@astxrism

it’s not that she needs to make everyone like her and think she’s good looking she just…

Rightttt
Also I love this writing style for Aurora

@astxrism

Because can we just think about it for a second - was he flirting with her?! You don’t compliment someone this much when you just met them. Good at spreading sunshine? Yes… Keep them coming. “I-” She started but her own laugh cut off her words. This year sure was going to be a good one, will it not? “Are you naturally this charming? You know… That might be a problem around here,” she tried to return the same energy, letting him interpret her last words in his own way. What did she really mean when she said that? I don’t know, what do you think?

She’s such a dork I want her so bad

@astxrism

As she arranged the sheet music and tuned the instruments, she hummed a melody that floated through the air. Her humming was almost habitual, a comforting sound that filled the room with her joy and passion for music. She had a habit of tapping her fingers in rhythm to an imaginary beat, a quirk that her students had come to find endearing. With her classroom now ready Maria took a moment to herself. She stood at the window, gazing out at the lush grounds of Ninth House. The early morning light bathed the landscape in a soft, golden glow, and she felt a deep sense of gratitude. She closed her eyes and whispered a silent thank you to the universe for guiding her to this place.

She’s cute

@CerealKiller

Welp here comes mr steal your btch
Again

@CerealKiller

His words were accompanied by a lighthearted chuckle, tinged with a hint of mischief.

Kairo rn

@CerealKiller

but Kai decided to set aside his questions for the moment and simply enjoy the pleasant exchange

Mistake #1
This is why libras always die in horror movies

@CerealKiller

innit?”

You brits must be stopped

@CerealKiller

house affiliation

This sounds like they’re gangs HAHAHAJS
I been watching too much on my block

@astxrism

He had planned a series of lectures and discussions designed to unravel the complexities of human psychology, to explore the hidden fears, desires, and motivations that drive behavior.

Bro has been here since psychology was created

@astxrism

a reminder of his past and the journey that had brought him here.

I feel like there’s a secret involved here

@astxrism

They knew of his reputation, of the rumors that surrounded him, and they wondered what this year would bring.

ISI WHAT ARE RHE RUMORS

@astxrism

as if he were carrying the weight of countless secrets. T

Ok so Hes a murderer fs

@astxrism

Some whispered that he had been involved in a duel with a rival scholar,

Ooohhhhh
I wanna guess who

@astxrism

You,“ he said, his voice cold and unwavering. ”Out. No one interrupts my class.“

Woahhh
Hes mean

@Caticorn

Lenore liked strolling the school grounds at night. It helped her wind herself down and get ready to go to sleep. Usually, she found herself alone and unbothered on these little adventures of hers but not tonight. She saw the boys at the other end of the hallway and hoped that if she walked fast enough, she could pass them without engaging with them. Unfortunately, the opposite happened, the men sped up and came at her.

Lenore so real

@Caticorn

an explanation which Lenore was less inclined to believe.

What?!?
He did fall down the stairs!! Twice!!

@Caticorn

She would never have been able to sleep at night if he belonged to the Coven

Also real

@Caticorn

“Eejits.”

Idiots I’m assuming

@Caticorn

rubbing her temples when the shock had worn off and she watched them scramble to pick him up off the ground. She became concerned for the boy’s well-being should he remain in their care, not confident that he would live to see the morning from pure stupidity and negligence. They asked her a second time to take him off their hands. “Fine. Give him to me. Gently.” She agreed,

So cute
This is exactly how I imagined Lenny

@Caticorn

She agreed, stressing the last part as she was fairly certain that if they dropped him on the ground again, she likely wouldn’t be able to pick him up.

BUR RECOGNIZE THAT HES THE GUY FROM FHE BALL

@Caticorn

Your absence was noted but it didn’t keep me up at night, if that’s what you’re worried about.” She teasingly reassured him, not wanting to give him the satisfaction of hearing her say that she wished she had run into him, even if it were only for a moment’s conversation.

Yanno I think Lenore is rising on my leaderboard rn
I like her a lot
Dare I say top 5

@astxrism

BESFRENNNNN

@astxrism

His footsteps were almost inaudible, a choice improved over years of practice.

OHH???
SNEAKY FCK
HES A SNIPER

@astxrism

master

Freaky

@astxrism

Wherever he went, the light seemed to dim, as if the very air around him responded to his presence.

Bars

@astxrism

as if he wanted to find that one student who dared to challenge him back, and with that was worthy of the knowledge The Whisperer could offer.

Umbra boys
Who will be the chosen one

@astxrism

so ripe for molding.

Oh yeah u hella weird bruh

@astxrism

The fear of his potential reaction was punishment enough.

Bar

@astxrism

She reminded him of himself at that age, though he’d never admit it.

Mani??

