Cole snickers, “Tell me something I don’t know, love.”

“What are you doing?” She asked giggling looking at him.

Nikolai grins and rubbing her belly, “Gossiping with our baby boy.”

She doesn’t always listen to them and regrets it later, knocking out cold on the couch.

~~~

Miss Mia will never admitted it fully but she’s emotional and has her moments insecurity across the board. In response she is often used humor to cope with any kind of worries she got. But sometimes she brings up the thoughts she has.

“Will be a good mom like mine is? I hope so.”

She knows that Nikolai wonders if he will be a good father. Of course she will find him and talk it out, how they’re both feeling about everything going on.

“We’ll be alright and this kid is gonna have a great village to raise them.”

Sometimes Mia is found on the couch or sitting at her desk doodling thing too, it’s a great mental break to relax. Relive herself of any kind of tension and sometimes she ends up with a good laugh.

Sometimes she is just embarrassed and emotional for no reason and honestly it’s cute

“I cried over a meeting yesterday and an email.” Mia exclaimed, “I never cry during a meeting!”

“What was the meeting about?” Cole asked

“I love you guys! I don’t say it enough.”

“Shut up, you are beautiful and smart and wonderful human being!”

“I know I have been emotional lately and a little annoying, I don’t mean to act that way…so I got you a little something to show my appreciation for you.”

“Did anyone ever tell you that you are amazing and doing your best today? Cause you are.”

“Who wants donuts? I’m buying!”

~~

“You gotta stop baking so much.” Cassie says chuckling, “You gotta eat some healthy food too.”

Mia dressed in a white apron and wearing Mickey Mouse ears while making Goofy themed treats.

“You weren’t complaining last week when I made you Hogwarts theme snacks for your movie night!” She remarked yelling.

Luna gasped, “She got a point!”

Liane eating popcorn with Rick watching it all go down giggling

~~

Mia tends to go a little overboard with things especially when she starts nesting too early in the season

SHE JUST WANTS THE PLACE TO LOOK COMFY AND COZY! That’s all she ask 😌

She tends to be a bit dramatic and silly too, often when she’s in a mood.

“Why are you looking at me like that? Am I forgetting something? Oh god, did I say something wrong? Don’t laugh!”

She will eventually get over it and go back to normal

She gets excited over the littlest things too!

Mia is often a tad bit clumsy and lack the energy to do things around the house at times. She adopts a lazy era 💅🏻

But everyone loves her all the same in the end!

~~~

Random Headcanon Generator Tag Game

Thank you @rumeysawrites for the tag (HERE)

Tagging forward, with no pressure, to; @duckingwriting, @oh-no-another-idea, @faelanvance, @elliottsbigstrongboyarms,

@mr-writes, @pluttskutt, @thatfunkylilfey, and anyone else that wants to play, consider this an open tag <3

How To Play: Use this headcanon generator to make headcanons for your OCs! Then talk about how accurate they are.

Lizzy Hail

"Lizzy drank an almost toxic amount of coffee once"

While this isn't actually true, I could believe it to be true. She is not a morning person. She relies on coffee to move from conscious to awake. I could believe it.

Booker Reed

"Booker is a horrible liar."

Untrue! Booker is actually a really GOOD liar. The fact that he doesn't like to, is probably his saving grace, but Booker could excell the two-talking, double-speak, that is natural within the Fey Court.

Cara Evelyn

"Cara will remind others in the midst of chaos how good they're being."

I can see it. Cara's quite a naturally sweet person. If she thought someone needed to hear it, to get them up and fighting again in the midst of said chaos, the words would come easily to her.

Andric Roche

"Andric can drive."

This one is so simple it feels like a cheat. Yes, Andric can drive. It's seen in the first book, and it's important to the plot in book two as Andric's car is the only way Lizzy and Booker can get to all the places they need to be.

Nameer Khatri

"Nameer has chronic nightmares."

Not something I'd thought about but, again, I can see it. Nameer is a kavian hunter. He's very good at his job. But that does mean he's witnessed, and done, some truly horrendous things. But Nameer's also a genuinely good soul, so I think they could definitely weigh heavy on his mind. Might also explain why he's so often laughing and joking, and taking those small pleasures where he can.

Mia Harris

"Mia does not know what sleep is"

This is an interesting one. It's true. Sort of. Mia does work herself to the bone, but it's not entirely willingly. She has a lot of demands and expectations placed on her from her home life. So she pushes, and she should sleep more than she does. And while her attitude isn't naturally the friendliest, all those sharp edges are only eenhanced by the pressure she's under, and the drastic lack of sleep she operates on.

Connorbar Moore

"If Connorbar was presented with an intergalactic portal, they would enter it without question."

If 'Intergalactic' was 'portal to Arbaon', then the answer is yes. 1000%. Without question or hesitation. Unfortunately for you all reading this, the reasons why are spoiler territory.

Olwen Pryce

"Olwen has fallen asleep at their desk while working in the middle of the night."

Another easy one to end on. Yes. Olwen is Connorbar's right hand, and she takes it very seriously. She's absolutely fallen asleep trying to keep on top of work, and Connor has absolutely ordered her to bed when he's found her.

[rottenpumpkin13]

Okay I have been trying to figure this out in my head, and I thought “hey, this person always has fun ideas/prompts!”

FF7 as mean girls. Who is who?

I just picture Cloud as Kady Herron (aka Lindsay Lohas character).

Apologies if you have no idea who I am talking about

Meet The Plastics

*Cloud, Zack and Kunsel walk into the SOLDIER training facility where everyone else is training*

Kunsel: In the name of all that is holy, will you look at Angeal Hewley's uniform?

*They look over and Angeal is glistening with sweat, his uniform stuck to his body*

Zack: Of course all The Plastics have a training session together.

Cloud: Who are The Plastics?

Kunsel: They're SOLDIER royalty—If the HQ was Midgar Weekly, they would always be on the cover.

Zack: That one there, that's Angeal Hewley.

*Angeal is cheery and talking to a group of starstruck Thirds*

Zack: He is one of the dumbest guys you will ever meet. Kunsel had him as a temporary mentor last year.

Kunsel: He asked me how to spell "orange".

Cloud: .....That sounds like a lie.

*Zack points at Genesis, who's too busy talking on the phone. A stray ball of firaga is launched his way. He shrieks and ducks*

Zack: And that little one? That's Genesis Rhapsodos. He's totally rich because he invented Banora White juice.

Kunsel: Genesis Rhapsodos knows everybody's business. He knows everything about everyone. That's why his red coat is so long. It's full of secrets.

*Sephiroth is teaching a group of Seconds correct footwork*

Zack: And evil takes a human form in Sephiroth.

*Sephiroth is now laughing with the Seconds and high-fiving them*

Zack: Don't be fooled, because he may seem like your typical selfish, back-stabbing, slut-faced ho-bag. But in reality, he is so much more than that.

Cloud: He literally looks so nice?? What??

Kunsel: He's the queen bee. The star. Those other two are just his little workers.

