riley kept his promises and never lied; natalie was a fragile thing of summer and nathan suspected he could catch her lies the way light catches through a spun glass figurine. nathan told himself lies every day, lies he didn’t know were lies, a myriad beginning with i have to and ending with like a sister. “i’m going to be here forever,” he said. a flush crept up his neck at riley’s antics--son of a dick--and with the warm spread of sun on his cheeks, it was like cupid had flown down to him and painted carnations all over. he quickly added, “but that doesn’t change the fact that we live in a shithole compared to”--he waved a hand, unable to express with adjectives what he thought of the magicians, their protectors from the monsters that were going to eat them up, and he’d never grown a religious bone in his life but lord save his poor, dirt soul because the magicians think they’ll believe--“everything.” maybe he just wanted to go on the wall and see for himself so he could come back and point a finger in natalie’s face. riley’s, too, because sometimes he could be such a jackass. natalie labelle riley martel

riley might have been right in thinking to see through nathan’s bluff. nathan was natalie’s man, through and through. but his fingers itched every time he saw salt on her cheeks, and it was less because of the want to rub small circles between her shoulders and more because if he didn’t find some world where natalie would never cry fast enough, he was going to try to rip apart the inner heart with his bare hands and teeth. “it was just a passing thought,” he said under his breath, curiously ashamed. his gut had curled nastily at riley, the boy who would never break a promise. he gently extracted his arm from natalie’s loving grip, and he glared at the setting sun at the end of the alley. the setting sun glared back. natalie labelle riley martel

it was only a wisp of a whisker of a tremor, but it reached inside him all the same and twisted. he shivered, and it was all he could do not to pull her to him. nathan thought he could hear his heart beat its fists against the cage of his ribs. natalie was never meant to sound so small. of course i’m not leaving, was what he wanted to say, why would i leave when you’re right here?“i only said i was thinking about it,” he said, in tones that were half exasperated, half soothing. he looked over the top of natalie’s head. “and that’s fine, dude. i’m sure you can just walk into resistance headquarters and hand in a resume.” the line of nathan’s mouth wriggled angrily. in truth, he’d rather join the resistance, too. it was going to be the next thing he suggested, but riley beat him to it and if nathan admitted to it now it would sound as if he wanted to join the resistance because he was in it. natalie labelle riley martel

nathan sat with his legs sprawled over the edge of a dumpster. it was cool and dusty, a fine seat, tucked in between two eroding buildings of sandstone and grime like an abandoned jewelry box, broken and devoid of pretties. his eyes were caught by the orange evening light at the other end of the alley. “i’m thinking about joining the military,” said nathan. he sniffed, silently daring them to say something about it. he knew at least one of them would. natalie labelle riley martel

“i’m not brooding,” he said, biting his lip. “i’m waiting for my sister.”nathan eyed the woman. why is she talking to me? unconsciously, his hands moved to the hem of his sweater in all its tattered glory. he would never be able to live down his roots; he didn’t belong in the inner heart. but bringing his hands to his sweater would only bring attention to it, and he fretted with his hands briefly before crossing them back across his chest, his cheeks warm. “what are you doing here? it’s not sunday.”astrid patenaude sorry im late, sorry nathans kind of a difficult and insecure child

natalie skipped inside, and nathan was alone. he moved to lean against a column of honeyed bricks. his arms were stiff as logs, his fists wrestled deep into the pockets of his khakis, which were grey-coloured and dirt-coloured as much as they were khaki-coloured. his cable knit sweater was very green and very threadbare. he crossed his arms over his chest against the chill and tucked his hands under his armpits, and he watched thin clouds scuttle across the sky overhead, leaking faint rays of sun. the wind was a long-lost friend, cold fingers ruffling his hair and pinching affectionately at his fraying clothes before drifting on its way. he was staring at the cobblestone under his feet when he heard a voice, and there was a staggered moment between realizing that it was addressed toward him and looking up to see who it was. it was not his sister. “no,” he said simply. he furrowed his eyebrows. “and i never said i was a saint.”astrid patenaude

