#21 pilots drabbles

[thekadster]

cliquetober day 21 & 22: pen/harpoon & sign (a twenty one pilots drabble)

Fandom: Twenty One Pilots

Word Count: 500

Trigger Warnings: None!

Author’s Notes:  Again, I realize that this is thematically similar to what I posted for Day 8 KJDSHFG One of the alternative ideas I had for this was Tyler and Josh making missing person signs for Ned and posting them around town xD

❝ The pen was an instrument of freedom, one that Tyler knew how to handle well.

But now, who was it pointed at?❞

also read it on ao3!

Time couldn't go by any slower.

Tyler's fingers drummed on the table, half out of thought and half out of impatience. The silence of the room was supposed to help him focus, but he hadn't written a single line. He could almost feel the blank page staring back at him disapprovingly.

As he fiddled with the pen in between his fingers, he thought it was strange. It had been ages since he last held one, and while in his cell, all he dreamt about was creating. He missed the way music sounded like, felt like. It was a friend, a lover, taking him by the hand to who knows where.

Taking him anywhere, anywhere that wasn't DEMA.

And yet, the Bishops themselves granted him the ability to create. He thought that maybe he was going crazy from the isolation. Maybe they found joy in giving him false hope. But no; they instructed him and Josh to make music. For the good of the citizens, they always said.

They gave him what he needed, desk and all. But try as he might, the words stopped at the tip of his tongue. His mind was grasping for something that was only almost there.

Josh sat in a chair next to him. He’d seen Tyler create before. He knew that, if they could, they would make songs tearing down the very foundations of vialism itself. They would expose the lies of this city and open the people’s eyes to the world beyond its walls. That the world outside was dangerous, but it was alive – the one thing that DEMA was not.

But they couldn’t do that, not here. Not while the Bishops watched from the back of the room.

The pen was an instrument of freedom. It was its own form of magic, breathing visions into reality. It was a harpoon that could shoot down the mightiest of beasts, a weapon that Tyler knew how to handle well.

But now, who was it pointed at?

Still, they pushed through it. They wrote lyrics, made melodies, eventually creating a scaled back, isolated parody of the music they really meant to write. It felt painful watching the Bishops take their writing at the end of each session; to even have to look for their approval in every detail.

But as the album was completed, they knew all their effort wasn’t for nothing. They knew the Bishops were watching, but so were the Banditos. The rebels were everywhere, not just in the mountains but also in the city itself. Tyler and Josh just hoped they hadn’t given in yet, that they still remembered the Torchbearer’s plan.

And they knew that somehow, someway, it would work. The album would serve as a sign of hope, of life, of freedom. No matter what the Bishops did, they were confident that their kind would understand.

This city hadn’t gotten the best of them yet, and the fact that they were still creating was a sign that it never will.

☆Simp's Masterlist☆

I specialize in fluff, hurt/comfort and (strangers to) friends to lovers! Basically my fics are 90% fluff and relationship building, and just a tad bit of angst for the feels~

Code:

⛓Angst

🌸Fluff

🌹Romantic

🍡Platonic

(🌹/🍡 can be seen as either)

Note: some stories have all of the above, so the order of the emoji is the same as the order in the story. For example: 🌸🍡🌹⛓ starts fluffy and platonic, ends with romantic feelings and angst.

Most of my fics are gender-neutral, They/Them pronouns used! I'm much more comfortable writing gender-neutral and male readers for personal reasons ww

Love ya'll <3

Selfish

Pairing: Tyler Joseph x Reader

Warnings: Angst

Word Count: 1351

Request: Selfish - Asia Cruise song imagine to Josh or Tyler?? please?! -Anon

Author’s Note: This one is based on a song, obviously. You can listen to it here and the lyrics are here. I hope you guys like it!

You checked the time again. It was now eleven, five hours after Tyler said that he was going to come home so that the two of you could go out to dinner together. He had spent most of the day at an event, promoting the upcoming album with Josh. He had told you that he wouldn’t be gone for more than a few hours, but evidently that wasn’t the case.

The front door swung open and Tyler stepped inside, closing the door softly behind him. You sat up to look at him, crossing your arms while you did so. Your hair was still done and you hadn’t bothered to change out of your nice clothes yet in the hopes he would still get home in time for you two to get dinner.

“Look who finally decided to come home,” you said, not even bothering to hear his side of the story.

“I got caught up talking with important people,” he retorted.

“Did you remember that we had dinner plans tonight?”

“Yeah.”

“So what? You were just going to let me wait for you all night?”

“Like I said, I got caught up with important people. I didn’t know how long it was going to take.”

“You were gone for five extra hours, Tyler! Were they really more important than the dinner plans that we’ve had for weeks?”

“Considering I’ve had this event on the calendar for months, I would say that trumps the dinner plans.”

You sighed and pushed your hair back from your face. The two of you had been like this for months now: fighting constantly about even the smallest of things. Tyler kept putting everything else above you, and both of you refused to be wrong. You were finally reaching your breaking point.

“So are you just done caring about me?” you finally snapped.

Tyler turned to you with a look of total confusion on his face, “Where did you get that idea?”

“Don’t act like it isn’t obvious. Recently it’s been all about your music, even if that’s at my expense.”

“Of course it’s been all about my music recently, Y/N, it’s my career.”

“I understand that, but it seems like you’re just doing your own thing and not letting me in on any of it. We’re in a relationship, you know, and that requires just as much effort as a career.”

“We’ve been dating for over two years, do we really still need to go on dates?”

You had tried to avoid raising your voice up until this point, but with Tyler’s comments it was getting increasingly difficult. As much as you didn’t want to turn this into a screaming match, it seemed like that was the way it was going.

“Yes we need to go on dates! I can’t believe you even had to ask that.”

“I don’t understand you, Y/N. You say you want me to live me dreams and then you tell me that I don’t care about you at all.”

“I do want you to live your dreams, Tyler. But when living your dreams becomes skipping out on plans and then blaming me for getting mad, it starts to seem like you only care about yourself.”

“You know that isn’t true.”

“Do I? Because every time you upset me, you never apologize no matter how badly you hurt me.”

“That’s because it’s never my fault.”

“This is exactly what I’m talking about! You never listen! That’s it. I’m done.”

