#Ki was the name given to him by the person who he formed a contract with as his old name was forgotten during his madness

[raytm]

i'm slowly thinking about a hsr for my OC. he's a foxian who currently operates in a bar in penacony. he's got some sussy background but he's sort of just your local guy. he knows alot of stuff. he tends to be the sort of person other's give over information to without really realising they have. ( his name is ki and he's the love of my life ) his original lore was that he was a harvest deity whose village was pillage and burnt to the ground, after wandering for some time, decades later, the land was going to be levelled in order for construction of some description which led to him losing control and ending up attacking the workers. leading to someone who was relevant in working with the supernatural coming and engaging with him which ended up with a contract being forged between the two and Ki finding a new lease on life. ( im trying to work out which aeon he might fall under, who he might work for in a hsr verse if anyone at all,, but he's really cute and u should write with him )

This is a very serious and deep question,” says RM, the 26-year-old leader of the world’s biggest band. He pauses to think. We’re talking about utopian and dystopian futures, about how the boundary-smashing, hegemony-overturning global success of his group, the wildly talented seven-member South Korean juggernaut BTS, feels like a glimpse of a new and better world, of an interconnected 21st century actually living up to its promise. 

BTS’ downright magical levels of charisma, their genre-defying, sleek-but-personal music, even their casually nontoxic, skin-care-intensive brand of masculinity — every bit of it feels like a visitation from some brighter, more hopeful timeline. What RM is currently pondering, however, is how all of it contrasts with a darker landscape all around them, particularly the horrifying recent wave of anti-Asian violence and discrimination across a global diaspora.

“We are outliers,” says RM, “and we came into the American music market and enjoyed this incredible success.” In 2020, seven years into their career, BTS’ first English-language single, the irresistible “Dynamite,” hit Number One, an achievement so singular it prompted a congratulatory statement from South Korea’s president, Moon Jae-in. The nation has long been deeply invested in its outsize cultural success beyond its borders, known as the Korean Wave.

“Now, of course, there is no utopia,” RM continues. “There’s a light side; there’s always going to be a dark side. The way we think is that everything that we do, and our existence itself, is contributing to the hope for leaving this xenophobia, these negative things, behind. It’s our hope, too, that people in the minority will draw some energy and strength from our existence. Yes, there’s xenophobia, but there are also a lot of people who are very accepting. . . . The fact that we have faced success in the United States is very meaningful in and of itself.”

At the moment, RM is in an acoustically treated room at his label’s headquarters in Seoul, wearing a white medical mask to protect a nearby translator. a black bucket hat, and a black hoodie from the Los Angeles luxury label Fear of God. As RM has had to explain too many times on U.S. talk shows, he taught himself his fluent English via bingeing Friends DVDs. Still, he makes understandable use of the interpreter when the conversation gets complex.

RM is a fan of complexity. He was on a path toward an elite university education before a love of hip-hop, first sparked by a Korean group, Epik High, detoured him into superstardom. Bang Si-hyuk, the cerebral, intense-yet-avuncular mogul-producer who founded BTS’ record company, Big Hit Entertainment (now HYBE), signed RM first, in 2010, and gradually formed BTS around the rapper’s talent and magnetism. “When I first met RM,” says Si-hyuk, “I felt a sense of duty that I must help him grow to become a great artist after acknowledging his musical talents and ways of thinking.”

RM carries himself with a level of gravitas that was perhaps incongruent with his initial stage name of Rap Monster, officially shortened in 2017. He drops quotes from Nietzsche and the abstract artist Kim Whan-ki in interviews, and celebrated his 26th birthday by donating nearly $85,000 to a museum foundation to support the reprinting of rare fine-art books. He and Suga fill their rhymes with double- and triple-entendres that would impress U.S. hip-hop heads who’ve never thought much about BTS.

It’s not uncommon for the members of BTS to shed a tear or two while they’re addressing fans onstage. Along with their comfort with makeup and iridescent hair dye, it all plays into their instinctive rejection of rigid conceptions of masculinity. “The labels of what being masculine is, is an outdated concept,” says RM. “It is not our intention to break it down. But if we are making a positive impact, we are very thankful. We live in an age where we shouldn’t have those labels or have those restrictions.”

“When we wrote those songs, and those messages, of course, it wasn’t from some knowledge or awareness of the education system in the United States or anywhere else,” says RM. “We were teenagers at that time. There were things we were able to say, from what we felt and from our experiences about the unreasonableness of school, or the uncertainties and the fears and anxieties that teens have. And a common thought and a common emotion resonated with youth, not just in Korea, but in the United States, and the West.”

In 2018, BTS negotiated a renewal of their contract with Si-hyuk’s company, committing to another seven years as a band. In the process, they were given a financial stake in HYBE. “It’s very meaningful,” says RM, “for us and also the company, that we admit and recognize each other as true partners. Now Big Hit’s success is our success, and our success is Big Hit’s success.” It also meant a multimillion-dollar windfall for the group when HYBE went public last year. “That’s very important,” RM says with a grin.

summary: Once a year, the villages come together to give thanks and sacrifice of foods and goods for all the gods had done to them. But this year, the gift is different.

-

It happened at the same time every year. The villages would come together and make sacrifices of food and gold and objects that people had poured love into over the years. It was a thank you for all that was done to protect them from harsh winters and invading forces. And for the gods who received, it was the only time of year that they could look down from their perch to the world of man and see humanity.

Upon the mountaintop, their vision was limited to the elements of the world that they controlled. Jaebum could see the sun, could make it shine bright upon grassy meadows, but the moon was a mystery to him. Mark could call the tides to the shoreline, could make the waves rocky and destructive to the boats of the enemies attempting to lay claim to land that wasn’t their own, but the life that dwelled within the waves were nothing to him.

Youngjae could hear the purrs and the howls and the calls of the animals in their domain, but couldn’t stop the harsh winds that the birds flew upon. Jinyoung could cradle the dead in his arms and walk their souls to a better place, but the living world was simply darkness to him. Jackson felt the love and the heartbreak that came with it, but had no notion what else was needed to survive in this world. Bambam knew of wealth and the metals that formed it which bent to his will, but he couldn’t understand the love between a parent and child. Yugyeom could call the moon to shine and see its reflection in lakes, but he’d never know the brightness of the day.

