⸝⸝⸝ 🀥 Mantaspotrayals : independent multi-muse blog featuring both canon ( with hint of personal headcanons ) and original characters from fandoms such as: Dragon Age, Baldurs Gate, Critical Role and more .ᐟ Mun is friendly, dms and asks are open to mutuals.
IMPORTANT THREADS : [ MUSE LIST & RULES (PART 1] / [MUSE LIST] (PART 2)
FATE TOUCHED COMPANIONS : @inmemcrum ( Vex 🏹 ) , @whitestone-endures ( Multiple-muses ✨️ ), @droplct ( Katara 💧 ), @ceruleanbender ( Ila )
Soo... I have a big announcement for my fellow mutuals, basically I think I'm gonna leave this multi-muse blog for a while. I am having burn out and I don't think its fair for yall when you follow me to interact with other muses and I only want to write as like mere 5% of them
I will most likely:
1) Either make two multi-muse blogs (one centered on CR/VM other on ATLA/TLOK) | Most likely I won't do the 2nd one, I had been dismotivated
2) Few single muse blogs: For Vax'ildan, Keyleth, Jet, Mako, Gilmore
a bit small rant underneath
keyleth was almost positive she was dreaming. it was odd to think, really, that all of this was happening on a night like tonight. though she wasn't quite sure when else this would be happening and... she tried to push the endless thoughts out of her head. this was a moment she needed to just live in, to not worry about anything else around them. a soft laugh escaped her lips as he agreed with her words, nodding gently before they were kissing once again, holding onto vax however she could.
his next words, however, felt like cold water was being thrown onto her. not necessarily in a bad way, but in a way that she was suddenly very aware of what was happening, and that dreamy haze suddenly lifted. she'd dreamed of hearing those words from him, yes, but she instantly felt the importance of them and didn't quite know how to respond. and so she didn't, at least not yet, simply kissing him back with an intensity that echoed his words. a hand went to his chest, gripping onto the fabric of his tunic before she pulled away and looked into his eyes.
" vax .... " what was she supposed to say? what even felt right in this moment? " i'm pretty sure i've imagined this happening, like, five million different times and, you know ... i thought i had a pretty good imagination but i think the real thing is a lot better. " there was a soft, slightly nervous giggle as she tucked some hair behind her pointed ears and ducked her head for a moment before looking up to meet his gaze again with a soft smile.
Vax'ildan leaned back to take better look at her, her face... it was something that he could most likely stare for hours, he was so in love. Everything about her was just perfect. His fingers moving to gently land on her cheek, caressing the soft skin as he let out soft hum.
〝 I dreamed about it for a long time... was questioning if... beautiful, smart and strong woman like you would be even interesed in just a simple rogue... who hooked up alot in the past- I was kinda fearing I'm well... out of your league. 〞
He chuckled a little, oh how much he would just want to sneak with her somewhere just so that they could enjoy themselves... most likely knowing him it would be snuggling and kissing her through whole night because... gods he was so happy and content that they are feeling the same.
〝 My sister gonna kill me or you... or both of us. Most likely just me. You know how Vex'ahlia is even thought I would be blind to not notice how her and Percy look at each other. 〞
And totally didn't saw Percy sneaking into her tent before he started his night watch... yeah. His fingers now making their way towards her hair, gently going through them with a content sigh however there was one question what was now stuck in the back of his head and he kind of shyly asked.
〝 Are we... erm dating now .ᐣ I mean- Are we- do you-... do you want to be together .ᐣ 〞
Zuko’s jaw tightened, the flicker of fire in his gaze growing sharper. He took a measured step closer, voice calm but laced with controlled anger. “Curious?” he repeated, incredulous. “That’s what you call it? Making cruel, racist jokes about an entire people… mocking someone you claim to care about… and calling it curiosity?”
He let out a short, humorless laugh, shaking his head. “You don’t get to hide behind drunken curiosity, Jet. Ignorance isn’t an excuse for being hurtful. If you actually cared about Katara, you’d think before you spoke —because right now, all I see is someone who doesn’t understand respect, or the consequences of his words.”
