Blood and explicit content

The more time passes, the more you feel helpless in the captains chambers. The air of desolation was almost breatble.

The clown lights a cigarette and offers to you after he takes a deap puff. He blows the smoke looking to you. "No?" He asks, you just denies with the head. "You don't smoke?"

"Just not in the mood." You say and try to change the subject. "I heard lots about you, good things, of course."

"Of course..." The clown captain lick his teeth. "What they say about me?"

"A merciless pirate from the east blue, one of most... the most feared of all pirates, a power to be recognised." You analize him searching for some positive reaction, but you got none. "That you have the most dangerous and trickery of all the fruits... and someone to be taken with care because there is so much more potential, a potential that just a few can see."

"Keep."

He was falling for your praise. His eyes shine with some werid glow. You even wonder what was on his mind, but knowing his personality, you know your tactics were doing the right job. The clown started to smile at some point.

"Last time I was in a marine base to take some berries, I heard a talk about you. The commander was discussing a 30 million bontry to your head. But they were afraid to lose the soldiers, the foolish mariners that decided come after you."

Buggy takes another puff and lets the half-smoked cigarette in a pile of wanted posters. "Then you decided to come after me?"

"No. Of course not. Was in this very moment I understand your potential. It would be suicide come after you. I'm not that fool."

Your story was true, except the last part, you decided to come after him and the rising bountry. But it was a good way to cath the clowns attention . He fell again to your praises.

"So, tell me." The clown comes closer, looking deep in your eyes, that look that could kill. "Why there is no bouty hunter after me, if this store are actually true?".

You feel the blade in your back, sharp and ready to cut you deep right in the lungs. You gave another look to Buggy. His other hand goes as well, probably holding some pistol waiting for the right second to shoot.

Then you take a long breath and think about a good answer, a real answer, that one he could confirm with his subordinates.

"The big hunters travel to the grand line. The ones who remain here are just small fishes. They would not risk their life's in that way for a bountry that is not that high, as they do in the grand line..." You take a minute. "or in the new world. "

The knife picks harder in your back. "You know about the new world?" He asks.

"I was born there."

"And do you want to go back?"

"Of course. But for that, I need to join a strong crew."

Buggy approx more, he reached your lips with one of his fingers, you know where is the second hand now. "And, you think about mine?"

"Yes."

"You're lying to me... Young..." You feel death aproxes you, the iron forcing your spine. "With all other ships around here, ones that have come from that seas, you think about me?"

"You come from there." The answer was fast. "You born in the grand line. I know it."

You were going to add something about 'freaks like him being born in the grand line', but at this moment, you understand. There was something more than trying to keep yourself alive. There was some feeling.

"And I know..." You think carefully. "Something calls you back, maybe some great treasure?"

"Yes, maybe." The captain was liking your words. Maybe he got something with treasures.

"So. That's why I'm here. That sea also calls me! There is nothing left to me here."

"I feel you. Young." You feel Buggy hand in your face, tracing gentle your features, almost lovely.

The captain's hand examined you, teeth, hair, if you didn't have any hidden gun. Lucky you never hide any, all of them every time in sight as advice to violent pirates.

With eyes close, you make a silent pray to be acept in the crew.

And you were.

"Wellcome to your new home, young. I hope you find yourself well among the crew." The clown smiles in a diabolical way. As a criminal, he is, you know that in the second you drop your guard, you're dead. But by now, you'll play by his rules.

I take longer than I expected to write this part. It should be a bit bigger. The college is killing me 🥲🥲.

But very soon, there will be the rest of this chapter .

MEXICO CITY (AP) — The U.S. government thanked Mexico for arresting a hyper violent alleged Sinaloa cartel security chief, but according to details released Friday, the detention may have been highly personal for the Mexican army.

Defense Secretary Luis Cresencio Sandoval said Nestor Isidro Pérez Salas, who was arrested Wednesday, had ordered a 2019 attack on an unguarded apartment complex where soldiers’ families lived.

“He was the one who ordered the attack ... against our dependents, our families,” Sandoval said.

The Oct. 17, 2019 attack was a result of a humiliating failed effort to capture Sinaloa cartel leader Ovidio Guzman, one of the sons of imprisoned drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman. Pérez Salas served as head of security for Guzman and his brothers, who are collectively known as the “Chapitos.”

