PERSONALITY

Talent: Swordmanship

A gentleman by nature, charming and extremely lively – although in a more passive way.

Caliburn carries a lot of energy with him, being quite restless and a born explorer. Sociable and popular, Caliburn seems to be open-minded and doesn't care much about “status” or rules, in addition to often acting as a “mediator” and standing by others.

Despite aiming for the good of the people around him, Caliburn is quick to define his limits and is very strict with them, as well as not letting go of the idea of using light manipulation or blackmail to get what he wants.

However, in general, he prefers to be more virtuous, firmly maintaining his ideals and not being afraid to defend them, appearing to be a very courageous individual.

It's also worth mentioning, even though it's a considerably rarer event, when triggered Caliburn can become extremely impulsive and even violent without wanting it, hence why he always tries to remain calm and in control of his own feelings.

In short, Caliburn is a warm person, who genuinely seeks to keep himself and the people around him positive. However, instead of being completely selfless, Caliburn also cares about his own happiness and limits, and can show irritable and impulsive tendencies if disrespected (normally these impulses are controlled).

FACTS

Caliburn is twisted from Prince Phillip from Sleeping Beauty

Most of his harmful impulses come from his curse, which connects him to the sword. Currently, the curse is under control because of treatments.

One of the Knights who protect Malleus in NRC, although he never shared a past with him. He was appointed to this role on the recommendation of his father, accepting this responsibility in search of a challenge.

Funnily enough, let's just say that his relationship with Malleus is somewhat turbulent.

Due to his curse, Caliburn needs to stay close to the sword. Thus being allowed to carry it around campus.

Caliburn is amnesiac, he remembers almost nothing about his life before the age of 14 and that includes his biological family. Even so, he doesn't seem to actively try to seek answers, preferring to move on.

Caliburn loves horses.

Caliburn is a very energetic person, constantly finding himself trying to expend energy in some way. In addition to his natural dislike of small or cramped spaces, Caliburn frequently leaves the campus without permission. (He's crowley biggest opp/j)

Dancing is one of his biggest joys!

He shares a room with Silver.

APPEARANCE

Caliburn cares about maintaining a good appearance, even being a bit vain.

His hair is mostly light brown, with some blonde highlights in certain parts, tied with a small red ribbon. His eyes are the same colour of an aurora.

His diasomnia uniform is a little different from the others, using the much larger coat as a cape, held to his clothes by silver thread. Around his neck he wears a purple ribbon and a golden necklace with a sword pendant. The shoulders of his shirt are puffed.

His hat is longer than usual, with a feather on one side. The lower part of his outfit is like the others, except for the presence of purple fabrics at his waist that resemble a tailcoat.

a court of shadows and darkness

masterlist - previous chapter

chapter four

summary: Selaene, Rhysand's sister, Azriel's mate runs away after the High Lord of Spring tries to kill her.

warnings: none

enjoy 🌝

"I mean, how is it that I am only now learning of your origins in my court?" Selaene's laughter echoes in the emptiness that has now, century after century, become comforting. "My grandfather was part of the Night Court, but then he fell madly in love with my grandmother and decided to go with her to the Dawn Court. But you know the story."

After so many years together, Selaene and Vanessa can say that they have become more than friends, they have become sisters. The friend had seen the tiger a few times and had been amazed by her elegant and feline form: she had a white coat with black stripes that shone like the moon under the soft light of the passers-by, as they had called them. She had a sweet little face, and one could almost imagine her human form. From time to time, a passerby would come close enough to walk past her, but never close enough to catch her in time, and in recent years, the number of passersby had dwindled, making her doubt her plan.

"You know, Vane, I'm grateful you're here with me, I would have gone crazy without you."

"I was on the verge of madness when I found you. Maybe Mother wanted to give us a sister. You don't have one, do you?"

"No, only a brother, as you already know."

Another pause between the two as they continue to watch the darkness. A sad, bitter smile makes its way through the Fae's voice.

"We deserved a history like your grandparents'."

"But we got it. You have Azriel and I have Thomas."

"Vane..." Selaene did not have the heart to admit to herself that her beautiful mate, after her family thought her dead and after all these centuries, had probably forgotten her and moved on with his life. Not to mention telling Vanessa, who had so much faith in fate to envy.

"No, don't say that, Elle." She knew the tiger was haunted by such thoughts as well, and coming to terms with reality hurt too much. The conversation faded into a heavy silence, like at the beginning of their journey.

If Azriel had moved on, she would not have blamed him in any way, in fact, as much as it hurt, she would have let him go for his sake. Sometimes loving means knowing how to let go.

"Please, Selaene," it is rare for the friend to use her full name, and when she does, she is aware that she is beginning a serious and poignant speech, "remember. If you are lost in the darkness, seek the light."

"Or light it up." She cannot see her friend, but she knows she is smiling and nodding at the same time, as she is wont to do when she is pleased with something Selaene does.

This little play on words, which has become their phrase, has been with them for nearly four centuries, and every time they repeat it, that little spark of hope in their chests shines a little brighter.

A snort comes from the Fae's mouth. "What's wrong, Elle?"

"Nothing, it's just boring." Vanessa chuckles, "Come on, tell me about your family again, last time I think you missed a few adjectives about your brother's eyes."

The two women laugh, and Selaene is grateful that Vanessa enjoys listening to her so much.

"Rhysand's eyes tend to be more blue than mine. Mine are all purple. When he looks at the stars, he dreams. You know, Vane, I think he would be a big believer in if you get lost in the darkness, seek the light" Her friend's laughter echoes in the now familiar darkness, warming the atmosphere.

"Let me guess, he is also the biggest dreamer you know?"

"Of course. But only after me."

"After us. There is no one who dreams more than us."

Azriel sighs, the last breath as a free male of the evening.

Like every weekend, he and his family join in a dinner party at Feyre and Rhysand's house, and after Nyx's birth it is a rare event, which is why he could not say no.

He hasn't spoken to Feyre since what was said in his room, and he hopes she hasn't mentioned it to her mate, or tonight he will have to endure yet another lecture about how in life one must move on, that he also loved Selaene but that they must let her go.

Dinner doesn't go on so badly, it allows him to clear his mind a little and spend some light time, and Feyre doesn't seem to have said anything, doesn't even seem to remember what happened. She does not look at him with pity, and Azriel would like to hug her.

Later that evening the family is divided between those who play cards, those who drink and chat, and Azriel. Actually, he was part of the players, but after winning three out of four rounds, he was kicked out by a slightly tipsy and irritated Cassian. He wanted to retort that he only let Amren win the fourth round because he is slightly intimidated by her, but he opted to keep quiet. Now he stands on the terrace to get some fresh air. He gazes at the stars and the moon, smiling to himself as he remembers nights spent stargazing with his beloved. A sad smile. Azriel always thought Selaene was the reincarnation of the Moon, she shone with her own light, but not blinding like the sun, no, she was beautiful and deep and mysterious like that silver orb in the sky.

