Las Levendas REBOOT - Offical Thread


LOCATION: GIGGLY JUICE // DECEMBER 1ST

“Hm… yeah, I’m not familiar with singers of New Orleans. Was it very long ago?” he generally asked. He wanted to know more about his new friend. Bill seemed to be a lovely person. “I haven’t your voice before, but I’ve heard that it’s good. Well, it should be, considering that you were famous in New Orleans. It’d be surprising if it wasn’t… I’ve heard a few popular singers who sing horribly! People really need to start having good taste.” he frowned and continued complaining, not caring if Bill was interested or not; Mikhael wanted to rant for a bit.

Mikhael was fond of Bill’s low voice. The accent made it even better! He was debating whether or not to sing in his German accent. No… that would ruin the song. Hm… it’s been quite some time since he last spoke German. That reminded him of his home town… He stopped singing, thinking about his family. Wondered if they were doing well. His siblings must be adults now, having stable jobs and a happy family, or maybe not… He wasn’t in touch with them, but he did miss them.

After a hot minute, he realised that he stopped. “Ah! Sorry, I just… got distracted…” he apologised and restarted the chorus. He sounded sad and his voice cracked. “Ahem,” he cleared his throat and resumed the song. He hoped Bill didn’t mind him stopping for a brief minute. He gestured to him to continue and sing along.

“No, I won’t stop,” she smirked and continued stroking his hair. He did not like it and moved away. Aphro didn’t care. If she wanted to fondle his hair, she will. If she wanted him, she will have him one way or another. She always got what she wanted. People call her spoiled, but that’s how gods and goddesses are. All are dumb, power-hungry idiots (other than Hades, of course) who care only about themselves. But the mortals worshipped them anyway. They just kept feeding their ego, thinking that they were the greatest; when in reality, they’re just ordinary, insecure people who happen to have a few powers! Aphro was something of that sort.

Aphro flinched when he started laughing. It sounded horrible but she decided to ignore it. “Never say never, Ton-Ton. You don’t know when things might happen. It would be quite sad if you do develop feelings for me. I don’t like you in that way and I won’t ever (tell that to Aphro from Tonphrodite-).” Her eyebrows raised, “What is that other reason?” she asked. She wasn’t interested in him, but she was curious. It would be stupid if she was interested in him romantically. She knew she was just one of his flings but she was starting to get attached to him. Well, who wouldn’t? He was attractive and famous and… yes, just attractive and famous. Gaston’s personality was a bit trash but that didn’t matter to her.


“I know I did well.” she scoffed. Snuggling closer, she closed her eyes and relaxed. He was very warm. She almost drifted off to sleep but was interrupted when he said he had to go. ‘So soon?’ she thought and clutched his arm. “Why don’t you leave tomorrow? It’s late… and I don’t mind you staying over tonight,” she slowly started rubbing his arm, a hint of unhappiness shown in her eyes. She didn’t want him to go. At least, not now. She really didn’t want to be alone right now. She was silent for a while. She let go of his arm when she realised she was probably being clingy. But why? Was she that lonely? “Um, sorry, you can go… I guess. I could drive you back to your house too!” Aphro was acting unusual and she knew it. She tried very hard to hide it.

“Im ok with it taking time as long as you think you can get used to this. This is really nice.” I giggle as I smile at him . “I try to be strong but its not a strong suit of mine generally speaking. I kind of bottle things up and push them aside. Thats not strong that avoidance.” I mumble as I squeeze his hand. “Your one of a kind to Genosta.”

Upset, she turned and left the store. Her plan failed, quite miserably. “Damn it!” she screamed as she took her broomstick and hopped on it. If only the Munchkins were here, she thought to herself. I’d be able to torture at least one of them. Of course she was still seething about losing her kingdom to her enemy. Mother Gothel made it all worse for her.


New Day

Cordelia looked outside the window. Still winter, still snowing. Beautiful as always. It may be the perfect time to go on a walk, too, she pondered as she watched the snow fall onto the ground. Then she glanced at her broomstick. “Hmm… maybe I will just walk today,” she said to herself and picked out a long red trench coat instead of her normal black fur coat. She put it on and looked at herself in the mirror. “I was born to be a queen, I just haven’t gotten my kingdom yet,” Cordelia stated with a wicked smile. “Once I find it, I’ll take it, regardless of who it belongs to.” She slowly put her gloves and shoes on as she continued talking to herself.
“And if anyone gets in my way? They’ll meet a tragic ending.” She smirked at her reflection and left.