Zack: Sephiroth. How do I even begin to explain Sephiroth?

*Reno and Rude pop out of nowhere*

Reno: Sephiroth is flawless.

Cloud: WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?

Rude: He has two Bahamut summons and a 7ft sword.

*Lazard appears out of nowhere*

Cloud: WOAH

Lazard: I hear his hair's insured for 10 million gil.

*Cissnei also appears*

Cissnei: I hear he does Donbei commercials. In Japan.

*Tseng appears*

Tseng: His favorite movie is Mamma Mia.

*Roche appears*

Roche: One time, he rode with President Shinra on a plane and he told him he was pretty.

*Rufus appears*

Rufus: One time, he punched me in the face.

Cloud:

Rufus: It was awesome.

Astrid Lensherr-Walsh

Name: Astrid Lensherr-Walsh

Age: 18 (varies depending on the rp)

Birthday: December 6th

Parents: Cole Lensherr & Jeremy Walsh

Backstory:

Astrid's life began with a tragic loss, as her biological mother passed away shortly after her birth. Her biological father, devastated and emotionally shattered, tried to care for her but ultimately realized he couldn't provide the stability she needed. He feared that his grief might harm her, leading to the difficult decision to place her up for adoption. However, Astrid didn’t have to wait long for a family—six months later, she was adopted by Cole Lensherr and Jeremy Walsh, who became her true parents in every sense.

From the beginning, Astrid was the bridge between two very different men. Cole, haunted by the abusive parenting of his foster father, was reluctant to become a father himself, afraid of repeating the past. Jeremy, on the other hand, had always dreamed of having a family, and his persistence and love eventually convinced Cole that they could raise Astrid together. Jeremy’s reassurance that Cole’s past experiences taught him how not to act as a parent helped calm his fears. Cole, though uncertain, felt a part of himself deeply wanting the connection and the chance to build something he never had.

When they brought Astrid home, it was an emotional turning point for both of them. Cole, especially, felt an indescribable connection to Astrid, an almost primal need to protect her from all harm. In many ways, Astrid was Cole’s second chance at giving the love and protection he had been denied. He swore to himself that she would never feel the loneliness or pain he endured.

Growing up, Astrid quickly became the center of their world, and her childhood was filled with love from not just her fathers but also a large extended family. Cole, the indulgent parent, would let her get away with almost anything, often spoiling her with gifts and granting her more freedom than Jeremy liked. Jeremy, the more grounded and responsible one, balanced out Cole’s permissiveness by teaching Astrid about accountability, respect, and making the right choices. The lessons were not lost on Cole, either—he often found himself learning right alongside his daughter. It was clear that Astrid was not just shaping her own future but also helping Cole heal from his past.

Astrid’s extended family played a massive role in her life. Her uncles and aunts adored her, often going out of their way to spend time with her and shower her with affection. Liane and Ethan were always buying her extravagant toys and clothes, making her feel like royalty. Mia and Nikolai spent hours watching Disney movies with her, sharing in her love for stories of adventure and magic. Rick’s ability to shift into his wolf form turned playtime into a magical, thrilling experience for her as a child, while Luna would strum her guitar and fill the house with music. Roch and Michelle taught Astrid the art of self-defense, despite her lack of powers. They were adamant that she could still be strong and capable without them, and Astrid took to these lessons with enthusiasm, becoming skilled with various weapons.

Despite being surrounded by love, Astrid’s teenage years brought with them a subtle shift. She began to retreat into herself, spending long hours alone in her room, immersed in books, drawing, and music. The vibrant holidays and family gatherings she had once loved now felt overwhelming, and while she still cared deeply for her family, Astrid needed space to figure herself out. It wasn’t that she stopped loving them—she just felt more comfortable in her own company, a feeling Cole understood well. Having gone through his own struggles with isolation, Cole gave Astrid the freedom to explore her solitude, always reminding her that he was there for her if she needed him. Jeremy, while more anxious about her emotional distance, respected her boundaries and tried to trust that Astrid would come to them when she was ready.

Astrid’s social circle was small. The only people she really talked to outside of her parents were her cousins, Joshua, Darelene, and Margot, Bella, George and Georgia, and Riley and Dylan. Though she was quiet and reserved, Astrid had a soft spot for babysitting her younger cousins, finding joy in their innocent energy and curiosity. Despite her more introspective nature, she loved spending time with them, feeling protective and responsible, much like her father Cole had felt toward her.

Astrid’s quiet teenage rebellion wasn’t one of defiance, but rather introspection. She wasn’t lashing out or pushing boundaries—she was simply trying to find her own identity in a large, vibrant family. There were moments when she felt like she didn’t quite fit, especially without powers, but her family’s love and support kept her grounded, even when she felt like pulling away.

Personality:

Astrid is a mix of quiet introspection and gentle strength, shaped by both her experiences and the influences of her parents, Cole and Jeremy. On the surface, she comes off as reserved and introverted, preferring solitude over socializing. She’s the type of person who enjoys spending long hours with a book or sketchpad, getting lost in her thoughts and her art. This quietness isn't due to shyness or insecurity—Astrid knows who she is, but she finds peace in her own company. She values her alone time as a way to recharge and reflect, especially given the large, energetic family she’s a part of.

In many ways, Astrid is emotionally mature beyond her years. From a young age, she understood that love can come in many forms, whether it was the protective, slightly overindulgent love from Cole or the steady, guiding hand of Jeremy. She’s always had a deep sense of empathy, often picking up on the emotions of those around her and responding with quiet support. Astrid doesn’t need to speak loudly or offer grand gestures to show she cares—her presence alone is often enough for her family and friends to feel understood. This makes her a great listener and someone people feel comfortable confiding in, even if she isn’t quick to open up about her own feelings.

Astrid’s sense of independence is strong. As much as she loves her family, she values having her own space and identity. Growing up without powers in a family of powerful figures has given her a deep determination to prove herself. She doesn’t rely on any supernatural abilities to define her; instead, she’s become highly skilled in practical areas like self-defense, strategy, and problem-solving. Her aunts Roch and Michelle taught her how to handle herself in combat situations, and while she isn’t aggressive by nature, Astrid is capable and confident when it comes to defending herself or her loved ones.

Despite her calm exterior, Astrid has a streak of stubbornness, especially when it comes to her autonomy. She doesn’t like being pushed into things or told what to do, preferring to figure things out on her own. This can sometimes lead to quiet rebellion, where she withdraws rather than confronts issues head-on. It’s not that she’s afraid of conflict—she just prefers to handle things on her own terms and in her own time. Astrid doesn’t like to feel pressured, and this can sometimes cause tension between her and her family, especially with Jeremy, who worries more about her emotional well-being than Cole does.

Underneath her reserved nature, there’s a subtle but sharp wit. Astrid may not be the most talkative person in the room, but when she does speak, her words often carry weight. She has a dry sense of humor, and while she may not be as outwardly sarcastic as her father Cole, she shares his ability to make pointed observations or drop a quick, clever remark when the moment calls for it.