But for this one day, that changed. They could see all.

Youngjae seemed to enjoy the holiday the most. He’d wake his brothers up early and demand they be up and ready for the day at the most obscene of hours. No one had the heart to tell him to go away, not when he was smiling so brightly and looked so excited, so his siblings would drag themselves from their beds and trudge into breakfast and try their hardest not to fall asleep in their ambrosia.

‘I wonder what gifts we’ll receive this year,’ Youngjae pondered, wriggling in his seat, unable to control himself.

‘I could use some diamond,’ Bambam mused. His eyes shone like them as he thought of the prospects, of what he could do with just a little of the pressurized metal.

‘A wedding band,’ Jackson piped up, ‘the stories that come from such a simple thing…’

‘I want to see the sun,’ Yugyeom murmured. It was the same thing he wanted every year.

The time came – midday and Jaebum hung the sun high in the sky and warmed the land to embrace the people for all they would give up. He’d always say, ‘this relationship goes two ways. We need humans as much as humanity needs us. It’s not something to be taken for granted.’

The gods gathered in the pavilion, the closest point between their world and the humans, and waited for the fires. Upon an altar, precious items were gathered and cleansed with fire to guide their journey to the god’s mountain. In the pavilion, a fire pit would flare to life and when it finally died, leaving behind the sacrifice.

There was a hum of excitement when the first flame began to rise. It was just a small light at their feet, but within moments it was growing, reaching up to touch the receivers. Jinyoung stretched out his hand, spread his fingers and sighed in contentment at the warmth on his palm. His world was always so cold and in this moment, the chill had evaporated.

‘Wait, something is different,’ Mark commented lowly.

‘They’re still growing,’ Jaebum’s eyebrows furrowed.

The fires never grew higher than their waists, instead stretching outwards to encompass the goods that were to be received. But that day, they grew taller, rising and rising until they could look Yugyeom in the eye. A sense of unease filled them, making the gods shift from foot to foot.

‘What does that mean?’ Bambam questioned with concern heavy in his voice.

Jinyoung felt the tug in the pit of his stomach, a calling so close, so strong, and he knew. He closed his eyes and muttered a blessing of passage.

‘They made a sacrifice,’ he spoke, his voice calm, serene, as it always became when a soul was near, ‘Just not the usual kind.’

‘W-what do you mean?’ Youngjae stammered.

Jinyoung opened his eyes. They glowed white with life taken.

The sight made Jackson recoil. ‘No, wait, that means-‘

‘Why would they?’

‘They’ve never…’

‘What does...’

The flames had reached their peak and thumped with the beating of a heart. Jinyoung took a step closer, embraced the heat and began his duties. ‘It’s okay,’ he cooed, ‘It’s okay. You’re safe. I have you.’

A whimper. A noise that didn’t belong to any of the gods present. Jaebum cursed under his breath. Jackson clutched at his chest, over his heart, as he felt the heartbreak there.

Yugyeom grabbed onto Youngjae, who held onto him in return. Mark put his hand on the back of Youngjae, tried to be a calming force for the god that looked so pained. He’d been excited about this gift, and now, he wished they weren’t receiving it.

Jinyoung was still urging, still soothing. ‘I have you,’ he repeated his promise, ‘Take my hand.’

He reached a hand into the flames and felt the cold when something without life wrapped its fingers around his palm. He could see her then. She was young. An innocent. A sacrifice made by desperate people. She was gaunt with skin paled from sickness, but she hadn’t always been like that. In the orange, he could see what she had once been before what was she now.

‘I’m sorry,’ he told her.

She opened her eyes to look at him, dark orbs that held more warmth than they should have with her life essence gone and in his hands. She parted her lips as if she were going to speak but no sound came out.

Jinyoung grasped her hand just a little bit tighter. ‘I’m sorry,’ he said again and pulled her from the fire.

-

She hadn’t said anything. Jinyoung sat her on the bench that overlooked the human world, held her hand and murmured the words that only those at his door would ever hear. From a distance, the others watched, shaken and terrified and uncertain by what had been given to them.

‘Why?’ Jackson demanded. He was still holding his chest, the barrier between their world and the humans so thin that he felt everything, felt too much. It was tearing him apart - where was the love he coveted? Why did everything have to hurt so much?

Mark reached out and put his hand over Jackson’s, used the calm of the sea to soothe his brother’s heart, but his eyes were flared with the brutal anger of the ocean. The wild storm was visible when he made eye contact with Jaebum. ‘What should we do?’

Jaebum pushed a hand through his hair and looked to their ‘gift’. She was staring outwards, never blinking, not really seeing, and for the first time since he’d awoken with the power of the sun at his fingertips, he was at a loss. ‘I...’

Mark followed his stare. ‘Do the rules still apply when its human?’

The rules in the contract signed millennia ago that ensured harmony in the land. The gifts were the god’s property from the moment they stepped upon the mountain. They could not be returned. But this was a soul, a person, not bread freshly made that morning.

‘What must it be like for them to send her?’ Yugyeom whispered, voice hoarse. It was mostly to himself, but the others heard and expressions set solemnly. To sacrifice one of their own, they couldn’t -

‘She has been starved,’ Jinyoung spoke up, voice still soft and air, eyes never moving away from his charge, ‘A food shortage. The soil doesn’t accept life anymore.’

‘We don’t have control over that,’ Youngjae worried his bottom lip.

‘They’re desperate,’ Jackson muttered, ‘So desperate.’

He reached for Mark’s hand for the waves of calm when it felt like too much.

‘Fire,’ a soft voice, unfamiliar and broken as if it were not used to make any noise at all. It drew attention, and the sacrifice shifted, pulled her legs closer to her and suddenly appeared more alive than she should be.

‘What’s your name?’ Jinyoung spoke carefully. He had his hand on her elbow, a gentle touch to ground her to this life.

‘I...I don’t remember,’ she croaked. Jinyoung nodded understandingly. He had seen it before, the distance between what was and what is, and how the mind struggles to adapt to it.

