Wait I wanna know which warrior songs you've associated with the life series and why

@in-the-abyss

aaalright so i only know of blixemi ones but here we go :> it's not all of them but it's the ones i have stronger associations for

(quick warning that this post isn't super plain text friendly, i don't have the spoons for it right now, sorry)

shared eyes

this one fits martyn so well i think

here's some specifics - i'll highlight some eyesandearsy things as well :>

i'm not who you think i am, if you think of me at all

i wish your silence came from hate then at least i'd know why i'm to blame but a fool i'd stay to pray within a drought to drown in the rain

it seems to me that i have always been the problem though i'd wish to solve it, foolishly, i've gone and charred each star that's fallen

i'm not who i think i am when you think you've seen it all in this frozen state of apathy i've blossomed with every flaw

what good is it to even try? you'll never hear or see or face all the parts of you you despise come to life, standing right fore your eyes in spite reminding both of us have wished on a starless night

you can try as you might you can lie, fantasize but we both see your eyes your eyes in mine

and these ones fit limited life so well ↓

this feels wrong… it's not playing out right. how am i colder now, upon a bridge i chose to ignite? am i all wrong? it doesn't feel like it should this hollow triumph doesn't fill the pain i thought it would… i've spent so long why do i pity you now? you've yet to change, so in your place, i've learned to torture myself

like. AAA

and he runs

this one kinda fits double life cleo, i think? and martyn by proxy. it's a biiit of a stretch in places though

off you go inside your mind again your legs must shake from the memories you chase round your head i beg you no, but there you go, to find a version of you that's dead

your body's here, but it is clear you're always searching for what you cannot find

gives vibes of martyn missing ren kinda. even though that doesn't exactly involve cleo

i'm not fine

jimmy probably, canary curse?

i'm a wreck, i'm in a downward spin and i don't know what it feels like to win but they tell me, "just gotta put in the work, you'll be fine!" and they tell me, "everyone falls down, time to time"

i'll be the best they've ever seen! you'll fall, you'll trip, you'll make a scene. …it'll take some work to get to where i need to go..! they're better off without you, you know? oh…

and though i try, and though i reach for the sky there's this voice that's getting louder in the back of my mind saying i'm not fine it's screaming at me saying i'm not fine!

and they tell me it's alright everyone takes their own time but my time is moving backwards i don't think i'll get it right cause i'm losing my own battles cannot find the will or might cause the little voice that's s'posed to cheer me on is the one i have to fight!

just one heartbeat

i don't have anything really specific for this one, but it definitely feels watchery

you've been trapped in your mind, your doubts tucked down below but it's okay to be afraid! i'll show you all that i know all i need is a heartbeat—just a breath, and i'm through i can open up your world, i do this all for you

just when i thought i'd won, one stunt left me undone and my fate has plunged and spun into the paws of someone who is eager to believe her destiny's a high achiever so i'll reach her, and i'll teach her, and eventually deceive her but she can see that i lack her beliefs but if she gives me just one heartbeat, their defeat is in reach she is wrapped in her deceit, soon my task will be complete they'll be banished to a blackout; endless shadows i'll release

but i can see they don't trust so easily so let me share a breath of time trapped within my memories there's a group of three who plead—they're so blinded by their greed!— —who will make all of my work compose completely seamlessly!

bold sol's an old soul, i desire full control old sol's bold soul's goal's to envoke revolt your prophecy's my bait, and soon i will dictate all the choices of the voices who're around this lake

you stand faced here before my truth, yet you continue to hide you need me more now than ever! i'm an escape for all your lies! i see darkness in your heartbeat! this clan life you will lose! you have opened up his world, his blood was spilt on you.

one not two

mean gills. scott. mean gills scott and the limited life finale

storm, it was you and i, side by side, since our mother had died back then we had no one else, just ourselves, no one was left in our defense we had each other, there was no better brother you were my best friend until it was my end

we walked through hell together, we weathered every weather the stormy wind carried along my weary withered feathers would i rewind and change my mind, and leave it all behind? not on your life

we came into the world in a whirl split by our blood and our loyalties we walked upon a line, you and i, plagued by floods of brutality

i can feel my heartbeat racing, i don't know if this is my place and yet i feel inside, i must die for you to survive—my brother, i i love you so, more than you know, it's time to go but you won't ever be alone

if i could rewind and change my mind, and do it all again with all the answers ahead of me, and knew how it would all end would i make the same choice? like, before i knew? that our destinies were tied to each other? it was me and you—one not two, one not two

if i could rewind and change my mind, and do it all again with all the answers ahead of me, and knew how it would all end i know i'd make the same choice, and now i know it's true that our destinies were tied, i would die for you

shifting roots

technically not a warrior cats song anymore but its on the list oops

anyway. just, life series in general actually

all that's familiar to you suddenly feels strange the calm and steady now marked with scars you can't explain the friendly faces now have faded into foes it went unnoticed—now it's all you seem to know

one breath, the world's turned backwards two blinks, nothing's the same memories are frayed and fractured can you hold to what remains?

the hunt becomes the hunted haunted days and sleepless eyes what you knew cannot be trusted buried truths uproot tonight

your history cracks and crumbles like stones beneath the sea no time for falls or fumbles, must go and take the leap move quick, don't lose your balance; don't sway or look behind below you creeps greed and malice; you cannot stop your climb

and you'll bend, and you'll break, and you'll burn as the ground claws you down to the dirt

and you'll love, and you'll lose, and you'll learn while your prayers and despairs go unanswered

everybody's got a secret to hide keep it close, keep it locked inside but, though they try, it'll find the light something lurks, something's coming to life

sink away

scott in the limited life finale again

we're barely floating now, we can't keep up this pace something must sink away for you, i'd sink away

we've clawed so desperately for a future out of reach to keep our heads above the truth beneath our feet i know we're only now prolonging what awaits love shapes a heartless fate for you, i'll sink away

in this pain, an island stands with warm and white inviting sands i wish that, somehow, i could reach this place but the more i swim, the more i see i simply just can never be living all the dreams i planned to make still, i'll fall unafraid so you don't sink away

hope lifts my weighted mind, and though my heart will break love's left within my wake that cannot sink away

in this pain, an island rests where all i loved are safely kept somehow, i've found myself here in its place and the more i see, the less i grieve—i fade away so you can be living all the dreams you planned to make and you'll live unafraid i know you'll be okay for you, i'd sink

walk without the stars

last life martyn and the watchers. just. yeah

i'm torn by two sides, stuck with my paws tied do i embrace my pride and ally with the dark side? or do i rewind; turn heel, and decide to do what is right, beside my bloodline? but can i change it, explain it? put on a front and contain it? or is it probable my soul's already tainted? do i belong in the dark? my actions have made me marked to continually march with those who walk without the stars

i was in their plans, that i'll stand strongly up against my clan but something changed, pulled me away, left me dismayed… how could i be so blind and turn my eye to their demise? i closed my heart, clan torn apart, cause i walked without the stars walked without the stars

you and i had plans that we would stand up strongly for our clan but something changed, pushed me away, left me estranged… how could you be so blind and turn your eye to my decline? what once was ours has turned to scars, as i walk without the— i was in their plans, that i'll stand strongly up against my clan but something changed, pulled me away, left me dismayed… how could i be so blind and turn my eye to their demise? i closed my heart, clan torn apart, cause i walked without the stars

way to you

martyn missing ren in limited life especially. maybe also flower husbands after jimmy dies?

i don't know the way to you you can't be gone, i just won't say it's true my world won't change, i won't be broken down for you're not lost, you're just not yet found

the path is broken, and it's incomplete i trip and stumble, i can hardly breathe so many choices, but no clarity so many voices, but no melody

i am broken, and it's hard to breathe without you here, i feel so incomplete there's no more choices and no melodies with you gone, i've lost a piece of me

in the blink of an eye, everything's washed away it takes no more than just a breath for everything to change and nothing's right, and it feels like i've lost the way but i feel changes—something's telling me i'll be okay

my family is not made of humans.

i was born in a severely abusive enviroment, where all i knew was fear and violence. everyday i would wake up terrified that it'd be another day that i'd feel physical and emotional pain, caused by the ones who should be loving and protecting me the most. they seemed to enjoy to take all of their frustrations out on me and my sister, and beat us up until we could no longer move. they'd humiliate us, threaten us and destroy our sense of security so we could no longer ask for help. not that i'd make a difference - everytime we did ask for help, adults around us would ignore or stay silent.

i don't have a family. my mother is a narcisistic, violent and delusional woman who only sees me a source of money and nothing else. my father is completely absent, as he always was (except when he was beating us up), and thinks sending me a "good morning" text everyday can make it up for what he did. my sister... i think she loves me. sometimes she hates me too. i suppose i'm her walking reminder that she was an abuse survivor, and that's all she wants to avoid so she can start over. i get it.

my friends are lovely. they're almost like family to me, except they don't understand how it's like to have no one else. it seems unfair; to look at them like they're my last hope, and to know that they don't understand the feeling, because they have loving mothes, sisters and relatives alike. they have support - i do not. i think that's what hurts me the most, at the end of the day. they don't know how it's like to be alone. and if they don't, they will never understand this giant hole inside my chest.

my partner is a two-sided coin. seeing from one perspective, he loves me, cares about me, protects me and tries his best. but from the other, he's negligent. he doesn't understand that his past makes me insecure, afraid, sad and miserable. if he could just start affirming me everyday how much all of this does not matter and that i'm his one and only, that i'm the one that truly matters, i'd be happy. but he doesn't; he barely gives me affection when i'm depressed. he just lets me be. i suppose if i had killed myself this morning when i took my keys and left without a single positive thought in my head, he would take some good few hours to even notice. he'd be asleep. that's why it's so hard for me to trust him; i have to tell him every single think i need, all the time. i'm tired.

so looking at the bigger picture and making it simple, i'm all alone in this world. i've got no one. no human being can understand this pain of being completely left behind by everyone around me. no one understands the excruciating horror of existing without human warmth and support. no one can feel what i feel, and they never will. and that's the reason sometimes - actually, all the time - i think about ending it all. just putting an end to it, forever. this thought actually brings me peace. i wish i could have peace. and when i finally rest, i'm sure i'll have it.

but then, there's them. my only light in this world. my reason to exist. my will to keep going. my animals. god, i love them. i really do.

how can i possibly begin to explain how much i love these small, unique, kind and pure beings? they're everything i have in this life. it's funny how they're not the ones who chose to be adopted by us, and yet they're happy to be around and feel extremely grateful to be by your side. these little fellas can change your whole day with a single "meow", and make it all worth it.

all of them mean so much to me. their lives, their health, their happiness, their little hearts. when i have them around me, i feel like i have a purpose: giving love and taking care of them. it makes that chronical hole a little smaller, and it warms my chest up from the inside. i don't know, it's like they have this spark of life in them that lits me up whenever i want to end this existence for once and all.

they did not chose to live with me, but they chose to love me, and they still choose it everyday. they choose to be happy around me. to make me smile. to take care of me when i cry, and to sleep by my side when i'm hopeless. they also choose to be tricky assholes sometimes, but isn't it part of the fun of having these little fellas? i love them even when they're bothering me.

when my mom beat me up, i cried to my dogs. when i felt desperate and alone, i cried to cindy. when i tried to kill myself, napo was there, staring at me like he didn't want to see my crying and cutting my legs while taking random meds. when my ex made me so insanely desperate to end my life that i couldn't move out of the bed, cheetah and ciel were there. ciel was with me everyday after my traumatic breakup, until he could no longer be. when the pain of still living with my abuser - my own mother - hit me like a truck, kiri licked my tears off my face. when i wanted to have fun in the middle of this chaotic and painful life, blue made me smile being silly. and now, when i want to get this goddamn rope i bought for them and hang myself in the balcony, adônis quietly sits on my legs and sleeps like an angel. cheetah watches me carefully too.

whoever you are, if you're reading this, can you understand me? they're the only family i have. they're all i got. i have no one, i never had. everyone left. no one understands. no one can even imagine how it feels to have the unique experience of being completely alone and helpless in a huge, cruel world. and they never will, and this world will never forgive me for being like this. for being born wrong, broken beyond repair. no one will stand by me.

but they will.

Midnights Lyrics That Alter My Brain Chemistry

Lavender Haze:

"i'm damned if i do give a damn what people say" "i just need this love spiral" "i find it dizzying"

Maroon:

"the rust that grew between telephones" "the lips i used to call home" "how the hell did we lose sight of us again?" "sobbing with your head in your hands, ain't that the way shit always ends?" "you were standing hollow-eyed in the hallway" "i feel you no matter what" "and i wake with your memory over me" "that's a real fucking legacy to leave"

Anti-Hero:

"when my depression works the graveyard shift all of the people i've ghosted stand there in the room" "one day i'll watch as you're leaving" "i should not be left to my own devices" "i'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror"

Snow On The Beach:

"life is emotionally abusive" "and time can't stop me quite like you did" "i'm unglued, thanks to you" "you wanting me tonight feels impossible" "and its fine to fake it til you make it til you do, til its true" "can this be a real thing, can it?"

