Characters: Dr. Solaris (a Doctor OC) and Theresa Word count: ~700 Warnings: Depressing as hell Author's Notes: This is set in Londinium during a battle between Theresis' forces and Rhodes Island/Self Salvation Corps, who are clearing the way for a direct confrontation to stop The Shard from going off and end this entire conflict once and for all. I gotta do something happy after posting this cause this was a rough one. It should be noted that the Doctor (Dr. Solaris) and Kal'tsit are divorced at this time.

"Hello."

Theresa turned around with a greeting to the angel, eyes looking passed the shotgun barrel leveled to her head.

"…Theresa." "That is my name, yes. Have we met before?" "In another life."

She gave a melancholy chuckle. "Really now?" She tilted her head with a smile. "Would you kindly tell me your name?"

"Solaris. Dr. Solaris." "It's a pleasure to meet you." "…there is no pleasure here, my lady." "…why?"

"We shared a life together once before I took it. I fear I am here to do so once more." Theresa's smile dropped, her head lowering to the palace floor beneath them. "I…see." After a quiet moment, she raised her head and returned her smile in part. "This is it then?"

Solaris' arm lowered as the other raised, her hand coming to take her blindfold off—tears underneath—before tucking it into her coat's pocket. Theresa stepped forward and softly wiped a rolling tear from the angel. "Were you sad when you sent me away the first time?" Solaris could only nod. "I understand…then, might I say something before we part?"

"Of course." "I'm going to miss you." "You would miss someone you do not remember?"

"I feel connected to you, angel, even if I cannot recall exactly who we were. It feels almost…warm to see you again." There was but a moment of hesitation before the gun dropped from her hand and Solaris stepped forward, softly wrapping her arms around the King—and as if by instinct, the embrace was returned. The angel a trembled confessional whisper.

"Your name was Theresa, and you were the greatest companion one could ask for. We spent many a night under the stars of Babel discussing the state of affairs regarding Terra, ourselves, and existence itself. You had a beautiful daughter by the name of Amiya, and an equally great companion in the form of Kal'tsit…"

"Amiya is a Cautus. Brown hair with large rabbit ears, shining eyes much like her ambitions—ones I could see you in. You-you…told her tales every night, legends of the Sarkaz or otherwise, until she fell into deep sleep, to which you would then kiss her forehead and silently slip away. She is 16 now…I-I made you a promise to look after her for the rest of her days, and not a single one goes by without her by my side."

Solaris squeezed her eyes shut, forcing tears to roll down. "Kal'tsit is…a feline. Green and white hair that does not meet her shoulders, ears soft much like a blanket. She…she is aloof as a stone in a river. She led me out of my home to join with you…she…she truly is the-the love of my life. And…" Her words faded as her embrace tightened. The king's tears soaked into the angel.

"How…are they doing?" "Amiya is…I…I-I still see that little girl in her to this day. And Kal'tsit…" Solaris let a half smile onto her face as she chuckled quietly. "…is unchanging to this day." Alongside the angel's, Theresa's smile grew. "Tell them that I miss them dearly…and that I love them both." "You have my word…my dearest friend."

"Please promise me one last thing." "Yes…?" "If we meet again in the next life, do you think…we could be companions again, as we were before?"

Solaris' throat tightened, her words coming in a soft whimper. "…i…in every life, I shall find you. And we may discuss whatever we please…" Theresa lifted her tear stained eyes to look into the angel's, Solaris holding the gaze before closing her eyes and pressing her lips to Theresa's forehead.

"…thank you once more, my dear…"

With a parting embrace Theresa slowly knelt, Solaris taking up her gun and loading a shell in before softly pressing the barrel the king's forehead—a second kiss.

"…any last words, my lady…?" "…I love you."

It took every ounce of strength not to drop the weapon. "…I…love you too…" With a trembling hand she gulped. "May…may you find peace in the next life." "I-I hope…it comes with you, dear angel. And Kal'tsit…and Amiya.

"Goodnight…" "…goodnight."

