I NEED to rant about Revelations rq

The physical FACT that this game is about Ezio's end of his era and Altaïr's story smashed into our faces at the same time, MOST OF THE GAMEPLAY GOING TOWARDS GETTING THE MEMORIES/MASYAF KEYS so Ezio could learn about his ancestor, and they couldn't even put MALIK IN THE GAME. NOT ONE CAMEO OR MENTION.

He was Altaïr's BEST FRIEND(maybe rocky bc of their rivalry and Altaïr's bullshit) BUT THEY MADE UP AND BECAME CLOSER IM SURE.

It's not even because they were lazy to get his v/a or anything his VA LITERALLY PLAYS PRINCE SULEIMAN AND THEY COULDNT EVEN HAVE HIM REPRISE HIS ROLE??????

UBISOFT I HATE YOU WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST GIVE US OUR MALIK FANSERVICE. Hes like one of the best characters from a single game, such development and depth in a character is almost impossible now. BRING MY MAN BACK.

I'm salty and it's my snow day so fuck you

Complete - Nostalgia

Eziony Auditore and Kadar Alsayf

As I was finishing this, I thought i might put some of the other’s characters into the background, but oh boy, that sounded like a lot of work that I did not want to put into this nostalgic piece.

I’ve also realised I have very little idea of what the current usernames of the others are. I am pretty sure on a few of them, but not 100%. I just hope they see this and remember ;3

If Ubisoft does not bring back Haaz Sleimen to voice Malik Al-Sayf I will commit arson.

Allow me to list out why they need to:

He came out as Gay in 2017 (another reason to confirm Altmal you cowards. You know he would be all for it.)

Literally gave life to the character and portrayed the emotions of Malik so fucking well. You already did us dirty in Revelations by not having us see him at all nor mention him more then once. Don’t fucking test the gays and trans Ubisoft.

While also being the voice actor, he was also the face model for Malik. Imagine the potential of seeing the facial expression of rage on Malik in HD (I’m shaking)

Ohh,nice request,dear~

Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad

He’s never heard of such a bizarre game before

‘Pocky’ game,huh?

What’s it about?Pocky sounds like something a little girl would name their puppy

So what’s with these chocolate sticks?

When his S/O explains the concept of the said game,he raises an eyebrow,slightly surprised

As his S/O puts the pocky between their lips,he’d sigh at his S/O’s childishness

But would bite the other end of the pocky,with a slight smirk 

*munch munch munch* 

He’d totally put his hand on the back of his S/O’s head and kiss them passionately 

Leaving them shocked 

Totally up to it!

Malik Al'Sayf 

He finally has some free time away from work 

So he decides to go to the calm forest,and read a nice book under a tree,enjoying the chill atmosphere and wind carressing his skin 

And munching absent-minded on a pocky stick 

Unaware that his S/O was jumping around in the trees from the same forest he was in 

But when they notice him,they smirk and giggle mischievously 

Quite and swiftly getting on the branch above him 

And swung upside down,being eye-level to a shocked Malik 

They start to munch on the other end of the pocky 

With an annoyed eye twitch and the ghost of a smile,Malik does the same 

Then kisses his S/O gently

Before flicking their forehead 

“What a Novice you are…”

Ezio Auditore da Firenze 

He heard of Pocky before,but he didn’t know much about them 

They’re some sweets,right? 

But when he sees his S/O munching at the end of a Pocky,a lightbulb appears above his head. 

