His breath comes out shaky, his body quivering from the midnight chill against his wet clothes—it's not water—and he barely notices Meiko until she is upon him. Her hands are on his shoulders, pressing the still lukewarm liquid—it's not water—against his skin as much as hers.
"I— It's— It's not—"
Nok'to has never killed anyone. At least not so directly, not so violently, not so bloody. He'd never been attacked late at night, never slashed someone's throat without meaning to, never had someone much larger than him fall into him afterwards and soak him in blood.
Tumblr media
Finally, he manages to get the words out, if only to ease the worst of Meiko's fears: "It's not mine—"
The Lyzej family were fishmongers. He was a fishmonger. He grew up learning to wield a fishing rod.
"I— I used to use an axe and I didn't— I didn't account for how much faster— I just reacted and—"
Nok'to pauses, taking one shaky breath, then another before leaning in, pressing his face into Meiko's shoulder. He shouldn't do that; they weren't that close, not yet.
Yet he couldn't stop the way his hands shake, he couldn't steady the breaths starting to come too short, too fast. He couldn't— He couldn't—

if all your characters were modern verse and had youtube channels what kind of content would they create
this is such a funny question i actually giggled at the chaos that could occur dfkgnfdlkd
ryne ; i think she'd have a lot of different things / content, kinda like a vlogger but not just showing her day but rather a lot of things she gets up to. her days arent "normal". baking videos (gone wrong), pranks on the scions, doing my girlfriends makeup ( sorry gaia ) lots of fun :3
alisaie honestly gives me exploring / travel / investigating paranormal spot vibes. she'd involve herself with soo many different people, customs, and while she's firey af she's also verily compassionate and beloved. dragging alphinaud along is a rare tweet, seems like something she'd do with wols
cid builds things. like the youtubers who sound so nice but are talking abt really technical shit that i don't understand ?? that's him. it ranges from "building a go kart out of materials in my garage" to "idk someone asked if i can build a gaming pc so here i am!"
alphinaud is definitely the commentary / gamer boy. he's not that great at the games, but his wild conversations and takes fascinate people. he's just having a good time, and he's also good at diffusing any drama between people. or himself.
haurchefant makes fan videos... jk, but also -- i think he'd just show videos of his animals/chocobos/chickens bc he's really proud of them and doesn't even expect anyone to watch but they do bc he's sooo cute and sweet and treats them like lil people
and finally mina would write songs / do covers ! primarily rock covers because their voice really suits it, but requests as well. they love performing the most outta my guys so they'd rlly put a lot of effort in and aim to entertain

@vierandancer asked 10, 12, 22, 4 Sad Headcanon Q's
10. what is the worst illness your muse has ever had?
Answered Here
4. how many scars does your muse have?
This answer is verse dependent.
For her Kingdom Hearts-related verses, and if we're counting each claw mark as an individual scar, then it'd be six. Three on her left calf from when she got swiped in the village chaos then swiped again at Ophiuchus which inadvertently freed her from her strait-jacket.
[Vagabond Dandelion] She has several burn scars from that dragon Heartless on her right shoulder and creeping closer to the neck and back.
[FFXIV x KH AU] As a result of casting Dark Thundaza in close proximity during the events at Witchdrop, Selena used to have Lichtenberg scars on both of her arms leading to her collarbone and neck areas that healed up over a period of several days.
In her Ace Attorney AU, she has a burn scar that covers her left leg.
12. does your muse tend to push themselves too hard?
Yes, Selena absolutely does and this is a constant for every AU.
22. looking back, what is one thing your muse wishes they had done differently? 
Vagabond Dandelion, Selena wished that she had chosen to reunite with her sister instead of giving into that fear of being hurt again. The fear that she would unintentionally hurt her sister again by going 'Hey I'm alive' then disappearing because she died for real this time.
Her Ace Attorney AU has her dealing with intense survival guilt. She wishes that she had gone with her dad and sister for that ill-fated car ride.

