Things have fallen quiet...

Honestly, this blog is kind of dead. I haven’t had a thread in nearly 2 months, and I’m more focusing on discord these days.

THAT SAID THIS BLOG IS NOT GOING AWAY.

It’s just...silent.

I’m still around. Still open for interaction. But things have slowed down to a point where things have stagnated.

“Hey!“ Ares gasped and reached out to gently grab her outstretched hand. For a moment, it looked like he was going to hug her in an attempt to comfort her, but stopped himself at the last minute… he never really knew how to act in front of someone who was crying.

“Slow down, what’re ya talkin’ about?“ He said softly. She was talking about a promise? Why did that tug on something in the back of his mind? Was it something he should remember?

“Ruby…“ He repeated gently, “What promise?“

“I...I promised I would protect you.” She managed to spurt out after a second. “That I would watch over you, that I would ensure your soul is cared for and I...”

She huffed, brushing a tear from her eye. She was normally so aloof. Quick with a joke or light tease. She didn’t cry in front of others like this, it wasn’t in her nature.

“But the moment after you passed away, something pulled your soul from my grasp.” She tried to explain again. “I held you in my hands. I felt you ripped away from me like a toy from a child. And before I could pursue you, I was pulled back to the present.” She leaned forward, planting her head in his chest as she tried to hold back another wave of tears. “I broke my promise. I broke my promise to you.”

What could he say to that? He didn’t die a very ‘pretty’ death. He tried to find the words, but all he found was a sudden impulse to hug her and say he was sorry.

He actually slightly raised his arms, but then let them fall, and looked down at the ground, “O-Oh…”

Ares closed his eyes for a second, and then looked up at Ruby, “Yeah… sorry about that. Guess that secret’s outta the bag huh?“ What kind of explanation was that? Even he knew he wouldn’t be happy if someone had given him that answer… but he struggled to find the words.

How did one explain that they’ve been reincarnated into a whole new universe like that? She’d probably think he was crazy or something.

“I...I’m sorry.” She coughed out. “I failed you. Failed my duty as a Valkyrie.” She was quite torn up about it too it would seem.

“I had you in my hands,” She explained, holding her palm outward as if reliving the memory. “I had you, held you, promised I would take to the cycle myself but...Something pulled you from my grasp. I struggled so hard to keep hold, but something pushed me away, something powerful something I...”

Tears were forming in the Valkyries eyes as she began to sob. “I’m sorry I broke my promise.”

“Oh…“ was all he could bring himself to say. He had not been expecting that.

For a moment, Ares broke eye contact with her, and looked down at the ground. Even he barely remembered his ‘death’ anymore, other than the vague images thinking about it brought up. He remembered he had been in pain, and he swore he could still remember the feel of the cold cement under him as he bled out onto it… and well, he remembered his girlfriend leaning over him with a tear-stained face… but time had faded her features. He couldn’t remember what her face looked like, or even… if it really was her, or if he had hallucinated it all near the end.

He sucked in a deep breath, and looked back up at her, “Uh… how? I mean… sorry? I mean… uh…” Words wouldn’t come to him. He just looked up at Ruby as if he could find the words on her face.

Oh yeah, awkward was one way to put it.

“The Astral Plane.” Ruby shifted her wings at her sides awkwardly. “It’s...Position between reality itself means that, sometimes, odd things can happen. Like, say, a rift in time opens under your bed and you fall through into the past.”

She gave a lighthearted shrug. It was the truth. Didn’t make it any less graceful though.

“I...Wasn’t sure what to expect when I awoke in some sort of tower. But I felt a familiar presence.” She reached out, hand to his chest. “All souls are as unique as snowflakes. No two are the same.” An oddly familiar pulse of energy washed through Ares.

“I found you.”

"Hey, Ares." His shadow shifted as Ruby emerged from the darkness. "I...Need to talk with you." Normally Ruby was very upbeat and outgoing. She was being oddly sensitive with her manners today though. She even avoided direct eye contact with him. Something must be wrong.

Ares nearly yelped, and stumbled backwards a few steps as his shadow changed, and then fell back on his rear. The moment he saw it was Ruby though, he calmed down a bit.

"R-Ruby?!" He gasped, "Ya scared the crap outta me!"

Hi expression changed from surprised to worried though as he heard her speak, and suddenly he had a bad feeling. He raised one of his hands as if he was going to reach out from her, but then slowly recoiled it and rested it on the ground beside him instead, "Uh, yeah? I mean... what's wrong? Everythin' okay?"

“I...Uh...”

