HEARTBEAT

Hiii everyone who might be reading this! This is my first time writing fanfiction so if it seems a little messy or anything that's why :). I was inspired by the discord server I'm on to write this because everyones so talented. I tired my best so I hope yall enjoy!

Summary: Angtsy Abysswalker what if? I'm sorry if it's sad idk what I was on while writing it.

Word count: 1859

"I'm not gonna make it in time" I whisper to myself. I'm running through town trying to make it to the desert. My heart is racing and I'm on edge for what I'm about to do. After spending all that time with Rafayel, I've finally made up my mind and decided to go with what my heart wants the most.

"Rafayel! Wait!" I shout. I'm catching my breath as I struggle to run across the sand. Rafayel turns with a slight look of shock on his face. You were so focused on Rafayel that you didn't notice the other man standing next to him. You can just barely hear him whisper to Rafayel "I'll go on ahead, don't take too long," then he gets on his camel and rides away.

Finally, it's just you and Rafayel and you've never been so nervous before in your life. "Rafayel", you whisper. You reach out to him and your fingers graze his chin. Rafayel grabs your wrist and asks "What're you doing here? I thought.... you forgot about me..." he starts to trail off towards the end of his sentence to where you can just barely make out what he says. You look into his eyes and see that they're filled with sorrow. You know exactly what they're saying because you feel it too. There's a longing there that can never be satisfied unless we're together.

Your other hand reaches up and grabs his face. "There's something I need to say to you and I couldn't let you slip away". He lets go of your other wrist and your hand drops to grab his hand. "What is it, princess?" He says with a hopeful look in his eyes.

"I remembered. I remembered everything about you, about Lemuria and everything that's happened between us" You say.

Rafayel sucks in a quick breath and nuzzles his head into my hand. "Really?" He whispers. “Yes,” you whisper back. Next thing you know Rafayels arms are wrapped around you in a tender embrace.

“Do you know how long I've waited for you to say those words to me?” he says into my neck. You feel your heart break a little at his display of affection because it's only going to make things harder. You squeeze him back, wanting this moment to last forever. There's a desire there, it's like a piece of your heart has finally been put back into your chest. You can't help it, he smells like the sea. He smells like home. Finally, you pull away from him.

Rafayel says with a smile on his face “Sooo, does this mean you're coming back with me cutie? And abandon all these so called princess duties?” He's beaming. You've never seen him look so happy before.

You take a step back. There's a tinge of confusion in his face. He's not sure if he said something wrong. Everything has finally clicked into place for the two of you. “Rafayel…” you whisper. “What? What's wrong? Did I s-say something? Did I do something?” He stammers over his words. He looks panicked. I shouldn't prolong this any longer. “Rafayel, I can't go with you” you whisper. Your voice can barely be heard over the sound of your heart beating. “What're you talking about? Why else did you come here to see me silly? You said you remembered everything right? So what's the problem?” He rambles. He's nervous and keeps rambling but you can't hear him anymore.

“Rafaye,l” you say, interrupting him. He looks at you with a sad longing and eagerness waiting for what you're about to say next. “I need you to do something for me,” you say. “Wh-what is it” he asks with a worried chuckle. I hesitate a little before I say “I need you to take my heart, so you can bring Lemuria back”. Rafayel states at me with his mouth slightly ajar. He starts to shake his head as if he heard you wrong. “What are you talking about? Stop being so silly I'm not gonna do that.” he chuckles a little he thinks you're joking. You grab his hand and say “Rafayel please”. You look him in the eyes and he can see the determination in them.

He takes a step back cause he can't process the words you're saying to him. “Your people need you! It's been thousands of years and they're waiting for you! Think about your people, Rafayel!” You exclaim. “You don't think I know that!” He shakes his head. “You said you remembered everything about the past so you know what I've sacrificed for us to be together! We've been given a second chance and you just wanna throw it away! My people are gone. The sea god is gone. It's supposed to be you and me against the world now!” He says to me in desperation. There's a pleading in his eyes that I've never seen before. A longing that could last a thousand lifetimes.

