AU in which the gang gets together again at the end but i get to pull fingernails off jay merrick in return
au under the cut
I've said it before but the operator is an otherworldly creature, a metaphor for mental illness and probably is unable to feel anything. But I wholeheartedly believe he is jay's number one hater. If we think of it as a leech, it tries to take and feed on people that are like, worth the fight. No need to waste the energy you won't get back.
So in this AU the gang came together at the end and literally made themselves not worth the fight with, I'm not kidding, the power of friendship and prescription drugs. Strength in numbers and allat.
BUT once again, in this AU the operator evolved due to sheer hatred towards jay and is now able to feel rage. To extents i deem comedic nothing more. So it hunts jay down nonetheless
So as long as jay keeps doing the things to keep the operator away (socializing, taking meds, ignoring it) it can't seriously harm him (except for a few nosebleeds, headaches or nightmares).
But jay DOESN'T do all that, instead, now that he is somewhat safe, he tries to figure out how to get rid of it permanently and keeps bumping into it
Cue the ghostbusters/sally face shenanigans in which i put jay merrick through even more horrors and the gang has to save him time and time again
#marble hornets#jay merrick#tim wright#happy ending au#i thought i should finally flesh out the AU so here u go#listen i don't kin jay but every single injury i had i give him#broken nose busted lip broke knuckles missing nails#babygirl you're getting it all#the gray background arises once more all hail the gray background

Meraa, this is a very small question I'm sorry if its weird or anything, but js asking, do you have an au where caleb and evelyn get a happy ending? I CANNOT WITH THE ANGST ANYMORE IM GENUINELY CRYING.😭😭😭
Yes! Good ending AU where they both move over into the B.I. and Philip works with Evelyn on Demon & Human realm collaborations together. Evelyn writes her book on humans with Philip's help and Philip explores the history of the B.I. :) Caleb is a palisman woodcarver! :D
The three of them go on adventures together to explore the mystical past due to Philip's expiditions and he can't do it alone.
Pip and Evelyn get ahead of themselves in excitement, despite Caleb's mother-hen warnings; often resulting in Caleb having to be the one going "I TOLD YOU SO, I SAID IT WAS DANGEROUS, BUT NOOOOOO. YOU TWO NEVER LISTEN." and have to pull them out of trouble with his Odysseus-like wit.
Philip has the yellow cardinal as palisman! :D
Caleb and Pip also use their human ingenious to invent things like this:
All in all, a good time. :D <3
Happy ending is my fave I think.... :''')

The Pendant
Summary: A Pendant holds memories, but can it bring back your happiness?
Word count: 6461
Warnings: Sentimental but practically no one
Adar x Female Elf Reader
Inside the dimly lit tent, Elrond sat tense yet composed, his gaze fixed on the unsettlingly calm Adar. The distant crackle of fires and orcish murmurs filled the night outside, but his thoughts were solely on Galadriel, held captive nearby, as you and two elven guards stood watch behind him.
“You must release her,” Elrond demanded, his voice low but edged with urgency. “This fight is between us. She has no part in it.”
Adar’s lips curled into a bitter smile, his scarred face barely illuminated by the firelight. “No part? She is woven into the very fabric of this world's decay, just like you, Herald. Her light dims as the shadow rises.”
Elrond stepped forward, eyes hardening with resolve. “You may have twisted your own kind, poisoned them with your hatred, but you will not break her spirit.”
Adar stood slowly, leaning closer, his voice a dark whisper. “Spirit does not survive the darkness, Elf. It withers, like everything else.”
The weight of his words hung heavy in the air, but Elrond remained a pillar of strength. “Not her. You underestimate what endures in the light.”
Adar’s eyes narrowed, his smile fading as silence filled the space between them. “Give me the Ring and we can finish Sauron.”
“It would be a foolish act to bring it here,” Elrond replied, his voice serious.
“You are a couturier. More suited to wielding a scroll than a sword,” Adar mocked.
“You’ve never seen me wield either,” Elrond countered.
Your eyes watch both discuss and then Your eyes flicker to your dear friend Galadriel.
Your form is mostly hidden under the cloak.
When she spoke, Adar immediately ordered, “If she speaks again, cut her tongue.”
You and the guards stiffened, hands instinctively moving to your sword handles, a strand of your hair slips from the cloak.
He lets his eyes move back to Elrond.
Elrond watched you intently, silently communicating a warning to keep your composure. His gaze flitted back to Adar, his expression stern and tense, his hands clenching into fists.
Adar leaned on a pole, eyes flickering to you, an amused smirk playing on his lips. “She’s quiet,” he drawled. “A rare quality in these lands.”
Elrond tensed further, anger flickering across his face. “Leave her out of this, Adar.”
Adar's eyes flicker back to Galadriel.
Under the intense gaze of Adar, Galadriel's eyes met his, a storm of defiance and anger burning within them. Adar let out a small chuckle, seemingly satisfied with the reaction.
As Adar walks, a pendant slips out from beneath his clothes, catching your eye.
The pendant, an unusual piece of jewelry, had your curiosity piqued. Adar had turned his attention back to Elrond, seemingly unaware of the item that had slipped out.
“That pendant…. who gave it to you?” The question lands with a weight that leaves little room for an answer.
The Pendant displays a trio of purple, blue, and green stones, seamlessly arranged and etched with intricate elven runes, exuding an air of mystical elegance.
The moment your voice cut through the tense air, Adar's eyes flickered towards you, his face hardening as he became aware of your attention on the pendant. He quickly shoved it back into his clothes, but the damage was done.
"It is none of your concern," he responded gruffly, his fingers still lingering on his chest, where the pendant was hidden.
"It's a rare elven Pendant and clearly doesn't belong to an Orc. From whom did you took that." You snarl.
It looks like the one you have made centuries ago. Could it be your's?
A brief flash of surprise crossed Adar's face as your words hit their mark. He clenched his jaw, the muscles in his face tensing as he contemplated how to respond.
"It was a... gift," he finally replied, his voice low and guarded. "From an old friend.”
You scoff, about to step forward, but Elrond’s hand catches your arm, grounding you. “Remember, we’re here for Galadriel,” he murmurs, steadying your resolve. With a quiet sigh, you hold back, though the curiosity in your gaze remains sharp.
Adar watched the interplay between you and Elrond, his expression guarded.
"Enough," Elrond said, his voice firm. "We're here to discuss the terms of Galadriel's release. Nothing else.”
Adar's eyes flicked between you and Elrond, his gaze lingering on you both. He took a few steps closer, studying the two of you.
"And what makes you think I'd let my prisoner go so easily?" he said, a hint of challenge in his voice.
Adar continued "You don't have the ring I want. I see no reason to give Galadriel back to you.”
Elrond took a moment to process Adar’s words, his expression hardening with resolve.
"We cannot give you the Ring," he said firmly. "It is not an object to be used for trades and exchanges.”
Adar let out a bitter laugh at that comment.
"Ah, the honorable Elf. Always righteous, even in defeat," he taunted. "But you forget, this War isn't about honor. It's about survival.”
“If you have no intention of setting her free, then grant them a moment for a proper farewell,” you state.
Adar paused his gaze flickering between you and Elrond, weighing your words. After a long moment, he waved a hand dismissively.
"Very well," he said grudgingly. "Let them say their goodbyes.”