You're On Your Own, Kid:

"i search the party of better bodies just to learn that you never cared" "i wait patiently, he's gonna notice me" "i picked the petals he loves me not" "i'll run away" "everything you lose is a step you take" "you've got no reason to be afraid"

Midnight Rain:

"he wanted it comfortable i wanted that pain" "my town was a wasteland" "i broke his heart cause he was nice" "all the love we unraveled, and the life i gave away" "i guess sometimes we all get just what we wanted" "and he never thinks of me" "i guess sometimes we all get some kind of haunted" "and i never think of him, except on midnights like this"

Question...?

"i swear that it was something" "cause i don't remember who i was before you painted all my nights a color i've searched for since" "did you wish you put up more of a fight?" "do you wish that you could still touch her?" "did you realize out of time?" "got swept away in the grey"

Vigilante Shit:

"you did some bad things but i'm the worst of them" "don't get sad, get even" "the lady simply had enough"

Bejeweled:

"didn't notice you walking all over my peace of mind" "putting someone first only works when you're in their top five" "i can still make the whole place shimmer" "and i miss you, but i miss sparkling" "don't put me in the basement when i want the penthouse of your heart" "sadness became my own sky"

Labyrinth:

"i'll be getting over you my whole life" "never trust it if it rises fast, it can't last" "oh no, i'm falling in love again" "lost in the labyrinth of my mind" "you know how much i hate that everybody just expects me to bounce back, just like that"

Karma:

"addicted to betrayal" "you're terrified to look down" "ask me what i earned from all those tears"

Sweet Nothing:

"everyone's up to something" "i find myself running home to your sweet nothings" "all that you ever wanted from me was sweet nothing" "i'm just too soft for all of it"

Mastermind:

"what if i told you none of it was accidental?" "cause we were born to be the pawn in every lovers game" "if you fail to plan you plan to fail" "i've been scheming like a criminal ever since to make them love me and make it seem effortless" "i'm only cryptic and machiavellian cause i care"

Protector

In the first world, he was her protector. In the world of magic, he became her teacher. Emma (16) feels she doesn't belong in a school for fairies. No one understands her, everyone thinks she is a monster. They believe she sacrificed her parents' lives to save hers. Except the man who saved her life. He's the only one she trusts. She knows that what she feels for him will never be reciprocated, but she can't suppress her feelings. New challenges enter her life. She can control her abilities, but will her abilities control her? Are they right in thinking that sooner or later she will serve the darkness? What will happen when she is put to her toughest test? Will she make it through her first year at the school for fairies? Will she manage to survive the toughest battle yet to come. Deep in the darkness, far from the light that is him to her. Her beloved protector.

Emma

I don’t want to stay here. I don’t belong here. My place is in the first world. I’m trapped here in the worst of fantasies.

They don’t understand me. No one understands how I feel. Except him.

„Hello, Emma.“

When he sat down on the bench next to me. I felt like I am safe. Just like when he protected me in the first world. He saved my life. I will never forget.

I looked up to him. Slowly.

„How are you, Mr. Silva?“

„I’m worried about you, Emma.“

„I’m fine.“ I said quietly.

Another lie. Spoken so lightly it surprised me.

„You’re isolating yourself, skipping meals. It won’t go on like this.“

"Excuse me, Mr. Silva, but I don't want to talk about it."

I crossed my arms over my chest. I could feel his gaze on me. Those blue eyes of his wouldn't leave my mind.

No matter how hard I tried. The moment he'd gotten me out of the Burned's hands I'd faced a new trap. Far worse than the terrifying grip I'd faced before. Here in Alfey, he is no longer my protector. He's a teacher, and I'm a student. Nothing in between exists.

"Try to do it, if only for my sake."

"It's pointless. No one's going to do anything about it. Not even you."

"I disagree. And you know very well that I'm not going to give up easily, Emma."

"I wish you the best of luck. You won't have it as easy with me as you might think right now."

His hand moved closer to mine. In one agonizing moment with me, I thought he was going to touch me. Inside, I shivered with anticipation. And a new pain. I felt a thirst that would never be filled.

"It doesn't matter. I told you before, I'm here if you need anything. Nothing has changed that."

"Only you think that."

Everything changed when I found out what his position at the school was and what mine would be.

"I'm going to show you a different side of Alfea this weekend."

"What do you mean?"

What he said caught my attention against my will. I looked into his eyes again, losing myself in them again.

"I've asked Farah to release you from school for this weekend. I'd like you to spend this weekend with us."

"Sky's okay with that?"

I doubted it a little. He wasn't that distant with me but I didn't know what he really thought of me.

I was afraid he shared what I was hearing from all sides.

"Why should it?"

"I don't know, I just..."

"Emma, tell me what's wrong, please."

"The fairies think I'm a monster. I don't know what the Specialists think, but they're avoiding me as much as they are. After I summoned the magic in the circle, they think bad things about me."

I put up a defensive wall around myself so I wouldn't be seen or heard, I didn't want to cause trouble for anyone, much less the one person who accepted me for who I was.

"When they get to know you better, they'll understand that things aren't as they might first appear. All I care about is whether you agree with my proposal?"

I wanted to believe that, but I was afraid it wouldn't be enough. Not this time. I was tired, more tired than ever, and I couldn't forget.

No one is like me. I'm torn between light and darkness. I am a fairy of light, but in my light there is also darkness. It's as if they're joined together as one. The burned ones wanted to absorb that power into themselves. It drew them all the way to the First World. It was only my fault, I was the beacon that brought them to the portal.

My parents died because of me. They were murdered. And I couldn't do anything about it. It all happened because of the magic I carry inside me. A magic that's more of a burden than a true gift. It's a burden that hasn't allowed me to breathe freely.

"I accept your invitation, Mr. Silva."

I couldn't refuse him. Maybe he was right, maybe it would help me to get out of here and into a different environment, if only for a little while.

I've known that I'm a sex addict, and today I've discovered that I have a Fearful-Avoidant attachment style, and it explained a lot to me. I always knew that I'd never given myself the proper time to grieve and move on from my past relationships; always avoiding the thought and idea of them instead of dealing with my feelings. And there have been multiple times in the past where I ran back to what caused me pain and even destroyed the relationships around me in doing so, and I never truly understood why I did it. And I also understood that I had a problem when it came to porn, but I always justified it to myself, and I soon discovered it was a good way to help cope with the pain I felt after my fearful justification for ruining an intimate relationship faded and I began to feel the pain from what I'd done. And it even became the justification for ending a relationship at one point...and I never truly understood why I always find myself almost going out of my way to do things I know would destroy the relationship just as a comfort, even when the relationship I was in had given me no inkling that it was insecure. The entire time it was just me who was insecure and wanting to be comforted but unable to trust anyone, even myself, with the task of giving myself that comfort that this lonely child in me needs so badly. I didn't trust myself to be honest with myself after seeing how I'd give into my addiction even after I'd learned what it was, just because it brought me a form of temporary comfort that I wasn't feeling and never knew that I'd have to learn to develop myself. And thus I expected myself to lie to everyone because I felt I was so good at lying to myself, and became a liar on top of a cheater and made the entire overlapping problem multiply underneath itself. And as I became more convinced of my own lack of worth and sunk deeper into my addiction it became easier and easier to push people away while I searched for that "true connection" that I refused to let myself have. But after acknowledging what I was I tried to resist the addiction, but once I tried to peel that back it only revealed the rest of the fearful-avoidant stlye and I found myself hung up and aching for past relationships again even after knowing and reminding myself that they weren't for me and would only destroy me further, but still I yearned for them; all because I was still too afraid to let the woman I loved, who was already closest to me, further into my heart where I know she'd discover my hurt...and then all it took was me seeing, catching a glimpse, of my ex and I fell back down into my spiral of *both* my addiction and my fearful avoidance style and hurt her so badly, I pushed her away as I stabbed her in the back . This woman, who was able to understand me at a level I never expected anyone else to, who I know I'd never be able to find even a chance meeting another like her, this beauty who's only desire was for me to open and completely reveal my soul to, and was only waiting for me to realize it, was torn apart by me and my fear of doing just that. And then I held her here and trapped her in my own avoidant style, only multiplying her newfound pain while I reeled from myself and my actions...I knew what I'd done but until now I'd never understood why I did it..and now all I want to do is find a way to open and heal this hurt in me that's caused so much pain to anyone I try to care about. This girl was the one girl I never believed I'd hurt, I had always hoped she'd never get to see me for the monster I had become. And it was foolish of me to believe that monster side of me would spare her. Now...I know it will take many year and a mountain of effort to regain her trust and rebuild things between us...but I know she's worth it. I know I'll never find another like her, and my only hope now is that she'll stay around or even come back to me once I find a way through this hurt and confusion within the darkness of my soul..

I'm so sorry Koneko chan...all I want to do is make it all up to you. And I promise I will, one bit at a time..

Release: August 16, 2005

Lyrics:

I will not make the same mistakes that you did

I will not let myself 'cause my heart so much misery

I will not break the way you did

You fell so hard

I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side, so I don't get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

I lose my way

And it's not too long before you point it out

I cannot cry

Because I know that's weakness in your eyes

I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh

Every day of my life

My heart can't possibly break

When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side, so I don't get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

I watched you die (I watched you die)

I heard you cry

Every night in your sleep

I was so young (and you're so young)

You should have known better (I was too young for you)

Than to lean on me

You never thought of anyone else

You just saw your pain (you never saw me)

And now I cry

In the middle of the night

For the same damn thing

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

Songwriter:

Because of you

Kelly Clarkson / David Hodges / Ben Moody

SongFacts:

'Because of You' is a ballad by Kelly Clarkson from the album 'Breakaway'. The album didn't have the hoped-for success at first and almost fell into oblivion again. It only climbed the charts with the third song release of 'Because of you'.

Kelly Clarkson wrote the song when she was 16 and wanted to include it on her first album, 'Thankful'. But she received harsh criticism for the song and was told she had no talent for writing. So Clarkson reworked the song with the producers of her second album. The song became a hit around the world.

The song is about the divorce of her parents that Kelly Clarkson witnessed when she was six years old. Some think it might be addressed to her mother, who has been very busy since Kelly Clarkson's father divorced and didn't have time to spend with her daughter.

The song's lyrics suggest that Clarkson has lost her faith in love. Despite all this, she married and has two children.

The accompanying music video was directed by Vadim Perelman and produced by Rhonda Vernet. Clarkson wrote the video's plot herself to reflect the pain she felt over her parents' divorce. Nonetheless, Clarkson allowed Perelman to take control of the production of the video as well. According to Perelman, he wanted to create a breakup to show "that this kind of dysfunctional family can exist anywhere." In an interview with MTV News, Clarkson admitted that the video was sad and rationalizing: "It's a sad song, so obviously the video has to follow that. But it ends really happily and the family, my family, ends up breaking the cycle of my parents.

honestly, it's a little hard to follow along. not that she blames him; his confusion is plain to see, almost as if the words coming out of his mouth aren't so important as the brambles tangled behind his eyes, the tight lines across his face trying to make patterns from absurdity. she finds herself focusing more on that, wishing for a painful second that they were back in the storybook again — magician and knight, star-crossed lovers — only so that she might have the freedom and bravery to reach out and put a hand on his in comfort. it's not acceptable here of course ( and not really there either ), but is all she can do really just listen?

his apology brings her back, and lifts a quiet scarlet gaze back to his face from where it'd fallen to the whorls of wood in the tabletop; and his next admittance makes her pulse skip a beat — not in the way she's used to, flushed cheeks and flustered heat rising, but quieter, somberer. more plaintive. around her, he feels like... she knows him better than himself? where could he possibly be be getting an idea like that?

( sometimes i don't even know myself. )

but either way, it's a feeling: one that she — uniquely — inspires in him. whatever expectations or presumptions he's wary of letting accompany that, caeldori can't bring herself to mind over that one strangely earthshifting truth. for someone, she brings comfort.

"... i don't know. i think that's all we can do." short of leaving fódlan, anyway; but maybe it's just how she is, that that feels like giving up. is it just pigheadedness or really some kind of resilience that keeps her here, keeps her coming back despite that? despite the inability to shake the pervasive sense of that false spring sky. at the mention of unease, she smiles at him — she's not sure what causes it, or what makes the expression a little sad. "even knights get uneasy. ... well, i would know." even her father got uneasy, he'd told her once, something she still found hard to believe. but when she'd heard it, a part of her had felt relief. the same kind of relief she feels here again hearing the same thing from kent, who had been so stalwart an anchor in that bustling fairytale metropolis. she continues a few breaths later when she's collected her thoughts again. "when i was finally able to leave the hamlet where i was raised in order to fight by my father's side, i stepped out of a safe little bubble right into the middle of a war. everything was different, even though all my lessons had prepared me for anything. we were fighting enemies no one had ever seen before, and a force none of us really understood. so..." she clears her throat and idly spins her teacup handle back towards herself, "i guess i'm used to feeling uneasy too, even while i'm making sure i don't show any of it."

and there'd been so much to be uneasy about then. that she wouldn't be good enough, not strong enough to fight alongside her father and his much more experienced allies; that she'd be the weak link, always had to be looked out for; that they'd decide it'd be better if she was sent back to her deeprealm after all. it's easy to see now in hindsight how that anxiety had informed everything she'd done: afraid to let herself rest, always finding something to do and contribute to, always asking everyone who'd give her the time of day to train her or teach her something useful.

