Navigating the Journey to Weight Loss: Strategies for Success - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/navigating-the-journey-to-weight-loss-strategies-for-success-technology-org/
Navigating the Journey to Weight Loss: Strategies for Success - Technology Org
Embarking on a journey towards weight loss can feel like navigating through uncharted waters. It requires dedication, perseverance, and the right strategies to steer you toward success. This article will delve into effective approaches to achieving your weight loss goals, from maintaining a balanced diet to seeking professional guidance from a premium home health care clinic.

A Balanced Diet is The Foundation of Success
Maintaining a balanced diet is one of the cornerstones of any successful weight loss journey. This means fueling your body with nutritious foods that provide essential vitamins, minerals, and macronutrients while reducing empty calories and unhealthy fats. Instead of focusing on strict diets or deprivation, aim for a diverse range of whole foods, including fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains.
Staying Active
In addition to watching what you eat, staying active is crucial for shedding excess pounds and improving overall health. Make regular exercise a part of your regimen; try to balance cardiovascular, strength, and flexibility training. Find something you enjoy doing and incorporate it into your daily routine; it can be cycling, swimming, dancing, or walking. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week—remember, consistency is key.
Setting Realistic Goals
Setting realistic goals is essential for staying motivated and on track during your weight loss journey. Instead of aiming for rapid or extreme weight loss, focus on making gradual, sustainable changes to your lifestyle. Break your larger goal into smaller, manageable milestones, celebrating each success. By setting realistic expectations and acknowledging that progress may come in fits and starts, you’ll be better equipped to stay committed for the long haul.
Seeking Professional Guidance
While changing your diet and exercise routine is a crucial part of weight loss, sometimes you may need additional support and guidance to reach your goals. This is where professional help can make all the difference. Premium home health care clinics offer personalized weight loss programs designed to address your unique needs and challenges.
These clinics provide a holistic approach to weight loss, combining medical expertise with personalized support to help you achieve lasting results. Working with a team of experienced professionals will give you individualized guidance tailored to your specific goals and health concerns.
Personalized Weight Loss Programs
One of the critical advantages of healthcare clinics is their ability to create personalized weight loss programs that address your individual needs and preferences. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, these programs consider your medical history, lifestyle habits, dietary preferences, and fitness level. Whether you’re looking to lose a few pounds or make significant changes to your health, you’ll receive customized support every step of the way.
Support and Accountability
Another benefit of working with a premium clinic is their ongoing support and accountability. From regular check-ins with your care team to access to educational resources and support groups, you’ll never feel like you’re going it alone. A dedicated team of professionals cheering you on and holding you accountable can make all the difference in staying motivated and committed to your goals.
Conclusion
Embarking on a weight loss journey can be daunting, but success is within reach with the right strategies and support. By maintaining a balanced diet, staying active, setting realistic goals, and seeking professional guidance, you can confidently navigate the ups and downs of weight loss. Premium healthcare clinics offer personalized programs designed to help you achieve lasting results, ensuring that you reach your goals and enjoy improved health and well-being along the way. So take the first step today and start your journey to a healthier, happier you!

anyone else have an ulcer and then in psychology class talk about stress and how it can like cause ulcers and then get so stressed thinking everyone knows you have an ulcer because you don’t know how to shut up about the pain so you think everyone is secretly judging you for getting so stressed out that you gave yourself an ulcer… which makes the ulcer pain worse. And the cycle continues

ratio doesn't realise when he gets sick.
by no means is he an idiot that simply cannot recognise the signs of illness, he was merely the fool that refuses to acknowledge it. he could preach about the importance of one's health as it allowed them to pursue knowledge more effectively and not caring for their own health would be idiotic - but then he'd be a hypocrite.
guaranteed, ratio never got ill often as he took care of himself. however on those occasions when he did in fact catch something, it took him down quickly. coworkers could observe how he wore that alabaster head more often and stayed holed up inside his office much more than usual, however this time it wasn't because he couldn't stand the idiocy of others.
most would assume that he had more work from his students or formulated a brilliant new idea but you knew better. the signs were glaringly obvious when you knew what to look for.
it was a horrible habit, pushing himself to the very brink of his ability because he stubbornly refused to let such trivial matters as sickness get in his way. but since you came into his life, it always ended the same way.
you'd find ratio nearing his perseverance pushing it's end, practically slumped over his desk and very admittedly in an awful condition. you would eventually sign ratio out for him and drag him all the way back home - he was in a dreary state where his mind wasn't coherent or his body functioning properly.
he wasn't a child however, and so he recognised the change in scenery and gladly took the medicine you handed him before finally succumbing to the exhaust put upon his body by the illness. surprisingly, in his half conscious state he could become more clingy but held himself back knowing that you might catch whatever he had - although he wouldn't push you away of you insisted on holding him.

Lantern Rite Zhongli x fem!reader - NSFW of course
Tumblr media
Summary: Zhongli likes reader! since the first day he saw her. Then, during the Lantern Rite, he finds a spot where to watch the show together and do it. The second part wasn't planned. Old man just wanted some time with his crush but ended up doing it.
Warnings: Smut as always. piv. Outdoors sex? Unprotected sex (wear a condom please)
World count: idk, but it's a lot.
(🎨by @gorooon0402)
__________________ ׂׂૢ་༘࿐┊ ⋆ ┊ . ┊ ┊┊ ┊⋆ ┊ .┊ ┊ ⋆˚         ✧. ┊         ⋆ ★
The first time Zhongli saw you was at the top of the city, at the place where Rex Lapis had died. You had caught his attention, kneeling in front of the place, offerings in front of you and your head lowered.
He knew everyone in Liyue, somehow his ancient omniscience had given him that privilege, but you were a complete stranger. The cloak covering your body, the seams bruised and the hood worn, you had had a long journey, but you were there, praying.
You stood up, wiped your knees and adjusted your clothes. You headed towards the exit and brushed against his arm.
“I’m sorry,” you said, your voice soft, just like your features. You were in his eyes the most beautiful creature he had ever seen in his life.
That same afternoon, Zhongli goes to the Bubu pharmacy in search of certain medications; his human form had been difficult for him to care for in recent years. He rings the bell on the table expecting Baizhu or Qiqi to appear, instead, you are the one who receives it. This time you wear a different cape, matte oak colors without a hood, allowing your face to be seen clearly, framed by your hair.
"What can I help you?" You ask, both hands on the table and a kind smile on your lips. Zhongli, due to vestiges of his ability as an Archon, perceives a certain energy emanating from you: perseverance, an unbreakable will accompanied by nostalgia and kindness. He realizes that you have come a long way in your life, that you know hard work and have extensive knowledge about the different nations of Teyvat. He wonders why he didn't give you a Vision when he was Rex Lapis, realizing you lack one. All of this is enough to awaken something in him, a human feeling that he thought he had gotten rid of a long time ago.
"I need medicine" is the only thing that can come out of his lips, while he spreads a prescription in front of you.
"Ah, yes. Mr. Baizhu warned me that someone like you would come" you say, taking a bag.
"Someone like me?" The phrase sparks a hungry curiosity in Zhongli.
"Yes, an elegant gentleman with an eloquent voice."
