I saw an artist talk about how their swords differ in personality and how they work in their teams, so I wanted to write a little bit about my main teams
My headcanon is that every sword is different because they're heavily influenced by their current master, so here are my swords if I were their saniwa (♡°◡°)
Tumblr media
Do note that these guys are different from Hazuki's swords. I will do a write up for hers in the future
Tumblr media
Team 1: Outdoor daytime team (standard lineup)
Tumblr media
"A leader is only as good as his team. I'm relying on all of you out there."
Shokudaikiri is the saniwa’s main attendant and the captain of the main team. Known throughout the citadel as the saniwa’s undisputed right hand, he aims to live up to that reputation with every swing of his blade. It helps that going batshit on the battlefield is his idea of a good time.
With his unmatched strength and the sheer joy he takes in battle, his team naturally gets caught up in his momentum and they get the job done quickly and efficiently. As much as he is a natural leader, he still looks out for and relies on his team. He is not above asking them for help, especially with his weakness: scouting.
Tumblr media
"Nushisama says my true form is beautiful… So I won't hold back anymore."
The only one on the main team’s standard lineup who can keep up with Shoku. Mainly, it's because he equally relishes in going absolutely batshit feral. He hid that side of him only for a short while before realizing that his saniwa likes that side of him. Now, he freely indulges in his more demonic side, but would need his team members to bring him back down before he causes any unnecessary damage.
Tumblr media
"Calm your spirits..."
The one who usually snaps Kogi out of his demon fox trance. He doesn't want to be on the citadel's main team but carries out his duties because he knows everyone relies on him for his strength. Kousetsu is Shoku's counter momentum, pulling the team's energy back before it tips too far out of control. He takes it upon himself to keep everyone safe.
Tumblr media
"Again? Well, as long as Hotarumaru is going too. He's not? Then why are you asking me?"
He also doesn't want to be here and doesn't know why the saniwa keeps picking him to be on the main team.
Surprisingly enough though, he does get swept up in the momentum, whether he puts any effort into it or not. His sword instincts take over and push him into the middle of the action. He even learns that he likes the thrill of battle, though he'd never admit it. He doesn't want to be sent out on even more sorties after all.
Tumblr media
Hotaru and Tarou have no personal relationship with the saniwa but are put on the main team to provide extra strength. Hotaru doubles as a bribe to get Akashi to participate though
Team 1: Non-standard lineup (Ootachis out, Mitsutadas in)
Tumblr media
"Let's get this job done properly."
Currently training to be the leader of his own team and will be once he returns from his training journey.
His leadership style is the complete opposite of Shoku's, something Kousetsu is grateful for. Jikkyuu is a quiet, calculating, and no-nonsense type of leader. He is well-aware of his surroundings, as well as the movements of his own teammates. There won't be anyone going batshit under his watch... is what he says when he leaves the citadel. But once he's pulled into the heat of battle, a part of him that had been hidden and long forgotten comes out.
Kogi follows suit, letting his feral fox side out to play. Shoku would have joined in as well, if it weren't for the fact that Jikkyuu is his brother, and also favoured by the saniwa. Taking on the responsibility of the saniwa's right hand, Shoku is usually the one who snaps Jikkyuu out of his demonic killing machine mentality before he falls too deeply into it and loses himself completely.
Tumblr media
"You guys really need to calm down."
Fuku's just chilling here tbh. He gets along with Akashi the best and hangs back with him to pick off the enemies that the other swords who are going batshit missed. He doesn't mind fighting, but doesn't jump at the opportunity to fight either. Dude just wants to go out to look for new flowers.
Tumblr media
Team 2: General Use Night team This team is put together when they are not split up into more specific teams. They are much more rambunctious than the main team and this causes a bit of an issue since they tend to make their presence known before they can sneak up on the enemy. This is remedied by giving Nikkari leadership of the team
Tumblr media
"Aruji! Look here! Are you watching!?"
Sadachan's been Team 2's captain for the longest time and he'll challenge anyone who tries to steal his position! But he's been spoiled by the saniwa ever since he joined the citadel, causing him to be overconfident. He was completely blindsided when, of all swords, it would be Nikkari who was named co-captain.
They take turns leading the team, with Sadachan going all out, using as many flashy moves as he can think of, to prove he should be the team's sole captain. Nikkari doesn't care that much about being captain so when Sadachan gets too riled up, all Nikkari really has to do to get him back to being his carefree self is to tell him his moves were all very cool.
Tumblr media
“Take your time. Go slow. That’s it… The end result is not the only thing that matters. You understand that, right?”
A snake hiding in the grass, waiting for just the right moment to strike. He's a patient one and his patience paid off.
Suddenly gaining the saniwa’s favour for reasons unknown to the rest of the citadel, he was named co-captain and was given special treatment from that day onwards. While he was always a favourite among the wakizashi, his standing in the citadel now rivals even that of the saniwa’s right hand sword.
He plays it off when other swords ask about this sudden change, denying that his special treatment is anything out of the ordinary for one of the saniwa’s first swords. And after seeing the saniwa push him away enough times, they start to believe him. Although, the smile on his face tells a different story.
On the battlefield, he excels at scouting. He has use of two sets of eyes, after all. He guides the team through the darkness with his ghost flames and is quick to come up with successful strategies. To the surprise of many swords, he is extremely serious when it comes to battle and is a reliable teammate and captain.
Tumblr media
“Get moving, everyone! This job’s not gonna get itself done!”
He doesn’t mind not being captain but he’ll make his opinions heard regardless of where he’s positioned. He sees himself as the saniwa’s most reliable uchigatana and has the strength to back up that claim. Whenever the teams are being decided, he would be the first one to volunteer. He is a good teammate all around and supports his team to make sure everyone comes home safe.
Tumblr media
“Goshujinsama trusts someone like me to protect everyone… Then... I'll act as everyone's shield. No one else needs to get hurt.”
