@oracleunchained liked for a Merdyn starter.

Ardyn ducked under a pier as the strange human explored the ruins near his lair. He’d gone to the ruins after some fish that tended to gather there, instead seeing the pretty blonde woman picking her way about the stones. She seemed terribly excited, so much so that he found himself watching her for some time.  He had just about decided that taking time to watch humans was wasteful, when she stepped onto an area he knew to be rather unstable. Quickly he rushed over to warn her. She was no danger after all, there wasn’t any need for her to drown from a bad fall. 

“You best be careful! That stone is crumbling,” He called. 

He was closer to her now, and could see the statue that seemed to have distracted her from her footing. 

“What are you doing here anyway?” He added, “This place is very old, I can’t imagine there would be much to interest you.”

@oracleunchained asked: “ let’s just walk a bit.” 

Peaky Blinders starters;; Accepting

    ✠𝓡𝓾𝓿;; She must have been able to tell, despite the unchanged expression on his face, that Ruv was in need of a distraction... Though the fact it came about from a couple uttered sentences was... Definitely not usual for him. Normally, he preferred not to be around anyone but his most trusted confidant. She wasn’t here... Suppose she’d have pushed him to trying to socialize somewhat. Even if he so often didn’t trust people... What with the bounty on his head and all.

    After another moment of silence, he nodded. ‘ Alright. ‘ Was the only vocal response he gave before stepping to her side. ‘ May I ask, why you’re asking a total stranger to take a walk with you? ‘

“Magitek soldiers, their coming,” she hissed. Aera was becoming increasingly glad that this Ardyn was not like her Ardyn, it made her heart ache less. 

Aera slid to a stop in front of a maintenance closet; it was a little small, but it would have to do. “In here!” The former oracle threw open the door and pushed Ardyn’s look-a-like into the small room before slipping inside and shutting the door tightly. Aera felt herself trembling as her hands firmly gripped the door knob, she had to calm down it would do them no good if she broke now.

“Right, are the children ok?” He whispered back.

A hand rested on her shoulder while the other reach out to the door. Readying a spell to give them the space they needed to escape, just in case one if the tin soldiers opened the door. Not that he thought they would, the poor shambling souls generally didn’t search. If you were hidden. You were safe.

“I’ve got some connections now, once these pass by we should be able to get out and away from the area. Go somewhere safer. “

“REST? I assure you I slept plenty last evening; I’m wide awake.”

White sylleblossoms, Aera couldn't believe her eyes. How many years has it been since she saw these bold, pristine, little things?

Apparently, the blue sylleblossom became synonymous with the Oracle shortly after her death. As a result, the other variants of sylleblossoms were bred out of existence until only the blue ones remained. Aera privately wondered if the decision to symbolize Ardyn's and her's betrothal with red and white sylleblossoms also played a part in that decision as well.

However, it appears a few were spared, judging by what Arc was holding.

Abandoning her book, Aera swiftly made her way over- marveling over the long-forgotten flowers.

"Arc...I..." Taking the blooms into her hands, the former oracle granted the wine-haired man a small kiss on his forehead. "Thank you, these mean...These mean so much to me, thank you."

“Years ago, when I saw they seemed to be rarer, I saved some in my armiger,” He admitted. “I’ve always tried to keep a cultivation of them in my homes, and spare seeds in my armiger. There were some when I cam to this place, so when you mentioned they were gone I started growing them.” 

He smiled at the kiss she gave him in thankyou. Even though she wasn’t his Aera, it made him happy to see her smile even so. 

“I’m glad I could bring you some small joy,” He said. “And these are cuttings, but I can get you some potted ones or seeds as well. You could make a garden out of the rarer sylleblossoms, introduce them to the world again.”

Aera grinned to herself as combed through Ardyn's long locks with her fingers. Today had been a good day, the nobles had bothered her little if at all; this was most likely due to her beau's presence- he was rather tall after all. "Tomorrow, I should be free for a bit...Mayhaps we sneak away? And steal time for ourselves?" The oracle then snuggled close to her mer; resting her head against his. Content to stay there forever if she could. - oracleuncahined

Ardyn was sure to bend down so his lovely Oracle could reach his hair. He buried his own face in her shoulder as she spoke, nibbling at her neck and growling pleasantly.

"That sounds wonderful my pretty one," he crooned. "I found some ruins, it's quite a swim, but I believe we could make it if you held onto my back."

He petted her hair as she snuggled close. What he truly wanted was to take her under the water, but his request would still take a few weeks to finish. But once it did, he could offer the potion to his love and show her a really proper time. Stolen away from the humans to see another world.

“Hmmm.” Since coming to the Fenestra Manor, Aera had experienced numerous different things. The giant white boxes reaching into the sky, the fast black machine that travels to and from Tenebrae and Niflheim, ketchup- but this, this was new. Never before had Aera heard of a man getting stuck behind a wall. She could hear her twin grandsons laughing behind her, vaguely, she wondered if those two hand something to do with this. She wouldn’t put it past them.

“Do you think you triggered a secret passage? Or, fell into one?” She sighed.

“Rather think I triggered a security protocol,” Ardyn admitted. “I was playing around to see what was set up and not paying attention.”

He points to a panel just behind Aera. It’s clearly the security release, should be easy enough to turn the wall off.

“See that glowing red panel? Press the top three buttons and lift the little latch, that should disable the system.” He told her. “I’ve seen these auto walls before, I was just being foolish.”

‘ you need rest. ’ - oracleuncahined

She heard the other woman's words, listening for a moment before shaking her head. She didn't need rest. She needed to continue on in her training. How else was she supposed to help Noctis when the time came?

"I'm fine." Her voice came out shaky, as if it pained her to even speak. "I have to be fine. I have no choice. I have to get stronger. The whole world could end if I do not have the strength." She glanced to where she had heard the voice, frowning.

"You should know that..."