Those words send a wave of heat up Zhongli's spine, although his face doesn't flinch.
"I see, it's like Baizhu" he finally says.
The following months you find yourself invading Zhongli's mind, and the more he gets to know you he realizes the greater attraction he feels for you. It's not just your face, your smile or your gestures, it's the way you care for the patients that Baizhu can't care for, the way you tell the children about the things you've seen outside of Liyue, when you help Madam Ping with her teapot or when you bandage Yanfei's ankle for running from side to side.
You are the kind of person he decided to live for as a human, the kind of pure soul he had given up his gnosis for, the creature he hates not having created, even though he knows he would never have had the ability to create something so perfect like you.
The Lantern Rite arrives, the festival is bigger this year than last, and Zhongli, who watches everything from one of the tables at the Wanmin Restaurant, cannot help but feel slightly alone. He looks for you in the crowd, perhaps you could share stories of his expeditions as you have often done for a few weeks, but he can't find you anywhere. That worries him.
He asks about you in a subtle way, knowing that people hold you in high esteem for your work as an auxiliary doctor, discovering that you have been making outpatient visits all day to some of the adventurers who suffered a gunpowder accident while preparing the fireworks.
So Zhongli heads to the city dock, where he finds you leaving the house of one of your patients. He notices that you are exhausted, so he approaches you cautiously.
"It looks like you haven't rested all day" he says as he offers you a drink.
"Is it late for the event?" you ask after wiping your lips with the back of your hand.
"No, you're just in time."
"Madame Ping's place is probably full, not to mention the plaza. I was dying to see the lanterns this year," you say, looking over the sea, where you realize that they are preparing everything for the big event.
"I know a place..." Zhongli says, not very sure of his words although his tone of voice hides it pretty well.
So you two end up crossing the water in a boat, reaching the other shore, from where you can see the coast of Liyue.
You are amazed by the sight, and you express it to Zhongli as you get rid of your cloak, revealing your clothes underneath, it is a dress, and Zhongli surprises himself by looking for where the zipper of your clothes would be or how easily It would be undoing your buttons.
The lanterns rise, and you pick up your legs as you follow the bright spots rising above the dark sky with your gaze. You watch the show and Zhongli looks at you, the amber color of the fudistant ego reflected faintly on your face.
You are alone, and that gives him enough courage to approach you, take your chin in his hand and turn your face towards his. You don't have time to react because his lips are against yours, gently sucking on your bottom lip.
You put your hands on his chest and separate yourself from him in search of air. He feels dazed, ecstatic, and ashamed all at once. He believes he has offended you, and regret consumes him until you kiss him again, this time wrapping your arms around his neck.
You feel the same as him, and that gives him enough courage to take off his jacket and tie while still kissing you. His hands go behind your back looking for that zipper that he had identified before, and then sliding it to reveal your body in lingerie. The image sends a ripple to his core and he suddenly feels imprisoned in his pants. He gently pushes you until your back is against the grass, damp from the rain a few hours ago, and he positions himself over you, your legs between his.
“Zhongli…” you whisper as you watch the way he undoes his shirt and then removes a glove with his teeth. You notice something primitive, almost animalistic, in his gaze.
As he undoes his pants you notice his hardened cock lifting the fabric of his underwear, your already wet center becoming even more soaked at the image of him on top of you.
Zhongli leans over you to kiss you as he gets rid of the fabric and is completely exposed to you. The image he gives you makes your nipples harden, and you close your legs even more before the incessant moisture that flows from you. Zhongli's body seems sculpted, his shoulders defined, his pectorals large, and his abdomen marked by his muscles. His cock points at you, big and thick, the head red with hunger at your center and a vein bulging on the side.
You gulp at the thought of what awaits you. You can't believe you're with him like this, outdoors, on the grass.
"We're alone, right?" you ask, and he smiles, leaning over you.
"Completely alone," he says, kissing your neck as one of his hands slides under the fabric of your bra, grabbing the soft flesh of your breast and teasing your nipple.
“I’ve wanted to do this for so long,” he whispers in your ear, his voice hoarse.
He takes off your bra, exposing your breasts to him. You try to cover yourself, but he grabs your hands and pulls them away from your breasts. He wants to see you, he has wanted to for weeks.
"Don't be shy," he hisses, tilting his head, a proud smile on his lips. You are completely blushing, "Let's see what else you have for me" he says, sliding one of his fingers between your breasts, down your abdomen and reaching the edge of your panties. He lowers them cautiously from both ends and when he takes them from you he brings them to his nose, inhaling your essence impregnated in the damp fabric. That only causes you to leak even more.
Zhongli throws the fabric along with the rest of the clothes and bows again, this time he won't pause as much. He glances at you as he spreads your legs with one hand, a lopsided smile appearing on his face as he notices how wet you are for him.
"All this just by touching you" he says as he slides two of his fingers through your folds making you shudder and arch your back, you are as needy for him as he is for you.
He brings his fingers to his mouth and tastes your juices, running his tongue over his lips.
"So sweet, and all for me," he growls.
He aligns himself with your entrance and suddenly you feel him slide easily inside you, it's as if you were tailor-made for him, specially created for him.
Zhongli pushes his way inside you, molding your walls to the shape of his cock.
“You're tight,” he whispers, stifling a moan, leaning over you and gripping the grass under his hands. The way you squeeze him drives him crazy.
When Zhongli is completely inside you, you throw your head to the side and cover your mouth so he doesn't hear you moan, you don't want to make him uncomfortable with some embarrassing sound.
"I want to hear you," he says, taking your hands and putting them on the sides of your head, "I want to hear you moan, scream, curse... no one else is going to hear you, only me."
You look at him with reddened cheeks, completely drugged with desire and lust. The way those words leave his lips, the way he looks at you while he's inside you, all of it makes you feel ready for whatever's next.
Zhongli moves slowly at first, drawing soft moans from you, he wants you to adjust to his size, he wants you to get used to his rhythm as he holds on your hips while he lets low moans into your neck.
You cling to his back and move your hips as if to signal that you are ready, that you want him to fuck you as he really wants.
When your insides feel empty without him, your walls clench around his tip, and then he slides all the way inside, hard and fast, giving you no time to process the thrust.
He does it one, two, three times, keeping your hips static against the grass, the friction against your buttocks burns at first, but then succumbs to the pleasure you feel every time he enters you, every time he hits your cervix and your g-spot. Every time he moans incoherently into your neck you forget that they are out in the open fucking like two animals in heat.
"So soft, so mine," he says between indecent moans as his tip arches inside you, hitting your cervix. You feel that at any moment he will cross into your uterus and split in half.
The force with which he thrusts into you is almost beastly, accompanied by grunts and his hand tangled in your hair. His mouth attacks your nipple, making you feel double stimulation.
Zhongli stands up and sits on the grass, placing you on top of him, on his hip. He never left your insides.
You cling to his neck and rest your head on his shoulder, the image of the approaching lanterns blurred by the tears in your eyes. Zhongli's hands on your hips mark the pace of penetration, sinking deeper into you if that is possible.
"Just like that, cutie, just like that~" he growls as he squeezes your glutes and abuses your pussy with his cock. You feel a knot forming inside you.