You got up from the couch and stormed towards the stairs.

“What do you mean you’re done? With this conversation?”

You stopped at the bottom of the stairs and turned to face him, “No. I’m done with this relationship,” you hissed.

“Where are you going to go?” he called after you.

“Doesn’t matter,” you answered as you stomped up the stairs.

You walked into the closet and began to pull all of your clothes out. Tyler followed you upstairs and leaned against the doorframe, watching as you threw one thing after another onto the growing pile.

“You’re really serious about this?” he asked.

“Yes, I’m serious. I don’t joke about these things, Tyler.”

“You’re really going to throw away our entire relationship because I came home late?”

“This is exactly my issue with you! You think this fight is only because of what happened tonight but it isn’t. You’re just proving my point that you’re selfish and don’t listen to a thing I say. That’s why I’m ending the relationship.”

Tyler sighed. It was evident that he didn’t agree with what you were saying, despite the fact that you had repeated your point numerous times.

“I just don’t get it, Y/N.”

“I know you don’t.”

You looked over the closet one more time to make sure that you had gotten all of your clothes. Tyler watched as you picked up the pile and pushed past him into the bedroom.

“Really, Y/N, where are you going to go?”

“What has made you suddenly start caring? Has the guilt of how you treated me started to sink in already?”

“I just don’t want you to be in danger.”

“Yeah, right. You just don’t want to be marked responsible if something happens to me. I know how you are, Tyler.”

You had to stand on your toes to get your suitcase down from the top shelf of the closet. Normally you would ask Tyler for help, but you weren’t really in a position to do that right now. He watched as you nearly dropped the bag directly onto your face.

“That’s not the case.”

“Can you just shut up for five minutes? I’ve made up my mind and I’m leaving. Pretending like you suddenly care isn’t going to change that, alright?”

You picked up your phone and sent a text to your friend. If you remembered correctly, she was in the city for a convention and would most likely have a hotel room. That would get you through the night, at least.

“Whatever you say,” he grumbled before walking out of the room.

You were relieved to finally be alone. All you wanted to focus on was packing up your things and getting out of the house as soon as possible. The reality of the situation would hit you soon enough, and you didn’t want to be around Tyler when that inevitably happened.

It took you about forty-five minutes to fully pack up your things. Tyler hadn’t bothered you again during that time, having finally taken the hint that you were done talking about the situation. You had somehow managed to fit everything into three suitcases, which you knew was going to be a pain to get down the stairs.

Tyler was on the couch watching TV downstairs. You tried to be as quiet as possible as you carried your suitcases down the stairs, more because you didn’t want him to see you struggling than you trying to be sneaky. He must have still heard you, because he turned to look at you when you were about halfway down the stairs.

“Done already?”

“I only had to pack my clothes and a few other things with sentimental value.”

“What about everything else?”

“Keep it. You bought most of it anyway.”

“If you say so.”

You wheeled your things over towards the door. Tyler didn’t get up to help, although you hadn’t really expected him to.

You paused before you walked out the front door, “I’m sorry this is what it came to.”

“Yeah, I’m sorry too.”

You nodded before stepping outside, suitcases in tow, and closing the front door. It felt weird to hear an actual apology come out of Tyler’s mouth, but at least you had been able to hear him say it once. It helped to lessen the pain a bit.

You threw your suitcases in the back of your car before hopping in the front seat. Your friend had texted saying that she had a couch in her hotel room for you to sleep on, so that’s where you were heading.

It was time to do things your way.

[who-tf-stole-my-car-radio]

Imagine:

“Hey josh , (y/n) just called me she’ll be here in a few minutes she’s running late” Tyler says as he walks into the living room. Josh smiles at the thought of you, and Tyler notices.

“Josh..are you...blushing?” He questions, a sly smile curving his lips.

“What? No what are you talking about?” Josh replies trying to brush it off, but he indeed was blushing and the pink shade of his cheeks was difficult to hide on his alabaster skin.

“You like her!” Tyler exclaims pointing at josh accusingly before breaking out into a giggle.

“I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! HA me and Jenna had a bet , I win. She owes me 20 bucks” he continues pulling out his phone , presumably to text Jenna.

As much as josh didn’t want to believe it he did like you, more than a friend, more than a co-worker , he didn’t know when his feelings for you began but he never wanted them to end.

Heaven's Demons Master List

Andy Barber is not only the proud president of The Heaven’s Demons, but also the owner of Barbers, the only bar in town.  The former ex-marine wears many hats, one of which is also as a single father to a rambunctious little five-year-old girl, Amelia.   

Lee Bodecker is the quiet vice president and sheriff of the small town where The Heaven’s Demons are based out of, making sure that their less than legal activities stay off of the federal government’s radar. 

Ari Levinson is the secretary, and man with a plan.  Also ex-military, a former Mossadi agent, he always has plans A through Z sorted and filed away while maintaining innocent cover as ‘just an accountant’. 

Jefferson is the sergeant at arms, or better known as the enforcer.  He may not be the biggest guy, but there’s a reason that the mad hatter has a secondary nickname of The Butcher. 

And of course, who could forget the other members:

Thor Odinson, former airmen and the bar’s bouncer with a heart of gold.

Sam Wilson, the true north and logical man of the group, and bar manager of Barbers.

Lucas Lee, resident bad boy of the crew with a pair of twins.

Jake Jensen, ex special forces and one of the current bartenders at Barbers.

Charles Blackwood, former airman pilot and charmer of all women.

And of course, their prospect, Johnny Storm, the barback at Barbers. 

But this isn’t about any of the men in the Heaven’s Demons Motorcycle Club.  No, this is about their women and how they fell in love with them. 

Warnings: Will be posted at the beginning of every chapter. Will contain dark themes, murder, violence, gun running, alcohol, mentions smut, etc.

[tsarisfanfiction]

From the random prompt generator:

There is definitely a theme, but the first one is Stabbed and Space Ship. Guess a bit of John since I already threw stabbed and Alan out there...

Sacrifice

Fandom: Thunderbirds Rating: Teen Genre: Angst Characters: John

Ooh, John in the firing line?  Also, you and Nutty need to stop getting me to play with knives.  Boys get hurt when I get stabbity!  (mostly Scott but apparently it’s John’s turn, unless Scott appears anyway... we’ll see.  I think he’s in hiding at the moment!)

