It's symbolic, whenever he and Ballister narrowly meet each other from these two different fronts they've taken on in a battle he'd never dreamed of seeing, not even in his worst nightmares, to be anything but at eye-level.
Ambrosius stares up at a shape he hates to call villainous, the menacing silhouette, the distance Ambrosius is himself participant in creating, and feels the squeeze of it in his chest.
"Bal!" he shouts, because as much as Bal doesn't seem able to stop whatever crazy crusade he's set himself on, Ambrosius can't let him go on it.
"Can't we talk? Can't we try to talk? Just once?" a pause, a harsh breath under widened, pleading eyes, shortness he can't justify, because he doesn't feel physically exerted... as much as he feels always on that precipice his heart is hanging from.
"Here," he throws his sword to the ground, symbolic and idiotic, and a reminder of what he did with it. He grimaces. "Let's talk."
((ONE FOR THE KNIGHT EXES!!!!!!!!! for some bizarre reason I feel like I've written something similar already SO FORGIB ME IF IT'S REPETITIVE OF SOMETHING OF THE PAST 🥺 also hope it makes sense, wasn't so sure about the writing here, MWAH ♥ ALSO HOPE IT'S NOT GOD-MODDY? to yknow idk i had this visual of Ballister 'having the high ground' Obi-wan style so hope it's okay~?))
@mythvoiced / so he picked violence today....
Oh Ambrosius. 
Bright-eyed, righteous, level-headed Ambrosius. Sweet, loving, hopeful Ambrosius.
That’s why Ballister was drawn to him, all those years ago, wasn’t it? Because Ambrosius, heir to the heroine herself, beloved child of the Kingdom, always saw the best in people and Ballister only knew the worst of people. Lived as if he only expected the worst of people.
Loving Ambrosius was an exercise in faith. Faith that against all odds, things would turn out okay. Even if the nay-sayers said Ballister would one day end up in the very prison cells they used to lock away the criminals threatening the good of the kingdom. Even if the nay-sayers said Ballister was only using Ambrosius for extra points with the queen. Ambrosius always told him to ignore those voices. Words said out of love, out of encouragement, Ballister knows, but how could he say such callous words when Ambrosius has always lived his life, knowing who he is, knowing what his destiny would always be?
( And to some degree, Ballister will only admit when he is alone, it came true. The faith that Ambrosius believed so fervently in did bare fruit. Or at least, it should've, if not for– )  
How? Ballister has always wanted to ask him- how did it feel to step forward in life, always knowing the summit would be the inevitable destination? What was it like, knowing that even if he did stray from the path a little, his destiny would still be there waiting for him, like an armor waiting for its knight to slip into the shell?
The ground shakes beneath them. Ballister keeps his feet planted on the ground as part the wall begins to crumble. Lower, at its foundation, a pink dragon metaphorizes itself into a rhinoceros. A speedier steed as the knights of the kingdom charge at her. Nimona will be able handle them by herself for the time being, but soon, Ballister will join her. The mastermind, hand in hand with the heart of the crusade. 
For now, there is another matter, one in the shape of his beloved a hero of the realm to contend with. A knight, it seems, who foolishly approaches Ballister, not as an enemy, but as a lover. Ballister tries not to let it show: the way his fingers twitch around his sword. When was the last time someone had called him Bal?
It doesn’t help that Ambrosius is looking upon him, pleadingly, like he knows, believes that Ballister will be a better man. Ambrosius, the hero of the realm, the champion of justice, light, and most of all peace. Ambrosius, who looks at Ballister like he is still that man from three years ago, a man who is better than the crude means of plundering and vandalism and violence he has sunken to.
Ambrosius is a man who sees the best in people. Sees and believes in the best of everyone. That is why he is considered the HOPE of the Kingdom, one who speaks and believes in the potential for peace and serenity in the realm for both humans and monsters alike. 
Ballister watches Ambrosius throw his sword to the side. Gloreth’s blade clangs against the ground– what scandal, what blasphemy, how far will the golden child fall now– the metal echoing against the cobblestones. Ballister keeps his grip steady around his sword with no intention of mirroring his love. Nor of sheathing said blade either.
However.
However much of a hero Ambrosius may be, he is still but one person in a system of thousands. And a system that keeps the walls of the Kingdom up, a system that declares monsters savages to be destroyed, a system that casts outliers like Ballister as no better than monsters themselves, is a system, which keeps the Kingdom at the top, that is inherently violent. 
“Talking won’t change anything. The Kingdom will never change unless something is done. You know that as well as I do– try speaking to the Director about the monsters as anything but vermin. She’s already closed her ears to any alternatives.”
Ambrosius can speak of peace and compromise all he wants, but the only thing that such a system will respond to, the only action that will bring about change is violence itself. 
Ballister points his blade at him, the man he once loved. “You’ve chosen your grave where you stand now, Goldenloin. Prepare yourself.”