"anyway, i think if you're uneasy, that doesn't make you less of a knight, or anything." she colors — wow, how presumptuous, to be talking to an elder, a professor and seasoned retainer, no less, like she knew better than him. too late to backpedal now though. "i've always found, if you can, that talking about it helps, if you have someone you trust who'll listen."

when heaven shall call her

#╰ ･ thread ✱ ∶ when heaven shall call her.#╰ ･ kent ✱ ∶ his body hung for death¸ and the muses called him atlas.#liegebound #red knights club UNITE hahahaha #they really are similar colors huh :joy:#im so gripping sand about kent

TRUE TYPES POST #49: ÁNGEL

DISC: I/C profile; result: I/C (-), not on wheel

SOJT type: Ne-f/Fe-n ( undifferentiated hierarchy, auxiliary sometimes appears to be the dominant)

MBTI type most resonant: ENFP

What were you like in high school?

I was the weird, artsy kid, who practiced bhuddism and didn't have too many friends outside my circle, because I was "controversial "

What is your greatest fear? What do you do to address it?

I don't really think I'm afraid of that much, but if I did have a fear, I think it would be missing out on life. It's so small, I really don't know. I may have overcome my fears

Was there a time in your life where you felt you hit rock bottom? What was the situation behind it?

No. I'm totally positive, and "see the world through rose tinted glasses", as the phrase says. So even when I feel low, I still see the positive in everything.

Where would you put yourself on the social spectrum, and why?

I'd say slightly more extroverted than an ambivert would be

What are some things that really bother you?

Conformity, monotony and not being able to express myself

What, would you say, are your biggest strengths?

I am someone who loves to get people working together on projects, and totally enjoy working together. I am also good at seeing potential in people that others don't.

What, would you say, are your biggest weaknesses?

My head is in the clouds a lot. Also, I try to avoid doing things that will cause me emotional pain

When you switch your attitude between introverted and extroverted, or vise versa, what are you like?

When I'm more introverted, I don't really talk, and communicate more through action. You might catch me sulking

What was the hardest thing you ever had to do? Why was it so hard?

The hardest thing I ever did was realize that your true friends will stick around, even when everyone else turns their back on you. I'm not going into details

What are you like when you're sad?

When I'm sad, I'm by myself until my emotions are under control. Then I share what's wrong, with a few close friends who I trust

How masculine/feminine do you feel in relation to others of your gender?

I'd say, gender-wise, I really don't identify strongly with a gender. I would say I'm ambiguous in that area

Here's 4 focuses you can have in life: tasks, people, objects and ideas. Which one would be your primary focus and why? Which one would be your secondary focus and why?

I'd say ideas first, because I'm all about intangible things like love, freedom, potential, for example. As far as second, I would say people, because they still play a role in my thoughts and decision making

What do you do to have fun?

I can make fun out of nothing. I'm good at creating fun experiences for myself, and sometimes myself and others

What was the nicest thing you ever did for someone, and why did you do it?

The nicest thing I ever did was stand up for a friend of mine who was bullied. I sent 2 people I know to confront the bully. I did it, because I love my friends and family, and no one can do anything like that to them without facing consequences

Thanks, Ángel, for sharing with us

Additional typologies I've been able to do since:

Big 5: high on O, E, A, N. ; 50/50 on C (SLxAI)

So the angst can be put to rest—“Because of You” by Kelly Clarkson for DA, Dark, Celine, and Dark in terms of Actor.

1st verse (DA to Actor. They reflect on the broken individual that they’ve known the Actor to have become. As a result, they promise to never let their anguish while trapped inside of the mirror warp them as badly as the one who started the chaos in the first place. It hits harder if you consider the DA to have been trapped by the Actor for ‘his stories’ during Date and Heist. They’re no longer able to trust nor ever feel completely safe in the Actor’s false realities, especially after Damien (and Celine)’s betrayal. They’ve learned not to trust anyone, but there’s still a part of them that still feels somewhat sympathetic to Actor, despite it all.)

I will not make the same mistakes that you did

I will not let myself 'cause my heart so much misery

I will not break the way you did

You fell so hard

I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side, so I don't get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

2nd verse (Dark to Actor. Dark is a walking 3-in-one amalgamation of all anger, grief, sorrow, and darkness brought to the forefront by the Actor’s actions. He must literally fake being a coherent person at every second, every moment—otherwise, his shell will crack and reveal the horrid truth of his being—even on his ‘good days.’ Despite choosing to play the Villain in the Actor’s plays, he still must do his part to the Actor’s liking to a certain degree. Because of Actor, Dark also likely has a hard time trusting anyone. In my mind, I think of Dark referencing the events of “Damien” in how the Actor reeled Damien out of ‘losing his way’ during Celine’s time-loop. (Also, I like to picture for the last lyric of this verse, Dark admitting to his treacherous creation, he was born out of deception. That mirror cracking at the end of WKM.)

I lose my way

And it's not too long before you point it out

I cannot cry

Because I know that's weakness in your eyes

I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh

Every day of my life

My heart can't possibly break

When it wasn't even whole to start with

Third verse + climax of song (Celine to Actor. She was the one who witnessed the Manor carve the Actor into something awful. I think a part of the reason why Celine left. She was becoming overwhelmed by the Actor’s increased narcissism and fracturing mental-health. She didn’t quite know what to do but the Manor was definitely a part of the problem. Nevertheless, the Actor didn’t agree, which drove a divide between the two. That was further widened by Actor’s absenteeism from his career. (One may interpret the ‘too young’ lyrics of how Celine still wanted the same youthful joys before married life, but Actor was headed in a more restrictive, misogynistic direction. What would people think? Both their goals, expectations, and personalities were slowly polarizing—Celine still yearning to be carefree and becoming burdened by Actor’s heavy-load.)

I watched you die (I watched you die)

I heard you cry

Every night in your sleep

I was so young (and you're so young)

You should have known better (I was too young for you.)

Than to lean on me

(Damien to Actor. The lyrics are pretty straightforward. The feels hit if you consider that Damien is explaining the utter loneliness, which he’s forced to confront every single day. Just like the Actor, he’s corrupted, jaded, and alone. Not to mention, broken beyond repair. ‘You never saw me’ could be a reference to the Actor not considering Damien’s initial rejection of playing his villain. It also could be even calling back to the Actor being in such a load desolate state prior to WKM and never bothering to go to Damien for any support, which would’ve been unconditionally given.

You never thought of anyone else

You just saw your pain (you never saw me)

And now I cry

In the middle of the night

For the same damn thing…

Because of you, I don’t know how to let anyone else in…

Because of you, I’m ashamed of my life

Because it’s empty

Because of you…

I’m afraid.

——

Sorry for the long post, I hope you enjoy!

Holy shit bestie this was a ride. You've had this in your head for a while (/lh /pos)

I haven't heard or thought of this song in probably literal years so now I'm gonna have it stuck in my head all day bc I pretty much knew all the words since I was little lmao

I also love this bc it's like

1. Actor gave them all trust issues and traumatized them beyond repair which, like, relatable but

2. I imagine before this they all really did trust him.

The DA and Damien knew Actor (Damien probably knew Actor better, but it's hard to say), and they were faced with his death at the party. They believed it was someone else who killed him. They couldn't imagine for one moment that it was Actor who had planned an elaborate scheme, an entangled web that they were caught in.

Celine, too, at one point, trusted Actor. She even loved him, considering they were most likely married judging by Wilford's old relationship with her and his disdain toward Actor for "stealing" her from him. But she trusted him and probably even watched as the house corrupted him. After all, she didn't get into the deep occult stuff we see her do until she was with Mark, even telling off Damien for holding her back.

All in all, this just makes the whole situation worse when they find out Actor decided to stab them all in the back and fuck everyone over 🙃

#i don't even know what to tag this as #markiplier #actor mark #mayor damien #celine #wkm mark #wkm damien #wkm celine #wkm district attorney #wkm darkiplier #wkm william #wkm colonel #wkm wilford #angst

Masterlist

Chapter 3: Trolls

Chapter 4: Between two races.

After the nasty business with the Trolls, Thorin believed there to be a cave nearby. We gathered our things and placed them back up onto the ponies. While our steeds waited for our return, we headed to the Troll Hoard. It was filled with riches and gold, something that the dwarves would love.

"Oh, what’s that stench?!" Bofur placed a hand over his nose so he wouldn't have to smell the odor.

"It’s a troll hoard, be careful what you touch," Gandalf warned, the dwarves cough from the foul smell, then as they go deeper inside the cave they come upon the trolls’ treasure. While the dwarves searched the weapons laying around, something caught my eye. It wasn't a blade or dagger, it was a stone, a light blue jewel with the same symbol on my back. Each digonisk family member, when they wished to join the armies a mark would be imprinted in their skin to show their family's crest. Mine was a black dragon with red eyes, it traveled from my waist up to my back to my chest. The stone had the same symbol upon it, up until the last detail. And on the other side, it had letters from my language. If you were reading it in English, it would have said home, but to me, I read it as 'Pilias'. Home, did it mean the old kingdom of Larthas? The stone looked so familiar but I just couldn't place it, where did it come from? Where did the trolls find this?

"Let’s get out of this foul place. Come on, let’s go. Bofur, Gloin, Nori. Y/n." Thorin called catching my attention, but his eyes were upon the stone in my hand. "What is that?" It was too late to hide it now, but perhaps he hadn't seen the runes upon it.

"Just a stone, nothing special but I have a knack for these things." I gave him a fake smile, but he rushed over and held out his hand. He knew I was hiding something, if I were to refuse to give it to him he would become more suspicious about my intentions.

"Hand it over." He demanded, his eyes piercing into mine. All eyes were on us, my hand shakily placed it in his. Once his eyes landed on it, he seemed confused but handed it back to me. "I should've known you would carry something that has the language of your kin." He growled leaving the cave, I let out a breath in relief. I'm glad he could care less about the stone, as we exit the cave the two brothers come up to me.

"Are you alright Y/n?" Kill asked, checking me for any wounds, giving him a small smile I nod.

"Don't worry, I'm alright." My gaze goes down to the object in my hand, and they follow it.

"What is that? What does it say?" Fili asked, hesitantly taking it from me to get a better look.

"In my language, it says Pilias, which means home," I explained as he ran his finger over the carvings, examining it with great caution. The both of them grinned at the design, but it soon faltered as Thorin yelled a warning. Something was coming our way, It sounded like thumping, not hooves or paws of a wolf, but rabbits.

"Stay together! Hurry, now! Arm yourselves!" Gandalf shouted, Kili and Fili stood in front of me protectively. Summoning a bow for myself, Thorin watched in curiosity at the magic I had used. Suddenly Radagast bursts through the bushes on his sled.

"I knew I heard rabbits." I grinned and stepped forward to greet my old friend.

"Radagast. It’s Radagast the Brown!" Gandalf announces as puts his sword away and approaches the brown wizard. Radagast smiled at him for a second but when he saw me he gasped. Before he could ask why I was with dwarves, Gandalf continued. "What on earth are you doing here?"

"I was looking for you, Gandalf. Something’s wrong. Something’s terribly wrong." He was right, the more we traveled across the land the more I felt a darkness come upon us.

"Yes?" Radagast goes to speak but stops, almost as if he lost his train of thought.

"Just give me a minute. Um…Oh! I had a thought and now I’ve lost it. It was…it was was right there, on the tip of my tongue! Oh! It’s not a thought at all! It’s a silly old…stick insect." He sticks his tongue out as Gandalf removes the insect and gives it back to him. The two eventually went off to speak about something, leaving the rest of us to ourselves. Balin gave me and the two brothers a look, Fili and Kili understood but I did not know what was going on.

"Perhaps one of us should stay here," Kili suggested to his brother. "Just in case the others go off the rails."

"Right, I'll speak to uncle. You have 10 minutes, just be careful Y/n, and if anything happens scream as loud as you can." My heart was pounding as Fili went off to distract Thorin, Kili sensed my distress.

"What is going on?" Kili placed a gentle hand on my shoulder, showing that I had nothing to worry about.

"Me, Balin, and Fili have decided to try and convince the rest of the dwarves that your not a threat. As each day passes Thorin becomes angrier with you, and one day we might not be able to protect you. Though if we convince the rest that your no threat then they'll be willing to protect you against my uncle."

"I can handle myself against a few dwarves Kili."

"I know, but Balin said it's better to have allies than none. Don't worry, I'll be here to protect you." He whispers and led me towards the others, I still didn't trust this idea. Why are they so determined on helping me?

