Here’s my entry for @far-side-skies oc challenge!

You get a two in one this month :b

Names: Astennu, god of death, and Femi, goddess of life

Home terra: Terra Shezmu? Or all of Atmos

Bio: About 5000 years ago, a group of humans sought to create a crystal that could give them unimaginable power and longevity, they succeeded but at a great cost. They were transformed into animalistic monsters who could only drink blood. Those that survived the rampage quickly tried to destroy the crystal to prevent this from ever happening again but it began to heal itself, pulling the pieces back together except for one shard, which was taken and hidden somewhere deep on Atmos.

Since the vampires, as the creatures came to be called, could not be killed, they were left to roam Atmos, soon turning more humans into one of their own. As their numbers grew, the gods of Atmos created new gods to govern them, one to bring them death and one to bring them life.

Astennu was created first to bring order to the land, giving the vampires their mortality and their weaknesses. Modern vampires describe him as quiet and stern, he rarely chooses to intervene on mortal affairs, choosing to focus on his main job of making sure the cycle of life and death continues.

Femi was created second to bring prosperity to the new species of Atmos. She gives them their long life as well as their ability to transform back into their human forms, should they so choose. Femi is described as cheerful and loving, often granting gifts to the mortals and keeping a close eye on them.

Astennu and Femi are also mates, with their “soul mark” being a butterfly. Symbolizing their duties to the cycle of life and death.

[holykillercake]

Piña Coladas 

pairing: Marco x Reader

word count: 2k

summary:  You are loyal to your captain and your team, so you would do everything to win. Even shoot your boyfriend. 

highlight: ¨I don´t like when your tattoo is covered.¨

warning: implied smut

notes: Guys, I really want to thank each and every one of you for the love and support <3 Also, picture this as a crossover between laser tag and paintball!

𝕷𝖊𝖆𝖛𝖊 𝖈𝖔𝖒𝖒𝖊𝖓𝖙𝖘, 𝖗𝖊𝖖𝖚𝖊𝖘𝖙𝖘, 𝖆𝖓𝖉 𝖑𝖔𝖛𝖊!

¨Ok, assholes, listen up!¨ your freckled captain uttered loudly due to the music blasting outside of your headquarter. ¨They have Haruta and Speed Jiru, those sneaky bastards, so we´re gonna have to be careful here, ok? They also have an extra person compared to us! So focus the fuck up!¨

The Whitebeard Pirates made a strategic stop at the Sabaody Archipelago for provisions, which meant that it was time for the Division Commanders and Whitebeard´s left-hand and only daughter, you, to engage in your periodic Bubble Laser Tag battle. 

The teams were sorted out, and one would always have an extra member. The team captains were for the first time, Ace and Marco. And despite loving the First Division Commander, you were obliged to take a vow to serve and honor your team and your captain as long as the game ran. 

¨Y/N you´re the faster one here and the smallest, so I´m counting on you.¨ you saluted him ¨Izo, you´re the best sniper we have, so place your freckled butt in a strategic place and shoot the fuck out of those motherf-¨

¨OI, OI, OI, OI!¨ all of you shouted at Ace.

¨Calm down, cowboy! Don´t you think you´re taking this far too seriously?¨ 

¨No! Do you know when was the last time I was captain?! And do you know how many losses in a row I have?! This is my pride, Y/N! You´re with me or against me?!¨

You couldn´t face him without laughing, he was just so stupid sometimes. But you made sure to let him know that you were on his side - not that you had a choice, though. 

The teams were called The Bird Brains and The Freckled Butts. Yes, the captains chose each other´s team's name, and naturally, nothing good could come out of it. The worst part was having to run around with a tag that said ¨Freckled Butt¨ on your gear. 

In Ace´s team, you had, well, you, Thatch, Izo, Fossa, Namur, Blamenco, and Kingdew, and in Marco´s team were Vista, Haruta, Speed Jiru, Atmos, Curiel, Jozu, Blenheim, and Rakuyo. 

¨They will definitely use Jozu and Atmos as sacrificial lambs to get to us.¨ Thatch pointed out. 

¨Ok, so we´re leaving them to you, Izo.¨ Ace spoke.

¨I´m guessing Haruta and Jiru will be doing the same as Izo, hiding somewhere and making surprise attacks.¨

The rules were pretty simple:

1) No Devil Fruit ability could be used. Not after Ace almost burned the entire place to the ground once. 

