Belle route or Ada route? What would you like?

[wlw-lovestruck-fiction]

Can we get some Ada love? Like her and MC cuddling on the couch or maybe having a few drinks at Ada's bar after a long day? I don't even care which I just her to get appreciated

No matter how much Fiona insists that you are doing a wonderful job in the Ward, you can’t help but feel that you aren’t doing much. All of them are focused on what needs to be done and the best way to do it. In contrast to their methodical, efficient tactics, you tackled problems like a chaotic force of nature, barely giving it time to exist but certainly not solving it at all.

Not in Kellan’s opinion, anyway. To you, they looked as solved as they could get.

This discrepancy in opinions resulted in long, long discussions that left you more than a little frustrated. This night was no different. No sooner have you stepped out of the Ward that you make a beeline for Ada’s bar, grumbling to yourself. There’s no one to accompany you tonight, but you don’t mind one bit.

It’s a welcome opportunity to be alone with Ada.

Or, well, as alone as you can be in a bar full of people Ada must occasionally tend to. You’ll enjoy what you can get.

“Evening, everyone.” You say, masking your foul mood with a charming smile. Most of the patrons turn to greet you, but your attention is instantly drawn to the slender chestnut-haired bartender moving gracefully through the mass of bodies. She’s a true sight to behold, spinning this way and that while still maintaining a careful grip on the tray full of drinks she’s carrying.

Soon, the grin on your face is anything but forced. Ada has this ability to make anyone’s day better with just her presence and witty charm. The drinks she serves are merely a nice bonus.

She turns in your direction as soon as she hears your voice, beaming, her grin as brilliant and radiant as the very sun. She gestures towards the counter and then continues to deliver the drinks she still has.

You don’t wait for long – soon she’s slipping behind it, already reaching for the ingredients to make your usual drink.

“How are you holding up, Snowdrop?” She asks, voice like honey, thick and rich and so very sweet, so very warm. It chases the last vestiges of your fight with Kellan away, yet you can't help but notice the slight slump in her shoulders, her tired eyes, and the way her usual vibrant movements seem much more drained.

“Better than you, it seems. Long day?”

Ada throws the group in the back of the bar a weary look. “You could say that.”

“Anything I can do to help?”

“Just dally like you usually do. I could use the company.”

“Oh?” You lean forward. “Are you saying I can’t help you mix some drinks? You need to have some faith in me, Ada. I’m quite good with my hands.”

Ada pauses, eyes flicking upwards to meet yours, glinting with faint amusement.

“Are you, now? I’ll need a demonstration, Snowdrop.” Her grin turns even more playful when you produce a coin, making the movement linger if only to stretch the moment a little more. She tracks your hand with sharp attention, looking vaguely impressed when you deftly move it between your fingers. She laughs. “Well, I’m never questioning your skills again, that’s for sure.”

A loud shout rings from the back, and Ada’s beautiful, beautiful expression crumbles like a deck of cards, her lips thin with annoyance.

“If they are any louder, they will bring down the whole place.” She grumbles, and quickly finishes making the drinks. Her expressions softens when she catches your gaze again, apologetic. “Give me a minute-”

She freezes in shock when you shot out of your seat, hand already moving to the forgotten tray by your side.

“No, you stay here. I’ll help.”

“But you-”

“Won’t spill anything, I promise. My luck might be bad but my reflexes more than make up for it.”

“Snowdrop, I-”

“Watch me.”

While you aren’t nowhere near as graceful as she is, you have no trouble navigating the sea of limbs and hats in record time. You meet her gaze from across the room once you deliver the drinks, smug, and she merely shrugs, fond.

“Well.” She says once you get back at her side. It’s a short, sharp sound, like the tap of a boot across the dance floor, full of energy she didn’t have before. “Better get moving, then, Snowdrop. We have a long night ahead of us.”

…

Hours later, after the first rays of sunlight chase the last of the patrons away, Ada lets herself drop in one of the tables in front of her counter with a long sigh.

“You doing okay?” You ask, softly, putting the glass you were cleaning away.

Ada groans. “Been almost two days. If it weren’t for coffee, I’d… well, no, I’m probably a zombie right now.”

