Hmmm. "Surprise me. Just don't make it something too silly."

They giggled and picked the one ringed with skulls, grinning and putting their arm around her waist to pull her into the frame as the camera flashed.

2015-08-09 08:24:35

●

Of course they would. Ivory smiled slightly, and the camera flashed. Ah. Bright. She blinked away the blindness once it was done.

2015-08-09 08:26:39

🌀

"Now, you two go." They got out and shoved Zane in instead, pulling the curtain closed.

2015-08-09 08:43:25

●

Alright then. She waited until he seemed a bit more settled into the booth. "Ready?" She asked, reaching for the button to take the picture.

2015-08-09 08:45:50

🌀

He blinked in surprise and looked over at her, huddled over in the small booth. "Um, yes." He wasn't entirely sure what was going on. He also wasn't sure whether they would even show up on camera, what with being vampires and all. Just before she pressed the button, Ren reached in and shoved Zane's shoulder, saying "Don't forget to smile!" Of course, they shoved 'harder than they intended', air quotes implied, and, not expecting it, he fell sideways, and onto Ivory. And onto her lips.

●

In shock, Ivory's hand slipped on the button, the photo taking. Shit! Their lips smashed together for a second, just for a small second, before she lightly pushed him off by her shoulders. To her, that small second lasted forever. The feel of his lips. The touch of his skin. She wanted to enjoy those lips just one more time.

Oh.

/Oh no./

Lance was right. She had feelings for this man, and she had them /hard./

Quickly, she pushed her thoughts away and looked up at Zane. "S-sorry." She stuttered out. Control yourself, Ivory. It was just an accident. /Just/ an accident.

🌀

If it were physically possible, he'd be flaming red right now. It was bad enough that he'd kissed Cale in front of her and then her while they were both under some other influence, but now....? Actually, it wasn't bad. Not at all. What? He didn't get it. This was a weird feeling. Was this why Cale wanted Zane to stay away from her? But...he didn't know if it was a /bad/ feeling. His hand was over his mouth, and he was too surprised to even stutter out a protest and apology.

2015-08-09 09:14:09

●

Okay. So they both definitely needed to space. Right. She got that. Slowly, she slipped out of the photo booth. Ahem. Well. Today certainly was an /interesting/ one.

2015-08-09 09:18:05

🌀

Ren was trying their very hardest not to break into a fit of giggles, but the best they could do was grin broadly. "Did the picture turn out nice~?"

2015-08-09 09:23:49

●

She almost forgot Ren existed for a second. "Hmm?" She looked at them. "Oh." She saw it printed out in the holder for it. She picked it up. Of course it took on /that/ moment. "See for yourself." She handed them the picture.

2015-08-09 09:28:30

🌀

They couldn't do it anymore. At the sight of it, they burst out laughing and hugged her. "Congratulations!!"

2015-08-09 09:32:24

🌀

Cale hadn't been told about the kiss. And he hadn't slept for a while, so he hadn't seen the memory. What he /did/ know was that when Zane had gone out for Ivory's birthday, at one point he'd gotten a system overload that had as of yet gone unexplained, along with his perpetually confused expression since returning. He planned on asking just as soon as Zane could speak comprehensibly again.

Kinsley had been slightly dreading this day, but he knew it had to come eventually, lest Cale find out by accident and make things all the worse. As a preventative measure he'd asked Lance to come with and restrain Cale if it came to that, maybe answer some questions he didn't know how to. Hopefully there would be few of those.

2015-08-09 22:28:58

●

Of course, Lance agreed to tag along. Why wouldn't he? This more than likely required his attention if anything. Besides, he decided to give Ivory her space to think. Oh yes. He knew. She didn't have to tell him, or be in a bond with her to know. He knew her well enough. That sparkle in her eyes that he hadn't seen since she was sixteen had returned. That sparkle that only comes around when shes is falling for someone.

2015-08-09 22:34:35

🌀

When they arrived, Kinsley hesitantly knocked, half hoping Zane would answer and report Cale's absence. Unfortunately for his nerves, Cale /did/ answer. Without saying anything, he gave Kinsley a look over, then turned his attention to Lance, jerking his thumb over at the other. "Who's this guy? No more room here if you're making a drop-off."

2015-08-09 22:39:06

●

"Well from the information I've gathered. That /guy/ is /your/ angel." Welcome to the club of misfits, kid. Lance will be your guide if you don't punch him first.

2015-08-09 22:41:44

🌀

"My -- what the fuck? That isn't even funny, it's so unrealistic." "My existence and the memories we share prove that it's more realistic than you think, and if you need further prove, just ask Madison, we've met. Though his information might not be as trustworthy, being as he could well lie just to make things worse." "Shut up already, I'm thinking." Cale closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. What the fuck. And he hadn't even noticed? That didn't make sense. Lance had said his angel /died/, so who is this really?

2015-08-09 22:47:50

●

Lance raised both his eyebrows and started to crack his knuckles. A bad habit for him, really. His smile was ever-present. "Do you want me to explain out here and have someone try to call the hospital because they think we're crazy, or are we going to be invited inside? Besides, Ivory isn't here. Maybe I can finally kick Madison's ass."

2015-08-09 22:50:39

🌀

"You're welcome to try, but I'm pretty sure Zane would stop you. Shit, this is crazy. Fine, come in or whatever." He stepped back from the door and Kinsley moved inside, holding out a hand with a smile. "I'm Kinsley, by the way." Cale narrowed his eyes at him but shook. "I'll believe it when I see it." "....what?"

2015-08-09 22:53:24

●

Lance stepped inside. "I'd sure as hell would like to see him try." He waited till Kinsley was inside. "So, shall I start from the beginning, or can I skip the boring nonsense or can I give you the only information that's necessary for you to get this?"

2015-08-09 22:58:29

🌀

"God, start from the beginning please. This is all nonsense bullshit as far as I'm concerned."

2015-08-09 22:59:48

"Hey, you're the one who decided to befriend a two thousand year old angel." He put his hands up. "Anyways, your angel did die, but after some time dead angels get replaced by different ones if you're lucky. It may take months, or in your case, decades, but it happens sometimes. For you, that was Kinsley. Kinsley decided to take over a few times and befriend someone /you/ decided to kill, and lo and behold, you got yourself an angel who became human. Well...as close to human as I can put it."

2015-08-09 23:03:11

🌀

"What. That goth girl?" "Her name is Rayne, you're being stereotypical, and yes. It was an unfortunate coincidence." "So the replacement fucked up and everything went to shit." ".....I....yes. Yes, I did." Kinsley sighed.

2015-08-09 23:07:45

●

"Not exactly, 'fucked up'. Being out isn't all that bad, you know. Besides, I think things turned out quite well. Would you rather he stayed inside and keep possessing you?"

2015-08-09 23:09:49

🌀

"I would've rather he asked me for permission through you."