———————————————————
You and Elrond exited the shadowy tent, the cool night air a welcome relief from the suffocating atmosphere within.
His face was drawn with concern, eyes cast downward as you walked silently beside him.
With the guards, you made your way away from the Orc camp.
Soon after, you settled into a tent at the elven camp, where Elrond soon walked in.
You sat quietly in the simple elven tent, the silence broken only by the rustle of fabric and the quiet breathing of the guards stationed outside.
As Elrond entered the tent, his usually composed face now lined with tension and worry. He sat down across from you, his eyes meeting yours, a wealth of unspoken thoughts reflected in them.
Elrond glanced at you, a flicker of disappointment in his eyes as he realized you had momentarily lost sight of Galadriel’s plight, distracted by the pendant Adar wore.
His gaze searched yours, revealing his concern. He knew you well enough to notice how your attention had shifted, captivated by the pendant instead of focusing on Galadriel's fate.
"You focused more on the pendant than Galadriel," he said quietly, his voice betraying a hint of frustration.
“Galadriel is safe. You gave her the key along with your farewell kiss, so she’ll be here shortly.”
Elrond let out a surprised huff at your comment, his frustration replaced by a touch of amusement. "You're more confident in my tactics than I am," he replied, a slight smirk playing on his lips.
You slightly chuckle. "You are smart, Elrond. You should have more thrust in yourself.”
Elrond's smirk softened at your words, a hint of warmth in his eyes. "Coming from you, that's quite the compliment," he said, the teasing tone back in his voice. "You've always believed in my abilities more than I have myself.”
The atmosphere between you and Elrond shifted slightly, the tension from earlier melting away in the quiet tent. Elrond leaned back, his gaze softening further as he looked at you.
"Speaking of sharp minds," he said with a touch of wry humor. "You're awfully interested in that pendant.”
“I’m not sure what you’re talking about,” you reply.
Elrond raised an eyebrow at your denial, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Don't play coy," he replied, his tone a tad playful. "I saw the look on your face when you first saw that pendant.”
"It's like it held some secret, some hidden meaning," he continued, watching your expression closely. "Why were you so intrigued by an orcish pendant, anyway?”
"That’s an Elven Pendant," you nearly spat.
Elrond's eyes widened slightly at your sudden vehemence. He leaned forward, the previous lightheartedness gone from his expression.
"How can you tell?" he asked, an edge in his voice. "And why does it anger you so much?”
"You can't dismiss it as a filthy orc pendant when it's clearly elven," you retort.
Elrond's surprise at your reaction to the pendant slowly morphed into understanding.
"But why does it bother you so much?" he asked, more gently this time. "It's just a piece of metal and jewels. Why does it matter so much to you?”
“It’s more than just a chunk of metal or jewelry. I created it,” you say, a hint of pain in your voice at being reduced to something so simple.
Elrond's eyes went wide with shock, his composure slipping for a brief second, before it returned.
"You made it?" he echoed, disbelief and realization dawning on his face. "You made that pendant?”
"Tell me, are you slow on the uptake or what? I said I did make it, what's so difficult to understand about that?”
Elrond shot you a glare at the blunt jab to his intelligence, but he took a deep breath, collecting himself before replying.
"No, I'm not slow," he said, a hint of annoyance in his voice. "I just can't believe that you, of all people..." he trailed off, his mind still sorting through the implications of your revelation.
"What? Make jewelry. That was centuries ago.”
"I know it was centuries ago," Elrond said, his voice growing more heated. "But you never told me you made jewelry before, and now you're suddenly upset that someone is wearing something you made?"
He stood up, beginning to pace the small space of the tent, his frustration growing with every step.
“Because I gave it to my husband,” you say, frustration creeping into your voice, unaware that you've just revealed something you had intended to keep hidden. The weight of your words lingers in the air, shifting the atmosphere between you.
Elrond's pacing came to an abrupt halt, your words freezing him on the spot.
"Your husband?" he repeated, his voice a mixture of surprise and disbelief. "You were married?"
He turned to look at you, his gaze intense and searching.
“I... What?” you breathe out, struggling to process your own words. A mix of surprise and confusion washes over you, leaving you momentarily speechless.
Elrond stared at you, his mind swirling with questions and realizations.
"You were married," he repeated, a note of incredulity in his voice. "You, the fierce warrior who has been by my side through countless battles and dangers, you never thought to mention having a husband in all that time?”
Your stunned silence confirmed his suspicion. Elrond let out a long breath, his expression shifting from disbelief to something more resembling hurt.
"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked, his voice quiet but filled with a mix of disappointment and confusion.
Your mind is racing but you don't get a word out.
Elrond sees the turmoil in your eyes, the struggle to find an explanation written all over your face. His expression softens slightly, but there's still a hint of betrayal in his eyes.
"How many years have we known each other? Fought together, bled together, shared meals and tales and laughter?" he asks quietly, still waiting for an answer.
"Almost 1800 years." You answer with a sigh.
Elrond falls silent for a moment, processing the magnitude of that number. 1800 years. More than a millennium of friendship, trust, and adventures together.
"1800 years," he echoes quietly. "And you never thought to mention a husband. Why?”
You look over at the fire.
Elrond's gaze follows yours to the flickering fire in the center of the tent. For a moment, there's a tense silence, filled only by the crackle of the flames.
He takes a deep breath, trying to steady his emotions before inquiring further. “Who was he?”
You exhale softly, lost in thought.
“He was a strong elf, mischievous, but with a kind and gentle heart.”
“He had black hair that always caught the light, shimmering like polished obsidian in the sun.”
Elrond listens intently to your description, his face betraying a mixture of emotions as he pictured the mystery man.
"He sounds like an impressive individual," he says quietly, his eyes still fixed on the fire. "And yet I've never met him, nor have you ever mentioned him before.”
“I had a mission to complete, and before I left, I gave him the necklace as a parting gift. Then I set off from the village. When I returned after the mission, I found the village in ruins, completely destroyed.”
Elrond's expression darkened as you related the tragic tale of your return, destruction and loss where there should have been home and comfort.
"You came back to find everything gone?" he asked, his voice barely a whisper.
You nod. " I found my parents body, his parents but not him.”
Elrond's expression was grave as he listened to your words. The pain of losing your loved ones was clear in your voice, your eyes distant as you remembered that day.
"You never found him?" he asked softly.
"no, not a glimpse”
Elrond reaches out, a subtle gesture of comfort, his hand gently touching your arm. There's a look of understanding in his eyes, a painful empathy for the loss you've suffered.
"Do you..." he begins, his voice hesitant. "Do you think he survived?”
“That could be possible. He was always stubborn. I suppose it’s possible he simply has amnesia and forgot me or something along those lines. It’s hard to believe he wouldn’t remember.”
A small flicker of hope crossed Elrond's face at your words. The possibility of a loved one lost, but still alive, igniting a spark of optimism.
"It's possible," he said, his voice holding a note of comforting encouragement. "People have survived worse, with their memories intact. And if he's as stubborn as you say, then he may yet be out there, somewhere, waiting to be found."
“It unsettles me to see Adar wearing his pendant,” you say, a knot forming in your stomach. “Every glance at it reminds me of what I’ve lost and the memories I wish I could erase.”
