❛❛ thancred ! ❜❜ the noise of shiokaze hostelry is nothing new to him and neither is the voice that calls out ▬▬▬ though it is one that do-hyun has not heard in some time. only a few strides are needed before he can slide onto the bench across from the other, the contents of his own currently untouched drink gently spilling over the sides as he sets it down on the table a bit too roughly. ❛❛ perhaps, but still recognizable nonetheless. ❜❜ enough time spent in the presence with those wealthy merchants who come from ul’dah for trade will eventually change a man though for better or worse depends on the individual. ❛❛ a change would be nice. i suppose i can train here, but you know as well as i do that nothing compares to a real battle. it has been quite awhile ... have you come here on a mission ? ❜❜
of that he knows, from battles lost and won. the rush of a fight : thundering hearts and sweating palms. the ring of steel that vibrates to his core and echoes in his ears. heaving breaths and splattering crimson. fear, pain, relief, victory. no ── there is nothing quite like it, is there ? ❛ all too well. ❜ thancred agrees in passing, a hum of words that very nearly get lost amongst the voices that surround them. there comes a pause ; for the lull in action thus far is a respite he hadn’t come to realize of its necessity. no chasing of figures too elusive, no apprehension nor uncertainty of the unknown. only the exhaustion that follows in the wake of freedom, a semblance of peace that feels almost too good to be true. ❛ on the contrary, dear friend. i am on a much deserved vacation, i would say. ❜ the rim of his tankard rests upon his lips, its aroma calling his name. ❛ and that change you speak of, any areas of interest ? ❜
SENTENCE MEME BALDUR'S GATE 3 / PART ONE
i think you're past the point of saving.
together we might survive.
get me out of this damn thing.
we have no time for stragglers.
do you intend to die for a stranger?
i thought that damn thing was going to be my coffin.
you keep dangerous company.
we can watch each other's backs along the way.
enough of this chatter.
who put you in charge?
i'll trust my own judgement.
a miracle, given everything you've been through.
it'll all be for nothing if you don't find help soon.
you're alive. i'm alive. how is this possible?
seems like we're the lucky ones, judging by all the corpses strewn about.
anything's an improvement on where we just came from.
'we'? you want to stay together?
we need each other.
i can't think of better company.
i wanted to thank you again.
you should be furious, shouldn't you?
kill it yourself — you look capable enough.
i was hoping for a kind soul.
let's try to keep that lovely neck of yours in one piece.
no need for this to get messy.
i need her alive.
and to think i was ready to decorate the ground with your innards.
please, allow me to introduce myself.
of course it'll turn me into a monster.
you should travel with me.
our odds are better together.
i was ready to go this alone.
maybe sticking with the herd isn't such a bad idea.
you seem like a useful person to know.
let's hope any future acquaintances don't hold a blade to your throat by way of introduction.
no harm in a little mystery.
conversation shouldn't be made, it should be grown.
maybe i'd like to get to know you better.
i'm usually better at this.
couldn't have phrased it more repellently myself.
you don't happen to be a cleric, by any chance? a doctor, surgeon? uncannily adroit with a knitting needle?
it's not exactly a common affliction.
a parasite shared is a parasite halved.
you're both twice as tall as me but have half the bloody backbone.
no point getting killed.
second worm gets the cheese and all.
nobody's getting any damn cheese.
she obviously sees your kindness as weakness.
don't let her take advantage.
a simply 'thank you' wouldn't go amiss.
your friends abandoned you.
i've got plenty of friends who aren't soft.
let's just hope she reserves those impulses for any common foes.
what a curious way to awaken.
what is the worth of a single mortal's life?
something the matter?
you must have thoughts about our little stowaways.
thinking about it won't help.
i suppose we'd go our separate ways — not a slight on your company, of course.
no reason for us to not stay together if we get on well.
if we do survive, we'll have separate lives to return to.
let's just say it's a very person, very private acquaintance.
you're not the kind of company i'd keep willingly.
perhaps i'll return the favor at some point.
she's delightful, in a very 'look at me twice and i'll dismember you' kind of way.
i understand much beyond your comprehension.
you'd do well to observe more and question less.
and they didn't cut you from navel to neck?
i am still getting used to people like you.
that large, fleshy nose of yours looks like a mistake.
best to keep quiet, lest any drivel leak from your lips.