Okay, so... there was a stabbed?  And a space ship?  I have no idea what else this thing is doing through, and how it managed to end up kinda Scott-centric when he doesn’t even appear once?  Actually, this seems a little like my fic Phobos, maybe.

Last time I did a load of ‘drabbles’, I ended up publishing a lot at once and kinda clogging dashes and tags and stuff, so this time around I’m going to remember the ‘queue’ function exists and start using that so they’ll spit out a few a day rather than all at once!  This one’s posted live, but chances are the others won’t be.

Spin the wheel of whump and give me a character!

Thunderbird Three.  Of all the Thunderbirds, John privately thought that the big red rocket was their father’s favourite.  The TV-21 might have been his pride and joy, but the freedom to blast off into space, go wherever he wanted, see whatever he wanted...  Jeff Tracy was a Colonel, a pilot, but he was also an astronaut, and once you were an astronaut, you were always an astronaut.

John couldn’t imagine leaving space for the final time, stumbling back into Earth, with all its gravity and noise and people and knowing that he’d never leave again. Trapped.

It was bad enough that he was currently based on Earth, Alan still too young to take up the mantle no matter how much he tried the puppy dog eyes on Scott.  Still too young to realise that the puppy dog eyes weren’t always the way to get biggest brother wrapped around your little finger, and that while it might get him anything else from Scott, it wouldn’t get him a red rocket.  Alan’s puppy dog eyes reminded Scott how young he was.  How young they all were.

John remembered the arguments when Gordon forced his way in, fresh out of rehab and determined to make a difference with what was left of his life.  Clashing with Scott, who wanted nothing more than to bundle him up in cotton wool and keep him safe, despite being the one that supported him into WASP in the first place.  Or maybe because of it, some big brother guilt at play, because Scott was all too good at that.

That big brother guilt was going to make an appearance again very soon.  John hadn’t wanted to leave Five to pilot Three until Alan was ready.  Had suggested Kayo, Scott himself, but Kayo was too young (her snarls when Gordon had barged his way into IR and she’d been left behind were one of the most terrifying noises John had ever heard - Scott in all his fearlessness had turned his back and walked away) and Scott couldn’t leave Alan.  Couldn’t leave Gordon, couldn’t quite put enough trust into Virgil because no matter how reliable he was, he was still a younger brother, young enough to be Protected, rather than Protector.

John was the only one he trusted to launch into space.  John was the best and a compliment like that from Scott wasn’t supposed to hurt so much.  But it had, and it did, because it meant Dad’s gone but also because it was an excuse.

Scott couldn’t go because the last time he’d left them, head held high and proud, he’d come back broken.  It had nothing to do with them, and everything to do with whatever he’d never said about Bereznik.  About being alone.  Scott smothered them not because they needed it, but because if he didn’t aggressively keep them all under his wing, he’d shatter.

So here John was.  The sacrifice, to keep his big brother together and Dad’s dream alive, and he’d never felt more like one than now, because there was a knife through his suit and he was curled up in the zero-g of Thunderbird Three’s cockpit, gasping for air after grappling his way back through the vacuum with a compromised suit and the age-old warning don’t hold your breath or your lungs’ll explode running through his head.

Alone.  Scott on that blue and green marble, because he couldn’t bring himself to leave the rest of his brothers so far behind, out of reach.  Blood running down his leg, mission absolutely failed because he wasn’t rescuing knife-wielding madmen who wanted him dead and hitting his family with another tragedy.

Scott was going to be beside himself.  He might even pull out of space rescues, trap John on Earth where it was safe.  John couldn’t let that happen, couldn’t imagine living out the rest of his life on that marble of gravity and noise and crowds.

But what was his alternative?  Bleed to death out here?  All alone, disappearing just like Dad because Thunderbird Three was their only space rocket?  A space burial didn’t sound so bad, never trapped on Earth ever again, and maybe one day John would choose that, but not today.

He grit his teeth, fastened a tourniquet around his leg, and dragged himself into the pilot seat to go home.  Home, to a frantically terrified big brother who still needed him.

Memories of Another.

Noémie Durand: It is an unexpected, but welcome surprise to see you here Lady Haldus.

Ostia Haldus: Was not really my plan either, but I was given not many alternatives. Though I have to say your people are,,, a welcome surprise too.

Noémie: Haha! Karseilles is quite an outsider compared to much of the Imperium, but we're slowly making way in communicating with them.

Ostia: I've heard that you were,, quite new to being a leader. Some even called you the Young Queen, though I could not tell if they were making a jab at you or using a casual title.

Noémie: Aaaah. Well, compared to many previous Grand Dame and Seigneur, I have not ruled for many years, nor has my Family been in major powers for any great period of time. I've ruled only some,, 84 years now, come winter.

Ostia: Wait. Wait wait, you've been Queen for 80+ years? But you are also a Scion, are you not? How long ha-?

Noémie: I have been bonded to Dominion for 104 years, 8 months and 21 days. I,, I am not allowed to forget this. I was training to be a Scion, and to be the next head of my Family. Never did I see the day that the entire Lyonesse Dynasty to die in a short 8 months.

Ostia: That sounds a little,, too exact.

Noémie: Dominion is,, ancient. They hold the memories of hundreds within themselves. And those memories are becoming my own, with time. And when I pass, my own memories will become theirs, for the next Scion to bear. I'm the youngest to pilot themz and the youngest to rule these people.

Ostia: ,,,, all the memories?

Noémie: Not all, I've trained for years to be able to not delve too deep into Dominion when I pilot them,, but some days, I am no longer Noémie. I'm another Scion, maybe from Durand, maybe from another Family. Their victories, their aspirations,, their deaths.

Ostia: May I ask a personal question? How do you,, how do you handle that burden?

Noémie: Burden? Hmmm, I guess I used to think of it as a burden. But that was a long time ago. Now, heh, c'est la vie. But I think what you're actually asking,, is how do you deal with the memories of another, and keep yourself here. My dear Haldus, see these as dreams. Dreams of your past lives, how you made mistakes and learned from them, those you loved and killed. They will hurt, but they are of the past lives, and will not kill you. They will embolden you, protect you from making the same mistake as they once did.