As S/O is fiddling absent-minded with their phone,he comes in front of them and lowers their hands slowly 

Then bites slowly at the other end of the pocky,enjoying the flustered and surprised look on his S/O’s face 

Bet they weren’t expecting that- 

Meeting half-way,he’s kiss his S/O slowly,caressing their face 

And get another pocky from the pack,much to his S/O’s dismay 

‘Sharing is caring,right,S/O~?*winks*’ 

He’d then carress and kiss their cheek lovingly,gazing at them with care and awe 

And ruffle their hair 

Then fix it by putting a flower in their hair 

-Endless amount of flowers in his sleeve- 

-Ezio Auditore de la la Flower Magician- 

Connor Kenway/Ratonhnhaké:Ton

Sweet innocent cinnamon roll 

He heard from his friends about these new sweets 

He knows his S/O loves sweets,so he got them a pack 

His S/O was on the ground,reading,when he got home,so he gave them the gift,hoping they’d like it

His S/O look at the pocky pack and grins 

They know Connor has no idea- 

S/O tells him to sit down and close his eyes,with a picky between his lips 

So he complies,confused 

But when he feels the biscuit being munched away,and a soft pair of lips on his own 

He realizes why his friends recommended him those sweets 

He gently kisses back,then smiles softly,touching foreheads with his S/O 

Maybe he should get Pocky packs more often? 

Jacob Frye 

The unstoppable Jacob Frye strikes again! 

He heard of the Pocky Game,and he just knew he had to plan something mischevious 

So,he bought a pocky pack and put it in his S/O’s room,with a nice little note 

So when S/O came home,they got excited and grabbed the pack,and went back to the living room,munching on a pocky and sliding on their fluffy socks 

But something happenedAnd S/O lost balance and started falling- 

But no worries!

Jacob Frye the Gentleman is there to the rescue! 

Easily catches S/O,with a charming smirk 

‘Seems like you’ve…fallen for me,right,dear~?’

 -Oh no- 

He then proceeded to munch on the pocky,making his S/O even more embarrased 

And when the pocky finishes,he kisses his S/O quickly and playfully,then kissed their nose 

Leaving them there,dumbstruck,and winking 

-Smug Bastard- 

He’s definitely planning something sneaky again 

Evie Frye 

 Sweet Evie has been searching non-stop for new paranormal activities in the neighbourhood 

But to no avail 

So she sat at her desk,researching and eating the closest sweet that reached her grasp 

Pocky 

Her S/O slowly enters in her room,and tells her about the new Urban Legends she read about 

Evie is 1000% fascinated

 ‘Y'know,Evie,I heard of this nice Japanese game.Want to try it out?’ 

Intrigued 

Evie raises her eyebrows,urging S/O to explain 

S/O intead takes a pocky,puts it between her lips,and then munches on the other end of it

 She catches on quickly,and slightly amused,follows their lead 

Ending with a gentle and loving kiss 

‘The myth of the Strange Lolita may be interesting,but I bet the Pocky game is much more appealing,isn’t it~?’

 She chuckles and gets another pocky,much to her S/O’s amusement

Home: Nyx Ulric

Day 6: Another Life- Happy Ending for @nyxulricweek

Fandom: Final Fantasy XV

Warnings: None, SFW

Word Count: 605

Character: Nyx Ulric/ OFC

Note: Sometimes one forget how good it feels to be home. AKA Nyx Ulric deserves a happy ending.

Not knowing if any mission he went on would be his last, Raihana hardly got any sleep while Nyx was away. They had been together for years and the anxious feeling in her core never went away. Nyx had currently been away for a little over two weeks and Raihana was starting to worry, but Nyx could handle himself, she knew that.

      Even Nyx felt horrible leaving her by herself so often and when they stumbled upon an open dog adoption in the park on their walk home and a little golden lab managed to escape his makeshift pen and charge at Raihana and Nyx, he took it as a sign and decided that they both needed a little companion in their life. They both knew he was the one and named him Thor, for how he ran like lightning when he was excited.

       And Raihana loved having Thor around, it made the house feel less empty when Nyx was away and his hyperness always pulled a smile on her face and seeing him and Nyx interact together was the cutest thing she had ever seen.

After a tiring day of being forced out of the house by her friends on her day off, Raihana was fast asleep when Nyx came home. He had just gotten back and after checking in, had rushed straight home, hoping he could see his beautiful love and Thor for the first time in weeks even though it was almost 4 a.m. Since Raihana was dead asleep, she wasn’t able to hear a key be inserted into the front door. But little Thor was able too, and he got off his bed and started pawing at the door trying wake his owner up.