Her relationships with others are meaningful, even if she only keeps a small circle of close friends and family. She deeply values loyalty and trust, and while it might take time for her to truly open up to someone, once she does, she’s fiercely protective of them. Her close bond with her cousins is a testament to this—despite her introverted tendencies, she finds comfort in her family’s unconditional love and enjoys spending time with the younger kids, guiding them the way she was guided by her aunts and uncles.

Astrid is also a dreamer, often getting lost in her imagination. Her artistic side is an important outlet for her, allowing her to express feelings she doesn’t always put into words. Whether it’s through drawing, music, or writing, Astrid channels her emotions into creativity, giving her a quiet but powerful way to communicate. She’s the type of person who will express her love or struggles through a sketch she leaves on her father’s desk, rather than through a long conversation.

Though she prefers the sidelines, Astrid is strong in her own way, with a quiet resilience that runs deep. She may not be a loud presence, but she’s steady, reliable, and emotionally intelligent—qualities that make her the anchor of her family, even if she doesn't realize it.

Fun Facts:

1. Collector of Vintage Books: Astrid has a secret love for collecting vintage books. She enjoys spending hours in secondhand bookstores, looking for rare editions or beautifully bound novels. Her bookshelf is full of these treasures, and each one has a special meaning to her.

2. Incredibly Skilled at Drawing: Though she keeps her art mostly to herself, Astrid is an incredibly talented artist. She loves sketching realistic portraits and fantasy creatures, often creating detailed character designs or scenes from her imagination. She uses drawing to process her emotions.

3. Loves Astronomy: Astrid has always been fascinated by the stars and the universe. She has a telescope by her window and spends late nights stargazing. Astronomy gives her a sense of peace and wonder, and she’s surprisingly knowledgeable about constellations and space-related facts.

4. Big Animal Lover: She adores animals, and despite being quiet, animals seem to gravitate toward her. Cole and Jeremy once joked about getting a family dog, but Astrid has been campaigning for a cat since she was a little girl. She would name the cat "Nebula" or "Cosmos."

5. Not a Morning Person: Astrid is definitely a night owl. She feels more alive and creative after dark and loves the quiet of nighttime. In the mornings, she’s usually groggy and not very talkative until she’s had her breakfast or coffee.

6. Fear of Heights: Despite growing up around people with extraordinary abilities, Astrid has a notable fear of heights. She tries to avoid high places or being too far off the ground, even though she knows she’s always safe with her family around.

7. Fan of Old-School Rock Music: Astrid has an old soul when it comes to music, and she loves listening to bands like Fleetwood Mac, Queen, and The Rolling Stones. She often draws while blasting these classics in her room.

8. Secretly Bakes When She’s Stressed: Astrid doesn’t talk much about it, but she’s actually pretty good at baking. When she’s feeling anxious or overwhelmed, she’ll retreat to the kitchen and make cookies, brownies, or her favorite chocolate cake.

9. Her Room is a Little Sanctuary: Astrid’s room is decorated in a minimalist, cozy style with fairy lights, soft blankets, and lots of plants. It’s her sanctuary where she feels the most comfortable, and she’s pretty picky about who she lets inside.

Likes:

1. Reading: Astrid could spend all day curled up with a good book, especially fantasy novels or psychological thrillers. She also enjoys reading poetry and classic literature.

2. Art Supplies: She’s a sucker for high-quality art supplies, especially sketchpads and charcoal pencils. She takes her drawing hobby seriously and loves experimenting with different mediums.

3. Quiet Time: As an introvert, Astrid enjoys having quiet time to herself. Whether it’s reading, drawing, or just listening to music, she values her alone time to recharge.

4. Nighttime Walks: She loves walking under the stars or sitting outside at night, enjoying the stillness and cool air. Nighttime is her favorite time of day to reflect and unwind.

5. Animals: Especially cats. She’s gentle and caring around animals and has always wanted a pet, particularly a cat. Astrid feels a special bond with animals and enjoys their quiet companionship.

6. Old Movies & Music: She loves watching old black-and-white films and listening to classic rock music. There’s something comforting to her about the timelessness of old media.

7. Astronomy: She’s fascinated by space and loves stargazing, learning about constellations, and reading about astronomy. It gives her a sense of perspective and peace.

8. Rainy Days: Rainy days are perfect for her, as they give her an excuse to stay inside with a blanket, a book, or her sketchpad. The sound of rain helps her relax.

9. Handwritten Letters: Astrid loves the old-fashioned sentiment of handwritten letters. She keeps a collection of letters from family members and occasionally writes her own as a personal way of expressing her thoughts.

10. Coffee Shops: Astrid enjoys the calm and cozy atmosphere of coffee shops, where she can sit with a warm drink and just people-watch, sketch, or read.

Dislikes:

1. Loud, Crowded Places: Astrid isn’t a fan of big crowds or noisy environments, like parties or festivals. They overwhelm her, and she feels out of place in overly social situations.

2. Small Talk: She finds small talk awkward and unnecessary, preferring meaningful conversations or silence over forced interactions. She’s the type to avoid social gatherings just to dodge small talk.

3. Heights: Due to her fear of heights, Astrid avoids situations where she feels far from the ground. Amusement park rides, tall buildings, and even some balconies make her uncomfortable.

4. Being Pushed Into Decisions: Astrid likes taking her time to think things through and doesn’t appreciate being rushed or pressured into making decisions. She values her autonomy and independence.

5. Superficial Friendships: She doesn’t waste time on friendships that lack depth. Astrid is loyal and values strong connections, so she dislikes people who are only interested in surface-level relationships or popularity.

6. Being the Center of Attention: Astrid prefers to blend into the background rather than being in the spotlight. She finds attention overwhelming and prefers when her actions or work speak for themselves.

7. Conflict: While she’s capable of standing up for herself, Astrid dislikes unnecessary conflict or drama. She’d rather keep the peace or quietly walk away from situations that are escalating.

8. Early Mornings: Waking up early is a struggle for her. She’s much more energetic and creative at night, and mornings just aren’t her thing.

9. Injustice or Bullying: While quiet, Astrid can’t stand when people are treated unfairly or bullied. She’s the type to step in quietly but firmly to stop unfair treatment, even if it’s not directed at her.

10. Overly Sweet Food: While she enjoys baking, she doesn’t like overly sugary treats. She prefers more balanced flavors or savory snacks.

[raccontidialiantis]

Sei qui con me! Ancora non ci credo

Sei venuta con me, finalmente. Hai capito chi comanda, tra noi: comandano... i nostri cuori di persone mature totalmente impazzite. Hai realizzato che la voglia di farti amare da me e provare finalmente e dopo tanti anni, delle emozioni molto forti è più grande del timore di essere maltrattata. Perché sai ciò che mi piace: te l’avevo confessato già molti anni fa. E tu da allora m’hai sempre tenuto cortesemente fuori dalla tua cerchia. Che stupido a confidarmi con te. M’hai proprio allontanato. Quanto ci ho sofferto.

