Bittersweet II Cha Hyun Su x Reader

Cha Hyun Su x Reader

Summary: In the aftermath of a nightmarish struggle for survival, strained bonds and lost memories characterize the heartbreaking exchange between you and Hyun Su, where a desperate attempt to bridge the gap between shared experiences unfolds, leaving a lingering sense of loss as you face an uncertain future together.

the first part, kinda ~~~~~ the next part, kinda

Masterlist

~~~~~

The last few hours unfolded as a nightmarish chapter in the ongoing struggle for survival. Your group of survivors had been taken hostage, forced to fight off scavengers seeking harm. The struggle for survival had strained your bonds, particularly the delicate balance after Ui Myeong's inclusion, triggering an unspoken personal turmoil with Hyun Su and the others but also between you two.

After your decisive move to aid the vent lizard monster, the atmosphere grew more strained. Pushing past Hyun Su, you rushed to aid the vent lizard monster, recognizing the fear it instilled in others, your determination to buy time for the creature clashed with escalating threats. Hyun Su and Ui Myeong had disappeared during the chaos, leaving you with a lingering regret of missing the chance to talk to Hyun Su once more. You had seen  his face as the others tried to kill the jelly monster.

Returning to the common area, you collaborated with fellow survivors, sealing the entrance in a desperate attempt to ward off hostile monster attacks and create a brief illusion of security for the night. The atmosphere remained charged with anxiety and uncertainty, survivors grappling with the aftermath of relentless assaults and the toll it took on their collective psyche.

Sang-wook's sudden dash with Yu-Ri on his back disrupted the makeshift sanctuary. Concern etched on your face, you inquired about the situation, opening a dialogue with Sang-wook to understand the urgency of their escape plan. His brief words revealed the desperate need for a refill of Yu-Ri's asthma spray, and with a sense of urgency, he handed you the car keys. Taking charge, you sprinted towards the abandoned vehicle, only to be abruptly blocked by a sudden force, sending you flying, disoriented, and confused as you overheard the end of their conversation.

"Does it matter? We won't be here. I will go with you," Hyun Su declared, bewildering you as you tried to pierce together the events that unfolded amidst the chaos. The urgency of the situation and the underlying tension left you grappling with the unknown.

Confusion reigned as you attempted to convey the urgency of Yu-Ri's situation, but Hyun Su's unfamiliar coldness dismissed your concerns as you came back up to your feed. The following sequence of events played out in slow motion, culminating in a moment of shock as Ui-Myeong aimed the gun at the departing duo, gunfire echoed, and Hyun Soo's anguished scream reverberated.

As Ui Myeong redirected the gun toward you, a sudden push threw you into a wall, pain radiating through your body, ultimately knocking you out. The chaos intensified with gunshots and screams, leaving the fate of Hyun Su and the others hanging in uncertainty.

Upon regaining consciousness, the landscape had changed once again. Sang-wook and Yu-Ri and even Mister Han were gone, leaving a void in the group dynamics. Hyun Su stood among the survivors, his memories wiped clean. Ui Myeong gone. The weight of the day's losses threatened to bring forth tears that remained elusive.

Stepping closer to Hyun Su, despite the heaviness that lingered in the air, you extended a hesitant hand, your fingers brushing against his arm as if seeking an anchor in the disarray that had become your reality. His eyes, a canvas of confusion, held a spark of recognition that flickered and faded like a distant star.

"You don't remember..." you began, the words caught in your throat as you gazed into the depths of his bewildered eyes. It was a plea, an attempt to bridge the gap between the shared experiences that seemed to be slipping away from him.

His expression softened, an acknowledgment of the void he couldn't fill. "Thank you for saving me again," you continued, the gratitude woven with a tinge of sorrow, sitting next to him. Every syllable carried the weight of moments that seemed destined to be forgotten.

A somber silence hung between you, punctuated only by the echoes of the distant hum of the shelter's generator. In that silence, you found the courage to address the unspoken pain that lingered between you and Hyun Su.

"I don't remember saving you. Or you," he confessed, his voice carrying the weight of an apology he couldn't fully understand.

The admission cut deep, like a wound that refused to heal. In that moment, you chose not to dwell on the fragments lost in the recesses of his mind but to weave new threads of connection. "It doesn't matter," you whispered, your voice a gentle reassurance that sought to bridge the gap. "I will always remember you."

Hyun Su's gaze faltered, self-doubt clouding his eyes. "Isn't it inconvenient for me to be here? Shouldn't you be afraid like the others?" he questioned, baring the vulnerability that lingered beneath the surface.

The words hung heavy in the air, a reminder of the fractures in his memories and the trust that seemed to be slipping away. With a steadying breath, you addressed the uncertainty that loomed. "We've had this conversation before," you said, your eyes meeting his with unwavering sincerity.

You extended your hand like so many times before, a silent plea for him to hold on, to grasp the hand you were offering. His gaze didn't meet yours, the unspoken invitation hanging in the somber atmosphere. His eyes, filled with uncertainty, locked onto your hand, and you hesitated, uncertain if he would recognize the gesture.

 He didn´t. Uncreatin looking at your hand. In an act of boldness and with embarrassingly red cheeks, you gripped his hand, holding it tight. His confusion reflected in his expression, you held his gaze and, with a deep breath, spoke softly, "I trust you, Hyun Su." The words lingered in the air, a testament to the connection that surpassed the boundaries of fleeting recollections.

"With or without your memories, I trust you."

His gaze met yours, and you saw a flicker of gratitude in his eyes, as if sensing the depth of your unspoken pledge. A fleeting smile graced Hyun Su's lips, a fragile bridge between the past and the uncertain present.

In that moment, you chose to focus on the small victories, finding solace in the fragments that remained. The weight of uncertainty lingered, but the warmth of the connection you sought to rebuild offered a glimmer of hope in the aftermath of the day's turmoil.

Unbeknownst to you, this heartfelt exchange marked the last time you would speak with Hyun Su for a very long time.

p.s. yes, late 2010s are already nostalgic enough that it can be its own au with its own style and tech

part of the loveless anthology

you always experience something weird when the train is nearing cheongdam. it is as if your senses are being attacked in a sweep when goosebumps form in a wave before it calms down. then it starts again as the train approaches the outdoor part of its journey to cross the body of water. the lights inside start to flicker as you see outside to view the han river from under the bridge, yet sometimes, it's not a river, but a beach.

the sky is the clear turquoise blue that reflects the seawater. the view of the river bank turns into sand that's lining the barrier of land and sea. you could sometimes hear the sound of crashing waves from it even if you only see the setting sky as it changes from day to night. though now, that turquoise sky is getting darker and darker, even darker than the sunset you usually see when you cross on the hanging tracks from the cheongdam bridge to ttukseom park.

then you see it: the visions.

quick timelapse of the neon street, crumbling buildings crashing down as their support couldn't hold on, humanoid beings who can fly as they attacked something dark. only the color orange highlights everything before you see flickers of a woman with long platinum blonde locks and white dress, calling out your name as your eyes are trying to focus on her heterochromia ones.

you've always held onto the nearest surface as you glance at the dots turning red between cheongdam and ttukseom park stations, breathing in and out as you felt your palm getting sweatier when you felt the whole compartment seemed to shake more and more as you approached the bridge and let the light from outside coming in. recently, the shakiness is getting rougher and the vision more frequent. but, you've always try to comfort yourself and see the boy across from you if he is okay.

because it seems like you're not the only one to notice all the things you've experienced, especially when you see him mumbling whilst staring at the red dots lighting up on top of the door when the train approaches the bridge.