Raihana was raised out of her slumber to the sound of her pup pawing at the door. Thinking he had to go out, she got out of bed, throwing a sweatshirt on and opened the bedroom door. What she hadn’t expected was seeing Thor pouncing on Nyx the second he got the door open. All her tiredness faded as she watched their reunion, little Thor excitedly jumping around Nyx, too hyper for him to be able to be petted properly.

Raihana smiled and leaned against the doorway, thankful that Nyx was home safe. Thor finally sat still enough for Nyx to crouch next to him and pet him. Nyx looked up and locked eyes with Raihana and she gave a soft smile.

“Hey handsome. Welcome home.” Her voice was still laden with sleep but her eyes shined with love and it managed to take Nyx’s breath away for a minute.

He slowly got up and walked towards her cupping her face gently in his hands and pulling her in for a sweet kiss, knowing he was home the second her lips touched his. He rested his forehead against hers, slate eyes locking with brown and in a bit of a delayed response replied, “Hey beautiful.” a smile tugging at his lips.

He never really realized how much Raihana, and now Thor, felt like home to him. It wasn’t the walls and the roof, nor was it even the food she said she had prepared for him, no, it was her, and her disheveled hair and the way her feet padded to the kitchen and Thor’s paws clicked after, it was the way she smiled at him and how happy she made him feel, how just walking through the door and seeing the two managed to lift the weight off his shoulder, made him lighter and he will always find a way back to them, back home.

So like

Y'know how

When the ship you like

And it rots your brain so much

With some ships they'll have their eyebrows like tilted upwards really lovingly

But altmal

Is just ANGRY ANGRY FRAAAGHH eyebrows when they kiss passionately

They love each other so much 😈

WIP - Nostalgia

I got flat colours in, obviously they are not going to be anything like the final product, I just do quick fills of random colours to get it ready for real colouring.

I’m still not happy with the hand, but I got it as good as I can for now. I think it’s mostly just the pinkie, but at least we’ll see what shading can do to make it look a bit better.

الصيف الأخير الحلقة 4 الموسم 2 مترجمة

[singlebecauseofthechocobros]

Merry late Christmas to @sherniwrites! I am so sorry this took so long. I hope you enjoy it and you crush this New Year! Also I apologize for tweaking the prompt. I thought it was for NYE the whole time and when I reread the prompt I had written about 3/4ths of this lol. Anyway i love you girl and thank you so much for being a great friend. 

Original Prompt: : # 37 “You didn’t think I’d let you spend Christmas alone, did you?”

Edited due to my error: “You didn’t think I’d let you spend New Years alone did you?”

From the inside of his apartment Nyx only had one wish: that his damn television volume could be turned up louder. Even though the sound from the monitor echoed throughout his living space at max volume, the noise was still not loud enough to block out the hollering and cheers from the city above. The sounds of fire crackers and chants filled his home, driving him a bit towards madness with every passing minute.

Normally, he would be out with his comrades, celebrating the ringing in of the New Year, but tonight he just didn’t feel up to it. A night in didn’t sound half bad.

Sipping on his beer and attempting to focus on the news displaying on the television, Nyx was lulled out of his trance when he heard a knock on his door. He sighed to himself, expecting it to be Libertus and Crowe, there to drag his ass out for a night of gallivanting and drinks. What he had not expected was fellow glaive member Rai Alsayf posted in his doorway with a bottle of champagne in one hand with two glasses in the other and a small bad slung over her shoulders.

“Rai,” he questioned, looking her up and down. She was out of her normal glaive attire and dressed in a long gold sequin gown that reached a little past her calves. The strappy heels added a few extra inches bringing herself almost equal in height to Nyx. Her long glossy black hair was straightened and hung down her back and the dress itself was a bit more open in the front than she probably realized. Or perhaps she knew exactly what she was doing.

