Continued from this open starter with @justifiablesin

Kly squinted at the person standing over her. She vaguely remembered seeing him at Haven during the fight, but it felt like more a blurred resemblance. He was young, or at least, he appeared to be young. There was something very...off. Not only in his appearance but in how he moved and how he spoke. She couldn’t place it though. It was only slightly different and unnatural, but perhaps that was the analgesics she’d been given. She took a deep breath to speak but gritted her teeth as another sharp shard of pain lodged itself in her chest. A healer came over to her and seemed to not notice him. And then he moved in a flash. Immediately, Kly thought she was still dead. Still talking to her demon. Nothing human moved like that. She flinched as he stood next to her, her eyes wary. This wasn’t her demon. No, this was something else. The healer checked her pulse and sent a soothing wave of pain-relieving magic through her body. Without her direction, her body sagged and relaxed, the tension in her body melting away despite her wariness of her “guest”.

She listened as she spoke and was, oddly enough, reminded briefly of Uldred and one of his lectures about creatures of the Fade. He made sure she was able to discern what was a real perception and what was an illusion before her Harrowing. He’d said something similar. That all Fade beings were hypersensitive to emotion, some were leeches and others were more symbiotic in nature. It was important, he told her, to be able to discern this as a blood mage since her connection to the Fade would be warped by such a raw and powerful form of magic. She wasn’t sure yet what this one was. He hadn’t yet latched onto her, so she was less convinced this was some demon.

“What are you?” she managed to ask. “Why are you here with me?” She took a moment to suck in a few breaths. “Am I dying again?”

“appearances are oft deceiving.” / @justifiablesin​

Ah, they certainly could be ——— but such is the way that beings like them must live; as shadows of their truest selves (hiding amidst the normalcy of mankind, seemingly lesser than what they were), lest the world bear witness to the untimely destruction of all it had ever known.

From what he has gleaned of her aura, beating in sync with the universe’s pulse, this lingering (doomsday) omen was somewhat similar to his own ——— and yet, she appeared no differently to him than that of a small girl, just as he appeared no differently to her than that of a young man. The truth of it, of course, was naturally more complex than that. But…

“You still chose to approach me, in spite. I believe that in itself says more than you think.” A (warm) smile blossoms ‘pon the seraph’s face soon after, hands drawn calmly ‘round the back. Worry not, little one — he had no reason to deceive.

Queen Brahne had left this world — and consequently, the responsibilities of Queen would soon be in Garnet’s hands. Too soon, she thought, still trying to come to terms with everything that had happened. The threat of her mother using Alexandria for malevolent purposes was gone, but Kuja was still out there. And as long as he was, others were in danger of falling prey to him. 

She shook her head at that. Thinking about such negative things at a time such as this wasn’t good for her heart. She had managed to sneak out of the castle for a while, without Steiner and Beatrix’s knowledge, but she was sure they would be coming for her soon enough. It was better to enjoy the little freedom she had, for now — try to cool her head and soothe the pain she felt at the loss of her mother.

Opening her mouth, she started to softly sing — the melody she had learned in Madain Sari all those years ago still her go-to when it came to calming herself down. However, it didn’t take long for footsteps to catch her attention.

Brown eyes looked to find the familiar face — not Steiner or Beatrix, to her delight, but rather the one she wanted to see the most. She hadn’t seen him since they had gotten back — hadn’t been allowed to, rather, due to Steiner’s overprotective nature. But now there he was, standing in front of her. 

After a moment, she averted her eyes, a frown making its way to her face.

“ Zidane. I... what should I do? Do I even have what it takes... to be Queen? ”

@justifiablesin​ liked for a starter!

A familiar environment, in a not so familiar town. Having grown up in a lodge made it somewhat easy for the brunette to blend in, and having the opportunity to earn some gald on foreign grounds made it all the better since this tavern just so happened to be short staffed.

Though, was it a good coincidence?

“Ah, I’ve got your peach sorbet right here!” she was running and weaving between the tables. Doing her best to meet with demands as lunch rush was halfway through.

Leia maintained communication with the people who did show up for their shifts, and although there were times when she fumbled on her words or made little mistakes here and there, due to her clumsiness, some customers were still satisfied with her bright and cheerful disposition. It wasn’t until the last hour of the lunch rush, did her clumsiness get the better of her and the brunette managed to trip over her own foot.

“Ah--Oh no!” she gasped, falling forward as the teen tries to adjust the position of her wrist to hold the tray flat on the palm of her hand.

❝Aha, your plan has been- Oh, you're the wrong person. Ah! I am so so so so sorry.❞

Sirena's cheeks flamed up in red from the embarrassment. How can she catch the wrong guy?

This man looked nothing like the person she was chasing after. For a second or two, her mind wander off if she mistakenly saw her target go this way, but decided to brush it off. It is confirmed that he went this way. She saw it with her own two eyes for two minutes straight. From a distance. Creepy if one didn't know her job, which is a detective. She should have been better in tracking her target down.

Her hand moved upwards to rub the back of her head.

❝Have ya seen a man with a strange-looking coat coming this way? Red coat that looks like it isn't fitting for winter.❞

@justifiablesin​   ⚡   asked:   ‘   pardon my enthusiasm.   ‘ (from Roxas, likely extremely sarcastic haha)

Larxene’s   eyes   narrowed   at   the   younger   recruit’s   tone.      Not   only   did   she   HAVE   TO   TAKE   CARE   OF   HIM   TODAY,      but   she   had   to   deal   with   the   attitude   as   well.      The   urge   to   shock   him   a   bit   was   strong,      but   the   idea   of   being   lectured   by   Xemnas   was   enough   to   quench   her   violent   impulse.      “      Just   for   THAT,      I’m   going   to   have   you   show   how   enthusiastic   you   are.      We’re   not   leaving   this   place   until   we’ve   gotten   EVERY   LAST   HEARTLESS   gone   from   this   town,      got   it   ???      ”      And   she   did   not   intend   to   be   very   helpful.      She   would   have   to   be   OUT   HERE   for   a   little   while   longer,      but   to   stick   it   to   Roxas   and   his   mouth   would   be   worth   it.

@justifiablesin​​ ;; STARTER - CULLEN :

                                    ≾ SHE’D  BURSTED  INTO  THE  WAR  ROOM  with  a  sense  of  urgency  that  had  Cullen  very  nearly  jumping  from  his  seat---  VIVIENNE,  that  is,  who  was  usually  content  enough  in  the  secluded  space  of  the  Skyhold  balcony,  where  she  could  turn  her  nose  up,  undisturbed,  at  those  she  viewed  as  BENEATH  her.  Alas,  she  had  come  all  the  way  down  in  search  of  the  Inquisitor,  but  in  their  leader’s  absence,  Cullen  ‘  would  suffice,  ‘  as  she  had  claimed.

               ---  and,  now,  he  stood  rather  AWKWARDLY  at  the  top  of  the  stairs,  in search  of  the  one  named  ‘  COLE.  ‘  Voicing  Vivienne’s  complaint  certainly  wasn’t  at  the  TOP  of  the  priority  list,  but  she  would  KNOW  if  he  neglected  to  pass  along  the  word.  Still,  there  had  to  be  someone  better  SUITED  to  the  task  than  the  COMMANDER  OF  THE  INQUISITION.

                      “  Cole?  Uh...  it’s  Cullen.  I  need  to  have  a  word  with  you,  if  you’re...  even  around.  “ ≿

“Do you really presume to know me well enough to understand the code I live by?”

He remembered this one, from the Tournament of Power...  Another of the pests from Universe 7.  She seemed...  Different somehow, though-- beyond just the wardrobe change.