(Ostia Haldus belongs to @rowscara , and Noémie Durand is mine.)

Adamantium Striders

House Chevalier, Vassal state to the Kingdom of Midgård. These men and women of Karseilles follow the ancient dogma of their predecessors, known to Ministorium Scholars as the Imperial Truth, a doctrine used during the era of The Great Crusade some 10 millennia ago.

To the field of war, House Chevalier brings ancient and highly trained Knights, bipedal goliaths clad in heavy armor plating and high power tank weaponry short of being classified as Titan weaponry. Though due to old wounds, Chevalier does not sport hundreds of these revered Knights.

Only 35 remain in any operational capacity, most were lost during a time called "The Darkest Decades", when Chevalier and Midgård held against the tide of Tyranids of Hivefleet Moloch. Slowly this wound has begun to heal, as the forges on Karseilles and its moons work stubbornly to rebuild those Knight which would be salvaged,, and make entire new ones from scratch.

Grand Dame Noémie Durand is the current ruler of Karseilles, as well as the head of her House. Though her rise to power was not one she had aimed for, her House was simply the one to inherit the mantle fallen from House Lyonesse who all perished in The Darkest Decades. She had only been training as a Scion of her House, to rule when her time came for her own Dynasty,, not the entire Kingdom of Kareilles. She has much to learn about ruling an entire people, and seeks much wisdom and advice from those in power, she has long talks with High King Surtr Muspelson of Midgård for his rule stretches into the millennia.

But tis not just her Dynasty who take to the field, they cannot afford such a bold tactic anymore. She is joined by many other Dynasties who, although, bear the banner of House Chevalier, are clad in their own Dynasty colors and heraldry.

The Karon Dynasty, the Moreau Dynasty and the de-Galle Dynasty are the other families whom fight alongside Durand when Karseilles goes to war.

Karon and Moreau are also two of the four families who have Monarche pattern Knights in their arsenal, the only other being Durand. de-Galle may not have any such pattern in their hangers, however they are the ones who pilot "Les Montagnes Jumelles" or the "Twin Mountains"; a pair of Acastus Pattern Knights wielding the dreaded Mortcœur cannons, a variant of the Hellhammer weaponry.

The more prominent members of these families are the following;

Marquis Jean Corsica Karon, second eldest son of the Karon Dynasty. The Karon are responsible for maintaining the small fleet that Karseilles owns, mainly used for trading with Midgård or Rogue Traders,. They also have control over the lone Space Port, thus having their fingers in all trades and travel. Jean's older brother André may be the next in line to the family throne, but it was Jean who able to bond with the Monarche pattern Knight, "Endless".

Vicomte Gastonne Henreique Moreau, eldest eligible successor to the Moreau Dynasty. The Moreaus have dominance over the budding agricultural and lumber industry which encompasses the southern continents on Karseilles, which feeds the growing population (and some curious eaters in the Midgård Kingdom). The current head of house, Dame Florence, lost her children during The Darkest Decades, thus her Sister's son will be the one to inherit the throne when the day comes. Gastonne, previously one of the overseers responsible for the second largest Blackwood Oak Orchard, was bonded to a Warden pattern Knight, "Chauchat's Roar"

Duchesse Anne de-Galle, eldest daughter of the de-Galle Dynasty. The de-Galle have always been under suspicion due to their repeated attempts to defame the Durand family, and upset the balance of powers on Karseilles. However, Anne seems to be more amicable and willing to work alongside the other Dynasties. Many suspect that Anne is a direct descendant to the founder of the family, a venerated commander within the Solar Auxilia during the time of The Great Crusade, though no proof has been found as of yet. Anne is bonded to one of the Twins, "Blanc Épée" her sister Yvonne pilots "Arqalod Épée"

(Also,, henlo @rowscara have some folks, bois and gals. I will try and find the ones talking bout the Knights and ping you)

Ghosts in the Machine Spirit

(Tagging @rowscara because muahahaha)

A gripping numbness encased Ostia's body, soaked through her clothes and bodysuit beneath, like hoarfrost clinging to diaglass panes. Groggy unfocused eyes gazed somewhere and nowhere at once, as her mind was slowly coming back to the present.

Where was she? Her bloodshot weary eyes slowly moved, taking in the dreary grayscale place she found herself in. Nothing. Just an infinite emptiness that went into forever, save for the ankle deep icy water the reflected the inky blackness. So cold and tired was Ostia that she barely registered the water soaked into her hair and clothes, but stiffly did she sit up.

"This,,, is a dream? It is,, different." Ostia's throat felt like she swallowed coarse sand paper and cotton wads, clogged up and hoarse. Coughing to try and clear her throat, the Scion looks around once more to try and find something to help snap herself back to reality.

[Tia]

Ostia felt her heart skip a few beats, flailing as she tries to get up on her feet in a scrambling mess of soaked clothes and clawing hands. Whipping her head about, eyes wide as for the briefest moment could have heard her sister's voice. "Wait,, wha, how. No, its a dream, quiet yo-" but her voice catches in her mouth, as Ostia catches a terrifying vision only some meters away.

Lucelle. Her elder sister, who she has not seen in oh so long, clad in her favorite dress she had gotten at the fair. Though,, she appeared like a phantom of pale eerie lights, Ostia able to see through the woman at the darkness behind.

Either Ostia had been dosed with so much chems by some Imperial Medic, Warden truly playing a cruel trick on her sleeping mind, or a combination of the two.

[Oh sister, truly it is a dark day indeed,, if you are afraid of me, Little Tia.]

"Stop. Stop,, talking in her voice. G-Get out of my head Warden!" Ostia clutched at her head, fingers clawing through her matted hair, shaking her head about to try and clear out what she was hearing. Scrunching her eyes closed tight, having some false hope that she would soon wake up inside the cockpit of Warden, and able to yank out every damned cable from the accursed Knight.

[You wear the Haldus colors well,, even though you were never destined for them.]

Ostia can feel tears creeping down her cheeks, the voice and tone of this apparition oh so natural sounding, why does Warden torment her so?

"Stop, stop, stop, Stop!"

[Ostia. Pull yourself together, or I will tell Jorick that it was you who stole those Median Cookies on Honor's Eve!]