How could she put this delicately? That she went to the past and watched his previous incarnation die? No, she’d sound crazy. Well, she was known to embellish the truth but this was just weird.

After a few seconds of silence, she finally cleared her throat.

“I...I watched...That is...” She took a deep breath. “I found your previous self in his final moments.”

Oh yeah. Not awkward at all.

Ares walks up and attempts to pat Ruby on the head with a hesitant hand.

Ruby tilted her head slightly at the odd advance Ares displayed. But she was familiar enough with the idea of "pets" so she all but dove into his chest for "pets."

She smiled at him. "Why do you hesitate? Come on, Ares. You know me well enough by now right?"

Dave smiled gently. Giving the Silvally girl a gentle stroke on the head.

“Shes doing okay. She’s just been busy doing her own thing.” He reassured her. “I’ll tell her you asked for her. She would be happy to see you. But hush now, sleep.” He encouraged as he tucked her to bed.

He used his magic to wrap her nice abd snug, but not too tight. Then smiled as he left her be to sleep.

Tenebre shifted under the covers as he wrapped her up. She’d never experianced something like this before, so it was a bit of an odd experience. She fell asleep within minutes, and for the first time in a month, actually rested.

Several hours later, she rose from her slumber. Her mane was spread all over the place, like a bad case of “bed head” on steroids. She was still woozy and unsteady as she tried to shuffle off the bed, only to get caught in the sheets and fell to the floor with a loud THUD!

A morning person she was not.

dimensionhoppinghybrids:

Seeing that she liked it, Dave kept petting Tenebre’s head a bit before nodding. “Agreed.” He said with a nod. He was sure Shin could find her way back. She was a smart woman after all. So, to be the gentleman (and grandpa) he was. He gently led Tenebre to where her room was.

“Come now my dear, I’ll make sure you get a nice and toasty bed before we arrive.” He said in an encouraging tone. Sending out a messenger for that, as it would take them a while.

And indeed, when she did get into the bed in the rather cozy guest room. It was warmed up for her and nice and toasty.

The things that a proper motivation could do!

The moment she entered the room, after briefly gazing in awe at the decor, Tenebre crawled onto the bed and curled up. The warmth felt so soothing she wanted to stay forever.

She could finally relax.

Her mind began to drift.

“Is...Felicity doing ok?” She asked after a moment of silence. She remembered meeting the young Silvally once. She was curious as to how Dave apparently constructed her on his own, but didn’t press further than that with her.

This was also the first time she’d asked after someone else other than her brother for the first time in a month.

Dave gave that topic a thoughtful look and nodded. “Later. When we’ve all sufficiently rested, and maybe eaten, hm?“ He asked and gently patted Tenebre’s head. “We’re all a bit tired.” He said as he smiled.

“But yes, I would like to help. Perhaps we can make a few improvements?” He offered to Shinzora. You never knew with tech, you could always do something better.

Tenebre leaned into the hand gently, silently asking for more attention.

Shinzora nodded. “I’m always open to ideas. What mage worth their salt would turn down such an offer?” She shrugged. “But you’re right. We’re all due for some rest.” She looked at Tenebre. “Some more than others.”

dimensionhoppinghybrids:

Dave could see that Tenebre was on her last legs, and he gently offered her a shoulder to lean on, and gently patted her shoulder.

“If your mother allows it, I don’t see why not.” He said as he looked to Shinzora. It was her call if Tenebre was allowed to stay or not. If not, he would help them home. It was the least he could do.

Shinzora nodded again, glad Dave asked for permission first before offering outright. “You’re welcome to stay.” She said, her voice cracking again briefly making her blush. She cleared her throat before continuing. “If possible, I’d like your help with a project later. Ben’s Evoker, the item that let him change form, was broken in the attack. It’ll need replacing, and I’m short on supplies since the shop...Well, was the only casualty in this ordeal.”

dimensionhoppinghybrids:

Dave had waited for them to talk. Waited for them to finish.

He sat in a chair just a few doors away, far enough that he could be summoned, but not far enough to eavesdrop on the trio as they talked.

While they talked, he busied himself with a bit of paperwork that he was lacking. There was always something to do, and in this case, it helped to take his mind off of things.

His head snapped up though when he was told that visiting hours were over, the same message that Shinzora and Tenebre would get once the nurse came inside.

When he saw the two come out, he stood up.

“I wanted to ask you this, but would you prefer to stay the night in a guest room?” He asked Shinzora. “It wouldn’t be an issue. I can relate to how you might want to stay nearby for a while.” He said to her in earnest.

