Across the stars [REYLO]

pairing : rey x ben solo plot : AU where Rey is a NASA astrophysician that manages their social media and Ben is a physicist who sends her the photos to post and whose lengthy scientific captions she ignores in favour of writing her own. It drives him crazy. warning : none (except my poor english) words count : 1159 words

Summary : After completing her master's degree in astrophysics and space engineering, Rey is denied a top job at NASA because she is one of the only women to apply. Considered too "incompetent", she is then relegated to an uninteresting position. Ben, meanwhile, has been working as a physicist for a few years. He follows in the footsteps of his uncle, Luke Skywalker, for whom he has great respect. They don't know each other yet, but a shocking element could bring them closer... or push them even further apart.

Rey had the habit of arriving right on time for work, but that morning things didn't go as planned. Her car, which was more of a wreck, broke down before reaching Pasadena, and she had to wait for hours for the tow truck. Already running late, her friend Rose had asked two of her coworkers to pick her up along the way.

The first four notes of "Come As You Are" echoed in the car. Rey couldn't resist mimicking the guitar, but she stopped immediately when she noticed Hux giving her a strange look. She pretended to look away, taking the opportunity to admire the landscape.

"The valley is very dry these days," she said, feeling awkward in the heavy silence.

"I hadn't noticed until you mentioned it," replied Hux, glancing briefly at the landscape before focusing on his computer again.

"If you paid more attention to your surroundings, you would have noticed."

Hux sighed and closed his laptop abruptly. He removed his glasses and delicately cleaned them.

"I'm an astrophysicist. My head is in the stars. I certainly don't have time to worry about what's happening down here."

At the wheel, Ben cleared his throat, somewhat uncomfortable with the direction the conversation was taking. Rey, however, was not ready to let it go so easily. Hux had been condescending, and she intended to put him in his place.

"You must first understand the world we live in before understanding the world we seek to explore."

"If it's so easy for you to say, why don't you do it?"

"I..." Rey was about to say.

Ben slammed the brakes, stopping in the middle of the road. The 4x4 behind him, almost colliding, started honking persistently.

"She's right, Hux. Now can we get to work without further interruptions?"

The two young people remained silent, pretending they hadn't done anything. The thirty minutes that followed this discussion were again very quiet, with only the sound of Hux's keyboard.

Once they finally arrived at their workplace, Rey thanked Ben politely and gave a polite look to Hux before walking away. In the distance, she saw her friend Rose waving her arms in all directions, waiting for her for a good quarter of an hour.

"So, they didn't mistreat you too much ?" Rose asked as they headed to their offices.

Rey sighed.

"Ben was somehow very polite and decent with me, but I can't say the same for Hux..."

"Armitage is always a bit peculiar with people when he meets them for the first time... He may seem condescending, but he has a good heart."

"He hides it very well, then!"

Rose burst into laughter and shook her head. She settled into her seat, organising the papers on her desk. Rey put her things aside and tossed all the papers on her desk. She saw various photos and documents that other NASA colleagues had given her.

There was a picture of a galaxy that Ben had placed on her desk the day before, two long texts to send to journals written by Hux, and a welcome note from someone named Finn.

"Who's Finn?" Rey asked curiously.

A door opened, and Rose nodded toward someone.

"What timing! I'm Finn. Rose has talked a lot about you! You've been transferred here recently, correct ?"

Rose rolled her eyes.

"Calm down, Finn. She just arrived, and you're already harassing her."

"It's my welcome committee. To make her feel at ease, it's not with your mood swings that she's going to feel o-..."

Someone else knocked on the door. All heads turned, and they were stunned to see Ben Solo in their office.

"I'm here to drop off a new file. You should get ahead with your work, miss Rey."

He looked at her for a moment and then left without saying anything. Finn and Rose exchanged shocked looks.

"He had never been here before, am I right ? He used to look down on us and ask his assistants to drop off the documents!" Rose reminded Finn.

"I remember very well, and it's the same guy who showed up in our office today, but what has changed?..."

They both turned to Rey, who was reading the documents. She furrowed her brow and sighed.

"Don't even think about it. I find him just as unpleasant as Hux, in the end," she said, reading the end of the note he had written.

Rose took the paper from her hands, with Finn peering over her shoulder.

"Taken from the Hubble Space Telescope by NASA/ESA, this galaxy is called NGC 4535," there's nothing alarming in this note, what bothers you about it, Rey?" Finn asked.

