dergtober -- day 17 -- Lost

Sabrathan’s tail flicked to and fro as she craned her neck over the window ledge, the rest of her long body reclining lazily on the chamber floor. She shook out her antlers, they tinkled with the small bells and the festive streamers she had tied to it for the celebration. She sighed, she was beginning to tire of them now.

She watched her clan mates fly and twist in the cloudless sky to the tune of ecstatic horns, flutes and drums below. The sun was setting on the last days of the Mistral festival and soon they would return to the light territory. Sabra didn’t feel ready to leave.

She glanced at the satchel she had brought over, once heavy with sunbeam fig treats, dried sour strawberries and pelagas bark tea. She had brought a lantern fashioned from painted paper and filled with glowing Reedcleft Sparklers. There had been golden tortoise shells and ferret pelts strapped to to her bags that had clinked and flapped the entire flight over. Now all traded for scrolls.

She had read every one of them as soon as she could; poems, treatise, hatchling doodles and all sorts of wonderful insights into the Cloudsong’s ways. Yet she didn’t recognise a single one. No poems about abandoning hatchlings or apology letters to her directly. She was a fool. All she wanted, she had to admit, was two words. Just two words. ‘Moon Road’.

“Scuse’ me.”

Sabrathan lifted her heavy head to see a little Spiral fledgling tugging at her mane. She smiled, it was one of the little ones of the Wind clan who were hosting them. She was covered in swirling colourful face paints and smiling with a toothy grin.

“Yes? Can I help you?”

“Ondran said that Lea said that Amble said you had sticky june bug sweets.” She handed over a scroll smudged with facepaint, “Can I trade you for some?”

“Of course you can!” Sabra laughed and pulled out a small bag of dried june bugs coated in toffee, “Here you go...!”

The Spiral beamed and immeadiately began crunching on it before scampering out the chamber, returning only to pop her head through the chamber door to thank her and scurrying away again.

Sabra idly toyed with the seal on the scroll; maybe it was better to leave them unopened, she thought, she wouldn’t leave on a disappointed note. She looked out the window and saw the spiral now clumsily flying through the air, sharing out her toffee bugs to her nest mates. She gave her a wave and Sabrathan chuckled.

What’s the festival without trying to take a chance and have a bit of fun?

She broke the seal and unfurled the bamboo paper. No doodle or spring haiku, just a map. She furrowed her brow as she read over the blotchy green ink, it wasn’t easy to parse but the location wasn’t that far off from where she was staying. She checked her compass, South-West on an Islet in Singer’s Brook.

She strapped on her satchel and jingled her antler bells again for good measure before leaping from the window into the air. Soon a small party of her clan mates and hosts joined her as she sailed in the air. The face painted fledglings looped around her until they waved her off. What better way to get into her home-flight spirit than take off on an adventure...?

After she had left the Cloudsong, the melodies and drumming became distant and she could only her the gentle tinkling of her bells. An hour or two passed and the sun had sunken into twilight. Reedcleft sparklers lit up her descent, disturbed from their perches but the gust from her large wings.

“Here we are...” She whispered to herself.

The islet felt like a whispering place. A place didn’t demand quiet, but inspired it.

Statuettes of spirit guardians sat on the edge of the brook that forked around the islet. Frogs, axolotls, cranes and kitsune, all eyeing her in the luminous nightfall. A small shrine lantern covered in moss sat nearby, long abandoned and worn. She ought to leave an offering before she took off, she thought. She curled up under a willow and caught her breath from the journey. Its fronds hung over her and formed a little shelter, it felt cozy under the dimming skies.

She wondered if there was anything special about this islet, other than the fact it was as serene as it was. She laid her head down, perhaps flying out so late wasn’t the wisest idea. But she could lay down to sleep in this unclaimed territory until morning.

The Moon rose over head and the stars began to wink into focus. Then, a fwoosh. A blue flame woke in the shrine lantern. Sabra almost jumped up before she noticed another then another all lighting one after another. She hadn’t noticed the other lanterns encircling the islet, some were broken and half sunken into the moss. Yet they lit up all the same.

She got up and wandered to check on them, perhaps this was a sacred place and she ought to move on with an apology to the spirits. Then, she spotted the tomb stone. An upright stone, covered in chickweed and sandcreeper. Perhaps she could make amends by clearing it from its face to allow it to be legible.

She pulled off the foliage gently with her claws, trying to mind the stone beneath.

- Tomb of the Moon Road Clan - Our Souls rest before their journey into the stars, carried on the Great Singer’s winds...

Sabrathan’s mouth fell open. The silence that had haunted her life where her family should have been wrapped around her in that moment. Every prayer for a memory of understanding beyond the words left to her as a young hatchling, ‘Moon Road’, had been answered by the silence she was engulfed by.

She read the names by starlight. Of course, she recognised no one, she had been so young after all. To be found carried on a storm to the Hewn City ruins, the only words she knew was ‘Moon Road’ she had parroted until she was ready to learn to read.

She had her answer now. A heavy, thudding, painful answer, a heavy burden to carry home. She wept, throwing herself at the bottom of the tombstone. She sobbed until the crickets stopped singing. Sabrathan finally ran out of tears and heaved a rattling sigh.