2) You didn´t have to stay on the ground. You could use whatever you had at your disposal to climb the walls or even the ceiling. 

3) If the captain is out, the team is out. 

¨Ok. So, Thatch, you´ll cover for me; Namur will cover for Blamenco, and Kingdew will cover for Fossa. Izo and Y/N will go solo.¨ you furrowed your eyebrows.

¨Wait, I´m not covering Izo?¨

¨No, Y/N. You are our special pawn.¨ he said in a devilish and malicious tone. ¨I said I want a glorious victory this time. Your job will be to end this game as soon as possible.¨

¨Still not following, Fire-Fist.¨

¨We´ll make sure no one gets to you while you go find your birdie and end him!¨ he burst in a maniac laugh. 

¨You really think Marco is that stupid?!¨

¨No, but he´s a man, Y/N.¨ you gasped, outraged. 

You faced your crewmates, all of them smirking at you.

¨What are you now, a pimp?! Izo, say something, defend my honor!¨ 

¨I would Y/N, but not only he´s my captain today... he´s kinda right.¨

¨Besides, we´re all very familiar with you guys getting business done.¨ Thatch rested his arm on your shoulders. At this point, internal bleeding caused by severe embarrassment was killing you not so softly.

¨You know what? I think I´ll kill you all first!¨ you threatened the commanders.

The entire arena turned red, and a loud 10 seconds countdown began. You put your goggles down and tightened your grip on the gun, comrades doing the same.

¨We´re counting on you, Y/N. Put your freckled butt to work!¨ Ace said and stormed out before you could beat him. 

Still analyzing his request and your options available, you decided to stay hidden in the shadows. Head down, and powder dry - or paint wet. 

The music was so intense you could feel your lungs vibrating with every beat, sometimes knocking the oxygen out. The whole place was dark with colorful light beams flashing in every direction. 

After 5 minutes of resting in the shadows, you opted for what you thought would be the best thing to do, plus you had the benefit of being smaller than those brutes, so you fit in places they didn´t. 

And you just had found yourself the perfect spot right behind the stage lights at the top of the arena. Getting up there was a little tricky, the light rays almost blinded you - plus the risk of you being caught - and you were not sure you could hide there. Technically it was not against the rules.

¨If I were a hot birdie piña colada, where would I be?¨ you tried to channel into your lover´s brain.

That was actually a good hideout, you spot many of the commanders running around the field. You loved how they took it seriously as if their lives depended on it.  

A loud buzz played every time someone was eliminated, although they didn´t say from which team unless it was the captain. You´ve heard zero buzzes so far, showing how inspired and determined they were. 

You finally decided to follow your captain´s order when 10 minutes passed, and no one had gotten eliminated. Your stomach craved for food and you were really bored. 

You´d always choose the biggest arena since guys like Kingdew and Jozu wouldn´t fit in the normal one. So this one was larger, taller, and had more obstacles. Bubbles in all shapes and sizes, picturesque barricades, and tricky mirrors. Finding Marco was going to be tough... if you didn´t have a card in your sleeve. 

Again, it was not against the rules, and you wanted to eat something. Besides, this victory was more meaningful to Ace than to Marco. So you took your lover´s vivre card from your pocket and placed it on your palm, waiting for it to guide you. 

¨Bingo!¨ you spot a fluffy pineapple crown not so far from you. The problem was to reach him before he moved again. 

Your plan was not to shoot him from the distance, you knew better than that. You were going to approach, engage naturally and eliminate the target. Based on the field, the track he took so far, and his usual train of thought, you had a good guess of what he was planning to do.

The path he was taking led you to believe that he was advancing towards a barricade, a good place to hide, but that would offer him no visibility of his opponents. Was he planning to lay low while the rest of you killed each other? That didn´t sound like him. 

 The job that had been entrusted to you within the Whitebeard Pirates was to analyze each mission´s goal, come up with several different plans of approach - or attack - and predict the possible failures or setbacks. And you did all of that alongside Whitebeard himself, and all sixteen commanders. So, to guess the strategy Marco was going for would be easier than steal a child's candy.

Well, actually, you were able to guess his final destination, not his strategy. 

Without losing any more time, you ran and hid behind the barricade, waiting for your boyfriend to arrive. 

¨Whatever.¨ you thought.

¨Don´t shoot!¨ you squealed and threw both hands in the air.

¨Really, Y/N? This is how you play?¨ Marco asked, putting his gun down.

¨When I am hungry, yes!¨ you bent slightly, faking an exhausted state. 