Elrond nodded, his mind returning to the original topic of discussion. The fact that Adar wore the pendant you made was clearly weighing heavily on your mind.
"It must have been a shock to see someone else wearing something so personal," he said quietly, understanding the depth of your emotions.
“I didn’t forget Galadriel, but when it fell from Adar’s clothes, I thought I had lost it for good,” you say, your voice laced with sorrow.
Elrond listened intently, his expression a mixture of sympathy and understanding. He knew you well enough to know that your feelings were complicated and deeply personal.
"I understand," he said softly. "You didn't forget Galadriel, but seeing that pendant brought back memories, emotions long buried.”
"I think you both would have been good friends..”
Elrond gave a small, bittersweet smile at your heartfelt comment. There was a hint of sadness in his eyes as he responded.
"I agree," he said quietly. "If he were still here, I think we would have gotten along well. And Galadriel would have liked him too.”
For a few moments, Elrond and you sat in silence, both lost in your thoughts. The memory of your lost love hung in the air, a poignant reminder of what had been lost.
Finally, Elrond spoke up, his voice soft and gentle.
"Can I ask you something?” You nod.
Elrond looks at you intently, his gaze full of unspoken questions and emotions.
"Why haven't you ever spoken about him?" he asked, his voice gentle but firm. "All the time we've spent together, through battles, feasts, and quiet evenings, you've never once mentioned having a husband, a love who you lost.”
“First of all, you never asked, and second, I don’t want to dwell on it. I searched for centuries and still haven’t found him.”
Elrond listened to your reasons, his expression unreadable as he took in your words.
"I never asked because I never realized," he said quietly. "You're my closest friend, my sister in arms, and yet you've kept this part of your life hidden. I don't blame you for searching, but..." he trailed off, his eyes filled with a mix of understanding and melancholy.
"All those centuries of searching must have been so difficult," he continued. "Did you ever think about giving up? Moving on and finding someone else?”
“Moving on? No, that would feel like a betrayal to his memory and everything we shared.”
Elrond nodded silently, understanding the depth of your loyalty and devotion.
"It must have been lonely, though," he said quietly. "All those years, alone and searching…”
“He could be alive somewhere, still thinking of me, longing for me, and unable to find me. I can’t break the promise we made to each other without knowing for sure that he’s gone.”
Elrond's heart ached at the depth of your devotion to your lost love. The idea that he could still be out there, somewhere, remembering you, aching for you, touched a part of him that understood loss all too well.
"I admire your loyalty," he said softly, his voice filled with both respect and sadness. "But the odds of finding him, after all this time…”
“I don’t want to hear that,” you interrupted, frustration rising in your chest. “It feels like giving up on him, and I can’t do that.”
Elrond fell silent, realizing that his words, though driven by concern, were not what you wanted or needed to hear. He changed tact, his voice softer now.
"I'm sorry," he said. "I just don't want to see you hurt any further. But I can see that your spirit is strong, your hope unbroken. I will not question your path any further.”
A bit later Galadriel walks into the tent.
Galadriel's slender figure appeared in the opening of the tent, her gaze immediately falling on you and Elrond. She looked tired but unharmed, a hint of relief present in her eyes.
Elrond stood up, greeting her with a warm smile, his worry for her evident in his expression.
“So, Elrond’s little farewell kiss actually worked...” you chuckle softly, recalling the key he had given her. It had proven invaluable, enabling her escape when she needed it most.
Elrond shot you a look, his cheeks reddening slightly at your teasing comment. Galadriel chuckled softly, her eyes sparkling with mirth.
"Yes, his little trick came in quite useful," she said, a hint of amused gratitude in her voice.
Elrond rolled his eyes at your playful banter, his cheeks still slightly flushed.
"Well, I'm glad it helped," he said, trying to maintain a hint of dignity. "But let's not make a habit of using my romantic overtures as a tactical maneuver, shall we?”
"Why not?" You slightly giggle amused and make place for Galadriel by the fireplace.
Elrond shot you a mock glare, his lips twisted into a half-smile despite himself.
"Because it's humiliating," he replied, a hint of mock seriousness in his voice. "I have a reputation to maintain as a leader, not a pawn to be used in escape plans."
Galadriel joined you by the fire, a soft laugh escaping her lips.
“You can be both a leader and someone who knows how to share a kiss.”
Elrond stifled a laugh at your impudent remark, his cheeks reddening slightly.
"Is that so? I suppose I might have to start a new strategy, then: using kisses as persuasive tactics in war councils," he said, his tone joking but with a hint of challenge.
You laugh. "Would be a surprise for them.”
Elrond chuckled, his earlier embarrassment giving way to a light-hearted banter.
"Yes, it certainly would," he agreed, "imagine a council of hardened warriors being left with a bunch of blushing fools after a particularly effective...tactical kiss.”
The image of a bunch of flustered warriors stammering and blushing after witnessing a strategic kiss was too much. All three of you shared a hearty laugh, the tension of the day momentarily forgotten in the warmth of the fire and friendly banter.
————————————————————
A few days later, you slip away from the elven camp, moving quietly into the orc camp undetected. You make your way into Adar’s tent, finding it empty. As your eyes scan the space, they land on the pendant, and you reach for it, studying its details closely.
The familiar sight of the pendant lying innocently on a small table sent a wave of emotions through you. The delicate craftsmanship, the intricate patterns, all spoke of a past you longed for and a love that still echoed in your heart.
You picked up the pendant, cradling it carefully in your hands. The cool touch of the metal against your skin felt strangely familiar, as if it was your own heartbeat against your fingertips.
"the same metal and stones.”
You turn the pendant over, your eyes going over every detail. The metal, the setting, the stones - they were all so familiar, so deeply ingrained in your memory.
"The same," you murmur softly, your voice filled with a mixture of wonder and nostalgia. "As if not a day has passed since I made it.”
Before you can react, a hand seizes your hair, and a dagger presses against your throat. Adar's gaze roams over you, assessing your presence.
Your heart jumps into your throat as you feel Adar's hand grip your hair, pulling you back against his chest. The cold steel of the dagger against your skin sends a shiver down your spine. You had been so focused on the pendant that you didn't hear him enter.
"What are you doing in my tent?" Adar's voice is low and dangerous, his breath hot against your ear. He tightens his grip on your hair, the dagger's edge digging slightly into your skin.
"aren't you seeing what I'm doing?”
"Yes, I am seeing what you are doing," Adar replies, his voice cold and menacing. He gives your hair a sharp tug, forcing you to look up at him. "You're sneaking around in my tent without permission.”
Your eyes meet his. "That's true..”
Adar's gaze locks onto yours, his expression a mix of curiosity and malice. He leans in closer, his breath hot against your skin as he speaks.
"And why, pray tell, are you sneaking around in here, looking at my things?”
"The pendant is mine.”
Adar's eyes narrow at your assertion, his grip on you tightening. He gazes down at the pendant in your hand, then up at your face, suspicion in his gaze.
"You're claiming ownership of this pendant?" he asks, his voice low and dangerous.
“I am. I crafted it myself,” you reply, standing your ground despite the danger.
Adar's eyes widen slightly at your declaration, disbelief and intrigue flickering across his face. He gazes down at the pendant clutched in your fingers, the realization of your connection to it sinking in.
"You...made it?" he asks, his tone laced with a hint of surprise.