“M'glad you’re all right.”
It was taking all of Meiko’s willpower not to outright apologize. If she had acted more quickly, she could have stopped Ranjit from attacking his own. From knocking the antidote for the Night’s Blessed from his hands and forcing Y'shtola to make a split-second decision that could have very well cost her her life.
It sort of had, actually. In a way. Meiko did not like being indebted to Emet-Selch, nor did she trust his dramatic monologues – but she could admit he had assisted them. And what mattered was that Y'shtola was back with them, safe and sound now in the Crystarium.
Safe and sound…for now.
“Not feelin’ too out o'sorts after your second trip to the Lifestream?”
She knew better than to overly dote on Y'shtola of all people, but Meiko wanted to let her know she cared. She had been far too intimidated by the Archon to properly communicate her admiration for her until that emotional revolution of hers, forced to fight Elidibus – “Zenos” – alone. She could only do her best now to bridge the gap. Or try.
In the transition from full sight to halos and shades, Y'shtola would have liked to believe she had adapted fairly well. And with haste, too! Still yet, it had been disturbing to have her frame of reference so muddied when looking once more upon Meiko's radiant silhouette. As experiences go, it was certainly not one she relished, in the least.
Even now, her heart stirred at the early signs of her arrival. Before she could mark the woman's Limsan brogue, an unsettling fetter of light effused the aether in all around her. Inanimate objects lined like froth in furious waves, a bellowed beating, almost too bright to parse. Her bodily reaction was to tense, as if weapons might be needed. Her mind, however, soothed those muscles. No Sineater could come this far without notable exordium. The Crystarium was safe, if not heavily fortified.
"Ah." 'Master Matoya' tilted her head just so, amusement on her face. "I trust I did not task you terribly? I am well. Better, I imagine, than had I sought the end of that drop."
That was truer fear.
Beyond any Sineater's gleam, regardless of nature, not had startled her more sincerely than the yawn of the void, near-entirely bereft of aetheric impression, save that which lingered in the empty air. Might she have derived a more preferable outcome? A neater exit strategy?
Mayhap.
The Night's Blessed would not die. Into that stream of pure energy, of formation, battered by its body, it was this knowledge which steeled her. Could she have been better? Could she have known more? Oh, it was questions as that which Y'shtola was more than acquainted. It was nary her entire focus of study. Yes. Better that the antidote find the Warrior of Darkness' hands.
After all, Louisoix had seen in all of them a willingness.
"What of you, my friend? Need you aught I might provide?"

@vierandancer asked:
❛ rough day today? ❜ Non-Wol Dancer Meiko @ - K'lyhhia
K'lyhhia had practically collapsed into a seat upon arriving at the tavern, exhaling a sigh of relief now that she could finally relax. The Scions didn't seem to have any business to attend to today, so it was turning out to be a rarely afforded day of peace.
Perhaps she had looked too relieved however, as a voice soon speaks up from nearby. Ears swivel in its direction before her head follows, and she blinks before sitting up straight and offering a sheepish smile to the Viera who had addressed her.
Tumblr media
"Oh. Not today, surprisingly. This is the first time I've been able to relax in days." She replies, rubbing at the back of her neck before tilting her head inquisitively. "I don't see very many Viera in Eorzea. Do you live here, or are you just visiting?" She settles into a more friendly smile. She may as well try to strike up a conversation while she was here.

"If I only could, I'd make a deal with the gods, and get them to swap our places..."
Thancred wasn't overly drunk, but he did feel a slight buzz. However, he would also often mumble to himself and convey his most personal thoughts out loud. It was only when he finished his ale did he realize he was not alone.
"Ah, mine apologies. I did not see you there..." He offered a smile, but it didn't seem to reach his eyes. "Come, sit, have a drink with me."

hmmm sineater au for thanced :D
Send me an AU and I'll tell you what my muse would be like in that AU | ✿
Tumblr media
He was fine. Even as he grew ill, it was fine.
That was what he had told them in life-- insisted, really. The guilt was eating at him from the inside out, but he was fine. There were bigger things to be worried about, after all.
No, he wasn't practically burning himself alive, the boiling presence of something more churning his guts each and every time he uttered the words: It's fine; I understand. There was more at stake than facing his own mortality, let alone all the ugliness that remained within.
As the days went by, it grew increasingly harder to turn the other cheek to the inner turmoils of the body and mind. There was the same repeating phrase that weighed at his shoulders more, and more, each time it crossed: I wish I had done more; I wish I could have done things differently. I wish, I wish, I wish.
Wishes didn't come true; Guilt ate at his heart, mind, and soul.
The transformation was sudden, but at the very least, his companions knew the signs of it when it was about to start.
Eyes were a flood of light, dripping like molten gold down his face in streams of tears to be forever branded on a marble-like visage. Three wings sprouted from his back as if bursting from a fleshy cocoon: Two on his left, and one on his right. A third eye grew from his forehead, impassive gaze blinding with light shining through it, whilst the two he already had glazed over in stone, forever doomed to shed those molten tears. Weapons were ripped from his very ribs, a mournful scream leaving his lips for one last time as bone shaped itself into a pair of deadly blades hovering at either side of him, his Gunblade morphing within his hold to be a third.
And as fast as it had happened... it had stopped. Gone was the broken man clinging to a past he couldn't go back and change, and there instead stood a mock statue of his memory, reflecting the ache and mourning once held inside.
Thancred: the Forgiven Guilt.