Ostia froze suddenly, her eyes snapping open when this ghost uttered that threat. Slowly the Scion looked up and into the Lucelle shaped figure, her teary eyes looking up into those glaring eyes. That memory is only she could ever recall, oh so many years ago, Warden could not be able to see any significance in such a moment in their childhood.

"Lu? It's,, but, you died." the younger sibling rubbed her eyes with the heel of her palms, while the ghost softens her gaze at her sister, hands delicately crossed over her waist.

[I did. What I am,, is what remains of me. That night where Mother took me to the Thrones,, I did not wake up, my body and soul separated for too long. It consumed my very being. But not gone, thanks to you Tia.]

Ostia blinks slowly, trying to process all of this as Lu spoke, some small voice in her mind urging her to hug her Ghost Sister, but her fears of all of this being a fake were still quite real. "Because of me? But,, why did it take so long till now? Its been,, years, almost decades now! If you were here all along ho-"

[Tia, you could not hear me. So much grief and pain you bore for all this time, trying to distance yourself from Haldia and our family. Your heart and soul were closed,, except that one night.]

Ostia's mind flew back, the inky blackness around the duo morphing to show a memory. Blood and iron, steel and shrill screams, her body wracked by such pain that even the loss of her legs could not compare.

"You,, you were alive then? Locked in the Throne all this time?" Ostia can feel her legs giving out, fresh tears welling up once more as she feels her hands reach out instinctively for Lucelle. "Its been so long Lu, if I had known,, but then you stuck here is my fault?"

[What there was, yes. And I felt your pain, your anger,, and your hope. You thought of me, finding some strength in it,, and that helped me remain. It,, how to say, I stopped feeling lost and wayward. And I have tried for so long, to try and help you as you roamed and fought so many years. But these past few months, it has been so much easier, I am not sure what happened on that world,, but I Feel again.]

Lucelle reaches out with a hand and lightly flicks a finger against Ostia's forehead, giving a sharp sting to the teary eyed younger sister. Ostia flinching with a little yelp, rubbing her head where the sudden pain erupted from.

[ And Lu dear,, you are not to blame. I am still here thanks to you, and I can keep looking out for my brash little sister. Well, you are not so little anymore, now are you?]

Lucelle pulls Ostia in, and by the Emperor she is tangible, a tender warmth finally creeping into Ostia's body as her older sister embraces her, melting away this dreadful numbness. Those threatening tears now spill with earnest now while Ostia hugs her sister for the first time in what felt like an eternity, crying into Lucelle's shoulder.

"I'm sorry Lu, I'm sorry,,"

[Shhh Tia, I do not blame you. I, I know about Mother. I cannot fault your fury and pain, and my heart too soft for such things as war and combat. But now,, I will help protect my little Sister. I am not leaving you ever again.]

Ostia nods quietly, having dreaded on many restless night what Lu would have thought or said to her if she were to find out about the death of their Mother and exile from Haldia. Yet Ostia now felt more determined than before, that Warden would not be the tomb of her sister or herself. It will be a beacon, to spite the pain and fury, to prosper.

Some more world building with the world of Karseille, now that we have a bit of basic backstory and dramatis persona, we move onto,,,

~Fashion~

And got promptly stuck, as I didn't know what kind of time period I wanted them to be in. Very unlikely to be highly influenced by the Nobilis families from major Imperial Worlds or such, with the whole,, body-suit+furs deal, or dressing like you are at a Military Parade from the Colonial Era.

Then brain finally got back into gear and had a few options. Then dumbed down further,, and found it.

Roaring 20's!

(or well, the period from 1900-1930, which included the Roaring 20's but you get what I mean.)

While the younger more avant-garde / modern Karseillais may wear clothes more linked to the 20's and the like;

[I will prepare a book] Tez'sara read through the reports she had gotten in from Kraken, not liking at all what her friend had found and witnessed within the Dreaming City. She should be overjoyed to see the return of Mara Sov, but the implications about Osiris and the Witch Queen,,,

[which is a map to a weapon] The Elementalist pushed aside the papers and datapads, rubbing the bridge of her nose with gloved fingers. Horus, her ever vigilant Ghost slowly floats over from the other side of the office space, having kept himself busy with indexing some of the older Vex reports. His golden frame shifted and clicked as he hovers by his Guardian's shoulder. "Hey,,"

[and my vanquishers, will read that book.] "Hey.." Tez spoke wearily, opening her amber gold eyes to look over at her oldest friend she has had. "We can do this. Together. We have allies and friends, you are not alone." The Awoken chuckles with a shake of her head when Horus spoke again.

"I know Horus, I know,,, but this is not like with Oryx, or Crota or any of the other Hive Pantheon. This one is cunning, terrifyingly so, she has manipulated and schemed on such a level no one can see they are caught in her strings til she allows it." [and they will take up my weapon, and use it]

"I haven't said this will be easy Tez, it never has been when we have gone against the Hive. The Broods, the Nests, the Moon, the Dreadnought. They all have tested the Guardians to their limits and then some. But we are ready for whatever that Witch has cooked up." [and armed thus with my past, and my future, and my present]

Tez sighs lightly as she leans back into her seat, letting her head droop back to gaze up at the arched ceiling, the intricate embroidery and filigree crossing across the deep azure fabrics, moonlight peeking through the half closed windows. Tez's eyes glances over to the barely hidden coffer, atop the furthest cabinet, cloaked in shadows and dust, hidden by the fabrics and ornaments.

[they will become me.]

"I hope we are ready Horus,, I hope we are." The Awoken closes her eyes again, resting a forearm across her temple, putting a little pressure on the headache when it appears again, knowing it would come, like an old friend.

[thus I will live forever.]

what’s so irksome about post+ is like... no one wanted that feature, but there ARE features that people want and WOULD be worth paying a couple bucks a month for, if tumblr actually understood its own userbase *at all*

like i very happily paid for livejournal for years because what you got for a couple bucks a month made using the site a better experience for the way users were actually doing livejournal

if tumblr was like, “hey, for $2 bucks a month, you can have messaging on sideblogs, no ads, actual human support staff responses, and the ability to see and/or edit your tags” i would pay them that money

but instead of doing the work to make the site worth paying for, they want the users to do that work for them by creating paid user-made content instead of, you know, improving the user experience of the actual website, while providing exactly the same level of (zero) service

if they create a site with options worth paying for -- as in additional ease-of-use stuff, not taking things away from the existing free site! -- then people would. it works. it’s a business model that works. but tumblr itself would have to put in the work, and they just don’t want to do that.

