felt like writing something for zoeymau :)
waking up early in the morning is always difficult. but when the live-in caretaker for your kids comes in holding a plate of food and a bright voice, it's hard to be upset. when her singing matches the bright blue sky and the shining sun it can put a smile on anyone’s face.
"aphmau, darling!" with a smile, and a nickname they picked up from lucinda and donna, she sat on the edge of the bed. "garroth wanted to talk with you, said something about the guard tower and making sure brian comes back to something presentable." zoey never cleaned up their messages from people, except when needed. her elf side granted her amazing hearing abilities, and their fairy side lets her easily see what people are hiding.
"thanks, zoey." sitting up aphmau took the plate. it had eggs- most likely stolen from the chicken shaman, bacon that kiki most likely gave, with some corn flakes on top from molly. aphmau noticed zoey watching her and motioned with their fork to say what was on their mind.
zoey stood and walked to the door, looking behind her. that was always their signal to follow, so aphmau did while carrying the plate. zoey was practically bouncing down the stairs as aphmau was slowly waking up. cadenza stood in the main entryway with a collection of clothes. "good morning, lord aphmau!" she curtsied.
"whats this?" aphmau asked picking up a corner of a dress, after setting the food down of course. cadenza held her hand and spun in a circle, "it's some of the clothes you wanted! i think you'd be tired of washing the same outfit every night, huh?" aphmau looked down at himself, nodding in agreement.
cadenza held a purple dress up, it was off the shoulder and reached the floor. "this can be for formal events," next was a button up with rolled sleeves, "this can be pared with any of these pants-" she motioned to the front of the rack where they sat folded over on makeshift hangers. phoenix drop still needed more money since the mine had little iron after all these years.
as cadenza continued, zoey looked to the lord of phoenix drop. they felt her heartwarming seeing how her hair shone in the early morning light, how their face showed how tired he still was, at practically everything about her. zoey felt the light heat on their face and remembered all of the nights as she and aphmau would spend talking.
it's different hearing someone say how they feel as compared to feeling it through other circumstances. holding them in their arms and stroking his hair, it felt like time had stopped. remembering the days when aphmau would, as advised by everyone in the village, take a break and relax for the day watching the kids the two were raising. well, aphmau would try her damndest to take care of levin and malachi, but as soon as they got to play father a guard would come runnign up for something trivial.
zoey can still see the eyeroll and sigh, a promise to come back as soon as possible. she would boop their kids nose and start running. he always made sure to turn back and wave, smile bigger than the ocean. zoey tapped the lord on the shoulder, after feeling the warmth subside, pointing to the downstairs.
"oh yes, of course, i'll be down soon!" aphmau smiled as she held their hand, squeezing it lightly. zoey nodded and waved to cadenza, who said goodbye in response. heading down to the playroom, where she had left malachi in charge, they saw them drawing on some spare paper.
"what's up, you two?" zoey asked as she knelt down inbetween them. malachi turned to them, as levin was preoccupied. "we wanted to draw, so i found the paper and levin found the colors."
there was a vendor who came into town, holding things like writing utensils and papers. he had a box of wax sticks that could transfer onto some of the paper, and all the kids of the village got a set. zoey smiled and reached for a paper and a red wax stick. she tapped her finger as she held it when levin tugged on her sleeve.
"what's up, buddy?" zoey asked as they turned. levin held the paper in front of his face, being a little shy. there were figures in purple, green, blue, and brown. they were standing on a green like next to a thicker brown line with green scribbled on top of it. "it's us!"
zoey held the paper delicatly, taking everything in. she brought levin closer in a half hug, "wow levin, this looks great!" he smiled at them and gave her a hug around the middle, with which they held him with an arm. malachi held out their paper to zoey, looking to the ground but still wanting to see her reaction.
it was a more detailed dawing, not by much, of the same-colored figures. but this time, the purple one held the blue one and the green held brown, there was a cruving yellow shape and below it was blue. "it's us that day on the beach, when mom had taken a few days to themselves."
zoey held it and noticed the smiling faces. they brought malachi into the same arm hold at her side and kissed the top of their head. "i love it. looks like we've got some artists on our hands!" levin laughed as malachi shook their head into zoey's arm.
doing whatever kept the kids, mostly levin's, attention zoey started to get a little tired. cadenza had knocked on the door and asked if the kids wanted to see their parents’ new outfit. they both ran to the door as cadenza stepped back, knowing they were going to slam the door open.
aphmau stood outside the doorway, and the first thing zoey noticed was the flowers. there were peonies, violets, and bits of lavender sticking out atop their head. he was wearing a loose button up, cuffed at her elbows, and pants which had a strap for a small blade. their shoes were new too, being navy boots.
the kids showed their excitement, complimenting both cadenza and their father. malachi asked where cadenza got the material for the boots as levin was playing with his mother’s hand. aphmau squeezed his hand to try and remind him to breath, since he was talking so fast.
zoey stepped forward after the heat subsided once more, taking aphmau into a tight hug. cadenza escorted the kids upstairs by bringing up the playground outside, as she looked back zoey had picked up aphmau into a spin. she smiled to herself as she heard the two laughing, a sound of pure joy.
garroth had come over to talk with the lord about what needed to be done that day, but cacdenza distracted him by asking for help with the kids. he reluctantly agreed, saying something about the guard tower. levin had run up to him and grabbed his armored hand and led him to the sand box, malachi swinging by themselves.

