Skylar Rain

My f l o w e r withered between
The p a g e s two and three
The one and forever b l o o m
Gone with my s i n

Letting out a small huff, Skylar sat on her knee's carefully, her leaf green eyes gazing intently at the soil of a percific pot of earthy loam as she touched the soil with her fingers softly, a frown appearing on her face. "It's very... Saturated. It might be too wet for the flowers I want" She whispered to herself quietly and she gazed at the soil thoughtfully for a few seconds longer before her teeth clamped together violently and her hands lashed out, pushing the pot over forcefully and she watched angrily as the pot cracked on the the concrete ground of her small greenhouse and she watched, her expression infuriated as the wet soil poured out onto the grey ground and she let out an annoyed snort. Getting off her knee's and to her feet, flicking her hair back slightly with her pale fingers before storming outside in a huff.

Stopping abruptly in the sun, she stood there fuming silently, her hands balled into fists before letting out an esasperated sigh. "Of course, of course. I can never have good soil! It's always too wet, or too dry or had too little loam, or is more clay. Pssh! This is rubbish!" She snapped angrily, her bright green eyes narrowed and she looked abruptly around with another snort. Her clean clothes had been stained with the loamy soil and she bent down to try and brush the dirt off her overals, she liked dressing up in kids clothing, it gave her a sort of Kinderwh*re feel, which she loved. She crossed her arms across her chest once she had finished and let out a frustrated sigh, how was she supposed to breed the flowers for the gardens when she didn't have the right soil for them to grow well in? They'd end up weak stemmed or too pale in colour.

"Ungreatful" Skylar hissed and sat down abruptly in the short trimmed grass from where she had been standing and with a small groan she layed down and closed her eyes, a crooked frown on her face as she lay there eagle spread, her black hair covering most of her pale face and her slightly baggy kinder clothing covering up her painfully thin form. She opened her eyes slowly and let out a small sigh, she hated getting frustrated and breaking things like that, she did it all too often and she really was sick of it. She narrowed her eyes as she heard a small growl from her stomach and she sighed. I was so engroced in my flowers that I haven't eaten yet today She realized with a scowl.

She stretched her arms to her sides before lifting herself into a sitting position and screwing her face up in distaste. She didn't really feel like eating, she felt a little ill in the stomach, but she was hungry, and when you're hungry, or thirsty, you needed to have something to quench it.

[Sorry for the short post =3= Suddenly lost my muse.]

-x- Lady Anna Christie -x-

Lady Anna Christie was gently arranging the flowers in her shop window. The sweet aroma filled the shop and wafted through the open door. The corsages that she had made recently were in pride of place, and some white climbing flowers were in the process of twining themselves to the window frames. She felt content and happy to be where she was, though her shop would soon be closed as the working day was nearly over.

With a swish of her short, curly, brown hair, Anna lightly crossed over to the counter. After securing that day's income, courtesy of a Prom date asking for a corsage for his girl, a rich man wanting a gift for his wife and a mourner needing some grave-side flowers; in the safe with a smile. "Now what should I do? Visit the rest of the Coven?" Lady Anna asked aloud. "Haven't done that in a while... I wonder if the others are hungry? I have some plants that are not looking their best, still usable of course, but only what a common florist would sell... And it would be a waste of good chlorophyll not to use them. And I would be shown doing a good deed for my fellows."

This was the clinch for Anna. She put on her faux fur coat, bundled up the plants with a practised air and opened the door. Locking up her shop, she went towards her chauffeured vehicle, looking very much the odd one out in the parking lot. Her driver opened the door for her, and helped her into the car. "Where to m'Lady?" He asked. Lady Anna settled herself down and checked that her plants were fine before answering; "Baron Manor, please George." George nodded dutifully and started the car. "Very good, m'Lady."

[Yes, George is based of Parker from Thunderbirds, if any of you guessed. But Lady Anna Christie does not go around in FAB 1, she's to posh.]

Chance Young
And h o n e s t l y;
I'm d o w n like the economy.

