The moon was full, and silouted in the light and shadows was Fiona. Laying on her back on the pavement with her dress hiked up just enough to allow her feet to bend over the side of the fountain and kick the water gently as she hummed a soft melody to herself.

Aaron wasn't doing it on purpose, and his power usually didn't react to his emotions, but with so much on his mind it just sort of creeped out of him in a haze. He didn't even notice. He was usually asleep by now but had spent so much time tossing and turning, thinking and mulling, trying anything he could think of. Warm milk, a hot shower, a quick bodyweight workout, calming music. Nothing did anything. Eventually, well, maybe he just needed a walk. Cold, fresh air. Maybe a heavy snack in the cafeteria if there was still anyone there right now. He didn't see anyone at the fountain. « Last Edit: Oct 28, 2015 18:58:45 GMT -6 by Aaron Silverman » Back to Top   Some things are worth fighting for, some feelings never die...

Now and then her humming was interrupted by a giggle. Back to Top   Fiona Aaron Silverman Legend Defense ... [send pm] Joined: November 2014 Posts: 3,701 Star Bright. Moonlight.

Aaron hadn't heard the noise from the fountain at first, and the surprise of spotting another person there, splashing her feet in it like it was a bathtub in her pod, took his mind off things long enough for the darkness around him to suddenly vanish. Except for the regular old dark of it being 3 AM, of course. He took a few steps closer, curious, looking at the agent(?) he'd never seen before, and let the moonlight shine on them for a few moments before he thought to say anything. "You couldn't sleep either?" Back to Top   Some things are worth fighting for, some feelings never die... Fiona Harper Mentor Intelligence [send pm] Joined: October 2015 Posts: 1,096 Star Bright.

Her eyes almost glazed over like she was spacing out and seeing something far away. "There is too much going on." Back to Top   Fiona Aaron Silverman Legend Defense ...

Something about the look in her eyes gave him the feeling they weren't talking about the same things, though. Was she on something? Though it wasn't like a glazed-over, spaced-out look couldn't be from a power or something. "Mind if I sit?" Maybe it'd help. Feeling the cool stone underneath him, the slight breeze through the courtyard, hearing the water rushing to and fro. If she didn't refuse him, he'd take a seat on the fountain's edge near her. Not too close though, that'd be weird. Back to Top   Some things are worth fighting for, some feelings never die...

She seemed confused as to why she isn't grabbing them. "Hmph." She tries for the moon. "It doesn't matter though, does it? It's the name worth knowing."

The way some people looked at him in the halls, the way people emphasised his last name, not his first, how teachers in his early days would always hear who he was and only see his parents. What they had done, their strength, not what he could do, how strong he could become. It had settled down some now, but every once in a while... But how would this girl know all that from just looking at him? "Do you know who I am, then?" Curiosity, not invocation. What was her deal? The "shadows cling to you" thing could've been just about his power, but everything else? Hm. Back to Top   Some things are worth fighting for, some feelings never die...