Hey, guys! We’re continuing prep for sectionals this week...specifically working hard in the paint on “Kids in America”, so niners and sophomores...get ready to really break out your dancing shoes and...ditch that extra soda at lunch, because I’m not nearly in the mood to deal with all the ridiculousness and screaming. That aside, this week is going to be an interesting week...and it’s one of my favorite assignments, because it gives you the opportunity to talk to and work with someone you maybe haven’t met before...or maybe try something different with a friend! The possibilities are endless!
This week is duets week! I’m going to read out the list...and from that point forward...you can pair up, discuss do whatever! Oh, and there’s one group of three, because we have an odd number!

enki time !!!
so, fun fact... for years i thought enki {dw} was enki {mom} so guess what i diiiid :)))))
enki the scrybe, she/her. her style was very androgynous so some would be confused when meeting {as well as historians/religious historians who depict enki as a man by mys time}
warlock, studied alongside hyria
very sarcastic/sardonic, which the other warriors were fine with. her rage was to be feared, though
before being immortal she lived as a librarian
wherever the group went the old habits would kick in, she’d start writing everything down. from the actions of her friends to rich descriptions of their location- their maroon cloak had thousands of pockets to keep all of the journals in. and if she ever ran out of space or didn’t have a blank one on her when finished, kul’zak would always have a friendly smile and whatever she needed
she still remembers the night and day she became immortal by irena’s hand. they had waited for everyone to wake up, as she was the last to wake. having vague recollections of her friends words, they had promised to never part from anyone
everyone had woken up with symbols, and after asking what they meant irena had said they were the mark of immortality. enki’s was above her navel
irena had also stated that they gained a new set powers. they all had a, previously unused, pocket dimension that could suit their fancies however they wanted. enkis had a dark oak seaside cabin, where the dark sky never changing, and a sea breeze so strong it would permeate outside of the dimension. 
after the demon despot had started the war, wanting to expand his reach and power, enki had enough. their friends had already started making plans aruond the time they met in case he got too much, and enki had interjected his weaknesses as often as she could
has 4 kids, oldest to youngest: leif, luka, sasha, and travis
she was the first one to reincarnate after irena had told everyone about it
reincarnated into travis, every time the demon despot fights travis he can see enki’s spirit close to their son. it was less about experiencing life in a new way, but more about ‘passing’
enki had spent a couple years in yggdrasil coille with everyone, had met an elve and had a fling. thus came leif! leif is currently 512, and knows the most about any of the kids mother
as the warriors were sailing they had landed on a sprites island, who had taken a liking to enki. poof! luka was born, and age is not a concept for sprites but was born after leif
years later, they had been asked to help old bright port with the mermaids and sirens. one night, after everyone had gone to sleep, a merman was on a rocky beach singing. he had noticed enki, and had tried to run when enki caught his wrist and asked him to sing more with care in her eyes. boom, sasha!
the group had found an abandoned werewolf village that had a working nether portal. they had to see how dangerous it was by checking where it led, as esmund had offered to monitor the outside the rest went in. after making friends with nearby creatures that could ‘walk’ on lava, they had found a large dark building. they had tried to report back as fast as they could, but shad and teine had rushed to get inside. with irena and enki sighing in sync kul’zak had laughed and called for them to catch up. after going through the entire castle there was no one to find. later at night, though, long after the fire had gone out, he appeared.
the demon despot and enki had known each other for years before getting together. once the war broke out, though, and she carried his child she decided she was done in this cycle and had to restart. she chose to become the child she was giving birth to, wanting to erase all traces of her ex

{nicole -> neala, nicole is a fake name as stated by nicole {still working on some so names may have changes bc of jessica 🙄}}
anyway here’s a quick idea for how neala met roxy :)
ripping a piece of meat off its bone with more force than intended, neala was glancing at the fox out the corner of her eye. with the fire going, the starry sky, and the relaxed pose it felt right. chewing, she started, "you wan' a name, lil guy?"
the fox tilted its head, paws on either side of the bone to hold it down. it sniffed at the meat gestured to it and glanced up at her. with a scoff and a smile, neala looked forward. "roxy, i like you, but you better not die." she wiggled the bone at them. "okay?"
roxy picked up their food and laid down in her lap. she started petting them and felt content for the first time in years.

alright since i keep procrastinating the wyvern post have some quick life ideas i wrote for some divine warriors :)
first up is menphia
Her world started with screaming. As most babies are, it was her and her mother mostly. Her dad was trying to calm his wife down, the nurse was repeating calming words to the new family. The baby was the loudest though, and that paved the way.
She ran and jumped as much as possible. She would pick and finish fights, lead adventures, and always had a band-aid on hand. Her mother would sooth her as the medicinal plants were being chewed, her father would distract and try to make her laugh. As her clothes were torn and dirty, her hair messy and full of knots, and she was full of joy.
As her family had to sail away for a year, she would play on the boat. Since she was older, she was slightly safer. She would swing from rope to rope, climb the mast to point towards land, and do menial tasks to help. Her mother would have her hair held by her father, rubbing his poor wife’s back. Their daughter would bring over quick snacks and drinks that, somehow, always helped alleviate it for a little bit.
Once back after her trip, since they went for convenience because of school, she proudly wore her 'banned and expelled' badge on her chest. She lasted until she was fourteen, and her parents were saddened. They put time and money into the prospect but knew that their daughter wouldn't be happy there. The scandal was big enough from a nearby school that they felt justified.
Once she formed her friend groups, being old enough to get out of the house, her boisterousness down a level. She'd only gotten more and more comfortable with herself. Once, while drunk and throwing up, she met them.