“Zhongli,” you moan, breathing heavily, arching your back and digging your nails into his shoulders.
He realizes you're about to reach your limit, and he lays you back down on the grass.
"Don't resist," he says as he lifts one of your legs and places it on his shoulder, giving you a wave of ecstasy from the new, even more pleasurable position.
You look at his face as he continues to move inside you, some of the lanterns fly above his head, the amber fire almost as intense as that of his eyes at that moment. You caress his cheek, that image of him, thirsty for your pussy with the flashlights on him, you want to keep it in your memory forever.
His thrusts become frantic and irregular in rhythm, you feel the burning in your belly and center grow more and more, like a flame of fire every time he touches the already quite abused rubbery spot. Zhongli goes on and on and on and then you feel him coming. The knot inside you unravels and you let out a scream as you mark his back with your nails. You've reached your orgasm, and overstimulation haunts you as Zhongli continues to move, seeking to reach his own climax.
He twists his mouth into a grimace and presses his hips against yours, releasing a load of his cum into your hole.
He's breathing hard, his forehead is sweaty, and his member is still inside you. You caress his chest and neck, he takes your hand and kisses the back. You are both silent, only your heavy breathing can be heard in the air.
"Oh my Rex Lapis" you finally say.
Zhongli smiles and kisses you on the lips after hearing you say that. Maybe in the future he will tell you about his past and who he really is, for now he just wants to be there, lying next to you, naked and watching the lanterns traveling through the night sky.

stray kids as demigods? who's their godly parent?
moony, you're the queen of my ot8 skz headcanons 🫶🏼 this is not based on percy jackson's gods, but the real stories about them btw & either as gods or sons of them, i'm just talking about their characteristics. also YEAH the gods selected are the parents of my pjo au djksndlsndkd couldn't help it !!
﹙ ★ ﹚ bangchan — zeus. hear me out, he's the king of gods. the leader. of course it suits him. it's true that everyone knows zeus is the worst thing that could happen, but with chan wouldn't be like that. he is powerful, we all have seen those videos of him using his leader card. he's also wise, because he has to control the weather and resolve conflicts or problems between the gods with a minimum of justice. his symbols is the thunder, and i can almost see the lightning, blinding light of a storm in his eyes every time he gets really angry. and, how could it be otherwise, his love life. he may be delulu in real life, but he has also that fuckboy vibe. fits all of zeus's affairs tbh.
﹙ ★ ﹚ lee know — hades. shady, reserved hades. he might have a three headed cat instead of the original hades' dog (soonie's, soongie's & dori's heads all in one big ass kitty) but he loves his place in the underworld. calmness, quietness, tranquility, far far away from all the chaos of the other gods. he might travel to the outside just to add to the chaos, ngl, but at the end of the day he wants to drown in the silence. he perseveres a lot too, and he's stern. very forbidding, and he doesn't interfere into his jugdes sessions - he might be the guardian of the death, but he doesn't take favourites. except his wife, whom he worships every day.
﹙ ★ ﹚ seo changbin — hephaestus. he's described as a kind & hardworking god. he's very resilient, doesn't care about power. he just wants to do his thing and be happy. binnie as hephaestus wouldn't be very good (he's too clumsy to be a blacksmith) but he tries. many people reject him because of his physique, but he just wants to help. he likes to create tools and objects that can be of help to the people around him, he likes to fix things that have been broken. he might not talk about his feelings, but he deserves to be treated with a lot of care and affection, because he feels other people's feelings are more important that his own.
﹙ ★ ﹚ hwang hyunjin — aphrodite. hell yeah. first of all, he's changbin's wife (let's ignore that the real greek gods are married but hate each other). the god of love and desire. because he's in love with love and the idea of giving and receiving love and being in love - but he also spills desire wherever he goes. one look at him and oh you're soo doomed. he's an influencer too. obviously not like the ones we see on ig, but you naturally just tend to imitate him a little bit whenever you see him (and he can influence you and your love life and your perception of reality if he wants). also, like aphrodite, he rised from the past. she was born out of sea foam when uranus was murdered, our hyune was born again when he came back from his hiatus.
﹙ ★ ﹚ han jisung — apollo. every single characteristic of the thousands of symbols apollo has as a god fit jisung. god of medicine, because he is slowly healing from his own wounds, and one genuine smile of him can heal our days. god of music, because with his lyrics and a lazy scratch of the strings of his guitar he creates masterpieces. god of light, because even if the sun is too bright and he represents more that shadowy, warm sunset oranges, he brings light into our lives. and god of knowledge, because he's very very smart and he's always watching documentals and reading about whatever he's into at the moment, learning something every day. he's a calm but chaotic god, and he's sliightly dependent on zeus (he's chan's first stray kid after all).
﹙ ★ ﹚ lee felix — poseidon. i know the original poseidon is more of a bad tempered, almost dictatorial god and it doesn't fit him at all, so here i was thinking more of percy jackson. that adhd kid, so energetic and ready to have a good time, humorous but completely oblivious. he gets angry when things don't go his way, or when he loses (in videogames or real demigod battles), but he's loyal to his friends. loyal to dead. and brave and caring and sensitive, even if he tries to hide it with sarcasm because it's dangerous to show who do you care about.
﹙ ★ ﹚ kim seungmin — athena. our witty, wise, smart ass boy. he loves a good fight. he loves to create chaos. but when he's involved, he's always, always going to adopt a strategic warfare, ready to win with the most unexpected but intelligent tricks. he prefers to defend than to attack, unless he's with friends and in a space where he feels comfortable - then he will destroy you and you won't be able to say a word. but it's his love language bdkwnfke he has a strong vision of justice, and will act as he thinks because he knows he's generally right. he's helped heroes when they needed it because he knows what it is to feel helpless and alone and doesn't want anyone to feel that way, and he also is the god of homehold crafts, like cooking (just remember that athena & poseidon do not mix well and it will be even worse if you put them together in the kitchen).
﹙ ★ ﹚ jeongin — hermes. the cunning thief of the great twelve. he's the messenger of the gods, and the only one who is allowed to leave the underworld without consequences (because hades has a soft spot for him, ofc). he's very quick, guardian of literati and athletes, a troublemaker and trickster, but also solemn and responsible. he was the one who gave apollo one of his first instruments after a robbery in which he was caught, and somewhat he always finds himself in the middle of the most famous love stories (either helping the lovers or causing trouble). he hasn't find love yet, but he doesn't really care. he's enjoying his life, if it has to come, it will.
i am well aware that each one has a different perspective about the boys and yess i also see lix as apollo or changbin as ares, but i decided to give them these gods because i think they fit better. you're welcome to comment your opinion too 🫶🏼

Perseverance! One of the youngest and by far one of the most high end of the rovers. He received a spark and promptly became highly developed intellectually.
Perseverance is an anxious creature. Constantly drowning in a state of existential dread, he prefers to be alone whenever he can and wants nothing more than to be left to his own devices. He does care for his family, but he would rather be off studying and cataloging. He knows that he and his siblings are something new and odd considering they were not forged from a hotspot. As such, he's made it a point to learn everything there is to know about his race of origin. Cybertronians fascinate him, and if given the opportunity, he would gladly pick one to pieces to figure out how they tick. Their biology intrigues him and seeing the state of Cybertronians as a whole, he is desperate to figure out a way to preserve them.
