Who: Jaime Evans [[personal profile] hotterpotters , normally [personal profile] pottershotter] and OPEN
Where: Kitchen, Grounds.
When: 7/15 - 7/18 - Event catch-all
Rating: PG/PG-13
Summary: Jaime Evans going about her life in Wonderland as per usual. Sort of weird how there doesn't seem to be an event this weekend though...
The Story:

A - Kitchen

[When Jaime opened the cupboard door, she was very put off to realize that what she was after - an entire box of Cauldron Cakes - was on the top shelf, just out of her reach. Now, Jaime doesn't consider herself short by any means. That's so negative, and besides, she's got a couple of inches on the average witch her age. However, that doesn't change the fact that the Cauldron Cakes are still too high up for her to reach.

She could do the sensible thing and levitate them down, but that would imply that she couldn't have possibly gotten them any other way - and so, she starts climbing.

Jaime starts by pulling a chair over, but then she grips the handles of nearby cupboards and pulls herself up onto the counter top. Now she's easily within reach of her snack, but once she has the box she decides she doesn't want to come down just yet. So instead, she walks all the way down the counter, steps up on some decorative flour and sugar jars no one uses, and climbs up on top of refrigerator. There she perches, eating her Cauldron cakes and waiting for the unsuspecting to notice a person up there and jump out of their skins.

If she likes them though, she might greet them by pelting a (wrapped) Cauldron Cake at their heads when they aren't looking.

B - Flying

[It's been a while since Jaime's gone flying, and the weather is nice enough for it. Plus, she should probably take advantage of the fact that nothing seems to be happening in this event so far, before Wonderland decides it's made a mistake and throws something terrible their way.

So, she's up on the roof with her Nimbus 1500, letting the breeze blow her hair around. She isn't in full gear, but she's thrown lightweight, red summer robes on over her her clothes. Anyone could spot her flying from a mile away, a red blur darting around the sky.

Her favourite thing though, is kicking off from the roof. Sure, starting from the ground has it's charms, but it's incredible to launch from a high place and dip down, letting gravity do what it does and reveling in the thrill of danger before pulling herself back up again, twice as fast as before.

She can be found all over the grounds, playfully dive-bombing friends and strangers alike and dipping down to glide over trees and make absurdly large waves in the ocean.

She really ought to go flying more often.

[ Adam takes runs nearly every day, jogging around the mansion in the areas that its actually safe and not full of god knows what threats ready to eat him alive. It's usually the same, a nice quiet run no matter the time of day.

This time though, he's dive-bombed by a woman on a broomstick. He squawks, throwing his hands over his head, staring up in shock. ]


What--?!

[He seemed easy to startle, and Jaime was not even a little disappointed by the result. She swings her broom around to face the bloke, coming to a full stop while hovering several feet off the ground.]

What's the matter?

[She holds onto her broom and lets herself drop until she's hanging upside down like a mokey.]

You look like you've never seen someone fly before!

A!

[By now, Liam should probably be accustomed to giving high places a cursory glance upon entering a room. It wouldn't be quite right to say that Jaime made a habit of such things, but life with both Jaime and Seren meant learning to expect the unexpected, and knowing full well that even now, though they were all meant to be grown witches and wizards, pranks were a near-daily occurrence.

How unfortunate, then, that his sense of self-preservation failed him as he came into the kitchen seeking a cup of tea, preparing to put the kettle on to boil as though the act itself were second nature; after two years in Wonderland, he had easily developed a number of day-to-day routines, and the comfort of them meant he didn't suspect that he might not be quite so alone as he thought.]

[Oh, look at that. A handsome target. Maybe even the most handsome target Jaime could ever hope to find. And lucky Jaime, he hasn't spotted her!

Immediately though, she regrets not bringing her invisibility cloak. It doesn't get much use in Wonderland and this was all very impulsive anyway, but it would be so much more fun if she could hide eve more.

Oh, well. This will have to do. She waits for the moment Liam is least expecting it...

...and tosses a Cauldron cake at the back of his head.

[It connects squarely with the back of his head, causing him to startle and nearly drop the teacup he'd just pulled down from the cupboard, instead setting it down on the counter and turn on his heel to seek out his assailant.]

Who--

[Of course. He shouldn't even have questioned it. His lips split open into a broad smile as he folds his arms across his chest, raising an eyebrow.]

There you are. I was beginning to wonder.

[Jaime beams at him too, a perfect balance of mischief and fondness for her dear husband.]

Were you? I'm surprised this wasn't the first place you looked, really.

[Because on top of large kitchen appliances is a very normal place for someone to be.]

[personal profile] exceedinglyclever 2016-07-30 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I always feel it's safe to assume that you'll turn up back home when you're hungry.

[His smile quirks cheekily to one side, and he cants his head to get a better look at her.]

Apparently, not today. Are those cakes your lunch?

You make me sound like your cat!

[She whines, but she has a cheeky smile to match his.]

Maybe they are. Or maybe I'm just having dessert early. I can always have lunch later, you know.

[personal profile] exceedinglyclever 2016-08-12 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think even Madeline gets into half as much trouble as you tend to.

[Or tended to, once upon a time, though there's still plenty of Marauder in her, he knows.]

Right, of course. Far be it from me to criticize your schedule. You are, after all, capable of making your own decisions. [He grins back, arms still folded as he shifts his weight.] Was your throwing one an invitation to join you?

[Very good, straight O's for Mr. Evans.]

That it was - unless you'd prefer your lunch to come before dessert, like a normal person.

[That's so i>boring though, especially with a sweet tooth like Jaime's.]

[personal profile] exceedinglyclever 2016-08-19 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
If I was interesting in everything being dull and normal, I don't think we'd have gotten married.

[His grin hitches wider, and he hoists himself onto the counter just beneath her after picking up the wrapped cake that had been tossed at him moments earlier.]

Feel like meeting me halfway?
hotterpotters: Vintage People - Eisley (Watch you smile)

[personal profile] hotterpotters 2016-08-25 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
[That makes her smile wide. No, they probably wouldn't have, but she's grateful each and every day that they did.]

Depends - are you going to catch me?

[It doesn't actually depend at all. She scoots right over and drops herself off the side of the fridge. Hopefully Liam's got good reflexes.]

[personal profile] exceedinglyclever 2016-09-08 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
I could probably be persuaded.

[That's a 'yes,' of course-- and good thing, since she drops down from the fridge before the last word quite makes it out of his mouth. He's quick, at least, and catches her almost effortlessly, smiling as he plants a sound kiss against her forehead before setting her on the edge of the counter.]

Daredevil.
