#Travelling Partner

shen yuan and bingge deserve be adventuring buddies . I need binghe bumping into shen yuan on his way to get wife plot cure #734 and allowing shen yuan to join him because he's bored. binghe finding a treasure trove and readying xin mo to kill the man accompanying him because shen yuan is no doubt coveting the gold and planning to betray binghe. binghe pointing his sword at shen yuan's back and finding him looking at historic murals and copying them down in his notebook. shen yuan says this is exactly what he was looking for and binghe quickly sheathes his sword before shen yuan closes his journal and turns around.

shen yuan: travelling with the protagonist shouldnt be too dangerous as long as I don't piss him off, right? besides there are so many mechanisms in pidw that only open for Binghe... i could spend years looking for artifacts that Binghe can stumble across in a day!

binghe is constantly seeking out some rare plant or trying to complete a quest. shen yuan is trying to explore pidw as much as possible because the world building is actually really good. they find themselves on the same trail so often, one day shen yuan just wakes up in his inn room to binghe standing over him saying "wake up, I'm going to the northern territories today." while Shen Yuan is screaming because why are you in my room!?

Usually Binghe prefers to do things solo but Shen Yuan isn't an unwelcome change of pace... for one thing he's not always slowing him down and can defend himself. for another he's... weirdly loyal to binghe. a bandit group ambushes them one day and shen yuan almost dies defending binghe. (binghe makes sure the entire organization is wiped out)

Binghe's wife: if the two of us don't find [wife plot artifact] I'll die! we must set out immediately!

Binghe: you stay here. I'll go

Her: But the legend says it needs two people or it wont reveal itself

Binghe: yeah I've got someone to go with

Her: ... hello????? this is supposed to be my romantic adventure ??????

Since the travelers are the ones looping: Does Isa have a side quest with Sif where Siffrin invites him into their cloak tent and they read and have tea and talk about Sif's research? And Isa absolutely cannot deny that he's gone from a crush to head over heels within the time loops and that this is a Problem now?

A-huh! Big time. Big, super major time. Traveler!Isa did his best to keep everyone at arms length while they were traveling to collect the orbs needed to open the House's doors. Of course Isabeau was always friendly and loved spending time with the gang (especially Sif) but he was already preparing himself for the separation and wanted to be kind by not getting too deep into the relationships, y'know? But being stuck in a timeloop means Isa could... test the waters with the safety net of "nothing sticking for real" Which of course backfires in the only way it could: Isa's crush turns into something akin to a wildfire getting whipped into a tornado and it's consuming him WHOLE. XD

Ladies don't travel to another country with a man if your legal status is uncertain. If you do hold onto your passport and make sure your ticket isn't a one way.

Exit trafficking: Western Sydney man abandons his wife overseas after she fell out with his mum

Western Sydney man convicted over 'exit trafficking'

He took his wife abroad, but only he had a return ticket

By PADRAIG COLLINS FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA

PUBLISHED: 06:40 EDT, 27 June 2024 

A western Sydney man who abandoned his wife overseas after she fell out with his mother has been convicted over what is known as 'exit trafficking'. 

It is a type of modern slavery where women are tricked or coerced into leaving a country, in this case Australia, and prevented from returning.

The 44-year-old man, who lives in Merrylands in Sydney's south-west, took his wife on 'a charity mission' to their home country of Afghanistan in January 2018, police said.

But the man, known as AR to protect his family, only had a return ticket for himself. His wife did not realise that her ticket was one-way to Afghanistan. 

The day after he returned to Australia, AR wrote to the Department of Home Affairs, cancelling the sponsorship of his wife's visa, the Sydney Morning Herald reported.

He did so because his mum didn't like his wife, and it resulted in the woman he had been married to for four years being stranded overseas.

The woman's relatives helped get her back to Australia, where she reported her husband to the police.  

AR's conviction last Friday was the third such exit trafficking conviction in Australia.

He was sentenced to two years jail with 12 months of it to be served in the community on a good behaviour bond.

Human rights activist Helena Hassani said there has been an increase in such oppression of women, often in migrant communities, in Australia.

While there are many cases involving men from Afghan and other migrant communities taking their wives abroad and leaving them there, she said there are also many cases where 'Aussie men marry women from Asia, bring them here, but marry them into servitude, or treat them like sex workers'.

Many women, such as AR's wife, are only in Australia on partner visas, leaving them reliant on their husband's sponsorship to stay in the country.

