~~~~~~~~~~

Karyme turned onto her back, sighing. Even if it was 1 am, sleep just wasn’t coming to her. She was an insomniac, sure, but after she did today she was sure it would’ve tuckered her out.

And yet, she was wide awake.

She stared at the ceiling of her bedroom with a blank expression, somewhat annoyed at her situation.

She closed her eyes for what felt like the millionth time, trying once again to fall asleep, only to be startled by a sound.

She sat up in her bed, eyes darting around the room. She waited in the darkness, until she heard the sound again.

It was a quick thud, not loud, but noticeable. It didn’t sound dangerous.. but that didn’t ease Karyme’s nerves.

Her gaze went to her window. She sat completely still, waiting, and then she saw it.

A small rock hit against her window, making that same sound. The rock was surrounded by a teal-ish aura that only disappeared once the rock hit the window.

Karyme let out a breath, eyebrows furrowed as she got out of bed. She didn’t bother to put too much effort into her outfit as she quickly changed, throwing on some random sweats and her favorite jacket before approaching the window.

It was dark out, too dark to make out anything visible in her backyard.

She huffed in annoyance as she opened the window quietly. She swung her legs out, and sighed. Her least favorite part of sneaking out was having to jump from her window, but she had no other choice.

Karyme closes her eyes, and jumps.

The distance from her window to the grass isn’t much, but yet, it always caught her off guard.

Karyme lands on her feet, luckily, and sighs as she looks around.

”Are you really going to hide from me?” She asks to the darkness.

She crosses her arms as a shuffle is heard, and a slight laugh is heard.

“Of course not.” A figure replies, leaving the darkness.

He only stops as a rock is thrown at him. He puts a hand up, and stops the rock mid air, throwing it over his shoulder as he resumes walking forward.

”Nice throw.” He comments as he stops in front of Karyme.

Karyme crosses her arms. "You're an asshole, Kaiden."

"Am I now?" Kaiden hums. "It's not like I woke you up."

Karyme rolls her eyes. "Why are you here?"

"I came to see if you were awake," Kaiden says. “I wanted to go somewhere with you.”

Karyme sighs. “At 1 am?”

“There’s less people there at this time,” Kaiden shrugs. “I thought you would like it better that way.”

Karyme pinches her nose bridge. “What place..?”

“It’s a surprise,” Kaiden says. “Just trust me.”

Karyme gives him a look, and sighs. “Fine.”

Kaiden smiles, extending his hand towards Karyme. “It’ll be fun, I promise.”

Karyme takes his hand, feeling her heart flutter. Even if it was late, she couldn’t deny that a night out with her boyfriend sounded perfect. And as he led her to his car, she pondered over what this surprise would contain.

~~~~~~~~~~

Sitting in the car, Karyme watched the city lights and buildings disappear as they ventured into the rural area of Eris. The only thing she saw was an endless road, and the vacant land on either side of them. The radio was playing quietly, serving as background noise.

“This seems like something out of a horror movie..” Karyme mumbles absentmindedly.

Kaiden taps his finger on the steering wheel. “How so?”

“You’re luring me away to the middle of nowhere, like you’re gon’ kill me or somethin’..” Karyme says.

The tapping stops, and Kaiden sighs.

“You really think I’d kill you.?” He asks hesitantly.

“No,” Karyme says. “You can’t even kill a spider.”

“Neither can you,” Kaiden responds. “Remember last week’s incident?”

Karyme sinks into the seat, crossing her arms. “Low blow man..”

Kaiden snorts. “I had never seen you so scared, you were clinging onto me, terrified-“

“You were scared too, asshole..” Karyme retaliates. “And you also screamed.”

“Touché.” Kaiden says.

The car falls back into silence, not an awkward one, but a comfortable one.

“..so.. where are we going.?” Karyme asks after a bit.

“I told you, it’s a surprise.” Kaiden replies.

“Just tell me-” Karyme whines before Kaiden interrupts her.

“Or you could read the sign.” He says, pointing for Karyme to spot the sign.

The sign was a bit rusted, but the words “GEMMA CREEK” stood out enough to be readable.

Karyme raises her eyebrows a bit. “I’ve never heard of this place..”

“Maybe because no one comes here,” Kaiden says. “At least, no adults do.”

“So then why are we here?” Karyme asks.

Kaiden frowns playfully. “Oh, so we’re adults now?” He laughs a bit. “Lighten up, you’re 19, not 90.”

Karyme slumps back dramatically. “Feels like I’ve lived multiple lives..”

Kaiden hums in amusement. “Alright you old soul,” He says as he parks the car. “Get the blankets from the back seat.”

Karyme reaches behind, taking ahold of the. Blankets as Kaiden steps out of the car, scanning the area.

“What are you doing now?” She asks.

“Just making sure no one else is around.” He replies.

Karyme leans on the car, rolling her eyes. “I doubt anyone in their right mind would be in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night.”

Kaiden snorts. “Yeah yeah.” He pushes a few trees out of the way, revealing a pathway. “Come on, stay close.”