Stray Kids Members as Taylor Swift Albums

Bang Chan | Folklore

"You drew stars around my scars, but now I'm bleedin’. ‘Cause I knew you, steppin' on the last train marked me like a bloodstain, I...I knew you tried to change the ending, Peter losing Wendy, I...I knew you leavin' like a father, running like water, I...And when you are young, they assume you know nothing. But I knew you’d linger like a tattoo kiss. I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs. The smell of smoke would hang around this long, ‘cause I knew everything when I was young."

Lee Know | Lover

"My love was as cruel as the cities I lived in. Everyone looked worse in the light. There are so many lines that I've crossed unforgiven. I’ll tell you the truth, but never goodbye. I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you. I don't wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you. I’ve been sleeping so long in a 20-year dark night and now I see daylight, I only see daylight." Changbin | Evermore

"I'm like the water when your ship rolled in that night. Rough on the surface, but you cut through like a knife. And if it was an open-shut case I never would've known from that look on your face. Lost in your current like a priceless wine. The more that you say, the less I know. Wherever you stray, I follow. I’m begging for you to take my hand. Wreck my plans, that’s my man." Hyunjin | Fearless

"I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain. It’s 2 a.m. and I'm cursing your name. I’m so in love that I acted insane. And that's the way I loved you. Breaking down and coming undone. It’s a roller coaster kind of rush and I never knew I could feel that much. And that's the way I loved you." Han Jisung | Midnights

“I find myself running home to your sweet nothings. Outside, they're push and shoving. You’re in the kitchen humming. All that you ever wanted from me was nothing. Industry disruptors and soul deconstructors and smooth-talking hucksters out glad-handing each other. And the voices that implore, 'You should be doing more' to you, I can admit that I’m just too soft for all of it." Felix | Speak Now

"This night is flawless, don't you let it go. I’m wonderstruck, dancing around all alone. I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you. This is me praying that this was the very first page. Not where the story line ends. My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again. These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon. I was enchanted to meet you." Seungmin | Reputation

"All my flowers grew back as thorns. Windows boarded up after the storm. He built a fire just to keep me warm. All the drama queens taking swings, all the jokers dressin' up as kings. They fade to nothin' when I look at him. And I know I make the same mistakes every time. Bridges burn, I never learn, at least I did one thing right. I did one thing right. I’m laughin' with my lover, makin’ forts under covers. Trust him like a brother, yeah, you know I did one thing right. Starry eyes sparkin' up my darkest night." I.N | 1989

"You got that James Dean daydream look in your eye and I got that red lip classic thing that you like. And when we go crashing down, we come back every time ‘cause we never go out of style, we never go out of style. You got that long hair, slicked back, white T-shirt and I got that good girl faith and a tight little skirt. And when we go crashing down, we come back every time ‘cause we never go out of style, we never go out of style."

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

I was inspired by a reel/tiktok I saw of Stray Kids being assigned a Taylor Swift song. As well as a Minsung reel featuring a Taylor song and I just felt like Lee Know gave me Lover vibes and Jisung gave me Midnights vibes and I ran with it. Just my silly opinion. All for fun. Definitely see her albums being interchangeable for any of them. Graphics by @saradika-graphics!

Nine new Star Wars fics by me!

I participated in the Star Wars Rare Pair 2023 Exchange, and somehow ended up writing nine several fics, and not all of them Luke/Leia! The majority of them are very short "treats" that I wrote for the BINGO challenge, but they were all fun so I wanted to share them here. Hope you enjoy!

Bridging the Distance (Luke/Leia/Han Solo), 3,389 words, Teen+ (written for Ekevka)

It was like trying to catch moths. It was like trying to hold onto water that kept flowing out of his hands. Luke and Leia belonged together, two halves of a whole, and yet they refused to admit it. Han was just privileged enough to be there to witness it, but he was also determined, he hoped, to be the one who could be the catalyst.

----

Sealed Another Fate (Luke/Lando Calrissian/Darth Vader), 477 words, Teen+ (written as a Treat for Skyrissian (ErinacchiLove))

The Rebellion has fallen and Lando fears all hope is lost...

----

A Light in the Dark (Luke/Leia/Darth Vader), 2,030 words, Mature (written for peasina)

Darth Vader shares in an unexpectedly delicious Tatooine slave gifted to him by his Sith Lord daughter, Leia Skywalker

----

The Truth In Her Eyes (Luke/Leia, Leia/Jabba), 538 words, Explicit (written as a Treat for maxlane)

Luke and Leia are captured by the Hutt crime lord Jabba, but while he may have his way with their bodies he cannot touch their souls.

----

Twin Treat (Luke/Leia/Poe Dameron), 687 words, G-rated (written as a Treat for PoliticalPadmé (magnetgirl)).

Luke brings home a treat to share with Leia. (AU where the twins run a Jedi Academy together, post-RotJ, pre-TFA, alternate timeline.)

----

Worth the Wait (Luke/Leia, Leia/Mon Mothma, Luke/Leia/Mon Mothma), 1,767 words, Explicit

Leia and Mon crash land on a planet near a black hole, where time passes fifteen years more slowly than the rest of the universe. When they are finally rescued, Luke is almost sixty, and Leia wants to make up for lost time... and introduce him to her new lover.

----

Useful After All (Leia/Darth Vader, Leia/Wilhuff Tarkin), 539 words, Teen+ (written as a Treat for Tantive404)

Tarkin informs Leia that the Emperor has found a use for her after all.

----

"Crossover With Star Trek" (Leia/Deanna Troi, Luke/Leia, Luke/Leia/Deanna Troi), 637 words, Explicit (written as a Treat for PoliticalPadmé (magnetgirl))

Deanna is in for quite the surprise when she attempts to seduce Leia.

----

A Little Extra (Luke/Leia/Boba Fett), 451 words, Explicit written as a treat for Sleepy_fan)

Luke and Leia look over the bounty hunter in the room.

You Have My Attention: New Jedi Order First Lines

Ok, so Vector Prime wasn't my first Star Wars EU book; that would have been at least semi logical and honestly logic and hinged-ness is not how I would characterize either my experience with the Star Wars fandom, the EU, or just Star Wars in general. We have Anakin Skywalker, hinged is not the vibe. That said, Vector Prime was my fourth Star Wars book, and despite some flaws and peaks and valleys in quality, the New Jedi Order holds a very nostalgic place in my heart. Let's see how the authors of the New Jedi Order books catch readers.

It was too peaceful out here, surrounded by the vacuum of space and with only the continual hum of the twin ion drives breaking the silence.

-- R. A. Salvatore, Vector Prime

Standing there, on the bridge of his Nebulon-B frigate, the pirate Urias Xhaxin clasped his cybernetic left hand to the small of his back with his right hand. He stared straight ahead at the tunnel of light into which his ship, the Free Lance, flew.

-- Michael A. Stackpole, Dark Tide I: Onslaught

Shedao Shai stood in his chamber, deep within the living ship Legacy of Torment. Tall and lean, long-limbed with hooks and barbs at wrist, elbow, knee, and heel, the Yuuzhan Vong warrior had pulled himself up to his full height and held his open hands out away from his sides.

-- Michael A. Stackpole, Dark Tide II: Ruin

If the system's primary was distressed by the events that had transpired on and about the fourth closest of its brood, it betrayed noting to the naked eye. Saturating the local space with golden radiance, the star was as unperturbed now as it was before the battle had begun.

-- James Luceno, Agents of Chaos I: Hero's Trial

It was morning in Gyndine's capital city, though that fact was scarcely evident to anyone on the surface. The rising sun, when glimpsed at all, was a blanched disk behind roiling smoke belched from flaming forests and buildings.

-- James Luceno, Agents of Chaos II: Jedi Eclipse

Lieutenant Jaina Solo rolled her x-wing fighter up on its port S-foil and shoved her throttle forward. A seed-shaped Yuuzhan Vong coralskipper had been harrying her wingmate.

