“ He’s a sleazeball and a jerk, but that’s not why I’m here, ” Octavia responded, in instantaneous, unabashed agreement. If there was anything they could stand to agree on without anything close to a real discussion, it was certainly that. “ I’m flunking three classes and I can’t catch up at home. Hasn’t felt like home since… ”

——-Since her mother had passed, not a year ago. Since the apartment she and Bellamy had lived in their whole lives had deteriorated into a shadow of what it’d once been, leaving them lost, floundering for a grasp on anything at all like routine. School, for the most part, should have given Octavia that. Instead, it’d been arduous, harder to adjust to than even Raven’s willingness to help her scrape by when she most needed the support, though she hadn’t asked for it.

They didn’t have to talk about that.

Adjusting her grip on the pen in her hand, tongue catching the inside of her lower lip piercing, Octavia offered the other girl a purse of her lips, a lift of her brow, in lieu of any resolution to her un-concluded thought. They weren’t friends —– not even close, and not even Monty had pried everything out of her yet. “ My physics notes are a mess, and you know it. Think we can start there? ”

raven’s eyebrows lift for a moment, her mouth dropping open to respond before she quickly quiets herself. she retains the information that octavia has divulged but stores it away for safekeeping, dark eyes studying the other woman’s face as she allows her features to soften. she knew what it was like for home to not feel like home anymore, something that she learned early on in her life despite her small body’s constant protest against it. she wouldn’t wish that feeling on anyone friend, acquaintance or otherwise.

“ yep. we can give that a go first. ” she replies quickly and with a small nod. before octavia had been assigned to her she had made sure to speak to and schedule meetings with the teacher that was handling the program anyone would have wanted to know what they were getting into with someone they barely knew. “ i got your lesson plans from your teachers,” she starts slowly, shrugging, “ grab your textbook so i can check out what chapters you’re supposed to be on. ”

aigonakru, bellamy.

an airy sigh escaped his lungs, frustrated already with the effects of lack of rest. he was worried about so many things that at night he couldn’t get the rest that he needed. they had only been on the ring for a few weeks now and yet his body had felt like he hadn’t took a break in months.

“ ‘m fine– ” he tried his best to get out to the brunette who was forcing him to sit. “ not trying to be funny. “ his voice low and groggy, too exhausted to enunciate his words clearly.

“ why are you so concerned about what i’m doing? “ he didn’t run controls or anything vital to keeping the ring in good standing. he cleaned their quarters every so often and would sometimes even take up the role of keeping the bathroom tidy, which was a task that he loathed.

her brows furrow immediately, the crease at her forehead tinged with a small, sudden surge of anger. “ i care, asshole. that’s why. ” she shook her head, dark eyes lulling closed for a moment as she centered herself with a deep, pent-up sigh.

“ look, ” she starts, eyes rolling back to focus on his weary form, “ i’ll level with you. i know that i’m not the best at taking breaks when i need them either. ” it was an understatement, raven reyes did not know what stop was when she got started with something the answer was always just a moment away.

“ but we’ve got to take care of ourselves up here... ” she pauses for a moment, wondering if what she’s going to say next is likely to turn their conversation hostile. “ isn’t it just... nice to not have to be scared of what’s coming next for once? i can’t be the only one that thinks that way. ”

gonpleiga, echo.

@damnmechanic gets a starter

“ —— so niylah gave it her approval, “ echo says, opening her hand over raven’s workstation to drop a dried, green bud on her desk. where the rest of them had given up transcendence for a life of farming and fishing, sunny beach days and peaceful nights by the fire, raven had given up the potential of a pain-free, limitless existence to return back here with them. to struggle through the day to day toils of their primitive life by the beach with a limp and stiff, aching muscles.

after a few cups of moonshine, echo might have more than a few words to say about the mighty judge who left them here.

“ we’re gonna try it tonight, ” she tells her, eyes scouring raven’s face as she watches her. “ i thought if you wanted to join us… maybe you might find it relaxing. “ her eyes flicked briefly to the brace around raven’s affected leg.

she’s almost carefree. beyond having to figure their living situation out there was no imminent danger to prepare for, no solution that needed to be thought up and carried out by solely her. raven does still maintain a workshop as an outlet for her stress, however. she still finds herself needing time away and something to keep her hands busy to keep her brain from running wild and rampant.

“ mm? ” she murmurs in response, her head tilting as her eyes catch the earth-made sedative that echo had placed atop her desk. she regards it quietly for a moment, bottom lip drawn in between her teeth, before she replies with a small shrug.

“ i don’t know, echo. ” she’s uncertain about it. it’s natural, it comes straight out of the ground ( niylah and echo won’t let her forget that small fun fact ) but she feels like a hypocrite. she had pushed and pushed abby for using the pain killers, so much that she still felt the guilt, how would this be any different? “ don’t let me stop you though. ”

#insp. the old guard. ↝ until the end.

ARE YOU A SOLDIER , A POET , OR A KING ?

THE KING

" there will come a ruler whose brow is laid in thorn smeared with oil like david’s boy " DUTY. STRENGTH. RESIGNATION. you were told to do things and you did them. the world is something that was put into your hands and that you must deal with - so you will. you have a rigid back and steady hands, either metaphorically or physically. is it nature or nurture ? you don't know. you are tired of being steady. you dream of feeling alive. not that you aren't, but, sometimes, it's hard to remember that there is a heart between your ribs. your love is where you breathe. come on, breathe. in. out. it starts now.

what a weird fucking year. and by weird I mean trash. DESPITE THE TRASH however, this year brought me back to indie for the first time in forever. when liz talked me into making hope and getting back into it, i had no idea what 2020 was going to bring, but now that we’re here, and we’ve seen what a dumpster fire this year was, i want you all to know what a bright spot in it you’ve been. it’s been so great having my blogs to sit back and kill time on when everything is a mess. i’ve loved writing with all of you, your amazing characters. i’ve loved getting to know you all either through your shit posts, your dash commentary, or on discord. thank you for being the only good thing in 2020.

This is a new years follow forever but also a thank you because I just hit 600 followers on @nexusvorti and over 200 here in such a short time. So we’re combining this all into one big cross-blog happy.

Shout out first, of course, and always to the LOML @supervisories / @geminaes / @bayouroyalty / @laebeled / @awesomegaydar / @departingsouls whatever fucking blog i can tag you at. I’m not going to be a sappy mess this time around but know that I adore you, I am so grateful that I have you in my life. i can’t wait for this pandemic to be over so we can stop skyping so much and see each other’s face for real.

to my lifelong friends @shcftingpieces @silencedrage / @triguilt, @twinfractured / @ofvalor, @anunquietgrave / @dottirmikaelson, @damnmechanic - you’ve been on a thousand of these posts, you’ve heard me say it a million times, having known some of you for 10+ years, other for five or more, hanging out with you al in person, in LA, and having you in constants in my life is so important to me. I love our RP things, sure. But your friendships are so much more than that. Here’s to another fucking year of this shit.

more love letters below the cut:
