He was a calm, decisive, acute man. He had to be. He was a doctor, after all, and to go through all the medical schooling, all the patients, all the irritating insurance companies and all the late nights spent bent over research papers telling of the newest medicinal findings, he didn't have time for emotions.
Mathias had watched Lukas's progression through the years. He hadn't always been so callous, sharp, and aloof. There was once a time when the young man, as a child, as a teenager, as a young man, had passed his time staring up at the sky, dreaming up spells, imagining a new world, a better one.

The natural scenery revealed through the thin wall of glass was strange to his eyes. Much of the best time in his life had been spent in the bowels of a bustling city, where the stars rarely shone and where night was more common than day. It was cold there, just as the people were, and his caregiver had been dubious that he’d be able to adjust to the transition, especially seeing his poor adjustment to life in Britain. “You are not of the right stock for such a journey,” the aged man with coal eyes had said.

“I think they’d be a pretty interesting couple, don’t get me wrong,” Arthur’s thickly-accented voice rang out amidst the chaos of the arguing group, disagreeing with Elizabeta’s previous proposition. “But I just don’t see how it’ll work. I mean, he’s obviously emotionally-invested in her, and he’s been stuck to her like glue since before I can even bloody remember!

You didn’t really know what you were doing anymore. Nobody came after you when you slipped past the living room, past the kitchen, and out the door. When you were outside of the house, the night air hit you hard, and you leaned against the door you had just slammed shut for a moment, trying to take deep breaths to calm yourself down. After a moment, you pushed off from your post against the door and headed down the steps at a less-than-brisk pace, deciding that you had enough of the party for one night but that you were un

It had been a few weeks, and Bondevik had proven himself to be an able-minded reporter and writer. Perhaps because of his quiet nature, he was very good at observing small details which the average journalist fresh-out-of-college usually missed. By the time February was halfway over, Mr. Kirkland had given the two of you a $350 raise.
It was roughly lunch time when a pair of smiling girls approached you holding coffee mugs. At first you hadn’t noticed them, since you were occupied with

“I’d feel terrible to let a young lady such as yourself eat alone.”
I grabbed my umbrella, slid on my raincoat, and burst through the doors of the office building. A few hastily-muttered apologies glided from my mouth as I sped through the crowds milling along the sidewalk, sidestepping people and nearly crashing into a middle-aged woman who was guiding her son. My heart was beating rapidly, outpacing the steady drip of the downpour that crashed against the hood of my jacket. I could only think of how to reach her in time.

Hm, here you are again with that bright and cheery smile.

"How have you been? Anything cool happen since yesterday?"
I wonder why you always ask me that question. Is there really a need for it? My answer's always the same.
"Not particularly. Did anything happen to you?"
"Well, I saw something pretty cool on the news last night. They've apparently started digging through the Gulf of Mexico to learn more about the asteroid which killed the dinosaurs."

I could only watch in dumbfounded stillness as the scene unfolded before my very eyes. Captain Kirkland was gone now, withdrawing to the solitude of his cabin, lost in a haze of helplessness that only evoked further infuriation. The fight seemed to drain out of Allistor as he slumped against the wall, ruffling his auburn hair in rough, vicious yanks.
“Allistor, do you really have to…?”
My mouth couldn’t word the miserable question and I trailed into hopeless silence. Allistor sighed heavily and straightened up. He didn’t need me to finish what remained of my inquiry. He himself had gone over that dilemma many t

I watched the Captain beckon at Allistor and stride away. Peter continued chattering by my side, not noticing my attention had wandered. Although there was one terrible moment where he asked for my surname and I did not have an immediate answer, I was still in awe from just exchanging a few simple words with him. A captain. The Captain of this beautiful, powerful vessel! I might have well just met the King of England!
“Are you afraid of heights?” Peter asked.

I sighed, leaning precariously far over the creaking fence that tiptoed the cliff. The evening air threaded through my hair like a lover’s hand, comforting. Another day had come and gone, and three weeks had passed in the blink of an eye. The moon had risen and with each small movement of the stars across the darkening skies, the deeper I wallowed in sorrow and self-pity. I was leaving tonight when the roads through town were empty of traffic. The gulls were calling farewells as the sun dipped into the sea, and the shipwrights down below abandoned their work stations for home or perhaps a drink at the tavern.

Hi there! I'm VelociraptorDragon. I'm a fairly studious procrastinator who likes to spend their free time looking up the word of the day on Merriam Webster, going through paleontology news articles, and playing games.
I like to draw and write fanfictions. I love the Hetalia characters. I'm not very good at being romantic, so a lot of my fanfictions don't involve anything more than implied love here and there. Sorry if you don't like that style! I try to steer away from true romance.
When I grow up I'm probably not going to get married.
I'm an INTP in personality, but sometimes when I take the quiz I get other results (mostly INTJ so it's not a drastic difference), so that's probably not the most reliable thing to hear from me.
I'm also a major Sherlock Holmes fan, though not in a romantic way. I really like the idea of looking at a person and being able to dissect their personality and past from the tiniest indications. I love the books. :)
I also really like Doctor Who, especially because his eccentricity reminds me of Sherlock Holmes in some regards.
Spring break has ended after tomorrow, so I can't guarantee I'll be as active as I was before. I'll still be visiting this account on weekends, but I probably won't write again until my next long break. :\
Hi! Thanks so much for the Watch; I appreciate it heaps! Ahh, yes, and I, too, am a Sherlock Holmes fan! (I don't know if you're talking about the BBC show or not, but that's the one I'm obsessed with!)