-- Kathy Tyers, Balance Point

Outside the medcenter viewport, a ragged crescent of white twinkles known as the Drall's Hat drooped across the violet sky, its lower tip slashing through the Ronto to touch a red star named the Eye of the Pirate. The constellations above Corellia had not changed since Han Solo was a child, when he had spent his nights contemplating the galactic depths and dreaming of life as a starship captain.

-- Troy Denning, "Recovery"

Dorsk 82 ducked behind the stone steps of the quay, just in time to dodge a blaster bolt from across the water. "Hurry on board my ship," he told his charges. "They've found us again."

-- Greg Keyes, Edge of Victory I: Conquest

Blood, drifting in starlight. That was the first thing Jacen Solo saw when he opened his eyes. It had beaded into what looked, in the dim, like polished black pearls reflecting the ancient starlight filtering through the transparisteel a meter or so away.

-- Greg Keyes, Edge of Victory II: Rebirth

The dark sliver of a distant starliner crept into view, a blue needle of ion efflux pushing it across the immense sweep of a brilliant orange sun. Like a million such suns in the Core region alone, this one lacked any world with a civilization or even a sapient species, and it was too inconsequential for any name except an obsolete Imperial survey number. With so much emptiness, so many planets untouched, it seemed to Jaina Solo that there should have been no need for fighting, that there should have been room for all.

-- Troy Denning, Star by Star

A sunrise corona limned one edge of the planet Myrkr, setting its vast northern forests alight with a verdant glow. Viewed from space, the planet appeared as lush and green as Yuuzhan'tat, the long-lost homeworld of Yuuzhan Vong legend.

-- Elaine Cunningham, Dark Journey

"A god cannot die," Charat Kraal said. "Therefore it can have no fear of death. So who is braver, a god or a mortal?"

--Aaron Allston, Enemy Lines I: Rebel Dream

Jaina Solo banked her X-wing starfighter into as tight a turn as she could endure. The g-forces of her maneuver crushed her into her seat, but she called upon the force to protect her, to keep her centimeters away from the edge of blackout.

-- Aaron Allston, Enemy Lines II: Rebel Stand

Outside the universe, there is nothing. This nothing is called hyperspace. A tiny bubble of existence hangs in the nothing. This bubble is called a ship.

-- Matthew Stover, Traitor

As she sat in the chair that was hers by right of death, she raised her eyes to the cold faraway stars. Checklists buzzed distantly in her mind and her hands moved over the controls, but her thoughts flew elsewhere, amid the chill infinitude. Searching...

-- Walter Jon Williams, Destiny's Way

Saba Sebatyne knew the moment she emerged from hyperspace that Barab I was burning. Where the planet normally displayed a cloudy, gray face lit the glow of its primary, a sullen red dwarf, her infrared sensitive eyes now saw a fiery inferno.

-- Sean Williams and Shane Dix, Force Heretic I: Remnant

The man who was no longer a man stood before an alien who was not what it seemed. "Everything is in place," the man said.

--Sean Williams and Shane Dix, Force Heretic II: Refugee

Neither moved; neither spoke. They stared unflinchingly into each other's eyes. Surrounding her, hidden by shadows, Tahiri could sense an alien landscape.

-- Sean Williams and Shane Dix, Force Heretic III: Reunion

Three kilometers beneath the surface of Yuuzhan'tar--the world once known as Courscant--the sound of chanting drifted up a shaft nearly as wide as it was deep, the melancholy strains yearning toward the few distant starts that could be seen from the bottom. In the pale blue light of lumen reeds, the faces of the chanters appeared ravaged, their bodies misshapen.

-- Greg Keyes, The Final Prophecy

Selvaris, faintly green against a sweep of white-hot stars, and with only one tiny moon for companionship, looked like the loneliest of planets. Almost five years into a war that had seen the annihilation of peaceful worlds, the disruption of major hyperlanes, the fall and occupation of Coruscant itself, that fact that such a backwater place could rise to sudden significance was perhaps the clearest measure of the frightful shadow the Yuuzhan Vong had cast across the galaxy.

-- James Luceno, The Unifying Force

List of things that could happen in “Frozen 3” (even some I don't care about and some I'm 100% against).

The KristAnna wedding: this is a complicated topic for me since the franchise has the habit of liking the passage of time of 3 years and I don't believe they will change that, although the wedding apparently happens in less than 1 year after “Frozen 2” . I would bet that the wedding will be the first scene of the movie (or one of the first ones) and then there will be a time skip like it happened in the other 2 movies.

ElsaMaren's canonization: what I would most like to see happen (https://at.tumblr.com/ericmicael/will-elsamaren-be-canon-in-f3/h3b8byamyk9v). If they want to make it implicit, there are a thousand and one ways to confirm the relationship between Elsa and Honeymaren without running the risk of being boycotted... Although I would like a kiss to happen.

Kristoff's past: I don't think it's a topic that needs to be addressed further because there's going to be a book about it ("Lost Legends: The Fixer Upper"), but it's a possibility, it just won't be the focus. And technically Kristoff is already Northuldra (Kristoff is a Sami and Sami are the inspirations for the tribe) so I don't think there will be any revelations about that.

More about Fifth Spirit: today this term is almost not said in the franchise (I don't remember the last time it was), Jennifer Lee has already given a new context by bringing Anna into the equation (it seems just a better context on the dynamics of the bridge of the anything else) and Elsa's official title is Snow Queen. I would not be surprised by the exclusion instead of deepening.

Explanations about Ahtohallan: unlike Quinto Espirito, the Goddess of Memories is something still explored, and in fact the two terms may even be put together in a muted way. There is a whole theory created through a parchment about the origin of the world involving Ahtohallan, maybe they confirm it.

More on King Runeard, Agnarr and Iduna's past: A lot of the three's past is being covered in books like Queen Rita ("Dangerous Secrets", "Polar Nights"), so I don't think it will be... But the background of Iduna's family has not yet been addressed, there is only a mention that the entire family and original tribe of Anna and Elsa's mother was killed without further explanation. If I'm going to bet on one of those pasts coming to light, I'd bet on the past of Iduna's family.

Hans' revenge: he has already returned twice in the franchise (https://at.tumblr.com/ericmicael/disney-magic-kingdoms-hans-and-his-two-comebacks/p5nullsk82gv) and maybe there will be a third and this time canonical? It's an easy plot idea and would work as a farewell and finally have a match against Anna. But to me it makes as much sense as Palpatine's return in "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker", both arcs are already concluded and while Palpatine was brought in to take Kylo/Ben out of the villain arc that was built up in VII and VIII and generating cheap fanservice, Hans wouldn't be much different: Anna already had her arc concluded with Hans and between bringing the King of the Southern Islands as a villain or creating an original character with new philosophies, I much prefer an original character. But to please the prince's fans he may come back to be humiliated again as a recurring joke.

RETCON – Elsa returns to live in Arendelle: it would be a retcon because Elsa herself has said that she feels more like herself in the Enchanted Forest than in the castle and that now she has both worlds. I think it's impossible to happen since, as the franchise said, it reinforces that the end of F2 was right.

EXTRA THINGS THAT MAY HAPPEN... ARE MORE PERSONAL WISHES THAN THEORIES:

Anna fight someone using a sword.

Ryder and Kristoff communicate with the reindeer and use it to save the day.

Kristoff being frozen: Anna was frozen in F1 and Elsa was frozen in F2, it will be funny if Kristoff is frozen in F3 or cite that fact.

Yelana passes command of the Northuldra tribe to Honeymaren.