‘We have to call her something,’ Bambam complained.

‘Bam...’ Jaebum muttered as a warning.

‘Is there a name that seems familiar to you?’ Jinyoung asked carefully, gently.

She opened her mouth and closed it, opened and formed vowels and consonants with her lips. A squeak, a mumble, and finally, ‘Ki...’

‘Ki? Just Ki?’ Jackson questioned.

Her eyebrows furrowed, and her expression creased with distress. Jinyoung hummed a noise that relaxed her features just so. ‘It’s okay,’ he assured, ‘You’re doing well.’

Youngjae crouched down to eye level and smiled earnestly. ‘I like Ki.’

She looked at him and blinked once with warm eyes. And then she smiled. It trembled at the edges as if the muscles were not used to the action - and they shouldn’t be, as death takes everything and leaves you cold - but it was a smile all the same. Youngjae seemed delighted, but for Jinyoung, there was something uncertain in the pit of his stomach.

Ki reeked of death, yes, and his domain called for him to do his duty, but she held on to too much life. A smile. A warm look. A flush to her cheeks. It was uncomfortable, made Jinyoung’s skin itch equally as it made his power sing.

So that left him with one question that he wasn’t certain he would get an answer to: what was she?

Your obedient servant, asshole

File and King Dice duke it out like adults they are.

----

File picked up the small note tuckered between papers she collected on her table.

"Dear Folder,These were past due yesterday. If I found another more sloppy work I would have to talk to Boss, count yourself lucky I haven't done so. Consider this as show of my good will.

Best regards Your obedient servant Dice"

She crushed it in her hand, fully knowing these papers weren't nowhere in her vicinity whole week. That slimy sleazy cube. --

Dice stared at note Wheezy delivered to him. He could see retreating blue vest on other side of the room.

"Dearest Ki... Dice,

should I remind you, that if you want work done, you have to deliver it to the one who should do it? Your demands were met with satisfaction non the less. Also I would recommend buying more whiskey as my data shows spike in consumption. Just polite reminder.

Best regards Your obedient servant File"

He glared at the offending piece of paper and then turned to barman to talk about the whiskey consumption. -- Small paper plane landed before File as she was sitting at bar, talking with bartender and filling her employee information, that needed to be updated.

"Dear Folder,

no need to remind me on my duties, unlike some paper head I know. But I would like to remind you, that you have your work and I have mine. Don't try to take on too much, or should I remind you what happened the last time? That was quite amusing to see.

Best regards Your obedient servant KING Dice."

Only small twitch showed her rising irritation, before she returned to her previous task. Maybe her questions were bit more snappy than before, maybe not. Bartender just tried to hide his smile. -- Dice pulled out his handkerchief and small paper note fell from his pocket. When he picked it up, only his years of dealing with people saved him from swearing out loud.

"Dearest Dice <3,

I wasn't aware you know more paper headed people than me. Should I be jealous? Or should I draft new working contract for them, listing all their duties as you seem to be concerned by their lack of diligence. As for taking on too much work, should I remind you I was 25 and managed to last whole month, before completely shutting down from exhaustion. And I was finishing my academical degree on top. I'm sure it must have been hilarious to witness it. But should I remind you who came begging to take back my work afterwards? Even though I was still recovering from my sickness?

Best regards Your obedient servant secretary Folder File."

He stared at the mocking heart behind his name, wondering if punching her would be considered bad taste. He put it away, smiled at the guest he was scamming and pretended nothing happened. -- File fumed as she discovered paper flower at her table, everybody knew she hated when notes were handled to her folded in any shape or form.

"Dear Folder,

it's amazing how much you care for somebody unknown to you. Yet my concerns were aimed at you and you alone. Seems like your contract needs revision. Have to admit, you shutting down right in middle of meeting with Boss and faceplanting right in to fiery pit was best thing that happened in several years. It saddens me that I wasn't able to catch in on film. As for me begging you to take back your job, that was order from Boss. Don't read too much in to it, but given how much I know you, that is impossible. So enjoy your disillusions.

Best regards Your obedient servant Manager King Dice."

Folding it back in to flower shape, File set it on floor gently, before she crushed it with her feet. It felt so good imagining Dice's hand instead of the innocent paper. -- Dice looked up from his own paperwork, as the hellish secretary walked in, rather impressive stack of papers in her arms. He just shuddered at the amount that she most likely is going to dump on him. Instead she just put small piece of paper in front of him, turned on her heel and left without single word.

"Dearest Dice,

I assure you my contract doesn't need revision, update or anything else to be done to it. It's updated automatically since it was made by myself after negotiation with Boss all those years ago. Thank you for your concern, they were horribly misplaced though.Shame, truly a shame that you couldn't catch my shameful fall, yet I still have pictures of you in that lovely maid outfit Devil forced on you, due to some misfortune that managed to befall on you. If I remember correctly it was because some patrons managed to set several tables on fire before you could apprehend them. Wonder how could they get such fire power to do so. We should never know.

Best regards, Your obedient servant Devil's secretary Folder File."

He reread it several times. Did she indirectly admitted it was her who helped to set Casino on fire when he was watching. Was she that petty?

Squinting at the paper he noticed small arrow. Turned the paper to see PS. "PS: Don't read in to it too much. I was with Boss at the incriminating time. Love, File."

He torn the paper in to pieces. -- File was enjoying rare meal and humming to herself as she was reading book while forking down rice with some sort of sauce. Her tranquility was interrupted when Dice showed up, slammed something down and stormed away.

"Dear Folder,

so nice to know your contract is only in your head. That picture is going to meet swift end, or so I swear you will find your latest writing creation posted all over the Inkwell isles. Hopeful you know what I mean, it was rather funny read, given you don't have any imagination. Who knew that stoic old maid File likes fantasy novels?

Best regards Your obedient servant Devil's manager King Dice."

She stared at it and felt color darken her cheeks. That scoundrel! He found out her stash of stupid ideas, that needed to be taken out for her to be able to focus on anything else beside them. The note ended as bookmark. -- Later that same day Dice was having nice smoke outside, when File marched past him, leaving small paper flutter down in her wake for Dice to pick it up.

