“I left a monarch. Yet I return naked, alone… hungry.” / i guess grima!rajya

Mr. Sandman, Man Me A Sand

“You are not powerless. Hunt for yourself. The wilds hold all the furs and meat you could need. Every moment you waste to self-pity is a moment you are not fixing the problem!” he growled. The Lord of Hunters tossed the pitiful creature a knife. It was a well-crafted but also well-used tool. It had had much time to become reliable. It would serve her as well at it had served him.

“Go. Hunt.”

@grimhymns asked for a starter! 

   It’s cold, here, hauntingly -- so desperately frigid that it feels like the tips of her hair are shaking, bowing before it. Eyes half-open, staring upwards at the figure above her. “Armor? I don’t... what is it?”

💕from serana, def platonic.

They had stopped to take a break in a small glade nearby, their feet weary from the plethora of walking they’d managed. Lorelei had dismounted her horse hours ago to allow him to take it easy on the road, and now they were all relatively tired.

She is tending to their campsite while she waits for Serana to return with firewood as requested. When her ears catch the sound of the other woman’s footfalls, her her gaze lifts, a smile following in its place upon the sight of the heap of branches that the vampire has collected. “Ah,” she greets, satisfaction evident in her voice, “that will be more than enough to kindle a fire through the night. Thank you.”

She approaches in order to take the load from her companion, but not before leaning forward to plant her warm lips softly upon the crease of Serana’s cheek. “You’re a doll.”

“Do I look like someone who wants to hurt your feelings?” / for kagero from... kotaru, i guess?

      “ Do I look like someone who trusts easily? “

Kagero retorted. The woman’s eyes were lined with sleep deprivation && even as she replied to Kotaru snarkily, she still regretted it pretty fast. she shook her head, opening her mouth to quickly get out an apology but it was too quiet for the other to hear. She knew Kotaru had out the best interest for her, knowing fully that the other cared for her. 

But that still felt like a foreign concept. 

      “ My apologies��� I suppose I should get some sleep. “

“ko...kotaru... is that you? you... you mustn’t get too close... i... don’t know what, but something... is wrong.”

@grimhymns ( kotaru ) should probably come back later. ♡

❝ I have never been so delighted as I was today. ❞ from rajya !

𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 ,  lucina sits in front of her mother’s feet at the fire ,  feeling her fingers wind and unfurl the ribbon in her hair that she’d braided through it that morning .   even though they had gone into town so she could buy her mother a gift ,  it felt as if lucina had been the one to receive one instead ;  she had felt prettier that morning than she had since childhood ,  and spending the day with her mother was something she had dreamed of .

her lips curl into a soft smile ,  head turned downwards ,  and cheeks slightly flushed .

❛     that pleases me more than you know .   i feel the same way ...   even though today was meant to be about you ,  it feels as if i’ve been given a gift instead .     ❜

❝ You shouldn’t eat right before bed. ❞ / from rajya

   …caught. 

   you shift a little guiltily, wondering how the older woman caught you sneaking off to the kitchens this late at night– and what she’s doing up to begin with. a soft flush tints your cheeks pink, and you want to proclaim that it’s bold of her that you plan on sleeping to begin with… but you don’t. rajya-san is kind to you, and reminds you of your mother back in japan. she doesn’t have yasuko fujiwara’s boundless energy and pep, but she is strong and unfaltering– protective. a fighting spirit who doesn’t give up. 

   you think you wouldn’t have adapted to this place as quickly as you had if rajya-san hadn’t taken a liking to you. ( you’re not sure why she did, when there are so many people here who are more deserving of her love and affection. )

“i can’t sleep,” you admit after a long moment, setting the eggs down on the kitchen counter with a sigh. “it’s… i start dozing off, and then i just start thinking about… stuff… then i’m wide awake again. i thought, maybe… if i made something to eat, it’d help me calm down…”

“I got your back.” / from kotaru, for takumi !

Protective Starters - Accepting! - @grimhymns

“………” Takumi looked up at the other, hands on his lap as he sat in his wheelchair. He hated it, but he needed someone to have his back. He couldn’t do much in his current state. He needed to relearn how to fight in a wheelchair, but his siblings wouldn’t let him. Not yet. So, he simply nodded, keeping his gaze away from the other.

💝give me mikoto-kotaru fluff please

smooches | i’ll accept a couple more bc it fluff night || @grimhymns

��- a plationic kiss

       Since Kotaru’s return, the queen found herself worrying more than ever. Some might consider it odd, but they would not have seen the princex’s state those days ago. Any mother would find themselves heartbroken by that sight, knowing her precious child had suffered during so many years of absence. 

       If only Mikoto could have protected them. If only she could have done something…

       But now, she can focus on helping her child as much as she could. Ryoma and Yukimura could handle her duties until she was sure Kotaru was well on their way to recovery.

       Old habits reigned supreme as Mikoto checked on her child one night. Unable to find rest herself, her steps unconsciously took her to the princex’s room. She stayed in the doorway for a handful of moments before gingerly venturing inside and placing a motherly kiss on the crown of Kotaru’s head.

       ❝ Sleep well, my sweet child. ❞

He hadn’t long returned to the camp after a long relaxing meditation, and was now ready for pretty much anything. He had, however, felt a presence of someone whilst looking over some war scrolls that had recent strategies and plans for the upcoming battle, and it caused him to speak out. He didn’t look up to see who it was, he just spoke whilst reading.

❝Is there something I can do for you?❞

“It’s all right. So wake up. Please wake up. Please…” / from Meridia because i guess its angst baby

Mr. Sandman, Man Me A Sand

The Wolf huffed a shallow breath, trying to clear the blood from its throat. It snuffled at Meridia’s chin, wondering what could have her so distraught. Was she hurt? It couldn’t smell any of her shining ichor out of place. The Wolf was tempted to drift back into feverish sleep, but it resisted. It couldn’t leave Meridia alone in her distress. The Wolf crawled forward with its front legs, leaving a trail of dark red in the dust behind it, and rested its head at the crook of her neck.

@grimhymns wanted morgan so here u go here’s the kiddo

Arms heaved a pile of books around the Ylissean camp as Morgan tried to find her way to her tent. She decided it’d be better to study them alone where she couldn’t be bothered instead of somewhere out in the open. Of course she knew people like Odin or even Severa would come to annoy her, which was why she was trying to avoid them at the time. 

She almost ran straight into Rayja, managing to just barely see her over the pile of books in her arms. 

      “ Hey! There you are! I wanted to study these       books of yours if you don’t mind. I didn’t mean to       take so many. “