Pur se a distanza, siamo comunque rimasti amici, per carità. Però io non vado in chiesa a pregare i santi, figurati se mi metto a supplicare una donna. Ho l’agenda piena di numeri di telefono di femmine che non vedono l’ora che le contatti. E le "tratti." Tu non hai idea di quante mogli, fidanzate, vedove o semplicemente single dalla vita familiare e sociale irreprensibile adorano essere sottomesse e mi scrivono per questo! 

Mi mandano delle note vocali roche, accorate o dei messaggi pieni di passione: da essi traspare evidente lo struggimento classico di chi sente che è proprio ora di rifarlo. Magari mi scrivono mentre sono al ricevimento dei professori della figlia o intanto che fanno spesa col coniuge all’Ipermarket!

Proprio la settimana scorsa ho trattato nuovamente dopo un anno una mia vecchia compagna di scuola, felicemente sposata con un mio amico, madre di una ragazza di quindici anni e di due gemelli di un anno. Dopo il parto ha avuto altro a cui pensare, ovviamente. Ma adesso ha ritrovato la forma, la forza fisica e quindi vuole riprendere il nostro rapporto molto discreto e per entrambi molto appagante.

Poi c’è - incredibile questa - la madre ancora piacente e molto giovanile di un’amica di mia moglie. Con lei ho rapporti regolari. E s’incazza, se non la... “prendo a frustate” ogni tanto! L’ho conosciuta alla festa di compleanno della figlia, tenutosi un paio d’anni fa nella sala da ricevimento di un agriturismo in campagna qui vicino. Dapprima ci siamo divertiti molto a ballare insieme, io e lei. Mentre ballavamo e raccontavamo barzellette, ridendo e chiacchierando, capivo di avere di fronte un vulcano di passione. 

Scherzando scherzando, mentre ballavamo la toccavo, la palpavo e percepivo che lei ci stava. Diceva: “ma che fai: tocchi?” Però nei lenti mi si stringeva. Troppo, per non essere intenzionale. Infine, non ero io che la portavo: era lei che mi allontanava dalla zona marito. E quando eravamo ben lontani, potevo baciarle il collo. E lei allora gemeva e scopriva ancora di più l’incavo. Aveva una maglia col collo a barchetta molto ampio, che sembrava fatta apposta per farsi baciare collo e spalle. Sentivo sprigionarsi da lei l'odore di una puttana a lungo repressa e desiderosa di cazzo quanto prima.

In breve, facendo finta di chiacchierare allegramente, con la scusa di prendere un po’ d’aria, siamo usciti fuori dalla sala. Nell’ampio giardino, sotto un albero e ben nascosti anche grazie alle macchine parcheggiate, ho potuto metterle una mano nella fica e masturbarla a lungo, mentre le succhiavo il seno. Mugolava, la troia: era in estasi. 

Io le ho detto che se continuava a lasciarmi fare si sarebbe messa in una situazione pericolosa, perché a me piace sottomettere e far soffrire le donne. Per tutta risposta, sempre non staccando i suoi occhi dai miei, si è chinata e mi ha fatto un “pompino immobile”, cioè restando ferma con il mio uccello in bocca fino a quando non ho avuto il mio orgasmo. 

Senza fare una piega, ha inghiottito tutto. S’è pulita la bocca, s’è alzata e a voce m’ha dato il suo numero di telefono. M’ha detto: “caro, memorizza e chiamami appena puoi. Presto, per favore. Sono curiosa: voglio proprio vedere cosa mi farai.”  Poi siamo rientrati separatamente, per non dare nell’occhio. E lei ha abbracciato sorridente e contenta i nipotini che la stavano cercando e le correvano incontro. Poi ha baciato il marito sulla guancia con trasporto e gli si è messa sottobraccio stretta stretta, ravviandogli i capelli. 

Tornando a noi, si: lo vedevo nei tuoi occhi che eri un po’ preoccupata. T’ho parlato a lungo. Appena sei arrivata qui t’ho detto: “ma dai: anche io ho bisogno di dolcezza, di essere coccolato e baciato. Non sono  mica un mostro. Rilassati. Metti un po’ di musica dalla tv. Telefona a tuo marito e rassicuralo; oppure parla con mamma. Stai serena e non preoccuparti di nulla. Tra un po’, quando sarai comoda, ti toglierai le mutandine e me le darai. Adoro annusare l’odore intimo delle mie donne.  Oh: brava! Ecco: le annuso, mi beo del tuo aroma come antipasto e si comincia...”

“Io e te qui in una camera d’albergo. Da soli! Non ci posso credere. Per farti vedere che non hai a che fare con un mostro e che comunque tu sei una persona molto particolare per me, perché sai bene che ti vengo dietro dal liceo, da quando comunque mi davi il due di picche ogni volta che ci provavo, adesso avrai un trattamento che non riservo mai ad altre. Praticamente lo faccio solo a mia moglie. Si, quanto mi piacevi: ero proprio cotto di te, come un pollastro. Insistevo, ma tu imbarazzata arrossivi e ogni volta mi respingevi con garbo. Anche all’università.”

“Fino a che non ho capito che amavi veramente tuo marito e ho smesso di disturbarti. Poi t’ho persa di vista. Per circa vent’anni, fino al nostro incontro fortuito del mese scorso. E quindi che bello l’intensificarsi dei nostri messaggi segreti: ti scioglievi ogni giorno di più. Che emozione ieri l’altro, sentire per telefono quel tuo imbarazzato, sommesso ‘si’ di risposta alla mia richiesta di vederci un pomeriggio. Il tuo mutato atteggiamento nei miei confronti è un dono del cielo inaspettato.”

“Dio, come mi batteva il cuore, quando t’ho rivista per la prima volta, lo scorso mese. Sembrava che ci fossimo lasciati il giorno prima. E quanto ti voglio, anche adesso. Stavolta ci ho provato e intuivo che finalmente m’avresti detto di si. Non appena siamo arrivati, per metterti a tuo completo agio, ti ho baciata. T’ho ordinato di leccare le mie dita. Ora ti lecco io sotto tutta. Dall’osso sacro all’ombelico. Puro godimento. Estasi dei sensi. Per entrambi.”

Ooooh.... eccoci qui. Prima parte finita. Contenta? Lo rifaremo presto, lo so. Hai avuto il trattamento della Regina. Volevo proprio gustare i tuoi sapori più segreti e farti impazzire di gioia. Dovevi arrivare a non capire più nulla, grazie al sapiente lavoro della mia lingua. Adesso per favore dimmi la verità: tuo marito la passera non te l’ha mai leccata, vero? E dai, non abbassare lo sguardo: quanto mi piaci, quando arrossisci! Mi sembra di essere tornati al liceo! 