¨What are you doing here, yoi?¨

¨Looking for Izo, I was supposed to cover for him.¨ you struggled with the weird sensation of lying to Marco. 

He hummed and leaned against the wall, wiping a bit of sweat off his forehead. The lightning was awful, but it was enough for you to see his messy hair and those lazy eyes that made you almost forget the mission. 

¨Why are you staring, yoi?¨ he gave you a smirk and a quick nod. 

¨Nothing. Uhm...¨ you bit your lip as the butterflies started to go insane inside of you ¨...it´s so rare to see you carrying a gun...¨

The first commander watched you with a raised eyebrow and a playful grin ¨Yeah, so?¨

The two of you entered a parallel universe, the lights changed according to the muffled beat of the music. And it was hot. Flaming hot, burning hot.

 Your breath was slow but heavy, and your mouth ran dry with adrenaline on your veins. Not because of a stupid plan or stupid game but because he made you lose whatever control you had over your body and mind. 

You let go of the gun and raised your hand until your fingers touched the skin of his face, tracing a slow path to his parted lips. He watched you like you were a rare creature, an angel forgiving his sins or a siren taking his life. His large hand held yours, and he placed kisses on your fingers, the same fingers that would pull the trigger by the end of this. You wondered if he already knew. 

Marco hooked his finger on the belt holders of your jeans and turned you, making you hit the wall, and oxygen left your lungs in a puff. Didn´t take long until he attacked your neck, tasting your salty skin. Your fingers pulled his hair as your body arched involuntarily, cold shivers reaching every part of you. 

His eyes were soaked in lust when he stopped marking your neck and stared at you like a hungry predator. Your teary eyes traveled to his chest looking for his tattoo, but it was covered by the stupid gear. 

¨I don´t like when your tattoo is covered.¨ you spoke. 

He leaned to your ears and said in a whisper ¨Then uncover it.¨

He was teasing you, he knew what you were supposed to do and was torturing you. 

¨I-I can´t...¨ your voice came out weak ¨I... I have to-¨

¨What, yoi?¨ his grin was malicious.

¨I have to shoot you.¨ 

Marco leaned again, getting really close to your lips but never touching them. Instead, he took your paint gun and put it in your hand. You laughed, asking yourself if you truly believed you would be able to fool him. He gave a quick kiss before stepping back so you could end your mission. 

¨You really don´t mind letting Ace win?¨ 

¨Ace can have the victory.¨  he shrugged ¨I have something better, yoi¨

You blushed with his comment, and fireworks exploded in your chest.

¨I love you, bird brain.¨

¨I love you... freckled butt.¨ he laughed, probably embarrassed for the name he chose.

¨This is going to hurt me more than it will hurt you.¨ you raised the gun to his gear. 

¨I hope so, yoi.¨

¨Ready?¨

¨You know I´ll make you pay for this later, right, yoi?¨

¨I´d be disappointed if you weren´t planning to.¨

[aeriedwelling]

hello beloved please tell me about atmos? i saw you mention them in a few tags but i don't know anything about them so please tell me everything

full name: Atmos Cupid Phere - he's like. 20. ish. idk.

he's a Human/Moth Hybrid - specifically a Golden Sun Moth!

very brown and gold and black color palette clothing wise. lots of freckles. gold bits in his hair, antenna, wears goldish goggles up on his head and baggy cargo pants and a sleeveless turtleneck thing idk, and a pilot bomber jacket mmhmm. his eyes are brown with little gold bits in them, they look very gold in certain lights as well yes yes

i don't know what to do with his backstory just yet. im playing with the idea of him being an npc that was given sentience and has to deal with the fact that his actions have consequences now so. finger guns. that's fun !!

his story actually starts in. you guessed it. a minecraft server! called empires - if you haven't watched the empires smp first off you should cause it's really good and second all you really need to know for atmos lore is uhh

there's a guy named joel (smallishbeans) on the server and he is the emperor/king of a mesa biome. he calls it mezalea, named after the mesa and the azalea leaves + moss that decorate the kingdom. the population of his empire is a combination of armor stands with his head, (or "his clones" as he refers to them in canon), and a few i think uhh mason and librarian villagers? that also have his head, so it's basically an empire populated by clones because that's completely normal,

so my personal headcanons:

mezalea is populated by various moth hybrids, joel the king is a luna moth. there's also various butterfly hybrids about yippee