I started to chuckle. “I sure hope so, I don’t wish my history on anyone, even my enemies” I said with a slight smile. “There’s more to being strong than dealing with your emotions, it’s how you move on that shows real power. You didn’t turn to hate the world, you didn’t stop believing in the value of your actions” I said. “I started wasting my life” I mumble.

I loved even this little smile it looked really good on him. “Your smile is really cute Genosta.” I hold his hand as he talks to me. “Really I just was me I took things hard at first but I couldn’t stand living like that. It just made me feel worse. So I pretended to be ok until it hurt less.” I mumbled not to proud of myself. “You were not waisting it you just were waiting on me to show up so you could start living it with me.”

I chuckled. “I don’t remember the last time I honestly smiled for anything, so you’re seeing something rare at this point, maybe not that rare later on” I said but then I shook my head. “I was wasting it, Meeting you was the only good thing I have donce since my second chance. I’ve done nothing with my life…” I said. And realized. “Maybe thats it…“I said softly, more to myself than to Archer while I touched my own cheek that was decaying.” That’s why it was hurting less yesterday” realized.

“Well I will cherish it then because it suits you really well.” I smiled and played back on his chest again. “I hope it gets less rare I like when you smile Genosta.” I kept playing with his hair while we talked and cuddled. I was happy I had told him how I really felt. “Hey now you have a chance you have time just know now we can do this whole life thing together.” I looked up at him and smiled as looked in his eyes. He made me feel safe and content something I had been looking for my whole life. “Wait Genosta what do you mean that’s why it hurt less yesterday?”

I smiled at him. “thanks” was the only thing I was able to come up with for his kind words. I really didn’t know how to respond to him. He gave me something I never had before and gave it to me like it was nothing.

I pointed at my decaying face. “I was talking about this. I got it when I got my second chance and it has been growing more every day. The past 2 days and today were the first time they didn’t hurt” I explain. “Maybe it is a judgement of how well I use my second chance” I said with a shrug.

I rubbed my eyes as we cuddled and smile at him he was so nice to me and I was glad that he had any words to tell me when I complimented him. I knew it was something he was no where near used to at all. When he pointed at his face I tipped my head kind of confused. “If you don’t mind me asking what do you mean second chance Genosta?” I ask as I kiss his cheek. “I make you not hurt anymore?!” I was surprised but I was glad I took some of his pain away at least. “Maybe that means with me you are on the right path Genosta.”

I think for a bit. I didn’t want to tell him about my past yet, for that it was too soon, but I didn’t want to lie either. “Oh…uhm…w-well it’s like it sounds… I…uhm…got a second chance to live” I explain while also being a bit taken off guard by the kiss. I then chuckle and poked his cheek softly. “It still hurts but you did stop the pain from growing” I said.
I then nodded. “Maybe, or it means that you make me happy and are able to give me a chance to live my life the right way” I then said honestly.

I smile and hold his hand close to my heart. “No problem and Im glad you feel safe enough with me to tell me about at least that.” I smile as we lay there. “I think your handsome despite anyone telling you different.” I lay my head on his chest as we just cuddle. This was what I had wanted for so long and it felt better than I could have ever imagined.

I smiled at his words. he was so kind and accepting it was nothing I had ever had. “I know I keep saying it, but I do mean it, thank you, Archer, you have no idea how much it means to me to hear this from someone,” I tell him honestly and rested my head on his own, feeling his soft hair tickling my skin. “You’re not too shabby yourself” I then said in his ear

“Don’t lie to me, I know you like me.” Gaston raised his eyebrow defiantly. He could not be faulted for his lack of self-confidence. And this time, he was convinced that Aphro liked him more than she verbally showed. “And I? I cannot fall in love with you.” He chuckled. “The reason behind our meetings is…” Gaston could not explain it in words. He preferred to act than to speak.

And so he did this time.