Some women in these communities are discouraged from using money, getting an education or working outside the home because the men want a 'servant'.

'It's a cultural practice where the less educated women are, the happier men are, because then no one is challenging them, no one is confronting them, and they just live the way they want to live,' Ms Hassani told the publication.

Acting Detective Sergeant Sarah Manning of the Australian Federal Police (AFP) said exit trafficking often goes unreported.

No one has the right to 'cancel' another person's visa, including the visa sponsor,' she said. 

'This type of behaviour is a Commonwealth offence and carries a potential 12-year jail term.'

The first exit-trafficking conviction was in 2021, when a man from Lidcombe in western Sydney threatened to murder a woman unless she boarded a flight to India with her infant child.

The horrific interaction was captured on Sydney Airport's CCTV after the anti-human trafficking group Anti Slavery Australia told the AFP what happened.

Anyone with information about potential modern slavery or trafficking is urged to report it to Australian Federal Police on 131 237.

The complete set

The timeline after the hero of time is split into three

And we know for sure that twilight is related to time

But because sheik x link x Malon is a ship that the fandom has quite a bit of content for and people theorized that legend is a part of the royal family

Let’s add him as well as related to time lol (and by extension as related to sky)

Why..

Because it would be very cursed and therefore hilarious (two kids from different timelines that the parents happily share together)

Because that makes any interaction with lullaby and Malon very cursed

Malon was understanding off timeline differences and after finding out about her children / descendants

She was happy to let legend be part of her family(he was absolutely not crying about it at all when she said he was welcome any day)

lullaby was insisting that legend can stay if he wants

Because his life sounds like a crime she has to fix

Because any member of the royal family would be accepted as a heir

Then proceeds to straight up make it official no matter how many laws of nature it breaks (she already broke enough of those so what’s a few more…)

Twilight was also happy to have lots of parental figures

And wind was considered as adoption bait for a while because they wanted the full set of the hero of time successors

And then also dragged along only not officially adopted because he had warriors who very much wanted to stay parent lol

The entire trio is just so casual about their secret kids that apparently came out of nowhere but are actually genuinely real

Like

Lullaby: “yeah this is My son and I was totally hiding him .. but no longer with it now he is officially part of the royal family.. no time travel or anything”

Malon: “and I also have a son he also was totally being hidden as well… they’re both our sons …. No other reason you haven’t seen them like ever””

Talon : “I really don’t know how that happened but I guess I have grandchildren now”

Time was just chilling as it went down and was relishing in the chaos that the public brought

He was born to be cryptic his entire existence was based around it

He is a fairy child at heart lol

thinking about travelling partners binggeyuan again... bingge staying on alert at night pretending to be asleep because surely shen yuan is also feigning sleep in order to catch him unaware, right? there's no way this man just.. fell asleep a few feet away from the violent demon emperor. he has to be faking this whole "friendly stranger" act in order to lower binghe's guard and then attack.

after they've gone on a few trips together binghe starts viewing shen yuan as a trustworthy companion. One day shen yuan says "I know your birthday is next week but I won't be able to get you alone at your celebration.. here's an artifact that can help you handle xin mo but it breaks after one use so keep it around for when there's no one to uh.. help you during a qi deviation."

bingge falling in love: join my harem

shen yuan: pfft! jokes aside you really shouldnt add a person to your harem the second they do something nice for you! it's great you want to give these women a home and security, but people can take advantage of you that way!

binghe, falling even harder: you ... you're worried about someone taking advantage of me?

Tate Pines AU: Reminisce II

Stan: Do you remember anything from back then?

Tate: ...What is it with you and scientists?

Stan: What?

Tate: ...

FLASHBACK Tate, 3-years-old: *playing with night-vision googly-eye glasses* Rick: So you're a dad too now, huh? Stan: Mhm. Rick: Welcome to the club- he's not mine is he? Stan: Naw, he's too young. Not like it'd make a difference; you'd still run off. Rick: Clearly said to be hurtful, but you're not wrong. END FLASHBACK

Tate: Is tall, gangly inventors with questionable morals your type?

Stan: I don't need to hear this from you *looking away*

Tate: Me, the proof?

What are the lengths you'd go to bring back the dead?

[smilepebble]

pmd game but instead of the hero and partner having a home base of some sort, they're more nomadic... major plot beats would happen in the various towns they stop in... lots of focus on the different sights around the continent... it's about the journey not the destination etc...