“Rafayel” I take a deep breath before I continue. I knew this was gonna be hard but I've never seen him so angry and dejected before. “Rafayel, this is more than just us. You're people are what's important. Don't you wanna see Lemuria again?” He shakes his head again and takes a step back as he says “No, I won't do it. You know that once Lemurians are bound to their person it's their reason to live. If you're gone then what would become of me? I can't lead my people if I have no will to live. You're my inspiration, the air that I breathe. Without you, there's no reason for Lemuria to even exist. For me to exist.” Tears start to form in his eyes.

You bring your hand up and caress his face, wiping away a tear that started to fall. He leans into it and nuzzles his head into your hand. “Rafayel,” you say. A sadness, heavy in your heart. You struggle to say the next few words “I know that once a Lemurian bond, they can't go against the wishes of their mate”. You pull back your hand and hear a small gasp escape his lips. “I order you to take my heart and bring Lemuria back,” you say. Rafayel takes in a sudden breath and stills. “N-no” he stutters. “No! I can’t. I don't want to. Please don't make me” he begs you. Another tear falls down his face but this time you don't wipe it away.

Before you let him fully process his emotions, you pull out a blade that you kept tucked away in your boot. “Here, use this,” you say. You hold the blade out for him to cut your heart out with. He looks at you with confusion splattered on his face. He shakes his head a little, you can tell he's still processing what the situation is.

After a few heartbeats, he looks at you and says “This isn't how it was meant to be. I erased your memory but then you remembered and I was so happy.” He takes a step forward and knocks the blade out of your hand. He struggles as he does it because he's not supposed to go against your orders. “We can still leave together, it's not too late! Forget about Lemuria all I want is you! Please don't make me do this. Please please please.”

Tears start to form in your eyes. You have to get this over with soon before you get cold feet. You can't live with yourself if you let all of Lemuria stay lost forever because of your selfish desire to be with Rafayel. He falls to his knees and hugs your legs. “Please.” He says again. “Being with you is all I ever need in life. If we can't be together my heart will never be full and I'll be left longing for you for all of eternity. I love you with all my heart.” Your heart skips a beat. “Rafayel” you muster to say. “Get up”. He looks up at you and very slowly prys himself away from you until you're standing face to face. “I love you too, Rafayel,” you say to him.

A smile tugs at your lips and you go in for a hug. Rafayel wraps his arms around you and gives you the most affectionate hug you've ever been given. It's as if he never wants to let you go and stay in this moment forever. But you can't.

In one swift motion, you pull Rafayels blade that he keeps hidden on his belt and push him away. You stab yourself in the heart. You knew it'd be painful but the pain starts to numb quickly cause it's what was always meant to happen. You've dreamed about this once before but didn't realize you'd be the one to rip your own heart from your chest.

Rafayel surges forward to grab you as you fall to your knees. “My love, wh-why would you do this to me?” he says as his voice cracks. You can hear the pain and heartbreak in his voice. “I choose my own fate Rafayel” you cough a little. “I can't stand by while you let your people suffer any longer. They need you. Trust me when I say this doesn't come easy for me either.” Another cough and you let out a strained chuckle. You can feel Rafayel trembling under you. You can see he's trying to suppress his sobs. “we can ss-still get you h-help” he stutters and looks around. “No,” you say.

A strained smile spreads across your lips. You lift your hand to try and cup his cheek but struggle to do so. So Rafayel grasps it with one hand and pulls it towards his heart. “I will love you now and always no matter how much time has passed I will continue to long for you. Our bond will never be broken and I'll continue to search for you for a millenia if that's what it takes. I'm not sure what this means for us since you've given me back my heart but I'll find my way back to you no matter what” he says. You're barely conscious now but can feel his tears fall onto your face.

When did he start crying? You think to yourself. It's hard to tell what's real and not real as you start to fade away. Being separated from your soulmate is the worst pain you've felt in your whole existence but being in Rafayels arms in these final moments isn't so bad. After some time has passed with Rafayel holding you as you lay dying you finally muster the energy to say “We'll find each other again, I promise.”

Epilogue:

After some time has passed, Rafayel is able to bring Lemuria back from the dead. The Oceans are full and the people are happy but something is missing. It's almost as if it lacks the spark it once had.

