Roland didn't frequent the strip club all the time but he was there on and off, as the mood struck him. Valentine's Day had gotten him some points with Rhys and he'd even gotten a kiss out of it which was an very encouraging sign but they still weren't back quite yet. He'd have to cook up a real grand gesture and he was already working on it. He needed a break, though, and had decided to treat himself by going up to the strip club and watching all the bodies on display there. He also sampled a few of the patrons, who generally seemed willing enough, and there was something about getting buzzed on blood from the vein that was just better than getting it from bloodwine.
The councilman was feeling quite good, though he wasn't that drunk all things considered, when from across the room he saw Raphael enter the club. Or, he thought at first glance it was Raphael but when he moved a little closer it was just someone who looked remarkably like the Italian councilman. Intrigued, Roland walked up to the bar where the rather younger looking man, Roland could now see, had settled. "I don't believe we've met." He mused, though didn't get an immediate response. His eyebrows rose until the man, a siren by the smell of him, turned to him and admitted that he'd been lost in his thoughts. Roland smiled indulgently and waved it away. "I was just saying I didn't think we'd met." He slid onto the stool next to the man, studying his features. Very much like Raphael, practically the spitting image, but there were subtle differences. The two must be related.
"Roland de Rochefort." He introduced himself with a smile. "When did you start working here?" He nodded at the staff collar around the other man's neck, wondering how such a pretty thing had escaped his notice. There had been quite a lot going on in his life, he supposed, but he intended to fix the oversight immediately. "Normally I take notice of beautiful new arrivals but I must have missed you somehow."
Having just finished up what felt like the most endless shift yet, Enzo had freshened himself up back at his suite before heading back out to grab a drink at Diabolus Luxuriam. The siren knew that even though he was alone, he likely wouldn't stay alone for too long once he got to the bar.
Greeting the bartender with a charming grin, Enzo leant against the bar as he ordered his first drink of the evening, going with a vodka, lime and soda, his eyes scanning the room for anyone that he might know. Lorenzo didn't really know that many people considering he was still fairly new to the castle, but he did recognise a few faces, including those of a couple of the council members. He was surprised he hadn't spotted Raphael in there, but he figured that he was likely busy with his own club -- plus, Enzo really didn't feel like speaking to his dad in a strip club of all places.
Lost in his thoughts for just a second, the siren's attention was suddenly brought back to reality when he realised someone was speaking to him -- someone who was the councilman of Belgium. Roland, if Enzo's memory served him correctly. They'd never met but Enzo had made sure he knew who the councilmen were should he ever run into them. "Oh, uh-- apologies, I was miles away there. Did you say something?"

Liam & Edie
Liam: [okay so wrong number text which isn't actually we know, which is just the location of some illegal rave moment that she'll wanna go to] Edie: treasure? ❌🗺 Liam: wooden leg would be useful to hide all the treasure we're bringing in Edie: Gutted I don't know anyone who's ever had an abscess go full necrotic ☠ Edie: and who wants to cart around a treasure chest Liam: don't wanna do your share of the heavy lifting, big surprise Edie: is it?

2, 3, 16, 41, 44, 45, 50 for the ask game? If you don't mind
I don’t mind at all, my fine Nonnymouse, and thank you for asking!
2. Favorite part of writing.
The moment of the new idea, when it hits and starts unfolding in your brain. That’s awesome. I think that’s the very best part, followed by the scramble for phone or paper or word doc to get it down so you don’t forget it. Then when you actually start writing, when you realise, yes, I actually can do this, this will work (and even though I curse the heavens when it’s happening, the moment when the story just hares off wildly from where you thought it was going into directions unknown and end up somewhere completely different is So Good.)
3. Least favorite part of writing.
If we’re being absolutely, completely honest: writing kissing scenes. I bitch, I moan, I whine. I complain to the cats ‘oh, good, these assholes are kissing. Again. Ugh’. I hate it. I mean, the emotional end result is GOOD, important, the payoff is worth it, but oh holy god is every word dragged out of me by tooth and toenails cause I. Just. Hate. It.
[going under a cut, cause this got longish]
16. Where do you take your motivation from?
I...don’t know? I can’t imagine not writing--or not having a story in my head I’m working out, since I really don’t write during the week, except for jotting story notes or maybe bits of scenes down when I’m on the train. I tend to take a break between stories, or like when I finished Black Dog, that was when the new WoW expansion dropped so I didn’t write for a few weeks, apart from making a few notes here and there, but I knew what I’d be writing next. So I’m not sure about the answer to this question. I guess I have a lot of stories in my head, a lot of Steves and Buckys, and they motivate me to write them.
41. How many stories do you work on at one time?
One. Only ever one at a time. I may get new ideas, and I jot them down in a word doc, but then I go back to what I’m working on. If I lose the thread of a story or don’t know where it’s going I may stop and set it aside and pick up something else, but it’s not going back and forth between two stories. I’m done with that first one until the new one is finished. I can really only give my attention to one story at a time.
