@vulpesse
The lights are low — outside, and all the more so inside. Some coloured shafts pour in from outside at a downward angle, tinting the floor most of all. In this dressing room, a smattering of small lamps placed on the coffee table, the vanity, and even the ground itself cast some various shades of pink, purple and blue in a diluted radius about themselves.
Equally faint is the music outside; that vague, thrumming aftermath of a concert that went down all too well with its audience.
V's eyes land on the two bottles to the left of the almost mushroom-shaped model on the low table by the sofa he's sitting on. And it's not just him; Ahri sits not even a finger's breadth away from him, off to his right.
Tumblr media
And he finds himself wanting to lean into it — again, his attention inevitably drawn back to her like a compass' needle to the northernmost pole.
There's a dangerous amount of validation to be found there.
He abstains from it despite his longing for it, remaining just shy of that true north, and of indeed leaning her way. Instead, he chuckles gruffly in agreement with her kindred giggle, idly gesturing to the near-finished bottles on the table. ❛  I'd be a shitty guard if I didn't insist you have a glass of water now.  ❜

i am here with a small question ! (❁´◡`❁) what flower(s) or tree(s) would you associate with beloved micah ? and would micah ever be interested in having a garden, or maybe in growing vegetables and fruits in a tiny field ?
Hello, Bunstar! Thank you so much for this wonderful set of questions! (≧▽≦)ノ彡☆ ( A small question to a large answer, heheh . . . ) The Starwake System holds a special connection with nature because of Micah’s surrogate parent who is Incarnation of Earth who birthed xem through the soil and water, initially the Sun and Moon creating xem as a starseed. Due to this, a lot of the plants are meant to be associated with Micah, but I will list six most prominent flowers and trees that I associate with xem!
Tumblr media
Before I start, though, I'd love to answer the plant association question with the other main Starwakers!
Tumblr media
◜ ⟢ Phoebus ◞ Phoebus is associated with plants that bring vitality and healthy products, such as herbs, fruits, and vegetables. Phoebus is highly nurturing and solicitous in their own quiet and firm ways to their starmates, always wanting only the best of themself and the system since the moment they all existed, so plants that are known as culinary and medicinal applications best aligns with their main role of encouraging growth and providing care. Phoebus is a cooker and healer at heart, using plants for the system's meals, beverages, and natural medicines often, as well as they usually front to take care of themselves when sick. ┊ Figureset : ⁽ ¹ ⁾ Jasmine. ⁽ ² ⁾ Marigold. ⁽ ³ ⁾ Violet. ⁽ ⁴ ⁾ White Pine. ⁽ ⁵ ⁾ Apple Tree. ⁽ ⁶ ⁾ Sugar Maple
Tumblr media
◜ ⟢ Philos ◞ Philos is associated with plants that are known to be distinct and conspicuous, the kind that stands out from their unique shapes and / or features. Philos shares the similar attributes with these sort of plants by her alluring appearance and powerful personality, wanting to make her presence the most striking. However, he holds an essence that often makes him appear as more honourable than dangerous. Be closer to him and he may bring out what are the worst than best from another. They look into plants more based on their aesthetic and aroma appeal, the aspects Philos cares about with their self image the most in the system. ┊ Figureset : ⁽ ¹ ⁾ Rose. ⁽ ² ⁾ Bleeding Heart. ⁽ ³ ⁾ Passionflower. ⁽ ⁴ ⁾ Golden Chain. ⁽ ⁵ ⁾ Okame Cherry. ⁽ ⁶ ⁾ Wisteria.