You draw your dagger, but Adar is quicker, forcing you to your knees and disarming you with ease. The sudden shift catches you off guard, and a startled gasp escapes your lips as your dagger clatters to the floor.
The pendant, once clutched tightly in your hand, tumbles onto the pillow, its fragile presence contrasting sharply with the tense power struggle unfolding between you.
Adar stands over you, his tall figure imposing in the dim light of the tent. He looks down at you, a mixture of anger and interest in his eyes.
"You have quite the nerve," he murmurs, his voice low and dangerous. "Sneaking into my tent, trying to claim a pendant as your own, and then pulling a blade on me?”
Adar watches you closely, his eyes taking in every detail of your expression. He can see the frustration in your eyes, the anger and defiance in your body language.
He crouches down next to you, his hand reaching out to grab your chin, forcing you to look at him.
"Look at me," Adar commands, his voice firm and authoritative. "You're in my tent, you tried to steal from me, and then you attempted to attack me. And all because of a pendant you say you made.”
“Hold it to the fire, and the inscription will become visible.”
Adar's eyes narrow as you mention the lettering, his interest piqued. He releases your chin, his gaze flickering to the pendant on the pillow.
"And what does this lettering say?" he asks, his voice suddenly intense.
“In the quiet whisper of the wind through the trees, you may find what my heart dares not speak aloud,” you reply, feeling Adar’s heart lift slightly as he recognizes the words he once heard centuries ago.
As your words float through the tent, Adar's eyes widen, a flicker of recognition passing over his face. The inscription, the words you uttered, hold a significance that can't be denied. It triggers something in him, a memory, a feeling he thought long buried.
Adar's gaze remains fixed on you, his expression cautious, as he holds the pendant over the fire. The metal warms against the flames, and slowly, the familiar lettering begins to become visible.
With each flicker of the fire, the words he once thought forgotten are slowly revealed.
Adar's breath hitches in his throat as he stares at the now-visible lettering, his hand beginning to shake slightly. The sight of the words, written by your own hand, stirs something deep within him, memories and emotions long suppressed bubbling to the surface.
“The pendant isn’t yours,” you declare.
Adar's gaze snaps from the pendant, back to you. There's a flicker of anger in his eyes, as if your words have somehow insulted him.
"And it doesn't belong to you either," he says, his voice quiet but tinged with irritation.
He holds the pendant up in front of your face, the letters now fully visible against the metal's surface.
"This pendant was made centuries ago, yet you claim to be its creator," he says, his voice laced with a strange mixture of curiosity and doubt. "How can I be sure you're telling the truth?”
Adar's gaze roams over your form, taking in every feature, every detail. There's a hint of recognition in his eyes, as if something about you seems both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time.
His eyes linger on your features - your hair, your beautiful eyes, your elvish ears, your pale skin, your cherry-red lips. Something about your look triggers a memory, a feeling he can't quite place.
He reaches out, his fingertips lightly tracing the edge of your ear. The touch is almost tender, his fingers exploring the shape, the texture, as if trying to confirm his own suspicions.
Adar's touch causes your ear to twitch slightly, a small reaction that doesn't escape his notice. A hint of a smile touches his lips, as if he finds this small detail somehow endearing.
He continues to explore, his fingers tracing over your cheek, your jaw, as if committing every feature to memory.
"You look so familiar.." he murmurs, his voice betraying curiosity and a hint of wonder.
As he studies your face, his gaze intent, he slowly circles around you.
"Very familiar.." he repeats, his voice quieter now, as if he's speaking more to himself than to you.
His eyes roam over your hair, your ears, your slender neck, and a frown of concentration forms on his face. Something about you is stirring memories, awakening something in his heart he thought long dead.
He stops in front of you once again, his eyes boring into yours. The expression on his face is a mix of confusion and realization, as if the pieces of a puzzle are slowly falling into place.
"Who.. Who are you?" he asks softly, his voice holding a tremble of uncertainty.
“Y/n”
Adar's eyes widen ever so slightly as you give your name, your simple answer triggering something within him.
"Y/n.." he repeats, your name rolling off his tongue like a long-forgotten melody. The sound of it seems to ignite something deep within him, stirring memories and feelings he'd thought lost to time.
"the pendant, how did it get into your hands?”
Adar's expression hardens at your question, his jaw clenching as if you've hit a nerve.
"That's none of your business," he snaps, his voice sharp. "It belongs to me, and I don't have to explain its origins to you.”
“It belonged to my husband,” you snap.
Adar's eyes narrow, his anger tinged with a hint of curiosity.
“Your husband?” he echoes, disbelief evident in his voice. “You’re claiming this pendant was his?”
“Yes, I gave it to him before I set out on a mission,” you assert firmly.
What neither of you realize is that this moment resonates with a deeper connection, Adar had received a pendant from his own beloved before she embarked on her journey, but neither of you recognizes the shared history that binds you.
As your words sink in, the realization of their significance hits Adar like a ton of bricks. The way you describe giving the pendant to your husband, just as he had received a similar piece from his own loved one, sets something off in his mind.
His eyes widen as the pieces of the puzzle start falling into place.
"Who.. What was your husband's name?" he asks, his voice suddenly shaky.
“Sytal”
Adar's heart seems to skip a beat as you say your husband's name.
"Sytal..." he repeats, the name rolling off his tongue like a long-lost song. Memories, feelings, and realization swirl in his eyes, the connection becoming more apparent with each word you utter.
He takes a step closer to you, his gaze intense, studying your face with an almost desperate look.
"Describe him, your husband," he demands, his voice taut with emotion.
You frown slightly.
“He had black hair that shimmered in the sunlight, and a scar on his right ear from when my arrow grazed him. His mind was sharp, a true warrior like me... Mischievous, gentle, and kind.”
A wave of nostalgia washes over you as you remember the moments you shared, each memory a bittersweet reminder of what you’ve lost.
As you describe your husband, Adar listens intently, his expression becoming more and more captivated.
Each trait you mention ignites a memory within him, each word drawing pictures in his mind's eye. The description of the scar on your husband's ear, the one caused by your own arrow, hits him hard, awakening an ache in his heart.
"I have been searching for him, since centuries and now you have his pendant.."
Adar's eyes flicker with a mixture of guilt, anger, and confusion. The realization that the pendant he has cherished for centuries belonged to your husband - the same man you have been searching for - creates a maelstrom of emotions in his chest.
His grip on the pendant tightens, his knuckles turning white as his own memories of his loved one flood his mind.
"Who gave it to you?" You ask again.
Adar hesitates for a moment, his mind a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. Reluctantly, he speaks again, his voice low and heavy.
"A female. A Warrior," he begins, his words slow and measured as if the memory is painful to recall. "She gave it to me before she left on a dangerous mission. She said she would return.”
You slowly stand up from your kneeling position.
"Do you have her name or a nickname?”
As you rise to your feet, Adar tracks your movements closely, his eyes wary and conflicted. At your question, he falters for a moment, as if the memory stings.
“Her nickname...” he begins, his voice rough with emotion. “I called her... moonshine... She adored it.”
“Because she lit up like the moon whenever she saw you, right?” you add, a knowing smile tugging at your lips.
Adar's eyes widen slightly, your words hitting him with an unexpected force. It's like you had read his mind, like you know the very thoughts he had harbored in his heart.
