Code: Empress × Tactical Trooper? (Could be fluff, nsfw, morning rituals, training, date stuff; up to you guys!) (This ship doesn't get enough love and I feel like I'm it's only member)

“May I have this dance, my lady?”

Eve’s slim, cool hand gently gripped Chung’s. He went through the motions of helping her up - not something he needed to do, but the polite thing to do - and smiled at the excited chirps of Moby and Remy as they jumped off the table to follow Eve.

Eve’s bare arm twined with his.  Chung adjusted the formal white jacket he wore before leading Eve to the floor, used to the way the crowd of Hamel nobles parted for him, not used to the click of low heels beside him.

They positioned themselves near the center of the dance floor.  Eve’s right hand gently clasped Chung’s left, Moby peeking around her to watch how gently she settled her left hand on Chung’s shoulder.  Remembering his lessons, Chung settled his free hand on her waist and squeezed gently.

He got an annoyed look from Eve and smiled sheepishly as the first chords of the song flowed over the hall.

The dancing itself was nice.  Chung fell into the rhythm of the music and those  half-forgotten lessons, leading Eve in the dance while they chatted quietly about small things.  Things that had nothing to do with demons, or tactics, or how the hell a relationship between a teenage human and a centuries-old Nasod Queen would work long term.  No, they talked about small things, like quiet comrades about their comrades’ antics at the party, funny jokes they had heard lately, a brief debate on which alloy of metals was more durable.

The last thirty seconds of the song were a bit faster.  Chung broke off their debate (that he was losing) and twirled Eve through some livelier steps, trying to balance his mind between admiring her gracefulness and trying to remember what the hell came next.

The last notes ended with a purposeful screech - Eve stepped back close to Chung, and he could read amusement in her flickering eyes - and then a drawn out chord.  Chung tensed his muscles, re-positioned his hands, and dipped Eve.

It was like dipping his Destroyer.  Except more flexible.  His arms started to shake.

He couldn’t hold it for long, but the chord wasn’t held for long either, and Chung managed not to drop Eve.  When they came back up, he stepped away and bowed, smiling.

“Thank you for the dance, my lady.”

“Thank you for the dance, dear prince.”  She brought him up from the bow with a light touch on the shoulder - Chung really shouldn’t have been as surprised as he was that Eve knew Hamel etiquette - and twined their arms to walk off the dance floor again.

“You know,” she murmured as they were nearly back to their table, “I thought it was normal for male dance partners to be taller than the female.”

“It’s two centimeters!” Chung protested, and Eve ducked her head.  Her giggle, he decided, was worth the flush creeping across his cheeks.

Imagine, as a prank, Add and Elsword collaborate on downloading cat videos to Eve’s hard drive (preferably CN) while she’s charging.

Bonus points if they accidentally addict her to them. Rena is then treated to the scene of Eve storming upstairs and muttering to herself-

“I will murder those two scoundrels by turning them into kebabs and roasting them over a slow fire in Altera Core and recording their screams. But first the fluffy kitties.”

Imagine Glave's sole purpose in Henir being to keep all the timelines on track, with only minor deviations (such as job changes, but even those have to be balanced, hence him helping Time Tracers become Diabolic Espers.) Whether it's giving Chung severe hiccups to throw off his shot when Ara decides saving Ran isn't worth it, or making sure Add is in the right time and place to save Eve in the Ancient Waterway, Glave's power is bound to these specific circumstances and dangers. That's why his weapon is a pair of dice - he has the ability to weight the outcome of fate. Imagine Glave leading the Elgang to Perkisas solely to feel the surge of power at the end of Phase 3.

Just curious if any of you people have played Overwatch, and if so, which character would each of the ElGang like/enjoy? Love the blog by the way, keep it up.

With thirteen people in the Elgang, one person has to sit out and watch the ragequits.  But it still manages to be fun.  Most of the time.  When Chung isn’t screaming.

Elsword - All the tanks.  ALL OF THEM.  High damage and high HP - what more could you want?  He becomes an absolute monster when he learns to use Reinhardt’s Charge, and if there’s a D.VA mech exploding in your face, you can bet he’s laughing his ass off and hightailing it out of there.  If his sister is running around on the opposite team playing McCree, watch him shadow her with Roadhog and make a nuisance of himself until she manages to flashbang and fan the hammer on him or just switches out of rage.  (He loves waiting for her to use McCree’s ultimate skill and then hook her right before McCree says “noon”.)