Tumblr media
◜ ⟢ Phobos ◞ Phobos is associated with plants that are carnivorous and poisonous, what matches with its sharp and stealthy nature. Along with Philos, it is dangerous, although rather than acting out of maliciousness, it exists as a defence or mechanism for itself and the system, harming those that tries to ruin them while giving themselves the resources to continue living. Phobos holds greater fascination in these plants than everyone else within the Starwake System─ some people don't believe this fact because of its harsh and careless attitude, but Phobos also takes wonderful care of them when it can. ┊ Figureset : ⁽ ¹ ⁾ Sun Pitcher. ⁽ ² ⁾ Flame Lily. ⁽ ³ ⁾ Angel's Trumpet. ⁽ ⁴ ⁾ Manchineel. ⁽ ⁵ ⁾ Sandbox Tree. ⁽ ⁶ ⁾ Milky Mangrove.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In regards to Micah now, xe is associated with the following six most prominent flowers and trees : ⁽ ¹ ⁾ Shooting Star. ⁽ ² ⁾ Firefly Flower. ⁽ ³ ⁾ Dandelion. ⁽ ⁴ ⁾ Ginkgo. ⁽ ⁵ ⁾ Rainbow Eucalyptus. ⁽ ⁶ ⁾ Cherry Blossom. These plants are linked to the concepts of hope, resilience, and love that Micah represents. Xe have memories with them since childhood while they present as personal and symbolic reminders to xem.
`˳⟢˚، ⁽ ¹ ⁾ When Micah as a starseed was brought down to Earth from the Cosmos in the grasp of Ilios and Fengari before xe was buried within Gi's existence and then be birthed, Micah rose from soil and water with Shooting Stars growing around xem. Since then, Solaris Kingdom with the Solar Pantheon considered Shooting Stars as Micah's main sacred flower. While the Shooting Stars flower doesn't have cultural symbolism, the namesake celestial events are generally perceived as a symbol of good luck and positive change, as well as of passion and aspiration; these being what Micah represents when xe always make good changes in everyone and everything around xemself out of love and hope. `˳⟢˚، ⁽ ² ⁾ Firefly Flowers is another Micah's creation when xe was a toddler under Gi's care. Micah's celestial powers were still extremely strong at the time and having to spend excessive time with the plants near a lake, xyr cosmic light eventually bled into them, making changes inside of the flowers that would make them be able to glow in the dark and bloom during nighttime. Fireflies is one of Micah's sacred and favourite animals that symbolize the illumination, teaching that the light within is the power of life, and the heart and soul can always shine even in the time of darkness. `˳⟢˚، ⁽ ³ ⁾ Micah's childhood neighbourhood and elementary school have a lot of dandelions. Xe always loved to play with this plant and blow their seeds, making wishes from them. ( Xe still does in the present. ) Whenever Micah returned home after a long day without xyr adoptive parents, such as being at school, xe would usually bring them dandelions, not realizing the mess of the white seeds scattering everywhere in xyr home from the excitement of seeing xyr family and giving xyr parents flowers. Xe didn't understand the concept of " messiness " until a year later since xe engaged in this tradition when xe was six, but xyr parents only accepted xem and xyr dandelion gifts while they never complained or scolded at xem for mess xe'd make with the dandelion seeds. Dandelions means hope, perseverance, and transformation; being a reminder of strength and freedom. `˳⟢˚، ⁽ ⁴ ⁾ Ginkgo is one of the Everlove family's famous symbols. Over thirty years ago, Micah's parents planted a Ginkgo tree in the middle of their backyard shortly after they moved to their home with a vow that they'd raise a wonderful and happy family together. This Ginkgo tree was the establishing point of the Everlove's existence. Ginkgo is known to be called as the " living fossils " because they have survived for million years. They symbolize longevity and promote rejuvenation, and they are the reminders of one's resiliency, vitality, and endurance; paralleling to Micah's own ever constant perseverance and willpower. `˳⟢˚، ⁽ ⁵ ⁾ Micah doesn't have any direct experiences with the Rainbow Eucalyptus, although xyr parents did when they went to Hawaii to do film some scenes there before they had the time to admire the Rainbow Eucalyptus, sharing photos and videos of them to their kids. Micah dreams of having a Rainbow Eucalyptus in xyr large backyard one day when xe can figure out where to plant it. Rainbow Eucalyptus represents creativity, adaptability, and resilience by its myriad of colours on the barks. `˳⟢˚، ⁽ ⁶ ⁾ Micah went to a park with Adoniram where the cherry blossom trees were blooming in one