Ruby's F/o Tournament - Round 2 - Match 6
Vote based on whatever criteria you see fit; the ship of mine you prefer, or whichever character you prefer, or - if you don't know either - whoever you like the vibe of more! Propaganda below the cut. May the best f/o win! 🤎💜❤️
Indiana Jones
This f/o has received no propaganda.
Notes from Ruby: Indiana Jones could probably win based on having the best theme music ever made for any character ever, but other than the amazing soundtrack, he's brave, adventurous, intelligent, rugged, snarky, AND kills Nazis. The perfect man!! 🤎🤎🤎
Q
From anonymous: He's borderline omnipotent and making that everyone's problem. His idea of a favor was to force the bridge crew of a starship to do a Robin Hood LARP. He may be bored out of his mind, but you never will be again. What's not to love?
Notes from Ruby: Q is an absolute and total bastard... and I adore him for it so very much. He acts like he only messes with the humans aboard the Enterprise-D out of nothing but boredom, but anyone paying attention would be able to tell that he only keeps showing up because he's incredibly lonely. Plus, he's incredibly dramatic, incredibly arrogant and incredibly fruity, and over the course of the Next Generation, goes from an antagonistic threat to a weird guy who shows up just to mess with people. Plus, he's played by John deLancie who ALSO plays Discord in MLP, in case you were wondering why his chaotic nature seemed so familiar. ❤️❤️❤️
It's not too late! Click here to submit propaganda for any f/o(s)!

A/N: My gift for the incredibly talented @dicenete 💜 as part of the excellent @flash-exchange
Prompt: Make It Quiet
Clavis x Reader
WC: 552
“Ah…..there you are. I was just wondering where the brightest jewel in this sea of noble gemstones had ventured off to. I have been speaking to some of our esteemed guests and I’m sure you would have delighted the Azurite prince–”
“You have to come with me.”
He blinks. “Now?”
“Right now.”
“Oh my, my lamb seems rather impatient. Don’t you want to have a quick dance? The orchestra is just finished warming up and–”
“C’mon.” You seize his hand, a prisoner held tightly in your satin glove.
“What a delightful turn of events. Are you perhaps hungry -Pardon me, sir- Yves has outdone himself overseeing the food -Excuse me, madame- although it lacks originality if you ask me-…Um…Darling? This is an exit.”
“Exactly. Come along.”
“I see I never knew the true strength of your grip. You are very insistent, my love. My, how dark the hallway is compared to the bright lighting of the ballroom. Are you sure–”
“Just a little further.”
“Your laughter tells me I shouldn’t be so suspicious. What sort of adventure is my sweet one taking me on? I- Wait, why are we stopping? There’s nothing here.”
“Wrong. THIS is here.”
“An alcove? Are you sure, sweetheart? There isn’t even a statue or painting or decorative anything! It’s nothing but darkness.”
“So perceptive. Come closer.”
“Have I mentioned how astoundingly strong your grip–”
“Stop. Talking.”
Shrouded by the shadows of the alcove, you cover his mouth with yours, fingers curled into the soft velvet of his lavender lapel.
Clavis does not speak. He can’t. He is powerless in the face of your radiant desire. All he can do is return your fervent kisses. He wasn’t entirely wrong about your appetite. Each kiss is hungrier than the last. His back is soon pressed against the smooth, cool wall, a startling contrast to the hastening heat of your body which he can feel through your layers of silk and brocade.
You graze the elegant line of his neck with your lips as you speak.
“I saw you talking to all those people-”
“Esteemed guests, my sweet,” he gasps, his hands grasping at the folds of your voluminous gown as if he needs something to hold on to, lest he fall.
“And you looked so…..” You take his bottom lip between your teeth and bite, just hard enough for him to inhale sharply. “So at ease, in your element. So collected and calm.” Your hands slide down his sides, slip inside his waistcoat. “I suddenly had the burning desire to see you….unsettled.”
Your hands slide down further, over expensive silk and shiny golden buttons and butter-soft leather and metal buckles.
Is he….trembling?
“I believe,” he says breathlessly, “you are getting what you desire, my darling.”
Your smile is hidden in the darkness but he can taste it on your lips.