Being on the same team as his little brother, his personality becomes disturbingly serious. He doesn’t take fighting lightly in the first place, but with his brother in the mix, he takes extra precaution not mess up. If anything were to happen to him or any other of her swords, the saniwa would be sad. And he would move heaven and hell to prevent that from ever happening.
Now if only his master would listen to his request…
Tumblr media
“Enough talking, the enemy is right over there!”
Namazuo gets along well with everyone and he is usually the one who keeps Sadachan upbeat when Nikkari is chosen to lead the team. He’s mainly a follower in this team with the first three swords vying for control but he doesn’t mind watching their backs.
Tumblr media
Flex slots. These two also support Sadachan in keeping his energy up and they follow along with the more assertive swords' strategies just like Namazuo.
Tumblr media
“Aruji gave us our orders. We follow them. End of story.”
Last flex slot. Hasebe joins the team when Nikkari is chosen as captain and the entire team needs to take things more seriously. He does his best to prove that he's useful enough to have a permanent slot on the team, but even if he never gets one, he's just thankful he’s rarely on a team with Akashi.
Tumblr media
I think those are all my commonly used swords. This wasn't actually supposed to go anywhere but I guess my brainworms just activate when it comes to Nikkari asdfanlfkgj

Chasing Waterfalls
Tumblr media
(this gif has my heart (LOOK AT THAT SMILE), creds to the creator)
JJ x Reader
Description: Emotions flow like the water in the waterfall.
Prompts: “I wish I had a boyfriend.” “so what do you look for in a guy?” “real stuff, like the shape of his ass” “So, I found this waterfall…”
Word Count: 1.9k (I’m slacking sry)
“BYE MOM I’LL BE HOME TOMORROW!” You scream as you run from the house.
John B’s was pretty close, and you were about to make today unforgettable. The crew had been down in the dumps thinking that there wasn’t anything new for them to do, it was just the same old same old, but you found something at work yesterday.
You work at the country club with JJ, you both applied together a few summers ago when it was becoming apparent that you needed money to go on all the adventures.
While bussing a table yesterday, the girls behind you were talking about this amazing hike that led to a waterfall that had water deep enough that you could jump off into it. You read the name from their tab and searched for her instagram, sure enough she was public and posted the pictures from the hike with a location tag.
Saving the location you texted the Pogues to meet at John B’s tomorrow with food, proper shoes and a bathing suit. You didn’t want to give too much away but they needed to be at least a little prepared for what you had planned.
Racing onto the property you see that you are the last one to arrive, the rest all sitting on the porch trying to figure out what you have planned.
“Are you all ready to have the best day of your life?” You questioned as you jumped onto the porch with them.
“C’mon (Y/n), just spill, what do you have planned?” Kie asks, excitement evident in her voice.
“So, I found this waterfall, well I actually heard about it at work yesterday, but then I found the location and we’re gonna spend the day there!” You explain, watching the smiles grow on everyone’s faces.
“It’s about an hour and a half drive, but I think it’ll be so worth it!” You finish, slightly jumping up and down.
Everyone smiled and nodded and started packing everything that would be needed for the trip.
“(Y/n),” JJ squeezed you into a tight hug and spun you in a circle, “you have saved us all from extreme boredom, so, you’ve been moved up in the rankings and have become my favorite person, John B you’re now in second.”
“HEY! I thought I was forever at first?!” John B yelled from the van.
“Well I haven’t heard you offering any fun ideas, but you do house me and drive me places, just be happy you're still towards the top.” JJ remarked and grabbed the last load of things to bring to the van, throwing a wink your way.
You met JJ and the rest of the group when you moved here a few years back, your mom ran a convenience store that kept you afloat for the most part, getting a job at the county club helped you guys have a little extra cash after the bills were paid.
You clicked with the group better than anyone thought possible, together you all formed a family and there was nothing that could wedge between you all.
—-
The drive was full of awful karaoke and dances between all of you. The energy was unmatchable, everyone just letting go of the stresses of home.
Quicker than expected you all arrived and gathered the necessary belongings into backpacks before setting off on the small hike to where the waterfall was waiting.
It was a hot day and this seemed to be a popular spot to come so there were quite a few other people when you came over the final hill and laid eyes on the waterfall.
It was beautiful, the water fell perfectly and the water was a crystal blue, speckled with a few other people enjoying the cool water.
The group set up towels and the rest of the stuff in a sunny spot before heading for the ledge that people were jumping off. Kie wasted no time in running to the ledge and jumping off, letting out a yell of pure joy as her feet left the ground, she resurfaces with the biggest smile on her face, calling for the rest of you to follow.
John B, Sarah, and Pope followed, but you hesitated due to the nerves that came out of nowhere, JJ picked up on this.
“M’lady,” JJ held out a hand, offering a little extra confidence with it, that you took before both running to the end and jumping off, not letting go of him until you had to in order to swim back to the surface.
Everyone was swimming and throwing water on eachother, occasionally getting out to jump back in again moments later.
After a good amount of time it was decided to get out and take a little snack and rest break, so the group moved to the towels and relaxed in the warm sun.
Looking out to the water again you watch as a couple clung to each other as they floated around the water, just based on the way they looked at each other you could tell they were in love. Without thinking you opened your mouth.
“Ugh, I wish I had a boyfriend,” eyes slightly widening when it came out of your mouth, but you shrugged it off, everyone wished that… right?
“You know, (y/n), I don’t think I’ve ever even known you to date, have you?” Sarah moved her head up to look at you, as well as the rest of the group now.
“Nope, it’s hard to find someone who can handle me,” you smirked.
It was true, you hadn’t really dated before, sure you had crushes and had been in that weird talking stage before, but nothing ever became official.
You were a very strong willed girl, you knew what you wanted and how you wanted to be treated, and some people just seemed to be turned off or scared of that.