of their first few dates. Xe always have a deep liking in this sort of trees and finds them quite beautiful. Xe have several pressed cherry blossom petals on xyr journal and plant collection books that xe cherishes them dearly. While many is familiar with cherry blossom being linked to rebirth and new beginnings, because cherry blossoms are quick to die, it is also symbolized as loss and temporariness. Cherry blossoms is the life and death that Micah can associated with, being part of them both since the beginning of xyr existence. Although with everything, this tree is especially the representation of love itself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Onto the secondary question re : Micah's gardening, for around ten years before the Antineon Hieraeon canon timeline, Micah had xyr personal garden shared with Adoniram's at the backyard of their home! ( In the present canon timeline, a close friend of Micah's and Adoniram’s, Father Lucas, have been taking care of their home along with the garden. ) The greenhouse, garden of flowers and natural food, and the treehouse were some of the things that xe most forward to having at xyr backyard when xe was house searching. Located at the secluded area where it is void of human related activities and disturbances, Micah's and Adoniram's backyard was as massive as their home, so they had plenty of space available to engage in gardening.
Tumblr media
Micah sometimes donates xyr natural goods to the local food stores or food banks, as well as giving them and flowers to xyr friends and family relatives, also even strangers to make their days a bit more brighter. Phoebus highly enjoys tending to their plants and the garden is usually where they’d stay in more out of all spots at their home. Philos have a more difficult time handling plants, so he’d rather have Phoebus tend to them, but she does enjoy admiring their garden. Phobos had a " secret spot " somewhere in the garden where it could take care of a few carnivorous plants. Micah did discover them and question their existences, but didn't dwell on them for too long when xe also enjoyed carnivorous plants and believed xe did buy them, but forgot.
Micah's interest in gardening was inspired by not only the Ginkgo tree that their parents planted within xyr childhood home's backyard, but xe shared xyr mother's endless passion in the nature and art of gardening. Maria Everlove have always been most careful and precise taking care of their plants, and being able to sense how much the plants love her back, Micah deeply wished that one day, xe could have xyr own garden to love and care as well.

it may not be perfect, for ahri indeed lacked the professional tools to craft such a delicate thing, but this will not stop her from placing a big egg of chocolate in front of him. dark in color, she has embellished it with colorful flowers and green leaves, adding a few fresh berries and hazelnuts here and there to enhance the taste of the chocolate. ❝ for you, little one. ❞ ♡

❛  i know a great way to burn off the calories in that drink.  ❜ ( for angel because she wants to annoy him )
 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐓𝐘  𝐏𝐈𝐂𝐊  𝐔𝐏  𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒. / accepting.
Tumblr media
Angel knows his own limits better than most. He is already painfully aware she is the type of person he has no hopes of reigning in, who would chew him up and spit him out, bring him all sorts of headaches. But Angel is only a man. There is no real reason he should pretend to not know what she might be implying - no reason for him to find it hard to hold her gaze at such a suggestion. "Don't toy with me, Ahri." But it's useless because his thoughts have already tumbled down the rabbit hole. Stubborn and flushed, he turns his face away and brings his attention back to his drink.

The snow had melted into his hair, drops of it sliding down jet-black strands. There are body parts strewn around him in the snow. Even in the dark with only the light of the moon to illuminate, dark red spray is covering most of the ground. It’s not visible, but his kefta is soaked in it. They had left the camp, Aleksander knew that with her by his side, he needed no other.
They were ambushed, but even as the men appeared behind the trees, in that split second he could see in their eyes that they had not known it would be HIM. They had expected an easier enemy, members of his Second Army. It was easy to kill them, ease the slice them, bleed them. But this scenario is too familiar. At the sound of her voice, his eyes snap up from the ground.
