i think it's worth noting that the two coaches in messi's life who were able to get the most out of him and get sainted in return are pep and scaloni, who have one thing in common: being obsessed with messi

PAC: How Does Your Higher Self Define Womanhood?

Hello, beautiful people. Today marks the last post of the Women’s History Month series & one of two posts made today! I am excited to continue to create content for you guys. And I am even more grateful for the support I have received as of lately. Because of this, I will continue to post creative tarot readings. So, without further ado, please pick your pile.

Left-to-Right: (1-4)

Pile 1: Pile One, your story reminds me of the Miss Congeniality plot. Basically, Sandra Bullock plays a detective that goes undercover as a beauty pageant contestant. At first, she rejects the ideas of what it means to be a “girly girl” but eventually conforms to the standards. She viewed femininity as a sign of weakness and did not like being around other women because she felt that she had to prove herself to be tough. But she gained respect for the girls who worked in these pageants as she worked undercover because she began to acknowledge the hard work it takes to be in the pageants. By the end, she is closer to her womanhood. You have a similar story. I doubt that you’re a detective reading this but I feel as though you may have the tendency to thoroughly investigate any piece of information. To your higher self, womanhood means constantly being on the search for answers to placate the inner child wounds that lie within you. I feel like when you were younger, you may have been an outcast or a tomboy, maybe both. Because of this, you have set a lifelong quest to figure out what being a woman means to you whether it is intentional or not. Your higher self wants you to know that being a woman comes with all types of trauma, but remembering that you do not have to face it alone. You do not have to carry the burdens alone. You see, women are conditioned to be demure for the sake of keeping the peace but that’s not what works for you. Embrace the messy parts of yourself because if you don’t, life will get boring. Part of your mission is being aware of your multifaceted nature; reject conformity, embrace the abnormal, babe.

Cards Used: The Sun, 4 of Cups, 4 of Swords, 5 of Wands, Ace of Cups, The Magician, 5 of Cups, 3 of Cups, 3 of Swords.

Signs: Aquarius, Libra, Leo, Sagittarius.

extras: money getter. cash grabs. “low hanging fruit.” airhead. wallpaper. phineas and ferb. “sharon.” beetles. s.o.s. by rihanna. “tinge of an accent.” sweet. mirrors. coconut trees. hawaii. stubborn. radioactive.

Pile 2: Pile Two, there is a similar vibe that you have to Pile One, except I don’t think that you have problems with accepting your femininity. I think that you have problems with how masculines function in society. I am sensing a Lori Harvey type of energy here. This is likely related to the way that you operate when it comes to love. People tend to want to possess you so that they can show you off like a trophy. But your higher self wants you to know the difference between users and the genuine thing. I feel like you’ve developed this flighty persona to protect yourself from harm. While experiencing the many tribulations of womanhood, you have adopted the “flights over feelings” type of mindset. How has that been working out for you? No, really. Is it actually working or have you convinced yourself that it has. As a woman, your higher self thinks that womanhood is finding love in a loveless world. This isn’t necessarily about romance, but it’s just a mindset that you should adopt. It will save you from falling victim to the cycles of toxicity that plague society. It’s a cold world out here, babe but it doesn’t mean that you have to be as cold as the world. Part of your mission is forgiving yourself and those who hurt you so that you can see the beauty in the world. With this newfound sight of beauty, there comes true inner power.

Cards Used: The Devil, 7 of Discs (RX), 8 of Wands, The Hierophant, 3 of Swords, 3 of Cups, 10 of Discs, The Star, 10 of Cups (RX).

Signs: Capricorn, Cancer, Scorpio, Virgo.

extras: two can play that game. all about love by bell hooks. renegade. open arms. country music lover. tony montana. archer (2009). “logan.” phoenix rising. “marcus.” ashy. corny. cerebellum. stupendous.

Pile 3: Pile Three, your higher self defines womanhood as something that is both sweet and sour. It is something that she takes for granted but it is also something that she takes pride in. It’s a strength but also a weakness. I feel like I am talking to someone who has an ingenue/youthful spirit. I channeled the character Darla from The Little Rascals but I also channeled Charlotte from Princess and the Frog. You seem to be very in tune with your inner child and there is nothing wrong with that. Your inner child is heavily protected by the teenaged version of yourself, which seems very angry. These different versions of yourself often clash with one another, which can lead to bouts of depression and confusion. Your higher self is a woman who pours into herself through movement and self-expression. You need to channel these negative energies into creativity or else you will be stifled by your own thoughts. You honestly need to get out of your head. Your higher self feels as though there is a flip side to every coin that you get. For example, if you are having period pains, it may hurt but at least you’re not pregnant! Looking on the brighter side of life is how you can be closer to your higher self.