“Almost.”
“Ah….my love…..” He is losing this battle, falling backwards off the cliff of reason and hurtling towards the sea of no return. “Anyone….could walk by.”
But you both know his protest is hollow as his hands are already under the heavy folds of your skirts, gripping your thighs, pulling you towards him.
”Don’t worry, my prince,” you murmur against his ear, a music that rivals the greatest of orchestras. “We’ll make it quiet.”

4-17-18 for myself
The moose and the goose wandered around with nothing to do,
Until they drank at a lake and across was you know who.
They traveled together all the way to Timbuktu!
Sharing stores of past loves and laughs,
Not knowing why their life brought them to this path.
Miles and miles they walked as the days seemed to get longer,
But they just kept on going not letting that bother.
From time to time they would stop to rest,
Assure themselves they were doing their best.
When they got to this gully, they saw a bully.
And teamed together to stop him from hurting;
Brought him on their adventure,
And let him talk of what inside was turning.
At the end of their walk;
the moose and the goose realized why they had met,
To take the time to help someone else realize respect.
Respect for themselves and the beauty around them.
That bully for a moment took in his surroundings a bit
Only to realize no matter what his new friends looked like
He finally seemed to fit. 💜
When the lamb met the lion he asked
What there was to life after this
Nothing just be happy and be free
He replied
That story has already been written for thee
Take this life
Make those wishes
Raise those hopes
For when the day is done
And the sun starts to fade
Life is a game
And you my little lamb you are the arcade. 💙
4-18-18
The little bunny looked so funny playing with the duck
Rolling around on the ground having so much fun
With smiles in tacted and laughs in progress
They were so care free it sent chills down my spine
to be so pure and full of life
is to say be the least the best
not knowing what this world beholds
not knowing what the future holds
just knowing how it feels to see Mom smile
knowing how it feels to laugh with Dad a while
endless possibilities all at her fingertips
lessons and triumphs in her abyss
it is these fine little moments
I have no doubt as a mother
I will truly miss. 💜
I'm so happy I take photos
Capturing memories for fun
And at the end when all is said and done...
no matter how we felt in those prior moments and days
even when our minds felt like a circus of parades..
Sometimes the past we all wish to go back to. 💜
4.19.18
missing my family a bit more than I would like to admit. in life you have the family you are born into and the family you chose, at some point they mesh together as the pieces begin to fuse.
the more you pull away, the more they try to stay. to prove to you that you are worth the greatest things life has to offer even when things seem to dark to try and bother. there is a bond between those who share blood, those who share memories full of life and love.
tears, years, pains, gains and far from un heard screams. all I want for you is to find YOUR happiness and to fulfill YOUR dreams. I may take my space, I may sometimes hide. but it is only to protect myself, protect my pride. To hold onto what I have built to survive but please never for a moment think I don't hear your cries.
When you are growing up you are led to believe motherhood comes so easy - from breastfeeding to diaper changes and all the oddities in-between - it wasn't until I held you in my arms that I knew what kind of mother I was. I was your mother and that was as perfect as it will ever be. Everyone does things differently, everyone second guesses if they are doing things right. But for what reasons when in retrospect, it's only our actions and thoughts that bring that fright. yes other people and places may have painted things a different color but it is from inside your character, inside your being that shows you your true mother.
your true nurture by nature and all that is glory
4.20.18
consider yourself blessed to be able to touch feel smell taste & experience the outside world - some people never get the chance. trust me and all my scars that depression can be a serious life changing thing and sometimes getting out is harder it seems than breathing since that just kind of happens and thus we keep on living.
4.21.18
Some moments are harder than others
Some hard to grasp
As they vanish so fast
My how fast they flee
While emotions take a hold of thee
Are you supposed to have a button
Which just brings you to center
In moments of intense uninvited endeavor.
Tossing and turning
What is sleep anymore
All for this little bundle of joy
All for this little girl
All for this tiny human being
who has completely changed my world.
Oh how I cherish you.
Tales of a shattered heart
A misguided judgement of unspoken terror
not knowing where exactly this life took error.
The tales of a brand-new mother.