"Yes.. that's exactly why.." he responds, his voice barely louder than a whisper.
You look at him and move closer. You know it's a bold move but you cub his face and look at his right pointed ear, having a hunch.
As you approach him, Adar tenses slightly, unsure of your intentions. But your touch is surprisingly gentle, your gaze focused on his ear.
He doesn't pull away, instead he allows you to inspect his ear, his heart hammering against his chest.
The sight of the healed but unmistakable scar on Adar's ear makes your blood run cold. It's the same scar you had inflicted on your husband, a mark as unique as a fingerprint.
"The scar.." you murmur, your voice tight with emotion. "It's the same..”
You meet Adar's eyes. "Who destroyed our village, my love. Who killed our parents? Who was the one that took you away from me?”
Your words strike Adar like a dagger to his heart. They're filled with a mix of anger, accusation, but also love and sorrow.
His eyes widen as he realizes the truth you're hinting at, the words catching in his throat.
"How... How do you know-”
"You are my Sytal.."
Adar's eyes are wide and disbelieving, his mind struggling to process the truth that's crashing down around him. He looks at you, really looks at you, truly seeing you for the first time.
Your eyes, the color of which he could never forget. The way you hold yourself, the familiar curve of your lips... it all resonates with him so deeply, it's like a part of his soul that's been lost is finally being returned.
But alongside the realization, there's a deep well of guilt and self-loathing.
"You were once an elf, right? Centuries ago?"
Adar nods slowly, his expression still one of shock and disbelief.
"Yes... I was once an elf. Before..." he hesitates, swallowing the lump in his throat. "Before I was made like I am now.”
"and your elven name, do you remember it..”
Adar's eyes flicker as he calls upon the distant memories of his past life. It's been centuries since he's dwelt on them, and it takes him a moment to retrieve the name he once held before he was... changed.
"My elven name..." he murmurs, the syllables of his long-forgotten name coming to his lips. "It was Sytal.”
"You are him.. you're really him..”
Adar nods slowly, a mix of guilt and heartbreak etched on his face.
"Yes..." he whispers, his voice heavy with sorrow. "I am... I am him."
The weight of realization settles between you, the truth of your identities and shared past crashing over you both. Emotions churn through you, too overwhelming to bear. Your vision blurs, and before you can steady yourself, everything fades to black.
Adar’s eyes widen as you sway unsteadily, then collapse. Reacting instantly, he lunges forward, catching you before you hit the ground. His arms wrap protectively around you, and he gently lowers you, his hands cradling your head in his lap.
“No... no, no...” he murmurs, his voice filled with panic and regret. He strokes your hair, his heart racing as he gazes down at your unconscious face. Emotions he had buried for decades now break free, shock, guilt, worry, and an ache he can barely contain. The memory of who you were to him, who you still are, pierces through him, raw and real.
“I’m sorry… I’m so, so sorry,” he whispers, his voice cracking as he studies your face, taking in every familiar line and feature. Trembling, he lifts a hand to your cheek, his fingers brushing tenderly over your skin, as if hoping this touch could somehow bridge the years of separation, the pain he’s caused.
As he holds you, you stir slightly, a faint movement that sends a flicker of hope into his eyes. He cradles you closer, his hand cupping your face with a gentleness that belies his strength.
“Y/n...” he whispers, his voice soft and aching. “Can you hear me?”
As your eyes flutter open, Adar’s face comes into focus above you, his features softened by worry and a tenderness you recognize but thought you’d never see again. His hand rests against your cheek, as if assuring himself that you’re real, here, beside him.
“Y/n,” he breathes, barely above a whisper. You smile faintly, grounding yourself in his presence, and your gaze drifts down to something glinting at his chest, the pendant.
“You kept it?” you murmur, surprise and warmth mingling in your voice.
Adar’s expression falters, and he glances away, shame flickering across his face. “It was all I had left of you,” he admits, voice thick with regret. “But you… you’re unchanged, as beautiful as the day I last saw you. And I.." He hesitates, looking down at himself, the scars and hardened edges from years in darkness weighing heavily on him. “I don’t know if I’m the man you gave it to anymore.”
You tighten your hold on his hand, your voice gentle yet resolute. “Adar, you kept that pendant because you never let go of who you were. And I haven’t, either. You’re still the man I loved, no matter what time and the world tried to do to us.”
A tear slips down his cheek as he looks at you, both surprised and touched by your words. “But… you deserve more than this broken shell,” he whispers, the insecurity in his voice breaking your heart.
“Then let’s be whole together,” you say, reaching up to stroke his face, your thumb tracing a gentle line over the scarred skin. “I spent lifetimes longing to find you again. Nothing else matters to me now. Nothing.”
At this, his composure finally crumbles. With a soft, trembling breath, he pulls you into his arms, holding you as if anchoring himself in the storm of emotions. “I never stopped loving you,” he murmurs, his voice a mixture of awe and relief. “I never will.”
He leans in, his lips brushing yours in a kiss that feels like a promise, a reconciliation, a homecoming. The weight of all those years, all the missed moments, falls away.
When you pull back, you’re both smiling, a shared, quiet joy that speaks of acceptance, of strength, and of an unbreakable bond. You rise together, hand in hand, stepping out of the tent into the fresh light of dawn. The path ahead may still be unknown, but it’s one you’ll walk side by side, as elf and orc, bound by a love that time and trials could never sever.

Saw this template and had to do this
Original Template can be found here. Also, I'm not an artist, so please forgive a few blunders.
P.S. I was gonna have Starlo be Gold and make Clover Yellow, but I didn't like the yellow that the program uses, so I made Starlo orange.
P.P.S. I only marked Dalv in "gets them out" since I didn't want him to be stuck with only three squares.

He's up early to help Wrecker with some stuff around the island, starts a pot of caffe, pours himself a cup and sets out mugs for Mayday and Howzer. It's a quiet sunrise, and Crosshair enjoys the soft pinks and oranges peeking up from the water.
He relaxes even further into a hard, warm, naked chest that presses into his back, and smiles when he smells the distinct scent of spicy cologne remnants and last night's sex wafting from them. Lips kiss down his neck and Crosshair purrs.
"Howzer..."
"Mornin', babe."
Crosshair hums and fits himself to Howzer's chest. "Mayday?"
"Still asleep, but I missed you."
It's so silly. Howzer has no reason to miss him, but he drinks in the affection, and he might not be opposed to the butterflies in his stomach.

Another long one for the vaxleth childhood friend au.
Edit the stuff animals that were made. Keyleth was given a horse, Honey has to make an appearance and we can't trust Vox Machina with horses.
Vax learned to sow and cross stitch from his mom. Vex never was as good. He learned wood work with the Ashari. He made toys for their children when they started trying.
Vax's kids were born early, beating Vesper.
The Taven Queen is very fond of the twins. None of her champions had kids before.
Both twins can seem to understand the ravens.
Vax's daughter became a follower of the Raven Queen, so she could try to be closer to her dad.
Vax sends gifts with his raven. His 2 favorite are Knick and Knack.
Their daughter acts the most like Vax.
Their daughter spoke 1st, it was papa and she was look at the large raven that visits everyday. ( I heard splitopinions on if this is Vax, I think it is or at least a form of him)
Orym adores the twins. Will and him allow them to follow them around. He considers them his siblings.