“It’s rude to stare Ulric,” she laughed, inviting herself inside and trying to hide the red warming her cheeks. She could remember in great detail the last time she visited the glaives apartment. The memories alone caused her face to redden deeper. As she past her colleague, he closed his eyes taking in the intoxicatingly sweet perfume she had dabbed on her neck and wrists earlier in the evening. “What are you doing home? It’s nearly midnight.”

Her words snapping him out of his trance, he shook his head and shut the door, “I just didn’t feel in the mood for festivities tonight. Thought a night in sounded better.”

The woman turned to face him and gave him a look that expressed that she was not buying that explanation for one second. “I know you better than that. What is really going on?”

The glaive sighed and took a seat in one of the chairs he had at the dining table, “It’s not a big deal. Just after everything this year I really wonder if the next will be any better ya know? I mean we do our jobs; we fight the wars, and all for what? When does it end? People are up there cheering that this upcoming year is going to be different. But will it really? Aren’t they all the same?” He didn’t realize how he must sound once he spoke it all aloud but Rai did not judge him for it.

Instead she took a seat across from Nyx, placing her hand delicately over his, “It may not end,” she spoke truthfully, “But that doesn’t mean you don’t make an impact. Children get to grow up, people are able to fall in love, and the elderly can live out their lives peacefully. Now those may only be a couple examples but you make a difference. The whole glaive makes a difference. Just because it’s a new year does not mean things are just going to change. But the hope that they do and the hope that this New Year will be better keeps people going.” He met her eyes and she gave him a soft smile, “At least that’s what I have to tell myself.”

“Thanks” he replied, giving her hand a squeeze.

“Always Nyx,” she whispered, “Now,” she spoke enthusiastically and jumping out of her seat, “I have in my purse two party hats, a few pairs of beaded necklaces and some balloons we need to blow up but otherwise I have brought the party to you Nyx Ulric and we have about five minutes till the new year’s starts so we need to set up.”

Chuckling to himself he replied with a “yes ma’am” and put on every article she brought for him. Once the two had blown up a few balloons and adorned themselves with decorations, they stood in front of the television which was now displaying a live countdown.

60 seconds

“Hey Rai,” Nyx spoke, turning to her, “How did you know I was here anyway?”

The woman smiled a coy smile and looked at him, “Well I originally met up with the team; Crowe, Lib, Pelna, and of course Tredd and Luche were there too. When I noticed you were absent I stole a bottle of champagne and headed here knowing you were most likely sulking at home.”

45 seconds

“Well then why come all the way down here? I’m sure the party you were attending would have been a way better time than spending your new year’s here in my mess of an apartment.”

“You didn’t think I’d let you spend New Year’s alone, did you,” she asked raising a brow, “No one should be alone for any holiday and I figured ringing in the new year with you was the better alternative to having Tredd try and shove his tongue down my throat.”

30 seconds

“So you would rather me shove my tongue down your throat? Is that what I’m understanding?”

The woman rolled her eyes and shoved his shoulder, “You know what I mean. Although after everything we’ve been through this year…”

“Yeah,” he urged her on, moving towards her.

20 seconds

“W-well I just don’t know if ringing in the New Year with you as my first kiss would be such a bad way to start it off.”

Nyx was directly in front of her now, remembering all the days and nights they had spent together but never acted upon. How she drove him absolutely mad but made him the happiest he could be. How soft her skin felt on his and how melodic her laugh was when it filled the room. How she looked past all his flaws and cared for him for who he was.

10 seconds

“That’s crazy,” he started, making the woman’s eyes dart up to his in panic for a brief moment, “I was actually just thinking maybe you could be my new year’s resolution. We ring in the New Year and take it on together.”

“That doesn’t sound half bad Ulric,” Rai smiled, as both turned towards the television and listened for the roars of the city above praising the New Year and beginnings.