his "clones" aren't wood and sticks and cloth like an armor stand would be in game, they're made of terracotta because that's the kingdom's main export and like. entire thing, basically,

the kingdom started with a population of mostly humans, but over time joel slowly started replacing all of his subjects with terracotta replacements because he finds people really annoying and would rather not deal with them. (he didn't kill anyone they were just forced to look for work elsewhere because well. that's a statue that took over the job)

last two things before we cut back to atmos: the terracotta clones are alive because of the Mezalean Mother Tree who gives them life, and 2 there was this big event at the end of the server's lifespan and all the storylines. the world blew up. it's called the rapture (i think) and it happened because of a demon. i think. idk i watched the least lore-oriented guy on the server hope this helps, /silly

so the two storylines i'm thinking for atmos are either:

he's alive, and has always been alive. He's a living moth hybrid with a family (father, mother, little brother/sister). he's one of the king's personal messengers before his family is replaced by terracotta people and they need to move elsewhere, (they move to pixandria, the other desert empire. i'm rather attached to this idea because i really like pixandria), and then when the rapture happens and explodes the world he gains sentience for. reasons. and gains the ability to log in and out of worlds at will. he becomes a player, basically, and that's super jarring and gives him a lot of trauma yes yes

the other option is he's a terracotta clone and doesn't gain sentience until the middle of the rapture happening. he just. blinks. and then he's here, in a world falling apart, and logs out. he doesn't remember being alive. he doesn't think he was, before now, and has to figure out what to do with himself.

so uh. yeah! after he logs out of empires in a panic he ends up in the void, and then ends up with winston, and now he's just kinda vibing, albeit a little strangely because he isn't used to having free will i guess idk

i have been considering making him and winston d&d guys! i think he'd be more a shopkeep npc than a playable guy but we'll see :3

Scarlet Fever Ch.2 Mister Bug

LoganLight, AO3

Summary: A close save and priorities made.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chat Noir burst into Master Fu's new apartment with Tikki zooming in beside him.

Wayzz instinctively hid himself as Master Fu rose in surprise from his meditation. "Chat Noir! What-"

"There's no time! She's right behind us!" Chat Noir lifted Master Fu and placed him in a pack-strap carry. "Where are the Miraculous?"

His Chosen's agitation and Tikki's presence convinced the Guardian to meet their haste. "Wayzz!"

"At once, Master!" The Turtle kwami flew to the gramophone and quickly opened the hidden compartment.

Chat Noir grabbed the Miracle Box and pulled out his baton. "Hold on tight!" He launched them onto the rooftops of the buildings across the street.

They hid behind a chimney just as two scarlet blurs came into view. One gliding as the other jumped. The akumatized burst into the empty apartment and started ransacking the place.

Master Fu gazed at Tikki in concern. "Where is M- What happened to Ladybug?"

Tikki's antenna drooped lower. "She's been akumatized! Papillon Écarlate is back and if it wasn't for Adrien he'd already have the earrings!"

Master Fu and Wayzz looked at each other in alarm. "This is terrible, Master!"

The Guardian agreed. "Ladybug knows all the other heroes' identities. It would be risky to ask for their help."

"We might not have a choice," Chat Noir countered as he looked out from their hiding spot.

Ladybug- Marinette? Her akumatized form floated out of the empty apartment as Sabine Cheng jumped down to street level. He recognized them despite their altered appearance because of the dresses. Those weren't designed by Papillon. They were Marinette's. They were Marinette's.

Civilians scattered as the red butterfly mark flared in front of their faces. Chat Noir tensed at the sight and held back a hiss. His cat ears twitched as he listened in on half their conversation. His companions noticed and kept quiet.

"... I'm certain Chat Noir will show up eventually. He's not the type to sit back while his city is Judged," Akuma-Marinette replied.

"... Yes, Papillon Écarlate, we'll find the others. Most of the heroes are already under your control."

"If they don't submit to my daughter's Judgment I will command them to speak truthfully!" Akuma-Sabin added.

As proof of her word she flipped the car a couple hid behind and shot a red beam from her eyes at the male. His eyes became pure, glowing red. "You! Tell your partner the worst thing you've kept from her!" The man complied in a trance.

Chat Noir turned away and ran across the rooftops. He needed to put enough distance between the Miraculous and Ladybug- Marinette- The akumatized. It took all his self control not to turn around right there and demand her back. That didn't turn out well for him last time.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Where are they!"  Papillon Écarlate bellowed.