There is no reason for his dedication to the cause of preserving Cybertronians as a species, but Mars theorizes that it could be a side effect of having come into being during a time of increadible stress for their homeworld. He likely took on pieces of Mars's own concerns or absorbed bits of the Allspark's lingering power during his development and has since made both into a core part of his identity. Despite his concerns and general willingness to commit war crimes, he's not malicious and despises unneeded violence. He is not childish like his siblings and devotes all of his waking hours to his work.
He desperately wants to meet and speak to Shockwave, but he does not voice his wish out loud. Mars has little love for Shockwave and from what he's heard, Shockwave has a similar level of interest in their kind's biology. He has made it a goal to silently work toward his mission of meeting Shockwave by quietly continuing his studies and earning Mars's trust enough that he can travel. In the meantime, he is content enough to research his siblings and Mars himself. He serves as the resident medic and tends to his siblings whenever they end up hurt. He is not formally trained in medicine, but he does well enough.

I am interested in a comprehensive list of all the different names Jaskier is given in various translations. It would be fascinating to explore the meanings behind each name and any symbolism they might carry. I plan to group together languages that use the same name for him.
Jaskier: His name resonates universally, transcending languages and cultures. In Polish, French, Portuguese, Romanian, Bulgarian, Russian, and Spanish, Jaskier translates to Buttercup. These small yellow flowers symbolize joy and happiness, evoking images of carefree days and childlike wonder. They also represent youth and innocence, which aligns with theories about Jaskier's non-human origins. Another significant symbolism of buttercups is their friendship connection, fitting perfectly with Jaskier's close bond with Geralt. Historically, buttercups were used in folk medicine, symbolizing healing and protection, despite their toxicity and the need for careful handling.
Dandelion: Known from the English, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Belarusian, and Turkish translations. Perhaps the most familiar name, Dandelion, typically appears in two forms: small white, fluffy flowers that can be blown away by the wind and bright yellow blooms. Dandelions symbolize resilience, thriving in challenging conditions and growing almost anywhere, symbolizing perseverance, strength, and the ability to overcome obstacles. Historically used in medicine, dandelions are associated with healing and survival. They also symbolize a connection to nature and freedom, perfectly reflecting the bard’s character. Some Native American tribes view the dandelion as a sun symbol, representing warmth, growth, and the sustaining force of life. This connection to nature and resilience mirrors Jaskier’s character, who, despite facing many challenges, remains resilient and deeply connected to the natural world.
Marigold: Used in Czech and Serbian translations, this name is perhaps the most unusual since there is already a character named Marigold in the series. Nonetheless, marigolds symbolize brightness and positivity. With their vibrant yellow and orange hues, marigolds represent warmth, cheerfulness, and the light of life. This fits well with a bard’s role, as marigolds also symbolize creativity. In Mexican culture, marigolds are central to Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebrations, symbolizing the connection between the living and the dead. In Indian culture, marigolds are used in religious rituals and weddings, symbolizing love, devotion, and the divine. They are often offered to gods and goddesses as a sign of reverence and respect.
Ranonkel: From Dutch, though translated to Ranunculus, which are buttercups. I'd like to discuss the story from Greek mythology that relates to Ranunculus, as it aligns with Jaskier's character. Ranunculus was a handsome and talented young man known for his beautiful singing voice, captivating everyone who heard him. However, he was also vain and self-centred, revelling in the admiration he received. One day, while performing in a meadow, Ranunculus encountered a group of wood nymphs (dryads). Enchanted by his voice and appearance, the nymphs stopped to listen. Despite their admiration, Ranunculus ignored them, focusing solely on his performance and delighting in his own voice. Pan, the god associated with rustic wilderness and nymphs, observed Ranunculus's vanity. To teach him a lesson, Pan intervened. He transformed Ranunculus into a delicate, beautiful flower that would forever bloom in meadows and fields—the Ranunculus flower. This mythological tale is an intriguing parallel to Jaskier's character and could potentially inspire a fanfiction story in the future.
Valvatti from Finnish. Valvatti, which, from what I can tell, translates to Sow Thistle, can symbolize resilience but can also symbolize unseen beauty. Despite being considered a weed, sow thistle produces small, yellow flowers that symbolize hidden beauty or overlooked potential. This can remind you to look beyond outward appearances and appreciate hidden qualities.
Rittersporn German. Otherwise known as Larkspurs, they can symbolize openness and lightness with their vibrant colours. They can also be used as symbols for thickness and are connected to strong bonds of love. Some cultures believe that larkspurs offer protection against negative energies or bad luck. Placing them in a garden or a bouquet is thought to bring positivity and ward off evil spirits.
Vėdrynas is From Lithuanian. Breaking from the flowers, Vedryans translates to Lark, which can be seen as the bringers of dawn and the start of a new day. Larks are symbols of songs and music, which goes great with a Bard. Larks are agile birds that soar high in the sky, symbolizing freedom, independence, and the ability to rise above challenges or limitations.
Blyskáč is from Czech. It translates to "sparkler" or "firecracker" in English. Once again, breaking from the typical flower names, blyskac can symbolize celebration. The firecrackers' brightness and sparkle evoke joy, optimism, and positivity. They are often associated with bringing good luck and warding off evil spirits in various cultural traditions. Firecrackers and sparklers burn brightly but quickly fade away. They symbolize the fleeting nature of moments and encourage living in the present and appreciating life's transient beauty.
These are all the names I could find. If I missed any or made any translation errors, please feel free to let me know.

'take me home' in which the crusaders take care of you while you're sick! note: completely self-indulgent. fluffy sick comfort ,slight crack ,ooc chara(?) dunno ,reader is jotaro's sister (jotaro is referred to as older but wrote w the idea of them being twins (at least 18)/similar in age... minimal phys desc. so reader can also be seen as adopted LOL) ,heavy polnareff x reader coded ,clingy!sick reader LOL ,reader is short (lol) ,some japanese terms used (written in eng) ,french terms of endearment ,light cursing... i think thats everything lol.. :X i also realized a lil too late iggy isnt in here but i promise u he's in another draft for something else i started i could never forget him!!!!
'why me?'
you crack your eyes open to the sun peeking through the inn's room window. you immediately notice your throat feeling sore, sniffling nose uncomfortably stuffy, and fatigue enveloping your entire body.
why was it so hot?
you kick off the covers, finding your strength to roll over in an attempt to get out a bed, only pausing when you feel a looming headache clouding your senses.
you sit on the edge of the bed, holding your head in your hands for a few minutes in an attempt to seize the pain, even if only slightly. when nothing seems to change, you get up, stumbling a bit from sudden dizziness before deciding to get yourself ready for the day.
should i go wake jotaro to let him know i'm not feeling well?
the thought leaves you quickly, all too aware of the time crunch you all were on, and you weren't about to slow down the journey in favor of you getting better. who knows how long that might take?
so, despite the way you have to hold onto the bedframe to keep your balance as you change, the way your skin feels like its bursting into flames, wincing in pain every time you swallow and the way your head is throbbing in the worst way possible: you persevere.
does the inn sell medicine anywhere? maybe i can buy some before anyone sees me, and then meet up with them in the dining room later. i'm usually one of the last ones, so it shouldn't be too strange...
with this plan in mind, you check yourself one last time in the mirror before stumbling out of your room, shutting the door with a click.