They scooped her hair back and asked, "A bheil thu ceart gu leòr? Are you okay?" with a tone that mixed soft concern and unconcerned. Their dark hair and blue hood obstructed their face. She hadn't felt so warm in forever. As she turned to thank them, they wiped some drool from her face. They smiled. They were so beautiful in the lights of the sky, torches, and lamps.
One day, after throwing around remarks of never wanting this to end, Irena said "Chan fheum seo crìochnachadh. This does not have to end." their accent coming back. They had taught all of them Common Tongue, thus making life easier for those out of the City. Esmund said "Leanaidh mi thu gu deireadh an t-saoghail, Irena. I will follow you to the end of the world, Irena." Enki concurred saying "Ciamar as urrainn dhomh a bhith beò às aonais gin agaibh. How I can live without any of you." with an eyeroll. "Mar gum biodh fear againn deònach sin a leigeil seachad! As if one of us is willing to give that up!" was called out by Kul'Zak as xe grabbed their hand with a slight slap.
"Am bu toil leat tighinn còmhla rium? Would you like to join me?" The kind stranger held out their hand. She grabbed it with as much haste when you're nauseous. Her life changed so dramatically; it was like a wonderful whirl-wind of a new life. New friends that felt like old family. Like they were a missing piece.
They met her parents, which felt even more right. Loud laughter, adrenaline rushes from friendly fights, stories from times nostalgic or bleak. It was beautiful, glorious, better than anything she could have dreamed. She loved her family, and they loved her.
Irena turned towards her. "Menphia?" She looked at their hand. Nails always clean, hair always shiny and soft, cold eyes that had a certain softness. Menphia's life has only gotten better since meeting her friends. “Tha gaol agam ort uile. Chan urrainn dhomh smaoineachadh air beatha às aonais gin agaibh. Chan eil dòigh ann an ifrinn a bheil mi a 'dol seachad air sin! I love you all. I can't imagine life without any of you. There's no way in hell I can go beyond that!" She slammed her hand down onto the pile.
She turned towards Shad with wild eyes. "Thig air adhart, Shad! Tha fios agam nach toireadh tu seachad seo, thig còmhla rinn! Come on, Shad! I know you wouldn't give up this, join us!" as ze closed his eyes and sighed. "Ceart gu leòr.tha mi ag aontachadh.Bhiodh beatha ...dòrainneach às aonais gin agaibh. Okay. I agree. Life would be ...be boring without any of you." Shad had a smile betraying zer face, and softly joined the pile. Irena put her hood down as she started to talk. Or was it a chant? Not like it mattered. This family would never be broken up. Menphia would always have her parents and friends, no matter what if this was true. She loved all of them, as much as she could. They'll stay together forever, as long as possible.
When the group opened their eyes though, what they mostly felt was pain. Menphia noticed it was nothing like she had felt before. Her friends were screaming and getting out the energy in their own ways, gritting her teeth and digging her nails into her palm. Nothing new, but also nothing old. It stung, it burned, it felt like hell. But, once it was done, they felt like home.

kul’zak!!
Once their chase had ended, that's when xe decided it was time to be born. He was demanding to be set free, and their parents had started to freak out. The couple had tried before for a child, with success just out of their grasp. Both of them were crying in joy, fear, and excitement to see what would come.
Xe was always creating maps of fake worlds, stories entwined like the clothes his mother would make. They could come at night, which is why they had a candle and writing utensils nearby. They could come when xe were playing in the backyard, to which he would make a big motion to their parents to not step on it, going to run inside for paper. They also came when staring at the ocean, those being the family’s favorite.
Architecture unthought of by builders, which would have wowed them. Some, eventually, would try to replicate the details scratched and crossed out. It was always fun to see when they would come to fruition, but xer name had long since faded by then.
Once being introduced to the life skills his parents had them sit through, eventually with added siblings, they became a big help around the town. Odd jobs, mostly from smiths oddly enough, payed well. But xer favorites were the nearby school and seamstresses. He would always sneak a glance at the world map, childhood fascination coming back in waves. The seamstresses would always hand them candy and would ask about life.
One day, after someone outside of town came in speaking unknown tongue. The first time xe had heard it spoken, he ran up to them and asked questions. The person didn't know what they were saying until a seamstress came from the back, giving a kiss on the cheek after wrapping an arm around their waist. After about a week of asking for lessons, the couple gave in.
Xe was learning O'Khasian from the friend, and he helped with her Gaelic. Eventually, their siblings wanted to learn too. Xe obliged, and soon most of their friends were speaking it too. Some parents were worried but were happy their kids were willing to try something new.
Once having a grip on two languages, he wanted to learn more. The couple didn't know any more, and books weren't helpful-- especially with the inability to focus on that genre. Once more people had come in the shop asking for cloth after a voyage, they would always try to casually start a conversation. The seamstress would just give away the secrecy, and the client would laugh.
Once learning as many as xe could, along with some helpful tips and tricks, he set off into the unknown. Their family was sad to see xem go, but waved and cried all the same. The people that had helped him this far were there too, yelling in their native tongues while the boat was departing. They were going to miss all of them, hoping to come back and share stories one day.
But, one day, they appeared. Sitting on a hill, dress and hood billowing from the wind. Xe pointed out the fabric when he sat down, and they looked at them as if xe was something entirely foreign. They spoke, eventually, and fell into bouts of silence and talking. It was comfortable, and it felt like home. They asked about his bag, since it looked like it was about to burst open. They shared anecdotes of objects as they were being pulled out, and the stranger nodded along.
