man I literally spent the entire day thinking about slow dancing with a potential lover at three am in the kitchen in pjs and bed hair with a nostalgic love song playing around the four walls of our apartment

The olive tree of Vouves, on Crete. This tree, which has a trunk 15 feet in diameter, is at least 2,000 years old, and likely 2,900 years old, based on the graveyard found nearby. This tree likely lived through the writing of the Iliad, the golden age of Athens, the rise of the Roman Empire, and the birth of Christ – and then lived for 2,000 years after that. It still produces olives, as well!

@copiesofher asked:  “ i’m fine. i’ve had worse. ” - from ... carwen?

❛  you  are  bleeding  heavily  from  a  wound  on  your  head  and  leg,  ❜   HIS  VOICE  IS  QUIET  AND  CONCERNED,  even  for  a  stranger  only  met  on  the  side  of  the  road.  with  no  carts  nearby  nor  town  to  rush  to  easily,  theo  felt  he  had  little  choice  but  to  stop  his  own  journey  and  help.  in  his  leather  satchel  holds  a  few  healing  potions,  make-shift  bandages,  water,  food,  and  two  amulets  belonging  to  mara  and  arkay  -  for  good  measure.   

❛  it  does  not  matter  to  me  if  you’ve  had  worse,  you  won’t  be  able  to  get  to  the  nearest  town  in  this  state.  let  me  help  you.  ❜

     It was as he had thought,  so there is no surprise to learn that he had been right. The other had in fact been the reason behind why the guard was lying on the floor. At least it wasn’t a trooper, so Anakin didn’t have the feeling of responsibility hanging over his head. Though at the same time he had hoped to fulfil this mission without any trouble so that the council might finally recognise his potential.

Anakin feels hypocritical to be the lawful one, seeing how he often did things his own way, but it just happens to be how the roles are divided between them. “As much as I wish it was plausible to take someone out because of the way they look at you, I know it isn’t.” This would be an interesting mission if it kept going this way. “Probably? How about unless they’re an actual threat you make that a promise?” He’s not angry, he’s more concerned that the outcome of this mission won’t be very successful.

     He watches as his companion props up the guard against the wall and makes a slight exasperated noise to himself. “Come on, let’s investigate.” Anakin holds his hand up and pushes open the door that the guard was protecting with use of the force.

HIS  RESIDING  THOUGHTS  ARE:  AT  LEAST  THEY’RE  NOT  DEAD.  in  anakin’s  defence  taking  out  someone  purely  because  they  looked  at  you  wrong  was,  indeed,  a  ridiculous  idea,  but  after  spending  so  long  in  the  midst  of  coruscant  undercity  watching  how  civilians  ended  up  in  the  gutter  for  much  less,  taking  out  a  guard  for  this  reason  alone  seemed  plausible.  

but  they  weren’t  in  the  undercity  anymore.  there’s  no  need  to  prove  ANY  strength  nor  is  anyone  going  to  give  two  looks  about  how  he  may,  or  may  not,  share  similarities  between  some  ancient  planet  which  was  destroyed.  it’s  time  theseus  faced  up  to  that,  because  he’s  not  come  across  anyone  who’s  brought  it  up  in  conversation  so  why  would  anyone  else   ------  and  that  includes  people  STARING  at  you  because  you  were  staring  intensely  first.  

to  help  skywalker.  THAT  was  the  mission.  not,  get  into  trouble  as  soon  as  you  arrive  somewhere  alongside  skywalker.  sometimes  he  wonders  how  the  jedi  council  still  seek  for  his  help  in  such  matters.   ❛  fine,  but  if  we  do  encounter  trouble  i’m  going  to  be  seriously  upset  if  i  do  not  get  to  throw  them  over  the  bar  counter  downstairs.  ❜  he  lightly  jokes,  any  evidence  of  frustration  or  secrecy  gone  within  an  instance.  theo’s  back  is  turned  as  anakin  makes  way  into  the  room  so  doesn’t  notice  anything  at  first  ;  there’s  a  few  pats  on  the  unconscious  man’s  shoulder  before  swiftly  moving  into  the  room.

