🔪 - ardyn

A pained cry is torn from her throat as the blade enters her stomach, her blue eyes widening with fear and confusion. Her hand flies to Ardyn’s shoulder to steady herself as she glances down to where his hand was pressed against her, crimson beginning to stain both the white linen of her dress as well as his fingers. “Why?” Is the best she can manage as the world begins to darken around the edges. The times they spent together flashed through her mind as she tried to find a reason for the man she loved so dearly to do this. She feels herself slipping, her legs no longer supporting her weight and she collapses onto him fully, driving the blade ever forward. Why would he do this? He loved her back, didn’t he?

”Who’re you talking to? You do realise you’re all alone down here, right?” - ardyn

Had she been talking? She’d been alone for so long, in the dark, cold and damp. How long had she been here? Her mind buzzed with questions as the familiar voice found its way into her mind. Was he real? Or was he another phantom conjured from loneliness and silence? 

If she allowed herself to hope, something she’d long lost her grasp on, then he was real, and he was here to save her from her unending nightmare. If he wasn’t, then what was there to lose? She’d been alone for so long, even the phantoms of her imagination came infrequently now. “Ardyn..?” Her voice feels rough with disuse, it feels wrong to speak here. Had she really been talking before? “Is it..really you?”

“You tell me the truth and you walk out of here. It’s that simple.” - ardyn

Tears blur her eyes as she trembles, bound to the wall and unable to escape. Even if she had the capability, there was still the fact that it was Ardyn. Her love for him hadn’t faded, if anything it had grown in their time apart. The man who stood before her however, seemed but a shadow of the man she knew. 

“I’ve told you everything, Ardyn, will hearing it again make it any easier?” Her voice wavered, strained from the hours of crying, the hours of begging him to understand. She’d never meant for any of this to happen, surely he knew that. 

“I’m so sorry, I should have been there for you. I should have helped take on the star scourge, so that the crystal would still accept you. I’m sorry I told Somnus you were meant to be King.” She sobbed, her voice cracking as she stumbled upon her apology once more. 

“Please, I love you.” Her blue eyes met with his as tears spilled down her cheeks. Its her final plea, she knows he’ll either keep his promise, or end it here. She can only hope for forgiveness for a series of events that she couldn’t have predicted, or ever hoped to stop once set in motion.

Omg, Cullen X Jim...I see a lot of the fics where Jim is admiring him from afar, but can you imagine a confident Jim?? :D

This is a very old message, but oh my goodness it made me laugh so hard even after all this time.

I kind of miss writing Cullen x Jim fics, honestly xD And a confident Jim would just be the most amusing thing to write. Maybe one of these days.

I think your writing is really great, and hope you keep it up! I especially wanted to know how the Fenris story is going to end.

Awww thank you, Anon! It makes me really happy to hear that you enjoy my writing! And sorry for the very late response - I have a sneaking suspicion that this has been hiding in my inbox for a while now.

I do plan to keep on writing my stories. The problem is finding the time and motivation to get them done. I’m in the middle of so many projects right now (art, writing, videos, organizing) that I find it takes forever to get to things.

I most definitely want to keep writing about Ionna and Fenris though because they are so perfect together and they give me life 8) Not to mention they are really fun to write!

Hope you’re having an amazing day <3 <3 <3

enaykin replied to your photo “So, I actually did some traditional art today. Excuse the iffy...”

Oh! I love greyscale pieces with a hint of color! This looks so nice!

@enaykin Aww thank you so much <3 I’m so used to drawing on my tablet that it felt sort of strange to draw with an actual pencil xD

Instead of going Anonymous just to send nasty messages to people that you don’t even know, maybe you should take a bit of time to think about how shitty of a person that makes you.
