calpernia said, " you're no match for me. "
she looked pretty like that — swathed in confidence. in the cleft shadow of a flickering candle, urged on by the wind. their company for this evening. sat at either side of a board that’d seen better days, perhaps, but served its purpose with as much clarity as his next move. knight to g5 and @feybled’s queen was conquered. swallowed up in his chuckles and the clasp of armored fingers. “ that so ? ”
she’d hardly known the rules when they’d met. had flustered while he mocked her and took pleasure in each tally for his side. samson’s way of getting leverage for the day to come. a wager. as innocent as the snaggle of his teeth and the crooked way his smile spread. war would wait. kirkwall had taught him the patience of that. with the night heavy and their troops spent, they’d earned the reprieve. had been so bold as to wave to corypheus when he’d departed, as well. “ then prove it. ”

❰❰ FREE ❱❱ sender frees the receiver from restraints #herfuture & #redrghthand
it’s the cold, he thinks, that’s done the most damage. hunger cannot find his bones beneath the scarlet that surrounds them.. and sanity ? samson’s smile at the thought is admission enough. his endeared submission while head slumped back and the bite of frigid stone stung once more. what a subtle departure. how the inquisition picks him apart. how they call this merciful, the scuttle of rats in the dank, dark corners of his cell. the stump of stale bread he hasn’t touched, nestled beside a bowl of broth that’s grown film. food for the vermin. a showing of numbers while they multiply and scatter under occasional torchlight.
if he sleeps, it’s the drifting, foggy sort. nothing restful will be found under their marching and a prodding finger that reappears at what he can only guess is dawn. their brave commander with his pity-filled eyes. the inquisitor himself, choked up with questions. they’d sent a revered mother, once.. hadn’t seen hide nor hair of her since. something he’d said, no doubt. how he’d spat at her feet and remarked on a false prophet like he were hungry for her. a chantry worth toppling.
somewhere among the blurs he thinks of corypheus. samson stretches his legs to length and, once his knees begin their protest, he settles on his obscured face. on the blighted remains of a sinister thing. what ought have been his means to an end but ;
better he think of her.
calpernia.
where the world is mottled in discoloration, she appears clearly. her hair is down. other times it’s not. rolled eyes and a bitter sneer begin to change over time.. she smiles and that image is where he lays transfixed. a constant pillar of safety that doesn’t shift or burden him with awful alternatives. spiced ale and a map across the table, he moves her pieces where they need go and she allows this of him. morbid a thing to cherish, he supposes, the bite of his shackles what keep him from the fade’s embrace. how manacles are jostled.. how, in their tilt, he can almost see her face, even now—
“ he’ll not give y’ what y’ want, ” slurred around a swollen tongue, chapped lips will a split that begins at the corner and works its way outward. “ ‘s all make-believe. ” he knows. always knew, in his own way. ate from the offered refuse corypheus gave and used what he could to make it worth it. “ ..y’ are too. ” a crutch that is leant into, the weight of it nearly real enough to hold him.
“ ain’t ever seen y’ look like that, ” disheveled. sunken, sallow eyes under the wide brim of a broad hood. laugher in a cough bubbles quite the same, “ doesn’t suit y’ much.. cloak ‘n dagger’s not your style. ” / @feybled