You also currently had a crush so deep that it didn’t really let you see anyone else as an option. As soon as you met JJ it was hard to ignore the butterflies that came every time he brushed your shoulder or smiled so big that it reached his eyes, just the small things.
“What do you even look for in a guy?” Kie propped her head up on her hands.
“Oh you know, real stuff, like the shape of his ass.” You smirked again and looked back at the group to see them all rolling their eyes and scoffing.
“Okay but really, what would it take to sweep you off your feet?” This time John B pushed.
Realizing you weren’t gonna be able to joke your way out of this you shrugged your shoulders.
“I mean, I don’t know. I want someone strong willed like myself, someone who really cares, would be willing to drop anything in order to help someone,” sighing you continue, “he needs to be a good listener, willing to pay attention to the little things. He needs to be able to make me laugh, that’s a big one. Oh! And someone who is giving, not like buying me things, I don’t need that, but someone who is willing to give me their time and is willing to work on things together.” You nodded your head and looked at them all, just staring back at you.
“You want someone the opposite of what your dad was.” JJ locked eyes with you and you felt your smile falter a bit.
“Yeah... yeah I guess.”
Your dad was awful to your mother, always told her that he could have done better, just rude and uncaring. When you were 12 your mother caught him cheating. She packed the two of you up and you left, she didn’t have a destination in mind, just drove until she ran out of land, literally. The two of you happened to stop at a gas station by the ferry and saw a listing for the small house that you two lived in now. She paid for a hotel for the week, got things in order to buy it, and set divorce papers to your father all in that week.
After that you two had started thriving in this new house, just you and her. Of course the divorce got messy, but he gave up custody of you without a fight, so after a year the divorce was final and you and your mother never spoke of him again.
“I learned from my mother what it means to be a strong woman, she taught me what it means to love someone, how to find the attributes of that love in someone else. She also taught me about where she went wrong, I know what traits can quickly turn toxic so when I see that in someone I keep my distance.” You are looking at the ground trying to hold back the tears.
Feeling an awkward silence you stood and plastered a fake smile on.
“I don’t know about y’all but I’ve had enough rest, I’m gonna go jump in again.” Nodding you turned and quickly walked to the other side of the water where the ledge was, where you were slightly hidden from the others.
Taking a deep breath you closed your eyes and just tried to forget about the memories that we’re trying to break through, this was supposed to be a fun day, so dammit you were gonna be happy.
“Hey, (y/n), are you okay?”
Your eyes shoot open to see JJ staring back into your own.
“Uh,” you plastered the smile back on, “yeah, yeah I’m fine!”
“Bullshit,” JJ pushes your hair behind your ear and then takes you into his arms, holding you in a tight embrace, “I’m sorry I brought up your dad, I know it’s a touchy subject, I wasn’t thinking, trust me of all people in our group I understand not wanting to talking about your dad, but you know I’m here for you no matter what.”
He felt a sob shake your body in his arms and held you closer, rubbing small circles on your back, then pulling away from you to wipe your tears.
“(Y/n), I’ll give you my time, my attention, shit, I’d give my life for you,” JJ looked down at his feet then met your eyes with his own, “I hate to see you in pain, let me make you happy, okay?” He smiled at you and you felt a smile grow in your own face, nodding as he wiped the rest of your tears from your cheeks.
He pressed a short kiss to your forehead and grabbed your hand as you two walked towards the original destination.
“You know, as far as the qualities you look for in a guy, I do have to say, I DO have the best ass around,” he looked at you, causing a short giggle.
“Eh I dunno, could use some work.” You tried to hide your smile as you passed him, your hand reaching out slapping his butt as you sprinted for the ledge, hoping he wouldn’t be able to catch you.
He caught up to you at the very end, grabbing your waist before you both launched off the cliff.
After landing in the water he kept his hold on you, you both just floated together, you head resting back on his shoulder.
Maybe he would be the first boy that passed your test, the one to finally break down your walls.
Only time would tell.

Stray Kids Rising and Midheavens | My Guesses
I haven’t made a post in a while and Stray Kids stole my heart at the beginning of 2019, making this a cute way to celebrate my first year with the boys~
Disclaimer: These are not confirmed and purely my own theory and opinion. Feel free to share your own guesses and opinions with me; I’d love to get a discussion going!
Chan | Sagittarius Rising | Virgo Midheaven
Sagittarius Risings are adored for their bright demeanor, their wide smiles and infectious laughter. With an athletic frame to match also, I feel Chan fits this rising sign best. He always tries to maintain an optimistic attitude and sees it as his duty to spread cheer and relief to everyone around him. His Sun and Moon could also be possibly placed in his 11th House then, further showing his altruism and selflessness towards both loved ones and strangers as he sees the world, on a whole, as his community. A Virgo Midheaven would make his priority in his career to be to help others. Chan is always trying to spread positive and empathetic messages through his music and vlives and is incredibly honest about dark topics that a lot of idols shy away from. He is incredibly kind and selfless, working himself tirelessly to help his fellow members and his fans. The combination of sunny and energetic demeanor with a hardworking ethic and kind heart for everyone around him has me believe Chan to be a Sagittarius Rising and Virgo Midheaven and we truly don’t deserve this sweetheart.
Alternative Guess: Capricorn Rising
Tumblr media
Minho | Gemini Rising | Pisces Midheaven
This boy is such a tease so it can be easy to place him as a Scorpio Rising, especially with all his Scorpio personal placements. However, I felt his unpredictable nature fit Gemini more. One minute, he’s chatty and joking along and then completely shuts up the next. Air risings are also mistaken for flirting when often it is just their sense of humor, and Minho is the master of teasing and creating tension only to laugh right in your face when you actually get flustered. Gemini Risings are associated with having more narrow or dainty features due to Mercury influence, and Minho is a very pretty boy whose features are less intimidating but rather delicate (his hands are almost as small as Felix but everyone seems to forget that lol). Gemini Risings have a sense of mischief to them, with innocent smiles that look as though they’re plotting their next prank. Not the sultry smirk, but the naughty child’s grin. A Pisces Midheaven may pursue careers in the arts and they often have a natural flair for creativity, being able to tune into their imagination and sensitivity to the world around them. They are talented artists and musicians and we all know how great of a dancer Minho is!
