#5: Putting Out Fires

Prompt: Stamp

The early evening’s dying light streamed in through a large window, illuminating Illian’s workroom in a soft coral glow and casting shadows as it caught on the various magitek parts and enchanting materials strewn about every surface. He had already lit the work lamp on his desk, though he knew that soon the entire room would be dark save for that one little bubble of space if he didn’t take a break from his project to see the wall sconces lit. Sighing, he rose to do just that, striding over to the wall and flicking a wall switch next to the door. The sconces flared to life with a soft, yellow-white arcane glow, courtesy of the connection that the switch made to the crystals housed within, and soon enough Illian was sitting back down in front of the small machine he had taken apart to repurpose.

This little heating unit was mostly done, and with fall’s cooler weather fast approaching, he wanted to get this installed as soon as he could. He’d been making sure the new suite of rooms that Rath had ordered prepared for his new bodyguard were in working order, and unfortunately, the temperature control unit had had to wait until he could source more of the airship controls. He’d never outright made them before, but he knew how to modify them to handle arcane energies from crystals rather than their ceruleum. As he brought his welding gun close to the bottom casing, the door flying open caused him to jump and nearly singe his pants as he dropped it. He hastily grabbed a towel and dropped it onto a small patch of rug that had caught fire as he turned the gun off, and then stomped the towel to ensure the fire was out before glowering in the direction of the interruption.

“Do you mind? I was nearly done with–” he cut himself off when he saw that not only was it M’rath who’d stormed in, but he had a look on his face that was perturbed, which was unlike him. “Whoa. What’s wrong?”

“I had to put him down,” the Miqo’te began. “As soon as I got into his head he latched on and I couldn’t get out.”

After setting the welding gun back on his worktable, Illian came over to stand in front of his employer and best friend, laying his hands gently on the other’s shoulders. They were tense, as he expected, and he tried to send calming energy Rath’s way as he worked his thumbs gently against the muscles there. He knew how the man got when he was in this specific mindset, and to have it turned on its head and directed back at him… He couldn’t imagine how badly that had probably messed with Rath’s mind.

“If you would like, I could draw you a bath… or perhaps you would like to see your partners? I’m sure they would love to hear from you.” Illian fixed his bright blue eyes on Rath’s green-and-golds, and the pair stared at each other for a moment. He couldn’t really read what was going on in Rath’s head right now–but then, he wasn’t the one with that sort of power, anyway.

“I…” The emotions that passed through his expression were uncharacteristic of him to show. Worry. Discomfort. A sort of vulnerability he’d only seen a handful of times. “I do not wish to bother them with this. I am not in the best mindset to be good company for them.”

Illian just sighed. Of course M’rath would not want them to see him in this state. Especially not after the activities he’d been partaking in just a short time before. Still, this was as much a part of the man as all the others, and what sort of friend would Illian be if he couldn’t call him out on that?

“You do realize,” he began, “that this sort of thing is precisely something they would want you to talk to them about?”

Rath’s hands curled into fists at his side, his knuckles going white, and Illian wondered if he’d have bloody nail marks in his palms when he relaxed them again. “I know,” he ground out. “I just…”

“Call and see if they’re available,” Illy replied firmly. “Do not shut them out. You will come to regret it if you do.”

When the Miqo’te looked into Illian’s face again, there was something else in his eyes that Illian hadn’t seen in a good, long while. Guilt.

“I would not be surprised if they refuse, it has been too long” he said, his voice quiet. “I just need someone steady right now. An hour, and I will be fine.”

Illian glanced back at his work table and the nearly finished control unit, and then back at M’rath, who still looked a bit rattled. “Fine. But you’re calling on them tomorrow. I know you’ve been busy with your quarterly visits, but you’re nearly done with them now. Come, let’s go relax.”

As he led his friend from his workroom to Rath’s quarters, he tried to think reassuring thoughts. M’rath was not a bad person. His manifestation of the Echo had never treated him kindly, and sometimes when he picked up a new guest, their crazy seeped into his mind a little more than it should. Rath had spectacular impulse control, and he’d never acted on any of his borrowed neuroses, which always managed to impress the half-elezen. Regardless of how he felt about the torture that Rath put his guests through, it was the only way that the man had found to cope with his own traumas, and Illian couldn’t begrudge him that. Especially when his guests were the worst sorts of people, and deserved every mindfuck they got.

As he settled in a lounging position on Rath’s bed, he waited for the Miqo’te to lay down beside him before pulling his head onto his thigh and massaging his scalp.

“They do, don’t they?” Rath asked, his voice wavering a bit as he relaxed into the touch and curled in toward Illian.

“Mmm?”

“Deserve it.”

“You were listening in, were you?” Illian asked with a little smile, and then allowed his thoughts to become more intentional.

You are not a monster. You are loved. And you are doing everyone a service by taking out the trash.

