Illness Is About||Indra and Raven

[indraofthetrikru]

Indra stalked after the girl, in no mood for attitude. We teach our children how to respect warriors in the Trikru, she thought, crossly. But she had no idea where the Sky People’s healers were, in this titanic mess of metal that they called a camp, and her people hadn’t encountered this particular sickness before in her memory. So she uneasily followed the mechanic girl further into the camp, passing by the sick from both their peoples. “Have your people encountered this illness before?” she asked the girl. She wouldn’t put it past these outsiders to have unknowingly poisoned them all, so little did they understand the world of the ground. Who knew what diseases people got in space? (certainly not Indra)

[truespacewalker19]

Raven laughed at that question as she waited for Indra, hearing her follow. “Please, we barely got sick up there. And when people started to, it was because lack of oxygen so people would go blind and whatnot. We never had this sort of thing. Though I’m sure Clarke, Abby, or Jackson could tell you what it’s called.” Raven arrived at the entrance of Camp Jaha’s med bay, “Now come on, one of those three people are in here and will be able to cure us.” Raven stated, turning around rolling her eyes at the stiff warriors assumptions.

Reconciliation|| Lexa and Raven

[groundercommanderlexa-deactivat]

Lexa looked at the other girl and paused before answering “I’m 19 but my soul is older then that, I’ve been in command for a while now.” Lexa looked away from a moment and then back at Raven “what is a zero g mechanic?”

[truespacewalker19]

Raven was shell shocked. The commander and her were the same age. “Me too. 19 I mean. That’s how old I am. I couldn’t even imagine leading everyone, I honestly don’t know how Clarke and Bellamy do it.” Raven smirked. People from the ground wouldn’t know what zero g would be. “So ‘g’ stands for gravity. and gravity is what is making you stand to this very ground. Without it you would be floating. So in space we had a sense of gravity so long as we were in the ark but then there were an elite group of mechanics who were lucky enough to go zero g or with out gravity. We were responsible for fixing the outside of the ship and patch things up, also run routine maintenance. I was the youngest to ace the zero g exam, ever.” Raven explained. Then volleyed, “What do you mean your soul is older?”

[indraofthetrikru]

Indra waited until she could stand, and staggered into the camp, searching for someone—anyone—who seemed to be in their right mind. She spotted one of the sky people leaning against the radio tower (truespacewalker19). The mechanic girl, she thought. Indra approached with caution. The Sky People’s strange technologies made her uncomfortable, and her ignorance of their workings only served to make her more uneasy. She wasn’t sure someone who spent all their time with machines had any sense to begin with, but in this crisis she was willing to risk an alliance. The girl was sweating and shaking, but her eyes were clear. “Sky girl!” Indra said, trying to sound intimidating. “What is going on here?”

[truespacewalker19]

Raven near one of the towers when she felt it. A roll in her stomach and a violent case of the shakes. The combination of the two also caused her to drip with sweat. She was headed toward medical to see if Abby had some sort of cure when she heard a deep alto call to her. Well not her specifically but toward her so Raven assumed the ground warrior with a stick up her ass meant her. “I have a name you know. I just don’t go around calling you ground warrior. Your name is Indra.” Raven told her not turning to face Indra not intimidated in the least. Raven was shocked by what she saw though. The tough warrior looked weak as all hell. “And by the way I don’t know, I’m not feeling to hot myself. You can come to medical with me if you want.” Raven said not waiting but slowing her movements just in case Indra decided to come.

Lexa looked at the girl in front of her and then back to the hand she held out. “Yes let’s leave the past there” lexa shook her hand “if you wish to understand you may ask questions” Lexa looked at the girl and nooded

[truespacewalker19]

Raven looked at the Commander. For once she actually looked vulnerable. She was willing to answer Raven’s questions and by all means with this kind of permission she was going to ask. “Okay, let’s start easy, how old are you exactly and how long have you had power for?” Raven was truly curious of these things. She was hoping that maybe it would help give her a bit of perspective. “I’m 19 and I was the youngest zero g mechanic on the ark so I know what pressure is, maybe not on the same scale but it huge up there.” Raven provided maybe hoping to make her comfortable.

Lexa knew who this women was, “Ravens he nodded at the girl, this was the women that built the tone generators who blew up the bridge. she was very skilled thought lexa. But she also knew that this girl hated her that she almost stood trial for spiking the drink at the peace agreement. This girl was in love with the boy Finn who Clarke killed so there would be peace. Lexa wondered why she was speaking to her now “I’m having an ok time there us peace within our lands now, many good times will be had”

[truespacewalker19]

Raven looked at the Lexa, swallowing her pride. “Let’s hope.” she said numbly. Raven drank her drink and then looked to Lexa. “Listen, I don’t exactly like what you did, and I don’t think I’ll ever understand. But in the name of peace bygons?” Raven asked knowing that she was the highest risk for the truce to come crashing down, so she had to make it right. Raven stuck out her hand in a friendly sort of gesture of acceptance.

[groundercommanderlexa-deactivat]

Lexa had left the campfire and decide to go for a walk, she wasn’t drunk but had bit to drink. Walking around camp jaha was interesting sky people and grounders where being nice to know another, it also helped that drink where flowing. Lexa knew the next few days would be busy she had to prepare for there trip to Tondc and then to poils, there was much to do. But for tonight lexa decided that she could let lose a little just be lexa for a night. and so she sat down at another fire and drank.

[truespacewalker19]

The war was over and stress was down. Raven, though she didn’t forgive the Commander for ordering Finn to be killed felt as though she should make an effort to maintain peace. Swinging down her drink she hobbled over to Lexa. She sat not to close to the Commander but close enough to make her presence known. “Hi, Commander. Having a good time?” Raven asked trying to swallow back questions as to why and thoughts of revenge. That wouldn’t help hold a truce or make Raven forget.

Did somebody say Moonshine? I’m afraid I’m the only cooker this time around, though….

[truespacewalker19]

I think we’ll manage Monty ol’ pal!

[braveprincesscg]

Bellamy and I told Monty and Jasper to go make moonshine to cheer people up. 

[truespacewalker19]

That’s what I’m talking about!

[truespacewalker19]

So what’s this about a party I hear? Clarke? Blake(s)?

[braveprincesscg]

So has everyone heard by now then? But yes Bellamy and I, we’re a thing.

[truespacewalker19]

Just as much as they know you guys are our leaders not Kane and Abby.

[truespacewalker19]

So happy everyone’s back safely!

I’m a big bad bookworm. I stole books, files, labels, anything with words I could read. I swear you could breath the wrong way and they’d arrest you up there.

[truespacewalker19]

For real? Damn harsh much Jaha! Well I know we're sending a scourge team to the Mountain when everything's over. Maybe they'll have books. I know Bellamy's taking a record player.

[mckenziewaters-blog]

The one and only, lucky for that. I remember, you came down in the pod all by yourself.

[truespacewalker19]

Hahaha! Seriously damn! it was no biggie, just put a few pieces together and bam working pod. So what stupid reason did the Ark have for locking you up?

[mckenziewaters-blog]

Seriously? I wish I could do anything else. Anyways we’d be dead without your skills.

[truespacewalker19]

I used to be right in the action along with everyone along with making things. Then I got shot and well I just make tech gadgets now. But you're sweet. You're Mckenzie right?