Alternative Guess: Scorpio Rising
Tumblr media
Changbin | Scorpio Rising | Leo Midheaven
Changbin’s deadpan neutral expression and intimidating presence has me convinced he’s a Scorpio Rising. Each Scorpio Rising I know has deep, intense eyes and strong bone structures with prominent jaws and chins, which we all know is one of the things that his members like to tease relentlessly. They’re always shrouding themselves in dark clothing too; “I love dark”. His Mars and even Pluto could be placed in the 1st House also, adding to his scary yet sexy image. He’s the kind of person that leaves an impression on others, usually one of intimidation or superiority and it has been noted by the members that he stood out particularly in training for his intensity and dedication. Mars in the 1st can also indicate someone who is athletic and this little fluffer right here cannot get enough of himself and his muscles (I hate him and he’s my bias ffs). Mars in the 1st can also indicate someone who tends to get injured often as they are rough or careless with themselves, and Changbin is too clumsy for his own safety sometimes. A Leo Midheaven would have him pursue creative or entertainment careers and I think that one is self-explanatory! It also shows that he has a confident and amicable public image, making him popular with his peers and desired by those outside his social circle, which we can see in his friendships with other idols such as Wooyoung from Ateez. He wants to be a leader or role model to others, to set a good example and constantly push himself to become even better. Essentially, a born entertainer who seems to flourish most in the spotlight.
Alternative Guess: Aries Rising
Tumblr media
Hyunjin | Pisces Rising | Sagittarius Midheaven
Though he’s known for being just a little bit overdramatic, I believe Hyunjin could be a Pisces Rising with his Pisces Sun in his 1st House and Mercury and Venus conjunct the Ascendant. This would explain his dreamy visuals and animated expressions that we all love dearly. Pisces risings always have an ethereal beauty to them, with their eyes noted for being especially captivating. Stares so intense but not in the same way as a Scorpio, no, Pisces risings look as though they’re lost inside their daydreams. Maybe its just me but Hyunjin almost looks sleepy sometimes, as though he is hypnotised by something. He has a grace to him, beautiful without even having to try, and that Venus conjunction alongside Pisces would only make this stronger. A Pisces rising is sometimes labelled shy but I believe that if his Sun were placed here too, it would explain his confidence and bubbly nature. Hyunjin’s giggles are addictive and a Mercury conjunction would make for someone much like a Gemini rising in that they can be lively and expressive, which he also seems to have no problem doing too with his inability to hide his excitement or disgust at anything, which we love him for.
Alternative Guess: Leo Rising
Tumblr media
Jisung | Leo Rising | Gemini Midheaven
This boy stumped me as I was deciding between Leo or Aquarius. I settled on a Leo Rising thus an Aquarius Descendant. I felt this suited Jisung as he is labelled as one of the most extra members who if you can’t see, you can definitely hear singing in the background. Needless to say, this boy can be very loud and lively yet insecure and unsure of himself also, needing validation from others as he puts on a show to entertain everyone (note: skz pls give him the reactions he wants T-T). I also think that his Moon could then fall into his 8th House, and despite how bubbly Jisung is, he does have his moments where he lets his guard down and we see how much he has been holding back emotionally. Only recently he opened up about his distress with crowds but there have been other moments where he has revealed personal worries, such as the time he discussed his experience with depression and how he uses it to try transform himself for the better and now he can appreciate the small things in life more. I also think that due to interceptions and duplications, Jisung could have a Gemini Midheaven, which further explains his flexibility and adaptability to take on any role required. Main rapping? Check. Dancing center? Check. Hit that high note beautifully? Check. Gemini/Mercury are both also associated with communication and therefore careers involving writing can be popular for them; Jisung is involved in the writing and production process of all of Stray Kid’s songs and has become more confident in his abilities over time. With Gemini’s nervous and hyperactive mind too, it can explain why this little cutie can get so caught up in his head that he ends up forgetting his own lyrics and choreo sometimes!
Alternative Guess: Aquarius Rising
Tumblr media
Felix | Cancer Rising | Aries Midheaven
Felix screams ‘big babyboy energy’ to me. His squishy cheeks, tiny hands and plump, pretty lips? CANCER RISING. Seriously, he’s so pretty and it makes me want to cry. His childlike demeanor and touchy nature show how soft he is, coining him the cuddly koala of Stray Kids. Despite his playful nature, he is also very sentimental and the members have even called him the most serious member, showing that he carries a sense of care and sincerity to everything he does. He’s been noted by the members for being extremely thoughtful of those around him, giving lots of gifts and spreading love and warmth as the sunshine of the group. In this sense, Felix is simultaneously a caretaker and child. He is full of passion and enthusiasm, always throwing himself into everything with a fighting spirit. Once settled on his goals, he goes after them with everything he’s got, even if the odds seem against him. To move abroad to pursue music when not even speaking the language might even seem impulsive to others, which is key to any Aries placement. His Aries Moon in the 9th or 10th House could also make him keen to explore and be very headstrong in his decisions. He tries to be optimistic and places a lot of his happiness on his success and growth from where he started, and with how far he has come, he should be so, so, so proud of himself today.