@astxrism

The Whisperer walked over to them, his shadow seeming to grow and stretch across the floor, enveloping those students in a dark, suffocating embrace.

BARS BARS BARS

@astxrism

Remember this moment,” he hissed. With a flick of his wrist, the shadows around the boy deepened and wrapped around him. The boy’s eyes widened in terror as he felt the darkness closing in, his breath coming in short, panicked gasps.

“But don’t fear,” another whisper he added to the boy before he released him, the shadows disappearing as quickly as they had appeared. The boy collapsed onto the bench, gasping for air as his friends stared in stunned silence. The Whisperer straightened, his composure once again impeccable. “Let this be a successful year to us all,” he stated, his quiet voice carrying through the now silent dining hall. With that, he turned and walked away, the room seeming to grow darker in his wake.

ISI WHAT THE HELLLLLL
THIS IS SO GOOD

@astxrism

The Whisperer. It was fitting, really. He had spent a lifetime mastering the art of subtlety.

Kinda giving cipher
I wonder if that’s purposeful

@astxrism

required a firm hand,

Shadowed hand??

@astxrism

get people to put some trust into her.

Evil

@astxrism

“Just be careful not to end up in the dungeons,” Aurora added in an attempt to joke, lightly nudging him with her elbow.

I hope she’s not joking
Dungeons would be so metal

@astxrism

You’ll find some of the best hidden spots that way.” T

I need someone else to unlock the other doors in the conservatory

@astxrism

But back to Kai - His playful remarks about charm being a problem made her laugh, a soft, melodic sound that filled the hallway.

She thinks she’s a manic pixie
But Kairo is her manic pixie

@astxrism

Aurora made the light above them flicker for a few seconds. What a way to welcome someone then by showing them just a little bit of magic that’s always happening around

Also probably because your photokinetic powers aren’t your strongest

Don’t think I forgot

@astxrism

especially new girls Aurora will have to keep checking on. “

I hope rora and Freya kiss

@CerealKiller

toujours la critique,”

She’s just jealous fr

@CerealKiller

Mais peut-être que ton goût est juste moins sophistiqué que le mien”

So true

@CerealKiller

Don’t give him that much credit” she huffed and continued walking.

HAHAHAHAHA
Y’all know what would be fun??

@CerealKiller

she chose to keep her thoughts to herself for now,

NO
ASK
WHAT ARE THE THREE OTHER DOORS

@novella

Nore

He chooses the randomest nicknames
It’s Lenny!!

@novella

Ren and I, no-one can capture an audience quite like us,”

Renvin better than jesslin

@novella

not wanting to talk too in detail about his friend’s business.

Wise

@astxrism

take Lysander, Lyra’s brother and Miles as examples.

Wait how did Lysander die
Lemme see if I can find it in Lyras next post

@astxrism

Simply just met her, don’t mistaken this for Hayes knowing Lyra well, because he doesn’t.

Is this sus??

@astxrism

Or with bloody hands in an empty, dark hallway when he thought no one would find him… Except for that one time when Renlin did

HAYES WHAT THE FRICKKKK
WHY WERE YOU BLEEDING
WAS IT EVEN YOUR BLOOD

@astxrism

moving their instruments to the side before leaving.

Ooh they were in first period

@Jass

she had to deal with a guy who completely ghosted her out of nothing, while they had just taken a bit step together.

SORRYYYYYY

@Jass

harp

Ofc

@Jass

Lucky enough, after a few seconds, she was able to focus again and play like nothing had happened.

Love this

@Jass

There was a darkness and heaviness she felt from him now, no, this was not the same guy as who her brother was friends with.

@Jass

Lyra knew she was not the person who was supposed to carry it with her. “He would have wanted you to have this.” She said, her voice soft but resolute.

Oh?
Inch resting
I wonder if the necklace is a secret thing

@cordyx

Like a movie, the color grading of the elegant warmness of the ballroom would slowly turn into a cold and desaturated scene.

Ok bar

@cordyx

looking at the palm of his hand, the cuff of his sleeve, and the watch he wore gave him confirmation of a memory he was most afraid of. In a stasis, he recognized the uniform he wore as his eyes widen, refusing to look up until his courage soared in to come upon and see… an alarm clock ringing at 7:15.

No now I’m lost
Ok yes
Dream
Got it

@cordyx

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

This made me laugh

@cordyx

Just wanted to know if you’re using college life as an opp. to live a ho life. That’s it, bye~~”

@cordyx

a pretty red as he realized the heat coming from his ears. “Damn. I mean! I-I am like soooo… sorry! I just- um, like the view here is just so nice and then I wasn’t looking and then this- Oh look at that papers on the floor! Haha! I-I’m just gonna pick this up, j-just move on and um…”

He’s such a silly twink

@idiot.exe

No rushh

And then I’ll catch up from here