The stranger eventually asked, "Am faod mi còmhla riut? Can I be with you?" To which xe grabbed their hand in a vicious shake and responded "Dè an seòrsa duine a bhithinn mura bithinn? What kind of person would I be if I were not?" and with a smile added, "Is e m 'ainm Kul'Zak, agus thusa? My name is Kul'Zak, and you?" With a coy smile they responded, “Cha d’ fhuair mi am freagairt dha sin fhathast, ach aon uair ‘s gun dèan mi sin roinnidh mi. I have not yet received the answer to that, but once I do that I will share." and jerkily shook back.
After meeting an array of people from traveling, mostly lead by Kul'Zak, his life had gotten so much more colorful. Years of this feeling, and somehow it never faded. After Irena shared their name, Kul'Zak couldn't be more overjoyed. They were so happy for them. Once, though, a terrible day had transpired. Xe didn't mind talking about it, but a long story deserves its own fire. In the end, Kul'Zak gave his eye to them. Their familiar cold eyes had a mix of pity and comfort as they had fallen to the ground.
"A bheil thu a 'smaoineachadh gum bi sinn còmhla gu bràth mar seo? Do you think we will be together forever like this?" was what broke the silence one knight. Enki had been the first to respond. "Còmhla mar ann an infinity, no còmhla gus an sgaoil sinn? Together as in infinity, or together until we spread?" Kul'Zak flipped onto their stomache as Esmund spoke up. "Chan eil leithid de rud ann ri 'infinity'. Tha na tha againn gus an tig e gu crìch. There is no such thing as 'infinity'. We have what it takes until it ends." Always a realist, that one.
"Thig air adhart, tha fios agam air sin. Ach smaoinich! Gun chrìoch le toileachas agus seallaidhean ri fhaicinn! Come on, I know that. But think! Endless with joy and sights to see!" Xe said with joy, before Enki tapped his knuckle and countered with "Kul'Zak. Chan eil ann ach uiread de dh'fhearann, eadhon tarsainn na mara. Bhiodh e eu-comasach dha seo a bhith fìor. Kul'Zak. There is only so much land, even across the sea.This would be impossible to be true." as Esmund nodded. Irena's eyes had sparkled at this.
"Chan fheum seo crìochnachadh. This does not have to end." Kul'Zak paused. This was all they ever wanted. Never having to stop the fun with xer friends, being together forever and in bliss with all of his family. Enki opened her mouth to try and deter this line of thinking, to bring reality's light back, but Esmund had already responded. He had held their hand to show his dedication.
"Ciamar as urrainn dhomh a bhith beò às aonais gin agaibh. How I can live without any of you." came from Enki as she joined, caving to the fantasy. Kul'Zak joined, "Mar gum biodh fear againn deònach sin a leigeil seachad! As if one of us is willing to give that up!" Menphia shouted out “Tha gaol agam ort uile. Chan urrainn dhomh smaoineachadh air beatha às aonais gin agaibh. Chan eil dòigh ann an ifrinn a bheil mi a 'dol seachad air sin! I love you all. I can't imagine life without any of you. There's no way in hell I can go beyond that!" Eventually Shad joined the pile too. Irena began to speak over their hands, must be something from their old home to show someone is true to their word.
At first, it was at a moderate volume. Then it grew with the glow of their cold eyes. “Air an latha seo, anns an t-seusan seo, biodh fios nach eil sinn gu bràth air ar sgaradh. A' bualadh ar cridheachan mar aon, còmhla gu bràth. Ma dh'fheumas ar beatha crìochnachadh, coinnichidh sinn ri chèile air a' cheann thall gun dealachadh. Biodh fios aig na speuran air seo cho math ris an talamh agus a’ mhuir. Biodh seo aithnichte dha na h-uile, anail no nach bi: Bidh sinn còmhla eadhon ged a dh’ fheuchas an cruinne-cè ri stad a chuir oirnn. Cha toir sinn a-steach gu bràth, agus lorgaidh sinn a chèile gu bràth. Biodh e ainmean a tha air an atharrachadh, no ar n-iomlan fhèin.
On this day, in this season, know that we are never separated. Beating our hearts as one, together forever. If our life needs to end, meet together forever. If our lives need to end, we will eventually meet together without separation. The skies would know this as well as the land and the sea. The skies would know this as well as the land and the sea. Let this be known to all, breath or not: We will be together even if the universe tries to stop us. We will never give up, and we will find each other forever. Be it names that are altered, or our own whole."
After what felt like forever, and gaining concerned stares from some, they added one last statement with downcast, burning eyes. "Tha gaol agam oirbh uile. I love you all." And just like that, it was like the fire in their eyes was expelled. It stung worse than anything they had encountered, screams and yells being appropriate reactions to the feeling. Everyone screamed, Kul'Zak had a fleeting thought from the pain to worry about the group’s lungs collapsing.
When Kul'Zak awoke, Irena had gathered everyone’s bodies in their lap. They stroked xer face as the memory of last night was forgotten, being cut off before the chant. "Ciamar a tha thu a' faireachdainn, a charaid? How are you feeling, friend?" As they pushed some hair from covering their eye, they spoke. "Chan eil mi cinnteach. Ach tha fios agam gu bheil an t-acras orm. I'm not sure. But I know I'm hungry."