Zombie. You grimace, recalling the revelation the Ward had given you not too long ago. Vampires, demons, mystics, ghosts…

What if zombies-

You quickly shove that thought out of your mind, disturbed by its very existence. Your mind quickly latches onto a more interesting subject, namely the way Ada’s hair, now out of its bun, gleams beautifully if the light hits it just right. It’s a river of coppery gold falling down her shoulders, brushing her back with light, dizzying touches, drawing your attention to the tattoos she has there and oh, she’s too gorgeous and you are too sleep-deprived to function properly.

The glass you were distractedly trying to put in place clicks abruptly with another, and Ada snaps her head in your direction, startled by the sound.

Her eyes quickly find yours.

Your mind scrambles for a smooth recover, but Ada is already smirking before you can even think.

“Careful with the glass, Snowdrop. Wouldn’t want an excuse to punish you, after-” She tries to go for a suave remark and fails miserably, cut off by a yawn. You can’t help but chuckle at her mortified expression, cheeks tinted pink.

“I might come here and break a glass later.”

“Maybe I’ll regain my ability to flirt by then.” She mumbles, finally, getting to her feet with unsteady movements. Then she pauses and throws you another look, suddenly contemplative. You raise an eyebrow, intrigued.

“What? Are you considering hiring me?”

“Nothing of the sort, Snowdrop. You already have a job, remember?”

The detail had been thoroughly forgotten after seeing how tired Ada was yesterday, overwhelmed by the intense desire to help. It’s not like you can be blamed, though, you’ve only been in the job for less than a week and it already looks like Kellan wants to fire you, anyway, never mind the fact that you are a witch.

But you did, technically, have a job. Joy.

The reminder makes you aware of how exhausted you are. You rub your temple, frustrated.

“Right. That. Honestly, I don’t think it’ll work out.”

Ada snorts. “Yeah, I was intrigued when Sascha mentioned you were going to join the Ward. Never thought I’d see a thief there.”

“So… does than mean I can work here when I inevitably get fired?”

“I wouldn’t complain.” She yawns again, and smiles tiredly. “Anyway, the Ward is a tough job, plus you had to pull an all-nighter because of me. And we are quite far away from Donna’s place, so… you could…” She trails off, suddenly bashful, looking at the side. It’s a strange look on her, because she is usually so effortlessly confident, but it doesn’t stop the rush of warmth affection that courses through you at the sight. “You can sleep here, if you’d like.”

Your heart leaps to your throat, insistent, thumbing so loudly you fear she can hear it.

“I’d love to.”

Ada is beaming before you can even finish, hand already slipping between yours, leading you away from the counter and upstairs, to her small apartment. It’s remarkably cozy, away from the loudness of the world.

“How many hours do you have?” Ada asks, curiously.

“Probably three before Fiona or Cecilia turn the whole town on its head to find me.”

And either of them would find you straight away. The joys of the Otherworld knew no bounds, that’s for sure.

“They will be the best three hours of your life, I promise.” She laughs when you smirk at her, swatting your arm. “To rest, of course. Really, I can’t see you in the Ward with that mind of yours.”

“And Sascha?”

“Sascha is. Well. Sascha.” She pauses. “How are either of you in the Ward, again?”

“How is anyone but Cecilia, you mean.”

“They have their responsible moments.” A shrug, and then she’s pulling you straight into the bed. You fall in a tangle of limbs neither of you wants to break. Ada’s voice turns softer, full of wonder. “And then there’s you. Pure, untamable chaos. And you chose to waste your night away working with me instead of resting.”

“Being with you it’s fun.”

Her eyes are falling shut. She blinks sleepily. “Say, Snowdrop? I don’t want to pretend there’s nothing between us.”

All week has been nothing but teasing and flirting, sparking interest, igniting it with a touch, then watch it flicker while both of you tried to see what the other would do, how you should respond…

And here’s Ada, half-asleep, throwing it all out of the window with one direct sentence. You laugh. It’s a very Ada thing to do.

“I don’t want to, either.”

“Wonderful.” She murmurs, and itches closer, humming softly when you hug her and pull her close. “Will I see you tonight?”

“Every night, unless the Ward sends me to the desert or something similar.”

“Right, the Ward. Sure, okay… I can work with that…”

She’s out in seconds, there in your arms, breathing softly. You smile, happier than you’ve been in ages. You can’t wait to see how everything will turn out.

