“So, there’s there.. their.. and they’re… also affect and effect…” He sipped his coffee, a small smile on his face, “Everyone says that Japanese and Arabic are super hard to learn… I can only imagine people trying to learn the differences between there… their… and–” He paused for a moment, a bit of confusion in his voice, “… there.”

August could have stopped the other sooner — should have, really —, but chose to keep listening just to see where this was going. ❝ Please, tell me you’re not using some basic grammar to try to prove English is harder to learn. Those don’t even sound alike or have similar meanings, ❞ he shook his head. Yes, he should have stopped the nonsense earlier. ❝ English doesn’t even compare to Romance languages and all their verb tenses, ❞ he finished with an eye roll. ❝ Then again, most Americans can’t even work their own language out, as proven. ❞

Kai has a bit too much to drink as he leaned forwards on the bar looking over toward the couple in the far corner. “I’ll take on that bet. She’ll end up leaving with him tonight.”
August pondered the words for only a couple of seconds before shrugging. ❝ Guess we’ll know how low a self-esteem can go and the power of daddy issues. ❞ He picked his drink and raised the glass, sealing the bet.

Erik was punching the bag when the noise of a door closing pulled him away from his thoughts. Stopping for a minute, he turned his head to look at who had walked in and sighed. “I’ll be leaving soon, then you’ll have it all for yourself.” He told the other with a nod. @newbornfallsstarter
August walked closer to his cousin, leaning against the wall and shrugging casually. ❝ Don’t mind me. Far from me to deprive you from the destruction of an innocent punching bag, ❞ the younger Mikaelson quipped. ❝ What has it done to piss you off, anyway? ❞

Harmony didn’t make it a habit to serve minors - for obvious reasons - but, well. It was her brother, and their father’s bar. That was an exception she was willing to make, and as it was, his commentary was better than the conversation she’d be getting on the other end of the bar. She leaned against the counter, letting her eyes wander into the direction of his words, “yeah, I’ll take that action.” She agreed with an easy grin, taking in just how heated the conversation seemed to be turning. “Maybe she’ll even throw in a slap if he says something douchey enough.”
His sister’s reply only made the teen’s smirk grow larger, blue eyes shinning with unbridled mischief. There was a reason why he constantly found himself bothering his sister at Rousseu’s when he had nothing better to do; Harmony always made for good company. ❝ Now, you just made me want it to happen, H, ❞ he complained playfully. And maybe he could get to what he wanted as now the woman was getting up. ❝ But first go for the glass, ❞ he said, even if the stranger couldn’t hear him. He wanted that money.

Ever since Fiona’s vampire gene was first triggered, she hasn’t been able to control her vampirism around blood. No matter how hard she tried, she always turned into her own worst enemy around blood, her sharp fangs forming at the slightest scent of blood. As she tried her best to control herself before she caused a scene in the town square, she held onto her forehead to try and get rid of the incoming headache that had come along with it. “I’m fine.” She reassured the first person that had offered their help, not wanting anyone else’s help with something she knew she had to learn how to do herself. “Can you just give me some space please?” She asked as she could slowly feel herself losing her humanity. @newbornfallsstarter
As soon as green hues focused on the red head, August knew there was something wrong with his cousin. A frown appeared as the young man made his way to the other. ❝ I’m having a hard time believing that one, ❞ he quipped at the blatant lie. He did take a couple steps back, arms raised in mock surrender, but still stayed close enough to talk to the girl. ❝ What’s wrong. ❞

Cocking her head to the side, Alaska chugged back the rest of her drink before looking toward the couple, “I’d put fifty bucks on that she would. Guy looks like a fuckin’ idiot.”
August’s attention peaked at the words, always a pleasure to see someone willing to join in his games. ❝ We can’t both win, what would be the fun in that? — I must agree, though, dude’s an idiot. ❞

Kaden’s eyes lifted away from the beer in front of him at the words, his eyebrow raising as he looked in the direction of the couple in question, letting out a laugh at the sight. He’d seen plenty of arguments, but they made decent enough entertainment most of the time. “Double says he keeps talking once she does and she smashes the rest of his food into his face.”
The Mikaelson heir chuckled at the words, he knew that technically he would be losing money if it was to happen, but it would be worth it. ❝ We’re on. ❞ He raised his glass in a way to make the bet official. ❝ Fuck. This place really needs some real entertainment, doesn’t it? ❞ He shook his head, still grinning. It was the downside of magical borders.

Kol didn’t even bother to look up toward the couple or toward August as he drink his beer, “I won’t take that bet because I can hear everything they’re saying.”
❝ Well, that takes the fun out of it, doesn’t it? ❞ He quipped, the glass already half way to his lips. ❝ Is the conversation at least remotely interesting? ❞
mikaelsoncommaklaus.
Klaus chuckled at his son and glanced up at the couple from his place behind the bar. “I’ll match your $20 and raise you $20 that they turn the tables on us and he throws his at her.”
Of course, his father wouldn’t disappoint. August smirked and stole another glance at the couple that had just turned into the most interesting thing in the bar. ❝ Seems to me like you’re going to be a few dollars poorer, old man. ❞ Yes, he liked his odds. ❝ But while we wait — another bourbon? ❞