Enki had woken up by this point, still being disoriented from the sleep. "Irena... Dè thachair? Càit a bheil sinn? Irena... What happened? Where are we?" She stroked some grass to her side as Irena looked towards her. "Tha sinn ann an raon òir. Cho luath 's a bhios a h-uile duine na dhùisg, ithidh sinn. We are in a golden realm. As soon as everyone is awake, we will eat." was all they said before looking up at the clouds. "Chan urrainn dhomh a chreidsinn gu bheil seo a 'tachairt... I can't believe this is happening..."

shad time!
Silence. That was how ze came into the world. His mother had passed while giving birth, most likely hours ago, and zer dad was the only one left. Battlefields were never good, especially for an expecting couple covered in blood. His dad was in hysterics, almost unable to believe that it was happening.
His dad had passed dark hair, while his late wife lended her eyes. Those eyes got his son in and out of trouble as a kid, some of the townspeople started placing bets. After zer first haircut, he got so many compliments. Ze decided to never do it again, feeling comfortable with being seen as an unkempt child.
The kids would offer to play, but he'd just stare. Ze found it fun, the others were uncomfortable. His eyes is what they kept coming back to, describing zem and why they were drawn to him. Eventually, after zer dad had died, he set off for a new life. Or, at least, a new way of camouflage.
Zer liked watching the grass sway in the wind. Leaves flowing to the tune of birds songs. Bushes jumping with the animals. Rain making him blink when ze looked up at the gray clouds. The sun burning brightly. Lightning leaving streaks and announcements that shook hearts. People could not compare to this, in his eyes, and could never be as fascinating.
After years of coasting along towns, picking up phrases and mashing together colloquial terms of places that hated each other, everything started to feel slower. The sky moved slower, the stars came out later, the wind was weak. Ze feared this would happen. He didn't want to go into a cave to try and repeat the fascination. Staring at old scenery with old eyes, especially if ze remembers what it looked like.
Then they came into his life. Ze was holding his head, back slouching against a wall crying. Ze hated crying, it never felt right when he did it. But when a stranger had touched the stream of tears, it felt like everything had clicked. He was so caught off guard ze stopped sniffling to look up.
"Carson a tha thu a' caoineadh? An ann air sgàth eagail? Why are you crying? Is it because of fear?" Their hood was covering their eyes. Skin soft, fingertips calloused, and eyes welcoming with a cold embrace. He would come to love those eyes after traveling with them for so long. Others were picked up, some ze introduced to. It was... pleasant. It reminded him of when zer dad would sing to him growing up.
The soothing melody erupting from an otherwise quiet man. Ze would always watch his body language. He figured that's what zer dad felt like all of the time with his mother. Ze wished he could have met her at some point, hearing stories when ze asked and watching his father’s face light up with reminiscence and longing. Ze wanted to know what it would feel like for another person to spark that level of joy.
Once, after collecting food for him and zer friends, Irena spoke up after Kul'Zak messing with Enki, making offhanded remarks about never stopping their explorations. "Chan fheum seo crìochnachadh. This does not have to end." He thought they were messing with them, their first attempt at a joke for months. It was rare, but never clear when it happened. Esmund, secretly a people pleaser, answered and moved first. "Leanaidh mi thu gu deireadh an t-saoghail, Irena. I will follow you to the end of the world, Irena."
Enki, who ze found pleasant as well, rolled her eyes and slid her hand in with a smile. "Ciamar as urrainn dhomh a bhith beò às aonais gin agaibh. How I can live without any of you." Kul'Zak smiled and yelled "Mar gum biodh fear againn deònach sin a leigeil seachad! As if one of us is willing to give that up!"
He remembers the time xe gave his eye to Irena. They bit back wails and pledged fealty to them. To some, like Menphia, it was admirable. To zem however, it seemed like an inconvenience when there were easier ways to show the same feeling. While lost to thinking, he heard Menphia jest zem. "Thig air adhart, Shad! Tha fios agam nach toireadh tu seachad seo, thig còmhla rinn! Come on, Shad! I know you wouldn't give up this, join us!"
Once fully out of thought, he placed his hand on top. Whatever may happen, he'd do it with the people who he would inspect like grass on a windy day. Ze would watch them like bugs on bark, like lightning in the distance, like bushes, like they were some of the liveliest people he had ever met. That's when Irena had finished their monologue and ze felt hell fire like his mother’s old books had talked about.
Worse then when ze found his dad clutching zer mothers portrait and memoire crying, worse than when he had to defend zer fathers reputation from the other adults, worse than when people would try to discredit his dads hard work and emotions from war, worse than when his pets would pass away and ze would watch his father bury them from the second story window clutching a stuffed doll that looked like them. It felt worse than when zer dad died, passed out in the backyard.
He remembers the pain and grief of burying zer dad with the same shovel he was teaching him to use for a future job. Ze still remembers the look on his dads’ face when ze would ask about any stories from wars since the other people in town didn't believe him. The flinch at the mere word was enough to know it was real, but of course people would discredit him since all of his scars was buried under layers of cloth; emotions hidden behind reflective glasses.
It fucking hurt. Then, just as abruptly, it started to fade. He must have been in shock and zer body had shut down. He blinked his eyes so they would take in all they could. Irena was above zem. He stared into their eyes and brushed their hair. "Irena. Innis dhomh carson... Irena. Tell me why ..."They merely saved zer eyes from the sun and responded with "Chì sibh uile a dh'aithghearr, mo charaidean gràdhach. See you all soon, my dear friends."

