// AU where Jill is not taken to Rosaria and she doesn't meet Clive until they are both adults after Rosaria falls and she is the leader of the remnants of the Northern tribes who have been fighting to survive against the Blight and the Empire. She is the Dominant of Shiva. I feel like she would be a bit different (confident!) but still very much the same since I hc Jill was very very exposed to war in the north due to her saying she had gotten used to peace after living in Rosaria. Just a little thinky since she would not really like the Rosfields and would think they were all dead but then meet one and be like kinda feeling bad for him now that he's a Bearer but also your dad is a dick and I'm glad he's dead (because she would blame Rosaria for a lot of the bad things that happened to her family) lol. Anyway I am just having a thinky about an au where Jill is antagonistic to Clive at the start idk.

[icepenance]

Don't mind her! She doesn't know what rizz means but she's just glad she isn't a Rosfield right now.

THE KIDNAPPING DAY 유괴의 날 (2023)

@valistheanshield ♥

"Please tell me you had Tarja look at that cut on your arm." Jill frowned as she stared at Clive. She could not see beneath his sleeve, but on the field today he had been cut. She could do little for him but try to slow the bleeding until they returned. However, she noticed that it seemed as if he was about to leave again. She typically was not the sort to stand against someone in such a way, but she feared she may have to put her foot down. "If there is something that needs done, allow me to do it in your stead until you heal." 

[icepenance]

@flamesofrebirths ♥

"How are you feeling?" Since returning from Origin, Jill had spent much of her time trying to help the brothers heal. Clive was not in the best shape still. Barely waking, the Crystal's Curse afflicting him. She worried he would not recover. Mayhap she longed for Joshua to reassure her. To help ease her heart.

---

"Oh geez. The attackers just retreated."

"Idiots performing a full frontal attack on a fortress..."

"I'm not looking for some cheap reward."

"Your warfare is pitiful and I can't bear to watch."

"We will pave your way to victory."

"Guarantee a reward for me."

"Ooh. You're so scary."

"I saw no deception in his eyes."

"We've got to get over this mountain before the moon rises."

"Just as I thought. They're powerless to resist."

"You're a tough kid, know that? Are you hurt anywhere?"

"That was the deal. I'm not taking no for an answer."

"Can it wait right now?! We need to get out of here!"

"Look at all the treasure."

"You'd be dead in three days, you klutz."

"Bring out some good liquor."

"Do you really love gold that much?"

"So anyway... Can you be a witness for me?"

"There is a different way to correctly control any person."

"Hey, isn't he kind of cute?"

"... You've grown, haven't you? How old are you now?"

"Things don't come back to you as fast when you get old."

"This isn't some big mistake inside your head, is it?

"Oh right. Now I remember! He was the fool who gave in life in exchange for his kid's!"

"Can't get emotional in battle."

"He is bound by his pride and past."

"If I had to live without pride, I'd kill myself."

"What a pitiful sight!"

"Every man alive is a slave to something."

"I suppose it would be a waste of breath to tell you not to get back at them."

"Are you a slave too?"

"For some reason, you remind me of myself."

"I wouldn't know how it feels to be a slave."

"I couldn't... kill."

"Enjoy your life as a slave then. You deserve it."

"I can't afford to be optimistic."

"That looks painful. What is it? Whips?"

"He's a slave on the run."

"But I don't have anywhere else to go..."

"He's stopped breathing!"

"A chain is the only necklace suitable for a man."

"Only steel chains around the neck will turn a man into something useful."

"Don't make me chain you."

"I shall not stand for those who make light of the law."

"Only by chains can an outlaw join the ranks of good humans."

"Do you really think you have removed his chains?"

"You will be joining us in this battle."

"A long time ago, I made a living by killing men. But one day, I came to hate it."

"I grew tired of killing. Tired of death."

"The time has come for me to pay the price of all my actions."

"The sword is a tool to kill others."

"Who are you going to kill with this?"

"Who is your enemy?"

"You have no enemies. No one in the world is your enemy."

"There is no one you need to hurt."

"Does that mean he's going into battle alone?"

"As usual, your men have no class."

"They just don't like the Christians."

"I'm just in it for the money. Consider the job taken."

"I didn't realize you were strong enough to jest with me so."

"Tell me about your heroics, man!"

"Do you think they'll let us go if we surrender?"

"He's more than a monster..."

"Aha! Very perceptive!"

"I like guys with a good brain in their head."

"Forgive me. I cannot spare you the brunt of my might."

"You're a strong man. Strong enough to lead an army."

"The only reason I am forced to rely on this sword at all... Is because I am immature."

"A true warrior needs no blade."