Characters from the Frozenverse (those who didn't first appear in a movie but in a book, comic, etc.) make an appearance or are mentioned: Of all this list I really believe that this is the least likely to happen..., but in the "Frozen 3" novelization there will be some characters, that's for sure.

Mention of the "Tangled" universe: While the two universes were likely created from different centuries ("Tangled" in the 1780s and "Frozen" in the 1840s) over time, the insistence on creating easter eggs linking them (although taking a visual comparison they are only present in the Frozenverse) or even mention these easter eggs (like the quiz with the cast of “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series”). But I advise you not to get carried away with this, because if it happens it will be just a sentence or an easter egg with the same screen time as the moment that happened in “Frozen 1”.

Elsa fighting ships: technically this already happened in 'Polar Nights', but not in the way I wanted. I want a really powerful manifestation of Elsa that surpasses Eternal Winter, and no, manifestations of her power in "Frozen 2" don't even come close to that moment where she freezes without realizing an entire kingdom in a very short time.

Duets between KristAnna, Elsa and Anna, ElsaMaren, Ryder with Kristoff, etc. Olaf and Sven can be part of that. By the way, still talking about music, I really hope to have an opening sequence similar to the dynamics of “Some Thing Never Change”, but showing Arendelle and the Enchanted Forest at the same time.

Greater depth in the relationship between Mattias and Halima.

The trolls and Yelana are more important: They are the greatest living sources of knowledge about magic and in "Frozen 2" it almost doesn't matter... although there is an interesting detail about it: Honeymaren became the new source of knowledge about magic by learning from Yelana and passing the knowledge on to Elsa.

Yelana tells stories about Iduna's past in the tribe: unfortunately I have less and less hope for that to happen, in “Polar Nights” Elsa technically replaces that role of Yelana with Ahtohallan.

Focus on the Industrial Revolution: this is a theory of mine that came up in F2 because of a quote from Olaf (“Oh! My theory about advancing technologies as both our savior and our doom?”) and that had some more elements in the comics reinforcing it 19th century technology like trains, photography, etc. Magic vs Technology for me will be one of the themes of “Frozen 3”.

That the fact that Anna and Elsa are living far from each other is relevant: as I said in the “retcon” topic, the franchise reinforces that the ending of F2 is correct, but in such an objective way that there is almost no time to address the topic “ separation” (although I don't think that's the right term to refer to the end of F2). I wanted it to have a conversation about that and to have lessons about love and family, as that's the focus of the franchise.

Let no new funko pops appear, I mean elemental spirits: I'm not saying I don't like Gale/Bruni/Earth Giant/Nokk, but let's admit that their main function is commercial, the second is related to pleasing children and maybe just the third function is plot related. Honestly what I most want to happen in "Frozen 3" is to develop what was presented in "Frozen 2" and was not developed instead of creating even more elements that will probably not be satisfactorily addressed in its debut.

Family photos: it was presented that there is photography in the franchise and if they don't use it until exhaustion, for me it will be a big waste.

I have realized that if I’m going to be posting about Battlestar Galactica characters on here I ought to introduce them for the people who have no clue what I’m on about. So here’s a post of the main characters in the 1978 Battlestar Galactica TV show and a summary of the plot:

So the plot is this: the Cylons, a race of sentient machines, with the help of a human traitor, attack the 12 colonies of humans during an alleged “peace ceremony” where the two races were supposed to unite. They manage to destroy all but one of the human Battlestars and bomb all the human cities on the colony worlds (the colonies are all named after the astrology signs btw, most of the main characters are Capricans, because the Galactica was assigned to protect Caprica). The survivors of this devastating attack then gather every space-worthy ship they can find and fall under the protection of the last Battlestar, Galactica. Where is the Galactica going, you ask? Why to the 13th colony, to Earth, of course! Earth, in their culture, is a legendary planet, the “lost tribe”. The Galacticans are headed for it, hoping to find a home and peace from the cylons.

Now, on to the characters!

First off we have Captain Apollo. He is a fighter pilot and the leader of Blue Squadron- one of the squadrons of colonial viper ships that defend the Galactica from attacks. He’s the son of Commander Adama and the adoptive father of Boxy. He’s usually pretty levelheaded, but not immune to occasional moments of foolishness (like flying into a void he didn’t know he could get out of). He’s thoughtful and empathetic and cares about other people very quickly.

And then there’s lieutenant Starbuck. Apollo’s best friend and fellow pilot in Blue Squadron. Starbuck is the same kind of character as Han Solo from Star Wars: he acts like a heartthrob and pretends he doesn’t care and treats things flippantly until it really counts. The man’s got a heart of gold and is very dedicated to his friends even at the risk of his own life. He’s also a ridiculous goofball who tries to make light of everything.

Commander Adama. He is the commander of the Galactica and leader of the fleet. He is also on the Council of Twelve, made up of elders from the 12 colonies (or in this case, the rag-tag fleet following the Galactica) who are responsible for making decisions for the betterment of what’s left of their people. He is the father of Apollo and Athena. He can be very stern and commanding, but also kind when the situation calls for it. He has EXTREMELY good intuition about when the cylons will attack, and is the reason that the Galactica was the only Battlestar to survive the initial attacks.

Athena is Adama’s daughter and Apollo’s sister. She can be found serving on the bridge of the Galactica or as a pilot. She can be very shrewd and clever and is not to be underestimated. She is initially a love interest for Starbuck, which I had actually forgotten. xD When all but two of the fleet’s fighter pilots fall ill, she and other newly-trained shuttle pilots learn to fly the colonial vipers to protect the fleet, so she’s very capable.

Colonel Tigh is second-in-command of the Galactica. He comes across as very serious and an enforcer of protocol, but he also occasionally helps people get away with shenanigans of some kind. Basically, the man is surprisingly on board with most crazy schemes despite how on the surface he seems to be a rule follower. Adama trusts him implicitly and it’s implied they’ve worked together and been friends a long time.

Boomer is another pilot in Blue Squadron and a friend of Starbuck and Apollo. He’s a very capable fighter, and often ends up on special missions. He’s fully capable with keeping up with Apollo and Starbuck’s shenanigans, but he’ll probably complain about them.

Cassiopeia is one of the civilians from Galactica’s fleet. She is sassy and clever  and ends up working as a nurse on board Galactica. She’s another love interest for Starbuck too. xD She can be a little bit scary sometimes when she’s angry but she can also be very soft-spoken and kind.

And the baby boy, Boxy! Boxy is Apollo’s adopted son- Apollo married his mother a few months after the Galactica set off for Earth... and then his mom got shot by a cylon a day later. So Apollo’s his single dad now, though the pilots of Blue Squadron, Cassiopeia, and Adama are all also kind of helping raise him. xD Boxy’s a sweet kid, he’s smart and sensitive; he got very depressed when the cylons destroyed his home and his dog Muffet was killed. So to help, Apollo got some of the engineers/scientists on Galactica to make a robot dog for Boxy- Muffet 2. Muffet follows Boxy almost everywhere and the two are very attached.

Aaaand this is Baltar. He betrayed the humans to the cylons and is, for most of the series, working for the cylons to try and capture the Galactica. He’s crafty, and manipulative, but very arrogant and proud, and you know what they say about pride coming before a fall...

Of course this post would not be complete without the ship herself. The Galactica is a massive Battlestar ship, designed to protect the planets of the 12 Colonies against attacks from cylons. Originally, there were at least five of these ships, but after the cylons offered a fake peace treaty the rest of the Battlestars were unprepared for an attack. Adama was the only one who kept his guard up and thus the Galactica survived the vicious attack.

This is the best picture I can find of the Galactica’s rag-tag fugitive fleet, but there’s a lot more ships than this. Forced to flee their homeworlds, these beat up old ships hold the only survivors of the 12 colonies. Without the Galactica’s protection, they would stand no chance against the cylons.