#33 & #37 for Josh, pretty please...! 💖💖💖

33. “Close your eyes and hold out your hands.”37. “Can I kiss you?”

I have no words to describe just exactly how I was feeling, honestly I was feeling all kinds of emotions right now, a combination of butterflies, happiness, nausea, excitment, all of those were stirring up inside of me right now. And seriously if only you could see my face right now, you would feel everything that I’m feeling. Tonight I had my first date with Josh Dun, a guy that I’ve been liking for a really long time ever since I was hired as their manager’s assistant I guess you can say.From the first day of my job I never ever thought I would even get to meet him and Tyler let alone be dating one of them. I actually had a crush on both beautiful boys to be truthful, but something about Josh in particular really stole my heart, and apparently I must’ve stolen his because here we are, enjoying the rest of an amazing evening together.

Things were a little quiet between us as he walked me home, I don’t know if it was either because he was shy or I was shy, but I figured that it was most likely me, and since things were silent as hell I think the beating of my heart could be heard in the night air.

“So um, what’s it like being an assistant?” He asked, breaking the awkward silence.He has already actually asked me about this when we sat down to eat but I guess he forgot, that’s pretty adorable…

“It’s pretty cool, I mean Michael is a pretty chill dude so, I guess I got lucky that he’s not so strict with me, less stress, and he pays good money too.”

“Oh yeah? That’s cool, very cool actually.”

“Yeah…” Was all I could respond with, followed by another one of my stupid shy smiles that seemed to be the millionth one I’ve shown tonight…

Things got a little quiet between us again, but it wasn’t going to be like that for much longer, I didn’t want Josh thinking that I wasn’t talkative person or that I wasn’t really into him like I have made obvious before…

“Oh hey you never told me about how you got into drums, cause honestly the way you play them really blows me away.” I smiled, that topic seemed to lighten up the mood a lot, because when he started telling me about it it seemed like he could go on and on, which I found to be adorable once again because he was just so passionate about this instrument, it’s like he was born with drumsticks already in his hands.Overall it lead us to talk a lot more just like it was in the beginning of our date, we were now laughing and literally getting into all kinds of stupid subjects. Being around this guy really made me feel a lot more young, it’s awesome.

“You know maybe you can teach me how to play drums one day?” I said, grinning brightly. He grinned as well, that cute face of his lighting up even more than before…

“I would love to teach you. Whenever you want to start I’m down.”

“Awesome.”

“(Y/N)?” He called out, his tone sounding a bit nervous, making me turn my head to face him. I raised my brows to signal him to tell me what was on his mind.

“I uh…just…close your eyes and hold out your hands.”

I couldn’t help but smile but I shook my head at him, “Joshua come on, don’t tell me you got me a present because honestly you didn’t have to.” He nodded understanding but then he also shook his head at me.

“I know that, I know you’re not a materialistic girl but I wanted to give you something special anyway. So go on now.” He chuckled, and I hesitated but I did what I was told. The next thing I knew I felt what sounded like a chain fall on my palms.Joshua told me to open my eyes and when I did I was in complete awe when I caught sight of a beautiful, sparkling, blue diamond heart shaped necklace. It absolutely glittered whenever the moon light hit it and I was just so in love, but still he shouldn’t have troubled himself.

“Oh my God…oh my goodness this is so precious…”

“You like it?” He eagerly asked with his usual cute smile.

“I love it Josh…like I said you seriously didn’t have to but thank you so much. It’s beautiful. You know now that I look at it more it reminds me of the heart of the ocean necklace from titanic.” I giggled.

“I know that’s why I got it. Michael told me that was your favourite movie so I figured..” He tells me with a shrug. My mouth fell open and I gave him the biggest hug I could give, wrapping my arms tightly around his shoulders. Good God he smells so fucking good, and his strong arms are so securely around my waist, I could honestly say that I felt so safe with him. Also I could be in these loving arms forever.

“May I?” Josh inquired, I nodded in reply and lifted my hair turning my back to him, then he went ahead and hooked the radiant piece of jewelry around my neck.I felt my heart beating faster than ever against my chest when held me so closely from behind, zero space between my back and his broad chest…

“You know (Y/N)…I’m really really happy I finally grew the balls to ask you out on a date…I had the best time of my life.”

“Awwww Josh, I’m happy I went out with you too, you’re such a sweetheart, I always knew it from the moment I met you guys through Michael.” I say.I could easily sense some sort of hesitation comming from him, I could hear his lips parting to say something else to me but it was like something caught his tongue everytime he tried, so I placed my hand on top of his and turned to face him once again, with his fingers interwining with my own..

“What is it?…”

“Hm I uhhh….Can I kiss you?…” He nervously asked in a gentle whisper.

My bottom lip was taken in between my teeth, now I felt like I was gonna have a heart attack, but my lips had a mind of their own…because in the blink of an eye…I kissed him, I kissed him passionately and he treated my lips gently, softly, he was hands down the best kisser I’ve ever had in my life…There was definately a fire inside of me, it was such a spark that I never experienced before and it was magical, that’s the only way to really describe it. I can tell that neither of us wanted the kiss to end, but we still had to walk a few blocks before reaching my house so we had to.Then the rest of the way was even more pleasant than before, this time we held each other’s hand and he gave me one last sweet kiss before leaving my doorstep.

I leaned against the door when I closed it with my face heated up and my fingers tracing my bottom lip, this was surely the beginning of something special between Joshua and I. Man, when I get back to work on Monday…it is truly going to be interesting.

Wedding Crasher

Pairing: ex!Josh Dun x Reader

Warnings: Angst

Word Count: 2485

Request: Josh one, where maybe the reader is getting married and he sees it in a newspaper or hears it from someone who is a mutual friend. so he comes up with the plan to try to stop it. reader ends up completely just running off and disappearing afterwards before showing up at his doorstep telling Josh she wants to be back with him, she misses him? sorry if this makes no sense whatsoever -Anon

Author’s Note: This one was really fun to write! I hope you guys like it, it’s a lot longer than my usual fics!

