@jupatera cont. from x

There’s the worry in her voice… Aqua can’t do anything but smile and chuckle it off. She’s happy to see Rena’s powers not only growing but using new techniques. She didn’t expect to be caught off guard by the speed queen herself, but she is no less impressed.

Usually her reflexes would catch surprising attacks but the sole fact that this attack was new caught her completely off guard. In her captivated eyes, she took a shocking (heh) zap that sent her to the ground, finding difficulty just standing right back up from such a hit. While speed is Rena’s thing, her power is nothing to scoff at, and while Aqua herself has sustained many an injury, pain is pain, and being zapped is never fun.

All the same, she’d rather laugh it off and be proud of getting hit over being worried like Rena was. The whole point of their sparring is to see if she can land a hit and she did! Albeit unexpected, she can tell that it looked like a last ditch effort. She’s fast, but she can’t expend her magic forever with no fatigue. Her use of magic unfortunately does not compare to Aqua’s so this big burst meant it was an all or nothing before giving up.

Elrena is berating her for trying to sound cool, but her smile is beaming at her in joy. “We have to figure out how you can do that again and hone that! It really surprised me, haha.” As much as she disregards her injury, she knew continuing would upset the other, a small hand waving off the concern with another chuckle. “I promise, it really does look worse than it feels! It could’ve been worse, you could’ve cooked me into some meal, hah. I’m proud of your improvement, really. You landed a direct hit finally!”

Suddenly the air began to feel a lot warmer. If it wasn’t the boiling rage bubbling in Elrena’s body, it was possibly the blood rushing to her face and making her cheeks an unusually endearing shade of dark pink. It wasn’t often Elrena ever regretted attacking someone directly, and rarer was her apologizing for it. And the one time she does, Aqua is completely unbothered and doesn’t even hold her against it. By doing so, Elrena’s only show of humility was proven useless. 

Instead of celebrating this achievement alongside Aqua, Elrena crossed her arms, turned her face to the side, eyes shut and lips pouting outwards.

“Dunno what I was worrying about! I was holding back anyway, so there.” Alright enough of the act. Elrena sighed and would later try to rationalize her feelings. Instead she wanted to elaborate on something Aqua said, on how she could do it again. Though she didn’t change her stance, she spoke much more neutral and calm than previously, “Anyways... You know Leon? He said something about pulling off some super attack that could annihilate everyone in the room. That’s what went through my head when I used that. That give any ideas?”

[jupatera]

@impetuousheart​ asked:

Runs a hand down her side to rest on her hip, the other hand caressing her face [impetuousheart]

A sharp intake of breath. Elrena felt her lungs clench at the warmth around her. She anticipated it, longed for it; she’d rarely admit this yearning outside of their private conversations. It did not matter, he was the the one allowed to know. He was the one who deserved more than bared teeth and claws. 

With that, she exhaled, a calm surrender to the intimacy at play. Her hips and face moved in closer, greedily demanding to feel more, to close any space between their bodies.

“Need something, sweetheart? Or just admiring the art?”

[jupatera]

impetuousheart​:

“You poor thing, no computer. I hope you weren’t in the middle of something.” Another step and he puts a hand out, testing the surroundings and, without meaning to, the solidity of the wall directly beside him. He lets out a distressed noise and a quick apology before realizing that, no, the hard plaster was not in fact Elrena.

Nearly dying to a cat toy had gotten him turned around, it seems.

“What do you mean by can you hear me, anyways? I can still hear in the dark, Ellie. I don’t have a light, though. I left my phone somewhere.” Moving forward again, he slowly edged himself into the direction of the bedroom, trying to pick out shapes as his eyes began the process of adjusting to the dark. Said process being one that Andrey did not have any patience for.

Thankfully, from months of staying at her place, Andrey knew his way around pretty well, even in the dark. Cat toys aside, he could find his way to her easily. Probably.

“Hey, stand still. How scary do you think it will be if you hear me running towards you in the dark?”