Chance had fallen asleep for only a few moments when he heard the bell that was held above the door to his shop jingle. His eyes shot open and looked at the newcomer, hoping that gorgeous girl was back but he jaw fell open when he saw what stood before him. A rather young man with scruff on his chin and crawling up his cheeks, Around twenty.. More then likely.. Possibly thirty. Chance's thought zipped through his mind as he sat with his jaw dangling open. He had black hair, gelled up into a small tip at the front and he wore a pink button up shirt that looked a lot like Chance's, only his was undone entirely, whereas Chance's only had a few buttons undone.

The man pranced into his store and Chance clamped his jaws shut, an audible click resounding through the flower shop. Half-naked man strutted up to Chance's desk and placed his palms onto it, leaning forward in almost the same way Chance had done with the girl who was previously in here, "Scuse me, hun? But I was wondering if you had any tiger-lilies. Kinda like that one in your mouth, but not all chewed up and gross." The man smiled down at Chance, and Chance returned the gesture, "Course we do. But tell me, must you wear your shirt like that? It's not fair to tease." Chance laughed as he pulled the tiger-lily out of his mouth and placed it down on his desk.

Half-naked man laughed a little and pulled himself onto Chance's desk, now sitting with his feet dangling, "Oh, I apologize. I just got back from the beach, I was with my girlfriends." Chance nodded as he listened, staring intently on the muscles that moved with each motion on the man's stomach. "Well.. Chance? You gonna get me my flowers?" Chance's eyes flew up to his and he flashed a grin, "Sorry. Like I said. Teasing. I'll be back in a quick second." Chance hopped up and ran into the back room.

There were shelves upon which potted plants were growing and grabbed one pot then flew into the front room again, "How many of these you want?" The man in the pink shirt bit his lower lip as he inspected the flower, "Twenty." Chance nodded and went about his business gathering twenty of the large tiger-lilies and handing them to the gorgeous man sitting on his front desk. When he was done, he wiped his hand on his forehead, smearing a little dirt on and making his hair stand funny, "That all?"

Half-naked man smirked, counting all the flowers, "Yup. Nice work." He then grabbed a pen and yanked one of Chance's hands toward him and continued to scribble a few numbers on his hand, "My name's Jason. We should talk sometime if you're ever free." Chance grinned and nodded at Jason then moved toward the shop door. He swung it open and bowed down like a servant holding a door for royalty and watched Jason leave. "I'll catchya later then." Chance watched as Jason disappeared into the horizon in his little sports car then turned and made his way for the Manor. Time to catch up.

Akane Kokawa
All I want is to mess a r o u n d and I don't really c a r e about,
If you l o v e me,
If you h a t e me.

Akane dashed up to the Baron Manor, her pigtails flying out behind her and her brow now covered in sweat. Her shoes were slightly scuffed and yet her face still wore that bright grin as she followed the edge of the pond up to the door of the Manor. Unfortunately, she never reached those doors, for she was confronted with a rather strange sight.

"Sophie..?" Akane bit down on her lower lip as she held back the giggles that dared to jump from her throat. Sophie had somehow managed to get stuck high up in a tree and was now hanging with her back reaching for the ground. Akane skipped up closer to the tree, wiping the sweat off her brow and staring up at Sophie with a hand over her eyes to block out any remaining sun light. "Howdja manage to get up there? Lookin' for something?" Akane giggled lightly as she pondered over what Sophie could possibly be trying to reach.

Akane didn't see the moss, nor did she try to look for it, for she was to busy staring at Sophie and wondering what could have possibly made her want to climb that tree in the first place. It must have been something very nice indeed. After a few long moments of giggling, Akane finally spoke up again, "Do you want some help?"

((Hope it's alright that I posted again. And sorry Akane's is so short compared to Chance's. xD Chance is just awesome.))

"Oh shut up." Sophie's face flamed red as she listened to Akane giggle away to herself, obviously finding her particular situation amusing. Sparing a look over her shoulder to try and give the other woman a glare, she immediately regretted it. Whipping her face back around she pressed the side of her face against the harsh bark, though the looming distance between the ground and her body still remained firmly planted in her minds eye.

"And help would be nice." She all but whimpered, her limbs tightening to such a degree around the thick branch that it began to creek and groan under the pressure of her unnatural strength.

