OC Story: Invite

(Get in loser, we’re going to do something fun)

For what feels like the first time in Amos’ life, it feels like the past couple of days have gone on for forever in a positive manner.

They never really felt like part of something for a long time, until re-enrolling into Arcana Academy and joining a group of friendly people

Even if it’s only been a mere three days since that happened, Amos had already learned a lot about what he missed out on, and about his new Postmythic friends.

They’ve all gladly welcomed him into their already established group with open arms, with Ro, Nova, Dylan, & Kai especially taking a liking to him since they were all the same “age”. Amos feels that they could finally be a teenager again whenever they hang around them.

On top of all of that, Amos managed to save up money to buy a new deck of cards from an oracle store, quickly being enamoured by their black, white, and teal appearance, and how their magic easily flowed into each and every card.

Cartomancy was an old passion that he never thought he would end up returning to all those decades ago, but he still remembered his old tricks after all this time.

In fact, they were practicing one of them before their ArcPhone buzzed from a new notification.

———

Nova > Yo guys, u awake?

Amos > Nova, it’s 3 in the morning

Ro > And? U ended up answering lmao

Amos > well, I mean, I cant rlly sleep for some reason

Nova > YOU DRANK HALF A DOZEN CUPS OF FUCKING COFFEE TODAY, OF COURSE YOU DONT WANNA SLEEP. WE WARNED YOU ABOUT THAT

Amos > It tasted good! :v

Dylan > Is there a reason why u wanted to know if we’re awake Nova?

Dylan > Kai’s awake too btw. He doesn’t feel like picking up his phone.

Nova > oh ye, right

Nova > You guys wanna go do smth in the city?

Amos > Like what?

Nova > uh idk, I didn’t rlly think I’d get this far lmao

Ro > u chill with misdemeanour crimes Am?

Amos > yea ig, as long as they don’t entail hate speech, then I’m good

Nova > Alright then! Let’s do some fun teenager shit >:D

Kai > wait, what’ll happen if Parker finds out we did smth behind their back

Dylan > And u said u weren’t gonna get your phonamkxoskajw

Nova > ayo kai, what’s happening in ur room

Kai > it’s easy to shut ur boyfriend up by kissing him a lot <3

Ro > wait that’s cute wtf

Ro > Also, we already told Lilith n Clover that we might get up to some shenanigans a couple of minutes ago, and they agreed to covering for us.

Amos > should we bring anything on us for this thing?

Nova > idk, bring your weapons and some other important stuff. Ro n’ I will teleport the 5 of us to the place we’re heading to once we signal out that we’re ready to go.

———————————————————————————

OTHER NOTABLE REMARKS

—————————————————————

• As stated in the Team Chaosmos log, that team and Team Postmythic are in a alliance, which was confirmed by Kioo, alongside Chaomos’ leaders; Aaron Praan and Lance Psychí

• Kioo originally grew up as close friends with C Lumikha, another member of Team Chaomos. Both originally lived in a village that eventually got destroyed during their childhood, leading to Kioo losing their mom in the aftermath

• Both Cazone & Ippotis have zero knowledge of who their biological parents are, and have spent a majority of their lives traveling the country, and eventually met each other in the process whilst Canzone was performing a song for a crowd of people in a remote village

• In that same village, a horde of entities attacked it. Which lead to Canzone and Ippotis helping to defend the village from destruction, managing to salvage a good amount of the village itself and its denizens. Both of them have also stated that they learned about Arcana Academy through the suggestion of a villager.

• Págoma and Yuhraq were solely taught in a private school for students that descended from mythical creatures and humanoids. Said school has great ties with Arcana Academy

• Krǔv is one of many vampires that attend Arcana Academy. If by any chance a vampire hunter enters academy premises, they will be immediately ushered away and reported to city authorities

• Forêt’s parents do not condone her identity as a transgender female and her enrolment in Arcana Academy. If by chance do they arrive to take her back, Academy faculty will escort them off premises

• Despite Estrella being a classified as a human, she has stated in an interview that her bloodline is known to have a deep connection with the stars, and supposedly drew power from the constellations.