"Lads while we have a moment," Balin spoke, looking back towards me for a second. "I beg that you be open-minded, and none of you speak of this to Thorin."

"What is it, brother?" Dwalin spoke stepping closer, he glanced over at us. "Is Kili trying to court Y/n?" My cheeks went red at that, Kili only looked at me and smirked. Wait, courting, Kili winked at me last night when he handed my bowl. One of the courting parts was for the interested person, to give their 'one' more food than the rest. It was a way of showing that they could provide for them. Was Kili trying to court me?

"No, we only have a short time so I'll say this quick. How many of you, know the truth about Digonisks? How many of you believe that they had nothing to do with raiding villages?" No one raised their hands, they all just looked at each other in confusion. "That is what I thought, each of you has been misled. Digonisks are not the enemy, they're the peacekeepers of middle earth."

"They slaughtered out people! Listen to yourself, Balin! She has you under her spell! Under a curse!" Before anyone could react Dwalin rushed over to me, and grabbed me by the shoulders with his weapon pointed at my neck. "You let go of my brother you witch!" His hand came in contact with my cheek, I waited for him to hit me again but I did not feel the impact. Balin and Kili stood in front of me, and both of them were furious.

"She does not have me under a spell! I know that her kind is innocent for a fact! For I am the one, who wrote the reports." Everyone's eyes widened in shock at his words, that can't be Thror was the one who wrote them. "Thror found out that I had written the truth, but while he was under the dragon sickness he ordered for me to show no one. He took it from me and threatened that if I were to show anyone I would be framed for murder. I and Thrain were the only people who knew about it, and we kept it a secret for we had no idea there was any digonisk left alive. I wanted to tell everyone, but after the cold blast, I realized if the truth were to come out people would despise us as they despise her kin. And I couldn't do that to my family, I didn't want my family to be treated as such."

"So you kept it a secret cause you were afraid of being treated like we had been for almost a hundred years?! Do you have any idea how much pain and suffering my people have been through?!" Each dwarf looked down in shame, they couldn't believe what they had heard. For all this time Balin knew the truth and he kept it to himself, cause he didn't want for his kin to be driven to hide in the shadows. "I can't believe this, why didn't you say anything at the beginning of this journey? Why didn't you say anything to Thorin?"

"He would not believe me! He may be reasonable but without hard evidence, he wouldn't believe the words that slipped from my mouth. Like Dwalin he would've hurt you, or worse, left you for dead."

"Then why tell them?"

"Thorin is becoming sick, every day we get closer to the mountain the more his need for gold grows. I've seen it, the dragon sickness is already taking effect. Them, they would believe me, for I do not lie." I wanted to blame him, but he was right. I would've probably made the same call as well, if my kin made a huge mistake and I knew the truth I probably wouldn't have told anyone. And with Thorin, that darkness that is following us, what if it's him? The dragon sickness, what if that is what I keep sensing? If he truly has it then he would not believe Balin, for he would most likely blame me. "Brother, the rest of you. I beg that you protect her against him, for he is not himself. And each day as that illness grows so does the hatred for digonisks."

"That day, of the cold blast...you were innocent weren't you?" Dwalin asked softly, he didn't seem angry anymore. He seemed on his guard but not angry as someone had betrayed him.

"We were, we had done nothing wrong but your kind had to take my kins freedom over some rumor. You know for years I wanted revenge for what the humans and dwarves had done to my kind. I wanted to end every life for the death of my family, but even in their darkest hour my mother and father still offered a truce. Even though you all slaughtered my kin like cattle, but I promised my mother something before she died." Tears ran down my cheeks as I thought her last words. I looked down, not being able to look them in the eyes. I almost couldn't finish my speech, just thinking about how much we suffered made me want to lunge at them. Made me want to hurt them but it wasn't them who did this, it was their ancestors. "No matter how much it hurts to be around you, I still kept my promise...Do you want to know what her last words were?" My gaze met his once more and he seemed more startled, his eyes widened with horror and remorse. I could feel that he was starting to understand my words and my past. "Her last words were, 'don't take revenge.' Even after everything you had done to us, after every death you had caused, she still begged for peace..." Dwalin's form made his way over to me, Kili gripped the handle of his sword as a warning but he didn't care. Instead, Dwalin slightly pushed him to the side, and then embraced me in his arms. Was he hugging me?

"I'm sorry you had to go through that, all of it. I wish we hadn't caused you such discomfort." He pulled back, his hands resting on my shoulders. "I recognized the pain in your eyes, it's the same suffering my brother had when we finished the war against our enemies in Moria. Only a person who experienced something like that is the only one I can believe." He placed himself next to me, I felt more confident now that we had him for we had a better chance at convincing the others. "Who else will join me? Who else will stand against Thorin's wrath if it comes to it?" The rest stood there, some with tears and others with a look of guilt. Bilbo, came to my side, he didn't know much about our past but I'm glad he was on my team. Kili grabbed my hand, squeezing it, telling me it was ok. Each dwarf, one by one came closer to me bowing their heads in respect.

"Don't worry Y/n, we will all defend you from Thorin. Each of us will make sure he never finds out about this, and if he does we'll protect you." Bofur who was the last dwarf to walk over bowed. Which was a good thing, because now I had all dwarves as allies. And just in time to, because Thorin came back with his nephew flustered. Fili seemed angrier than ever, was talking to his uncle that bad? Interrupting my thoughts, we heard a howling noise, making Bilbo worry.

"Was that a wolf? Are there…are there wolves out there?" He asked curiously, that was not a wolf, and I knew exactly what that was.

"Warg scouts are nearby." I pulled my weapon out once more just as something growls from behind us, we all turn to see a warg. It pounces going for Bofur but I shot it with an arrow killing it instantly. Another appeared from behind, which was killed by Thorin and Kili.

"Who did you tell about your quest, beyond your kin?" Gandalf charged over to Thorin with rage in his eyes.

"No one."

"Who did you tell?!" He asked again but he replied with the same answer.

"No one, I swear! What in Durin’s name is going on?"

"You are being hunted." Hunted? Why would the dwarves be hunted? No one else knew about our quest, perhaps they were coming for me?

"We have to get out of here." Dwalin exclaimed but Ori came running from the side.

"We can’t! We have no ponies. They bolted." He panted heavily, crap, no ponies no way out. We could fight them, but what good would that do us?

"I’ll draw them off." Radagast says getting back onto his sled.

"These are Gundabad wargs. They will outrun you!" Gandalf states but he raised his hand in a fist determined.

"These are Rhosgobel rabbits. I’d like to see them try." Gandalf turns to me and gestures towards him.

"Go, don't worry you will see us again. I believe you know where we are headed." Rivendell, that's where he was leading the dwarves. Quickly I got on the back on Radagasts sled and readied my bow.

"Absolutely not!" Thorin growled as he grabbed my arm, but Fili pushed him away.

"Don't you lay a hand on her!" He yelled, I could hear him arguing with his uncle as we race off towards an unknown location. As we were being pursued by Orcs and wargs, I shot them one by one with my ethereal arrows. I had one hand on the sled to keep me on while the other would shoot arrows from my crossbow, I smiled as I took one down.

"So are you going to tell me what you're doing with a bunch of dwarves?" Radagast yelled trying to hold on the best he could.

"Gandalf wants me to kill Smaug! Don't worry all of them know who I am, and they're fine with it!" I explained, that seemed to be a good enough reason for him. I shot a few more down, but the more we were chased, the riskier it got for the company. I would see them every so often, and soon they were found. All of the orcs stopped following us, and followed them instead. The moment we stopped at the edge of the forest I went to go save my friends until I spotted elves charging towards the orc pack. That's good, I thought sighing in relief.

"Don't worry, your friends are on their way to Rivendell. Which you should be there before them, they will want to make sure you're ok. Be careful, not many people will be open to the idea of having your kind around." That was the last thing he said before going off on his own again. He was right, I should probably get going. Spreading my wings, I fluttered them creating a big gust of wind as I made my way to Rivendell. I flew over the mountain with the hidden valley coming into view and spotted the dwarves below on a rock staring down at the city before them. Yet as they felt the winds of a hurricane they all looked up towards me, some cheered knowing I was ok and quickly made their way down the mountain to meet me at the entrance. I began to descend, my feet contacted with the concrete stone on the passageway.

"Wocel. (Wecome)" Lindir greeted in Digon as he came down the steps, his long hair flowing down his back.

"I see your Digon has gotten better, have you been studying for me?" I joked, giving him a small smile, it has been a while since I've stopped in Rivendell. This is where most of our wheat and water sources come from, for we live in the sky and have no access to the ground. "Wiher isi Kigna Elrond? (Where is King Elrond?)"

"It may have gotten better, but I still don't understand some words in your language. So English please milady." His gaze turns to someone behind me, to greet the old grey wizard who was at fault for bringing me on this journey. "Mithrandir."

"Ah, Lindir." Gandalf greeted, but that's not the type of greeting I got. Thorin's eyes roamed over my body, and he gasped as he saw the bruise forming on my face.

"What did I tell you? You can't handle yourself!" He yelled, pointing to the purple markings on my cheek. "Like I said, your nothing but a burden to this company. Perhaps you should leave the work to the real warriors."

"Enough Thorin! That is from no orc, it is from me." Dwalin turned to face him with a furious look, though he glanced at his hand in disappointment. "I struck her for hitting you, and she did not expect it."

"So not only is she weak, but blind as well. Only the more reason as to why she shouldn't be here, this is no place for filth like her."

"Don't call me that." I whispered tears sprung to my eyes, it's like I was weak around him. As if I couldn't handle my posture when he was in my presence, what can't I stay strong? Why do his words hurt me more than others? All he did was shake his head.

"How can you expect to fight a dragon when you act like a child." I did nothing this time, I didn't hit him, I didn't strike him. I just turned away and went to go to the garden but he spoke once more. "Your weak, just like the rest of your kin that died in the cold blast."

"What did you just say to me?" My eyes turned red as my wings spread, he wasn't smiling anymore. "You call me weak? I'll show you weak!" With one blast of my magic, I threw him back making him hit the white bridge. He let out a gasp of air, trying to gather his breath but I had knocked the wind out of him. I wasn't done with him, I made my way over with a sword in hand. "You think you can take me on?" I brought down my sword, quickly he blocked. "You think that your stronger than me?!" I struck again, this time cutting his cheek. "I AM Y/N! THE QUEEN OF THE DIGONISKS! THE SOUL OF THE BLACK DRAGON!" He blocked each time I went to hit him, he didn't hit me back, he just stared at me in horror. I brought down my weapon once more, and this time he couldn't block, for he was to slow. My weapon stopped as it was pointed at his neck, and I smirked at the fear that was painted on his face. "You will do well to respect me, for you have just been bested. So Thorin, any words?" He kept silent as he stood, sheathing his blade. I returned to my normal form, and walked off towards the sanctuary.

Elrond wouldn't mind, Rivendell was like my second home anyways. Elves besides wizards were the only ones who knew what happened that day. They knew that my people weren't terrible, they knew the truth. Walking through the garden, my mind swirled with thoughts. My actions didn't help my case that I was innocent, what I had just done to their king was not right. I shouldn't have been so careless, I should've kept calm. Let's just hope they all forgive me, for I need their help to get through this journey.

~♪♠♪~

The sun began to set, making everything an orange shade, and the water down below was just gorgeous. I missed land, our floating island wasn't that big and we barely had room for farms. I wish we could go back to Larthas, hopefully, once I get those scrolls we can return home.

"Y/n." A gruff voice called, he stood next to me, arms folded against his chest. The cut on his cheek had been tended to, it wasn't as deep as I thought it was. Tears sprung to my eyes, I didn't feel like dealing with him right now. And the thought of his words from earlier hurt me more.

"Please go away." My words came out like a whisper, he didn't say anything as he joined me on the balcony. He sent me a look of remorse as he noticed the tear that slipped down my cheek. "I do not want to deal with your hatred right now."

"I do not have hatred for you."

"Really? Cause that's how you acted this entire trip. All because of where I come from, you see me as nothing but an enemy...I've tried my hardest to keep calm but you're making it hard. Why do you hate me so much? What have I've done to you? I barely know you!" His hand hesitantly slipped over mine, he clutched it gently, I wanted to pull away but I also wanted to enjoy this moment. It was very rare that I would have a moment like this with him, where he was nice.

"...I'm sorry, your right I have been acting rudely. I shouldn't have said the things I said. It was wrong for me to speak in such a way...I worry, I worry that you'll turn your back on us. That you're not here to slay Smaug, that your here to kill us."

"If I wanted to kill you I would've done it already, besides Gandalf wouldn't bring me along if he knew I would do such a thing." As much as I wanted to beat the crap out of Thorin for hurting me, I understand how he felt. I have to worry about myself, I have to worry if they've poisoned me or not. Or if they're planning to kill me, it was all so frustrating. "I know you hate me, but you shouldn't, for I am not the one who slaughtered your kin. Even if my kind had, I was too young to be a soldier during that time. And I'm pretty sure you were too young to be a soldier when the cold blast happened. So truth is, we shouldn't hate each other for something our ancestors did." I glanced over at him, a look of guilt spread across his face as he became deeper in thought. His eyes became glossy for a moment, but he blinked them away and smiled at me.

