spotify wrapped has arrived! / @yunhuntress

"Am I...still alive?" her voice came out croaky. her throat felt like it was caked in dust. she groaned as she pulled herself upright, wincing a little as various body parts ached. a sharp pain shot through her shoulder and she sucked on her teeth at the feeling. the memory of what had happened came back in flashes. some sort of rampage, something to do with a rather powerful fiend running amok through the city. a cough racked her before she got a chance to delve any deeper into her memories.

both her and Fang had tried to prevent the fiend from doing any more damage than it already had. there had been dust everywhere as it had smashed into buildings, chasing after anyone it could find. her last memory had been of the sound of shots before had blacked out. she had changed into her gunner dressphere in an attempt to draw the attention away from a group of people the fiend had been trying to attack. she had figured guns were a better way to get it's attention rather than swinging a sword at it's ankles. it had done the job, the beast had rounded on her, but it had meant she'd gotten a nasty swipe round the face in the process. in all the chaos that had been happening, she wasn't sure if it had been her pulling the trigger that had finally killed the beast or Fang. she might've regained consciousness at one point to the sound of fighting, but had promptly blacked out again.

"Is it dead? Who was it that pulled the trigger that killed it? You or I?"

[starvingtongue]

when warm fingers took hold of her gloved one, Paine didn't resist. warmth soaked through to her very skin, even more so when lips were pressed against it. when the moment passed, she didn't release her hand from her companion's. it had been long enough since she had felt this comfortable to have her hand held by someone, let alone have the back of her hand kissed. her crimson eyes finally had some warmth in them too.

a soft chuckle left her lips. "No, I suppose they wouldn't be." even a moss covered one wouldn't be as comfortable. eyes softened as she gazed down at the other woman. who knew Paine would ever her so relaxed. when they had first met, Fang clearly had a barrier up. if that was to protect herself or others, Paine wasn't sure, maybe it was both, but it was nice to it lowered, knowing she was probably one of the handful to get the pleasure.

leaning head head back, she stretched her legs as best she could. she wondered how long they could spend like this before they would have to head back. the sun would clearly be staying with them for the next few hours. it was refreshing to have things be this peaceful for once. no more fighting, no squabbling between factions, no problems for her to have to figure out because someone needed an third party. it was an escape from reality almost.

"Do you think," she paused, eyes following a cloud slowly floating above them. it seemed like such a stupid thing to ask, selfish almost. "There could be more days like this, @yunhuntress? This peaceful?" Spira had only seen such peace for a little over 2 years, and even that had been interruped by Vegnagun and Shuyin. Fang had told her a little of the world she came from, and the dangers that had been fraught within it. it almost seemed...unreal, that they should get to experience this sort of peace.

The huntress closed her vibrant eyes to soak in the moment of quiet and peace. Something that was so far and few between what she knew for so long. War burned its way into her bones and infused into her very marrow. Peace was like a gentle wave of water soaking down to soothe and douse out the flames of war. A calmness that felt foreign but quite welcomed to the tired woman.

Hearing her light humor, Fang chuckled gently only to move a hand of hers to shift to lightly take hold of one of Paine's. She brought it to her to kiss the back of it tenderly. Perhaps she was foolish in the moment but it felt like the right move to her to just soak in more on the warrior she leaned upon. "A rock would not be as comforting to me or as soothing." she whispered gently for only Paine to hear.

Fang had nothing to hide even through the years of being alone. Those she had lost to time lived on in ways etched in her skin from the scars, the memories. People she had trusted, those who had betrayed her too, all deep into the flesh with each fighting movement. For now, she chooses to be her more natural self when at proper rest. Tender, soft, and open for a chance.

red eyes still eyed the man warily. "Lets hope it doesn't need to happen again." he backed down easily enough, which meant he wouldn't be too much trouble going forward. she had been around enough men to have plenty of nicknames thrown her way. ninty-nine percent of them made her skin crawl and always sounded too condesending for their own good. a threat or two helped calm them down. most of the time anyway.

though his style certainly hinted at him having a bit more of a backbone, she wasn't going to start pushing it further. once was more than enough to get her point across and there was no need to go around causing trouble. no, she'd had enough of that with the Gullwings, let alone somewhere completely new.

