Last Line Challenge

I've been tagged six times in the past week by @jedi-enthusiast (twice!), @dreamerkath, @frostbitebakery, @tired-bshocked and @shortcuts-make-long-delays so I figured I should probably get around to doing it (you're getting an entire section now)!

This is from my pirate AU fic that I'm hoping will be a fill for Codywan week's battle husbands (lots of kissing and swapping weapons to be had)

“Have you come to your senses, Commodore?” The question came from the smooth but elderly-sounding voice he’d come to dislike over the past few days. He knew precisely who it was and refused to give him the satisfaction of seeing him break. “I’m afraid, sir, that was rather the question I had for you,” Obi-Wan answered, his voice as calm as ever, unwavering as he looked up to meet the cold blue eyes of his captor. He had to remain polite because his younger brother had been brought on board too. He wouldn’t put him at risk, not even when he found himself sitting in the brig of a merchant ship, shackles around his wrists and without his wig or hat like someone in his position should be wearing. “What do you want, Palpatine?” “For you to join us for dinner, Commodore Kenobi.” “In chains?” He only had to lift his bound wrists to make an almost satisfied smile come to his captor’s lips. The merchant was used to getting his way, that much was obvious. He was clearly also used to inflicting punishment on anyone who didn’t agree with him. Unfortunately, he found himself in that category. “I think not.” “Our other guest will be disappointed.” “Other guest?” Palpatine’s smile grew into something almost cruel as he lifted his hand to beckon someone and the footsteps that followed were thankfully familiar. He shouldn’t still be here, not days later, but his presence did soothe him a little. “Obi-Wan!” His name in his younger brother’s voice made the first real smile come to his lips in days, standing to greet him and was nearly thrown off-balance by the force of the hug, steadying himself as the younger man wrapped his arms around him tightly enough to cut off his air. “You’re not- Oh…” “It’s alright, Anakin.” He reassured softly, lifting his bound hands and awkwardly draping his arms around the other’s shoulders in the best hug he could give at that point. “I’m alright.” “Sir, you said he was a guest.” “Then I’m afraid I find Mr Palpatine’s hospitality to be lacking, my little Lieutenant.”

No pressure tags for @happybean17 @afoundling @anaclastic-azurite @ferretrade @shootingstarpilot @meantforinfinitesadness and @dontbelasagnax

Last song: Technically the Finale from the Hazbin Hotel soundtrack cause I just finished the show, lol. It's a banger, btw. Peeps should absolutely give it a shot if they haven't already and are the least bit interested in it.

Favorite color: Purple! I've had lots of different favorites (or just liked pretending purple wasn't my favorite), but I can confidently say purple is the best. I made my mom paint my room purple when I was a kid lmao

Currently watching: ... Does Hazbin count? It's the first new TV show I've watched since Obi-Wan came out. I really have a hard time sitting down and watching TV without feeling like I'm being unproductive so.

Spicy/sweet/savory: Depends? If I had to choose one, I guess it would be sweet.

Relationship status: Engaged!

Current obsession: Oh god, my adhd is currently obsessing over like four things. Hazbin, as I mentioned. FE3H (particularly edeleth and doropetra) is pretty much always on my mind. The new Mirrorverse event for Overwatch has me thinking about Widowtracer pretty hardcore. And my original novel I'm working on.

Oh yeah. Surprise! I'm writing a novel :^)

what kind of love are you | tagged by: @dandylion240 |

Taryn | Love as a Choice

you choose to love. Love does not come to you easily, but every day you wake up and choose it. It would be so easy, wouldn't it, to grow cold and callous and grim. But you rise to greet the world, making the conscious effort to find something, anything to love. When you fall for someone, you do not kid yourself of their flaws. Instead, you resolve to see them for who they are, mistakes and all and you love them all the same. Your love is work, and it does not come easy. Your love sweats and toils. It is calloused and sunburned; it bears scars and comes with stories. Your love is worn, but it is no less valuable for it. Being loved by you is like being loved by a gardener, a mother, a teacher. Your love may not always be the simplest, but it is worth the effort.