"Azriel?" the voice of Feyre distracted him from his thoughts.

"Yes?" Azriel sang victory too soon. He hoped Feyre had forgotten the whole thing, or simply decided to ignore it, but of course not. If it is not Rhysand, or Cassian, now Feyre is added to the list.

"I wanted to talk to you. About a few days ago...," the Fae's sea-colored eyes stare at his face for signs of despondency. Azriel continues to look at the moon. His Selaene.

"I... I haven't talked to Rhysand about it. I know Selaene's history, though, and I know-I mean, I see how your brothers look at you. Or how you're still loyal to her."

At the sound of his mate's name, Azriel grits his teeth. His body stiffens, but he forces himself to breathe. Once, twice, three times, before he looks at Feyre, meeting her eyes full of pity for him. But when he does, he finds none.

She looks at him understandingly, as if to say "I am here, talk to me."

He is surprised.

"Do you want to know my - our story, so then you will look at me as if I were a puppy left alone?"

Feyre smiles sadly, her gaze following that of the Illyrian warrior to the moon. There is a small pause before she responds.

"No, of course not, Az. Clearly I'm saddened, because from the way Rhysand described her, from the way you react just to hearing her name, she sounds like a really special person, and I would have liked to meet her myself. But I won't look at you with pity."

Azriel weighs his words carefully before speaking. Feyre for a moment thinks he might pull back, his posture stiff and his breaths short. But then the male sighs, muscles relaxing almost imperceptibly, and Feyre smiles at him before gently stroking his hand, as if to invite him to speak. As if he is saying "talk to me, I won't judge you," and only then does Azriel relent.

"She was a very special person. She was ... she was my moon."

The female senses the pain he is feeling from the squeaky voice, and knows it must be the first time he has spoken of this to anyone. She has never seen the ShadowSinger so...human, so fragile. And yet, her gaze remains fixed on his face, and her eyes do not make him pull back, but urge him to vent.

"She, we planned to accept the bond the week when she... On evenings like these I would sneak into her house and fly with her to Velaris, we would lie on the rocks and as we watched the stars, we would talk all night. She was...she was everything to me, Feyre. I've never loved anyone the way I loved her, and I don't think I can. Rhysand wants me to move on, to find someone to keep by my side. But I can't even think of another woman when my wound is still so fresh."

When Azriel finishes his speech, he feels a weight lift from his chest. Perhaps this is the first step, he thinks, to moving forward.

He looks at Feyre, searching her blue pools for something he cannot find. And he does not know what he finds there, but he is happy with what he sees. She smiles at him.

"You know, Az. Maybe sometimes loving someone is also knowing how to let go, maybe you've kept this weight on your chest too long, too afraid to show yourself vulnerable to your brothers. I'm glad you trusted me."

A comforting silence falls over them, and Azriel smiles. Feyre tries to speak again, but is interrupted by Cassian.

"Come on, you two! Who wants to play mime?"

And with that, the two return and take part in the games.

Meet my VTM OC:

Ninnia Artea

Clan: Tzimisce

Humanity: 6

Generation: 6th

Favorite dicipline: Protean - fleshcrafting

Favorite person in the world: Cadmus

Random fact: Ninnia loves to collect fancy clothes from all kind of places and across the time, she likes to look good and tidy, also, she’s always eating something similar to a lollypop maded by herself.

Ninnia Artea was a 9 years old girl from the III century, from [redacted], part of what we know as Russia today. She was one of the best sculptors of the village, something that got the atention of a gruesom Tzimisce.

One night, the kindred kidnaped the poor little Ninnia, embrace her and turn his father into a blob of living flesh, with Ninnia's mother watching it all, all in the "Castle" of the kindred.

The little girl got her mind, heart and spirit broken watching with terror in her face what used to be her parents, that's when the sire made her learn both body and mind domination, with her parents as practice subjects.

Ninnia reverted the deformation state of her father to his usual self and then erased the memory of both of them, to the point they, and then everyone on the village forget about the existence of a little artisan called "Ninnia Artea”, from that day, to the mortal world, she never existed.

Ninnia lived under the roof of his sire for 250 years, being used as the personal artisan of the kindred, developing her diciplines to the point her sire has certain fear from the potential of the girl, so he put her in a dungeon to weakened her and then disblerized her, fortunately, Ninnia has been always a really charismatic girl, so part of the maidens of the castle help her escape.

For a couple of years, she went from village to village, hiding from his sire, hoping and praying he never finds her.

On one of those travels she reach a farm where she meet a 10 year old boy named Cadmus and his mother, who adopted her.

Ninnia forced herself to be awake some hours of the day, but Cadmus mother felt something unusual on the “little” girl and told her she shouldn’t force it, they both later knew (Cadmus and his mother) that she was a kindred, but they accepted as her family either way, after all, they were only the 3 of them.

One night, a lasombra lord of that land appeared and took Cadmus as his property, killing his mother and leaving Ninnia at the edge of death.

When she recovered her wounds and buried her adoptive mother, went to avenge her and rescue his only family. It took her 10 years to gain the info and streng to reach the lord’s domain, she stormed in destroying everything, adopting a form that was everything but human, breaking the walls to enter the fortress, and when she was finally in, she turned back into her human form and used her “terminal decree” to make the guards to kill each other.

She then entered the lord’s castle and went to his room, there, he has Cadmus as a hostage, but Ninnia was faster, she learned everything she could just to kill him, and in seconds, she was in front of him, almost touching foreheads, with her red, bestial eyes glowing more strong than ever, she whispered:

“Cadmus is mine, release him and tear apart every limb of your body, I’m gonna watch you do it, and then, and only then I’m gonna kill you”

The little kids escaped the castle, only to find another, and more dangerous problem: the kindred’s childe, Nyx Shyamala.

Ninnia and Nyx had a battle at the spot, but Cadmus interrupted, covering Ninnia with his body, Nyx, that has been lived with him a couple years raged up and started to destroy everything, giving Cadmus the oportunity to take Ninnia and run away.

After some time, without the vitae of his domitor, Cadmus gained the body that should have from the 10 years that has passed, having a total of 20 years old. Ninnia started then giving him her vitae to keep him alive, she couln’t resist another day alone or loosing someone important again.

Centuries has passed, lots of fights with Nyx has been fought and lots of plans has been made.

