~ Tea and Timing: A Kasper Short Story~

While venturing through the halls of Tumblr, searching for writing prompts, I happened upon a lovely writing challenge: @comfy-vember! It's centered around platonic relationships and comfort prompts (especially after the pain of Whumptober...) and I have been very inspired to drabble for my own characters.

So, I have returned with a short story of one of my favorite pairings: Kasper! (a.k.a Katrina, the main character of my novel, and Jasper, the secondary main character of my novel) And even though they aren't currently a canon ship right now... I still adore writing them little AU stories and fantastical imaginings. And hopefully y'all enjoy them too ^w^

This is��Tea and Timing, told in Jasper's POV. Kat hasn't been doing so well lately... and he wants to help.

Word Count: 1.1k

Content Warnings: One character has scars from previous trauma, that she got from sci-fi government-induced torture. She also has a mild anxiety attack during the story. 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

It’d been so long.

Four years, now?

I linger at the door, the two mugs in my hand steaming spiced warm air. Hot chocolate, topped with plenty of whipped cream and a peppermint stick for her. Chamomile for me.

She’d been sitting there for an hour. Tucked into the couch cushions. Staring into space. Her fingers tracing patterns over the ragged scars on her arms. Tinted blue and brown and red…

My throat tightens. Just thinking about it. Everything she’d be through. Everything they did. Our government—the people who were supposed to protect her—subjected her to a ghost of who she’d been.

And I hadn’t been able to do anything to stop it.

I softly clear my throat, walking over. She flinches slightly, her gaze snapping to me, before a faint smile flits across her face. Though it doesn’t quite reach her eyes.

“Hey. Didn’t see you there.” She murmurs, crossing her arms tight around her stomach. I smile back, shrugging as I sink down into the cushions next to her.

“It’s okay. Wanted to let you rest.”

She nods, shrugging and glancing away.

“I brought your favorite.” I hold out the mug.

She takes it with another ghost of a smile, hands tightening around the mug like a lifeline.

I lean back into the couch cushions, taking a sip of my tea as I watch her out of the corner of my eye.

She seems so much smaller, in so many ways. So much thinner. Her eyes are so much dimmer. Surrounded by the dark signs of all her sleepless nights. Gazing into the distance—as if replaying everything, in her head, over and over and over again. Knowing her, that was exactly what she was doing.

Sometimes, I could catch a glimpse of that spark of hers—when we went back to her favorite chocolate shop. Or last week, after attending a classical violin concert. The spark had been there, for almost two hours, and she’d raved about the music and the composition and the light of it all.

But then we’d gotten back home, and the house was quiet, and the spark faded after I’d accidentally let a bit of the news play from my watch. She’d gone to bed, and I heard her later. Making hot chocolate in the kitchen like she always did after her nightmares.

“I was thinking… maybe we could try to find another concert to go to.” I say softly, glancing at her. “Or—I don’t know, is ballet too typical for you?”

She smirks faintly, her gaze flicking to mine. “Ballet is fine. As long as it’s not like—I don’t know, all pirouettes or something. A concert sounds nicer though.”

I nod, flicking my holowatch open and scrolling through a couple upcoming symphonies I’d saved. “I thought so. There’s a fantastical one coming through in a couple days—a kind of Saga of Stars feel, you know?”

She nods, glancing away again and taking a sip of her hot chocolate. “Sounds good.”

“Mmhm.” I flick my watch away.

The silence hangs heavy for a moment.

I glance at her. “Hey, you doing okay?”

“That’s a very generalized question.”

“Maybe.”

She shrugs, tilting her head. Gripping her mug again. “I’m fine. Y’know. It’s weird. But yeah.”

“Just fine?” I say softly.

She smiles, her gaze locked on the whipped cream in her cup, slowly melting into the chocolate. “Just fine.”

“Kat…”

“Really, Jasper, I’m fine. I’ll be fine. I’m just tired.” She shoots me a smile, setting her mug down on the coffee table and pushing to her feet. I frown, setting my mug aside and standing as well.

“You’ve been tired for months.”

She snorts, turning away. “No duh.”

I reach out, catching her arm and pulling her back towards me. “Kat, please. I wanna help you, you shouldn’t have to… live like this.”

She shrugs, her fingers fidgeting at her bracelet as she avoids my gaze. I stay quiet, gently holding her shoulders, just waiting.

