Note

a huge congratulations on the 1K followers, how amazing! 🥳🥳

for the prompt, (botw!) Zelda discovers something unexpected about Link, and celebrates it in the best way she can. Any rating is cool. Have fun and write something that makes you happy. 🤗

A YEAR AND A HALF LATER

I apologize for being SO LAZY about getting around to this I honestly have no excuse. Was super fun when I finally got around to it! And yes, as promised, it is exactly 1,000 words.

Attraction

Princess Zelda had become no more than a tourist attraction. If Hyruleans were lucky, they were at the cathedral on a day where the princess was actively praying to the second-largest goddess statue in Hyrule. If you sit and wait, maybe she'll awaken her power right in front of you.

Guests weren't allowed to talk, but she could always hear their whispers. This was a cathedral far more grand than even the Temple of Time, and thus far more proficient at producing echoes. If they weren't whispering about the grandiose architecture, they were whispering about her.

Sometimes they would comment at her elegance, the way she knelt without moving, whether it was really her or just another statue. Most of the time it was the disappointed "let's move on" from tourists who had opted to sit and see if the sealing power would indeed awaken for their waiting eyes.

However, Zelda could tell that days spent praying in the cathedral weren't grueling for only her.

Link had to deal with all of this whilst standing.

"Are your feet okay?" She asked once, on their way back to the castle. "From all the standing?"

Link shrugged, his standard response.

Zelda didn't know how to help him even if he had complained. It was like they were performing roles on a stage. How else will Hyrule know that the princess is seeking out her birthright sealing power and her knight attendant has the Master Sword in hand and at the ready?

But surely he must have been bothered. There was one time when Zelda saw him coming out of her father's study uncharacteristically miffed. Did he complain to the King? What came of it? He still had his job, though. Not that you could dismiss the knight who pulled the sword that seals the darkness.

"Can I ask..." Zelda prompted. "What did you talk to my father about?"

Link didn't answer at first, continuing to walk at his same stride. It was as if he didn't hear her, but she knew he did.

"Was it about the cathedral?" She continued. "Did you ask for a chair? That's not unreasonable."

"I asked for us to stop going to the cathedral."

It was sudden, and Zelda found herself surprised at how forward that was of him. Going to the cathedral was not only seen as progress towards activating the sealing power, but also a large part of their public presence.

"I...I'm sorry, what?"

Link stopped and turned.

"I'm tired, Zelda."

Zelda's heart sank.

"Is it your feet? Your back? This is why I asked."

"No, not tired like that I..."

Link looked around a tad before stepping closer.

"Don't you hear them?" He whispered. "The way they talk about you? It's not right."

Zelda needed to stop for a second, to parse the sincerity in his face and make sure she was understanding. She scanned his eyes, his brow, the way it creased in rising anger. She opened her mouth to respond and nothing came out.

"Your father doesn't like it either," Link continued in her silence. "But there wasn't much he could do. Well, he could do a lot but-"

"You went to my father because you're tired of the gossip-mongers?"

Link nodded.

If it wouldn't add more fuel to the fire, she would have kissed him. A month ago she was asking for another knight attendant and now she'd come to realize she likely had the very best one.

Zelda hugged him, and it was like Link had never been hugged before the way he stumbled back with his arms out. Eventually, he reciprocated. Holding her to him.

Link had barely gotten used to it before Zelda enthusiastically ripped herself from the hug and took his hand.

“Come on,” she said, with a malicious smirk Link didn’t trust. “I have an idea.”

Link was tugged along, forced to start at an awkward pace that was partly walking and partly jogging as Zelda went into the heart of Castle Town.

“Zelda this is not a good idea,” Link said at half a whisper as they passed the fountain, citizens starting to spot and recognize them.

He could only imagine the fire that would run rampant tomorrow, the flame-like gossip that Zelda and Link were shirking their goddess-given duties. Two teenagers acting their age had the potential to throw the entire kingdom into disarray.

