“I won’t let you be on your own, not when you’re like this.”

image

Lance grimaced at the sound of a voice. However his eyes never left the group of pirates before him. Four of them versus him. He was down on one knee, hand over his side where one of them had caught him with a blade. An him without his usual armor. The wound itself was shallow but it was still a wound. There would be bruises in a few other spots later as well.

He had only meant to do some exploring of this part of the world. He had only seen a small portion from what Miu had shown him before. The last thing he had expected was to be accosted by a bunch of pirates.

He glanced to the speaker finally. “Well if you insist you are not leaving then give me a hand. Otherwise stand aside an stay out of danger. I can’t afford to protect us both right this moment.” He pushed to his feet an raised his sword again. Sky blue eyes once more focused towards those grinning pirates.

11: Describe your character’s childhood friend (Destiney)

image

(Totally had to answer this one first. @ghostly0rigins and I have actually been working on something between Dest and Atix that this covers. :D)

She was more wild and active. Constantly finding something fun to do. Something new to explore. While his nose would rather be buried in a book an being left alone. He was always so passive and quiet compared to her more outgoing nature. Somehow though the two of them had become friends regardless of being near opposites.

Dest would often drag Atix off to see something she found. The two of them connected by their archery and their mothers both being botanists. However she lost touch with him when her parents sent her to Ishgard for a time.

Of course she also had her husband as a childhood friend but he wasn’t nearly as fun to drag about on adventures as Atix had been. He was far less likely to allow her to drag him out into the Twelveswood. An definitely didn’t understand the first thing about archery.

“What are friends for, eh?” for… Lancefer.

image

(Oh this is going to be positively fun. Going to go in the past for this. Prior to the Betrayal prompt I wrote for Lance/Alexois.)

Lancefer wiped the back of his hand across his mouth, wiping away the blood from his busted lip. His breathing was heavy from the fight. Sky blue eyes staring at the two men across from him. Both sporting wounds of their own from the fist fight.

“Go on. Get the hell out of here before I give you another black eye, scumbags.” Alexois shouted at the two Brume thugs. “Or do you want more punishment. I can still go another round if you are looking for more bruises and blood.”

Alexois had a wild grin on his face. Knuckles bloodied but his eyes were alight with pure amusement. The thrill of the fight was burning in him. That much was clearly obvious to Lance as he pushed to stand back up from where he had fallen to one knee. He took to a fighting stance, fists raised as he stood beside Alexois.

The two men apparently thought better then to try Alex’s threat now that the odds had been evened. They gathered themselves an limped off back towards the Brume. Lance breathed a sigh of relief, body sagging and aching from the tussle. Alex was still grinning like a mad man. Halone help him for befriending the duskwight. The man was seriously crazy.

“Thank you, Alex.” Lance told the other man as he felt a hand clapping him on the back.

“What are friends for, eh?”

Alex said with a broad grin.

(Thanks Anon! 😀 Giving me yummy fun to write for Lance/Alex.)

Justice: What is something you’re muse is dying to admit or confess?

image

(Lance so badly wants to admit how bad things feel with his grandfather and father. He wants to admit how dangerous the situation feels. How desperate the situation is making him feel. He is even willing to disobey Tara’s wishes for him to wait a bit longer before challenging Nate to a spar despite the damage his shoulder took from Leera followed by his father reopening the wound. This almost goes back to the breaking point thing from earlier. So far only two people have managed to begin cracking the mask Lance wears over his heart. Tara and Miu. But only Tara truly knows the full depths of what is going on. Yet he still holds back on just how much he is willing to openly admit.)

The Star // The Hanged Man

image

The Star: If your muse had one wish, what would it be?

“I’m not big on wishes. Unless it is to be a successful mercenary. That is about the only thing I want right now.” Karigan idly tosses one of her knives in the air a small way and catching the handle again it as it falls back down. “I don’t care about the past. The past is the past. I got to think of the future, ya get me? An right now the only concern for me is getting to be a good paid mercenary.”

The Hanged Man: Name a bad habit your muse can’t give up.