Ninnia, in company of Cadmus ofc, is now stablished in Concepcion city, Chile, where she has a hidden village full of ghouls that she consider her sons and daughters, giving them the form that they want, reading they minds and souls to be sure she understand what they want.

In Concepcion, she also makes her moves to take the city and win the control from the other faccions, including the one that belongs to Nyx.

Ninnia started as an ancillae concept for me to play, but then it was my turn to be the storyteller, so I couldn’t resist and transform her into an elder npc for the chronicle “La petición de la niña”

Fun fact: Ninnia has loved dragons since she was a little girl, mostly serpent like dragons (she likes cuadruped dragons too, but because she considers them “a new tendency” in comparison of the old chinese-serpent-dragons).

[radioactivesweet]

Hello!!~ May I pretty pls, get more headcanons about Nyx!s/o?; Ares, Beelzebub, Loki and Tesla with a Nyx! s/o?~

(Just imagine Loki using his s/o to scare Zeus, I can’t— 💀✨)

Also, feel free to add other characters if you want ^ - ^

Ngl I'm enjoying this Nyx!s/o requests! Nyx is such a cool goddess! And yeah- Loki is definitely using her in his favour hahahah I won't add anymore character tho otherwise I'll end up posting this much much later

Ares, knowing your name and reputation - alongside the fact that his father himself was scared of you - thought you'd be as scary as you were described. Whenever your name was brought up in a conversation - which happened quite rarely - people who'd grow pale and start shivering, which scared Ares immensly, despite trying not to show it. You became a sort of boogeyman in his mind, the kind of creature you'd talk about to children to have them got to sleep. So when he actually met you and discovered you didn't appear to be that frightnening, he immediately warmed up to you, being the himbo he is. When you get close to each other, whenever he sees you, he lights up - which is kinda ironic if you think about it. Ares has his perks and self-preservation doesn't appear to be one of them. How he has become devoid of any fear towards you and instead showers you with affection is a mystery to you, but it's much appreciated. All the rumours surrounding you weren't enough to scare him away after all and he surely is one funny god to have around. Family dinner are quite funny too for you. Zeus tries to avoid them whenever he can and you can have the time of your life by frightening Zeus himself.

Beelzebub recognises how similar you two are from the first moment he met you. Both of you feared and isolated deities, whose name alone makes the earth tremble, associated with darkness and ruin, whose presence is dreadful and nightmarish. Frightnening and unpleasant, he knew he'd get along well with you. To each other though, you're both kinda warmer, despite keeping a certain level of detachement between you two. You know about Beelzebub's curse - and have seen many curses during your long life - and try to look for a solution to it, despite his resistance. Being an ancient deity gave you much more experience than his, yet helping someone who doesn't want to be helped is a difficult job. Despite everything, when you two are together, you have the certainty that nobody will ever dare disturbing you. On your own you are both terrying, together you are Heaven's worst nightmare.

Loki isn't scared of you, what he's scared of is Odin finally punishing him for one of his many pranks. You are actually the one who could save him from his miserable fate! Not even Odin would dare to punish him if it meant crossing your path. You silently checking on him is more than enough for Loki to do whatever he want without having to deal with the consequences - unless he angers you, at that rate he'd probably be annihilated, but he doesn't want to reach that point. He is mischievous, not stupid, and doesn't want to die either. At first, he has to admit it, Loki was a little put off by you. You were intimidating to say the least, but he already had his good share of frightnening deities to deal with. You can be sure he will never and ever pull a prank on you, even though he'd like to try once. It may be his last prank though.

Nikola is the child of light; you are the goddess of night. The bright scientist and the gloomy deity. Complete opposites, yet he is enchanted by you. Nikola, believing in the power of science instead of gods' doesn't really understand why you seem to be feared by others. He can see how you can appear a little intimidating but aside from that, he finds your presence quite pleasant! Nikola believes that thanks to you he may also progress with his experiments - he is quite interested in your powers too. He doesn't want you to feel like a guinea pig though, because he doesn't absolutely see you that way. You are someone he knows will be of help in his researchs and sees you as a beacon who could make humanity itself evolve. You are his partner and Nikola values a lot your opinions and beliefs. The fact that you are an incredibly powerful deity is a bonus he doesn't dislike though. Thanks to his light and your darkness, he knows you'll be able to achieve great things together.

Twst MC Nyx Sterling backstory

Warning: Mentions of Death and Abuse

Nyx was adopted by farmers but was actually born on the Island of Woe. Her family is cursed to accumulate blot faster than the average mage despite having little to no magic which led to her mother and father panicking and causing extreme paranoia between the two from the thought of their only child being used as a test subject due Shrouds curse despite originally being friends with the head directors and the negative emotions that get amplified by the curse. Somehow Nyx ended up on Earth via wormholes and weird interdimensional stuff. Farmers with the last name Sterling end up adopting her, much to the dismay of their son. Her og parents do pass while Nyx is on Earth and spending time happy on the farm. At the age of 6 Nyx got into a accident when playing with the chickens on the farm and led to her right eye getting scratch. Later on when Nyx turns 12 she receives a broach that was in her hands when the Sterling family first found her, she ends up accepting that she was adopted and saying that "Just because you guys aren't related to me by blood doesn't mean you're not my parents!" And it's happiness for her and family, except for their son who left to the city to become a fashion designer (he succeeds). One year later when she turns 13 a twister hits the country side where her family's farm is and as they are rushing to the basement, tragedy strikes and Nyx got caught by some rubble but her parents end up risking their own lives to save their child, sadly leads to their deaths and her getting traumatized from what happened and the first spot of blot appears on her brooch. Nyx is eventually rescued from the rubble and is treated at a hospital. Her brother ends up taking her to live with him at his apartment, but treats her harshly as he blames her for the passing of his parents and says "You're just a random baby they just so happened to find, and this is how you repay them!" She gets verbally abused by her brother, what she wears, how she acts, how she eats and Nyx starts to hide away in her room after she gets home from school. When she turns 15 she starts to play twisted wonderland as a means to avoid her brother even more (totally not doing this to break her mind later…) . 2 years go by, the same as usual for her until her brother plans to send her away to an all girls private school so he doesn'thavebto deal with her anymore, which she doesn't want that and she sneaks out at night with bags of clothes, food, and money and she runs away for a few days, until the dark mirror summons her and she gets isekai'd to Twisted wonderland and is geeking out. She's unaware she was originally born in Twisted wonderland but she doesn't really want to leave it because she considers that she has no home in earth anymore. Due to the knowledge she has from playing Twisted wonderland back on Earth she now tries to prevent any overblot from happening and tries to snatch any of those blot gem like stones before Grim can eat them, fails at both of them. Nyx also debates whether or not she should get Idia and Ortho involved with her attempts to stop the overblots due to the amount of blackmail she has on most of the main cast, especially the two Shrouds. She rejects the idea of using blackmail to convince Idia and Ortho and prioritizes befriending them while keeping the fact that the world is a game where she's from a secret. She has all the information she could remember of each character written down in a notebook just in case it's ever needed.

