Soey, drawn by the wonderful and amazing @bookofsul
Soey and her girlfriend, Nissy. What a lovely pair <3
Soey Flamepaw. Aurin body practice-..yes
She felt like someone was shaking the world around her. Throwing her hand out to lash onto anything in the darkness of the void, Ally heard a very familiar voice. “Ally… be hurting Soey.” Ally opened her eyes and there she was. Soey was standing right next to the cot in her cell, alongside miss Rowen and mister Nebojsa. She realised her hand was clutched tight around Soey’s wrist and quickly let go.
They said they were taking her with them, that it was time to leave. Ally couldn’t believe what she was hearing. She was going home? She hadn’t even told them that she had made her mind up yet! Rowen made a quick phsyical checkup on her and made note that Ally hadn’t been eating properly and then… Ally stepped out of her cell and walked towards the exit. No one tried to stop her. No guards, no alarms.
Safely home at Soey’s tree Nebojsa handed Ally her uniform. She was now set to join the Black Hoods, even though she had no idea what that would entail. But first she was going to sleep. And eat. And cuddle with her girlfriend.
Soey had been tired and miserable, her sleep cycle completely broken from the many hours she spent just curled up on her pillowbed, thinking of Ally, feeling lonely. All she could think of was Ally and how much she was missing her. When Mister Nebby called her to let her know Ally was ready to leave the jail, and that they’d go to get her that same night, she was instantly awake though, and starting to make preparations.
Some hours later she was finally there, walking up to her cell, and the last few steps, she just couldn’t control herself anymore, couldn’t hold back her joy, and ran past Mister Nebby and into Ally’s cell, ready to give her the hug of her life - just to see her lying there, barely conscious. Her smile was instantly gone as she knelt down next to her, trying to take her hand to check up on her, when Ally suddenly grabbed her wrist painfully hard. “Ally... be hurting Soey”, she muttered, helplessly looking over to Rowen, who was already busy examining her...
Soon after they had established that Ally is healthy, just missing nutrition, they left the prison, hopefully never to return, bringing Ally to Soey’s place. Well, their place now, as Ally had agreed to move in with Soey. Without telling anyone, Soey had prepared a little surprise at home, combining some of her favorite things: her love for Ally, pillows, flowers and candles. Sitting there on the pillows with Ally, all she hoped for was that now, finally, everything would be fine...
All things considered… the night out had been worth it.
As Taulin curled up tightly, her side nuzzled by a thick layer of warm, fluffy pillows (purple! She’d noted… which made them all the softer), her mind swam through pictures of the night’s events - pushing against a gentle tide of mild intoxication.
Where had it started, again…? It was a… rusty bottle? Bottles! The bot had thrown a bottle at her! She’d wanted to seek out some of the less familiar bars of Thayd and she’d ended up stumbling into a little place just off a narrow Alley… and the barbot had served her something that didn’t taste at all like cider and smelled far too… rancid. A human had hit it for her and, well, it responded by spitting the bottle across the room. Wait- did it hit anyone?! She’d not thought about that… she’d been worrying about the man who’d punched the bot, in case he’d broken his hand or something. Good thing he hadn’t asked her name or anything. She wouldn’t get into any trouble… hopefully.
It had been a good time to get away to the next place, at least… someone was offering free drinks! Or a free drink, for everyone. That was convincing enough to get her to the… Scythe. That was the name of the bar, wasn’t it? Ugh, she really needed to take better note of that stuff… But the Scythe had been a nice place! And it had reminded her of someone…
A flick of the tip of her tail and purple fur brushed a little against orange. She smiled a little to herself, contentedly nudging her nose against another pillow. She’d remembered that Soey had been the one to direct her to this part of Thayd, originally… and she’d been nice enough to buy Linny a drink! (A favour she’d returned later in the night… it was only fair!) She’d also promised another hug. It seemed a nice idea to invite her out again… and they’d had a real great time as a result - chatting and joking and messing around a little after another drink together. As well as… well, this. The Thorntails, she’d said. A tribe for Aurin in need. And once Linny’d said she needed a bed, Soey hadn’t let up until she’d convinced her to drop by their village.