She didn’t feel heavy at all. Something had lifted from her chest, and the journey home would be the easiest it had ever been...

＃3：Tempest

"Close the flap, Izzy. You're letting the rain in."

The storm battered against their tent that not even tying the flap down could stop the brothers from hearing the wind howl outside. Joshua huddled at the other end of the tent while Wil nestled itself snugly in Isillud's coat, folded and placed beside his pillow. Isillud tucked his legs close to his chest, concerned for his brother and the storm.

He didn't need to ask; Joshua understood. "The Garleans have left Dalmasca. Nobody will be patrolling the cliffs in this storm." The younger elezen looked up from his book, "Though once it subsides, we must enter the city immediately."

His brother's uneasiness did not go ignored. "A gil for your thoughts," Joshua offered.

Isllud sighed, reaching to pet the crow. "What if it's gone? What if we came for naught?"

"Look, you want to listen to an aetherial tart-"

"The 'aetherial tart' was our mother."

"She looked like our mother, you said," Joshua corrrected him. "But there's no reason for Sydney to lie. If the Dark is calling you, then it most likely. We'll figure the why of it when we enter." He snapped the book shut and pulled his blanket to his chin. "Time passes faster if we rest now."

Isillud rested his hands on his stomach as he lay. "I wish grandfather was here."

"I wish he was too." Joshua turned to face the tarp. "So I can kick his arse for foisting this on us."

───────── ౨ৎ ─────────

Dew and salt mingled in the morning mist, a sunbeam shining over the ruins. "There it is, Izzy: Old Lea Monde."

The tide had subsided to reveal a ruined city, the waters of Valnard lapping at the edges, seeping through cracks and creating rivers where streets used to be.

"After you."

The Refugee: Chapter 37

Masterlist link

Loki stayed true to his promise and kept watch over the sleeping form of Lenora the whole night. Daybreak began to stream into the tower room and over the couch where they had settled and Lenora shifted in his arms as the sunshine kissed her face.

He watched as the light glimmered in her parting dark lashes and flashed over the dusky ink and violet halos of her irises, like a sunbeam shining over a deep well. Vlad held his vigil as well but over the course of the evening made his rounds to different corners of the room. His eyes never seemed to leave Loki, regardless of where he settled.

She was waking slowly on her own, but he wished he could let her sleep a little longer. Unfortunately, he had to go. “Lenora, darling. I have to attend a meeting of the generals soon, so I need you to get ready to go to the medical wing for observation.”

She nodded from beneath disheveled hair. “What sort of meeting?”

He was taken aback at her interest. “Well...we'll be discussing the movements of the Jotun. That sort of thing. Thor will be there as well.”

“May I come with you? I need to be informed of the war's progress if I'm to be of any use.”

For a second, he was dumbstruck by this cold efficient Lenora who seemed to replace the angry mournful ghost of Lenora from the terrible night before. “Uh...yes..of course. But are you sure you feel up to it?”

She nodded. “I'm going to clean up and dress. I'll just be a moment,” she informed him, already heading towards the bathroom as he began to interrupt, ready to tell her she wasn't allowed to be alone.

“Loki,” she sighed, “there aren't any windows to jump out of in the bathroom. Just give me a few minutes.”

He blushed a little in embarrassment, then stood and magicked himself clean and orderly again in preparation for the day. Just as he was finishing up himself, Lea swung out in a cloud of steam wearing the kind of leggings, tunic, and boots that the young knights might wear, hair swept up with a stylus. She gave him a wary glare as she came over to her jewelry and magicked them away in a purple flash to her pocket universe. “I'm sure you won't blame me for finding a more secure place to store these,” she said, as she strode to the door.

Loki hesitated and gave her an annoyed glance, nodding to her outfit. “Really?” he said dryly.

“Loki, pick your battles. I can look like this and be useful without discomfort or you can find a a very nice gown being used as kindling in that hearth in a few hours.” She smirked wryly at him but then her face quickly fell to seriousness. “Look me in the eye and tell me you'll keep your promise not to hurt Magnus if I behave...uh...as myself.”

Loki met her gaze with a sincerity that startled her. “Lenora, I swear to you. I won't hurt him. He's safe no matter what you do.” He stroked her hair behind her ear, kissed her forehead, then just stared at her for a moment.

“What?” she said, impatiently.

“You're really something, you know that?” he said with a very tired smirk. “You have iron in your spine, little empress.”

She shrugged. “You'd know, wouldn't you?” she quipped gesturing to her back, where his blade had been. “Look, I can be miserable, half-insane, and uselessly self-destructive, or I can be miserable, half-insane, and useful. I might as well be useful. If I don't distract myself I'm going to lose my mind entirely.” Unable to meet Loki's beautiful gaze for fear of emotions making an entrance, she instead looked around for Vlad, who was napping in a corner, having been relieved of his guard duty. She was happy to let him sleep as she closed the door behind them.

---

She sat attentively, taking meticulous notes for herself at the table of generals and department heads in the war room, scanning over the map littered with figurines and notes of strategy. Thor was surprised to see her, but greeted her warmly, pulling out a seat beside himself for her. What began as civil debriefing and debate was quickly descending into a room full of men yelling over each other.