Ho un presentimento: probabilmente questa che sta iniziando tra noi non sarà una storiella qualsiasi. E tu ovviamente non sei una qualunque, una preda. Da sempre possiedi un mio pezzo di cuore. In segreto. Non lo sa nessuno. Adesso però ti farò provare anche cosa significa essere veramente desiderata, voluta e infine dominata da un uomo che ti ama da sempre, per cui tu sei stata una vera ossessione. Ti inculo, bella mia. 

Intanto che ti sfondo e godo nell’allargarti l’ano, ti dico di non smettere mai di essere così affascinante, bella, dolce, discreta. Qualora tuo marito ti trattasse male, chiamami. A qualsiasi ora. Di qualsiasi giorno o notte. Io avrò sempre la mia spalla libera per te. E ti darò tutto l’amore che ho accumulato in oltre vent’anni di desiderio inconfessato per la tua bocca, per la tua silhouette adorata. E per il tuo seno meraviglioso. 

Oh: adesso divertiamoci con qualcosa di particolare. Dai, sii allegra e partecipe. Senti quant’è bello provare il dolore misto all’eccitazione sessuale, il gusto agrodolce dell’alternare un rapporto sessuale a dei “trattamenti” erotici molto forti. Questa è una forma di piacere diverso; non comune e sudato, ben guadagnato, soffrendo sotto i colpi della cinghia. Non è certo il solito rapporto coniugale frettoloso e insoddisfacente, vero?

Il collare adesso devi indossarlo come pegno del tuo amore per me. Continuerò per un’oretta almeno a usare il tuo corpo, bella mia: ci devi stare. Ti monterò e ti farò godere come deve godere una vera signora. Come deve provare piacere e sensazioni bellissime una donna libera e aperta che decida di provare a uscire dal solito, monotono cerchio delle abitudini matrimoniali. A espandere i suoi orizzonti e osare l’indicibile. Sai che puoi farlo perché sei con me. Perché sai anche che io ti strapazzo come una prostituta, però ti amo proprio come si deve amare una donna.

I have finally caved and made this thing… if this goes south, imma get revenge on Rei, Lu, Mia, Roch, and literally everyone who pestered me about it

[phedre-delunay]

La mia essenza.

La puoi toccare nel calore

della mia pelle arrossata

dalla passione nel mio sguardo

che brilla di eccitazione

nella mia mano

che lenta vorrebbe sfiorarti

nelle parole roche

nelle parole arrabbiate

nella sensazione di lontananza

nella voce suadente ed emozionata

nelle risate fanciullesche

nella timidezza improvvisa

nella dolcezza del cuore

nel sorriso per ogni tuo respiro

Ecco la mia essenza è lì

Purgatory. 

Neither living nor death, but a fitful state of limbo where the souls lost to the aether would never come to rest. A wasteland of ice and fire combined where all feeling came to die. Twas in this state which one SOLDIER Third Class had found himself lingering in the aftermath of a supposed unknown tragedy which had claimed the lives of two of his most fondest. 

An announcement delivered to him out of the blue as though one was receiving his roster for the following week. 

Devastated was an understatement; the grief, the sorrow, the white-hot unadulterated rage of being kept in the dark. The not knowing was the worst. MIA they’d said initially, suddenly a status swiftly evolved into Roche’s worst fear. He could not abide it, would not allow himself to believe it, even amidst the chaos and destruction of the work shop after the fact. The act of partaking in that wreckage had done little to quell the rage, to make it all go away.

He needed to know. Who were these ShinRa dogs to keep him from the truth, to deny the mission which had claimed both his friend and his mentor had ever happened at all? 

It was as though their very existence had simply been erased from every archive within this godsforsaken tower. 

And so Roche had prepared to dive into the deep, beneath the plate, the undercities even, into the seedy writhing masses of debauchery and corruption just for clarity, for that fleeting taste of the truth which eluded him still. It was here which he’d found power much more satisfying than money. The gift of knowledge, knowledge that others would pay dearly for, to justify the bloodshed to silence threats, to bury it deep and forget it existed. 

And thus purgatory had begun its growth to mean something else entirely.

Too dangerous to set loose, too valuable to destroy. 

That was until he found himself snared in the taught chains of yet another employer, commissioned then to watch closely a gaggle of dysfunctional rebels; an unlikely team if ever Roche had the opportunity to see one. And he’d watched for a while on the outskirts of the infamous watering hole nestled in the corrugated paradise of Sector 7’s slums.

Seventh Heaven. 

The Third was not thrilled to find himself living beneath the pressure of another's thumb; ShinRa’s hold was already proving difficult to shake off, but vast was the price one would have to pay to unveil the truth he had sought so desperately for so many years he had since lost count. 

And it was there he’d spied him, glimpses of a man with his shock of ebony hair, the tell tale glow of mako in his eye. Surely… it couldn’t be… could it? Such a  pity this man was accompanied by a hound, a creature he just knew would draw too much attention were he to to simply accost the man in the streets. 

Many days had it taken Roche to get close to that bar, unnoticed, hiding in plain sight, conjuring plans for his eventual invasion - so easy was it to mask the pomp and glamour when the craving to have and to keep became the latest hyper fixation. And it was there, in what looked to be an infirmary in the bowls of AVALANCHE’s base camp - entered through an unlocked latch window - that he’d lie in wait. 

Not in the shadows, no, but by the door, waiting for the man to enter mutt and all, the moment he finally made his move. 

The brunette hadn’t noticed him initially, despite the deep rumbling growls of his pet noticing the foreign presence almost immediately, this SOLDIER standing beside the door and it wasn’t until Roche’s target turned to see where this threat stood that the biker lunged forward, hands twisting into the cloth of the other’s shirt, the gravity of how weight having him crash into the gurney behind him. 

Probably more commotion than Roche had really intended, the dog snapping and growling at his heel as he glowered down at this man, face twisted in a pained anguished he’d held in since the moment he’d been reported missing. The scar, the hair, the eyes, that voice!! There really was a lot to be said about those bursts of emotional passion. 

It was him!! For that there was so very little doubt. 

“WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN, ZACK FAIR?!”

[ask-missparker]

Hello old friend. 🍎 ONCE UPON A TIME AU 👑

Cinderella!Roch & Snow!Mia short blurb

The birds were chirping but the sky was gloomy, clouds brushed against each other looking around for space.

The last couple of days felt very lonely to say the least. However she tried to make the best of it and keep herself busy around town, helping Ethan and the others with restoring the place. They had a few mishaps lately with Alexander, people breaking into stores, fights among the folks who lived there and questionable behavior from the former team members.

Villains trying to resurface their past selfishness and corruption to the heroes here too.

With the recent curse lifted, she couldn’t blame them. It felt a bitter taste in her mouth. Half of their friends—family members were gone in the Enchanted Forest, leaving them with uncertainty over whether they will survive or not. But she tried to have hope, even if her brother-in-law Alexander wasn’t helpful, just trying to rain on her parade every-time she tried to visit him for answer of any kind.

Now she sat here in her apartment, scrolling through Netflix while snacking on a handful of grapes. She thought about requesting keys to her husband’s rather large home but she didn’t have any idea on how to get that information, besides she enjoyed the smaller space.