-
"ah, bonjour, mademoiselle! what a coincidence we're up at the same time, huh?"
polnareff felt so lucky.
were the gods smiling down at him today? had he done something incredibly noteworthy? it didn't look like any of the others were around yet, either.
polnareff getting to spend the morning alone with you????
'score!'
on the other hand....
you freeze.
'of all times-!'
considering your soft spot for the sweet french man (despite never admitting it, convinced it was one-sided), you hardly wished for him to see you in your current state.
however, you weren't about to turn him away (anyway, its not like you two got much one-on-one time on this hectic journey), and so you decide to face him before mustering up a small smile and a wave.
with or without realizing it, polnareff is absolutely beaming at you, eyes practically filled with hearts and his cheeks flushing a light pink, just from a little greeting? you didn't even speak!
he thinks you look so beautiful, like always, and he's thanking the heavens above for being the first one to see you like this today.
he quickly regains his senses before closing the short distance, standing before you.
his smile is dazzling, and he looks as attractive as always today... you hope your appearance looks presentable enough in this state.
"i was just about to make my way to the dining room, i'm starving! care to accompany me, mon mignon?"
you feel your heart race, as it usually does when he casually calls you by names like that. you still aren't sure why he does, but the crusaders always shoot you a knowing look: when you ask, they don't say anything.
realistically, you could probably say no, sneak away to search for that medicine, and then make your way back to find polnareff in the dining room, munching away at whatever suit his cravings before joining him.
on the other hand, polnareff was strangely attentive to you (something that the other crusaders pointed out more times than not, and that polnareff never once denied but rather avoided the accusation), leaving the possibility of him insisting to accompany you wherever you wished to go, no matter how hungry he might be.
indeed, he'd follow you to the ends of the earth if that was your wish, but you didn't need to know that yet.
so, you're left with simply giving him a small nod, following him sluggishly to the elevator as you allow him to talk your ear off about anything that comes to mind as you try to think of another moment to slip away to attain some medicine.
-
since it was still early, the elevator was occupied by only you two. polnareff filled the silence as he continued recalling the last enemy stand fight, and how they were "no match" for his chariot.
polnareff was so animated in his storytelling. he hoped he might impress you with recalling how strong his stand was and, by extension, him.
though, he did think you seemed a little quieter than usual today, but chalked it up to you simply still being tired.
you nodded along as he spoke, smiling at his dramatics when the elevator shook slightly. it didn't help your dizzy state, easily losing your balance and falling right into the man in front of you.
without any struggle, he caught you with ease.
"woah! mon ange, are you alright? i didn't expect you to stumble into me like that!" polnareff was holding you so securely yet gently, one hand on your upper left arm just below your shoulders, the other gently against your waist, looking down at you to quickly scan your face.
he couldn't help but take in the details of your face at this proximity, noticing the dazed look in your droopy-looking eyes, your shallow breaths, your flushed face, and was your skin warmer than usual?
your eyes shift up to meet his, bashful at the proximity before giving a curt nod. "sorry.." you mutter, shifting your gaze away from his dazzling eyes, unable to handle the intense eye contact for much longer.
"chérie, are you-"
ding!
polnareff is interrupted by the elevator doors as they open for you both.
he quickly releases you, muttering a short apology in his native tongue before stepping out first, turning back to make sure you're following close behind.
still feeling the dizziness, you stumble out after him, subconsciously gripping onto his shirt to keep your balance.
'he's so warm...'
you miss the way the silver-haired man's face practically bursts into flames, red hue matching that of his earrings.
"y-y/n-"
"sorry.. i'm still a little dizzy.... don't leave me behind, you walk too fast.."
. . .
'how can someone be this cute?!?!??!'
aside from the fact that polnareff's heart feels like its about to burst, he can't help but notice the fact that 1) he wasn't walking any faster than he normally did, it was actually you that seemed to be walking slower, and 2) he couldn't tell from the brief responses you gave before, but now, he was sure your voice sounded different than usual.
(additionally, he thought, there was no way in hell he'd ever leave you behind anywhere, accident or not. was that really something you were worried about?)
somehow, he slips the hand that was gripping his top into his own, giving it a firm squeeze before offering a triumphant look back to you.
"i-in that case, don't you think this is better, mon ange? th-this way, there's no way you'll be separated from me on the way to the dining room, right?"
you hum, satisfied. his hand is so warm.
he turns towards the direction of the dining room, hiding his red face, hoping his hand doesn't start to sweat as he begins to guide you.
"w-well then, let's go get some food!"
-
no sooner than later, you both arrived to the dining room, finding a table for six to wait at until the rest of the crusaders came down to join you.
"hmmm, it looks like the others aren't down yet. ah, let me get that for you, mon cœur."
polnareff releases your hand in favor of pulling out your chair for you, pushing it in once you're comfortable before taking the seat to your left.
he orders waters for you both to start before you have his full attention.
even the short trip from the room a couple of stories up to the dining room felt tiring, and you took this moment to momentarily shut your eyes and rest in your seat.
polnareff notices your head hanging slightly, as if it's too heavy for you to hold up yourself.
"here, y-you can rest on me," he practically whispers.
he scoots his chair closer to yours, reaching out a hand behind your head, hesitating for a moment in case you decide to pull away before gently leaning you onto his shoulder.
"are you feeling alright today, mon mignon?"
his voice comes out much softer than his usual loud tone that you almost think you only imagined his concern.
you crack open your eyes to meet his, polnareff's face holding pure concern for you.
"mhm," you nod with a hum.
polnareff gives you a hard look, obviously unconvinced. you quickly grow shy under his stare, gaze shifting to your lap.
"you know, you're a pretty bad liar, m'amour~"
despite his words, he says this fondly, resting his chin in his hand, his gaze never leaving you.
you don't answer, fidgeting with your hands.
"let's see.."
he begins reaching the back of his hand out towards your forehead in an attempt to check your temperature when a voice interrupts the moment.
"goodmorning polnareff, y/n-san."
polnareff recoils his hand as kakyoin makes his way to join you two at the table.
damn.. he thought you two would have some more time together.
you look up, smiling at kakyoin, sparing a small wave before closing your eyes once again.
kakyoin takes the seat to your right, raising an eyebrow at your arrangement before shooting a smirk towards the now-blushing french man.
"oh? polnareff... didn't expect you to be so bold."
"a-ah! kakyoin," his gaze shoots around the room, quickly thinking up an excuse at kakyoin's knowing stare. "doesn't the mademoiselle seem out of it today?"
"polnareff!"
despite the bluntness of polnareff's words, upon closer inspection, kakyoin concludes that you do seem to be less energetic than usual, as you're visibly very fatigued.
"is y/n-chan not just tired? it is quite early for them, isn't it?"
polnareff is quick to refute, having taken a closer look at you himself.
