[@Wick][h1][color=teal][center][img]https://atlascultural.com/files/2014/04/Jaime-Lannister-640x480.jpg[/img] Wayne[/center][/color][/h1][hr] Wayne allowed his body to mold into Sophie's, the pair fitting together like a glove. His golden eyes were troubled, peering deep into an invisible storm only he could see. Vision and sight were the specialty of his race without question, and insight had always accompanied those two abilities. However, the future was now uncertain to Wayne, something that brought him great unrest. The Wesen and human worlds were on the brink of colliding. Something was moving, something powerful. It wasn't just Alexis, but something far larger. More elaborate. More... [i]sinister[/i]. [color=teal]"I fear that if he does not choose her, great misfortune will befall more than just the Grimms."[/color] Resting his chin atop of Sophie's head, Wayne gently rubbed Sophie's back as he continued to think. Alexis was special. She was the pivot point of a far grander scheme. Her dual nature was... unprecedented, and if it ran unchecked, it would likely be the spark that starts a wildfire.

The shrapnel lodged itself in various different plants as Elias shook his hand, dispelling the pain in his knuckles. Without another though, Elias whirled around and brought his elbow down onto the thick oak tree behind him, causing a significant dent and forcing the bark into the tree, creating a small crater. The Grimm's breathing was ragged and erratic, aptly reflecting the man's mental state. Everything about the past few days agitated him, from their new Wesen friends to Sophie's true nature. The emotions whirled around inside Elias like a hurricane, tearing apart any sense of rhyme or reason. Uttering a guttural scream, Elias slammed his open palm into the tree once more, causing an audible crack to ring through the quiet woods as the oak fractured more, tearing his skin in protest. [color=royalblue]"Why can't I just have a single, simple day?"[/color] Elias groaned, pounding his other fist into the bark. [color=royalblue]"First, it's Taric."[/color] [i]Snap![/i] [color=royalblue]"Then, surprise, it's time for you to go meet your bastard Uncle in the East!"[/color] [i]Crunch![/i] [color=royalblue]"But oh no, oh no no no! That's not enough! Then, you meet this bitch who's not even related to you!"[/color] [i]Crack![/i] [color=royalblue]"Then it's off to the city to get her ungrateful ass married!"[/color] [i]Slam![/i] [color=royalblue]"But could I just lie around and sleep with the wonderful city women? No! Then, these random Wesens show up inside the mansion!"[/color] [i]Bang![/i] [color=royalblue]"And as if two Wesen weren't enough, suddenly, Alexis is both a Grimm [i]and[/i] a Wesen because why the fuck not?!"[/color] [i]Thump![/i] [color=royalblue]"And on top of [i]everything[/i] else, the woman who I think I'm in love with-!"[/color] [i]Thud![/i] [b][color=royalblue]"-Doesn't even know I love men!"[/color][/b] Lifting his leg into the air, Elias slammed it into the heavily damaged tree, his eyes widening in shock as the entire structure exploded. Wood, bark, and leaves filled the air as the raw, unchecked brutality was unleashed. Taking in deep, ragged breaths, Elias looked down, shocked that he had entirely demolished what had to be an over 100-year-old oak with his bare hands. Grimms had special abilities that placed them above other humans, and Elias had always been exceptionally strong, however, this was a new high for him. A gentle chortle sounded behind him as a warm snout nuzzled against the crook of his neck, goaded Elias to turn around to face Hundar. The horse met Elias eyes with unnatural intelligence, bowing his head against his master's to place their foreheads together. Sighing heavily, Elias reached up and rubbed Hundar's snout, smiling weakly. [color=royalblue]"You're right, I am dramatic. But only a little. It's been a [i]shit[/i] week."[/color] After mounting Hundar, Elias returned to the mansion within half an hour, trotting into the stables to find Alexis waiting in Hundar's stall, a look of panic on her face. Quickly hiding his hands from her view to avoid revealing the extent of the damage the bark had dealt to his unprotected fists, Elias frowned, urging Hundar to trot quickly. [color=royalblue]"What's wrong? Where are the Wesens?"[/color]
