[aaternum-a]

as of recently, i've considered remaking. i've never done that before in the .. (checks watch) 11 years i've been on tumblr? i like looking at old posts and i've been on this particular blog for almost 4 years now. but i think between my absence here as i finished school and just the weight of interactions i've had that have had nothing to do with writing, i'm just anxious and miserable when i log in. which is really unfortunate because ryu is a character i've invested a lot of time in. i enjoy writing her and writing has been a hobby i've loved. i think it's been overshadowed by other factors. and it doesn't need to. i don't want that especially since this is the first time in years i feel like i can write without having to worry about papers and clinicals. if i do remake i'll keep relationships only if you want to. if you'd like to break mutuals/you have no interest in writing with me thats ok too! i just want to have fun again here. and i'm not having a good time, scoob. JNDJKNDJK. if you do want to be mutuals in the new space just like this and i'll follow when i move over. if you're not interested or you've been looking for a way to leave, thanks for being with me until now. c:

i have nothing else to post, so have an idea of what ryu sounds like in my head. this particular audio is from fu in naruto shippuden. i've never seen it and i know nothing about their particular character. RKEKWKW.

in general, i do imagine her voice to be a little on the naturally raspy side!

💗 if it's not 100%, it's obviously broken

" 80%?! Somehow this quote feels very backhanded. "

[tyraunt]

"Do you wanna come with me? I was just gonna' get some water .. I could make you a cup of tea! I think I've gotten down the way you prefer it." She smiles, leaning against the door frame, hands laced behind her back. / @aaternum (unprompted, always accepting)

"That is quite a claim coming from you." Kaleb replies, no real daggers hidden within cold words. Maybe it is her way to keep him away from things, he realizes as he puts the quill down. This girl - this woman - always had a way with words. To make the impossible seem possible, to soothe centuries-old wounds.

To be surrounded by hostility, decades of violence... and still smile. At the end of it all, she manages a smile. She shows that smile to him (it burns, it blinds, it tears at his skin - such a welcome and unwelcome respite from the blood), as if nothing is wrong. Ice cold walls seem to melt with nary a touch, it is--

-- it simply is. Kaleb has wondered many times the reason why he allows such a threat to an ancient system to roam free. Every teaching forced into his brain knows the answer to this: the solution is painless (is it?) and quick (is it?), so he should not allow it to spread like a disease. And yet what he does is shake his head, rise from his seat. There is a long silence as Kaleb observes his work, and looks back at Ryu.

Is he growing soft? Will this be used against him? Is this new vulnerability a liability? She has fought for him, bled for him. Endured loss for him. And yet. The more she does, the more he recognizes the necessity for assessing his situation. She will die. She will eventually die, die for him or used against him. "I think a break from my current work is needed." Is she so used to such a mundane task as making him tea that she probably actually memorized it? The thought is... almost comforting. And Kaleb feels like he should not cede in to it, as hard as it is.

"I always find you to be awake awfully late. Did you not have something you wished to do on the morrow?"

i'm probably going to try genshin and honkai bc a friend sat with me through the damn long download of it and said i might like it. and now i actually have time to pay attention to genshin. so i'll probably do that for the rest of the night/play dbd unless i get a whirlwind of inspiration. if you need me or want to write/have an idea my ims are always open! c: 💖

❝  no,  i don’t wanna have to talk to anyone else right now.  i just want you.  ❞ Timmy

Instinct brought her to the rooftop, frigid night biting against her rosy nose when she climbs up the ladder, eyes circling the top until they land upon him. Even in the distance she can tell he's deep in thought – about what? She hadn't the slightest guess. It could've been about the last Oni encounter; would have made sense given the luck less battle and inevitable tragedy that struck soon after. The Slayer knew she felt it at least. The sting of failure and inadequacy; the frustration of being clouded, yet again, by this mysterious force. Ryu stares for a while, arm hooked lazily around the ladders railing as she stands on its last step. He must've sensed her presence. Ever attentive it seems and she makes the minute decision to walk over beside him. Invitation or not. She settles on the ledge, hands cupped over the banister and teal hues searching his face from the side. “   Hey. I figured you already knew I was here. I think I’m getting the hang of finding you.   “ She tries to joke, sheepish laughter punctuating the thought. There's a brief lull of silence; normally she had a million things to say. And she does, but what was right?  “   Truthfully, I looked for you to see if you were okay. But I might say too much and not enough of what you need to hear. If you want, maybe I could call one of your friends or something?   ”

Really she wanted to avoid butchering her attempts with her word vomit, but it seemed that wouldn't be necessary. Her jaw slacks, crease formed between her brows when he speaks. She can’t remember the last time someone made the purposeful choice to choose her. But the words fill her heart  with something indescribably warm. And she doesn’t think she’ll ever forget that feeling.  “   O .. okay! You can have me. I mean, I’m here.   ” She nods, a lopsided little smile at her lips when she lifts a hand to place on his shoulder. “   I’m all yours. For as long as you need. We don't have to talk if you don't want to.  ” Slender digits squeeze against his shoulder as she leans closer. 

“   And if you do want to talk, I promise you. I’m listening   .”