• Torehan has privately stated in an interview that she has an extraordinary ability involving hacking and programming. Luckily she has no interest in tampering with Academy security, so this shouldn’t be considered as an issue.

• Torehan also comes from a bloodline of paranormal experts, and while she does inherit this expertise, hacking seems to be her favourite hobby

• Uisce and Amaré both originate from underwater villages and have little to no knowledge about culture from the surface world. Faculty will take caution with explaining certain topics to the both of them, especially considering how both have exhibited symptoms of homesickness.

• Reanimar has actually attended Arcana Academy in the past before their father took them out of the Academy due to what happened involving the deaths of 2 academy students. He was only in the start of his first year when he was forced to leave, so they’re essentially restarting education here.

• NHP agents that are biologically related to Reanimar are on the look out for them to take them back into their custody. If they do end up entering Academy premises, they will be immediately escorted out and reported to city authorities

——————————————————————————

OTHER NOTABLE REMARKS

—————————————————————

• Praan and Psychí hold a large amount of talent when it comes to forging weapons and other miscellaneous technology. Even collaborating to create prosthetic limbs which both of them use. Psychí’s original left robotic arm was replaced in favour for the one he and Praan collaborated on, and the latter began to use one after an incident led to him losing his right forearm

• Psychí has stated that they were originally human, but was rebuilt as an android with her soul intact after an incident when they were young

• Everyone in the team had shown signs of physical and/or mental trauma, with Shalaal and Wasserfall being the only two exceptions.

• Despite Xiyue’s weapon of choice being a tang Sao, they seem to prefer to fight using martial arts; like Kung Fu, Karate, Wushu, Kickboxing, Capoeira, and Taekwando.

• Ongaku primarily casts Sound magic using a shamisen gifted to them from their late father, and considers it to be a secondary weapon to go along with their dual revolvers

• It’s implied that Odei went through something in their past that lead to them rarely if ever talking to anyone else outside of Chaosmos. When asked about it, they stated that it involved other classmates bullying them for their nationality and elemental heritage

• Odei also has the unhealthy habit of spray painting graffiti around Academy walls and other miscellaneous buildings within Arcana City. Despite this, the art they have created show immense talent and experience, and most of their recent art seem to reference retro technology and Lumikha in a way.

• Lumikha’s biological parents passed away years before he arrived at Arcana Academy, but they have been taken into the care of Xiyue’s family.

• In the same incident that made Praan lose their arm. Lumikha’s skin is now covered in bright cyan patches, alongside his hair now being more cyan. As a Creation Mage, patches of glowing skin implies they’re running out of mana/stamina, but Lumikha stated that their mana supply hasn’t shortened, and that the new patches on their skin don’t glow

• Ailes & Ouranós have stated in a private interview that they died in a past life whilst enrolled in Arcana Academy. For their privacy, the faculty will NOT be mentioning it to authorities or outside business partners. Both of them have stated that they have told the rest of Chaosmos, even if most of them we’re on complete accident

• Stamen and Mortalidad’s families aren’t mostly accepting of them either attending the Academy or their relationship. If by any chance they were to arrive demanding them back to their respective homes, faculty will come to both of their defence. Stamen’s mother & Mortalidad’s father on the other hand has come to terms with their relationship and the fact that they have left home to attend Arcana Academy.

• In comparison to other angels, Stamen’s wings and halo are more darker, implying that they are a fallen angel. She doesn’t seem to care about that, stating that it was worth it to be with Mortalidad.

• Team Chaosmos has recently been interacting more with Team Postmythic. Praan, Psychí and Postmythic’s leader; Parker Kioo have stated that their groups are in an alliance with each other. Fueled more by the fact that Kioo and Lumikha have history as close friends before both arrived at Arcana Academy

OC Story: Bloodstains

(Happy [belated] Birthday Lilith!)

(TW: Mentions of Blood and Death)

Lilith was high on adrenaline over her current predicament.