"Dearest Dice,

how long did it take for you to come up with that pun? Or did somebody else help you with it? It seems more elaborate than your normal quips. I really want to talk to the person who helped you with it.As for my writing, hope you got copies, since paper that was used for its creation came from my head. You really should come up with better hiding place. I'm going to have fun with burning it.

Best regards Your obedient servant Devil's hellish secretary Folder File.

PS: Left something for you to read in meantime."

When King Dice looked in his hiding place in unused piano, he found children's picture book about colors. -- File was just about to have a lunch when she noticed there was only piece of paper on her plate.

"Dear Folder,

I might come to you are a surprise but it was me who came up with that pun. But what comes to me as surprise is that you know what pun is and noticed one. Bravo, maybe your sense of humor was not amongs the causalities of your poisoning attempt.Shame, but what I read will never leave me. It was enlightening to see you know how o use magic of great proportions.

Best regards Your obedient servant Devil's charming manager King Dice."

Now the secretary was hungry and angry. Dice was about to get it. -- File stomped to Dice, wordlessly glaring at him over his desk, before she slid piece paper over to him and left his office.

"Dearest and beloved Ego Dice,

there is one thing to question my intelligence, social skills and even fashion. I know I'm average looking at best. Shut in and bad at talking to people. But when you mess with my food and leave me hungry for rest of the day, that is where I draw the line. There was only few things I was looking forward to eat and you took that away. Hope you will appreciate how big those pictures of you are.

Simply die Your obedient servant hungry Devil's hellish secretary Folder File."

Dice smirked to himself. And then it dawned on him. She had pictures of him? What kind of... he stopped when he heard laughter from Casino and briskly walked out. Patrons had rather large pictures of him in various embarrassing situations, outfits and in File's clothes, when he and her were tasked by Boss to do each others job for a week. In each others clothes. Worst was all those pictures were taken out of context, none was given, so everybody thought it was willingly taken.

That was low and blow to his pride. It would rook some time before he collected all pictures, only to discover she went all out and spread them over Inkwell as well. -- File was finally able to hunt down some food, enjoying the nibble when King Dice stormed over to her, slamming his hand down, snatching her granola bar and stormed away. She was stunned. On note he left on the table was written only few things.

"Dear Ego trip File,

that was low, even for you. From now on, you can buy your own food.

Best Regards Your obedient servant pissed Devil's charming manager King Dice."

When she peaked in kitchen cooks just shook their heads and shooed her out. She didn't have any other option than to go shopping. And talk to people while still hungry as entire Hell. -- They were both sitting before Devil on monthly meeting. File to record the meeting, Devil an Dice doing all the talking. But File was distracted by her hunger and Dice was still trying to live down the humiliation from all those pictures.

Both were glaring at each other, bile rising in their mouths at the mere presence of the other. It didn't take long for File to pull paper from her head and slip it to Dice, as Devil turned away from them, pulling out Deal from cabinet behind him.

"King Ego,

thanks to you I'm banned from every shop on Inkwell. Without money and food.

Go die Your obedient servant mad hungry Devil's hellish secretary Folder File"

Dice glared at her, before smirking. He tore the paper with shrug, he could care less about her struggles.

In retaliation File pulled another paper from her head, this one with dark smirk and put it on Devil's desk. It was clear it was a picture of Dice in King's regalia, sitting on Devils throne chair. Surely something that would make their boss angry.

"That's not fair, File." Dice hissed as he tried to snatch the picture away, but the secretary kept it pinned to the desk with her fingers. Both trying to not to make any ruckus, so they wouldn't alert Devil, who was taking his sweet time to find the Deal, he wanted to discuss.

If both were paying attention, they would notice that Devil was already watching them with huge grin on his face.

"All is fair when you play with my food, Dice." File hissed back with venom. "You are overly dramatic. You could take some from pantry!" Dice leaned closer, his fingers still tugging at the offending picture.

"I would, if somebody didn't put lock on it month prior and didn't have only key to it, dick." Snapping back, File too leaned closer to be hear over her growling stomach.

"Well I wouldn't put lock on it, if somebody didn't steal food from it. As you know, your numbers told us that!" Dice was furious, She was blaming him from something so idiotic.

"That still didn't change the thin, there is only one key!" She glared as hunger pain shoot though her body. Her grip was failing.

"Cry me a river. You bought this on yourself."

"You started this childish pass it note!"

"You continued!"

"Because I had no words how stupid it was!"

"And showing everybody my embarrassing photos was smart? File you are..."

"I dare you to finish that statement." Before Dice could finish, he had wooden sword in his face, with orange eyed File fuming and glaring at him.

"Stupid beyond belief." Dice himself took out his cards, ready to defend himself.

Both adults were ready to tear each other apart when laughter interrupted their escalating argument. Devil was having best day in long time and laughed at expense of his employees.

"Ya both stupid. Sit down and let wrap this up. As much as I enjoy your pissed squabbles and scuffles you are working. Finish it in your free time." He ordered.

Dice and File sat down, still hatefully glaring at each other. -- The meeting was wrapped quickly. The secretary and Manager disappeared quickly after it. Next day they showed with poorly hidden black eyes and bruises. File even had cracked glasses.

Both refused to talk about, talk to each other and it took almost a month before their anger simmered down enough to silently work with each other again.

Much to amusement of everybody around. unless you counted Mr Wheezy who was the one who was passing messages between the two.

Devil decided he needed to mess with his two employees more often as he shuffled through pictures of them two duking it out.

                                                        MEMBERS OF SG-14                                                                (Main Verse)

                                    See below the cut for biographical information

Name: Amelia Dunbar Rank: Lieutenant Colonel Position on Team: Leader/Tactical Expert Age: 42 Born: St. Louis, MO Significant Other(s): Dr. Joseph Dunbar (husband) Children: Elizabeth Dunbar (9), Michael Dunbar (7) Parents: Michael Yates (father), Antoinette Yates (mother) Siblings: Two younger sisters, Tanya and Jacqueline FC: Angela Bassett

Biographical Overview: Born in St. Louis, MO to two high school teachers. Her family was always tight-knit, loving, and supportive, but they struggled financially. As the oldest of three girls, Amelia took on the role of caregiver early in life. She not only took care of her younger sisters regularly, but also started working to earn more money for the family as soon as she was able. This occasionally interfered with her academic success, but Amelia was always far too stubborn and determined to let a hectic life stop her. Despite working two jobs and caring for her sisters, she managed to finish high school third in her class. Upon graduation, she decided to seek out new challenges in the Air Force. 