[risingsouls]

Smirk curled her lips once again, and she reveled in her small victory. How his own smirk disappeared, his taunts dying in his throat before they could reach his tongue. She shut him up, and she had every intent to keep him quiet now that she found a momentary edge, enough of one to begin her own barrage of attacks.

However, hubris had other plans. Her silent boasting tore her thoughts away from the task at hand long enough for the prince to recover and, in the next half instant, pain spit her forehead and erupted through her skull like someone threw and axe into it.

Her hands slipped from his wrists and her vision went white for a second as she stumbled back, teeth grit as she held back any yelp that would give him a moment of satisfaction. Blood trickled down from the gash that no doubt opened on her forehead. Over her eyebrows and catching on her eyelashes. Down the bridge of her long nose and over the tip to drop on her armor.

She couldn't give him time to react. Ignoring her pain, her vision still blurring from the impact and blood, she extended her arms in front of her. Orange ki built in her palms once more and she fired the blast toward him, the twining orange and yellow beam near blinding in their brilliance.

Vegeta's confidence soared as he pressed the attack, each strike aimed to overwhelm his opponent. He watched with satisfaction as Nabooru struggled to keep pace, her defenses faltering under the weight of his onslaught. Yet, in his arrogance, he failed to anticipate her next move.

As Nabooru seized his fists in her hands, Vegeta's cockiness got the better of him. Before he could react, her leg shot upward with blinding speed, connecting solidly with his chin with a force that sent his head reeling backward.

For a moment, Vegeta's world spun, his vision momentarily blurred by the unexpected blow as pain exploded across his jaw. Surprise and anger flashed in his eyes as his head shakily lowered to meet Nabooru's gaze. In that moment of vulnerability, he felt a surge of fury boiling within him, fueled by the humiliation of being caught off guard.

With a roar, Vegeta seized the momentum of Nabooru's grip on his wrists, using it to pull her in closer. His mind clouded with rage as he unleashed a devastating headbutt aimed squarely at Nabooru's forehead.

@fearthekraken

This did NOT make any sense. If they supposed to be here...then why was the Barataria bay at the... wrong side of the map and why was Port Royal that far away?? A long, deep breath to prevent herself unceremoniously slamming her head onto her desk. Said desk was filled with different types of maps, little papers of her own notes, some of them in Hungarian, most of them English and there even was a little Spanish under a sheet- why did she made Spanish notes in the first place?

Her handwriting elegant at first, but as this afternoon went on, the lines grew more harsh, the loops pointed slashes instead of graceful curves. Mátyás was the Vihar's expert navigator, he could always guide them anywhere needed, but Rozália as the Captain felt the obligation to learn this skill too. At first he was present, but when her absolute incapacity showed, she shooed him out as fast as she could.

Hands buried and tugging at her short, unruly hair after unsuccessfully trying to compare two maps- shouldn't they look at least relatively identical?! A book opened where it was explaining the stars, of course already filled with sidenotes; neat, accurate from Mátyás and frustrated conclusions from Rozália.

She was jolted out of her misery when her cabin door was possibly kicked open given by the loud bang and she replied with immediately springing to a standing position.

“NEM MEGMONDTAM, HOGY KOPOGJ BAZDMEG, HACSAK NEM TÁMADA- ” (Haven't I told you to knock fuck you, unless we are under atta-) The word died on her tongue as she realized the intruder's identity.

Shoulders falling with a sigh, her frustration sealed back. “I mean, greetings.” her voice was rough and accented but it held no sarcasm, only a hint of fatigue

Title: Blood Moon Characters: Two OC's (a STAR and KLBR unit) and Elster Word count: ~2k Warnings: Possible spoilers Notes: Is this how you do this? I...have never published anything on this site so I apologize for the messy information. This is some content for two OCs I came up with. I had a lot of fun with the formatting and I think this overall turned out pretty good! If there's interest I have an idea for another part, but otherwise hope you enjoy! Thanks to @/purrluto for translation help!

"FALL BACK! EVERYONE FALL BACK!"

The sound of gun fire and squealed screams filled the air.

"THERE'S TOO MANY OF THEM!"

A STAR scanned the corpses of fallen allies; allies falling.

"IS THERE NO MORE BACK-UP!?"

