She had been scared when she arrived, but her unflappable nature wouldn't let her show it. Sitting in the car provided for her, she simply read her instructions - honestly having been prepared to be kidnapped from a young age, she was able to appear calm, cool, and collected.

The issue, really, the glaring issue, was the mission that they were all meant to be embarking on shortly. She gnawed at her thumbnail, looking anxiously out the window as she waited for further instructions.

A phone was provided for her, it seemed, and she clicked through the applications. Nothing very familiar. She hesitated before opening the contacts. A plethora of unfamiliar names, and then-

[Dialing. . . ]

"Suletta!?" She had something prepared, a rant, anything else, but instead all she could say was a shaky, "You're here?" As she exhaled into the receiver, the car slowing down in a residential district.

starter for @mercurywitch !

house 103, supposedly the place that she's supposed to stay in while here. she's not too thrilled about ending up in a strange place without her knowledge again, but at the very least it looks like she'll have shelter until she figures out what happened. she double checks the device in her hand to make sure she's at the right place before going inside.

as soon as she steps into what looks like the cafe terrace back in the somniel, she encounters another person.

"oh uhm, excuse me!" she knew she would have a roommate but she didn't expect to encounter them so soon! "are you... mercury?" the fell dragon tilts her head slightly. "my name is veyle. i think we're suppose to be living here together...?"

[bitemedotmp3]

If you're me, then...

She's always wanted to be tall. This is a bit much, though. Way too high off the ground, and no balance-keeping subroutines to rely on. Humans do this all manually? This is awful. And then there's the... sensations. Do humans know they've always got fluids moving around and their bodies are making weird gurgling noises and there's nothing to filter every feeling bombarding her and the red is hurting her eyes and the air smells weird why does she think that what's going on?

"Ooh, this sucks. This sucks," groans Uzi. "Is this what human nausea feels like? I'm gonna be sick. I think?"

It's adjacent to drone nausea, but without the helpful pop-ups. She doesn't even have a HUD anymore, so it's just one awful thing after another. She looks over and up, then reminds herself she's tall now, and then looks down at her companion. Or, herself. Because it wasn't bad enough that Uzi became someone else, but someone else also became her.

"Hey, Suletta. Don't you have any frickin'... I dunno, any powers? Can you fly? Are you psychic? Magical? Cyborg? Literally anything?" she says, frowning. "Or is it just my luck I got stuck with a frickin' normie?"

"Suletta? Your actually here?" For awhile 621 was pretty sure they had just fallen off the face of the city. Or according to other people may have found her way back home. But there was no denying that very bright red hair in the distance. Even if they never really spoke too often.

"I thought you had gotten back to your own world safely. Or you know...something worse."

"Heh, I won't. Thanks, Suletta."

Lloyd smiled at the girl, bright and wide as she finished up wrapping a bandage around his hand. Of course, the one time he went without his gloves, he got himself hurt-- it was nice that she was there at the right time to help him out, but.. he did feel a little bad that she had to in the first place. Not that she seemed to mind at all, to his surprise.

"You've already done enough with this-- I'm sure I'll be better in no time, but I'll let you know if it gets any worse. I promise."

𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙘𝙖𝙣𝙤𝙣 𝙨𝙮𝙢𝙗𝙤𝙡𝙨! ✿: my muse and nature — by @mercurywitch

archer likes nature the way a plant likes the sun. their stone needs sunlight to recharge— it's their primary energy source. without any contact to the sun, they'd be asleep similarly to their hundred year nap, and would only awaken after laying in the light for a while.

they need the sun for energy, but they love and enjoy every other aspect of nature, as well. they like to sit in a meadow and feel the warmth of it on a hot summer day, or the wet dew on a chilly morning. they like smelling rain in the air and taste fresh snow. it somehow connects to their humanity— archer is a comet, and their home is the sky, the nothingness around diana. but their own nature, their own self, loves the planet below, the nature that it inhabits, the one that can't be found in space. they were made on diana, and they deeply connect to this other home of theirs.

somewhat related, they get nervous if they're cooped up for too long. sometimes that can't be avoided due to their disabilities and their need to rest, but they prefer being outside. if they're stuck inside, they get anxious and upset.

"Suletta?" Eri had spent most of the day wandering about in an attempt to get her bearings and find her family, relief flooding her chest when she identified her younger sister. Everything was confusing right now- Aerial was tiny, she couldn't connect to the data storm anymore, and she had a physical body. But things were looking up now, and she was certain she could make sense of it all once she found mom.

"Suletta! What h- ah!" Still unused to the feeling of gravity and need to balance herself while walking, she stumbled forward; clunky space suit not helping. "Urgh..."

[indomitableblackdragon]

"Ah well thank god for that. I've never used one before and quite frankly we'd both probably cause a pretty big accident if we did try."