But that had come much later, of course. They still had a whole night to go! So they’d headed on to a place Taulin had heard plenty about, but not seen. A bar in space! On a rock! The… Pink Salmon. It was amazing! And talk about a view… it was just a shame their visit was disrupted by some bad blood. She’d just wanted to share a drink with Soey and Marian - another Aurin she’d met the other night, at the Cherub. Instead a foul-mouthed aurin male had decided to harass them… and she’d been very close to putting a bullet in his knee for it, with the nasty things he’d been saying about Mari. If someone hadn’t intervened… well, at least a whack to his head had sent him packing long enough for her and Soey to depart, before he decided to try his luck anymore.
And so… here Soey took her. The Thorntails…
It was a nice village, she’d quickly decided. A nice, cool atmosphere… and Algoroc wasn’t so bad a place, if a little lacking in greenery compared to Celestion. At least she could get barbecue in the morning…
…right, the morning. How long had she been sat here, pondering over the last few hours? She could see Soey’s sleeping form just past her bare feet, their tails touching and curled together at the tip. A contented sigh escaped her, finally letting herself sag into the pillow-bed and letting her eyes fall shut.
Yeah… the night was totally worth it. And she’d made a very sweet new friend!
She missed Soey. Very much a lot, as Soey herself used to say. Ally was tempted to accept the offer the Black Hoods had made just to be able to be with her again.
She thought about the improv night at the Station. It had not been long before she had been incarcerated and Ally had invited Soey there, even though the after work nights were officially only for employees. The Runners had come into possession of two large crates of masquerade clothing after a client had failed to provide payment for the delivery and Papova, having seen no way of profiting from the goods, had generously allowed Ally to use the costumes for company events.
Even though Dynna, Rowen and a few others joined in, Ally and Soey were probably the ones that appreciated the theatre games the most. They had been acting silly, dressing up in one costume after another, laughing together. She could be silly with Soey. Soey never called her childish or stupid. She just made Ally feel at home…
Nebojsa had said that he was going to inform Soey about their plans for her. She needed to know what Soey thought she should do, but that offer was starting to look more tempting for each additional minute she spent in her cell.
Soey liked this place. Not only did it have a pretty view, but it also allowed her to keep an eye on most of Thorntail Village. She was sitting on the tree above the little lake, just as she often does, when she heard the Transmat activating behind her, and the Mordesh stepping out of it with a couple of robots. She remembered meeting him some weeks ago, in front of Charyb, the night... the night Ally had been upset with her. Him, carrying Rowen, followed by his robots. He seemed a little weird, but nice enough, and it seems Ally knew him well and trusted him. What did he do here? In a big leap she headed down to the other side of the little lake, standing on one of the rocks before taking another, smaller leap right in front of him, cheerfully greeting him.
Turned out, he wasn't just Ally's friend - he was also the one she's been waiting for. Ally told her they would visit, and here he was. Ally didn't tell her that it'd be Mister Nebby, but that was fine. Soey examined him curiously as they sat down on the pillows around the campfire - he looked stranger even than she remembered, cold and a little distant, yet she felt like she could trust him, his words being very true to her own attitude. "Sometimes, you have to do bad things for the greater good, take one live to save many - or even just two.", he had told her, explaining the Black Hoods way of protecting the Exiles. It sounded cruel, but she knew it to be true, she knew it had to be done, and she appreciated him being that honest with her, despite the impression he must have had of her.
