onceknown:

open for: anyone. event: wonderland grand opening.

Being a wallflower was never an option for Rachel. No, she once ruled this town as a teenager with fire in her belly. Perhaps that fire has since turned into a simmer, as she feels herself fading as the night grows long. Her brown eyes wander, brows slightly furrowed in thought. She’s two vodka sodas down, feeling only a slight buzz. What Rachel doesn’t fully comprehend is that this wasn’t a high school party. There was nobody and nothing to conquer, nobody to impress with tying a cherry stem in her mouth. This was an event filled with people who didn’t give a damn, people who just wanted to dance under neon lights and drink. Maybe that upset her to some capacity, feeling that helpless.

Her hand raises, the tips of her fingers brushing over her lips, still in thought. Finally she turns, locating the nearest willing stranger. “Have you danced yet?” Rachel questions, her tone smooth and alluring.

-

There was something alluring about the pounding bass in clubs like these. Redd was certain his heartbeat mimicked the tempo, a steady thrum against his ribcage in accompaniment to the cadence of whatever song nearly deafened him (and if he lost the hearing in his left ear he’d have to make full use of the sign languages he’d learned as a child). It was a if his other senses keenly tuned into the music, let him tap into the atmosphere of Wonderland effortlessly, and he too was an attraction with the lights and sway. He’d spent some time already on the dance floor ---alone, with company, but there were moments to spare before the real fun began.

One brow cocked at the question - watched the shape of full lips as they spoke it, and further acquainted himself with the one speaking. The waitress. Now, Redd was keen on women, sure ... it was a source of jest among his brothers in arms, but he was keen on her. He tipped her too much, even if she was in a foul mood. He liked to watch her when she balanced dishes on her forearm, the sway of her hips when she moved back and forth from the counter to the kitchen, to the booths for service. A crush, playground shit for sure. Probably because he hadn’t slept with her yet. Probably because she either wasn’t interested or made it difficult to read. (He’d argue the second, because no woman inclined toward men on this green planet could refuse him, right? (oh, the ego on him, not even remotely fragile but so very inflated)).

“ Not with you. ” Dark curls were a bit heavy with slight dampness from the heat of it out there ---so many bodies moving together in accordance to pre-dictated rhythm - but he was willing to dive back in. Drink be damned. He offered his hand out, slick smirk spreading across his lips, lost against the scruff of his beard.

“don’t look now . . . but that cutie by the bar is totally checking you out. so, need me to be your wingwoman or bodyguard? i’m good for either.” trying to gauge if they were interested or creeped out. she’d probably make a pretty terrible bodyguard but it was the sentiment that counted.

Don’t look now. And of course the first thing he did? Look. Cold hazel eyes, ones that smirks never quite met (though it was hard to tell with how wide he made them) traced over the figure pointed out to him in conversation. Consideration was made, weighing odds in his head whether it was worse leaving his place in the moment or if it was something to pursue later ---neither won, and he stayed put. For now. “ Shyness only works in penny novels and period dramas. There’s nothing cute or fun about chasing someone whose unsure of themselves. ” He swallowed back a mouthful of beer, the bottle clinking on the counter when he set it down. “ Not worth the effort. Thanks, though. ”

valerialcpez:

MAY 14TH, SATURDAY. WONDERLAND. FT. OPEN TO EVERYONE ( @retaliationmedia )

The opening of Wonderland was something the whole town had seem to talk about and Valeria was excited, the establishment unlike anything else in Lancaster. There had been some special energy coming from the crowd as they waited outside. No one had to tell her, tonight was a great opportunity to get close to certain people. Valeria had the party girl act so perfect that no one suspected the sweet and quiet nature that hid deep into her. The weight of her family on her shoulders, she was expected to use her charms and body to help the Sinful Ones. There were times when she even believed herself, loosing trace of who she used to be. “Open bar?” she half asked to the one near her. “The owner really went all out.” There was a soft laugh that escaped, one that lost itself under the volume of the DJ playing. “Future me won’t be happy, but that’s a problem for tomorrow, right?”