OC question for you! Is there an item, belief, or person that your OCs refuse to (or struggle with) leave behind? Does this have a positive or negative impact on them, either long or short term?

(And why do they hold onto it so strongly?)

<:D!! aaa THANK YOU!! omg, this is a great question.

---*---

CASSIA while she's not usually one to hold onto things, i know for a fact cassia carries a strong and bitter grudge toward her mom's side of the family--specifically her maternal grandparents and one of her two aunts. i'd mentioned previously that esme's side of the family didn't accept cassia's transition, but that's not the heart of the reason for her grudge. their rejection was more a general final straw and lead to their estrangement (also they would have been estranged regardless, if they hadn't accepted cassia for who she is ofc, just to clarify; i just mean to say shit was already stacked up).

esme struggles with high anxiety. where cassia is loud and energetic and loves being the center of attention, esme has always been soft-spoken, a bit timid, and tries to take up as little space in a room as possible. much of this behavior can be attributed to the environment she was raised in.

while esme (and oliver) haven't provided cassia with heavy details--your child can support you, but it isn't their responsibility to carry your burdens--she knows enough to understand why esme's demeanor would change during certain family visits.

cassia will sometimes commit petty acts of '''violence''', such as signing up to junkmail newsletters with her aunt and grandparents' email addresses, or prank calling their house before caller ID was a thing, or a variety of other harmless--but extremely annoying--"pranks". she mostly only does this when she's in a low place, herself, and she doesn't talk about it to much of anyone outside her therapist (because she knows her parents would gently chide her). it's her dirty little secret. wouldn't surprise me if she has some kind of burn book somewhere in her room specifically for them.

NYXRAM nyx is not a person to hold onto things, be them grudges or material items. if something's becoming dead weight she lets it go.

there is, however, one exception.

i've mentioned nyx was the only survivor of her clutch. she doesn't remember most of her siblings, but she does remember her brother. for dozens of cycles in her youth, the two of them trained together. they had a complicated relationship; there were moments of competition and resentment, but there were also moments of silent support. until the day came that their parents decided it was time for that first kill to be made. nyxram's first kill was her brother and last remaining sibling. he never earned a name.

i'm not sure if "haunted" is the right word, but nyxram seems to believe her brother is still with her in some way. she refers to him as a feeling she gets--almost a sixth-sense-like impulse that alerts her to approaching/unseen danger and keeps her alive when something should have gotten the jump on her. whether she considers this a blessing or more of a curse depends on the day. she got to live that day, so she's going to keep living... whether she wants to or not.

for a long time, she kept the knife she used to kill him. but when traximus goes to mourn tilus and leaves a spear at his grave, nyxram leaves the knife. i wouldn't say she's left her brother, or the associated tangle of complicated emotions, behind. but it is a first step to allowing herself some kind of peace.

GWYN it's a cop-out answer, but i feel like i have to say ash, given this is a point of argument between them throughout their journey.

ash considers herself dead, as i've mentioned, and has come to peace with it as well as the idea that she may be a literal weapon for the rest of her sentience. she often wishes gwyn would move on and live for herself, rather than continue risking her life for what ash considers an unreachable goal. but gwyn won't, or can't, let her go.

darach has tried the tactic of "look at the trail of pain and misery you've left behind--all these people hurt, the sense of security in their lives forever tainted; it would all end if you just surrendered her to me".

and like... gwyn knows he's right. he'd stop pursuing her, the "ripple effect" of her presence on any world would vanish and people around her--regardless of their involvement--would stop suffering. but... whether you call it loyalty or selfishness, she won't let ash go.

now she's landed in new york. and the ripple is starting to spread.

ASH again, a bit of a cop-out answer but if i were going to provide any answer, it'd be gwyn. ash will absolutely use whatever little bit of power she has to keep gwyn alive. outside of that, though... she's at peace with the fact she's "dead". she doesn't hold on to much else.

I’m late haha I hope you’re still up for doing this!

13, what’s a common writing tip that you almost always follow?

14, how do you write emotional scenes? Do you ever feel what the characters feel? Do you draw from personal experiences?

18, Do you title your fics before, during, or after the writing process? How do you come up with titles?

39, Share a snippet from a WIP

I'm ALWAYS up for asks!

13. Hmmm. I don't know if it's a common writing tip, per se, but I write to write a little bit every day. Even if it's 2-3 sentences, just so I don't get out of the habit and stop making it a priority (easy, when you have a career and a family and other hobbies on the side). I'm also trying to embrace "finished is better than perfect" but, as a perfectionist, that's been a rough transition.

14. Oh, I'm a hot mess when I write emotional scenes. I cry along with them, and it makes them take forever because when there's strong emotion, my ADHD comes in and tries to shut it all down. Good times, man. Now, I try when possible to draw off of my own experience when writing especially emotional scenes, but sometimes, that's not possible (e.g., I've never died or lost my humanity; thus, I can't fully related to Elain's trauma in a 1:1 way). In those cases, I try to put myself in their shoes and draw from how I would likely react to a similar situation, or something with similar themes (e.g., I've lost myself before - how did it feel to come back from that?).

18. It really depends on the fic! Of Swords and Sorrows didn't get a name until partway through the first chapter, and it came from a line Lucien says in the second chapter. Sic Semper Tyrannis, though, had a name just after I thought of the story at large. (Fun fact, I told a friend about it and they said "heh, sic semper tyrannis" in response - thus, boom. A title.) For City of Gold (which I really, really need to put onto AO3), I knew the title before I ever started the fic - because it was based off of an NPC's journeys to Maztica, and I'd just watched The Fountain, lol.) But yeah - I try to draw on general themes of a fic when I'm naming them, or song lyrics/titles/concepts that feel appropriate or hearken to a place or concept within the story. tl;dr: I come up with titles haphazardly.

39. Hmmmm. OK, it's rough still, but from Chapter 2 of Sic Semper Tyrannis:

She manages to regain control of herself quickly, though. “If we’re glamoured, then we’ll need a password,” she adds. “Or some phrase to use when one of us needs to get a hold of the other. Something like… ‘peas’.”

“Peas?” he snorts. “Who are you, Nyx? Very surreptitious…” His face grows thoughtful then, and she watches as an idea forms and he slowly worries his lower lip with his teeth. “I… actually have a more discreet idea, but I don’t know whether you’d be up for it.”

She merely raises her eyebrows at him as if to say, go on. “Tug on the bond.”

