Grandma ( @temerariious ) don't listen to Hathor ( @lovereflect ) , she's just a tattletale !!! 🎶 TATTLETALE , TATTLETALE !!!!!
unprompted ask // always accepting !! The air in the pit was thick with the scent of sweat and adrenaline, laced with the faint tang of blood that lingered like perfume on her tongue. Sekhmet slinked through the crowd, a lioness among cubs, golden headdress glinting under the flickering torchlight. Her lips, painted red like freshly spilled blood, curled in a half-smile as she scanned the masses, her gaze predatory, hungry. This wasn’t her world—but she’d peered through Hathor’s eyes long enough to know exactly who she was hunting tonight. Her eyes narrowed as she found him—him, the one who stank of blood and strength, raw and untamed. Her muscles tensed in excitement as she savored the challenge before her. She could smell the ferocity on his skin, a scent that called to her, taunted her. Without warning, she surged forward, pushing through the crowd, and leapt, pouncing on him with the fierce grace of a predator claiming its prize. She straddled him, pinning him down as a wicked gleam lit her eyes. Leaning close, she let her tongue trace a slow line along his cheek, tasting him, savoring his raw power. “So, you’re the one my other half is smitten with,” she purred, her voice dripping with a dark, teasing amusement. “ Hello — darling. ” ( teeheeeeee ♡ ) ( @lovereflect )
she came into view like a lioness among sheep, commanding the space with a polished beauty that was all sharp edges and implacable force. a sight that made his muscles tense, his brows furrow and his scarred tiers naught but pressed into a thin line. he had seen many challengers before, fighters who thought they could step into the pit and test their mettle against him [ ... ] but it was clear that she was not like them. she was not there for challenges. she was there to claim. and he, in his throne ( made of ash, of ichor, of bones ) was not prepared to face her unforgiving savagery.
before he could brace himself, she was on him, a blur of motion, a strike that came with the ferocity of a beast. her presence was immediately overwhelming: it was not only the strength that was undeniable; it was her scent ( spice and perilous ) that truly arrested him. he noted the wicked smirk on her tiers, the tongue that touched his cheek, electrifying him, sending a searing jolt that made him jaw tighten. his aureate spheres gave the first signs ⸻ they burned with an intensity that could have melted steel whilst she purred, her vocals rich with mischief he could not ignore. ❝ didn't realize i was on anyone's radar. ❞ his vocals dropped lower, dangerous, the mention of hathor immediately alarming him. his limbs still remained rested upon the arms of his throne, caring not about stopping her. ❝ but i find you bold for coming here and treating this place like it's yours. bold... ❞ he paused, finally leaning in whilst inclining his head up, inhaling what she exhaled. ❝ or reckless. ❞
@lovereflect sent a letter : ❛ ah , so you aren’t heartless after all. ❜ / prompt.
heartless? what ever could she be talking about? his temple is one of bounty, a flourishing grounds attracting many a worshipper, both devout and passing alike. though he doesn't visit them often, more often than not there are plates of fruit and meats at his altar, lilies and chrysanthemums cascading down the grand steps before his mounted portrait. it looks nothing like him, a shadow of a former life perhaps? centuries have passed since the last but even still, the humans grovel and beg for protection.
how silly. yixuan is not a god of grace. hardly even mercy.
just as all the fruits of life, time leaves waste to even the most opulent feast. luck is surely on these pitiful children, blessed by the mother of harvest, for they need not even venture into the groves for a meal today. a hand waves and he gestures for them to take from the pedestal, nods as they stare with hunger and uncertainty in equal measure. her voice is heard then, perhaps the goddess whose protection has earned them another day before the creature who knows only to take and take. yes, if he was left to his own devices, he surely would have swept their lives for diyu's dwindling pool of souls. or so he says.
" you are being ridiculous. i am simply making use of them before i'm left with a mess; cleaning rotted fruit is a chore. you should know, lady hathor. "

in the heart of the garden—where the air is moist and cool—the lotuses are in full bloom, blue petals unfurled and faces upturned towards the sky. here, the world is a riot of color, an offering to hathor's glory. kalim leans across the edge of a fountain, plucking a lotus and turning it over in his hands, inspecting its petals. ❝ have you ever eaten one ? when i was young, my mother taught me and my siblings how to take the roots and cook them with coconut milk, and how to eat them with coriander leaves and sesame oil. you can also make tea with just about every part of a lotus. ❞
he turns to hathor, blind to how casually he speaks with the goddess, as if they were old friends. ❝ you would like it, i think. i can teach you how to make it, if you ever want to try, ❞ he offers, placing the flower at her feet.
"It has been some time since I've met another person of my ... rank in 'society'. Though, I believe you are well above me, my fair lady. How are you? Last I heard, at least... in my world system, you had long since died."

give me a kiss ?
his heart skipped a beat simply by the sound of her vocals and the way she phrased the query like a question but with an underlying demand. his aureate spheres locked onto hers, a slow smirk pulling at his tiers, he took a step closer, closing the already small gap betwixt them, the sound of his footsteps almost drowned by the soft hum of music still playing somewhere in the distance. the small room was almost claustrophobic, but they found in it a shelter, far from the eyes of those who could break them apart. after all, in those whose money run through fingertips, whatever they had was naught but a sin.
❝ you can be so damn cute, y' know that? ❞ he whispered back, vocals low and rough, filled with a wicked edge, albeit his gaze darkened with intensity [ ... ] his spheres were daring, flickering to her ties and back, to her neck and lower, and back to the soft hitch in her breath. it was in one swift, fluid motion, that he closed the remaining distance, his large hand reaching up to cup the side of her face, his thumb grazing her cheek with surprising gentleness for a man of his size. but the other hand ⸻ the other hand was settling behind her leg, tugging it up to wrap around his waist, finding her tiers with his. the kiss was not soft or tentative. it was fierce, filled with the kind of pent-up passion that had been simmering betwixt them for too long. his tiers moved against hers with a hunger that spoke of everything he had held back, a raw need that he did not care to disguise anymore. and if it had not been for her stopping... he would have continued.

" Understanding our past determines actively our ability to understand the present . "
❝HMM…YOU SOUND LIKE those scribes I had to listen to as a child, Lady Hathor. Has Thoth rubbed off on you?❞ He huffed, closing the book in his hand and placing it to the side. There was a great deal about this new era he didn’t quite understand. He had the knowledge of things, but not how they functioned, necessarily. To him, a train was a steel box that moved with magic, and yet, the knowledge the Grail had bestowed upon him said otherwise. It was…fairly perplexing, honestly. ❝But you are correct, as to be expected,❞ he added the latter afterwards with a slight bow of his head, almost a tease hidden behind the politeness of his tone and the curvature of his lips. ❝In order to learn a plethora of things, from better governance, to avoiding mistakes made previously, knowing and understanding the past are vital to molding the present.❞ He couldn’t say that he was necessarily pleased with the present he saw, though. ❝A shame, it seems, that in this newfound era, that tends to be forgotten.❞

the goddess simply wanders in to confiscate - no. borrow a sphinx for official love goddess business. Ozy does not see her , no matter what his eyes show him.
SOMETHING WAS…GOING ON here. Ozymandias wasn’t sure what that was, but he felt like something was off with this room. As he looked around, though, he didn’t see anyone or anything that would alert him in any way, and so for the life of him, he couldn’t figure out this bizarre feeling he had sitting in his gut. Hmm…maybe he was being paranoid. He needed a nap.