Gilmore visits Keyleth at least once a month for tea. The twins call him uncle and he gives them magic items for their birthday. Keyleth got upset when he gave her daughter a necklace that allowed her to become invisible for her 9th birthday.
Simon was given to the twins when they turned 10.
Keyleth has had hyper fixations on animals and plants. Common in girls with autism.
These hcs could honestly work in so many of my aus!

Litte Recruit
Summary: Sergeant Bucky Barnes teaches recruits and maybe he has a favorite one.
Word count: 4438
Warnings: mention of gun’s
Sergeant Bucky x Recruit Reader
Tonight, you and other recruits gathered around Sergeant Bucky Barnes in the armory as he demonstrated how to properly inspect a firearm. “You must always ensure that your gun is in functioning order.” Bucky said as he pushed two fingers in and out of the empty mag of the marksman rifle, his fingertips making a languid rolling motion within the aperture to check for any defects. “Rack the bolt several times.” As Bucky’s large and manly hands expertly handled the weapon, your thoughts were in the gutter.
You shake your head to organize your thoughts but it's almost impossible.
Bucky's deep, baritone voice interrupted your daydreaming when he said, "You never know when you'll be caught with your pants down in the field," as he turned away and started moving down the line towards you. You gulped as Bucky's hands rested on your shoulder, a faint blush dusting your face as you tried to maintain composure and focus on the firearm demonstration.
Your focus is abruptly torn away when Bucky moves his hand to the hammer. As his fingertips gripped the hammer, you had to fight the instinct to squirm with how Bucky's touch made your body tingle. Bucky noticed this and decided it necessary to make a remark as he pushed down the hammer to demonstrate. "The hammer, when properly cocked, should not shake or jiggle,"
"Not shake or jiggle" you whisper and nod.
"Indeed," Bucky continued, pointing at the trigger, "Your trigger pull should be slow, consistent, and smooth." As he lifted his hand away, Bucky took note of the way your gaze followed each movement of his strong, masculine hands.
You try to focus on Bucky's speech.
Bucky's hands moved towards the top handguard, turning the rifle sideways to allow inspection from the muzzle end. "Your weapon must also be clean." Bucky pulled a cleaning rod from his drop-leg holster and poked it down the barrel to inspect the bore.
Bucky's hands ran through his hair as he continued to lecture, his fingers playing with his locks. Your gaze is drawn away from the lecture when Bucky's hands start to fiddle with the straps of your vest, his thumb pushing into the Velcro, "And always keep your gear in good working order." Bucky looked at you pointedly as he adjusted the strap over your left shoulder.
You nod a little bit embarrassed that you didn't put it properly on.
Though you tried to remain focused, every movement of the big Shield Soldier was simply mesmerizing to you. You felt your cheeks heat up again when Bucky put a firm hand on your shoulder. "Are you still with me, recruit?" He asked, his voice full of authoritative confidence and power.
“Yes, sir.” Your voice firm.
Bucky nodded, his hand sliding down your arm. Your body tensed, your pulse racing as Bucky's hand gilded downwards. The Soldier didn't seem to notice as he leaned in to look at your ear piece. "And finally, you must always maintain situational awareness." Bucky adjusted your earpiece and whispered something in your ear.
"You've been listening well tonight." Bucky's warm, raspy voice sent a shiver down your spine when he said this directly into your ear. He pulled away quickly and put his hands in his pockets, a faint smirk forming on his lips as he looked down the line to the next recruit.
As you look around. You can see that no one has seen the little interactions between you and the Bucky.
No one seemed to have noticed, and the Sergeant looked unphased by the intimate moment. The recruits were still entranced by his demonstrations, their attention fixed on his skillful handling of the firearm. After a moment of silence, Bucky barked, "Alright, that's all for tonight! Dismissed!"
You quickly pack up your items in preparation to be dismissed. As you were about to leave, Bucky called out for you to stay behind.
On his call. You stand still and wait for the others recruits to leave the room.
The other recruits leave the room after being dismissed by the Sergeant, leaving you alone with the big Shield soldier in the empty armory. "Come here," Bucky said, calling over to you.
You walk up to Bucky, feeling a little nervous at the way he was looking at you. The Shield Soldier leaned on the work table, his broad, muscular body nearly filling the narrow space. Bucky's gaze remained fixated on you, his blue eyes burning into yours.
You stare back at Bucky, the close proximity between you and the big Soldier making your heart pound in your chest. The faint scent of gun oil and cigarette smoke filled your senses as Bucky's blue eyes looked through you.
"Is something wrong? " you ask hesitant.
"I have something to tell you", Bucky said in a low, sensual voice, "And it's important that no one else hears." As Bucky looked down at you expectantly, your breath hitched in your throat.
"Okay" you nod.
Bucky leaned in closer, a faint blush spreading across his weathered face as his lips brushed your ear, "I want you." He whispered, "All of you." Though his words were direct, the tone of his voice made your heart skip a beat.
"uhh…." You say speechless.
Bucky continued to look down at you as he waited for a response, his intense blue eyes taking in every detail of your face. The big soldier's gaze was unrelenting as he continued to study you.
"Why?"
Bucky's eyebrows lifted slightly at your question. The big soldier remained quiet for a moment before he answered, "Because you're mine." Bucky's words landed with a heavy weight in your stomach as he took a step towards you. His imposing presence made you shiver slightly.
You take a step back and your eyes lock with him.
Bucky's piercing gaze followed you as you took a step back. The big soldier took a step forward, pinning you between him and the table. Bucky brought his hands to your arms and held you close, his hot breath caressing your neck. All you could do was swallow and nod.
"Maybe..... " You swallow and try to sort your thoughts " what about the other recruits?"
"I like you best," Bucky said, his hoarse voice filling your ears, "You're special to me." His hands shifted downwards towards your hips and his fingertips grazed your waist, "I want you to be mine." Bucky pressed his lips to your neck as he said this, his big hands caressing your hips possessively.
"what when i don't want that?" you question confused.
"Don't think for a second that you don't love it." Bucky pushed you against the worktable, your back pressed against its metallic surface as he leaned in. His lips kissed your ear and he whispered, "You want me. You need me." The big soldier's lips caressed your earlobe, his breath making your body tingle.
You breath quicken and your eyes flatter close.
The big Shield Soldier stood back and looked into your eyes, his blue eyes smoldering with desire as he took in your flushed expressions. With a firm grip, Bucky lifted you onto the worktable, his face move closer to yours.
"Sergeant " you whisper.
"Bucky," the soldier corrected, his lips never leaving yours, "Call me Bucky." As he brought his strong arms around your waist, "Only I get this from you." Bucky brought you closer, his masculine body pushing you down on the worktable as his hands ran up and down your thighs.
Bucky used your vulnerable position on the worktable to keep you as close as possible as he brought his hands higher up your thighs. He squeezed and rubbed your soft skin, his raspy voice a mere whisper as he said, "You're so soft."
"You... You are so big " you stutter and nervously lick your lips.
Bucky chuckled as his lips left your ear and kissed your neck briefly. "That's why you love me," the big Shield soldier murmured, his grip tightening on your thighs.