If Andrey was like her cats and could see clearly in pitch black, he’d witness Elrena rolling her eyes. Woe be it to those who can’t read between the lines. The mechanisms of her mind were an enigma. 

“Hey stupid. I’m saying if you can’t see me then at least follow my voice!” Definitely not a difficult task, her voice was rarely at a low volume and now wouldn’t be an exception. 

Elrena was uncertain about moving from the area. It wouldn’t be of help for Andrey too, who was doing his darndest to navigate through a deathtrap of cat toys to trip over and worst of all -- cats. She was now leaning to what she believed to be a doorframe. 

Andrey was clearly jesting, yet it didn’t stop Elrena from giving a sardonic chuckle.

“Like I’m scared of a little darkness. Or what’s running around in it.” Her fingers twiddled absentmindedly, emitting sparks of electricity to illuminate her location, if not a few seconds. “I can handle it fine. But looks like you need more help.”

[jupatera]

impetuousheart​:

Batting at one of her hands playfully as it strays near his face due to her grand gestures, he gives her an over the top unimpressed look, whipping out his own phone as if to say watch this, sounding out as he types.

“How… do you milk… a dolphin. See?” Grinning triumphantly at his screen as he reads. “It’s just-”

Slowly, the look fades and is replaced by one of almost disbelief before dropping completely into stony-faced distress. Andrey sets his phone gently aside, screen down, before rubbing a hand across his face. Some words, he didn’t need to see put together.

“You’ve done this to me. I didn’t- wait.” Dropping his hand, he stares curiously at Elrena, almost hesitantly. “They breathe on land? They can’t walk or… no. No, never mind, I didn’t say that. I already knew that, I did.”

“Oh my god...” Elrena grimaced as an immediate reaction to Andrey actually looking up the godforsaken thing- because of course he would. But his hubris would soon be his downfall, and he was quick to pin the blame on her.

And that was it. She cracked. Elrena wasn’t sure if she was smiling out of discomfort or at the expense of the poor guy who will never unsee the things he saw. She erupted into a raspy, yet screechy cackle afterwards so it was mostly likely the latter.

“You idiot!” She exclaimed, gasping for air simultaneously. “I wasn’t even trying to bait you that time! Honest! You’re just a chump!” She managed to calm down, probably for the best lest she just rubs the wound deeper. “Andrey.. they’re mammals. That’s how they brea- How did you think they had milk in the first place?!”

@impetuousheart​

The storm was a surprise, having rolled in quickly while Andrey was stood in the kitchen making an early dinner. The sun was just beginning to set when the second surprise of the evening came.

Staring intently at a pot of boiling water, at first he didn’t realize it when the power went out, not until the utter lack of noise registered to him. The fading light from the windows allowed Andrey to just make out the miserable, half-cooked noodles still sticking out of the almost too small pot as he blinked hard, heaving a sigh.

“Ellie? Are you alright?” He called out, stepping out of the kitchen and directly onto a small cat toy, a jingling ball that left him flailing wildly as his foot slid out from under him. Righting himself, he called out again.

“Where are you at? I’m under attack out here.”

“Didn’t do it!” Elrena quickly sprung up from the bedroom, with a wide-eyed expression that one would call a look of guilt. Of course it was natural than whenever a weather-related power outage happened, the population of Radiant Garden would point their fingers at the lightning magic user. It was to be expected, but apparently not in this case. She came to the ironic realization that doing this made her appear even more culpable. 

Thankfully as soon as she said that, Andrey got himself into a bit of trouble. Seems like one of the cats left his toys in the middle of the walkway again. Messy little things they are. Despite the entire apartment enveloped in darkness and Andrey’s worried sounds, Elrena managed to collect herself again and tried to pretend her last exclamation didn’t happen.

“I’m right here, can you hear me? Also my computer just fuckin’ died.”