here is the last one, probably going to reuse some stuff too
two men stand shoulder to shoulder on the towns border. the shorter of the two speaks animatedly, "what are we going to do? since mr malik passed and miss matilda have gone missing, the people have been at our throats!" the older rests a hand on his shoulder. "don't worry, zenix. all will work out soon." zenix feels a gaze and turns towards the forest. behind a tree someone flees, knowing their mission will start soon...
someone wakes up in a feild, the sun blinding her as she sits up. they used their hand as a sheild, standing. he feels the need to find shelter somewhere, but first he must see what can and cannot be consumed nearby. she walks toward a nearby pond to study her reflection. it showed long black hair and tanned skin, warm eyes and a curious face. they touched their face and tried to reach into the water, but was caught off guard as it started to move. he stood up continued her objective. once they were on the hill, he saw something green move faster than anything before. she started to try and follow behind, calling out in a tongue that felt correct. once they had turned a corner and lost the green, a tree root had tripped him. as she rubbed her head and leaned up, there was something shiny and sharp pointed at them. "who are you?! state your name!" the form was shaky and young, face mostly obscured. he ran a finger along the edge of the object lightly, ending by poking the tip. a small circle of something red spawned on the edge of her finger. a hand pulled the form back, beckoning the sharp to be reconciled. "zenix, it's okay. i think they aren't healthy right now..." as it was put away, the larger form kneeled down. "my name is garroth. what's yours?" he extended a hand to help them up. As he stood up with help, she asked rapid fire questions. "Dè thuirt thu? Chan urrainn dhomh do thuigsinn. Cò mise? Càite bheil mi? What did you say? I cannot understand you. Who am I? Where am I?" They both blanked. "Garroth, is that... is that the olden tongue Emmalyn was talking about?" Zenix asked after talking a step back, garroth turned to speak with his son. "I think so. We should go see her." Garroth turned back towards the  stranger, now standing up. he extended his hand towards stranger. "Can you understand this?" they hesitantly moved to take the hand. "O, a bheil thu airson gun lean mi thu? Oh, do you want me to follow you?" As the group walked through the town, he still had more questions. "Chan aithne dhomh fhathast ainm an àite seo. I still do not know the name of this place." she turned towards Zenix, "Dè an t-ainm a th 'ort? What is your name?" He stared since he didn't know what was being said, so Zenix nodded and pretended to understand. "Tha thu èibhinn. You are funny." As the towns scenery was being passed, and in return more questions asked, Garroth kept trying to respond as Zenix {originally i had typed vylad?? lol why} was trying to understand fragments. Once they reached their target building and brought the stranger in, they let go of his hand and started to look around. "O, dè tha seo? Pàipear le sgrathan? Oh, what is this? Paper with etchings?" He picked up a book with a red leather binding. "Emmalyn, we need your help!" Garroth called out into the space, Zenix was trying his best to damage control the never-ending curiosity of this newcomer. A blonde woman, who's hair was a mess, came from the basement. Their glasses were crooked and eyebags striking against her pale skin. "What do you want? I was almost done with my book." They rubbed her eyes as Garroth explained the situation, which was interrupted by zenix asking for help with the books. "O halò! Dè an t-ainm a th'ort? An tuig thu na tha mi ag ràdh? Tha cànan neònach aig an dithis seo. Oh hello! What is your name? Do you understand what I mean? These two have a strange language." Emmalyn paused as their eyes widened. "Oh Irena... Hold on, um--" They ran down the flight of stairs. Garroth decided to take a seat and motioned for Zenix to follow suit, to which the younger was hesitant. Emmalyn came rushing back up, papers and books threatening to fall out of her arms. The stranger put the item back and turned towards them. "Alright, let's do this..." She pushed their glasses up and spoke, "Is e m’ ainm Emmalyn, dè an t-ainm a th’ort? My name is Emmalyn, what is yours?" She extended a hand towards the stranger. With a joyed expression, she quickly responded. "O mo chreach, tha e air a bhith gu bràth o chuala mi rudeigin a thuig mi! Oh my, it has been forever since I have heard something I understood!" They shook Emmalyn's hand with fervor. Emmalyn was stuck in shock as he continued, Garroth was amused under his helm and Zenix was trying to hide a smile. "Gu fìrinneach, tha mi a’ smaoineachadh gur tusa an treas neach a choinnich mi a-riamh. Tha d’ ainm brèagha! Actually, I think you are the third person I have ever met. Your name is beautiful!" She continued with a smile as Emmalyn's things started to fall out of their arms, the shaking slowed into confusion with the next sentences. "'S e m' ainm... Huh. Gu dearbh, chan eil fhios agam! My name is... Huh. Of course, I do not know!" Boisterous laughter followed with a hand on their hip. Zenix laughed, to which Emmalyn whipped her head around. The stranger let go finally to continue inspecting the books. "So, um, they don't know their name... and--" Zenix interupted. "How can someone not know their name?! She's weirding me out! What was all of that anyway?" Garroth chimed in. "What he means is, 'thank you Emmalyn, could you please translate?' Right, Zenix?" The boy sat down, eyes to the floor in the general direction of Emmalyn. "Yes sir. Ma'am, could you please translate for us?" With a quick hmph they obliged, nodding into the sentence. "They don't know what you guys are saying, they've only met us so far..." She could feel the headache coming on and started searching through the papers that had fallen on the ground. "They think my name is pretty? That's so nice..." They whispered that to herself and continued. "So no name, what about where they came from?" Garroth started to help them pick up the papers. They looked back towards him, "Well, they didn't mention so I'm not sure. They might not know either." She pushed some hair behind their ear so she could read easier. "They also... uh, this