Elain’s reaction is immediate. “No.”

“But it-”

“I said, no.”

There’s a long pause. “You know, you can’t run away from it forever, Elain.”  

Correction, she wants to say. Being immortal, I both can and will. And just as it seems they’ve made headway, they come full circle. 

“We’re not here to discuss it anyway. Stick to business.”

Lucien runs a hand across his face. “No, not until I say this: I’ve been giving you privacy but if it’s the Shadowsinger, just -”

“It’s not - it has nothing to do about him. There is nothing going on between me and-” She falters for a moment and her cheeks pinken. “It doesn’t matter. He has nothing to do with this.”

“Fine - just answer me this, ok? Is it me?”

“We’re about to spend three days together confined to a yacht and this is the discussion you want to have?”

A faint whir sounds from his golden eye while the russet one bores into her. “I think I deserve to know whether I’m to blame for the hell I’ve been dealing with for the last five years, yes.”

Ouch. Elain winced. “Yes-”  His face crumples in real-time. “-and no,” she added. He pauses, mid-breakdown, and returns his gaze to her.

Thanks, @olenvasynyt!

Ask Game!

Part THREE of my A Court of Silver Flames reread commentary that absolutely no one asked for.

--Is there a ship name for Mor/Emerie? Even though it's based entirely on Emerie saying she forgot how beautiful Mor is and blushing? Because I ship it.

-- Gwyn having them written into Merril's book about the Valkyries. So SWEET!! "Our stories are worth telling." Damn straight.

-- Nesta facing her fear with the fire. That's my girl.

-- the House showed her its heart!!!

-- kinda fuckin rude of Rhys to give the dagger Nesta Made to Eris. Even if she doesn't want it, it should be Nesta's to give away.

-- I need Nesta, Aelin, and Bryce to form a dance troupe.

-- Eris tells Nesta that what happened between him and Mor after she was savaged didn't go down the way Mor says. He's implied this a few times. I need to know!!! What happened!? Her gift is truth, why would she lie about that?

-- Nesta, teach me how to dance! I need to seduce a man into a marriage proposal in three dances or less.

-- Nesta saying "fuck you" to Elain is priceless

-- Nesta and Azriel's relationship is low key but adorable!

-- Take the gods damned symphonia, Nesta!! Jesus Christ, stop getting in your own fucking way! You two idiots love each other!

-- Nesta and Cassian making love instead of just fucking is...wonderful. It's about damn time. "And warm and safe and home at last in Cassian's arms, Nesta slept." YESSSSSSSS. (Also my work crush walked into the break room when I was right in the middle of this sex scene. I was screaming internally.)

-- the girls are having SUCH a good time in the House and the House is having a good time and they're making bracelets and they're a found family and I love them.

-- VALKYRIES!!!! CUT THAT RIBBON, YOU WONDERFUL FEMALES!!!!

-- "She would not be mastered by anything again. She was the master of herself...And this person she was becoming, emerging day by day...She might even like her." NESTAAAAAAAA

-- I forgot she MADE the House oh my God.

-- "The mood hadn't been helped by a rare red star blasting across the sky one day." SUP, AELIN!!! LOVE YOU MOST

-- "I am your MATE, for fuck's sake!" Oh, Cassian.

-- "Well, I didn't have a choice in being shackled to you, either." CASSIAN, YOU FUCKING IDIOT OH MY GOD.

-- "some things are more important than fear." Gwyn, I love you.

--And I love that Mor agreed to be their Uber. Have a falling out while dealing with the fact that you're mated? Call Mor's Mating Mishap Uber to get you the fuck away from that male.

-- I said it before and I'll say it again. The bargin to die together is so FUCKING STUPID. And inconsiderate to your loved ones. The Inner Court, your sisters, your possible son would be devastated by one death and you bargained to make it a DOUBLE funeral for them. How nice. If Nyx loses a dad, oh no, guess what, he's an ORPHAN. Also, Rhys is waaaaay older than Feyre and would die before her naturally, so this bargin drastically shortens Feyre's lifespan. 'Oh, she doesn't want to live without him.' That's fucking life, isn't it? The people we love the most die on us, and our world falls apart, and then guess what? We keep fucking going.

-- Nesta has made her first kill in the Blood Rite

-- "Emerie was alive. And nearby. And in danger. And this motherfucker wouldn't stop Nesta from saving her." FUUUUUUUUCK YES

-- every time the pov shifts from Nesta to Cassian on the continent I want to scream. I don't give a flying fuck about the rescue mission for Eris.

-- "You came for me."

"Of course. That's what sisters do." * SCREAMING. CRYING, THROWING UP * I love you, Emerie!

-- "I have been broken before...I survived it. And I will not be broken again -- not even by this mountain." FUCK YEAH, GWYN.

-- Gwyn's story and then Emerie telling her "You're not alone." And Emerie's shit father. And Nesta finally, finally telling them everything, letting them all the way into her heart. And they don't cringe away. They love her. I am fucking crying.

-- "'I'll face it with you,' Gwyn whispered over and over again. 'Promise me we'll face it together.'" I love you, Gwyn.

-- "There were no hateful voices in her head. Only the knowledge that her friends lay behind her, beyond the line she had drawn in the earth, and she would not cede that line. She would not fail her friends. She had no room for fear in her heart." I love you, Nesta

-- "my mate taught me well." FUCK YEAH

-- OH FUCK I FORGOT ABOUT THIS PART!!! Cassian showed up, mind controlled. FUCK

-- JESUS CHRIST, HE'S KILLING HIMSELF!! I FORGOT SO MUCH!

-- oh hell. The stupid birth. I have a genuine fear of giving birth so this fucking sucks. For a few reasons.

-- HOW is a C section BEYOND THE POWER OF MAGIC.

-- "so live, Nesta Archeron." Echoes of "live, Manon, live."

-- And thus, my beloved Nesta gets nerfed. WHY must the female protagonist sacrifice her power in order to save the day? Why can't she stay overpowered like Rhys? Like Feyre? It's clear in HOFAS that Nesta still has some power but come on! WHY, SJM, FUCKING WHY!!!!!! Her power is Death, couldn't she use that to tell death to back the fuck off of her sister? Save Feyre USING her power instead of SACRIFYING IT. Ugh. It makes me so mad.

-- you SHOULD bow, Rhys. And you should treat Nesta with the utmost respect, love, and gratitude for the rest of time. But as we see in HOFAS that's not the case, IS IT? This book (and HOFAS) kind of ruins him.

-- Nyx was a goddess. Weird thing to name a boy.

-- Cassian, I am going to need you to say "I love you" back in one of the future ACOTAR books. Do you hear me, SJM, he needs to SAY IT.