Alternative Guess: Libra Rising
Tumblr media
Seungmin | Capricorn Rising | Libra Midheaven
I honestly think Seungmin is one of the most mature looking members, especially for being the second youngest of the group. He has very handsome features and has been known to resemble many of his seniors, including my bias Wonpil from Day6. Capricorn risings tend to be self-conscious and may mask their insecurities with humor usually of the deadpan or ‘savage’ kind - rip Changbin. They’re constantly pushing themselves to improve and will do with the strength and determination few can match. Seungmin has already achieved so much in his short career (e.g. picking up a new language in just three months and co-hosting a show through it) and yet he forever remains humble about all his hard work. His patience is unmatched too and no matter how excited he gets, he still knows when to be serious and put his head down. He doesn’t see the point in talking in circles when you could be getting the job done. When you compare him to the rest of his members, he is honestly one of the most mature and he really deserves more recognition for his strength and talents because he’s terribly underappreciated. A Capricorn rising is their own biggest critic so please show him more love.
Alternative Guess: Virgo Rising
Tumblr media
Jeongin | Libra Rising | Cancer Midheaven
Maknae’s tend to get away with a lot of things, but Jeongin just has this extra charm to him that makes everyone whipped for him. This angel can do no harm, surely? rip Changbin once again. Libra risings are natural beauties noted for their symmetrical features, and Jeongin has such lovely and balanced proportions that I can’t help but be envious of. Libra risings are smart in social situations and can navigate conversation with ease, often sweet-talking others to bend to their will which Jeongin has no problem doing with his hyungs. No matter how cunning they can be, they hold an aura of innocence that you find it hard to fault them for anything really! Jeongin has been described as the member most likely to make you smile, and Libra risings aim to please everyone around them. Harmony is key and they get very upset at any kind of conflict, hating the thought of picking sides. Jeongin is very much a team player and has a different type of bond with every member, each relationship unique in their own ways. They can attract more dominant people into their lives (Aries Descendant) and the person that comes to mind first is Chan, who seems to have a particular soft spot for his little brother. Just another things to note is that male Libra risings can have feminine features or mannerisms or appreciate more traditionally Venusian aesthetics, and Jeongin has stated on multiple occassions that his favourite colour is pink! He even goes so far as to saying that its ‘a boy’s colour’ and he always looks so beautiful and himself when wearing it.

She gives lily a few fries in the car. She thinks briefly about driving it over the bridge. She puts on her sunglasses, pushes off the media circus and goes upstairs. 
There was the momentary panic as she took in the pressure of restraints and distinct lack of Indy. The last thing she remembered was a kiss, a reassurance, and blonde...She took in her brother sleeping across the room but she didn't relax any. 
 Ryan didn't quite understand where they were, or what happened yet. Watching the rise and fall of Indys chest, she at least could see he was exhausted. She lost track of the time until she heard the distinct approach of footsteps she had recognized even in her half aware state. The sleek dog at her feet heard it a second later as he stood up, his stump twitching happily until the blonde walked in and a dog like him.
They don’t search her anymore and she gives the officers on duty a bag for themselves. Lily bursts into the room, excited to see her brother and the dogs reunite happily. Julien sets her bag down and the bags of food down. Ryan finally was awake. 
 Something is off and to her surprise indy is asleep and ryan is awake. 
She blinks mechanically and she brings the food to the dark eyed woman.  Ryans posture was tense as she tried to sit up, staring the blonde down. Julien doesn’t like the gaze very much. She takes the bags to set them beside Ryan at the smaller table. Unlike with indy, she has no protocol, no familiarity and she’s unable to read the other. She swallows as she grabs a small packet of fries for adolf and gently disburses them to the dogs. 
She puts her sunglasses down next to her purse and she hopes indy wakes up soon to in effect help smooth her in, but no such luck. She gives the same rigid mechanical smile. “My name is mrs perita.” The ring on her finger burns in sharp betrayal of her words as she pulls up a seat to sit neatly to mask her sudden onset of nerves. Ryan looks far too much like her brother.
She made the blonde nervous. Indy said this woman had nerves of steel, but right now she looked a little more like gold. Metal at first glance but malleable and easily scratched. 
She didn't calm her posture as she glanced at her brother, warning the woman not to wake him up, "The lawyer." Her voice hurt from lack of use "I know," She added as she tugged her arm a little. A silent way of asking for the binds to be removed. The blonde heard the familiar tug. It echoed somewhere in a vast open space in old memories and she pulled a clip from her tan suit to carefully start with the metal locks. She acknowledged the statement with a nod and she undid the straps as well. 
Ryan was tense and she waited till each restraint was off to lift her arms and rub at her wrists. They were slightly swollen and tender to the touch. She looked at the food bag, her stomach was growling. Adolf was wearing the fries sleeve on his snout and julien hushed his whining as she stepped back to push the food closer to Ryan and to get a cup of water to help with the hoarseness of her throat. The initial shock wears off and she sits again. Ryan took it slowly, reaching inside for the fries first, her tastebuds telling her she wanted the salt.
"Thank you," She said firmly as she ate a few. "For helping us..." She added, meaning the gratitude was for more than the fries. Julien is quiet as she reaches over to pluck the fry sleeve from her dogs nose. Adolf looks at ryan but the blonde gives a stern look until he sits at her feet to beg with his eyes instead. Lily lays by him. 
Julien nodded complacently as she folds her scarred hands, left under right. “No need to thank me. Your case was exceptional. I had to take it to ease my own curiosity.” It was the first case she had taken in well over three years since Eddie had taken her life and her husband's request for a separation had prompted her to find an outlet for her frustration with her personal life and a way to channel her self destructive energy. “May I ask what indy has told you?”
Ryan ate slowly, letting the salty taste linger before she swallowed each bite. There was more reasons the lawyer was here than she was letting on. Only someone as insane as they apparently were would take to the chance to defend them. She glanced at her brother when his name was said, "Not enough." She replied. Letting Adolf lick the residual salt and oil from her fingers. Glancing at the blonde again, "He only tells me that we're gonna be okay."