The silence following those thoughts was heavy with hesitation, and Illian calmly reached over to Rath’s nightstand and found the remote he’d made for the room’s orchestrion. Clicking it on, he set it to play one of Rath’s favorite calming piano pieces. It wasn’t until the Miqo’te began to melt against him that he responded, sounding tired and only half-convinced.

“I am not a monster,” he repeated. “I am doing a service.”

“You are,” Illian agreed aloud. “Unless you’re trying to cook. You do no one a service, then.”

He didn’t even know where the pillow came from, only that it flew into his face with a decent amount of force, and he grabbed it before it could get away so that he could smack Rath back with it. “Excuse me, I did not deserve that!”

M’rath’s mind suitably diverted from the horrors he’d been subjected to before, Illian kept bantering with him until he fell asleep, and then tucked him in and crept out of the room. 

He was lucky that Illian was the kind of friend who would absolutely dispose of a body.

Drawn

for @efkgirldetective's summer of jily, prompt #5 - activity: stargazing.

---

She’s tried not to spend the whole evening just watching him. A challenge, but she’s always liked a challenge, and this feels like one of the biggest she’s faced. Don’t stare at James Potter. Don’t let yourself be drawn back into that orbit.

The thing is, she likes it. She finds herself seeking him out, now, sitting with him in the common room or ambling down to Quidditch practice at his side or sitting opposite him in the Great Hall, where she can look right into those beguiling hazel eyes and let that smile warm her to the tips of her fingers.

Yeah. She’s pretty far gone.

But she’d usually rather be there, with him but apart from him, than try to fight that pull, try to push back against whatever it is that’s deep inside her, desperate for his attention. She has never wanted to be that kind of girl, and especially not with him, but here she is, finding herself willing to do just about anything if it means he looks at her again and talks to her again.

Exams finished this morning, and the seventh years were given a later curfew to celebrate the occasion. The Gryffindors piled out of the Great Hall after lunch, collapsed in a heap by the lake, and had barely moved since, basking in the sun, brains overwhelmed, eyes hazy with exhaustion. At one point, moved by a sudden burst of energy, James had leapt up, stripped down to his boxers and raced Sirius into the cool, murky waters. Lily had allowed herself a minute or two of watching, as covertly as she could under the wide brim of her sunhat, admiring the way the droplets snaked down his torso, the way his muscles flexed and eased as he grappled with his best friend, cackling with glee.

She pretended to read her book for five minutes, then idled over to the shallows, lifting the hem of her dress to stand with Remus, taking in the scene as if she hadn’t been watching intently not that long ago. It was all a careful dance, this, being around him, hoping to catch his attention but not be seen to be doing it all at the same time. She even laced her fingers through Remus’ at one point, laughing just a little bit louder than she needed to at what he had said.

James didn’t look over.

FFxivWrite 2021 Prompt 5: Badness

“And now remember.. you do not tell Momma about this, alright?”

The roegadyn gave a playfully stern stare down from that one eye at the two-year old, getting several head bobbled nods and a giggle in reply. She holds a finger up to her lips before taking a cookie that was big even by her standards and bending it in half. Even divided, it was massive, sugary, and filled with sweet chunks of chocolate that the young boy had no business having. Most of all given it was about a bell away from dinner time and Sana already had the meal cooking. But tiny hands soon held their prize all the same.

The young geko’te immediately shoves as much of the cookie into his mouth as he can manage before gnawing away, only giggling a little through his chewing. As he works his way through that mouthful of pre-dinner dessert the boy takes to a broad, puffy cheeked grin and starts wiggling around and bouncing his arms through a simple little dance. One that his sea wolf mother immediately recognizes as the ‘I am getting away with being bad’ dance and can’t help but smile at it, at least this once.

Pirates are born to break the rules, after all.

Wumptober Day 5: Failed Escape (Kiera Snow)

Whumptober: @thethistlegirlwrites @linariouswrites @doubi-ixi​

Dragon art under cut

Kiera had freed her ankles and was just waiting for the moment the guards were just distracted enough to let her get out and find the others. The changing of the guards was a very careful dance. There were always eyes on the high risk, charismatic prisoner who still pretended she was still bound. Except one of the guards was still inexperienced. 

Kiera stood and opened the door smoothly, slipping into the shadows the instant his eyes were turned. She crept along the halls as quickly as she dared. She knew it wouldn’t be long before it was found out she had left. 

She turned a corner and could smell Laurance just ahead. She stepped up to the cell and peered in. Laurance was bound, gagged, and blindfolded. The bad guys were always so much more careful with semni than with anything else. 

Kiera opened the door and stepped in, hiding carefully in the shadows in the corner. It didn’t sound like anyone was looking for her yet. She turned her attention back to Laurance who had tilted his ears towards her and pulled his bound legs to his chest a little tighter. 