"Your right, we shouldn't hate each other for something we weren't there for." He seemed nervous, almost as if he had to choose his words carefully. "It's not like I could've been there at the cold blast, it was almost two hundred years ago." There was sarcasm in his voice, I had a feeling he was lying to me about something, the cold blast was a hundred years ago. Not two, how old was he? "Perhaps we could start over?" He looked at me with hope, his body became incredibly close to mine. I couldn't help but smile at his efforts.

"I'd like that."

Words: 2578 Author: M.Soul Genre: suspense, au, bl, psychopathic

________________________________________

March 21, 2017

It took me about 20 minutes to decide what to do at this point in my life. If you leave the house, call Mom, go with the bums in the neighborhood to get something stronger than marijuana, or write.

The latter would be the least likely in my lifestyle, but after a few words I realized that it is more effective than a visit to the psychiatrist.

Do you want to know what I'm doing here? A seedy city full of danger was, or is the only one, that has truly welcomed me. Maybe it's because everyone is wrong here.

Thieves, drug addicts, thugs, prostitutes ... Yes, they are all wrong.

At 23, I have too many souls who desire mine as the only form of revenge. The orphanage in my hometown threw me out when they found the body of one of the superiors in my room. However, I was not the one who left it there; If I had done it, I would not have left it in the open, showing that I was the culprit.

Suffice it to say that whenever I say that I didn't do it, no one believes me, there will always be mistrust of me.

March 25, 2017

Sorry I haven't written in four days. I had a trip. It has been the longest and most exhausting. In addition to visiting my mother, who is becoming more and more nervous about my health, I had to resolve a certain issue that was interfering in my path.

I declined to tell you, you're not ready yet ... Just wait, maybe, and I'll tell you all those adventures full of other people's pleas.

March 26, 2017

The music sounds from the club outside my house, the music is so bad that it causes me to get out of bed and kill everyone who is present to see if that way the persistent noise ends.

But I refuse to do it, I want to be able to narrate a day in which at least I don't have blood on my hands. Every month, if it's not a lot, I have a crisis where I feel the need to make someone feel pain. If I can't do it, I do it to myself.

Maybe it's disturbing, but how satisfying it feels.

March 27, 2017

I thought it through, better than I have thought many things. If I really want to write to you, I must confide in you my darkest fears, my most disturbing memories, my most painful thoughts.

Trust is built on that, I think.

I have tried to be honest with people, hoping that they will have the same trust with me as I do with them. But I also think that's more of a dream than a reality. I can want so much and get so little.

Life has shown me to trust, how to trust, how to carry everything on my shoulders showing a smile even though inside everything is as broken as a glass thrown from a table.

I have not been strong enough not to cry, however, although the pain is terribly heartbreaking, the tears do not come because it forces me to assume that they will not help me solve anything.

I've just waited, I keep doing it; while I wait I find myself in the obligation to unload my pain in something else.

Furthermore, I think that's the main reason. My disorder is just a side effect.

It is a controversial diagnosis described as a personality alteration characterized by narcissism, impulsivity, and controlling and manipulative behaviors. Lack of empathy and feelings of guilt; also confused with the sociopath, but with slight perceptible differences for the normal population.

Or so the web says about psychopathy.

My family's concern grows more every day, they don't know what I'm doing. If so, I prefer not to know the possibilities.

It would not be me who is in danger, it would be them too. Believe it or not, I can have feelings.

April 01, 2017

I left home around six in the morning. This time I couldn't stand the sound of the cars and their stereos. So, I took a cloth with chloroform, a knife and slammed the door. Several of the neighbors saw me go through the corridors like a soul carried by the devil, but no one crossed my path, they left the space free. They must be afraid of me, although I don't think I gave them reasons.

Look from side to side before crossing the streets. From that point, the music was louder, giving the sensation that I was being hit with a mallet.

— Hello, handsome —said one of the drunken women who was standing on the hood of one of the cars that owned the noise. At the call I smiled slyly, making my way through the people who were trying to stay upright, while little by little I took out a knife perfectly stored on the side.

Next to the girl there was a man dressed completely in black, he was looking with a frown at everything that was happening around him, including me in that sad scene.

It was he who had the last word to set my goal.

—But if the devil came to the party —he walked away from the car in my direction— what brings you here? Girl to fuck or fun?

—I'd rather you help me choose. —I let out another smile before walking to the car.

Surprisingly, that invitation was enough for him to retrace his steps, say goodbye to his people and enter the vehicle without apparent direction under the few lights on that morning.

We came to an almost abandoned area. There were about three, four motels open twenty-four hours. So, we went into one of them. However, before crossing the door, I made him stop and kiss him, perhaps to kill time, or as a way of expressing the kiss of death because after doing a little distance the cloth smeared with chloroform took the previous place. Of my face.

The motel clerk saw how her body fell inert on me, however she had the decency to only ask what had happened, ignoring that we were two men walking in the break of day in a passing hotel.

Before his question, I told him that he had fallen drunk because of the drunkenness, for my peace of mind he only gave me the keys and returned to his room.

In the room, I dropped him on the thin mattress, his body bounced without falling. I sighed in exhaustion from carrying him a long way in my arms, plus fatigue did not stop me when I approached the boy and stabbed him in the space between lung and heart.

He knew the basics of anatomy, so he was almost certain that the pain he was causing her was deadly but not deadly. So, the second hit was on his lung, that way it would inevitably fill with blood and his body would start to lack oxygen.

It was all a matter of time, so I sped up the process. Perhaps in his unconsciousness he did not feel much, but his body reacted to my hands surrounding his neck until he felt the bone crack.

April 09, 2017

The day after I killed the boy, on the news, the reporters went out of their way to get the scoop on the case. It had turned into the hunt for Jack The Ripper, a relentless search for the boy the motel clerk had described.

Almost six feet tall, dragon eyes, brown hair and dimples. However, in a country where we all had access to the world of beauty and the great houses of stylists, no one dying was enough to find me. But yes, I got my deserved position in the most wanted.

I have been on the run for eight days, but had to return home for supplies. Boarding a bus, I was able to camouflage myself among the citizens until I returned, however couldn't sleep at home, so a motel room and pink hair dye provided a chance to go unnoticed for a while.

May 17, 2017

It has been more than a month, so it is convenient that I tell you everything. Since, I already lost everything, even my freedom.

Apparently, changing my hair tone didn't help me escape. Still, the police found me on the Gimhae pass to Busan, my destination.

Damn, why do they also do their work when they want? The good thing about it all is that the inmates seem to fear me. From what I heard between whispers, I am one of the few who have been admitted with a true psychiatric diagnosis, for which, they say, I am behind bars. So, they prefer to leave me alone.

The owners of the other cells are here for stealing, murder, trafficking, among other crimes. In my case, my record exceeds that of a few by far. Added to that is the illegal carrying of weapons under a mental condition.

To tell the truth, I didn't know it was that bad; or well, maybe yes, but I did not see it as something that reveals. It awakened nothing in me.

Now I'm in jail, the life of a madman behind bars, worthy of a thriller / thriller title. But that will not happen because no one would be interested in the unfortunate life of a boy from Ilsan with mental problems, trapped in his flight to the tip of the country and with a diagnosis big enough not to hesitate to lock him up.

But my conditions are not as dire as they sound. I have a unit cell, but without any of my belongings. But they let me keep the worn notebook that I didn't want to part with.

So far, only one doctor is in charge of my case, keeps the guards and directives of the place informed of my progress. But I've never seen him in person.

In other, more interesting news, apparently I am not feared by everyone. Several guys in the middle of breaks come up looking for attention, which I don't deny them if I get mine. They see me as an idol, as one of the protagonists of horror films; they give me the importance that at some point I thought I had. So, I've kissed them, days when the guards ignore the inmates and leave them at ease. But they are only a way to entertain me in the long days without light.

The time has come, dear. You may say that your owner has been a lunatic all his life, and perhaps he is. But this lunatic lists his crimes for you.

10 years: two dogs with a rock.

11 years: four squirrels, same method.

12 years: EMPTY HISTORY.

13 years old: a boy my age. A stalker who was chastised for being bullied. I prefer to omit the details.

14 years: a superior. He saw me with another boy, and he started insulting us. The next day: suffocated.

15 years: RESIDENCE: CORRECTIONAL.

17 years: two boys. I no longer remember the reason.

18 years: the neighbor. Accurate cut.

19 years old: the son of the new neighbor. In the bathtub like a suicide.

20 years: three women, all bitches.

21 years: Armed assault on a grocery store. Five people were stabbed. Burned recordings.

22 years: a man. With a rope around his neck, like a somewhat sanguinary suicide.

23 years old: a young alcoholic. Drugged and unconscious, he was killed by suffocation and stabbing.

There have been criminals with fewer years of crime and higher numbers of victims. Now it's my turn to pay with the same coin, I guess. I bragged for years of my escape ability to end up in the same place as the biggest idiots.

However, it would be a lie to say that he did not expect this ending. I'm at a point where I no longer have anything to lose.

Perhaps the only person who could defend me died three days ago. Due to a heart attack, my mother left without giving me the chance to fire her. And it's funny, she was not my biological mother, but I always saw her as that absent figure that I loved with all my being.

I declare the arrival of rest for those I have once hurt, humiliated and destroyed. You can finally leave in peace.

May 17, 2017

The guards thought that among Kim NamJoon's belongings there would be no artifacts that could be used to kill or injure someone. However, they were all wrong. By owning a cell away from the others, he had the opportunity to move in silence, without being seen or stopped in time.

NamJoon searched among his things for the bag of shoelaces he carried with him, smiling as they came out between hands, beginning the work of tying, one by one, the short pieces of fabric that in the end became the great rope.

Since his arrival, the idea of dying furrowed his mind. He had already played the role of angel of death for others, now he had to wait for the arrival of his angel or to be his own. It wasn't remorse or guilt, it was just the need to pursue the loved one who was her mother. He had the perfect justification, the pain of losing a family member. Although psychiatrists said that, a despicable being like him could not feel those kinds of emotions.

In his journal, before all this, he had made a space the perfect size to hide a razor. And the razor he had kept there was still intact and gleaming. So, he left it in the waistband of his pants before continuing with his suicide plan.

He took his new rope and folded it in half, and then wrapped it around his neck in such a way that by tying it from the window, there was no way to free himself or to reduce the force.

And so, he did, whoever designed that cell never thought of the possibility that, by rolling the bed, the window would be far enough off the ground to prevent a person from standing and looking through it at the same time. So, flopping off the edge of her bed, the metal of the window frame screeched before she felt a thud against the wall from its weight.

The air was starved every second faster, so while ignoring the pain that settled on his neck, he took the beautiful razor that he had in his clothes and made a couple of cuts on each hand letting the blood flow from his body like two tiny rivers of crimson liquid that would release the demon that lived in that rotten body for 23 years.

Namjoon's body was found at lunchtime when all the guards noticed his absence from the dining room. But they did not expect to find such a scene. Cases of attempted suicide had been seen, but none were successful, so the search for clues began as soon as the body was lowered from its makeshift gallows. However, the only thing they found was the diary of the deceased, finding descriptions that forced them to close the book and immediately hand it over to the doctor, who was only seeing the monitored cell through the armored glass.

House Isekai: A Realm Reborn - Part 3, Thunder Rolls (2 of 2)

House Isekai ARR Masterlist Here

—

Client: Marianne Von Edmund

With Marianne's help, the new House Isekai split off into teams to find this mysterious object and take it down before it becomes too dangerous...

[Tactics - Fire Emblem: Three Houses OST]

Marianne handed Sitri a paper with all the findings her scouts have reported.

(Marianne) "I hope this will be of use to you all."

(Sitri) "It will, thank you, Marianne."

Marianne nodded and smiled.

(Marianne) "Please be careful, I would not like to see any of you come to harm."

(Kazuma) "Eh, don't worry, the kids'll be fine with us!"

Marianne raised an eyebrow, although her smile was still kept.

(Marianne) "With Rean and the others, I can believe that."

(Kazuma) "Hey, who was the group that saved your guys asses plenty of times back then? Mine, that's who!"

(Rean) "Aaaand, don't forget who bailed you out for a lot of those situations."

(Aigis) "It was us."

Kazuma continued to cause a commotion, letting the other groups spectate.

(Jean) "They all seem rather close."

(Lisa) "Reminds you a bit of home, doesn't it?"

Lisa smirked as she turned to Kaeya and Diluc.

Diluc rolled his eyes while Kaeya shrugged.

(Kurt) "I trust Instructor Rean and Towa's guidance, but I am unsure about the other two."

(Juna) "Well, that Aigis lady seems nice enough though, now that I think on it, what CAN those two do?"