The cylons themselves are a race of machines that outlived their original, organic, creators. They can live on far longer than humans by virtue of being able to replace failing parts of their bodies. Their goal is the eradication of the entire human race.

Alright, so there you have it! An introduction to Battlestar Galactica (1978)!

The Mosley Review: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

If there's one name you hear that evokes that call to action and feeling of globe trotting mystery and adventure, it is Indiana Jones. When you see that silhouette complete with the famous fedora, hear the crack of the whip, or hear the iconic theme, you know its about to be an exciting and surprisingly educational expedition. There really hasn't been any film franchise that has captured that magic in decades. The fourth film in the Indy franchise was a divisive and yet was the last shred of that magic. Now comes a sequel that continues the story of our favorite archeologist, but fails to really capture what made Indiana Jones so special. Yes, you get him going after an historical relic while racing against the Nazis. Yes, you get the adventure and action that we love, but the story that surrounds all of it sucks away the magic and joy. This time around it is more of a bleak and sad story that really is overly crowded with too many characters and so many good ideas that were unexplored. There were so many mistakes that were made from the recent Star Wars sequel trilogy that were copied and pasted here and that was so disheartening. I won't spoil all of it, but I will say that the joke / theory of Han Solo being a dream of Indy's life or vice versa, is pretty much true here. The since of practicality is all but lost in this film and I really didn't feel the sense of excitement or danger this time around. What I found hilarious and sad, is that the first 20 minutes of this film and Kingdom of the Crystal were the most Indiana Jones feeling moments of the franchise since the original trilogy.

Harrison Ford returns for his final outing as the titular hero and he was great once again. We get to see an even more grumpier and sad progression of the character. He hasn't skipped a beat in the action and I did love his snarky and comedic remarks toward the many villains of the film. I did like the theme of him becoming a relic of an age where people actually had the same passion about history. The rebuilding of the character was a fun exercise of mortality and exploration of the one last ride story arc. John Rhys-Davies returns as the jovial friend as Sallah and he filled my heart with joy. Their friendship hasn't skipped a beat, but I do wish that we went back to or met up with him in Cairo. Toby Jones is always great to see on screen and he was fun and interesting as his World War 2 ally Basil Shaw. His life's work was in line with Indiana's and I liked that it sort of drove him mad. Phoebe Waller-Bridge was good as the daughter of Basil and God-daughter of Indy, Helena Shaw. The character itself has a charm to her in the beginning, but quickly becomes one of the worst characters of the franchise. Not because of Phoebe's fantastic performance, but because she was truly a horrible human being. She claims to care about the Dial, but only for profit and she lacks a sense of remorse for the majority of the film. Even her sidekick Teddy Kumar played by Ethann Isidore, felt like an accessory than a companion. It's not until the last quarter of the film, you start see that shred of humanity left in her, but by then its too late. Shaunette Renée Wilson was awesome as US Agent Mason. I loved that she wasn't blind to the real conspiracy going on behind the search for the Dial. If she was Indy's companion and it became a joint effort to stop the villain of the film from obtaining the Dial, it would've been a perfect tie to Raiders of the Lost Ark. Alas, she was wasted. Speaking of wasted talent, Boyd Holbrook was good as the violent henchman Klaber. He is a fantastic actor, but here he is just relegated to shooting whatever moves and grunting his lines. Mads Mikkelsen was fantastic as the main antagonist Jürgen Voller and I loved his dedication to his cause. He was cold, calculating, smart and relentless. There was a great moment between him and Indiana Jones where they both come to grips with their age old fight and how it pertains to society in 1969. It's a wonderful line that was written that I won't spoil here.

It wouldn't be an Indiana Jones film without the man that musically brought the icon to life. John Williams returns as the maestro of the franchise and he delivers yet again another fun and engaging score. The use of the Indy theme is sprinkled wonderfully throughout the film. The opening action sequence was the best of the score and I loved the return of a number of notes from previous Indiana Jones films. The problems with this film come from the over crowded nature of the cast and over use of CGI. The Indy films have always used CGI in ways to enhance or assist the story and not envelope it completely. Everything felt tangible and like a place I could visit. This time around, the over abundance made for some of the sequences to be ridiculous and sometimes comical with some shots being cartoonish. Its a dying art that most don't appreciate anymore, which is coincidental with the theme of the film. There is a theme that begs the question of "What if you could change the past?" that's introduced, but goes no where and would've been a more powerful ending than the one we got. So was this a good adventure film? It was entertaining sure. Was this a good Indiana Jones film to end the franchise? No. I thought it was a decent return that had more flaws and better ideas that were introduced that would've made for a great finale. What we got was an entertaining mess. Honestly, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was a better Indiana Jones film. Let me know what you thought of the film or my review in the comments below. Thanks for reading.

𝒞𝒽𝒶𝓅𝓉𝑒𝓇 𝟦 ~ 𝒫𝓊𝒷𝓁𝒾𝒸 𝒜𝒻𝒻𝒶𝒾𝓇𝓈

𝒮𝓊𝓂𝓂𝒶𝓇𝓎: Clearing her head from the day’s events, Aveline recounts and journals her conversation behind closed doors with her Commander, Dot Pyxis. Options are laid out, and internal stresses arise, clouding her mind well into the following day’s mentally grueling task; traveling from Trost District to the towns of Wall Rose, and finally to the District of Shiganshina within Wall Maria.

More Chapters

Stars twinkled overhead, their silvery glow illuminating the vast expanse of sky that could be seen over the lip of Wall Ross. Behind the cover of clouds the moon chose to hide away, it left the usually outshone stars unobstructed in their shine.

Aveline drew in a deep breath around the ever thinning smoke stick perched between her lips, exhaling only a minuet later to let the tendrils of smoke curl out into the air from her lungs in thin wisps.

The courtyard was silent, save for the chirping of lone crickets and the occasional flicker of green light popping in and out of focus among the blades of grass in the median.

Glancing back up towards the dotted sky, Aveline traced the patterns of invisible pictures hidden amongst the stars with her eyes, mulling over the conversation she had just left with Commander Pyxis.

Along the trek back to her own dorm for the night, she grumbled under her breath and removed the now spent smoke from between her lips and snuffed out the stub into a trash bin nearby.

The journey should have taken much longer than it had, Aveline thought, as she soon found herself stationed within the barracks hall facing the worn wood of her private chambers door.

Unlocking the door, she removed her boots with trembling fingers and set them near the door. Locking it behind her, she glanced about the empty room.

Not a single thing to preoccupy myself with...

After a quick wash and change, she laid back onto her cot and re-wrapped her scathed arm with a deep sigh. She'd have been able to sleep by now, despite her nap earlier in the day, had it not been for Pyxis's words bouncing around in her skull on monotonous repeat.

Knowing sleep would continue to evade her the longer she laid there listlessly, she reluctantly pulled herself off the bed with a groan, and plopped down at the seat of her desk across the room. Pulling open a drawer, she removed a thin leather bound book and splayed it open on the desk's surface.

Reading through her last entry, she sighed.

So much to update...Fuck it, cant sleep either way...

"The very same..." Pyxis drawled out, eyes lost on the horizon outside his office window.

Pinching at the bridge of her nose, Aveline affirmed his statement with a stiff nod.

"Aye, the same. Baxten took one of them out, but the other titan remains."

Pyxis grunted in reply, understanding the implications. He then reached into his coat pocket for his flask and hurriedly undid the top for a deep gulp. With a furrowed brow, he extended his arm to Aveline, who needed no convincing in accepting the offering. As she greedily downed several sips, Pyxis groaned and took a seat in his chair.

"This is becoming more than what your squad is acclimated to. The job is becoming more than you can handle...I fear what this means for our operations."

