#slow burns

[myapothecarydiary]

Who will treat me the way The Apothecary Diaries treats me? The character profile for Maomao in volume 14 of the light novel. "She's finally started to seriously entertain Jinshi's feelings" I am spoiled for all other slow burns!!

What do you mean it's a "slow burn" when they clearly have romantic feelings for each other 25% of the way into book 1?

14(/16) volumes and counting of development is the food I need

[cremsie]

nothing has given me a higher standard for tv show writing than Stargate SG-1

[inbetweenthechaos]

Slow burn where they are both aware they are in a slow burn but are loving the tension so they each try to edge the other to make a move ahhhhh

[autistic-brushstrokes]

Me: when I said I like slow burns I didn’t mean 5 years

CBS SWAT: …

Me: and I sure as hell didn’t mean 20 years

CBS NCIS: ….

1:34 AM

The sound of the clock ticking away could be heard as you continue to type away on the keyboard.The last few scenes of the work you've been working on are going to be completed and with new inspiration you continue . Pulling all nighters , dumping strong coffee in your system and an unhealthy amount of rest has been your life for the last six months.

The purrs of your beloved cat taking your attention for a slight bit was actually quite good for your eyes as looking at a screen for a long time strained your eyes heavily. You looked at your cat with a smile. “ Just a bit left baby ”.It wasn't that you had a deadline. It's just that you loved your work. Your friends often made jokes about your intense workaholic routine but you just laughed them off.

“ At this point you're gonna have to marry your own character” , your friend Becky said laughing.

“ Wouldn't be bad you know” ,you smirked at her and she shook her head with a smile.

Being a playwright was your dream that you accomplished just a few years ago. Doing part time jobs and studying were most of the things you did during your college days. So although you were completely new to this field of work , you have gained quite a good amount of fame. Some of your work has been appreciated by the audience and the rookie playwright of the year award was a great feat of accomplishment of your whole life.

Now back to present, with the last word typed away you save your work and then send it to your beta to recheck everything. Stretching your arms out you yawned and finally stood up. Going over to your kitchen and opening a cabinet you pulled out a microwave ramen and decided to settle for it tonight. You decided tomorrow you'd go grocery shopping as you shivered watching the sorry state of fridge. After a few minutes you had your ramen while watching the tv . There was nothing much going on the tv at this time so you settled for a documentary show that was being re-broadcasted.

Oh , it's him. You thought as you slurped on the noodles. Spicey just as you liked it. The documentary was about a famous film director. You had seen him a few times during award shows. He was one of the most successful directors of the time and all of his films were successful as he got the best director awards quite a few times. It must be fate now that you came across this because you were just thinking about sending him your work. You doubted it'd be accepted but still it's worth a shot. You gotta keep trying in this field of job.

Hoping you'd at least have your work checked by him you turned off the TV and dumped the trash in the garbage can. Then after cleaning up you went to bed to get the sleep you very much needed.

____________________

“ I've finished rechecking. It's all good to send. Be assured”, said your beta, Alan .

“Alright. Done” you said clicking the send button. Now if it's accepted you'd get to meet the director and it'll be made into a film. Your genre this time matched with the kind of works he worked on so you hoped your work will get at least the recognition.

“ Man I hope I'll get accepted”

“ Don't worry. I have a good feeling about this and you worked really hard on this so don't lose hope” , reassured Alan. You smiled at him and hoped for the best.

“You wanna get lunch ? My treat.” You asked.

“Why not? Can't say no to free food”, he sheepishly smiled.

Alan was like your little brother. He's been with you ever since your first work and over the time you two bonded as if he was family. He was still a student from your alma mater and he looked up to you a lot. You were happy to have him appreciate you cause there were times when you felt despair but he was the one who always helped you get through tough times.

After eating and bidding Alan goodbye you went to the grocery store. Walking towards the aisle you remembered what you needed and put them in the cart. A carton of milk, eggs, vegetables, sausages ,Nutella oh and you were about to run out of coffee so a jar of coffee. Okay , that's all from here . Then you bought some cooking spices and other necessities. Checking everything you went to the cashier. Paying for everything you went out the store and a cold breeze passed by making you shiver. October was ending and it was getting colder. You pulled your coat closer and loaded your car then drove away to home as you planned on making dinner and having hot chocolate later.

2 days later

The sound of luminary playing in the background could be heard as you were cleaning out your closet and filling it with warm clothes. It was one of your favourite soundtracks. It was just so beautiful and gave you lots of ideas.

You remember the earlier phone call. You still couldn't believe it. Dominic Albero read your script and he wanted to have a meeting with you. His assistant called and made you aware about the appointment which is tomorrow night. You're so happy right now. You can't believe your work got recognized by THE director everyone wants to work with. You informed Alan about this and boy was he so enthralled with the situation. He wished you best of luck for tomorrow and you decided you'd celebrate with him if your work gets adapted tomorrow.