Soey was aware of how most people seemed to think of her, being the little harmless ginger Aurin, babbling the way she does, struggling with complicated words; they were never quite taking her serious, talking to her like a child - everyone except Ally, at least. Ally knew that Soey was smarter than she appeared, that she very well understood the things around her, that it was just language that was giving her a hard time, just the words, not the concepts behind those words. And to some degree, Gina knew that too. Gina had encouraged her to be strong, had told her sometimes, you have to fight to protect. Soey preferred hugging to fighting, cheerfulness to doom and gloom, but she also knew that sometimes, one just has to fight. It was part of the purpose of Thorntail Tribe, a purpose she'd been happy to sign up to. Some day, she'd have to fight to protect what she loved. The day hadn't come yet. She did not hurt even a single Chua herself so far, nor anyone else, though her scouting of nearby Dominion camps may have been responsible for some deaths. But whenever she saw a soldier of the Dominion, she felt something deep down inside her, some kind of purpose that she wasn't even really aware of herself - remains of the other Soey, the past Soey, the one that died the day she was born, back in the Woods of Celestion, when her ship crashed. She wasn't really able to grasp it, but it was a part of her, a part that she hadn't been aware of at first, but started to faintly notice more and more over time.
So despite her usually cheerful and harmless appearance, Soey understood his words well, and she understood the need for the things he told her about. She understood how useful Ally could be for them too. Mister Nebby had assured her that he just wanted her to listen, not to interfere or even harm anyone - a notion that was familiar to Soey as a scout. She just hoped Ally would be ready, should that ever have to change. He also told her that, maybe not so much for himself, but for others, the Black Hoods were a family, taking care of each other. It might be dangerous, but they'd do whatever they could to keep her safe. But more than that, she understood, that they could help Ally get out of her situation. That they could bring her home, back home to herself. Back home, where she could protect Ally herself again too, instead of just being able to visit and watch, powerless to influence her situation. And that was all she wanted since the day she met Ally: be there for her, care for her, and protect her. Ally, the love of her life.
She'd make sure to visit her again to talk to her about all of this...
After the recent incident at Fortune’s Ground, Ally found herself incarcerated in an underground high-security prison cellblock located somewhere on Nexus, only accessible through transmat. Spending her days more or less isolated she had more than enough time to go through what had happened, over and over again.
She had felt unexpectedly calm since she came there. No longer did she have to worry about her family’s farm, of getting up to go to work in the morning. Her thoughts seemed clearer, more distilled than ever. Details that she usually would take no notice of now shone like bright beacons before her inner eye. When thinking back on past events she realised how much had passed her by. Mocking words, demeaning glances…
Most of all, however, she thought of her girlfriend. And as time passed she grew more and more determined that she could not let this happen again. She had hurt her family, she was not going to hurt Soey.
After passing out from exhaustion in the streets of Thayd during her search for Ally, Soey was found by Revelyn Rookhollow, who took care of her and brought her back to Thorntail Village. It was only then, over a day later, when Soey got the call from the peacekeepers office, informing her of Ally’s incarceration, but they didn’t tell her much more than that. Soey wasn’t sure if that meant she didn’t have to worry about her, or worry even more.
The next day she had been allowed to visit Ally though, and she took the first chance she got to do so. Even there, she managed to just learn little more about the reasons for Ally’s incarceration, partly because Ally didn’t know, and partly because the little Ally said, Soey didn’t really understand. Ally was hurting her father, because he wanted to take her away, threatened to hurt Soey? It.. didn’t really sound like Ally to hurt someone. Then again, it wasn’t really her, it was those robots, by what she told. Ally didn’t seem to understand herself, so how would Soey?
Seeing her beloved Ally in that orange jumpsuit, not even wearing shoes, her skin bruised, her eye black; timid, scared and twitchy; changed, somehow... It was no easy thing for Soey, and all she could think about was wrapping her arms and tail around Ally, tasting her sweet lips as she’d try to comfort her and cheer her up. But the guards - not even daring to be there in person, just speaking through intercom - didn’t even allow Soey to hug her, let alone kiss her. What an injustice. And after just a few minutes, the intercom announced the end of her visit. Way too short... but she’d come again, she’d try every day, if they let her...

((Music: One Summer’s Day - Joe Hisaishi))
It was staring right at her, black eyes the size of pinheads, peering into her own as she looked up. It’s face, if you could call it that, was brown with red stripes running down along it. It didn’t seem to know where it was, or what was going to happen to it. After a short while Ally’s eyes focused and she noticed Soey, sitting there on the pillow with a cheerful smile, holding the little bug up to her face.