“I don’t have no bad habits.” Karigan grins as she looks up an down the street. She winces as she hears an angry shout from the far end. “Okay… Maybe one bad habit… Getting in trouble. Or picking fights. Excuse me!” She laughs an bolts in the opposite direction of the two thugs coming down the street after her.

The Tower: What event would trigger your muse’s breaking point?

image

(Dest. Dest. Dest…. She has the most triggers out of all my characters. The one with the most emotional instability. The one who tends to break the easiest. Partly because she was already broken. So there are things from her past that still trigger her breaking point. The way she responds or acts depends on what event we talk about.

If we are talking about fighting people or going near as Castrum… Well those are some pretty rough triggers. They dredge up the nightmares/flash backs, shaking, near mental meltdowns. She is trying to find a way past these right now though with the help of Nate.

If we talk about arguments with people she cares about or failing at something… Well that is mostly hurt feelings and feeling as if she isn’t good enough. Usually this causes her to disappear off to the Shroud to hide or drown her hurt in drinks. Which she is a lightweight so it doesn’t take much. However! Depending how hurtful some of the words said are… She may end up with injuries. Sometimes preferring the physical pain over the mental so she won’t heal them right away. The injuries are never truly on purpose though. She is just reckless while emotionally upset. Which more often then not ends up with her getting injured somehow.)

The Chariot: If your muse ruled the world, what would they change first? (from @sunshineandlotus )

image

“No. Definitely no.” Destiney shakes her head and waves dismissively at the question. “I would not want that much responsibility on my shoulders. I refuse to entertain the idea simply because it would never happen. Not to mention the things I would want are not feasible anyways. You can not force people to change. They have to be willing to change. If you force it there is bound to be those that will revolt against you. The world is never going to be perfect. Even if I did rule the world.”

💬: Write a banter between two of your muses. (any :) )

Destiney’s hands went to her hips. Daisy perched lazily on her shoulder as she looked down at the Seeker sitting on the ground. How she had gotten stuck with such a… Insufferable woman she had no idea.

“Really?! You couldn’t just remain out of trouble for five ticks while I spoke with the man? No you had to go an get yourself into a fight. An what do you have to show for it?” Destiney throws her hands up in mild frustration. Not frustrated enough yet to smack the other woman in the head with her book though.

“I gots him to shut his gob.” Karigan says with a wide grin which made her wince as it pulled at the busted lip. “I don’t take kindly to bullies. Especially kinds like that one over there. Ya get me?”

Destiney sighs an kneels down to better deal with the Miqo’te woman. Gentle hands touched over wounds, sparkling gently with healing magic. “That is all well an good yet there are better ways of dealing with ilk like that then getting yourself busted up.”

“Meh. I deals with people like that however I please. I do thank ya for fixing me up right quick though.” Karigan’s smile wasn’t nearly as bright now but it was still there. Feeling slightly guilty for making the Elezen lass who had agreed to help her deal with this.

“I am a healer. It’s my job. Besides we aren’t finished with this job yet. I can’t very well leave you in this shape.” Destiney put a hand on top of Karigan’s head as she finished taking care of the minor injuries. “All better. Now let’s get moving.”

🎭: With which of your muses can you identify the most?

Destiney. She was meant to be modeled after me in a way. Not completely mind you of course. But there is always that one OC I tend to want to have some connection to me on a personal level. Destiney was that pick for XIV.

Her life isn’t like mine but her emotional state is. A lot of ups and downs but generally a sweetheart with good intentions. Makes mistakes and doubts herself quite often. An in general just wants to make people happy.

@rinhkitty Thanks for Asking!

🐑: Which of your muses is the most peaceful/friendly one?

Destiney as far as friendship goes. She is the one who would be more friendly then the other two. She’s a healer an more then likely to be the one who offers her friendship before the other two would even consider it.

None of them are all that peaceful. Dest has a temper at times. Lance enjoys a good fight too much. Karigan is definitely the furthest from being peaceful. XD If you want peaceful it is not among these three.
