“i wasn’t staring at you,” kevin defends himself. at least not intentionally. if his gaze happened to wander in neil’s direction while he was semi spacing out, that’s not his fault. “i was thinking.”
it’s just been few hours since they clashed in the court, and still, the adrenaline hasn’t washed off completely even when neil took a shower afterwards.
‟ And I suppose STARING might be a requirement ? ❜ he goads involuntarily, sarcasm already underway right after catching himself. kevin is not the enemy here; no one else is, after ... well, the finals. he’s becoming more aware on how he’s picking up andrew’s unpleasant moods quicker; except his own temper flares brighter, adding fuel to the fire.
so neil takes a deep breath and exhales slowly as he cools his head down ——
‟ FORGET IT . ❜ and the brunet shrugs. ‟ You’ve been thinking too long. Don’t hurt yourself. ❜

magic is not uncommon to his kind , as it is as consistent as the existence of nature and the world ... though the changing times has inevitably depleted its range and effectiveness. not until knowes are rediscovered , and so is the shadow world —— which neil is fond of.
‟ IT HAS TO . ❜ perhaps if neil say the words out loud , his wish can be granted; words have power , after all. on the run , he agrees on taking companion along ... at least until neil regains his strength to merge back into the shadows and redirect her path to where she needs to. a give and take, protection temporarily granted by the unknown entity to neil and neil to uphold his promise to bestow direction on whatever she seems to seek. ‟ You’re not so ordinary yourself , so I trust we’re in good hands. Just until ... I can help you out as well. ❜

@jozthen said: it’s nothing. it’s just a bruise.
Inquisitive gaze lingers, scolding and relentless. One that wordlessly whispers ‘should’ve known better’ every chance it gets. Words are not needed, her expression says it all and, really, is there something left to say but at all? Sometimes a bruise is just a bruise, god knows she had her fair share of those marking every inch of pale skin; like a map of violence, only there was never any treasure to find.
“Listen, kid, you might have charm, but your right hook is abysmal.” She holds nothing back, rarely does. Not that bite that drips form her words, not that grin that tugs at the corners of her mouth. Learning how to defend oneself is vital, at least in her books, and that will be the topic she settles on. Not the bruise, pale and blue, not the implication that it carries.
Water drips down her wrist from the bag of ice she’s holding. They ran out of ice-packs long long time ago, so a couple of cubes wrapped in a towel will have to do. It’s a gesture that counts, is it not? “Maybe we should work on that next time.”
miscellaneous angst starters. || not accepting
he is not built to stand his ground —— his mother made sure of that. better to outrun the nightmares than getting caught back up in them. so natha - - neil learns to bite back complaints , or ‘ whining ’ as mary would’ve placed it if she were still alive , from the other person who at least gave a shit in giving him a fighting chance. literally.
‟ What about the left ? Fared better ? ❜ the brunet reaches for the damp compress; iciness begin to numb fingers that clenched tighter and hurt less than the pain they have to endure against the californian sand. carefully situating the wet bag against his left cheek , liking how the cold dissipates heat and relieves him ... before placing it on his right side to hold it there. the boy shifts slowly and checks which is movable and which is tolerable , assessing damage.
looking up from the floor he sits on , observing the other of unknown origins. how she didn’t mince anything with neil , like his mother did , and how he tries to hold back the fear slowly creeping in his chest. as much as he has respect in females , he thinks how terrifying it would be if they met before within his father’s business circles and that neil couldn’t remember; how this woman could’ve had a hand in teaching him , just like his father instructed lola to teach him. he frowns and ignores the awful turning of his guts inside.
‟ I don’t know why ... you’re doing this. ❜ neil begins with a cautious tone , choosing wise words that won’t offend the lady. why now , of all times , did a beacon appear when he’s almost tipped to the edge , ready to give up ? ‟ What do you get out of it ? ❜