language is so wordy... Oh yeah, they think our language is weird." Zenix moved towards the stranger again, seeing him pick up more books and mumbling in an almost forgotten language. As Garroth handed a leather-bound book back to the librarian, they brought a scroll out and leaned over the edge of the table. As she traced the letters and pronunciations they continued, "I think it would help if we tried to teach them something like language first." She turned her head towards the head guard. "how well can you teach?" zenix chimed in walking towards the adults, "he's good at teaching self defense!" with a coy smile under his hood. the stranger had left the books and went to stare out the door. emmalyn sighed, "well we need someone who has free time to teach them!" the door closed with a loud click. they all paused. after a some confusion the guards headed out of the library as emmalyn called for them to find someone to teach the new person. as they searched the town and asked people if they saw someone with long black hair and dirty clothing walk by, kiki was there to help. "i saw someone like that, actually! i tried talking with them but i didnt know what they were saying." she pointed towards one of the the empty housing units. "i asked if they were trying to find somewhere to stay and pointed towards the girls house." garroth thanked her as zenix started towards the house. "pardon me, have any of you seen someone out of town?" garroth asked as he knocked on the door. donna opened the door with an excited expression. "you didnt tell me there was somebody new!" behind her, the stranger was being cooed over by donna's roomate, molly. "Wow, cha do dh’ innis duine dhomh gu robh taigh làn de bhoireannaich bhrèagha ann! Taigh leanaban! Wow, no one told me that there was a house full of beautiful women! A babe house!" molly chimed in, "yeah, there hasnt been anyone knew since donna, and its been a couple months since she's moved here!" stranger had hugged her after she said this, to which the women returned with enthusiasm. "could we have them back? we need to find someone to teach them." garroth started, to which zenix added, "yeah! do you guys know anyone that can help?" donna lets them in while thinking, to which the stranger points at them and tries to talk with molly. "Is iad an dithis sin an fheadhainn a lorg mi. Tha mi airson fios a bhith aca air an ainmean, ach tha e doirbh dhomh an tuigsinn. Those two are the ones who had found me. I want to know their names, but it is hard for me to understand them." molly looks towards them in slight confusion. "A bheil thu gam thuigsinn? Is dòcha nach eil, ach is fhiach feuchainn. Do you understand me? Probably not, but it is worth a try." molly hugged her as they shrugged. "well, i think someone is coming into town tomorrow, so they should know something. probably, right?" donna asked garroth, to which he nodded. zenix had come over to molly and tried to take the strangers hand. "O, c'àit am bheil thu gam threòrachadh? Cha d'ith mi fathast, a' faireachdainn am pathadh. Oh, where are you leading me? I have not eaten yet, feeling thirsty." the guards waved goobye to the roomates and started towards the town center, zenix holding strangers hand so they dont lose him again. "garroth, what are we going to do? the only empty house is the old lords!" stranger tugged on his arm to inspect a flower, a bee came up to their face as they giggled and spoke to it. "Rud gòrach buidhe, tha thu càirdeil! Silly yellow thing, you are friendly!" garroth turned back when they reached the town square, after handing stranger a blowball. "well, i don't think we can bother brendan into making one quickly--" brendan was immediately behind him with this sentence, "what do you guys need? a house? i can help with that!" he gestured to himself as he puffed out his chest, to which another guard chimed in while nursing a brown bottle. "are y'sure you won't annoy her into wanting to leave?" brendan whipped around. "shut up dale! aren't you working on being sober?" with an accusing finger pointed towards him, dale shrugged. "today's cheat day, farmer boy." garroth spoke up, gesturing to both men. "would both of you be willing to help them with a house?" on their cue, the stranger spoke up. "O halò! Tha tòrr uaine ort, ach chan e thusa an duine a bha mi a’ sireadh na bu thràithe. Oh hello! You are wearing a lot of green, but you are not the person I was looking for earlier." with an enthusiastic wave, she turned towards dale and spoke fast. "Dè tha anns an rud donn sin? A bheil blas math air? A bheil e milis? Am faod mi blasad fhaighinn? What's in that brown thing? Does it taste good? Is it sweet? Can I taste it?" they pointed towards the bottle and made a drinking motion. dale laughed heartily and responded, "little lady, you wouldn't like this. it steals your soul!" he took a big gulp as the stranger looked in confusion, to which he laughed at. "haha dale, very funny. surprised it hasn't stolen your soul yet..." brendan muttered to himself. "anyway, garroth, yeah i can work on the house. i'll just need some supplies like wood, nails, and a third set of hands if we want to get this done by tonight." garroth thought about this, nodding. "i can try to find someone, and if i cannot i will help." zenix stared. "and zenix will help as well." a flurry of complaints followed as brendan laughed. he walked towards the stranger, "so, what kind of house would you like, miss?" gesturing wildly with each addition he spoke, "Uill, chan urrainn dhomh a thuigsinn dè tha thu ag ràdh. Ach bhruidhinn an nighean roimhe agus thuig mi i!Is e Emmalyn an t-ainm a th’ oirre! Am b’ urrainn dhut mo thoirt air ais thuice? Bha i gu math cuideachail agus snog. Well, I can't understand what you are saying. But the girl spoke before and I understood her! Her name is Emmalyn! Could you take me back to her? She was very helpful and nice." he understood the librarians name. "oh, emma? yeah, i can take you to her!" he held her hand as they stood. "Cuideachd, a bheil fios agad càite a bheil barrachd dhiubh sin? Is toil leam iad gu mòr. Also, do you know where more of these are? I like them a lot." they tapped the blowball as some seeds came loose, to which brendan saw and picked up another. "Tapadh leat gu dearbh! Tha thu air aon den fheadhainn as fheàrr leam. Thank you so much! You are one of my favorites."