Her gun began to click.

"GET BEHIND THE DOOR!"

She lowered the empty weapon and her shield.

"EVERYONE! BEHIND THE DOOR, NOW!"

...were they in there? Beyond the infected? Are they alive?

Another STAR grabbed her arm.

"Zero, come on! We have to move!"

A lone STAR huddled in the corner. A lone star in a dark room. The furnishings had been tossed and parts of the floor had been charred black. Blood stains covered certain tables and spots on the tile floor. Yet one table—a table to her left—stood against the wall with a single desk lamp softly flickering. Across the room was a door sloppily barricaded with tables and chairs.

She hugged her knees tighter and put her chin down against them, closing her eyes.

She's a coward for running. But...

The small room echoed with the sharp noise of the door raising open. Her eyes shot open as her head snapped to the source: a slight shadowed figure moving the chairs and tables. She rose to meet her with the corner as her support, backing further into it and raising the revolver to point it at the girl who stopped once she noticed her.

She watched the STAR tremble. She took in her damaged form. The skin on her cheeks were torn off, exposing the barred metal teeth once covered. Multiple lacerations on her body were wrapped in bandages. Her shield—leaned against the wall—sported blood stains and as did the face mask next to it. Her weapon was empty yet she held it ready; her eyes quivered with the rest of her body.

"An LSTR...? Those...those were never deployed here." Elster slowly entered the room farther. "Relax. I won't hurt you" The STAR didn't respond for a moment before she slowly began to lower her weapon. "Sorry..." She sighed. "It's just....I....yeah....sorry...." With that Elster went to the table and placed down her weapon—a shotgun. "What are you doing here? There were never any..." The STAR trailed off. "Do you have a name?"

"I suppose so...I'm STAR-0000, but everyone just calls me Zero. What about you?" Elster shook her head as she turned her focus to the table and the weapon. "Just Elster, then...." Zero mumbled. She'd begun to disassemble the firearm and inspecting the various parts; it was slightly dirty thus prone to dysfunction. "I'm looking for someone—a Gestalt, Alina Seo. Familiar?" Zero shook her head as she once again put her back to the wall and allowed herself to sink to the floor. "No I don't think so. But if she's a Gestalt she'd most likely be in the mines."

"Mm, so I've been told."

A lull of silence came about as Zero watched her clean the various parts of the firearm, before finally she swallowed and spoke up. "Um....hey, did you happen to see any Kolibri units on the way here?" Elster paused and looked down to her as she continued. "I'm....also looking for someone."

| ⯀ |

The metal door slammed shut. "How long will that hold them....?" One STAR asked. "Will that hold at all?" Another added. Their commander turned from the door to them. "We don't know how much time we have and no one's coming to help us. The only way out is through the elevator and we need to reach the upper floors; they're probably flooding up the stairs."

"Captain! It's out of order!" A STAR called to her from the elevator button. The captain pushed passed everyone to see for herself, eventually resorting to attempts at prying the doors open. With no avail whatsoever, she stepped back and swore under her breath. "The stairs are back where we came..." She thought to herself. "Do we have any bullets? Any at all?"

"I'm out." "Me too." "I used everything." "Empty."

Nothing but a chorus of similar words among shuffles.

"God dammit..." The captain began to pace as she thought. This whole time Zero had her eyes trained on the door. At last she'd begun to slowly walk toward it, yet as she neared someone called out. "Hey!" Everyone turned as the STAR ran over and wrapped her arms under Zero's, dragging her away while she'd begun to writhe. "Get off me!" "Are you trying to kill us!?" "I need to go back!" "There's nothing for you back there!"

All eyes fell on her. An acute taste of disappointment filled their gaze as if this was expected—as if this was no surprise. Finally, Zero growled and leaned her head forward. "GET. OFF!" She aggressively buried the back of her head into the front of the STAR's face, breaking her nose and her mask. The pain caused her to release and Zero took off charging toward the door, shield out in front. "GET HER!" one called, but it was too late. She opened the door and slammed into the infected bodies with her shield, pushing them away as the door closed behind her.

| ⯀ |

For a few moments Elster said nothing, both as if pondering the question and whether to tell her.

