Post-Mission Support

Sometimes, after a bad mission, the best thing to do is to seek out friends who understand. Written for Fandom Empire Prompt Tables 2024 - Prompt: "Write a ficlet" and @starwarsalltypesoflove week - Prompt: "Pragma"

Read on AO3

It wasn’t a premonition that had Mace getting out the tea kettle, but the Force likely did aid him in the timing, as he was just taking it off the heat as the door to his quarters slid open, and Qui-Gon walked in and sank onto one of the round cushions.

Mace didn’t ask if it had been a rough mission; it was obvious in the tenseness of the Force pulled around Qui-Gon, and in the weariness spilling out. It took a lot to rattle Qui-Gon, but Mace knew that he’d get the full details when he and Obi-Wan gave their mission report.

For now, tea.

He offered a cup to Qui-Gon, who accepted it with wordless gratitude, before sitting down with his own cup. For a few moments they sat in steady silence, Qui-Gon’s tension slowly easing.

“I told the Council that this mission was ill-advised,” he said, eventually.

“You did,” Mace agreed. “But it had to happen, and there is no other pair of Jedi who could have handled it better.”

“You haven’t heard our mission report yet.”

“It won’t change my opinion in that regard.”

Qui-Gon lifted his cup and drank from it, before exhaling softly.

“Obi-Wan handled himself well,” he conceeded. “And we did what we could.”

“That’s all anyone can ask.”

Qui-Gon smiled. “Bold words from you, my friend. How often have I had to remind you of the same? And I’m sure if I asked Yoda, he could name many times more.”

It was true. One’s efforts never felt like enough, sometimes, when missions went south. The trap of self-recrimination was a difficult one to escape – at least on one’s own. That was why these moments shared over tea in the aftermath were so valuable.

“And Obi-Wan?” Mace asked, after a hum of agreement.

“With his own friends,” Qui-Gon said. “They’re what he needs right now.”

Mace understood that as well – after all, he and Qui-Gon had done the same, as padawans. There were times when you confided in your master, and there were times when you confided in your peers.

There was no shortage of people to turn to, in the Temple. Everyone needed support, and everyone offered it. Their shared duty and calling, and both the joy and hardship that came with it, was something they all understood.

And so they took these quiet moments together, to center themselves, and go back out into the world, ready to face its ills again – but never alone.

Seven's still getting the hang of this whole 'privacy' concept, you'll have to be patient with her.

Es que tú voz me llena de fuerza pero también me desbarata, que impresionante es ese poder de la palabra, más el silencio muchas veces es mejor.

Happy April 1st!!

Can you believe it's been a whole year since the demo was first released?

Even if development has slowed down a little bit, I'm really happy people like the project so far, and hope you'll stick around as time goes on and see where things go.

To celebrate, a bunch of people in the discord server joined together to make a little collab pic of the main cast!

Pragma, longstanding love

To love till eternity is said in many vows

It is now why but only a how

To love for eternity is till after death too

The best part, is giving it to you.

For it won’t go as quick as Jericho’s wall

Till after death, I’ll be your endless call

Tengo miedo.

Después de tanto dolor, te encontré y no sé, si eres ideal o tus circunstancias te hacen perfecta para mi.

Es terrible como la angustia se cierne sobre mi pecho.

Quisiera tenerte a mi lado toda la vida.

Creo que somos el uno para el otro pero, me he sentido tan mal tantos años que, lo que me ofreces, podría confundirse con el cielo o un manantial en el desierto.

Quizás eres el purgatorio. Una esponja con vinagre que nunca nadie me ofreció mientras agonicé.

Se siente demasiado bien cuando estamos cerca.

Ahora eres todo para mi.

Por eso tengo miedo.

Quiero hacerle un par de heridas al tiempo amandonos hasta la sepultura.

Pero sólo puedo quererte así yo. Porque no quiero decidir por ti. Pues claro que puedo...

Al menos prolongar lo inevitable.

Jumin Week 9 Oct 22

Pragma: Enduring love/Mature love that has endured for decades 

October 9th 2022 

“Happy Anniversary my love.” Jumin kissed Lillie, holding her close. They had agreed years before not to buy each other extravagant gifts. Most gift giving occasions they took a trip or gave each other homemade or thoughtful gifts. It had been a bit difficult at first for Jumin, as he wanted to shower his wife with everything she desired and then some. However, he had to admit, receiving a gift from her that she had put time and effort into was much more satisfying than had she simply bought something. And he found that he enjoyed learning how to make something with his own hands and seeing the happiness in Lillie’s eyes when she received it. 

This year, their 30th wedding anniversary Lillie had wanted to go on a cruise. Unfortunately, she insisted they go on one with other people and forbid Jumin from buying the entire cruise so they could have it all to themselves. So far it had been pleasant enough. Mornings and nights full of love making and days full of entertainment and shopping. He loved sharing new sights and adventures with his wife. Security around them made others give them more attention than he liked, but he couldn’t afford to leave their private suite without them. 

“30 years, can you believe it? And you still look as handsome as the day we were married!” Lillie caressed her husband’s jaw, the skin beneath her fingers soft, scruff free. She noted the grey at his temples, which only made him look all the more distinguished. 

“And you as beautiful.” He said as he leaned in for another kiss. He took time to reflect on the past and how they had ended up here. His younger self had been afraid of falling into the same cycle as his father, which made him decide he would never fall in love and would only marry for convenience and to carry on the family name. But this amazing woman had changed everything. He had resisted, but in the end, she won his heart and every day they were together he thanked her for being in his life. 

Their years together had been happier than he ever thought he would ever be able to be. They had two wonderful children who had both a loving mother and a doting father. They worked together to parent to the best of their ability. He had tried to make sure that his father did not spoil his grandchildren. However, even MC thought it was delightful that he spoiled them the way he did. She worked diligently to give them a good moral upbringing. He had to admit however, that it was difficult for him not to give them everything they desired, yet he understood that while money could buy many things, it could never buy the most important things. He was of course grateful to have the ability to buy everything else. Lillie often teased him about it. 

The death of his father ten years previously had been a terrible time for him, but he was thankful that he had been able to enjoy his grandchildren. His family was close and loving, a legacy he could be proud of. 

“I bet you say that to all your wives.” Lillie teased. 

“Only you my love, my one and only. Ever after.” 

“Mmm…” they snuggled, neither wanted to raise out of bed. They had made plans for the day, but it was so warm and comfortable, both deep in their memories of a wonderful life together and hopeful for many more years ahead.

Y que no te vayas y cuando lo intentes lo pienses dos veces por si te arrepientes, y que no me faltes y que no me tientes y te encuentres cerca cuando esté caliente.