Karyme hesitantly follows him, her eyes wandering. Surprisingly, she felt pretty safe despite the tense atmosphere. She found the sounds of nature comforting, and she found her usually uptight demeanor fade away as they walked on..

~~~~~~~~~~

The night goes on, and Kaiden and Karyme are laying on a blanket next to the creek. The sounds of crickets and a light breeze set a calm atmosphere.

The surprise, as Kaiden finally explained, was a meteor shower, something Karyme had expressed interest in seeing. Despite her seemingly calm expression, she was ecstatic.

For now, they had time to kill before it started.

Neither of them spoke for a while. There was hardly anything to say, but just being together was enough for them both.

it was a bit cold, and it was starting to set into Karyme’s bones. She pulled her jacket tightly around herself, trying to gain a bit of warmth.

“You cold?” Kaiden asks.

Karyme just shakes her head a bit.

Kaiden sits up, opening his arms. “Come here.”

Karyme slowly over closer to him, settling into his embrace. He, by some miracle, is warm. Kaiden buries his head into her neck, and the silence returns.

Karyme feels her heart fluttering. Even after so long, he still caused her these feelings.. these emotions..

She feels his lips trail on the side of her neck slowly, sending a shiver up her spine. Karyme bites her lip, silencing herself, trying ever so hard to remain calm..

In a split second, things change.

Karyme’s now laying on the blanket, Kaiden hovering over her. Her arms are now around his neck, and his are holding onto her hips. Karyme suddenly feels warm, hot even. He has her pinned down as they kiss passionately.

Suddenly, the intensity fades for a second, and a sense of dread fills Karyme.

She tries not to remember that night 5 years ago, but she can’t forget..

Her mind starts to race, panic, anxiety, fear, they all fill her senses..

“-baby?”

Karyme stops, looking at Kaiden. His gaze is filled with concern.

“I-I..” Karyme stutters, feeling as if she just ruined the whole moment.

“Hey, it’s fine, we don’t have to-“ Kaiden starts.

Karyme shuts her eyes, giving all her emotions a good ol’ fuck you, and pulls Kaiden back down by the collar of his shirt, resuming the make-out session.

They go right back at it, even more than before. Karyme shoves away her fears, just repeating to herself that it’s fine, she’s fine, he’s fine..

Kaiden’s hands find their way under Karyme’s shirt, and her own hands find their way into his hair. They’re both overheating at this point, sweating even.

They keep at it until Kaiden’s phone starts to ring, interrupting them.

Kaiden pulls away from Karyme, sighing.

“Guess we’ll have to continue later, the meteor shower is about to start.” He says.

Karyme sits up, breathing deeply. “Yeah..”

They go back to sitting closely as the first meteors begin to fall, and in the beauty of it all, Karyme finds a sense of happiness.

She really is lucky to have a guy like him.

[griancraft]

Hi guys, this is sort of my official "please, for the love of god, listen to Skyjacks with me” post because I’m losing my mind and all the content I can find is from the latest stuff right now, and I don’t want to spoil myself. I want to be able to talk about this with people!!!! I will make a watch (listen) party discord if there is enough interest. Just give it a chance; you won’t regret it. Also, some information may be wrong or outdated. I’m on episode 11 out of over 200.

Skyjacks is a ttrpg podcast about sky pirates in a world where there was a catastrophe about 200 years ago that left the sea unsafe to sail and maybe even damaged the entire world to the point where civilization is scattered and in small groups. There is very casual queer rep, and it’s casual to the point where it really just fits into the world perfectly.

A brief summary of the premise of the first episode will hopefully get you hooked. I’m really bad at summaries, but I promise it’s a billion times better than how I talked about it here:

Captain Orimar Vale is dead, and a mutiny will be on Gable, Jonnit, Travis, and Dref’s hands if they are unable to keep up the ruse of him being alive. To do this, necromancy (deeply forbidden magic) is performed by the Dref, the ship's doctor, to turn him into a semi-functional zombie. Captain Orimar is famous for his abilities as a captain; to replicate this will take great skill.

As they run out of supplies, they make a desperate decision: port on the land of one of Orimar’s scorned lovers or deal with the growing uneasiness of the rest of the crew. They haven’t seen their captain healthy in months, and whispers about his health are starting. However, greater danger will await them when they take to the skies again, lurking just beyond the clouds…

And more propaganda as to why I think you guys will like it:

There are unique and interesting gameplay mechanics they use to tell a really cool story, and if you like Hermitcraft or any other sorta storytelling-based SMP, I promise you’ll like it. Like. If you liked Boatem from Hermitcraft 8, you’ll love the characters in Skyjacks. The players are exceptionally good at playing their characters, their humour is unmatched by anything similar I’ve had the pleasure of seeing, and the story is prioritized, which I think is an amazing choice.

Best part? It’s still ongoing after, like, 5 years. Some people have left, but a good chunk of the OG cast has stayed. Not that leaving is bad, because holy crap, 5 years is a long time, and stories have to end at some point! It’s a good way of getting into something and knowing there is still a shit ton of content to be explored.