Vampires like herself wouldn’t dare pick a fight with humans that hunted their kind.

And yet, here she is, standing in front of an unconscious hunter with her twin daggers in each hand.

With a shit eating grin on her face, she gladly slit the hunter’s throat and sucked the remaining blood out of the hunter, leaving behind a corpse.

Normally, murder is frowned upon. Not that Lilith was worried about being discovered. Besides, no officer would dare search within the deep forest for missing hunters.

And as she turned to see her girlfriend Clover, she looked entranced and endeared at the sight of her as half a dozen other hunters lied unconscious

Lilith chuckled, “You’re staring.”

Clover snapped out of her loving trance, “I can’t help myself! You look really pretty when you’re kicking ass.”

“Aw, thanks Clo. Anyways let’s leave these guys here to rot ‘n decompose.”

And with that, the Vampire and the Nature Mage left the bloodied scene, hand in loveable hand with smiles on their face, and blood on their clothes.

———

They found a waterfall connecting to a small lake after an hour of walking, with the both of them immediately jumping into the waters to wash out the blood from beforehand.

The two girls emerged from the water face to face with each other, the smiles on both of their faces grew as they continued to lovingly gaze at each other.

“Today was pretty fun.”

“Well, those guys didn’t stand a chance against us. Those guys weren’t expecting a Nature specialist to make use of being able to grow plants from anywhere!” Clover happily replied.

Lilith sighed, “Y’know killing that guy made me think about my immortality. I’m technically gonna live until the heat death of the universe unless I get killed…”

Before continuing, she placed her right hand onto Clover’s cheek, “But, I don’t want to spend that future eternity alone.”

Clover was flustered, but still managed to respond to Lilith’s confession as she hugged the back of her neck, “Aw, that’s really sweet of you Lil! But ya might wanna save turning me into a vampire for marriage.”

Lilith chuckled, “Yeah, you’re right. But I’ll love you nonetheless Clover.”

Clover smiled, Lilith smiled back,

And the two of them share a long, tender, and loving kiss.

But the kiss only lasted for a few minutes, with the two of them only pulling away at the sound of a clearing throat.

As they turned to the sound, the girls spotted a tiefling and half-elf staring at them in pure confusion.

“Are… we interrupting something?”

Clover immediately tried to diffuse the awkward situation as she and Lilith pulled away from each other whilst still being close to each other, “Uh… not really! We were just havin’ a romantic moment. My name’s Clover, and this is my girlfriend Lilith.”

The tiefling and half-elf looked at each other before the latter sighed and replied to Clover’s greeting, “I’m Orion, and this is my partner Brio. Are you two also travelling to Arcana Academy by foot?”

OC Story: Resolution

(For Amos’ birthday I’m gifting him a new family)

Amos was nervous to meet the new people that would become his teammates after hearing that a good majority of them were from supernatural backgrounds.

Those people and “former” NHP agents don’t mix.

Parker kept reassuring them about that as the elevator they were in slowly but surely arrived to Team Postmythic’s dorm floor, whilst also briefly introducing each and every team member,

“Brio’s a musician that specializes in everything in the classical genre, Orion lives off of history books, so I’d go to them if you’d want to learn about what you’ve missed throughout the world, Edan can be impulsive and hot-headed, Skadi’s pretty chill, but he can get pretty angry for nymph standards, Lilith & Clover are impulsive and basically do whatever they want, Ro & Nova are pretty talented when it comes to their hobbies and their magic, and you probably don’t need a intro for Dylan & Kai.”

“Alright, I feel less nervous for when I finally meet them… but… why’d you use they pronouns for Orion? Aren’t those pronouns used to refer to multiple people. And aren’t nymphs only female? Why did you also refer to Skadi as a male?”

Parker was confused over Amos’ question, but they quickly answered after a small chuckle, “It’s really simple actually. People like Orion, Brio, & myself consider themselves to be Non-Binary, and there’s loads of other gender identities besides female & male out there nowadays. People are free to change their identity whenever they want within Gaia; Clover and Dylan know that pretty well.”