“I’ll be okay. I just need time.” She whispers.

“Healing time. Not time to let your mind spiral.” I whisper.

She winces, starting to pull away. “I—”

“I’m not trying to make you feel bad.” I say, holding her still. “I just… maybe we can figure out someway to help more.” I gently squeeze her shoulders, tilting my head down to try and catch her gaze. “I want to help you, Kat. But I can’t if you won’t let me. And I know… it’s hard. But I just wanna see you better. See you happy again. And I promise I’ll do whatever I can to help that. Help you.”

She chews on her lip, hard. Gaze locked to the ground still.

“I don’t know.” She whispers, after a moment. I just…” She stops, fingers pulling at her bracelet. “I don’t know how to. I don’t know what to do—how to fix this, really. Like if there was something we could do I would’ve tried to do that already but I can’t figure out how—” Her voice cracks into a hiccuping gasp. “I tried—”

“It’s okay.” I pull her a little closer. Giving her space to pull away, if she wants to. “We’ll figure it out. I promise.”

She sucks in a shaky breath, her shoulders tightening, before she leans forward, hugging her arms around my waist and tucking her head against my chest. I hug her close, gently rubbing circles against her back.

“It’s okay.” I whisper against her hair. Slowly rocking her back and forth. “I know… it hurts. But it’ll get better.”

Kat’s breaths crumple into shaky, hiccuping gasps. But she stays quiet. We both do, for a long moment. Just resting in the moment.

Her breaths gradually slow—shallow, but calmer. A little steadier. I keep my breathing slow, and deep, and steady. Just holding her.

“Are… are you sure?” Kat whispers after a long moment, her voice muffled against my chest.

“What?” I glance down at her.

She sucks in another breath, her fingers tightening against the fabric of my shirt, before she glances up at me, her eyes faintly bloodshot with tears. “You’re sure it’ll get better?”

“Yeah. Little by little—and I’ll help you. With lots of hugs, and lots of talking under the stars, and lots and lots of chocolate.” A small smile tugs at her lips at the mention of chocolate. I smile slightly back, brushing her hair from her face. “But eventually—it’ll get better.”

She nods slightly, her gaze flickering down for a moment as she inhales. Slowly. Steadying.

“Okay.”

"The Indian Removal Act of 1830 The annexation of 55 percent of Mexico in 1848 The forced taking of the Philippines The forced taking of Puerto Rico The forced taking of Hawaii Japanese internment camps The destruction of a thriving Black community in Tulsa, Oklahoma The destruction of a thriving Black community in Rosewood, Florida Past and present-day redlining The abandonment of Black New Orleanians during and after Hurricane Katrina Predatory lending leading to the subprime mortgage crisis that wiped out billions in Black wealth

This is just a short list but, I hope, you get where I am going with this. Our American history is simply too rife with documented instances in which land occupied by people of color has forcibly been taken, preyed upon, intentionally devalued, or flat out destroyed for any well-meaning white people to roll their eyes when an old Black woman says that she believes that white people had an organized plan to take land occupied by Black people in D.C."

Lindenwood MCC: Spring Year 1 #100

In celebration of the New Year, Lady Montanne was hosting a picnic at the Village Green.

"How wonderful it is to make your acquaintance," she said to Franco and Jeames.

Franco, despite his appearance, was an expert conversationalist. He spent the entire luncheon chatting with Lady Montanne.

Later that afternoon, Anne cornered Lady Montanne.

"How dare you flirt with my husband, you little hussy!"

Lady Montanne was shocked.

Did she really just...hit me??

"I assure you, I am not interested in your husband. Now leave me alone!"

She'd heard from Ibota Baker, the Castellan of Lindenwood, that Anne was going to be spending some time in jail. Lady Montanne could understand why.

Can't believe this is my 100th post! Thanks for reading along! ^_^

[jatp-headcannon-theories]

so i got tagged by @stars-soph (thank you darling💕) to list my 10 fave female characters from 10 fandoms so let's get to it!