Soldiers caught Guzman but later were ordered to release him to avoid bloodshed.

In order to pressure the army to release Guzman, cartel gunmen had surrounded the army families' housing complex in Culiacan, the capital of Sinaloa, and sprayed it with gunfire. They took one soldier hostage, burst into four apartments looking for more potential hostages, and tossed in two hand grenades that failed to explode.

The army had apparently relied on an unwritten rule that soldiers' wives and children were not to be targeted. “It was an area that was not even guarded,” Sandoval said.

In January, when soldiers finally managed to detain Ovidio Guzman, Pérez Salas also allegedly participated in setting off violence that left 30 people dead, including 10 military personnel.

The army was forced to use Black Hawk helicopter gunships against the cartel’s truck-mounted .50-caliber machine guns. Cartel gunmen hit two military aircraft, forcing them to land, and sent gunmen to the city’s airport, where military and civilian aircraft were hit by gunfire.

Sandoval revealed Friday that there had been a special operation that day to get Pérez Salas, but it failed.

The army continued to follow his movements, and later tried to detain him a second time, but “he was able to escape,” Sandoval said.

The third time was a charm; video posted on social media showed that Pérez Salas was surrounded but managed to climb onto the roof of a house before he was caught Wednesday.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration had posted a $3 million reward for the capture of Pérez Salas, though it was unclear if that will be distributed to the army and National Guard forces that caught him this week.

President Joe Biden issued a statement Thursday praising the arrest. U.S. prosecutors have asked that Pérez Salas be extradited — as his boss Ovidio Guzman was in September — to face U.S. drug charges.

“These arrests are testament to the commitment between the United States and Mexico to secure our communities against violence, counter the cartels, and end the scourge of illicit fentanyl that is hurting so many families,” Biden wrote.

But it appears Pérez Salas's arrest was personal for the Mexican army.

“He was also responsible for a series of attacks against military personnel that caused a significant number of casualties,” Sandoval said.

Pérez Salas is wanted on U.S. charges of conspiracy to import and distribute fentanyl in the United States. But he also allegedly left a trail of killings and torture of police and civilians.

An indictment in the Southern District of New York says Pérez Salas allegedly participated in the torture of a Mexican federal agent in 2017. It said he and others tortured the man for two hours, inserting a corkscrew into his muscles, ripping it out and placing hot chiles in the wounds.

According to the indictment, the Ninis — the gang of gunmen led by Pérez Salas and Jorge Figueroa Benitez — carried out other gruesome acts of violence as well.

The Ninis would take captured rivals to ranches owned by the Chapitos for execution, it said.

“While many of these victims were shot, others were fed, dead or alive, to tigers” belonging to the Chapitos, “who raised and kept tigers as pets,” according to the indictment.

And while the Sinaloa cartel does some lab testing on its products, the Ninis conducted more grisly human testing on kidnapped rivals or addicts who are injected until they overdosed.

DOESN'T MEET THE CRITERIA FOR HATE CRIME CHARGES?

WTAF is wrong with law enforcement. Not only was there white on black violence perpetrated by at least 4 white people vs 1 black man but one white guy said he was going to get his gun.

THE HATRED IN AMERICA IS STILL RAMPANT.

A Message from Founder/Executive Director, Cynthia Brian

Besides, hot, hot, hot, how is your summer going?

The news consistently brings us images of violence, devastation, and impending doom. It’s simple to become cynical, yet it’s better to combat the negativity. Stand up for the truth to give yourself the gift of positivity. This is a gift that no one else can give you: not a parent, friend, partner, or boss.  Only we have the power to be positive.  Our Kindness Coordinator, Karen Kitchel, believes in bringing joy to others. She writes: “Positive feelings are often the result of doing little things that bring joy to others. Think of a time when you did something for someone who never knew where that kindness came from. How did you feel? If nothing comes to mind, check out some easy ways to scatter kindness." Great advice is to always help others.

In my book, Be the Star You Are!® Millennials to Boomers, Celebrating Gifts of Positive Voices in a Changing Digital World, along with 31 contributors, I write about the importance of positivity and play. If you haven’t read it, this would be the time to pick up that book for the critical positive messages it delivers.

