Cass + Sandra
continued from here. marvelslegacies​:
Cass' eyes shifted away as he fell into thought, the attention now painfully back on him. "You have a sister. What's that like?" Cass was an only child and he liked to think he preferred it that way. "Oh..." he added pensively, "I'd probably be back home in the California mountains. Hiking and climbing. Maybe I'd have a garden." He almost looked distracted now, but he was certainly still paying attention. He simply was feigning disinterest.

Arden felt a sense of satisfaction as she took his hand and pushed in close to him. For almost everybody on the planet, physical contact was off limits. But not with Sarah, not after he learned to trust her so deeply. After so long with no betrayals, nothing besmirched. The union that was Arden and Sarah in his mind was pristine and unbroken. A beautiful thing.
"I'll go." He assured her in a soft tone. He didn't have anything better to do than play guitar and he was fortunate in this life to have that opportunity damn near all the time. "I want to be there for you." He justified himself with humility.
Arden gave into a lop sided grin, "I love when you're on voice rest because you have to whisper!" He hissed his last few words in a stage whisper at her. His head swiveled quickly... there was no one else on the tour bus that could see them, but they might be overheard. Arden leaned in to press a soft, subtle kiss against Sarah's lips.
Whispering gently now, he confessed, "And I love how you whisper."
Sarah smiled, he always managed to make her feel better when she was feeling like this. He had been by her side for hospital visits and doctors visits, whether it was her heart or her voice he made sure she got the rest she needed. She wanted to make another comment about it being annoying when he was right and logical, but she didn't have the energy, taking his hand and leaning in to him so she could get comfortable. Life on a tour bus wasn't easy, and being sick on a tour bus made it even less so. Maybe at least if she cancelled some shows they could get an Air BnB for a few nights. "I don't mind, if you've got things to do I'll be fine. They'll probably just give me antibiotics or something, or put me on voice rest and lots of fluids. I know you love it when I'm on voice rest."

Arden cracked another smile as they came so easily when he was around Sarah, "And how do you orders fries? I'm gonna need to know this stuff if I want to have fries." He grinned again, holding back laughter at his own joke.
Arden followed the invisible line from Sarah's pointer finger out into the city scape and his vision rested on the tower, glittering against the backdrop of the night and peaking up above the rest of the skyline.
Awestruck, Arden simply stared off into the distance silently. Pulling in slow, even breaths. He was tranquil. With a sigh, he finally broke his silent vow: "I love it here. With you." He turned his gaze on her.
Arden thought more about it, he knew she knew New York City well and that she'd been to Paris when she was young. He wondered if he'd been to an exotic place which she hadn't been... finally, it came to him. "Oh!" He grinned impishly, like he knew a delicious secret, "I bet you'd love Tennessee."
Sarah chuckled when he said the majority of them sucked, it was all new to her. She hadn't had the opportunity to visit the states much other than the usual hotspots, New York and Los Angeles. It was exciting for her to see more of it, as a kid she always dreamt of doing a road trip across America.
"Once or twice." She said, though she didn't know the city that well, she was sure it couldn't be hard to find the Eiffel Tower. "I learnt French as a kid, don't think much of it stuck other than learning how to order fries." She confessed and pulled him towards the river. "In any city, it's always a good shout to follow the river. You'll be able to find anything." She said and pointed in the distance as they saw the tower glistening in the distance. "See?"

"Oh, they exist." Arden chided wryly, "And most of them suck." He deadpanned. Though, this was only partially true. Some places in the US were wonderful and beautiful, rich with culture. Some others were... less desirable.
"You been here before, haven't you?" He commented next, "How do we get to the Eiffel Tower from here?" He wanted to know.
Sarah was incredibly lucky that she had been to these places before, that she got to go camping with her family in France as a kid during the summer vacations. Now she got to explore the world with her boyfriend and experience it all together. She loved Paris at night, it felt romantic and calm, as though she were in a movie. Thankfully the city was quiet at this time of night so they weren't going to be stopped for photos.
"Yeah?" She asked with a smile as she squeezed his hand. "Well I hope I make a good travel partner. There's a lot of places I haven't been to. I look at the tourlist for America, didn't know half of those places existed."

"No," Noah said definitively. A long pause followed. "I don't think you know it. I don't think you truly understand how bad it feels." He said it like it didn't matter when, in fact, in this exact moment, nothing on the planets mattered to Noah besides this slight. "You were supposed to be someone I could trust-" his jaw clenched as the words escaped him.
"I know I hurt you... and I'm sorry."