"Thanks, I guess." she replied with a shrug. "I wouldn't say it's anything that impressive, just a name." she really wasn't sure what to make of this guy. his fashion sense screamed of someone who would give her more trouble than he was worth, but his demeanour was more of someone who just spoke his mind. the latter was something she could appreciate, if it turned out to be trouble. "Majima I can work with. It's better than 'guy with an eyepatch'." though if she introduced him to anyone that knew Gippal, they might be in trouble.

"So, what's there to do round here, @zankokukami?" her tongue was still getting used to his name. "This doesn't exactly look like a place that's full of excitement." or maybe it was and Paine wasn't picking up on the right signals.

this was a feisty one. throwing threats around, it would seem she didn't like his usage of the word babe around her ; majima gave that name to nearly every woman he met. there was no harm actually meant by it, but he knew some women didn't like it too much ; especially coming from a man they didn't know.

❝ woah, woah, calm down there, i'll not call ya babe if ya don't want me to, no need to throw threats 'round ... ❞

paine, uh ? that was a pretty edgy name, but kind of suiting with what she just did. most wouldn't ever dream of threatening someone like majima, the eye patch & the fashion style, all key looks of an overly flashy yakuza. the fashion style just shown off how much money he had, & his chest tattoos, the eye patch shown off that he had a history around violence ; most didn't wear them just for show.

❝ paine ? sounds like a badass name if ya ask me. i'm majima, so we know each other by name now, eh ? i don't care what ya wanna call me though. ❞

"something really weird just happened at the train station ." There's a thoughtful pause as he considers the circumstances, trying to make sense of it illogically instead of normal. "People are vanishing into some secret channel, and I can sense some odd power at the hand of it. Wanna check it out."

@valorxdrive

oh, this was intriguing. she'd always loved hearing stories about weird things happening as a child. she'd had the bravery to investigate them too, whereas the other kids usually huddled together at a distance. it usually ended up being something stupid and never anything interesting. that still hadn't stopped her from occasionally seeking these things out. ghost stories, haunted places, myths, and spooky goings on were all things that were right up her alley.

and this was no exception.

"Always." he had certainly come to the right person for this. her eyes almost glowed with excitement. her ethusiasm over this remineded her of Yuna and Rikku's over the awesome sphere a while ago. maybe this is what they felt instead of irritation. "Come on, it sounds like it's worth looking into." she walked (almost too fast) past the boy and in the direction of what she hoped was the train station. she wasn't completely familiar with the area yet, but she remembered the train station being in the general area she was going in.

part of her still doubted that there was much to this story. like with many others, there was bound to be a grain of truth in there somewhere. something must of set it off, made it start spinning into a bigger and bigger story until the truth was nothing more then a speck. people embellished, people misheard, or misremembered. there was always something that spun it a little too far to take the inital tale as truth.

it was mention of the sense of power eminating from that that really caught Paine's attention. that was what struck her as odd about it. whether it was true or not, whether people did go missing, the pair would find out sooner or later. at the lack of footsteps behind her, she called over her shoulder. "Are you coming or what?"

[starvingtongue]

more tag drops!

[starvingtongue]

well that made things easier. where this was, Paine would surely find out later, at least they had some capable warriors amongst them if this woman's words were anything to go back. the last thing she wanted to hear was that she was one of the more experienced fights amongst the bunch. being around a group fo inexperience fighters felt like a nightmare, let along fighting amongst them.

an eyebrow quirked upwards. "I think I can handle that." patrolling didn't seem like a hard task for her first day on the job. "Are these Psicom people dangerous?" Paine felt like it was a fair question. the woman and her group didn't seem like dangerous people, but maybe whoever Psicom were, was. well, it was obivous there was something dangerous going on, considering NORA were armed with weapons in an attempt to defend, and possibly kill.

"Paine." she offered in return, with a slight nod for emphasis. a smirk almost pushed it's way onto her face, though there was a definite twinkle in her eye at the comment. of course there were fewer women amongst them. even amongst the Crimson Squad candidates, she was one of a handful of women. it didn't surprise her that it was the same everywhere else. "I take it not many women want to pick up a sword and fight here too?"