Amos was intrigued over what Parker said, “Oh! Interesting…”

*DING!*

*You have now arrived at Team Postmythic’s dorm floor, please exit the elevator shortly*

As Parker exited the elevator, they were immediately meeted with the sight of Dylan & Kai, instantly bringing the two of them into a long, and tight hug.

As Amos watched Parker hug them, he immediately gets his first sight of the other members of Team Postmythic. They all look confused and intrigued at the sight of him, so Amos introduced himself, albeit quite nervously,

“Um… hi. I-I’m Amos Reanimar. I prefer he/they pronouns, and I was assigned to join your team.”

They smiled nervously as their right hand tightly held their left arm whilst they spoke, but everyone else there looked understanding.

Everyone afterwards took their turns with introducing themselves and their magical abilities and backgrounds to Amos’ joy and curiosity.

He also decided to come clean about his background with the NHP and his connection to necromancy, and to their luck, everyone seemed understanding about it considering he didn’t condone that organization’s ideals and seemed to be pretty chill with his whole “undead” thing.

And as the newly reunited Team huddled together talking about everything that’s happened, Amos could feel the smile on their face grow more and more.

Especially with the new hope to live on to see tomorrow.

[annimator-ocblog]

Everyone in Team Chaosmos regularly says fuck

[annimator-ocblog]

OC Story: Mentor

(Aromantic solidarity, also before you ask, Parker & Amos’ bond is completely platonic)

“So… you’re okay with me joining your team?” Amos fidgeted with his hands as he asked that question to Parker.

They sincerely smiled before answering his question, “Yeah! No worries, I don’t see anything wrong with letting one more person join. The member count will even out with your inclusion anyways.”

Amos smiled as Parker gave their answer, but only for a moment as his smile turned into a frown, “Even… considering-“

Parker put a hand on his shoulder to reassure him, “Look, I’m extremely grateful for your decision to help Dylan and Kai escape, and this is my way of saying thanks. And as for what the Dean told me about your “death”, it honestly un-phases me. You’ve basically spent decades in limbo during your secluded time in the NHP, and from the looks of it, your magical skills are still amateur at best. No offence though.”

“None taken! I’m just really grateful that I got another chance to learn at this Academy. Even despite my short time here all those years ago, I really enjoyed it a lot. And some of the new elements that’ve been introduced into the curriculum look really interesting!”

Parker smiled over Amos’ enthusiasm, “I’m glad to see you happy with this. But, I just have two extra questions for you; what elements are you going to study, and how do you feel about romance?”

Amos was confused over the latter question, but answered nonetheless, “I’m going to study Soul, Dark, Nature, and Creation. It feels like it’ll be difficult, but I could probably handle it. And as for the other question… I don’t really have any interest in romance. I don’t know if people still find that weird nowadays, but I don’t have any interest in getting into a romantic relationship. Not that I get upset over the sight of romance, I remember two old classmates of mine getting into a relationship despite how the time period treated people like themselves, and I was really happy for the both of them.”

“So you’re aromantic too?”

Amos was happily astonished over Parker’s reply, “There’s… a word for it now?”

Parker chuckled, “Yeah, there’s a word. Times’ve also changed a lot when it comes to respect and acceptance. People get to love who they want, and people that aren’t interested in stuff like that are just as respected.“

The smile on their face grew as they continued speaking to Amos, “Besides that, I don’t really have much else to say. Welcome to Team Postmythic, Amos.”

OC Story: Second Chance

(Amos returns to Arcana Academy)

(TW: Mentions of Death)

Amos had to split up from Dylan & Kai once they returned to Arcana City.

As someone that had ties to an organization that was banned from the city, he was expecting to be escorted to the city’s officer station.

But to this surprise, he’s brought somewhere else.

They were brought into the Arcana Academy Dean’s office. Despite all the enhancements and innovation in modern technology, the office still felt familiar to him despite all the decades Amos spent away from the Academy.