Leaving a brief harsh kiss on her lips, he thought that was enough of an answer. It was an intimacy they often indulged in, but, unlike those fairy-tale kisses, theirs were devoid of what usually defined them - love. They had heat, almost electric voltage, and lust, but… they weren’t real. They lied into their eyes, pretending to be something that was not given them to be. Though Gaston knew love wasn’t their fundament… in nature, he couldn’t be sure of it. After all, he has never experienced the kiss of true, vital love that exists spontaneously and never dies completely. A kiss that every princess desires, chasing frogs, jumping around the pond. A kiss that he didn’t know existed and that he didn’t believe existed.

Will he ever start to think it’s real? Well… only the future will show.


“Are you crazy, Aphro?” Gaston broke free from her embrace. “Belle can’t find out about us, do you understand?” If I stayed here, what would I tell her?" He turned his back to her and headed for her bedroom door. “You don’t have to give me a lift.” She was acting weird, and Gaston was starting to dislike it. He didn’t mind the attention, but Aphro began to freak out a little. “I’ve stayed long enough. Longer than usual. I have to go." He addressed her firmly. “Goodbye, Aphro. We’ll probably meet next week.” And he left without adding anything else.

It was awfully late - 11pm. D*mn it.

Belle would suspect something. Gaston was sure of it.

He had to hide all traces. Have a credible alibi. And there was only one person who could provide it for him.

LeFou, if Belle had asked, we were together.

Realizing how weird that may sound without context, he quickly added to clarify:

In the tavern.

He removed both of the messages to not leave any traces behind.

LeFou was the only person who knew about Gaston’s secret endeavors. After all, the man liked to brag about his mistresses. The past ones, the ones he had now… and even the ones he would like to court in the future. He couldn’t possibly talk about it with his wife for known reasons… so LeFou was the only person left.

And Gaston was sure, that his best friend would never rat him out.

Never.


“Belle, I’m back!” he sounded as if nothing had happened, as if he hadn’t done anything wrong. He has always liked to make people aware of his presence. Gaston left his jacket on the hanger and headed for their bedroom. “You must have missed your husband terribly, Belle.”

I giggle when I feel his head on mine. “You are still welcome Genosta.” I say as I play with his hair. Genosta didn’t seem to realize he had done just as much for me as I had for him and I was happy that we could be there for each other. I smile “Are you sure im not too shabby?” I ask giggling softly.

I chuckled and felt a little impulsive. I looked at him and pushed him over so I was on top of him. “Yes, I’m very sure, maybe you’re even slightly better than shabby,” I said as I looked him in the eye. There was a boost of confidence that I never had before as I held his hands above his head and grinned.

I couldn’t help but chuckle. “It’s a sound that I actually thought I couldn’t make, so feel honored because you’re the only person who can hear it right now” I tell him as he wraps his legs around my side.

I start to laugh and shake my head. “I really have no idea” I tell him sincerely and try to move down slightly because his body is longer than mine and I could understand that this was not the most comfortable position, but while doing this I put my hand on a piece of cushion from the couch that sticks out and so sinks, causing me to fall down and pull Archer with me.

Previous day - December 1st


“Let’s just say I could only dream of growing stubble back then.” He joked. ‘Back then’ sounded so evasively. Bill didn’t want to lie to Mikhael, but they knew each other briefly. How did he know if he could trust him? Despite the thread of understanding that definitely existed between the two, Bill couldn’t just tell him the truth. Despite living in such a magical city, he would definitely be considered a madman. Just like Mikhael now. He was acting definitely way too upset because the new singers had a tin ear. In fact, his friend’s anger was so ridiculous that it made Bill feel a sudden rush of joy.

Mikhael had a voice that could bring back life, move mountains, and ruffle seas. And Bill found himself being enchanted and excited as he waited for the following notes. For more sounds flying out of Mikhael’s mouth like innocent spring butterflies. Singing with him was a mesmerizing experience.

Then the boy stopped singing. Bill didn’t know why. He didn’t care. He was never interested in the feelings and actions of others. He didn’t like to ask, and this time he wasn’t going to. “Listen, Mikhael … if you don’t want to sing, you don’t have to.” he patted him on the back. He waved at the pianist, informing him to stop playing for a moment. “Have a drink, go for a walk. I won’t be offended, man.” he gave him a sunny smile. “We can… you know… meet another time. Whenever you feel like it.”