"Learn to treasure your life a little."

"Men are all talk."

"Run."

"Why did you come here?! Didn't I tell you to run away?!"

"I don't fight for money. I fight for the killing."

"If we want to stand out, this is the place to do it."

"... Promise me a reward."

"Only those that work on the battlefield get what they want. That's the way of the warrior."

"My life won't come cheap."

"This lovely fool is mine!!"

"I'm willing to indulge this boy's wild suicide mission."

"Uhg. What a mess."

"Looks like they left you behind."

"Poor guy. And you tried so hard too."

"Ooh? Dead already?"

"Still got your will to fight, eh?"

"Oh dear... There he goes."

"My shoulder is dislocated. My right ankle sprained... And a few ribs broken, I'd say..."

"Blast him. Damned crazy madman!"

"If you can't walk, we're just going to leave you here."

"Insane rat-bastards...! What's so fun about all this battle stuff!?"

"I want you to forget about revenge."

"Do you think that will make me happy?"

"You're up early. The sun has yet to rise."

"Too noisy for you to sleep, eh?"

"...... Don't talk to me."

"Are you getting the wrong idea? I'm not one of you."

"You might think you're so clever, manipulating me. I'll let you keep thinking that way. Until the day I slit your throat."

"Hmph! Very scary."

"Time is on your side."

"You will grow older and I will grow old. One day, you will beat me."

"... This is a tedious story. What's your point?"

"So impatient, we are!"

"You ought to listen to this old man's words of wisdom."

"The world of man is slowly but surely... Growing elderly."

"Look, one of the great ironies. Dawn of the age of twilight."

"It's the twilight of all time. No use in letting it pass without a fight."

"They're madmen. Fools drunk on battle."

"I'm here to rescue you. I'll guide you out."

"A man's faster on his feet when he's unnerved."

"Love is the thing that gives all other things value."

"Pathetic. Are you really the same age as me?"

"What? Are you sulking? A big lump like you?"

"Say what it is you've got to say with your own mouth. Your tongue ain't cut out, is it?"

"I am not keeping my silence because I am a coward! I... I am being cautious, I must be cautious!"

"I... I'm different from you lot."

"I am a prince. I have my status to think of."

"Hpmh. Not bad for an excuse."

"I have never seen such an impudent knave!"

"Nobody has ever spoken to me like that!"

"Then it's a fine new experience, ain't it?"

"Shut up and sit down."

"Bah... It's started to snow."

"I can't do anything about the weather no matter how much you complain."

"I'll free you from your worries."

"If only the whole world was always at war."

"There is... No father that does not love his son."

"Do you always eat alone?

"Looks like the battle is over."

"Hmph... The stew's gone cold."

"Unhand me, you knaves! You dare defy my commands?!"

"I can tell what a man's like just by looking at his face."

"I have hated every single one of you. You're worth less than swine."

"Not bad, you whoresons."

"You can't die until I kill you!"

"Lay a single finger on him and I'll kill you!"

"Touch him and I'll kill you!"

"Your courage ain't bad."

"I don't know if you'll be in any condition to talk once I'm done teaching you your lesson."

"Are you telling me to live in this world alone?"

"Do you truly think I can survive?"

"Don't go... I love you."

"Now nobody who loved me remains on this earth."

"Death is that which completes man."

"Is there no love in the heart of man?"

"It seems that the battle has come to an end."

"I grow tired of this."

"I do not wish to see any more fruitless struggle."

"This fight has no meaning. Do not die for nothing."

"Didn't ask for your help. Look after your own wounds."

"Get away from me! Don't touch it!"

"Good. The sentries have gone away. Let's go."

"Damn it... How pathetic."

"Fuck off. I'll kill you, you bastard."

"I was hoping that you'd show a bit more guts."

"Are you wounded?! Are you alright?!"

"Are you in position to fight?"

"Are you shittin' me?! Do you have a death wish!?"

"You've grown to be quite the smartass in a short amount of time, haven't you?"

"God is probably watching us right now, as we speak."

"We will take back what has been taken from us."

"You had me scared shitless back there."

"I had to change. And now I have to change everything."

"If I ever see you on the battlefield, I'll kill you. Ally or not."

"You're smart and strong. I admire you."

"Aren't you lonely?"

"I wanted... to be your friend."

"Aye. You're my... only friend."

"Do you understand what I'm saying? The fight is over."

"Someone had to save her. Not a god. Not a hero. But somebody."

"After spending all that time in the middle of those bastards, I'd have happily killed all of them."

"I can't let that debt go unsettled."

"Bah... Bastard making me chase after him..."

"You're alive..! What a relief!"