As Amos sat in a chair parallel to the Dean’s desk & chair, he was given an electronic tablet that showed an Academy log of himself.

“According to the log archives, it says that someone with your exact name and appearance has attended this Academy before multiple decades ago… well, minus your… skin-tone.”

Amos didn’t know what to say over this, and the Dean immediately noticed and tried to reassure him, “Look, if this is a subject you’re uncomfortable to talk about, I completely understand. But if it makes you feel better, there aren’t any cameras in my office. Whatever you decide to talk about will only be between the two of us.”

With that reassurance, Amos started to speak, “I was an Arcana Academy student back in the 1950s. I only spent a couple of months learning here before my parents took me out because of the Academy started to become a safe-space for non-human and LGBT students after the deaths of two of my classmates.”

The Dean was surprisingly understanding of Amos’ situation, “Yes, the deaths of Marcus Pájaro and Liam Vëtta have certainly changed a lot of things in Arcana City as a whole. But, if you did attend the Academy decades ago, how are you still here? You almost look exactly the same as you did in this photo taken of yourself during orientation.”

Amos still felt nervous to answer the Dean’s question, but they still decided to answer, “After… my parents decided to join the NHP and tried to indoctrinate me into that… organization, I tried to escape. I don’t really remember how I tried to escape, but all I remember was that I died in the process.” He started to curl up in his seat as he continued speaking, “My… Dad brought me back to life using a necromancy spell, but in the process, he essentially made me immortal. I can’t age, my skin colour became… this, and I can’t feel any pain. And, the spell keeping me alive is still active after my dad died. Even after the death of my parents, other family members still decided to try and indoctrinate me into the NHP’s practices for decades. And, after having to deal with all that for what felt like forever. I finally decided to help Dylan & Kai escape, and freeing myself while doing so.”

The Dean sighed, “Helping to free two Academy students from an organization like the NHP is certainly a valiant gesture. But, I have a good feeling that there’s another reason as to why you decided to help those two, isn’t there?”

Amos took another deep breath, “I still want to learn more about magic, and about what I’ve missed about everything in the world. I spent most of my life locked away from it, so why pass up on a chance like this?”

Silence filled the room. But after a few minutes, the Dean chuckled and held out his hand, “Well that, if that’s the case…”

“Welcome back to Arcana Academy, Amos.”

And with that, Amos gladly shook his hand.

———

The Dean then took the time to fill in Amos on the new changes that have happened with Arcana Academy; primarily the new measures and procedures, new magical elements, and the creation of the dorm and team system,

“The dorm & team system has been in effect ever since the start of the new millennium, and it has done wonders for the students with how they’ve been more united and friendlier with one another. Teams are named in two different ways, either by being named by a word that describes the team as a whole, or by the year number of the team’s oldest number combined with a number assigned during team orientation, like for example, 2-4.”

Amos was intrigued by the concept, “Sounds fun! And interesting! Am… I going to be assigned into a team?”

The Dean nodded, “Precisely Amos. And-“

A knocked was heard before the Dean could continue his sentence. Immediately after, the door opened to show someone dressed up in armour that covered a majority of their body, but still noticeably wearing a dress and beret. Their vibrant teal hair was crystal-like, with part of it also covering their face.

The Dean continued to speak with a smile on his face at the sight of the person that entered the room, “Well speak of the devil! You entered just in time Parker Kioo. The gentleman sitting in front of me is Amos Reanimar. I’d like for you to give him a tour of the Academy.”

Parker looked confused, “Oh… okay sir. I was expecting some other news, but I’ll gladly do so.”

The Dean sighed, “If said news you were expecting was about Dylan and Kai, they’ll return to the Academy tomorrow, but they’ve decided to recover undersea since it’s where they feel the most comfortable for now. As for Amos, once you give him a full tour of the Academy, I want you to decide whether you do or don’t want him to join Team Postmythic.”

OC Story: Cause for Concern

(Parker’s doing fine… I’m joking, no they aren’t)

Losing control of your magic would go in tandem with losing your emotions in a world like Gaea.