Kiera stepped across the room and reached behind his head to pull the blindfold off. Laurance flinched away as she did and opened his eyes as she reached for the gag. His eyes widened in panic. Kiera pulled his gag out, making his muffled words clear. “Trap!”

Kiera turned as three guards jumped her from seemingly behind the walls. Laurance lashed out with his legs, tripping one and Kiera smashed her palm into the face of the guard coming on her right. The left one stepped over the man Laurance tripped and swung at Kiera. She ducked down with a hiss and pushed off into his stomach, using Laurance’s knees as an axis to trip the guard. The man who had been the first to go down reached out his hand and hissed something in a strange language. Kiera went down with a choked cry as he managed to cast Hold Person on her. 

The three men stood over her as she lay on her side, unable to move. 

Laurance was silent as the guard hoisted Kiera up to take her back to her cell. She did hear his muffled shout of pain as she was being led down the hall. The mage was gagging him again and probably getting some payback for getting tripped up first thing when the scuffle started. Kiera knew she'd receive some pain as well, for causing the guards so much trouble. So much trouble for a failed escape.

Prompt #5 - Matter of Fact

Dear Fairwind Family,

By now, you’ve most certainly been made aware of my absence. It wasn’t that I wanted to steal away in the middle of the night without proper goodbyes but I felt that it would be easier for all parties involved. My decision to leave is not based on any resentment towards any of you. If anything, I hold you all very dear to my heart and our connection through blood means that we are never truly separated. No matter the distance between us, I will always be thinking of you and home. 

The fact of the matter is that I could no longer live a lie. The expectations that I’ve always felt were being imposed upon me were not ones that I had chosen for myself. As much as everyone assumed I was meant to live the quiet life in the village, much like my mother and grandfather, that was never further from the truth.

 I am also my father’s daughter and my grandmother’s kin. Both were wanderers that appreciated the ties and warmth that came from living in our community. They were embraced even though they were outsiders and contributed so many happy memories for us all. My desire to see the world is not a reflection of you but I do not have it in me to be a fisherman’s wife. The world is so vast and filled with so many marvels that I wish to see. Mysteries that I want to unravel and people I want to meet. I want to taste new foods and see new sights. I want to learn all there is about things outside of the village. I want to grow, like wildflowers that spread across the hills despite the adversities they face. This isn’t a goodbye. I promise you that I will come back and visit. My home will always be with you all and as long as you are there, so will my heart. What allowance I can make, I will send back to help with the expenses of the cottage. I apologize for any inconvenience that it’s upkeep might entail but I wouldn’t trust its care to anyone else.

With all my love as I step into the great unknown,

Alysia Fairwind

See you say it’ll be fine? But, something tells me it won’t be.

This is a family-friendly establishment, sir.     

Wait, do you not have any money? 

Plastic isn’t food. 

It’s so early, please stop. 

Could you blink, or something? You’re starting to freak me out. 

Those squirrels look like they’re doing something shifty. 

You haven’t moved in hours. 

I have opinions of my own - strong opinions - but I don’t always agree with them.  

I’m not dumb. I just have a command of thoroughly useless information. 

Someone drew a dick in my textbook. 

You really have that ‘I don’t know how I fit into the world’ vibe about you. 

This is not what I asked for. 

You look like you need someone to talk to. 

Have you had a bit too much to drink?

Day Book #23

Prompt #5

There were many learning moments throughout this trip. My very first learning moment here was figuring out the conversion of the pound to the US dollar. I learned that for every pound that I spend it is equal to one dollar and thirty-three cents, which was difficult to get at first. Once I understood the conversion, I was able to budget the trip better. I also thought about how it must be more difficult to come here from any other country besides America or ones that use the Euro, because the pound is worth so much. The next big learning moment I had was the medicine here. I had really bad allergies when I got here and didn’t think to bring allergy medicine. I went to Boots to get allergy medicine, but there was no normal allergy medicine there, just some generic Boots medicine. I eventually found one that would work, because I had to read all the ingredients. If I hadn’t been able to speak English then I would have been out of luck. I also learned how to get around the city of London, which to me is a big accomplishment. I don’t normally pick up directions or figuring out how to get from place to place very well. I finally got the hang of the tube the second week we were here and I never felt more proud of myself before. I got myself and a small group of people to Camden town and to SoHo without any help. The way people are around here and the little things they do differently from Americans was very hard to get used to as well. Like how they like to stop randomly in the middle of a walkway or how they are very quiet talkers, which I am not, or how they say “take-away” instead of “take-out” or “to-go”. None of these are major issues, but in order to fit in a little bit you needed to learn these little things they do, which I have. The hard part now will be to stop doing it once I get back to the States. The majority of my learning moments were me getting used to the way things are done around here, but this one is not like that and is probably the biggest learning moment I have had all trip. This trip I learned so much more about who I am as a person, than I have doing anything else in my life. I wont go into what I found out, but this trip, the classes, these people have shown me who I truly am and that is what I am thankful for the most.