Tell her?

Yes No

"I have, yes."

Zero's head snapped up to attention. "What?" Elster put down the cleaning rag to fully turn to her. "At the 8th floor in the library. It needs a key to open."

Give her the key?

Yes No

Zero rose to meet her hand, holding out the key card. She gently took it while glancing back and forth between it and Elster without words. "I hope you realize that every hallway is filled with infected." Zero nodded. "I'll....I'll manage." She looked into Elster's eyes. "I don't know how to thank you..."

"You don't have to." Elster took four revolver bullets and set them on the edge of the table near to Zero. "They need you." Zero grabbed the bullets in growing desperation. "Thank you...thank you."

我把他们都杀死了。。。

She pushed in, beset by squeals on all sides. She'd bash and swing, yet more filled the emptied space she created. They tore at her skin. They knocked off her mask and ripped the flesh off her cheeks.

Floor 7. She bashed an infected body to the floor with her shield on her way toward the moving elevators. Suddenly its hand came to grab her ankle, causing her to fall into the one moving downward. She turned as she lowered and saw it hissing while attempting to climb in through the closing gap. A single shot from her gun pierced the space in between the eyes.

Floor 8. She stepped off and rushed for the library door in the immediate room. At last the door opened after fumbling with the card and she immediately began to scan the surroundings until her eyes froze on a similar pair, peaking out from behind a desk. "Zero...?" They whispered. "Nyx...?"

They slowly began to rise out from cover to drink in her battered form; salty in taste with overwhelming metallic tinge. The bandages, the blood, the bio-flesh torn...and when she removed her mask, how ruined her face was....it all hit their eyes at once. Their words gently quivered out at the sight. "Oh god..." "Nyx..." Zero gently whispered back.

我的爱。。。

Nyx walked around the desk and ran to her, tightly throwing their arms around her as she dropped her weapons. "What happened....?" Their voice cracked as they asked. "I did everything I could to find you. I looked everywhere..." "Zero...they're all dead..." Whispers turned to whimpers running down with the tears. "It's so loud out there..." Zero held them tighter fighting not to break.

"We can get out, we can escape..." 我̷̛̛̹̪̥͖̥̤̱̓̽̽̀͛̊̃͘͝们̵̢̡̺͚̮̈̌会̷̨̡̛̙̩̦̺̺̰̯͎͇͐̔̐̾͛̅́̏̀̉͜ͅ吗̶̢̙̒̇̑̐̃̽̿̀̉͜。̶̩̘̘̱͎͖̹̳̗̬̌̇́̕ͅ。̸̨̠̺̞̮̪̒̄̍̓͒͋̿̚͝͝。̷̧̛̭͕̜͙̣̾̃̎？̴̢̣͂̓̋̒̄̋̊̄̚̚

"I'll protect you..." 。。。哪怕我再得去世。。。

。。。我也要保护你。

Nyx winced hearing her thoughts and pressed their face into her, shattering into full blown sobs. They began to sink; Zero joined until they both reduced to their knees. "I'm right here...I'm right here..." Even her comforts began to quiver. "I'll protect you..." Despite her warmth it all felt cold—like a home built on rotten planks to defend against a storm. Nyx tried to breathe in attempt to whisper. "Don't....don't do this to me....you're all I have left..."

Slams and thuds rang out from the closed metal door, which forced their attention. "Please....!" There was growing desperation as Zero began to rise. "Please!!" They watched her take her weaponry. "I..." Zero swallowed before continuing. "I'm gonna try to hold them off...while you make a run for it..." "PLEASE!" Nyx reached for her, but she already headed for the door. "If I don't make it..." "YOU'RE ALL I HAVE!" "...know that I love you...more than anything."

She swiped the card and the door opened to a group of three infected.

Zero put her shield out front. Then closed her eyes.

A group of gunshots vibrated the walls.

Her eyes shot open and all three were down bleeding and motionless. Proceeding the silence she slowly stepped out, minding the bodies, and looked to her left. Nyx peaked from the doorway to observe with her. Smoke left the barrel of Elster's gun as she lowered it. She looked between the two, then into Zero's eyes.

