TEMPLE TO OUR LOVE / MEETING 2/2/23 - AMADEUS. - 02-03-2020

one hand was rested comfortably on amadeus's hip while the other held in it , of course , a glass of wine . a crooked smile on his face only grew as his eyes scanned the growing crowd , his heart skipping a few beats . these were his people , his reasons to wake up in the morning and to get through the day . he had been sitting on this for a while now , but he wanted to celebrate with these people . something meaningful , something more than their usual fun , rowdy get togethers that they do every night . a night to celebrate not him , not dionysus , but the people . they are the reason that they are here . without them there would be no cult of dionysus , nobody to worship the greek god of wine himself .
Re: TEMPLE TO OUR LOVE / MEETING 2/2/23 - OPHELIA - 02-04-2020
[align=center][div style="width: 350px; text-align: justify; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 1.4;"]ophelia wandered towards the bonfire with a babbling somer held in her arms. "oh, how dare they," she commented like she was having a conversation with him. she kissed him lightly on his cheek and in response he let out a giggle and did the same, even though his kiss was more of him just shoving his face into her cheek before starting to wiggle in her arms in attempts to make her let him down. "you can crawl around after the meeting, love." he eventually gave up, grabbing her hair in both of his hands instead which made ophelia chuckle as she sat down and waited for the meeting to start.

small chatter eventually broaden as the sunset transitions to sundown . laughter coming from somewhere far too close . he sits off farthest from the crowd , in hopes he could scope any important announcement amadeus might have . but is it important enough to bear all this noise ? click . click . he's afraid if he places anymore pressure on the pen he clutches it might break . wouldn't be the first one , not necessarily the last . but he doesn't have any more pens in tow ; not to get him through a potentially long meeting . click . click. he could leave — but no — he had to do this. it was best for him. it was best for his thirteen year old son , who he almost forgotten he had until three months prior. life was just that crazy , wasn't it ?
vince easily integrated himself without struggle; currently , he's mingled somewhere in the crowd. mitchell isn't worried; he knows that , despite showing clear-cut symptoms of being a cult ( besides literally having the world cult in their title ) they were safe. ironically , they didn't display the negatives . in fact , they did their own thing , separating themselves from a dismantled society . they lived their life in a way that mitchell never really knew how ; his family was traditional . woman and man in a marriage to one devoting god , loving more than one person at once ? unheard of . but these people ? they weren't only religious , but they embraced multiple partners . it was outside of what he was raised in , however , mitchell strayed from those practices long ago. when mitchell dwelled on the qualities of a safe child-friendly environment , he didn't dwell on the romantical aspects. only what would most likely keep his son alive .
click . click . click. somewhere , he thinks he hears amadeus , but he sounds gurgled , underwater . . . far away. far away. eyes lifted . people begin to quiet , however , therefore allowing mitchell to relax . he places pressure on his trembling leg , readying his journal so he could take whatever notes were most palpable.

Alexios joined the forming crowd who was forming to listen to what would be said at the meeting. Though she wasn't sure where to sit since she didn't want to be in anyone's way. So, she sat where she felt would work best: on the ground and out of the way. Once it seemed like everyone that was going to come came, she crossed her legs criss-cross styled and placed her hands in her lap.
She was wearing black shorts and a button-down short-sleeve shirt which was about halfway unbuttoned anyways. A hand reached up and pushed a curly strand of hair out of her face, rocking side to side a bit as she waited for the meeting to actually start. Though for now, she was wondering what she'd do after this if anything.

pluto strode over to xios to run a hand through her hair and plant a kiss on her head , before turning to walk over to ophelia and somer with a tiny wave to xios . he sat down beside ophelia and lightly tickled one of somer's feet , cooing quietly at him as he waited with the others .

he still wasn't used to all the affection , he's hung around the cult for a little while but still wasn't used to all the easy give and take , ebb and flow that the group had . it was still foreign to him and the stars giggled , laughing at his inability to understand the gentle balance that the group had . y̶̝͛ò̶̳ǔ̸͔'̴̘̄ľ̵̰l̴̛̻ ̸̡͆r̵̞͐ủ̷̧i̵͝ͅṅ̷̞ ̴͕̈i̶̠͝t̸̮̎ and orias exhaled a breath he didn't know he was holding , eyes slowly drawing back up to find amadeus among the crowd and he waited . he wondered what he had to say .

amadeus took a sip from his glass and cleared his throat , running through what he was going to say in his mind just to make sure he didn't miss or mess up anything . ❝ alright let's get this meeting started , shall we ? don't want to keep you all from the party for too long , i'm sure you're all itching to let loose . ❞ he chuckled .

✦ | it had taken shiloh a few moments for the call of a meeting to sink into their mind, senses captured completely by the minuscule furred creature softly buzzing on their index finger. the bumblebee has come out of nowhere and snapped the agrotis out of their journey into a dream world under the gently beating sunshine. the bumblebee had originally landed on a lone blossom, seeking out the golden pollen like a prized treasure. however, a sleepy wavering hand that had inched its way closer to the ivory petals led the striped insect away from the yellow powdery substance and onto their fingertip. up until the ( honey-dripping, sweet as wine ) voice of amadeus and the shuffle of other members snapped them back into reality, shiloh was ready to devote their entire time cooing and gently muttering to the bumblebee in their hold.
"sorry little one, hope to see you another time. enjoy your snack, pequeño." they whispered, soft smile slipping onto their face as the bee slipped from their finger back to the flower once close enough. giving a final glance to the bug, shiloh pushed themself off the slightly crumbled rock they were sunbathing on and took slightly quickened steps towards the location of the bonfire, simultaneously giving boyish smiles and apologies to those they might've pushed, brushing away at any lingering dust or pebbles stuck on their pastel shirt or pale pants.
once they had arrived at the bonfire, most of the area seemed to be packed with agrotis. shuffling through, they managed to snag an area close to where the anax stood, as well as a few other members they were lucky to be very familiar with. they attempted to send them all a fleeting grin even if they were not looking at their direction before amadeus began to speak. ( they tried to best to focus more on the words slipping from his mouth more than the rushing noise pounding in their ears encouraged by their fleeting heart. )
small dips of their head indicated their full attention to everything their leader said, mulling over some of the important announcements given in the speech. tryouts peaked their interest, if not slightly worried them a bit. it would be nice to hold a title behind their name, hoping it'd show how reliable and helpful they wish to be to everyone in their group. but at the same time... would they be good enough for it? their own comment caused the closed smile to downturn a bit, heart once pounding out of hidden affection then beating out of the tiniest anxiety. yet it all flowed over at the announcement of a bash. "that sounds great..." they muttered under their breath, excitement pouring into their veins and onto their facial features. ( it nearly overflowed at the last words of the anex: celebrating all of you. )
shiloh gave a final nod and shining smile towards amadeus. "thank you."