He took another step closer, the heat in his eyes undeniable. “So yes, I'm angry. And no, you’re not just standing here being curious. You’re standing here being an idiot. And I won’t let you act like it’s harmless.”
〝 Oh fuck off, you snob ass .ᐟ 〞
Jet shoved Zuko away making a distance between them, huffing with annoyance now at the prince who was giving him lectures.
〝 You act like you never been drunk ever in your entire life, maybe you weren't... most likely you weren't. I was minding my own business, alone here and you came here to give me your stupid lectures. You know crap about me. 〞
He snarled, hand grabbing the barrel for support once more and if he was sober enough he would most likely initiate fight but at this drunken state he knew he would definitely lose. After few moments of silence he exhaled loudly, rubbing his face. It was visible that on his expression anger was changed into regret, regret of the words he spoke.
〝 Fucking hells... I am in fact an idiot. 〞
Zuko’s lips pressed into a thin, flat line, his patience thinning faster than molten metal in a cold stream. Jet’s mocking words weren’t just annoying—they were cruel, ignorant, and worse, they carried a bite of racism toward waterbenders.
He leaned slightly closer, his voice carried a dangerous heat underlining every word.
“Jet,” he said slowly, each word measured in warning, “you are testing the very limits of my restraint. Keep it up and I’ll make sure you regret saying it.” He straightened, eyes narrowing to slits, the heat in his gaze making it very clear that this was not a bluff.
“And trust me… I don’t care how drunk you are.”
Jet's brain failed to comprehend that he was threatened at the moment, his hand moving to rub his face trying to come a little to his senses but with no luck.
〝 Whatever, whatever... you think I am seriously scared of you .ᐣ 〞
He moved his legs off the barrel finally so that he could stand up at least try to stand up. Balance lost and he ended up grasping the barrel for support.
〝 I was just curiouss.... that's allll... 〞
Zuko’s golden eyes narrowed into a flat, unimpressed stare as Jet’s slurred words drifted through the air. He didn’t even bother disguising the way his brow furrowed deeper with every syllable that came out of the Freedom Fighter’s mouth.
“…You’re an idiot,” he said bluntly, arms crossing over his chest. “No wonder your little rebellion fell apart.”
For a beat, he stood there in silence, clearly debating whether Jet was worth the effort. Finally, he exhaled sharply through his nose, turning away.
“And don't ever say piss bending around me again.”
Jet huffed and furrowed his brows as he glanced at Zuko but he was too much into influence of whatever he had drank to like be seriously irritated at fire bender's presence.
〝 Ne ne ne ne. 〞
His hand closing and opening mimicking and mocking as the other spoke. Poor attempt at giving the prince a middle finger but instead of just pointing his pinkie finger, sticking his tongue out.
〝 I'm gonna say the word piss whenever I want, mister piss bender defender .ᐟ 〞
Jet had been acting a bit differently than usually, his legs resting on top of the barrel as the rest of his body resting on the grass as he stared at the clouds.
〝 Can waterbenders bend yellow snow or only normal snow... is it like.... 〞hic. 〝 forbidden magic ? 〞He groaned, rubbing his red flushed face from both something he had drunk and sun. 〝 pISS BENDING... 〞
in one moment keyleth was speaking, and then the next she felt as if everything around her had stopped the moment that vax's lips touched hers. the crackling of the fire stopped, the sound of the crickets and birds in the night seemed to go mute. for a moment, it was just them. this. whatever this was. just as she kissed back after the initial moment of shock, she felt him pull away. her eyes immediately moved to his lips as he spoke, feeling slightly entranced. as he apologized, her first instinct was to speak. but for once, she didn't follow her first instinct and instead she moved a hand to his cheek. a thumb brushed against the corner of his lips before she dropped her hand slightly and leaned forward to kiss him once more.