44. Best piece of feedback you’ve ever gotten.
Answered this one already!
45. Worst piece of feedback you’ve ever gotten.
I’m going to put my own spin on this and judge the actual feedback, as the one I’m thinking of was the *worst*. If you’re going to leave negative feedback, my advice, well, my first bit of advice is: don’t. Just hit the back button and move on with your life. But if you simply can’t leave without saying something negative: at least know what you’re talking about! If you’re going to refer to something being too much of a negative trope, make sure you understand the trope! (Otherwise you look like an idiot). If you’re going to criticise the fic for doing something not possible in canon…make sure the fic isn’t clearly marked as an extremely-AU AU! (Again with the idiot-looking.)
Negative comments are something no one wants to get, but when you get one that’s just...daft, it goes a long way towards softening the blow. I’m lucky, I don’t receive many negative comments, but the one that included these was by far the worst, ie lowest quality, I’ve seen. I admit I deeply wished for the ability to red-pen it and return it marked with an F.
50. Weirdest story idea you’ve ever had.
Besides the ones I’ve already written? Lemme go look at my ideas folder… Okay, these aren’t actually all that weird compared to what I’ve already done. There’s a little reality TV blood sacrifice, a little love potion, a little wingfic, more ghost Steve, more creature fic, a soupcon of space opera, a little haunted Winter Soldier…
Look, it’s probably’ Bucky as a cat/Steve as a Mouse’ or ‘Steve gets turned into a horse’. Those were pretty weird. (Although I do have half an idea where Steve and Bucky are different kinds of winds, so if that goes anywhere, that might take the crown…)

Promises (F!Kiran x Alfonse version)
Hi everyone! So this is my English short story project that I'd done! This takes place after chapter 10, that's what the first half of the story is about. XD
Also, I didn't use my regular team, I just used the generic team (Alfonse, Sharena, Anna and Virion, but Virion is barely mentioned) because it would make more sense for my teacher. Also, for generic purposes, Kiran’s hair is black. XD
Anyways after I upload this I’m gonna upload the version that has my Summoner, Ayla in it. X3
Edit: here’s a link to the Ayla version: https://gamergirl8989.tumblr.com/post/167851174187/promises-ayla-x-alfonse-version-alright-so
Sorry for the longish Author's note, enjoy the story!
————
Kiran watches as her Heroes get struck down by the Radiant Hero Ike, biting her lip. Virion had gone down due to Ike having distant counter, Anna got beaten earlier by Mist and Soren, and Sharena had gone down because she was closest to Ike, but she was able to do a great deal of damage before being defeated. The only Hero she had left on the field was Alfonse, and Ike was the only enemy left on the field. Alfonse was down to 5 health, but Ike was down to 3. "You got this Alfonse! You can beat him!" The black haired Summoner shouts to the blue haired prince. The prince smiles a bit, running at Ike and dealing the final blow. Afterwards, both the Heroes and enemies came back to life. "We lost. But I have no regrets. You have showed us your strength. We're not enemies. Someday, somewhere... We might just meet again. I look forward to it." Ike says.
"We did it! Our homeland is saved. It's time to head back!" Anna declares with a smile. "Ugh, I'm so tired..." Sharena complains. Kiran couldn't help but chuckle a bit, looking around and getting a bit distracted. "Alright, Kiran, let's get-" Anna starts, but was soon cut off by a loud sound. "What was that?" the red haired commander asks, confused. This made the black haired Summoner look back over at the group. "No!" Alfonse starts. "The gateway, it's closing..." he says, as the group starts running. Unfortunately, Kiran wasn't a fast runner like the others, so she had some trouble keeping up. "Kiran, hurry! This way!" she could hear Alfonse shout, but as she leaped to go through the portal, it closed. "No!" Kiran shouts, falling to the ground, but quickly getting up and looking around frantically.
"Hello, Summoner. This time, it's just you and me." A girl's voice could be heard. 'No. Not Veronica, anyone but her, not now!' Kiran thinks frantically, turning around with fear. She was right, it was the Emblian princess, Veronica, standing behind of Kiran with her tome open. "Your bratty little friends are on the other side of the Gateway. There's no one to save you now..." The princess continues, as Kiran tries to get away, only to trip and fall. "I made a promise to you, and I intend to keep it. It's time to die." Veronica continues. Kiran was frozen in fear, starting to tremble. "I'll pop your head right off... Just like I used to do with my dolls." Veronica says, smiling wickedly. Kiran closed her eyes, taking a shaky breath, readying herself for the pain that was about to come.
But it never came. A sudden blast of magic came from the distance and hitting Veronica, making Kiran’s eyes snap open. "Who dares-?" Veronica says, surprised by what just happened, and fell down from the force of the attack. Kiran stumbles to her feet, knowing this was a good chance to escape. "Run, Kiran! Towards the light!" a male's voice shouts. A Gateway opens, and Kiran stood there, shocked. "Just go! Trust me! I'm Zacharias – Alfonse and Sharena's friend!" the mystery man, who claims to be Zacharias, shouts. Kiran nods, and starts running towards the gateway. Kiran sees a flash of light, which did concern her, but she kept running. "Keep going! Your almost there!" Zacharias shouts. Another flash of light appeared. "Kiran! You'd better watch out for Alfonse and the others!" was the last thing she heard Zacharias shouts, before seeing one more flash, jumping through the portal.