(Ash) "Noticed Kazuma has a dagger and a short sword on his belt, but for Aigis...can't tell."

(Altina) "It appears she is like me."

(Juna) "Wait, as in not human?"

Musse turned to the Garreg Mach students.

(Musse) "What do you guys think?"

(Astrid) "Eh? Well, I dunno. I've only heard stories, never seen them in action."

(Helena) "Gets kinda hard to tell what's true."

(Stefan) "I guess today's our lucky day!"

(Elizabeth) "Hmph, if you call having to deal with otherworldy monstrosities lucky!"

(Helena) "Harsh. These people aren't that ugly."

(Elizabeth) "What in the-That is not what I meant and you know it!"

(Kairos) "..."

(Astrid) ? "Kairos? Somethin' up?"

(Kairos) "Huh? Oh, I am fine. It's nothing."

Kairos looked back down, a bit dejected.

(Stefan) "The things Lady Marianne and Sitri say getting you down?"

Kairos raised his voice to object but sighed instead.

(Kairos) "I just cannot believe I let my immaturity get the best of me there. These people are the reason we're here right now, but I cannot shake off how I feel that easily."

(Elizabeth) "I...would be lying if I said I did not feel the same."

Venti and Amber didn't mean to eavesdrop, but it was hard not to considering how loudly they were announcing their feelings to the entire group.

(Venti) "If that's the case, why not get to know us then?"

(Elizabeth and Kairos) "Huh?"

(Amber) "Yeah, this mission looks to be tough, so if we all work together, I'm sure we'll be friends in no time!"

(Kurt) "I would not be opposed to it. Well, considering that we also have no alternatives present as well.'

Meanwhile, the Instructors finally finished their conversation.

(Marianne) "I wish you luck, House Isekai."

(Rean) "Thanks, Marianne. We'll be back as soon as we can."

Marianne bowed and went inside back to her estate, leaving the Instructors to walk back to their groups.

(Towa) "So, what's the plan?"

(Sitri) "I...Hm."

She stopped walking to take a moment to think.

(Sitri) "I think it'd be best if we were to all search together. We have no idea what we'd be up against."

The tone of her voice made it sound like it was more of a suggestion than a command.

(Sothis) "Looks like the group has another one."

(Diluc) "Miss Sitri, was it? If we could speak our mind."

(Sitri) "Huh? O-Oh, Go ahead."

Kazuma leaned over to Rean.

(Kazuma) "She doesn't exactly sound confident for a headmaster."

(Rean) "Being fair, she was just a nun from what we were told by Jeralt."

(Aigis) "Affirmative, she also was very weak and could not leave Garreg Mach often."

(Towa) "...S-So, if that's the case, how is she walking around out here carrying her sword no problem?"

The four stared at her while Diluc was explaining the group's plan.

(Rean) "Lahabrea did mention she was chosen to be resurrected for a reason...Did we ever find out why?"

They were silent.

(Kazuma) "Tch, even dead Those Who Slither are a pain in our ass. We never get straight answers from them"

(Aigis) "Well, that wasn't Those Who Slither, that was Byle-...Er, Lahabrea who did the resurrection himself."

(Towa) "Regardless, I think we should ask this ourselves another time."

(Diluc) "...And so, we think splitting up is the best way to approach this threat."

(Sitri) "Well..."

(Jean) "You have our word that nothing will befall any of your students."

(Kurt) "And mine as well."

(Helena) "To be fair, this would be a good way to know how we all fight considering this is our first assignment together."

(Sitri) "Fair enough...Very well, we shall split into teams.

(Rean) "I think it'd be best to mix and match teams."

(Aigis) "Agreed. Based off initial data, I will configure the teams as follows:

First Team will consist of: Rean, Sitri, Helena, Stefan, Kaeya, Amber, Altina, and Ash.

Second team will consist of: Myself, Kazuma, Astrid, Diluc, Jean, Venti, Kurt, and Juna.

Third team will consist of: Towa, Kairos, Elizabeth, Lisa, and Musse."

(Jean) "No objections from me."

(Ash) "Sounds fine."

(Musse) "Aww, I wanted one with Rean-"

(Rean) "You'll be fine under Towa's command. Besides, she was your homeroom teacher anyway."

(Lisa) "Ouch, shot down."

(Musse) "Doesn't mean I'm giving up!~"

(Lisa) "Oh, I like your attitude, love is such a powerful thing..."

(Towa) "Uh...."

(Elizabeth) "I had some slight objections being put in a group with you, Kairos, but now? I think I am glad to have at least someone familiar..."

(Kairos) "Ugh, the feeling's mutual."

(Rean) "Right then. We'll split up and meet at this point in the map if we don't find anything."

(Kazuma) "How are we gonna keep in contact if shit goes down?"

(Aigis) "Rean and Towa have their Arcus Units, and I believe the students of Garreg Mach have something similar."

(Stefan) "Yes, we were all given a communication crystal upon our entry for Sitri's group."

All the students of Garreg Mach pulled out a small flat crystal that faintly glowed blue.

(Kaeya) "We have our methods then. It's probably best we stop wasting time and get moving."

(Sitri) "Agreed. Everyone, remember to be safe. This may be only our first assignment, but do not underestimate the danger. Your lives could be thrown away if you're careless enough."

Everyone nodded and split up.

(Towa) "Alright, looks like we'll head to the site where it was first spotted. This way everyone."

Towa's group walked down a path deeper into the forest and slowly disappeared from sight of everyone else...

...

Doomguy's Base, Present...

Doomguy tapped his foot while listening to the Persona Users give their explanation of what was happening.

Apparently, Ryuji, Ann, Mitsuru, and Naoto fought off a group of hulking green creatures calling themselves "Orks" who came from Fodlan's Crystal Tower.

(Yu) "And that's about the gist of it."

(Yosuke) "Yeah, we weren't close enough to the scene and the news gets everything wrong anyway.."

(Futaba) "Even with my hacking I can't get a full picture, it happened so fast."

(Akihiko) "You still got any idea what's going on in Fodlan right now?"

Doomguy shook his head, and shrugged to the air, indicating for VEGA to speak for him.

(VEGA) "Unfortunately, no. There is too much interference for us to make contact with those currently in. That being the case, they are working to rectify this communication block, hopefully soon."

(Junpei) "So what, we're supposed to twiddle our thumbs and just wait?"

(Yukari) "And what exactly can we do, Stupei? If all of us just jump in guns blazing, who knows how long we'd be trapped, and how Fodlan would react!"

(Makoto) "Our entry and exit wasn't the most graceful after all..."

(Akira) "I have faith in everyone over there. It'll be up to us to keep our home safe."

(Chie) "Hey, who else has responded anyway? Seems not too many of us were able to make it in there."

(VEGA) "You are correct. The only ones to answer the call are yourselves, Rean, Elliot, Laura, Fie, Towa, and Kazuma."

(Morgana) "Anyone else?"

(VEGA) "The Denizens of Nazarick appear to be busy handling their world's politics, but they have acknowledged our call and plan to send whoever is available. The same goes for the remaining members of Class VII."

(Teddie) "Oh, how about Yuki-chan and the others?"

(Fuuka) "The School-Living Club?"

(VEGA) "I'm afraid nothing has been sent our way. Not even an acknowledgement."

(Rise) "I hope they're alright. Their world didn't exactly sound forgiving..."

(Kanji) "It's prolly' best they weren't here anyway. Not sure they'd be much help...Er, wait that sounds bad!"

(VEGA) "Negative. You are objectively correct, in terms of combat at least. Megumi and the School-Living Club were the least active members when it came to fights. Their efforts were focused on helping fleeing civilians and moral support. Neither of which we are sure is needed for Fodlan's current circumstances."

(Ken) "I'm sure everyone's fine. We should be worried less about how they are and more on how the Crystal Tower came to our world to begin with."

(VEGA) "We are currently looking into that as we speak. Please feel free to rest here until then."

The Persona users nodded and tried their best to relax, not knowing what the future would bring...

[Stilness of Night - Trails of Cold Steel 3 OST]

A few hours later...

Towa's group kept investigating the points of which the scouts had written on the reports, but they had found nothing.

No trace of any warning shots Marianne mentioned, its like they had completely erased the evidence.

The sun was starting to set, but thankfully it was still bright enough for them to keep looking untroubled.

Lisa was close by with Towa, looking with her and Musse while Kairos and Elizabeth investigated somewhere close by.

(Towa) "Hm...still nothing."

(Musse) "Instructor Towa?"

(Towa) "What is it, Musse?"

(Musse) "If I can ask, why is it that the people of this world hold such hostility against you?"

(Lisa) "I have been rather curious myself. It seems every opportunity those two in particular talk bad about your old group."

Towa looked up and made sure Kairos and Elizabeth was far away enough for her to continue.

(Towa) "Truth be told, our group was a mess. We kept coming in out of nowhere, and forming this massive superpower that threw a wrench into all the world leader's plans for...whatever they were going to do. World Domination? Separation? I have no idea."

Towa's eyes looked down as her expression darkened.

(Towa) "We lost a lot of friends during that war too, they gave their lives for a world they didn't know. But this place is home to us, just as much as it is to them..."

Musse and Lisa looked at each other but didn't say anything else.

Towa was doing her best to keep those memories out of her head. She had to keep a clear mind for this assignment.

Though, being told that their group was the reason a civil war was on the brink again, it didn't sit well in her stomach.

Towa's mind ached, thinking the possibility of losing even more friends to this world, which she was struggling to keep out.

Lisa walked towards Towa, kneeling down and rubbing her head.

(Lisa) "There there...I'm sure they'd understand if you told them. No need to fret."

Towa shot back up, a slight tinge of red as she put her hands on her hat.

(Towa) "ACK!"

(Lisa) "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to startle."

(Towa) "N-No you're fine, Miss Lisa! I'm just usually used to Rean doing that...Which, now that I say out loud, is kinda weird..."

(Musse) "Hmph, lucky."

(Lisa) "Is it weird? I was under the impression you were a couple with the way you acted."

(Musse) "I'm sure she'd like that!"

Lisa and Musse's smirks were flustering Towa.

(Towa) "T-That's not relevant, Musse! And Miss Lisa, we are NOT a couple!"

(Lisa) "So, you're available then?"

(Towa) "BWUH-WHAT?!"

Lisa failed to hold back a chuckle.

(Lisa) "Relax cutie, I'm just joking...Mostly."

(Towa) "Ugh, please just focus back on the task at hand!"

She began mumbling to herself.

(Towa) "You think I'd be used to this considering how much time I've spent with Angie and Crow..."

Lisa crossed her arms as she turned back to finding any signs of a fight.

(Musse) "...Thanks for doing that, Miss Lisa. I never liked seeing Instructor Towa get that down on herself."

(Lisa) "Figured no one does, from what I've gathered. By the way, have you found anything?"

(Musse) "Not particularly. Though that being said-"

Musse began speaking with Lisa who crouched down next to her, pointing at the trees in front of them.

(Kairos) "This question is only now appearing in my head, how exactly do they fight?"

(Elizabeth) "Now that you point it out, the only real weapon I see is on Musse's back. It appears to be some sort of...staff?"

They stared at the rifle that was strapped onto her, not sure what its function was.

(Kairos) "That makes sense, though it's shaped quite oddly. What's the point of that...lever, I think?"

Squinting at the triggerhair on Musse's rifle, he shook his head and turned to Lisa.

(Kairos) "And her. Everyone else from her group has a visible weapon, but she doesn't. All I see is a book."

(Elizabeth) "She could be a spellcaster, though what kind of magic user dresses like that?"

(Kairos) "Of course you judge them based on clothes."

(Elizabeth) "Oh stuff it! As if you're one to talk to ME about biases!"

Kairos and Elizabeth stood up, glaring daggers at each other.

(Kairos) "Hey, I was talking about their weapons!"

(Elizabeth) "And I'm talking about your little outburst earlier! Do you know how much you embarrassed all of us by-"

The went back and forth a little bit, Musse and Lisa pausing their conversation to listen.

(Musse) "How noisy."

(Lisa) "Well, we didn't find anything over here anyway, we might as well put a pause to it."

Towa watched them head towards Elizabeth and Kairos, and decided to watch what would happen instead of interfering. She knew Musse was a lot smarter than she looked, and Lisa seemed to be the same way.

(Towa) "So this is how Instructor Sara felt."

(Musse) "Is there a problem?"

(Elizabeth) "O-Oh, my apologies! No there isn't any problem."

(Kairos) "If you don't count her mouth as one."

(Elizabeth) "Silence yourself, or so goddess help me, I will silence yours!"

(Lisa) "My my, so feisty! You'll ruin those cute faces if you keep frowning so much."

That snapped Elizabeth and Kairos out of their spat and took them aback.

(Kairos) "C-Cute?"

(Elizabeth) "Feisty?!"

(Musse) "It seems no matter the world, people have the same reactions to these things..."

(Lisa) "It would appear so. It's nice having someone who understands, though."