Parker never really had something like this happen to them until what happened now.

They’ve been impatiently pacing all over the Academy premises ever since they got the news of Dylan & Kai’s disappearance.

Unbeknownst to them, their footsteps left behind crystal shards that slowly but surely grew with the more impatient they became. And two people noticed said footprints and tried to follow them.

None of this was help with all the thoughts encircling Parker’s mind;

Part of what happened to three of her team members feels like their fault even though they had nothing to do with what happened to them. Dylan and Kai were supposed to be safely protected within Arcana City and by Parker themselves as the leader of the group they, Dylan, and Kai were in. They should’ve been there to protect the two of them when they got kidnapped. And-

“Parker!”

At the sound of someone calling their name, Parker immediately turned to whoever callled out for them, accidentally creating a fence of crystals that encircled them whilst doing so, making Lance & Aaron quickly step back from trying to reach out to them.”

“Dear Creator- I did not mean to summon the crystals. My magic’s been a bit awry for the past couple hours.”

Aaron sighed as they tightened the grip their right hand had on Lance’s left hand, “Yeah, we know. The crystal footprints you’ve been leaving behind kinda made that a bit obvious Parker.”

Parker’s head lowered as they replied, “It’s… been hard to control my emotions for the past couple of hours.”

Lance and Aaron glanced at each other before Lance proceeded to reassure Parker, “Look, you aren’t the only one that’s worried out for Dylan & Kai. Everyone else in Chaosmos has been trying their best to help out with trying to find those two by scouting out the entire city, and Marcus & Liam called their parents to help out with the case as well since they’re Mana Officers.”

“I’ll admit, that is reassuring… but I feel like I failed as a leader considering-“

“Parker, the burden of being a team leader shouldn’t be held alone. Lance & I know that well since we lead ours together, but there’s nothing wrong with getting help from your own team members for anything. We personally get help from Zac, Macy, and Iris from time to time since all three of them are actually older than the both of us.”

A bittersweet smile grew on Parker’s face over their advice, “I.. never really thought of that. Especially considering that I’m the older person in my team unlike you two, but I’m sure Brio, Orion, and Skadi won’t mind me asking for help. Thank you twos.”

Lance smiled, “It’s our pleasure to help out. It was our collective idea to establish an alliance between our teams after all.”

“Yeah, Lance is right. We’re really grateful to help out.”

Before Parker could respond, their ArcPhone started to ring. They quickly pulled it out to answer the call, immediately being alerted over the notification.

“Seems like the Academy Dean needs me right now, and I have a good feeling for what it entails. Thanks again you two! I’ll talk to ya later!”

Lance & Aaron both waved goodbye to Parker as they walked toward the Dean’s office

OC Story: Turnout

(Regroup gang!)

Most of Team Postmythic returned back to their dorm floor after Edan got discharged from the hospital.

There wasn’t really anything else they could do besides waiting for what happens next unlike with when they jumped in to help Chaosmos back in the caverns months ago.

Ro was still at work tampering with NHP databases on her laptop whilst Nova sat by her side, Lilith & Clover kept themselves distracted through their ArcPhones to wait out for news, Brio & Orion both similarly sat impatiently to wait out, Skadi was meditating, and Edan sat close to him whilst curled in a ball as he held his legs.

None one else really had or knew anything to say, so Edan decided to break the silence.

“So… what else did I miss while I was knocked out?”

Orion sighed before responding to Edan’s question, “Besides Dylan & Kai managing to contact Ro, not much. City authorities won’t tell us anything since we’re underaged Academy students, but they’ve been searching outside Arcana City for the two of them. Mercy, Geno, and everybody else in Team Chaosmos also went out of their way to help out with the search by looking all over Arcana City for Dylan & Kai’s whereabouts too.”

Brio added on to Orion’s answer, “Authorities, and Ro for that matter, also found out that the people behind Dylan & Kai’s kidnapping were associates of the Non-Human Purgers. Ori and I’ve honestly had zero clue on who or what the NHP was before this, but that association hunts down and captures any non-human species that also harbour the power of spirit.”