For one still moment, he does not move, does not speak, does nothing. And then he is in motion, what distance there is between them is covered in a few long steps. Hands on her body, lips covering hers. He isn’t gentle or kind in how he digs his fingers into flesh, pulling her flush against him. Tongue pushing forward, teeth biting. It’s a punishing kiss, a devouring one.
vulpesse asked: shut up and kiss me. ( for aleksander ) / MEME - accepting.

there had been a stir of reports of something on the border of prythian causing trouble with the mortals. more than normal , humans were coming into their territory through the gap in the wall. none returned. the humans hadn't raised a fuss about most of them , given those lost were from that odd cult of them that worshipped the fae. so long as those humans came here of their own volition , their lives were forfeit according to the treaty. while no act of war , it was enough of a problem to draw the ire of the humans near the border.
so tamlin sent his general to see if he could find a source of trouble -- see if it was fae at all. the humans could not distinguish anything outside of their own species , so it would fall on the fae's shoulders regardless.
Tumblr media
finding @vulpesse was unexpected. the mechanical golden left eye whirs in its socket as lucien's gaze flickers over the woman. everything in him stirs with warning. she is not of his kind -------- no , she feels older than his kind altogether. the smell of humans led him here. more specifically , blood. if he feels fear , it does not show on his face as he offers her a charming grin &* a sweeping , low bow. ❛ i hope you can forgive the intrusion , my lady. 𝐌𝐘 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐍 𝐕𝐀𝐍𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐀. i'm an emissary for the spring court of prythian.   my high lord sent me out to see what the fuss with the humans might pertain to. ❜ an auburn brow arches. ❛   you wouldn't happen to know anything about that , would you ? ❜
STARTER CALL ( accepting ! )

"and what is it the leader of a korean pop group would want from me, hm, miss ahri?" he tries not to act so interested, so bemused, instead choosing to study the tattoos on his hand instead of give her his full attention. still though, he is curious why someone so renowned would bother to darken his doorway. anyone with any faint music background would know of k/da. like himself.
"... we do dealings with the korean mob all the time, miss ahri, but you're the last kind of person i would've expected to be in-arms with them." he leans forward all of the sudden, black eyes gleaming with that interest. "what can i do for you?"

 ◜ 𝑰 . ◞ The first time when Micah met Ahri in the dream where there's only kindness in shining stars ⅋ blooming flowers between them , deep within their exchange , xe could sense her gaze lingering over xyr body : Bare appearing , all bearing scars ⅋ unhealed bruises ⅋ deep burnt tales ▬▬▬
      ( You are used to diverse reactions that you'd get seeing your damaged body , unloved by the world . At five years old , you viciously refused to bathe for the first time at your new home , not wanting your new wounds to be seen , still uncared for . You expected responses of anger , wild burning through you , but there was a woman who didn't do anything to you . She only sat in the tub , her clothes soaked . The bathroom door was open . She wasn't trapping you as you had a choice to leave . Eventually , you stayed with her . You stayed with your pain hidden , ⅋ when she saw it one day ▬ everything ▬ she still stayed with you . The man she loved , he didn't get to see until few months later , yet , he also stayed with you . Your parents never saw you as a tragedy . You have always been their beloved star child . )
      Ahri didn't say anything about Micah's scars in the end . Instead , while it seemed like she understand xyr state most painfully , as a tender whisper : ❝ ⅋ I wish I could tell you that the aching was a beautiful rebirth of some magnificent kind , but there is no beauty to be found in this kind of survival . ❞
      Micah breathed with the burning stars above , even through the long ⅋ deep felt aches , the brightest could think ▬ say : I am still here , I am still here , I am still here ▬ ( ⅋ isn't that terrifyingly beautiful enough ? ) ❝ As long as I am still alive , trying to love the universe as much as myself , I think that will be always beautiful enough to me . ❞ This God eating hope , it is beautiful / horrifying / everything at once .
