@ichorveined ♥’d for a starter and asked for ;
arjuna [ ... ] for himegil
“ YOU ARE DIVINE ... and not divine. ” the pandava spoke these words after a short up-and-down scrutinisation of gilgamesh, after which he was unable to fully comprehend her DIVINE STATUS. a case like hers was not common in his previous life ... and if there had been an equivalent before, he hadn’t had a chance to notice before that equivalent had been TRAMPLED UNDERFOOT.
“ explain. ”

✼ ✼ WUTHERING ✼ ✼ …
--- ❝ Must you be so dramatic? ❞ Her symphony of FOND laughter echoed around them as his hand ensnared her gloved one ; silken smoothness brushing over his skin and for that brief moment, Emily longed to rid herself of the infernal garment --- so that she might feel the CARESS of him against her. Cheeks darkened a this PREPOSTEROUS thought and the novelist shook her head a little, very nearly stumbling over her own two feet when they came to the centre of the dance floor.
Sweeping eyelashes fluttered with evident EMBARRASSMENT as she peered up at Gilgamesh ; worrying her bottom lip for a moment before speaking. ❝ ...It has been quite a long time since I have last danced with someone... ❞
✼ ✼ ✼
@ichorveined: she had courage, he'd give her that. denying him was a mortal sin in his eyes, but he'd let it go for now. " i chose to escort you, that is all. it is my decision, and my word is law. therefore, you /will/ accompany me to the gala. whether or not it is worth my time is for me to decide. "
✼ ✼ ✼ ASK THE NOVELIST /// ACCEPTING.
--- ❝ A-Are you certain? ❞ AGAIN, there was an absence of irritation in the face of his demands, as she could note the SINCERITY to be garnered in his crimson glare --- Gilgamesh genuinely DESIRED her attendance ( though he would never admit to it aloud ) & this revelation was certainly a SHOCK to her but a pleasant one. Soon, ever so slowly, the nervousness & anxiety that had permeated her heart was dissipating ; rose - pink dancing along the slender bridge of her nose as she stared up at him in amazement. ❝ ...I truly hope it will be worth your time. ❞
Timidly so, Emily took a daring step forward to ENSNARE his hand within her own, dainty one --- smiling softly up at the man, DELIGHT soon crossing her angelic visage. ❝ Thank you, Gilgamesh. ❞
@ichorveined: " wordsmith! " and there he is, the embodiment of ARROGANCE himself, waltzing in as if the world and everything in it were his. ( though perhaps, maybe they WERE. ) " i have decided that i will be your ESCORT to this ' gala '. DENYING ME is not an option. i can provide suitable attire for you if you have none. "

--- Had she heard him CORRECTLY ??? The abrupt arrival of the KING was already a notable shock to her system but then he had spoken those words and it rendered the novelist MUTE with evident disbelief. Her half - smile frozen, doe - like eyes wide and struck with BEWILDERMENT, though remaining ever bright in their golden - amber in the lowlight of the library --- of which she had been hiding within. As a servant, she was rather quiet in most regards, preferring her own solitude ( as she had in life ) but whenever someone like GILGAMESH, the epitome of unbridled power and arrogance, was around, such a thing proved to be impossible. Here she was now, SHOCKED and gaping like a fish --- taking a moment to process what he had just demanded of her.
Usually she would be ANGERED by the fact that this was an ORDER --- & he had no right to assert DOMINANCE over her.
However, Emily was too rattled to feel anything beyond astonishment and...how FLATTERED she soon was ???
❝ M-My escort? To...To the gala? ❞ Her whisper danced from plump, parted lips --- length of lashes fluttering rapidly ; soon, she was rising out of her seat, tendrils of wavy hair escaping her intricate bun and framing her face delicately --- a pure expression of her INNOCENCE and lack of experience in dealing with such a situations, especially when it was alongside the flush of scarlet that flamed upon her cheeks. ❝ I-It was never my intention to attend, actually...I-I’m not one for social gatherings and...you really shouldn’t command me to attend. ❞
There was a momentary FIRE of defiance in her eyes, which was common to see during their interactions, but it was soon extinguished by her present NERVOUSNESS.
❝ Why...Why do you wish to escort me, though? Surely you could ask another servant...Someone of...grandeur. ❞ She was a simply a HUMBLE writer ; summoning her had not been what her master had desired and whilst she was an EFFICIENTLY powerful servant, she did not hold a candle to someone like Gilgamesh or most of the other heroic spirits --- Emily averted her somber gaze as these thoughts penetrated her mind, shoulders sagging as she breathed a sigh. ❝ I truly appreciate your offer and I would accept but I feel...that your time spent there would not be enjoyable if you were to go with me. ❞
Her smile was one of SOLEMNITY ; one of acceptance for what she believed to be something that had ended before it even begun.
She was truly unaware of his intentions.
❝ Thank you for your kind invitation, Gilgamesh, but I must decline. ❞
@ichorveined: gil's just going to scoop her up princess style. " did you miss me, my queen? "
✼ ✼ ✼ ASK THE NOVELIST /// ACCEPTING.
--- JOYOUS countenance reflected the sheer INTENSITY of her delight as she was swept up ; feeling SECURE within the cradle of his arms & winding her own around his shoulders, soft fingertips gliding upward to sift through his GOLDEN strands. ❝ Oh, I missed you so much, Gilgamesh! ❞ MORE than mere words could describe and Emily couldn’t stifle the brightness of her smile, amber eyes alight with happiness. This was the man whom held her heart ; who she had bestowed her UNDYING love to without a moment’s hesitation and to be in his arms once again was a WONDROUS thing to bask in.
It was with the most LOVING of tenderness that Emily leaned up & pressed the plush curves of her lips to his, hum of CONTENTMENT breathed ever so softly as she kissed him.

— Faint smile tugged at her lips, to have such a beautiful woman compliment her. She wasn’t quite used to it, but was quite pleased by the others words. ❝Thank you, but they do not compared to yours.❞
" i would love to know her, my mother. but, alas, i fear she is lost to me forever. "
“I’m sure she would’ve loved to see the kind of man you grew up to be, Ur-Nungal. Who knows, maybe we can find some trace of her one day! Then you can learn more about her.”
" i have heard many call you a monster, but i cannot see how... "
@ichorveined (Ur)
—Medusa turned to find the one speaking, only for her gaze to shift down to a young boy. His hair on top of his head, was as bright as the son. And his eyes, were the shade of rubies. He reminded her of the King of Heroes, though he didn’t carry himself in the same way it seemed. Kneeling down, Medusa made herself at eye level with the boy. Even though, her gaze was hidden from his sight. ❝What you heard is true, I am a monster.❞ She stated, her voice a bit gentler than normal.❝But, you have no reason to fear me, little one.❞ Medusa added. She had no desire to harm the boy, for him to admit it was hard to see her as a monster. While, that was pleasant to hear.