Play allows us to develop our imagination and discover our strengths. Children who are allowed to play while utilizing their own resources shape healthy bodies, minds, and spirits. Play teaches conflict resolution, instills a sense of self-esteem, helps with communication skills, encourages imagination, and builds confidence. The benefits of recess are significant. Playing is pleasurable, and who doesn’t need more amusing days?

I am often asked how I can nurture family relationships, maintain a large mini-farm, take care of numerous adopted animals, run a non-profit charity, write new books, and work full time. “Aren’t you working too hard?” and “It must be exhausting” are the main comments. My answer is simple and always the same: Absolutely I get really tired, yet I love what I do. I’m still learning how to pace myself since it is all play to me.  Every day I’m entertained, educated, and contributing in a positive manner. It is important to not only make a life but to make a difference. No cynicism allowed.

For a memorable summer and beyond, incorporate play with positive actions at home and at work. You will find yourself happier, healthier, and a beacon of positivity.

“We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.”

George Bernard Shaw

Stay cool and have a positive, playful summer.

Gun Violence and Control

In the past months, mass shootings and gun violence have shattered lives and communities. Gun violence in America has become an epidemic. Three of our Be the Star You Are!® teens shared their views on a radio broadcast. Hannah, Nihal, and Sharanya addressed several issues from a youth perspective.

.

Stricter enforcement of gun control measures is a necessary step to address the alarming prevalence of gun violence. By implementing comprehensive background checks, closing loopholes in gun show and internet sales, implementing waiting periods, regulating high-capacity magazines and assault weapons, enhancing mental health assessments, and promoting responsible gun storage, we can foster a safer society for all. It is crucial for lawmakers, communities, and individuals to work collectively towards achieving a balanced approach that respects the rights of law-abiding citizens while prioritizing public safety. By taking these actions, we can reduce the devastating impact of gun violence and create a brighter future for generations to come.

One of our poets, 14 year old Sharanya, wrote this poem reflecting on the effects of gun violence in society. Sharanya is a BTSYA volunteer and radio host on Express Yourself!™

Gun Violence

by Sharanya

In the depths of shadows, a sorrowful tale,

Where hearts bleed silently, where souls assail.

A poem of anguish, of lives torn apart,

Of gun violence rampant, piercing through the heart.

In streets once serene, now echoes of strife,

Where dreams turn to nightmares, snuffing out life.

The crackle of gunfire, a symphony of fear,

Leaves scars on communities, forever austere.

Innocence shattered, like fragile glass,

As the world bears witness to this tragic impasse.

Families weep, grieving their loved ones lost,

Their futures stolen, at such a terrible cost.

Oh, the tears that cascade, like a ceaseless rain,

As we mourn for the fallen, their loss a searing pain.

Each name etched in sorrow, a reminder profound,

Of the lives extinguished, no longer earthbound.

We yearn for a sanctuary, a refuge of peace,

Where gun violence ceases, and anguish finds release.

A world united, where compassion takes hold,

And the power of love is the story retold.

Let us rise together, hearts intertwined,

To confront this plague, leaving no soul behind.

Through dialogue and understanding, let us strive,

To heal wounds inflicted, and ensure all can thrive.

For every life lost, let a legacy bloom,

Of change and redemption, erasing the gloom.

In unity we stand, with a resolute voice,

Against the devastation, we make a choice.

Let this poem resound, a call to unite,

To end the senseless violence, to make things right.

For in our shared humanity, we find the key,

To heal the wounds of gun violence, and set hearts free.

May this verse be a plea, a beacon of hope,

That gun violence diminishes, like a darkened slope.

With compassion as our weapon, let us unite,

And in our unity, we'll conquer the night.

NEW FREE PROGRAM: TEENS TUTOR TEENS

Be the Star You Are!® charity is thrilled to collaborate with the Georgia chapter of Teens Tutor Teens to bring FREE tutoring for any child or teen in grades K-12 by highly motivated high school students. Since the pandemic, many students are behind in the basics of reading, math, science, and writing. Once a student requests to be tutored, a TTT Georgia chapter tutor will claim the tutee to help and contact them to set up a meeting. From here, the tutor and tutee (or their parent/guardian), can communicate on future meetings, additional help, academic, advice, and anything else that the student may need or that the tutor deems necessary. Be the Star You Are!®will soon have a direct sign-up form, but for now, students can sign up on their own to get free tutoring from a tutor through https://teenstutorteenslawrenceville.weebly.com/get-tutored.html. The chapter secretary will reach out to the student asking for age verification, just for safety and security purposes for both the tutor and tutee. Then, the student is connected to a tutor, and tutoring sessions will begin at times that work for both parties. We want to support youth academically and are thrilled to be able to partner with Teens Tutor Teens. Make sure when you sign up to indicate that you are from Be the Star You Are!®.  As soon as we have a a special BTSYA link, we will share it.