-

There was something catching about events like this. Redd had been exposed to them in his teen years - parties where the tension was absolutely buzzing, alive on the surface of his skin. Tonight it was different, delicious in a way that had his teeth on edge and his eyes alight. He was alive. It was a moment he’d been waiting for longer than he cared to admit. A high tolerance to alcohol had him easily putting away a few beers with no side-effect, schmoozing with whatever pretty face would entertain his antics before he shifted onto the next. Nothing too catching, lest he lose track of the end goal. When he stopped at the bar for another drink he mused at the familiar face ---everyone played a part tonight, and he nodded. “ Seems he did. ” When the beer was delivered to his palm he wrapped his fingers around it and raised it, toasting Valeria. “ To future you’s tomorrow problems. ”

[ Michiel Huisman, Cis Man, He/His, 40 ] Wanted, dead or alive is Renard “Redd” van Daal. They are a carpenter who has been in Lancaster for 1 year. They are affiliated with The Sinful Ones and serve them as the Vice President. People say they are tactful and charming but their enemies would say they are vicious and cruel. They are described as: soft brown curls pushed lazily away from empty hazel eyes, the comfort of an old flannel button-down, hard callouses worn into hands from a lifetime of work.

NAME: Renard van Daal. NICKNAME(S): Redd. AGE/DOB: 39 / March 18, 1982. OCCUPATION: Carpenter & Vice President of The Sinful Ones. SEXUALITY: Heteromantic Heterosexual. NATIONALITY: Dutch-American. LANGUAGES SPOKEN: Dutch, English, ASL, NGT, conversational Spanish. HAIR COLOR: Dark brown, streaking silver in. EYE COLOR: Hazel, favoring greys and greens. HEIGHT: 6′0″. BUILD: Athletic - lean muscle.

First Generation American for his family, Redd grew up in a house that spoke Dutch first and foremost, and learned English in school. It marked him as an outcast for a short period of his life, but as he was charming even as a child and managed to find himself a place in the fold of his Arizona home.

Neither of his parents were ever involved with the initial gang situation in their hometown. In fact, they preferred to keep their heads down and do honest work, but such was not in the stars for Redd. There was something about the comradery that caught his attention, even if the child was too young to understand the treachery that had been involved in the original biker’s club.

He attended a trade high school and went on to become a carpenter in his adult life. Redd is very good at what he does, and works freelance, but typically with contractors and architects who may need his skills.

Initially he prospected for the Wild Coyotes when as soon as he turned 18, but never patched. When whispers of The Sinful Ones came around he slipped easily to their ranks, quietly, and made himself as useful as he could. After some time he rose steadily, and has been serving as their Vice President for some time.

He has no issue getting his hands dirty when need-be. Whether or not he lacks a conscience, or his morals are really just that loose, is up to debate.

Prefers to go by Redd. Addressing him by Renard is saved for people he is closest to, and even then he’s not fond of it.

He is almost completely deaf in his right ear from an infection as a child. His parents were told the infection would spread and he would likely lose total hearing, but he was fortunate in that only his right side was affected. Nonetheless, Redd learned ASL as a preventative measure. He knows both ASL and NGT (the Dutch Sign Language branch).

Still retains hints of his accent, but hides it more now in his adulthood. He still speaks fluent Dutch to his parents, who are a bit disappointed in his involvement with all of that gang shit, but they love their son regardless. They’re also proud of his trade, and that he’s hard-working.

He has never committed to a serious relationship (nobody has ever held his interest long enough ... or maybe could deal with him that long, and his dedication to the club over anything else), but he’s had a string of lovers and quick-off girlfriends. It’s occasionally a running joke about his promiscuity, and if he ever mentions bringing his girlfriend along the answer is usually which one or who this time, Redd?