it was soft, the kiss lingering as she let her hand drop to his chest to rest there. she felt enveloped by him, his presence at the front of her and his cloak surrounding her. " you don't have to apologize. " the words left her lips after she pulled away just enough to rest her forehead against his. she wanted to lean down to rest her head against his shoulder, but she was painfully aware of her antlers in the way. instead, she pulled away just enough to look at him. there was a small hint of a smile that tugged at the corner of her lips. " we're not doing a very good job of keeping watch. "
it was a small attempt at humor, a slight giggle escaping her lips. she felt a bit giddy, truly. as if she was suddenly lighter, all of her problems and her worries about the day drifting away. keyleth kept close to vax, not daring to pull away too much. she could overthink everything tomorrow when she woke up, but for now, she'd let herself fall into whatever this was headfirst.
Vax'ildan practically melted into another kiss this time from her initiative. He was speechless for a longer time of period as she pulled away before he was the one to pull her gently closer towards him, practically almost pulling him to lean onto him that way that her antlers wouldn't poke him too much.
〝 You're right, we are horrible night watch. 〞
The half elf rogue chuckled pressing another kiss against her lips, being less anxious about it since she seemed to feel the same regarding of feelings towards him. The warmth of campfire, her warmth, the way how she felt pressed against him... he basically felt like he was dreaming and that when he wakes up next day their relation will go back to normal. Like there was no kiss happened earlier or that they held each other in arms so closely and intimate.
〝 I love you, Kiki... 〞
He whispered quietly against her kiss as he kissed her once more, he just wanted it to last forever... he kind of didn't wantes it to just end so quickly, he wanted to enjoy every peaceful moment they both had.
keyleth wasn't quite sure what to expect out of tonight. when agreeing to take watch with vax, she half expected to just be sitting in silence or just be talking about anything and everything in a very casual way. she didn't expect to feel as if her heart was beating out of her chest with every move that he made. she made a mental note to work out whatever feelings she had and at least have the strength to act normal around vax. but whatever progress she'd made in her mind around him was instantly gone when she felt him wrap his cloak around her shoulders. her heart felt like it leaped into her throat, the feeling only intensifying when she felt him take hold of her hand.
the nickname had her nervous to turn towards him. nervous to see what look would be on his face when she would turn to meet his eyes. look at me... please. his words had her taking in a breath. she thought about ignoring the words and getting up and walking away to calm herself down, but what would that really accomplish? she'd look at him tomorrow and then get embarrassed all over again and make their friendship or whatever was between them now even more awkward. " vax, " she began, looking down for a moment before looking towards him as he'd asked.
and at the sight of him so close, she swallowed in an attempt to calm the heat at her cheeks. despite her nerves, she squeezed his hand a bit and tried to look calm. she was fine. this was fine. " sorry, i, uhm... " a breath. her nerves weren't because of him, just from the unfamiliarity of all of this. " thank you for the cloak. " she was objectively not good at conversations like this. " won't you be cold? we can try to share. " there was probably some sort of smooth line that she could say, something along the lines of i'll keep you warm, if you need me or something of the sorts, but it was objectively very much not her speed, so she stayed silent for a moment.
she allowed herself to look at him then, the fire reflecting in his eyes ever so slightly and dancing along his dark hair. he looked... beautiful. there was really no other word for it.
〝 I'm fine... I'm fine... I'm surprisingly feeling hot- 〞
because of you. He wanted to add but hesitated, he felt his heart beat faster against his chest as he noticed how close they were as Keyleth turned her head towards him, His other hand moved to gently land on her cheek as he finally decided to lean it and press his lips against hers, gently so that if he would cross the line she could easily pull away from him but dear god... he prayed that she wouldn't pull away from him. Her lips were sweet, her warmth making him melt almost like he was made out of wax and melting underneath her burning presence. His hand which held hers, tightened his hold but not too much to don't hurt her.
He pulled away, just few inches back as his whole face was burning. He observed quietly her reaction for a while hoping he didn't screwed up his chances with her, that he didn't made her uncomfortable with his presence.