Lea leaned over to Thor and asked, “Can you help me get their attention, please. I have some thoughts.”

Thor nodded. “My pleasure, sister,” he said standing. His bellow of “SILENCE!” ricocheted through the echoing hall as Lea stood.

She said, “Thank you. Gentlemen I have several ideas for your consideration.” They grumbled but the two royal sons of Asgard shooting them death glares silenced them.

“Your Highness, am I correct in assuming that our main problem lies in gaining the cooperation of the protectorates and incorporated kingdom to send forces against the Jotun?” Lea stood as tall as she could with a wide legged posture, trying to match the men in the room, and pointed out the problematic areas on the map.

Loki spoke in his regal tone. “That is correct. Since many are conquered territories they are rather...shall we say...unenthusiastic about sending military aid against the Jotun, though it is in their own best interest.”

Lea said very thoughtfully and deliberately, “What if the empire were to make it much more in their best interest to do so?”

Loki nodded, intrigued, “Are you suggesting bribery?”

“No sir, I'm suggesting that the carrot almost always works more effectively than the stick.”

He hummed in thought. “go on.”

“Perhaps the empire's reach lately has been exceeding its grasp...gaining and conquering territories and kingdoms that are burdening the empire at large with more responsibilities of overseeing governance and compliance. Sire, the calculations are clear, you would have to relinquish some territories soon, even without a war on your plate, but in this context we can use it to our advantage.”

“Lady Lenora...your point. I suggest you make it.” Loki said, wincing a little at his bruised ego.

“What if you offered the reluctant territories the reward of full restored sovereignty and some reparations in exchange for their full military support against the Jotun? The empire gets what it needs at less of a loss than simply relinquishing your rule. Also the public perception of a generous and deliberate gesture will read much better than a loss of control. What say you, gentlemen?”

Thor spoke. “An excellent solution, Lady, however His Highness would need to project some reason to the public for his sudden benevolence, otherwise, suspicions of weakness and desperation will abound. Something must be done so that it garners popular approval and admiration of their emperor.”

“I...hadn't thought of that,” Lenora sighed out slowly, honestly. This relational side of things had never been her forte.

A politician, particularly skilled at assessing public image, raised his hand to speak, and Loki nodded his consent for the man to do so. “Perhaps Lady Lenora could be useful in this way. Your Majesty is planning to wed the young lady, are you not? And to crown her empress.”

“I am,” said Loki, with a small proud grin.

“A public display such as this would be excellent for the morale and trust of the people. Stories about Lady Lenora abound in several kingdoms, noting her status as a refugee as “one of them” so to speak. They already know that her discovery of the Heksejotun predictions is what gave us the advantage we currently have. Wedding a woman from one of your own conquered nations, elevating her to empress in gratitude for her service to the empire, might give the people some more trust in the benevolent king identity you've been hoping to foster anyway. They would trust even more that you have their best interests at heart, if they believe she has your ear...and your heart.”

Thor shrugged, “It certainly worked with Asgard. Our trust and collaboration has greatly improved since Lenora's involvement as an adviser...No offense intended, Emperor.”

Loki rolled his eyes, but nodded to his smirking brother. “None taken, Prince. These are all rational points and I shall consider them. Thank you, gentlemen,” he looked to Lenora, “And lady. This meeting is adjourned.”

Once everyone had filed out except for Lenora, Loki, and Thor, the god of thunder noticed how both Lea and Loki's faces fell into looks of utter fatigue. He wondered what kind of hell they had been through yesterday after he parted with them, and he noticed how Lenora kept her rather too long tunic sleeves draped over her palms. He noticed how his usually sartorially demanding brother didn't even bother to cringe openly her choice of men's attire. In these situations, Thor had the rather odd advantage of being a good deal more perceptive and intelligent than anyone gave him credit for. He wasn't sure what exactly they had gone through, but he certainly knew the aftermath of a battle when he saw one.

“Well, darling,” Loki said, swanning up to Lea's side and giving her a tired but kind smile. “It looks like we have a wedding to plan.”

“I don't! Let the politicians plan it and I'll show up when and how they tell me to, saying the lines they give me. I don't care. We have a war to end. I don't want any more people to have to suffer becoming refugees,” she said coldly, but then she smiled wryly to both brothers. “Anything to make me wear those horrible dresses, huh?” Thor laughed loudly at that as he took his leave.

Loki leaned in closely to whisper smoothly into her ear and slide his arm around her waist. “On the contrary,” he said punctuating his sentence with a soft kiss to her cheek, “any reason to get you out of them afterwards.”

She didn't want to smile and blush at that, but she couldn't help it. That was his favorite smile from her; the one where she tried not to and couldn't help herself. Lenora had always been a good deal more utilitarian than romantic, but her betrothed was hopelessly romantic enough for the both of them. He looked forward to coaxing that smile from her for the rest of their lives together.

Happy STS!

“Your story gets told from someone else's perspective. Whose is it?“

Thank you @toribookworm22 for another awesome ask!

Goddess Dead is actually told from multiple, first-person perspectives (current secondary-narrators include Acon, Lea, and Octavius); however Eliott, the protagonist, is the primary narrator, and chapters from other characters’ perspectives are usually shorter and listed as .5 chapters. Moreover, as the story is “written” by Eliott, it’s been my idea that these different perspectives are just Eliott playing pretend.

