miss–herondale:

               _{It was her dad who’d asked
               her to check into the situation.
               Werewolves and vampires,
               Luce. Just check the tensions.
               Test the waters. Whatever.}

                    _{She’d found the beach, that
                    was the main thing. Lucie
                    caught wind of footsteps and
                    her head snapped around.}

     _{❝Hello?
          Is this private property or something?❞}

                _{Americans were particular about that, she’d heard.}

               _{There are always funny stories to accompany Seth Clearwater and whatever happenstance he finds himself a constituent of.} 

_{Normal people liked boundaries. Boundaries were the safety net. Boundaries were what kept other individuals adherent to a life on–what most would call–the ’right’ path. But throughout his humble and more agreeable existence, Seth felt like rules were made to be broken and consequences were miles upon miles away. Treaties and parameters meant to be sanctioned as both finite and resolute, were what–ultimately–protected him. They kept him sheltered from external influences of either media or government interference—–but it also allowed for circumventing the more social aspects of life in Forks, Washington. There were parts of him that remained ignorant to the possibilities the world had to offer.}

              _{Still, he’d had his fair share of possibility, pomp, and circumstance.}

                                                              ❝…Well—-yeah.❞
                                                      ❝It’s—–…. a reservation.❞

                                       ❝It belongs to the council. And the tribe.❞
                                 ❝I guess I wouldn’t say it’s private all the time.❞
                                                ❝…We do have tours and stuff.❞
                                                ❝———-…But people live here.❞

                                             ❝It’s not like you can just come in.❞
                                                            ❝—Any old time.❞

                                                                     ❝…………❞
                                                                        ❝…….❞

                                                  ❝My name’s Seth, by the way.❞
                                                                       ❝—–…❞

                                                    ❝You asked who was here.❞</sub>