 The castle walls were silent as the man stand looking down at women with a malicious smile as she covers herself with her shredded clothes, rivers of silent tear roll down her rosy cheeks hair wild trying to shrink herself eyes shut hoping it would save her from the reality. The man let out a chuckle finding her attempt amusing as if its some twisted game, with a satisfied smile he walks out of the room two man greeted him outside with same sick smile as they chatter away from the room.

 That’s only when she truly felted at ease, her mind was filled with range a range that could destroy the world if she wanted to, hopelessness as if she drowning in sea full of monsters that’s want to eat her alive, shame that she won’t be able the same after what happened, resentment to the world, to fate that made her the prey, sympathy because she wasn’t the first one and won’t be the last one, baffled at behavior of the kings and queens who supposed to protect them.

Where were the when she filched at the unwelcomed touch? Were was them when she was petrified when member of royal family tore her clothes? When she was screaming her lungs out that she didn’t want it, when she was begging not to hurt her? When she wailed in agony at the mans to stop? Where were they? Why didn’t they hear her was it because she was a maid? Was is it because he was one of the royals? Was it because she woman? The queen is a woman but why was she and others was only feed to the monsters? Was she really naïve to belief that she would be saved?

She was present the day when king was crowned pledging that he would be their savior and provider a shield that would protect them when the people will be in danger, like loyal night as her father whispered the same with her in his arms her mother was caressing her back as they watched the ceremony. She remembers the day when her mother become a maid at castile just like she was, her father was happy about its years was filled with happiness and laughter but soon she stumbled upon her mother weeping at one night as her father tried to comfort her.

Soon after her father was accused of trying to haram one of the royal, when ultimately ended in death making her mother hysterical and out her mind as the administer of the royal court claimed she was casted out. The other maids took her in offering a place, she couldn’t understand what was happening but she was too afraid to ask questions, grief stricken too the core she was numb  

Even after losing her parents, she didn’t break she saw the good in the world even if it was dark sometimes that’s how she survived this long. But standing Infront of the mirror she couldn’t recognize herself. All she could see is a bruised and bleeding women naked to eyes that preying on her, vulnerable and distraught. She was mortified to see her reflection; with shivering arms she gathers what left of her clothes shake hands clenched around herself.

This won’t be the last time, the thought echoed in her minds as walk out the room, the other maids pity eyes hunted her as watched her drag her feet slowly, her friend, Ella’s eyes were red with tears as she scrabbed the floor hands tightening around the clothes all she wants to do is embrace her friend but that would only result in punishment for not just one of them but everyone.

 Emma’s tired eyes glance at Ella as she holds back tears a whisper lighter than air left her lips “forgive me”. Ella doesn’t understand what she meant by that , but before she can look up Emma was gone; Ella stands lost, the desire to follow Emma increasing but fear was always runns deeper and strong.

The sound waves crashing together made Emma oddly clam a smile was present on her face as look at the horizon as if behind the it lays her salvation, she cannot escape the walls never truly and inside those walls she doesn’t have the sense of warm and safety once she felt in the arms of her parents, it suffocates her making her hard to breath hands and legs tied to invisible shackles. It always felt cold and eerie to compared to the soothing wind that’s blows around her.

Ella was only thing that reminded her a sense of warmth but now she is feeling a little selfish, leaving her alone in there, felt like abandoning herself because they are all the same, being silenced and controlled. Enough; she is really tried now she can’t escape the reality they will always win it will happen again but she doesn’t want them to win. She doesn’t where this strength came from as she walks towards water, deeper and deeper she reaches at each step. She remembers when her father said there is monsters under the seas but she is knowing that no monster is curler and frightening than one she encountered. After a while in life, she allowed herself be selfish for the first time and last time, finally she can be free from nightmare she can sleep peacefully.

She was lost in the feeling of sweet release that she didn’t hear the yells of a young man that saw her, one young man jumps out his horse and run towards her to save her, he let his sword fall as the other man shout for companion that was far back away from them.

A serene smile still was there as she allowed the cold hands of Thanatos to gentile pull her into the depth her new paradise.  

 The young man looks around the searching for the girl but he was unable to find her, he went under water again but still couldn’t find her. With a heavy heart he slowly swims towards the shore his two friends stand there with a same expression

“How long will this continue? How may of them have to kill themselves?”  jaw clenched the man ask themselves. His anger was not towards them but to those who are the root cause of it. He takes his sword from his friend huffing in aggravated

“Until it is right time comes now, we cannot do something that recklessly” the dark-haired man answer his voice was clam and collected.

“Yoongi is right, our actions blinded by anger only cause damage than fixing” Jimin said placing on the shoulders of Jungkook to make the said male clam

“They don’t deserve this” Jungkook stated

Min yoongi glance at the horizon with a straight face but his eyes held anger in them “no one does, but we are their puppet “before looking at the two men Infront of him “but one day it shall be changed trust me on this”. jimin and Jungkook look at yoongi knowing he might already might have found some kind a solution The three knights of vadrnoia stand there conflicted but determined.

A royal knight pledged their loyalty and respect, they are sworn to protect the royal family even if it mends to sacrifice theme self. But do they worth of their loyalty and service when the treat the people like a mere dirt under there feet, no they don’t.

 the loud laugh of and sound of plates clatter reached the three knights’ ear as they walk towards the dining hall.