However, it’s been really interesting to imagine how the book would change if either Acon, Lea, or Octavius was the primary narrator.

Goddess Dead from Acon’s perspective would be angry, lonely, and isolated where Eliott’s is hopeful. The core of Acon’s story, his self, is that he is a foil to Eliott. He is Eliott, if their life before the book had played out differently—if they had made different choices and drawn different cards. Under the right circumstances, Eliott could have been Acon, and Acon could have been Eliott. What separates them is, more often than not, the luck of the draw (though neither are particularly lucky). They are, in drive and passion, so similar it’s painful. It is their ideals, the lessons they’ve learned, the friends they’ve made, and how they carry their pasts into their present that differ. Overall, the story and its messages wouldn’t change so much as the tone. Imagine, if you will, a painting of a tulip—one sitting under a sunbeam, and one painted under the light of the moon.

I’m not sure how Goddess Dead told from Lea’s perspective would work, because—in a weird way—Lea and I are too similar for me to be completely comfortable writing in her shoes. (I’m not sure how this makes sense, but it does.) She’s very caring, controlled, and not so much grounded as level-headed—practical. She wouldn’t want to tell the story like Acon or Eliott. I think, with her as the narrator, the story would turn into a collection of letters or diary entries peppered with memories of her friends and loved ones. I imagine that the narrative would switch from primarily present-tense to past-tense.

If the story was told from Octavius’ perspective, it would be very abstract. He would tell Eliott’s story, but the details would be more fluid—more vague and sensory. As a living mote of magick, Octavius experiences the world differently than Eliott, Acon, and Lea. He isn’t a collection of thoughts; he’s a conversation between people. He is feelings not lessons. There would probably be a lot less dialogue; I’m almost imagining “Ping” by Samuel Beckett levels of “What the fuck is going on?” Octavius is just a lil’ guy who understands the cruelties and injustices of the world, the struggles that Eliott faces, but he’s not nearly as jaded; he describes the world around and within him with the same wonder and cadence of a toddler. Goddess Dead would probably be a lot more fun and have more illustrations, if Octavius wrote it.

ㅡ The W.T.L

𝘔𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘦.

Courage runs through Wil’s veins like a surging river, fueling his determination and pushing him beyond the boundaries of fear. With each step, a fire burns within him, igniting a spirit that propels him forward. Loneliness is merely a stepping stone on his path to tranquility.

𝘔𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘩𝘰��𝘥𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘦.

Amid the chaos, Travis remains unfazed, a beacon of serenity in a world of haste. His serene demeanor speaks volumes, conveying an inner peace transcending the external circumstances. Serenity fills the air around him, enveloping all fortunate enough to be in his presence.

𝘔𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵.

Lea’s kindness knows no bounds, and her compassion flows freely. Like a sunbeam breaking through the clouds, she has a way of brightening even the darkest days. With a smile that can light up the night sky, she brings a sense of lightness to any conversation or interaction.

(I was hit by inspiration and wrote this....)

“Scuse’ me.”

“Yes? Can I help you?”

“Ondran said that Lea said that Amble said you had sticky june bug sweets.” She handed over a scroll smudged with facepaint, “Can I trade you for some?”

“Of course you can!” Sabra laughed and pulled out a small bag of dried june bugs coated in toffee, “Here you go...!”

The Spiral beamed and immeadiately began crunching on it before scampering out the chamber, returning only to pop her head through the chamber door to thank her and scurrying away again.

What’s the festival without trying to take a chance and have a bit of fun?

“Here we are...” She whispered to herself.

The islet felt like a whispering place. A place didn’t demand quiet, but inspired it.

She pulled off the foliage gently with her claws, trying to mind the stone beneath.

- Tomb of the Moon Road Clan - Our Souls rest before their journey into the stars, carried on the Great Singer’s winds...

She didn’t feel heavy at all. Something had lifted from her chest, and the journey home would be the easiest it had ever been...

'The Windsinger and his brood spend weeks preparing for the Mistral Jamboree, writing messages, poems, nonsense, and including map fragments of the places they have traveled in the past year. The gathered Messengers’ scrolls used as festival currency are the fruits of those labors.'

(source)

It's the Mistral Jam so I just wanna mention one of my favourite bits of canon Wind lore - the Messengers' Scrolls are specifically made just for this event and they can have any sort of nonsense written or doodled on them xD

#fr #flight rising #lore #clan blackglass lore #idk should i post more shit like this?#i know its a bit hammy but it was fun to write

ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ NYOOMS IN hellooo i would really love to request a sokai fic with the lollipop prompt!! personal anecdote: lollipops were the first sweet i ever hand-made for valentine's day because i wanted them to last longer than chocolates, bahaha :D thank you so much for all your wonderful work!!! ♡

Hi, liesles! Thank you for waiting patiently for your request! I thought it would go really well with a prompt from @sokaiweek, “Be Mine,” so I hope you enjoy what I’ve come up with!

