Doctor Who Femslash February, Day 22
Prompt- Crossover
@doctorwho-femslashfeb
Rose was stuck, stuck in a universe that was not her own. With a dimension canon that was taking longer to charge since the energy source was different here so the canon needed time to transfer the energy into something useable.
Sadly, she couldn't become a hermit in this universe. She needed a source of income and with her unique powerset it meant that joining a guild would probably be the best for her.
Enter; Fairy Tail. It was much easier to join than she would've initially thought. She just walked in, said she wanted join, they'd had her fill out a few papers, and then she got her guild mark in her chosen spot and color. (A deep blue on her collarbone.)
And it seemed that once more, she was in another universe where there wasn't another version of her. It was strange but a fact that she'd grown used to. There never was another version of her. Either because Pete and Jackie never had any children, they did but Jackie miscarried or the child died young, or they did have a version of her but it was a guy.
Rose was more then used to this fact. Just as she was used to people flirting with her, like Loke did. She knew he never meant any of it, could see it in his eyes which carried a weight of untold regrets. A weight that she was familiar with, after all, she saw it every time she looked in the mirror.
So she bantered with him, maybe flirted a little. She knew that in the end it would only lead to pain on one or both of their ends. After all, she could see the timelines of those who have lived a long time or will live a long time. Though Rose doesn't use this particular ability often, especially with those she chooses to interact with, too much knowledge of what will come can be dangerous.
And so it's easy to fall into a role, another mask to add to her ensemble. Because she is nothing if not adaptable. Act younger then she is, alter her appearance just a bit to make her look a bit older then what Bad Wolf made her look. Kind, but not naïve. There are a million and one things to make up this mask. The mask of Rose Prentice, 24 year old who has an unknown magic but is so incredibly sweet.
She's talented at making masks, it comes with living for hundreds of years and she wonders if the Doctor was like that too. If he's still like that, masking who he really is. But she knows he didn't do it with her, the TARDIS made sure to leave just a small enough link between her and the Doctor to know.
But that's not important. What is important is the fact that Natsu brought a new potential member in who looks so fascinated by the guild. Rose allows herself just the barest peek at the girl's timeline. Enough to gather how she should act around her and treat her.
She tilts the drink back in her hand, just a small bit of alcohol left in the cup as she stands. The girl- wait no, woman. The woman is talking with Mira about how to become part of the guild and Mira easily gives her the forms.
Rose casually sits next to her as she fills out the form. Neat handwriting a strike contrast to most of the guild's nearly illegible scrawl. She watches as the lasts of the forms are filled out. A neat swish that was clearly taught to her and had her memorize it until she could do it without thinking ending the paper.
Rose sipped on the remains of her drink casually as though she wasn't paying attention to the woman beside her. And yet she watches her out of the corner of her eye as she nervously waves down Mira and hands over the forms. Rose can practically see the thoughts running through her head as Mira takes the forms back.
And this is the perfect chance to introduce herself, "Hello."
Best to start simple, and yet the woman still jumps, it makes Rose furrow her brow as she quickly thinks back to what she'd seen. Until- ah.
She alters her voice to be softer, more kind. Rose lets part of her past self bleed into her voice, "Sorry, I uh- didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to let you know that Mira is just going back to archive the submission and make sure that most things check out. Oh! I'm Rose by the way, Rose Prentice. You are?"
It's a way for the woman to become comfortable and Rose can tell she's done a good job by the way her shoulders release the tension that was in them. The tension that seemed to be at home there, "I'm Lucy. Does she uh, have to check everything?"
Lucy's voice tilts up at the end- nervousness Rose realizes so she rushes to reassure her, "Nope. Say if you only put first name but no last, she won't ask. After all, we've got more then our fair share of people who don't want their past to find them.
A relieved sigh slips past Lucy's lips as she seems to become more energized, "So! What kind of magic do you use?"
Allowing a smirk to make itself on her face she says, "Don't know. My magic doesn't have a name, far as anyone can tell I'm the only one with this type." let a tinge of bitterness slip into her voice at the end, make it seem like that upsets her. Then change the subject, "What about you?"
Lucy, seeming to sense the fact that she wished to change the subject happily explains that she using Celestial Magic. How she makes contracts, and when Rose inquires about if the spirits are free to create a contract or can they refuse? Lucy seems to immediately know what she's asking and is in vehement protection of the fact that if a spirit does not wish to make a contract then they are more then free to refuse and people who force contracts are horrid.