“As I was saying our kingdom never been these fortunes” one of the administer boosted feeding the ego of the king who give him smug look that made Jimin wanted to throw up yoongi was always better at hiding his expressions while the other two struggles with Jungkook sneakily nudge him to keep it quiet.

At their arrival all attention turns to them, the administer Thaddeus is weasel and know how to stand his ground the trios’ headache there is nothing goes unnoticed with that man knowing he’s son and brother another pain. “Anything you inform his majesty?”

“Another maid drowned herself my majesty” yoongi said in monotone from the conner of his eyes he could see the other maid’s flitch at the news

The king dismisses the queen and other court ladies with a single monition of hand they silently leave as Morris the courtier role his eyes dismissing what the knight said “my king the princes well be back from training in couple of days yet nothing is prepared for their grand arrival”

“Indeed, the time is near” he then looks at Thaddeus “there is a town far away near the silver lake forest if my memory is correct”

“Yes, my majesty. there is town indeed there”

“Start looking for new maids there I’m sure you will find young fine women there” the king laughed as well everyone in the table while the three stood like stone.

“I believe there is festival taking place the next day, it would helpful to select them” Thaddeus adds

The king node his head before looking at the three knights “you three will in charge of it”

The three bow “as wish your majesty” yoongi said. Maybe they can tell there was no young women in there. Jungkook thinks

“Take my son Amon with you, he knows how to get things done” Jimin roll his eyes at the comment thankfully no one was looking at him one day he is going to kill the vermin the same thought shared between the three.

  The harried footsteps reached outside the kitchen pushing the door open mina enter her eyes searching for Ella, she finds her washing plates

“She is gone” the kitchen falls silent, Ella glance up to see a swollen eyed, shaking holding on to the door for dear life

First Ella didn’t understand but seeing minas face she understand the grief the fear the anger all in her eyes before she can scream out her pain Eloise shut her mouth with hands “don’t… its okey… “she try ease the pain her tears were also freely falling as she consoled Ella “sh.… sh... its going to alright” the muffled cries of Ella echoed faintly the moon was the witness of their pain and suffering.

 Jungkook and Jimin was first to wake and start to prepare for the travel feeding their hoses taking a satchel of gold coin that given to them, getting everything done not that eager to do it but they rather not be near Amon. The two successfully put that duty on yoongi and yoongi only agreed because he knew Jimin or Jungkook would may actually end up with fighting Amon.  

“You know maybe we could push down the hill or bound him to a tree and say we attacked by wild animals” Jungkook said with a innocent smile

Jimin gasp “how can you say such a thing” he frowns at him in disappointment “I was thinking beat him up nice and slow. You know with some great commitment

Jungkook pouts “why didn’t I think that” Jimin glance at the enter of castle to see yoongi and Amon walking to wards them

“We can think more creative way later they are here”

Yoongi face in nonchalant whereas Amon chatting his ear off from the look on his eyes the both know its going to be long journey.

 The town was loud it filled with the laughter of children and murmuring of the peoples, its like a new world outside the castle, young women in the villages as well as the women stare at the handsome men in the hose as the pass. Jungkook and jimin give them polite smile. When the both pass a group young women wave at them Jungkook wave back at causing them to bust out a giggle making the male shy jimin laugh at the youngers domineer.

Amon was purely basking in the attention all to himself not knowing its because the other three men not him but his thoughts were animalistic anyone who do not know him would consider as young chivalry man but those who really know him know how he is far from it.

They mound their hose, Amon stand Infront of them “we will spend the night here see who is worthy enough to be inside the castle, in dawn we will collect them and leave” he stated before walking towards the center of the town “attention everyone” he said in loud voice gathering everyone around him “I, the son of Thaddeus Theron administer of The Majesty of our kingdom of Vadrnoia is need for assistance in castle as the princes of our kingdom returns would a grand event, the castle require help, young strong men to young women capable of work will welcomed to assist, I shall select the eligible at end of this night by dawn those who selected will travel to castle. Everything you need will be provided the king himself make sure this” murmurs start to grow as everyone enthusiastically speak among themselves

A man among them walks forward “everything will be provided to us?”

Amon give the man a smirk “everything my friend” cheering of the people was loud and the three-knight watch everything

“I don’t like it” jimin said

Yoongi scoff at Amon who already starts to walk towards a young group of women’s “as weasels’ pawn is weasel” he turns to jimin and find Jungkook missing “where is he?” jimin frown in confusion and look at his side and realize the absence of Jungkook.

They look around and find him standing by young man who is selling fruits and vegetables. Jungkook seeing them motion them to come closer. Yoongi and jimin sigh seeing the youngest mouth filled with red berries with a wide smile on his face.

Hoseok simply smiles at the young man who excitedly devouring the berries that you given him. He watched another two men dressed as the one standing Infront of him walk towards them. He heard what Amon said but he not interested in going to the castle even a little bit. everything that he is need in the town and……in the woods.

Just few hours till he sees you again