Zelda led Link to turn around a corner regardless. She knocked without hesitation on a homely wooden door and Link inhaled to forewarn her that it was very late in the night and that she couldn’t just–

“Your Highness!” The woman who had opened the door looked honored, yet no stars struck her face. She was used to the presence of the princess. “Come in! Come in!”

Link barely got a glimpse of the forty-something brunette before she had flocked to a kettle, readying tea for the princess and her guest.

“I was hoping you could do some work on Link here,” Zelda said, not needing to project her voice very far across the small hovel.

“Work?” Link asked nervously. “What do you mean work? I need work?”

“I’m assuming this is the knight attendant you’ve told me all about,” the woman said, coming over with a tray that boasted a particularly ornate teapot and three teacups.

“I’m talked about?”

“Yes, he is,” Zelda said, pointedly letting Link flounder in confusion. “I can pay his way if needed.”

She shook her head

“It’s my honor to massage the knight with the sword that seals the darkness.”

“Massage?” Link parsed. “A massage?”

“Tavra comes up to the castle bimonthly to massage me as well as the King,” Zelda explained. “She also massages walk-ins here at her home. I figured it might help. Surely you have a lot of tension.”

The idea of Zelda describing his muscles in any way made him blush, and Link agreed to get massaged so that he’d have a chance to hide it from the princess.

Alright, I just need to make this point, because these moronic Yeagerists really are beyond the pale of stupidity.

The entire POINT of "Attack on Titan" is demonstrated through Eren's gain of power.

Eren only gains the power to destroy the world BECAUSE of Marley's persecution of the Eldians. Because Grisha lost his sister to their violence, he then became radicalized, which in turn lead to him being "sent to heaven", meaning sent to Paradis Island, where he met Carla and they had Eren together. Marley's continued persecution and oppression of the Eldians lead to them sending the Warrior's to the island in an attempt to steal back the Founding Titan's power, which directly lead to Grisha attacking the Reiss family and taking that power for himself, and then GIVING IT to Eren, which, eventually, lead to Eren nearly destroying the whole world.

The entire point of this is to demonstrate how things like war and oppression, hatred and prejudice lead to nothing but disaster and devastation. Eren himself says, at the end, that he was "an idiot" who gained too much power. He's flatly saying that he's someone who never should have been given the power he had. Something we see repeatedly stated early on in the story by Reiner, when he says over and over that Eren is the last person who should have the power of the coordinate. But the cause of Eren gaining that power is Marley's own persecution and prejudice and war mongering. They sealed their own fate by doing what they did. They created the very scenario in which a person like Eren, a violent, childish, willful and selfish idiot got his hands on the power to destroy them and everything else. If Marley had never persecuted the Eldian's, Eren never would have gotten his hands on that power, and the Rumbling never would have happened. That's the POINT. The point is that war and persecution and prejudice lead to people like Eren coming into power, which then leads to holocaust levels of destruction. It's a cautionary tale about why we SHOULDN'T persecute others, why we SHOULDN'T wage war, why we SHOULDN'T be prejudiced.

This person @passionfruitkasa, who regurgitated their stupidity all over my original post about Eren and his true intentions in enacting the Rumbling, is too idiotically dumb to see that, just like all delusional Yeagerists. They think AoT a story about fighting for freedom and gee and wow, isn't that just so cool and neat. They think it's a story about the righteousness of fighting back and killing our oppressors. Fucking no. It's a story about the tragedy of people ever being put into a position of having to do those things in the first place, and how it only ever leads to MORE tragedy. Christ.

I don't get how people can over and over again miss the entire fucking point of this story, but they do. It just blows my mind, man.

inspired by my tags ⬆️ on this poast:

LAUNDRY STRIPPING

basickly laundry stripping is an old (ish) tiktok trend that for some reason has started appearing on my dashboard recently.

it involves soaking your clean laundry in a bathtub with hot water and a solution of borax, baking soda, and detergent, and the idea is to "deep-clean" your clothes removing detergent, fabric softener residue, body oils that have collected on your clothes over time, and other grime. the viral videos all show tubs full of opaque brownish gray water.