Shaking away the burn of the liquor, Aveline leaned against his desk and returned the silver flask to her Commander's greedily outstretched hand.

"My thoughts exactly...I could have lost them last night, Pyxis. We came so close...so close to losing them like I lost Nadia and Nasir...To the same damned titans, even."

She spoke in earnest, eyes wide as they peered up through her tangled auburn hair to meet Pyxis's stern gaze. 

"Erwin confirmed no further expeditions are to be run in the near future; this gives us time to find an understanding through this mess..."

The older man grumbled out around the neck of his flask, glaring down at his aging hand resting on the desk top.

Silence enveloped them for a moment, and the very air seemed to stale as it entered their lungs. Aveline finally took a seat and reached into her own coat pocket to remove a tin of smokes and a small lighter.

"You once aspired to become a Scout."

The sudden comment drew Aveline's attention away from the lighter, her brow becoming less furrowed as she pondered.

"I did," She whispered, finally meeting the Commander's gaze.

"Then why did you choose the Garrison all those years ago?" Pyxis asked, a curious glint in his tired eyes.

"You know why, baldy." She scoffed back, a small smile tugging at the corner of her mouth.

"I have responsibility in Rose; I couldn't leave them behind on my pursuit towards earning the Wings of Freedom."

"Responsibility...such a nasty word." Pyxis chuckled as he reclined back into his seat for a more comfortable position.

"I'm not sure there's much choice now. With our operations on hold, your duties will souly lie in aiding the public in more political affairs. I don't have much choice between disbanding the R.O.S. Experiment, or simply just transferring you over to the Scouts for proper training; should you wish to continue riding out behind our walls. For you, I would offer this trade."  

Sucking in a breath, Aveline bit at her lip anxiously. To stay a Garrison soldier and give up on her ambitions, or abandon it all and chase after a fleeting dream...

"There has to be a way...A way to figure this out. I can't leave the Garrison; it's all I know, Pyxis. But...I cant give up on hope for the land beyond our walls."

"That remains to be seen. Think no further on this for now, Captain. Nothing is certain yet, so return to your duties for now. When the time comes, and we have the information we need, we'll find a way."

Pyxis stood from his desk, glancing the Captain over with a regretful gaze.

"Go; rest. Tomorrow you'll continue on as usual in returning identified corpses to their families, should they wish for their belongings."

With a sigh Aveline stood, pinching an unlit smoke between her lips as she saluted the Commander.

"Yes sir," She whispered, her mind running a mile a minute as she took her leave.

"Damn kid, you get enough on your plate?"

"I am a growing man, sir. Don't hate on me cause you're old."

"Old!? Dione, I'm 22." Norbert's voice carried across the mess hall, startling some of the newer recruits who sat not far away from the squad's table, still attempting to adjust their eyes to the rising sun beyond glistening windows.

Unlike the seasoned soldiers in the Garrison, they weren't yet acclimated to the pair's routine morning banter.

"Yeah; old. It's not my fault they start recruiting at age fourteen," Dione replied, a shit eating grin on his face.

"You should have been the exception for the two year term. Graduating at sixteen doesn't suit you, immature shit." Norbert grumbled back, picking at the food in his plate.

"Didn't they at least teach you to respect your elders?"

"So you admit you're an elder?" Lyra piped up, only half listening to her comrade's bantering as she picked at her breakfast tray.

Before Norbert could start up again, Baxten cleared his throat and nodded his head to a sight just behind them. The boys swiveled in their seats, coming eye to eye with a partially amused Aveline standing at their backs with a tray of breakfast in her hands.

"Captain!" They both exclaimed in sync, brows raised and their food nearly forgotten.

"Bax, I thought I asked you to babysit them while I ran some errands," Aveline mused, taking a seat firmly between the bantering fools, who quickly picked back up their silverware and finished their breakfasts.

"I am. Just didn't feel like interrupting the only thing amusing me. They're like my own personal show to enjoy with my meals." Baxten sighed, picking up a bread roll to bite into.

Amidst Dione and Norbert's grumbles, Aveline cleared her throat, gaining her squad's attention immediately.

"Firstly, I think a year into this squad, Dion and Lyra have matured. Secondly, 22 isn't old; and I dare you to call me as such. Baxten and I are the same age as Norbert, you know. Thirdly, we head out in twenty minutes."

She counted out, meeting the eyes of each member seated around her. Once sure of their acknowledgment and taking note of their eager nods, Aveline continued.

"Just like before, we'll split up and locate the families in Trost who lost their loved ones on the last expedition, and inform them of the retrieval of their fallen's possessions. We'll check off the chart as we go, and meet up in the next area going east and repeat. 'Couple days from now, we'll bring them what we have should they ask for it. Got it?"

"Aye, Captain!"

They responded in affirmation, though Aveline could see the dulling look in their eyes. Sighing, Aveline picked at her food on the plate before her.

"This is the most dreaded part of our job, yes, but it's our job nonetheless. Just a few more days, and we won't have to think about any of it. Commander Erwin of the Survey Corps has called off expeditions for now, until we can get a handle on these reckless titans."

"The Corps are having issues with the titans, too?" Lyra piped up, raising a thin brow her Captain's way.

"From what I heard from Baldy, yeah. More and more...rambunctious, abnormals are being sighted outside the walls, out in the broad of daylight. We aren't the only ones seeing weird shit out there lately,"

Aveline grumbled, scarfing down her food quickly before standing back from the table. A quick, puzzled look from Baxten made her pause in her steps, but with a shake of her head she motioned to the man they would speak later.

After another quick look around the table, Aveline nodded towards her squad and offered a small smile.

"You guys finish up here, I'll meet you in the stables."

Mumbled responses of reassurances follow her out the door of the Garrison mess hall, as well as a steady pace chasing her out across the cobblestone courtyard. Aveline didn't have to turn; she'd recognize the sound of his boots thudding against the ground after her anywhere.

"The hell did Pyxis say back then?" Baxten huffed as he matched his pace to hers.

"After that meeting with the Corps, he mentioned to me how even in daylight, those bastards are acting weird; or as weird as mindless, naked giants can be." Aveline answered cooly, keeping her gaze set ahead.

"You aren't telling me something, Ave,"

Baxten drawled out, and Aveline could damn near see the deadpan expression on his face from slightly behind her as she sped up her walk.

After a moment, Aveline sighed and decided to just come out with it.

"He made me an offer, should this issue not resolve soon. It's either disband the squad and stay in the Garrison for public affair duties, or transfer to the Scouts if we want to continue to ride behind the walls for humanity."

Baxten was silent in thought for some time, even after they reached the stables and entered the tack room for their bridles and saddles.

For a moment, Aveline wondered if he would ever speak as they groomed their mares and adjusted the girth straps for their saddles. But just as he was about to slip on his mare's bridle, he cursed under his breath.

"Damn, Ave...Disband or transfer, huh?"

Aveline merely hummed in acknowledgement, keeping her gaze set on her mare.

"Can you give that up; escaping these damn walls for a slow life in the interior?"

"I can't abandon my family, Bax."

Aveline responded softly, finally peaking past her horse to see him.

"They're all I have left, and they're counting on me to earn our keep."

"Yeah..." Baxten sighed, glaring down at the ground.

"Then again, they never wanted you to join the military to begin with. But here you are anyways."

"But I chose the Garrison, so that I'd be close to them,"

Aveline countered, frowning Baxten's way. He only scoffed at this, lifting his head to meet her look with a grin.

"And you still ride out past the walls risking your life in the dead of night. I bet they're a bit pissed over that."

He chuckled, but soon dropped the humor when he saw her look off to the side with a grimace. With eyes slowly widening in sudden suspicion, he continued on in a low tone;

"They know, don't they? About your squad? About the retrievals?"

