A curse under her breath as the crab dodges the bolt - because she has a limited number, dammit- and her focus is even more off so that when it reaches to grab her, she manages to dodge mostly out the way. Except for her ankle.

Another yell as she tugs it free- but uses the remainder of her strength to push herself up, and jumping onto the Crab’s back, ignoring the pain. Reached up, and over, top stab an arrow deep into it’s eye socket–

            a smile would remain across the elf’s face as killian swept this way and that. it was entertaining, to see someone struggle so much with something at the basic level. he couldn’t wait to see what she made of wonderland further along. 

            the crab would screech, bloodied, as the arrow went into his socket. it would try to buck killian off, blindly waving it’s claws toward where his vision last placed her.

[veryverygoodatherjob]

Kept her body low, pressed to the shell, below where the claws were waving, and --- there! Another arrow stabbed in the chink near the eyes a where the brain would be.

The crab gives a whine, and then collapses. She hopped off the back, panting a little as she did so, and glanced towards the elf.

"What's next?"

[welllmet-deactivated20190216]

veryverygoodatherjob:

Settled her large hand in his smaller one, a small smile in place. Nodded along as the man spoke, head tilting from one side to the other.

“And –? What next-?”

          ❝ now get this — ❞

          he’d pause, rearranging her hand on his to get the best angle. the nice lilac color would rake against killian’s nails in a sweeping motion, tapping his foot once and then twice. 

          ❝ — she mistook that person for her lover ! and this person was on a date, so she was naturally kind of shocked to see who she thought was her lover smooching on a regulator. so all three parties are upset, and then… this is where it gets good, the actual lover makes an appearance. ❞

[veryverygoodatherjob]

Eyes widened as the story progressed because, honestly, it was the perfect combintion of believable and unbelievable. Shuffled her position a little, but made sure to keep the hand still.

"I --- how do you do that--? How - if you're sleeping with someone -- how can you mistake someone else---?"

[dxdger]

veryverygoodatherjob:

“No harm done ’t'all, kid–” Half grin, slight nudge in an attempt at camaraderie with the younger. “’m sure it won’t come up again.”

Paused a moment, head tilting from one side to the other. “Hey – did y'see Carey –? She said she had something to give me–”

“Not gonna come up at all,” Dodger echoed, grinning as well. He could certainly think of a few instances where such a weapon might see itself useful, and in theory, those instances would see the Director and and the regulator suitably distracted, but those were thoughts for another time.

And he nodded in response to her question. “Yeah, she was in the dojo. Just finished training with Magnus, I reckon.”

[veryverygoodatherjob]

"Good 't see we're on the same wavelength, there-" A slight chuckle - because whilst she knew the potential reprimanding that would occur from the use of the weaponary.

Another duck of the head at his next comment. "Awesome-- 's pretty cool he's trainin' 't be one of you guys, huh--"

  -  veryverygoodatherjob  /  killian.

“W h a t –” Hands covered her cheeks at that, eyes widening, because oh gods she has a crush what if she likes someone else. But also. oh god what if she has a crush and its on her.

“I— who? Are you sure-? Wha– what if it’s on Lup? Or Lucretia? O-or –”

     Angus kept that cheeky grin in place,  not out of mischief or any other negative connotations,  but rather,  he was just giddy.  It was almost ridiculous how long neither of the girls had made the first move.  But that was people.  And Angus just liked figuring them all out.

    “If she had a crush on Lup I think she would already be flirting with Carey,  since Magnus caves when he’s trying to keep a secret from the twins,  she would know by now,”  jeez,  he liked figuring things out way too much,  “not sure about Lucretia.  But I have a feeling it’s a mutual crush between you and Carey,  ma’am.  And generally speaking,  I tend not to be wrong.”  Just a bit smug there,  Ango.

[veryverygoodatherjob]

The grin absolutely made her blush intensify to an even darker green because Gods was her suffering really this amusing? Peeked out from between her fingers.

Slight head tilt at the reasoning, because damn, he was so, so right about the twins-- and, dang. He never was wrong---

"I -- uh. Why -- why didn't you say anything before now-?"