“Ally be hungry?” the ginger aurin asked. Before her was sat a small ornamental bowl filled with various insects, wriggling over each other, unable to scale the steep edges. Ally blinked.
Keep reading
...Soey woke up later, Ally still not having returned. But she said she would, so Soey kept waiting.. and waiting... after an hour of waiting, she tried to call, but didn’t get through. after another hour, she tried again. More than 4 hours had passed, before she gave up on waiting, and got up to go to Thayd, to look for her beloved.
She couldn’t find, what wasn’t there though. Ally had already been incarcerated by the peacekeepers, the mess had been cleaned up. But how would she know? Soey looked everywhere, asked everyone if they’d seen the pig-tailed woman of her dreams. She checked with every cafe, every barista, every bar, every single place that could have coffee. Talking to the people she met, she heard a bunch of crazy stuff about a murder, about a machine uprising taking a death toll even, but all that just went over her head, she couldn’t make any sense of that, so she kept on looking, and trying to call her, leaving her messages every few minutes, asking where she is, and if she’s okay.
Even late at night she was still on her feet, walking around the streets of Thayd, deeply worried and dead tired, her ears and tail drooping down as she hauled herself forward step by step. She had been in that alley already earlier, but she had to be somewhere here. Ally wouldn’t just go away, wouldn’t just leave her, without telling her.. would she? She said she’d come back... she did say that, didn’t she? She said she loved her... and Soey loved Ally too... so very much a lot, she thought... her last thought, before she collapsed in one of the dark back alleys, her mind finally giving in to her body’s weakness...

What...
Browsing through Holonet as she often does when bored, Soey stumbles across this advert, grabing her attention. After reading it, she mutters:
“Oooh... Soey need job... work at Charyb? Would like that, Charyb is fun! Maybe Soey be useful somehow... Soey could try...“
Thorntail Village
Recently, Soey met Gina Diamondeyes, and quickly became friends with her. Gina had just founded a new Aurin community called Thorntail Tribe, aiming to build a home for Aurin, as well as protect Aurin society, and Soey was the first Aurin to join her in that effort, becoming the first Thorntail Scout.
Only a couple of days later, they had started to build a village, and gathered quite a few more Aurin, like their healer Mheira Evendew, Soey’s new roommate Mireille Silverleaf, shy Samantha Argos, or the slightly weird Edward Nebuland. Their tribe was growing, and everyone was busy building their new homes.
They even had a large storage room, with lots of crates. Soey was very curious to see what’s in them, and one day decided to open one of them up. Quickly she was drowned in what would become one of the most important building blocks for the little Aurin community...
Holonet Dating Profile: Soey
Exploring the streets of Thayd, Soey found a new, interesting place: A so called "Holonet Café", with a bunch of machines, apparently called 'Holonet Terminals'. After giving a few coins to the Granok behind the counter, she was told she may use them. Curious as ever, she quickly climbed on a big, comfy, Granok-sized green chair in front of one of those terminals, and looked at the screen. The last user seemed to have left some pages open, and Soey looked over the names of the various pages, clicking on them one by one:
"Protostar Realty" was showing off houses, with big numbers next to each picture. Seemed boring. "Soey don't need house, has favorite tree!". she mumbled, clicking it away.
"FCON Recruitment: We want you, now!" was open as well, pictures of Soldiers with big weapons, waving the exile flag, spaceships flying in the back. She didn't really know what to think of it, so she clicked that one away as well.
Next up was "Rock hard Granok meets Naughty Aurin" - and it didn't sound so fun either. Granok were always rock hard, weren't they? She preferred comfy, cuddly to hard any day! And the Aurin... she really preferred nice people - why would she look for naughty ones? That just be silly... And that one didn't even wear something pretty. She shook her head and quickly clicked it away, without giving it closer look.