Shinzora smiled but shook her head. “Sadly I still have some work to do back home. Connecting here shook up more stuff, so I have to take care of that.”

Tenebre looked over her shoulder at Ben, who as soon as they left, fell asleep. “Can...” She squeaked out. “Can I take that room?” Truthfully, she looked like she was about to collapse right there in the hallway. She was exhausted beyond what should be possible for her kind.

dimensionhoppinghybrids:

Dave brought the duo towards the medical wing. There, he got them through the visiting papers and all of that, then helped them find Ben’s room.

After that, he really just took a backseat.

With a flare of his magic, he opened the door and allowed the other two to go inside and see Ben for themselves. He smiled at Tenebre especially, but encouraged before she went through; “Be gentle. He’s still a bit weak, but he’s recovering.” Before pushing her gently to the door.

Really, it was the best he could do.

This was their show now, and they needed to talk, to see him, and to be a bit in peace.

Ben turned to look at the door, expecting the nurse or Dave. He clearly wasn’t expecting who stood there, tears still brimming in her eyes.

Tenebre hesitated one moment longer before bolting in, nearly jumping ontop of Ben in the process. Thankfully to his relief she stopped just short of bowling through the bed he rested on. Instead, she laid her head atop the mattress and resumed weeping.

Where tears of sadness and worry had filled their trip, Tenebre finally wept tears of relief and joy.

Shinzora placed a paw on Dave’s shoulder, giving him a smile, before entering the room.

The pair spoke for nearly an hour, despite the time of day. The conversation revealed many things, including the fact that Ben’s evoker had been broken in the initial attack and would need replacement; a fact Shinzora was not looking forward to fixing. Evokers were expensive to create, so they only ever had a few. They were sealed in a box that was destroyed when the store blew up, so all the ones that they had spare were nothing but powder now.

Maybe Dave could help with getting the materials she needed.

Alas, the call came that visiting hours were concluded, and the pair had to retreat.

The pair struggled briefly. They weren’t used to how much energy was flowing through their bodies, so when the portal opened they both fell through with a soft “splash!”

Bragi pushed himself up and quickly saw to his sister, ensuring her well being before letting out a groan. “Let us never do that again.”

“Agreed.” Eir sat up and looked around them. “What is this place?”

Bragi was about to answer when he spotted Levi. “Father!” He shouted and ran, using his legs rather than his wings for a change to close the gap. Eir was seconds behind him.

The environment around them took second priority as they slid to a stop next to their father, Bragi grabbing his shoulders and shaking him to try and rouse him.

“He doesn’t look greatly injured.” Eir observed. “But he’s been in a fight.”

“Father? Father!” Bragi continued to shake him for a few more seconds before trying to cast a healing spell. They weren’t the most powerful of “mages” but they could help each aches and pains.

A figure, draped in cloth, drifted across the desert planes of Orre. Their face protected from the harsh sun, though an orange crest poked out from the bottom of the neck hole.

They paused in their drifting across the dunes as an unfamiliar pulse shook the planet.

The glanced around, seeking the source of it, but finding nothing.

Something big just passed away.

Something vile. Corrupt. They didn’t need to be The Judge to feel that much.

But if something that powerful was killed, then what killed it?

The problem with being immortal was that you had plenty of time to get answers to stupid questions. This they had to see themselves.

Following a pulse like that wasn’t easy since it clearly wasn’t in this dimension, but he could follow it from where it entered reality.

They hummed briefly to themselves as they felt the residual energies the wave carried settle around them. Then, with a wave of their hand, a portal opened and they drifted through; a few black and orange feathers falling from their wings as they left the desert behind.

#new character?#felt like tying them in somehow

Across the planes of interdimensional space, there was a light. Not just a visible light, but a warmth that suddenly washed over all.

The Twins were the first to notice. Their father was near. Very near. The Light within them was drawn towards him. The light that flared, that washed through the Colony, knocked them across their room.

The Nyxis house rested between reality itself in “The Void.” The appearance of a star in the blank sky drew the eyes of all. Even Lex, who was visiting on his break, stared at the light through the window with wonder.

Ben, still in his bed, felt a warmth in his chest as he slept. In his sleep, he muttered Levi’s name.

Taal rose from his bed. A massive energy displacement roused him. For some reason, he had to wipe a tear from his eye. Sarah twisted in bed, unable to stop the burning in her veins as the energy washed over her.

Even Johnny paused brushing his teeth as he felt something move through him. Dom felt more at peace than he had in a long time.