@vierandancer said: "M'just sayin'...murder's an option." Is Meiko kidding? Maybe. Probably not. @ Alphinuad
' TECHNICALLY YES ! but it's also illegal in many cases. ' alphinaud's response came with the practiced patience of someone whose spent many days with meiko. he was fairly certain she meant it as a joke, though he wouldn't put it past her quite so readily either. the forum members were a stuffy bunch, even for alphinaud. he remembers vague, polite conversation with a few of them before venturing away from sharlayan -- and not much else. ' what if we avoid murder for this present moment ? '

@vierandancer from here
"Of course I do!" Tataru responded happily, "I get to be able to do something for people. Being the desk person for the Scions was something, sure, but it felt like I never got to go out and actually do anything." It was part of why she had the entire Arcanist phase of hers... What a mess that turned out to be. "But now, it feels like I'm making a difference day by day. It's really fulfilling."
Upon the topic of her favorite current project, it took her a moment to think about it, before she felt an overly large smile form on her face. "Speaking of a favorite project- Has any of your measurements changed? I'd love to make something for you again if you'd like!"

"--Wait. You're tellin' me Nashmeira never made you go through the bloody," She gestured to her own body, still recovering from the Troupe's quarterly waxing session. "Scrapin' o'th'fields?!" [To Kijin have fun :D ]
INBOX CALL ⇢ @vierandancer
Tumblr media
"Scraping of the—"
He paused as the confusion set into his brows disappeared, replaced with the realization of what she meant. Ah. It made sense that she'd be confused, given Nashmeira's penchant for... aesthetics and personal hygiene besides.
Tumblr media
"She thinks I get it done on my own time," he said, answer plain, though he knew that wouldn't be near enough to satisfy Meiko's desire to know more. "There's a cream you can make that basically does the same thing. Doesn't last as long, but it's not painful. Managed to convince her the first time that I do it on my own time."
But given Meiko's state, he needed to make sure he made some. Soon. Or Nashmeira would be after him for the thin layer of dark hair on his arms alone.
"Also, pants."
He was not about the let Nashmeira in on the barely-hidden secret that he did, in fact, wear enough short skirts that the women's uniform wouldn't be... entirely out of the question, though he admittedly wasn't used to that much of his legs showing without at least some stockings to cover them...

"Ale's weak tonight," Meiko muttered to her drinking partner. "Gonna have t'double up on everythin' t'make up for it--"
Tumblr media
"Its how these places get ya... " She grumbled to the woman beside her, taking a long sip from the mug. "Watered down swill so you pay twice. I got a trick tho."
Reaching into her jacket she pulls out a flask, whatever was in it smelled strong. She puts just one shot into hers, before holding it out to Meiko.

@vierandancer asked "S'nasty bruise, there. Where'd that come from?"
Tumblr media
It takes her a minute or two to catch on to what Meiko spoke of. She hadn't noticed the large bruise that covered her whole forearm, sleeve rolled up for a reason she now forgot. She blinks. The bruise is still healing, the edges yellowing, but a good portion is still black and blue.
"I...I think that happened after I fell or maybe after I tripped and fell. I must have landed on it...," the young keybearer answers quietly. She immediately figured out that she must have acquired the injury at Witchdrop.
Selena remembered that the snow did not cushion her fall and that she had fallen on her face several times afterward. If not from the two mentioned incidents, then from the recoil of Thundaza's spell when it threw her away. She knew that she had several other related injuries on the mend.
She grows quiet and forcibly pulls the sleeve down. Selena did not want to talk about Witchdrop.

🐲 - Not sure why Meiko has a dragon egg, but it's definitely best she not keep it
Tumblr media
And Meiko decided that he was the better choice for the dragon egg??? But congrates to him, he has to somehow hatch the said egg as he sighs a bit. "Guess we're going all the way with the dragon aspect huh? But I think I'll wrap it up and put it near a fireplace instead....that should help."

Would Yugiri ever consider returning home if the WOL okayed it with the Ruby Princess?
Yugiri would absolutely love to return home and actually show her face there again, to reunite with her parents and brothers, but she probably wouldn't return to living there.
She has grown too accustomed to living on land and has too many responsibilities that now hold her there - not to mention how she doesn't wish to leave Hien's side or service any time soon.

"Shame you couldn't come to the Source with me, Feo Ul. M'sure you'd find it entertainin', at least." Perhaps too entertaining, but at least with an entirely new world to explore, she wouldn't be so easily bored! And there were more than a few wains she'd introduce her to.
Tumblr media
"Would you truly invite me home with you if you could, my adorable sapling?" Feo Ul rubbed her palms together with such glee! It was such a very sweet, thoughtful sentiment! "Alas, as I've said, I am tied to this star. But just knowing you have that wish has made your lovely branch so very happy~. If there ever is a way for me to travel with you to other worlds, I promise you -- I will find it."
Or, rather, the King could harrass the Nu Mou to look into it? Yes, yes, that sounded like an excellent idea...