4.22.18 7am [bathtime]
Man I haven't scrubbed walls since 2007
By this day and age I thought I'd be in 'heaven'
not saying I'm not happy I am here
Just back then my mind was filled with such fear
Do any other moms just wake up and start to clean?
without a second thought about it
Eyes open like..
"Oh shit those clothes...they need folded"
As you float out of bed..
Talking to yourself over and over in your head
"But I just want to sit" "But I just want to not" "But can't someone else do it" "But I just want to cry" "But I just want to be" "But does anyone else feel like this or am I all aone"
My head filled with so much "but"
Yet sometimes I don't like the one I have to sit on.
Sometimes I wish things were much easier
Yet there is so much harm in that..
I wouldn't be the amazing person I am today
Had I not gone though all that crap.
All those things that made me stronger
All those things that made the nights seem longer
Made days never ending and life seemed like one big book.
Until I stepped back and took a hard look..
Went to rebab and back to find who I am
Yet..I'll always be wandering.
I'll always be wondering.
I'll always be t h i n k i n g
What if things were easier?
Constant battles in my head.
One fighting the other to leave things unsaid.
I miss having people.
I miss having friends
I pushed people away when I needed them the most.
I hit the panic button and my being went ghost.
Over the years I disappeared more and more.
Doing drugs to numb the core.
Til one day I woke up again..
Woke up wanting to feel,
Not wanting to suffer,
Just wanting to heal.
Take time i said.
It will be your longest journey
But at the end of all of it
Hopefully you'll figure out why you're hurting.
Come to terms with the past
As they lay where they do
Just keep turning the pages
In that book that is you.
4.23.18
Sometimes I just want to cut my wrists open
Just to see how much I bleed
It's like unless I feel the pain on my flesh
My mind will never find ease
I smoke away the pain
Day after day
But when all the demons manifest
When the next day comes to play
Open my eyes to a world full of options
And yet to no surprise -
All I want to do
Is lock myself in the bathroom
And take some time to myself
I need those few moments to recollect my health
I know I am a wonder woman
Full of so much strength
But when the darkness tries to take a hold
It's so hard to keep my eye on the gold
More distant and cold it feels
As the days turn into months
Not knowing when I can speak
Just knowing when to keep quiet
Knowing when the darkness comes
I can't do anything but hide it.
I wonder who I was before the harm
Before those moments that stole my charm
Took me away from reality and set my mind in a twirl
The someone I never got the pleasure of meeting
That undisturbed Elissa, that quiet little girl.
I wonder if why I starve myself
I think it's the only way to hide
to hide the hurt, the pain, I really feel inside.
When things get really bad
I need to physically feel pain
So I sit alone day after day
Not allowing food into my brain.
Because razors show blood and blood shows scars
But as my insides lay dying
And a smile on my face
Noone can tell that inside my soul
Is a sprit that needs ecscapes.
I write, and I just want to be heard.
They are truly beautiful writings.
Even if some are disturbed. 💙
4.24.18
So much distress
So much anxiety
When you walk through the door
And I don't know what to say to
I can't imagine a life without you
But I know I deserve the best
Is it that you truly don't want to be my one and only
Or are you too broken inside to try to figure out the pieces
I decided to have a family with you because you are my best friend
I thought you went out and realized it was me you wanted in the end
My mind just races with un happy thoughts
Reminiscing on the faces that we have seen in the past
Wondering why I was so broken I tried to distroy the one I loved
Why I ever did the things that scared your being so much
You question our love
You question if it's right or wrong
You question if you really mean to inflict harm
All I want is for you to find happiness
But in doing that allow me to be myself
Allow me to have friends and not question my intentions
But if you do have fears, call for interventions
I want to have this life with you
I want to continue making memories
But now with our daughter
Who needs the both of us
And if this isn't something you see for the longrun
Than I have to do what's best for her
I don't want you to pack your things one day when she is four
And all she knows is dad's gone, he went out the door
She seems him sometimes but mom seems sad
Never having the real answers of why things went so bad
I'll allow her to ask questions as I wish I could
To pry and to analyze
What happened to her.
When you came back into my life,
And the fire in my heart grew bigger again,
We decided to start a family.
But for some odd reason
That doesn't seem to be your winner
At least not anymore.