The next thing Kiran knew, she in a foresty area, tumbling to the ground as she went through the portal. "Oof!" She grunted as she landed on the ground. "Kiran!" she could hear Alfonse say. Ayla looked up to see the blue haired prince running over to her, followed by Sharena and Anna. They ran to Kiran, who was now getting back onto feet. "There you are. Am I glad to see you!" Alfonse says. "Oh, Kiran!" Sharena says, both her and Alfonse hugging Kiran. This caught Kiran off guard, but she hugs back to reassure them. "When I saw you disappear just like Zacharias did, I thought my chest would burst." He says, looking very worried. "Me too. I'm so glad you're safe. Seriously, don't do that." Sharena says. She looked like she had been crying. "I'm so sorry I worried you guys... But your friend, Zacharias, he saved me – Veronica found me and was about to kill me, and –" Kiran stops herself for a second, taking a breath. "It's... It's a long story, I'll tell you guys on the way back to the Order." She says exasperatedly, while Sharena and Alfonse pull away from the hug. "What? You say that Zacharias saved you? What are you talking about? How..." Alfonse says. "Let's talk later! We have to get out of here before they close the gateway on us again!" Anna shouts. Alfonse, Kiran and Sharena nod, and the group starts running back.
The next day, Kiran was sitting in a secluded part of the garden, trying to relax. Everyone in the Order of Heroes heard about what had happened the day before to her, and everyone was constantly asking her if she was okay. To Kiran, it was very exhausting, having everyone worrying over her. Even in the garden, she could still feel someone watching her, but she tries to brush it off. 'Probably just Feh...' She thinks, looking around and seeing the fluffy white owl sitting on a branch nearby. Kiran sighs, thinking about something else that happened yesterday. She expected Sharena to hug her, that was normal for her. But it wasn't normal for Alfonse to hug anyone. She sighs, trying to figure out what it could mean, blushing a tiny bit. She then heard rustling of leaves, making Kiran snap out of her thoughts, sighing. "If this is you, Kargero or Saizo, this is the third time I'm telling you, I don't need protection. I highly doubt that Veronica would sneak in here to kill me." Kiran says, sighing.
"You can't be certain about that, Kiran." Was the response she got, but it wasn't from either of the Hoshidan ninjas. She looked up to see Alfonse. "Oh! Alfonse, hey!" Kiran says, smiling a bit. "S-Sorry, Saizo and Kagero have been on me all day about my safety." She says sheepishly. "It's okay." Alfonse says, coming over to her. Kiran blushes a bit, but tried to hide it by pulling her hood up over her head. "Kiran? Are you okay? You've been acting off lately..." Alfonse says worriedly. "O-Oh, yeah, I'm fine!" Kiran says quickly. She was afraid of ruining the two's friendship if she was truthful about her feelings, especially if he didn't feel the same way. Alfonse frowns, having the feeling that she wasn't telling the truth. "Kiran, you can tell me." He says. Kiran gulps a bit. "I... I don't want it to ruin our friendship..." she mumbles, looking down slightly. "Hm?" Alfonse asks, not being able to hear her.
Kiran could feel her heart pounding wildly, sighing and standing up. "I..." She starts, unsure of how she should say this. Alfonse listens, frowning from worry. "I... I love you..." she says, quickly pulling her hood further over her face to hide her blush. Alfonse stood there, shocked. When Kiran didn't hear a response, she felt tears form in the corners of her eyes. "I-I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said anything..." She whispers, about to leave. However, she didn't expect Alfonse to grab her hand and hug her. "There's no need to be sorry." Alfonse starts, wrapping one arm around her, then letting go of Kiran’s hand to move her hood. Kiran looks at him, shocked. She was still blushing, not expecting this. Alfonse then leans in and kisses her. Kiran’s eyes widen a bit, but then closed her eyes and kisses back. After a few seconds, Alfonse pulls away, looking into Kiran’s eyes.
"...Because I love you too." Alfonse finishes. Kiran smiles and hugs him, her hood falling off her head in the process. Alfonse smiles and hugs back, resting his head on top of hers gently, being that bit taller than her. "I wasn't sure if you felt the same way, I was scared of ruining our friendship..." Kiran mumbles. "Well, I do feel the same, and I want you to know that I vow to protect you, Kiran." Alfonse says. Kiran smiles looking up at him. "Thank you, Alfonse... I swear, I'll help you all I can throughout this war, and stay by your side, and bring peace back to Askr." Kiran vows. Alfonse smiles, kissing her forehead. "Thank you..." he says. The two stay in each other's arms for a little, promising that they'd never abandon the other.