Yehl | Love as a Force of Nature

your love is like whiplash –– it comes in with the rain, it blows the doors wide open. When you fall in love, it is sudden and hard and immense. It is powerful. It is earth-shaking and world-ending. Nature is a force, and that force can be destructive if you're not careful. See how the world is doused in gasoline and set on fire ––your love consumes, your love takes, your love burns. You're hot and cold all at once, a hurricane and a wildfire bound together in skin, and when you're in love, it can feel like it's eating you alive from the inside out. When you love, it is with everything you have because it is everything you have. Be careful, darling, because not everyone survives the storm.

thank you to @sisididis for the tag! here's a little snippet from my planned sequel to Winter Pitstop. the context is kimi coming back in 2012 😎

___

“Couldn’t stay away, huh?” Sebastian cheekily sways sideways into him, arms crossed over the parade truck’s rails. The corner of the Finn’s mouth twitches slightly, though the colourful sunglasses make it hard to truly read his expression. “Missed the competition.” “Think you’ll miss the rallying?” Kimi shrugs, taking the time to wave at the cheering fans before replying, “I can go back whenever I want to.” “Not too soon, I hope.” He meant for it for sound playful rather than wishful, but either he absolutely failed at it or his friend simply knows him too well. A pale hand comes down to rest on his shoulder for a brief moment, comforting in its weight if not its intention, and Sebastian stares at his own reflection in Kimi’s orange lenses. “Did you miss me that much?”

Trust Kimi to just ask something like that so easily, as if those words don't carry the burden of misplaced expectations and misaligned schedules. And maybe to Kimi they don't, maybe Sebastian is the only one overthinking, cowardly looking away to fidget with his drinking bottle. “It’s not like that.” He expects to be asked 'what is it like, then?' but Kimi doesn’t push it, instead turning back to the crowd and sparing Sebastian from embarrassing himself further, letting him get away with not finishing what he started. As always.

A small part of him wishes Kimi would pursue it, corner him into answering what exactly is going on between them, make demands of him and force him to spit his feelings out. At least then he’d know he isn’t the only one feeling lost, that he isn't wrong for wanting more.

15 Questions Tag Game

01 - Are you named after anyone?

Nope. Literally was given "the only name your father and I didn't argue about." - the exact response I got.

02 - When was the last time you cried?

Actual deep sobbing? I can't even remember. Tears? Ugh. Playing P3Re right now. It's wrenched a couple out of me.

03 - Do you have kids?

I have dogs. And about a million oc-types.

04 - What sports do you play/have you played?

Softball as a kid. I think that was about it?

05 - Do you use sarcasm?

I'm sorry, is there other ways of communicating?

06 - What is the first thing you notice about people?

i tend to do a general sweep over them. whatever catches my eye is different for everyone - sometimes height or hair, other times an accessory or an attitude.

07 - What's your eye color?

Blue. Pale-boring-blue.

08 - Scary movies or happy endings?

Scary movies. I have a thing where I'm like... not great with happy endings. They make me roll my eyes too much. A good moderate ending though? A+

09 - Any talents?

I'm an excellent mimic - accents, tone, all that. I cook really well (although I think that's more of a skill - I've done it for like... ever. probably longer than a lot of y'all have been alive), I'm told I'm an excellent leader. I think that's a lie.

10 - Where were you born?

New York - upstate. not city. there's a LOT more to NY than the city, I promise. I grew up opposite Toronto on Lake Ontario for anyone who knows the geography.

11 - What are your hobbies?

Uh. Spending way too much time thinking of fictional men. That's the main one really. Gaming. I'm looking forward to the latest FFXIV expansion, and I'm kind of a whore for Persona mainline games. I try to read, but untreated massive stupid mental issues have made that almost impossible.

12 - Do you have any pets?

2 dogs! One is a gigantic labrador retriever (seriously - I grew up with these beasts. he's the tallest one I've ever known, and at 110lbs he is SKINNI), and an 85lb ball of attitude wrapped in black and white fur. The genetics claim he's pitbull/akita/pyr/chow... but I dunno if I believe it. he's an absolute freak though.

13 - How tall are you?

5f7. so, like... idk. 170cm? is that about right?

14 - Favourite subject in school?

Art and English/Literature. I loved French until I got a horrible teacher.

15 - Dream job?

I don't dream of having a job. I dream of finding an enormous drum stuffed full of cash that will allow me to waste my life chasing pleasure and fun instead of working.

Rules: Search your name + core on Pinterest and pick the first 9 pictures.

(This was fun, but I admit I did cheat a little. Only because doing this I got such a flood of ... murder? Dark academia? Occult iconography? Cottagecore but with murder, the occult, and dark academia? I had to scroll surprisingly far to see images that weren't that. And I did want a little variety here. So. I cheated a bit.)
