Light of May ::: an original roleplay

Who: Amelia and Isaiah
Where: Owls Nest
When: Lunch Time!

Starting Monday Amelia was going in for one more round of intense chemo. If there were no immediate responses the Doctor had explained that they would be forced to take "further measures". She tried not to think about how further measures were not only frightening but implied that she was near the end of her rope. Despite that the cards seemed to be increasingly stacked against her Amelia couldn't help but try to see the glass as half full. There were good things happening in her life and she refused to let an illness hold her down.

Most of the time.

Who: Raina and Isaiah
Where: Their respective homes/Over the phonelines
When: Mid-Afternoon
What: Reassurances and Stability

The call to the number her father had given her, that he'd gotten from the news, had summoned a small crew to get rid of the demon's remains from behind her home before she returned. She hadn't wanted to see the decapitated body, or the black blood that stained the green grass in that previously pleasant field. Hadn't wanted the undeniable evidence that her nightmare was based in concrete reality. She wasn't a coward, she just knew herself well enough not to invite more of that unsettled, uncomfortable feeling into the pit of her stomach.

Being told she could go home would have been more of a joy if not for her sister's departure, the moment it was considered remotely safe. Rowena had not even taken the time to do more than take the absolute essentials form the rooms that had been her and Caius'. The two sisters had hardly spoken while Raina had helped her nephew pack a bag of his things, Rowena doing the same for herself. Aside from extracting a promise from her younger sister to send on the remainer of her things, on to the house she had shared with her ex-husband, Greg, they had not talked at all.

The shreds of speech that did pass between them were stilted and lacking their usual warmth. Caius, Raina saw, looked between his mother and his aunt, confused and troubled. It was partially why, just before her sister and nephew had left, Raina knelt before the little boy. She hugged him close, and while she didn't deny that she she'd had an argument with his mother, she promised to always be on the other end of the phone. Raina had been firm in her assurances that she loved him, and that her upset was not with him, was never with him.

Who: Isaiah Williamson and Jace Sloper
Where: SOHS to start
When: Late morning
What: Making sure his best friend is okay and not, you know, being a dumbass



( Either that, or Jace was being an asshole and yanking Isaiah's chain, in which case then the elemental was getting punched in the face. )

Who: Isaiah Williamson and Raina Scott (plus Isaiah's mom Adrie, NPC'd)
Where: Raina's house // Isaiah's parents' house

( That hope was shattered like the broken glass in Raina's picture frames, scattered across the hallway floor. )

Where: Raina's house
When: Early morning



( Kind of like knocking on a door, falcon-style. )

Who: Roxy, Diaz family (NPCs), and OPEN to those invited to the party
Where: Party at the Diaz household
When: 9:30pm and on

The full moon wasn't a curse in the eyes of the Diaz household. Instead, it was a night to celebrate the fact that they were different. There was no reason to take shame in this. Then again, they were all penguins, so why not party? Said party had been tradition in the family since who knew when. Usually it involved hanging out by the local beach and indulging in some shrimp platters prepared ahead of time, but seeing that there was no decent beach in the area, the massive pool in the backyard was going to have to do.

Besides, penguins knew how to threw a bad ass party. Traditional Chilean music was blaring from the speakers outside while penguins filled the pool, deck, and even throughout the inside of the house. There were platters of all sorts of raw seafood at every corner along with appetizers for the human types. Not all of the family turned into penguins, namely Roxy's mother and a few of her siblings. Not to mention she invited all of her friends, so they had to eat something while they were there. Regardless if someone was a human or penguin, it didn't matter. It looked like everyone was having fun.

Roxy had just jumped out of the pool, shaking her body in the process. Doing a few laps in the pool with her cousins was making her hungry. Waddling on the deck, she honked on over to her aunt, who was surrounded by at least five fuzzy penguin chicks, all of them bopping their heads to the music. After waving her wing in their direction, she waddled inside the house, which was a bit calmer, in hopes to find something to munch on and maybe even catch up with her friends. Granted that was a bit hard as a penguin, but it was better than nothing.

Who: Isaiah Williamson and Marlowe Evans-Rembrandt
Where: The Owl's Nest
When: Around 3ish in the afternoon



( It was going to be a good night in the restaurant, Isaiah could already tell. )

Who: Bradley and Isaiah
Where: The Owl's Nest kitchen
When: Early afternoon
What: There's a reason why Isaiah calls Bradley "Uncle Brad."


( Now, he was back doing what he did best: cooking good food in the place he loved, his family's restaurant. )

Who: Isaiah, Raina and Rowena
When: Dinnertime
Where: Raina's house

Raina had thought long and hard on the subject, of whether or not to tell her sister and her boyfriend about the other before dinner. About the other's Were nature, to be precise. Isaiah seemed to keep his nature carefully hidden, or at least close to his chest, if only being outed by her Familiar, before. And Rowena? Well, Raina knew that besides Noah, her, and now their parents, Rowena was not about to shout that fact out from the rooftops.

There was, of course, a good deal of difference between Weres who were Bitten, and those who were born that way. Rowena and Isaiah firmly stood on opposite sides of that equation.

Going to her best friend on the subject hadn't been entirely feasible, given that Sloane knew about neither of the Weres in question. Everything else about them? Yes. Well, most everything else. The fact that her sister had been bitten a month before, and her boyfriend had been born a Were, that Raina had kept to herself. So, instead, Raina had gotten her advice from her Familiar, in between Oma's wrestling bouts with the little shepherd puppy, the little bear finally solving her Elemental's problem by telling her to simply let them discover, or not discover, that truth for themselves.

"Ro...did I forget the raspberries for the dessert?" Raina couldn't remember where exactly she'd put the basket, but she had thought she'd gotten them from the farmer's market before.

Who: Graham, Isaiah, and Jace
Where: Anywhere But Here
When: Evening

( Though two flaming assholes and facepalming bird? That shit never gets old. )

Where: The family home of Uncle and Auntie Williamson
When: Around mid-day
Who: Jace, Isaiah, Lizzy, and the rest of the Williamson crew...minus Josiah

It never failed to impress Jace when Isaiah turned into his bird form and took to the sky, granted he'd seen it about a million times over the years but it was still pretty breathtaking. True to his word the first thing he did when he woke up was to check for wind conditions, and seeing that it was pretty stable, ran into Isaiah's room and woke him up like a little kid on Christmas morning.

And that was how he spent his first morning back in Scarlet Oaks.

That, however, was a few hours ago. At this current moment in time, Jace was attempting to not only hold onto Isaiah's waist as they sped to the Williamson's place on said were-falcon's motorcycle...all the while keeping Quinn tucked in his leather jacket. As they pulled into the driveway and Jace slid off his helmet, he made a mental note that he would definitely be riding that thing at some point. As Jace practically bounded up the stairs on the front porch he knocked on the door before swinging it open and calling inside, "Honey, I'm hoooooooome!"