While in the middle of scrolling through the page, as a result of questionable content appeared on her screen, a knock appeared on her door. She raised an eyebrow not expecting anyone to visit her today, opening the door to assume it being Cassandra or someone with a similar interest in her query today. But instead she was greeted by a smile unlike no other and bright red curls that lit up a flame in anyone’s path.

“What? Not happy to see me?” Said the redhead who reached out to snap her back to reality.

“Huh? What, no! Rochelle honey come in!” She replied chuckling, letting her enter the living quarters of her home.

“I would’ve arranged to be here sooner but the weather was very bad this morning and the kids wanted to play in the backyard before visiting their uncle.”

“I’m just surprised that you know my address..”

“Oh I asked about! Cassie gave it to me, well no, technically Melissa overheard our conversation and knew exactly where you would be today, since you’re usually at home on Saturday afternoons even while you were cursed—sorry I’m rambling! I just needed a break from the kids and work, and all of town’s folk. When this is over we’re going to The Rabbit Hole!”

“The rabbit hole..? Is that reference to Wonderland?”

———

Rochelle chuckled at her old friend’s response. Usually she was the one who was native and innocent for the most part when it came to the world around her, having lived as a servant girl then became a princess overnight. Yes she knew Mia was rather slow and a bit clueless at times, but this was new to her. Mia was always the first person with her head pointed in the right direction, depending on the circumstances at hand, so seeing her like this made her smile.

Then again Rochelle has lived in this world longer than she has, her friend was in a coma for 16 years at the hospital, and she wondered around places a lot more over the years, so it made complete sense that she would seem this way. Recent events had made it a little difficult to find a moment of peace, hell even Rochelle was worried and confused about their current situation, but she tried to look in the more positive direction.

After a moment the redhead spoke again, “Yes, The Rabbit Hole! It’s a very good bar in the town, it’s nearby Grandpa’s place, they serve drinks and food. I will definitely have to take you there soon.”

“I don’t know if a bar would be my cup of tea..oh god, I sound like my Cassie..and you, no offense.” Mia replied, pouring them both two glasses of lemonade from the fridge.

“None taken, I get it, I wasn’t into the whole bar scene until Jeremy, Melissa and I went one night years back. Best decision ever made. They served me the most delicious Apple martini! And then—”

Rochelle paused sipping her glass of lemonade realizing the last part of her sentence, she messed up knowing she doesn’t have a good enough past with apples. Looking at Mia’s face she expected a disapproving look but instead she was met with a smirked expression.

Mia laughed and nodded, “You’re good don’t worry! I am learning my lesson from that experience.”

“Oh thank heavens I thought I said something wrong!” Explained the redhead who laughed, “So what’s going on here?”

“Not much. Just trying to take it easy..”

“I know you miss them, we all do. I could only imagine how you’re feeling right now, with our friends gone..I could go nuts knowing my children and spouse were gone. I don’t even know how you’re so calm right now! How are you so calm?”

“I’m keeping myself busy actually. Like yesterday, I went to the stables with Cole, we had a small picnic and entertained the horses.”

“What about Alexander? He’s uh, something else..no offense!”

“None taken, I just tolerate him.”

———

Amelia remembers how two days ago, she arrived at Alexander’s home as requested by her boss at the hospital to check on his bandages. She refused to do so but Rose, a fellow nurse, kept her company until further notice that day. Alexander was rather difficult for her standard procedure, as he wasn’t pleased with having two nurses at his home and exclaiming how he can take care of himself. But one bark and bite from Rose brought him down a peg to be looked at by her and Mia.

She remembered how Alexander kept giving snarky remarks, odd expressions and engaging in some sort of banter with both nurses. However due to the man having his cuffs tightened on his wrist and being injured previously, there was a sense of vulnerability and humor to his presence that day.

Yes, Amelia disliked the man and was rather reluctant about her orders to make sure he was doing fine, but a small part of her almost smiled seeing him this way. She knew if it was left to Rose, she would’ve made the check harsh enough for Alexander, resulting in them staying longer in the man’s home.

——

Both women took towards the couch in the middle of the room, grabbing the remote control to see what’s on TV for the day as they tried to relax. They spent their time chatting and watching television together, until a certain cartoon appeared on the screen.

Well more like a movie.

Disney’s Cinderella.

To say Rochelle’s jaw dropped was an understatement as she watched what was supposed to be her counterpart on screen. Amelia couldn’t contain her laughter at her friends expression and exclaiming certain moments across the film. Yes Rochelle knew about the story, especially from her children and Cole’s views on her experiences, and how everyone has their own interpretations of things, but this wasn’t what she expected.

Amelia watched on television as it showed a young blonde woman dressed in a sliver almost blue dress talking in her fairy godmother. She remembered the tale from her friends, hell she was there during the ball, so she knew this wasn’t how the story went.

It was settled in her head for a movie night for everyone one of theses days to react and comment on theses versions of their stories.

“Ok first off, i ain’t some blonde bimbo who cried the whole night, I mean I did cry but still, and secondly i didn’t have some old ass fairy godmother to help me! I had a magic business man dressed in freaking leather pants who sassed me half the time!” Rochelle said with such enthusiasm and sass in her tone, “Cole did not look like that!”

Amelia was leaning into her seat, resting her elbow against the armrest of the couch, “Mhmmm yeah I remember. And he was wearing his engagement ring too.”

“Exactly! Wait when was he engaged?!”

“Jeremy proposed to him a few weeks before Michelle’s ball, if I’m correct. He showed me that ring like it was a gift from the gods.”

“Wait what?! Ohhh damn slay, I guess.”

“I’m sorry if you just say ‘slay’?”

“Gen Z slang I think? I found the kids using it. Don’t judge me!”

