She thought for a while. “Um… It’s a big old building and courtyard by the depot. It’s got, er, lots of people. We’re the first stop along the grain route.”

When the young man looked at her, Lucy suddenly didn’t feel like talking about it. She took the jacket and lay over it on the stone, hiding her face.

@whalekeeper

Np!

That’s cool. Do you think it does that because your circulation changes?

No idea. My big brother has a birthmark that looks almost exactly the same on his neck, and it does similar weird things where it gets darker and lighter. Not sure if its for the same reason mine does, I’ll have to ask.

“Here. I lied.”

Pfff

@rae

Sorry, I had to do a bit of cleaning in the kitchen

Fun fact, I have a birthmark on my right hand that usually gets dark when my hands are cold or I’m irritated.

She nodded and took the last fruit. The smells were unfamiliar, and they set her on edge, but l…[Read more]

Gabriel Mai — The Protector

He looked back at her. “Really? I wish my people knew that.” He sighed, eyes dropping to the ground. After a few minutes, he looked up again. “Those weird fruits are surprisingly not bad. And the flowers, can you smell them? They’re so gentle.”

“That’s stupid. Birthmarks come from blood vessels or skin pigment. Even I know that, and I’m ten.”

@whalekeeper

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

“Uh…” Gabriel broke eye contact. “My country believes they’re demon marks.”

@rae

Lucille

Lucy frowned at being called illogical but didn’t say anything. “Why would I throw stones at you because of birthmarks?”

@whalekeeper

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel chuckled. “That’s good to know. I still think you’re illogical and quite a little flame when you want to be, but you don’t throw stones at me because of my birthmarks, and you’re more interesting than most people.” His two longer pieces of hair in the front blew into his face, and the flowers L…[Read more]

Got it

Lucille

Lucy traced over them. They felt rougher than they looked, somewhat like her father’s. She bent his hands into fists and out again, folded them together, and briefly pretended his fingers were keys and she was playing the piano.

It was the kind of game that made no sense but relaxed her. She did it for a little while until…[Read more]

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel held out his hands, palms up. He had the hands of a worker, a little dirty, a few scars on the palms.

Sorry for the short rp. By the way, in his world, Gabriel is a peasant who works on a farm for someone and runs errands occasionally.

“My parents.” Lucy glanced at different sights in front of them, not letting her eyes stay in one place for long. For a long time, her eyelids flickered and she said nothing. She didn’t look at the Protector but she reached out again. “May I look at your hands?”

@rae

We’re magically cooperating here, passing the baton back and forth

Except when I’m stuck for no reason and leave you hanging for twelve hours. XD

That’s rping for ya

@Whalekeeper

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

He looked at her, raising a red eyebrow. “Old? I guess so, comparatively. When my parents—” He stopped, then shook his head. “Doesn’t matter. What would make you less afraid?”

@whalekeeper

I sign on, and you posted literally seconds before, lol

@rae

He rarely spills out his thoughts though, so this is nice.

Yeah I think it’s nice. As someone with confusing thoughts, I think his thoughts make sense. It’s characterization too.

Lucille

“I-I’m bothered. I don’t like screaming and crying in front of people, s’all. I’m ugly when I cry.” Lucy stopped smiling and swung back to the top of the…[Read more]

@Whalekeeper

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel sighed. “Well I guess you’re still alive…and seemably happy.” He removed his mask, not worried about her seeing his face again. This time, there was no screeching, the voices were completely silent. He picked up a fruit and tasted it, his face expressing soft confusion. He sat, legs crossed, o…[Read more]

@rae

Lucille

Lucy looked from the Protector to the fruit and back again. She shrugged and slowly smiled, the first time that day.

@whalekeeper

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel sighed with relief. “Very well, though…doesn’t matter, you’re safe.” He adjusted his mask, then looked at the fruits. “Tell me you didn’t eat any of those.”

@loopylin

Ty <3 I try not to say it but I love her character very much