"that's-"
"goodmorning you three, you're up early!"
joseph's voice rings out to you three, avdol and jotaro in tow behind him.
kakyoin gestures at you with his eyes before shifting them to the group and back, silently telling polnareff to do something before jotaro or joseph see.
polnareff is quick to gently move your head from his shoulder to the back of your chair, seemingly before anyone else sees.
avdol and jotaro greet you three before they take their seats while joseph comes up behind your chair, beaming down at you before beginning to pat your head.
you wince at the unexpected contact before realizing who it was, quickly sinking into the familiar feeling.
"goodmorning my beautiful granddaughter! did you sleep well? you're up early today, aren't you?"
without opening your eyes, you greet him back with a short "morning, jii-san," still feeling dazed.
"did you order anything yet? you can get anything you like, however much you like, you know?"
his favoritism is really showing.... was the shared thought between the crusaders at joseph's usual cooing.
"sit down already, old man," jotaro scolds, arms folded across his chest.
joseph huffs out a breath before he retracts his hand, making his way to the last seat between kakyoin and jotaro.
polnareff opens his mouth to speak only to be interrupted once more by a waitress coming by to take everyone's orders.
maybe it's best to bring it up later.. i'll just keep an eye on her for now polnareff thought to himself.
once she leaves, everyone engages in small talk, occasionally asking you something or trying to bring you into the conversation.
as much as you usually enjoy chatting with everyone, you're much too distracted. your skin is hot to the touch, yet the dining room is somehow so cold, you keep taking sips of your water in hopes of it soothing your throat, and your head is throbbing, entire body almost begging you to just get back into bed.
because of this, your answers come out short, or you seem to space out of the conversations.
this isn't something that the crusaders don't take notice to, but most chalk it up to you still being sleepy, and simply decide to leave you be.
-
'she doesn't seem to be looking any better...' polnareff frowns at your state, fighting an internal battle trying to decide if he should inquire about your health here and now, or if he was simply overthinking it.
as you're resting, you unconsciously shiver, something your brother jotaro doesn't fail to notice amongst the chatter and laughter at the table.
he mutters his signature "good grief" before standing up to toss his jacket over you before promptly returning to his seat.
you jump at the sudden weight, looking straight across the table at your brother right as he retakes his seat.
you mouth a quick "thank you, nii-chan" readjusting the oversized jacket comfortably, only now realizing how you were shivering.
jotaro only clicks his tongue in return.
despite this, he keeps his attention on you, having sensed something being off with you from the moment he saw you.
(not to mention polnareff's inability to keep his eyes off of you for ten seconds at a time. even if that was the usual case with him, something was different about it this time, like he was concerned about something. as your big brother, he decided to watch you for the time being).
polnareff watched the exchange, wishing he had a jacket that he could wrap around you. he would've loved to wrap his arms around you instead, but no way was he about to do that in front of everyone, much less in front of joseph and jotaro, lest he be restrained by hermit purple and pummeled half to death by star platinum.
. . .
yeah, absolutely not.
just as he shudders at the thought the meals arrive.
"ah, that looks good! bon appetit~"
you nod, picking up your utensils, hoping that having something in your system will improve your state in some way.
-
"y/n-chan, are you not feeling hungry today?"
avdol's inquiry catches the crusader's attention, everyone's eyes shifting to your half-full plate.
you take a peek at everyone else's plates, either empty or almost there, before shaking your head, reaching for your water cup to down the rest of it.
you couldn't bring yourself to eat much more than a couple of bites, only trying for more as to not worry everyone (though, you usually loved to eat to your heart's content, so even seeing you only eat so much has them concerned, something you didn't consider. who knew they were so attentive towards you?)
you pull jotaro's jacket tighter around you. all you want is to lie down in the thick comforter of the inn bed once more, go back to sleep, and hope that that's the remedy for your annoying sickness.
speaking of, even after eating, you don't feel any better. your headache is still ongoing, dizziness lingering so much so that the room is lightly spinning, your throat hurts no matter how much water you've had, and despite your brother's jacket, you still feel so damn cold!
unbeknownst to you, jotaro and polnareff give you a concerned look, noting how cold you seem to be despite being wrapped in such a large jacket. were you breaking out in a cold sweat?
joseph stares at your unfinished plate for a few lingering moments, humming in thought before speaking up.
"well, if everyone's finished, let's get going shall we?"
as everyone begins to get up from their seats, polnareff is quick to get your chair for you again, holding a hand out for you to take.
"allow me, mademoiselle~"
you crack a smile at his antics, standing up before the lingering dizziness takes over completely. the noise around you begins to merge until it fades to nothing at all, and the next thing you know, you're flush against something warm, your consciousness slowly slipping away.
"woah! y-y/n? Y/N! hey, she passed out!!!!"
even through his panic, polnareff acts quickly, catching your now limp body, cradling you securely against his chest.
at polnareff's cries, the rest of the crusaders quickly shift their attention to you two, everyone quickly growing alarmed at your sudden unconscious state.
"Y/N!"
"damn! you really were... you idiot..." mutters jotaro as he quickly makes his way over.
"OH MY GOD-! is she okay??? what happened?? was it something she ate? why didn't she say anything?!??"
no one can keep up with joseph's questions as he checks over you for himself, frustrated and panicked at the same time.
polnareff shifts you in his hold, bringing the back of his hand up to your forehead.
"damn, she's burning up! she really is sick..."
"what should we do, joestar-san? is there anyway i can help?" kakyoin is quick to offer his services in whatever way he can.
"jotaro, kakyoin, go find some place to get medicine for her. avdol, polnareff, take her back to one of the rooms, there's still time until we have to check out. i'll try to get ahold of one of the doctor's to ensure it's nothing serious."
"right. let's go, kakyoin," jotaro gestured to said man, walking off in the direction of the pharmacy.
"we'll be back soon!" kakyoin called, following right beside him.
"come on polnareff, we should get her into bed as soon as possible so she may rest."
"right!"
"take care of her... she's my precious granddaughter!"
even though joseph meant this in a serious way, it still somehow managed to come out in a sulking manner.
"we promise we will, joestar-san," avdol assured. "let's go, polnareff!"
"i swear i will," polnareff nodded, serious expression on his face before he made his way to the elevator with avdol.
polnareff kept hold of you close to his chest, heart pounding in anticipation for the elevator to arrive at the correct floor.
"did she tell you she wasn't feeling well, polnareff?" avdol broke the silence.
polnareff looked up, a guilty expression on his face. "she didn't.. but she did seem off today. i guessed she maybe wasn't feeling well at the table, but i didn't say anything..." he trailed off, regretful.
"perhaps she did not want us to worry, though, her actions were in vain, considering how everyone is scattered like rats now," avdol offered a smile to polnareff.
"so don't beat yourself up over it. i doubt she wanted to look weak, especially in front of you."
polnareff's face tinted pink, eyebrows raising in surprise. "hey, what do you mea-"
ding!
"come now, let's get her to the room, shall we?"
avdol steps out first, polnareff following close after, sparing a look at you in his arms.
'please be okay, y/n....'
-
"..doesn't seem to be serious.... weather change...."