Pippy from Rosewood

Gwen from Total Drama

Caitlin Snow from The Flash

Flynn from Julie and the Phantoms

Katrina (Kat) Stratford from 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)

Alice Cullen from Twilight

Maria DeLuca from Roswell (1999)

Rizzoli from Rizzoli and Isles

Elizabeth (El) Burke from White Collar

Edrisa from Prodigal Son

This is not the first time America has paid restitution or reparations to the survivors of racial atrocities. In 1998, the United States pledged to pay $1.25 billion to Japanese-Americans and their heirs. That amount is in addition to the $1.65 billion previously paid out to 81,278 claimants.

But when it comes to the United States paying reparations to Blacks who suffered oppression and genocide, there is no money forthcoming. Taking aside the argument that descendants of former slaves of the United States are more than deserving of economic justice, what about the 20th century Black Holocaust? There are, in fact, incidents where many of the survivors are still living:

The bombing and burning of “Black Wall Street” in Tulsa, Oklahoma 1921

The burning and lynching of Rosewood, FL 1923

Moore’s Ford Bridge Massacre 1947

Church burnings that took place from 1954-2015

Illegal and unconstitutional arrests of Blacks during the Civil Rights movement

Jim Crow laws enacted at the state and local levels and ignored at the federal level

The implications of the CIA linked crack epidemic in Black communities

Hurricane Katrina victims living below the poverty line

The sad part about these tragedies is that this is just a short list of events that are deserving of restitution. What does it take for restitution or reparations for Blacks in the United States?

Austin-Aggressive

I have been salting this bad earth.

With every meal at some chain restaurant

(because I am poor and I hate that

hot, cramped, Metropolitan kitchen)

I rip open a tiny salt packet from Wendy's

or Jack-in-the-Box and pour it over

a bush, tree roots, the thin brown grass

around a tired, bent stop sign.

The people here are tired, bent stop signs--

I salt them, too. I dump salt from Burger King

on the sandstone stoops of buildings, and on sedans.

I fling Chik-Fil-A salt on the pigeons

that scrap over waffle fries and strut.

~

There are not enough salt packets

and fries don't come with Napalm--so, please

Katrina, if you have a sister--

I know a great place to eat.

🔎YA Under the Radar Part 2🔍

In December 2018, I put together a list of books that I’d read and loved which had less than 10,000 ratings on Goodreads. In March, I added a few more titles to the list and went to do the same today only to find I had a very long list of underrated books to share with you all. So was born Part 2! 

They’re all YA and as of October 2nd, had less than 10,000 ratings on Goodreads. Some series do have one or two books over that threshold but if the sequels were all under, I included them. It was interesting to see again that most titles were from the UK or Australia and that there were several returning authors with lots of books on both lists. 

Feel free to add your own under the radar reads, just be sure to check they meet that ratings requirement 😊 I’ve also add some emojis to denote LGBT+ (🏳️‍🌈) or disability (♿️) representation!

Noticias de series de la semana: Versace llegará antes de lo esperado

Versace antes que Katrina

La grabación de 'Katrina', la que iba a ser la próxima entrega de American Crime Story y nos contaría las consecuencias de la llegada del huracán a la Costa del Golfo en 2005, se ha retrasado debido tanto a los huracanes que asolan la zona actualmente como a problemas con los guiones. Se desconoce si Annette Bening, Dennis Quaid o Matthew Broderick podrán ajustar sus agendas para seguir siendo sus protagonistas. De momento sabemos que 'The Assassination of Gianni Versace', que lleva su producción muy avanzada, se ha convertido en la segunda temporada y llegará a FX a principios de 2018, unos seis meses antes de lo planeado inicialmente.

Carmichael, indignado

A Jerrod Carmichael le parece "criminal" y contraproducente que NBC retirara el episodio de The Carmichael Show que mostraba un tiroteo. La cadena decidió no emitir dicho episodio el pasado miércoles, horas después de que el congresista republicano Steve Scalise recibiera un disparo en un entrenamiento de béisbol de un equipo de legisladores. Cuatro personas más resultaron heridas en este lugar. El mismo día, un conductor de UPS mató a tres compañeros de la sede de San Francisco y luego se suicidó al verse acorralado. Aunque es una práctica habitual en la televisión americana, el protagonista de la serie entiende la decisión de NBC como empresa privada pero añade que, en su opinión, no creen que el país sea suficientemente inteligente para manejar algo honesto, real y respetuoso y que refleja conversaciones que se dan en cualquier familia. La cadena planea emitir el episodio más adelante.