He shifted his attention from the villains that had failed to find his son to the ones who'd failed to retrieve the Guardian's 'Miracle Box'. This 'Master Fu' was supposed to be here! The villains he sent to the theater, the museums and his other usual haunts reported nothing of interest.

He commanded Princess Justice and Verity Queen to turn the place upside down.

"They'll turn up," Catalyst reassured him. "In the meantime Dark Cupid and Zombisou are performing their part perfectly."

"You're right," Papillon Écarlate conceded. "But we're still missing a player. Princess Justice! We haven't seen so much as your former partner's shadow."

"I'm certain Chat Noir will show up eventually. He's not the type to sit back while his city is Judged."

"Then we'll need to box him into a corner by making sure he can't call on the rest of the menagerie."

"Yes, Papillon Écarlate, we'll find the others. Most of the heroes are already under your control."

"Excellent! With your abilities the Guardian and Chat Noir will be unable to lie! But remember, they can still remain silent."

"If they don't submit to my daughter's Judgment I will command they speak truthfully!" Verity Queen proclaimed.

Papillon Écarlate laughed at the sight of Ladybug's mother forcing a man to confess such petty transgressions. He reveled in his victory over the spotted pest! After so long it didn't feel quite real.

He sent them to round up the so-called heroes and glanced at Catalyst. "With that out of the way I can focus on finding Adrien... He has something we need after all."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Chat Noir! We need a plan!" Master Fu reminded him as he leapt across another street.

"I have one." He jumped into an empty building's second story, carefully set Master Fu down and de-transformed. "I'm gonna get our Ladybug back!"

The Guardian's eyes widened in trepidation. "No, Adrien! You can't go back by yourself! It's too dangerous!"

"Paris needs Ladybug!" Adrien insisted as he set down the Miracle Box on the floor. "If I can free her then we have a better chance of ending this nightmare!"

"Even if you could free her akuma you'd need to purify it or the situation will escalate further!"

"Then I will!" Adrien declared. Master Fu blinked at him in surprise as the boy gazed at Tikki. "I've already used your Miraculous before, will you help me get our Lady back?"

Tikki floated forward to respond but Master Fu held out his palm to stop her. "The last time you used the Ladybug Miraculous you had her help!"

Adrien looked down. "I know... That's why we need her back." He looked up in determination as he put on the earrings. "If I had so much trouble with them then we can't just choose anyone else and we can't wait."

"He's right," Tikki agreed, turning toward Master Fu. "He has the best chance of saving Marinette!"

Master Fu's eyes widened as he looked from Tikki to Adrien. "... Then he knows." Tikki nodded. The Guardian furrowed his brow in agitation. "There are two of them..."

"Well, then I guess it's a good thing he has me," Plagg piped up.

Master Fu turned from the three of them to Wayzz, a question in his eyes. Wayzz nodded. The Guardian sighed. "I would join you but my last transformation took a lot out of me."

"I know, Master Fu." Adrien pulled off his ring and gave it to the confused Guardian. "Just in case," he smiled sadly.

Adrien looked at Tikki and Plagg for a moment.

"You got this," Plagg reassured him, Tikki nodded in agreement.

Adrien dragged up some of his Chat Noir confidence. "Right!" He pulled out his transformation cheeses and grabbed the yellow one.

"Flight?" Master Fu asked.

"I'll need every advantage I can get." Adrien offered it to Tikki.

The Ladybug kwami swallowed it whole, swirled with sparks and tiny insect wings appeared on her back. "Atmos-Tikki!"

"Atmos-Tikki, transforme-moi!"

Mister Bug took a second to adjust to the suit. He couldn't just rush in like last time. There were a few aesthetic changes but the important one was the elytron that covered the wings on his back.

"You'll only have a small window to defeat her before Papillon Écarlate sends more of his villains and you'll be hopelessly outnumbered," Master Fu surmised.

"Got it." Mister Bug floated to the open window with Plagg in tow. "Try not to destroy half of Paris this time?" he asked, trying for levity.

"No promises!" Plagg replied.

Mister Bug grinned as he shot into the sky.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Verity Queen didn't exactly know what shooting random civilians would accomplish. She'd rather be with her daughter tracking down the stragglers that dared to oppose Papillon Écarlate. But it wasn't her place to question orders.

So she shot her red beams from the rooftops and yelled at them to reveal every terrible thing they've done. This way no one would be taken in by a liar like-

Something slammed into her from behind, knocking her off the roof. She turned in midair, pulled out her swords and landed in a crouch on the street.