Josh’s POV

“I’m sorry, she’s what?” I looked at Jenna in disbelief.

“Getting married, Josh. It’s not a difficult concept.”

“To who?”

Last time I had checked, Y/N wasn’t even dating anyone. Now out of the blue she was getting married in a few weeks?

“A guy she met at work. They started dating around a year ago.”

“Why didn’t you tell me she was dating someone earlier?”

“Because it’s none of your business, Josh. You’re her ex.”

“You knew!”

“I’m her best friend, of course I knew!”

Tyler walked into the room, obviously disturbed by the amount of noise that Jenna and I were making.

“What’s going on in here?”

“Y/N is getting married in a few months and Josh is upset about it,” Jenna calmly explained.

“Oh yeah, I knew that.”

“You told Tyler?” I asked incredulously.

“Tyler was there when she told us.”

I leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling, exasperated.

“I need to do something to stop this.”

“Josh, it’s not your place,” Jenna said.

I turned to Tyler, hoping that he would back me up. He shrugged.

“I don’t think that’s a very good idea, man.”

“You guys don’t understand. I need to do this.”

“Why?” Jenna asked.

I sat up so that I could look at her properly. She needed to understand that I really meant what I was about to say.

“Jenna, our breakup was never meant to happen. We were both exhausted and emotional, I was about to leave for tour and we had stayed up too late the night before just trying to spend time with each other. We were having a long discussion about the future and she mentioned how hard it was when I’m away and then I threw breaking up out there without really meaning it, but we talked about it and thought it was a better decision for both of us. I didn’t mean it, that was the last thing I wanted. It really hit me the next day, but Tyler and I were already on the tour bus hours away from home and it was too late. When I got back, she had taken the little things that she always left at my apartment back home. That was the last time I saw her, and I’ve regretted it ever since.”

“Isn’t there a...less destructive way for you to go about this?” Tyler asked.

“When is the wedding?”

“About two weeks,” Jenna answered. “Which reminds me that I need to get my dress picked out.”

“Not if I have anything to do with it,” I mumbled.

Tyler walked over and took a seat next to me on the couch, “Josh, are you really going to go through with this?”

“Don’t you think it seems fishy that she met this guy just over a year ago and they got married this quickly? She told me that we had to be dating for at least three years before we even thought about getting married.”

“Maybe it does, but this is her life. Not yours. And I’m not going to support you barging into her life and trying to ruin her wedding.”

“Fine, then don’t. But I need to talk to her before she goes through with it.”

Tyler sighed, “Whatever you say.”

Your POV

Your phone buzzed just as you were laying down to take a nap. Life had been so hectic lately that you took any chance to have some time to yourself. Between work and wedding planning, that time was rare.

You debated not looking at the text, but in the likely scenario that it was someone texting you to clear up something about the wedding, you decided to deal with it before your fiance got his hands on it. He was a good guy, but his opinions about the wedding were questionable at best.

Your stomach dropped when you read the name on the text message. There was still a heart emoji after his last name that you refused to get rid of. With shaking fingers, you slid the text message open so that you could read it in its entirety.

Hey, I wanted to talk to you about some things. Are you free on Friday at noon? We could get smoothies or something.

“So much for napping,” you sighed, extremely aware of the adrenaline that was now pumping through your body.

You took a few moments to think out a good reply. He hadn’t really explained what he had to talk to you about, and it seemed odd that he was just popping up out of the blue after over a year of not talking to one another.

That just so happens to be the only day this week that I’m not busy. The usual place?

“The usual place” seemed so weird to say, as if the two of you were still dating. Smoothies had always been a post-studio tradition for the two of you to celebrate whatever work he and Tyler had gotten done that day. In fact, you hadn’t had a smoothie since the last time the two of you went.

Sounds great. Can’t wait to see you :)

You decided not to answer, despite how badly you wanted to. The conversation could easily come across as suspicious, especially given the heart after his name, and the last thing you wanted was to lose your fiance’s trust right before your wedding.

Josh’s POV

I showed up to the smoothie place a full ten minutes before I was supposed to. This was mostly due to a mixture of excitement and nerves. It had been a long time since I had seen Y/N. Hopefully she hadn’t told Jenna that the two of us were meeting up, her and Tyler would definitely disapprove of what I was doing.

I got out of the car and headed inside, deciding that sitting inside would be less weird than sitting alone in my car. There were a couple empty tables, so I sat down at one and pulled out my phone to kill time.

Ten minutes later, Y/N showed up. She was right on time, as she had the tendency to be. I waved at her to grab her attention and her face lit up as soon as she saw me. She walked over to the table I was sitting at and I stood up so that I could hug her.

“How are you?” she asked, hugging me tightly.

“I’m good. How about you?”

“Great,” she smiled. “Want to get something to drink?”

“Yeah, that would be awesome.”

I tried not to stare at her as we walked over to order. She looked just as beautiful as the last time that I had seen her, if not more so. Maybe it was because she wasn’t sleep deprived like she had been when we broke up.

Once we both had our drinks, we sat back down at the table that I had been at before. Y/N hung her bag over the back of the chair.

“So, what did you want to talk to me about?” she asked, twirling her straw idly in her drink.

I opened my mouth to answer her, but my tongue felt tied and I struggled to get any words out. Y/N was looking at me with raised eyebrows, waiting for me to say something.

“I heard you’re getting married,” I finally managed to say.

Her cheeks grew flushed with color and she cast her gaze down at the table, “Yeah, I am.”

“How is that going?” I asked.

She shrugged, “Good, I suppose. Planning a wedding is stressful, especially on such short notice.”

I nodded, unsure of what to say after that. The color was slowly leaving her cheeks.

“Listen, I know you’re probably wondering why you weren’t invited but-”

“No, not at all,” I interjected. “It’s your wedding, you’re free to invite who you want to.”

“Yeah,” she sighed.

Something seemed like it was upsetting her, but I didn’t think it was my place to ask. I knew that if I was going to tell her about how I felt, it was now or never.

“So, um, there’s something else that I wanted to talk to you about.”