At both the Academy and in the early years of her career, Amelia distinguished herself as an exemplary officer with a keen strategic mind and strong, no-nonsense leadership skills. As she rose through the ranks, she was often feared by her subordinates, but always earned their utmost respect. When the Stargate Program began to pick up steam, her record and reputation made her one of the earliest recruits. For several years, she was a member of SG-6, before finally earning her own command as the leader of SG-14. 

Meanwhile, as her career was thriving, so was her personal life. On an early assignment before joining the SGC, she met a physicist named Dr. Joseph Dunbar who was contracted to work with the Air Force on an aerospace project. Despite her better judgement, the two fell in love and were soon married. He moved with her to Colorado when she was offered a position at the SGC. They have two young children, Elizabeth and Michael.

Psychological Profile: To most people, Amelia is stern, stoic, and hard to read. She doesn’t suffer fools lightly and can always be counted on for a plan and a cool head in tense moments. She is the very image of a leader. But it would be a mistake write her off as ‘cold.’ She deliberately keeps her emotions out of her work as best she can. Beneath the well-trained exterior, she is deeply maternal and is incredibly protective of anyone she sees as being her care. She will dole out lots of ‘tough love’, but serve as steady support all the same. Those who know her best - namely, her family and her teammates - know that she can be incredibly warm and funny. She has an enormous capacity for love, even if few people see it up close. She is deeply mission-oriented, but ultimately, her primary goal is to protect her own and the people who are counting on her. 

Name: Kendra Park Rank: Major Position on Team: Aerospace Engineer/Tech Expert Age: 33 Born: New York, NY Significant Other(s): Catarina Olivera (partner) Children: N/A Parents: Ki-tae Park (father), Margaret Flaherty (mother) Siblings: N/A FC: Moon Bloodgood

Biographical Overview: Born in New York City, the only child of two Air Force officers. Growing up, she moved around the world on a regular basis, going wherever her parents’ assignments took them. She excelled at school, especially in science and languages. Aside from English, she became fluent in Korean and German. The former was learned from her father, a first-generation South Korean, and her immigrant grandparents; the latter came from spending her formative teen years in Germany while her parents were stationed at Ramstein Air Base. Without siblings and with friendships that only lasted as long as she lived in a particular place, Kendra’s childhood was often fairly lonely. She found it easier to relate to older base personnel than people her own age, and quickly developed a tendency towards precocious disobedience.

It seemed only natural that Kendra would join the Air Force once she was old enough. Between her strong academic record and the respect garnered by her parents’ reputations, she was easily accepted into the Air Force Academy. There, she finally felt at home. She was able to pursue her burgeoning interest in aerospace engineering, as well as work on keeping her often fiery temper in check (to varying degrees of success). 

Her work at the academy, as well her early career upon graduation caught the attention of the Stargate Program. She was recruited and assigned to SG-7, a research/science team. She also was involved in the project to develop the F-302 fighters. After several years with SG-7, Kendra sought the opportunity to expand her field experience and go on more exploratory missions. She was eventually reassigned to SG-14 under the command of Lt. Col. Dunbar. 

Kendra lives with her partner, Catarina, who works as a nurse in Colorado Springs. 

Psychological Profile: Kendra is the most outgoing member of her team. Talkative and engaging, she is the sort of person who draws people in naturally when they meet her. Her military upbringing has instilled the importance of duty and honor, even if her own pride and quick temper often stand in the way of seamlessly living up to those ideals. She has a rather lengthy record of write-ups for insubordination, a tendency that has occasionally caused problems on missions. Still, Kendra is fiercely loyal and would not hesitate to sacrifice herself in order to protect her teammates. She has a biting, sarcastic sense of humor that she will unleash on just about anyone -- good-naturedly or not. Whether she loves or hates someone, they will feel it strongly.

Name: David Ramos Rank: 1st Lieutenant Position on Team: Medic Age: 28 Born: Santa Barbara, CA Significant Other(s): N/A Children: N/A Parents: Alberto Ramos (father -- deceased), Maria Ramos (mother) Siblings: James Ramos (older brother - deceased), Clara Ramos (younger sister) FC: Bob Morely

Biographical Overview: Growing up the middle child, David was always the ‘quiet one’ of his family. Shy and smart, he excelled in school -- even if his reserved nature made it hard for him to make many friends. His biggest passion, though, was for baseball. Ever since he began going to games with his father as a kid, he knew he wanted to play in the majors. And, as it turned out, he was good too. Eventually, he earned an athletic scholarship to attend UC Santa Barbara. David made the baseball team and, for the first year, it seemed like he was on track to achieve his dreams. 

Until tragedy struck: David’s father and older brother were tragically killed in a car accident his sophomore year of college, turning his world upside down. With the emotional and financial foundations of the family gone, David worried about how his mother and sister would get by. He ultimately decided that relying on a career in baseball would be too unpredictable - there was no guarantee that he would ever make it. So, he turned to an interest he’d developed through his classes: medicine. It was hard to give up his childhood goals, but for his family, he didn’t hesitate. Knowing he would never be able to afford medical school on his own, upon graduation, David decided to join the Air Force and train as a medic. 

After several years of distinctive service (all the while sending money home to his family), David was recruited to the Stargate Program. At first he was reluctant to join, given the distance from his mother and sister, but the opportunity was too good to ignore. Over the years, he’d come to love the Air Force and his role as a doctor. After spending time on the SGC medical staff, he was eventually assigned to SG-14 as the team’s medic.