Press release: Supporting modern and voluntary family planning
The UK will save the life of one woman every 90 minutes through its global leadership in supporting modern, voluntary family planning, International Development Secretary Priti Patel will announce today (Tuesday, 11 July) at a major international summit.
Today there are 214 million women around the world, who despite not wanting to get pregnant, aren’t using modern contraception. Progress has been made globally to reach more women with family planning services, but more needs to be done.
Voluntary family planning saves lives by enabling women to plan, and have fewer, pregnancies – reducing their risk of death through unsafe childbirth. This risk is very high in the world’s poorest countries, especially for adolescents.
At today’s Family Planning Summit, Ms Patel will set out an increased support package - boosting and extending the UK contribution until 2022 - to provide voluntary, modern family planning to women in the world’s poorest countries across Africa and Asia.
The UK’s total package of support until 2022 will every year:
help save the lives of over 6,000 women by preventing maternal deaths – that’s one woman every 90 minutes;
support 20 million women to receive voluntary contraceptives through family planning services;
help avert 6 million unintended pregnancies; and
help prevent the trauma of 75,000 stillbirths and nearly 44,000 new-born deaths.
The London Summit is co-hosted by Ms Patel, Melinda Gates (Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation) and Natalia Kanem (UN Population Fund – UNFPA), and will look at practical measures to reduce costs and increase availability for the millions of women who want contraception, but can’t afford it or get hold of it.
Africa’s population is rising to unsustainable levels, with Sub-Saharan Africa passing the one billion mark this year. Giving people access to voluntary family planning helps slow population growth and makes real economic sense. For every £1 spent, governments can save over £4 which can in turn be spent on improving health, housing, water sanitation and other public services.
In her key note speech, Ms Patel will highlight the UK’s global leadership in responding to the urgent need for voluntary family planning; the innovative technology being used to reach women in the poorest communities across Asia and Africa and call on others – including businesses – to do more.
International Development Secretary Priti Patel said:
“It’s truly astonishing that in today’s world there are still 214 million women around the world who do not want to get pregnant, but who are not currently using modern methods of family planning.
“Britain is leading the world on sexual and reproductive health, helping millions more women in the world’s poorest countries to access and use desperately-needed family planning services.
“This new UK aid support will provide 20 million women with voluntary contraception, change the lives of 6 million women by allowing them to avoid unintended pregnancies and prevent the trauma of 75,000 still births.
“But this isn’t a job for the UK alone and that’s why at this global Summit governments from around the world have come together to make commitments on family planning to address the long term need and unsustainable population growth.
“We are supporting the world’s poorest women to take control of their lives, so they can finish their education, get better jobs and in turn provide for their smaller, planned families rather than being trapped in a cycle of grinding poverty through unplanned pregnancies.”
The Summit will address several pressing issues, including:
addressing the need in emergency situations. Family planning remains one of the biggest gaps in humanitarian response, leaving women at risk of maternal death or having to resort to unsafe abortions. The Summit will address this so that women experiencing humanitarian crises can obtain the contraceptives that they need to protect their health;
blockages that mean that contraceptives that are supposed to be available simply don’t make it onto the shelves;
making sure women have a choice in contraceptives, along with accurate information, so they can opt for the product that suits them best be it short term, long lasting or permanent. More choice will lead to more uptake; and
the specific barrier faced by adolescents - both married and unmarried - including a critical lack of access to accurate information and the cultural barriers around adolescent sexual activity, which can further restrict contraceptive provision for this group.
In addition to saving lives by stopping women from dying in childbirth, investing in family planning provides long term life-changing benefits for women and their families, communities and countries.
It means women can make their own decisions about their own lives and futures, and helps stop the cycle of grinding poverty, improving lives now and in the future. This means local economies can grow, in turn boosting global prosperity, which is in everyone’s interests.
The UK put family planning on the international agenda with the inaugural 2012 Family Planning Summit where a goal was established to help 120 million additional women and girls use modern, voluntary family planning by 2020.
Britain is the second largest bilateral donor of family planning in the world. Since the 2012 Summit, the UK has helped nearly 8.5 million additional women to access modern methods of contraception.
Notes to editors:
At the 2012 London Summit on Family Planning, the UK Government committed to spending £180 million per year on family planning until 2020. With this new commitment the UK Government’s support will be an average of £225 million per year until 2022, an additional £45 million a year for 5 years. The £45 million is new funding for family planning.
A full programme for the summit can be found here.

#Repost @melindafrenchgates (@get_repost) ・・・ This week, I’m in London to mark an important milestone. Five years ago, leaders from all over the world came together to insist on making family planning a global priority. Together, we made a promise to enable 120 million more women and girls to use modern contraceptives by 2020 with the goal of achieving universal access to contraceptives for everyone, everywhere. Now, we’re back in the U.K. to celebrate our progress and prepare to meet the challenges ahead. #HerFuture
