"I got a .......... wand with that's twelve and three quarters inches long, and a dragon heartstring core " Thalia responded.

Alistair leapt, snatched Marisol’s arm and yanked her to him. “You are so full of surprises,” he said to her. He turned his gaze to me. “Step away from the

“You don’t understand Alyxander… Shes incapable of handling a task this big. If you really want to send her to her death….well then, what type of Watchdog are you. Surely not the kind i’ve known.” There was a woman standing tucked in the corner with a man. They looked to be in an attack.

"Thanks-" I say before Kayla comes walking up to us. She looks at the staff but doesn’t say anything. She’s a bit intimidating with her fierce eyes that pierce straight through me. She has a curious silver pin on her cloak, but I don’t dare ask what it is.

"Daring," Rosebella stood in the doorway, watching him with nervous eyes. "What are you doing?"

He regarded her curiously before casting his eyes to his door and nodding his head. “I was going to do some paperwork.”

Gwaine swallowed, leaned in and gently placed his hands on Merlin's cheeks, softly running his thumbs across sharp cheekbones. "Merlin, please say you want this," he breathed as he brought his lips close to Merlin's and then

Laurance frowned, he seemed to be doing quite a bit of that today, "What's that supposed to mean?"

After walking around idly, getting a drink, and clearing my mind, I headed for the stairs. My study area was in the basement where it was private and quiet.
