what if we found out about the trap sooner | another day in paradise

The soldiers were storming the fort. That was fine, La Moral was ready to fight at the drop of a hat. But Brielle had a bad feeling. When Bri stopped in her tracks, Shadow, her jaguar, ran in front of Jonron and El Tigre to stop them. "What's the hold up, Princesa?" Jonron grinned, turning to tease her girlfriend, stopping when she saw Brielle's expression. Bri had stopped to check her phone, hearing it chime in her pocket. And the message horrified her. She frantically forwarded it to Yelena, before she looked up. "We have to go." "What?" "The attack isn't to drive us out. It's to keep us here!" "What?" "They wanna get us all fighting then drop PG-240 on the fort. We need to go. Now!" "Well what are you waiting for? Lead the way, mija." Ignoring the warmth in her chest at hearing the man she'd come to see like a father call her that, Brielle turned and ran. Everyone she passed she warned, and her intel was confirmed when red smoke started appearing in the sky above the fort.

Coughing and stumbling, Brielle led about fifteen people from the fort's walls, and as she did, she heard the call.

The words were at least sort of comforting, because it meant Yelena had made it out, and if she had, Dani wasn't far behind.

La Moral, if anyone can hear me, regroup at Patriotas Peak. I repeat. Regroup at Patriotas Peak.

They had a destination. As Brielle was trying to figure out the logistics of getting everyone back, Jonron appeared at her side. "Didn't catch that call, who was it?" "Yelena. Regroup on the mountain." "Call. See if anyone's with her."

Brielle figured that if Yelena made it out, she was with Dani when they left. "Dani! You there?" "Bri! You made it! Who's with you?" "Me, Jonron, El Tigre, and about fifteen others. Who's with you?" "It's just me and Yelena." Jonron let out a sigh. Relief, at the knowledge her friend was okay. The time arrived to all meet up back at the mountain, hugs all around was the immediate reaction, then it was realizing what had happened, and how close they had come to death just then. Then came the calculations. How many they'd lost, and what their next move would be. After this attack, Dani was able to tell Clara that Libertad had the support of La Moral and the Legends of '67.

The fight was not over, but the day could have gone so much worse.

my birthday in yara

Brielle's birthday rolls around, and it's a cat and mouse game. Everyone's asking Bri for her help with this thing and that thing, mainly to get her away from the base so that Jonron can make her an actual birthday cake. Dani is probably the one to drag Bri off on the ruse of taking out a roadblock or two. The fighting gives the crew back at the base time to prepare. The 'party' is less of a party and more of a handful of friends drinking and having a good time among themselves. There isn't much as far as gifts, though. It's pretty much whatever the others found that they thought Bri would like. The cake is strawberry.

High Hopes: What is your greatest wish for S/I? for El Tigre

Ready To Go: Where in your universe would you absolutely love to take S/I on a fun get away trip? What would you like to do/how would you like to spend that trip together? For Eddie

New Perspective: How has S/I made you see the world differently since you met? What new things do you see/notice now that they're in your life? For Jonrón

Sarah Smiles: What makes S/I happy? What cheers them up when they're feeling low? for Dustin

I hope these find you in good health and good cheer!!✨💙

Moxie @tex-treasures

Thank you for this :) I love p! and probably always will so this was… right up my alley. Anyhow, to the questions you have asked of my loves. I will go retrieve them-

High Hopes: What is your greatest wish for S/I? I just wanna see her make it out of this. As nice as it is to be able to fight for what you believe in, sometimes you need to make it past the fight. Plus, I want her to have a chance to settle down with Mercedes- We interrupt your previously scheduled question answering for a mild to moderate battle of throwing fruit seeds at each other, started by Jonron. ( I like to have them both help me save fruit seeds to plant and grow later- ) As I was saying, before someone interrupted me, it'd be nice to see Brielle see the other side of conflicts in Yara. Make a life for herself here.

Ready To Go: Where in your universe would you absolutely love to take S/I on a fun get away trip? What would you like to do/how would you like to spend that trip together? Take her on a trip? Oh wow, uh… if I could swing it, I think I'd take Dottie to the big city. Chicago, maybe! Get outta Hawkins for a while. I think we need it. As far as what we'd do, we'd have to do all the major things one does on a trip. Eat lots of food, see all the sights, stay up till the break of dawn and sleep till noon. Maybe see a show or something. I think Grateful Dead's going on tour again soon. Oh, you've just given me an idea. Thanks!