Woods

((written as part of this challenge))

It was the cold that worried me most. I could taste the snow on the air, and even through the knotting, twining branches of the trees hanging above me, I could see iron-heavy clouds encroaching on us from the east. I gave a sharp shake of my head, tearing my eyes from the sight as I pushed off again, all the deeper into the forest.

My flesh felt as though a layer of ice was crusted over it, dulling my senses to all but the cold and I had to drag myself forward against the force of the wind itself. If the air bit and gnawed through to my bones this badly, then I could only imagine what it did to those boys...

“This is war, and they were the children of our enemies! Lord Tyelcormo died at their father's hands!” The voices of my brother's servants still rang in my ears. I'd thought myself hardened after hundreds of years of war, after two kin-slayings already committed. Clearly, I was wrong.

“Eluréd , Elurín!” I'd learned their names from a captured Thinda. In all hopes they would anwer to them, their fears of the cold and the dark outweighing any fear they might have had of me. My eyes peirced though the darkness between the tress, searching, probing for any sign of movement.

The light of my torched flicked feebly against the dark, and despite it's flame, my hand was starting to grow numb. Heaving asside a low hanging tangle of branches, I called for the boys again.

“Eluréd , Elurín! ”

Voices rose up in the distance, and I lifted my head, turning back to the sound. But these lacked the high-pitched clarity of a child's voice, and their figures, growing through the twisted web of undergrowth, were clearly those of grown néri as they approached.

“Nelyo! Nelyo, where are – “ Kano's voice, and he cut himself off immedietly after seeing me.  I shook my head, turning and pushing on back towards the dark before he could catch up with me. The snow crunched beneath his feet as he ran, then a flash of dark hair and bloodspattered armour out of the corner of my eye.

“Nelyo, you've been at this for hours now.”

“And I wll remain out here until I find – “

“Nelyo!” There was enough force in my brother's voice to drag me to a halt and to finally get me to turn and look at him. His eyes were hard, his chin lifted , it was the same expression he'd give to one of his men were they to not follow his orders. It was not a look that suited him well, and he almost seemed a different person entirely when he wore it. Even in the next moment that look was already melting off his face, his expression softening. He reached out a hand, clasping it around my shoulder. “The idea of those boys, those children left out there..I know, but – ”

“If I keep loking maybe I can find them before – ”

“Nelyo! I'll not risk your life for the lives of two children who are likely alredy dead!”

My stomach dropped at those words. I wrenched myself out of my brother's grasp turning off down my former path again. For a moment I paused, just staring out into the thick shadows between the trees. Nothing moved, nothing made a sound. There was only the wind. It stung at me to admit it, twisting at my gut and making me feel sick, but my brother was probably right.

Behind me Kano sighed. “There's a blizard coming in.” He said, “If we turn back now we might make it back to camp before it gets too bad.”

I felt him reach out again, his hand curling around my shoulder as he tried to pull me back. I resisted at first, but as the wind began to howl all the louder I found myself turning, slowly, and following after my brother.  I never forgave myself for that, after that day.

As we walked on, I thought I saw a flash of movement out of the corner of my eye and turned back, but as my torchlight fell upon the spot, I saw nothing but trees.

“Are they gone?” Eluréd asked.

I nodded, watching the light of the fire fade off into the distance. “Yes.” I said, turning back to my brother, “they are.”

Eluréd looked less scared, hearing that. At my words, he stepped forward a bit, out from the protective grasp of the elf who had found us and glanced up at him. We both did.

His hair was silver, like many of the Elves that followed Ada and called him King, and he had a beard. He didn't look so scary, carrying a flute at his side instead of a sword. Not like the ones that'd left us out here. “Alright then, my princes, lets find you a warm place to sleep then, shall we?” he said, standing up and waving the both of us after him.  Eluréd and I followed. I pulled my cloak more tightly around my shoulders, suddenly remembering how cold it was with those words.

“What did you say your name was, again?” I asked the older elf, glancing up  to look at him.

He smiled at the question, giving me a short bow of his head, “Tinfang, my lord.” He said, “Tinfang Gelion.”

Placement Test?

Senin, 10 Juli 2017.