Psychological Profile: Shy, quiet, not much of a talker. He is used to being responsible for others, and has a tendency to carry as much of his family/team’s weight on his shoulders as he can. A natural ‘fixer’ and peacemaker. The fact that he’s quiet, however, should not be taken to mean that he has no opinion. He is intelligent and perceptive, and has a keen sense of humor that sneaks out when he deems it appropriate. He is deeply loyal, dedicated, and passionate about the mission of the program. However, his reserved nature can sometimes be read as standoffishness, and those who don’t know him well often do not know what to make of him. He rarely - if ever - talks about his father and brother. David is a perfect example of the phrase ‘still waters run deep.’

Name: Sha’uri Rank: N/A Position on Team: Translator/Diplomat Age: 25 Born: Nagada, Abydos Significant Other(s): Dr. Daniel Jackson (husband) Children: Shifu (son - ascended) Parents: Kasuf (father), Mina (mother - deceased)  Siblings: Skaara (younger brother) FC: Mili Avital

Biographical Overview: Sha’uri was born into slavery on the planet Abydos, which was then controlled by the Goa’uld Supreme System Lord Ra. She was raised in Nagada, a naquadah mining outpost. Like the rest of her people, she was forbidden from learning to read or write. When she was 20, Tau’ri explorers came through the Stargate. Sha’uri was given in marriage to one, Dr. Daniel Jackson, and soon helped him learn to speak the language. After discovering that Ra was not a true god, she rallied the Abydonians together in rebellion. With the help of the Tau’ri, the rebellion was successful and Ra was killed. Meanwhile, Sha’uri and Daniel had developed genuine feelings for one another, and he decided to remain on Abydos after the Tau’ri returned to Earth.

A year later, the Goa’uld returned, this time led by the System Lord Apophis. Sha’uri was captured and chosen as a host for his queen, Amaunet. She spent several years as a host, in the process bearing Apophis’ child. For his own protection, the boy was eventually hidden away out of reach of the Goa’uld. Once freed from Amaunet’s control by the Tok’ra, Sha’uri joined SG-1 and the rest of the Stargate Program to help find the boy. Once it was discovered that he was in the care of Oma Desala, it was determined that that was the safest place for the child, and he eventually ascended. 

After the completion of the mission, Sha’uri’s skills were determined too valuable to the program to lose. Her ability to translate Goa’uld, as well as the knowledge of their culture and politics gleaned during her time as a host, made her an asset. Her background also made her relatable to those living on Goa’uld-controlled worlds and as such, she proved to be a useful negotiator, diplomat, and representative of the Tau’ri cause. She was eventually assigned to SG-14.

Psychological Profile: With a curious and fiercely intelligent nature, Sha’uri was always quietly at odds with the restrictive traditions of her homeworld. Her role in the rebellion was a turning point, opening her eyes to her own potential and inspiring her to become more outgoing and confident. She no longer hesitates to ask questions or to speak her mind. As if to make up for lost time, she reads voraciously, learning all that she can. Quick-witted, compassionate, and with a warm sense of humor, she is almost universally liked by her colleagues. However, she can sometimes prove stubborn, and even jealous under the wrong circumstances. It should also be noted that the trauma from her time as a host is still fresh. She has frequent nightmares and does not sleep soundly. She feels a deep anger about what happened to her, but resists indulging or even addressing those feelings. Instead, she throws herself into her work, focusing on others, rather than her own health. 

[afishtrap]

The article argues against the widely held modern understanding of birthing practices in premodern Japan: that birth took place in ubuya, or parturition huts, which were constructed away from the home in order to contain birth-related pollution; that this practice finds its historical origin and authentication in the ancient texts, the Kojiki and Nihon shoki; that the practice was universal and continuous from ancient times through the early twentieth century; and that birthing women, polluted and isolated as they were, were miserable and oppressed. Through the examination of writings from ancient through early modern times, we found that the "ubuya trope" proponents had misread and misinterpreted passages in historical texts. The ubuya in the Kojiki did not connote birth pollution. The term ubuya in aristocratic writings did not refer to an isolated birthing hut. The instances of ubuya that can be observed in early modern times were few and located specifically in coastal and mountainous regions. Moreover, far from turning women into passive victims of an oppressive "tradition," the ubuya structure sometimes seemed to have met purposes other than giving birth, such as committing infanticide and sexual liaison, and thus invited the warrior government's censure and order for its removal. Irrespective of ubuya, however, the notion of birth-related pollution developed and expanded in accordance with the evolving power relations of the imperial, aristocratic, religious, and warrior institutions. Not a simple story of female oppression, the actual history of the institution of ubuya points to the misconceived universality in the modernist construction of the "unchanging tradition" and to the need to appreciate women's agency in giving meanings to their birthing process. 

Hitomi Tonomura. "Birth-giving and Avoidance Taboo: Women's Body versus the Historiography of Ubuya." Japan Review. No. 19 (2007), pp. 3-45.

This image of the ubuya that shows women’s agency and autonomy dramatically differs from the usual representation, which emphasizes its oppressive physical isolation, the misery of its occupants, and by implication the polluted status of women. By displacing the notion of pollution (kegare 穢れ or fujō 不浄) with sacrality and that of isolation with restful solitude, the Ōbara ubuya website not only inverts the meaning of ubuya but also rescues women’s alternative voice from the dark history of birth-giving practices.

[...]

Based on her extensive research and oral interviews, Segawa concludes: “From these examples, we understand that the ubuya had to be built far away from human habitation (hito zato 人里). It was a separate and temporary building that would be destroyed in time. [Staying in the ubuya] was an excessively wretched and restricted life.”14 The ethnographer’s attitude toward her subject is extremely sympathetic, as expressed in her usage of dramatic phrases such as: “in a hut all by herself in true solitude; desolate and alone, amidst the field, as the cold wind blows down from the mountainside,” and “a solitary and wretched condition that keenly touches us.” She also comments on how she realized that “all women in the past spent nearly half of each month in this hut, and although I tried to feel their fate as they experienced it, I was simply shocked and dismayed (akirerubakari 呆れるばかり) by the appearance of lonely isolation and the subservience of the women of old who had accepted such wrongful treatment.”15

