Mystic Syn

"I don't necessarily trust people at first," he said simply. "I stayed because my life was pretty boring as is. All of the sketches in my apartment and in my room over there prove it."

She pursed her lips, her eyebrows knitting in concentration. "I see." Q considered her options, before sighing and walking through not that far behind. "Someone has to watch her back," she mumbled to herself.

Adrastos strode in, keeping the door open for Glissando. "What do you want me to explain?"

Q gave the portal a skeptical look, but didn't look like it was her first time seeing one. "Where does it lead?" she asked.

Then I suggest steering clear from all of the book discussions, if you don't want any spoilers, lol. I wish you luck with reading them! When you get the chance, of course, lol.

Uncertainty flickered in his eyes, but he nodded. "Inside is probably better," he said, already making his way towards the base.

Maybe I'll give it, maybe I won't. Depends on how far you take this, and it's kinda already going a bit far.

Keres pushed her ginger hair from her eyes, taking a deep breath. She looked out the window of the carriage, admiring the sights for perhaps the millionth time. She should be used to this, she knew it, but there was always a bit of awe that came in whenever she made her way to assemblies or any sorts of meetings in the city. Being the king's assistant did have its perks, such as the carriage, but sometimes it didn't allow her to see the sights. That's why she always went out at night to not only admire the nightly sights, but to complete some personal errands that she couldn't do in the day. She flattened her dark maroon dress, then reaching out for her notes. Keres always kept them in an orderly fashion, keeping them according to the plans of the king and whatever plans she had going on for the rest of the day. If they weren't kept in order, Keres wouldn't be able to live with herself. It wasn't that she was super OCD about it, it was just because if everything didn't go according to plan the king's and her own schedule, their time would be a bit wasted. Although, there was that small bit in her that thrived in the chaos of not knowing what's next and every day she worked with the king, she found herself wanting to live life like that; however she knew that schedules were important and that's why she kept to her plans. The carriage came to a stop, which caused Keres to look up. She hadn't realized how much time and scenery has passed when she was lost in her thoughts. Pulling her hair in a tail, she let out a breath. She snatched her notes and writing utensils, sticking one behind her ear in the mess of her ginger hair. Despite of being to all sorts of these kinds of meetings before, Keres found herself trembling ever so slightly. The trembling subsided when she reminded herself why she was here and what she was going to do. After all, it was going to take work to be able to keep notes on what happened at the assembly. The door opened to the outdoors, sunlight spilling into the carriage. Keres squinted a bit, then rose from her seat to meet the outdoors while holding her notes in one arm. The coachman waited patiently, then offered a gloved hand towards her. She gave him a smile, taking his offered hand and climbed out of the carriage. Her heels hit the cobblestone underneath, making it seem almost as if the only sound in the whole city but she knew that there were more sounds to be discovered. Before letting go of the coachman's hand, Keres leaned in close to his ear. "If I'm not out at the allotted time, Leander, don't come for me," she whispered before letting go and giving him a slight nod. Leander gave a nod back, bowing to her. "Of course, my lady." She gave him a reassuring smile, seeing the carriage off before turning about, looking at the large building. Just another job, she told herself, walking to the building with notes in hand. Apparently, there were more people on their way towards the building. Keres tilted her head, considering her options before she made her way towards the group. Just another job.

"Dunno," he said with a shrug. Adrastos cocked an eyebrow at her. "Do you really think you can take another hit from the creature?"

Adrastos tilted his head at the creature. "Either you hit it," he said to Glissando, "or your friend did something that I can't see."

I mean, professionals get paid, and if he is I wanna know who he's working for cos I need money might want to look into it. •3•

Hello there, and welcome to the chaos Shard! Your friend knows what's going on, lol. Have you read any of Sanderson's books? If you have, which one is your favorite?

Whatever you need to tell yourself, lol. I'll probably join back in a bit, lol.

So, in a nutshell, you wanna mess with time just to save one squid because you couldn't save him the first time, and you wanna connect to another rp(?) of sorts with other characters to try and save this squid dude, even though there is a quest that people need to go on for p l o t and whatnot; which, in turn, has you create a butterfly ripple in time where when you save the squid, you might change what your future will be; and by doing so, will change the outcome of what you want to do because you want to save a squid, although some writers logic clearly says that once someone is dead, that's it unless you want to be a weirdo and cliché and want to go back in time to save them, even though that has proven to be weird and confusing and ends up losing what fandom you had; and because you want to do this, you want Q to come along.

WHO SUMMONED ME–– Oh hey, what's up?

Adrastos gestured towards the creature. "Have at it, then."

He gave her a skeptical look. "But can you hit it from here?"

Adrastos nodded, then followed her gaze. "I'm not sure," he said, tilting his head. "There's only so much that air can do for me."

He didn't say anything, until his feet touched the ground. Adrastos carefully set her down, taking a step back. "It's not your fault," he finally said. "You didn't know."

Adrastos spared a glance at her again, which made the both of them wobble in the air for a few seconds. He gritted his teeth, before they stabilized and continued to float down, this time a bit faster than before. "I said that I'm not going to ask," he said through gritted teeth, sweat starting to roll down his face as he watched the approaching ground. "Please try not to break my concentration. It's a bit harder trying to bring a whole person down along; I'm more used to doing it by myself."

Most of the rps I'm in, I really don't know what to do, because I don't know what the other person's reaction is going to be. But anyways... Adrastos jolted awake, raising his head from the sketches and drawings that he had been working on last night before he had accidentally fallen asleep. He rubbed his eyes, trying to get the sleep out of them. He didn't know how long he had been sleeping, but he was guessing for a bit considering how bright it was outside and how no one had woken him up yet. They probably knew that he had wanted his sleep, or they just didn't care; both of those options seemed very plausible at this point. He ran his hand through his hair, ready to go back to drawing and sketching, but the sound of commotion made him raise his head towards the sounds. From what he could tell, they were coming from outside, but who was up and actually doing something at this time in the day? He didn't think much of it, till he heard screams and shrieks that sounded inhuman. He weighed his options, before he realized that he was already getting up to run out the door. He didn't look at anyone as he ran outside. Nothing was there, but the shrieks happened again, which caused him to flinch. Raising his head, he finally saw what was going on. Adrastos watched Ella push Glissando away, and that's when he realized that... he would have to use his powers if he wanted to save her. He could be a jerk and not save her, but he knew that he couldn't do that. He didn't want to let them know that he had powers, but someone's life was on the line and he couldn't let someone die because he wanted to his secret. Already crouching, he knew the decision that he was going to make. With what power he had, Adrastos used his air manipulation to push himself into the air, just high enough to catch Glissando. He zipped through the air till he slowed where Glissando was, reaching out to catch her gently. With a soft grunt of effort, he made sure that they started to float down slowly. He glanced at her, then the creature. "I'm not even going to ask," he said, looking back down on concentrating on what he was doing.

I mean, if it doesn't work, that would be a good time for me to jump in again even tho I should've done that a bit ago.

I honestly should stop stalking this thread and rp with y'all, lol. But I think that I'll stalk y'all a bit so I can have a plan of some sort.