she did not have to look down to see it was a lot of the gore that was dripping down , she could feel it. well , she didn’t really feel much , as she was going numb. the source of where she had been shot is unknown , though golly that was a lot of blood. if she had been more aware , she knows she would have been apologizing for the crimson river sprouting from her side , though she is not in her right mind , so she does not focus on this matter. “ o—okay , i t—trust you. “ valerie whispers , as she really did not fault the girl , though she did wonder why she was carrying a weapon. she might have to ask , but not in front of anyone , never ! she did not wish for holly to get hit with charges. why was she so worried about holly when she was the one near death ? it is because even if , she is not that person to be angered.

it was not ideal , no , but it was an accident. jack would look at her like she had gone insane , how she was not bothered she had literally been shot. he would fly into a rage probably at holly , as he would see this as another thing that was unacceptable. why did she worry so much about his reaction ? he couldn’t be mad at her for this , even if she was at herself. she was sneaking around a bit , and it was dark .... she sighs as she finds she cannot even muster a bit of anger at this.

“ s—-shhhh , it is o—-okay , d—dear one , shhhh. “ she soothes , continuing to stroke her cheek as she cried. she didn’t want holly to regret this , as she was scared , and she did react. she smooths her hand against her skin , finding it to be something that she can feel , something real , since it seems her hand has been released. as the other took off her garment , valerie was struck with how cold she would be , or was it just her ? she does not know really , her eyes heavy , but she does not sleep. she keeps her gaze up , on the girls sorrowful face. she gasps again when the material is flush against her side , near crying out , yet she is still as she allows the girl to do as she wishes to.

timidstrcngth​:

her world was turning to a haze , her mind blank as she did what she could to register anything. it was …. dripping from her side , down to the ground to feed the soil with morbid water. it was so … warm though , and sticky. she has had the taste before in her mouth when she would split her lip open from her constant biting it , but … the wound was probably much larger than that. a voice … her name ? she cracks her eyelids open to peer at the other , head tilting to the side. “ i w—-was … w—-worr—-worried…. “ she states , even now concerned for the girl more than herself. why was she making a fuss ? and why did she look so terrified ? the poor dear ….. the hold on her hand causes her to limply compress hers back , though it is barely there. why was holly so sad. with some effort , she brings her hand up to the girl’s cheek. “ do not c—-cry. “ she mumbles in a daze. she gasps in pain , though does as she is told. half lidded as they are , her trademark doe orbs stay open. she tunes into the voice of the other , swallowing thickly ; she did have a nice voice ….

she wonders if this is what jack meant , by people taking from her what they could. or how she was too easy to be so docile all the time. no , the girl did not mean to harm her , even though valerie found her to be the most terrifying person she has ever encountered. naive as she was , she would have seen the signs , and jack and mallory would have surely kept her away.

she gazes up at the other , her fingertips still on her cheek. she gently strokes her way across there , finding she has something to focus on. was she comforting her ? probably , as the way she was so sad …. brows furrow again as she blinks , slowly and with some difficulty.

Holly’s panic continued to rise as she noticed the blood oozing out of Valerie’s gunshot wound. She hit her in the side of her stomach and she had no idea if she hit any major arteries, or any organs. All she could see was lots and lots of blood, and poor Valerie’s face slowly turning pale. “It’s okay, you’re gonna be okay, I called an ambulance, they’re on their way here, they’ll be here soon, I promise”, she rambled, speaking a million words an hour just to keep her own mind busy and not think about what she did. 

She shot Valerie. She just…shot her. Like a criminal. It wasn’t on purpose, but did it make a difference? She was bleeding out on the ground and she looked so white in the face. She was so caught up in the horror that she blinked in surprise when Valerie reached up to touch her face and told her not to cry. What? Holly didn’t understand, she assumed Valerie was just mumbling things because she was losing so much blood, she wasn’t coherent. 

