the0racle couldn't stop the train of memories. Her eyes were peeled onto the lake's surface, unable to pry away or even shift away to something else...

Nostalgic

A certain scent clogged the air, thick and heavy, lavender and cinnamon. Such an odd combination, but it brought her home again. She had never been one for conventional uses, and often had used scents that just came to mind. the0racle had always been a little bit of a 'spur of the moment' kind of individual.

She sighed pleasantly, feeling tendrils of smoke caressing her cheeks, burning the hairs in her nose. It was perfect. It was home. It could bring her right back to the good ol' days in the Circle before she had been sent away to better hone her skills. But, for now it was good...

And then her eyes snapped open, and she pulled herself back from the lake's edge. Enough of memories, she didn't want to remember, she didn't want to deal with this right now. She was done.

[8: Confusion]

His mouth still tasted of mushroom as he settled beside the lake, grateful for a quiet place to sit and gather his thoughts. Except, as he leaned in closer to the water, voices caught his attention -- and then his reflection tossed back at him -- but it was wrong --

__________

He is too young to fully understand the somber faces around him, the poking and prodding of curious relatives. He is too quiet to step forward and ask them to leave him alone. He is too stubborn, at six years old, to run and hide as he has every year up to this point.

It will be many years before he fully understands what the word heir means, but it won't take him long to determine he doesn't deserve the title.

[9: Repeat]

The picture blurs out and another takes its place -- SpringTooth recoiling as the face shifts again, to that of his father --

________________________

"No."

It is Father's favorite word. Harrow understood what it meant before he could speak. It was the first word Harrow learned, and the first word he said.

"No."

As he grows older, it begins to wear away at him. It starts to sting. The sound of it makes him wince, flinch, even when it's directed at someone else.

"No."

Sometimes, he wonders if Father knows how to say anything else. Sometimes, he wonders how the wedding went, what the man replied when he was asked 'do you..?'

"No."

Harrow no longer even tries for any other answer. He no longer asks questions unless there is no other alternative. And sometimes his mouth moves, forming the word as Father speaks it.

"No."

[20: Wishes]

He whispered the word as that vision faded away, blinking into focus, a shudder traveling down his spine. At this moment, he wanted nothing so much as a nice, pretty face --

________________________

She is a pretty girl, but that isn't what draws him to her -- or not all that draws him to her. The golden fall of her hair, usually tugged up into elaborate braids against the back of her head, and the sparkle of her pale eyes are enticing, certainly, but they aren't enough on their own.

Harrow is drawn to her instead because of the way she speaks: sharp and short and decisive, even at twelve years old, because she knows what she wants and is willing to take action to do it. He stutters, falling over the words, and she looks down her nose and cuts him off, telling him sharply what to do.

And it's funny, but he's not sure what he'd wish for more: the ability to speak like her or simply to have a friend who could do it for him.

[1/3]

Theme
14. Happiness


In her dream she was a child now, maybe only 5 or 6 years old. She could hear her mother's voice singing sorrowful lullabys about men lost at sea. Her voice was so soothing, somber...she sang those melodies to her every night to help her sleep. She was in her sea bed surrounded by seaweeds and mosses woven delicately into quilts and pillows and decorated with shells and starfish and all matter of life that cling to and lived on the living linens. As her eyes closed peacefully she could feel her mothers warm embrace tucking her in to her underwater slumber place. The safety of her parents close by to protect her and banish all fears from her mind helped her as she drifted blissfully to into a deep sleep.

Theme
1. Kindness


"But Pappa!!" She pleaded clinging to the sea battered captains coat on her fathers large, barrel-like frame, "You said...now, you said I could have anything I wanted for my birthday!"
"Yeeass?" He replied, with a raised brow and a coy grin on his face making her unsure if he was humoring her or not.

"Well Pappa, the only thing I wanted...you know the only I ever wanted is to come with you to work!" She was laying it on thick now, "I want to haunt ships Pappa you told me one day when I'm old enough I can come with you!" She slung both arms around his neck and slid playfully into his lap, partly so he could see how committed she was but mostly to physically prevent him from trying to leave without her.