“Happy New Year Ulric,” Rai murmured, her lips inches from his.

“Happy New Year Alsayf,” he answered back before pulling her to him and ringing in the New Year right.

Malik AlSayf-Bittersweet Tragedy

The tragedy has left deep scars on more than one person, not only physically, but emotionally as well.

Malik Al-Sayf has lost it all. His brother. His left arm. His strength. His assassin skills. His confidence.

And all of these, because of the patronising arrogance of a certain ‘Master Assassin’. He was the one to save the mission, with the help of his brother and lover, but the trio had a lot to suffer. Crippled. His brother was killed. His lover’s sight and back were partially crippled. He himself was crippled, having lost an arm, due to a grave injury. And now he was stuck aiding the assassins from behind a desk, at the Jerusalem Bureau, feeling irked to no end. He received no compensation or apology, absolutely nothing to sooth his destroyed soul, whilst the man who jeopardized the mission was walking freely down the streets of Masyaf, licking the boots of his Master and still performing important assassinations.

He was alone. He sat there, mindlessly drawing a map, dipping the white feather in black ink, but he couldn’t focus. His mind wandered to the depths of despair. He was so deep in his mind,he messed up the papyrus scroll,being by then completely buried in his dark thoughts.

'It should have been me’ 'Kadar was too young to die’ 'He had all life ahead of him’ 'Three people had to sacrifice themselves, for one to leave unharmed and get all the glory’ 'I am a useless cripple now’ 'My love may lose her sight’ 'She may remain paralyzed’ 'I am not going to be a whole man for her anymore’ 'I lost all chances’ 'I am alone’

He slumped down the wall and rested his lone hand on his forehead, letting the sorrowful tears stream down his face. Being alone, he allowed himself to show weakness, at least to himself.

Nobody to judge him. Nobody to comfort him. Nobody to care about him.

He sobbed silently, trying to release all tension and emotions, for the first time after so many years of stoic façades.

He was back to being Malik. Just Malik. But an incomplete Malik. He was alone. Or so he thought. That is, because unbeknownst to him, the recovering girl had awoken and saw the whole heartbreaking crumbling of her beloved with her unbandaged, undamaged emerald eye and gripping the wooden door tightly, she kept peeking through the gap, silently letting her own tears wet her pale cheeks, not being able to react in any other way.

That was all in the morning, at the earliest hours and the tides have calmed after a long while. The girl, despite her injuries, dressed in a casual outfit worn by women in that city, covering her head, protecting herself from the scorching sun and hiding the ugly scar across her right side of her face, to get the groceries. She walked calmly, enjoying the Spring heat kissing her skin, after such a long time and sighed, lost in thought. What could she do to help her paramour? He was in a dark place and she tried to help. But…how?

Strolling slowly through the city of Jerusalem, she heard a faint angelic sound.

'Meow’

Huh? What was that?

'Meoooow’

The faint sound trailed longer and repeated again and again, making the red head snap her head towards the small animal.

A cute white kitten started prowling around the girl, rubbing itself around her ankles and purring graciously.

With a soft smile, (y/n) picked up the kitten and raised it to her eye level, only to notice an important fact.

The kitten was missing his left paw.

With a soft giggle, the girl rubbed noses with the kitten and he stuck out his tongue slightly, bleping and closing his eyes. Hoisting the groceries bag better on her arm, she put the kitten inside her blouse, hiding it with her thin green shawl and went back to the Bureau.

(y/n):Come on, sweetheart, you’re coming home with me. I’ll have to introduce you to someone. He will adore you!

There, she saw her beloved scribbling frantically, not noticing her presence. She smiled sweetly at him, then meowed  slowly making her way towards his desk.

Malik: Ah, (y/n), I see you’ve returned. (y/n): I have.

‘Meow’

Malik: *raises an eyebrow* What was that? (y/n): I have a gift for you~. Malik: Huh? A what?

The girl turned around, took off the shawl from her head and carefully took the feline from her blouse, cradling him in her arms lovingly, then turned to Malik.