Aveline remained silent, letting the still air between them be her answer.

At this, Baxten laughed, purely out of disbelief.

"Holy hell Aveline...You do all this for them, but you won't tell them what it is you're doing?"

"They know I'm in the Garrison, and of my rank as a Captain. But I can't burden them with the finer details."

She mumbled, moving to adjust her stirrups in order to duck out of the weight of Baxten's stare.

"I suppose that's fair," Baxten mused, a hand perched on his chin.

"But if you decide to transfer, they'll worry more for your 'lack of experience', as they see it. I mean, despite us all knowing how much you wanted the Wings of Freedom originally."

Aveline pondered over this for a moment, accepting the truth he spoke. But before she could form a response, and slightly muffled sound of Dione once again razzing Norbert filled the air outside the stables.

The rest of her squad had arrived.

"We can discuss this more later, Bax."

Aveline mumbled, slipping up into her saddle just as Lyra rounded the corner and peered in. From the look in her eye, Aveline knew Lyra had heard her last comment, but as always the younger girl opted to respect their privacy and turn a blind eye as she entered the tack room.

It took Dione, Norbert, and Lyra only a moment to groom their steeds and equip them properly, before they were off in a light trot down the streets.

"We'll start in Trost, of course; and after that the towns' lining border of Rose to the south, then we're off to Shiganshina District. Again, we'll be splitting up into two groups; Baxten, Lyra, and Norbert as one unit. And Dione, you're with me."

Aveline paused for a moment, then looked over her shoulder towards the younger man.

"So that I can keep an eye on you." She added, choosing to ignore his whines of protest.

"Bax, lead out west and north in Trost's District, me and Dione will take the east and south. We'll meet up in the first town south-west of Trost's wall."

"Yes ma'am,"

Baxten grinned, throwing her a sloppy salute as he turned down an adjacent road with Lyra and Norbert railing close behind him, clutching a small chart book tightly in his jacket. Subconsciously, Aveline did the same to a similar notebook she held as she watched them leave, then turned to Dione.

"You're staying close to me this time; I don't want to chase you through the western section of Trost again."

Aveline chuckled over her shoulder to Dione, as he quickly rode up beside her horse.

"Awe c'mon, you act like I'm five,"

He pouted, but Aveline could detect the mischief already stirring in his amber eyes.

"You've matured a lot since turning seventeen, I'll give you that. But that doesn't mean I trust you around a tavern yet."

Aveline smirked back, reaching out to ruffle his hair after a playful shove to his shoulder.

"When you're twenty one, I'll take you with us to the bar outside HQ; so long as you behave when we have to deliver the news to these poor civilians."

At this proposal, Dione grinned and gripped tighter at his reins.

"Yes ma'am!"

What had first started out as a near relaxing ride downtown, soon returned to one of grave responsibility as anguish filled the air the moment their feet slipped out of their stirrups and hit the ground.

Many civilians had paused in their hurry to complete errands for the morning, and some poked their heads out past their doorways or out of window sills as Aveline led forward her horse by the reins, followed closely by Dione down the street.

All feared at whose house they would come to a stop at, as the squad's reputation had certainly perceived them. But the moment Aveline locked her gaze onto an elderly woman's nervous face just outside of her own home, those frozen in silent curiosity bowed their heads with a deep sigh of understanding and went on their way.

But the elderly woman remained where she stood just outside her door; clutching tightly at the seams of her dress in worry, maintaining eye contact with the Captain.

"Captain Aveline," The woman rasped, now glancing between her and her Cadet.

"Please, no...."

"You're Mrs. Connoll, right?" Aveline asked, keeping her tone even and soft as she stared at the woman with regret swimming in her eyes.

Mrs. Connoll remained silent as tears brimmed her eyes, keeping her gaze locked on Aveline's. The shaking of her hands creating wrinkles in the fabric she wore was answer enough for the Captain.

"Mrs. Connoll...I'm very sorry to inform you; we found your son-"

Aveline didn't even try to continue herself as Mrs. Connoll's composure broke. Muffled gasps shook her shoulders, tears slipped past the gaps in her fingers held shakily to her face, mumbled words barely escaping her slowly closing throat.

"T-they returned with-without him....only his horse....did he-was it?....oh my go-god."

Though her words were frequently interrupted with sharp intakes of breath, Aveline nevertheless understood. With a quick glance over her shoulder to check on Dione and hand him her reins, Aveline took a hesitant step forward and placed a firm hand onto the woman's shoulder.

"From what we could tell, it was fast. I know this is excruciating ma'am, but we came to ask if you'd like to bury him yourself, or if you would rather we bury him in the old courtyard for the fallen." Aveline spoke gently, doing her best to soothe Mrs. Connoll as best she could.

Through sniffles and teary eyes, the older woman nodded, as though deciding with herself first before speaking.

"I would like to-to bury him myself; what remains...Wanna see him, o-one last time," She whispered, barely managing the words.

With a grave nod Aveline remover her hand, taking a respectful step back and gesturing for Dione to hand her the reins of her horse.

With trembling hands he did as silently asked, and Aveline quickly mounted her mare once more.

"We'll come by again some time in the week with a covered wagon. I'm very sorry for your loss, ma'am." She murmured, quickly opening her chart book and writing down Mrs. Donnell's name and address.

A solemn nod was all she got in returned, as the woman turned to stagger her way back into her home with the slam of a door.

Sighing to herself, Aveline tugged back the reins and pressed down her heels, leading her and Dione both away from the home and on towards the next.

After several beats of silence, Aveline turned back to assess Dione's state.

The boy was obviously shaken, keeping his eyes trained down at his hands and chin tucked close to his chest.

A sad half smile crept onto Aveline's face at the sight.

"Chin up, Richthofen. I'll do all the talking...Just stay near. I know it's rough-"

"Is any of this even worth it?"

His sudden scoff caught Aveline off guard, making her twist in her saddle to see him more clearly.

"We can't stop these deaths, so instead we bring it back into these cities like a cat with a dead bird to its owners. It just grieves them further,"

Dione continued to curse, finally looking up at her with a faint line of tears lining his eyes.

His words hit home with Aveline.

Many a time she'd felt the same way, but only one factor kept her pushing forward in their line of work. And now, hearing her past thoughts projected back into her own ears, she decided to speak her thought back.

"To those who wish not to be reminded of their pain, yes. But to those who wish to be reminded of the joys of life before the pain set in, this is a blessing. A bloody, disturbing, painful blessing. Some wish to forget, others wish to remember. That's why we do what we do."

Dione was silent awhile, loosening his grip on the leather reins all the while. Aveline had since returned her focus to the front, trying her best to convince herself of her own words as she watched the world go on around her.

Finally, she heard her companion scoff, though this time he didn't sound so angry. Just tired, as though drained of the energy he earlier had possessed.

"I suppose you're right....I've been at it for a year less than you and Baxten, maybe I just needed to hear it to see the truth," He mused, watching the back of his Captain's head as they walked.

"Who's to say what the right truth is? We're just doing our job in aiding these hurt souls." Aveline sighed, slowing her horse's trot as they neared yet another home on their list.

"Come on, we have several hours left ahead of us..."

In the shadow-drenched alleys of the ancient city of Galdara, a figure cloaked in mystery and darkness roamed. Known only as The Wanderer, his true face hidden behind a bird-like plague mask, he moved silently, an enigmatic sentinel in the perpetual twilight of the city’s forgotten quarters.

One fateful night, as the twin moons cast a ghostly light upon the cobblestones, The Wanderer came upon a scene most curious—a portal shimmering in the air, like the surface of a disturbed pond, yet filled with the stars of another universe. As he approached, a voice called out from the luminous void, speaking the name "Hans Baron."

