@fatalruin .
Been too long since he’d last lain eyes on her. She was family to him; but had that been another lifetime? Are things too different now? —– The very sight of her brings little expression generally devoid of sharing too much. Though, it’s his eyes that betray him as they soften the moment she comes into view. It’s the eyes that tell the story of a man who has missed her very much. But he makes no move to embrace her; makes no attempt to fall into their childish play fights as they would do in childhood. ( Though if they had right now, there’s no doubt she would kick his ass with ease. ) There’s a sack in hand that is gently set down; within it are special plants he’d searched for at Nyko’s request. He’ll just have to give them to him when not currently facing the commander who stands but a few feet away. ❝ What brings you all the way from Polis, Heda? ❞
maybe a childish wish to run towards him & throw herself into his arms . knows he’d catch her if she did . a trust between them that had been built ever since she had been a child , following him around . but they have grown out of those sentiments now : would be frowned upon . could no longer sneek away from her duty & learn from him . learn to heal , where now , it feels like she only knows how to shed blood . tries tho . to make peace . hard , when it’s an uphill battle with everyone she encounters . hands fold behind her back as he comes into view : and she keeps to a small nod of her head in greeting . ❛ meetings . ❜ and you . head turns to give the two guard practically hovering above her a nod for them to walk ahead & when they are out of hearing range : she steps a little closer looking up at him , small motion of her hand to the pack he let go of not long ago . ❛ you still collect for nyko ? ❜
LEXA APPRECIATION WEEK
Day 5 (Lexa + Colors)
* ANYA KOM TRIKRU .
@praesaes· / ruthlesscommand ▸ prompt ▸ accepting. ──── ❛ i’m used to it. ❜ lexa to anya
❝ Heda, ❞ head bows out of respect and she’s careful with her choice words. ❝ Our people want revenge against the invaders. They’ve killed our own. ❞ Their lack ofaction is leaving some within their clan uneasy. Are they not the same who live by blood must have blood? Or has things changed as their commander continues to show a soft spot with the leader of Skaikru. ❝ They start to question. ❞
To which she’s most surprised by the nonchalance behind Lexa’s forward response. If this is known already, then she has nothing further to say.
used to it , because it has happened ever since the conclave . second guessed because she never truly won . and for a while , it had made her doubt herself . but she had learned to deal with it & had managed to do what nobody before her had . slowly earning her spot as heda . breath is exhaled softly as gaze shift up to her former mentor : chin lift ever so little . ❛ you don’t think i know that ? ❜ chews on nothing for a second as hands fold behind her back : brows tug together . skaikru could never be their allie , not after what they had done to her people . burned down a village , tortured and killed . taken land that did not belong to them . and for that , there will be justice . but if they could help in taking down the mountain ? their greatest enemy ? should she not at least look into it ? hear what they have to say , before wiping them out . ❛ the mountain has been our enemy for as long as any of us can remember . taking people every day . should we not at least try to stop it ? ❜
you asked me once: “what is a soldier without a battle to fight?”
i trembled at the thought– you knew me as a soldier, and you shook me to the core as you questioned my foundation.
i answered quicker than i thought. “lost,” i said. it is what i knew.
i have asked myself: “what is a soldier without a battle to fight?”
i still tremble, yet my answer comes slower.
“as long as i live, i am fighting.”
it is what i know.
* LUNA KOM FLOUKRU .
she remembers well how titus tried to divide them. and perhaps it was a little too easy. who really wants to get attached to a friend who could be their enemy overnight? but they always had understanding between them. even now luna can feel that pull once more. she sees a mirror image of herself. perhaps what might have been if she had not run from the conclave. she knows the other woman desires similar things. even if it varies greatly from luna’s own philosophies. then again, hers is simply believing the clans are too far gone in their love for violence to be changed. lexa is trying to make it happen anyway. perhaps it is madness. perhaps it is greatness. only time will tell. dark hues shift away a moment as she contemplates her words. their childhood was nothing but darkness and blood. luna does not wish that upon any child. gaze flickers back up towards lexa “ as long as children are stolen from their families and forced to murder each other in the name of a woman who has been dead for centuries, i don’t see how that’s possible. ”
there are things in this world she can’t even begin to change . but she wants to make a start , try to make this a better world for those who comes after them . [ the mountain is gone & it is a begining , but she knows war is not far away . ] and for someone so young , she is starting to get awfully tired . war is all she knows . between clans , between people , violence & bloodshed . even at her own hand , in the name of survival . in the name of justice . in the name of betrayal . because she simply did not trust them . gaze stay on luna : smallest of ticks of her jaw when she speak . ❛ i tend to set realistic goals . ❜ could have carried resentment for this woman . [ would have been easy . ] she ran & in traditional belief , it was a cowards move . titus had made sure for her to never forget it , especially since luna was his favorit before the conclave . second guessed every move , every word she had ever uttered , tried to mold her to his every whims . made it easy for others to do the same . but if she knew what she knows today , she would have run too . gotten away . chin lifts ever so little , single brow raise . ❛ titus is dead . there could be some changes possible . ❜
MEME PROMPT : 💬