The music is good. The story is good. The characters and humour are amazing. The lore of the world is sprinkled throughout, and as you learn more about the world, the more excited you get. It’s incredible so far, and if you decide to listen to it, I will actually love you forever and ever. My boyfriend is on episode 190, and he finds it so funny every time I go. Oh my god, this is so cool.

Link to the podcast, but in a playlist (up to 180). So it’s in order and easy to find, since it’s a part of something else from the oneshot network:

#I need you guys to get into skyjacks I cannot do this alone #Can’t even look in the skyjacks tag for fan art to loose my mind about because I am literally over 200 1hr+ episodes BEHIND #I promise it is so worth it #I’m almost done episode 11 : #which is so so early so it would be very easy to catch up to me #I’m going to reblog this once a day or so I think #collapses in a heap of dust this post was never supposed to be this long #also please don’t spoil me if you’re ahead or get ahead guys istg i will kill you with my bare hands I’ll put my episode number in my pinne #ack tags too long #me when I infodump for 45 minutes straight when I should be working on my final essay #I’m dragging you fuckers kicking and screaming. Please guys. #I realize now this will like definitely show up in the tags but honestly I don’t know if that matters

harder than you think

i. When the Narnians stole Edmund away from beneath the Witch's blade, they told him he was safe. This wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the whole truth either.

ii. They brought him to the Stone Table. It was night. Edmund doubted very much that he would find safety there, for he still recoiled at the name of Aslan. He slept fitfully and woke the next morning before the sun was up.

iii. A sliver of gold just beyond the tent flap captured his attention, there in the dark. Unaccountably, Edmund felt the urge to rise and go towards it.

iv. And there was Aslan, who was supposed to be fearsome, supposed to be dangerous, supposed to be powerful, and he was he was he was. Dimly, Edmund felt himself hitting the ground.

v. But then Aslan said, “Come, Son of Adam. Let us walk a while, and reason together.”

vi. And as they walked together, in the cool dewy grass of early morning, the Lion told Edmund everything that he had ever done.

vii. They were standing in front of the Table when the conversation turned. Aslan spoke a riddle of a house blasted into rubble which he would piece back together overnight. He spoke of flesh being pierced, blood being shed, and of rejected stones being used for new foundations. He spoke about water welling up forever, washing you clean of everything you ever did wrong, all the blood that you ever thought of shedding, everything you ever tried to steal, and a river that carries you home when you can't walk anymore and spits you out brand new when it reaches the sea.

viii. Edmund's head swam. Silently, he yearned for the wisdom to understand what he was being told; or, failing that, at least to remember it for as long as it took him to puzzle it out.

ix. And then, the Witch. Then, the battle. The thrones. A year passed, and winter came. In its time, it melted back to glorious spring.

x. “Edmund,” said Lucy one day. “There's something we need to tell you.” She and Susan were cloaked in springtime gossamer, like fairy queens in poems he only half remembered. They sat on the window seat in his study, holding hands white-knuckled: his two beloved sisters.

xi. “It's about Aslan,” Susan said. “And the White Witch, and how he made her renounce her claim on your blood. The night before Beruna, he went back to the Stone Table.”

xii. “He let her kill him,” Lucy cut in. “Instead of you. And then, because he hadn't done anything wrong, the Emperor's Deeper Magic brought him back to life.”

xiii. “We've been arguing all year about how much to tell you,” said Susan wryly. Then, a little gentler, “We don't want to hurt you, but we feel you ought to be told what he did for you.”

xiv. And Edmund, who had never forgotten what Aslan told him on that cool, dewy morning before the sun came up, shut his eyes and whispered, “I know.”

xv. I know, he said. I know that he died. I know that he did it for me. I know he lived again because I saw him the next day, and the next, and the next. I think I know what it means - or at least, I know the shape of it.

xvi. “Oh,” said Lucy. “We should have realized that he would have told you himself.”

xvii. “Yes. But please, tell me the story all the same.”

#finally returning to this little character study series thing #I really like this one #bc Edmund pretty clearly knows about Aslan's sacrifice in later books but as of the end of lww the girls are still debating #what if anything he should be told #and like. imo that was what the early morning talk was #the gospel presented in that Jesus-y way where he's like 'this is all gonna make sense to you in a little bit once it gets fulfilled' #in addition to some of the more specific stuff about Edmund's specific sin probably #in my head the closest parallel for that conversation would end up being the magician's book with lucy #anyway #this whole series is being posted together on ao3 just so you know #narnia #the traitor who mended #reading fairy tales again #pontifications and creations #leah stories

Day 10: Omen for my Angeltober 2023.

Damiel, who also goes by Dame, is a principality angel of church graveyards. In the lore of my OCverse, principalities are angels who guard or have dominion over specific places, things, or rarely, beings. These are their charges. Principalities are especially strong near their charges, with the tradeoff of becoming weaker the longer they are away from them.

Unlike their fiery, energetic siblings, Dame is quiet and calm most of the time. Her true form is an angelic church grim, which inspired one of my most popular pins!