Cards Used: 5 of Swords, 6 of Swords, Page of Swords, Justice, 4 of Cups, Ace of Cups, Ace of Discs, 5 of Wands, The Hanged Man.

Signs: Leo, Pisces, Aries, Gemini.

extras: janet jackson. “i’m da man.” we will rock you. parties. diva. elle magazine. shapely. “how’d you figure?” honest answers only. maya angelou. glorilla. lola bunny. fatigue. body aches. deodorant. small bowls. annual. prayers. mark on the cheek. boot camp. “your highness.” shredded cheese. livelihood.

Pile 4: And last but not least, Pile Four. I feel like you are well sought after in the most lusty way possible. This has its perks, but lately, you feel like it has more cons than anything. I feel like you’re someone who always seems to feel isolated because of this. As a result, your higher self views womanhood as foreign. The amount of power that you hold as a woman is beyond explanation. There are so many ways that you can present yourself, Pile Four. I don’t think you have realized your true potential. Yes, you have gone through trauma because people assumed that you could handle the weight of the world but this means nothing to your spirit. Wake up! Don’t you realize how unique you are? Pile Four, womanhood can really only be defined by you, not by anyone else. The prioritization of yourself will help you make a name for yourself. You could be in your 20s, tired and just wanting a change. Well, your higher self wants you to know that change will come once you begin to change the narrative yourself. If you believe something about yourself that was told to you by someone else, then it means that you’re easily moldable. Being a woman means rising to the top even through the facings of opposition. You are a fighter. So the question is: when are you going to jump in the ring and fight for your sense of self, Pile Four.

Cards Used: Ace of Cups, Queen of Wands, 3 of Discs, Knight of Discs, Ten of Swords, 4 of Discs, The Hermit, Queen of Swords, 9 of Discs.

Signs: Gemini, Pisces, Cancer, Virgo.

extras: “tart.” “fresh out the shower.” burgundy. melons. net worth. SWer. dollar bills. illegal documents. molly. friendless. stoned. be your own boss. cake baker. sister, sister. wiseman. silly goose. fall. saturn.

So I headcanon that post-rottmnt-movie Leo's a part time cane user like me!

And I also headcanon that:

Donnie will absolutely go ham on designing a tactical cane for him.

[ Item Key/Explanations ] + [ Extra Text/Overlays Off ] below the cut

Key (damn I hope this image makes some sense and its not too messy):

The cane itself is used as a mobility aid and can assist in combat if needed in a pinch. edit: *note, for practicality, these are mainly reserved for situations where Leo does not have other options. Most of the time, it is a normal cane :)

Handle of the cane twists off and with and can switch into a blade

A panel with the MAD DOGS symbol pops out - this can holographically project messages and be used for communication

Bottom part of the cane can turn into a stun gun. AKA: Shocky shocky electric violence <- he'd use this the most

It can also fold/form out into a grappling hook shape — hold down a specific button and aim it like a grappling gun!

Handle can form into a sharper, hooked shape w/ a harder exterior

Twists the handle end a different direction and you get a glass breaking tool

Yes, you can use this cane design for your fanfics/fanart/AUs/etc. (no pr0sh;p content please) but please please please credit me!

TYSM for all the support on my first Leo cane post :)!!

[cutielights]

Mikey + Twin! reader (platonic)

Tw: none

Yk how Leo and Donnie are pretty much twins? Yeah this is that but with Mikey. Inspired by @normal-internet-user (I hope you don’t mind, I can totally take this down if you do)

Donnie’s Version

Double trouble to the MAX

Both of you having adhd

When you guys were both turtle tots you made a language only the two of you could understand

Still speaking in that language in your teens

Refusing to teach the others said language

Seemingly able to read each others mind

Protecting Mikey around water (box turtles cannot swim very well, only doing so when cooling off or absolutely necessary)

Sitting in silence, staring intensely at each other

Is it a staring contest?