HOWEVER! the implicit (or sometimes explicit) message that "your washing machine isn't actually cleaning your clothes 🙀🙀🙀" or more bluntly, "your clean clothes are actually FILTHY!😵" borders on fear-mongering imo which is the part that really pisses me off. i've seen people blame everything from big detergent to fast fashion, and many people seem to swear by laundry stripping as a necessary practice, so i am here to debunk it. i am the debunker.

now i am become debunker, the debunker of bullshit.

✂️hyperfocus kicked in so the rest is under the cut✂️

TL;DR:

laundry stripping can technically help, but it only addresses a symptom rather than the cause of the problem. generally speaking, it is unnecessary if you wash your laundry correctly.

but many people don't.

so let's review:

I. AVOID UNNECESSARY ADDITIVES

softeners (including dryer sheets) and perfume (those scented pearls of waxy stuff) fuck with the properties of textiles (both natural and synthetic) and they can build up on the fibers. THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY AN ISSUE, in fact, it's what they're designed to do, but over time it can make fabrics feel less fluffy, it stops cotton from absorbing moisture (especially bad for bedding/towels), and it messes with functional fabrics (active wear etc).

if you really really want to use fabric softener, try limiting yourself to shirts and stuff. dont use it for underwear, and definitely dont use it for bedding and towels. also, try using less of it/don't use it for every load.

II. AVOID OVERDOSING

if you use too much laundry detergent, there's a chance that some of it will be left behind on your clothes even after the final rinse cycle. it can also make your clothes feel sticky and irritate your skin. more importantly though, IT WILL BUILD UP IN YOUR MACHINE, which not only damages seals and gaskets and wears out the motor, it also encourages the growth of bacteria and mold.

this is an easy fix though. apart from the fact that washing machines, like all appliances, need to be cleaned regularly, you can easily tell if you're overdosing by looking at and feeling your laundry at the end of a cycle. if there are any suds left or if the fabric feels slippery, put it through another rinse cycle and try using a little less detergent next time.

III. KNOW HOW TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT CYCLE AND TEMPERATURE

your washing machine has multiple settings for a reason. DON'T use the same one for everything all the time and DO NOT BE AFRAID OF THE HOT WATER SETTING. please please PLEASE wash your towels and bedding at higher temperatures.

okay, so afaik many american washing machines use lower temps because they depend on an external hot water source. according to google, the "hot water" setting on american washers can mean anything over 130°F (55°C), which is the minimum temp i would recommend for bedding and towels. (obviously mind the instructions on the tags, but tbh if a cotton pillowcase or towel can't be washed at hot temps, dont even buy it).

european washers usually have a built-in water heater and allow you to select a specific temperature, including a 95°C (203°F) cycle. USE THAT. i know, i know, every detergent brand has jumped on the climate change marketing bandwagon and tells you to conserve energy because their super duper laundry sauce can remove stains at ice cold temperatures, but that's exactly the problem. as a rule: the higher your water temperature, the less you depend on aggressive additives to clean your laundry. and if you have a washer that can do 95°C/203°F, it's probably a front loader and quite energy efficient to begin with.

like i said, 60°C/140°F is the minimum i would recommend for bedding/towels as well as for washcloths, cleaning rags, dish towels, etc. but do try to make use of the 95°C/203°F cycle occasionally. 60°C/140°F is also good for underwear and things that are actually dirty.

the 40°C/104°F cycle is totally fine for most other things, and if you're washing delicates or things that are just "worn" rather than dirty/sweaty/stained you can definitely do 30°C (86°F). google says this would be the "warm water" setting on american washers (=generally between 90°F/32°C and 110°F/43°C).

and tbh if it's your jam, feel free to do 20°C/68°F (="cold water") for those things. BUT NOT FOR BEDDING AND TOWELS

IV. SO WHAT ABOUT LAUNDRY STRIPPING?

you can do whatever you want forever. if your clothes feel sticky and not clean and you think you may have been overdosing your detergent or if you use a lot of fancy additives because you like mixing colorful things and miss making potions on the playground (no judgement btw) go ahead and try it.

one thing i want to say though is that in 90% of the videos i've seen about laundry stripping, the murky brown water is literally just DYE. 🥴 scorching hot water alone is more than enough to make textiles bleed color.

borax is also an irritant and laundry soaked in such a concoction is not something i would handle with my bare hands (if borax was legal in germany lol). hell, most detergents can irritate your skin, so if you decide to strip your laundry with this method, please use gloves.