"what a relief......"
"joestar-san, we found medicine!"
"hey, dont wake her-!"
"good grief..."
you stirred from your slumber, cracking your eyes open to see polnareff's worried expression focused on you.
he stood from where he was sat beside the bed, expression immediately brightening.
"hey, she's awake!"
you sit up slightly in your spot, taking a look around the room to see the rest of the crusaders seated around the bed you're resting in.
"ahhh, goodmorning again! it really was too early of a morning for you, hm?" joseph jokes, reaching a hand out to pat your head once more.
jotaro adjusted his hat, giving you a pointed look.
"geez, you're such a troublemaker, you know that? why didn't you just say something... dumbass."
"jotaro! be nice to your sister!"
"i'm sorry for worrying you all-" a short coughing fit interrupts your words, causing polnareff to gently pat your back to help you until it stops.
"i didn't want to hold us back, and i thought it wasn't that serious. i'm really sorry..."
the apology comes out as almost a whisper considering your sore throat, but it's enough to melt everyone's hearts as they're quick to forgive you.
"good grief..." jotaro mutters.
"don't listen to him, he was the most worried, you know?" joseph teases, continuing his patting.
"says you, old man. you're the one that was barking out demands at everyone, pestering the doctor just trying to do their job."
joseph retracts his hand in favor of pointing it at jotaro.
"why you-!"
you laugh at their bickering before kakyoin intervenes, attention completely on you.
"y/n-chan, it's such a relief you're alright. here, we have some medicine for you. it's supposed to work quite quick, and since you've already eaten something, i recommend you take it right away!"
you nod, thanking him sincerely.
you just begin to realize that you're no longer in jotaro's jacket (as he's wearing it once again), but that you're still incredibly warm before avdol quickly pipes up.
"are you warm enough? i had magician's red warm the blankets for you since you were shivering so much in your sleep."
you nod, thanking him too, before shifting your attention back to polnareff, who had retaken his seat: the one closest to you.
"you really worried me, you know? of course, it's a knight's job to protect the princess, but i didn't expect you to collapse into my arms like that! give a guy a warning next time, will you??"
despite his teasing, his eyes are darting around, and you can see what you think is a hint of a blush covering his cheeks- you're sure your own face is flushed by his words.
you're not sure if it's because of his heartfelt words, his bashful expression, or your sick-dazen state (maybe all of the above) but you reach out your arms to hug his left arm that's closest to you.
"Y-Y/N- wha- that's-"
"'m sorry, jean.... didn't mean to scare you so much..." you mutter, practically nuzzling into his arm, disregarding the others in the room.
his heart feels like its running a hundred miles a minute, and he doesn't think he'll ever get over how his name sounds spoken from your lips (even with your cracked voice).
as much as he loves you clinging to him like this, he can't help but fear for his life when jotaro and joseph are in the same room with him.
"h-he-hey! you must reaaaally be out of it. ka-kakyoin give her- hey, quit laughing! gi-give her the medicine, will you??!"
kakyoin stifles his laughter, quickly handing him a small plastic cup with the orange liquid at the correct measurement.
"here, i've already filled it up for you, y/n-chan. you just have to take it now."
your nose wrinkles at the smell alone, quickly tucking your head back into polnareff's arm and away from the medicine in kakyoin's outstretched hand.
"jeez, you're such a child," jotaro rolls his eyes at your reluctance. "i'll make you drink it if i have to."
joseph takes the cup with a proud "watch this, this always worked on my holly!" before holding it out to you.
"y/n~ if you drink this for jii-san, i'll buy you anything you like, okay?"
you turn back, give the medicine in his hand one single glance before shaking your head, hugging polnareff's arm closer to your chest.
joseph's triumphant smile quickly drops.
"WHAT??!?!"
"that sure worked like a charm," jotaro jokes.
"hey polnareff, why don't you try offering it to her?"
avdol suggests this with a playful smile on his face, almost as if he knew that it would work, but simply framed the tactic as a suggestion.
polnareff, still flustered, only nods, taking the medicine cup from a (pouting) joseph before lightly shaking his left arm to get your attention.
"come mon ange, i know this medicine doesn't ever taste good, but it's the only way to help you get better," he whispers.
you give a slow nod, and he's confident that he's got you.
"oui oui, that's it. i'll even..." he takes a side glance to the rest of the crusaders, eyes all locked on you two.
"i'll even help you. ready?"
you pick up your head, raising your lips to the small cup. polnareff tilts the liquid into your anticipating mouth, and you squeeze your eyes shut once the flavor hits your tongue.
in no time at all, the cup is empty, and you're reaching for a cup of water that was left at your bedside (something that polnareff left for you when you woke up, ready to ensure you'd be hydrated) which polnareff gets for you, trickling the water into your mouth slowly to ensure nothing would spill.
when you gestured you had enough, polnareff retracted the cup, swiping a thumb over your lips to dry them before placing the cup back on the bedside table.
". . ."
the crusaders almost felt like they had intruded on something that they shouldn't have.
the first one to say something was joseph, who was gawking at the entire exchange.
"OH-MY-GOD-!!!!!!!!"
polnareff jumped at joseph's cry.
"joestar-san-!"
"joestar-san, quiet down, she may still have a headache!" kakyoin gently scolds.
"calm down, old man," jotaro states plainly. "she took the medicine, right?"
avdol couldn't hold in his laughter, sending a wink towards polnareff, who quickly looked down at you, seemingly unbothered by your grandfather's antics.
you watch the chaos unfold, grateful to have everyone by your side like this.
"how long are we staying here?" you piped up, causing the commotion to momentarily seize.
joseph checked his watch before speaking up.
"hmm, we still have a couple of hours until we need to check out. take that time to rest up all that you can. by the time we leave, you'll have to take more medicine. if you're still too weak, one of us will have to carry you, alright?"
you nodded, "ok, jii-san."
"oooh that's it. now, you just be a good girl and rest up for the time being, ok?"
you nod again before looking back to polnareff.
"you're going to stay here, right?"
polnareff has always been weak to your charms, but something about you asking him to stay with that wide-eyed dazed look, your cute flushed face, your pursed pink lips-
it makes him almost completely fall at your mercy.
"of c-"
"hmm? will you, polnareff? are you sure you don't have anything more important to do? i'm completely capable of-"
"oh shut it, old man. she wants him to stay, he'll stay. i'll drag you out of here myself if i have to."
"JOTARO! you can't be serious!!! you're really okay with this???!"
"it doesn't matter to me," he trails off.
"but jotaro-!"
you're still looking up at polnareff expectantly, and he can't bare the thought of saying no to you.
"o-of course i'll stay. if that's what you want..." he replies bashfully.
he looks back to see both joseph and jotaro giving him a hard look.
did he say something wrong?!??!
"no funny business, yeah? she's sick-"
"what do you take me for?!??!"
"just make sure she's okay... let us know of any changes," jotaro says, giving polnareff a stern look. "that's my sister, ya know? wouldn't want anything unfortunate happening to the brat."
"of course, i'll let you know right away!" polnareff says a little louder than intended, hoping to earn both men's trust.
why do you have to have such scary relatives, mon coeur?!?!?
joseph lets out one last grunt before he steps out of the room, jotaro following after him.