Then you heard footsteps and you froze
Bucky stopped what he is doing and looked down at you. When he heard the sound of footsteps, Bucky's body tensed and he moved quickly to cover you. "Shhh," he whispered, his eyes darting around the room as he tried to locate the source of the footsteps. As he tried to figure out who was approaching, his hands remained around your waist as he leaned down to whisper in your ear, "You're mine, remember that."
You nod slowly.
Bucky kept you close as he tried to listen past the heavy pounding of the blood inside his ears. His raspy breath was warm against your neck, as he kept his body flush against yours. Though your mind was running wild with possible scenarios, Bucky was hyper-focused on the approaching footsteps, his blue eyes shifting between the various doorways entering the armory.
As he continued to listen to the approaching footsteps, Bucky looked back down at you and whispered, "Stay calm." Bucky kept his body over yours and his hand over your mouth. He remained tense as he listened intently to the footsteps, his mind racing with thoughts of who may be approaching. His head was slightly tilted, his neck muscles tightening as he waited to see who might walk through the doors.
Your instincts took over and you quickly pushed Bucky away. As Bucky stumbled back, your eyes went wide when a pair of footsteps entered the room. "Hello, Sergeant," the woman spoke softly as her eyes swept the room, "What are you doing in here so late?" As the woman looked around the room, she did not notice you hiding under the worktable.
You close your eyes for a moment and relax. Then you follow the action again.
You opened your eyes shortly after the woman entered, your eyes darting between the two as the woman's voice tried to allure the big Shield soldier.
"Hello, Bucky," the woman said in a sultry voice as she moved closer to him, "I couldn't help but wonder what you were doing in here all by yourself? You were so busy with the recent recruit training, I didn't want to interrupt you." The woman moved closer to Bucky, her hand touching his broad shoulder and her lips moving ever closer to his ear.
Your eyes widen slightly.
Bucky's eyes fluttered with surprise as he stepped back from the woman's touch. As his mind tried to process what was happening, the woman pressed her body against his and whispered into his ear, "Let's go somewhere more... private." She pulled him close and nuzzled his neck, her voice a lustful purr as she said, "Do you like what you see?" Bucky was unable to respond, his voice catching in his throat as the woman continued to seduce him.
Your heart becomes heavy. You try to look away and hope that Bucky meant it seriously with you and does not respond to the woman.
Bucky took a step back and cleared his throat but the woman followed him, her voice becoming more desperate as she spoke, "You've caught me looking at you, Bucky. You must have known I'd be attracted to a man like you?" Bucky could feel the woman's warm breath on his neck as she looked up into his eyes and tried to kiss him. "Do you find me appealing?" She asked.
In Bucky's mind, you appear a scenario is playing out. How hurt you are by what he did. In his mind he sees you ignoring him not looking at him anymore. When he lets other people touch him.
The thought that you don't want him anymore, if he cheats on you now, hurts him.
Bucky looked at the woman with a mixture of confusion and annoyance. As the woman continued to try and seduce him, Bucky closed his eyes and pictured you ignoring him. The image hurt him as it drove home the reality of what was happening. Bucky's brain was filled with scenarios of you ignoring, avoiding, and moving on from him. The thought of him cheating on you hurt him deeply and made him realize the gravity of what he was doing.
In his mind, Bucky began to see you more clearly as he pictured what you looked like when you were upset and distraught.
The thought of hurting you was not something Bucky could bear again, and his eyes widened with panic in his mind. He imagined seeing you sad, cold, and distant, and the image made him feel physically ill. Bucky looked at the woman in front of him, his brain filled with thoughts of you as she slowly traced a line down his jaw, "Do I appeal to you? Do I make you feel good, Bucky?" The woman's voice was soft and soothing as she tried to seduce Bucky, her warm touch on his skin making him shudder involuntarily.
The woman's touch feel disgusting for Bucky.
"Please stop," Bucky whispered, his eyes filled with discomfort, as he tried to move away from the woman. The big Shield soldier tried to push her away but she persisted, her grip on him tight as she leaned in closer, "I want more." Bucky tried to get away from the woman but she held on even tighter, her hands running up and down his body as she spoke, "Don't you want this? Is my body not attractive enough for you?" Her words were a stark contrast to the feelings Bucky was experiencing in his mind.
You can see the panic and discomfort in Bucky's eyes. So you decide to help him. Unnoticed by the woman, you go to the door and then open it, pretending to enter the room.
The relief was palpable in Bucky's expression as his eyes locked with you when you opened the door. His face turned to annoyance and disgust as the woman continued to try and seduce him. He tried to push her away once more but the woman held onto him, running her hands down his broad physique and leaning in closer to speak in his ear. Bucky was clearly uncomfortable and not comfortable with what the woman was doing.
"Sergeant, that's a training room. Such a thing should not be done here " you question as a recruit.
The woman turned to look at you with surprise, her lustful expression transforming into one of shock and horror. "But, Sergeant," the woman said, "Surely you're a man of action. Why not enjoy yourself? Why not take a pretty woman to your bed and enjoy something new?" As the woman's voice became more demanding, and her grip on Bucky became tighter, Bucky gave you a pleading look from the corner of his eye. "For God's sake," Bucky whispered, his tone quiet and tense, "help me."
"Even though I'm just a recruit, I see that, you, Miss. Cross the border of the Sergeant. Or should I get help. I'm sure you won't like it" you say firmly.
The woman's expression went from shocked to angry, "Help from who? What is a little recruit going to do about anything??" Her voice was stern as she looked down at you and moved closer to Bucky. "I have everything under control," the woman hissed, her tone a stark contrast to your calm, polite demeanor. Bucky looked over at you with a desperate look in his eyes and gave a slight nod.
"I can go to the general, I'm sure he will help with this." You prompt.
"And what will you tell him, little recruit? That Sergeant Bucky was trying to enjoy the company of a beautiful, younger woman?" The woman leaned in closer and tried to whisper in Bucky's ear, as her tone became more seductive and inviting, "Or will you keep your mouth shut and let us have our fun?" The woman began to inch towards Bucky's lips, her breath warm on his skin.
"I won't go. He is uncomfortable with you."
"Oh he does enjoy me," the woman purred seductively, as her hands began to wander and explore Bucky's body. Her expression turned to amusement as she continued to try and seduce the uncomfortable big Shield soldier. "He's just playing hard to get," she whispered, her voice an inviting purr as she leaned in closer to Bucky's ear. "Don't you enjoy this?" The woman's warm breath was on his neck and her hand began to caress the bulge of Bucky's muscular biceps. Annoyed you stand between the two. "Woman, you're breaking the rules."
The woman looked confused as you stood between the two but her seductive expression changed to a cruel frown as she responded, "Who are you to question me? A lowly recruit?" The woman looked back at Bucky and continued to try and seduce him, her voice becoming more demanding and aggressive, "I thought soldiers enjoyed a good time with a woman. I'm trying to provide Sergeant Bucky with some stress relief."
"He don't need a whore like you that don't know when's enough "
The woman's expression turned dark as she looked back at you, her face filled with a mixture of hurt and annoyance. "Excuse me?" She spoke sharply as she looked back at Bucky, "Are you implying that I'm a whore?" The big Shield soldier looked back and forth between the two of you as the woman continued to attack you with her words, her expression full of anger. "A recruit... calling a woman a whore... do you know your place?" The woman took a step towards you and spoke sternly as she looked down at you.