[welllmet-deactivated20190216]

veryverygoodatherjob:

“Then you’re a good uncle –” A grin, and laughter grew, watching them play together. Heart warmed at the nickname - because she was so, so full of fire.

“What’s the Taako verdict on baby Crushbone-Fangbattle then, huh-?”

         ❝ did you really expect me to be anything else ? ❞ a teasing smile, a raise of the eyebrow and he was turning his full attention back to jo. the nickname ‘fireball’ was definitely going to stick. he could tell. 

         ❝ uh. cute as hell ?  ❞ he’d give an expression that read fully as ‘duh’, before completing his thought, ❝ great, and is going to be great with her great moms taking great care of her. ❞ all the ‘greats’ were obvious teasing, but the meaning behind the words were truly sincere.

[veryverygoodatherjob]

"True -- 'f a dude who pretends not 't care 'bout kids -- You're actually real good with kids." A half laugh, arms reaching out to take the child back from the elf.

A duck of the head the the next comment, because heck yeah, her daughter was the cutest thing in the planer system. Did blush a little at the compliments -- "'means a lot that y'think so, Taak-"

[welllmet-deactivated20190216]

veryverygoodatherjob:

Was barely paying attention to the elf, anymore – most of the energy was focused on, you know, not actually dying. A wash of victory and relief as the weapon hit it’s target– but that was quickly cut off as the wave of thunder sped in her direction.

Jumped out of the way, best she could - but the electricity caught the tip of her boot, sending a jolt through her body. Crossbow she was mid-aiming shot off in the completely wrong direction as she landed. Couple points of damage, but nothing too bad. Took aim again, for the second eye, and fired –

                   ❝ YOWCH ! ❞

         laughter radiated from above, kicking his legs a bit. a few claps and he continued to watch. he was invested now. balancing above the stands, he’d follow each movement as the crab hissed at killian. this time, it expected the shot. a claw came up, blocking the arrow just in time, it bouncing off with a steady but intense ring. 

         this time, it was going to try and grab killian, and try to toss her across the room.

[veryverygoodatherjob]

A curse under her breath as the crab dodges the bolt - because she has a limited number, dammit- and her focus is even more off so that when it reaches to grab her, she manages to dodge mostly out the way. Except for her ankle.

Another yell as she tugs it free- but uses the remainder of her strength to push herself up, and jumping onto the Crab's back, ignoring the pain. Reached up, and over, top stab an arrow deep into it's eye socket--

[welllmet-deactivated20190216]

A burst of laughter at that- because, dear Gods, how could anyone see Taako and not Get It. Maybe she just was extra good at sensing it - a sort of find-your-friends vibe.

The minutes after she calmed herself down, hand fanning in front of her face. “Oh. Oh my Gods. Taako. I mean – uh– who? I’ll talk to her –” // @veryverygoodatherjob

          he’d flicker a smile, nose scrunching just a bit, though he was quick to try and put up a faux pout,  ❝ killian this is serious, hon. ❞

          a hand settled at his hip, though the smile had regrown as she calmed herself.  ❝ don’t really know her name, really. she always shoved it at me when i wasn’t really paying attention. ❞ a wave of his hand, moving up and down on his wrist,  ❝ she’s like… a short half elf i think ? red hair ? i dunno. ❞

[veryverygoodatherjob]

A pause, head tilting from side to side, and then-- eyes widen. Oh, shit.

"Oh- my Gods, I know who that is --! Eloise-- oh, man-- she's a total sweetheart --- Oh, that dumb kid --" Spare hand ran through her , before she shook her head a little.

"Do - do you want me to talk to her-?"

[welllmet-deactivated20190216]

“Tell. Me. Everything.” Killian did her best to keep it professional, of course - but with Taako? Well, he was her best friend. It was different.

Sat down on the spot he suggested, grabbing the nail polish as she did so. “Soooo - what’s been happening-?” // @veryverygoodatherjob

          ❝ mkay. listen up. ❞ he’d lean back, and fold his legs to give the other room to sit. he’d snatch the nail polish, examining the color for a moment before shrugging and then opening his hand to have the other settle it in so he could get to painting.