The miserable conditions described here must have been a reality for some women, but these examples come from island, coastal, or mountainous communities. Despite these limitations, Segawa eagerly generalizes from them in her other writings and claims a uniformity of cultural rules related to ubuya or kariya throughout the country.16 In Segawa’s construct, not only did ubuya cover the Japanese archipelago from corner to corner, but they also existed continuously from time immemorial. In seeking “the silent flow of the ways of living and thinking of the Japanese people from ancient times,” she considers that the “problem of ubuya should find its point of departure in the world of ancient myth.” She identifies “the myth of Toyotamahime 豊玉毘売 in the Kojiki 古事記 (Record of Ancient Matters; comp. 712)” in which the ubuya is a significant motif.17 Thus, in Segawa’s citation of Japan’s oldest extant writing, the work that chronicles the country’s origin from gods to the imperial line, is born a powerful trope of timeless ubuya that the inhabitants of the nation have commonly shared throughout Japan’s history. The ubuya trope is a totalizing discourse that fuses the analytically distinct notions of women, pollution (kegare), parturition, isolation, misery, and disempowerment into an unbroken circle of timeless Japaneseness that is tangibly confirmed by its very physical form and ontologically sustained by its imagined mythical origin.18

Ubuya, both real and imagined, played a crucial role in this modernist construction of tradition. Folkways researchers such as Yanagita’s followers sought out ubuya structures that remained and documented them. Once some had been found, their existence proliferated in the imagination of a universal folk. The ubuya, whether or not it still stood, was everywhere, and the same meaning and purpose were ascribed to it: to contain female-specific pollution. From this formulation, it was a short step to defining the universal female, whose undeniable biological essence was pollution. The analytical distinction between cultural interpretations of the essential quality and the essential physiological make-up itself often was blurred. Modern ethnologists constructed a “history” that was more normative than descriptive, and strongly influenced the way society viewed the female gender. Meanwhile historians of premodern Japan whose professional goal was to investigate premodern sources rarely discussed the topic of ubuya precisely because their sources scarcely mentioned it.

In one Niho n sho ki variant, the Heavenly Grandchild had been living under the sea with his wife Toyotamahime. She announces: “I have already conceived. I should not deliver the Heavenly Grandson’s child in the sea. Therefore when I give birth, I will go to your land. If you would build an ubuya for me on the beach and wait for me, that would be just what I wish.” Hiko hohodemi returns to his homeland, and applying cormorant feathers, builds an ubuya. Even before the roof is completed, Toyotamahime arrives on a tortoise, accompanied by her younger sister. Because her delivery time is imminent, she enters the structure without waiting for the thatching to be completed. She declares to her husband: “I beseech you not to look when I am in delivery.” The husband-prince becomes suspicious, peeks, and sees that she has transformed into a large crocodile (ōwani 大鰐). When Toyotamahime learns of this violation, she feels deeply ashamed. Nonetheless, the husband asks her “what name should be given to this child?” Having named the child, she leaves for the sea, and the prince writes a love poem and appoints various women as wetnurse, hot-water giver, food-giver, and bath-giver.26

The same story in the Kojiki, to which Segawa refers in establishing a lineage to contemporary ubuya, is more elaborate and graphic. It includes Toyotamahime’s initial observation that “All persons of other lands, when they bear their young, revert to the form of their original land and give birth. Therefore, I am going to revert to my original form (moto no mi 本の身) and give birth. Pray do not look at me.” The prince then sees her “crawling and slithering around.” Awe-struck, he runs away. Realizing that her “form has been seen, [Toyotamahime is] exceedingly ashamed” and returns to the sea, leaving the child on the shore and forever separating the land and sea. “Later, although she was bitter at him for having looked at her,” she still longed for him and sends her younger sister to nurse the child. 27

At both the descriptive and symbolic levels, the depiction of the ubuya in any version of the story differs greatly from the meaning given in NDK: “A house structure built separately in or der to avoid birth pollution and isolate the birthing woman.”28 In the story, the ubuya is a structure built to accommodate a birthing woman, away from outside elements and from peering eyes, and to allow her to return to her “original form” in her moment of delivery. Nowhere does the story state, or even suggest, that birth pollution was the reason why the ubuya was built. Moreover, it was Toyotamahime who requested that it be built. At variance with this, the dictionary’s definition situates the woman as an object of containment instead of as a constructive agent. In the source texts, Kojiki and Niho n sho ki, it was a self-initiated solitude, not an externally-imposed isolation, the purpose of which would be to protect the prince from contamination. Toyotamahime’s wish not to be seen is explained in the Kojiki version. Her comment on “returning to the original form” can be read in many ways, but considering that the words come from a woman about to go through the arduous labor of child delivery, and gauging from her later reaction to having been visually violated, her words in the original text likely expressed her desire for privacy in the hours of contraction and pain. Giving birth is an occasion that transforms a woman to a bodily condition that divests her of the physical qualities typically described as enticing to men. Interpreted from the birthing woman’s body-centered perspective, Toyotamahime’s request to secure what we would call privacy seems reasonable and sensible. Did she not want an undisturbed place to concentrate on her own bodily process and manage the pain, an act that is graphically expressed in terms of “crawling and slithering”? Did she not want to secure a place that keeps an outsider’s gaze away from bodily discharge and her exposed body parts—vagina and surrounding areas—that in other circumstances are the focus of male-directed sexual desire?

Perhaps a princess of the sea such as Toyotamahime is constructed differently from a human woman. Even so, instead of pollution, the ubuya in the myth accommodates the symbolic expressions of the practical and pragmatic needs of a woman facing moments of labor and delivery. Toyotamahime’s apprehension that her laboring form would frighten or repel the prince was indeed proven correct, as it astonished him so much so that he ran away.