No, it’s just an entire conversation with purely eye contact

Definitely plotting something

Raph’s chasm is getting deeper just looking at the two of you

Begging your siblings to let you go on solo’s

Getting fed up with being babied

Vandalism in New York after dark

Attempting to get Donnie to eat Hawaiian Pizza

Now banned from bringing any kind of pineapple into his lab

The two of you being the most emotionally capable out of all of the gang

Being Mikey’s best and only taste tester, much to Leo’s dismay

Sharing a room, half and half

Both half’s as messy as the other

I know everyone in the group is shorter than Raph, but you guys are come up to roughly his waist

Might as well glue you guys together at this point, rarely seen without the other

Causing mischief

Best past time tbh

Creator Spotlight #19: stillattherestaurant

Welcome back to the TWW Author Spotlight! For every spotlight, we’ll ask each featured author the same ten questions, as well as your questions submitted via Twitter. This week we are so happy to welcome to the spotlight AO3 user stillattherestaurant (@thingswithpaper on Twitter)!

1) What are your top 5 desert island fics by other authors?

https://archiveofourown.org/works/37131781 all i’ve ever known by sam_writes_fics

Sam has written so so many of my favourite fics, and I wanted to share the love across authors, so choosing one was very difficult, but this au is one of my favourites, and the amount of times I’ve reread this must number at least ten.

(Honourable mention to the uncompleted august, honey (you were mine) also by Sam, the Sam/Josh fic that ruined my life and continues to whenever I reread. Camp counselors is so!!! My heart!!!! Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40285125)

https://archiveofourown.org/works/34995025 summer, highland falls by crossingdelancey

This CJ&Josh fic absolutely ruins me every time I read it, because them being step siblings and learning to tolerate each other? Fuck yeah. CJ kissing a girl and Josh not telling anyone? Ruins me every time.

 https://archiveofourown.org/works/34783816 closer by rearviewmirror

If there’s one thing about me I’m going to absolutely lose my shit over religious trauma, and something about this fic really fucking ruins me. I’m a sucker for a college au in addition to it, and something about Leo and Jed in college is so very insane. I’m also a big believer in Leo and CJ bonding over religious trauma and it makes me want to write something about that (because… listen I don’t think anyone on this show is straight except maybe Toby).

 https://archiveofourown.org/series/2601712 professor josh (series) by hufflepuffhermione

I could not choose just one of these works so I’m going with the whole series! Alli, this was the first fic I fell in love with in TWW fandom, and I come back to it often.

 https://archiveofourown.org/works/35532172 the world is getting warmer, running out of air (but you can send me way up to the stratosphere) by scamophogoghs

Listen, this is maybe the hottest Josh/Donna fic I’ve read. Ever. I’m not getting stranded on a desert island without it. 

 2) Do you have a favorite character to write? Favorite ship(s) to write? Are there characters or ships you'd like to write more of?

I love writing Josh and Donna, obviously, and from those I think Donna’s voice comes easier to me, and I really enjoy exploring the parts of her life that aren’t talked about in canon - like why she left her boyfriend, and her feelings about Josh across the series (that are more than just drop dead in love, although there’s plenty of that too!).

I wrote one Sam/Josh fic, and enjoyed it so much that I’d definitely want to write more on them, and if the right idea comes to me I’d love to explore Helen more, she fascinates me.

 3) Tell us about your writing process (setup/location? Night or day? Snacks/beverages? Computer/phone/notebook? Music or silence? Anything else you want to share is welcome!)

Really whenever I find time! I work and study, and so for me it’s less about when inspiration strikes and more using the times I’m free. I’ll listen to music always - and I’ve been known to make playlists for even the shortest of fics to get me in the mood. Sometimes if I have ideas but I can’t outline it there and then, I’ll get it into my notes app, then copy it over to a document later, where I’ll do a brief outline (a very messy paragraph summarising it), then start writing.

 4) What writing advice do you have for others who may be reading this?

Start where you’re comfortable. My biggest roadblock is coming up with ideas, and so I take details from my own life sometimes, and think about how I can twist it to suit a character or ship - projection has gotten me through a LOT of fics! Also, just the act of writing something can help, even if it’s just a short drabble, it might spark something.

 5) From where do you usually draw your inspiration? (Other forms of media, music, tropes, etc?)

I write a lot of song fics, even if I don’t explicitly call it that - often I’ll listen to a song and think about one lyric in a character or ship context, and then all of a sudden, I’m outlining a whole fic based on it. If I’ve been watching the show, sometimes I’ll think about scenes that aren’t shown, and write them (there’s a few of those sitting in my drafts), and use it as a jumping off point for canon divergence or deleted scenes.

 6) What is the fic you've written that you're most proud of and why?