Aaron J. Skye
Male | Head Vampire | Botanist | Bisexual

Aaron shoved himself against the glass momentarily, peering out of the tinted windows in to the garden for another Coven member in sight. He paused to find Sophie and Akane struggling to get the pudgy woman out of an oak tree. The head vampire rolled her eyes slightly, a smile coming on to his face - despite his serious attitude at work, watching his coven members fool around was always amusing and a good sight after a long and tedious day only to drop in "goodness" after ruining his notes. Aaron turned and walked back down the stairs, around the banister that surrounded them, and out the door to the garden. A slight breeze rushing over himas he did so.

He took in a deep breath of the fresh and pure air, and casually walked over to the two with a grin. "I see Sophie needs a little help? Were you having fun climbing the trees?" he teased the Brother.

Ashton Williams ;;

((Sorry this is so late! D| I've been way too busy!))

The sound of her three inch heels clicking against the pavement was drown out by the music that flowed into her ears like a wave of freedom. Ashton's iPod was tucked away safely in her purse that was slung around her right arm; the cord of her earphones slipped out of the bag so the earbuds could be placed in her ears. It was nice to finally be off work, thought Ash didn't really mind work. Helping people pick out flowers was not really a taxing career, but it did at times get on the tedious side. Today was one of those slow days where only a few people had actually wandered in, and only one of the handful actually getting anything. She was a petite older woman with snow white hair and wrinkles both deep and shallow deforming her appearance. Ash without her heels only stood at around 5'3", and even without them on there was no way Ash had been shorter than this lady. She came in a spent a few hours wandering through the shop, eyeing Ashton every now and then, and finally purchasing a bouquet of yellow roses. A few hours after that the place was nearly deserted, and so Ashton called it a night. Closing up early wasn't really a common thing for the brunette, but sometimes what had to be done just had to be done!

Baron Manor, her covens "hideout" you could call it was coming closer into view, Ashton's eyes trained on the house's structure in hunger to finally be among her coven. She thought of them as a like a family, since she didn't really have much of one with her other than them. As her feet brought her nearer and nearer, she could see the figures of Akane and Aaron, and, wait, was that Sophie up in a tree? Ash had to double take as she had gone to look down at her purse, only for her eyes to be telling the truth. Sophie was up in the tree. 'Well, isn't this a bit odd...' Ashton thought to herself, pondering what might in fact be going on.

Within moments Ashton was across from her three friends, just as Aaron asked something about Sophie climbing the tree. "So, what exactly is going on here...?" Ashton asked as she reached down to pull her heels off. Her posture became an awkward sort of pose as her left arm kept out to keep her balance, and her right hand reached down to meet her left foot halfway and pull it off, and then her right. With her heels safely off her feet, Ash was able to walk through the grass now, not having to worry about her heels going through the unstable, soil-y earth. As she came closer, she was able to tell by the look on Sophie's face what was going on. Sophie was stuck up there, wasn't she? The scene brought a giggle to Ashton's lips, and a smile of amusement and curiosity.

((Ugh, sorry this is so awful. Totally missing my muse at the moment. Sorry for the shortness and boringness of it all. So sorry you all have to read it. D|))

Skylar Rain

My f l o w e r withered between
The p a g e s two and three
The one and forever b l o o m
Gone with my s i n

Skylar's eyes widened slightly and she looked around as she hear voices. Sitting up, she put her hands on her boney knee's and looked around. Spotting somthing sort of out of place, it was Sophie in a tree. Skylar raised one, dark thin eyebrow and stood up silently and began to walk toward the tree, seeing other people, she cringed slightly before tentively walking over and standing a bit behind everyone, but still having to look up to see their faces. She fiddled with a sleeve of her shirt which was under her overall's before sighing and speaking.

"What's going on?" She asked loudly and abruptly crossed her arms across her chest. Trying to get rid of her social-awkwardness with being loud, though she probably just looked like a bit of an idiot, she knew she felt like one anyway. She scratched her cheek slightly with her long nails and put on a thoughtful expression when she looked up at Sophie in the tree, she almost laughed, but figured that would be a tad too rude, even for her.

[Shoooort shoooort.
Sorry it took so long, I've beenn busy, and a bit lazy T.T]
