g'day! I'm so bloody late but quick question before I write the starter. Hayseed Junkrat or Normal Junkrat?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Pyromaniac witch. here is your starter dear! i hope it's okay!
There lies in the large forest of Sebeth an old, disused church, established - quite likely - roundabouts the same time as the (equally) old, disused well in its close vicinity, judging by their common signs of age and neglect: moss and cobwebs decorated both, and both had long-since begun crumbling slightly here or there. All the same, both remained standing, if largely abandoned - and quite the pity that was, at least in the case of the chapel, for it still had the same atmosphere about it as it had centuries ago. It was cozy in that quaint, peculiar way; still worthy of reverence, as places of worship are. Small as it was in comparison to the church in the other kingdom, even the kingdom after that (and also on account of its odd coziness), one might have even thought it 'adorable'. Above all was the only quality with which its sole visitor these days had any real interest: it was quiet, as one would rightly expect. Unnervingly quiet, even, if one were to see fit to add an adjective there.
Not that the possessed princess would ever be one to complain about the place being 'too quiet', that having been said. Despite having taken up temporary residence in the sacristy of the church for only a short period of time (even a quarter of an hour would have been a generous estimate),and despite being the furthest thing that you would ever expect to find in a church (she was more demonic in nature now than human) she'd already made the place a home away from home once more: papers with various writings and arcane symbols littered a desk against the back wall in an oxymoronically ordered mess; an small inkwell, meanwhile, sat nearby, as did a quill, ready to be used at any one moment, the entire affair lit rather measly by one candle. If that weren't enough, she herself seemed to be relaxed, if to a barely noticeable degree, having rid of the usual coat and hat for now by means of hanging them over one of the tall candelabra in the corners of the room. There's perhaps something that could be said about somebody who found comfort in an decrepit church - least of all when alone - but, be that the case, she remained either uncaring or simply oblivious about so much.
No sooner had she seized the quill from the desk, however, than she heard a gentle creak from behind her- the door, undoubtedly. Although the presence of another wasn't the first, nor the only possibility she considered (there was always, of course, the possibility of a curious rat or of a slight draught), it was the one ultimately acted upon. Just for good measures, most likely: not for years had there been - to her knowledge - a visitor to the church for quite obvious reasons, but the very same could have been said as regard to there having never once been an accidental audience to one of her moonlit activities. The activities themselves being of the illegal type.
Having turned her head only slightly to the right, as though not entirely bothered as to whether she did have company for the evening (besides the rats and the wind, naturally), something reminiscent of an annoyed sigh passed through pale lips. Truth be told, Maria found there to be a bigger annoyance in somebody - assuming there was a 'somebody' - feeling the need to slink about a building as empty as this one than in there being a somebody in the first place; in either case, it wasn't something she allowed herself to fret over too much, as told by her having returned to her business but a moment before she spoke up, voice perhaps a touch colder than usual─
"Don't let my presence disturb your exploration, by all means. Prepare for disappointment if you're looking for something of any interest in here, however - I should think the place was been robbed of its valuables some time ago."

in love! here's your starter! :]i. Babi was able to feel others' distress. Like little alerts popped up in his body; someone just suffered a major heartbreak! Or they just needed someone to talk to. They could be hundreds of miles away or just a few feet a part.
ii. The day Babi had his little sensor go off for Dove, he went to find her immediately. Knowing no prior knowledge of her before, he was just assuming it was a breakup or a loss as per usual with others. His senses led him to a building with a sign that read "REPTILE BREEDING".
iii. He stood outside, waiting for her to come out. Maybe she was a customer. As time passed, he started to make the safe assumption she worked there. His legs began to ache from standing around, so he went and sat on a bench nearby, where he could watch the doors. After a couple more hours, the doors opened, a young lady leaving. It was her!
iv. Without thought, he quickly made his way over, waving at her with a radiant smile on his features. His intro wasn't ever planned- sometimes he comes off a bit weird.
" Hello ! "