perfect seraphina. → IF SERAPHINA TAKES AFTER THEIR MOTHER and Bellamy their father, then Aeri is very happy to admit (and prove for that matter) that she takes after neither. Not one bit, thank you very much— neither path looks terribly interesting anyways: the living embodiment of a quintessential Korean woman or the figurehead of a chaebol empire. No, Aeri wants something more. More intriguing. More colorful. Grander. Everlasting. That’s the place Aeri wants to go. To a place where she will be recognized, lauded over all others, and forever remembered.
And yet here, in the family mansion, manicured fingers dig their trimmed nails into her palms as she tries not to scowl. Oh, she can hear their mother’s voice too: ‘Young women do not scowl in the midst of company, Allegra. Look at your sister– do try to be more like her.’ A decade of living outside of the Kang mansions and some things still never change. Here, Aeri becomes Allegra once more. Here, in the presence of perfect, can-do-no-wrong Seraphina, who smiles at Allegra as if they have always been the closest of siblings, like she couldn’t hold no ill will towards anyone ever, Allegra feels like a child again. A seven year old who has spoiled her best dress with her markers and now must deal with the chidings of her mother and worst of all, the whispering that ‘the youngest Kang is nothing like her older sister, is she?’ and ‘I don’t think Seraphina was ever this wild when she was that age.’
Tumblr media
“Trust me, I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t have to be. Unfortunately for the both of us, Mother wouldn’t stop pestering me.” With good reason, though Allegra loathes to admit it– an attempt on their Uncle’s life is a valid reason to at least drop by for a visit. “I’ll be out of your hair by the end of the day, hopefully.”
She takes a seat on the loveseat next to her older sister though. Legs cross as she leans back against the couch. Oh, how their mother would have a conniption seeing Allegra now: wearing clothes and displaying a nonchalance both considered unbecoming of a Kang heiress. “What do you need to know? I’m perfectly healthy and prosperous in my career– is that not good enough for you, Unnie?” That and keeping her personal life out of both dispatch and her family’s all-seeing eyes these days, well that’s the point. “I have a collection coming out in a month. Vogue will cover it in the next edition. What about you, Unnie, hm? Still busy with that business venture you and Dante-oppa started?”
Tumblr media
"Allegra Darling. ( @stillresolved ) I was not expecting to see you so early in the Month. As you usually only come by to answer daddy's invitation to the family dinner, it's a lovely surprise." A pause is made, as her smile rests on her lips, the type of smile that is typical of hers. Sympathetic. Gentle. There is this natural lightness, elegance to Seraphina's words and demaneors, staged in a way that it just couldn't be real. Perhaps the distance between her and her little sister has suffered from it, this plasticity in their interactions, this candor that Seraphina liked to wear on her sleeve as a card to play. If Bellamy tended to resemble his father, there was this will in him to do better, still - despite his conservatory thoughs about modern monarchy, it is true that Bellamy's wish was to add a touch of modernity to the way he would run the family business as well as establishing himself as a family leader. Seraphina on the other end, was the exact same as her mother : this desire to appear as a pretty face the country would put on a pedestal, the quintessential korean woman. It isn't such a surprise that like all, she had her secrets, yet, unlike many around her, it was impossible to tell what she was truly made of - a blur that Seraphina loved to use at her advantage when times are appropriate. "Are you staying for the afternoon dearest? I would love us to do some catching up. I have no idea what has happened in your life lately mmm I feel like a bad big sister." A coquettish laughter escapes from her lips followed with a light pout.

irritating. → “I said neither of those things.” Or did they? Their memory of last night got blurry, once they and Takashi got into the bedroom. “And I'm not cute. If you were looking for pleasantry this morning, you should have gone to Shinjuku instead.”
Tumblr media
A dry chuckle as he took another bite from his breakfast, eventually eyeing them over. "Takashi! Harder..deeper, fuck me more!" He recalled openly with a mocking tone. "If only you were this cute outside of an orgasm."