"Read the last sentence," she replied.

Rose continued and stopped before reading the last words out loud.

"Don't you dare change the words of the description of galaxy NGC 4535 that I just gave you. I've heard that you're frivolous, so you should take your job seriously if you don't want to lose it on your first day."

Rey snatched the paper from her hands, crumpled it, and threw it in the trash.

"He wants the job done ? No problem! It'll be done, but in my way."

She sat down forcefully in her chair and took out her laptop.

Rose and Finn exchanged a worried look.

"Rey, are you sure that it's a good idea-..."

"Best idea I've ever had !"

She typed a few words on her keyboard at a frantic pace, and at that moment, they understood that it was better not to piss her off.

"We need to make people want to read our article. Does he really think that if I write NGC 4535, people will flock to buy that damn newspaper? Of course not. We need to make them want to read, a catchy title... hm, for example..."

Rey thought for a moment. Rose watched her in amazement, and Finn moved away slowly.

"EUREKA !"

The young woman continued to type on her keyboard and showed them the final result. Rose's stunned expression had turned into pride, and Finn's apprehension turned into confidence in his new colleague's work. They admired the poster that Rey had just created for a moment before finally deciding to print it and eventually feature it in scientific articles and magazines.

"Ben will surely be furious."

"I'm actually waiting for him. I wrote what he wanted me to write, and I added a bit of my 'frivolity,' that's all."

She sent an e-mail to her publishers, attaching her freshly new article and turned back to face her coworkers.

Her friends glanced at her and smiled.

The next morning, on his way to work, Ben received a message from his friend and colleague Armitage. He was surprised since he only received texts during his working hours.

He sighed and pulled his phone reluctantly from his pocket, slowly reading the text he had sent him.

This new girl completely messed up the article, OUR WORK ! he wrote.

Ben frowned and immediately went to the nearest paper shop. He rushed to the space section and immediately grabbed the brand new edition of the Cosmic Chronicles. Hux was right : It was his research with her words. He skimmed the whole article and shifted his attention to its title :

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

Dorm Life {Rose Rico}

CW: mention of fictional underage drug and alcohol use, mention of fictional drug dealing, fictional depictions of drug use

Having graduated High School early, Rose decided to get a headstart on University. She made some friends, worked hard on her classes, and made it through her first term with a B- GPA. Bess visited often.

One particular friend, Goose Wheeler, opened Rose's eyes to a world she had not experienced before. She partied with Goose and some of her other roommates, earning her what would be her very first hangover. Tight on cash for food and knowing Goose dealt, she asked for some advice.

Overall, Rose left teenagehood behind with some new skills, goals, a new appreciation for her space. Is she ready to take on the challenge ahead?

"Jaune Gets a Gun AU" Starship Troopers : MI Power Armour

Inspired by @howlingday's weapon posts.

Jaune chuckled as Ruby pouted about having been caught having impure thoughts about her first friend at Beacon. They pair started to pass past a fairly large booth when...

????: Hey! You two! I noticed you looking about, check out what the Mobile Infantry has to offer!

Jaune and Ruby turned a little shocked to be called out. What greeted them was a well weathered, and scared man... oozing authority.

Ruby: Can we help you?

Rico: No, the question is... Can I help you?

Jaune: (Confusion obvious on his face) I don't follow.

Rico: It's a couple questions, I have for you.

Ruby: Question? I don't think...

Jaune: It would be impolite not to at least listen to the questions.

Rico: Good man. First, take a look and tell me what you think of MI Power Armour?

Jaune: That looks pretty cool, actually? How much?

Ruby: Jaune? You already have armour! We're only here to find you a ranged option.

Jaune: But look at it! I mean it covers even more of my body, it has a rocket launcher, and a mini-gun on shoulder mounts!

Rico: (Chuckling) That's not all.

Jaune: It has a JET PACK!

Ruby: Jaune... that is NOT grimm in that picture.

Jaune: Ruby... rocket launcher... mini-gun... jetpack... this is so cool.

Ruby: (Sighing) You said you had two questions for us. What's the second one?

Jaune: Who cares! Where can I purchase this armour?

Rico: We can provide it to you FREE of charge... just sign this.

Rico hands Jaune and Ruby tablets, featuring minuscule text and fingerprint scanners.

Jaune: What's all this?

Rico: Just a simple service contract.

Ruby looks at Rico suspiciously, but before she can act, Jaune presses his thumb against the scanner. The beep that sounds, causes Ruby's mind to fill with dread.

