XVI - The Tower

“The Tower shows a tall tower pitched atop a craggy mountain. Lightning strikes and flames burst from the building’s windows. People are seen to be leaping from the tower in desperation, wanting to flee such destruction and turmoil. (...) The lightning bolt breaks down existing forms in order to make room for new ones.”

“Upright meaning: Unexpected change, Renovation, Catastrophe, Destruction, Accident or damage. Reversed meaning: Obstacles, Volatile situation, Losses, Illness.”

Today, I celebrate @mapplestrudel‘s birthday with the Tarot Card of her amazing and resilient Rona Norgreen. The girl from Honnleath who overcame death to become death and life itself. A bastion in face of adversity, humiliation, and ambition. A bulwark in the face of hubris, exaltation and pride. Grounded, steady, a fortress.

@mapplestrudel grew closer and closer to us as Rona endured wave after wave crashing against her. Now, a full year after she joined us, she is our dear friend, someone I feel really happy to have known, and just like Rona, her sweetness devours us all!

Alles Gute zum Geburtstag meine Schwester!

Hiiiiii Jo, thank you for checking in! 💕💕💕Here's this comic idea I sketched about Rona's escape from her imprisonment in Milligan's Pit:

(Rona, Din and Mira the Mabari are close to the secret tunnel's exit, when a bloodmage activates the demon that is bound to Din with a magical branding (Rona has one, too, but it doesn't "work" anymore due to interference from another spirit). She doesn't want to fight him, so she tries and chokes him in a headlock and leaves him behind, not sure if he's actually still alive...)

👀 !!!

Miss Ladybug!!! Thank you for asking ^_^ 💕

I perused my Goo Drive and I found this thing which I had totally forgotten about but now I have the RoDin feels again and want to finish it:

~~~~~

Din was excited. He wanted to show something to Rona and looked around for her on her usual spots. He finally found her with a group of new "recruits", the ones who survived Rookie week, and the aftermath.

He observed her showing them some blocking techniques, and smiled. They looked grumpy, but hung on her lips. She was good at that. it's not what she wanted, he knew that, but it's what she had in this moment and she was working with it as best as she could.

Still, in the last few months since she got out of isolation, he had noticed changes in her. More harsh, more grumpy. She had never smiled a lot, but she even smiled less now.

He worried that Milligan's plan, as far as he understood it, would succeed.

She locked up so many things, and he knew that they would explode at some point, maybe leaving nothing behind to be mended.

He wanted to cheer her up, show her something to look at and imagine a better life.

Rona noticed him lingering in the back. She'd become quite good at feeling where Din was. And whenever she felt him near a little smile would creep into her face, unnoticeable for most, but Din would see it. A slight "come on" gesture from him, a little nod from her. They've been spending so much time together that they could read each other quite well.

Rona gave the recruits an exercise task and left the training yard, Mira at her heels.

The mabari ran up to the elf who knelt down to receive sloppy kisses. Mira whined in delight as Din scratched that spot on her left flank.

Hey miss Mappsie! Can I ask for 1, 7, 14 and 18 from the oc asks for Rona & Ruth, please?

Hey Miss Ladybug, hope you are doing fine! Thank you for indulging me and asking about y about my sweet mind childs <3

1. How do they respond to having a song stuck in their head? Does that happen to them often?

Both Ruth and Rona like to sing and have really nice voices actually. Rona is a bit shy, though, so she usually lowkey hums along with the stuck song. Ruth doesn't care and sings at the top of her lungs. If she must suffer the song stuck in her mind then so shall the others xD

Ruth is the one where this happens more often. She's also seldom seen without her music player at hand ^_^

7. How do they cope with losing an argument?

Rona rather loses an argument than having it escalate. She will be cranky though, if she feels it was an unfair solution. That's actually a thing she has to work on xD

Ruth mopes for a while if she loses. If over time she recognizes the merit in the other one's points/decisions, she'll approach them and comment as much, but it'll take a while because Pride is her vice and she has to overcome her stubbed ego first xD

She's totally up for escalating a heated argument into sexy times - only with Jim, though. There's no losers in that one ;)

14. Would they prefer to act or react?

Rona definitely is more a reacting type.

Ruth on the other hand likes to jump in and deal with the details as they come up.

18. What is the most inappropriate thing they have ever done in public?

That one time, a 10 year old Rona brought a Fereldan Fire Frog to the chantry service. Now, the Fereldan Fire Frog - and I quote from The Concise Illustrated Guide to the Flora and Fauna of Ferelden by Daveth Attbrough:

"is a remarkable animal. Small and of nondescript green-brownish colour, it is overseen easily in its natural habitat of muddy ponds and lakes. However, one will never forget an encounter with an angry specimen. If provoked sufficiently, its colour turns to an angry red, and it oozes off a slimy substance that sticks to everything that touches it, and causes red rashes not unlike stinging nettles, but of larger size and longer lasting pain. In this agitated state, the frog will also hop around frantically as a means of distracting potential enemies, to then go into hiding again and watch them agonize." *

Suffice to say chaos ensued when the frog escaped Rona's hold. The service ended prematurely and half the community had rashes and was very angry at Rona xD

For Ruth, it was hat one time during her days at the Military Academy in Amapá, Brasil, when she mooned one of the instructors she didn't like during a lecture. She had drawn two sleepy eyes on her buttocks, and written "BOOOORING!" above them in bold black letters. If you dig deep enough there's still the video circulating in the 'Net. Brother Ezra almost choked from laughing, but her parents were not so amused and had to pull a few favours so Ruth wouldn't get suspended.