She nodded.

Zero nodded back.

With Zero's returned sentiment she turned and left through the adjacent exit. At her leave, Zero slowly turned to look at Nyx; both with heavy breaths. All they could do was remain in pause.

Shots rang down the elevator shaft.

"Come on come on, OPEN!"

| ▶⎸|

The snow hit sideways against the tarp wrapping Nyx and the shield Zero held. The two could barely see past the white shrouding the horizon and anything more than two meters in front. Least, until the shadow of a large rock stood tall against the sheet. With Nyx's lead they both made for its slight protective overhang.

Now under a form of shelter, Zero set her shield against the rock after using it in attempt to clear a patch of snow. There she seated while Nyx came from behind to press against her back and wrap the tarp around them both. Zero began to look back to speak, yet Nyx immediately interjected with a whisper in her ear.

"Let me take care of you...please...."

She froze at their words and sighed after a moment, turning back forward and taking the tarp's edges to pull them tighter.

"Where will we go?" Zero mumbled. "I don't know...another outpost, maybe..." "Mmn..."

Nyx rested their head on her shoulder, nuzzling closer.

"We'll make it...I promise." Zero gently nodded in response. "...we'll make it..."

The K̵͖̃ȓ̷̳a̷̓͜k̸̼͊ë̶̦n̷̫̋ , the 𝐀𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐫 & the ᦓ𝖙𝖔𝖗𝖒

The Terrific Threesome Trio of the Caribbean

by @fearthekraken , @ofthehighseas & @phoenixduelist

[phoenixduelist]

@fearthekraken random crack starter because inspiration hits at dawn ♡´･ᴗ･`♡

It supposed to be a normal day on the Vihar. The key word, supposed. The Caribbean sun blazed down mercilessly, the air almost completely still and Rozália enjoyed this type of weather as she almost could imagine herself being on land instead. Of course she invited Ed over, the man's presence, energy was quite addictive, plus the crew was absolutely overjoyed at the possibility to learn from him. The serenity was broken when Rozália saw her 6'4 wall of muscle of a first mate dashing past her while shrieking in a voice she has never heard from him. Swords drawn quicker than any gun could have, the instant switch between the previous warm smile to steel cold intent to protect and kill was quite chilling.

Only that...there was no ship, no enemy in sight, but a confused snake slithering on the deck and Márta chasing after it with a cleaver.

The Captain absolutely unamused by the turn of events until a gunshot drowned out the screaming for a brief second.

"NOOO DON'T SHOOT AT THE SHIP YOU ABSOLUTE IDIOT!!!" Came Árpád's agonized shout at Jancsi, who went beet red at the violent reprimand

"But I still got it..." The young marksman mumbled, and indeed the snake was dead, cats of the Vihar already rushing to play with it while Viola tried her best to shoo them away with a "I want its skin!!" exclamation

"What did I miss?" Ferenc sauntered out with an extra sway, eyes freshly, carefully outlined with kohl, the bright cerulean even more vivid against the black. His shirt was fully open, exposing the tanned, muscled chest and those pants were a bit too form fitting.

Rozália stared at him, trying to figure out why is he- oh.

“Oh for the fucks sake!” she groaned, rapidly glancing at Edward than back to Ferenc lounging against the railing like a cat. At least he's not going after a navy officer, or officers. This time.

"Captain...there is a problem in the kitchen." Béla timidly tried to get her attention and when she turned to assess the new need, the cook said "It is full of...ass ropes."

She stared unblinking with whatthefuck written on her face, trying to figure out what in the fresh hell should that possibly mean.

"You know...pók, izé, spider!" Béla struggled, whenever someone -extremely rarely- visited the Vihar as a friend, Rozália saw it as an opportunity for everyone to practice English and also found it rude to converse in a language which the guest doesn't understand

"Ami kijön a pókból, na!" (Which comes out of the spider) he tried again

“You mean spiderweb, like the literal translation of PÓKHÁLÓ TE MEGGÁRGYULT FASZ !” (best translation to that is 'fucking stupid dick!') Rozália yelled with a reddening face, causing the poor cook to quickly make his way downstairs.

