Shadow Takers discussion

A dead silent place where humans are absolutly not allowed in. This is where they put the frozen, stone bodies of those who have been killed in the past by the Supernaturals and Shadow Takers dwelling in this garden. Some of the statues are recognizable, others, aren't. This garden is fairly close to the castle, although it's not a popular place to be in.

Daney started to walk around looking at the different statues among her. She could feel death creep up all around her. But she knew death well so whatever she had thought of it was surely long gone. She was rather thinking of other things. More livier things you actucally wouldn't think of in a place like this. She rather staid where there were places of death and it was rare for her to come here but she liked this kind of place.

Aaron sighed in content as he entered what he liked to call the garden of the dead. It was a place he liked to go to often and walk alongside the stone clad dead bodies of those who used to live in the castle. Being a place humans were prohibited and supernaturals rarely entered it was always...dead silent. It was also a quite nice place to come to be alone with out really being alone.

Daney smiled small as she sang a quiet melody. She usully never sang but now she felt like so or maybe because she saw another enter. It was maybe a place for her to come only when she needed to relax or find herself able to think. She did glanceup to see a guy enter with what seemed like white hair with maybe grey tip on the ends of his hair. Daney couldn't help but feel bad as she saw his left eye banadged. Just the feeling of forgiveness hit her and made her want to sa something but didn't do otherwise. So sh just gave him a smile and waved in a kind gesture.

Aaron immidiately notice a second person in the garden and he noted she looked quite familiar. Prehaps he'd seen her around the castle or here in the stone garden before. When he saw her hand raise in greeting he lifted his own a small bit in greeting before letting it drop to his side, muttering a quiet hello to her.

Daney shook off the melody as she glanced up to look at the other supernatural. Somehow she thout something more of him and thought it would be nice to go over to him and talk. Well she wasn't one for talk and all but surely if she tried it would help. So she did so exactly and probably thought he would think something of her. It was once she did get over to him she grinned."You look quite nice. I mean is well that your cool and of the sort."Daney sighed in frustration as she couldn't speak the words she wanted to as she blushed.

Aaron looked at the girl a snall smirk playing on his lips as she struggled to word her sentances right. "Hello.." He murmured as he looked her over. Sure he knew he didnt swing that way but it didnt kill to look. She was fairly nice looking but seemed the quite type. He himself prefered someone who would fight - though its caused trouble in the past for gim. Looking back up into her eyes, Aaron spoke again. "If i look nice then im going to have to work on that but using the word 'cool' i'll have to admit is a bit if an understatement." He spoke in a low voice but none the less his arrogance showed through easily

Daney gazed at him with kind eyes and even grinned. She felt slightly better as she did sigh and found herself able to control what she said or thought. Maybe it was just being around this guy that she felt not at ease. But of something different."Hey."She said quietly not sure of what else to say. Just maybe she shouldn't have talked to him if he was going to be this silent."I didn't mean cool. It came out the wrong way. I just never meant to talk about it like that. You don't look quite nice maybe about right now. Are you always that caring to quite arrogant in a way?"She asd with a grin.

Pursing his lips as he thought of hiw to answer, Aaron simply shrugged his shoulders a small gleam in the uncovered eyes. "I prefer to call it...confidence as opposed to 'arrogence'" the tone of his voice implied a sense of 'oppose me and lose a finger...or five' "I mean...arrogence is just such a harsh word, ya know?"

Just by how he spoke and look she even gave a some what puzzled expression. Daney just simply listen and sighed softly."Fine let's just call it confidence."She replied."I guess you can call it that.''

He nodded and a more real grin shown through his usual faccade. "So what's your name hm? And what brings you here?" He began walking, looking at her through the corner of his eye

She gazed a him again with a puzzled expreison still but shook it off."I'm Daney. And you are?"She asked."I guess because it helps me so I can relax and think straight. I uess the same goes for you.''

"Aaron." He nodded in responce to her assumption. "teah its much more quiet the the castle. There are always people running here and there and it gets confusing fir me.

"Nice to meet you Aaron."She said kindly."I can understad where your coming from with this. It does get me like that feeling to.''

Aaron nodded but knew she didn't know how bad it was for him specifically. He had a blind spot - everything to his right, and though being the second in command to shadow takers, he still did get mocked a little by the other supernaturals. "I guess i could say the same to meeting you, but it would probably only be half true."

She glanced at him for what seemed like more then several seconds omintues. Maybe because of how she was trying to read out his feelings and see whatwas good of him and then what was bad. But she couldn't figure that out at all. Daney just listen and nodded to it."Well you might be right about that.''

Shrugging he nodded once again. He would let her decifer what he said however she wanted to... for now at least. He just needed to see how useful she may be to him. "So when did you come to the castle...Daney?"

It was that she was to lost in her thoughts that she didn't hear him taking. She was focused on what heaid and thought of it out. Wanting t know more of it but wasn't sure of how to come of it."I came around when I was twenty."

he nodded and paused in thought. "I have been around here...for about 500 years give or take 50." He had never kept count of time. Never really worried about it ever.

She glanced at him and gaped a little."Um wow that's a lot of years. So how old are you? I mean you look around twenty or maybe twenty three."She gazed him up and down.

Aaron shrugged letting a smile slip onto his face. "I stopped keeping track after i fell. It's been awhile though. But there are still alot who are older then me."

Daney gave a nod smilingsmall but felt still in shock."I can see why you stopped it. Well you don't seem that old compared to them.''