Definitely my phone call Josh/Donna fic - it’s inspired by an episode of Halt and Catch Fire, and getting to put a spin on it when the characters are in a similar position (not talking to each other, then repairing a relationship) was very fun. I struggled a lot trying to make the jump cuts work without it being too jagged, but I think I managed it okay, and the dialogue features some of what I think is my best work.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/38136118

 7) What's the fic trope/concept/AU you'd read 1000 of? What's the fic trope/concept/AU you'd write 1000 of?

I would read so many friends to fwb to oh-shit-i’m-in-love-with-you fics. I’d read them all. Every single one. Unfortunately, I have minimal experience/talent in writing smut, so I can’t do my own wish-fulfillment, but I do love it so much as a trope in media and as a trope in fics.

I’d also read as many soulmate aus as is humanly possible. However it comes I’ll take it, I love the universe variation and the way it’s something new, but also so understood.

For TWW-specific, I would read a thousand fics about everyone’s reactions to Josh and Donna getting together. Particularly across the Santos-campaign era and then Santos-in-office era, there’s not enough of these fics and I would read SO MANY of them!!!! All of them in fact!!!

As for writing, I think I could write a lot of pining. In any form: divorce era, first meet but didn’t get a number (or equivalent), love of my life is with someone else, literally anything. I love it a lot.

 8) Is there anything you'd like to try writing-wise that you haven't yet?

I wish I had the patience to write something longer than 10k! I write so many short fics - 1-3k usually, and I’ve only ever written one fic that made it to 10k (and that was something that I was very very passionate about and might be my favourite fic I’ve ever written to this day). One day it’ll happen, I just have to find the right plot to enjoy and take my time with.

 9) What's your go-to Starbucks/coffee shop/other drink order?

I’m not really a coffee shop person, I mostly just drink tea at home and water! English breakfast decaf tea with milk and sugar is my go to.

 10) Do you have any current projects you'd like to promote or anything upcoming you'd like to tell us about?

I haven’t written for TWW in a while (I’ve been writing for another fandom, which has been fun, and something very different), but I just pulled up a WIP from a few months ago yesterday, which I’m a little excited about - Josh and Donna at Ellie’s wedding, some cute fluff and the smallest bit of hurt/comfort. Other than that, I’m just happy to be back, and looking forward to writing more for them this year!

Submitted questions:

From @mlea7675: What are your favorite WW ships?

Josh and Donna will always take number one for me, but I’m also in love with a lot of the Bartlets’ dynamic, and Sam/Josh holds a special place in my heart (for non-canon gay couples). There’s something about the inherent romcom of Josh and Donna’s story that gets me. CJ/Toby is another one I adore, they’re probably second to Josh and Donna for me! They should have been canon and I’ll die on that hill!!!!

 From @flowersinapril_: favourite post series headcanons (tww specific) / favourite AU tropes (all fic) xoxo

Oh this is a good one! For hcs, I love Josh and Donna getting married at the Bartlet’s farm, and the idea CJ and Josh dancing together in place of the usual first dance always makes my heart go !!! when I think about it. I’m also a massive fan of Sam and Donna phone calls after he leaves and then their regular catch ups when he comes back to D.C. (mostly talking about how stupid Josh is, and maybe commiserating over dating him).

For favourite AU tropes, I am a massive fan of childhood friends to lovers (I mentioned Sam’s earlier, and I’ve written one for another fandom), and any sort of modern AU also is a love of mine.

 From @sam_writes_fics: who is your favorite character that’s NOT a part of the main cast?

If it’s not clear from the amount of times I mention her, I am deeply in love with Helen Santos. I am of the belief she is severely underrated and a complex character the writers could have easily left as a far less major role (and she still didn’t get enough screen time in my opinion), but they still did a good job with her!!! I love her!!!

 From @jess_bakes_cakes: Which TWW character are you most like and why?

I honestly have no idea. When I first watched the show in 2021, it was with my family, and my mum always called me a mix of Josh and Donna (maybe the biggest compliment of my life), but I think I share a lot of qualities with Abbey too - stubborn, not willing to let go of things easily, but pushing aside that when it counts to be there for people. There’s the sense that she’ll be pissed at you for as long as it takes to get the point across, but no matter where you’re at, she’ll come through for you, and I like to think I’ve got some of that in me.

 From @donnamossburner: What is your favorite episode of TWW? And what is an episode you would rewrite if you could?