Sweet on You

“Ahh, it feels like forever since I’ve been to Twilight Town!” Kairi cried jubilantly as she ran down the forest path, eager to escape the woods where they’d hidden the Gummi ship and reach the town proper. She stopped to spin on her heel in the dirt, flashing Sora a brilliant smile. “Of course, the last time I was here, I was hiding from the Organization,” she joked, twirling a lock of her short auburn hair around her finger. Sora snorted at her cheekiness, amazed at her ability to reconcile with what was probably a pretty harrowing experience. But, that boundless optimism was one of the many things he appreciated about Kairi.

“Well, now we don’t have to worry about them,” he smiled back, leaves crunching under his feet as he followed after her. She waited for him to join her on the path, standing there with her hands clasped behind her back in that adorable way that never failed to make his heart flutter. He was glad to see that even after everything they’d been through, some things still hadn’t changed.

“So? What do you want to do while we’re in town?” he asked when he reached her, sliding his hands in his pockets. Kairi walked along beside him, a spring in her step.

“I want to visit Olette, Pence, and Hayner, of course! Oh— and Xion, Roxas, Isa, and Lea, too. I want to try those pretzels and sea salt they brag about so much!” she giggled. He loved her giggle, he realized dreamily. It was the sweetest of sounds, sweeter than even the bells of Scala ad Caelum ringing in the dawn blush light. “But you know,” she said suddenly, snapping him out of his daze, “I didn’t really get to enjoy the town much last time, since I was hiding away. Before we do that, can we explore a little bit, Sora?”

“Absolutely! Anything you want, Kairi!” he agreed immediately.

Ugh. He could hear Riku laughing now, calling him “whipped.” How was he supposed to refuse, though, when she was asking him so cutely with that excited shine in her eyes and that pretty smile on her lips? Saying no would be downright criminal!

Giggling with delight, she scampered down the path again towards the triangular gap in the brick wall that served as the entrance to the woods. Yeah, Sora reconciled with a soft smile as he watched her skirt swish around her thighs and her hair bounce around her shoulders. He was definitely whipped for Kairi. He’d always been, really. She was his light.

The sunlight enveloped them as they stepped out into the city, warm and welcoming. The tram was trundling by, rocking gently on the tracks with its metal gleaming in the sunset haze. Sora had always liked Twilight Town, not just because Roxas’ heart lay dormant inside of him. It reminded him a bit of Destiny Islands— the warm sun coating his skin, the breeze carrying the scent of trees, the atmosphere of peace and tranquility. He paused at the edge of the ledge to close his eyes and savor the sunbeams playing over his face. He cracked an eye open when he felt Kairi stand next to him.

“I can see why they love this place so much,” she hummed, observing the honeyed skyline with lidded eyes. “It really is beautiful…”

He could sense the “but” lingering on her tongue.

“But… It’s not home?” he guessed, and she looked at him with a wan smirk.

“Yeah. But it’s home to them, so I suppose that’s all that matters,” she shrugged, her look turning cheery, and he couldn’t help but grin. She always found the bright side of things— she always found the light. “But, you could definitely pick a worse home to have.”

“Yeah, that’s true.”

Kairi took another moment to scan the horizon, watching the golden light play across the oranges and browns of the buildings. Then she cocked her head to the side with a girlish laugh. Her smile was nearly blinding as she declared, “All right, enough sightseeing! I wanna go shopping!”

“Yes ma’am!” he said with a salute, and Kairi laughed again. Gosh, if he could only hear one sound for the rest of his life, it would be Kairi’s laugh, no question. Her giggles floated in the air as she hurried down the steps to the causeway. If Sora tried hard enough, he could see them floating around like bubbles, little iridescent, rainbow films of her beautiful laugh. He reached up to touch them, but they skipped just beyond the edges of his fingertips to float up, up, up into the honey-colored sky and red-tinged clouds. That was okay, though, because there were always more where that came from.

“You know, I’m surprised to see so much green here,” Kairi commented as she looked at all the small planters and flower boxes adorning the city. They perched on windowsills, rested on tables, sat on porch steps, or were positioned along the sidewalk. Flowers, ferns, herbs— everything and more could be found in the myriad of little pots littering the city streets, and their bright green fronds and stalks almost glowed against the background of autumn colors. “It really does make everything a little bit homier,” she hummed in contentment.

“Yeah, and gives Little Chef a lot of ingredients to gather!” he added with a bright grin.

“Oh, right, of course. That’s very important!” she giggled, prompting Sora to raise an eyebrow challengingly.

“What? Are you making fun of me?”

“No, it’s just nice to see that your love for food hasn’t changed,” she chuckled. “You either think with your heart or your stomach!”

Sora opened his mouth to object, then closed it because it was true. It still felt like he was being made fun of, but darn it, she just looked too cute with that teasing smirk and the tip of her tongue sticking out between her teeth! Oh, he was whipped all right, more than Little Chef’s best frosting. He looked out to the road, and a smile played over his lips as he considered just how much Kairi had him wrapped around her finger.

It was then that he spied something resting beside the main shopping complex, and he started thinking with his stomach again.

“Speaking of love for food…”

A cute little cart was parked beside the complex. Pink and white heart-shaped balloons that were tied to the handle bobbed in the breeze, their metallic surfaces gleaming. Red, white, and pink streamers adorned the white cart’s side, and inside, an assortment of candies rested on a soft bed of baby-pink faux grass. Sora’s mouth began to salivate immediately upon clapping eyes on it, and Kairi laughed at him. For the first time that day, he was too absorbed in the promise of sweets to fixate on how much he loved her laugh.