@lebrcau

cont. from here | @starvingtongue

    ❝ Sounds like you'll fit in perfectly. ❞ Lebreau placed a hand on her hip, smiling. The fact that she already had a weapon of her own was good enough for the gunner. Meant that she has experience fighting. While the normal folk was quite eager to pick up a gun and fight, they had no experience and therefore their forces were still too weak. She just hoped Gadot could train some of them properly.

    ❝ That's all we need right now, really. ❞ The top priority was to protect the children and the weak. It was dire that they make it out alive. Lebreau will not stand for any more innocent lives to be lost to the Purge. ❝ My job today is to ensure that no Psicom is patrolling nearby. Think you can help me with securing the area? ❞

    ❝ The name's Lebreau, by the way. It's nice to have another girl on the team. ❞

[starvingtongue]

it was almost a shame she didn't have a book on hand. it felt like the right moment to start reading. as if out of a sappy romance sphere or something. though, while in the moment, she could begrudge why people tended to do such things in situations like this. the mood seemed to call for it.

all the while, there was a tingle of affection the huntress growing in the warrior's chest. it was something she had only experienced a couple of times, something she could count on one hand. something that she usually tried to avoid, especially in recent years. the last person she felt this level of affection for had shot her. and while that situation had eventually be solved, it had left her scarred emotionally as well as physically. it had left her wary of trusting others. wary of growing that close to someone, even on a platonic level, in case she was left to pick up the borken mess of her own wellbeing again.

the feeling made her nervous.

there was a very strong urge to pull away, despite the relaxed nature the other part of her was feeling. Fang would most likely push for an answer, she was direct about things like this, and Paine would most likely shut down and push her away. so, she resisted the urge as best she could, tried to keep the relaxed feeling she'd been milling in so far.

"I don't think you have much choice. It seems I'm the only one around for miles." it was a way to keep her nerves from running wild. a little bit of wry humour on her part. "Unless you want to rest your head on a rock, of course. But I don't think that's as comfortable." Not unless they found some comfortable looking moss for her to put underneath her head.

@starvingtongue continued from: [x]

The huntress continued to lean finding herself closing her eyes in pure comfort against Paine. It wasn't so strange granted they had gotten rather close as friends since their journeys together quite a while ago. Fang was fully relaxed in the shade away from the sun at the moment. It was rare for her to have her guards down in such a fashion but she had no fear of Paine turning around and hurting her.

Keeping green eyes closed for a moment, she smiled hearing her companion. It was nice to hear such things from the other woman as well as how soft her voice sounded at the moment. Maybe they were both able to just be themselves for a change without the need to put up warrior facades all the time.

"I'm glad for that cause I don't want anyone else to lean on but you, Paine."

[starvingtongue]

well that was comforting. glancing around the area, Paine gave a little shrug. "I know bits and pieces," it had a vague sense of familiarity, she hadn't travelled that much in this area, but she could recognise a couple of landmarks if she saw them again. "I would recognise a handful of things if I saw them again, but I'm in the same boat as you are. It's not an area I've explored much." what a pair they made. if either of them got lost on this little escapade, they were in good hands. it was a good thing both of them were used to wandering, if neither of them had any experience, they'd be screwed. thankfully though, Fang was a good companion to have on such a trip. both of them knew how to survive out in the wilderness and could defend each other in a pinch. Paine was grateful, in that way, to have Fang around.

she let out a soft, almost embarrassed laugh, her gaze dipping to the foor as a small pink hue danced on her cheeks at the compliment. Fang spoke the truth though; broadening ones horizons was never a bad thing. it was something Paine had strived to do for years. there were obviously topics that bored her, sphere break came to mind, but she wasn't against learning the history of an area or finding out what a simple walk could do. "I can tell you what I know, but I'm afraid it won't be much." she wondered how much it compared to Fang's knowledge on the area.

this time, Paine let out an amused snort and an equally amused roll of the eyes. "Fang, please, you're embarrassing me." she gave the huntress a playful push of the elbow. "Come on, lets see what I can teach you."

