trick or treat! -efrmellifer

send an ask with "trick or treat!" for a fic-related surprise.

part of the rewrite of my DRK zine fic i'm working on!

A knock at the door shattered his reverie; he blinked to refocus—still holding the jar of earth shards, still not a damned clue what he could do with them—and glanced up toward the front door, and Hanami, who had climbed up onto the counter to reach an upper cabinet. “You going to get that?” he asked. She was right there, after all, and it wasn’t as though Sid was particularly well-known for his neighborly hospitality.

“Not my house,” she said, and slammed the cabinet door for emphasis. “Not my problem.”

He heaved a sigh and abandoned the crystals, inching past her perch on the counter so he could reach the door. At least it had sounded like a polite knock, rather than the pounding thud-thud-thuds that had echoed through the alleyways when irate Temple Knights were making their rounds.

The man on the other side of the door was an elezen, sort of knobbly with age and nearly swallowed by the frills on the green coat he wore. Sid felt his shoulders set before his conscious thought could quite catch up—those were Haillenarte colors, what did this man want—but before he could say anything the man offered a swift, shallow bow. “Begging your pardons, ser,” he said. “I do apologize for the disturbance. I am Focrineau, and it is my deepest honor to serve at the pleasure of Lord Francel de Haillenarte—though I fear I must also apologize for my brevity, as it is business regarding Lord Francel that brings me here. Might there be a Lady Hagane on the premises?”

Well, at least he made no bones about the fact that he didn’t give a rat’s arse about Sid, which was somewhat comforting. Though he was going to have a word with Hanami if her showing up here meant even more of her stiff-collared friends would be turning up at all hours. He turned to catch sight of Hanami with her forehead pressed to the bottom of the cabinet, obviously on the tail end of a sigh.

“Don’t know that I’d call her a lady, but aye, she’s here,” he said, and stepped away as Hanami hopped down from the counter. “For you,” he added, and sidestepped the elbow she tried to drive into his gut as she passed.

every time i see do not seek forgiveness as though it’s the moral of that story im just. sigh. you missed the point

the point of 70 isn’t do not seek to ease the burden. it’s not you should carry your pain with you, that it is somehow right and just and noble. it’s that it’s okay to hurt, yes, and to admit that you hurt

but, by that same measure, the only way to move forward is to forgive yourself. forgive yourself for hurting. forgive yourself for the things you have done. forgive yourself for the things you could not do. forgive yourself for surviving.

and remember, always remember, that you are still a good person.

Junelezen 3 - Job 

Karla began her journey first as a Conjurer in Gridania, then quickly became a Paladin while her traveling companion (and fellow Warrior of Light) focused on the healing arts. When they arrived in Ishgard after the Bloody Banquet, she found a strange teacher and a soul crystal, and was pulled along into the Abyss to be a Dark Knight, and threw herself into the job and what it meant wholeheartedly. 

At the battle of Ghimlyt Dark, she was struck down by Elidibus (using Zenos’ skin), and broke apart into crystal as the Exarch summoned her across the rift in an attempt to save her life. The battle left her severely wounded for months on end, and she took to using her Foxblade as a katana, and weilding her abyssal magic to deal damage instead of sticking to the forefront for most of the journey across Norvrandt. It was only after Vauthry’s defeat that she dared to pick up her Foxblade’s greatsword again, and use it to defeat Hades.
