Just Ben with DDLC Just Monika OST

Ben: I hate when JC programmes me into a non-dateable character, despite the fact that I’m the oldest character they created. So, I created this universe with just you and me.

How Marina got her scar

Location: Ice vault Time: Last semester of the 2nd year

Tw: slight gore, (like a deep cut on a cheek) it's honestly not a lot but rather safe than sorry

The adrenaline pumping trough her veins and the clashing of metal on metal was the only thing Marina could focus on.

As the knight that guarded the ice vault took another step forward, striking with his sword once more, Marina took a jump back, almost losing her feet at the edge of the staircase. Before her mind registered what was going on, she ducked to dodge a horizontal attack from the knight's sword.

Sadly, getting back up straight was more difficult thanks to the thick layer of ice that coated the entire room.

She could vaguely hear her friends, shouting encouragements as she took on the ice knight. If Acacius was able to beat this, then so could she.

She jumped down the few steps in hopes of giving herself a moment to breathe. She was used to running and dodging relentless attacks from someone who wants to harm her, but sword fighting was something entirely new.

She looked behind her, hoping to finally spot her wand that the knight had slapped out of her hands at the start of their battle. It rolled of to somewhere but Marina could not figure out where, and a mere second year couldn't just accio an object they can't even see.

She had considered asking one of her friends to throw their wand, but given the ice they were covered in, it was clear as day that wasn't an option.

An unforseen attack from the knight send her tumbling on the ground, barely able to hold the sword she was holding over her chest as she tried to defend herself.

Unfortunately, the tip of the knight's sword slashed the left side of her face. Marina tried to supress a groan as her whole face felt like it was on fire, faintly registering the blood dripping down her cheek and onto her white cardigan.

She felt her grip falter as she finally noticed it, right up ahead, her wand. All she needed was turn her hand towards it and use accio but if she let even one hand go she knew she'd be done for.

So she did the only thing that she could think of, she allowed the tip of the sword to cut into her cheek even further as she rolled herself to her right side, the knight's sword connecting to the ground.

Instead of wasting time to scramble to her feet, Marina used her momentum and her sword to sweep the legs right out from under the ice knight. That move finally granted her enough time to reach her right hand out towards the wand.

"Accio wand!" She called out, the wand seemingly just as impatient to be reunited with it's owner as she quickly looked at the knight that was starting to get up.

"Bombarda!" She yelled, the spell sending the knight into the wall before it started so melt away, as if the metal itself was ice in the summer sun.

"Marina, are you okay?!" Ben called out to his friend, unable to look at her left cheek, which was bloodied and cut open multiple layers of skin.

"I'm fine," She said, trying to move her mouth as much as possible as she focused on getting her friends out of the ice. After checking out the contents of the ice vault, she'd have enough time to let Madam Pomfrey tend to her.

a rushed kiss before one party leaves for... ??? { modern!ben & valkyrie!b- maybe she's flying off again }

@kylo-wrecked

Brunnhilde perched on the side of Ben's current bed. He'd had a few over the months, each a California King and each sporting a different view. They all had the same white-noise air-conditioned hotel hum. The same bleached bright sheets.

"I have to go." A murmur into dark hair. A kiss to a temple. "Duty calls."

She smelled of honey and silk. Her spine itched. A leash pulled. She could have vanished and had him thinking her a dream - or a phantom cursed to always have somewhere else to be. Instead, she stood and dragged the sunrise with her. Two ravens preened at the window.

This was as rushed as Brunnhilde was prepared to be with Ben. Ben, who she thought beautiful with his dark hair and his odd angles.

If he reached out to grab her, she wasn't sure she'd be able to wrestle herself free. And she wasn't sure she'd want to.

I have some issues with the naming conventions in Star Wars

Mostly, the use of Biblical names in a Galaxy Far Far Away kind of drives me up the wall. I’m a strictly 60s-onward science fiction/speculative fiction fan at heart, and the fact that no lamp-shading, discussion, or other mention of how it came about that literally lightyears away from Earth names like “Luke” and “Ben” are in any way common when you then have shit like “Lando” or “Han” (or “Poe” which I’ve only ever encountered on Earth as either 1. a teletubby or 2. a nickname for the name “Virginia”). Even Leia is kind of sketchy given that Leah is a biblical name as well. 

[to be clear, I’m not demanding a complete Tolkien-level of explanation about naming conventions here. I’ll let “Darth Vader” slide, because Vader is 1. a weird sounding name in English and 2. a lampshade.]

But all this is to say, I refuse to believe that the “Ben” in “Ben Solo” is actually short for “Benjamin”. I think he has a weird single syllable space name like his father.
