Mod
Me: I dun care. xD She can still attempt. Hehehe I luv Avery.
ZOMG Ivi, we'll need to do a Bennett wif her soon.
.... I just said that, too. O-o
Mod
Okay. It'll at least be amusing for my wittle Evanny.
Evander: *sighs*
Me: TIME TA GO~For now...
START THE RP WHEN YOUR READY WHIM.
AND IF WE WANT OUR FAVOURITE GAY MEN TOO YOU CAN START THAT;)
Me: :)OH. If you never got the exact RP:
"Shoot."
Those green eyes flitted his direction and lingered there for only a mere second. And then Avery was on her feet, recognizing that very orange hair, and her hands were over her mouth. She turned without a word to Iviana and began to run.
"Avery!" Bennett yanked his foot away from where it had been caught. His pant leg was torn. He'd deal with that later. He sprinted after her, moving the branches away from him as he went. He could hardly see her. She didn't stop. She didn't slow. She didn't make it easier for him to catch up, but she didn't make it harder. She was divided. Half of the daughter of Phobos told her to stop and hear him out. The other half of the Huntress told her to keep running and forget about this. So Avery decided to let Bennett choose for her.
"Avery!" he called again. He didn't know what to say, how to comfort her, how to do anything to make anything better. Bennett kept going, though. The branches seemed to thicken, making it harder for him to push out of the way. He never went further into the forest than the pathways. "Avery, wait!"
She turned her head once, to look behind her. And that was /her/ fatal mistake. Without the ability to watch where she was going, Avery both was whipped in the cheek with on of those very same branches and tripped over a rock. But Avery didn't let a little blood or a small stumble faze her. She got back up and began running again.
"Oh gods," Bennett muttered, ducking under a few of the branches. He'd seen seen her fall. He picked up the pace, determined to catch up with her. But as the forest thickened, it became more demanding to maneuver through. He'd lose her soon. One last desperate call--"Avery!"-- and then he staggered over a tree root. Or perhaps that was a mischievous dryad's foot? He didn't bother to check.
Avery stopped entirely as she heard the fall. She could have, /should/ have kept going, but she didn't. What if this was the god's way of giving her a chance? What if they were telling her that she could run, she could simply turn away from this mistake and not face any consequences?
But what if it wasn't? What if they were instead testing her, seeing how much she truly cared for the boy?
Avery stood there, semi-hidden amidst thick vines and round branches and dark leaves. Her arms hung by her side and she managed to conceal her laboured breathing as she tried to think it through. What if the gods had nothing to do with this. What if it was sheer, dumb luck?
But was it truly luck? Was she /lucky/ that he fell? Or did some part of her want him to catch her, to comfort her, to hold her in his arms and tell her it was alright?
For once in her life, Avery Aaliyah Fovós was undecided.
She stopped. Thank gods. Bennett made his way towards her, ignoring the pain in his foot as best he could. "Avery?"
His call was uncertain this time. He didn't want to confront her at the moment. But there wasn't any way he could turn back. Not right now, when she was standing right in front of him.
And then suddenly Avery was on the ground, back up against the trunk of a tree, shoulders heaving with sobs. She didn't look at Bennett, she didn't speak. All she did was cry. Never before had anyone seen her this weak. Later she would feel ashamed, perhaps even angry. But she felt nothing right now.
Bennett was still standing, uncertain. Would it be considered wrong to comfort her? He didn't think so. But it might. He shook his head slightly, and then sat down beside her, awkwardly patting her shoulder in a weak attempt at comfort.
And still no response. The tears just kept coming, rolling childishly down her cheeks. When she cried, she looked nothing less than a little child.
"Avery?" Bennett repeated, queitly.
"J-just go," Avery choked out in between sobs.
"Well, I'm not gonna leave now," Bennett muttered.
And for that, Avery had no answer. She dropped her head into her hands and took a deep, shaky breath, trying to calm herself.
Bennett patted her shoulder again, he, too, not knowing what to say.
Her breathing finally evened out. She took one hand and wiped her cheek; the pale hand came away with both tears and blood. She stared at the mess for a few moments before wiping her hands on the dirt and leaves beneath her. Still she said nothing.
"Avery, I'm sorry," he muttered, removing his hand from her shoulder and instead wrapped it around his ankle.
Avery shook her head slowly. "Just leave it."
"I don't think we should."
She took another shaky breath and said nothing.
"Avery..."
"/Leave it/, Bennett." One flit of those bright green eyes, narrowed with warning.
He sighed. "Fine, Avery."
And with those two words, Avery visibly relaxed. She rested her head on the trunk of the tree, sighing.
Bennett was quiet for a moment longer before muttering, "I have to go."
/Of course he does./ Avery didn't say a word. She didn't look up. She didn't react. She simply stared down at her hands blankly.
He lingered a moment, then sighed and stalked away.
Avery stared after him. The minute he was out of sight she let her walls down and broke down again.
.... She sang a song before. It's called "On my Own" from Les Miserables.
;)
Me: Mhm. It was fun.OKAY. I HAS TO GO.
SET UP EVANDER/AVERY AND SERAPIS/JACE.

xD Fire, a little gentler. And less... Mean. She's really quiet and... Just, like, a scared little girl.
She's got wiccaphobia.
Which is the fear of witches or witchcraft.
IE, herself.
:) She cries a lot around Ivan and usually get hugs;)

Me: Alright, I've read the character page, so I should be a little more clear on how she supposed to act. Noel: ...
Me: You know, what's her age right now? 11? It said 9, almost 10, but that was a long while ago...
Noel: Where can I find Ivan?
Me: I've found it, BTW. Is her age still 10?
Me: She's 10. Young in comparison.Her new, power-ififed personality:
Basically, by herself she'll cry. All the time. Around others she tries to be the same. She's just.... Afraid. That's kinda it.
Think of a little baby cartoon deer staring into the face of a big ass lion.
The deer is Noel ;)
Been doing some back-reading (to further figure things out) and can I say I really like Avery? (or can I tell her to her face in this thread? ;P)
Avery: .....?Me: xD she isn't very used to compliments...
Avery: Thanks, I think...?