i also feel that i am supposed to feel something but forget what

MEME PROMPT : CAN I KISS YOU ?
always looks for a way of manipulation from those around her . terrible to say she is used to people going behind her back . used to be manipulated into seeing things a certain way & finding out people she cares for [ people she trust . ] has done something she did not agree to . did not allow . went against her views and wishes . against her commands . but raven ? if anything : she has learned that the woman infront of her is a straight shooter . doesn’t hesitate in telling things how they are , doesn’t try to wrangle a situation in her way without giving a why . forest gaze fleet from war table & over to the other : only now realizing how close they are . can drink in her beauty at close range , and she doesn’t even try to stop herself . turns more towards her & rolls up to the ball of her feet , hand reaching up to cup side of her face as lips brush against raven’s .

* BELLAMY BLAKE .
“ you’re the commander . last i checked, you’re the one who makes the rules. ” [ you ordered the grounders to attack our ship, killing dozens of children. you tortured my people. we tried to help you, and you abandoned us. ] “ if you really care about clarke, you’ll order the ice queen to STAND DOWN . otherwise how do i know you’re not having her delivered to polis just so you can kill her and ‘ take her power ’ yourself ? ” they’re not on equal footing and it would do bellamy well to remember that, but he’s tired of bowing to people who want him dead. he suffered under the ark for too long ; when the time came to sacrifice the few to save the many , he was always the few. his people were expendable. he’d like to see kane with a mop in hand, cleaning up some drunk alpha station dad’s vomit. ( he has yet to realize that on the ground, he is one of the privileged. his leadership, age, and experience has allowed him more power than it should. ) after attacking the dropship, lexa should know that mass is no match against the ark’s technology. if she won’t willingly return clarke to her people, bellamy will take her by force ( because she must want to come back … she has to. she chose to leave, but she’s just a kid. she made a mistake and now she’s being hunted for sport … she deserves the chance to come home. to be safe. to live. )
there’s a tension . unresolved & festering on his side . the resentment the boy holds is something she deems childish . the past has nothing to do with the present . perhaps young when they landed on her land : but she had been younger when taking command . her people the same age when they had finished their training & had earned their place as warriors . they had started a war : then demanded peace . action always had consequence . didn’t matter what your age was . what he fails to understand , they don’t play by his people’s rules here . but her people’s . so there is hint of a smile at lips as he speaks . clearly not taken his sisters interest in learning about their traditions . how they do things . things had always been fragile , and now that the mountain is gone , there was nothing holding them together . not truly . nia using clarke to raly for war does not come as a surprise . she is simply trying to nip it in the bud . ❛ you misunderstand . ❜ voice is leveled as dark gaze stay upon bellamy . clarke had barely been an ally after she killed finn . disregarding traditions . again . and continued to do so . but letting the power of death fall into the queen of azgeda’s hands could not stand . not now . ❛ if it was not for her title , i could really not care less where she ventured or if she came back to you . ❜ for now , it’s keeping her away from the ice queen & then figure out where to go from there . ❛ i have no interest in taking wanheda’s life , bellamy . when she gets here , she will be handed over to you and your people and it will be your responsibility to keep her safe . fail , and we are at war . ❜
also the fact that the delinquents were kids doesn’t carry weight in lexa’s eyes . . . they were the age , many of the earth born kids are done training . or soon finished . they were the age lexa took command , some even older . if they had simply landed in trikru land , i think the conversation with anya would have taken a whole different turn . [ and anya even tried explaining their poinst of view . ] they burned down a village , they tortured one of her people . . . they come from different worlds , and the one the delinquents landed in , being a child doesn’t give you free pass for shit . your action , your responsibility .
ok correct me if i’m wrong , but the earth born did not actively attack the delinquents before lagos was burned down or ?
Here’s a question for your soul; How many times can a broken thing break? And the Gods whispered: Let’s see, shall we?