Besides why get up close and personal if she had some good firearms to back up the two of them in the first place? Working smarter was always better then tiring one's self out without putting in nearly as much effort as before.

"In that case how about we wrap around the back of the building? Those people aren't gonna climb too quickly with the whole shocky thing going on. By the time we find a safer way to the front they might've dispersed already. And if they haven't well I can give you a little bit of freedom firepower so that you can get safely inside again."

☆ Sister? Suletta was having a hard time following along with what this woman was saying after all. Maybe it would have been easier to just turn off her brain and go with the flow...? "I'd... rather not use a chainsaw to cut someone open if I can help it..." That was a little too gorey. But this was also a girl that had turned a man into ketchup with Aerial's hand in the past.

The stranger had noticed Calibarn? Well, it was kind of obvious. It was so big that it had caused the ground to shake with every step.

"She'll... be okay. They can't get into her cockpit, and even if they could they wouldn't be able to do anything." Climbing its legs wouldn't be enough. Only Suletta could open the cockpit with her phone. "But I also probably shouldn't stray too far from her."

@mercurywitch / starter call.

★ : it's been quiet lately. miorine finds that she's been in something of a haze - and then the memories had flooded in. there's so much she wants to talk to suletta about, and it feels like there's just not enough time in the world for any of it.

or maybe here there is too much time. it gives her too much time to think by herself, alone with a whirl of emotion and stress and regret and guilt that is overwhelming. what happened to the world they left behind? what happened to everyone else?

when she spots suletta, all she does is rush forward, the only audible sound the clack of her shoes upon the tile floor, and collides with the other girl with a force that would have probably knocked anyone else over.

not suletta, though. miorine keeps her face buried in her chest to hide any stain of wretched emotion from bubbling up to the service. this is her anchor; suletta is a safe place now, she realizes.

'don't question me right now.'

[duelbride]

The television flickers on, an angry teenager in formalwear appears to have just sent off a man, indistinguishable from the man who just introduced himself. She doesn't even shake their hands, nevermind hug them, instead standing there with clear disgust across her features.

The camera zooms in on her face, "That's ten of them, only two more."

This is the set of The Bridette, flowery, strange, and completely surreal. You've tuned in at the moment where the final two limousines pull up. Anticipatory music swells - will our Bridette, notoriously difficult to impress, want to meat our next two contestants...?

The limo pulls up, the music swells, and...

Oh, there's, oh he's running away. A teen in a rumples suit with a rose over his face has exited the wrong side of the car. Oh, he's crawling away.

The screen goes blank for a moment, TECHNICAL ISSUES on the screen.

When we resume, the Bridette is comforting the young man...could this be...love? Or, wait, someone stop his interview-

A...strange approach to our competition.

After our young Bridette comforts the shaking man, sending him inside looking like a lost puppy, the final limo shows up. Is there competition?

Oh, she's singing, it seems, the young woman is stepping out of the car, singing a jingle, and doing a strange dance. An advertisement, maybe...?

Oh! The Bridette is laughing...Our nervous boy has some competition, and some strong words from this competitor.

Stay tuned for an invigorating competition between 12 eligible grooms-to-be. Who will win the heart of our ice-cold Bridette? Stay tuned-

"Shut that camera off! I told you I'm already enga-" The feed cuts there.

The Scientific Method (of Falling in Love)

read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/mYqOpzk by mercurywitch Skyfire had three goals for the 120th Iacon Scientific Summit: Impress the commission with his energon refinement prototype. Represent the Academy with dignity. Absolutely not fall for the brilliant, sharp-tongued, infamously egocentric Starscream, whose pavilion is, naturally, right next to his. Too bad only two of those went as planned. Now they’ve been assigned to collaborate on a joint project. For ten days. In the same lab. With a gala in the middle. Skyfire’s going to need more than scientific optimism to survive this.

"Can touch but not going inside, GOT it." And he's already got both hands on the large being. He exhales in awe, eye looking up, "It's so cool. What is it? It's not a monster or anything like that, huh?" He's never seen a monster this hard at least and he's come across and fought so many of them.

They didn't even come close to being this large either.

"Does it have a name?"

☆ "You can touch it! But um... No, please don't go inside." Had it been the Aerial there would have been no problem with someone climbing inside. But the Calibarn... "If something happened and it accidentally activated there's a high chance you'd get really hurt. Only I can pilot her, and even then..." There were risks for her to do more than just move it around.

"Hey! The ice cream truck handed me two of these by mistake. Would you like the other one? They're chocolate~"

Luz held out a chocolate eclair bar to the other, shaking the packaging gently, as though that might further tempt her into taking it.

"How's everything goin' with your fiancée, anyway? I got married since I last saw you, y'know-- now I guess I'm really equipped with advice if you need any! Heheh!"
