Dear Pathfinder Siobhan Ryder,

I have a co-funded R&D project that requires an on-site evaluation visit before finalization.

Would you join me Pathfinder? I am almost certain you will be starstruck.

/♚

####Attached to the message are a set of coordinates near Ditaeon outpost, with a date and time for the rendezvous: 23 December 03:00.

          THE NIGHT WAS DARK AND FULL OF STARS at the agreed upon time and place. A dark figure of a man waits on a hilltop overlooking the valley where Ditaeon resides under his watchful eyes.

HE SENSES HER before he sees her approach, a jolt to his SPINE that he represses to the best of his abilities.

❝ Pathfinder❞  REYES turns to face her, slowly and deliberately. GOLDEN eyes catching speckles of light from the surrounding light pollution from the outpost.

❝Glad you could join me,❞  In reality, he knew she would come the moment he had sent the message. Siobhan not showing up was not a possible outcome in his mind. FOOLISH perhaps, or just another proof of his delusions of GRANDEUR.

BEHIND HIM a blackout structure looms, harbouring a satellite disk eclipsing in a dark CUT-OUT silhouette against the night sky.

“I wanted to become something better than what I was. And here I am – the same fool I was in the Milky Way. I wanted to be someone..” 一 from here

          THE IMPLICATIONS OF HER WORDS turns his mind into a whirlpool of bristling activity. He feels THE BILE rising in his throat, emanating from the very idea that KASUMI played him back at the NEXUS.

THE DATA she claimed to so skillfully have HANDLED is an IMMUTABLE part of her CEREBRAL CORTEX. A Grey-box, figures, no-one was that good a hacker without enhancements.

VIDAL swallows his pride, because he is not a complete insensitive B A S T A R D, but he's unmoved by the fact that Kas seems to sincerely be opening her equivalency of a HEART to him. Stiff and still as a board. Every curvature and muscle of his face unmoving. Not a one. he silently fights the coldness all shocking betrayals normally induces in any RELATIONSHIP.

I should ask for a refund.

          THE SLENDER FRAME OF THE CHARLATAN leans back into his seat. His eyes follow Kas, probing for hints of dishonesty,  an unspoken cross-examination. Reyes wonder if she will burst into one of her usual FITS of laughter at any given moment.

She doesn't.

REYES downs his drink in one go, elegantly formed words finally leave his lips, accompanied with a small headshake of disbelief:

❝Well, shit.❞

Hi! Referring to your previous post: do you actually write novels/novellas? Or do you only write rp and drabbles? Do you post somewhere else than on Tumblr? I like your writing, so i’m being curious… but don’t answer if you don’t want to, that's ok! -from a greedy girl-

Hi friend! *nervous cough* No I do not post anywhere else or have any unpublished Reyes material stacked away anywhere else then IN MY BRAIN. Side effect of writing a character for  about 9 months time.

AS FOR BRAIN SPACE I have two ficlets I need to get onto paper, one about Zia and Reyes and one about his relationship with his father (imagine Reyes but older and with a mustache)… Anyway, anything I write will be posted here. Thanks for letting me know you enjoy my writing!

Why do every rp post I write turn into a novell?

        Kasumi seldom felt so BITTER but there felt to be a cloud of melancholy following her every where she went. To feel so alone. So used. And it was nothing that could be justified or a sensation that would be relieved quickly. “I just want to feel like I’m somewhere I belong and here I’m just, what, a tool you call and dismiss at your wish?” - from here

         UNFAIR, speaking as if she never had gotten anything out from their business arrangement, her life for one thing. Now she comes here asking for a place to BELONG, people to call friends and family.

Why did she think he could offer her any of that? What was he other than a THIRD-RATE smuggler with an ever expanding SPHERE of influence.

❝Tell me something Goto…❞ he uncrosses his legs, leaning forward in the FLUSHED seat, simultaneously SURFACING from his usual atmosphere of delinquently and unscathed nonchalance. After deporting his drinking glass  on the table he puts his hands together, squeezes them tightly, forcing THE LEATHER in them to emit a CREAKING noise before he asks the question of all questions. If her answer was sincere, he might entertain the notion to pull her CLOSER to him.

❝Why did you come here? Not Tartarus tonite, but here, to Andromeda.❞

     “Tired of being what you want me to be… Don’t know what you’re expecting of me, put under the pressure of walking in your shoes. Every step that I take is another mistake to you.”

[bastardofkadara]

          VIDAL was not at all prepared for the sudden DECLINE of mirth in Kasumi’s words. 

“You could never disappoint me Kas, not really. Drinks are on me tonight. Officially.”

          THE INVITATION is punctual, REYES has come to expect nothing less of the ever vigilant PATHFINDER.

SKIMMS the secure channel Siobhan so THOUGHTFULLY has prepared for him. He allows himself an almost FOND chuckle as he logs into the chatroom, under an alias consisting of just one symbol:♚

::Nice to see you find some time to spare for a friendly game pathfinder, I know you are very busy. What is this project I have torn you away from?

Fancy a game of chess, Pathfinder? Interesting opponents are hard to come by on Kadara.

I’ll even let you go first.

Masking your IP address does you a great disservice as it serves no purpose. So does your contrived chivalry. You caught me in the middle of a project.  Give me an hour & a game will be set up.

Dear pathfinder,

Do not mistake tactics for chivalry.

One hour then.

◖◤SIOBHAN◢◗

  ❝  no  reyes.    they  are  not  dogs  or  circus  seals.  ❞  she  says,  offhanded,  cups  beneath  the  chin  of  one  of  the  two,  giving  a  soft  headbutt,  ❝  they,  however,  spit  acid.    do  try not to  provoke  them.  ❞  

siobhan  appears  to  be  wrapped  up  in  caring  for  these  animals  ;  affectionate.  

from here

       THE CREATURE was impressive, even in its infant stage. Reyes had never seen the creatures alive, up close and personal. chose to follow Siobhan's instructions to the LETTER in this unfamiliar setting.

The Rylkor seemed to… like it. Reyes lips twitch, fighting a content grin from SPREADING too wide. He raises his other gloved hand and gives the reptile the petting of a lifetime. The strange CREAKING sound emitted from the creatures tummy and the small vibration rocking through its body and throat seems to suggest that Reyes was doing an ADEQUATE work.

        A QUICK glance cast in Siobhan’s direction causes him to descry a new side of Ryder. The SOFTNESS apparent on her face and relaxed body language is disarming to observe. It gives him HOPE for the future.

❝ Who’s a good boy?   Vidal murmurs softly, meant only for the Rylkor's ears. The encounter with the animal reminding him of simpler times, of the dogs he looked after growing up. 

 ❝Don’t listen to Siobhan, I am sure you would be GREAT at fetching.❞  He confides, even softer, giving Ryder a MISCHIEVOUS glance over his shoulder.