“I’m so sorry, but I…I have to stop the bleeding, okay? I have to”, she announced, quickly taking off her sweater and pressing it against the open wound that was still bleeding out. She was worried that if she didn’t do this, Valerie would lose so much blood it would be too late to save her. She could tell that it hurt, though. She could tell by the look on Valerie’s face, this was too much for her. Surprisingly, she wasn’t crying. Maybe she was in shock.

'End gun violence now!' - Bedoya makes passionate post-goal plea to on-field mic

After two more mass shootings in the United States, the Philadelphia Union midfielder delivered a message to the U.S. government

from Sporting News RSS https://ift.tt/33bMaQT from Blogger https://ift.tt/2GMTUPX

[secretmellowblog]

So anOTHER thing about Javert: I remember once seeing an odd tumblr post (months ago?) that said something like “I can’t believe you guys hate Javert when if Javert existed now, you would say he was the best kind of cop. He’s a POC and comes from a marginalized background and has to struggle hard against bigotry. He’s also perfectly honest and incorruptible— and so nonviolent that he never physically attacks anyone or even pulls out a gun. He’s the perfect police officer”

And while that post was wrong...it was also right!!!!!

The point of Javert is not “the cop you already think is bad, is bad.”

The point of Javert is “the kind of cop you think is GOOD, the PERFECT cop, the hero of a detective novel, the cop you’re told is an example of how the system can sometimes work—- is bad.”

Javert is essentially a Perfect Cop Role Model(tm) character like Captain Holt from Brooklyn 99, but as a villain. 

The message of Javert is that “An honest non-brutal incorruptible cop who adheres perfectly to the rules, from a marginalized background who knows what it’s like to be on the receiving end of police violence and is policing people from the same background as himself...................................would still suck!!!!!!!!!!! acab”

I know I’ve talked about this before, but I do want to go into a little more detail on the way Javert coming from a marginalized background/Javert not being physically violent* is a part of this under the cuT:

I’ve seen people say that the “only” way to modernize Javert is by making him rich and white, but I disagree...or at least, why my opinion is that it really depends on how it’s written? Idk it’s complicated!  I just think that even putting aside the fact that an argument can be made that Javert is ambiguously implied to be Romani*** in the Brick, Javert only “needs” to be white if you think that only white cops can be bad. And I feel like that’s a relevant topic lately-- the idea that people often undercut the “all cops are bastards” message by amending it to “all cops are bastards uNLESS they’re ‘diverse’ cops, unless they’re marginalized in some way.” And I think Javert could be an interesting criticism of that idea-- he spent most of his early life as a victim of police violence, and then became a ‘perfect’ cop. But that didn’t make the police force better or more progressive, it just meant that Javert ended up hurting people who came from the same background as him. Being marginalized yourself doesn’t mean you can’t hurt other people like you.

(Edit: although I am not Romani and shouldn’t be treated as an authority on this. A lot of the coding on Javert is both very ambiguous and if it is intentional it’s just racist, because Hugo himself was racist didn’t really think through the implication of the coding he was using.)

I also wish Les Mis adaptations in general were more thoughtful about how they used brutality. Les Mis adaptations often make Javert far more physically violent** than he was in the Brick, but don’t put thought into WHY they’re adding that violence.

The point of Brick!Javert is that he is an unusually good/perfect cop. Part of Javert’s perfection that is that he isn’t really physically violent** (there’s an important caveat to that though, I’ll talk about it in a second.) Le Cabuc is perfectly willing to whip out a gun and shoot random unarmed people, but Javert doesn’t do that, because he’s unusually perfect. Javert isn’t even physically violent to defend himself-- Thenardier points a gun at his head, and Javert calmly talks him down. The students catch Javert at the barricade, and Javert (despite having a musket) peacefully surrenders.

But the point isn’t that “Javert is therefore a perfect person you should admire.” The point is that even though Javert is the rare police officer who isn’t excessively brutal, he is still a violent person-- because the laws he’s enforcing are inherently violent. Separating families is violence, bigotry is violence, imprisoning people is violence. The absolute worst example of this is the way he kills Fantine. Javert didn’t need a gun to kill Fantine; the violence of bigotry and the law was enough.