Aisha - Aisha essentially mains Mei.  She just loves hopping around, slowing people down and then headshotting them, creating giant walls of ice to block off entrances/exits or stop the payload, and luring people into cramped areas and chucking a Blizzard at them.  If she consistently gets shut down, she’ll go Hanzo and snipe, but she won’t be happy about it and whoever dared shut her down had better go Zarya and have that shield up all the time or else they’ll be constantly murdered.

Rena - Poor Rena gets stuck with Mercy for heals, and gets teased about wanting to main Hanzo.  She does not want to main Hanzo.  Hanzo’s aiming thing, she claims, is too different from an actual bow for her to get used to.  She doesn’t want to main anyone, actually, as she really likes switching off and screwing with the other team’s minds.  She’s best at Mercy (getting stuck with her so much does improve your playing), Widowmaker (get headshotted out of nowhere? it’s probably Rena or Ara), and Tracer (bouncing around and confusing people for the win, yo!)

Raven - Brilliant strategist Raven is usually the one telling people what to do, what characters to pick, and where to position those characters for maximum effort.  But if given a choice, Raven likes playing as Roadhog and Genji.  Roadhog can take tons of damage and regain health without too much effort, and also Raven likes the ability to pull opponents in and dispatch them.  Genji is quick and mobile, and Raven likes the ability to deflect shots.  He’s also figured out how to use Genji as an effective counter when Ara is setting herself up as Widowmaker.

Eve - She’s the most versatile out of the Elgang, able to analyze a situation and switch to the character most necessary.  She uses almost all the characters with competence (though she’ll avoid D.VA if at all possible; she doesn’t like having to deal with what’s basically two characters at once.)  If she gets to pick though, she likes playing Torbjorn and screwing the other team over with turrets that cover turrets that cover turrets.  Try and destroy one of her turrets, two more come at you.  Try and ignore them, they’re all pointed at you to screw you over.  You just can’t win.

Chung - Did you step on one of Junkrat’s concussion mines or steel traps?  Is a Pharah or (rarely) a Zarya harassing your team?  Then Chung’s on the batlefield.  He loves Pharah’s high damage and maneuverability in the air, which allows him to see the battlefield and touch down where he can do the most damage.  If Ara is being a nuisance and constantly shooting him out of the air, he’ll switch to Junkrat and wait for Raven to murder Ara while he lays traps and runs around causing havoc.  He also uses the steel trap & basketball trick so much that it’s ceased to be amusing.  (Zarya is just his choice when his team needs a tank.)

Ara - Ara finds the actual melee battle of Overwatch to be confusing, so she doesn’t like to be in the thick of things.  You can usually find her playing as Widowmaker and sniping from high and hidden places, playing as Symmetra and assisting her teammates with well-placed turrets and teleporters, or if nobody else is a healer, playing as Mercy and jumping around waving her caduceus staff.

Elesis - She likes using McCree the most because of flashbangs, fanning the hammer, and Deadeye, but if Elsword is on the opposite team, she’ll switch out of frustration.  Her usual switches are Lucio (everyone wants to protect the healer), Tracer (zipping around and blasting people while having an option to regain any health she loses to Elsword’s tank characters?  Sweet deal) or Soldier: 76 (He does nice burst damage and she likes the ability to hightail it out of whatever clusterfight the game has turned into).

Add - Is there a Reaper popping up in the middle of your team, using his Ultimate, and then nyooming away to pick off anyone who’s separated?  Yeah, that’d be Add.  He’s a nuisance and Elesis makes it a point to go after him if she’s McCree and he’s Reaper.  He makes it difficult for her to catch him, though, often trying to lure her into turrets or Ara’s line of sight.  Sometimes Add wil try Zenyatta just because it’s pretty much a Nasod, or he’ll dabble with Torbjorn if his team desperately needs defensively placed turrets, but Reaper is his one true love in this game.

Lu - D.VA, Pharah, and Reinhardt are Lu’s best characters.  Her hands are a bit too small to properly play the game, so if her character suddenly stops and you hear a shriek of rage, that’s why.  She really likes characters that can jump right into combat and deal tons of damage, which is why she’s usually on D.VA, but she can launch rockets or swing a hammer too.  The only thing she doesn’t like about Reinhardt is that he can’t attack while holding his shield.  But that’s okay, because she has Ciel to take care of that for her.