      Xe smiled ⅋ held Ahri's clawed hand , like the moon holding the sun .
Tumblr media
 ◜ 𝑰𝑰 . ◞ Micah gave Ahri a bracelet on the second occasion where xe met her in person a near month after meeting her in the dream . When xe finally found her outside the dream realm that gave xem a map to Ahri's residence , the kindness that xe held for her despite knowing in a short time was infinite . This created trails of flowers xyr footsteps left behind until xe reached to the forest that welcomed xem home .
      ❝ I wanted to gift you a flower, but . . . please , have my garden . ❞ / ❝ Oh precious star , I do not need a gift , not when you have come to me . ❞
      Rosy blushes formed in Micah's warm cheeks at the recall , though , how xe kept shining more as xe gently took Ahri's hand so she could slip into the bracelet . ❝ I love making arts so much , especially for those I care about . ❞ The people who I love . Micah softly smiles . The bracelet Ahri wears is a silver chain with lavender crystal spheres , carrying the pendant shaped as a fox , sculpted by the kind hands of the everbright constellation .
      In great care , xyr hands guided the bracelet to Ahri's wrist , ⅋ , from watching closely , she could see black spots on certain areas of xyr left , skin parts void of blood / life . Yet , even though these cut scars across them existed , all agony bearing , xyr gentle hands felt like coming home . ( What possessed such unbearable light , light , light ▬ ) Ahri's gaze lifted as Micah raised her hand .
      Xe kissed her wrist that carried the bracelet , this endless love .
Tumblr media
 ◜ 𝑰𝑰𝑰 . ◞ Micah have stayed over at Ahri's home for one night . They shared a tender evening that soon formed a rainy weather , ⅋ Ahri insisted xem to stay or xe could get sick from the rainfall . The weather continued at past midnight when Micah was finally going to bed , xyr body once restless from xyr insomnia . Sensitive to clothing materials , Micah removed xyr shirt for better chance of quickly falling asleep ⅋ lied down on the cool sheet , softly wishing Ahri goodnight .
      Several minutes passed before Ahri noticed , as much as Micah tried xyr best to appear as otherwise so xe wouldn't disturb her rest , that xe was still awake from hearing the occasional shuffles , seemingly in an uncomfortable position .
      Concerned , Ahri planned to ask what's wrong before Micah whispered ,
      ❝ Ahri , can you sleep next to me , please ? ❞
      She learnt xe usually couldn't sleep without having something to hold , like a soft blanket or plushie . Micah sought comfort in her presence , a hunger shaped as vixen teeth ⅋ claws , sweet sanguine ⅋ deadly lavender wild nature . In Ahri , through man massacres born from animalistic instincts , xe saw a friend .
      Ahri carefully held xem , watching the stars slowly dim in her embrace . Micah kept giggling , xyr eyes squinted . Sleepy giddiness built in xem from hugging Ahri's arm , nuzzling her shoulder . From this position , she could see finer details of xyr scars ⅋ tattoos across xyr body . Beauty ⅋ horror stared back at her .
      She didn't touch them . She couldn't .
      Micah soon fell silent ⅋ still .
      Ahri held xem closely to her chest , protecting her stars .
Tumblr media
 ◜ 𝑽𝑰 . ◞ On the full moon , Micah ⅋ Ahri were bathing in the lunar light together , the stars shining upon their existences with the motherly moon . Rested against the open field on their backs , they exchanged personal facts ⅋ stories , finding joys in the smallest details of each other .
      Ahri's gaze softened at the sight of Micah , xyr facial expression lax while xyr body radiates silver serenity . She sensed waves of tenderness rolling over from xem . Micah made a happy squeak ⅋ leaned closer , xyr face pressed into the warm curve of Ahri's neck .
      Between them , only love lived freely .