potential client. → IT’S EASIER BEING K than it ought to be. K had a purpose. K had a reason for the things they did. K didn’t have to worry about other people (save for the ones who mattered). K also never had to think too much about how they presented in public. The important part about being K was that they remained under the radar. No one was supposed to perceive them unless Judge Kang deemed it necessary.
Ga-ram doesn’t get that luxury of anonymity. And stepping back into the realm of the living, it seems they’ve forgotten too, that they are, in fact, perceived as a man over 182 centimeters. 
It’s no wonder the supermodel lets out a pacifying gesture in response. For a woman, nothing is scarier than an angry man in his prime.
He bristles and takes a deep breath, swallowing the irritation. "It's not small talk if you’re talking at people, not about them.” A pastime the people of her world thrives off of and ironically one that helped Judge Kang back in the day. “Some of us prefer to go about our business in peace.”
Perhaps this is not the best foot to start off with a potential client, but then again, In Guk should have known better than to put Ga-ram in a customer service position. Ga-ram is just glad that he doesn’t have to wear a name tag to top it all off. Especially now that the model is asking and pulling up her phone as if he’s little more than an object to be walked around. He grabs a notepad and a pen from the desk.
Tumblr media
“K.”
If she does end up going with In Guk for her attorney for whatever her reason might be, she won’t be interacting with Ga-ram all that much anyways. “Attorney Ko is with another client at the moment; he won’t be done for the next hour. If you’re window shopping, you can either come back at another time or I can take a message for him.”
Tumblr media
You can actually pinpoint the exact moment the rage that flares up within Hyun is shut down like a fire being snuffed out by a particularly heavy load of sand. It's accompanied by the exact same sound, even, by the ash that had already settled beneath it puffing into the air in grey and black, by the smoke still trying to escape, by the scent of charred where the fire attempts to eat at what it was being killed with.
It's in the widening of her eyes. And the subsequent stillness of her features. Her face doesn't relax as much as it settles into something else, something ice cold and dexterous, smooth, like a boa constrictor.
Every woman, and every person raised as a woman, comes equipped with... primordial rage. Millennia of injustices and being told to be quieter, softer, well-behaved, grateful, the list goes on. Hyun differentiates herself from others in her branch for being in love with that rage. And hating how often she has to still it.
No. She's seen that face before. Younger. Different. More open. An expression she can't describe but recognizes inherently, probably portraying one of those emotions human can't escape, something... inbred into the species. And she will figure it out. Even if only to show up again and wave it under that nose. Or even just to prove herself...
Prove herself...
She watches the avoidance and the bite behind the confrontational reaction. Had that been intended to shut her down? Piss her off to get her to back off? Put her in her place?
She's not familiar with the intentions of a stranger. She'll make herself easy to recognize, though.
"Relax," she says after a while, consciously choosing to ignore the discomfort that had preceded the paralegal's outburst, consciously choosing violence, so to speak. Her voice is ice-cold, and as condescending as she can muster.
"Are you familiar with the concept of small talk? Do you need me to mansplain it to you?"
Her phone appears before her with the ease of someone who's practiced with keeping it in her hands at all times. Usually, to feign contact to the outside world if she's alone with a male designer. Occasionally, to prove her reputation right.
"What's your name."
Tumblr media
"Also, I don't have a case here. I'm window shopping."

permanent inbox call!!
I’m gonna try something new as an attempt to try and interact with my mutuals more. most memes i’m not really a fan of; usually I prefer getting and giving personalized asks. mutuals if you like this post, you’re giving me permission to jump in your inboxes for ic asks and for you to do the same for me whenever it tickles your fancy!!
this being said, here are my stipulations should you like this post:
I am more likely to send you ic asks if we have plotted / have dynamics in place. these will only be sent in when i have the inspo for them.
this means in most cases, newcomers, if we have not plotted yet and you like this post, please do not expect me to send you something right away.
you do not have to answer these if you don’t want to, but this also means if I see that you ignore what I send in more often than not, I reserve the right to refuse to write anymore for you. I’m not a writing machine; I give my writing to the ppl who will give in return.
if you follow me on my other blogs, I get to send you asks from those blogs too ☺️☺️☺️

pretty sure that while aeri herself isn't involved with any illegal activities (yet 👀👀👀 ), she is quite aware of her siblings and cousin's proclivities towards such activities. this being said, in the eyes of the public, she feigns ignorance because:
a. she's too busy with her art and work to care b. it's bad publicity if that information gets out, and– c. deep down she does...care about her family and wouldn't want them to go to jail