Is it because anytime you have tried to change
It's all lead to sadness?
Well guess what sweeite -
The world is full of that shit,
It's all maddness
But sometimes you stumble
Sometimes you find
Someone you become passionate about
And you suddenly become humble.
I just want to be that person you trust
The person you can talk to
When your whole world starts to crumble.
4.26.18
I feel like an unfit mother
Just going through the waves
All of the days turn to nights
With in between bits of rage.
Do I want a different life?
No, I just want things to change.
I want to have more opportunities for myself
More things to do with my daughter.
If you don't want to be part of this life
The one I thought we created together
I'll be okay, I know that to be certain
Doesn't mean it will be easy or won't be a burden.
I would have never done this
if I didn't want to work through things with you
But as time journeys forward it seems clear what to do.
It feels like you need to be alone,
Shit maybe we both do
To take the time to look inside
To see what's just a true
I won't keep her from you
I wouldn't ever wish that on anyone
I know what it was like to have one parent,
You do to - only opposites and look how great we turned out.
I will always question what it's like to have a mom
To have someone comb your hair for you and
Not just pop back into your life when I'm 13 and smoke a bong
And you'll always wonder what it was like to have a dad
Someone to go pick bugs with you out the grass
I never wished this upon my children but I understand
That when we are so close together
Things get tangled and it feels hard to breathe
Sometimes you just need a break but here we have no space
Even with all the miles and empty roads here in Hagerstown.
5.5.18
I love my birthday
It's like every year I have an excuse to grow up.
5.6.18
As the dust settles and we wind up back "home"
I can't help but feel distance
I can't help but feel alone
Like I am on this journey with two shadows
One whom can't speak
And one who can't seem to enjoy the things I keep.
TIRED. FEARFUL & ALONE
How is one supposed to call this place home?
Just back from such a lovely adventure
Made memories in which I'll forever treasure
Blessed beyond belief to experience this life
So compassionate about having our own child
In which to provide courage and protect
Not show weakness and disregard and disrespect
From someone who claims to love or even try and care
Yet when shit hits the fan and the mask of happiness is removed
You don't wish to see the tears I hide and the madness I keep inside
I know you don't know what it's like to have family
But I know what it's like to have someone who cares
I know what unconditional love feels like and I need that again.
I found it in my father. I thought I found it in you, friend.
In these bodies we will live
In these bodies we will die
Where you invest your love
You invest your life.
5.8.18
All these songs about drugs money women and sex
What about self love, good nutrition and self respect.
What about not second guessing your intuition.
What about making the best of every situation
and leading your own life instead of fallowing others limitations?
Instead of how to numb yourself on every radio station..
Why don't we teach our youth about hardships and self preservation?
I was always so back and forth about having children
Knowing this world we live in
One full of such fear and constant strife
I just know I don't want my kids to live the same life.
If there is anything I wish to teach my daughter,
It is how to love herself.
For friends, family, pets, flowers -
everything comes and goes and you only get one you.
So please if you can do one thing for yourself,
Forget what standards other people hold you to.
Take those moments for yourself.
Take that quiet time.
Take those little steps you must,
In order to feel prime.
All you have is 24 hours to do things differently.
To serve a different plate
And taste a different life
To do things to center yourself
To make sure you're alright.
For if in every 24 hours we could listen to ourselves
We could take out those memories and dust them off the shelf
We could make new memories and not stay so stuck in the past
We could make those memories self sufficient and kind
We could take those moments and change the ripple of time.
we all have our moments. that is what makes life worth living. If things were always beautiful, there would be no room for growth :)
5-21-18
I miss people. I miss human contact
Someone to listen to me and not zone me out
Someone to hang out with and talk about what life is about
I find myself waiting as soon as you leave
For you to return back home
But for what?
It's not like when you return I feel less alone.
Hours and hours spent waiting for the door to open
Only to have it happen and I feel even worse
I thought it was a blessing
Maybe it is a curse.
How does one make friends these days
When we are all hiding behind our phones
Day after day I just want people to talk to
So I don't feel so alone.