"So... you are seeking revenge..."

"Everybody's obsessed with conspiracy bullshit."

"You're disgusting,"

"That's not the face of a true king."

"....? Screams...?"

"Is this the first time you've ever stabbed someone?"

"..... Well done."

"Stand up straight. This is a crucial moment."

"How could you act so stupidly reckless and get yourself stabbed, you idiot!?"

"Come on! Get up! We can get you fixed up later!"

"Cone closer so I can talk to you..."

"Just kill me."

"So kill me. After all, aren't we enemies?"

"Are you really going... to... die...? You're lying, right?"

".... Still looking down on me, you bastard..."

"I'll never forgive you! How dare you die on me like this!"

"What will you do with your life?"

"That's enough. It's time to move on."

// going to do starters this weekend. sorry. adjusting to some new life stuff

[aethersflood]

Since the moment we first met, you have always been an important part of me. The half that makes me whole. When times are darkest, you are my light. When I am lost, you are my guiding star. You are just what I need. You are all I need. You are the greatest gift.

[icepenance]

&& Default relationships Part 1/?

These are subject to change with rp partners and plotting!

»»————-　𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗦　————-««

Jill BARELY remembers her parents. Her family moved often, part of the ongoing war effort. She has few memories of her father. Those that she does have were happy. She often wishes she had gotten more time with them.

»»————-　𝗘𝗟𝗪𝗜𝗡 𝗥𝗢𝗦𝗙𝗜𝗘𝗟𝗗　————-««

Her relationship with the archduke was... complicated. She saw him as a good person. The way he treated those around him and his children made her believe that. Still, she was terrified of him. She knew his kindness could be revoked at any time. Even as young as she was, she understood her situation. Her family had been very open with how the Rosarian forces wanted them to submit or die.

She did not hate Elwin. She did not resent him. But she did not love him. He was not a father figure to her. She was thankful for his kind treatment, but he did not truly fill the hole her father had left.

She is truly saddened by his death.

»»————-　𝗔𝗡𝗔𝗕𝗘𝗟𝗟𝗔 𝗥𝗢𝗦𝗙𝗜𝗘𝗟𝗗　————-««

Again, it is VERY complicated. At first glance, Anabella was the picture of grace and elegance. While Jill had been very close with her mother, she wanted so badly to have a new mother figure in her life. She still could not connect with her, however. She felt like the other woman did not like her. But the thing that made her unable to get close to her was her treatment of Clive. I will get into him later, but she and Clive were VERY close. Seeing how she hurt Clive made her angry and sad. And it made her distrust Anabella. Even more once she began to hear people talk about her marriage prospects. As Jill got older, she began to fear (which she always had for every adult in Rosaria) and resent Anabella. Again, her treatment of Clive and the way she spoke about the North angered her. She often found herself avoiding the woman at all costs.

After she rejoined Clive and met Cid, her dislike of Anabella hit critical levels. Not only learning of her betrayal, but learning that she had enslaved Clive and made life worse for Bearers. Jill was angry. VERY angry. And she was ready to kill her when they met again.

»»————-　𝐂𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐅𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐃　————-««

Clive is... Jill's most treasured person. He was the first person to make her smile when she arrived in Rosaria. He was kind to her and showed her respect. He seemed to actually care about her to a degree. Jill quickly found him easy to hide behind. He was far more outgoing than her. She had never really been around people close to her age before. She found him charming and interesting. Jill got a HUGE crush on Clive when she was around 10. To the point of imagining him in her life forever. When she was 12, she used to have fantasies of him stealing her away from whatever suitors she was forced to engage with. He was her closest friend and the only person she trusted entirely.

When she learned of his death... She refused to believe it. That he and Joshua, her closest friends, were both killed in one night was awful. She hardly even had time to mourn them or process their deaths. When she was taken away by the Iron Kingdom, she honestly used to dream that Clive would come and rescue her. Until she got older and more jaded. He would still appear in her dreams to tell her she was disgusting.

When they met again, she tried so hard to be the girl he remembered. But she couldn't. She could not be open with him anymore. She was afraid of burdening him with her sins. While this eased up a tiny bit, she does tend to shift the conversation to him with things are brought up.

She does have romantic feelings for him by default. But she will likely never openly act on them. She loves Clive so much that she thinks he deserves someone with less baggage. Who is less emotionally withdrawn. Someone who could help him heal without requiring so much work. She is fine just being friends with him. She doesn't care what role he fills in her life, as long as he is with her. She would DIE for him. He is her favorite person.