Lisa and Musse smiled, making Kairos and Elizabeth feel slightly uncomfortable.

(Musse) "But back on topic, did you happen to find anything?"

(Kairos) "No, not really."

The two looked back down to the ground they were examining prior.

It was two trees that had snapped and fell to the ground, but there was no magical energy or weapon marks to indicate it had fell down by unnatural causes.

They were looking at the point where the tree snapped and fell over, hoping to find anything but-

(Elizabeth) "Kairos and I are well versed in magic, but we were unable to find anything that we could detect."

(Musse) "Hm...from what I see, there's nothing there either."

Lisa furrowed her brows as she gently pushed everyone to the side, taking a look herself.

(Kairos) "Miss Lisa?"

(Lisa) "...Instructor."

(Towa) "Huh? What is it?"

(Lisa) "I believe I found something."

(Elizabeth) "Truly?"

Towa walked over to the group and looked at the trees as well.

(Lisa) "I understand why no one has reported anything. This was caused by something from our group's world."

Everyone stood on edge.

(Lisa) "Our world has something we call 'Visions', powers granted to us by the Archons and allows us to attune ourselves to the elements and channel them into our will. Diluc and Amber have Pyro visions, letting them control fire. Kaeya has Cryo, Ice, Venti and Jean have Anemo, Wind. I, have Electro. Electricity."

Lisa rubbed her finger against the tree and looked at her finger.

(Lisa) "And on my hands is a very faint remnants of an Electro attack."

She stood up, grabbing her book.

(Lisa) "A very recent one."

Musse and Towa unsheathed their guns while Kairos and Elizabeth quickly looked around.

(Lisa) "I'm presuming you two cuties also wield magic?"

(Kairos) "Y-Yes. I'm proficient in dark magic skills."

(Elizabeth) "I am most skilled with white magic, but I am able to channel dark as well."

(Lisa) "Good. Because I think I know where our target is at."

Kairos and Elizabeth felt the hairs on their arms raise. The darkness of the forest started to glow with an eerie purple in the distance.

Towa got behind them and pulled out an ARCUS unit, calling Rean.

(Towa) "Rean, I think we found it! I'm sending our coordinates-"

A bolt of lightning shot down and almost hit her, making her scream and almost drop her unit.

(Towa) "AAH!"

(Rean's voice) "Towa?! Towa are you-"

BZZZZZRRRRT!

(Musse) "Target straight ahead!"

The cube slowly floated over to them, shooting out bolts of electricity in random directions.

(Musse) "I believe that first one was the warning shot the scouts were talking about."

(Kairos) "What the hell is that thing?!"

(Lisa) "Hmph. Nothing too dangerous, but still, don't let your guards down. We call it an Electro Hypostasis."

The shapes of the cubes floating around the core slowly shifted around, seemingly ready to change shapes at any time.

(Lisa) "It shapes itself into whatever it wants to attack, so be prepared for anything."

(Elizabeth) "You've fought these abominations before?!"

From Elizabeth's view, Lisa looked more annoyed than anything facing this...thing.

(Lisa) "A few times. They're normally docile until you approach, which makes Marianne's reports a lot more sense considering what's been harassing them."

The Cube seemingly stared at all of them, waiting to see if they would back off.

(Lisa) "I'm afraid my Electro vision isn't going to be as helpful as I'd like, but I won't let that stop me."

She flipped open her book, which began levitating in front of her.

The text in the book began to glow a dark purple as she turned to the group.

(Lisa) "But, I digress. The command is up to you, Instructor Towa."

(Towa) "If we let it go, it could be days before we can find it again, we don't let it slip away!"

Towa loaded her pistol and pointed at the Electro Hypostasis.

(Towa) "Engage the enemy!"

(Musse) "Understood, Instructor!"

(Elizabeth & Kairos) "Yes Ma'am!"

(Lisa) "Got it."

[Twice Stricken - Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers OST]

Musse backed up and pointed her rifle at the Hypostasis, taking the first shot.

The bullet predictably reflected off, and the four cubes flew into the air and into a rhombus shape, all aiming at the team.

Electric missiles shot out of the Hypostasis at speeds equivalent to Musse's and Towa's gun.

Lisa snapped her fingers and a electricity field formed around them, misdirecting the attacks and hitting in random directions.

Kairos and Elizabeth ran to the front, Kairos casting a fireball while Elizabeth had ice spikes form underneath it.

The first fireball caused a small explosion, blowing back some of the trees and scorching the grass while the ice spikes shot into the air and at the core of the Hypostasis, stopping the fire before it spread and piercing the core.

It made no noise of pain, though they could tell they were doing some damage to it.

The cubes quickly flew away from the spikes and towards them.

Towa fired her pistol, all aiming at a singular point the spike had pierced into.

Small bits of electricity chipped off, tho it began flying faster and dodged whatever was shot at it.

Lisa's spells were having no effect on the Hypostasis as it landed behind them.

(Lisa) "Get behind something!"

Musse and Towa dove for cover as more missiles shot out of it, Lisa standing behind a tree to hide from it.

Elizabeth did the same as well, but noticed Kairos wasn't moving.

Kairos stood out in the open still and tried to fire another fireball, but it quickly moved to the side, dodging the fireball as it hit the tree behind the Hypostasis instead.

The Hypostasis aimed at Kairos and shot a singular missile, too fast for him to dodge in time and hit him in the chest and sending him flying back into the tree.

He clenched his teeth in pain as the electricity rattled and sent a painful shock throughout his entire body.

(Elizabeth) "Kairos, you bloody idiot!"

She quickly grabbed his arm and dragged him behind cover before another barrage of missiles hit her.

(Elizabeth) "Why didn't you get into cover?!"

(Kairos) "Ach, thought I could hit it again!"

(Lisa) "It's not sentient enough to think creatively, but it's not stupid enough to fall for that again!"

Her brow furrowed further even more, knowing her spells would do nothing to it.

Musse poked her head out and pulled out her ARCUS unit, letting it analyze the Hypostasis.

(Musse) "Miss Lisa, your advice?"

(Lisa) "Keep hitting it with any elemental attack that isn't Electro-Er, thunder!"

(Musse) "Understood, taking the shot! Kairos, Elizabeth!"

Elizabeth stood out of the way of Musse's barrel as her rifle began glowing a hot red.

Pulling the trigger, a single shot hit the core, making it stagger back and form back into it's cube state.

As miniature cubes shot towards them from the excess electricity, Lisa stepped out to the open and shielded them from the bolts on the ground shooting out.

Towa rushed over to Kairos and loaded another round into her pistol, shooting it into the air.

Kairos suddenly felt the pain in his body slowly fade away and looked to Towa.

(Kairos) "Thank y-"

(Towa) "Do that later, right now they need your help!"

(Musse) "Instructor, get down!"

Towa and Kairos saw the three of them dive out the way.

Instinctually, Kairos grabbed Towa's shoulders and shoved her down to the floor as laser beams shot out and spun across the forest, it spinning rapidly as it vaporized the leaves into smoke.

The trees were getting burnt, but thankfully not chipped enough to topple over, Kairos saw.

Once it was done, Kairos rolled into the open and got on knee, adjusting his glasses as he raised his hand and clenched it.

From the skies above the Hypostasis, a burning rock crashed itself on the Hypostasis, knocking the cubes that formed the laser into pieces as the core stood out in the open.

(Lisa) "It's exposed, attack now!"

Elizabeth stood next to Kairos and swiped her hands downwards, the air forming a sword-like shape and slicing through the core, making it slightly shatter and pieces fall off.

Musse's rifle glowed white as it fired a straight line of ice, going through the core.

Towa did the same as her pistol began to glow several colors, red, then white, then red again.

Lisa made sure to keep an eye on any of the excess electricity in the air, flicking her wrist and deflecting a bolt of lightning without looking at it.

It quickly formed back into shape, and stood for a moment as the shots reflected off it.

(Elizabeth) "What is it doing now?!"

The cubes broke off into smaller ones, forming a giant arrow-shape and-

(Lisa) "To the sides, now!"

Lisa jumped back as the Hypostasis formed into a drill-like shape and began spinning towards them, tearing apart any trees that was in its way.

Towa and Musse ran to the sides while Kairos and Elizabeth ducked as it barreled past them.

The trees it knocked over were falling down left and right, Musse almost getting hit by one.

(Towa) "ABOVE YOU!"

Elizabeth looked up and realized a tree was falling on top of her.

Lisa raised her book and a concentrated spell shot out, the strength of it rushing it forward as it collided into more trees and away from everyone.

When Lisa turned her attention back to the Hypostasis, she realized it had formed two giant walls.

Lisa's eyes widened as she tried to brace herself for the shock, the walls closing on her and the force sending her into a tree.

Lisa's body tumbled onto the floor and out in the open, her vision going in and out from the attack.

(Kairos) "Lisa!"

The Hypostasis began to form it's drill shape again while Kairos and Elizabeth rushed to Lisa's defense, shooting whatever spell they could as it began flying to them.

Musse and Towa tried to help with their guns, but they were having no effect.

As it got closer, Kairos tried to pick up Lisa to move her, joined by Elizabeth as it got dangerously close to tearing through them.

Although there were no trees nearby for it to be a hazard, they still couldn't move fast enough with Lisa in hand to get out of the way safely.

(Familliar boy's voice) "COMING THROUGH KIDS!"

Kairos and Elizabeth were tackled by Kazuma while Aigis got in front of Lisa.

(Aigis) "ATHENA!"

Her Persona appeared in front of the drill, the shield failing to be pierced as Athena raised its hand, and knocked it to the side, toppling trees as it bounced through the ground.

Aigis spun around and gave Lisa a hand, which she grabbed it and was helped up.

Kazuma got up and dusted himself off.

(Elizabeth) "Instructor?"

(Kazuma) "Yeah yeah, you're welcome, now get your asses up, that cube thing will be doing the same!"

Kazuma unsheathed his sword, letting Elizabeth and Kairos get up on their own.

As the Hypostasis was getting up and about to change forms, before the core was shelled off, Jean and Venti jumped from the top of the trees and used their Anemo Visions.

Jean first blew it into the air while Venti summoned a mini tornado, picking up the core and shredding it with the speeds of the wind.

Diluc ignited his sword as he slammed it down into the tornado, setting the wind ablaze with the core still inside.

Kurt and Juna jumped in as the core hit the floor, Kurt's sword dicing it to pieces while Juna used the force of her tonfas to dent it, making electricity shoot out with each strike.

It quickly got itself up with the cubes forming once more, this time shifting into a giant fist.

It swung first into Kurt and Juna, sending them flying back into Towa and Musse.

Then it shapeshifted into a pair of scissors, making the Vision users duck under cover as it almost cut them into two.

It finally formed a giant rectangle, slamming down in front of them and sending them into the air.

As the core revealed itself while the three landed on their feet, Astrid and Kazuma swung their weapons into it, Astrid piercing through it while Kazuma slashed it in half with his sword.

Aigis, Musse, Towa, Elizabeth, and Kairos readied their guns and spells, all opening fire together while Astrid and Kazuma dodged out the way.

The final bullet went through it, the core now full of holes, it began to twitch violently as it split into pieces.

It split into three prisms as the core remained invisible in the center.

(Lisa) "Destroy those prisms!"

Juna switched her tonfas into a gunner mode and pulled the trigger, shooting one prism to tiny pieces.

Aigis's Persona smashed another prism into the floor, completely eradicating any trace of it.

Diluc's flaming sword shot out a bird-like shape, turning the prism into cinders as he made a wide swing.

With the last of the prisms gone, the core began to twitch violently as the group formed together.

Lisa got in front of everyone and held out her hands, casting another field to block out the electricity that exploded into a bright purple, the skies turning from white to a dark gray, then the clouds finally disappearing.

[Words to Believe In - Fire Emblem: Three Houses OST]

Towa's team tried to catch their breath.

(Musse) "Whew, that was close..."

(Towa) "Now I'm reminded why Rean's the combat instructor..."

(Lisa) "Nonsense, you did just fine-...Ugh!"

Lisa fell to one knee, Diluc catching her in time.

(Diluc) "Hey, are you alright?"

(Jean) "You took a bad hit from the looks of it."

Jean looked at her back and saw a bleeding wound, as well from her head.

(Elizabeth) "Miss Lisa, I'm so sorry! If you didn't have to take your at-"

Lisa waved her hand in a dismissive manner, smiling through the pain now the adrenaline was wearing off.

(Lisa) "Don't apologize, cutie. Ol' Lisa will be just fine."

Jean and Diluc slowly helped her up while Venti turned to them.

(Venti) "Honestly, not bad for your first time fighting it!"

(Musse) "Thank you. Without Lisa, I'm not sure what would have happened."

(Kairos) "Yes, we owe much of our victory today to her-"

(Kazuma) "Yadda yadda, stop being so humble. Just accept the compliment and move on. Besides, far as Fodlan kids fighting the unknown go, you two ain't half bad."

(Aigis) "Indeed. We were only able to see snippets of the fight, but despite your differences you came to work together rather well."