5-22-18
Little Leighra Nova
You are the light of my world
You are everything I ever dreamed a child would be
And I am beyond words blessed to be able to call you my daughter
You make me want to live everyday like the last but work harder
I love you endlessly and you are my ray of sunshine
Never for a moment doubt my love for you
For it's one I have never known
But inside me each and every second
My admiration for you has grown.
I love you to the ends of the Earth and back again
You are my favorite person in this universe,
And maybe the next.

Memory lane and picnic 💜
hiya lovely!! thanks for the qs 🥰💜
memory lane - what’s one thing you hope to accomplish that you can be proud of in the future?
finishing and publishing a book!! it’s always been my dream since i was a kid to be a writer and to tell stories. there isn’t a day that goes by where i don’t think about that little kid, sitting on that hole filled rubbery floor of an elementary school playset, scribbling furiously into a notebook instead of playing. that kid who reread the brilliant musings of a 9 year old and thought “this is the greatest book ever written.” i am going to write a book, and i am going to publish it, and i am going to make that little kid proud.
picnic - what’s your dream date?
i’m all about spontaneous. surprise me. take me anywhere and get me to do anything. (like, so long as i’m comfortable of course. and i’m not about exertion so don’t like take me into the forest for a hike, unless it’s like a really tiny trail or something bc honestly just thinking about pretty views makes me want to pretend i like hiking lmao) i want an adventure. maybe we go out for surprise brunch at a cute little diner. maybe we throw our shit in the car drive three hours to a zoo in another state. maybe take one look at an interesting place on the side of the road while we’re out on errands and just can’t pass up the opportunity to check it out and end up on an unplanned date at some random touristy place we’ve never heard of, running around being fools for hours.

Notes from Ruby: Indy has been a character I've loved since I was a kid before rightfully giving him a spot on my f/o list last year. He's brave and quick-witted, but still has some babygirl factor, plus he kills N*zis!! What's not to love? 🤎🤎🤎

In the past you had a hard time trusting your intuition even when receiving signs and synchronicities.
Doubts, uncertainty, and fear kept you captive.
As your universe shifted into making you uncomfortable to stay where you are, you finally became comfortable in leaving the situations you found yourself in.
You had doubted your strength and perseverance, but through the discomfort and sadness, you have realized you are a lot stronger than you gave yourself credit for.
I must remind you today that it is okay to feel exhausted and weak, but it shouldn't discredit how far you've come.
❄️Was it fair or just?
At times, no.
But the universe is never subtle and neither are our experiences.
Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on your perspective, it is through your greatest challenges you find yourself and learn what you're truly capable of.
Life can be a an adventure and at times, along the journey, a treacherous one but if there's one thing you must never forget: that you're a survivor.
💪🏽⚡🏆
Thank you for being here 💜

The (not very concise) story of our sparkly Arcade Fire adventures (Chapter 8: IoW - Another Epic Performance)
Jules and I had both clocked the drum mid-stage and had an idea we knew what that meant. They had been opening the odd show with Wake Up and we knew it was more than likely coming. This meant we were able to emotionally brace ourselves sufficiently to survive (phew). Usual walk on music and here they are, this time more of a black and blue combo, with Will wearing denim and a pink shirt.
WAKE UP: I love this song so much but for some reason at the start of the show this tune didn’t quite have the emotional resonance it usually has. It feels like a song you need to build up to. Still I suppose it gets the festival goers who are less familiar with Arcade Fire into the set.
EVERYTHING NOW: I get the ‘whoops’ right again but Jules fails 🙄.
There were some annoying photographers in front of us for the first few tracks. And a security man that keeps stopping in front of us on the step the other side of the barrier - I was so tempted to push him out the way!! 😠
HAITI, HERE COMES THE NIGHTIME, NO CARS GO, NEON BIBLE, THE SUBURBS, READY TO START: These all pass in a haze of epicness! We’re in the zone 😁
TUNNELS: So good of them to play this just for us again. We sing along at the top of our voices! 💜💜
REFLEKTOR, AFTERLIFE: The usual passionate Win-kneel at the front of the stage.
SIGNS OF LIFE: Getting into this tune now. We feel like we have some ownership of it since they played it for the first time in Scunthorpe (especially for us) 😂.
