iβve picked up kith & kin again and i am once again thinking of The Twins πββοΈ
got hit with the big wave of the Sadsβ’οΈ and couldnβt conjure up 2 sentences without hating them and deleting them lol iβll do better this week. hopefully.
i know this blog (and all my blogs) says itβs on a permanent semi hiatus but i still feel the need to apologize for not being here shdjfhdj anyway i should be here this week π€
ITS FFVII REBIRTH DAYYYYY, iβll be largely absent today since iβll be playing hehe
my roman empire is vax telling keyleth he will walk into danger and risk his own life if she asked him to. if this man isnβt painful, unyielding devotion then idk who else could be
i fucking MISSED riding around with my boys.
breathes the deepest sigh there ever was, ok poet you win.
β³ γ € @raevildan πΈπ³π°π΅π¦ :γ €' as usual, youβre a wimp. '
a young vex'ahlia bristles at her brother's words, features twisting into a scowl. with a roll of her eyes, she whips around to face her brother, thrusting a finger in the direction of a disheveled pile of leaves.
γ €γ €γ €γ €γ €" i am not! " she exclaims. " look. tracks. not that you would know, brother. perhaps if you did less talking and more observing, you'd learn a thing or two. " with an air of smugness, vex carefully trots on ahead, bow in hand. " it went this way. quickly, vax! " if they were successful in tracking her prey, they'd be set with at least a week's worth of food β maybe they could even barter with the leftovers. filled with a renewed vigor, vex'ahlia grins as she disappears into the dark of the woods.
* HE'S NOT ONE FOR THE WILDS, not like his sister. vax trudges the environment with a grimace, wishing he was someplace else β stalking the city streets, clinging to much friendlier shadows. but his sister, vex'ahlia, thrived in places like this. deep in the woods, hunting, tracking. it was all second nature to her β a gift that she was well attuned to, not that her brother would ever admit it out loud. not right now, at least, " are too! " the young half-elf argues. " so what? we've been going in circles, vex. i swear i've seen that tree before ten times over, " though he'd been the one to bring up the boggle, regret was settling in deep now β his feet tire, mud thick on his boots, and the vivid glow of dusk was a blanket shrouded over the forest's canopy, peeking through the leaves and into his eyes, " just admit you don't know where you're going, " but her step quickens, and vax struggles to keep up, " will you slow down?! "
βͺ ANSWERED ASK : @astraltouch / gilmore " are you certain of your way ? "
* VAX'ILDAN LETS OUT AN EXASPERATED LAUGH, not in response to shaun's inquiry, but rather to his own disquiet, one that sits deep in his chest. it weighs about as heavy as one would imagine. the answer was rather simple β but it frightens him to even acknowledge it, to hold it. to make it real. " i ... i don't know, " he tells the other, clinging to his cloak for comfort. her champions cloak. he lets go promptly.
brow furrows, " i thought i knew. " vax'ildan wasn't destined for greatness, for grand titles, to be a hero. all his heart desired was to protect his sister, and those he loves β though the cost was a lot more haunting than it seemed, " something happened down there, in that tomb ... i ... " he pauses, acknowledging that dark, looming feeling that always seemed to linger in his peripherals. the whispers. the sound of ravens, " ... i'm afraid, gilmore. i'm fucking terrified. "
ease away my grateful skin, and i will rejoice at skin reshaped in silt, and my fragments will swim in the currents of the abyss. fill my eyes and mouth with thick and choking mud, and i will exult in the death of sight, sensation, and noise. bear me away into black depths, and i will forget my pain and the name i once wore.
this week has been so busyyyyy but iβll actually be around tomorrow!
hiiiiieeee *poses cutely* i plan on being here either tonight or tomorrow xoxo
PERCIVAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL
keyleth is iconic in the way that she blows a kiss to her boyfriend before going earth elemental form and plummeting headfirst into an enemy ship like a fucking meteor
there's an itch beneath her skin ; something gnawing at her bones, coiled around her vertebrae like barbed wire. every time she shifts, she feels it press against her skin, wanting to get out βΈ» every time she blinks, the dull darkness of her past threatens to swallow her whole. it's brighter now that she's not alone, though she does not feel the same connection with vax'ildan ( she mouths the name to herself, feels the syllables settle in the hollow of her mouth, the sharpness in the middle catching on her teeth. she finds she likes it ) and so she allows her shoulders to relax.
β tisa, β she offers in turn. if she'd had a name before, this will have to suffice ; someone had crowned her in yew once βΈ» red and green against the white of her hair. berries staining her hands red. like everything else, it slips through her fingers, but there is no use in dwelling. β so you weren't on the ship. that's really good, honestly. i mean, they put worms in our heads. i was with two other women, and this brain thing when ... well. β she winces, rubbing at her ribs, bruises that should be there and aren't. β you're not a healer, are you ?? β
* THE STRANGER'S UNEASE GOES UNNOTICED by vax, who sits idly by the fire warming his palms β it was the sound of her voice that brings him back, offering a glance toward her as he grows attuned to her name. " tisa, huh? has a nice ring to it. " he smiles, listening intently to her tale of how she wound up in this place, and the events that led her here. to which vax'ildan's smile slowly fades, " holy shit. " words come as a surprise even to himself, but he can't contain both his horror and awe of equal measure. if she was infected with a mindflayer tadpole, that could only mean one thing β she was a ticking time bomb.
the half elf shakes his head regretfully, " .. afraid not, " he offers a peek underneath his cloak, revealing only daggers at his hip, " daggers are my specialty, not medicine. " a moment is taken to look her over, flitting hazel hues returning to meet her own, " and from the sound of it β you're going to need a hell of a healer. "
he'd only encountered one mindflayer before, back in kraghammer. what limited knowledge he had, had shown him that they are cunning, manipulative creatures, with a hivemind. vax brings out one of his daggers, inspecting it, gliding his thumb along its sharp edge β only to flip it up into the air. he catches it with ease, " aaaand if i know one thing about mindflayers, and tadpoles, is that you don't have a lot of time before ... you know. we should start our search first thing in the morning. "
βAnd as the snowdrop flowers continue with each step, you blink, and it's just feathers.β