-- I'm glad Nesta got the House. And finally a painting of her.

-- I am so glad that Nesta got the peace and love and friends that she deserves. But it does make me wonder why the relationships seemed so off in their cameos during HOFAS. Rhys is being a domineering prick to Nesta, so much so that Ember (beloved) feels the need to step in and defend her and mother her. And Cassian, who clearly loves her and has challenged Rhys before when he was being a dick, just stood there and let it happen. What was that??

“...Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves.”

Howdy! this is the continuation of "When does a man become a monster" Hope you enjoy WC : 981 (It is shorter than the previous Sorry >.<) Reminder : I do this for fun and will upload as I finish each part!

The weeks she had spent at Moonrise were what she would call uneventful. She wasn’t able to find any information about how to kill Kethric, minus the information that he is using some form of relic to keep his immortality. Where this relic was located, she hadn’t figured out yet. At least it wasn’t completely boring. She was able to have some form of authority alongside Kethric to keep some order throughout Moonrise, but there was no sign of her brother. He became merely a memory during her time spent in the shadowlands. She accepted the fact that he was gone forever. Deep down, she believed she deserved to be alone. Neither friends nor family. She was alone in this abyss of darkness, and she allowed it to consume her. Every creature that walked through the doors of the tower was at her and Kethric’s mercy, and that gave her the feeling of what power could be. She thrived off the fear people would have when they were told they had to answer her before Kethric found out anything. It was almost like a high that she did not want to come down from. As long as she could forget everything before she came all the way to this region, she was happy. She didn’t have to think about Bhaal, she didn’t have to worry about Orin, and she didn’t have to remember all her failures here. She was finally getting a taste of what it was like to be like her brother. He was the right hand man for everything, while she always came in second, the last resort if he failed. However, she would be better than him. She wouldn’t let the power get to her head. She would do this the way she was trained to do it. 

Wendigo and General Thorm were in the throne room. There were goblins there that failed to bring a 'true soul' here, and along with them, just not following orders. The goblins were pleading, trying to make there case, as Wendigo stood there at attention, waiting for her next command for what she needed to do. Standing there by where General Thorm was sitting on his throne, Wendigo commanded the three goblins before her to speak about how they failed to do such a simple task that was supposed to be carried out. A simple task that a child could've handled on their own. 

"I did as I was told! Followed every order that was given-" 

"The facts suggest otherwise. You were ordered to retrieve the artifact- you failed to do so."

Wendigo cut off the goblin that was trying to plead her case. She sounded cold, commanding like a solider. All she knew, based on the information given to her, was that these goblins failed to carry out a task given by the Kethric.

"Take that up with Minthara! She was the one who-"

"Enough!"

Wendigo stepped forward from where she was standing, still holding her place near the General. It looked like she was daring the goblin to continue speaking. It would be satisfying to see their tongues cut out of their mouths, or maybe ripping out their vocal chords would be a better punishment

"You failed to retrieve the artifact; you failed to protect your True Soul-"

"NYX!!" 

A familiar voice echoed throughout the throne room. Wendigo saw a man stepping forward as she was about to continue to tear into the goblins about their failures, only to see the man stopped in his tracks by a pale elf with white hair and red eyes.

“A vampire? Way out here ?”

She thought as she looked at the group that just interrupted what was happening. She looked up at the person who spoke her name. Only one person would know it unless-

"Creed..."

She whispered under her breath. She just wanted to run up to him and hug her brother, but she didn’t understand why he called her by her birth name. Was this a trick ? Is he just playing one of his stupid games to make everyone doubt her? She was confused by everything in this moment. Who were the others he was traveling with outside of the pale elf ? Who was the human traveling with him? Were there others? She hesitated to speak, but her hesitation didn't go unnoticed as she saw Kethric rise from his throne.

"Is there a problem, Wendigo? "

She took a deep breath in, and soon enough, her facade was replaced by the cold, heartless person she was moments before. She straightened her posture and held her chin high.

"No, General."

"Good. We are too close to the ending and the new beginning. I can coddle failure no longer. Kill them. Quickly."

Kethric commanded, and with that, the goblins started getting mad. How cute they think they can take him Soon enough, with all the yelling, one of the goblins threw a harbringer at Kethric. Wendigo had to hold back a laugh because everyone who didn't know Kethric's little secret was about to witness that he couldn't be killed. Not that easily, but of course Wendigo knew the source of his power. 

Once the harbringer made contact with Kethric’s chest, he fell back into his throne, but he soon got back up and ripped it out of his chest like it was nothing. He walked over to the goblin that threw the weapon at him, dropped it at his feet, and with a blink of an eye, the goblin was dead. The room fell silent for a moment before Kethric spoke up once more.

"Dispose of the rest as you see fit, or take advantage of our surprise guest. Regardless, I'm sure the results will send a clear message to the troops on the importance of discipline."

He looked over at Wendigo to make sure she understood.

"Of course. It will be handled."

Brief Personality: Sam is very quiet when you first meet him, he seems to not trust anyone or anything really. But when you break through his walls he is a very sweet and passionate person, they genuinely care about their family and just want to be accepted by other people. Which often means he will overwork himself just to “prove” himself to others, he honestly doesn’t know many connections where he doesn’t have to give something to another person.

Brief Backstory:

Sam was born to a long line of magical creatures. The occult was incredibly normal in their family, having connections to the occult and the divine. His family had a powerful inherent magic ability, however when Sam was born there wasn’t a celebration.

Long ago, one of Sam’s oldest ancestors made a deal with a demon, Azazel. As she was on the verge of being executed for witchcraft. She made a deal with the demon that the first boy born to their family would belong to Azazel. And to save her life she agreed.

This wasn’t a problem for many generations. They successfully had generations upon generations of women. The most recent generations couldn’t even remember the curse very well, until Sam came along.

Sam was treated differently than his sisters, he wasn’t given the same toys or the same opportunities. His family believed since that he would be given up to the demon at 18, there was no point in developing a relationship or spending money or time with him.

Sam tried everything he could in order to get his families approval. Becoming one of the most powerful magic users in his family. However nothing was enough. And the time was slowly ticking to when he turned 18.

A few weeks before his 18th birthday, he ran away from home and made an abandoned house his sanctuary. Completely demon proofing it.. well mostly.. even though the demon couldn’t get to him physically, he could still mentally torment him, and attempt to get him physically.

Sam eventually ends up being protected by the divine forces his family tried to keep him from. And he slowly realizes how weak Azazel actually is, unlike how his family thought for generations.

Sam ends up breaking the bond between him and Azazel and kills him. Before going to live with his real found family, protecting them from the occult.

