Something kinda cute and sweet (and I know if I pass out really soon I will not make it on the deadline so I'm posting it right now)
For @morimenswrite 3rd Prompt! Now SalvaKirie flavored!
-------------
Kirie has a habit of observing everyone's actions a little too carefully.
She would notice when Ramona is a bit too tired from the previous night of investigations when she doesn't send a message at her communicator at exactly 8 o' clock in the morning to tell her to not forget about the homework to be submitted to Professor Doll.
She would notice Aigis was in a good mood and had a good meal when she receives twice the amount of stuffed animals that Aigis told her that she would send to her doorstep.
She would notice Jenkin had made a killing the previous night when she was kind enough not to skip classes for the day and even treated the other child awakeners to lunch at the Awakener cafeteria.
She would notice how Thais would have her horns all polished up when she would tell her that she would like to spend time with her the whole day.
She would notice how Ogier's face gets easily flustered when people compliment how good of a fighter he is and how he would politely say that he's still learning to be better.
She would notice that Doll is in a good mood when she lets her pass her homework a day after it was due (with permission, of course).
But for some reason, she couldn't exactly read the differences on Salvador's actions.
Salvador was kind to everyone in Mythag, his actions never favored anyone. He would listen to anyone, awakener or not, with equal fervor. Everyone, in turn, would listen to his advice as well.
Sure, there's the whole "Pale Messenger" deal that he has been talking about towards her but to be honest, she doesn't truly get it. She thinks it's kind of a delusional thing but knowing about the concepts of Aeons and Supreme Wills, sometimes she just accepts it as fact.
But there are times when he instantly turns around to her direction to greet her even when talking to someone else in Mythag, or when he asks for her time alone in the communicator or letters. To meet as friends.
Then the way he talks and smiles at her as they talk to each other. The way how he sometimes asks to hold his hands. Sometimes, she sees a slight blush on his face.
Her heart raced even faster. She always knew she liked him more than she should.
She wonders if she's just seeing things or is there really something more to this than the established friendship that they have?
Kinda short one for today, because I couldn't really think of dialogue or a scene so have this...
For @morimenswrite Prompt #2 - Glow
Everytime Salvador casts "The Blessing" during investigations and battles, the stone tablets that hover behind him glow in pale blue light, lighting the markings of these tablets to cast their healing.
This otherworldly light was also present when the Keeper and Salvador first linked to each other.
A pale blue light, a mark perhaps of the All-Father's prophecy is all too familiar to Salvador.
He has seen this light even before he was awakened. This light was his salvation. The answer that the All-Father gave him in times of strife. It was comfort yet a curse. Despite that, he accepted that this light will always be there and this light will always need blood offerings to be seen once more. The payment may seem to be steep to others but in his eyes, no payment is too steep for the wellbeing of all the people he loved.
But for the Keeper, seeing this pale blue glow reminds them of Salvador's own light and warmth. They always knew Salvador was one of the kindest people they have ever met, even more evident that even Mythag students and faculty would seek him due to his comforting presence. A healing glow that he himself has, even without using The Blessing. The Keeper could only look in awe and bask in his glow when they spend time together. They would wish that they could just stay in his warmth for a long time but that is only a luxury perhaps the church goers can have.
As a Keeper, they knew calm, peaceful days are the minority. To go to investigations is the main job. To handle and neutralize dissolution is top priority. To indulge in such peaceful warmth for a long time is a crime for those who are suffering. This is what the Keeper signed up for in the Keygrave ceremony.
Salvador, with his knowledge from the All-Father, knew the Keeper, no, the Pale Flame, had the heaviest burden. As one of their linked Awakeners, he aims to always do his best to help the Keeper in his own way to ease that burden. To see the Keeper's pale flame continue to glow brighter is one of his purpose, after all.
Okay so this is the first time I wrote and posted any kind of fanfic on tumblr and I'm not even sure how to post or format this so please bear with me (kinda too shy to post anything based on my OCs on AO3 so this will be mainly on tumblr for now)
This first fic for @morimenswrite is entitled "Beginnings of a Silver-Haired Girl" based on the backstory of my Keeper OC.
I wrote this with my barebones memory of what Mythag University does so it might be wrong at times.
------------------------------------------
Silver.
Mythag University have been researching the use of Silver in their technology ever since the university's inception.
But this is the first time they encountered a being, no, a person with actual hair made of silver.
How is it possible? Then again, finding her in the ■■■■■■■ explosion was already a mystery on itself, this person might be not a person at all.
A young lady with hair made of pure silver. But the impurities and imbalances of her body makes her hair susceptible to contamination as her body also produces black liquid that are just like dissolution slime. The lady is still unconscious but at least the researchers know she is still alive.