i do not intend to stay long in this place.
may your actions express the same mettle.
anomalies lead to surprises.
what hasn't happened may yet come to pass.
not a collaboration i'd have anticipated.
can't you tell me something real about you?
i have a great respect for privacy, especially my own.
i have a very disciplined mind.
those tricks won't work on me.
please don't try that again unless i invite you to.
we meet again, as predicted.
care to explain why you're helping me?
what kind of services can a skeleton offer?
a monster forms inside us, and you care to be idle?
i knew your kind to be fragile.
don't you know an exhausted warrior is an ineffective one?
it's a thickheaded notion in a complex circumstance.
what were you two talking about?
if that was any of your business, we'd have called you over.
your business is mine.
we're entwined.
if we're to survive, we need to trust each other.
you seem reliable.
we're overdue some good fortune.
@daemonry
❛ my good friend ! ❜ a warmhearted greeting spoken over a half empty tankard with a tongue resting underneath a heaviness. upon his lips twists a smile : upturned on a corner, a flash of teeth. amongst the drone of chatter and laughter that lingers in the air remains a lightness in his chest. ❛ a sight for sore eyes, that you are. ❜ a drum of a beat tapped onto stained wood by restless fingers ; gaze shifting to the bustling streets before them. kugane ── its twinkling lights that rival the stars gazing down from above. in that moment, a sense of nostalgia as he faces a flittering reminder of the many cities his travels have taken him to. ❛ tell me, the life of an adventurer has called upon you once more, has it not ? ❜
hiii :3
“Is that a hint of melancholy I detect in thy voice? Something akin to a pining mother bird whose chicks have flown the nest…” “Father bird, if you don’t mind. But aye, you’re not entirely wrong. Still, when the day finally comes to say goodbye, it heartens me to know she won’t be alone.”
@battlehigh : please don’t leave, i need you.
dawn breaks anew. the creeping rays of sunlight sweeping across the land speak promises of new beginnings, a rest to weary minds from yesternight. yet as the sun kisses the horizon, it does little to ease the tension that festers deep within his chest. when haven’t his eyes feasted upon war ton soil, along crumbling stones and gaunt faces ? such familiarity is not enough to quell the churning of his stomach. as nails bite into the flesh of his palms and teeth ache from the clenching of his jaw he wonders ── a thought that itches and claws at the back of his mind. if it will always be like this, if life for them meant tragedy.
that anger burns bright in his heart ── coils around the beating flesh and oh, is thancred a selfish man indeed as the gentleness of his touch hides the storm that brews within. fingers find their way through ink blackness, sifting and tucking soft strands behind her ear. it isn’t fair now, is it ? the warrior of light caught in a stroke of sour luck, subjected to the same fate as him : he nearly feels guilty and that alone coats his tongue with bitterness. still does a smile grace his lips ; a private one, found in the comfort of her presence and lingering under the warmth of the sun. ❛ worry not. i’m afraid you’ll be stuck with me for a little while longer. ❜
i didn’t forget about here!! life has just been so hectic 😔 in the meantime i think a plotting call is needed so consider this the post for it!
THANCRED WATERS IN THE FINAL FANTASY XIV: ENDWALKER TRAILER
“You took your time...”
・✧ thancred ✧・
over the fields of paglth’an
@ryukishini : i guess it’s just my way of dealing.
prompt .
there are wounds upon thancred’s heart too : old yet unhealed marks that ache from reminders and familiarity, etched deep into his very being. they fester and ooze something putrid. they’re distant smiles burned into the back of his eyes, bright and blinding. they’re echoing laughter rattling in his ears loud enough to nearly split his head open. these wounds are ghosts that haunt him ; such a foreboding existence that looms along the creeping darkness inching themselves closer and closer with every intention to consume. they’re memories once sweet tinged sourly ── it leaves him uneasy.
the azure dragoon need not explain for thancred to understand. ❛ do we not all have our own ways ? ❜ his words linger as a half-hearted confession, twisted around a lopsided smile that alludes to more than whatever he’s spoken. thancred himself has been nothing more than a fleeting presence amongst them : months lost to guilt and deserved loneliness. spending days on end running because… because it’s always easier ── when he doesn’t have to remember ; when he can pretend that everything’s alright. ❛ it would be entirely unfair of me to judge you, my friend. ❜