“What’s this? This is new!” he exclaimed as he pranced up to it. The young woman chuckled at his excited approach, flicking her bangs out of her face and primly resting her hands against her chocolate-smeared apron.

“Hi there! This is a special promotion that the local chocolatier is doing for Valentine’s Day.”

“Valentine’s Day?” he echoed. Was it really February? Time sure flew when you were running around saving the world.

“What’s the promotion?” Kairi asked, peering around his shoulder to admire the assortment of candied goods nestled in the plastic stringy faux grass.

“We’re giving away free samples today!” the attendant chirped. “Please, pick whatever you like— for yourself, for someone special.” She gave Sora a playful wink, which made his cheeks turn as pink as the decorations on the cart.

Thankfully, Kairi had become too engrossed in the heart-shaped cake pops to catch the candy seller’s jibe. After carefully studying one for a moment, she plucked it out of the display and promptly took a chomp out of it. She hummed exultantly as she chewed the red velvet and red icing, then opened her eyes to smile at the attendant.

“This is delicious! Oh, we should bring everyone something, don’t you think, Sora?”

“Totally, as long as the attendant doesn’t mind. We don’t want to run off with all her stock.”

“Please do!” she smiled pleasantly. “We want everyone to be able to enjoy these sweet treats. All I ask is that you check out the chocolatier sometime soon to look at our complete stock!”

After promising to follow through, Kairi and Sora began picking out free samples to bring to their friends. They tried to choose a variety while still choosing things they thought they would each enjoy. While Kairi was debating between a mini strawberry shortcake and a chocolate eclair, Sora discreetly stowed a wrapped heart-shaped lollipop in his shorts pocket.

Of course, it didn’t go unnoticed by the candy attendant.

Someone special? She mouthed with a smirk playing over her lips. With a sidelong glance at Kairi that melted into a loving smile, he nodded. Someone special, indeed.

After making their decisions, Sora and Kairi headed off to rendezvous with their friends. They were delighted to find the treats well-received (though comments of pretzels and sea salt ice cream were made… and comments turned into procuration, but Sora was never going to complain about more food!). They watched the sunset from the clock tower, all of them squashed together on the ledge so tightly that poor Pence almost fell off, but it worked out all right and they had a good laugh about it.

Just as the last red rays of the setting sun were spearing across the sky in their last goodbye, they said their farewells and headed back to the Gummi ship. Kairi pranced along the path, cooing at the fireflies flitting through the trees and underbrush to fill the gloomy forest with an earthy green glow. It was a town of sunset and greenery, two things so at odds with each other yet complimented one another so well here. And at the center of all that beautiful color was Kairi.

She danced in a circle, laughing jubilantly as she whirled her arms around to scatter the fireflies like a thousand leaves. Her hair flowed around her face like an autumn breeze, and her skirt swished around her legs like florets on the wind. The green flickering lights and puddles of moonlight illuminated her form, and in that moment, she looked like an angel descended to earth.

“I love you,” he whispered in reverence. He found his throat closed up with emotion, but he kept going in his head. I love you. I love you so much it hurts. I can’t imagine life without you, because I love you, I love you, I love you, and I always have. He wasn’t sure when he started crying, but Kairi saw them gleaming in the moonlight, and that’s when she stopped dancing to look at him in concern.

“Sora? Sora, what’s wrong?” she gasped and ran up to him. He just looked down at her while she raised her hands to his cheeks, sweeping away his tears with soft, gentle brushes of her thumbs. “Talk to me,” she whispered, oh-so-sweetly that his heart broke with happiness.

“Kairi… There was something from the candy cart that I didn’t share with anyone else,” he whispered, his voice hoarse with emotion. She knitted her eyebrows together in confusion as he procured the lollipop from his pocket and held it out to her. She looked up at him, then down at the lollipop. She took it, turning it over to peer through the plastic film at the simple words etched in white icing on the front of the pink lollipop.

BE MINE.

“Sora…” she murmured, looking up at him. He smiled sweetly even through the tears that still spilled from his eyes. She looked beautiful even in the way she kaleidoscoped in his watery vision. He reached up to cup her face in his hands, and he marveled at the way her cheeks nestled so perfectly against his palms, like they were made to be held by him and only him. Her eyelashes fluttered as she stared up at him in bewilderment, surprise, and hope.

“I love you,” he whispered again, but so she could hear this time. “I love you, Kairi. You are the light of my life, you know that?”

“Yeah,” she said, her voice breaking as her own tears broke through the dam to flow down her face. They beaded against his palms, roughened by his years of wielding the Keyblade, but still soft enough for her to cuddle into his touch. “You’re the light of my life, too. I’m yours, Sora, I always have been.”

He smiled at that, a broken smile because his mouth just simply couldn’t display the sheer amount of joy welling up inside of him. He petted her cheeks, wiping away her tears as she hiccuped sobby little giggles that just made her cheeks warm with embarrassment. He leaned forward to press his forehead to hers, unable to stop himself from whispering, “You’re so cute.”

“Stop… You’re gonna embarrass me,” she complained, even though she laughed.

