why are we whispering?

"If they hear us," Jamie whispers, "they're gonna know we're in here." It's not against the rules to be in the first team building after hours, but Jamie doesn't particularly want to find out how Roy will react to him sticking around this late, especially with training early the next morning. "C'mon, amigo, it'll be fun. You and me, night footy, it'll help with the senses, not being able t'see shit. Like bats, y'know? You in?"

@artisanals / isa said: wear the ( suit ) i gave you tonight .

HIS BROWS RISE SLOWLY, a silent challenge all of their own; he is not accustomed to being told how to dress. he has never allowed it from anyone, either — but she's been kind enough to gift him something and he's curious to see how her taste aligns with his. if at all.

isabela had the haughty air of a spoiled housecat; she moved from place to place as if she had been begged to attend, as if no room could be full or complete unless she deigned to stand in it and glower. teddy would have asked her if her royal highness had dropped her tiara somewhere, but he had a feeling she'd have simply said yes, fetch it at once, peasant.

it's funny. he might like winding her up a mite too much.

"and what do i get out of it," he says, meeting her stare dead-on, "don't say the suit. i sure as shit didn't ask you for it — ah, my fucking manners. hold on: thank you for the suit, darling isa. i'm delighted to know you lie awake at night and stress over what i'm wearing."

@artisanals did not ask for this <3

❛ there was no way you could tell me he was right behind me? ❜ christine says, shoulders dropping before her whole body collapses, falling back on one of the walls with a dramatic sigh. ❛ you could've pinched me! just trip me next time i start talking trash about the captain, that'll hurt less than... whatever that was ! ❜

a kiss on the ankle.   ⤷   action by Sophie   [ @artisanals ].

It started in the privacy of his room,   a shy touch that blossomed into more,   and almost so quickly Larys nearly lost it much too early.   Attention like this was not something he was accustom to,   but he welcomed it,   though a bit awkward at first.   Hesitant to return the heat and passion but after their lips met a third time,   he felt his head grow hot and it was suddenly easy to lean in,   hand traveling up Sophie's back and into her hair.   Paper and pen hardened fingers wrap in her curls,   careful never to tug and only caress,   to guide them against each other.   Her kiss was soft against his lips,   though a quiet voice in the back of his mind was worried he was chapped;   rough against her smooth.   Even if that were true,   Sophie did not seem to let that dissuade her,   as moments later her hands fell to his sides with fingers seeking the edges of his pants and slowly lower did she travel-

Face grew hot as she then dropped to begin undoing his boots.   The thought of stripping off his footwear was more difficult than ridding himself of the rest of his clothes,   and he initially pulled away,   like an anxious twitch to move a few inches from her hands.   Though Sophie coaxed him to calm from a look.   As she works the other foot,   he leaned down to unbuckle his specialized boot,   with his mind momentarily on getting the things off so it would be easier to lose his pants,   and that he wouldn't kick anything or anyone with a hard edge.   Though being so close to her again,   face close to hers he took in her scent and the smell of soap and sweat from her earlier practice,   the nerves faded once more.  

“You are being too kind to me,   my lady.”   He speaks softly into her ear as the boots and socks are taken off and set aside,   only being made to sit back in his chair as she lifts his leg.   “You need only ask.”   Assuming she wants him to sit back and get his pants off,   he goes to his belt to help her with the perceived goal,   but stops short when silk-smooth hair brushed against exposed skin and how her hand yet to loosen its hold.   It was when she leaned in to kiss bare ankle that he let out a shaken sigh and eyes go wide.   He felt truly speechless then.   His face had returned to a comfortable pink,   but cheeks were blazed in a full blush that extended to his collarbone.   Oh,   how he felt on top of the world and underneath her all at once.   Sophie had him at her mercy when,   moments ago,   he felt he had her at his,   and it made Larys' lips twitch to a smile.

“You do not need to do that,”   words were spoken with a breathlessness that was not there previously,   “come,   get off your knees.   I want you up here.”   He reached for her hand then,   gently pulling Sophie up and onto his lap.

@artisanals sent : ❝ i need you…i can’t do this by myself. ❞   / valarr

when her lady had come bearing the news of valarr and matarys too having fallen victim to this plague, jena's heart had nearly stopped. and in a moment of selfishness had nightly begged her gods to not inflict such cruelty, to not force her to live through the loss of her sons. not after losing her husband just months prior. but would it not be equally unbearable to force her sons to lose both parents in such a short time?

and yet the relief, oh, the relief, when they recovered from this terrible sickness that still dug its claws further into her whole being. that must be how now, in this room filled with a gentle simmering despair as recovery had long since been deemed impossible, the first sight upon awakening from fitful slumber was her precious eldest son. he ought not be here, even if there was no longer any sort of possibility to catch this illness once more. he ought not take risks, for there could always be exceptions.

hand reached for his, trembling as fevers still ravaged her body, mother's instinct to comfort outweighing any exhaustion that would normally lull her back to sleep. " i am sorry, my darling. i am trying," and she was. but what to do when her health had already been so frail, leaving her ill-equipped to fight 'gainst this dreadful thing? " you will not have to, even without me; you have your uncles and your brother. they will all help you, if i cannot be by your side. "