〝 I'm sorry I- I just...- you looked beautiful and... I mean I'm sorry for- Words- hard. 〞
Way to go Vax'ildan, you completely blew it with the way you just stutter over your words... great. He exhaled with annoyance at himself, why he cannot be smooth like he usually is. It feels like his brain turns into mush whenever he is talking to her.
"You’re all I think about when I shouldn’t." (for Jet)
His eyes slightly widened open as he was caught by surprise by her being quite much more forward than usual when they both interacted with each other. His surprise was replaced by his usual confidence, small hint of smirk appearing on his face.
〝 You're on my mind quite often too, you know .ᐣ 〞
It wasn't a lie at all, he moved slightly closer towards her, closing the distance but yet giving her enough space to feel comfortable.
〝 Now I'm curious what you had been thinking about.. maybe then I might tell you what I had been thinking about when it comes to you. 〞
Jet back leaned against the nearby tree, head leaned back as he glanced towards the sunset shortly. he was considering his next move, his little smirk not dissepearing, not even for a minute. He would be lying if he said that he didn't liked the fact that he had been on her mind. He liked having that effect on others but when it came to Katara .ᐣ It felt extra special for him.
for you. the words were not lost on her, and she swore that she was going to need to figure out a way to stay calm when it came to vax. it wasn't easy. it never was. and vax being..... well, vax, didn't help matters. he was always so smooth, his voice seemingly striking her somewhere deep and rooting itself within her. she took in a breath, her eyes shutting for a moment as she felt his hand brush against hers. this was crazy, wasn't it? allowing herself this closeness, despite the fact that she wanted it so desperately. " vax... " his name was barely spoken on her lips, the sound so quiet it was almost as if she could have just imagine she'd said it.
the touch was so brief to her hand, so gentle, that as he pulled away she swore she could have just simply imagined it. but it was real, she knew it was. especially as he apologized. keyleth took in a breath as he pulled away and she struggled to think of what to say to salvage the situation. " what? " she managed out, turning herself a bit more towards him. " you're... " a beat. a blush was deep on her cheeks, and she'd blame it on the heat of the fire if he were to point it out. " you, uhm .... " there was a pause then, looking down before moving to meet his gaze. " you can hold my hand if you want to. i mean, if that was what you're trying to do. " her blush deepened, if that was at all possible.
" i'm making this more awkward, aren't i? sorry. " she turned away from him and looked back to the fire. she tried to think of what to say to salvage the conversation, but she was positive that her awkwardness was ruining everything. the hand that vax had touched felt like it was stuck in a blaze of fire, and she savored the feeling. with that same hand, she moved to tuck some hair behind her pointed ear, letting the heat of the fire continue to wash over her.
Vax'ildan felt himself shudder slightly not due to the cold temperature but the way he heard her saying his name, his blush now reached to his pointy ears as he felt himself getting more embarassed... he could flirt with anyone smoothly, so easy but when it came to Keyleth it suddenly became hard for him. His brain cursed at him, trying to tell him to just go for it. She gave him permission, he could hear how her heart beated to fast in his close proximity... just like his.
Fuck it. The half elf decided to make a move, shrugging off his cloak off him just a little before gently wrapping it around her frame. He knew that she most likely didn't felt that much cold but he still wanted to make sure... his trembling hand slowly moved to take hold of hers, his touch gentle, fingers sliding right between hers.
〝 Kiki... 〞
He exhaled softly, shuffling closer. He tried to consider what to say next. He was afraid of what he was allowed to do or what he wasn't allowed to.
〝 Kiki... look at me... please. 〞
Vax'ildan didn't even realized that his face most likely inched to closer that most likely when she gonna turn her face towards him their faces gonna be dangerously close to each others. He couldn't help it, there was something about it.