WE EXIST, CREATURE COMFORT: One thing you miss out on a bit being at the front is the staging. They are performing in front of a glass box that can be filled with smoke, light, lasers and images. During Creature Comfort they pretty much lose themselves in smoke - it’s very effective.
POWER OUT: Sigh, once again this was so amazing!! I could listen to this a thousand times over and not get bored! I leap about like a woman possessed and don’t care 🤷🏻♀️
REBELLION: Creature Comfort into Power Out into Rebellion, two of my favourite transitions there. We are pretty certain Will isn’t going to crash the crowd this time but watch him like a hawk. He’s beating the shit out of that drum, so much life and energy. “Every time you close your eyes ....LIES, LIES ..... oooooooo” as the song is drawing to an end Will makes his way down to the barrier and runs along, banging his drum, loving life! Cue the greatest photo ever taken (credit to Jules). The Muppets to Will’s left really make it special!
SPRAWL II and end. I guess they’ve got a very strict end time. Sprawl II is wonderful (streamers and all) but it wouldn’t be my choice of set climax. Still ... WOW!!
So we walk back to the most expensive Travelodge of all time (seriously, the price we had to pay, don’t even start me). We feel exhilarated and happy, it wasn’t Scunthorpe but surely nothing would ever match that anyway 🤔. I guess the thing that was missing that evening was the raw emotion. We felt uplifted and buzzy but that edge that some people describe as ‘spiritual’ wasn’t quite there. But what an evening and what a week. Chuffing hell how could we possibly ever recover?!?!

Ruby's F/o Tournament - Round 1 - Match 6
Vote based on whatever criteria you see fit; either the character you prefer, or ship you prefer, or even whoever you like the vibe of more! Propaganda below the cut. May the best f/o win! 💙💜🤎
Scrooge
This f/o has received no propaganda.
Notes from Ruby: Old men will be the death of me. Anyways, Scrooge! He's a grumpy old man that hates everyone and everything, and although we all know he does eventually turn that ideology around, I like to think that I might help bring some light into his life even before that fateful Christmas eve. Also, I just kind of like characters that are jerks for fun, and this version of Scrooge, at least in the first half of the film, definitely delights in spreading misery. 💙💙💙
Indiana Jones
This f/o has received no propaganda.
Notes from Ruby: The one and only globe-trotting, N*zi-killing, all-American hero! Although I only recently added Indiana back onto the list last year, he's actually been with me for a lot longer; I remember all the way back in 4th grade when we were told to write our life goals on a piece of paper, I wrote... "marry Indiana Jones". Nowadays I don't know if I've changed too much! 🤎🤎🤎
Its not too late! Click here to submit propaganda for any f/o(s)!

Dr. Jones! How did you and Ruby meet, and what's your ideal date with them? (@dzvagabond)
🏺Well, Ruby and I actually met in our college days. We both had a shared interest in ancient history, especially the artifacts left behind by those long-gone civilizations. But there were so many girls back then that it was hard to keep track, so I completely forgot about her until we met again all these years later... No, I can't lie about this. Ruby was always special. That's why, when she was hired at the same university that I teach at, I was actually nervous to see her again. Because I knew that the last time we spoke was the day that we split up, the day I broke her heart... 🏺
🏺 But that's a story for another time. Nowadays we've worked things out - even if she sure as hell didn't make it easy - and been trying to make up for lost time. My ideal date would be going out for something like a nice steak dinner, but we seem to spend most of our nights together grading essays or researching ancient artifacts. That's not my idea of a romantic evening, but just having her with me does make the grind a bit more bearable.🏺

Waaaaauuuh okay I just woke up but YES, as mentioned last night, today is the first anniversary of when I put Indiana Jones back on my f/o list! 💖💖💖 Even though I only added him to the list a year ago, on my carrd it says "reunited 5/29/22" because Indy was one of the first characters I ever caught feelings for. Technically, he was the first character I ever drew self ship art of back in 4th grade! I know I may not talk about him too often, but he's still very important to me and I think he deserved a spot on the list, he's like a legacy f/o 💖💖💖 So, happy anniversary, Dr. Jones. I'm glad we're finally celebrating it 🥺💖🥺💖🥺💖🥺💖