Edan sighed, “Those assholes are no joke you two. The NHP is the main reason as to why me ‘n Skadi grew up in a private school that was only relegated for mythical-esque species.”

“Yeah, that and most of the founding members of that fucking group were monsters hunters that also hunted vampires like myself. Clover & I even ran into some NHP agents on our way to Arcana City.” A smirk grew on Lilith’s face as she continued to speak, “I’m not saying we decided to pick a fight with them & ended up winning, but-“

“Yeah, we kicked their asses. Those assholes did not expect me to pull out a greatsword, and their reaction was hilarious. Lill also sucked out their blood and looked pretty hot whilst doing so, but that’s just my opinion.”

Everyone stared at Clover as she finished her add-on to Lilith’s reply. “I… uh, sorry about the unintentional mood change.”

Ro chuckled as she still kept her eyesight pointed towards her laptop screen, “It’s nothin’ Clover. But, you guys remember what Nova & I said during the week break we had after the whole caverns incident?”

Skadi opened her eyes from her meditation trance over Ro’s question, “We do Ro. It is becoming apparent that everyone here excluding the both of you’ve went through something terrible, and I get that the both of you are concerned over that.”

“I’m glad ya understand that. Ro & I want to do our best to help you guys out with whatever we can when it comes to stuff like that. Even if it’s just words of support.”

Edan smiled, “Thanks Nova… and I’m surprised that it took me this long to ask this but…”

He looked around before continuing his question,

“Where’s Parker?”

OC Story: Linguistics

(In commemoration of Ro’s birthday, here’s her [and Nova’s] rewritten backstory!)

Ro never really liked the concept of language, especially considering her upbringing as someone that was born lacking the ability to hear.

Even if she quickly learned sign language as a kid, she could still just use her hearing aids or even read a person’s lips.

It all sounded pointless to her.

She does technically like some certain languages, but they’re connected to programming more than vocals. Taking a liking to programming is somewhat second nature to a hacker like herself after all.

This was all in the back in her head as Nova stood in front of her whilst the both of them were currently in Ro’s room.

Nova was a good friend of Ro’s for a while. She didn’t really care about Ro’s disability, having befriended Ro because of how intrigued she was over her paranormal-obsessed bloodline & her hacking hobbies.

Ro similarly befriended Nova for the same reason. Her love for anything and everything relating to astronomy & astrology felt intriguing in a way, alongside her bloodline’s deep connection to the outer galaxy despite her human ancestry.

Nova looked nervous from Ro’s perspective as she tightly gripped the bottom of her skirt, taking a deep breath before she started to speak, “So… do you still understand signing? I know that stuff isn’t really your thing since-”

“Yeah, yeah I can still read sign language Nova.” Ro sighed as she replied to her question. “Why are you…”

Before she could finish her question, Nova took a deep breath as she put her right hand towards her heart.

To Ro’s surprise, Nova proceeded to point to her chest with her index finger, held her opposite hand in front of her with her palm up, and then fluidly bushed her original index finger against the tip of her nose before bringing it forward, and then bounced her still-pointed hand along her flat hand twice. All with a nervous smile on her face.

Ro was speechless over Nova’s gesture, almost to the point of Nova worrying over it, “Did I sign it correctly? I swear I double checked if it was right or not, but what I was trying to sign was that-“

She chuckled over Nova’s worries, quickly grabbing both of her hands with hers as she reassured her with a sincere smile on her face, “No it’s not that. I’m just genuinely surprised that you went out of your way to learn to sign for this.”

Ro pulled Nova closer before she continued to speak, “And the feeling’s mutual Nova.”

The smile on Nova’s face grew as Ro finished saying that, now having gained courage to bring Ro into their first kiss.

Ro similarly realized that Nova was bringing the two of them into a kiss, and pulled her closer as she held her hips whilst Nova cradled her cheek.

And as the two of them shared their first kiss, Ro came to realize that languages are important, whether said languages are or aren’t solely used for programming
