Her fingers are blackened at the tips, dark veins spiderwebbing up her forearms where the magic had coursed red hot through her bloodstream. The skin on her neck was tight, several spots having petrified in crystal from overuse of a magic she relied on perhaps a bit too much. But she had to, right? All this power and yet she had let her home fall to the occupation, let people die and stain the earth red with their life force. She had to use everything in her arsenal now. If not to free her home from Niflheim, then to atone for her past lack of action. Scorched fingertips, tingling nerves, and scarred skin was nothing compared to what her people suffered back home.

She wondered if the river - the pride of Galahd - still ran clear anymore. Wondered if those reefs she used to hunt in had been crushed by warships docking on the white beaches she loved. Wondered the jungles still teemed with wildlife and flora or if it had been cut and burnt away.

The smell of antiseptic burned her nostrils. It’s not a new scent, one she’s endured many a time evident by the various scars across her body or the times she sat to have her vitals checked when she had really overdone it with magic usage. But today was not her visit, no. She leaned against the wall outside of the wing, gaze drifted off to nothing in particular and fingers mindlessly playing with the end of her braid as her mind ran through ailing thoughts that all merged into one another. The sound of gunshots ringing in her ears, mental maps of the battlefield flashing through her mind, the heat of fire and sting of blades. Millicent never thought she’d see war. She had always thought that she’d follow her parents and go into jewelry; weave metal and leather into intricate twists and carve down beautiful minerals gifted to them by the very land they loved. But fate - no, it hadn’t been fate - Niflheim had other plans. And Millicent found herself enlisted into the king’s personal army alongside any other refugee that had the capacity to wield magic.

And now she stood outside the glaive HQ medical wing awaiting the release of another within.

The scuffing of heavy duty boots and hint of black in her peripheral immediately pulled the woman back down to Eos, head lifting from its downward tilt to find the very woman she was expecting: Crowe Altius. She’d been left in bad shape after the recent battle - all the mages had. It was because of them that the glaives had ultimately won the battle, but at the cost of several of their women. Crowe herself looked disheveled - understandable given her two day stay at the wing - but overall seemed mostly patched up and in one piece. Millicent immediately pushed off the wall and hurried over to the other woman, an excited and relieved smile quickly pulling her lips up “Crowe! Are you alright? How are you feeling?” A redundant question, she wouldn’t have been discharged if she hadn’t been okay. But even healing through magical and medical means still left aches and exhaustion.

@lastglaivestanding | Crowe |

Crowe did her best to give Millicent a tired smile, she'd been out of commission for two days less because of sustained wounds and more because she'd used so much magic, she had none left. The strain it put on her spirit was immense and rest was the only real way to get it back.

She hated being in the infirmary though, especially when she was the patient. She'd been going crazy due to boredom, a boredom that not even Nyx or Libertus could alleviate.

They'd lost so many mages in that battle, and it was all her mind could think about. How could she have managed them better so that none died. Could she have done more to save lives? If only every battle didn't feel like everything was coming at them all at once! Sometimes if felt as if Titus was putting them in to positions specifically to get them all killed, and that it surprised him when any of them survived.

She hadn't voiced that last thought to anyone, she knew most everyone was loyal to Titus if not to the King they fought for. It wouldn't do to seem like she disliked anything he did. But it was passing strange that he seemed to be absent from any battle that General Glauca was at - battles where they needed his guidance the most.

It was honestly infuriating. She shook her head and pulled herself back out of her thoughts again. "Sorry Millie. I'm better than I was. Thankfully not physically damaged too badly. Mostly just weak from so much magic use. I could definitely use a distraction from my whirling what-if thoughts and some grub. Are you hungry?"

Immortality

They can't die... can they?

"That... that should've killed you."

"How are you still standing here?"

"Wait... wait, I saw you. I saw you die."

"You can't be alive, you can't, that's not..."

"Nobody could live through that."

"What do you mean you can't die?"

"Don't be ridiculous, that's not a real thing."

"Knock it off, tell me the truth."

"You can't just stand there and not tell me what's really going on!"

"How is that... no, no, I don't believe it."

"So you're telling me that you... can't die?"

"You're just going to live forever."

"That sounds... awful. I'm sorry."

"Have you ever... y'know.. tried?"

"Are you getting older or are you going to be like this forever?"

"Look, you need to know.. I'm immortal."

"It doesn't matter what you try, you can't kill me!"

"I've been this way as long as I remember."

"Well, that's a side effect, y'know, of my... condition. Youth. Eternal life."

"It wasn't my choice."

"I can be killed, yes, but if nothing ends me... then it's forever."

"No, I can't be killed. I don't know why."

"I want to go, so badly, but..."

"I have seen so many lifetimes now, so much cruelty..."

"Does it matter that I live, if so many die?"

Unfortunately I’ve long since had a falling out with the person who inspired this, but I can’t bring myself to delete this from my works. I honestly wanna finish and color it but also Millicent doesn’t look right for some reason and it’s making me angry because I can’t draw my own gosh darn character consistently like howmst?????

Perhaps one day I will finish you, my sketchy friend… Perhaps one day…

Title: I wanna be your Gillfriend Author: Myself (Talliya) Fandom: FF15 Pairings: Prom/Noct, with some side Prom/OCs, and Gladio/Ig Rating: Explicit Warnings: There are mentions of sex in this fic, both as an aside and in explicit detail. Cussing/Cursing. College AU ish. Sex jokes. Fishing jokes. A get together, stick together fic. Mutual pining. Noct kind of being a jerk about things. Just a couple of blockheads fitting themselves together. Confrontations. Learning curve. Summary: Prompto has been pining after his best friend for years. In high school he thought his little crush would eventually fade away, especially as Noctis didn’t seem interested in relationships of that sort at all - from guys or girls. However, as college started up, and Prompto met other men of like mind to himself, even dated a few, Noctis became distant. It seemed that whenever Prompto was single, his best friend was vying for his time, but when he was taken he’d only speak to him in passing, wouldn’t even answer texts about hanging out. Prompto slowly began to realize that his best friend may have simply been waiting on him to make a move, because even with Noctis’ excuse that Prompto should spend time with his boyfriend instead of him, the word “boyfriend” always seemed to be a sneer. So, he goes for broke and tries to ‘land his biggest catch yet’, as Noctis would put it. He lays himself bare in the hopes that he’s not crazy, and he might actually have a chance with the man he’s wanted for so long.

Promnis Holiday Exchange 2020 Sign-ups!

I will be sending out a list of participants before I assign people, so if anyone has an issue with someone else participating… LET ME KNOW. That way you will not be assigned them and they will not be assigned you. The point of this event is to be fun for all participants and grant someone’s Promnis wish. I don’t care what the drama is/was, just let me know there is/was some and I’ll be sure this event avoids it.

You can do any holiday you wish, or avoid holidays entirely. It is simply a time of year filled with many on-going holidays, so ‘Holiday Exchange’ is what I call it.

Click this link to sign up! https://forms.gle/2G1pVezKygcWDAJH6

Please remember to read all of the FINE PRINT on the form. It tells you what you need to do (and why), as well as gives examples. However, if anything is confusing please, please, please let @helmistress​ know! I will clear it up for you. ^_^

All information for this event can be found on our page as well as this post: https://promnisofficialer.tumblr.com/post/628472045405143041/promnis-holiday-exchange-2020

Sign-ups are open from Sept. 6, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020. So you’ve plenty of time to think it over and decide if you can or can’t commit. (If you send in a form and find out you won’t be able to do it before sign-ups are over, just let me know and I’ll take your form out of the group.)