Instead Mia just laughed.

~~~~

I know this is short! But it’s what I came up with right now. I will definitely continue this discussion soon

Anyways let me know what u guys think 💙❤️

#4~ Productos recomendados de skincare.

Hoy os traigo una serie de productos de skincare que a mi personalmente me han funcionado genial.

Que a mi me hayan ido bien no quiere decir que a todo el mundo le vaya igual de bien, siempre hay que tener en cuenta nuestro tipo y estado de la piel. Lo mejor sería que un especialista os recomendara una rutina específica.

En mi caso tengo la piel mixta y sensible. Si vuestra piel es el mismo caso a la mia podéis probar estos productos que no a todos probablemente os gustarán, pero seguro que hay personas que le sirve mucho este listado de productos.

Hay mucha gente que tiene la piel mixta y lo que hacen es aplicar diferentes productos para cada zona específica (un producto para la zona grasa que sea para controlar los brillos y otro producto más hidratante para las zonas más secas de nuestro rostro).

Pero en mi caso tengo varios productos diferentes y los voy combinando dependiendo de como tenga la piel ese día, usaría uno u otro.

*TODOS LOS PRODUCTOS QUE OS APARECEN A CONTINUACIÓN LOS HE PROBADO DURANTE MESES Y TENGO LA SEGURIDAD DE SU FUNCIONALIDAD.*

❥LIMPIADOR❥

𐙚Effaclar gel moussant de La Roche Posay: es mi favorito está indicado para pieles grasas, sensibles y con acné. Es acuoso pero cuando lo aplicas se vuelve espuma. Lo que más me gusta de este limpiador es que apesar de ser para pieles grasas no te deja la piel reseca. Y controla bastante bien los granitos y puntos negros.

𐙚Manuka tree purifying de Ziaja: está indicado para pieles mixtas y grasas, es astringente y reduce los poros dilatados.

Está bastante bien para el precio tan bajo que tiene.

𐙚Antioxidation acai berry de Ziaja: está indicado para pieles sensibles, apagadas y cansadas. Lleva ácido hialuronico, es antienvejecimiento, controla el acné y mejora la apariencia de las cicatrices.

Al igual que todo lo de esta marca súper recomendable para el precio que tienen sus productos.

Find the Vibe Tag

Rules: find an excerpt from your WIP that fits a vibe.

My vibe is "I think I will cause problems on purpose"

Thank you for the tag @talesofsorrowandofruin <3

As soon as I saw this 'vibe' I knw exactly the scene I needed to share. I planned to do something from Darkling, but there's just this one moment in Changeling that's absolutly perfect.

"It's Mimi right?" Booker asked, turning around fully in his seat, and Lizzy felt her heart raise to settle in her throat anxiously.

She recognised his tone. The one that said he was irritated, but was refusing to show it. The overly friendly voice Booker liked to use when he wanted someone to let their guard down long enough for him to get revenge.

"Booker..." she warned quietly, but he ignored her.

"It's Mia."

"Ah, of course. My apologies. That privilege was only bestowed on Hunter Roche. I remember now."

"Booker," Lizzy hissed, trying to split her attention between Andric, who was shifting uncomfortably, and Mia, whose eyes were flashing with anger, her lips pressed tight, but Booker still didn't stop.

"So far this morning, Blake Allbrook and Kelsey Garrick have both approached us about sitting with you. May I suggest if you are that desperate for more friends, that you be a little more approachable?" he taunted. "Perhaps be a touch more open to people using your adorable little nickname?"

Tagging forward to; @minamoroz @faelanvance @ashen-crest @ettawritesnstudies @sleepyowlwrites and anyone else who see's this and wants to play (tag me so I see it!)

Your vibes are "I should not have said that".

How would a pool part with everyone go?

The Pool Party From Hell

• They rent out the rooftop terrace for Kunsel's birthday pool party. (Kunsel can barely swim btw. This is red flag #1)

• I would say red flag #2 is Zack and Cloud dragging in a whole Kalua pork while chanting "Pork par-tay!" but it's actually the birthday cake Roche brought in that reads "Happy birthday Knussel"

• Lazard shows up to wish Kunsel happy birthday but stays around to chaperone after he overhears Cissnei ask Angeal when the live ducks are coming in.

• Oh yeah, speaking of Cissnei, her and a bunch of other Turks showed up too (Cissnei is besties with Kunsel and the others tagged along).

• That being said, Reno showing up with a water gun called "The pulverizer 5000" then shooting a geyser at Cloud, who's thrown into the pool, is red flag #3.

• Angeal: WHO'S PLAYLIST IS THIS? THEY'VE PLAYED WAP ON LOOP FOR 20 MINUTES NOW

Kunsel: Excuuuse me for wanting to listen to real music on my birthday.

• Genesis is the designated drinks mixer. He's working the bar in nothing but board shorts while chatting up the pretty girls who come by.

• The prettiest girl (Sephiroth) comes by, plops himself at the bar and puts his head down. (He's also wearing nothing but board shorts and the girls' eyes are immediately on him

Sephiroth: I'm not having fun.

Genesis: Can't see how. If I were you I'd be canon-balling into the pool, playing soccer with Zack or ...... *he squints at something in the distance* what's Cloud doing?

Sephiroth: Reno blasted him with the pulverizer so he's making him eat it.

Genesis: Or helping Cloud assault Reno! See? Endless fun to be had.

Sephiroth: It's hard for me to let loose.

Genesis (💡): I've got just the thing that'll help you!

• Genesis immediately turns around and starts concocting a bright red drink.

Sephiroth: I'm not sure alcohol will help me. My body has a hard time reacting to alcohol the way it's supposed to.

Genesis: Don't worry! That won't happen with this drink.

• He slides the neon red shot toward Sephiroth.

Sephiroth: What is this?

Genesis: Don't worry about it. Just drink it.

Sephiroth: ???????

Genesis: *groan* Just drink it!

• Sephiroth apprehensively downs the shot in one go.

Genesis: So? Do you feel any different?

Sephiroth: Not really.

Genesis: Don't worry. It'll hit.

Sephiroth: Yes, but how long will it take to—(⊙‸⊙)

Genesis: Did it hit?

Sephiroth: (⊙‸⊙)

Genesis: It hit.

• Meanwhile the live ducks arrived and are swimming around the pool while half the people play Marco Polo and the other half dance.

• Reno got ahold of the aux cord and is now playing his lewd music on full blast while Lazard and Tseng stand at the bottom of the stage screaming "TURN IT OFF"

• Reno's response? "What? I can't hear you the music is too loud!" *Said while cranking it up louder*

• Zack tried to pet a duck, angered it, and now Elena and Angeal are trying to pull it off his face. Cloud is actively filming and laughing.

• Shotgun and Balto (turk) start pouring gallons of soap into the pool to make it foam up.

• Red flag #4 is Roche rolling in a jet ski on some wheels in hopes to use it in the pool.

• He never gets to do that though.

• Hurricane Sephiroth rips Rude's glasses from his face, puts them on, then canon-balls into the water with Genesis. Both are clearly beyond drunk when they start sparring right there in the pool.

• All hell breaks loose after that.

• One thing I will mention is that Genesis and hyper-drunk-Sephiroth end up with their arms around each other screaming the lyrics to Mamma Mia (Abba).

Au Lotus Pourpre - Epilogue

Ma chère Mia,

 J’espère tout d’abord que ce message te trouvera sous les meilleurs astres…

- Voilà, ça c’était pour la formule de politesse extravag honorable que tu apprécies tant.