they stood at the entrance of the cathedral. the doors stood above them, wooden sentinels guarding the sanctity of the notre-dame de paris. nathan stretched his neck, his eyes following its height past the overhang, around the banisters, and over the crenellations to the steeple. he didn’t know if the tightness in his stomach was because of the enormity of the structure or because of his insignificance in comparison. “natalie, i’m not going in,” he said, never peeling his eyes away. after a brief pause, he added, “so you can let go of me now.”natalie labelle astrid patenaude i'm sorry words are failing me rn orz

astrid patenaude dropkick jeremiah to the moon. i like the idea of jeremiah and astrid using each other to dig up information on the other side, a kind of pseudo-friendly business relationship where both sides despise each other but they hide it with polite conversation. jeremiah wouldn’t dare trust her, and would most likely conduct most of their interactions through a djinn in his service. as for nathan and astrid! yes!!! haha, i can see them meeting up on a sunday. he’d be sitting on the steps of some broken-down cathedral or something, waiting for service to be over, and astrid could walk by and be like, “hey, kid, why aren’t you inside,” and nathan’s just, “church is STUPID!!1!” and then somehow the conversation could wind up at the magicians and how much nathan hates them, too. just an idea! natalie labelle rowan liu its coMING yin literally team up with myron and make his life a living hell. sneak in through his window at night, cup his cheek, whisper in his ear sweet nothings as he dreams of burning!! stalk him in alleyways and giggle really faintly so he looks over his shoulder!!!! talk to him and show him teeth!!!!!!!!! a thread with him and a strigoi would just be him fighting to hold onto his dignity while he tries to back down as fast as possible so that back in the office he can angrily ruminate on how to commit mass genocide on the entire strigoi population.

- a magician who sits on the high council. he acts primarily as the head of a spy network composed of djinni, with magician and commoner informants thrown into the mix. he has essentially no information on how the strigoi operate underground, which sends him into a fit of paranoia every now and then.
- hates strigoi, gets hateboners for djinni, views his fellow magicians with mild distaste at best, scoffs at the resistance, deigns to look down on commoners. has delusioned himself into thinking magicians are above all. scared of absolutely everything, is loath to admit it. icy-polite, stuck-up, spiteful; an all-around unlikeable person.
- if you poke him, he will bruise. traumatize gently.
plot ideas: informants, informants, informants; the djinni in his service that he loves to hate and hates to love; other magicians that he can be passive-aggressive to.
- a commoner rug rat born and bred on the streets of the outer ring. he resents the magicians and their hedonistic lifestyle, and seeks to create a better world for his sister. he’ll do anything to join the resistance, once he learns it exists.
- lives for natalie, his twin sister. solemn but fierce. not afraid to use his teeth in a scrap. thinks he fears nothing; thinks strigoi and monsters beyond the wall are things of legend used to subjugate the commoners. absolutely disgusted by religion and any sort of weakness. slowly discovering the inappropriate feelings he harbors for his sister.
- he likes to scream injustice, but he is essentially a small dog barking at the ocean.
plot ideas: fellow street urchins, maybe other members of the pretend knighthood he probably created to defend the weak from stray dogs and perverted old men when he was ten; any sort of connection to the resistance; potential rivals contending for natalie’s affections.
- a war-weary strigoi, formerly a djinn snatched away from the other place and rudely deposited into the carnage of the apocalypse. in his fear and rage, he’d fused himself to the body of a twenty-four-year-old man with the original intention of ripping him apart. over time, his anger cooled and he realized he could physically feel visceral emotion directed at him.
- respectful and mild-mannered, though still capable of grim brutality. dislikes situations that could potentially run feelings rampant or cause major conflict. has the capacity for warmth and the nicer things in life. also has the capacity to cry; is completely unaware of this capacity.
- just a nice young man who acts like a real grandpa sometimes.
plot ideas: other nobles that he’s socially obligated to visit because he’s pretty and magnanimous enough to be invited; poor, scared livestock that caliot couldn’t bear to leave alone since he’d feel their fear too.