The extra fries seem like a good choice. Ryan seems capable of putting away as much food as indy does and she makes plans to bring more for them the more Ryan recovers. She can tell by the subtle twitch across Ryan’s features that indy has when they omit something. She doesn’t say anything about that and instead focuses on nodding. 
“He is correct. What do you remember so far during your stay here at the hospital?"
Ryan wasn't one to censor herself. She had been broken down too many times. It was her job as a soldier to give any and all information required to her superiors, which in her mind Julien was. She chewed and swallowed. "Lights...I remember fighting at some point. I remember being x rayed, then MRI, then ultrasound. Then I was alone for...I'm not sure how long. And I remember the dogs. And then you, you moved us here," She listed off clinically. 
The list helped immensely. Unlike indy, ryan gives information freely and she looks at him briefly.
"How long have we been here for?" 
She’s not sure if he’s slept in ages. She knew he would dislike her taking advantage of the situation, but she brings her phone out to record their conversation. 
“You have been here a total of four months next week.” 
Ryan pauses in eating and her jaw flexes against her will. Four moths. Too long. If they had survived in here that long then Julien had to know more than Ryan would have suspected her brother to reveal. She relaxed her jaw, closing her eyes for a second when there was an ache in the top of her spine before she began on the chicken pieces Julien had brought.
Julien spun her ring around her finger a minute as she collected her thoughts. “I’ve collected my own evidence. I also took precautions to protect your items. When the trial is over the items will be returned.” She had kept one photo. It was in her bag as she would occasionally bring it out to remind herself of them and that they needed someone their side. “I also retrieved your vital medication and have ordered a supply in advance to be administered to you under the guise of anti seizure medication.” 
She thinks of viktor. She thinks of the video. Her anxiety skyrockets and her nails bury into the soft palms of her flesh and she presses them instead to the seat to conceal the motion. “May I ask you about the seizures?”
Ryan didn't touch her neck where she normally wore the titanium ring shed once worn. Shed wanted to throw the damn thing in the river when she had lost Stan but Indy kept it and she had cherished it in the end...Regardless she recognized that first look of a token that weighed with a lifetime of memories that someone didn't want for a second on the blondes face. 
She gave Julien a moment of privacy as she focused on her food, glancing at Indy again, counting the seconds between his breaths before she could divert her attention, "I don't think I need to give you permission. If you need information ask.”
“Even if you are my client, you have the right to decline information,” she reminded the woman with the near sharpness of the knife. She can’t imagine Ryan reciting the awful details out loud. As much as she lives with her own memories of the compound, there is a distinct difference between the abuses. She can draw a fat line where they end in similarities. “I advise you to exercise that right when you need to. As the question went relating to your seizures, can you tell me when they first started?”
Ryan absorbed this information but she didn't respond, she finished her chicken and put the box in the bag with the fry box. Flexing her jaw again before she answered, "I took a fall from a rooftop. My spine fractured and healed too quickly. Its part of my modifications. There's a bone buildup at the base of my skull, it creates pressure when the point is too stressed it causes a seizure." 
Indy and her had been stretching it out every night to try and help with the problem, it had scared them both the first time it happened and she shifted. It only hindered their life on the run and she couldn't remember but it may have been the reason they were here.
The genetic modifications. 
“From my understanding, both of you are modified.” She understood that Ryan had been just a sort of prototype. “The healing effect is too quick,” she stated aloud more so to herself then Ryan as she finally frees her nails from the soft flesh of her palm before returning to the motion to think. “Thus the serum. I understand the circumstances around this were incredibly unfavorable. You lost your husband around the time you were modified.” She digs so deep she knows she’s bleeding openly as the images keep flashing behind her eyelids every time she blinks. She feels her anger boil up. The face from the video had a name now. 
“There is little to nothing about Stan except a photo and a ring. Even when I subpoenaed the district for the marriage license there was none to be found."
The soldier nodded, “I was failing. Indy joined the program to keep me going. I needed him.” She was honest, “He's as fast and as strong as me, he sees better in the daylight.” The sun hurt her eyes sometimes but her night vision was unmatched. 
There was the first betrayal of emotion and discomfort as she listened now. 
She was silent for a moment. Counting Indys breaths again trying to calm herself, “Your timelines wrong.” She corrected, “I knew Stan before the elite forces recruited us.” Her tone had changed, the slightest strain now as she flexed her own hand, “We married when things got...difficult. There would be no record. Indy and I aren't supposed to exist, they wouldn't put us on paper anywhere.” She stopped as she took a small breath at the pain in her neck again.
She blinks. That made sense. Her mind connects a few dots and her timeline begins to shift into different possibilities. She pauses when she notes the discomfort. She knew she had to gather sealed records. After Ryan was eighteen any other evidence disappeared. She had videos, photos —  adolf begins to whine as he props his paws up on the bed. “May I help?” She wiped her hands on her suit without thinking as she stands. 
She had seen indy do it Ryan’s sleep, adjusting and adjusting, the only problem is execution and strength. She’s sure she cannot match them.
Ryan squeezed her eyes closed for a second, her mind hurt. She forgot for a moment where she was, "Stan...no..." She almost called for him. But then she remembered he was gone. She breathed harshly through her nose. "Hurts," She said through grit teeth, refusing to open her eyes.
Her eyebrows knit a brief second and she thinks about the head trauma indy had told her about. She puts a knee up on the bed as she warns Ryan, “I’m going to try to help.” She delicately pinches the base of the skull. She recalls the way indy grasps Ryan’s neck and she knows her hands are too small. So she uses both to focus the pressure on where she thinks it should be. “Is this okay?”