Ciel - If Lu is on his team, which she usually is, they’ll come up with a plan together.  Sometimes she’ll be Reinhardt and protect Ciel while he chooses Bastion and mows down everyone with a machine gun.  Sometimes he’ll be Hanzo or Widowmaker and protect her as she takes to the skies with Pharah. Or else he’ll pick any support character and go help her wreck the entire other team with D.VA.  If Lu isn’t on his team, Ciel switches off depending on what the team needs.

Rose - This girl can play anyone with a gun, which is pretty much everyone in the game.  The only gunner she can’t get a hang of is Widowmaker, and she tried Hanzo but mostly ended up dead, so don’t ask her to snipe.  You can usually find her with a Zarya, a Bastion, or a Soldier: 76 right in the middle of the fight.  The girl is DANGEROUS.  One person on the opposite team is constantly assigned to take her out.  (Whether they succeed is another matter altogether.  So far, Eve has the most success - about a 50/50 chance.)

RFxVC?

Neither of them are much for PDA.  Elsword teases them that if it weren’t for the defensive reactions when someone flirts with the other one, nobody would even know they were dating.

That said, VC gets very passive-aggressive when someone flirts with RF.  RF prefers just to punch anyone unlucky enough to flirt with VC. 

Sometimes, when RF is too tired to get mad and they’re alone, they’ll discuss memories they both have from the Black Crow Mercenaries.  While they both avoid the subject of Alex, it’s fun to badmouth the superiors who went out of their way to screw with Raven.

VC knows how to calm down RF with little trouble.  After all, they have the same negative thoughts, the same memories, and the same fears - VC is just better at quieting them than RF is.

Before the battle on the Sandtilus, VC and RF have a fight over who gets to fly the ship.  Rena ends the fight with a coin toss and a drill kick.

Holding hands is difficult, if either of them are ever inclined to do it, because their human hands are both on the right side.  Hugging is similarly difficult.  Their “intimate” everyday touches tend more towards ruffling each other’s hair, gentle squeezes of the other’s (human) shoulder, and things like that.

VC and RF sometimes end up immersed in debates about tactics that can last from anywhere from two minutes to two hours.

When the Elgang gets surrounded by Ignia’s resurrected demons in the Volcanic Flame Entrance, VC makes sure RF sees him get injured.  RF promptly goes ballistic and wrecks everything.  Everyone gets out alive, so VC doesn’t mind the shouting match he and RF get into, though he does promise to never make RF worry like that again after RF compares it to Seris.

When the Elgang is traveling between towns and have to camp for the night, RF and VC always end up sitting right next to each other at the campfire, usually with RF’s head on VC’s shoulder.  Nobody is brave enough to tease them like the other Elgang couples get teased.

(NSFW) They tried shower sex once.  They nearly got electrocuted because they forgot to keep their Arms out of the spray.  It has never happened again.

how often does add collapse from overwork???

Depends on the Add, really.

Base!Add can thank the Nasod library for his messed up work schedule - he works until he literally can’t anymore (or until Wally screws something up so badly that Add just has to get involved) - then he gets back to work as soon as possible.  So he collapses a lot.

Mastermind has figured out that overworking doesn’t do anything for the quality of his work, and Mastermind likes quality.  So he makes it a point not to overwork himself.  When he gets tired, hungry, thirsty, even horny, he takes a break and cares for his needs.  Now, if he’s working on a project he’s really excited about, he might ignore his mounting hunger and thirst and exhaustion and just push on, but he always regrets it when he collapses and then has to go back through all his work to figure out where he messed up.

Lunatic Psyker takes meticulous care of his body.  He hasn’t collapsed of overwork since he was a young poofbaby Psychic Tracer - unless you count his style of fighting as his “work”.  In that case, he collapses from overwork more than once a week.

Diabolic Esper never collapses.  Thanks, Seal of Time.  He can’t remember the last time he ate or slept, but it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter, the only thing that matters is his mother.

[elsword-imagines]

would add freak if he was caught and locked up somewhere bc of his past as a slave?

Tl;dr: Hell yes.

Add struggled onto his elbows, trying not to feel the pain of his black eye and unthinkingly commanding his Dynamo to help him up.  Almost immediately a searing pain flashed through his head.  Add crumpled back on the floor at the reminder that his Dynamo were broken - crushed under Berserker Armageddon’s foot, burned by Ignia’s flames as the rest of the Elgang escaped.