"Oh alright then my child." He said with a chuckle. "Whatever you heart desires, you deserve." He cradled her into his arms briefly before slinging her tiny frame onto his shoulders, finishing his preparations for the day as they embarked on their first daddy-daughter trip.

[11.Grey]

The house was grey.

A lot of the houses she had lived in had been grey. She wondered if perhaps she simply remembered them that way, as if her mind just refused to take in all the details of the homes they'd lived in. Why bother really? They would just be leaving again, no point noticing color, or the state of the flower beds, or if there was a big backyard with a pool or a swing set.

In the beginning she had noticed. Their original home had been large and made of brick. The second had been a pale green, the third had been brown..or maybe orange? The fourth...

It didn't matter, they would only be temporary.

Grey. Like the house.

Like every house.

Empty


It felt...wrong, somehow. Lutz wasn't one to mope or complain, but he couldn't deny the fact that he felt a pang in his chest whenever he heard the other students talking about their families. Outwardly, he made sure that it never showed that their talks bothered him, but Jack, did they ever. He couldn't remember anything about his family, not if he had any siblings, or if he was the child of a single parent or a couple, or...anything.

He later came to realize that the feeling in his chest was emptiness.

[3/3]

Theme
12. Hiding


I don't care if he wont see me, I'm staying! She thought, in her typical defiant, ambivalent fashion as she lurked in the shadows outside her ex's house. If he wants to move on fine, go ahead and try. But I'm not. I just can't.

If she could see he had truly moved on maybe things would be different now. If she could spot him with another ghoul or something to snap her out this obsession she would have liked nothing more than to be able to forget all about him. But there he was, she could see through his window though she was buried in among the shadows partly ghosted that he was quietly laying on his bed reading a book. How could she really know that there weren't feelings still there? Just because you say it over doesn't mean you really mean it...does it?

No, there's a hundred reasons you might say that to someone you really love. Just to make them mad but never truly meaning it. She would wait outside his window for as long as it took to find out her answer though something deep down inside told her it would end in what she feared most. Heartbreak and finality.

.......

As if awaking from a long night of dreams, Envy lifted her head from the water as the ripples of the past diminished into crystal clarity. Shaking her head slightly she lifted herself up from the waters edge and traveled wearily down the road, filled with a strange sense of satisfaction and well being now that these fragmented memories came with her.

[2/3] - Normalcy

Even though Dreamwatcher didn't want to, the voices beckoned her to touch the lake again. They didn't seem through with her just yet. With a trembling hand, she carefully place her fingers into the lake once more.

"Your starting to make this a habit you know? Not that I mind..." she knew that voice. And she knew what he meant as the vision became more clear in the water. She was resting on his bed with him, curled up in his arms until he fell asleep. She didn't sleep, but ti didn't mean she didn't enjoy watch Spinar sleep before she finally slipped out of his room each even.

This was routine for her, being with him. He brought her comfort, and she just enjoyed seeing him everyday.

DreamWatcher smiles as she place her other hand on her chest. Was he here too? Would she cross paths with him, or anyone else she knew for that matter?

[3/3] - Rewarding

As the vision came into focus, DreamWatchers lips curled up into a smile as she watch.

"So...if I sign this contract...does it mean I can do this more often?" she saw the kiss stolen. Even at that moment, she felt her flutter within her heart as the kiss was deepen. His arms wrapping around her as he broke it off "All the time, the reward will be great for us both. All you have to do is sign..." he grins at her, a long claw running along her bottom lip.

She didn't have to be told twice, signing her name on the contract..

Pulling her hand from the water altogether, she was surprised when the treasure trove came into focus. Standing she walks over and kneels down in front of the chest.

Placing her hand on it, she pushed it open just as she felt the rush go through her body once again. She didn't have to look up this time, she knew she leveled again. Reaching into the chest, she pulls out the item just as she stood.

Turning away, she keeps a good grip on her loot as she continues on within the Wood, and away from the lake.

[6. Endings]

It had started on a whim.

An excited, spontaneous whim.

It had ended with a kiss. Not the first, but memorable. All soft lips and hesitation. Nerves tying stomachs in knots and tingling through fingertips. A wonderful day, flawless, perfect. An equally wonderful night, exciting, even awkward.

Coming back had been hard. She hadn't wanted that first date to end.

Beginnings, born from endings.
