The Prospect-- Pt. 02-24: "Really Nice!"

For the entire archive, please click here! --> https://prospect.thecomicseries.com/   Dull in appearance it might be, the replicator is one of the most common and most useful pieces of remnant technology. First discovered back in 8201 remnant replicators were put into use onboard capital ships as a means of recycling waste organics into more useful foods. While this alone was considered very helpful for long-term voyages across space, research suggests that the containers these food products are dispensed in are shelf-stable for possibly hundreds of ship-years; permitting a ship with a well-maintained hydroponics system can operate in the void nigh-indefinitely at the cost of a surprisingly small amount of energy. Because of the extraordinarily complicated coding system for these remnant devices, the only available recipe databases have either been recovered from ruins or copied themselves. Acquisition and maintenance is still an expensive process so most replicators in public use are a novelty item to attract planet-dwelling tourists and individuals with expensive culinary tastes. - I'm going to have to really figure out how to handle the painting stuff. This one once again took too long. Still, I like Clinton's happy light in this page!   My Patreon--> www.patreon.com/billblok God Bless!

In I Love You, Mario Testino presents a celebration of weddings. A beginning in life ―that is also a culmination and a public promise – captured by a unique photographic point of view which shows beauty not only in emotion and tradition, but in the complete intimacy of shared joy.

Featuring essays by the illustrious fashion designer Carolina Herrera and party expert Riccardo Lanza, the book traces Testino’s memories of many iconic moments and many unknown ones, captured in the privacy of close friendship and family. Unparalleled access unveils the secret, the tender, the wild and the festive of such celebrations, some of which can be considered the most talked-about unions of the past four decades.

I Love You is a homage to weddings and to everything they comprise. A love declaration and a glimpse into the heart of brides getting ready, special rites among friends, the zest of extraordinary parties. Every image showing the unique fantasies of a life to start anew.

"LONG LIVE LOVE!"

― Mario Testino

Rare Pair week!

Warnings: fluffy goodness

Pairings: 479er and Carolina 

This is also my first ever post on Ao3

                                             Missing Pelican

  The hanger isn’t a quiet place, but activity certainly picks up a considerable amount when the Freelancers show up. They’re on the hanger floor less than three minutes and in that small time slot, all hell breaks loose. Things get placed in the incorrect order, or on the wrong side of the hanger altogether, people forget what they’re supposed to even be doing, even the- wait. “WHERE THE HELL IS MY SHIP?” 

  479er stared, dumbfounded, at the lack of her ship in the hanger. It was five minutes to wheels up and her ship was missing. And not one single incompetent soldier could do more than offer a nervous shrug as an answer.

  “Out,” Niner instructed, her voice quivering, “get out, all of you.” If they didn’t leave immediately they were at risk of losing their lives, she was that pissed. “GET OUT!” Everyone dropped what they were doing and 479er decided it was time to get the spare ready for flight on her own. If she had to spend another minutes with morons, she ran the risk of being too angry for flight. 

  Things ran smoothly when it was just her and the pelican, and she was ready to leave before the Freelancers arrived. But the minutes passed and no one arrived. What was going on? Why was nothing going smoothly? This was so unlike any experience she had with Project Freelancer in the past.

  Niner leaned against the ship, her arms crossed, staring at the hanger entrance. Three minutes later Carolina appeared. 

  “What are you doing here?” Carolina asked, “and...” she looked around, “where is everyone?” Carolina crossed the hanger and Niner raised her brows behind her helmet. 

  “Well, my ship is missing, nothing is where it belongs, you’re all late, and I told them to leave. I probably would have shot them otherwise. Idiots.” Niner’s eyes narrowed, “where’s the rest of your squad?” 

  “Oh they’re around. Probably in the mess hall right about now.. I gave you the wrong day and moved your Pelican to Hanger Five.” Carolina removed her helmet and revealed a quirky smirk played on her lips.  Once again, Niner was dumbfounded. 

  “You set all this up?” 

  “I’ll walk you to your pelican,” Carolina said, her voice laced with amusement. How else was she supposed to get a little alone time with Niner? 

  “You know I almost killed people over that ship,” 479er informed Carolina when she conceded and pushed off where she was leaning on the spare pelican. 

  Carolina hooked her arm around Niner’s shoulders and kissed the side of the pilot’s helmet vizor. “Would it help if I said sorry?”  

  “You could just find simpler ways to break the rules,” Niner said, removing Carolina’s arm from her shoulders with a shrug, “or we’ll both be without a job.” This made Carolina laugh, and the foul mood that Niner was harboring evaporated. Carolina was lucky. If anyone else tried that they’d be shot. Niner finally removed her helmet and pulled Carolina in for a quick kiss before they moved through the sliding doors.

Happy valentines!! 💕💕 💕

Niner and Carolina talk being older sisters, maybe make out, i don't know man, live your truth

Neither of them were really cuddlers. In some ways, Carolina respected that. It was relieving to not have to worry about a partner being discomforted as she drew away from touch and, just maybe, kicked them out of the bed for more leg room for herself.

In other ways, Carolina grew concerned that, just maybe, it meant that they were missing some draw. She wasn’t entirely sure how to explain it to Niner.

At the very least, Niner didn’t seem to share her concerns. Instead, the other woman laid comfortably on her back, eyes toward the skies, hands crossed against her stomach.

There was a snarky twist on Niner’s lips as she looked out above. It was the kind of detail that Carolina kept finding herself drawn to.

“You know,” Niner said fondly, “I used to take Mikey out at night, tell him the name of every star I remembered.” There was a depth in her eyes, a certain mistiness, as she leaned her head back and shook it slightly. “Those were his favorite times, I think.” Her eyes slid closed. “Thought. I asked him if he remembered any of them recently... he didn’t even remember what we were talking about.”

Carolina never drew her eyes away from Niner, instead propping her head up to see every angle of her face.

“Epsilon,” she said softly.

Niner at last opened her eyes, turned them toward Carolina expectantly. Carolina just ran a hand through her hair and sighed.

There was still a burning in her chest every time she mentioned the AI, but she had to. She had to let Niner know, she wasn’t alone.

“When it was just the two of us for so long, he used to watch over me. Project from the suit and sit over my shoulder at night, make sure I was safe... never left me alone...” she closed her eyes, breathed. “At first it didn’t seem like such a big deal but... the longer we went, the lonelier I saw him be... the more I felt so guilty about him having to stand over me all night. So I stopped sleeping as well, stayed up longer. It hurt my performance on missions, but... it was better than the guilt. I thought so, anyway.”

She opened her eyes, saw Niner’s full attention was on her. 

“You know how he started to help me sleep again?” Carolina questioned.

Niner shook her head.

“He used to tell me about the stars we could see from Chorus,” Carolina said, looking up. “And when that got too repetitive, well, he told me about every star you could see from the moon. Earth’s moon. And I remember, one time, I finally asked why he knew so damn much about the stars from the moon.” She looked to Niner. “He said to me, ‘Caboose told me stories every day and every night when I was in the Epsilon Unit. He told me everything he knew, everything important. That’s why I know about the stars from the moon.’“

For a long moment, it seemed like Niner wasn’t going to react. Finally, though, she leaned up, rolled herself closer to Carolina, and pressed her lips against Carolina’s.

Carolina fell back into it, letting Niner kiss breathily against her and curl her hands around the well of Carolina’s back

And when Niner stopped, curled into Carolina’s side, and buried her face against the Freelancer, Carolina took the lead and wrapped herself around the pilot.

“Thank you for that,” Niner whispered.