Hans Baron, a scholar of the arcane and technological from another dimension, had been working on an experimental device to bridge the worlds, a creation mingling the mystic and the scientific in ways previously unimagined. His experiment had succeeded, but not entirely as planned. Instead of simply observing other dimensions, he had opened a pathway to Galdara.

Realizing the potential dangers and opportunities such an encounter presented, The Wanderer stepped through the portal, finding himself in Hans Baron’s laboratory—a stark contrast to the medieval ambiance of Galdara, filled with blinking consoles and humming machinery.

"Hans Baron, I presume?" The Wanderer’s voice was muffled by his mask, yet carried an unmistakable tone of authority.

Taken aback, Hans nodded, his eyes wide behind his spectacles. "Yes, and you are?"

"I am known as The Wanderer in the world from which I came. You have opened a door that was meant to remain closed. But perhaps, together, we can explore the possibilities rather than fear them."

Fascinated by the blend of magic and technology he observed in Hans’ equipment, The Wanderer proposed an alliance. Together, they could explore not only the physical realms but also the mystical dimensions, blending their knowledge to navigate the perils and wonders of the multiverse.

Reluctantly, Hans agreed. The potential was too great to ignore. Together, they crafted a plan to stabilize the portal, ensuring a controlled exchange of knowledge and resources between their worlds.

As they delved deeper into their experiments, the duo discovered a network of portals, connecting various dimensions in a complex web of time and space, governed by an ancient council known as The Keepers. These guardians of reality, concerned with maintaining balance, soon became aware of Hans and The Wanderer’s exploits.

Summoned before The Keepers, Hans and The Wanderer were tasked with a quest—to retrieve an artifact lost in the labyrinth of interdimensional threads that could either stabilize the multiverse or unleash chaos untold.

With The Wanderer’s guidance through mystical realms and Hans’ technological prowess, they ventured beyond the known, confronting creatures of ether and shadow, deciphering riddles of cosmic significance, and forging alliances with beings beyond human comprehension.

Their journey tested not only their intellect and courage but also their views on reality and morality. Each challenge brought them closer not only to the artifact but also to understanding the true nature of their own worlds and the threads that wove them together.

In the end, whether they would save the multiverse or irrevocably change it, depended on the choices they made, driven by a partnership that blurred the lines between science and sorcery, reality and myth, in their unrelenting quest for knowledge and power.

THE SECOND GALACTIC CIVIL WAR!

"Battle of the Mid-Rim". The New Republic faces the 7th fleet within the Mid-Rim. The full might of the New Republic and Imperial Remnant forces facing off in a series of titanic, fast paced battles. Despite pleas to both Luke Skywalker and the Coalition of Free Worlds to reinforce them, neither can arrived. Supported by an unknown force, the 7th Fleet is able to prevail against the New Republic, forcing the New Republic into a retreat. While the New Republic fights for it's life, decisions that may change the course of the galaxy occur. Separatist Betrayal!

Following the resumption of active civil war, the Coalition of Free Worlds does not support the New Republic in the Mid-Rim, instead pushing directly towards Coruscant to deliver a knockout blow against their rivals. The newly formed "Galacitc Liberation Army and Navy" arrives over Coruscant, placing themselves in orbit. In a dark and striking move, the commanders, Ryder Azadi and Admiral Ackbar, give the order for GLN ships to bombard the capitol world of Coruscant, to destroy the Core once and for all. However this action does not go as planned. The forces of the GLN, while detesting the New Republic government, still considered the New Republic as friends against the Empire and brothers in arms. Refusing the order, fights break out in the GLN fleet as Calrissian's battle droids attempt to carry out the order, while the organic forces against all odds fight to prevent the deaths of billions. The soldiers of the GLN are successful in capturing Calrissian and forcing him to disarm the battle droids, taking control of the GLN fleet and arresting their nominal leadership. Just as this happens however, the 7th Fleet drops out of hyperspace. The recovering GLN and the broken New Republic fleet rally for a desperate defense of Coruscant.

The Galactic Liberation fleet and the New Republic fleets set aside their differences to fight the Empire one last time. The battle is fierce, but the 7th Fleet begins to prevail. All hope seems lost, however at the last minute Wedge Antilles arrives with Luke Skywalker and the "Outbound Flight" star squadrons. Luke breaks through the 7th Fleet's screens and boards Pellaeon's flagship. There, Luke offers Pellaeon mercy, however Pellaeon is killed by none other than his sister, Leia Organa, a new Sith Lord.

Luke refuses to join the Dark Side, and the two duel on the bridge of Pellaeon's flagship. Luke wins, however Leia escapes with the help of the true leader of the 7th Fleet, Grand Admiral Thrawn.

Thrawn leads the 7th Fleet back into retreat, where a new Imperial Remnant government is born from the Unknown Regions, birthing a new Sith Empire under a council led by Thrawn and Leia Organa. All the while, chaos unfolds in Coruscant, with Hera Syndulla seizing power. This plan is foiled by none other than Mas Amedda, who leads a popular revolt to take back control of the Senate. Mas Amedda is killed in this battle, however Coruscant is saved from military dictatorship. Mon Mothma becomes effective leader of the Republic in the wake of these events, given emergency powers by the Senate. This emergency power allows the new Universal Species Rights to be passed. However with a failure to reform the Senate representation, it becomes visible that the New Republic may be doomed to oligarchy and power struggles for the forseeable future. Lando, Azadi and Ackbar are all placed under arrest by the Coalition of Free Worlds for treason. Han Solo, a leader of the GLN mutiny, becomes leader of the CFW while the government restructures.

"You look so much like your Mother."

her back stiffens. she knows that voice. a kick that hard ? definitely a girl ! hands at either side of her give the slightest of twitches, every muscle in her body tenses, and as her boot clad feet were once tredding marbled tile in her chandrilla home now stand on what can be described as a transluscent bridge amid dancing stars.

she takes in the scenery before she considers giving him a response. to her left she sees a constelattion of two dogs, in a circle, chasing each other's tail; the other she a cluster of stars mimicking a comet and flies towards nothingness. in front of her, although some odd paces from her, lies a mirror, and when she turns around she sees the ethereal bridge spiral into eternity, connecting each mirror possibly a doorway ?

she considers running towards the mirrors: she also considers to take her chances and jump off the bridge into the abyss with the hopes it'll jolt her awake. she has children who need her. this man and when she takes the briefest of glances she realizes he looks far younger than her thirty years, and what is even more damning is that she sees her face on his more than any holo of padme amidala needs nothing from her. she owes him nothing. she needs nothing from him.

liar, the force chides.

“ did you think that when you put the IT-0 droid in my arm ? when you bullied your way into my head ? ” she doesn't mince words on principle. “ or how about when you held me back while my home, my family, my culture was obliterated because your empire wanted to compensate for what they lacked ? ” she stares at him now, advancing on him like she's seen wolf-cats do to their prey in the woods as a girl. she doesn't know if she could hurt a force ghost, or whatever the karking hell is, but she's thrilled to try ! “ or was it when you tortured han, chewie, and i to catch luke ? ”

she is standing in front of him, looking up into those eyes that both make her want to flinch away in fear as well clench her fists in anger, with the same gall she had during that first interrogation. she is a krayt dragon ready to snap her jaws and consume.

“ or was it when you had your inquisitors kidnap me when i was ten years old ? ” she doesn't let him respond. she doesn't want to hear it. he says she looks like a woman who made the mistake of loving the man in front of her and lost her life for it, but he sure as hell never saw her. ben or luke never her. “ do me a favor: go back to whatever hells you've come from so i can find a way back to my children, who i would never harm the way you harmed luke and i. ”