It was odd how comfortable I still felt around her. Despite the fact that we hadn’t seen each other in over a year, it felt as if it had only been a week at most.

“Sure, go for it.”

“I think breaking up was a mistake. When I suggested it, I didn’t really mean it. Then you started to talk about it, and you made it sound like the best option and I didn’t want to hold you back. What I’m trying to say is that I still love you, Y/N.”

“Josh, I-”

“I know, this is really bad timing because you’re about to get married but I just couldn’t not tell you.”

I knew that what I had done was terrible, but I meant everything that I had said. This was the best way to try and stop her from getting married without completely ruining her life.

“I have to go,” she said, grabbing her bag and smoothie as she stood up.

I started to say something, but she seemed so flustered that it was evident that she didn’t want to be around me right now. Maybe my plan hadn’t been as solid as I thought after all.

“Bye,” I said meekly as she walked away from the table.

She didn’t turn back once.

Your POV

You tossed your bag down next to the door and walked straight over to the couch. Once your face was completely buried in the pillow, you screamed to release all of the tension that had built inside of you. As soon as you had convinced yourself that things were going to be ok and Josh was just a distant memory, he popped back into your life and said, well...this.

You hadn’t wanted to marry your fiance. Not yet, anyway. Sure, he was a nice guy from work but things with him had never been quite like they were with Josh. Josh was exciting and every day was an adventure with him. Your fiance, on the other hand, was so focused on work and getting to the top of the ladder that it consumed him at times. It attracted you at first, but it quickly became more annoying than admirable.

Then came the day when he proposed. You had always wanted to wait for a few years before you married anyone, but your parents had really been putting the pressure to get married on you. It really felt like you had no option but to say yes, despite everything else telling you to say no. You had pushed Josh to the back of your mind and accepted that he would never feel the same again, and now here you were.

Your phone buzzed, and when you grabbed it Jenna’s contact picture was on the screen. You hit the green button and brought your phone to your ear.

“Hello?”

“Hi, Y/N. Did you by any chance see Josh today?”

“Yeah, we met up for smoothies. Why?”

You heard Jenna sigh on the other end of the line, “He’s been acting off and Tyler is super worried about him. I thought he might have come to see you. What happened?”

You explained the conversation that you and Josh had to Jenna. She listened intently as you added your own commentary about how you were feeling and by the end of the call, you had made a decision about where to go from here.

“Thanks for listening, Jen.”

“Of course, Y/N. Good luck. I hope you know that I’m always going to be here for you.”

“I do. Thank you so much.”

“Goodbye.”

“Bye.”

You ended the call and got up from the couch. There was a lot of packing to be done.

Josh’s POV

It had been close to a day since I saw Y/N. Tyler and Jenna had found out that I had seen her, although exactly how I wasn’t quite sure. I had spent most of my time at home, feeling awful for causing her so much distress. In hindsight, I should have expected that. You can’t really drop a bombshell on someone like that and expect them to be fine.

There had been numerous times where I had debated calling Y/N to make sure she was ok, but decided against it. She had probably told her fiance all about what happened, and I didn’t want to accidentally make things much worse than I already had.

I set my empty mug in the sink and started to walk back to the living room when there was a knock on the door. Tyler wasn’t supposed to have shown up for another couple hours, so I was confused as to why he had decided to come over early.

I ruffled my hair a bit as I walked over to the door, my socked feet making hardly any noise. When I opened the door, I was surprised to see it was Y/N on the other side, looking extremely nervous.

“Uh, hi,” I said, running a hand through my hair again.

“Hi,” she murmured. “I might have just done something very stupid.”

My eyebrows furrowed, “What did you do?”

“I called off the wedding so that I could be with you.”

“You what?”

“Called it off. All of it. I couldn’t marry that guy, not when I knew you would take me back.”

I couldn’t help but smile, even if it wasn’t really a smiling matter. Despite how happy I was, she still looked very upset.

“All of my stuff is in my car,” she explained.

“We can deal with that later, you should come inside.”

She walked inside and I followed her to the couch where she took a seat at one end. I sat across from her, not knowing how comfortable she was with physical contact yet. There was nothing I wanted to do more than hug her to me and press kisses to her forehead, but now wasn’t the time.

“I feel awful, Josh,” she explained, trying to pass wiping away a tear as itching her cheek.

“Don’t feel awful. You’re doing what makes you happiest, you can’t be blamed for that.”

“I know but I still have to tell my family and everything,” she said, starting to shake. “And-”

“Hey, it’s ok,” I said calmly. “Come here.”

I held my arms out and she scooted closer to me so that she could rest her head on my chest. She held onto me tightly.

“We’re going to work this out together, ok?” I said. “I have your back.”

“I missed you so much,” she sniffled. “So, so much.”

“I missed you too, but you’re here now. And that’s what matters.”

@silvereddaye you know the drill

For all your Prince Luke Skywalker/ Amidala/Organa etc needs.  Also ft a lot of Leia Skywalker along with that.

Bail is unsure why he’s being told this, but he is intrigued. “Where is the boy now?”

“Here,” Mon smiles, “on this base, being cared for by Shara Bey and Kes Dameron.”

Bail nods upon recognizing the names. Shara is their best pilot, and Kes is their best combat leader.

“However,” Mon states, “they cannot care for the boy full-time. There is something...unique about him. Something you are more equipped to handle.”

Bail narrows his eyes. “What?”

“Ezra Bridger is Force-sensitive,” Mon reveals.

Bail leans back in his chair and blinks once. “I see…”

“If your son is anything like his true parents,” Mon says, “he will soon require guidance. This boy also requires that guidance.”

“So,” Bail says, “you want me to shield them both from the Empire. Get them a...teacher.”

8. Hostage Interludes  Slx99

Interlude pieces of the ‘Hostage’ universe from my ongoing long-fic that don't fit into the main story, but which I still wanted to share. Some will be more fun, others more serious. They have no influence on the main story.

Basic premise of the main story: Luke grew up with Bail and Breha Organa as the Prince of Alderaan. When Bail becomes too outspoken against Palpatine he orders Vader to take the young prince as a Hostage. Luke now lives aboard the Executor. He finds out rather soon that Vader is his father and the story goes from there.