»»————-　𝐉𝐎𝐒𝐇𝐔𝐀 𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐅𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐃　————-««

Joshua is her other favorite person. She quickly became overprotective of Joshua. She always wanted siblings and she quickly saw him as her little brother. He was certainly one of her best friends. She was often fussing over his health, but would also help him sneak out or disobey adults when he asked her to. Even if she was afraid. Joshua made Jill feel braver. She wanted to be able to protect him. She cared so much about him. And despite her only being a few years older than him, she felt like she was way more mature (as you do when you are a pre-teen) than him. Since he was so sheltered, Jill would often feel like she had to keep him safe.

She also felt bad for Joshua. Like they were similar. Neither of them got to choose their lives. He was never given the option to not be next in line for the throne, and she was a prisoner. Which is why she always tried to treat him exactly like a regular boy her age and not a royal or a dominant.

When she met Clive again, she hoped that Joshua was still alive. But of course, she believed he wasn't. The pain she felt of losing him was intense. Again, she hardly had time to mourn him.

When she did finally meet him again, she was incredibly worried. She knew how terrible the curse was. She knew Joshua was sickly. While she was confused and hurt that he never approached them after he rescued them 5 years ago, it didn't make her question his kindness or trustworthiness. She just wanted more time with her best friends. She wanted to reclaim some of what they had lost.

She wanted Joshua to be free. Unburdened by the Phoenix or the duchy. She wanted him to be able to be just Joshua. And she worried the entire time, that he only thought she cared about him for those things. Because she is poor with expressing her feelings, she worried he did not know how much she loved him.

»»————-　𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐆𝐀𝐋　————-««

He is her baby. Obviously, when they first brought Torgal home, she was taken with how cute he was. She adored him the instant she saw him. Jill was basically obsessed with him right away. While this very much is typical of someone getting a cute puppy, I think it may be deeper than that.

You see, Jill was a very lonely child. With the war, even in her very early years, she had little contact with others her age. Clive and Joshua were her first friends. But they were always going to be each other's priority. She knew that. And Jill had no family. So when she saw Torgal, she related to him. Away from his pack, all alone. Carried to an unfamiliar place. Jill wanted to be his family. She didn't want him to feel like she had. She wanted him to not be scared and to be happy and treasured.

Jill also felt a connection to him because he was also from the north, so it felt like there was a little bit of a connection to the same homeland. She literally spent so much time trying to train him and keeping him out of trouble. She was with this puppy basically 24/7.

So after she was taken, she obviously worried about Torgal. She had a feeling he had run after Clive. Which... she probably might have totally supported at the time. But I think she KNEW he was alive. We already know that Frost Wolves bond with Dominants. I think they could always feel each other. Even if she didn't know if it was just wishful thinking, she knew he was alive. And when she saw him again, she knew it was him.

//I'm gonna try again with a starter call for short starters with the potential to get longer.

[sanbrequoislily]

@icepenance

A hand had absent-mindedly been raised to the cheek of the former prince turned branded. How had he fallen so? How had his summers of being sat upon his father's lap, being praised and told how fine of a leader he would make ended in the very same flowers being gifted to him one final time-- as a poison embedded in his skin. He had not, the strength of Clive or the rest of the Cursebreakers to have it removed. His body was frail from overuse of Bahamut until he finally said there would be no more as he was afraid of dying from the Curse.

So lost in his own thoughts was Dion that he strode forth only to run directly into Jill on mistake. "My lady I--" He hung his head low in apology, less like a man and more still like a child afraid of being screamed at or struck. "The brand is a constant source of anguish for me, I apologize. I caught mine own reflection this morn in the waters, it has unsettled me." A shake of his head trying to change the conversation to something less somber.

"But, how are you faring, Jill?" Easier to speak of her than it was of himself and his own anguish even if it was quite some time ago that he saw his father or that witch of a woman he took as a wife last.

[icepenance]

Jill cursed herself silently as she crashed into Dion. Had she truly her her guard down so? It was not long ago that Jill found it hard to follow conversations, her attention always on who or what could potentially strike or grab her.

She automatically took hold of his arms to not only keep him a safer distance away after she stepped back from him, but also to steady him. They collision had not hurt her, but she was not as afflicted as he was. It was a small mercy that she had mostly only semi-primed.

"As it is for all, Dion." She had seen so many Bearers suffer. She had always related to them, even when she was a child. A prisoner to her fate, her future entirely up to others. And yet, she could not fully understand their plight. But she had seen it in Clive's eyes. She had seen it as they traveled together. Oh, how horribly aware she was. While she had also been a slave, a weapon... She could at least hide once she was away. "I am not hurt. Forgive me. I am typically more diligent. I fear I have let myself get too comfortable."