[charlottedabookworm]

Does Regis know that untrained magic can kill the user? Because if he does, well, it kind of makes the Galahdians justified in being so angry with him.

Like, he knows that magic kills if not trained but still has a fuck-ton of one night stands. And he apparently he didn't use condoms, or keep track of their names or even leave them a number to contact him if something like this happened. And sure, it might be that Regis never thought he would have a bastard, but try telling that to Nyx and his family. Thoughtless mistakes are not exactly an improvement on deliberately endangering someone, when there are lives on the line.

tbf to him he does use condoms but they aren't exactly 100% effective

he also assumes that since his entire family has such problems having kids there's some sort of magic based fertility issues so he genuniely doesn't think about the fact that he might have kids out there which is. not great, but idk i can see his though process

i can also see him assuming that if one of his partner's had a kid they thought was his they'd probably contact him? he doesn't exactly hide that he's the prince and it's pretty obvious where he is and again, assumption is not great but he does have a point

as for the other part, however...

he doesn't not know

the fact is, regis is well aware that magic is dangerous. after all more kings of lucis have been killed by their own magic - mostly through the wall or being massively drained through large spells - then have been killed by war

but also. it's (supposedly) so rare for lucis caelum's to have more than two children

and the royal line is trained since birth to use their magic because magic can respond to strong emotions and toddlers with no training lead to things on fire or broken

it's not really something he'd even think about so he doesn't know

regis is also a smart man who is well studied in magic and has his own son and the family warnings to always start them training as young as possible, get the magic under control, you can use your magic to calm your childs when it goes out of control - he has all of that ringing in his head and he's a smart man and he could probably figure it out

so he doesn't not know

it's just. not really something he considers until the son he didn't know about is in front of him, repeatedly harmed by his own magic, and regis realises that maybe the reason there's no known lucis caelum bastards isn't because of fertility issues or people not wanting to deal with the name but instead...

like you said, thoughtlessness isn't great

so yeah. even the people of galahd who don't particuraly care about nyx care about that fact that regis is either purposefully or thoughtlessly endangering his own people and his people's children

that could be any child from across lucis, could be any child of any of their clans, their own child torn apart from the inside out because the king was a young idiot once but now he refuses to think

and yeah they're angry about it

even nyx is, sometimes

[oddball-artz]

OMG YOU HAVE SPOONS!!!!!! YIPPIE!!!! (probably bc you got a good night's sleep)

And if you know me at all, be prepared for the sea of questions>:]

1) Go into detail about Dalia and Sabrina and their family in the second Gen au. Any Hcs or stuff?

2) Nyx and his relationship with his family.

3) (idk if it was onyx or nyx who had the ED, I forgor their names are so similar).Go into detail Abt thier ED, tho.

4) For the love of God drop Hcs till I die, I don't care for who, I just NEED them.

And, if you have spoons don't be afraid to look in your inbox for any other asks I may have sent/nf (bc both me and you forget about the asks tbh)

And as always, ily platonically, man :333

It is not the sleep, I don't need sleep, idk what it was if it wasn't the sleep, but im not being proven wrong /j

I've only got a couple, and they're pretty Dalia centric, but you can have em

Dalia picked up a bunch of tips and tricks for dealing with kids both from helping raise her siblings and from treating kids as a nurse, uses them all the time, her personal favorite thay she's picked up is doubling bedsheets when kids are sick so that if they get dirty you can just take it off and make it a later problem while you comfort said sick child. Dalia is also very sentimental as a parent, cries at every ceremony and graduation. Sometimes she'll say something that sounds like her mother and she goes quiet for a while after that. I have a feeling that Sabrina and Dalia's house tends to be the designated 'safe house' for Vee and Jasper's friends. Dalia's actually kind of happy about this, in her mind it's confirmation that she's not her mother. (This may or may not be based on the fact that my house irl is the safehouse). All I have rn, sorry

Next up Nyx, my boy. He feels like a walking second place trophy compared to all his siblings. Brushes it off in an Rottmnt Leo sort of way, through humor and a facade of confidence. Desperately wants anyone to be proud of him. Takes his little siblings out crimeing™️ together sometimes, and is like the number one supporter of their shenanigans. Let's them steal his shit, as long as they don't get caught(bc he taught them better than that). The only thing he'd put up a fight against having stolen is his binder, but that's about it.

Oh and Onyx is the one with an ED, she has anorexia specifically. It started with her just trying to lose weight, she's fairly light, but her frame is wide, so she didn't see any results and things got drastic from there, especially when people started making fun of her for her body. She's super sensitive to comments about her body, and the bullying just made it so much worse. She hates looking at herself, in mirrors, in pictures, anything. It's like her eyes pick out the flaws every time and she can't stand it. So she's trying to 'fix' herself, much to the worry of the people around her. She eats in the dream bubbles, but that's only because she knows that it isn't real. Harlow noticed this and has started sneaking food into the dream bubbles just so Onyx eats for once. Onyx still hasn't caught onto this.

And various hcs about the sillies

Onyx spins her drumsticks between her fingers when she's bored, she can do it really fast too

Nyx's hoodie he wears in his sprite is his dysphoria hoodie

Gray has a lot of little interests she keeps hidden. They tend to be niche and geeky, so she hides them to protect her image

Nyx can project his voice loud enough to yell over the band

Onyx is only ever quiet when she's flustered or thinking about somthing, other than that there's usually at least a dull chatter coming from her

Onyx is very physically affectionate, she straight up tackle hugs people.

Gray was a pageant kid,and his parents were very competitive about it. They still have all their sashes from it too

Onyx doesn't fight for herself, but if you say something bad about someone she cares about that's when she starts a fight. Starting fights like that is what got her thrown through a window that one time

Onyx is the one who started calling Alison peepaw, and it just stuck after that

When Alison sleeps she doesn't snore, she shuffles through radio channels under her breath, kind of like sleeptalking

Speaking of Alison, he's insecure about the radio affect his voice has

Alison is very protective of the kids she's 'adopted' (usually underclassmen, but they've also taken most of the radio class under their wing)

Brief Personality: Cato is a bit iffy when meeting new people, especially if his kids are near by. He’s like a father to his kids, very.. very.. very.. protective. He is also a bit jumpy and skittish at points- but getting to know him he’s really nice and helpful.. most of the time. If not provoked.

Brief Backstory: Most of it i rather not say. So the most you’ll know is that I survived in a world for 22 Eyeshifters years- 88 for human years. And on the way got two kids on my porch that I decided to adopt- Teva is the newest to my family. I’ve also been looking for a few people I’ve lost contact to .. I don’t even know if they’re… alive…

Fun facts!:

- Cato has forced himself to not sleep at all!! Yes he’s tired, but he ignores that. His son, Pok, has to make him sleep at least an hour

- He has a person trying to take every note of him. (I wonder who…)

- He tries to hide everything, only listen to what people think or want! But can he really hold it in for long?