She straightened, expression neutral, but just couldn't look at Edward yet, not without the extremely tempting thought to actually jump overboard. Her first mate shivering in a crow's nest, Viola eagerly skinning the snake, Árpád still lecturing Jancsi who was about to cry, Ferenc posing more alluringly than most prostitutes she ever seen. And then, the crown of the day: ass rope. Someone shoot her, as a favor.

Hide your wild, dark haired, sparkly eyed, half insane pirate captains because it seems Rozy has a type-

[astrojoy]

Hey this is a cute concept! Thank you @sunkissedchld !!

1) What got you into the deeper parts of astrology?

A hard childhood tbh! I escaped it with my imagination, seclusion and curiosity. I always did and still do ask "why?" to everything. Why did I act this way? Why did I have to go through this? I needed to know! So when my mom mentioned a 'moon sign' and 'rising' a few years ago, I was so curious and that's where my delving began! Now I use it as escapism from the harsh/mundane side of life and fuel to my curiosity

2) Which sign is in your 5th house? Which planets (if any) are in your 5th house?

Pisces 😏

Mars is in Pisces and will show up as being in the 5th often, like in vedic or other chart calculators- however it's in the 4th for sure!

3) What sign and planets are in your 5th house? When did you start working?

Ehh, so I'm turning 18 next month. Graduating in May- HOWEVER I did my own research and looking into my solar return chart for this year and it's showing I will start a job, sooooo 18!

4) What sign and planets are in your 8th house? How are you when it comes to sharing things? (When you were a kid + now)

Taurus

I was meh on sharing. Didn't like it but I was timid and quiet/couldn't say no so I did it anyways lmao. I don't mind sharing as of now! I can be quite generous tbh! 🍭(also got jupiter in 11th- so it adds to it)

5) What sign is hardest for you to remember how to spell?

I don't have one 👁👁

Uh

Sagittarius used to confuse me when I first started astrology though 💀

6) Which sign do you adore? What is your sun sign?

I adore Taurus 😫

I'm a Libra ☀

7) Which asteroid placement in your chart are you most interested in and why?

Uhhhhhhhh

MY MEMORY IS FLAWED NOOO

OKOK

😏

Asteroid Apollo is at 8° in my 1st

Venus is at 8° in my 1st too (so ontop each other)

They are both conjunct ascendant

Sun is in my 12th conjunct ascendant adding to apollos flare 🥳

I love it because it's a bright planet and it's not too much like the sun. I don't have a big ego, and can be quite insecure with sun in the 12th. So with apollo in my 1st it kinda helps the sun brighten it's area and helps me gain some worth/confidence sometimes in a "not overdoing it" manor 🤯

8) Which planet is your favorite? Why?

NEPTUNE

NEPTUNE

NEPTUNE

Oh my lord

OK OK let me explain

I dislike the planet for it's effects- HOWEVER

Oml I love it's theme and basic feeling of lucidity, 12th house, creativity, mystery etc!

It gives me severe alice in wonderland vibes, fantasy vibes, fairy/elf/unicorn vibes

The place where dreams are reality and reality is a whatever you want it to be 🌈

9) Which avatar Nation did you want to be apart of when you were a kid? Which element is heaviest in your chart?

Air!!

Still do!

Water is heaviest in my chart

I like the way the air Nation handles life, their practices and etc. Also their sanctuary. Everything about it is peaceful and brings nostalgia

10) Do you prefer early morning, day, afternoon or late night? When were you born?

Dusk!

I was born at dawn 👁👁

OK OK OK I TAG EVERYONE TO PLAY THIS IT WAS A GOOD PASS TIME ☀🥳

✨ 𝑨𝑺𝑻𝑹𝑶 𝑸𝑼𝑬𝑺𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵𝑺 𝑻𝑨𝑮 𝑮𝑨𝑴𝑬 ✨

1) what got you into the deeper parts of astrology?

i think i saw someone's natal chart for the first time and thought it was pretty cool. i didn't know how much more complex astrology was until i saw a natal chart, so i went to a site and mapped out my own and became a lot more interested in the intracacies of astrology

2) what sign is in your 5th house? which planets (if any) are in your 5th house?

sagittarius is my 5H sign. my sun, mercury, venus, and pluto are all in that house.