[jupatera]

thefatalmarksman​:

Her renewed focus was most definitely admirable, her speed and actual attentiveness to his advice a bonus—but would it be enough? For now, Xigbar simply allowed her the opportunity to strut her stuff, standing back a pace to observe her every movement with arms crossed and half-smile lopsided—though he couldn’t help but release a snicker at watching her struggle to get that knife out from its solid impalement into the wall.

This very moment would have been the perfect opportunity for him to make his move—sprint in quick across the arena and grab that extended arm, twist it behind her back and pin her there against the wall. Too easy—way too easy. And then she’d start squirming and whining against him, and then he’d—

…Okay, okay, no need to take the hypothetical too much further.

Instead, however, he waited in this very position, hip cocked and watching her with his single, intensely golden eye. Waiting until she’d reclaimed her weapon and her attention was turned back onto him. Once more, adopting a defensive stance, he waved her with a nonchalant hand to come at him.

“C’mon, now, pretty kitty, I’m waitin’ to be impressed.”

“Hmph.”

His arrogance was one thing, but oh if she could read the sinister thoughts of his mind. She would’ve shown him what a real twisted grin looks like, to engage in a little fun roughhousing if he desired so. Alas, Elrena was unaware of it, and this wasn’t a jolly playground.

Elrena simply did not charge at Xigbar. A kitten was she? Did he know despite their appearances, they were indeed an apex predator? No, no, no. Elrena could not run to him, she’d pounce him. She gave no warning, no indication that she was about to leap from the floor mid-stride; it all mattered if his instincts were faster than hers.

“Say that again, köpek.”

The vindictiveness in her voice could only match the side of the blade. He’d feel both, hopefully, if she knocked him over. For once, she might wipe off that ugly smirk.

[jupatera]

impetuousheart​:

“But where would you squeeze?” Andrey nearly reels back with the incredulity of his own words. “Cows have udders, what do dolphins have? There’s nothing there. There can’t be anything there.”

He makes a disgusted face, though still lighthearted in mood.

“I don’t want their wet, salty cheese. There’s only so many places it will come out of, and it won’t be the blowhole.” The name breaks his act, leaving him to fight back a smile and a sharp snort of barely concealed laughter.

Andrey was trying so hard to keep it together. Elrena almost pitied the man, for as multitalented he was, acting was not his forte. Had Luxord been around, he’d say some crap about a “poker face”, then Elrena quickly dismissed the thought because fuck Luxord and fuck his card metaphors. Now what was she talking about again? Oh yes, dolphin tits.

“Are you forgetting dolphins can breathe on land too? C’mon it’s not that hard!” At this point, Elrena was committed to her exaggerated hand gestures, such as her open palms pointed to what was clearly an invisible presentation of whatever ludicrous she spewed.

'If we can train fucking Flipper to do tricks and that silly water walk thing they always do, I’m sure we can get them to stay above water long enough to..”

Elrena’s words trailed off to a pause. Before finishing that sentence she pulled out her Gummiphone. Only a few taps and Elrena froze again, this time with a disconcerted expression on her face.

‘Uhh... yeah no. I am not having that on my search history.”

[jupatera]

@impetuousheart​ asked:

❝ It’s too late. The images are already in my mind and they will never, ever go away. ❞

“Oh stop being a child!” Elrena mustered her strength to look as stern as a temperamental guardian, but it was all a façade to keep herself together and not laugh.

‘You have cows back in your world don’t you? It’s the same concept! I’m just saying maybe if we domesticated dolphins we’d have more cheese!”