“I can’t help myself. You are.”

“Can… Can you just… Can you kiss me already, please?” she sniffed, her cheeks shining like pink opals in the moonlight.

How could he ever refuse, especially whipped for her as he was?

He immediately rushed in to do as she said, but he let his zeal get the best of him, because his nose collided with hers. Nervous apologies tumbled from his mouth but Kairi just giggled and guided his face back down, nosing his cheek to prompt him to try again. He took it slower this time, easing himself in to experimentally brush his lips over hers. Kairi waited for her to find his rhythm, but he could feel her excitement in the way her mouth trembled. After a few tentative pecks, he smoothed his lips over hers in a full, sweet, passionate kiss, and she melted against him.

Forget the candy cart— Kairi’s lips were the sweetest thing he would ever taste, period.

He kissed her again, and again, and again, until Kairi was fleeing his advances with giddy, bubbly laughter. His lips still fluttered over the places he could reach— her cheeks, her nose, her forehead, her jawline, even her eyelids. He was just drowning in love and he didn’t know how else to get it out besides showering her in affection.

“Sora,” she insisted as she ran from his lips again, and this time, he just pouted at her. She placated him with a little peck to his pursed lips, which did make him feel a little better. “We have all the time in the world now,” she reminded him with a sweet smile. “I would like to go home at some point.”

Right. Home— the home he shared with his friends, with his family, with Kairi. He pulled away to link his hand with hers, while she peeled the plastic off the lollipop to pop it into her mouth. The BE MINE flashed in the moonlight, making Sora’s heart swell with adoration. Kairi didn’t mean for it to be a question, but he answered it in his heart anyway.

Always, Kairi. Always and forever.

So some of you may be trying not to remember that I did a silly, cingey playthrough that I called Sou Doki Doki!, where I was playing Doki Doki Literature Club and named the MC after Sou Hiyori, then for the rest of the VN acted out as Sou. It wasn’t very good.

But anyway.

During Act 2 of the VN I had also wrote a poem and uploaded it into three parts (mostly because the poem ended up being a lot longer than I had originally intended). But I had also encrypted the poems in different codes (Base64, Binary ... I think the last was UCode or something?), because that was gimmick DDLC also did with some of their easter eggs - hide extra poems or additional content through encryption.

After some thought, I’ve finally decided to upload all three parts in normal text for anyone who was curious about what was going on with those poems. I will admit it’s not that great, but I worked really hard on the poem so I’m satisfied with how it came out.

*skateboards out*

The Man with the Glass Smile

Part 1

Today I was invited to a game

When I arrived, there were only

Two holes

They fit perfectly for my eyes

They must have been made

For me

They said

“Look inside me”

So I peered inside

Not all things can be ignored

Inside were rivers

All rushing and struggling

To move forward

To steer their own course

Fleeing nonsensically,

A world full of tangled possibilities

But all rivers lead to

The bottomless ocean

You can’t change nature

You can’t change the threads of fate

I stumbled back

The two holes said,

“I’m sorry

Did you think that all life

Was equal in this game?

You are all nothing but

Numbers on a page

And you and I

Are the most insignificant

Of them all”

I fell to my knees

tried to scream

But

I was choking

A million beats

threatening to erupt from

my throat

Tiny frogs

trying to swim up

a waterfall

Something was dribbling

from my lips

I covered my mouth

But soon it was lea

king

from the cracks of my pale fingers

Excreting from my body

was ink and glass

It splattered over

the floor below me

A black, cracked pond that reflected

Nothing

Least of all myself

The pond grew tall

Morphed and twitched into

A figure

He had a smile made of glass

He was someone I should know

A memory shoved in the back

Or a piece of my soul I barely knew

The man with the glass smile said

“I’m sorry

You should never have been sent

To the front lines

I am not your savior

I will be the one

To walk out of this game

For you

All you have to do

Is stay inside”

I wish I could I say

I refused countless times

It’s hard to remain crystal clear

When the mind is

crac k ing

I rested my head down on his shoulders

Held him like a tired child

He carried me in his arms

Ink stained my skin

Shards pricked my flesh

There is no flawless future

So I buried myself

In the ink and shards

We held each other close

We conducted our discordant lullaby

“We/I can(‘t) keep the pieces together

We/I can(‘t) keep the pieces together

We/I can(‘t) keep the pieces together”

I close my eyes

I will sleep

Until the poem is finished…

Part 2

…but I couldn’t sleep

There were voices

From outside

It was so cramped here

It was made for me after all

Is survival supposed to feel so

Lonely?

I saw two holes along the walls

They fit perfectly for my eyes

My isolation enticed me to peek

Not all things will be ignored

Outside there were eyes

They were upset about something

Seething, glaring, squinting

Their pupils dilating with hunger

For demise

My demise

They drew in close

They said,

“Soon

Soon

Soon it will be

Your turn to die

Soon”

Distressed, I looked down at

Myself

But I was no longer mine

I belonged to the man with the glass smile

That was the deal

With my mouth

We bared cracked grins

With my voice,

We crafted lies to conceal me

With my hands

We passed the skull to another

With their lives,

We moved forward

With his way,

My hands are crimson

It hurts

Is this really survival?