V. A BETTER ALTERNATIVE

this is based on personal experience btw, im not just talking out of my ass. if you've been using a lot of additives and your clothes don't feel clean or smell weird even when they're freshly washed, try the following troubleshooting steps:

CLEAN YOUR WASHING MACHINE

DO NOT USE BLEACH AND VINEGAR! oddly enough, this seems to be the number one recommendation on many websites, but mixing bleach and vinegar creates POISONOUS CHLORINE GAS! 😐 both things can also potentially damage rubber seals/gaskets. instead, try the following:

start by manually cleaning the parts of your washing machine that are accessible from the outside. remove the detergent drawer/dispenser compartment, take it apart, and clean it with warm water. use a bit of dish soap and a sponge or an old tooth brush to get rid of stuck-on gunk.

wipe down the rubber gasket around the lid/door. this is just to remove any gunk or lint stuck in there so water should be enough, but you can use a bit of dish soap if you like

find the filter on your machine, take it out, clean it with a paper towel, and rinse it off

finally, run an empty cycle at the highest temp but add one or two tablespoons of natron/baking soda instead of laundry detergent

repeat as needed

REMOVE FABRIC SOFTENER RESIDUE FROM YOUR CLOTHES

tbh i hesitate to call it "residue" because coating the fibers of your clothes is literally the whole point of fabric softeners, but that's exactly why they can be problematic.

most fabric softeners are hydrophobic, so water alone won't do anything. instead, try soaking your clothes in lukewarm water with dish soap, which also works great for removing fabric softener stains, or simply put them through a cycle with dish soap instead of detergent. (please don't use too much though because it can produce a lot of foam🫧)

AVOID COMMON MISTAKES

try to remember the basic tips from above going forward:

avoid unnecessary additives (fabric softener, dryer sheets [the same thing basically], and laundry perfume)

less is more. don't use too much detergent. pods are gimmicky and fun and very convenient, but they don't give you much control over the amount. for liquid detergent and washing powder, stick to the instructions. also, detergent pods are a major source of microplastics.

choose the right cycle and water temperature.

VI. SECRET BONUS TIPS

not directly related to laundry stripping but useful to keep in mind:

don't overstuff your washing machine, and if you do half a load/a smaller load, adjust the amount of detergent accordingly.

if you use a tumble dryer, CLEAN THE FILTER AND LINT TRAP AFTER EVERY SINGLE LOAD FOR GOD'S SAKE. not only is it kind of desgostang to let all that hair and lint accumulate, it's also a fire risk 🔥 additionally, clean the internal filter as well as the vent hose regularly, and check for lint in the less accessible areas and behind/underneath the dryer.

don't leave zippers unzipped, but DO leave buttons unbuttoned.

this one is hard, i know, but try not to leave wet laundry in the machine for hours and hours. set a timer. not only will your clothes be wrinkly, they will also develop a funny smell very (and i mean very) quickly. if a load has been in there overnight, it probably needs to be washed again.

additionally, leave the lid/door open after a cycle to allow moisture to escape and to prevent mildew in your washing machine

finally, and i know this is gonna be controversial, but SORT YOUR LAUNDRY! 😭 it's the one necessary step that allows you to use the appropriate cycle/water temperature for different loads. color bleeding is not the only concern here, and you absolutely do not have to wash all colors separately, but separating whites from darks WILL preserve their color without the need for bleaching/lightening agents. general rule: separate whites from darks and bright colors. separate delicate fabrics from heavy denim. group things by cycle/temp. combine things like bedding and towels, or underwear and sweaty/stained clothes, and group semi-clean stuff that only needs a cold wash. i swear it's not as complicated as it sounds.

ok rant over 💕

I am high on weed and NyQuil and yet am still awake because a bad cough and a fever and for some reason decided it was a good idea to read the AC Odyssey Novelization! Here are some random things that stuck out that I think you should know:

Kassandra’s hears Nikolaos’ lessons in her head throughout the book.

