plotted starter for @heiressofwater​

         HIS FIRST THOUGHT inevitably began as something close to regret. Seeing that tiny child, her fingers still grasping at the once ( proud ) empress’ skirts, was enough to send a pang through his chest for the path that had led him to his madness: a path, that he foresaw, but still, when it came, could not escape the guilt nor the shame. 

         PERHAPS THIS IS WHY, even after Shenmei’s death, he persisted in his visits, hidden as they were. Magic was useful in many ways, the cloaking enough to leave him undetected with the budding songstress who was left there, forgotten, the war between the concubines barely just beginning. 

         KNOCKING ON THE DOOR lightly with the back of his fist, Anankos entered the tiny room to see Aqua, her watery eyes gazing up at him with unimaginable sorrow. ❝ Aqua, ❜ he whispered, getting down on his knees and taking the hood off his head. ❝ It’s me. ❜ He said with a ( smile, ) extending his hands out for her to hold. 

        ❝ I know this must be hard, Aqua ... you are allowed to be angry, and to be sad. But know this: I will be here for you. I will protect you from anyone who wishes to harm you. ❜

     “I accept the challenge. Besides, you’d look so pretty with braided hair, Mother!”

     “I bet Father would faint on the spot.”

[heiressofwater] i want the k // Its her birthday, obligatory kiss memes for birthday girl!

9: Jawline Kiss

Benny stood there, barely breathing. Is this even okay? Does he have the right to touch such a lady like Lady Aqua. She is kind and beautiful, but he wants to. He just hopes that he doesn’t offend her. 

He cup her neck and gently tilted her head up. He bent down and hesitated, his warm breath tickling her skin and he kissed her on the jaw, barely…just barely touching the side of her lips.

As he pulled away and looking into Lady Aqua’s eyes, in a gruff but soft voice, he whispered, “Happy Birthday, Lady Aqua.”

[heiressofwater] Mother's Touch?

The Queen had the strong urge to suddenly hug her beloved granddaughter, but she merely ignored it to speak, “Aqua, you are so beautiful. All I see when I look at you is your mother. You are beautiful lady who can only grow to become more beautiful. You dancing is stunning as is your singing. Make sure to point your toes and straighten your knees~,” the Queen chuckled, jewels from her elaborate headpiece chiming.

“I can only pray that you will slay Hydra and bring piece to our kingdom and rule it as the next Queen or Empress when it is time. Your mother may have failed, but I’m sure you can do it. You have a strong will, Aqua. Ignore the people in Nohr. They may try to kill you, like the man who tried to kill you but took your mother instead, but they cannot harm a fearless princess. The world is your oyster and I love you.”

@heiressofwater liked for a starter~!

||~||          He often heard in rumors and word of mouth of how she was doing in Hoshido, the girl that was kidnapped from Nohr. So it was a mediocre surprise when he found her walking away from the camp of tents and soldiers.

          Well, he first spotted Aqua when he accepted to join Kaumi’s army. She was standing beside Kaumi with a dull face. But he never said anything to her, not any at all really. He was very bitter, but he knew what he had to do, and he had to put an end to his father’s plans. 

          But now he wandered off, following Aqua from the busy town of resting tents and into a more calm place. The calm of the meadows and fields suited her, in his opinion. He hadn’t seen her in.. so long. He felt a little nostalgic. 

          It would be rude of him to stay standing there with out making himself announced, so he coughed into his fist, a rather awkward look on his face as he took a few short steps forward, “Aqua?” He tested her name. It’s been a long time since he spoke it, “It’s been awhile. I’m sorry to intrude, but, I was curious to see if it was really you,”

[heiressofwater] “Why, Hello there.“

                                     ⊰♐⊱ { “Why, Hello there.“ || ACCEPTING }

*.:｡♐ *ﾟ      It was perhaps all too apparent that he was feeling far from his comfort zone. Bumping elbows with noblemen of such a caliber never turned out well for him- a thief. So far as they were concerned; once a thief, always a thief. There were few in which he would take comfort being around, Sanne being one and…

     The other; the girl he vowed to protect with his life. A songstress with unrivaled talent, and serene beauty like one of many rivers and waterfalls and the pure blueness of the sky… All of that which reminded him of freedom and of his hometown wrapped up in one brilliant girl. When she glanced his way and caught his attention, a grin made its way across his cheeks; the trademark crooked smile he used to unwittingly charm everyone around him.

     Her yellow eyes holding his was enough for him to make his way over, nodding his head in a curt bow. “You’re looking pretty as always, Miss Aqua…” For lack of other things to say; he settled with that. A simple compliment from a simple man. If only he could vocalize everything he thought about her; but he was no poet and was not willing to try.

[heiressofwater] "What do you want for Yule again?"

                                     ⊰♛⊱ { Christmas Starters || ACCEPTING }

     “Ah, let’s see…” 

               Living a systematic life oft cut out frivolous expenditures of the holiday season, such as gift giving and gift getting. The yule time and Christmas were much better off spend with friends and family- if not with the allies of the army during war time.