❝ You pity him because he’s you. ❞

❝ It’s all right, you know. Even you can be happy once in a while. It won’t kill you. But your face might crack if you smile, so be careful. ❞

❝ Can I get you something to eat or drink?  I have… water. ❞

❝ You know, a lot of the creatures down here aren’t very nice. Don’t they teach manners underground? ❞

❝ Something about this place is unsettling. It’s like… underwear that never quite sits right. ❞

❝ Oh, look at them! They’re like kittens… who want to eat you. ❞

❝ Looking for a ditch to lay face down in? I can recommend one. ❞

❝ Come on, haven’t you ever wanted to slap me? Just a little? ❞

❝ That would be a shame, wouldn’t it? Everyone deserves a good smiting now and then. I could use one right this minute. ❞

❝ Family’s not just the people you’re related to by blood. There are other people who care about you. ❞

❝ Sometimes, I miss being that selfish. ❞

❝ The past’s past. I learned that young. If it can’t bring you gold or giggles, what’s the point in dwelling on it? ❞

❝ I don’t know how you live the way you do, blithely ignoring the consequences of your actions. ❞

❝ Justice is an idea. It makes sense in a world of ideas, but not in our world. ❞

❝ The difference between whores and courtesans is… well, they have nicer shoes. ❞

❝ You see, men are only good for one thing. Women are good for six. ❞

❝ Why? Why do you say these things? ❞

❝ So what’s with that magical fisting thing you do? ❞

❝ It’s not about who’s dangerous. It’s about having choices made for you. ❞

❝ You seem especially broody today. ❞

❝ You sort of… swagger when you walk. I’ve been trying, but I trip over my own feet when I do it. ❞

❝ Pirates only care about a small number of very specific things: the sea, strong drink, and booty. Both kinds. ❞

❝ It’s frightening, isn’t it, to realize you have the potential to be a better person? ❞

❝ If they really want people to be good, shouldn’t they offer an afterlife with… lakes of wine and a dozen naked virgins? ❞

❝ There’s no way. Impossible! I’ve had hundreds of those in my hands, and they’re never that size. ❞

❝ It’s “friend-fiction!” I do it out of love. ❞

❝ What’s wrong with this place? Why don’t they have one decent regular lock to pick. No, it’s got to be all magic and blowy lights. ❞

❝ Try to do someone a favor and you end up trapped in a giant magical prison. There’s a lesson here. Next time you ask if I want to help with something, I’m going to say no. ❞

❝ Someday I’ll visit a place with no ancient evils, horrors, devouring plagues, or insanity. Maybe a beach. ❞

❝ Temporary insanity. A bout of foul morality. A horrifying fit of decency. It got better. ❞

❝ Your boots go on forever. I’d get so lost in them. I’ve dropped marbles in. They take an eternity to reach the bottom. ❞

❝ I’m helping you indulge in elaborate revenge fantasies. I think it’s good for you. ❞

❝ You know, it’s possible they’re just scared shitless of you. That’s my theory, anyway. ❞

❝ Once more I am falsely accused of whatever it is that I am accused of. Falsely. ❞

❝ Strange, I always thought I’d wind up arresting you some day. ❞

❝ Nobility is just an expensive lifestyle. I’ve already got one of those. ❞

❝ I’m a professional younger brother. Trust me, the center of attention’s the worst place to be. When things go wrong, and they always do, that’s where all the fingers point. ❞

❝ Friend, if your brooding were any more impressive, women would swoon as you passed. They’d have broody babies in your honor. ❞

❝ Opinions are like testicles. You kick them hard enough, doesn’t matter how many you got. ❞

❝ You never know. You might need to tie a package up, hang a lantern, dress a roast chicken. It’s multipurpose. ❞

❝ Does anybody else get the feeling that this is going to end badly? Just me huh? ❞

❝ Nobody said this was going to be happy story. ❞

❝ You can’t even pretend to be interesting, can you? ❞

❝ I wouldn’t normally say this, but—the shiny white armor? It works for you. Makes you look like a lacquered pilot whale. ❞

❝ You want help killing people like me. ❞

❝ It was never anything I had to work for. Other people always took the risks, to keep me free. ❞

❝ You’ve got a real chip on your shoulder, you know? ❞

❝ So we agree that it doesn’t take a demon for someone to be a vicious killer? Good. ❞

❝ Do not bare your heart to me, unless you would have me rip it out. ❞