She also loves Phoibe so much but tries so hard to pretend she doesn’t because her mother told her that love is weakness when she was a kid.

Kassandra finds Ikaros as a hatchling taking shelter among the bones at the bottom of Mount Taygetos.

It’s mostly from Kassandra’s POV but there’s some other brief POVs too. The Cult POVs seem to exist pretty much make sure that the reader knows they’re like super fucking evil and Stentor’s few POVs are mostly to bitch about Kassandra.

In one of his less bitchy POVs it’s revealed that a Spartan soldier in Megaris tried to grab Kassandra and kiss her and she either full on broke or just badly bruised his jaw

Building off that sorta, the only person Kassandra even kisses is Alkibiades at the symposium, and mostly to get information.

Nikolaos’ fate is left ambiguous for a long time.

Someone mocks Barnabas’ storytelling in line to see the Oracle and Herodotos later sets the guards on him to provide a distraction so Kassandra can sneak back and talk with the Oracle more.

The Cultists are way less protective of their identities in Delphi and way more obvious with their plans to get rid of Deimos. Also, Kassandra kills a lot of them on accident.

Aspasia keeps Kassandra from drinking poisoned wine, courtesy of Hermippos, at the symposium and helps her escape Athens

Chrysis is killed by her own biological son, the priest Dolpos who helped Myrrine, in revenge for both taking his tongue and killing countless children over the years.

Kassandra and Brasidas’ super badass warehouse fight doesn’t happen. Instead they are discovered by the Monger and taken captive and rescued by two heterae prisoners after the Monger burns Kassandra’s legs with an iron poker.

Phoibe dies playing hide and seek with Kassandra as they escort Perikles to see the Parthenon one last time and Kassandra first realizes something is wrong because she can’t hear Phoibe’s giggles anymore 😭

The first time Kassandra cries after that night on Taygetos is when Phoibe dies.

Aspasia only fully decides to leave the cult after Perikles’ death.

Pausanias’ super secret cult nickname is the Red Eyed Lion and he is uncovered because of a wine stained map or letter or something and a ring seal of a lion and some other super circumstantial evidence.

When they return to Sparta, Barnabas and the crew somehow temporarily sink the Adrestia in a cove to keep from being spotted by Spartan scouts.

The Kos and Arkadia storylines don’t happen at all and the Olympics happen after Kassandra and Myrrine already got their house.

At one point, Kassandra refers to her new family as Myrrine, Barnabas, Herotodos, and Brasidas, which made my shipper heart happy. Then in that same paragraph she refers to Herodotos and Brasidas as something like proud uncles, so we’re pretending that doesn’t exist

Kassandra is imprisoned in Athens for months and like in the game, is “rescued” by Barnabas and Sokrates. Barnabas still has his shovel but Sokrates has a broom instead of a pitchfork.

Also, there’s a small subplot about the woman Barnabas has a fling with on Naxos and her husband who Herodotos met that visited Thera. He’s being tortured by the Cult when Kassandra is imprisoned in Athens and is brutally murdered when he refuses to tell them anything.

Kleon was 100% planing to kill Deimos at Amphipolis.

Brasidas basically dies telling Kassandra how happy he is to see her what the fuck???

A lot of the confrontation on Taygetos is the same as the good ending of the game, where Deimos tells Kassandra that he’s done terrible things. But he also tells her that he can’t change no matter how much he wants to while preparing to throw a knife at Myrrine so she kills him.

Nikolaos and Stentor watch Alexios’ funeral at a distance until Kassandra and Myrrine invite them to join them for dinner.

Kassandra doesn’t fight the Minotaur and Co. but is just given the staff by Pythagoras, who talks to her after his death through the pyramid.