I feel that this playlist, is very “girly” whatever that means to you (LOL) But, I guess this is the part where everyone says, “you’re such a girrrrllll” and the answer is I am surely am! (teehee) but these songs, are soooo good trust me guys! This playlist, really is for everyone, any gender, taste of music or anything you identify with, maybe if you just want some sweet mellow songs to jam out too in the long car ride, or need a heartbreak playlist, or even a relatable playlist in general for any kind of mood, in which you need a relaxing vibe for a hectic day. The first song is, Taylor Swift ‘Tim Mcgraw’, I am not a country fan like that at all, but she is the exception, it is so funny, because this song of hers, is perhaps, the most country one she wrote out of all of them, but it is such a soothing song, and the guitar in the background, is so well done with this song. Not like a typical, cheesy, country song at all, it is for sure poetic, heartwarming, and leaves you with that haunted feeling. I think like most people I discovered her through her many famous boyfriends in the beginning and her performing at awards shows, but now she is a legit artist in her own right.
The next song, on “the girly playlist” we shall call it, is by Jorja Smith, called ‘Teenage Fantasy’ she is an underrated British artist, and did a song with a super popular rapper, over there as well, named Stormzy, she made this widely popular song, about the struggles of just being alive in a time, where people take things and love for granted. I discovered, her through the rapper stormzy and realized her songs, feed my soul. <3 It’s really chill vibes, but has that weird Lana-Del-Rey spunk to it. It’s so funny, that most British artists lose their accent when they sing, but with Jorja, she remains her British accent very well, and it’s so cool to listen to it. Here it is, hope you listen and enjoy ;)
I also this literal, unknown artist, who is also a Brit (haha) her name is Lucy Rose, she made this song called, ‘Shiver’ and I first heard the song through randomly surfing through YouTube playlists, and just stumbled on it, literally did not have a lot of views, but I gave it shot, and it was so worth it. When I find songs that sound so good and that not a lot of people have listened to, it makes me happy, that I am helping these artists, through listening and clicking their songs, she actually wrote the song herself and produced/stars in the video, which btw, before you listen to it...WARNING! It is so heartbreaking :( when you see the story. But boy, is it worth understanding the message, of always living in the now. The song, is basically about how, a man still remembers his late wife, and watches back their old videos, of them young and flying a kite. Which his wife loved, he visits the exact same spot at old age, and hugs the kite, remembering the warmth she brought him (UGH SO FUCKING SAD...brb gonna go cry) :( anyways, here it is! xo
The next song is popular (obvi!) it is by Ariana Grande, called ‘POV’, her songs are so widely known, it almost you have to live under a rock to know them, since they are played everywhere, but this specific song, I came to know when I texted my friend, during COVID, and felt really lost, that I didn’t have an internship yet, and I think in our modern times, we define ourselves through our resumes and jobs. And this song, Ari is talking about how, it’s better to look at ourselves through the lenses of people that love us, rather than our own at times, because we are indeed....so hard on ourselves, it is a shame, we do this, but she herself wrote this song, during the aftermath of what was her ‘worst year personally and best year for her career’ in her own words, she said, that this song, ‘is how deeply I feel about the person that loves me...’ and if you read this article it is very much about him.
The next song is actually one of my favorites on the playlist, the singer (Queen Naija) and backstory is SO interesting. She was in-fact a YouTuber first, she then rose to fame, through her breakup with a man she made YouTube videos with, regarding their relationship and she lived an ordinary life with him. But through her YouTube, she still always sang songs, during American-Idol, which she competed in at 14, she was told, she was pitchy, but after her breakup, which she said was, ‘embarrassing’ she wrote Medicine and it has over a million views on Youtube, it’s basically, her addressing her breakup, in a hidden way, about how she can do the exact same in the situation as her ex-partner did to her. The reason why it resonates with so many people, is for the fact, that Queen Naija, said she wants to show, how we all are capable of doing equal, things to each other, and so it’s best just to treat each other equally as well, because we are capable of treating each other equally as bad.
The beautiful orchid gracing the label of @AlmaDeCattleya wines represents the Cattleya Trinae—this flower is the national symbol of winemaker Bibiana Gonzales Rave native country, Columbia. To quote the winemaker: “Pair. Share. Enjoy.” I wholeheartedly agree. And by the way, this wine is delicious! #LucyRose #AdCwines #wine #quote #art #winelover #QOTD https://www.instagram.com/p/By3rdotHIcb/?igshid=10v66vq4tjxoc