She releases his arms, keeping a bit of distance between them. She still did not like to be close to men. Even if she trusted that Dion was not the sort of vile man that she would need to remove the hands of.

"I'm quite alright." She loathed talking about herself. And so she choses not to. "What of you? Are you feeling well...? Considering...?"

[icepenance]

@creatrix-mea said: "For some reason, you remind me of myself." ( from ana. maybe to a young jill? )

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐮𝐞 - Accepting

Anxiety tore into the girl as the duchess approached. She had been behaving, had she not? She had been keeping up with her lessons and her chores. Still, Jill had the same dread fill her that always seemed to when adults approached her. Fear that she had been doing something wrong. She knew she did not belong here, and thus she always worried she would stumble. She knew some called her a savage. Some hated her presence. Even as young as she was, Jill was aware she was not like the others. Even if her memories of her home were brief. 

She bowed as the woman approached. Such was the proper response when your betters come near. And even as Jill had only been working on her needlework (her favorite lesson by far), she wondered if the woman had seen something that displeased her. of course, her words were beyond shocking. So much so that Jill did not know how to react. 

"I-is that so?" She asks softly. "Tis you that... that I have been watching, my lady. I would be honored to... be even a small measure as graceful."

"Say what it is you've got to say with your own mouth. Your tongue ain't cut out, is it?"

"I am not keeping my silence because I am a coward! I... I am being cautious, I must be cautious!"

"I... I'm different from you lot."

"I am a prince. I have my status to think of."

"Hpmh. Not bad for an excuse."

"I have never seen such an impudent knave!"

"Nobody has ever spoken to me like that!"

"Then it's a fine new experience, ain't it?"

"Shut up and sit down."

"Bah... It's started to snow."

"I can't do anything about the weather no matter how much you complain."

"I'll free you from your worries."

"If only the whole world was always at war."

"There is... No father that does not love his son."

"Do you always eat alone?

"Looks like the battle is over."

"Hmph... The stew's gone cold."

"Unhand me, you knaves! You dare defy my commands?!"

"I can tell what a man's like just by looking at his face."

"I have hated every single one of you. You're worth less than swine."

"Not bad, you whoresons."

"You can't die until I kill you!"

"Lay a single finger on him and I'll kill you!"

"Touch him and I'll kill you!"

"Your courage ain't bad."

"I don't know if you'll be in any condition to talk once I'm done teaching you your lesson."

"Are you telling me to live in this world alone?"

"Do you truly think I can survive?"

"Don't go... I love you."

"Now nobody who loved me remains on this earth."

"Death is that which completes man."

"Is there no love in the heart of man?"

"It seems that the battle has come to an end."

"I grow tired of this."

"I do not wish to see any more fruitless struggle."

"This fight has no meaning. Do not die for nothing."

"Didn't ask for your help. Look after your own wounds."

"Get away from me! Don't touch it!"

"Good. The sentries have gone away. Let's go."

"Damn it... How pathetic."

"Fuck off. I'll kill you, you bastard."

"I was hoping that you'd show a bit more guts."

"Are you wounded?! Are you alright?!"

"Are you in position to fight?"

"Are you shittin' me?! Do you have a death wish!?"

"You've grown to be quite the smartass in a short amount of time, haven't you?"

"God is probably watching us right now, as we speak."

"We will take back what has been taken from us."

"You had me scared shitless back there."

"I had to change. And now I have to change everything."

"If I ever see you on the battlefield, I'll kill you. Ally or not."

"You're smart and strong. I admire you."

"Aren't you lonely?"

"I wanted... to be your friend."

"Aye. You're my... only friend."

"Do you understand what I'm saying? The fight is over."

"Someone had to save her. Not a god. Not a hero. But somebody."

"After spending all that time in the middle of those bastards, I'd have happily killed all of them."

"I can't let that debt go unsettled."

"Bah... Bastard making me chase after him..."

"You're alive..! What a relief!"

"So... you are seeking revenge..."

"Everybody's obsessed with conspiracy bullshit."

"You're disgusting,"

"That's not the face of a true king."

"....? Screams...?"

"Is this the first time you've ever stabbed someone?"

"..... Well done."

"Stand up straight. This is a crucial moment."

"How could you act so stupidly reckless and get yourself stabbed, you idiot!?"

"Come on! Get up! We can get you fixed up later!"

"Cone closer so I can talk to you..."

"Just kill me."

"So kill me. After all, aren't we enemies?"

"Are you really going... to... die...? You're lying, right?"

".... Still looking down on me, you bastard..."

"I'll never forgive you! How dare you die on me like this!"

"What will you do with your life?"

"That's enough. It's time to move on."