( thank you!! <3 )
/ in the case of dove, it was nor heartbreak or loss. it was a
case of extreme loneliness. she hated to admit it, and she never
would to someone else. but deep within her being, she knew that
was it. day in day out, she would isolate herself. it wasn't so much
of because she wanted to. it was more because she was scared to
get close to others. or it was just her social anxiety. or both!
/ today was no different. she had no intentions of going anywhere
but home to sleep and eat. maybe wake up really late to get some
game time in before she went in the next day.
/ she was taken aback by just how bright and cheery he was ... also
with the sudden greeting. nobody really just approached her like that.
well, strangers wouldn't.
/ she cleared her throat and nervously picked at the hem of her jacket.
❝ g--goodness. ah, h--hello there. d--did you need somethin' here? ❞

i. To the cupid's dismay, he was no stranger to loneliness either. Though
he had powers, and wings, and could read people.. he was still human too.
He is still part mortal, he will die from old age and grow with time. Babi
felt emotion and pain like anyone, if not more.
ii. When the two locked eyes, he immediately read her, and to his
surprise, he wasn't called to her for some petty breakup or an insignificance,
she was merely lacking a partner or someone to care about her.
" Oh, I'm sorry ! I'm Babi. "
iii. He planned on not-so-subtly becoming apart of her life. Often,
he did this to people. Usually it worked, and they didn't mind him. Not that
he's not enjoyable to be around. Looking down at her, the dark pools in
his eyes sparkled.
" Are you Dove ? I'm looking for her, she needs me. "

[ / Akira wasn't sure where he was but it definitely wasn't home and probably needed some directions towards the nearest airport but first he wanted to explore.
[ / He continued walking around the place while stumbling upon somewhere to grab something to eat, He hasn't exactly eaten anything so he headed there.

/ dove was walking about in the mall to finish up some
shopping when she managed to bump into the other. she was quick
to apologize, taking a few steps back and looking the male over to
make sure she didn't somehow injury him.
❝ ah, m--my bad ... i am a bit clumsy-- ❞
❝ are you alright? ❞

So, to cut it short, Specter was absolutely lost.
He had wandered slightly too far from Inkwell and... he was here now?
Looking around, he was majorly confused about everything.
--Right. There was grass there, that was obvious. But everything else was just... ???
Of course, during his quick inspection of everything, he noticed someone.
It looked like a person, actually.
Well, he swiftly removed the eye from the palm of his hand and just.
Sent it to go to her, lowkey hoping it'd scare her.
It slowly did that, and moved in front of the girl, blinking once.

dove was just minding her own business as usual.
she was walking back from work when the eyeball hovered
in front of her. for a moment, she didn't react. no, she just
stared at it. once she registered what it was, she let out a
shriek and, surely to Specters dismay, punched it.
how else was one to react? well, maybe just scream and run
away, but dove was a big gal. punching threats usually worked.

/ something about his gaze rendered her frozen in place.
this wasn't too hard to do with a look with her. even a friendly
gaze would make her nervous from time to time, but the lack
of emotion was what made her ... intimidated.
/ but as he spoke, she eased a bit. dove was almost expecting
something harsh to fly from his mouth. but! he simply wanted
to know where he was.
/ she cleared her throat, nervously tugging on the bottom of her
hoodie.

/ the most time that passed, the more nervous she
seemed to become. yes, that outburst sure did scare her. that
didn't take too much, though. everything scared her.
/ it was a pathetic trait of hers, admittedly ...
❝ w ... where do you w--want to go? i will try my best t--to help. ❞
/ assuming her nerves weren't fried from how flustered she was.
/ which they probably were. the thought alone made her head hurt
a small bit ...

It was another long day at as school as usual - another day come and gone without anything really interesting going on. And here Yuri was, deciding to read outside today instead of hiding out in the classroom. For the most part, she thought no one was here. After all, the campus was fairly empty - save for a few passersby on the sidewalk who paid her no mind.