@mantaspotrayals asked: [ lean ] sender slowly leans into receiver's shoulder and rests there for a while ( From Vax'ildan to Keyleth )
it had been a long day. everyone else in camp was either sneaking away to the nearby town to grab some ale or already sleeping in their makeshift camp. they would have stayed in town, but of course, vex being vex, didn't trust the townspeople and would rather save their money and stay out where they didn't have to watch their backs as much. keyleth wouldn't disagree, really -- she trusted nature more than a shady room at a tavern. her and vax had been sitting together in a comfortable silence, the fire in front of them crackling to fill the quiet in the air. but as she felt his head move to lean against her shoulder, keyleth felt her heart beat a bit faster in her chest. she prayed to whatever god was listening that he wouldn't notice.
they were all tired, she told herself. she was just... a comfortable arm for him to rest on. keyleth played with the hem of her shirt as she looked into the fire as she tried to think of what to say. suddenly, the silence did not feel comfortable and she was itching to say something. but maybe to vax, he was fine just simply resting here and saying nothing. however, her instinct was to now break the silence.
" tired, huh? " her voice was meant to sound casual, but it sounded a little bit sarcastic and playful. she really needed to learn to not speak sometimes. she'd work on that.
taking in a breath, she let herself relax. " thanks for saving me today. again. i think i need to start being the chivalrous one instead sometimes. "
Vax'ildan suddenly felt himself leaning his head on her shoulder, his arms folded over in front himself as he just melted into her warmth. There was something within himself which found comfort in being close to her, his eyes slightly closing as his body was preparing to take just a small nap, giving up to slumber just for a brief moment until he heard her voice. Head slowly lifting up and tilting.
〝 A little... long day... 〞
Speaking in quiet whisper, his hot breath hitting her skin. His brain didn't processing that he was so close to her, he was just too exhausted and he would blame himself for taking this watch now when he knew he would fall asleep, mostly because of her warm and welcoming presence. His eyes opened fully as he heard her next sentence.
〝 I would do that again if that ever happened again... for you. 〞
The last part whispered very quietly. His hand sliding closer towards her, the back of his palm brushing against hers as he still kept his head on top her shoulder. His brain slowly realizing how close he was to her. They haven't been close like that towards each other, yes there were slight touches there and there but nothing anything serious... his sister would probably give him lecture if she saw him with Keyleth that close... something about 'vines having thorns' but if that rose has thorns he would let them dig into his hands as he would held onto her tenderly.
And in the next moment Vax'ildan fully snapped out, he was enjoying her presence too much as his thoughts drifted into daydreaming about her. He moved his head away from her shoulder, embarassed and his hand darted away.
〝 I-I-I'm sorry .ᐟ I should definitelly ask first, sorry... 〞
you can't keep putting yourself through shit like this and expect me to just sit back and watch.
( From Vax'ildan to Keyleth. )
Keyleth's gaze lingers upon her hands, resting them within her lap. Vax's words seemed to cut something deep within the Ashari elf, making the redhead think things through - think of what exactly she was doing.
It was almost as if it were a habit of hers.
"Vax..." The name leaves her lips in a whisper, her gaze locked onto her hands as she ponders her next words. She could very simply tell him that he could take a step back, let her be what she needed to be and accept the fact that she, too, could very well protect herself when it came down to it.
Or, she could give him some things to throw him off.
Taking a breath Keyleth lifts her head, emotions swirling within green pools as her gaze locks on to the brunette. "You're well within your right to be worried." She starts, lips quirking into a soft smile of assurance, "But, I have to be able to hold my own. To fight back if need be. I can't let you always..."
The half-elf lets the sentence drop off, her head tilting a moment "I can't let you always take the step and protect me." It was an absolutely trying notion. To be the one to take the reigns and stand up for her team when time called for it, it was absolutely terrifying to imagine for Keyleth.
But it was the love she held for Vax'ildan that only solidified her decision. They were like two peas in a pod, weren't they?
"Don't you think that may be, this goes both ways?"
prompt | @mantaspotrayals
Vax'ildan's heart ached, his brows furrowed as he stood in other corner of her room. He came there frustrated, upset and mad... mostly blaming himself that in moments where he was helpless, out of reach to help her... like at that moment where Raishan turned her body into nothing but ashes, he was ready to follow right after her and be turned into nothing but dust as well.