3) what sign and planets are in your 2nd house? when did you start working?

my 2H is in virgo. i have no planets in it. i started working as soon as i turned 16 (that's when it's legal to work where i am)

4) what sign and planets are in your 8th house? how are you when it comes to sharing things? (when you were a kid + now)

pisces is in my 8H. i have no planets in that house. i'm ngl i was (and still kinda am) stingy. but not in a major way; i more so liked to keep things in general to myself, but if someone needed something like a pencil or crayon or something like that, i would share. i think both then and now i did a lot more selfless sharing if that makes sense? if you asked for something, i would whine, but if you didn't ask, i would usually naturally offer to share.

5) what sign is hardest for you to remember how to spell?

taurus took forever to learn lmao

6) which sign do you adore? what is your sun sign?

i love leos and aquariuses <333. my sun sign is sagittarius

7) which asteroid placement in your chart are you most interested in? why?

probably spirit (37452) because it's in leo, which is my 1H, but technically the asteroid is in the 12H. also, spirit is in retrograde in my chart which i think is weird

8) which planet is your favorite? why?

i like pluto and the sun. the sun always reminds me of better days. i love the way heat feels on my skin. the sun is like a vitamin for me. i like pluto because it's small (lmao) and because it's sort of the outcast since NASA made it not a planet :(

9) which avatar nation did you want to be apart of when you were a kid? which element is heaviest in your chart?

i was totally drawn to the fire nation (i have no regrets 💀). fire element is heaviest in my chart.

10) do prefer early morning, day, afternoon, or late night? when were you born?

i prefer early morning/late night. i was born at night.

Edward, absolutely amazed by Rozy's most basic sword trick: “So much better than whippies!”

Rozy, at Calico Jack if he was around:

[phoenixduelist]

Sooo IzzyXRozyXEd threesome when

....thank you for making me spit out my water reading this🤣🤣. & making Rozy go 👁👄👁

Anon probably had a good time reading our threads @ofthehighseas & @fearthekraken 😂

[phoenixduelist]

Gemstone decorated sword? Kraken sword? Rozy is Blackbeard's unofficial sugar mommy

....

“I am not related to Edward.”

What does sugar mean in this context anyways??

“Wasn't aware I have to be related to someone to give them a gift.”

Dawn thoughts: which are a little jumbled because I have a damned migraine. Hope it still makes sense.

Most threads deepen their friendship, her longing; two of them reaching entirely new peaks: her telling him who she is, going against EVERYTHING she has fought, killed for and one where both Rozy and the crew officially accepts Edward as part of their forged family.

He is her friend, probably the only one outside her crew besides the Naga woman who healed her hand. She trusts him, would aid him in battles if needed and she is almost comfortable enough to let him witness her ruins. They share many similar traits, they are both blazing fire, a force of nature and so far they haven't fully clashed with each other but worked together seamlessly.

However...Rozália has yet to realize that she cannot find a true place for him on the Vihar. She respects the legend he created but the co-captain idea with her would never work. Her ship was won by blood, kept by blood; there aren't many things what she can call hers. She hasn't been on the seas for too long, but she figured out what she's doing, she's building her own legend and sooner or later she has to face with how protective she's gotten over it.

Rozália has lost a lot, suffered tremendous physical and mental trauma and as years go by, her bloodthirst only grows stronger. She's torn out, erased from history books and in response she's even more hellbent on leaving a mark, a name, a legacy lasting for centuries.

Of course she cherishes Edward, more than as a friend. But her roaring ambition and pride is something capable of driving a wedge between them. After all, the Devil never sleeps.

Not to mention Rozália fully indents to return to her homeland to kill the crown prince -now king- and be executed at last because she will never be able to find peace. And if she can't return & we enter the Scorched Seas verse... Especially if Kraken Blackbeard is somehow the reason she is ultimately pushed past her remaining humanity