Hari ini untuk pertama kalinya aku ikut placement test untuk Diklat Effective Communication Skill. Jadi ceritanya, bagian SDM di instansi tempatku bekerta akan mengadakan training bahasa inggris. Nah, training ini akan diikuti oleh beberapa pegawai dengan kuota yang ditentukan untuk masing-masing divisi. Divisi di instansi tempat aku bekerja disebut dengan Bidang/Bagian. Nah divisiku sebutannya Bidang XXX gitulah pokoknya rahasia. Terus dengan kuota yang ada maka ditawarilah semua pegawai dengan cara atasannya masing-masing. Kalo atasanku nawarinnya lewat grup WhatsApp, sore-sore gitu. Berhubung aku abis baca-baca artikel yang menggugah jiwa beserta sebelumnya aku sempet diskusi sama temen seangkatanku kalo training itu untuk para pemula, akupun memutuskan untuk mengusulkan diri.

Beberapa hari setelah itu barulah aku tau bahwa yang ikut diklat itu gak cuma anak-baru doang, atau orang-orang yang pemula doang seperti yang aku simpulkan ketika diskusi sama temen seangkatanku. Dan tahukan Anda, atasanku dan atasan sebelah pun ikut ini. Atasan-atasan bidang lain juga ada yang ikut. Yah.. Inimah langsung ketahuan dong levelku bakalan berada di posisi mana.

Akhirnya hari itupun telah itiba. Seperti biasa, aku selalu belum pernah sempurna melakukan persiapan dalam hal apapun. Pukul 15.00 kurang sepertempat, aku menuju ruang ujian dengan bekal ancang-ancang yang seadanya. Suasananya santai sih, tapi kemudian temenku yang duduk di belakangku ketika di ruang ujian bilang kalo kata senior dulu itu nanti gak semua lulus tes. Jadi gak seperti yang aku bayangkan sebelumnya yang kupikir semua bakal tetep ikut diklat itu meski bakal di level paling dasar, soalnya sudah dikuota sejak awal. Ternyata nanti memang bakal ada training level dasar, level intermediate, dan advance, dan juga ada yang gak lolos terus gak bakal bisa ikut training itu.

Wll, sampai di titik itu aku cuma bisa berkata Nothing to Lose lah yaa. Kalaupun gak lolos ya wajar, saingannya juga senior-senior dan atasan. Tapi tetep ajasih ngarep lulus terus ikut training itu, pengen banget. Soalnya mumpung masih anak baru saatnya belajar sebanyak-banyaknya gak sih, kalo salah-salah masih bisa dimaklumi namanya juga anak baru, masih kecil, ceilah.

Placement Test buat Training Effective Communication Skill terdiri dari dua bagian. Tersedia waktu 1,5 jam dengan ujian berupa ujian tulis dan wawancara. Ujian tulisnya terdiri dari 60 soal, lebih ke grammar sih, terus tes wawancaranya bentar doang aku rasa, tapi gak tau berapa menit tepatnya.

Pukul 16.30 akhirnya selesai. Semoga lolos, meskipun harus ada di level dasar, gakpapah, yang penting lolosh. Aamiin!

Nah, ini cerita first time momentku hari ini, mana cerita first time momentmu?

XD

CINDER AND ADA ROUTE WHEN??? now.

[wlw-lovestruck-fiction]

Am I the only one who’s annoyed that a lot of MCs are thrown into a situation and are total rookies, (pretty much EEA is the only one I can think of that actually guides the LIs)

Oh yeah, it’s a big part of why I’m hoping for an Ada route in WLL. I mean 👀 how could I not? - Mod Jessa

[wlw-lovestruck-fiction]

Omg I just realized Fiona is on the calendar too!! I’m really excited for her, I really like the setting of WLL but I never got into Cecelia so I’m hoping I’ll like Fiona.

Ohh, I love me some Cecelia 😏 But I agree! WLL is a really interesting setting, and I am excited for Fiona as well! Her route has the possibility to go into some really intriguing places/themes, I think. I'm also keeping my fingers crossed for an Ada route. I legit swoon everytime she calls the MC 'Snowdrop' 😍 - Mod Runa

[wlw-lovestruck-fiction]

Going along with the person who was talking about the WLL survey. We honestly don't know that much about Ada(?) She's the lady at the bar and I'm honestly not that into her. I voted for Sascha instead cause I know people are looking forward to him :)

That’s super interesting. See I’m REALLY excited for Ada. I loved her pretty damn quickly haha. She’s just gorgeous! - Mod Viv