          ❝ so. you know that tiefling down in human resources. shit, what was her name ? doesn’t matter really, but i was in the cafeteria, and she just suddenly started yelling at some human from the seekers. and i was like… what ? but you know me, and i scoot a bit closer and listen in. ❞ he’d start painting the nails as he talked, swaying hands with his speech.

          what can he say ? he was very much a hands talker.

[veryverygoodatherjob]

Settled her large hand in his smaller one, a small smile in place. Nodded along as the man spoke, head tilting from one side to the other.

"And --? What next-?"

  -  veryverygoodatherjob  /  killian.  

A grin, full of unbridled joy as he spoke, setting down her utensils, more out of the rush of butterflies than anything else. Gods – every fime she looked at the Dragonborn, she felt as if her heart would burst.

“You think so–?” She didn’t doubt Angus, no, not at all– but more about how could anyone care about her, like that? “Why-?”

     Angus couldn’t stop himself from smiling so much just by his friend’s reaction,  crossing his feet beneath his seat as he let his food set aside for the moment.

    “I know so,  well.  In a way.”  Offering a shrug as he’d turn the fork in his hands.  “Just cause.  She acts the same way you do.  In a Carey way at least,  plus she mentioned having a crush on someone to Magnus and Magnus told me because he’s Magnus so.”

[veryverygoodatherjob]

"W h a t --" Hands covered her cheeks at that, eyes widening, because oh gods she has a crush what if she likes someone else. But also. oh god what if she has a crush and its on her.

"I--- who? Are you sure-? Wha-- what if it's on Lup? Or Lucretia? O-or --"

[welllmet-deactivated20190216]

veryverygoodatherjob:

“I guess it depends which school she thinks ’s gonna be more fun, huh-?” She’s teasing, of course, but part of that is absolutely honest. Whatever was best for the kid, of course –

The baby giggles, though. and grabs at the rings, too– doing her best to stuff one into her gummy little maw. “She seems to agree, huh-?”

         ❝ hey, if she chooses lucas. i may be bitter but i’ll respect the decision. though as horrid as it may be. ❞ he’d give a sliver of a grin glancing down as the child grabbed and attempted to gnaw at his rings. 

         ❝ yeah. guess she does. the little fireball. ❞ he’d hum a familiar tune before readjusting his hold. ❝ i knew you’d agree. ❞ ok. he may be getting attached to the young dragonborn real quick. a parental fire burning in his chest.

[veryverygoodatherjob]

"Then you're a good uncle --" A grin, and laughter grew, watching them play together. Heart warmed at the nickname - because she was so, so full of fire.

A dark green flush at that, because even the thought of asking out the dragonborn was almost too overwhelming. Another bite of the food, redirecting her attention to the book, depsite nothing going in.

“Yeah – yeah. I think so. I just - she’s our friend, y'know-? If - if she says no-” The unspoken words are ‘she could stop being my friend.’ And that was the last thing the orc wanted.

    “I know,”  voice read as understanding as he’d continue to munch at his lunch.  “But,  no offense,  Killian,  but…she absolutely will say yes.  Unless if she hates spring flings.  Then she might say no,  even then she’d go with you.  It’s hard to miss that she has a little thing for you too.”  Gesturing with his fork in hand,  he was the world’s greatest detective,  even if this wasn’t a crime or a life threatening mystery.  Angus was already on this case.

14, and 20 with Killian owo

Headcanon Time

14. Dancing headcanon

Lucretia is not a dancer. Even at the Legato Conservatory she avoided dancing at all costs, much preferring to work on her portrait or watch from the sidelines than join in herself.

ONCE OR TWICE though, in a maybe slightly intoxicated party environment on the Starblaster, someone got Luc up on her feet and dancing. Face flushed, smile bright, laugh twinkling– 

And she had fun. She wouldn’t do it in almost any other circumstance, but she doesn’t regret it that one time.

20. Relationship with/thoughts on _____ headcanon

Lucretia loves Killian s o much my dude. She’s known her almost the longest out of everyone, minus the Starblaster crew and the Millers, and being the first member of the Bureau of Balance means that Lucretia puts an huge level of trust in her to lead and help her with the mission. 

There’s a little something maternal there as well, and she feels that for pretty much everyone at the Bureau.