"I know my place but clearly you don't " you say calmly.
"Well then, since you know so much," the woman said with a snide grin, "how about you tell me, little recruit, where is my place?" The woman looked at you as if she was daring you to respond, her tone sarcastic and mocking. Your calm manner, however, seemed to only exacerbate her annoyance as she waited for you to respond.
"Your place is outside this room" gently and reassuringly your hand points to the door.
The woman looked at you in shock as she processed what you said and took a step back, clearly offended. She looked back at Bucky, her face filled with anger as she saw him looking at her with a stern expression. Her eyes suddenly widened as she looked back at you, her voice taking on a threatening tone, "And who is going to make me leave? You, little recruit?"
"When the Sergeant wants that, yes." your eyes stay firmly on her's.
Bucky's face remained stern as he looked at the woman. The big Shield soldier seemed to be contemplating your words a moment before he spoke up and said, "The recruit's right, I would like you to leave." The woman looked surprised as Bucky spoke up, her expression turning into one of anger and annoyance. "And if I refuse to do so?" The woman's words were a stark contrast to Bucky's, as she stood defiant in front of the big soldier.
"I'll help you out then" you say strongly.
Bucky looked surprised when you stepped up for him, as the big Shield soldier was not expecting support from a recruit. Bucky looked at you with a grateful smile, as he didn't want to have to cause a scene with the woman. As Bucky's expression turned to a smile, the woman's expression transformed into one of anger and disbelief. The woman looked at you angrily and spoke sharply to you, "Little recruit, who do you think you are?"
"I'm a recruit, nothing else" you say calmly, " you should go now."
Bucky looked at you with gratitude and respect as he saw how you remained calm in front of the woman. Bucky's eyes darted between you and the woman as he remained alert in case the situation escalated. The woman looked at you in annoyance and frustration, "A recruit is telling me to leave? Do you know who I am?" The woman shook her head and continued to look at you with anger as she spoke, "I'm not going anywhere."
" I don't know who you are, but I have treated you with respect. And I think it's time for you to go" you say strict but calm
The woman looked surprised at your tone but remained defiant, "I don't think it's time for me to leave. I believe I'm making Sergeant Bucky very happy, and if he wants me to stay for the evening, then I will stay." The woman looked at Bucky and spoke seductively to him, "Don't you want me to stay, sweetheart? Don't you find me desirable?" As the woman continued to try and seduce Bucky, Bucky looked over at you with a pleading look in his eyes.
You nod and gently grab the woman's arm and lead her out. The woman looked down at your hand on her arm with surprise, as she had not seen you move towards her. As she turned to look at you, she spoke sharply, "Don't touch me, little recruit." But your grip remained firm as you pulled her out of the training room and into the hall. Despite her protests, the woman couldn't stop you and had no choice but to follow your lead.
The woman looked frustrated as she was pulled out of the room but Bucky's eyes lit up with relief when he saw the door closed. Bucky looked at you with appreciation as he spoke, "Thank you, little recruit." Bucky's face was serious as he looked at you and spoke, "You did not have to step up for me." Bucky's tone was firm when he continued, "I am a big boy, I could've handled her myself."
"I'm sorry if I've crossed a line"
Bucky's eyes softened when he looked at you and he shook his head, "It's alright, little recruit. I appreciate your help." Bucky's voice was calm as he spoke, the big soldier seeming like a different man entirely after the event with the woman. Bucky looked at you with a grateful smile and continued speaking calmly, "You handled the situation well, I could tell she was trying to goad you into conflict."
"thank you, then i go now, good night Sergeant"
Bucky's face suddenly brightened when you spoke, "Good night, little recruit." Bucky gave you a warm smile, his voice soft and gentle, as if the previous events did not even happen. As you turned to leave, Bucky spoke up to you, his voice slightly firmer with a hint of irritation, "And do not tell anyone about this." Bucky's tone was still soft but there was a warning in his voice, his voice becoming more serious as he spoke, "Do you understand?"
"I understand, nothing has happened here," you nod.
Bucky looked relieved when you responded to his order, his expression becoming more relaxed and calm. His voice returned to the soft tone he was speaking in before, "Good, thank you. Now go on, I should go back to my room before I run into more trouble." Bucky spoke with a smile, seeming to have completely forgotten about the woman who had just tried to seduce him. But before he turned away, Bucky spoke once more, "Thank you, little recruit."
As you walked away, Bucky watched you go, feeling a rush of emotions he wasn’t used to.. relief, gratitude and a strange warmth in his chest that he hadn’t felt in a long time. He knew he should just let you go and call it a night, but something about the way you had stood up for him lingered in his mind.
Sighing, Bucky found himself wandering the halls until he eventually stumbled upon you again, sitting alone on a bench outside, gazing up at the stars. You looked peaceful, your face relaxed as the cool night air played with your hair. You didn’t notice him at first, lost in your own thoughts, but when he approached, you glanced up, startled but quickly relaxed when you saw who it was.
“Sergeant,” you greeted softly, a gentle smile on your lips. “Couldn’t sleep?”
Bucky shook his head, stuffing his hands in his pockets. “Not really. Just... thinking.” He paused, then added “About tonight.”
You nodded, understanding immediately. “It’s okay, Sergeant. You don’t have to explain. I’m glad I could help.”
Bucky smiled, a rare and genuine smile that reached his eyes. “You’re a tough one, little recruit” he said, his voice soft with a hint of admiration. “Not many would’ve stepped in like that. You didn’t even hesitate.”
You shrugged lightly, feeling a bit bashful under his gaze. “You looked like you needed help. Sometimes, a little push from someone is all it takes.”
Bucky chuckled at your words, finding comfort in them. “You’re right. I guess I’m not used to people looking out for me.” He looked at you with an appreciative smile. “But you… you’re something else.”
He sat down beside you, the bench creaking slightly under his weight. You both stared up at the stars, the silence between you feeling natural, not awkward. It was quiet, but it wasn’t empty.. there was an unspoken understanding that made the moment feel right.
“Y’know, little recruit,” Bucky started, his voice low and thoughtful, “I’ve seen a lot of things in my time. Been through a lot. But someone standing up for me, like you did? That’s... rare.”
You glanced at him, noticing the sincerity in his eyes. “You deserve it, Sergeant. Even soldiers need someone in their corner.”
Bucky nodded slowly, mulling over your words. He reached over, almost instinctively, and ruffled your hair lightly, a playful gesture, one that spoke of a newfound fondness. “You’re alright, little recruit,” he said, the warmth in his voice unmistakable. “I think I’m gonna have to keep an eye on you.”
You laughed softly, feeling a flutter of pride. “Guess that makes two of us, then.”
For a moment, neither of you said anything, just enjoying the quiet night and each other’s company. Bucky’s hand brushed against yours on the bench, and instead of pulling away, he let it rest there, finding comfort in the small but significant touch.
“Thanks again,” he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper. “For everything.”
“Anytime, Sergeant,” you replied, smiling at him. “I’ve got your back.”
And with that simple promise, Bucky knew that this wouldn’t be the last time he’d seek out the “little recruit” who had unexpectedly become his quiet source of strength. Tonight, sitting under the stars with you by his side, everything felt a little bit lighter, a little bit more hopeful.