The sea god spends most of his time away from the Lemurians and no one knows for sure why. Some say he's out there looking for his heart.

Thanks again for reading! It might not be the most accurate but I had fun while writing it. ❤️

I think next thursday is gonna be the best day of my entire life tbh

[dialcap]

the part of adulthood that nobody prepared me for was how some nights you’re like “yknow what? i’m in the mood to cook a full 12-course meal for myself” and other nights you’re like “tortilla chips are basically an entire meal it’s fine”

Bad: aliens that insist upon referring to human women as “feeeeemales”.

Good: aliens that insist upon dividing humans into binary categories, but the binary in question is based on something we’d regard as trivial and bizarre.

WHY DONT WE TALK ABOUT WAREHOUSE 13 MORE???

I mean seriously, its got everything this website always bitches about other shows missing.

Strong Female Leads (actually more female leads than males)

Important POC (one of which is actually in charge of the entire warehouse)

Openly homosexual character who is not just a token gay, or a stereotype in any way, and is written no differently than any other character except that he is gay.

An openly BISEXUAL character

Umong others are Artie who is Jewish, the Regents (Who are basically like the board of trustees in charge of making decisions) are all middle class, blue collar workers (because governments and rich corporations cant be trusted with that kind of power) There are no flat  characters, everyone is written extremely well. Even the antagonists can be sympathized with. and the “Good Guys” don’t always make good decisions. Everyone is a person, who makes both good and bad decisions, each character has their own personal motives and insecurities and internal battles to face that are ALWAYS PRESENT even when its not the central focus of the episode. (which is not always the case with TV shows).

everyone’s backstory is EXTREMELY detailed and well thought out, and that plays to their character’s insecurities and such.

And not to mention they totally say fuck you to gender roles.

Oh and mark Sheppard is in it too.

So yeah basically everyone needs to go watch warehouse 13 right now its a super amazing show and you will absolutely love it.

So I went to an art conference at my school. We discussed things there, like how colors can be very powerful and our subconscious picks up the subtlest of hints. Pixar’s UP was a very unforgettable example. The colors of UP had a lot to do with why we cried. You all know what I’m talking about, right??

Ellie’s death.

We were told that her color was pink. That’s why her hospital room had pinkish hue.

And the next scene had strong pink hues. He misses her. I think it’s got strong colors because of her personality.

Also, It’s like her presence is still lingering.

When he got home, only a small part of the frame (window on the right) has a pink hue as the sun is setting. By now, we know her presence is drifting away.

Mr. Fredricksen walks up the porch and goes into his house.

And when he shuts the door, the final frame looks like this:

Ellie is gone.

The entire frame is desaturated and cold because the warmth in Mr. Fredrickson’s life is gone.

And that’s another reason why this masterpiece is heart-wrenching. And that’s how powerful colors are in films.

I had this girl in my class and she was considered to be like really dumb. She’d ask a ton of doubts and questions in class, which everybody would consider to be “stupid"and “silly” and even the teachers would often taunt her but she’d never stop asking. But the thing was that she’d almost always top the class examinations and everyone was like???? They all thought she was cheating and stuff and obviously even the teachers were very biased because she wasn’t so ‘smart’ in class, and she was regularly accused of cheating. But nobody could prove that she was actually cheating but the whole class and teachers totally believed that she did. I’m pretty socially awkward so I never really talked to her, but she was leaving school this year and I was genuinely curious about how she was so good during exams and how she didn’t let everyone’s remarks affect her. She always used to sit and hang out with only one girl, and she told me that that friend of hers was severely socially anxious and she’d lag in studies because she couldn’t bring herself to ask doubts in class or ask for help from others. So they had this system where during lectures her friend would write down any question she had, and she would ask them for her. And I was just so touched??? Idk but it really changed the way I looked at people?? This girl endured taunts and jeers and borderline bullying for being “stupid” when she was actually really smart and could easily have refused to ask such doubts for her friend but she did?? And brushed off everything others would throw at her for her friend?? I was just, idk it just really changed me in some way.