(ILL BE WORKING ON THE OTHER CHARACTERS SHEETS and adding more onto some of these sheets- so yea!!)

Kol

Teva and Pok!

Fun Facts About Your Tav!

Screenshot of Tavaria Stormgleam

Tagged by @nyx-knox (thank you SO much for the tag! I love tags, especially for my Tav!)

1. Is Your Character Good, Evil, or Neutral? (Makes some good decisions, some bad ones?)

Tavaria leans towards more good than neutral. She is selfless and willing to do anything for others HOWEVER she learned a few tricks from Astarion. One being to steal. If it can be looted, it is in her bag of holding!

2. What Hobbies Do They Partake In?

Tavaria loves to read. She particularly loves romance books with 2 bit smut. She loves to read stories with happy endings and she is a sucker for true love. She loves the smut aspect particularly after Astarion was gifted her virginity. She loved the concept of two becoming one and the deeper connection she gains from it. She was a sucker all things related to love. Tavaria likes to sing or hum when alone, never gaining the confidence to sing in front of others yet. Astarion caught her a few times but she still refused to sing in front of him.

3. Do They Own Any Heirlooms From Their Family or Ancestors?

Tavaria comes from an abusive family and she would rather not have anything from her family or ancestors. She doesn't have heirlooms because of that and instead creates new traditions and memories with Astarion.

4. Can Your Character Cook?

Yes and very well too! She just doesn't like to so she delegates that task to Gale more often than not. She is particularly good at making curry and beef stew. Tav occasionally cooks and when she does, nothing is left behind. Karlach especially loves Tav's cooking!

5. Does Your Character Have a Best Friend?

Yes. Tavaria used to have a few friends but no one she could rely on until Karlach came into the picture. Karlach is always there for Tavaria and they share everything about each other. Karlach gets all the juicy gossip about Astarion (with a few exceptions. Tav does respect Astarion and wont say anything too sensitive). Other than Karlach, Gale is a decent friend but since Gale still harbors feelings for her, Tav refuses to lean on him too much due to that.

6. Their Biggest Fear?

Tav is terrified of never finding herself. She lived with abuse so much that she had to bend herself to other's will for too long. She lost her sense of who she was and wants to regain it. She is afraid she never will figure out who she truly is because of the trauma. Astarion has been helping her and guiding her in her therapy but they both need help and can only offer support to each other. Jaheira tends to help as well.

7. Name One of Their Red Flags.

Tavaria needs to have control over herself because for as far back as she can remember, she had others controlling her. She doesn't want that to happen again and so she needs to be in control of her own being (not really drinking for example and no drugs as well as she can't have her body be out of her control). She never controls others, like Astarion. Instead she retreats to her tent if things become too much. Astarion usually would join her and they'd find a way to help her feel in control. Usually in the bedroom but Astarion is fine with it as Tav always asks consent and she never does anything to trigger his trauma.

I tag @thechaoticdruid, @brain-rot-central, @bardic-inspo @redlittlefoxari @aevallare @scaryanneee for fun! No pressure to do any of this lol <3

Kelly- Meeting Him

I turn the key in my car again irritated that my car won't start. Groaning I get out of the car and slam the door behind me. Leaning on the car I ring Connor but he doesn't answer, he's probably at work at the hospital. Sighing I end the call

"Sorry is everything ok?" A handsome stranger asks me

"I'm fine don't worry, just a broken down car"

"You want me to take a look at it?"

"Sure, knock yourself out" I say watching as he opens up the hood of the car "I'm YN Rhodes by the way" I stick my hand out for the guy to shake

"Rhodes as in Connor Rhodes?"

"Yeah that's my twin brother"

"Kelly Severide" he shakes my hand "how come I haven't see you around before?" I take in a deep breath

"I tend to keep to myself really. Don't usually do bars or going out in general, but tonight I was on a date. Went pretty shit" I chuckle thinking back to my date

"How so?"

"The guy wouldn't stop talking about himself. Liked to drop in the fact he had a yacht every couple of minutes" both Kelly and I chuckle

"Well, I'm afraid it looks like your going to need a new car battery"

"Great" I groan with annoyance

"I'll give you a lift home"

"Oh no it's absolutely...."

"Don't say ok or it's fine. I'll drop you off home"

"Thank you"

It's about a 15 minute drive and the whole tome we just chat about ourselves and jobs. Kelly tells me he's a firefighter while I tell him that I work for the family business with the numbers. When we arrive I get kind of disappointed that our chat has to end so I offer him a drink inside, to which he agrees to. As soon as I open the door, my black German Shepard greets me

"Hello my baby" I squish her face in my hands and kiss her. I look back at Kelly who's smiling "sorry I should have warned you that I have a dog. Her names Nyx she's super friendly so be prepared for cuddles"

"She's beautiful"

"Thank you. I rescued her a couple years ago, kept me company since then. Do you want a beer?"

"Sure" I walk over to the kitchen with Kelly and Nyx following me "you've got a nice place"

"Thanks it's not much but it's good enough for me and this girl" I give Nyx a head rub then open up the fridge and hand Kelly a cold beer and take one for myself. We go back to the living room where Nyx climbs onto the sofa next to me and places her head on my lap

"How long have you lived in Chicago?"

"Forever. Connor was the one who left us all as soon as he could. Clair, our younger sister was bitter about Connor leaving us with our father"

"And what about you?"

"At first yeah. I became a mother figure to Clair and I resented Connor for leaving when I couldn't. I then soon realised that the reason I hated him was only because Connor did what I wanted to do. Leave the family business, you know I actually wanted to be a firefighter" I sip my beer

"Then why don't you do it?"

"Dad" I give Kelly a sad smile "can't do it to him. Probably will end up giving him a heart attack"

"You shouldn't give up your dreams because your scared your dads going have a hissy fit" sighing I get off the couch and go to the kitchen to grab us both another beer. What I don't realised is Kelly has followed me in, until I turn around and face him. He tucks away a stray hair "you should do what you want to do. If your dad doesn't like it then so be it"

"It's not as easy as that. If I go against him I literally loose everything. My dad pays for my car, my house. Of course I don't want him to do, but if I leave the company all of that stops and I will have no income. I've had one beer and I'm pouring my heart out to you. I'm sorry"

"Don't apologise"

After quite a few beers we both end up drunk. Not wanting to worry about Kelly driving or worrying if he's home safely I tell him to stop the night. We end up in bed together, for the first time since having her, Nyx slept on the floor.
