1. Pick a character of yours.
2. Pick a character of mine you want something shippy with and put that in the subject line.
3. Pick a prompt of whatever fashion and put it in the comment box.
4. Hit submit. I will start a shippy thread for said pairing.
5. Profit.

I mostly lean towards M/F and F/F, and all my OCs are bi. My muselist hasn't been updated in over a year, but it's mostly accurate! If you have any questions, hit me up on plurk or discord. Wheee.

Then I look forward to learning from your expertise.

[Freya is always good at deferring to an expert when she needs to. And there's still so much of the world that she hasn't seen. Maybe a break from it all will give her what she needs to start fresh.]

[stefanged]

[ So the student has surpassed the master, or something to that extent? ]

And I look forward to teaching you.

[ Stefan's smile only grows wider as he steers the car off the highway and towards signs for a small seaside town. Even from the side of the road, the crystalline seas are visible - and the reflection of the sun's rays makes the air seem far warmer than it usually is, this time of year. Add white sandy beaches, as far as the horizon can see, and rows of freshly-painted beach houses - oh, and a pier that seems to stretch on as far as the sky itself, and he might as well have driven them into Paradise. ]

But first, we should probably settle in and check the area out.

[ By which he means: the beach house he may have rented out for them. Open, airy floor plan; a porch that seems to stretch onto the sandy beaches themselves; and even a fully-stocked fridge. Stefan parks the car and climbs out, rushing to grab the luggage.

The old, vampire-y Stefan wouldn't have hesitated to grab them all in one swoop. He still has that sense of pride, but since he lacks his strength? He might've settled for placing anti-gravity spells on all their luggage. If they seem to float in his hands, that was 110% on purpose. ]

[deathlessness]

[While Freya appreciates the gesture, she doesn't think he has to carry all of that on his own.]

Do you need a hand?

[She's a big girl, she can carry her own luggage.]

[stefanged]

I'm good. [ He means it too, waving a couple of fingers and letting those suitcases fly right inside - ] Maybe you could help me with dinner later?

Or um... [ Those suitcases don't actually seem to be flying to their room... ] directing the luggage to where it needs to go....

[deathlessness]

[She laughs a bit as the suitcases go on their wily, whirlwind adventure but a quick wave of her hand, the suitcases disappear from view and reappear in the portion of the living room that she can see through one of the windows. It's possible that they bump into a few things as they do, but there's no major harm done.]

There. That's better.

[stefanged]

[ Stefan raises his eyebrows at her skill, almost wanting to let out a low, slow whistle. ]

Damn. [ He shakes his head fondly, half-wondering just where he'd went wrong, and half-wondering how she makes this magic thing look so effortless. ] You're going to have to show me that trick again sometime.

[deathlessness]

Don't worry, you'll get it eventually.

[She wanders her way to his side, tucking her arm in his to pull him close.]

It takes practice, as all things worth doing do.

[stefanged]

I know. [ Yet he can't help feeling slightly frustrated, even as he allows himself to be pulled in. ] Just like Rome wasn't built in a day...

[deathlessness]

Exactly.

[She offers him a small smile in return.]

You'll get it. But it's a skill, just like cooking. I'm sure you weren't whipping out gourmet meals on your first try.

[stefanged]

Well, no... [ she's got him there, and Stefan can't quite help the laugh that escapes his lips. ] Though I'm sure everyone'd like to think otherwise.

So do you wanna settle in first, or uh, do you need a little help?

[ and not in the supernatural, "let him float her luggage into the room" sense. ]

[deathlessness]

[She raises her eyebrows a bit at that "need a little help" remark, but the expression is decidedly flirty.]

What kind of assistance are you offering to provide?