Aspasia’s fate is somewhat left ambiguous in the end because Kassandra’s focused too much on the vision from the pyramid.

Overall, it read a little bit like a weird fanfic! I saw glimpses of the characters we love from the game but since the author cut out such big pieces of the plot and every side quest - which makes sense since it was a very short book - we didn’t get to see too much of them either. Except for Kassandra, who is a lot more no nonsense than I imagine her as. There’s no flirting or and very little joking, but I really liked her resourcefulness and unique fighting style. And her love for Phoibe and her family that shines like a beacon throughout the entire book, from the very beginner where her mother tells her it is unspartan to love. Of course, our lovely Kassandra is a lover and a fighter and that does not change no matter what ❤️

Hope this list helps some of my fellow lovely wonderful odyssey fic writers I love you all so much you beautiful souls 😘😘😘

ok i dont care that my blog is silly gacha idol boys on main i need every person in the world ever to see the absolute bullshit these anti union propaganda posters are. the absolute fear-mongering of these posters is INSANE. they frame the union as if its a third-party corporation trying to take our wages and our voices away as if SBCorp doesnt already do that

first, what is a union?

A union (or labor union) is any group of workers who negotiate a contract / labor rights with their employer, for the purpose of protecting their rights as workers.

emphasis on group of workers because a union is not comprised of third-party. there are no outsiders who come to a workplace and go ‘hey fuck your boss organize with me :)))’. a union is organized because the employees of a workplace want to organize. and when they organize a union, they democratically decide upon a contract that they as the workers want, whether its increased wages, better protections, other benefits, etc.

Union organizers are visiting stores to get partners to sign up, with some stores filing in as little as a few days.

THIS IS A LIE. the phrasing of this implies not only a third-party organization, but one that isnt also comprised of starbucks workers. the union is MADE of starbucks workers and organizers DO NOT independently reach out to stores: WORKERS reach out to ORGANIZERS to unionize.

This card carries legal weight.

again, blatant fear-mongering. they do not have ‘legal weight’. the ONLY thing union cards say is that you want to be represented by a union. NO ONE CAN SUE YOU OVER SIGNING A UNION CARD, NOT EVEN STARBUCKS CORP ITSELF. THAT IS ILLEGAL. in the first place union cards are entirely anonymous: no one knows what you signed except the National Labor Relations Board. you CAN sign ‘no’. you CAN choose not to sign a card at all.

Union cards are legal documents and by signing you may give up your rights to speak for yourself.

yet another blatant lie! you do not forfeit ANY rights by signing a union card. NONE. in fact, if you sign a union card, it is not even a definite yes to a union. always always always, starbucks denies the legitimacy of a union card signing and requires an election vote, which is the ACTUAL election that calls for unionization.

Signing a card has legal meaning.

AGAIN. IT DOESNT. THE ONLY THING a union card says is ‘i want a union’ and that is IF you sign yes. you can sign no. OR EVEN NOT SIGN ONE AT ALL. every organizing partner is completely transparent about this because that is the truth, these union cards are in no way binding, yet starbucks corporate employs scare tactics to make it seem as if these cards will seal the deal. THEY WONT. NOT UNTIL AN ELECTION IS CALLED.

No, union organizers do not have special privileges that require you to talk to them. If at any time you are feeling harassed or unreasonably pressured, please contact your managers and the Partner Resources numbers on the Make The Right Call poster in your back room.

this is the worst part of the poster.

first, no, union organizers dont have special privileges because again they are baristas. starbucks partners who work on the floor. the same sentiment applies to shift supervisors and even store and district managers. you arent required to speak to a ‘union organizer’ because no one can fucking make you speak to your manager if you dont want to and express that you dont want to.

second, they frame ‘union organizers’ (i.e. partners and coworkers who want to organize) as authoritative and controlling, and make it easy for a partner to report an organizing partner. this will kill union organizing at a store before it can even begin.

i know none of my followers are starbucks workers and tbh i also know none of you have worked a job yet but you have to fucking look at this and see that this is blatant union busting! this is what it looks like! its manipulating language to scare workers from organizing, its lying about what a union is and how the process works and what a contract does to benefit its workers!!