Malik: A cat? (y/n): Isn’t he so adorable, Malik~? Malik: He is…But why did you bring him here? This place is hardly a proper place to raise a pet. (y/n): I think we can afford a little arrogance, after all we’ve done for the Brotherhood, correct? Besides, it’s just a small ball of fur, nothing inconvenient! Malik: Are you really going to take care of him? Cats can be quite…Stubborn, to say the least. (y/n): Oh, come on, he’s very affectionate! And…Well... Malik: He’s…He’s missing a paw… (y/n): He is. He is one sweet, strong kitten, despite his incapacity…And I think he likes you a lot. I mean...I guess you’re both incredibly brave and and amazing kittens!

The girl set the cat on the table, where he looked up curiously at the man in front of him, then started rubbing his head on Malik’s hand, rolling on the table, seeking attention from the man in cause. Malik was still in slight shock at the cat’s behaviour and being in general, while the girl was watching in glee. Those two really clicked off well.

Malik: What should we name him? (y/n): I had something in mind but…Only if you-… Malik: Kadar? (y/n): Kadar.

The man sighed, seeing her sweet, sad smile as she spoke his younger brother’s name, making him hang his head down, slightly going back to his sorrowful state, but the kitten was faster and he raised his sole paw up, trying to touch Malik’s face, as if he was worried about the man’s emotional state. With a tender smile, the girl cupped her lover’s face and kissed his forehead, hugging him tightly.

(y/n): Go rest, my love. You’ve been working so hard for the past days, it’s high time you get some time off. And don’t bother trying to argue with me, just take little Kadar with you too...You both need company. Malik: *sighs* You never know when to stop. Very well then.

He clumsily picked the cat up, going to his room and staid there until late at night. The girl yawned, slightly tired and bored from the lack of activity from the day, so she decided to call it quits and went to her room, changing in one of Malik’s large shirts that she stole a while ago, trying to catch some sleep. But she couldn’t. Her mind kept flying towards her paramour, left alone with his parasitic thoughts in another room, so she sighed, got up and knocked on the door, entering slowly, trying not to disturb him.

But he wasn’t asleep. Multiple candles were still alit, as he lay there, topless, reading a book, little Kadar curled up, nuzzling his neck.

(y/n): Are you okay,Malik? You kind of…Got me worried… Malik: Exceptionally ordinary. (y/n): Don’t try to fool me, Malik. We both know that’s far from true. Malik: Did you truly expect me to admit how bad I feel? (y/n): N-No…But… Malik: I’m not fine, but it matters little now. Injustice will always win, so forget it.  (y/n): Look…I-I know…I couldn’t possibly bring your brother...Or your arm back...Nor turn back time and fix everything up…But…Okay, maybe I’m really useless…But I can’t stand seeing you like this. It hurts so much...  Malik: You’re already half blind, just close your eye and you’re done.  (y/n): Well, you don’t really handle this situation properly! But I want to help, Malik. I’m here for you. I’ve always been…So please...Please don’t shut me away. 

He put his book on the table and got in front of the small girl, looking down at her, exhaustion and depression lurking obviously on his face. Being closer also meant that the outline of each wound was times more obvious on his sun-kissed chest, making her bite her lip. Malik: Isn’t that my shirt?   (y/n): Might be. Malik: Your ex-thief career is showing again. (y/n): It was a while ago…

He turned his back to the fox like girl and put his hand on his face, slightly annoyed, trying to hide any emotion that might surface.

Malik: Just go to your room, (y/n). There’s nothing to see here but depression. (y/n): If I weren’t ready to stand by your side through every danger, I wouldn’t have come here. We’ve been together for so long and braved so many problems together... Malik: You are doing a grave mistake. (y/n): I prefer to make my own mistakes. But darling, staying my your side will never be a mistake.

