        ❝   ––––  𝒅𝒊𝒅𝒏'𝒕 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒂𝒊𝒔𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒈𝒐𝒕 𝒂 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒈𝒐𝒇𝒆𝒓   (  ...  )    ❞     calm and cruel both at once,    the form rests comfortable against the store’s front counter as she watches the other move around the space,    a smile curling against a blood - red mouth,    eyes full of curiosity that refuses to be satiated.      in her left hand is a bag that drips black ooze onto the pristine floor;     something in it rustles and wiggles,    as if a creature were attempting to escape.    the grip is tightened against the off - white cloth sack.       violence a priori,    violence underfoot:   the black - stone gaze returns to @witchwretch after a moment,    the beast inside the sack calmed for the moment.      she tempts pushing herself off the counter,    bothering the other with sweet,    slow savagery...      she opts for something kinder on the mouth,    the tongue clicking in the pouch of her cheek.      ❝    what are you looking for ?     y’seem to be making more of a disturbance than anything.     aisling’s not gonna like her goods being turned around like that,    but most of us know that...   ❞
        𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒎𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒍𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒚,     soaked in ancient languidly  ––  there is no rushing here,    no briskness in the way she walks.    a jar of star anise is removed from the shelf from its spot,    a pot filled with reactive herbs rattling at the nearness of her hands.      out of the corner of her eye,    a closer look is taken to the other and realization admixed dully with revelation brighten her gaze.      ❝    a few years back,    i threatened to devour you,    didn’t i ?   ❞