"Shelly Lovejoy's Toy Shop" sounded interesting. Toys are always fun, right? Soey loved playing all kinds of games, so, she took a closer look. Most of them looked kinda weird though, colorful creations looking like bananas, cucumbers or something like that, and she really had no idea how she was supposed to play with those. For a moment, a set consisting of a black, spiky collar and leash caught her attention: Maybe that be what Ally talk about? She could see how that might be fun, as she liked pretending to be a pumera cub, and meow and purr at people. But the spikes looked kinda silly, and she'd prefer something more colorful to play with. And there were naked Aurin again. Pretty, but she didn't see what that had to do with toys and playing games. And so she clicked another page away.
Then, "Nexus Holonet Dating - Meet new people today!" caught her eye. The description read: "Meet other exiles with similar likes and tastes, get to know them, and start your own private adventure!" - now that sounded fun! Soey really liked to meet other people and making friends, so she clicked on a button labeled "How does it work?", and read: "Sign up now, fill out your profile, answer some questions, and you're ready to go!". "Hoookay", she mumbled, and clicked on "Sign up", only to be presented with a big form full of questions:
Name: "Hookay.. that be easy!", she said, entering "Soey". Age: "Who.. Soey dunno...", leaving it blank. Gender: "Uh, Soey know that one!", she mumbled, selecting "female" when asked for her gender, even though she might have been confused at the multitude of other options for a second. Race: "that'd be Aurin, right?" - so she put in "Aurin".
She continued to fill out other basic infos, until the form got a bit more complicated:
"Click here to take a profile picture", she read, and so she did. Immediately, a little camera on the terminal flashed her for a second, then a picture appeared right above that button:
"Uh hu... hope Soey be looking friendly enough!", she mumbled, but the form already switched to the next page:
Looking for: [x] Friendship [x] Casual Fun [x] Regular Hookup [x] Love interest [_] Serious Relationship
She quickly checked friendship, and casual fun, without even thinking about it - of course she'd like to have friends and fun! The next one slightly confused her for a moment: "Hookup? Hu... maybe be meaning hug up? yes, must be it... Soey love hug, and regular hug maybe nice!", she mumbled, quickly checking it as well. "Love Interest? yes, Soey be interested in what Love be...", she thought, checking that box as well. "Serious Relationship... uhm... Soey like relationship, but not like being super serious. Like being cheerful and fun more!", she muttered, leaving that box unchecked.
Interested in: [x] Males [x] Females
"Weird", she thought: "why would Soey only be looking to be friends with either?", and of course checked both.
She was then asked presented with a big text area and asked to enter anything she liked to tell others about herself. She thought about her time alone in the woods after her ship crashed, and started typing:
"Soey was alone way too long, and now is looking to meet people, to have lots of fun with, hug and play exciting games! Soey also likes to wear costumes, and pretend be someone or something else." - she thought back to the masquerade ball at the Charyb the week before, and smiled, then remembering her recent conversation with Ally, she continued: "Soey is trying to be a very good girl, and to make people smile!". Yes, that should be good, she thought - who wouldn't wanna smile?
Lastly, she was asked to put in her contact information, and without hesitation entered her Datachron Info, so anybody who'd want to be her friend could just call her, then clicked the final Sign-up Button.
"Thank you for signing up. Potential candidates will start contacting you soon!", the screen then stated. "Oh.. hoookay.. Soey be waiting at home then!", she told the terminal as if it would listen, climbed off the char, and left the terminal unattended again...
((OOC: Soey might not have a clue what exactly she got herself into here, but is always looking to meet new people, make friends, and explore social interactions. If this caught your eye and you want to get to know her, whatever your interest in her might be, let me know in a PM or just contact her via datachron call (=whisper) ingame. Or maybe fill out your own Holonet Dating Profile, so Soey or others can discover you? Whatever this leads to, I'm sure it'll be fun.))
So! What do you think of Nexus so far?
Oh, uh… be very weird place.. but be home! Soey not remember other home anyway… And Soey meet very many super nice people here!
...and that be Soey when at home!