My problem with adaptations of Les Mis is that they make Javert more brutal/violent in order to portray him as an unusually bad and violent cop, unlike the other Peaceful Good Cops. If only Javert enforced the laws more peacefully, he would be good, the way most police officers are! (Les Mis 1998, BBC Les Mis). Other adaptaions add Javert whipping out a gun and threatening to murder unarmed people without seeming to understand that they’re changing his characterization (Les Mis 2012/some performances of the stage musical.)

So instead of Javert’s problem being that “Javert enforces laws that are inherently violent,’ his problem in adaptations is that “Javert is too violent and emotional and over-obsessive while enforcing laws that are ultimately Good.”

Idk like........everything about Javert is Complicated and a mess and open to a bunch of interpretations, and I don’t know how to end this Post(tm). But just feel like there’s so much nuance to Javert’s character that gets overlooked by adaptations in favor of portraying his pursuit of Valjean as Personal Vendetta, which is sad because he could be so relevant and compelling if written well

Doom: Is it too violent?

I wanted to do this Essay due to the fact that people say: Oh video games are too violent And cause violence.

(Keep in mind this is based on what I remember or have researched barely.)

True Doom is not the most child friendly of games, and one of the school shooters did play doom. BUT! That doesn’t mean that Doom and other games like doom cause violence in real life. For example, Japan. They have the MOST time played in video games, and the Least amount of gun violence in the world. (At least from what I’ve heard) And the whole phrase of: “Video game violence bad” kinda trend even gets to Sonic, a game aimed for children! This is based off my experience as a little child, but my mom was so worried about my well being that she fell under the suburban mom tremd of video game violence that she took Sonic Heroes, Shadow the Hedgeho, and Sonic Mega collection plus away from me and made me ONLY play Super Monkey Ball Deluxe, which she viewed as the least violent game that I owned at the time. But this kinda died down and I eventually played these games again. Then Halo came and Me and my brother played it. Aaand the only one who got “violent“ is my brother’s attitude when he got older. And me during puberty sometime, but that’s a different story.. ^^;

So, what makes people violent?.... Well, I believe that it’s the fact that people’s mindsets are... different. We have different ways of being violent, it can be physically violen, emotionally violen, or psychologically. It depends on people’s opinion, childhood, views on life, all that. Take for example, any serial killer that was born BEFORE THE LATE 70’s! They didn’t have video games at all! It’s based off mindset and how they view life, Not on what video game they played and whether if it was violent or not!

So if you are one of those people who STILL think that playing video games are violent. I believe I may have convinced you other wise.

Or not, I dunno. @queenofwerewolves suggested that I did this and I dunno how much I can ramble on. XD

Prompt 19 - Glittering

Hastswys surveyed the damage with a grim look on her face. “Damn it all, look what those bastards did to the caravan. If you rounded every damn Serpent Reaver up, you wouldn’t find a shred of humanity in any of ‘em. Lisbet! You find any survivors?”

A highlander woman poked her head up from behind a pile of wreckage. “Not a one, Hastswys. They were nothin’ if not thorough.”

“Bloody hell,” muttered the Roegadyn. “This is a job for Maelstrom proper, not a Free Company like us.”

For Orara, it was a lot to take in. She’d seen plenty of violene before, but it always seemed to have a purpose; Amalj’aa raided supply lines for goods and prisoners, thieves in Ul’dah were after money, and even monsters that roamed the land were usually out to protect themselves or their food. But the Reavers hadn’t taken anything from these wagons, they’d simply killed who they could, smashed it all, and left. 

Violence for its own sake was something Orara couldn’t and wouldn’t understand.

It wasn’t a large caravan, only about two or three wagons with a small handful of guards. There was only one Reaver body on the scene, so whatever had happened had been decisively in their favor. They’d attacked from behind a rocky outcrop, most likely, and did their dirty work as quickly as they could, fleeing before Maelstrom of the Yellow Jackets could find out.

The cloth covers were torn, the wood splintered, and the chocobos that had drawn the wagons lay in the bloodied mud. Drivers were gutted, guards were cut down before they were even able to draw their weapons, in some cases. A grim scene of violence malms away from Limsa.

“Why even do such a thing?” said Orara, thinking aloud. “What’s there to be gained?”

“Fear, mostly,” said Hastswys. She neared Orara with folded arms, her jaw set in frustration. “The Sahagin don’t want our goods, they just want us dead. Scaly piece of shite.” She spat on the ground, still glaring.