"we'll be taking our leave to. i'll come back to check on her later, but if you need anything, i'll get it for you."
"kakyoin! you're the best, i appreciate it, really!"
kakyoin smiles before stepping out, back to his and jotaro's shared room.
avdol smiles knowingly at polnareff before speaking up.
"i almost thought i was watching a romance movie, with the way you fed her there."
"avdol!!!"
he chuckles, standing up and making his way out of the room.
"if she's cold again, let me know, and i'll bring out magician's red again. though, she seems... quite cozy for now, so i'm not too sure that will be necessary," he winks.
"avdol-!"
"see you lovebirds later," he waves before closing the door.
polnareff let's out a sigh, looking down at you, already having dozed off, still clutching onto his arm.
'what am i going to do with you, mon trésor?'

later, when it's finally time to check out, you're lightly shaken awake to get your next dose of medicine before polnareff offers you a ride on his back, gently settling you before you rest once more. because of this, you miss the way he's blushing hard, all too aware of your soft, warm body so close to his, and you miss the looks that your brother and joseph shoot at him, ensuring that he's holding you securely. the crusaders talk about their next stop while polnareff is lost in his thoughts.
he decides that, once you're feeling better, he ought to be honest with you and confess his feelings properly. for now, he'll continue to do everything that he can to help you feel better, and to keep you extra safe until then.

The BenchTrio pt.1
I've been inspired yet again, background below, enjoy my ramblings
excuse my english, it's been some time since i wrote anything in it
-TOMMY-
Full Name: Tommy Innit (not yet Craft) but in the stage of becoming so. Voluntarliy. But not really. As always, the Syndicate trio looked at this child and said mine now. Tommy had to comply.
Alias: Just as with Siren, I didn't really wanna go with the most popular choice and come up with something myself, but after some searching I settled on Theseus anyway. LOOK. Tommy always wanted to be a hero, the good guy who can really change stuff and help the others. That's why he settled on the name of one of the greek's most popular heroes. He was the BIG GUY, THE BESTEST OF THE BEST, THE ONLY MAN EVER. However, the real reason was, that because of his powers, he was mostly confined to the healing quarters, he couldn't really prove himself on the field. The name was supposed to lift his spirit, pretend that if he could get a chance he could live up to it. THINGS CHANGED, when one day he was exceptionally let on a mission and stumbled upon a hurt Syndicate member (cough cliché cough) Perses(Techno). In the myth, Asclepius was the god of medicine, he was such a good healer, he started bringing people back to life. Now, the gods didn't like that, mostly because people were supposed to die and to not change their nature, but we'll ignore that and implement my story. The Commission wanted the villains gone and suddenly some guy is helping and healing them?? Nope. That's why they wanted the guy who was the cause gone. Just like in the myth Aeslepius was killed for his actions, so The Commission declared Tommy their enemy after they found out it's him. THEY KILLED HIS HERO STATUS. But he was reborn into a vigilante Asclepius, just like Asclepius in the myth was ressurected and became a god. Of course it was the Syndicate that came up with the name. 💥💥💥💥
Powers: I also thought about different powers, but after I came up with the stuff above, it all just fell into place.
So in my incomplete lore, when Tommy somehow meets Siren for the first time, when he's still a hero, they start fighting. Normally Wilbur would just start using his voice, BUT Tommy is quicker and more agile and manages to touch Wilbur.
One of his powers is emotion manipulation, he touches someone, he can alter what they feel. So when he puts his hand on Wil, he's able to do just that. (warning - my half-assed attempt at writing a fanfiction snippet)
Wilbur suddenly falls on his knees, hands shooting up to clutch his face which morphs into a horror filled expression. Trembling, unable to use his own powers, he looks up to Tommy.
"W-what did you do?!"
Tommy, shocked himself, stands still hovering over Siren. Looking at the image of the powerful villain crumbling before him, he slowly comes to his senses and starts to grab his compromised opponent. Yet, as he's about to do just that, in the last effort of self perseverance Siren lashes out at him, knocking him over, then while still trembling, runs away. When Tommy's able to pick himself up from the sudden attack, the villain is gone.
When he's part of the BenchTrio and an unofficial Syndicate member, he helps Wilbur and Techno with their emotions, that come with their powers. Wil, with his emotional stability, because let's be real, if you could command people to do whatever you want you could go a lil crazy with the power, and Techno, with his bloodlust state and sensory overload that the voices cause.
I think healing powers are kinda self explanatory. Touch, wound go brr and disappears. The bigger the damage the more energy it takes.
Additional info: His suit is not as proffesional as the others, because he has not yet been fully involved with The Syndicate. Therefore it's mostly scraps from his old costume and homemade parts. The others have proffesional gear made by The Syndicate.
-TUBBO-
Full Name: Tubbo Underscore
Alias: Atom, due his powers, no real story here. He was deemed by The Commission as too dangerous, his power too unstable and cast away to "retirement". He didn't want to fully join The Syndicate, but decided to work with them and became a vigilante. He was named Hephaestus.
"As a smithing god, Hephaestus made all the weapons of the gods in Olympus. He served as the blacksmith of the gods, and was worshipped in the manufacturing and industrial centres of Greece, particularly Athens."
Tubbo created weapons for The Syndicate.
Powers: He's able to create nuclear brusts that deal grave damage, but he tries to use this power as rarely as possible as not to destroy too much, opting to small blasts from his hands. However, he must be careful because his power is also linked to his emotions and if angered, distraught or scared he can lash out and burst with energy creating big explosion around him. That was the reason why The Commission feared him and wanted to get rid of him. They also didn't provide any useful ways of dealing with said powers, that's why he was unable to fully control them. HERE COMES TOMMAE with his powers, dudes helping bros.
Enhanced intelligence - my boy's a teenager and can build complex weapons - here's why.
FUN FACT: -that i came up with after coloring the drawing. Tubbo's costume is black and yellow, that's why Tommy calls him Beeboy.
Also, his suit was partily supposed to resemble those yellow hazmat suits (at least the hood).
-RANBOO-
Full Name: Ranboo Beloved
Alias: Due to his powers he was named Spectre. The Commission never fully trusted him, because of his memory problems and thought he might spill their beans. He convinced Tubbo to leave The Commission after him. He was named Lethe. "The shades of the dead were required to drink the waters of the Lethe in order to forget their earthly life. [..] Virgil writes that it is only when the dead have had their memories erased by the Lethe that they may be reincarnated." Ranboo was tasked with convincing and recruiting new members of The Syndicate. In a way he was the threshold between their old and new life.
Powers: Standard teleportation. Enhanced reflexes came form the idea that when Endermen are angered they become really fast :p. Also, the mask he's wearing works as a noctovisor. Where did that idea come from? Endermen canonically see the world in inverted colors which kinda looks like as if you used nightvision. Also he should probably see where he is teleporting.
BENCHTRIO LORE: The name BenchTrio, in this case, was made up as a joke, that all three of them were often benched while still working in The Commission. Tommy, because of healing powers, Tubbo because of his instability and Ranboo because of his memory problems.
If you've made it through the whole text ily <3
