your opinion on pineapples on pizza

not for me

[seasaltmemories]

1, 2 & 7 for the writer ask!

things that inspire you

more like what doesn’t, though I largely draw from songs and other stories where what if X happened and the characters ended up this way

things that motivate you

comments, feedback of any type, seriously sometimes I just enjoy rambling about ideas and seeing that it is interesting to people besides myself just makes me motivated like nothing else

early influences on your writing

a combination of what animal I thought was cool at the moment (one year it was cheetahs, the next it was wolves) and books I read (in class one time I was read this story about a community of snowmen who come to life so I wrote a story about a snowdog that comes to life and own a contest)

sonata-k replied to your post: There’s a Disney movie in existence where a girl...

which movie?

I can’t remember what it’s called. But the doll was like Eve or whatever, she was basically a knockoff Barbie doll.

More Than I Deserve

Rating: G

Summary:  Part of him wants to tell her just how brave Lisa is, how she can jump out of a plane and face death with only the slightest of flinching. But those are details that only belong to her and the Number Children. 

When he finally sees her again, her hair is longer. Not by much, it has been a few weeks at best, still Twelve can't help but notice such little changes as those. Despite the cooling weather as fall approaches, Lisa wears a yellow sun dress the same shade as her voice, and he can't help but bring that up when he compliments her.

"Thank you," The tips of her ears turn pink. "It reminded me of you."

It was his turn to become flustered, yet his embarrassment was quickly forgotten after that. For Lisa is filled with stories, of how school is going, how she passed her latest English test, or how she's found a home away from her mother. It's relaxing hearing her speak. Besides her beautiful voice, she carries herself in a different way now. It's not as if all her personal demons have been slayed just yet, Twelve can see them lurk behind bright brown eyes, but it seems she's finally gotten the chance to live and grow. It's all he's ever wanted for her, so he can't help but feel himself swell in pride.

But eventually the chit chat dies, and he knows what she's going to say before the words are out of her mouth.

"Do you want to know about any media updates over the Sphinx Bombings?" Her smile falters as reality crashes before their eyes.

"Not really," It's not that Twelve doesn't care about his fellow Number Children, but the plan had always been Nine's passion. He's just as eager for justice to be served, but for at least an hour, he wants to enjoy his time with Lisa. It's been so long, and he can't help but crave her presence. "Besides, Shibizaki is keeping us informed on any details concerning us."

The wall of glass between them seems to only grow thicker at his words. He would be lying if he didn't admit he had also been craving her touch lately. It would be worth staying in here forever if he could just hold her and relish her warmth. Maybe even sneak in a kiss or two.

"They're treating you right, aren't they?" She tries to keep her voice steady, but he doesn't miss the slight tremors. "Mr. Shibizaki said I couldn't visit Nine for some reason. Is he..." She trails off, too scared to say the unthinkable.

"They're treating us better than I could imagine," Twelve knew it was illegal to deny prisoners medical care, but it had certainly helped having an ally guarantee it for them. Nine was stable, but his condition had worsen at a faster rate than his had. If they hadn't been captured, Twelve can't say they would have survived this long.

"Don't worry Lisa. Nine was just feeling off today. You two will get the chance to meet again next time." He tries to be optimistic for the both of them.

"I sure hope so," She sighs. Their time together is slowly dwindling down, probably less than two minutes at this point.

"There was no other fate besides this for us. The only other option was death."

"I know. I thank God everyday that wasn't the case. I still miss you two."

"You'll have a better life the sooner you distance yourself away from this mess."

"Maybe so, but I made a promise," Dark brown eyes stare into his soul. "I meant it when I said I would remember you, and no matter what I will never be able to forget my Sphinx duo." Twelve had to hold back a gasp at the way his heart flipped. While he understands it would better for her to have never met them, he can't help but feel glad she wishes to remember them. It;s one selfish trait he allows himself to savor.

"That means the world to us, Lisa," Part of him wants to remind her it had been a trio for a day, but to do so could cause her to receive charges as well. Better to pretend she was only a hostage than to acknowledge her as an accomplice.

"My time is up, so I guess this means goodbye," She sighs again.

"Can we settle on 'see you later' instead?"

"I like that," She smiles as bright as the sun itself. "See you later, Twelve."

"See you later, Lisa." His timing is perfect because just then a guard approaches Lisa and escorts her away. He's not even allowed one last glance before being led back to his cell as well.

"I don't know what she could see in a criminal," His guard scoffs as she double checks his handcuffs. "And just what kind of girl would want a date at a prison?"

Part of him wants to tell her just how brave Lisa is, how she can jump out of a plane and face death with only the slightest of flinching. But those are details that only belong to her and the Number Children.

"I don't know, but she's more than I deserve."

A.N.  Happy birthday @sonata-k!  We've been mutuals for a long time, and you have always supported my writing, so I wanted to make sure you had a great birthday.  A little bittersweet but I hope it was still cute enough for you

A starter and a ship? How about “I never meant for it to go this far.” with rivetra? :3

She is fire, burning, blazing.  Petra was often compared to the sun by love-struck newbies for her kindness and warmth, but they always failed to account for her anger, just as scorching and hot.

“Are you satisfied, Levi?”  Each word is another flame that burns his skin, a flash of light that blinds.

“I never meant for it to go this far.”  Those few words could sum up his life. Never meant to be more than a street urchin.  Never meant to become Humanity’s savior.  Never meant to be in charge of children who still had hope in their eyes.  Never meant for his attraction to his soldier grow into anything more.  God, he had never wanted the hand dealt to him, but life rarely listened to his needs.

She looks him over, really looks him over.   Petra has never seen him as anything less than a fallible human, but she had to be disgusted with all the cracks peeking through.  He was her opposite, ice, freezing, stealing the heat from everything else.  Levi was the moon, only reflecting the sun’s radiance.

“So we’re just one big accident?”  She tries to stay detached, but it’s impossible for one as passionate as her.  They’ve survived titans, have cheated death more times than Fate allowed, but nevertheless, the two of them still ended in ruin.  No matter what, too many mistakes laid between them for their relationship to ever be repaired.

“Fine,”  She stands up as straight as a rod, refusing to waver in the slightest.  “I’ll end this for you then.  Goodbye, Levi.”  

She turns around to leave his office, and in his mind he apologizes for everything.  In his mind he confesses he still loved her.

But in reality, he only sits there and watches her go.

Send in a ship and starter and I’ll write something in 300 words or less!