(Elizabeth) "Why...T-Thank you Instructors."

(Astrid) "Wow, no love for you Instructor Towa."

(Towa) "Oh come on now, don't make this a competition!"

The group began to back and forth, Astrid moving to Elizabeth and Kairos.

(Astrid) "So, what's your impression of 'em? Kazuma and Venti just argued a lot the entire time. Was pretty funny though."

(Elizabeth) "They're not as uncivilized as I was expecting to be honest."

(Kairos) "Psh, who's judging on character now?"

(Elizabeth) "Shut. Up. Already."

(Astrid) "And now I get to hear you guys argue. Ugh, great."

(Musse) "...Huh, where's Instructor Rean and the others?"

(Everyone) "..."

Towa pulled out her ARCUS unit again.

(Towa) "Rean?"

...

Everyone stiffened when they didn't hear a response.

(Towa) "Rean?!"

===

Rean, Sitri, Helena, Stefan, Kaeya, Amber, Altina, and Ash.

Rean was looking for any signs of an attack before hearing his ARCUS unit go off.

(Towa's Voice) "Rean, I think we found it! I'm sending our coordinates-AAH!"

(Rean) "Towa?! Towa are you-"

BZZZZZRRRRT!

(Sitri) "Did something happen?!"

(Rean) "Yeah, Towa's team found it! She sent us the coordinates so we need to-AAAGH!"

Rean fell to one knee, reaching for his head.

(Altina) "Instructor?!"

(Ash) "The hell's going-DAGH! SHIT!"

Ash stopped moving and reached for his head as well, followed by Altina, then the rest of the group one by one, their heads pounding as their vision suddenly faded to white.

…

[Out of Time - Final Fantasy XIV OST]

The inside of the room was glowing a faint blue-white, two green haired individuals walking through them, though one was significantly taller than the other.

(Flayn) "Father, are you sure this is the way?"

Seteth's face scrunched up as he stared at one of the crystals in his hand. The directions it was pointing to was hazy at best.

(Seteth) "No...No Flayn, I am not sure. But we have to try something at least."

Flayn looked behind her, worried.

(Flayn) "Of course..."

They stopped themselves to what appeared to be a massive doorway. Seteth held the stone up to it and the door slowly began to open, light pouring out from the other side.

The two were about to take a step through the door before a shot of electricity bolted over their heads.

Seteth quickly raised the crystal up, and it glowed a bright blue before whatever was shooting at them disappeared.

Inside the crystal was a dark purple fog before it quickly disappeared with a white flash.

(Flayn) "What was that?!"

(Seteth) "Something we weren't looking for. Perhaps the deeper we go into the tower, we'll be able to find it."

Saying nothing else, they looked around as moving platforms shifted around them.

Seteth and Flayn stepped onto them as everything turned into a static mess, slowly fading out of view...

…

[Spiderweb - Fire Emblem: Three Houses OST]

(Towa's voice) "Rean?"

...

(Towa's voice) "Rean?!"

Rean hazily reached for his ARCUS unit, responding to a very concerned Towa.

(Rean) "Agh, we're here!...I think."

Everyone looked at each other, the headache slowly subsiding.

(Kaeya) "What in the world was that?"

(Amber) "Ugh, my head!"

(Altina) "Is...is that supposed to happen naturally?"

(Helena) "Unless we're in extreme stress situations where our physical bodies are pushed to the limit, no."

(Stefan) "And considering we just started our assignment."

Sitri began speaking in her head.

(Sitri) Sothis...?

(Sothis) "Agh, don't worry, I felt it too...Though, wasn't that?-"

(Sitri) Seteth and Flayn...

(Sothis) "Doubt anyone else would know what they saw besides you and Rean."

(Sitri) What were they doing in the Tower, I thought we cleared it by now!

(Sothis) "I have no idea, but we have to tell this to the other instructors."

(Rean) "...And that was the end of that...vision? Or something. I'm still not sure."

(Towa's Voice) "...Understood. Let's meet back up at Marianne's and tell her that we finished the job."

(Rean) "Roger that. And Towa? Good work."

(Towa's voice) "Heh, um...thank you."

Rean hung up the call and motioned for everyone to follow, everyone still out of it from whatever it was they saw.

Later...

(Aigis) "A vision?"

(Kazuma) "Holy shit, Seteth and Flayn are alive?!"

(Sitri) "Possibly? I'm not sure..."

(Rean) "It's still blurry in my head, and I'm sure the others agree."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

(Towa) "We should investigate once we get back, but..."

[Where the Heart is - Final Fantasy XIV OST]

(Towa) "I'm glad we were able to help out, Marianne!"

(Marianne) "Thank you so much for your assistance. As always, you're always rescuing us from dangers."

Marianne smiled and bowed.

(Rean) "Of course. If there's any other troubles, please call upon us to help if you need it."

(Sitri) "Thank you for your kindness."

(Marianne) "And as requested, we have the railroads to take you back to Garreg Mach. It should be a day's trip.

(Juna) "Man, it just feels like went to a different country instead of a world with how familiar it is..."

(Amber) "What's a railroad?"

(Musse) "Oh, you see it's-..."

Class VII and the Knights began engaging in a friendly banter, which gave Kazuma to groan.

(Kazuma) "A train?! Why the hell are we taking a train when we can teleport?!"

Sothis appeared for a brief moment when she made sure no one was looking in their direction.

(Sothis) "We'll explain it later, but for now just shut up and deal with it."

Rean and Towa laughed while Aigis had a smirk.

Kazuma was ready to cuss out Sothis before the students approached them.

(Kairos) "Instructors? I...would like to apologize for my earlier outburst-"

(Rean) "Don't sweat it."

(Kairos) "Huh?"

(Towa) "To be fair, it IS a little strange for a bunch of people to pop out of portals like this and boss you around. But that being said, we are your instructors for a reason!"

(Kazuma) "Some respect goes a long way, kid!"

(Astrid) "You look as old as we do..."

(Kazuma) "And YOU shutting up can go a long way!"

Aigis slapped the back of his head and nodded.

(Aigis) "Apologies for him. Although he is right to some degree. We are happy to be your instructors, no matter what we have done in the past."

(Stefan) "I look forward to your guidance, Instructors!"

(Elizabeth) "As do I. I will make the Blue Lions proud for having me as their chosen!"

(Helena) "Hear that Astrid? You shutting up means they'll like you more."

Astrid gently punched Helena in the shoulder, Helena's expression being deadpan from the delivery to the literal punchline.

(Astrid) "Same goes for you, smartass."

Marianne approached the Garreg Mach students and looked at Kairos.

(Marianne) "You've grown up so much despite the fact it's only been a few years. I hope in the future we can have a moment to talk, so we can catch up!"

(Kairos) "A-As do I Lady- Er, I mean...Marianne."

Marianne's smile made him unable to look at her in the eye and she turned to Sitri.

(Marianne) "It's right this way. Follow me everyone."

And in a few moments, the members of House Isekai stepped onto a train that took them to Garreg Mach, Marianne waving goodbye to everyone...

...

BING, BING BING BING, BONG!

[Life at Garreg Mach Monastery - Fire Emblem: Three Houses OST]

Today's instructions were done for the day, the doors being opened as students and guards went from position to position.

A good number of students went to their dorms while many others went into the mess hall.

Guards piloted massive Knight mechs out of the hangar and towards the Gates, practicing military drills and simply standing guard for any potential threats.

Kairos, Elizabeth, Astrid, Helena, and Stefan walked out their respective classrooms and towards the Hangar.

(Helena) "Last day of hanging with the Golden Deer...Can't say I'll miss them too much."

(Astrid) "I will a little, I was FINALLY getting used to the schedule!"

Kairos shrugged.

(Kairos) "It's not like we'll never see them again. We're still attending the same Academy."

(Stefan) "I'm a bit sad I can't hang out with my friends as much, but I guess that's the nature of an Officer's academy."

(Elizabeth) "Well think of it this way, we now have a new opportunity to go down in history!...Even though our instructors are those offworlders."

(Helena) "I still can't tell, do you like them or not?"

The banter went back and forth a few more times as they moved to the hangar.

The Imperial soldier in front nodded to them and let them pass.

(Stefan) "Oh, Kairos."

(Kairos) "Hm?"

(Stefan) "Your data from the fight with that...cube thing is recorded on your crystal right?"

(Kairos) "Yeah. What about it?"

(Stefan) "You should send that to the rest of us, so we can see everyone's fighting style."

(Helena) "Oh yeah, we didn't get to fight during that."

(Kairos) "Sure, one second."

Kairos took out his communication crystal and let it connect with Astrid, Stefan, and Helena's.

Stefan nodded and smiled.

(Stefan) "Thanks, I'm pretty excited to see what they can do!"

(Elizabeth) "Soon enough, we'll get to know how they are-"

(Recette's voice) "Yoohoo, over here!"

The five stopped once they saw Recette waving over to them excitedly.

(Tear) "Welcome. Your quarters are now finished."

(Astrid) "Dam-Er, Dang, it's only been like 3 days, and you're already finished?"

(Recette) "Yup! There's nothing that blood, sweat and heckuva lotta gold can't accomplish!"

(Tear) "The wonders of capitalism."

(Helena) "...Capi-what?"

(Tear) "Nevermind. This way, your instructors are currently in a meeting but everyone else is waiting for you in the room.

The five followed Recette and Tear into their barracks into an elevator, going below the hangar and storage floor...

Garreg Mach's Listening Chamber...

(Sitri) "The other team contacted me and let us know their task is done. They're currently on their way back on the railway and should be back within the hour."

(Towa) "It's crazy to know Slayer sent Elliot, Fie, and Laura to us!"

(Rean) "Duvalie being with them is sure going to make her a lot more irritable."

(Kazuma) "She seems like a bitch."

(Towa) "That's putting it lightly..."

(Aigis) "Regardless, it is good to have reinforcements backing us up."

(Rean) "...Valimar, can you confirm signatures of anyone else present in Fodlan?"

Valimar's voice echoed out of his ARCUS unit.

(Valimar) "...Affirmative. It would appear some of the Persona Users are present as well."

(Aigis) "Really?!"

(Valimar) "Ryuji Sakamoto, Ann Takamaki, Mitsuru Kirijo, and Naoto Shirogane, according to my scans."

(Kazuma) "How come no one else has reported this?"

(Towa) "Yeah, that is pretty weird..."

(Valimar) "I am still scanning, so I am unable to tell where they are. Analysis would take a day or so."

(Rean) "Just keep us updated Valimar."

(Valimar) "Of course. Speaking of which, it seems Duvalie's group is about to arrive."

(Rean) "Let's go ahead and meet them then."

The instructors nodded and left before Sitri's Crystal began beeping.

(Sitri) "Hold on, I have to take this. I'll be with you soon."

The four left Sitri and Sothis alone as Sitri opened it up, revealing a small reflection of Edelgard.

(Sitri) "Edelgard?"

(Edelgard) "Hello, Sitri. With the official reformation of House Isekai, we would like to assign your tasks for this month, as it was done when we were enrolled."

(Sothis) "So...why are you calling just by yourself?"

(Edelgard) "And that is my next point..."

...

As the train approached the station, Stefan saw Rean and the other instructors meet up with the rest of the group.

(Stefan) "...Even more of the offworlders."

He looked to see no one was watching him, and slowly snuck away from the group.

Everyone was distracted meeting Rean's friends to notice Stefan had disappeared into a corner.

Stefan looked at his crystal and saw the recording of Kairos and Elizabeth fighting the...whatever the hell it was.

Though, he was honestly glad no one was hurt.

He tweaked his communication crystal by turning a dial to the left and pressing in a specific combination with the buttons on it.

And with that, a voice popped up on the other side.

(Distorted Voice) "There are you. Goddess, we thought something happened. Status?"

(Stefan) "I'm fine, don't worry. And something did. House Isekai has returned."

(Distorted Voice) "...Say that again, it sounded like you said House Isekai."

(Stefan) "I did say House Isekai. It's the White Cloud Contingency."

(Distorted Voice) "...Keep your eye on them. And be careful. We all saw what happened to the poor bastards who underestimated them seven years ago."

(Stefan) "Understood. And you all be careful as well."

(Distorted Voice) "Godspeed."

Stefan nodded and hung up. He slowly blended back into the crowd and saw Kairos looking in his direction.

(Kairos) "Hey, there you are!"

(Helena) "That armor slowing you down or something?"

(Astrid) "I told you guys to wait up, he was falling behind!"

(Stefan) "Hah, yeah I got lost. This place is huge!"

(Elizabeth) "Goodness gracious, just speak up Stefan! Anyways, what do you think of Instructor Rean's colleagues?"

(Helena) "...I like that grey-haired one."

(Kairos) "Of course you would."

[Lost in Paradise - ALI]

(Stefan) "...Hmph."

He breathed in and out to calm himself.

(Stefan) No matter what happens, even with them here, they can't interfere...Fodlan HAS to be free from this rule!