      Upon midnight , Ahri saw faint light ⅋ glanced down , seeing Micah's scars glow gently with the moon ⅋ stars . Xe didn't seem to notice , xyr focus had been on Ahri's hands that xe's playing with , finger lightly tracing along the palm lines . ( Maybe Micah already knew , but didn't want to bring so much attention to them . )
      Her fingers hovered over the glowing scars . She still didn't touch them . She wanted to know who could hurt xem like this . Who would desire to inflict Micah while xe had brought kindness to this world . Who did she have to kill ▬
      ❝ You can touch them , ❞ Micah's whisper broke the silence , xyr soft gaze on Ahri's palms not once breaking . Xe held her hands to xyr chest , xyr open heart , ❝ I trust you , Ahri , ❞ I love you .
      Ahri's hands slowly lifted to hold xyr cheeks , her thumbs brushing skin .
      Her lips met Micah's scar on the bridge of xyr nose .
      Between the cerulean sky ⅋ sanguine wilderness , love still stayed .
Tumblr media
 ◜ 𝑽 . ◞ Ahri stared at the new slow healing wounds ⅋ scars that Micah's body held , the most prominent being a deep line around xyr neck . It had been a while since she last saw xem ⅋ finding Micah once more in a wounded state , the sight hurt Ahri . This pain have worsened when Micah greeted her like nothing happened to xem . Micah kept shining , even in the abyss . The world didn't love xem enough as it seemed since a very long time , yet , Micah only kept loving it .
      The world should be horrified by xyr impossible endurance .
      Ahri found a warm smile on Micah's face , xyr eyes bright as always , before she was embraced in xyr arms ▬ what felt like home , home , home ▬ Ahri returned xem the gesture , but didn't let go of xem .
      She held Micah close with all of the stars in xem ⅋ these scars on xem .
      ❝ Thank you , ❞ Micah softly said to Ahri , xyr gaze meeting hers ⅋ everything in her shattered at the gleams across the eyes , tears bearing . Xyr grasp around her tightened . ❝ Thank you for being kind to me , Ahri . ❞
      Her heart ached deeply at the gratitude that xe didn't need to give , not when xe had only ever been kind to all . She wanted to ask what happened so she could tear everyone who laid a finger on Micah , DEVOUR / DEVOUR / DEVOUR ▬
      A feeble cry left Micah shaking terribly , broken apart into stardust .
      Ahri found it was not violence or vengance that xe needed . Xyr body shook ⅋ she saw it was begging to be held , to be loved still even after everything .
      She kept holding xem , reminding Micah that xe was still loved ▬
      She loved xem .
Tumblr media
 ◜ ⁺𝑰𝑽 . ◞ Micah stares at Ahri , their presences pressed against each other at her abode . Much time was taken for Micah to find xemself back to reality , to Ahri , ⅋ found calmness . Micah's hand held Ahri's , loved hand in loving hand .
      ❝ Most of what we have , the older ones , they came from our childhood , ❞ Micah quietly shares to her . Ahri didn't say anything , but the way she has been looking at xem , her gaze of sorrow asked xem everything . When Micah said , we , xe meant the Starwake System . She may not understand human health conditions that are as complex as Dissociative Identity Disorder , but even as sharp ⅋ stealthy Ahri is , a fear to man , xe trusted her more than enough to disclose xyr DID ▬ I am not one / I am one of the many / We exist so none of us could ever be all alone ever again ▬
      Micah doesn't say more . The word , childhood , said painfully enough . Xe gently guides Ahri's hand to touch xyr arm , most skin being burnt . Xe feels nothing when she touches this part , but the memories burn all deeply through xem . ❝ I did this to us when I was five years old , after I killed my latest foster family who did really bad things to us . . . ❞ Micah grimaces , but xe still lets Ahri hold xyr burnt arm . ❝ I can't remember why I did it . ❞ Maybe I did it because I wanted to know if this was all real ▬ if I was real enough , even in all of these white noises . Mama , I lived , raised by the ghosts in my head .