- Désolé pour la rature, Arch’ vient de me menacer d’un cours complet sur l’origine et la nécessité de l’étiquette littéraire si je ne modifiais pas mon commentaire.

Nous avons enfin dépassé la Ceinture de Roches Noires, celle-là même où se trouvent les plages éponymes. Je suis toujours aussi impressionnée de constater la diversité des couleurs de ce monde ; tu t’étais bien gardée de me dire qu’elles étaient aussi incroyables ! En guise de punition, tu pourras m’entendre parler de ces merveilles pendant des heures à notre retour.

L’expédition diplomatique en direction de l’Île-aux-Perles avancent moins vite que prévu, faute d’une troupe peu habituée à traverser les Champs de Nacre, mais nous ne devrions pas manquer la cérémonie d’intronisation du nouveau Duc pour autant – je te ramènerai des graines d’opales, promis ! En attendant, ces quelques détours nous permettent de visiter les environs : de quoi prendre un peu d’avance sur notre « voyage en solitaires », donc je ne me plains pas ~ Même si Arch’ insiste sur le fait que celui-ci sera beaucoup plus long et grandiose.

- note : bien que l’idée même du mariage ne soit clairement pas prévue pour tout de suite, depuis mon jeu de mot désastreux sur le fait que c’était lui, « ma lune de miel », il rougit à chaque fois que j’emploie ce terme ! Cela me fait toujours autant rire  ~

À ce propos, j’ai bien suivi tes recommandations depuis ta dernière lettre et comme d’habitude, Mia, tu avais vu juste (ne lève pas les yeux au ciel trop fort en lisant ces lignes ma belle, tu risques de te donner des cernes !). Moi qui avais peur d’être allée un peu trop loin… J’ai donc finalement pu trouver un forgeron digne de ce nom à Cerkilion, il y a environ une semaine de cela : avec un pourboire supplémentaire et quelques tours de charme, il a accepté d’effectuer le travail en priorité (étant donné que nous ne restions pas plus de quelques jours sur place, il ne pouvait pas en être autrement). Cet artisan de génie est parvenu à transformer les quelques pièces d’argent - celles-là même que j’avais demandé en paiement de ma « dernière entrevue » - en deux magnifiques boucles assorties ! Quand je les ai montrées à Archelaus, je craignais sincèrement qu’il ne s’offusque du geste, voire qu’il ne prenne peur (je crois que sa précédente relation l’affecte encore) … Tu me connais : j’ai pris toutes les précautions du monde, lui ai expliqué que c’était une sorte de symbole, que nous pourrions les porter tous les deux sans signifier une quelconque « acquisition » de l’un par l’autre (fondre les pièces et le métal qui nous ont tous les deux attachés à nos rôles pendant tant d’années, bla-bla-bla… qui aurait cru que son côté romantique déteindrait sur moi à ce point, hé ?), qu’il ne s’agissait en rien d’une obligation, qu’il pouvait me dire « non » et y revenir plus tard s’il le souhaitait... Mais quelle n’a été ma surprise quand il m’a prise dans ses bras pour me faire virevolter comme l’un de ces gosses avant de- (enfin tu sais quoi ; note à part, il faudra que tu m’expliques un jour comment tu peux trouver « gênant » le fait que nous nous embrassions au regard de ta profession !). Il m’a tout de suite demandé si je pouvais lui mettre - une histoire qu’il me faudra te raconter en détails - et nous avons passé la soirée à imaginer ensemble les réactions quand nous rentrerons à l’Arbre-Cité ~ une soirée magnifique en sommes.

 Toutefois, je crois qu’il veut mettre un peu de distance avec la capitale, et, très honnêtement, je ne lui en veux pas… Je suis même très fière de la réponse qu’il a renvoyée à son père l’autre jour (je crois bien que même toi, tu n’aurais pas été si… vindicative disons !). Apparemment, Lord Yuei n’a pas vraiment apprécié le fait que son fils aîné ne congédie son épouse « alors qu’ils filaient le parfait amour » (ha !), d’autant plus pour s’enfuir après coup avec une « courtisane de bas étage » dans une autre de ses « missions diplomatiques sans queue ni tête ». En la recevant, j’ai vu Arch’ devenir livide… J’étais prête à ce que nous fassions demi-tour, afin de s’expliquer en bonne et due forme avec sa famille - n’importe quoi qui aurait pu lui éviter de tels ennuis. Cependant, il m’a copieusement rassurée sur le fait que « jamais plus il ne souhaitait faire la même erreur », avant de s’enfermer un après-midi entier dans notre chambre à l’auberge. Des malédictions étouffées que je pouvais discerner (quelque chose à voir avec le fait que Monsieur-père devrait apprendre à s’occuper de Madame-mère avant les situations romantiques de ses fils), et de la lettre plutôt encourageante qu’il a reçue de son frère cadet en retour, il semblerait que nous puissions nous reposer pour un temps…

 Je vais malheureusement devoir arrêter ma lettre ici – Arch’ m’a fait savoir qu’il aimerait emprunter quelques lignes de celle-ci pour t’adresser un mot. Dès que nous trouverons de quoi nous ravitailler en encre et parchemin dans la prochaine ville, je te tiendrai au courant de l’avancée de notre périple.

 Porte-toi bien !

Ton amie

Ligi

 PS : J’espère que tu continues bien à travailler les « Us et Coutumes des Hautes Branches » en vue de l’examen des Pourpres à venir ! Il est à parier qu’avec la place vacante, la vieille cherchera à recruter parmi les bleues - passe-lui le bonjour de ma part quand tu en auras l’occasion !

 ----------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------

  À Madame Mia du Lotus Pourpre,

 En premier lieu, restez assurée que votre conversation avec votre « sœur de cœur », comme vous l’aviez si bien formulé lors de notre départ, demeurera strictement confidentielle, comme je l’ai promis à ma chère et tendre (dont le regard moqueur actuel ne me dérange pas le moins du monde). J’ai également parfaitement confiance dans le fait qu’en cas de non-respect de notre accord, vous seriez capable d’incendiez mon domaine tout entier, de me retrouver à l’autre bout du monde, ce pour « m’en faire chèrement payer le prix ». Cette occasion viendrait-elle néanmoins à se présenter, n’hésitez pas à en profiter pour présenter à nouveau mes plus plates excuses à Fen Verracci (qu’il me semble que vous connaissez déjà) – je ne pensais pas que s’occuper de mes très estimés parents en mon absence constituerai une tâche aussi pénible…

 �� Malgré nos différences passées, j’espère que nous aurons l’opportunité de partager une tasse de thé à notre retour ; je suis certain que vous apprécierez de visiter notre nouvelle résidence dans les Plateaux Nord, tout comme je serai enchanté d’entendre de votre part les nombreux souvenirs de jeunesse que vous avez pu ensemble par-

 Mes excuses, il semblerait que certaines personnes n’apprécient pas que l’on « cherche à extorquer des histoires embarrassantes de [leur] meilleure amie ».

- Je tâcherai de faire ma demande plus discrètement la prochaine fois… ou du moins à une distance respectable de polochons et autres projectiles volants….

           Quoi qu’il en soit, je ferai de mon mieux pour veiller au bonheur de Ligi, je vous le promets. Il y aura très certainement des moments difficiles à traverser, des compromis à faire, mais dans un univers aussi vaste que le nôtre, je ne crois pas que j’aurai à nouveau la chance de rencontrer une âme aussi brillante que la sienne… aussi complémentaire de la mienne.

           Encore merci d’avoir pu prendre soin d’elle jusqu’à aujourd’hui…

Avec mes plus sincères salutations,

Respectueusement,

 Archelaus Yuei