Ryan shoulder tenses but she doesn't strike out, opening her eyes to watch Juliens movements. The hands on the back of her neck were foreign. They were too small, but they were hard and the fingers dig into the knotted muscle and bone, "Wh-where--" Ryan didn't recognize these white walls. “You’re in room with your brother,” she stated immediately. The lawyer remembers the crash of the man being so easily thrown into the wall. Julien knows something like that would probably kill her. She keeps kneading the muscle. “He’s asleep because he’s tired and he’s been worried about you.” Somehow she thinks talking ryan through will help the situation.
Ryans breath is quiet but short and fast, her eyes forcing over to see her brother sleeping across from her. For a split second she thinks he's dead and her arm tenses again before she sees his chest rise and fall. Her head dropping back slowly into the hand squeezing it, "Hospital--n-no we need to be..." She couldn't remember where she needed to be. 
“You need to be here until you’re both okay.” 
She doesn’t mention the trail. She doesn’t mention that she needs to make them human in the eyes of the jury and she feels ryan relax a little bit. Adolf gives a soft whine and he hops up into the bed to crawl up to ryan on his belly. She continues even when her hands hurt, she’s sure when she knows to stop she can.
Ryans breathing leveled out slowly. The pieces came back and she finally went back to her silent breath, she felt a tremble in Juliens hands and reached up to touch the blondes arm, “Thank you” she said this more quietly. She had shown weakness and she hated herself a little bit for that, “Sorry its....” she sighed, “It's hard to talk about him. I miss him, but ill tell you whatever you need.”
The touch makes her stop her movements and she nods as she returns to her seat across from the other. “I’m sorry for your loss.” It’s the first words that come out of her mouth. She wouldn’t press the subject anymore, not after that. “I will ask when I need it. Can you feel the seizure before it happens?” There were signs and now she’s going back to medical questions where it’s safe.
The phrase was a reflex and held no depth, but something in Juliens eyes. She knew the lawyer was sorry. She swallowed. She was exhausted now but she nodded, "If I'm focused on it yes I can."
Julien nodded. She herself can feel her edge dying and she instead gets up from her place to retrieve the photo of Ryan with Stan. “I’m going to have to bind you again before I leave,” she tells the other. Adolf crawls towards Ryan’s feet to lay on them. “Adolf is your dog for as long as I am your lawyer.”
Ryan was obviously not thrilled about this, "Will you leave them looser?" She asked softly. Shifting to let the dog settle more comfortably. She had said thank you enough times so she nodded slowly. She was sure Indy appreciated the company, maybe she would too.
She returns with the photo and she puts it directly into one of Ryan’s hands so she can hold it before it must be hidden again. “Yes, i'll ask for accommodations to be made as well.” There was swelling on both of their wrists and shed demand padding to make it less painful. Julien waits to gauge Ryan’s reaction.
She squeezed the smooth photo paper, it was like she knew what it was before she even looked. The edges of the photo were faded and there was a crease from where it had been unfolded and folded a hundred times. She was seated on the edge of a helicopter, one she had flown once upon a time. Indy leaning on the edge with his arm crossed, and Stan, The broad man seated behind her, crouching a little to hug her shoulders. Every one of them smiling, at that moment in time they didn't have a care in the world even in the middle of a warzone. If she had still had tears they would have been in her eyes. She stared a second longer before she took a breath. Thanking Julien with a look.
“Hide it,” she urged the other softly. She’d keep the ring safe, but she would return it to the chain it belonged to around the place it should be hanging. She lifted some of the straps and started organizing them before lifting the ones for Ryan’s wrists. 
Ryan looked at Julien. She understood she was a lawyer, she was meant to help but this was a whole different level. Ryan couldn't understand someone caring, "You should bring burritos next time, Indy likes those, and one for yourself." She couldnt help the words as she tucked the photo under her thigh where she would still be able to reach it.
She wants to smile, but she doesn’t. “I can’t chew,” she states in embarrassment, “but I’ll be happy to bring burritos next time.” She puts one of her fingers in between the space of Ryan’s wrist and her binds to ensure good space without giving away they’ve been undone more then once. “Thank you Mrs West. I assure you I will do my best to serve you and your brother.” With that she puts the cloth straps over the other and she steps away, not liking how her stomach is turning and she puts the remaining food by indy before picking her bag up and whistling to lily.
No one had served them before. Her and Indys entire lives had composed of debt, of being trapped by things they couldn't control, jumping from one form of slavery to another. "Goodbye," She said it to be nice, she was aware she might not be present the next time the lawyer was there. 
She sighed and rested her head back. "How long have you been awake?" She asked her brother when they were alone.
“Enough to know our lawyer can’t chew,” he stated when she is gone and there is utter silence. He chuckles a little bit about the bag and it rustles as he inspects it. Wendy’s. Good choice. He spits out the picking mechanism julien had given him and he unlocks himself. They’re on a schedule. The next visit won’t be until one in the morning to make sure they’re okay and have water. He can easily tell she’s upset. “You guys talk about anything important?” Even if he is hungry he moves the bag aside because Ryan takes priority and he goes to her to undo what julien has just done.
She shifts as he undoes her before she sits up to lean on him, she was aware he had been close, but she had been somewhere and she wanted him here while she could remember. She silently pulled up her leg to pull out the photo she had been gifted. Showing it silently to Indy as she hid half of her face in his white shirt.
He stares at the photo in utter silence. There’s only one place she could have gotten the photograph and he observes. He gives it back to ryan as he puts an arm around her shoulders with a nod of is head. Julien was a good person. “You gonna be okay?”
The tell tale flex in her jawline, turning her head then readjusting at the sharp ache it caused, "You need to eat." She reminded him as she eyed the bag of food then made space for him to sit next to her
He hummed in her non response and avoidance. He grabs the bag and he goes to sit with her. The fries are cold, but bountiful and even cold fries are better than hospital food. He gets an arm around her shoulders and he squeezes her to his side as he eats.
She rolled onto her side, her head resting low on his chest so she could watch the door under his arm as he ate. He did enough guarding while she was down she needed to return the favor, stealing a small kiss to his stomach between bites so he wouldn't choke.