💕!!??! almost missed this 🥺 mx ferre, what if we... put (more of) our goons in (more) situations 🥺
@mythvoiced / send 💕 and I will tell you some muses…
Tumblr media
ahhhh lenlen, the other person on here who enables me with 283948230 plots and dynamics...time for us to add like 8293048293 more 💕💕💕
okay so this was at the top of my list since you said?? That you were planning on bringing EUNJAE into our wonderful thg verse 🥺🥺🥺…and so the first person I actually though of throwing at them was ANNIE….I dunno?? I guess I just have a feeling that Annie would like eunjae for their personality- like they’re rough in mannerisms and a tad messy, both of which Annie doesn’t mind bc she’s used to being around ppl like that ( ie. Ga-ram & ara ) and also…I think she actually prefers…I think being treated completely like a piece of glass will begin to drive her up the wall :’D also my interpretation of annie is suspicious of most men/male-aligning individuals….so eunjae already checks all her boxes there <3
another dynamic I had been thinking about when you changed their fc :’D granted I’m not too sure how well these two would work out since SABRIEL isn’t the best at reading between the lines and ANNIE often operates in shades of grey but it would!! Be fun to see how they interact with one another especially at least for me throwing Annie at someone who is peppy and yet still for most part?? has good intentions?? even if sabriel can’t completely empathize with what Annie is going thru, I do think Annie would appreciate their good intentions at the very least :’D
DOE is a revolutionist (and a hacker, I could have sworn I read that somewhere but if not ignore me jfksljfsl :’D) and so is NELL, do I need to say anything more? granted they are on the same side when it comes to #revolution…but that doesn’t mean they agree to the degree which they should go for it. Doe is all for changing the system, where as team checkmate is more focused on….taking out one and only one enemy and looking out for their community. Perhaps interacting with someone like doe could radicalize her? also if doe is a hacker, nell can always have…a rival :)
okay HEAR ME OUT, I know that we do have EUNJAE and Patrick in verse one but WHAT ABOUT?? Eunjae and MYUNGDAE in verse two bc if Patrick is the competent if not a tad distant parent ( aka he had to adjust to fatherhood ngl ), then myungdae is…well think of say, jeo*ng jin*man from a shop of ki*llers, :’D aka parent that’s there, he just looks ( okay always looks ) a tad exhausted?? Out of it even? But he’s doing his best for four year old Yuri (Elise) even if he doesn’t quite feel his emotions fjskldfjs this is all to say since I’m seeing that lynnie is throwing Dante at them we might as well…bring the rest of the crime world to eunjae’s doorstep JFKLSDJFLD <3
If AERI knows of hyun, then she’s also gotta know…hyun’s sister, MIYOUNG 🤩🤩🤩 granted, Aeri might be a tad testy with miyoung since well, it’s not like miyoung could exactly be there for hyun when they were younger and is that really any different from the way bel and sera treated Aeri as condescendingly inferior :’DD ….but I also do like the idea of LGBTQ+ icons being friends with one another / media pals with one another….that and if hyun is hanging out with bel behind Aeri’s back, Aeri might as well…do the same 😂😂😂
you know who MARÍA reminds me of? Yeah that’s right, our favorite pink hair menace Nimona 🤩🤩🤩 they’re both little gremlins ( but very lovable) who wanna start shit. The revolutionary kind of shit…so this being said….WHAT IF?? Instead of Nimona being the cause of BALLISTER’S shift in mind, it could be maría instead?? We could even do it in their modern verse since I believe María does have one and is a werewolf there 🤔🤔🤔
so I know we already have a lot for them, PATRICK and MARÍA and I am a sucker for hurt/comfort with these two, but perhaps?? Later when the revolution is in full swing and should hyuk be kidnapped by the Capitol, a thread there? Aka Patrick cycles between being 💯 focused on the revolution efforts and being two steps away from a mental breakdown bc literally hyuk is his rock and his peace so take away that and uh….not good things happen. This is all to say, it could be interesting to see a scenario where perhaps maría for once is the stabler one ( however much Patrick will try to still be a pillar of stability for her tho 🥲 )

🚩 communication and / or plotting : )
@bloodxhound / send me a 🚩 and i'll share my unpopular rpc opinions...
cyan since u gave me two topics, you get two <3 <3 <3
i know we've complained about plotters who don't contribute to the process at all, but let's talk about a different kind of plotter that i absolutely HATE....it's the one where yeah, you and the mun have a plot or a dynamic going on, but the mun and muse both like, treat my muse like a complete outsider? like someone who is just an observer in their muse's monologue/life. like bruh, the point of rp relationships is that your muse is going to be affected and changed by their interactions, if that makes any sense?? if my muse is just considered a complete outsider and isn't given a way to interact meaningfully, i'm going to turn my interests elsewhere :/
I actually don’t mind when close partners make assumptions about my muses or like, theorize what they would do in hypothetical situations. again, this is reserved for partners who I trust (like u for example <3) bc I already know that they care about and know my muses very well. And if they are wrong, they won’t mind if I correct them. the assumptions anyways, can help with getting to the juicier parts of plotting faster…and also it’s always fun to see how my writing partners interpret my muses <3

@irrwicht / send 💕 and I will tell you some muses...
WONBIN is spoiled chaebol and so is AERI so what about them being exes? they can be mean to each other and have had a relationship that was plastered over all over the media in the past…perhaps they don’t have to wear masks around other either. ( please note though that aeri is already taken and she has no intentions on cheating <3 )
I think you did mention him once, but perhaps SEI and ANNIE could have been classmates back in the day? Or at least sei was one of the students who played patients for the med students back then…perhaps they can have a reunion of sorts!!
i know we already have a plot with takashi and GA-RAM, but the latter also frequents bars so if HYPNOS wants another regular to mess around with–