Jaune: So?

Rico: Welcome to the Mobile Infantry, citizen.

Jaune: Huh? Citizen? I'm already a citizen of Va...

Rico: There are NO VALEANS in my Army! Just Troopers! Camacho! Trig! We have a new recruit... get him geared up!

Ruby makes a grab for Jaune as two armoured woman step out of the back area and hook their arms under Jaune's arms, lifting his feet from the floor.

Ruby: Jaune! You can't do this! This is not right... it's... it's... a Vacuoing!

Jaune: Um, where are we going?

Rico: Training, and then we take the fight to the Bugs!

Jaune: Bugs? You mean Grimm, right?

Rico: No Trooper... Bugs. It's a Good Day to Die.

Jaune starts to futilely struggle as Ruby watches in horror as Jaune is carried towards the curtained off area of what she now could see was a recruiting booth.

????: General.

Rico: Yes? Headmaster?

Ozpin: Please let my student go.

Rico: He signed...

Jaune/Ruby: Thank the brothers!

Ozpin: I know he did, yet he still has three years of training at my school to complete. Which means you can't as Ms Rose so eloquently put it... Vacuo him.

Jaune/Ruby: Yes!

Rico: I see, he's a student. Trig. Comacho put him down. My apologies Headmaster... I'll get a 12-40-A to release him...

Ozpin: That will not be necessary.

Ruby/Jaune: Huh?

Ozpin: This is a valuable lesson for you, Mr Arc. Always read before signing. So General three years and you can return to pick him up.

Rico: Understood. See you on the bounce, sir.

Rico, Trig and Camacho all salute the headmaster before leaving.

Ruby: You can't!

Jaune: Headmaster?

Ozpin: You signed a contract, Mr Arc... and what are contracts?

Jaune: (Suddenly filled with dread) A legally agreed to promise.

Ozpin: Correct. So for all intents and purposes you gave your word to serve as a member of the United Federation's Mobile Infantry.

Jaune: And an Arc never breaks their word.

Ruby was panicking, thinking about Jaune facing whatever those things were in the second picture... but more importantly... what Pyrrha was going to do to her when she found out. As she was going through her crisis, Ozpin gently patted Jaune on his shoulder.

Ozpin: I'll leave you two to enjoy the rest of your day.

Ozpin walks into the crowd and vanishes.

Jaune: (Notices Ruby's terror filled face) Ruby, are you okay?

Ruby: (Hyperventilating) I'm so dead... no, I'm more than just dead... I'm dead, dead, and dead again!

(I'm trying... again, I think @howlingday has much better posts. But eh, well it's either sit on these and let them drive me insane... or let them out. Hope you enjoyed.)

Hello! I'm Katerina, or Kate, or Bun-Bun; any nickname would suffice, really (as long as it's nice! lol). I've been hanging around, but this is my first post. I'm not one for celebrity obsessions, but I decided to kick things off with a moodboard devoted to someone I'll unfortunately never be able to meet.

Keep reading for some words from Flint, Lark, and Rico ♥

"Another ball full of couples dancing the minuet... Do you not have a partner? I guess I can join you... Is it normal to feel dizzy before you start dancing?"

"What an aft! Care for some swabbing? ...please don't make me literally swab the deck, I'm shirtless for a reason."

"Your name must be 'hardtack', because I'd love to put you in my mouth, break my molars on your biscuit, dunk you in some tea, and suck you dry. Wait, can I try that again—"

(Not So) Teenage Dirtbag 2 {Rose Rico}

part 1

Rose attended career day with high hopes. However, the whole event has left her questioning what she wants to do and who she wants to be. None of these careers sound particularly appealing. Some sound downright awful. Her teacher didn't offer much comfort or guidance.

She developed a crush on her best friend Taylor Bjergsen, just to discover they are aromantic and asexual. She quickly built a relationship with Philip Tinker. She had misgivings in the beginning, but the couple talked through them and quelled Rose's fears. They Promised themselves to each other before attending prom together.

This girl is driven, passionate and ambitious! Rose loves to cook, and frequently cooks dinner for the whole family - sometimes even for Philip's family! She combines her love of cooking with her love of the outdoors by grilling often.

She studied so hard that she graduated high school early and is patiently awaiting her university acceptance letter. Unfortunately, the day she graduated was also the day her lunch lady died during Exam Prep. She has been feeling the loss for many days, and it has darkened her transition out of high school.