her mood finally shifted into something that could only be described as light and airy. she was almost baffled to think it had been years since she last felt some semblance of this. she ignored the teeny tiny part of her brain that tried to remind her that 'this couldn't last forever' and 'when was the last time she felt like this?'. all the tiny things that would try and ruin the mood she was in.

it probably wasn't the greatest idea to have two warriors so intent on seeing that no harm came to the other. she couldn't deny the fact that they would both get hurt, perhaps too much, so that the other could be safe from harm. Paine hoped this didn't mean that they'd get themselves seriously injured in such a chase.

whatever the case, she was glad to hear that Fang agreed to her idea. it was just as well, her ass was starting to go numb and as much as she enjoyed having her arms wrapped around Fang, she needed to move.

"Come on then." with that, she delicately unwrapped herself from her companion and stood. she rolled her shoulders and took a few steps to stretch her legs out. "How much do you know about the area, anyhow?" she asked, offering a hand to the brunette to help her up.

[starvingtongue]

the kiss almost caught her off-guard, but once it clicked what was happening, she let herself sink into her. the tightness in her shoulders relaxed, and a gloved hand reached out to caress the huntress' cheek. Fang was a lot more affectionate than Paine was used to, though she didn't have much to compare it to. even by her standards, this was a lot. it didn't stop her from pulling away though. the kiss was tenderly reciprocated.

if Fang hadn't pulled back, Paine wasn't sure she would have. her thumb softly glided over the woman's cheek. a soft huff left her and an even softer smile spread itself over her lips. it almost turned into a grin as Fang nudged her nose against her. "The feeling's mutual. I would kick some serious ass to keep you alive." Paine nudged her own noses against the woman's in return. she knew both of them would walk through hell to keep the other safe. and right now, it was the closest thing she could say that resembled how much she cared for the other. expressing herself hadn't changed all that much.

she was loathe to pull back even more, but she did. her hand dropped to her lap. "Want to take a walk? I think my back's going to rebel if I lean against this thing any longer."

the nuzzle sent a tingle up her neck and down her side. Fang's prescence continued to remind her just how long it had been since she'd been this close to anyone. a tinge of sadness wormed its way inside of her, and if Fang looked at her long enough, it might've shown on her face too. fingertips grazed against Fang's hand. if it wasn't going to disturb Fang, she would've taken her gloves off so that she could get a better feel for Fang's hands. but this would do.

Fang's words reminded her of Spira. the people there deserved the peace that now reigned. before that, they had only had a smattering of peace every few hundred years. she had admired the summoners, past and present, that had been willing to scarifice their lives to bring whatever calm there could. part of Paine had wondered if the Calms would've been worth it, the shorter they had got. now that Yuna had defeated Sin for good, she could see that it was. she had only briefly known Braska's calm, and that had lasted a little under a year, but she could barely remember it. there had been snippets that she could, moments where she was unburdened with the thought that Sin could be around the corner to decimate them within seconds. but there had also been other more pressing issues on her mind at that point in her life too.

in any case, she was glad of the peace now, in whatever form it took. if it meant she could have more of these moments, then it must be worth it. "Even this sense of peace and calm," she waved her free hand at the view before them. "Compared to how Spira was two years ago, it feels like a dream. As if it shouldn't be real." she took a deep breath, and truly took in the view in front of her. her gaze shifted back down to the woman's just in time to meet her eyes.

a small, soft smile pushed at her lips. "Likewise. And if not, we'll raise hell to keep it."

"No, I suppose they wouldn't be." even a moss covered one wouldn't be as comfortable. eyes softened as she gazed down at the other woman. who knew Paine would ever her so relaxed. when they had first met, Fang clearly had a barrier up. if that was to protect herself or others, Paine wasn't sure, maybe it was both, but it was nice to it lowered, knowing she was probably one of the handful to get the pleasure.