The meaning attributed to the story by the dictionary’s reference misconstrues the broad implication of the source narrative. In the story, it is Toyotamahime who gives the ubuya its functional significance. The entire childbirth episode, from the building of the ubuya to the naming of the newborn, rests on her knowledge and authority. The story endows her with the authority to navigate the birth, create a baby who would carry the prince’s patrilineal line, and delimits the boundary of that rule by drawing the line between the worlds of the sea and the earth. The prince defers to Toyotamahime in the naming of the newborn, which reflects the ancient practice in which mothers named children, and magnifies the idea of a female-centered perspective that underlies the story.29 More prescriptive than descriptive, the twentieth-century dictionary reshapes the meaning of the story to fit the modern discursive agenda; it transforms Toyotamhime’s ubuya from a place of protection to the architectural proof that the ubuya isolated the birthing woman in order to protect others from her kegare.30

Sister Debbie did not have any ugly past in dis journey of love, bc "mai" lord as she used 2 call her love is d only person she has ever given her nod of love to. And co-incidentally, broda Samson also did not have untoward experiences with other lass, except that many if not all d ladies he abinitio talked to never accepted his hand of fellowship in love.. Sister Debbie & Broda Samson are deeply in love, and every1 could attest 2 dat, they r enjoying themselves They are enjoying themselves in this love relationship... We talked & talked until I started dozing and I slept off with my head resting on his lap...He woke me up 2 go & sleep in d bedroom. The ffg day, afta our morning prayer, he left 4 shop early 2 go & tidy up some things bc it was d sales personnels who closed the shop yda..I am not expected in d office for I am on a leave...when I eventually got up, I did d tidying up dat was suspended d previous day...bc of his diary dat I read which later turn out 2 be a memorable outing 4 us...Afta dis, I left 4 d market 2 buy foodstuffs & soup ingredients...afta which I returned home 2 prepare d soup & dinner along 4 him in d office. "Ẹ ku ise o", Debbie said, as she walks to his side and embraced him. ""Uhm! Tabi iwọ ti a o ba ki ku isẹ." I thought u will not be able 2 come here again" "mai" lord said. "Kilode? Tabi e o fẹ ki n wa ni? Even if u do not want me 2 come, I have told u dat I have signed a life-long contract with u, u will neva be alone again, wherever u r, just look behind u, u will see me dia, I shall always be your undetachable tail... Broda Samson interjecting, as he dropped his pen, resting his back in d chair, placed his hands on d chairs arms, said, "Hun-hun?" Debbie continues, "...beni o, nitori tẹru-tẹru labuke nrin, tẹru tẹru labuke nwọlu, emi atiyin ni nibikibi, nitoripe bi igbin ba fa ikarahun a tẹ le ni", whereeva u be, I will always be dia by God's grace until death separates us" she concluded, as she drops d food warmers on a corner, pulled out a seat opposite "mai" lord to sit down, "oru ma mu mi kẹ". "It is bc u r just coming in, by d time u acclamatize to d office's weather, d perspiration would have gone", broda Samson enthused, and then I, Debbie, looked at the "The Light" Newspaper headlines on his desk, he buys Newspaper regularly I have been telling him to stop wasting his money on Newspapers because many of their reportage are false but he said 4m false one will extract true and dat he gets some facts from those newspapers...according to an elderly man, newspaper these days is more or less like a textbook or story book or whatever, it is usually loaded, full of myriads of infomation...so, I have to stop complaining...I took "The Light" Newspaper and was going thru it until I got to the section of the viewpoints, and there I saw a write up " BRUSHING ASIDE THE LIMITERS" by mr IRONIPEPE NPA. So, I asked "mai" lord, "have u read dis article?" He paused to answer, "which of the articles my love?", "Brushing aside the Limiters", Debbie said. "Oh yeah", "mai" lord replied, "it is interesting, d man who wrote d article and I got admitted into the University @ d same time, studying the same course, but in his 200Level he joined d institutuons mainstream politics and he was expelled in 300Level..." "Was dat so?" my love inquired. "Yes...afta his expulsion with about 7 others, they took the institution to court for unconstitutional expulsion, but while d instituted court case linger on, he obtained another University entrance form & got admitted into anoda university...By the time d legal tussle will be over, he was already in his final year & wouldnt need the verdict of d court again...Afta graduation, he became a freelance writer for the newspaper, and as the saying, "isẹ rẹ yio fi ọ han", when the management of the newspaper saw his make up he become employed as a member of staff of the newspaper". "Eh-hen. Someone who doesnt know dis may think he has not experienced much", Debbie said. "That is it, one must not judge people on surface level, "ikoko ti yo jata idi re yo gbona loro ile aiye", many of us have our pasts, it is only when we become blessed dat people see us and start complaining..." "That is it "mai" love", Debbie said. "When I was reading his article, I said 2 mysef, he has grown another wing...The institution abinitio pulled off his feathers, but he regathered d pieces of his life 2geda charting anoda course & path for .for himsef, and here he is today", broda Samson said. "There are so many ways to making it, when a route is blocked by enemies, one shd be sensitive enof to take anoda route & with dedication, doggedness, soon one will become exceptionally noticed in dat new way, but limiting one's self 2 a place, a closed channel is nay d best", Debbie said. "Not even in dis technologikal age, one should not be myopic, whateva evil anyone does, God usually overturn them, God usually change dem 2 one's good...but d problem with many a one is d ability to accept what happened early and take a new path..."Ẹ jọwọ ounjẹ ti ẹ gbewa da? Ebi ti de?" broda Samson said. Debbie standing up, said, "Ebi o kabọ o, o ku irin, mo ti n sed message si ẹ latarọ". "Bẹni ti ẹ ri, mo mọ awon ota mi tipẹ", "mai" lord said. "Awa ore yin na lẹ o ma pe lọta yin, awa ti a fe nyin fun ire, awa ti a fe itesiwaju ati ilosiwaju nyin, awa ti a nje ki oju nyin dan bi i omo jojolo" as she talks she is putting the food warmers on the table, ""mai" lord, do u know dat things are costly in d market 2da, me who does not like too much "pricing", had to join the train of the "pricers" today b4 I could buy those things I bought", she concluded. "Only God will save us, anytime the market women hear that salaries have been increased they also inflate the prices of their goods as it we are all salary earners", broda Samson said. "They said by doing that, they will also get their largesse 4m the govt, howeva, indirectly", Debbie said. "I will also have to increase d prices of my goods too, to get out of d largesse", "mai" lord said. "I will send messages to market control dept's office of d Island 2 come & enforce compliance in dis shop" Debbie said. "Sebi o niwo lore mi lekan ni? Aye ma le o", broda Samson said.
