Something was *wrong*. Kun frowned as her sister scurried in and out of Cael’s tent. Well, partially. There had been smiles and jokes at first, nudges and winks, but when her sister didn’t rise to the jabs as usual the jests had faded a bit. Now she was worried. Petal was off. Kun could […]
There were no forests here. No freezing hills of ice, nor her blazing desert heat and sand. But Bedisa made do, perched on the middle of the sick bay, surrounded by metal and lights and the rushing sound of a metallic, living planet. There was the Force here too. There was a balance and a […]
The scene in the med bay was not dramatic. There was no creeping shadows, no blaze of light, no rushing sound. But the woman’s body, sitting upright so long into the night, let out a soft gasp of air, her hands fell to the ground, and soon after she slumped, falling to her side on […]
I cannot allow myself to give in to guilt. I must stand against it, and not allow it to corrupt any further then it already has. But it is very hard. It is…very hard. The lessons I have learned since him have been hard taught, but it is well they were for I feel the harsh […]
Could you dream in light? That’s what it felt like. There seemed to be a sparkling golden cloud around her, through her, warm in it’s way but for all it’s beauty a hint of…danger. It could cover you in glory or wipe you from the face of the earth. And she grabbed it and held […]
Kun stalked through the trees, tail curled tight against her. This was…fun. Ha. This was really fun. Hunting down deer with some worgen she’d only just met, technically, the previous meeting with Cael aside, not hitting the bars or even hitting on the other person. It was almost refreshing. And the air out here was […]
Kunyee’s tail curled up around her feet, her knees pulled up to her chin as she sat and brooded and stared out the one dingy window. The tail puffed a bit at the memory. What the hell had gone on there? Ok, fine, so Joi was a scheming bitch, as she’d discovered most SI:7 agents […]
Bedi’s fingers hovered over the edge of the datapad. She’d been pondering how to phrase, how to start this letter for some time. What would Jackie think of it? She took a breath and sighed. After seeing Brembal, back then, she’d retreated again. Took time in meditation, on the most godforsaken rock she could find. […]
She stomped into her quarters, ignoring Petal’s look of confusion, and slammed the door to her private room shut. Angry shut. More so then usual, with a rattle that shook the hinges and a curse that had she been a mage, would have likely turned some imp blue. Fists clenched, teeth bared. Tears hovering on […]
I wish…. She turned over on her bed, silent as she had been for some time. Other then tears. Other then sighs. I wish I wasn’t afraid… Here she was again. A place of fear. The smell of fel smoke, the sink of blood. The trembling. The shame. She hadn’t been good enough. She had […]
She gazed blearily at the mug set before her on the bar (see: plank over two rocks) and muttered to herself. “…ech….” Feelings. Yuck. That weird draenei, talking like that to her about Cael and, and THINGS. Like all deep and stuff. Yuck. Slurp. Kun took a swig of the ale and then wiped her […]
She sat near the fireplace of the study room, deep within the cathedral. Safe, she had been told, blessed. This, thought Ygraine, was good, yes? Aunne had said so. Very safe, kuru’nai. They are good here, yes? Ygraine smiled, a giggle as she cupped her hands in the flame’s light. A childlike sound from the […]
She turned the little bottle over and over again in her hand. Fumbled with the note. Confusion, to some degree, and embarrassment and a hint of pride. Well. She had an admirer, as superficial as it might be. That was something. But the other… Kun placed the note and the bottle aside and got out […]
She frowned over the datapad, running through the simulation data again and again. Curse it. Lord Ishya had been left to her own devices for far too long. She needed to pay closer attention next time. A tick was left on another datapad, a list. Set aside an extra hour for strategic planning lessons. Another […]
She wiped the tears from her eyes. Tears were necessary, at this point. They washed away the remainder of the old feelings, and in their wake, she felt….stable. More stable then she had been, for ages. Perhaps it was still just sheer shock at the sight of him, but she would take that for now. […]
She leaned her head back against her seat within the rough freighter, daring a few moments of rest. She had done what she could on Corellia. There were always more, always injured, but…but these days, more often, she would feel a tug, a whisper of the Force, guiding her onwards to another planet. Balmorra. Yes. […]
Shame. She bent her head over the prone form of the refugee, placing a hand on the man’s forehead. The droid nearby quietly and soothingly played out it’s soft beeps and other monitoring sounds. Leaving aside the sickness that was passing through this camp, the man Bedisa was seeing now had his hand crushed building […]
A small, clear glass bottle is placed near Cael’s quarters, filled with a pretty, sparkling blue-ish liquid. A note is attached, written in truly horrible Common. While written in a elegant hand, it appears the writer gave up on spelling and went with phonetics, but it’s fairly legible. Barely. Helo, Sahry abowt tha kut to […]
She flopped onto the bed and buried her head into the pillow. Shit shit shit shit SHIT. Her paws were shaking and her gut rumbled. She couldn’t let Petal know, of course. She meant to cut the yaogaui. The worgen thief. Oh she’d gotten into fights, she’d descended into the underground, she’d seen some things […]
Blood and fire, bone and sinew, with cries and fel abound Many have fallen, many have burned, many dream Of demons, demons in the air and whistling sound Of horror and blade and shield, in the air to scream Bootyclap took the moment to wipe her brow and readjust her helm, and then lept bodily […]
She watched the drops fall from behind a thick pair of goggles and a thicker, but more flexible pair of gloves. A thin dropper in one hand, little scraps of paper laid out on the tray before her, and a series of glass tubes and burners beyond that on the table. A flicker of gas […]
“Do ya ‘ave yer books?” “Aye…yes, miss Issy.” “An’ yer wee sword?” “Yes, miss.” “An’ ya know what ta do if some bug…person tries to grab ya, or if a boy plays too rough?” “Yes, miss. I have to ask them to stop or scream and then kick ’em inna fork like you said.” Isolde […]
thump. thump. CRACKBOOMRATTLE “FUCK!!” She rattled off the bench and table she’d been draped over, bounced off the floor, swore (because godsdammit she’d fallen asleep in her plate AGAIN, well, drunkenly fallen asleep) and then crashed in a pile against a chair as the screams and the crashing and the rattling of pint mugs tumbled […]
She sat, staring at nothing. There was no cloud this time, no golden light, no warmth. But there was a type of bliss, lost in ignorance, safety within the thick folds of madness. She was safe, here. The scars on her mind had been ripped anew, and it was too scary, too raw, too…terrifying for […]
She was happy. She remembered that much, at least, in those last, precious few moments. Her mind was wide open, free and clear. She could see love, and felt it, she could feel the sun on her face, and the laughing dance of sparks on her fingertips. The newly grown fire, banked and now burning […]