IT’S  QUIET.  TOO  QUIET.  for  a  room  to  be  guarded  by  someone  from  the  planet’s  royal  military  there  was  some  thinking  that  something,  or  someone,  would  be  occupying  this  room  ;  but  there’s  nothing.  no  lifeforms,  no  secret  weird  object,  nothing  out  of  the  usual  except  for  the  nagging  feeling  that  something  felt  WRONG.   ❛  this  is...  bizarre.  what  was  the  reason  you  were  assigned  to  this  mission  again,  general  ?  because  i  truly  doubt  it’s  to  secure  an  empty  room.  ❜

Fighting or Sparring: Sentence Starters

(a mix, for either a serious fight or a friendly spar)

“Fine, I accept your challange!”

“Sorry but I won’t take it easy, not even with you.”

“There will be no mercy.“

“Power without idea isn’t justice.“

“Just give up already.”

“You know what will happen if you lose…”

“What?! B-but, how?!”

“I have awaited this day, for too long.”

“Is there no other way?“

“Go ahead and struggle!”

“Over already?“

“Do you want to die that badly?“

“Hm? I guess that was too much…“

“Don’t push yourself. Training will do no good with a broken limb.”

“Is something distracting you?”

“You’ve got some guts… for a fool.“

“Is this the best you can do?”

“I’ll play with you for a little while.“

“You haven’t progressed at all. Focus.”

“Damn… I messed up.“

“You keep slipping up. You’re making easy mistakes.”

“It’s training now, but soon it could be a life or death situation.”

“Nothing will come of hate.“

“You can’t fight this with strength alone.”

“You’re wasting my time.”

“You still have a lot to learn.”

“That’s two out of three that I’ve gotten the upper hand.”

“You need to take this more seriously!”

“You’re still too weak.”

“Beg for mercy before me!“

“I didn’t mean to hurt you…”

“Kneel before me.”

“There won’t be anything left of you when I’m done.”

“I’ll make you regret ever crossing me.”

“Know your place.”

“You and me. Let’s go.”

“A fight with me is too dangerous.”

“You don’t know what you’re getting into.”

“Fine, you asked for it.”

“This should be easy.”

“So, you wanna fight?”

“Just to let you know, I’ve never lost a fight.”

“This is the end for you!”

“Feisty one, eh? Not bad.”

“Not bad, but you can do better.”

“I’m not here to play with you.”

“I’ve got you pinned.”

“You could hardly stand, it’s over.”

“There, are you satisfied now?”

“You really thought you could win? How cute.“

“This place, will be your grave.”

“Your suffering will be over in a moment.”

“Did you really expect me, to yield to the likes of you?”

“Mark my words… I will kill you and I’ll be after your friends next.”

“Hmph. You don’t change much, do you?“

“You’re too impulsive… it’s reckless.”

“I’ll wipe that grin off your face.”

“Defeat me and ‘maybe’ I’ll tell you where your friend is.”

“It wasn’t a question, you need to take a break. We’ve been going at it for hours.”

“I’m telling you, there’s no chance of you beating me.”

“Look dollface, I don’t have time to play.”

“Just cause you’re cute, I’ll take it easy on you.”

“I’ll fight with one hand behind my back, see? Swing away.”

“You’re really cute when you’re mad.”

“Good, you’re holding up well.”

“Don’t get distracted, not even for a moment. Don’t avert your eyes.”

“Push yourself beyond your limits.”

“Your shoulders are tense. Don’t overthink it. Loosen up.”

“Feel like running away?”

“You’re too timid, it’s easy to see you as a target.”

“They’re not always going to be around to babysit you.”

“You’re going to die here, and easily.”