〝 Kiki... 〞
He knew she was right but he didn't knew if he would survive if it would happen again right in front of his eyes. He slowly made his approach towards her as he was considering his next words, crouching down right in front of woman he dearly loved.
〝 I don't want one day see you going into matron's domain, I seen it happen already... I don't want to do this. I can't handle imagining this. 〞
He meant this, he didn't wanted her to haunt him in afterlife alongside other souls. He doesn't want to see her slip away from his grasp into his goddess'. He knew that he would beg constantly, he would do everything to bring her back even if it would be standing up against Raven Queen. His hands took gently her hand, holding it tightly but not too tight, his gaze averting from hers at her last sentence. His gaze darted towards his wrist, reminder the consequenses of what had happened when he brought back Percy, the rotting decaying skin right underneath his armor which he was hiding from everyone.
〝 You're right... I just... I can't imagine life without you, just promise you will be as careful as you can... alright .ᐣ 〞
“Were you just staring at me?” / cue an aware keyleth questioning Vax.
Was he once again staring at her with adoration he does when she is around .ᐣ Most definitely... he had been acting like that more often recently, any thoughts suddenly all turned towards the ones centered around her. Everything about her was just perfect, her hair like flames, freckles decorating her face, her green like leaves eyes, her soothing voice which caused his heart beat faster. He was questioning sometimes if a masterpiece like her had any flaws because in his eyes she was flawless... stunning. He was watching how she was taking care of flowers, his gaze locked on hers as his side was pressed against the tree. He felt like that it was blessing to just be in her presence, his thoughts were mostly about of how nice it would be to take her soft hands into his, how he would most likely melt if their lips would press against each other, to hear her say his name so sweetly.
He snapped quickly from his thoughts as he heard Keyleth's voice, his eyes widened open and quickly he averted his gaze, coughing in his fist nervously.
〝 M-Me .ᐣ Staring .ᐣ not at all. 〞
He said, stuttering slightly as his cheeks heated up.
sender kisses receiver's temple. / vex to Percy. <3
Percival was talking once again about what he had been working on, some inventions what were still in process of finishing. What he didn't expected was feeling Vex'ahlia's lips against his skin, right at the side of his head. He lost his train of thoughts suddenly, snapping back to the reality as his cheeks heated up slightly.
〝 I was trying to fix this certain part in Diplomacy, it keeps jagging in important moments and it was becoming more annoying. I was thinking maybe if I...- erm... 〞
His eyes now focused on her, his hands playing with a small piece mostly to ease his sudden nerves due to rather intimate gesture coming out from the half elf.
〝 Is there any special occassion for that .ᐣ I haven't forgotten anything... have I .ᐣ 〞
Mako loml
Dating.
That single simple word sends his heart aflutter again. Shaun could have anyone here, someone that is around all the time, but he wants him. He doesn't care that Vax'ildan is always on some quest, rather random or part of a bigger picture.
There's something about that, that means everything to the rogue.
"We can't date. Not until....." Vax trails off but he does not give Gil long to be disappointed or think over his words before he's gently grabbing Gil's chin with forefinger and thumb to guide his face closer so that Vax can press his lips to Shaun's.
Shaun felt his heart shatter at the first three words, of course he probably should have expected it... maybe all they had been was just a fleeting temporary romance and sorcerer stupidly fell for it too hard even thought he knew on what he agreed. He was confused as Vax continued his sentence and then felt half elf's lips against his own, confused at first to return the affection for a longer moment. Those are very much mixed signals, however after a while he would return the kiss, pressing his lips eagerly against rogue's as his hands moved to gently cup other's face.
If the rogue wanted to stay on the terms they are on, he would agree... if he wouldn't want to be anything else and wouldn't want to date at the moment, even thought it pained Shaun for a long while... he had been craving to call Vax his for long, almost felt like eternity. He slowly broke their kiss and whispered.
〝 I get it, protector of the realm's duties. 〞