For favourite episode, I think 4x12 (Guns Not Butter) is the one that not a lot of people would say (although my other two favourites are 17 People and The Cold, so we know where my priorities lie), and I just love it so much!!! It’s got the iconic ‘steal the rest’ scene that I can recite verbatim at this point, the CJ and the goat fiasco, and it just feels very quintessentially TWW. Not only that, but the ending with the whole senior staff family, I’m just so in love with it!

The second part of this question I really had to think about, but I think I’ve finally come up with one - The Women of Qumar, 3.07/8. The whole thing with, well, first of all, Amy throwing the balloon out the window feels very off and is something I would like to not include, and also? My heart wants something more to come of the ‘are you dating your assistant?’ interaction. I do, however, love the CJ plotline, and the ‘shove it up your ass, Toby’ line, the delivery and the writing of that has stuck with me for a long time.

 From @bimadabomily: Unpopular west wing opinions?

I honestly cannot remember other people’s opinions on this, but Season 5 is not good on a first watch (and is still probably my least favourite of the seven), but on rewatches it becomes so much better because it sets up a lot of the white house dynamics in S6/7, and it recovers from the mess of the S4 ending in almost the best way it could have (although I wish we’d seen Zoey and Josh trauma bonding oh my god).

Final note from aurora:

Thank you so much to TWW Press for having me, I had so much fun doing this, and I’m super excited for 2023 and all that brings us <33

Thanks again to aurora and thanks to everyone who submitted questions! If you’d like to be featured in a future creator’s spotlight, send us a message here, email weeklypressbriefing@gmail.com, or DM us on Twitter!

Deckai anon is back but with a whole new concept and a whole new ship! I'm trying to write a fic but it turns out writing after months and months of not writing is hard so I'm gonna dump on you a little throughout my writing process.

So I've been loving the single parents au that you've had going on and always wondered how Leo ended up single which has not led me to KT x Leo divorced parents au where there's bitterness and resentment and angst with underlining friendship and only one of them being aware that they still kind of love each other. Ben is also there and Aaron and Rob will probably exist in this as well. KT only gets the child on weekends and the divorce was messy and mean and that's all I really know so far.

(Also sidenote, I thought I'd left kudos and then felt really bad when I realised I hadn't but its been amended!)

HELLO HELLO worry not cuz I have the antidote. this is my fave writing aid by chuck Palahniuk!

hope that helps!!

also; I'm into it. write it. do the "gift this work to user @ arsenalgbt" and I'm all set 🫡 can I ask one thing tho pls make lil gabi nelli their son??????? please??????? T_T

HAHA YES THANK YOU~ kudos and comments received. will reply later!

HEADCANONS

Although his main job is working at the local university studying and archiving various magical artifacts that they’ve obtained, he also gets regular calls regarding pesky spirits that plague homes and businesses. And, partnered with Gilbert Gladstone, he also semi-regularly cons people out of money, jewels, and other priceless artifacts.

Simon suffers from a rather peculiar curse, caused by a Spymaster’s stopwatch. Like nearly everyone, Simon is capable of dying…with the surprise twist of being able to regenerate after a time and return back to life. This is the result of tampering with the stopwatch - which would allow the user to temporarily stave off any harm done to their body. While meddling with the magic, however, the spell reflected back onto Simon and, upon his death, his body now “resets” to a previous state.

During his days in Port Alvarna, Simon and his partner, Han, lived together in an old lighthouse at the edge of the water. There was never much to do in terms of actually maintaining the lighthouse, although he did keep his eye on the lens and scheduling for various maintenance.

SPIRIT WARRIOR

House: Beltran Unique Gift: Mediumship From his childhood days, Simon has always been able to perceive the presence of ghosts near him, and the years he studied at House Beltran allowed for him to hone in on his ability better. He remains unable to turn off his ability to see ghosts - which so often plague his dreams - but in his waking hours, he can both summon and banish specific spirits, although spirits are capable of returning to their haunting grounds once Simon’s magic wears off. Because of his abilities, he is also more susceptible to possession, which he has difficulty preventing, and leaves Simon feeling cold and physically ill after. Magical Object: Spymaster’s StopWatch This stopwatch, once owned by a master spy, was previously used to temporarily preserve the user’s body to give themselves more time in case of emergencies. Once clicked, the user’s body would remain in a state of stasis for a single hour. Meaning that any afflictions and harm that came to their body wouldn’t take affect. However, at the end of the hour, any physical wound or harm that had come to their body would all take affect at once. Because of Simon’s tampering with the watch’s magic, it no longer works as originally intended; instead, the watch becomes more cracked and disfigured with each one of Simon’s deaths. License Status: Not Active

BIO

Simon’s father and stepmother were married for hundreds of years before his birth. And after such a long marriage…well…his father grew curious with the lives of mortals…and such, Simon was born. Well, his mother did not realize the effort it took to raise a child; and while as Simon grew older, he became more self-sufficient, she didn’t particularly enjoy being tied down to this tiny person. She attempted to drop him off with his father…only for his stepmother to, of course, grow angry that he’d ever been born at all.