"Just had to be the hero, huh kid?" A high-pitched, nasally voice asked in resignation.

"I can't just leave and let her keep doing this!" A young indignant voice countered.

Verity Queen looked up at someone wearing a red and black spotted suit. There was light armor on his forearms and lower legs. Insect wings fluttered silently behind him. He was speaking with a little floating cat-thing. "Mister Bug? How did you get the Ladybug Miraculous!?"

Mister Bug pulled out his yo-yo and spun it as a shield. "Special delivery, courtesy of one Adrien Agreste!" He stayed above her to avoid the range of her swords.

"Excellent, Verity Queen! Even with the Ladybug Miraculous and this new flying power, Chat Noir won't be able to stop us by himself!"

She grinned. "You're right. He's all alone." Verity Queen stood in a battle stance. A challenge.

Mister Bug glanced around at the immediate area, taking in the people standing in a trance. "You don't want to do this, Mme. Cheng!"

"It's Verity Queen!" she countered. "And I'd do anything for my daughter!" With that she launched herself at him, swords first.

Ch.1    Ch.3  Ch.4  Ch.5

Notes: The new episode gave me EXPECTATIONS. Or rather, reminded me of things I expected and didn't get. So! I'm re-prioritizing.

Also changed the summary a little. Might do more of that as the fic progresses.

Space Orc has a thing with feathers

When there’s no more medical equipment to flip over or scatter, Debbie pauses. Breathes. Tries to clench her fists, realizes she’s broken at least one finger. The tape and splints are already scattered around her, so she sets her hands and checks her guns. Then she goes to her father.

“Pop.” She pries yellow mottled wings back from the three human heads until she can see her father and nieces. “Pop, how many contaminated AIs did you say there were?”

“Forty or so,” David answers.

“How much hard drive space will we need, Yzin?”

“To house forty distinctive personalities? Only a research vessel has the capacity to store that much data, and even that won’t be enough. There would have to be a manual extraction for any remnants.”

“Wait, what’s going on?” Mary asks.

“We’re gonna pull in the fam,” Erica snarls. “We made them, and we always come for our own.” She checks her guns and ammo, gives her sister a baleful glare. “They called her Mommy. I’m not leaving them.”

“Yeah.” Mary says around a sob.

“No.” Debbie says. She can feel herself, pinned like a butterfly, by their stares. “Pop-Pop and I are going to do the extractions. Issac! You find the nearest research boat, and you start downloading your brothers and sisters. Mary, you take every one else, and you take that boat. I don’t care how. You take it, you get everything that can breathe and you take everyone who can think, and you get them on that fucking boat.”

Mary gives her one tight nod, jaw hard and blue eyes wide, her dark curls spilling over yellow feathers like she’s never existed any other way.

“The only thing we’ve got right now is the fact that no one can do math faster than an AI. Every single person on this field is thinking about what happened an hour ago, not the fact that our little world just ended. They aren’t going to notice right away that they have to shift to manual entry, but they will notice well before atmo-re-entry. Minimum loss of life, maximum of saving what Rachel would have been willing to die to save. So. Let’s go.” Debbie stands up, punches the release mechanism on the door, and storms out.

David needs a little help up from the floor, his knees not being what they used to be, but he takes the opportunity to kiss all six of his grandchildren’s heads before he follows after his only living daughter.

He doesn’t even notice the weight of Yzin on his shoulder until she says, right in his ear,

“I’m starting to understand the appeal of snipers. Why do we always have to be on our feet when we’re about to die?”

“So the fuckers know we won’t die on our knees,” David snarls. “You say your goodbyes?”

“I did everything I could to give them a fulfilling childhood and education. As my mother has taught me, sometimes that is not enough. They will be what we have made them, regardless of our intentions. I flew with them, when I thought I would never have the chance. I was always willing to die for them. If there is more that I could give to our children, I would. But I do not know how to give a goodbye.”

David doesn’t answer as he pulls on the emergency space suit, doesn’t answer as he checks Debbies suit and lets her counter check him, doesn’t answer as he fits the air supply into Yzins grappling orb.

“Are you saying that the only thing we can do is love them, and hope for the best?” He finally asks.

“Right now, loving them is the only thing we can do,” Debbie says, firing them out of the airlock.

“Love them, with all our might. But hope...that is a thing with feathers.” Yzin says, powering up her cannons.
