Callan Rolled His Eyes Back At Lyra.

Callan rolled his eyes back at Lyra.

"Okay, well, I hate that." Callan said when his cousin said she was familiar with the Hewn City.

But not the point.

"Seriously though, be careful. Don't trust anyone or anything in the Hewn City and keep yourself out of trouble. When you get home we'll go to Rita's for a drink."

@flashbacksech0es sent ❛  be careful.  ❜ (for Lyra from Callan)

Lyra looked at her cousin, barely able to refrain from rolling her eyes. He was as bad as Nyx. Occasionally, worse. Because Nyx could be distracted. All it took was her inviting Sienna to Velaris and suddenly her brother was making googly eyes at the redhead. Callan, she had found, was not so easily distracted.

Maybe if she told him what Ava was up to? Callan's own sister a frequent visitor to the war camps. Or she could imply Cassie was in some sort of distress... The seer being the youngest of the cousins and therefor the most overly protected.

Anything to get his attention off her and her destination.

"You act like this is my first visit to Hewn City... Callan, I'm fine. Really. I'm more familiar with the place than you would think."

“   you’re  so  cute  when  you  smile  like  that .   ” Violet @ Edmund! @strxngertogether

Edmund looked to his fiancée of about an hour. He'd never been so nervous in his entire life, so the grin had not left his face since Violet had accepted his proposal.

Taking her hand, Edmund kissed her knuckles.

"Only for you, my darling."

Chuckling Calvin shook his head.

"Fine. We're going to one of my favorite places, somewhere I haven't shared with many people. There, that's your hint." Doc knew the trail well, so Calvin hardly had to turn the quarter horse onto the path up the the ridge that had the best view of the property.

"Keep up, Dallas."

“  where are you taking me?  ” ( Calvin, if you're cool with that ) @devilsdaughtcr

Calvin glanced back at Scarlett and smiled, he was pretty damn proud of himself for getting her this far, and on horseback no less.

"If I told you that it wouldn't be a surprise now would it?" Calvin said with a smirk.

"It's not far now, just follow me."

"I cannot imagine you ever being that way, you're a good man, and I have missed you since you went away to America." Sybbie blew out a puff of smoke and turned back to Barrow.

"I think if she was still alive, my mama would count herself lucky to be your friend... and I hope you have found happiness in America, even though it's so far away."

"I don't understand, why would anyone be cruel to you?" Sybbie said, Barrow had always been nothing but good to her, she found Mr. Barrow to be the best kind of person. Kind and gentle, he'd played with Sybbie and her cousins as children and now that Sybbie was grown she still found him to be a good person.

"I know I'm not her, but for what it's worth. You've always been a good friend to me."

Ah, so that was why he was here, Kate couldn't fault him. He wasn't the first suitor to try to get to Edwina through Kate.

"She is well. Have you been introduced?" Unless Mary or Lady Danbury had made the introductions quickly while Kate momentarily distracted, she knew they had not.

"Quite well I should think, though I will admit whirlwind is a very apt description for the season." Kate said, trying to keep her eyes on the man before her and not on her sister across the room just over his shoulder.

"How are you finding the season, My Lord?"

So I was gonna come back and write but it's way too hot. I'm just gonna go to bed.