Rather than stuck with a mother who believed he was too much work, or with a father who hadn’t wanted a child, Simon wound up stuck with his older sister, Min.

Their first few years together were far from easy, with neither entirely sure what to make of the other. And yet, they managed to make it work. Despite their large age gap as siblings, they had more similarities than differences.

Still, he grew up knowing that neither parent really wanted him. No one had, except for his sister.

And while he appreciated all she’d done for him, at some point, he still had to go his own way. At eighteen he applied to college and set out on his own. Perhaps it was his youthful ambition that believed he could do anything. Which…unfortunately lead Simon to a string of poor decisions, from tinkering with an old artifact ( which lead him to be cursed ), to entering a contract with a dreamshade ( who he occasionally regrets meeting ), to a messy relationship with a girl he never should have gotten involved with.

In an attempt to create his own space away from the mess he’d made, Simon found himself falling into the arms of his school rival, Han Jae Song. Once competitors for top in class, Simon found that Han wanted him, along with all the mess-ups he’d made along the way.

Some twenty years later, they’ve built a life together - and even brought in two children who had no family for the pair to take care of. He never thought he’d have a place for himself…and yet, he’d made one all on his own.

But life is not all sunflowers and daisies, as Simon is so well acquainted with. Han, bitten and turned into something no longer human. His young niece turned into seafoam before his very eyes. And his adoptive son, Jasper, plagued with his own magical condition…Simon knows it’s not possible to save everyone…but if he can at least right some of his own wrongs…maybe he’ll be able to keep some of his loved ones close.

Sometime in the future, when driving Red asks," what were you doing, The day you got kidnaped, anyways?"

Shows a flashback of Desmond going to GameStop to preorder Borderlands 2.

"I just realized! I never got to play boarderlands 2, because I got kidnaped by  goddamn Templars! I preordered it for nothing!"

(Show some Templar playing it somewhere)

"You also missed dishonoured. It's an absolute outrage! Lets do something about this!")

(One day they will go back in time, and pick Desmond's pockets to get it back.")

Piece of Eden thought out

Time travel pieces of Eden.

"Some Pieces of Eden were known to interact with and change the passage of time, possibly creating paradoxes. "

"When activated, Apples of Eden are capable of extending a pulse of energy that can drive those in the surrounding area to insanity and death. Doing so has a detrimental effect on the physical health of the wielder if they are unskilled in the Apples' use, but a capable user is not as easily afflicted.[8] Altaïr, for example, was able to use Apple #2 for a limited duration without adverse affects at age 92.[2] Using the Pieces' powers in short bursts can also minimize the negative effects dealt by the artifacts, though to what extent is unknown.[1]"

"According to emails read by Desmond Miles in 2012, at least one Piece of Eden existed that granted the ability to manipulate time. Concerns over possible paradoxes, however, led to Abstergo Industries locking it away.[16]"

So the pieces of Eden that could time travel were mentioned in an email, but never directly explored in game. Astrobo locked them up for fear of causing paradox. But they don't have all the pieces of Eden, and I think the ones in the ocean would be hardest to find intentionally, because the ocean current would be moving the small items around the ocean. So this one was discovered unintentionally by a man on an undersea exploration, who's young daughter had always been asking for a present. So he turned this piece of something he found into a necklace charm, and put it on a sterling silver chain.

She wore it, but it didn't activate until she was injured. See, I think the First Civilization made the TTEden pieces to escape dangerous situations, like battles, or incoming solar flares. When activated by injury, it takes them to a time without active combat, and to an ally who will get them healing. Be it future or past.

As someone with presumably some FC blood she has some minor control over it (she can travel 10min-so far-into the past and speed up her personal time movement to beat a hasty retreat) but not the bigger things, like where she ends up when injured.

Finally, it doesn't leave her. The necklace doesn't come off. It could activate whenever she suffers major injury. So she prepares for it, always carrying weapons and a backpack of things.