He chuckles a little. His fingers leaf through her hair and he rubs at her scalp with the bit of nail he does have to ease her. He eats the small burger and he finished the fries, except for one which he pokes Ryan in the face with. He’s still her older brother despite everything.
She was focused on watching the door. Listening to the hospital run outside, they had guards on the door, she could hear them talking to each other, the rubs to her scalp really only helped her focus more. The fry pulled her out of her stupor and she turned her head carefully, twisting more in her shoulders to glare at him as she bit the fry dangerously close to his fingers, tucking her picture safely under the pillow they were laying on.
Indy was satisfied with her reaction to the fry. He poked the side of her face with his finger to rub the salt and oil on her skin before becoming still. He could stay all night in her bed. His head hurt a little from sleeping too much. He kept his arm slung around her shoulder and he keeps his hand in her hair as he listens too. It’s all very mundane but it’s still very much a prison.
Ryan was getting antsy. Now that she was aware just how long they had been here trapped in beds, "Do you really think she'll be able to help us?" She asked, shifting against him as if that alone would vent out her excess energy.
“I didn’t tell her about anything,” he stated confidently as he is shift her more so on him. He had told her about the serum, the modifications, Stan. Really he only gave information about Ryan’s seizure and that she had a plethora of health issues. Julien had delivered. 
“She must have found the safe house."
Resourceful. That was evident enough, "I don't want to be in here" She muttered against him as she settled, her eyes still trained on the door, her neck tightening as she felt her stress level rise slowly.

Bathroom Renovation Weymouth
Let Us Help Turn Your Idea In A Reality Weymouth Property Contractors
Interesting Bathroom Designs
Want to change your dull and gloomy bathroom into something worthy of praise and admiration? You can change it into something that you can be proud of with a modern bathroom design. No longer is the fusion of fixtures like a tub/shower, sink, toilet, and cabinet with mirror the gold standard in bathroom design because today’s bathroom designs for small spaces are a lot more chic and sophisticated. Majority of popular small bathroom design ideas are creative and contemporary, making us rethink what a bathroom should look like. You will see the toilet and sink attached to the wall, Maximizing the available room and creating a new look to the bathroom. Cabinets no longer have doors and if they do, glass designs are often the way to go. Trendy simple bathroom designs can make the biggest splash to a small bathroom with the use of bold patterns and textures. Modern designs and layouts are completely changing our perception on what our bathroom should look and feel like. You might struggle coming up with a unique design that suites your bathroom needs and desires especially if you’re a newbie who doesn’t know where and how to start. In case you get stuck in the process, you can consider hiring an expert contractor in Weymouth like Dorset Home Improvement Contractors to give you some much needed guidance.
Let an experienced contractor be in charge of the drawers and counter-tops in your bathroom remodeling
Calling in a contractor is the smart move you can make in case your planning to put up a bathroom extension that entails new cabinets and counter-tops. The main benefit in allowing an expert contractor to manage all the needed work in installing your cabinets and counter-tops is unmatched convenience. An expert builder like a contractor has all the needed proficiency, tools, and technicians to set them all up a whole lot quicker and easier than you can ever imagine accomplishing on your own. By doing superb work on the cabinets and counter-tops, a contractor can also bring the best out of your bathroom and house extension ideas. What’s more, you can simply tell the professional home builder what your house extension cost would be and they can pair the best vanity options to your bathroom if its a bit smaller in space. They will even match the perfect countertop designs and deliver the right balance to the area. Plenty of people would agree that the cheapest way to extend a house is by following a DIY(do it yourself) job and if ever your considering one, remember that it will only be effective if your working on a small bathroom. If you want to work on a larger bathroom, your better off working with a master craftsman like Dorset Home Improvement Contractors. The best and finest workmanship, that’s what we have consistently delivered to all our clients in Weymouth, and we can do the same if not more for you if you call us today!
Employing a contractor is your best choice
You could be right to presume that the cheapest way to extend a house or the bathroom, is to proceed with a DIY(do it your own) job. Nevertheless, it truly will be a tough one to succeed on. For instance, setting up a shower all by yourself is a tall order especially when your creating a personal shower pan and wall with tile. A DIY(do it yourself) project is certainly a possible option, but majority of people will favor the work of professionals for such a challenging ordeal. Working on a pre-fabricated shower stall could be a job possible for a DIY but nevertheless, this task will still ask you to have at least some basic skills and understanding on how it works. And if you really think about it, majority of home extensions will follow the same requirements if not even higher. There’s also a chance that you will attain a permissible outcome if you decide to do the refinishing of your tub or shower yourself. But with the help of a contractor, the results are just exceptional, mainly because they can conduct the entire prep work on a higher level. In the end, you can benefit tremendously if you allow a qualified contractor in Weymouth, to work on every aspect of the project, as much as possible.

The workstations are largely dependent upon processors but in video editing softwares gpu also play an crucial role in generating unique effects in videos. Applications and games for PCs are usually created and distributed independently from the hardware or OS manufacturers, whereas computer software for numerous mobile phones and other portable systems is authorized and distributed through a centralized on the web shop.12 workstation is a high-end microcomputer designed for technical or scientific applications.

On the other finish of the spectrum, industrial workplace desks and legal desks have much more generous proportions, extra leg space, multiple drawers, and at times even an attached bookcase to generate ample space for storage. Workstations generally support much more more rapidly CPUs, far more memory modules and larger challenging drives than laptop systems, and their components are much less expensive. NOTE: Z620 systems configured with E5-1600 series or E5-1600 v2 series processors might not add a 2nd processor. Performance Advisor permits works to get a consolidated report of their workstation’s hardware and application configuration and makes it possible for them to tune their system particularly for expert application in a handful of straightforward actions employing a quite user-friendly and intelligent interface.