"Thats because..." He stopped a moment before pesking again. "Im young compaired to alot i had had run ins with before i can here. There are alot who fell before the supernaturals took over.."

"Like I said I can see that. But at times its better to fele younger then older with the tragic accidents or whatever happen in their life. Truly it just seems that at best."Daney said sincerely.

"i think i've had a fair amout of misfortune ever compared to the older." He motioned towards his right eye as ge spoke. "But i suppose what your saying is true in most cases with us."

Daney looked at his eye nd sighed as she raked her hand through her hair. She swallowed back tears that would come at any second. She was strong enough to do this but that weakness of wanting to help and of sympathy was just to strong."I can see why Aaron. I truly feel bad since I have something similar."She showed him the mark on the back of her neck."It's diffierent since itwas used on witches and would hurt me if I did anything against the law of witches and wrlocks. It could almost kill you at times."She shivered at the thought of it."But yeah it is mostly like that at times.''

He nodded his head, as if to seem like he cared more then he actually did. "Life must have been rough for you so far yeah?" Raising an eyebrow, he looked over at Daney before stopping infront of a statue. A familliar statue, that caused him to smile to himself as his mind went back a few years.

Daney gave a some what thankful smile of him caring or at least trying to."Rough isn't the half of it. I sometimes hate my own magic. The nightmares never go away of it. I'm almost always restless of it." She glanced at te statue curiously."I always wondered who this statue is but I never figured out who it was.''

"Her name was.....Marianna, if i can remember it correctly." A soft chuckle left his lips. "She thought we wouldnt be able to break her, and was quite stubbern to the very end. She was very lively as well."

"It sounds like a lovely name."She smiled small at the thought of her name and the description that he gave about her."Was a human or another supernatural?"She asked curiously. But hoped since she asked it wasn't quite a stupid answer at all.

"She was human." Quite fiesty as well. She had no intrests in listening to us supernaturals and was very difiant." He pursed his lips looking over the statue. "I got tired of her quickly, so i got rid of her. It was quite easy to do and she turned out to be quite fragil."

"I kind of figured as much. It's always the humans that are like that. Was she your servant before she was gone?"she asked feeling somehow intrigued by this conversation now."Maybe he was just hidin her being fragil to show how stubborn she can be.''

He nodded a fond smile appearing on his lips. "Yes that was what i had guessed as well nut it wasnt just mentaly wise. Even phisically she was quite frail. She was also bery pale. She may have been sick or something but i never really cared to remember." He shrugged, before cintinueing to walk.

She saw the smile on his lips nd even let her lips curl up into a grin."Wow must have been really some crazy human. I know humans are like that but not that horrible."Sh shrugged at the thought of it."You could almost say she didn't eat or it was something else.''

"Could be." After finding a place to sit he stopped walking at sat down. "I dont necessarily care though... And yourself? Is there anyone here that you know?" His vouce held a hint of curiosity, but just barely and it was very hard to detect in his voice.

((Sorry if its a short posts so far im on my phone also, sorry if im roleplaying him strangly i dont often roleplay males luke him but i wanted to try it.))

((It's fine. Anyways sorry for the late reply))

She nodded and stuffed her hands in her pcokets and sighed."I wouldn't probably either. But no there isn't one that I really know nore even care for at all."She said.

He nodded turning his head up to the sky. "Aside from the girl i dont no anyone... I think. And seeing as i killed her.... I really could care less about anyone here... Or anyone alive for that matter..."

"Did you killher because of her attitude and treating you personally?"She asked nervously feeling as maybe she should shut up and not speak of it."I probably shouldn't ask and you can tell me no if you don't want to. But how did you get the banage on your left eye? Did you get scar or got blind from it?"

"I got bored of her." The way he spoke was closing that conversation and in reply to her next question, he began to unwind the bandage. "It happened...when i fell." After the bandage was off he turned to look at her. One eye was bright and obviously very much working while the other seemed dull

She nodded simply and glanced down at her hands as sh sighed. Daney glanced up agai to see him unwrap his banadge so she could see the difference between both of his eyes."Oh I'm sorry. Did you hurt yourself badly or didsomeone use magic?"She said quietly and wanted to look closer but felt that would be rude.

Not replying and simply just rewrapping the bandage, he leaned forward, arms resting against his knees. He was begining to feel like he was opening up to much to this girl so he had decided he was just going to be silent

"It's fine if your quiet. I can understand it. No matter."Daney simply said and glanced down at her tatto she had on her wrist tracing the outline pattern of it.

He nodded, silent for another few minutes before standing up. "It is getting quite chilly out. I think...i will move back into the castle now. You can...accompany me, if you would like...i guess..." With that, he started walking back towards the front of the garden, now completely ignoring the statues that surrounded them.

She glanced up at him and just nodded as she came along with him."So, Aaron are you alwaysthe quiet type or do you speak when only spoke to? Because it seems to me you don't really care of it but you want company. But then again you don't care about it. You make me curious."She said with a slight grin as she looked up at his face whenshe was by his side again. Her face became a puzzled expression almost like she thought he was a statue that didn't show any human emotions.

Aaron thought over the question, opened his mouth to answer then closed it again. "Hm..I talk when i feel it wont be a waste of my breath, or of my time." Looking at her from the corner of his eye, thankful she was walking on his left side and not his right.

She laughed softly and grinned darkly. Daney raked her hand through her hair."That's a good idea but I think its not that bad. You just don't enjoy companionship it seems like. It wouldn't be a waste you just don't want compaionship or any kind of friendship. I would defintely show it to you but you probably wouldn't like it."She teased.