Orara had never seen her like this. Usually, Hastswys seemed determined to counteract her brother’s lack of humor with plenty of her own, but there was no bright side to be found in this slaughter.

“Go and find Ibe’ir, Orara,” she said, tilting her head towards the scene. “Doubt he’s found anything worth stayin’ for. Ain’t no reason to stay, we’ll let Maelstrom command know what we found.”

Orara nodded, taking special care to give the bodies that remained a wide berth. It just seemed respectful.

“Ibe’ir! We’re leaving!” she called, casting her gaze side to side. “Ibe’ir! Where’d you go?”

The sound of metal on metal answered Orara, and she automatically drew her gun. “That you, Ibe’ir?” she said, slowly advancing on the sound. “You better come out before I fire a warning shot.”

He finally emerged, holding his hands high in the air. “Why is your first answer to everything to shoot at it?”

“Sometimes the threat is enough,” she said, holstering her weapon. “Come on, let’s go. Hastswys says there’s no reason to stay here, and I agree. This isn’t really...” She trailed off, looking over the wreckage again. “This is beyond us, I think.”

“Yes, I agree, we should go. So go on, I’ll catch up,” said Ibe’ir, waving her away. “I’ll be right behind you!”

Orara’s hand went to her gun again as she narrowed her eyes. She’d seen that guilty look before on thieves back in Ul’dah. That look when they know they’ve been caught but were hoping against hope that you’d look the other way just this once. “What did you find, Ibe’ir?” she said, stepping forward. 

“Nothing! You’d know as well as I this was just a food shipment, Orara.” He stood in her path, but Orara simply pushed him aside, stepping past him.

“You’re an awful liar, Ibe’ir,” she said. And an awful person. Hidden underneath an intact tarp was a thick metal chest whose lock had been struck off. With the barrel of her gun, she lifted the lid, exposing a gleaming pile of gil that had either been unseen or ignored by the Serpent Reavers.

Orara rounded on him, still holding her gun. “The hells do you think you’re doing!” she hissed. “Stealing from the dead?”

Ibe’ir’s panicked expression finally became something else, a mixture of indignation and coldness that made Orara’s hair stand on end. “Maybe. What of it, lass? They ain’t gonna object, you know. Whoever investigates will just figure the Reavers took it. Nothin’ wrong with makin’ a little extra for my hard work.”

“What hard work? Looting bodies? Almost dying to Kobolds?”

For a moment, the Miqo’te laughed, but it quickly turned to a sigh. “You know, I’m startin’ to get real tired of you,” said Ibe’ir, tilting his head back. “The whole righteous act was cute when you got here, but it’s gettin’ to be a right pain. Limsa ain’t a place for heroes, you know. Someone ought to remind you-”

His words were cut off by the bullet that hit the ground only an ilm from his foot. Ibe’ir jumped back, eyes wide. ���Bloody hell, watch where you point that thing!”

“Next time I won’t miss,” growled Orara, lifting the gun again.

“Orara? Ibe’ir? The hell was that?” came Hastswys’ voice. She and Lisbet quickly came into view, weapons drawn. “We heard a shot, what happened?”

For a tense moment, Orara and Ibe’ir stared at each other, each daring the other to speak first. Orara was trying to figure out how to word her accusation when Ibe’ir spoke first.

“Orara spotted somethin’ creepin around the trees over there, she says. I think she needs her eyes checked,” he said. “Ain’t safe to be carryin’ a pistol when you’re not sure what you saw.”

“I know what I saw.”

“I’ll bet.”

Hastswys stepped between the two. “Whatever happened, I wanted us out of here five minutes ago! So pick your arses up and get movin’!”

“Aye aye, captain,” said Ibe’ir, slinking away. A tense cloud formed over the four as they traveled back to Limsa- even Hastswys and Lisbet seemed to understand that something had happened while their backs were turned, though they didn’t ask.

Orara chewed on her lip as she watched Ibe’ir’s backside. She knew this kind of person could be dangerous in any sized squad, if only because that attitude could be infectious. She hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, but she heard the tales of what happened with that Crystal Braves group. Better to cut out the rot while you still could.

As they walked, she caught a glimpse of Ibe’ir looking over his shoulder at her. She though she saw a smirk on his face, and she carried the anger it set alight in her all the way back to Limsa.