The girl unbuttoned her shirt and hugged his wounded back tightly, resting her forehead on his shoulder. She could feel him tense up. He was stunned. Rooted to the spot. Unaware of his next move.

What was going on? What should he do? Those questions became even more conflicting as she started slowly kissing his scars, then nuzzled her face on the crook of his neck, no doubt standing on her tippy toes, as she wasn’t tall enough otherwise. He could feel the breathe hitch in his throat as his heart started aching more and more.

Malik: (Y/N)…Why…? (y/n): I don’t need a reason to comfort my lover, do I? Or is it a crime? Malik: No, but… (y/n): But what, Malik? Have I not been what you expected? I know I am a terrible lover and all that but…I apologize if I disappointed you…I just wanted to see you happy…Smile…Especially during these times of darkness…I know I’m no good...But I’m...I’m trying, I promise... Malik: No, don’t misunderstand, please. I only wish I could properly embrace you, but now, I am unable to comfort you…It s driving me crazy...I’m not worthy of you and your love anymore. You have been everything I could wish for and more than I ever deserved from this life. I just don’t understand why would you stand by me, even now. I’m a cripple. I’m broken, (Y/N), what is there left of me that you still cling to?  (y/n): Obviously, your body may be broken, but I am hardly a model anymore, love. Nevertheless, as long as you can feel my warmth and feelings, then I’m happy. I love you, Malik, with or without your arm. It’s still you, just as I’ve always told you. I’m lucky to have met you and to have your feelings. And little Kadar thinks so too. So please, for us, make an effort and reach out to these feelings. Please...Let us save each other. Malik: I don’t deserve you...You are an angel... (y/n): I’m a fox, dearest, hardly a pure deity, so I guess you’re alright.

He turned towards her and caressed her face tenderly, having her own hand over his, then he untied her eye bandage, letting it fall on the ground, as she bit her lip and casted her gaze to the ground, trying to hide the wound.

(y/n): Quite ungraceful, if you ask me. Gory as hell. Nothing pretty to see here. Malik: It’s only fair to stay this way, when we’re alone in our intimacy, don’t you think? (y/n): Since when do we play fair, Malik? Malik: We never do.

He pushed the fire-kissed strand of hair covering her damaged eye behind her ear then leaned down, kissing her gently. Parting, he traces down to her neck, then slowly removes her shirt, revealing her bare shoulders and cleavage, both beautiful, yet both covered in merciless scars and fresh wounds that have yet to properly heal.

(y/n): Why do you still hold such a depressed look, my love? I know I’m hardly at my highest glory on the beauty-department, but- Malik: No, (Y/N), you will always be perfect, no matter what you think may look like flaws...And yet, these are all my fault. Each one depicts the time I was not there on time to aid you...Save you, just like I promised I would, the day I asked you to marry me. (y/n): Seeing that you have the same problem, I suppose we’re both terrible bad at out jobs as protectors, dear husband. After all, I said a vow as well, did I not~? Malik: Will you ever have it in your heart to forgive me? (y/n): What is there to forgive, if you’ve done nothing wrong? Stop overreacting, I am not the one suffering here. You are. Malik: But I- (y/n): I love you, Malik. And so did Kadar. What happened could have been avoided, but it was not your fault and we both know it. There is no use lingering on the past, when the present is right here, in front of you, telling you to wake up to your senses. Malik: *sighs* I know you are right, but I cannot just forget what happened. Not when it was just a few days ago... (y/n): You don’t have to forget, my love. Just don’t forget that the past is over. The present is all that we have. Malik: Then, may I enjoy this present for an eternity, with you by my side? (y/n): I will always be here for you, Malik. Always and forever. Malik: Always and forever.

They sealed the promise with a solemn kiss, the same way they did when they said their vows to each other on that faithful night, only the two of them, then went back to his bed, cuddling, with little Kadar just between them, all of them enjoying the happy memories and warmth, for as long as they lasted. Dark times may come, but they will always pass, sooner or later and that is something that Malik is never going to forget any time soon.