I pleaded

“It wasn’t me!

I’m sorry, it wasn’t me!”

But my mouth

Wasn’t mine anymore

The man with the glass smile

Stroked my cheek with jagged hands

Wet with inky tears

He said,

“I’m sorry

Did you think this was going to be easy?

We’re only doing this

Because you can’t

They’re only numbers on a page

All frantically adding and subtracting each other

Are you really weeping for numbers?

Don’t forget

Yours the most insignificant

Of them all”

He drew me away from the holes

We whispered out lullaby

“We/I can(‘t) keep the pieces together

We/I can(‘t) keep the pieces together

We/I can(‘t) keep the pieces together”

Inside I tried to sleep

The poem will be over soon.

But I couldn’t think about verses

Only numbers

They’re just supposed to be numbers

Why does it hurt

When one is taken out of the equation?

It doesn’t matter

How many times it gets better

1000 x 0 = 0

All rivers lead to the bottomless ocean

The voices our louder

Swarming, twisting, writhing,

I can’t breath

Has anyone drowned in sound before?

This can’t be survival

I need to get out

So I start scratching

Fingernails rakING violently around me

A revolting

cac

PHO

Of voices and s////cr\\\\a////tche\\\\s

Soon my nails are stuffed with pulp

Like a FATTENED cherry pie

I keep s////cr\\\\atchi////ng\\\\

I//// ke\\\\ep sc////rat\\\\ching

S ////c r A \\\\ t C H I n //// g gggggggggggg \\\\

The man with the glass smile

Peels me away from the walls

Shards pierce my skull

Ink stinging my cuts

He said

“I’m sorry

But you knew

You could never survive this game

That’s why I’m at the front lines

There are no saviors

There are no heroes

There is only surviving

You can’t really die on the inside”

We struggled

We scrEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEamed

at each other

“We/I CAN(‘t) keep the pieces together!

We/I can(‘T) keep the pieces together!

We/I CAN(‘t) keep the pieces together!

We/I can(‘T) KEEP THE PIECES TOGETHER!”

He went back outside

I kept sc////rat\\\\c////hin\\\\g inside

This is not survival

I want this poem to end

I hate how it’s coming out

I keep scr////at\\\\c////hi\\\\ng …

Part 3

…but it was all meaningless

I always knew

If there really was no chance

Then I wish I was taken out of the equation

Before I put together a glass smile

There were two holes

They fit perfectly for my eyes

I crawled towards them

And took another peek

There are some things you won’t ignore

Outside there were eyes

They were upset about something

Seething, glaring, squinting

All hungry for demise

My demise

I’m sorry

In the distance

There was a silhouette

Faint as a ghost

They fluttered towards me

Softly

A cherry blossom in the wind

Their little hands poked through the holes

I held them by their fingertips

Tried not to stain them with ink

(Or was it blood?

I can’t tell anymore

It all looks the same now)

They didn’t seem to mind

I forgot what gentleness felt like

Behind me

A cacophony of voices and scratches

In front of me

The hushing breath

Of a meadow’s breeze

They swept away

The madness of sound

I forgot what tenderness sounded like

Did you ever think

That a ghost would bring life?

I forgot what that was

I wasn’t living

I was simply not dying

I always had my head down

Trying to keep the pieces together

I was always struggling

To remain afloat in the rushing river

With one faint touch

I looked up and remembered

To bathed in the sunbeams

With one faint touch

I felt a little more grounded

And finally touched the sky

The air felt so clean and clear

I breathed again.

They asked me

“Have you ever met someone

Who became a ghost before they died?

I am a ghost for someone I lost

Just like you

Who you lost, I don’t know

You and I are simply flickering in life

Maybe I can save you

What little light I have left

I want you to have

So you may be your own light again

If I have to fade

I’m ready for that”

They let go

They fluttered away

But not to join the wind

A cherry blossom adrift

On the ocean’s surface

Ready to sink

Did you keep my head up

So I could watch you go

And never come back?

The man with the glass smile asked,

“Are you really weeping for numbers?

It’s just another subtraction

That’s how the game goes

Remember

You’re the most insignificant

Of them all

Subtracting you won’t save anyone”

Enough

My fingers flew up

Smashed the glass smile

From my face

I reached out

I already lost myself

Please!

Don’t let me lose them too!

Please!

But the two holes were too small

So I start scratching again

Dug my nails along the edges of the holes

Spread them open

I leap out

All rivers lead to the bottomless ocean

I reach out

With the last of my strength

I held up the flickering ghost

With my last breath

I blew them back into the wind

And they fluttered away once more

There are saviors here

But that savior wasn’t me

Under the surface of the ocean

I gazed up towards the reflection

Of the man who once had a glass smile

I said,

“I’m not sorry

I can’t live being made of glass

You and I

Could never keep the pieces together

Instead you just picked off

the shards from my broken body

Laid them down

For someone to bleed on

How can I walk out of this game

If you keep taking me apart

And leave me behind?

The person I lost was me

You were never really surviving

Just writing a long-winded poem

Hoping you would never have to

Finish it”

The final word

Was mine

I’m reaching the end of this poem

I never felt so happy

I sunk into the cradle of the ocean

Silence never sounded so beautiful

I smile

I sink

I live