like.. honest to god this is so infuriating. this is what Starbucks workers have to put up with. NATIONWIDE. across the country. INTERNATIONAL even. on top of the ridiculous changes from sbcorp itself. and you have to think, if this is what we face because of organizing, think of the shit we get every single week from corporates trying to maximize profits by cutting hours, delaying benefits, leaving partners unsafe and unsupported. its frankly fucking ridiculous

#i am so very close to doxxing myself maybe but tbfh if i lose my job i dont give a shit #YOU HAVE TO SEE THE BULLSHIT #READ THE BULLSHIT SEE THE BULLSHIT STEW IN IT #STARBUCKS #long post

I think Billy is the kind of guy who knows basically everything he can manage to know about marine life and animal life in general. He's smart, he holds information easily especially when he's interested in it and it's definitely something he's interested in.

He loves otters and seals, but his favorite creatures of the sea are sea slugs because he thinks they look badass and so pretty at the same time and he likes those vibes. Pretty, dramatic, vibrant but deadly sometimes.

I think he would also be the kind of guy who likes birds too. He's not into them like he's into marine life, but he knows a lot about corvids and seagulls. He's also an advocate for pigeons because he thinks it's sad that these birds got moved and trained to be a certain way, and then were abandoned by the people who did it and now they basically bumble around in an environment they weren't meant for.

But his passion is the water and he'll be the first to tell you not to watch shark week because it's "stupid, misinformation and fear mongering."

If he's high however and you mention anything to do with any marine animal or fish he WILL go on a two hour rant about the state of the environment, how stupid politicians and the average civilian is and exactly how he'd fix it.

EP 7. Resonance

WORD COUNT. 1276

Link to overview

_ _ _ _ _

When the blonde woman awoke, she had been changed into a hospital gown. The giant, she haphazardly got up in a panic causing her torso to ache tremendously with a grunt. Dropping back down onto the bed. “You’re awake, Ms. Ontarin,” a nurse greeted her, pleasantly surprised by her consciousness. “You broke some of your ribs, they’re currently being held in place with magic.”

“That must be taxing.”

“It’s my responsibility to take care after you during your recovery.”

“Is that so,” she murmured, looking up to the stone ceiling. “Would you mind calling over Kaldo?”

“I’ll notify them,” walking away from her bedside.

‘That was years ago, didn’t we make a deal to never encounter each other again?’ Holding herself back as she stared daggers above her. ‘I should’ve sealed it shut.’

‘I wonder how Broggy’s neighbour’s execution was processed.’ Giants were known to commemorate the deaths of their best for a week straight with lights and vigour but that was with a body intact. She wondered too many things as she was stuck to her bed. The state of her unfinished papers haunted her as much as the thought of her mother’s ghastly expression at her condition. Maybe she should’ve been a potato farmer then she wouldn’t have to run a whole train in her head because she passed out.

The door slammed open as her name was called out, “RINKA?”

“Shut up you bee monger,” she uttered as he walked over and sat down beside her. “Make a bubble.”

In the meantime, at the Magical Power Administration, 008, the tiny beast servant pushed open the door with haste. “Master Orter! Ms. Ontarin has woken up!” He looked up from his paper and immediately stood up without another word.

When he arrived in the infirmary, the blonde woman was violently smacking the Flame Cane with the hilt of his sword. Eyes ablaze with rage. Didn’t she just wake up? He can’t deal with this bullshit anymore.

“Rinka, why are you smacking someone instead of resting?” Sand wrapped around her arm to constrain her movement. “Because someone gave me honey bleached potatoes! I told you already, YOU ONLY GLAZE IT NOT DROWN IT!”

“I’ll leave you to handle her!” The target of her assault saluted him before dashing out the window. She glared at him before diminishing her violent fit as the dusty particles dissipated from her arm. She held her hand to her neck, at a loss of conversation. The nurse was on a break leaving the two of them as the only occupants. But strangely, she felt at ease when she saw his unhappy expression and sat down at the side of the bed facing him.

“Everyone’s been busy since you passed out.” He quickly went over how the Magical Cemetery, Magic Security Force, and their own administration have been putting the Madjinn encounter to rest. A total of 25 security officers were recovered and given proper burials while 13 have been confirmed to be unsalvageable from the attacks. Overall, Kaldo himself will need to analyse and accept a growing number of interns to make up for our lacking numbers while he pushed forward with her suggestion regarding the patrols.

“By the way, I defeated 6 of them,” he brought up. “What about you?” Clearly he didn’t forget her last minute bet as she thought he would. “I killed 8.” He sighed at her enthusiasm and sporadic clapping from her victory. “What do you want me to do?” With a snide-filled smile, she ordered a simple task.

“Kiss me.”

With her sat down looking up towards him expectantly, he obliged with the promise as he held her hand firmly. His figure leaned into hers as his lips touched her. Executed with a tenderness unheard of from such a stringent fellow. With genuine warmth compared to the distant gaze his eyes had, curious to her reaction.

She pursed her lips with suppressed disappointment.

He too held back his amusement, as the slight curve of the ends lips suggested. “I kissed you.”

She’ll be content with it for now, guiding his hand to her cheek. If it wasn’t for her dull complexion, she could’ve fooled him for truly being his lover as the public was, allowing the older woman to savour the moment a little longer. “I’ll be back tonight,” he added, both aware of the unwanted presence hidden in plain sight. But nonetheless, she let her mind lose consciousness again.

“Rinka, would you like to step down from being head of your division?” She looked up, her hair dishevelled and eyes snapped out of their timeless gaze. The words he uttered. It felt almost unnatural for her to consider, having already done the job for a few years. Why would she step down?

“Are you implying I should retire?” That’d be absurd. She was still rather young for a Divine Visionary.

“No, nothing like that. It’s just that Ryoh and your mother have been concerned with your well-being,” the director began. “You were diagnosed with anaemia recently as well.” The mere fact that she was overseeing such a large division with the most judicial power over the people was already alarming but she only accepted her position since her predecessor was retiring. It couldn’t be helped.

But wasn’t the Magical Items head planning to retire as well? “That’s also important.”

Regardless of how much she tried to argue against the director’s words, they were pushed down with a simple tug.

“Was that all you wanted to meet me for?”

“The interview for the candidates are coming up. It would be worth your time to check them as well.”

Pick a successor. The director’s words are absolute in this case and she abided them, walking up to Kaldo for more information. “Is that what the director stated?” She nodded. “Walkis will be here shortly with their group so,” he tossed her an extra robe and tie. Her green tie was too distinguishing along with her hair, forcibly changing its colour with a spell. “Act as my secretary will you?”

Throughout the interviews, she would hold a clipboard with general information regarding the candidate infront of her while he interviewed them with general questions and sometimes even small games to test their capabilities. But there was only one that mattered to her. “Which administration do you see yourself working in?”

They avoided hers. “Why not the Magical Power Administration?”

It seemed like they either held the current head in high esteem or found the amount of responsibilities to be too much to tackle. For people who were about strength, they completely ignored hers. With their most popular choice being the Light Cane’s position. Not even those from Saint Ars were keen on her department either. Their education and personal thoughts on the current laws weren’t something they could bear.

This was a waste of time, ready to overlook the newly handed in reports piling up on her desk. If she didn’t find someone, it wouldn’t matter. There would always be next year. The final candidate was the oldest at 19.

Orter Madl. One of the first who took Easton’s Police Cadet Programme and extended his stay. A rather new programme Kaldo managed to convinced Wahlberg to try out. Was he planning to join Magical Security as well?

“Personally, I’d like to change the management choices of the Magical Power Administration,” he stated. “From my internships these past few years, it’s been hellish interacting with them. I’m surprised its managed to hold up this long without intervention.”

“Well then,” the interviewer replied, “I hope you’ve prepared yourself for the final exam.”

Lol.

If it wasn't obvious, Orter kissed her hand.