New Perspective: How has S/I made you see the world differently since you met? What new things do you see/notice now that they're in your life? For Jonrón Ah, don't let her hear a word i'm saying or Bri will never let me live it down. Okay? Okay. Now, mi princesa, she's actually taught me a lot. Sometimes you need to slow down and appreciate what you have. Before I met her, all I wanted to do was keep fighting. All my friends were by my side in La Moral. And then Brielle showed up and through her I realized that there's more to life. Appreciate the little things. Nights with friends that we all spend together, flowers growing in the countryside, stray dogs playing in the street. The little things that remind us that there's still life after this, and to give us even more to fight for.

Sarah Smiles: What makes S/I happy? What cheers them up when they're feeling low? What makes my sister happy. She'd deny it, but I can say I'm on that list, alongside my friends. Hanging out with us . Playing D&D. Or running a campaign! She ran a few and she got super into it. Spending time with Eddie always leaves her in a good mood. Same with listening to most albums released by AC/DC or Metallica. When it comes to cheering her up if she's feeling down, a lot of the time a nice long drive will get her feeling better. Or telling her a bunch of my jokes. If all else fails, i'll call Eddie. Hes kind of my secret weapon when it comes to Dot, now that i know they're together. He has some sort of magic skill for making her feel better when she's upset.

Thank you for the ask!!!!

Howdy Bear! Thank you for your support and sweet words on my Ozymandias art, I really appreciate you taking the time to say so in the tags ✨💙🥺

I wanted to ask, what are some things you're looking forward too as it slowly turns colder? Any fun plans lined up with any of your f/os 👀?

Tex @tex-treasures

Your art style is lovely and I like supporting my moots, plus your relationship seems wonderful from what i've osmosis-ed reading your blog. ✨✨

Is this gonna be majorly Halloween themed because Halloween is my favorite? Yes.

Wrench and Zigzag are both nerds, so they annoy the rest of the team by decorating the hideout at holidays. Halloween always has a theme, and this year it's Friday the 13th / Camp Crystal Lake

Bri and Jonron are taking part in the pineapple jack-o'-lantern trend and they carve some themselves to decorate, because that was the one thing Bri and her family did in the fall was carve pumpkins, so she wanted to bring that with her.

I feel like Hawkins celebrates the fall more than anything, with hayrides and corn mazes and haunted houses. Dorothy knows she's gonna get roped into taking the party to a corn maze with her co-babysitter Steve, and has a date planned with Eddie for a night of Haunted houses. Rebecca has a date night planned with Steve involving a corn maze, because she's not brave enough for a haunted house.

In Hope County, the Resistance throws a hell of a Halloween party, and it is one of a few moments in the year that Eden's Gate and the Resistance have a truce. Any children who remain in the county are welcome to trick-or-treat at the veteran's center, Seed Ranch, and Joseph's compound. As far as Minerva and John, there's plenty of hot apple cider, sunset by a bonfire 'dates' in their future.

Margaret, as a witch, loves Halloween, and as a nerd, loves franchises like Hocus Pocus and Nightmare Before Christmas. This is the season where she breaks out her merch stash. She'd be the type to drag her man on cutesy outings, and Klaus enjoys the times where they just go for coffee and a walk, Margaret pointing out changing colors in the leaves. Margaret is planning a trip to a hayride and a corn maze, but she knows if word gets out she'll have not just one Mikaelson, but at least a few, so she's trying to keep it quiet.

Did this turn into more of Halloween headcanons? Yes. Maybe I'll expand on them in the future 🤔

As far as me myself, I'm impatiently awaiting the return of apple cider on store shelves, aisles of Halloween decorations, the leaves changing colors, and the seasonal mountain dew mystery flavor I just recently found in stores.

Thanks for the ask Tex!!

Far Cry 6, set in the once glorious country of Yara. My s/i, Brielle, did not expect her two week vacation to turn into a three year long war. Bri knew something was up when she got to Yara, and quickly learned what it was. She decided to stay once she realized what was truly going on behind Yara's shining facade.

MEET BRIELLE! - bri was originally hoping to soak up some sun - then she made it to yara and realized the real menace that was going on - loves the diy aspects of her role, and has made some crazy things to use herself. - has a pet jaguar. nobody knows how bri got her, but she calls the cat shadow.

BRIELLE + JONRON - it was shortly after bri decided to stay that the two ladies met. - they encountered each other every so often as brielle was being introduced to libertad. - a few missions together, and they were attached at the hip - a fun date for these two is a raid. they're weird like that. - they do have nice dates every so often, however. - bri is the brains, jonron's the brawn. their partnership works well that way. - jonron is one of the only people, other than bri, that shadow likes.