To know more about this girl, is to make her body be stabilized enough to help her awaken. The conflict of silver and D-slime truly is like an oxymoron in her vessel. They are determined to see her eyes open.
Researcher ■■■■■ spearheaded the research, analyzing the girl's vitals and genetic makeup. Despite the two huge anomalies in her biology, she is still mostly human. Perhaps a unique human. But as more tests and days go by, with days comes to weeks, to months and years... the girl still hasn't woke up from it's slumber.
They slowly determined that perhaps the amount of black liquid and the balance of silver might be causing this. Perhaps her whole being needs something much different than what normal humans would need to wake up. So they experimented even more.
-----
In the three years they have worked on her, "she" has finally woken up from her slumber. They gave her the name "Kirie", a name fitting for a being of miracle. Her hair isn't fully silver anymore, as it has patches of black along it's silvery streaks.
It took her a bit to adjust to being awoken, as her 3-year slumber have made her truly weak. She slowly learned how to walk and eat on her own, thanks to the doctors in the university.
They also made her officially a student, but wasn't allowed to interact with other students as her own wellbeing and physical health weren't stable enough to be introducing new variables. Within the year, she was able to move to places on her own and do many things on her own, to the relief of the researchers.
Slowly, they allowed her to go beyond of Mythag, as long as she was monitored remotely by Mythag in case of emergency. She wandered through streets of Londinium, where the smell of food were all around.
She eventually found herself in front of the Church of Redemption and went inside.
Feelings of wonder rush into her as she looked all around. She eventually sat on the nearest pew to absorb the awe that she felt. There were songs that played in the farther areas of the church that resonated all around the place that was soothing for her. Slowly, she drifted to sleep.
--------
She felt a warm hand on her shoulder. She opened her eyes and saw a figure towering over her. Her eyes are not focusing well immediately.
"Child, it seems that you have drifted to sleep. I don't see you around here often, are you perhaps new here?"
She squints her eyes. Despite the multiple attempts to clear her eyesight, it remains blurry.
"Are you alright, dear?" Said the deep, caring voice.
She was embarrassed to admit she needed help. Then a slight blue light have appeared in a flash, that after it's appearance, stabilized her eyesight. She sees a man's gentle smile in front of her. She was still quite shy to look fully at the man's face.
"Th-thank you, sir.."
"In this place, everyone is welcome. Perhaps the All-Father guided you here. Welcome, dear lamb."
She looked at her pocket watch. It was getting late.
"Nice to meet you, and thank you for the welcome as well... but I need to go now. Sorry for falling asleep in a public place.."
"Do not worry, little lamb. Your comfort is always the All-Father's priority. You are always welcome to rest in His house. May you have a safe trip back to where you came from."
"Thank you, sir..."
She did a curtsy and hurriedly left as she was aware of the curfew that was imposed on her by the university. The Priest that saw her off made a small smile on his face.
"What an interesting individual..."
----------
When she arrived in front of Mythag's gates, the researchers were looking sternly at her.
"I'm truly sorry for being late, sirs and madams. I really did not mean to fall asleep outside of Mythag. I accept any kind of punishment for my tardiness..."
She immediately was taken to the lab to make some tests on her. She didn't really mind it as she was used to this but she was quite unsure why she was thoroughly examined once more... perhaps it was due to her passing out during the trip outside Mythag.
The researchers found out that the balance of Dissolution and her Silver essence within her changed drastically while she was outside but was eventually balanced out by some sort of miracle during the trip as well.
Ever since that day, she was not allowed to go out for a while until she is able to fully go without her chemical imbalance being a detriment to her trip.
During those days being quarantined, she couldn't forget the nice man whose voice comforted her in the church and helped her when she was having a bit of trouble...
The art is based on his birthday letter where he invites the player for a tea party (in the indoor garden that he tended) for his birthday because the flowers are in bloom just in time for his birthday!
I just really think it's so sweet of him to tend an indoor garden in Mythag that you can always visit... and he even thought of your suggestions on the tea you two will be having the tea party...
Some doodles I did for the Timely Salvador (on twt) novena countdown (should I make one for here too? Sounds hard to manage 2 sites of the same content...)
Okay so a few days ago, tumblr was banned in my country, the Philippines (more of an ISP blocked tumblr due to being tagged as a /gambling/ site by it)
Which was honestly weird since it was only blocked when you use that specific ISP... and there are like... 5+ different ISPs in the Philippines...
I didn't even know it was banned in the Philippines during the lasy few days due to me using a different ISP than the one that blocked tumblr.
Still kinda weird for the PH to block it at that pretense.
I heard the ban has been lifted by now though, yay!