"Do you think," she paused, eyes following a cloud slowly floating above them. it seemed like such a stupid thing to ask, selfish almost. "There could be more days like this, @yunhuntress? This peaceful?" Spira had only seen such peace for a little over 2 years, and even that had been interruped by Vegnagun and Shuyin. Fang had told her a little of the world she came from, and the dangers that had been fraught within it. it almost seemed...unreal, that they should get to experience this sort of peace.

[starvingtongue]

there was an unfamiliarity to this guy and Paine couldn't quite put her finger on what it was. that shouldn't have been her main concern, yet she still prickled at being called babe. eyebrows furrowed and lips pulled down into a frown. pet names had always put her on edge, regardless of who they were from. she'd once almost fought a guy who had called her something similar in a bar once. she'd only backed off because someone had pulled her out of the situation. Paine liked to think her temper had gotten better since, but the prickly sensation was still there. she was never much for compliments about her appearance either. she'd been bullied for it for far too long as a child and maybe that's why she'd stuck to her guns with wearing whatever she felt like.

"Thanks." it was awkwardly said, while her arms folded over the midrift as a form of defense. "But, if you call me babe again, you'll find it a lot harder to see what else is round here." the snark felt like a better defense to this guy than her fists. he wasn't a fiend and she was pretty sure she'd be charged with assualt if she tried to beat him up. "I prefer the name Paine if you call me anything at all."

the alternative fashion style was always a favourite of majima's. this chick actually rocked it, she had a very unique hairstyle for a woman too, dyed silver, & styled quite short, her clothes did risk showing off more than they should, majima really wondered how she kept all on without it all falling off ... must have been something to do with all the belts. either way, it was a nice look, he wasn't above giving girls he found on his ventures out on the streets random compliments.

"Not as much as I'd like." in truth, she hadn't explored much of anything. she'd be too perplexed, too confused, on where she had ended up that she hadn't felt like having a proper look around. the winding streets of wherever this was were similar to that of Bevelle, or maybe even sections of Luca, if one wasn't looking too closely. it felt quite easy to get lost, to wind up somewhere you weren't supposed to.

"Red-light district...?" it wasn't much of a question, much less one that was purposefully directed towards majima. crimson eyes scanned the surrounding area, her torso turning in conjuncture. "That sounds overwhelming." especially compared to Spira's standards. it's citizens were only just starting to invent and discover new ways of passing the time now that Sin was gone. everyone had been so focused on trying to stay alive that they'd never developed new ways of entertaining themselves. now that the overarching threat was gone, they needed to find something other than blitzball to pass the time. sphere break had helped fill the void for a little bit, so had sphere hunting in some ways, but it still felt like a large portion of the population were floundering to find ways to entertain themselves.

"Like what?" eyes finally went to rest back on the man before her. she needed an example here, something to compare it to. "What do you do for fun around here?" her head nodded upwards, a gesture pointed towards the man, as she spoke. she nearly added a comment about him talking to strangers for fun, but decided against it. best not to poke the bear that had decided to introduce her to her surroundings. she might as well find out as much as she could from someone so inclined to inform her.

red eyes still eyed the man warily. "Lets hope it doesn't need to happen again." he backed down easily enough, which meant he wouldn't be too much trouble going forward. she had been around enough men to have plenty of nicknames thrown her way. ninty-nine percent of them made her skin crawl and always sounded too condesending for their own good. a threat or two helped calm them down. most of the time anyway.

though his style certainly hinted at him having a bit more of a backbone, she wasn't going to start pushing it further. once was more than enough to get her point across and there was no need to go around causing trouble. no, she'd had enough of that with the Gullwings, let alone somewhere completely new.

"Thanks, I guess." she replied with a shrug. "I wouldn't say it's anything that impressive, just a name." she really wasn't sure what to make of this guy. his fashion sense screamed of someone who would give her more trouble than he was worth, but his demeanour was more of someone who just spoke his mind. the latter was something she could appreciate, if it turned out to be trouble. "Majima I can work with. It's better than 'guy with an eyepatch'." though if she introduced him to anyone that knew Gippal, they might be in trouble.

"So, what's there to do round here, @zankokukami?" her tongue was still getting used to his name. "This doesn't exactly look like a place that's full of excitement." or maybe it was and Paine wasn't picking up on the right signals.
