"Don't patronise me, when was the last time you read anything I wrote?"

She's not sulking. It is but a trick of the light. The archon considered her options, delaying her response for a few precious seconds more by taking a measured sip of her tea. Either way, her familiar wasn't the type to give up on her pursuits easily. Even if Ei turns down her request, there is very little doubt that Miko would still be able to find some way to rope her into things again.

"Assuming I agreed to write something, what should I even write about?"

Ah, her dearest Raiden Shogun. Yae Miko truly adored her straightforwardness and what she swore was a lack of understanding of more shrewd tactics. It truly made Ei the most endearing archon should could ever ask for.

"Come now, don't be so modest, I'm sure you writing is superb." Or good enough to trick people into getting very excited for the contest.

Though she supposed that Ei didn't even have to be a good writer in the first place because people would simply show up for the opportunity to receive any kind of "gift" from her.

"Besides, think of it more so as spending time among the people. You don't necessarily have to be perfect." Or good for that matter.

Did she just fall asleep while standing? Why yes, absolutely.

The launcher gun Natasha carries is inspired by her past as a field medic, where she learned to operate the weapon from afar, shadowing the frontline soldiers as well as her brother Vache, who was amidst the medic team.

The idea of utilising it came through her observations during clashes with fragmentum monsters: In order to lower the amount of casualties, something needs to be done to buy time for those wounded until they return to base. And it has to help as many people as possible.

What follows is a constant refinement of the process: finding the best vantage position to launch the healing agent through the air for better coverage, the right range, the right storage material, etc.

As a result, Natasha spent years lugging around 8 kg loaded launchers in battle. She continues to do so even after she'd set up her clinic in Boulder Town, where skirmishes between miners as well as fragmentum monster attacks were plenty.

With constant practise lugging it around as well as manhandling unruly patients, Natasha unwittingly ended up bolstering both her stamina as well as overall strength. She has the knowledge to subdue/restrain her opponents both medically but also physically despite her unassumingly gentle demeanour.

EG: She has the medical expertise to know the right angle to hit/jab/punch to knock someone out in a single blow (and she has the strength to make it happen)

This has earned her quite the reputation as being someone you shouldn't mess with in the Underworld.

While Natasha doesn't particularly enjoy thinking about her days as a field medic, she is ultimately grateful for how it has shaped her determination and skillset.

Surprise smoothed out some of the weariness in Natasha’s features when he drew close enough to touch. An inexplicable bashfulness gave her pause in her duties and put her at a loss for words.

That was until he poked her playfully on the tip of her nose, prompting the doctor to huff out a laugh and bat the offending finger away, fondly exasperated with his antics.

"Good luck building your case," the wildfire doctor replies cheekily. "You've got no evidence on me."

When Sampo questioned what was needed, Natasha pretends to hum thoughtfully before she finally revealed her true masterplan.

"What I need is for you to help me bake some cookies. If you behave, I'll even let you sneak some of the decorations for yourself."

[AND ILY!!!!! I really like the level of detail and energy you place into Tem. It's amazing just seeing how you mesh them into events, storylines and verses in a very natural/realistic way!]

“Attached to it already, are you?” That’s quick. Even for her. “You’re growing sentimental.” 

His remark, although kept relatively light, held the edge of caution. A reminder. The trappings of emotion never did any of them well. 

“The citadel’s hardly the best place for your fawn to be running around it. Where’d you even ‘release’ it if you wanted to?”

@memovia

＜✾＞― The ways of Da-ji truly amused her. Did he say he could reabsorb it? ...Just like that? Eyebrows furrowed at the thought of it disappearing. No, that would not do... she had just started to bond with this little fawn. Its cuteness was really growing on her the more she looked at it, just like a certain someone.

❝ No— that is quite alright, thank you. ❞

A restless hand comes up to support her chin as she watches it from afar.

❝ I can't let you take it away, now that it's mine... I'll let it run free. It's life is now it's own. ❞

Life was always so busy for both of them - Wise with running the store and his work as a Proxy, Cedric with his music career and having to raise his younger siblings - but it was quiet moments like this together later in the evenings that made all of the hard work worthwhile. They'd simply been watching a movie together in Wise's room, Cedric's siblings being watched over by Belle, sharing a blanket and whatever snacks they felt like, but unlike before ... The singer's arm remained comfortably around his dear Proxy's shoulders, keeping the other close to his side.

Eyes eventually trailed toward his beloved during a quieter part of the movie, soft smile on his features as he eventually leaned over to press a kiss against Wise's temple, lingering for a few moments before simply resting their heads together. In that moment, the movie was hardly Cedric's concern - all he wanted was to enjoy the closeness they were able to share.

Never before in his life had he expected that things would turn out this way and that he'd end up dating the same person who'd been the star feature of his dreams for months. Even now it seems too good to be true sometimes.

But suffice to say, present Wise can't be more content with it all. It's nice to be able to surround himself with family during the day and unwind together with his boyfriend (boyfriend!!) in the evening.

Turquoise eyes shifted their gaze away from the television screen to rest their attention on Cedric, briefly closing when a kiss is pressed to his temple. A soft smile. Contentment yields a quiet sigh and the Proxy slides both his arms around Cedric's shoulders, tilting his head just a little more to brush their lips together in a tender expression of affection.

" coooome on,"

Belle would pout childishly as she pressed her cheek against the sofa. Blue hair falling around her face in a messy manner as she huffed.

" it's your turn to go pick up the videos this time wise, I always pick up the movies~"

"Again? I picked them up the last two times, remember?" Aw man. And here he was looking forward to binging a weekend's worth of arthouse films and documentaries...

"Tell you what. How about we both go pick it up and I treat you to bubble tea? That way, it'll be done faster." @dvotdovetre

[grislyintentions]

clorinde, when you kiss basil, does it feel like you're drinking water or something?

"No comment." What does she look like, anon? An dishonourable woman who kisses and tells?

"...I'm not sure if I should feel flattered that you think people will actually pay money to watch movies with me or suspicious that you're doing it to avoid having to watch shows with me."

@shrineofprophecy

"Brother @grislyintentions, I spy a new business model. Rather than just renting tapes, we can rent you as a watch partner so no one has to watch movies by themselves!"

[grislyintentions]

"Would making the pudding yourself resolve the issue for you?"
