will I ever be more than I've always been?

She will never forget the first time he approached her. His voice was low, so she had to lean in a little. Since then, Ren’s words to her were limited, always keeping her wondering if he’d talk to her at all. It was different, enchanting, and mysterious. In a world where people speak more than they should, Áile pondered if Ren existed in shadows of apprehension. It made her heart pick up and her eyes wander around the room during painful, endless, parties and events. “Is it okay that I’m waiting for an Ayanami?” She didn’t know the answer, but she enjoyed her ignorance as it gave her an excuse to wish for their next encounter.

She moved to Los Angeles right before turning nineteen in an attempt to enjoy sunnier days and heal. She never felt alone; she went to New York daily because of her work, and her friends would visit her back at L.A. pretty often. But her heart was asking her to go back to him; to close the distance once and for all. Nova found a place where to study Education for Young Wizards in New York, so she told everyone about her plans during her 21st birthday party.

Step #1: The Visit Levi and Bienna are having dinner alone. [L] Okay, pay attention. You are going to his house tomorrow at midday, and ask to see his father about something security-related. [B] But he is not at home at that time of day. [L] Exactly. Step #2: The Accident Nightfall. Levi and Bienna are getting ready to leave the poolside. [L] That was painful to see. [B] You were laughing the whole time! I tried, okay? I tried falling into the fountain, but it’s not my fault they are so good at their jobs! [L] Okay, fine, I’ll help you. He pushes her into the pool. Step #3: The Slumber Party Afternoon before dinner. [L] Okay, so you guys get dinner and then you ask him to stay over for the night. [B] That’s a bit blunt even for me. [L] Okay, then say we had a fight and that you don’t want to go back home. [B] But I don’t want to lie to him. [L] You have to. [B] I don’t want to. [L] See? We are already fighting, it’s not a lie anymore. [B] Come on! [L] Fine! Then say I have someone over tonight. Bienna starts laughing. He remains serious. [B] Wait. You actually DO have someone over tonight! What!? [L] You have to leave right now if you want to make it. [B] We are not done, mister, we’ll talk in the morning. Step #4: The Final Act [B] So? What now? [L] Now you hold on to a good thing. +Bonus: Levi back in his room.

I’ve never been able to wash off your voice off my skin, nor erase your fears from my heart. After all these years, I learned to mold myself to your body, and what you wished for became my dream future. But, just like that, I wasn’t allowed to know you anymore.

levi x bienna | the last straw

Things changed fast after Bienna’s takeover. The days were long and filled with extensive information about what Lorella had been doing until then. Everyone calling her by her sister’s name always brought a shiver down her spine, a whisper of “it should have been you”. Bienna felt more and more lost as the days went by, trying her best to run in what felt like an eternal race towards nothing. Her mother spent most of the time locked in her chamber, and only got out when it was necessary. Bienna wished for her guidance but only found silence and sadness.

She tried to take it all in and accept the reality. She didn't allow for any weakness or showing her sorrow. Bienna could tell that Levi was trying as well, but she spotted redness in his eyes quite a few times. She didn't blame him. It was the normal thing to do. She was the one depriving herself of any emotion.

Levi's coping mechanism was to get involved in the search for the killers. At first, it looked reasonable and necessary. But then months went by, and Bienna started to find him asleep at his desk or working all-nighters for days on end. It became clear to her that it had turned into an obsession.

Bienna decided to confront him about it, not knowing that Levi had been struggling with her lack of emotional display. For months they had only discussed work, and all the regret, pain, and resentment that had piled up exploded at once. Hurtful things were said. They screamed at each other like they never had done before. When Levi, with tears clouding his vision, finally expressed the fear he felt when he saw Lorella's body and also saw Bienna, he left the room. Alone and emotionally exhausted, Bienna finally allowed herself to cry.

bienna x levi | through the years

Queen Alanis always said to Bienna, “Even if you weren’t meant to be brother and sister, you were always meant to be friends”. The bond of friendship between both their mothers was strong enough to live through another generation. It always felt obvious for Bienna that Levi would play a big part in her life.

When she was born and Levi’s mother brought her home, he quickly understood that it was his duty to protect her and swore that he would. It was always easy for her to call him “brother”, even after learning the truth. They moved to Venus together, studied together, trained together, shared a room and understood each other.

They both were strong-willed, stubborn and curious. Bienna liked to improvise and Levi was always the man with a plan. He would always anticipate events and plan accordingly. Nobody was surprised when he started his training to be Lorella’s adviser. The day of the attack, he escaped death by mere chance, because Bienna asked him to stay in Venus one more night for her birthday. He was getting back to Mars when it happened. Both Lorella and his mother, along with their security team, were killed.

When Bienna took her sister’s place, Levi stepped in to be her adviser.

That was the first time they said something that broke his heart; for such a long time, Atlas thought they saw his love for Bienna as something that made sense, as something tangible—as more than just him “having fun.” In reality, it was as if his friends felt relieved after knowing Bienna didn’t want him; as if all of this happening meant the girls could finally relax and not worry about him, because he now knows he was being stupid for falling for someone that didn’t feel the same way, 

Months later, Atlas understood that his friends were only trying to make him feel better. Maybe they didn’t choose the best words, but that’s how Venusians are: love is so important in this planet—not only love for others, but self-love too. In this situation, his friends cared more about him than they did for Bienna. They wanted him complete, self-assure; they wanted the old Atlas, the youthful one, the one who saw love in everyone, not just in one person and one place.

It’s been a year now, and even though he has grown thanks to what happened, he still doesn’t agree with Io. Atlas can’t help but know Bienna is the only one he will ever love completely, blindly, fearlessly. If that makes him delusional in their eyes, then so be it.

THEMIS REPORTS: 

While Atlas, Themis and Io were in charge of protecting/accompanying princess Bienna during her visit to Venus, the princess—for unknown reasons to Themis—was about to fall into a water fountain.

atlas x bienna x a lot of staring

[helloiamdaisy]

It’s all starting to get blurry now. My memory plays games with me and I can’t be sure if everything was as perfect as I remember. A part of me is sure that all those years are perfectly safe inside my head. Another part wishes it would just forget; forget the good but also forget the pain. And the tiniest side of me still sits by the window looking at the stars and tries to guess which one are you on.

[helloiamdaisy]

I’m all out of excuses. My destiny has changed, and there’s nothing to be done about it. It’s all lies and diplomacy from now on. I have a duty to care for millions of people. I answer to them. And they are telling me I can’t love you anymore.