      ❝ There is no beauty found in this kind of survival , ❞ Micah echoes the words Ahri said to xem when they first met in that ethereal dream , xyr voice gentle . ❝ But we are still here , I am still here . I still love . ❞ ⅋ that has to mean more than shattered selves ⅋ faint shadows ⅋ dead dreams . Tears roll over Micah's cheeks , but xe doesn't stop speaking from the bottom of xyr celestial heart . Micah never stops trying to love . ❝ I want that to be good enough . ❞ I am trying everything in me to make my constant existence mean good enough .
      Micah softly smiles at @vulpesse ▬ despite , despite , DESPITE ▬ ❝ I am forever most grateful that I still exist so I could meet you . ❞ Xe leans further against her , head on shoulder . ❝ I love you , Ahri . ❞ This is a promise made by the endless brightest stars , gently given to the she - fox with sharp claws ⅋ wild eyes ⅋ sanguine teeth . This endless love of Micah's for Ahri , it does not flinch at the thousand raging suns in her wild heart .
      Her clawed hand in xyr burnt hand , love stayed , becoming home .

The Grand Palace was meant to inspire awe, the power and wealth of Ravka. With its imposing stone walls, marble statues, and expansive estate, it was to be the beating heart of the country. It was, as all else touched by the Tsar and his family, an over-expensive thorn draining resources and fulfilling the vanity of the noble families. The recent celebration marking the 30th year of the king's rule has all of the rich families and friends of the king invited for a week-long celebration.
Aleksander has to be there, a reminder of the darkness that is supposedly the very personal weapon of Ravka. A living example of what could be done to their enemies, and what keeps their borders safe. And if he had to suffer through the endless small talk, drinking, and debauchery. Who else to have by his side? The two of them stood out, drawing attention even though he mainly kept to the side, a bored look on his face, the golden threads in his black kefta shining under flickering lights.
“ Do you want to eat them? ” He murmurs almost affectionately, a quick glance to the women standing a few meters away from them. They fear him, but he can imagine what they are thinking. Something far more exciting than their husbands, something dangerous and fun. How completely wrong they were.
“ I think they might want me to drag them into one of the endless rooms in the palace, their imagination running wild. Do you want me to? ” He has no interest in them, and whether they live or die, is equally uninteresting. But if it would provide her with a bit of amusement, he might play along. An arm around her waist, long fingers splayed across her stomach, her back pressed to his front, head leaning forward, a lover’s embrace.

under  the  vast  ,  velvety  canopy  of  the  night  sky  ,  soft  brush  of  sand  sprinkled  over  the  bare  feet  with  each  step  taken  along  the  shore.  dark  boots  hanging  in  his  hand  and  the  other  reached  for  the  pirate's  hat.  placing  it  on  top  of  the  vulpeine's  dark  ,  raven  waves  of  locks.

his  face  upturned  toward  the  heavens  ,  his  gaze  fixed  on  the  multitude  of  stars  that  punctuated  the  darkness  above.  the  ambient  light  from  the  distant  stars  painted  his  features  in  a  soft  ,  ethereal  glow  ,  highlighting  the  contours  of  his  face  and  the  freckles  scattered  across  his  cheeks.  ❝  say  ,  have  ya'  ever  enjoyed  a  walk  along  the  beach  like  that  ahri  ?  ❞  his  voice  relaxed  ,  softly  rumbling  within  the  thick  throat  as  a  long  flame  with  a  snap  of  the  fire  fist's  digits  highlighting  the  way  in  the  darkness  around  ,  mixing  with  the  white  glow  of  the  moon  itself.

@vulpesse asked:
❛ there’s something tragic about you. ❜ ( for nimue ♡ )
Tumblr media
The words brought a soft, humorless laugh from the woman. It was an unexpected sound, even for Nimue herself. A hand rose and she raked it through her loose hair. "That's probably more true than either of us know." Tragic... a lack of memories, a tadpole, a sickness, dark thoughts... Tragic indeed.
"I'm working on being less tragic, but people like a tragic hero, don't they?" She was trying to be a hero. She could be a hero.