Cruel and inhuman laughter resonated around him.  Add felt the butt end of a spear slam into his ribs with a starburst of pain and he yelped, curling into a ball and protecting his head as best he could, a position his body remembered well.

“Weakest of the pack,” a low voice chuckled.  Add’s mind immediately fit the square face of one of the slavers to that voice, even though it had been centuries, even though they were all certainly dead.

“Please don’t-”  His plea broke off in a cry when a giant hand gripped the back of his neck and lifted him off the floor.  Add cracked open his good eye to see Berserker Armageddon’s masked face.

He swung out with one fist, but only succeeded in bruising his knuckles and rousing a howl of laughter from the watching demons.  Armageddon growled low in his throat, spinning around and letting go of Add.

His world tilted.  Add tried to right himself, mentally calling out again for his Dynamo but only getting that searing pain, then his back hit something hot and hard and familiar and he crumpled to the ground with his eyes squeezed shut.

A cage door slammed.

Add cracked his eyes open.

Cage bars surrounded him.  The area of the cage was just large enough for him to lie in a half-curled position or kneel upright.  Ice flooded the core of Add’s being and bile that tasted of terror rose in Add’s throat - the isolation cages, the transportation cages, the lonely cold nights-

The demons jeered as Add doubled over and retched.

The cage bars seemed to be closing in.  Add barely noticed two demons walking over and hoisting up the cage, only that the movement added to his nausea and terror.  It was freezing and the slavers, the slavers were going to beat and violate and sell him, and neither the sight of demons nor Lanox’s blistering heat seemed like evidence to the contrary.

And when the Elgang recovered enough to launch a rescue mission nearly a week later, they found Add terrified and broken in more ways than one.

i'd love some ravenciel hcs :3c

Dating Ciel is a bit of a weird experience for Raven, regardless if he’s dated guys before or not.  For one, their time is mostly taken up by the Elgang. For another, dating Ciel is a package deal - Lu comes with the bargain, and she is a very suspicious demon when it comes to her precious Ciel.

As Ciel spends more and more time with Raven, Lu gets jealous and starts making excuses to get Ciel away from Raven.  When an exasperated Raven finally confronts her about it, Lu bickers with him until they agree to divide Ciel’s time between them (with a bit of help from Rena’s rage mode).  Poor Ciel does not get a say in this.

Ciel and Raven have a lot of acquaintances in common back in Velder, since the Crow Mercenaries sometimes took contracts from shady people.  Ciel, when they’re chatting one day, innocently asks if Raven knows a nobleman named Alex, then wonders why Raven looks like he just saw a field of dead bodies.

Raven doesn’t really care for the amount of sugar Ciel uses in his cooking, but he doesn’t have the heart to tell Ciel.  When Ciel finds out, he makes it his personal mission to find out what type of baked goodies Raven does enjoy.

Ciel enlists Raven to help him look for ingredients.

Raven is always prepared to lift the covers of his bed and let Ciel slide in next to him.  Ciel would be okay with reciprocating, but since Lu is always sleeping in Ciel’s bed, Raven doesn’t come to Ciel’s room at night.

Blade Master teaches Ciel some cool ways to use the blades of his gunblades so he doesn’t have to rely so much on his bullets and Lu’s gauntlets.

Reckless Fist finds it somewhat easier to control his rage when he’s around Ciel.  Whenever someone makes a dumb request or insults the Elgang (Edel using them to map Lanox, anyone?), you can usually find Raven right next to Ciel as Ciel tries to calm Raven down with quiet words and soft touches.

Ciel plays idly with Veteran Commander’s hair a lot.  Once he french-braided it and Raven couldn’t get it down for days.  (His claw really isn’t suited for delicate work like untying hair bands).

Royal Guard keeps an eye out for Raven in battle.  Raven quickly learns to drop flat when he’s surrounded by demons, because a hail of Marbas bullets will inevitably thin them out and Raven does NOT want to get hit.

Dreadlord teases Raven mercilessly.  Bonus points if he can get the normally stoic Raven to blush and hiss at Dreadlord to shut up.

Demonio still cares about Raven, but it’s in a different way than his counterparts since Demonio’s time is mostly taken up by Diabla.  Raven will find little gifts and notes in places Demonio knows he’ll find them, and he also tries to give Demonio tips on keeping his humanity and emotions in the face of the demonic power leaking through his contract with Lu.  Raven’s not sure how much it helps - Nasod control is different from demonic power - but his voice gives Demonio something to hold onto when the power threatens to overwhelm him.
