" I'm glad you're okay. " (per this post)

❝ ―WELL I'M NOT! ❞ glad was pretty much the furthest possible word to describe the smaller blonde. Mad is a decent rhyme, but fuming captures it better: from the strained tone of a typically chipper voice to the angry tears which clouded lavender eyes.

❝ I told you, I told you we should get out of here; that it wasn't safe! I wasn't asking you to throw yourself into danger without a second thought, I didn't want you to protect me, I wanted us both to be okay! ❞ And yet, for all her shouting and steaming, there is an almost surreal gentleness in her movements: how her fingers map Hawkeye's collection of wounds, effortlessly seeking, cleaning, and preparing, without pressing anywhere too hard or twisting a shorn muscle.

❝ Maybe you've, like, gotten used to people who buy into that shit, as I'm sure a lot of folks in the military get conditioned into, but I'm not one of them―if you went out there and got yourself killed, for me, I'd never forgive you. or myself. Gods, can't you understand that?

Do you have any idea how much it hurts to see you like this? Or do you just have, like, no concept of the fact that people might care about you? That you matter, just as much? ❞

the profound sadness of riza and easy splitting pre-promised day is not solely in hawkeye's reasoning— believing, (incorrectly), that severing their relationship is the only way to reasonably protect emily and keep her from getting dragged deeper into the heart of the problem— but, also, in easy's acceptance of it.

how little she questions the decision, how little she pries; not because she doesn't care deeply, and not because she isn't hurt... but because, somewhere, deep down, some part of her must have always been ready for it. she doesn't object and try to plead the case of why they should stay together (even though she wants to, so desperately), and she doesn't beg for reasons; she doesn't think she has to.

she just believes that riza growing tired of her— falling out of love with her— was on some level inevitable. after all, it seemed so unbelievable that such a woman would ever love her in the first place.

emily would never try to compel someone to stay out of guilt, and would hate nothing more than to trap someone into a loveless relationship. so she doesn't fight it. she only insists that riza know, despite everything, that she will always have easy, if she needs her.

losing what they had is excruciating, and she processes that sadness alone... but no amount of pain would stop her from supporting riza, and continuing to look out for her.

"That sounds like a great idea. I'll grab my coat in case it's a bit chilly when we leave."

"Alright, I will wait here." He was excited to spend some alone time with Riza when they aren't actually at work. He wanted to enjoy the time he could spend with her, he wanted to treat her and be able to spoil her.

He leaned against the wall and waited patiently for her to get her coat. Times like these were always special to Roy because he would get to see more sides to Riza that he didn't normally get to see when they were at work being professional. This was a time for them to enjoy each others company and just be themselves.

"Does the Lieutenant even know what a vacation is?"

[smokeyknight]

@reigningsniper

"That's quite the accusation, Lieutenant." :|

" and you saying you are innocent is too."

@reigningsniper

"I don't see why ya can't take the night off, ya look pretty wore out."

[regnantlight]

mayhaps and icon for the knight?

Send me “Icon” and I’ll randomly pick an icon with a line of dialogue towards your muse!

"No, we do not need Link," Zelda's eye twitches a bit as the two stop for a bite to eat before the shrine, all previous attempts of entering thwarted, "I'm certain we'll figure this out between the two of us. I'm sure he's quite busy training with his sword, regardless"

a rp icon guide for @reigningsniper

let me know if you get stuck and need help. i had to toggle with the settings a few times to get it right.

File > New...

Check the box that says "create moving illustration"

Change the number to like 300 or something if you're gonna have a lot of icons.

After deleting layers, you paste your own images under the animation folder.

Go to Window > Timeline for it to show the timeline of the animation below.

It will look like this afterwards

And here's the timeline window

For every cel (which is highlighted in red) you will need to specify the layer to the cell. For instance...

Choose a layer

Press OK

it should look like this!

After that

File > Export animation > Image sequence

Hit OK

Viola! You have icons!

@reigningsniper inquired: “ where do you think you’re going? ”

The bodyguard freezes, clinging to the window sill, halfway out and casts a glance over her shoulder. She had only been dropping by to see the Colonel, a meticulously wrapped gift tucked under her arm, something sent to Roy, a custom item from the Emperor himself. But, her half-brother hadn't been there in his office, even after she waited for awhile, so she was on her way out to drop it off at his apartment instead.

However, Lan Fan hadn't foreseen the appearance of Roy's lieutenant, someone she hadn't personally interacted with since the Promised Day, and even that had been brief. There's a flash of a memory for a moment, remembering that Riza Hawkeye had indeed been kind to her back at the safehouse and she was the one that helped both her and Ling escape the city when she took off her own arm. She also doesn't quite remember thanking the woman back then... and now she feels awkward, a long pause as deep brown eyes stare owlishly. "...Back out the way I came in?"

@reigningsniper replied to this post: sorry sir he snuck in

"Roaches do have that talent. So, should I let you take care of him, or do you want me to?"

@reigningsniper replied: I MEAN-

geeeeeeeeeet smooched on.

[cromwellharvests]

every boop is a smooch - on her cheeks, her nose, her lips, her forehead, the crown of her head, her neck, her shoulders, her clavicles, her arms, her hands, her fingertips - everywhere. she misses and loves her wive so much.

ah, well if that's the case— she more than happily endures the onslaught. a bit surprised, maybe; breathless and giggling, with warm hums from deep in her chest. she returns little kisses, here and there, but mostly just holds her beloved, in turn, letting her travel wherever she deems necessary to express her longing, and the gratitude of reunion.

"I missed you, too."

A spoopy Riza for @reigningsniper 🧟‍♀️

[flamesignite]

@reigningsniper

"Elizabeth might, but unfortunately she hasn't been returning your calls."

"I was wondering why I couldn't get an answer from her these past few days."

[galeleads]

@reigningsniper has entered. “ look at me. " 

send   “ look at me. “   for my muse’s reaction to yours grabbing mine by the chin and forcing mine to look at them during a tense / highly emotional moment. 

Aurora doesn't panic. At least, not like this. What had caused her to grasp onto her desk as if her knees were bowing out from underneath her? She can't even remember. All she knows is her throat is tight, and she can't claw her uniform top off faster. Danger. All of her nerves are screaming that her life was about to end.

She has to stop breathing so fast. She can feel her blood seeping. It'll cover the floor-

Hawkeye wasn't one to grab someone like this unless, perhaps, they were truly falling apart. So, the Major is staring into honeysuckle hues as if trying to discover the secret to an iron will. (Does she even want to know?)

"Major, calm yourself."

How could she be so firm, a stronghold that weathers the storms of the seas? Aurora may not understand that, but she certainly knows where in lies the Hawk's Eye is in this dynamic. The office would fall apart without her, a jest they say every day to one another. But no, Hawkeye was a pivotal player, the Queen of this strange game of chess.

Aurora blinks, her face still in Riza's hand. The anxiety and panic slowly melt away as she regains control of her breath. The blood she visualized, it never existed. Everyone is staring at her. How embarrassing that she acts this way. She lifts her chin away from the other's touch, turning away. "Thank you, I just need a moment outside."