( than k u i love........... )
---
being around a campus felt so alien to dove nowadays. while it
had only been a year or so since she was freed from schools clutches,
she tended to forget that school existed to begin with. no wonder, with
how much of a shut in she is.
dove was stopped in front of this girl ... eyes focused on her, and then the
book in her hands. she seemed lonely ... and boy, did she understand loneliness.
she cleared her throat and offered a nervous grin.
❝ w--whatcha readin'? ❞
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
In truth, Yuri was rather used to being ignored- in fact, she often isolated herself by choice. It was the result of the constant bullying she'd suffered because of her...more unusual interests. Her...physical appearance played a role in that as well, but we won't go into detail.
Hearing the unexpected voice snapped her out of the world she'd lost herself in by reading this book. Looking up with a start, she looked at the other with apprehension, "O-Oh...." She closed the book, using her thumb to mark her spot, "I-It's nothing special." One could tell it was one of her more spooky books...with that ominous eye on the cover. Horror is one of her favorite genres after all.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
her eyes went back to the book. whatever it was, it had to be
suspense/horror. with a cover like that, what else could it really
be? dove wasn't much of a reader herself, but horror stuff always
had her attention.
❝ looks spooky. i--i can dig that. scary stuff always makes for a
good read. ❞
hands interlocked, she nibbled at the inside of her cheek before
speaking up once again.
❝ m--may i sit next to you? ❞
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yuri immediately felt a little shy - she wasn't used to people approaching her. After all, most tended to stay away for various reasons. Her grip on the book tightened slightly, though when she heard the others interest in horror, she perked up just a tiny bit,
"Yes...horror is always good at holding one's interest. It's one of the reasons I enjoy it so much."
She goes quiet for a moment - Yuri can get carried away rather easily when talking about things she enjoys. Yuri offers a small smile before nodding, "It's...if you'd like to. I wouldn't mind."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
dove slowly sat down, her knees popping in response. she let out a soft grunt, but quickly shook it off. dove found shy people to be far more interesting. being one herself, she knew they had great potential. potential to be amazing.
" my grandma collects steven king books. gave me them, but i don't read much. "
she debated passing them off to her if she showed interest in it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yuri heard her knees pop and winced ever so slightly. Probably because she knows how it feels...only, in her case, it's back pain that bothers her. She opens her book back up, but doesn't readily focus on it, "Yes....King's work can be hard to digest. Especially for those who aren't used to reading. Hmm....you might enjoy this one I'm reading now. It's an easy read...might be worth checking out."
She gave the other a shy look, "My name is Yuri, by the way..." If they're gonna be chatting, it wouldn't hurt to know each other's names.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
❝ yuri ... is a pretty name.
i'm dove. pleasure to meet you. ❞
it was odd. dove loved to write, but when it came to reading?
it was incredibly hard to keep her interested. and hard to just
make her sit down and read in general. she never really knew
why this was the case.
❝ i assume you're goin' to the school here? ❞
her gaze went to the surrounding area. it was a nice campus, she
had to admit. much better than her old school anyway.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course, the compliment caught her off guard just a little bit, a small splash of color hitting her face. Yuri never took compliment lightly, nor was she used to receiving them. Of course, she always appreciated them, she just never knew how to respond to them, "The pleasure is mine, Dove."
She nodded at the girl's question, "I do. I graduate this year though so...it won't be long before I'm heading off somewhere else." She doesn't know if she is going to miss it here or not. Perhaps it depends on how many of her friends - as few as there are - end up going to the same university as her.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
they were in same in that regard. compliments never really
occurred. more like dove gave them to everyone else, but none came
her way. she knew why, and she accepted it.
❝ i thought so. h--how ya feelin' bout' it? i know i was excited
to be free of school once i graduated. ❞
but all it did was cause more issues. one after another. more responsibilities
that she couldn't handle quite yet. but now, she had stabilized. for now.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And Yuri wasn't very good at giving them, to be honest. Or at least, she didn't think she was...under all that shyness, she really is a passionate person. Needless to say, when given the chance to be herself, she can be a bit overwhelming. Which, in turn, drives people away.
"Hmm...I'm not really sure what to expect, if I am to be completely honest. Knowing me, I'll probably end up sitting by myself at lunch just like I do here. University is just a bigger highschool...when you think about it."
She wasn't good with people...like at all. Approach a new person to start a conversation? Dove's already leagues braver than her. Yuri was good at reading body language, but expressing her own emotions was a challenge for her and something she rarely did. Even with friends, Yuri was a little guarded unless they expressed a desire to know her beyond the rumors that have been spread about her.

❝ yeah, pretty much. but my ma told me college is like ...
different. no ones that much of an ass because they ain't
there to dick around and harass people. they pay to be there,
y'know? ❞
that being said, she was still too afraid to go. perhaps because
she had no one she knew going with her. it would be just like
when she moved. everything was new and terrifying. hell, life
itself is terrifying to her.
❝ heh ... i don't even know what i wanna major in. i'm sorta jus'
waitin' round' before i actually go myself ... ❞
