Vesper blinked. "I'm fine." He replied. He realized that they needed a cover in case this girl had been listening for too long. "We were just talking about a game we're playing, and he's totally beating me." A flashy, chagrined smile flickered over his face. "I need to take out some competition, and, well…we were picking a player to take out, make it easier on both of us, though I'm not sure I should do him any favors." His eyes snaked to Aquila. Play along! He begged. This needed to work, in case she had heard them.
Alana recoiled in fear the second Aquilla's eye landed on her. Were they going to hurt her? She couldn't tell if the boy she asked was lying or not, for all she knew they could be aliens and she wouldn't even know. "I… please don't hurt me…" she managed to gasp out through all her fear. Even if they hadn't been lying, it was still worth a shot. The worst thing that could happen would be death, right? Now that she thought about it, she would miss her parents, and they would be devastated to hear of such acts. She made up her mind to run away as soon as the opportune moment presented itself.
(no one knows that Vesper and Aquila are the bad guys, btw. She's really kinda overreacting. No offense meant)
(Yeah I know. Also I forgot that they were the bad guys lol she doesn't know anyone so that's how it is she's questioning everyone's actions, unsure of how nice they are, ect. She thinks that like Aquilla is popular or something and she doesn't want to get embarrassed, and like death would be like worst-case scenario aka least-likely)
(lol ohhhhh okay xD alright. I just wanted to make sure)
Vesper frowned slightly. "We aren't going to hurt you. It's just a game. Really." He said, putting his hands in his pockets. "I swear. It's just a competitive game." He looked at her.
(Yeah that's fine)
Alana gave a sigh of relief. "Well whatever game it happens to be… I don't want to be a part of it. It seems dangerous, what with targets and everything…" she replied. "I-I'm sorry, I don't really know anyone… I'm overreacting… oh boy now I'm rambling I've never done this before… I better leave before I annoy you two…" her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. Taking a deep breath, she took a moment to compose herself. "Are you sure you're alright?"
Vesper nodded. "Yeah. It's online." He replied. He gave another smile. "I'm fine." He reassured, looking at her calmly.
(Erm… I'm not sure, cause I already sort of had a story going for Cassie, but… I guess?)
(Long lost sibling or it could be her aunt. I could be Thorne's younger sister)
(I think that'd be cool. Or a cousin, maybe?)
(I haven't read the books in a while, but hey, what're y'all doing?)
(Oh hi, sorry, this is actually closed! So sorry!)
(No problem! I'll just stalk then!)
(Okie, I think there's a character sheet on the first page.)
(Okay then i will have to build her in my characters soon anyway)

(Cool. I’m finally here again so yay!)
“Sooo. What’s something normal you do that your family thinks is weird, if you have something. Mine is that I absolutely hate tomatoes. My parents are obsessed. They think I’m crazy for disliking them.” She looked over at Cassie.
"Oh good," Alana replied. "Anyways, now that that's out of the way, wanna be friends?" she asked brightly, a hopeful smile on her face.
Cassie tilted her head thoughtfully. "I don't think I have one. My whole family pretty much has the same thought process. Well, not my parents, but - you get the idea. We all sort of like the same things."
(Hey @Icefire sorry I didn't see your reply earlier. I have mine wedged between Ellie's and Emmy's replies lol)
