didn’t know if i should send this to fleet-follows (bc of this event being shown on that blog) or here (because this is the “main blog” for this story and also mod talk is more common here) so i’m just gonna send this here and hope for the best.
mod question!! so yeah, sapphire killed taffy, but like.. how exactly? was that a fang attached to her teeth and she bit taffy’s neck? or was taffy slashed? asking for silly reasons
Great question! I'll try to explain so everyone can understand without having to dig for the relevant posts.
So something the Crystal Fleet were equiped with weer metal fang inserts in their mouth. Both for fear factor and for bitting attacks when in desperate need.
Here's what Sapphire's looked like.
Here is also an image similar to what I had in mind for what it looks like inside the mouth. If you ever had braces you may have worn something like one of these bad boys. Just imagine metal fangs being on the outter side of this.
So back to your question: Sapphire was captured and concealed her metal fangs, playing dead until the time was right. Taffy Fancy was distracted by a commotion outside the tent and she ceased the moment by rocketing up and tearing out his throat with the fangs. He didn't die right away, unfortunately, but he did pass in the end.

Also no need to over think sending in mod questions, haha. I'll just answer the ask on whichever blog I see fit in the moment, no worries c:

Pairing: Callie Torres (ofc) x fem!reader
Summary: Callie and reader are in a serious relationship the ortho superstar and a surgeon goddess, things are great until a case brings someone back from Callie’s past. Are you going to withstand her past relationships?
********************************************************
“Ugh” you groaned pulling your scrub mask down and untying the long gown letting it hang off of your features.
“Great job Dr. Sharpe.” One of the techs said exiting the room one after the other with congratulations after a very long and hard surgery. You smiled and thanked them, internally you were screaming though, your muscles were so tense they burned in pain, 21 hours ago you started one of the most complicated surgeries of your career. Andre one of the nurses that had come to check on the patient was exiting when you stopped him, “Can you page Dr. Torres for me?”
“Sure thing, I’ll go do it now.”
“Thank you.” You spoke softly. Within 10 minutes your wife was knocking on the door.
“Y/N?” She asked softly before stepping into the scrub room. She gently opened the door stepping towards you placing a gently hand to your lower back letting you know she was there.
“Callie…” you said, you reached back guiding her hand, “it hurts, please, it hurts.”
“okay, okay I’m right here.” She said gently, placing both hands on your lower back, her fingers were magic as they skillfully moved across locked muscles, firm yet soft. You leaned forward, taking in shaky breaths as tears rolled down your cheeks.
“Are you okay?” She asked.
“Mmhmm…” you replied trying not to completely sob at how sore you were.
“okay, let me take you home.” She said moving up you back to your shoulders, feeling the tension start to ease.
“no, I’m okay…”
“Baby, you’re hurting, you need to rest, on a good mattress and let your muscles relax. 21 hours is a record setting time and you didn’t leave to sit down but once, you need to rest.”
“But…”
“No you have a huge surgery coming up tomorrow and you need to rest today was intense.” She insisted and you nodded in response knowing that no matter how hard you tried you didn’t have the energy to out stubborn her. “So, go change and I’m taking you home…”
“what about your cases?”
“I’m on backup call, they only page me in an emergency.”
“you did that on purpose.” You said relief washing over you.
“maybe…” she said slyly breath against you next as she placed kisses, “Let’s just worry about you getting some rest.”
“if that’s what they call it…” you trailed.
——— time jump———
The next morning you found you self at the height of your cases, saving lives left and right, you were in the zone. You were Trauma/General/Cardio… you were triple board certified and amazingly good at what you did.
Your had just finished a 16 hour surgery when you were met with smiling faces in the hallway, after talking to the parents and some congratulations you were a little overwhelmed and so you went outside, you watched as ambulances stocked up and rolled out, it was trauma but it was peace to you, your place your arena.
you took a deep breath breathing in the fresh air, but it didn’t last long before a dark suv quickly rushed into the bay, a dad jumped out carrying his daughter who was unconscious. You got her on a gurney and rushed her into the ER, assessing her while getting info from dad.
“Someone page PEDS NOW, I have a 16 year old female multiple abrasions and unknown cause of loss of consciousness.”
10 hours later and you were leaving an operating room with Dr. Robbins who had assisted. You were filling paperwork out at the nurses station when you felt a hand on your shoulder.
“Hey great job in there today.” You turned to be greeted with the brightest smile.
“Oh uh thanks.”
“Are you always a goddess with a scalpel?” Was she flirtng with you, does she know you’re married?
“I uh…”
“Omg Y/N there you are…” Here was Callie, your dirty hot wife, knight in shining armor, before you could say anything she pulled you in for a kiss.
“Mm hey baby.” You whispered putting a hand to her chest and letting your head fall onto her shoulder.
“Wait, Callie… you’re married to…” Arizona put the pieces together.
“Uh yea going on two years here soon.” She said slyly a smirk covering her features.
“I had no idea…”
“well we kept it under wraps for awhile, we don’t shout it out, and yet most people who find her attractive still know to stay away from my wife.” She said passive aggressively.
“I’m sorry, I’m leaving..” she said turning heel to head the other direction.
“So ex-wife… I see the appeal.” You smirked, letting exhaustion finally take over.
“Yea well she cheated and then blames me for the plane crash and her leg so… not much I can say.”
“you don’t need to, that’s why you have me.” You leaned into her letting your eyes drift closed as you stood in the hall, letting your other sense take over.
“Forever, you are my love.” She said before escorting you home after a long day of surgeries.