this one i wanted to use more gaelic translations
Bright light. It was almost blinding, being above their head. She tried to block it with her hand as she sat up. There was green and brown everywhere. One part moved quicker than the rest, and just like that it was gone. Strange.
He stood up, dusting the dirt from his clothing. They decided to follow the green. She wandered aimlessly, hoping it didn't go too far away. He heard something familiar and turned to his right. There was a mass wearing gray and gold. Shiny. It pulled something that gleamed with the same intensity from its side. It started making more noises. It was quite loud.
It paused, seeming to give them a second to respond. She didn't know what it was saying, so she tried to mimic it. It got upset and another gray thing came up and held it back. This one had a kinder cadence. He mimicked again and it exhaled. It motioned as it walked, the gold one staring as they followed.
The group was led to a wooden building filled with books, and a grumpy purple and yellow being by a desk. It sounded tired. She wondered around, picking up random books. He couldn't understand anything until he found a leather-back book. They started reading out loud and everyone stared at them. What? This book was intelligible while the others weren't, reading out loud brought a sense of comfort.
The purple one got closer, hesitantly, and asked brokenly, "Can you understand me?" She nodded her head and replied, "Yes! I can! What were you speaking before? It sounded strange." Purple looked stunned. They waved their hand in front of its face and asked "Hello? Earth to purple?"
"An tuig thu mi?" "Can you understand me?" "Seadh, is urrainn dhomh! Dè bha thu a' bruidhinn roimhe? Bha e neònach." "Yes, I can! What were you speaking before? It sounded strange." "Halò? Talamh gu Purpaidh?" "Hello? Earth to Purple?"
"A bheil thu eòlach air Hyria?" "Do you know Hyria?" "Tha coltas gu bheil e eòlach, ach gu mì-fhortanach chan eil. Am bu chòir dhomh?" "It sounds familiar, but sadly no. Should I?" "An cuala tu co-dhiù mu Irena?" "Have you at least heard of Irena?" "A-rithist, chan eil. tha mi duilich... Dè an t-ainm a bh' ort a-rithist?" "Again, no. I'm sorry... What was your name again?" " 'S e Emmalyn an t-ainm a tha orm, agus tha an dithis seo air co-dhùnadh gum bi thu a' fuireach còmhla rium gus am bi taigh saor ann." "My name is Emmalyn, and these two have decided you'll be living with me until there's a free house." “Uill tha e math coinneachadh riut Emmalyn. Chan eil fhios agam m’ ainm, ach tha mi cinnteach gun lorg e mi. Sìth leat, a charaid!" "Well it's nice to meet you Emmalyn. I don't know my name, but I'm sure it will find me. Peace be with you, friend!" "O, dhìochuimhnich mi faighneachd. A bheil feum aig an taigh ùr air cuideachadh ga thogail?Tha mo ghàirdeanan nas làidire na tha iad a’ coimhead!" "Oh, I forgot to ask. Does the new house need help being built? My arms are stronger than they look!" “Thuirt iad gum faodadh iad an-còmhnaidh seata làmhan a bharrachd a chleachdadh.” "They said they could always use an extra set of hands." "Foirfe! Is dòcha gu feum mi rudeigin nas freagarraiche airson saothair.A bheil dad agad ri shaoradh, Emmalyn?" "Perfect! I might need something more fitting for labor. Do you have anything to spare, Emmalyn?" "'S dòcha. Leig dhomh coimhead anns a' chlòsaid agamsa." "Maybe. Let me look in my closet." "Tapadh leat gu caoimhneil! Cuideachd, dè a th' ann an 'closet'? An e facal eile a th' ann mar dreasair?" "Thank you kindly! Also, what is a 'closet?' Is it another word like dresser?"

fifteen years of high priest zane missing. the obsidian father left without a trace after leaving for a small village in the woods. what was its name? it didn’t matter, as o’khasian guards and fans would stalk the town from the woods. word from the path was that an elf {or fairy, depended on who you were talking with} was living there and would block their line of sight with trees, and that the town was practically devoid of life.

i’m gonna post some of the rough drafts i have :)
she didn't know what came first, conscious thought or the ability to see. for all she knew, they happened simultaneously. her eyesight was filled to the brim with trees. she noted that she could identify things like trees and nature. she tried to stand up, which was difficult when you recently gain bodily autonomy. she thought she saw something green moving in the distance, and so in a confused stupor followed. they eventually came upon something in dark colors. she tried to test her vocal cords to see if she could commune, when she registered she was on the ground with something gray to their throat. she heard gray make a noise, incomprehensible to her new ears, and a warm gray looking being came over. the warm one put a shoulder on the other and offered her a hand. when she touched its hand she could understand what it was saying. 'hello, im garroth. sorry about zenix, hes always been a bit jumpy. whats your name?' as she stood there, trying to collect her thoughts, the gray thing she learned was named zenix started to whine about having an unknown in the forest and how they could be a threat and wanting to go out and see if there were more. the warm gray one, garroth, dispelled these concerns and turned back towards our girl. she hadnt learned how to use her vocal cords to make comprehensible sentences, so she made a couple noises to see if they fit her. 'a... f... mow.' she reiterated this with her arms hitting her sides. 'aphmau.' 'great to meet you, aphmau. lets get you into town, yeah?' garroth led the trio back into the place with stone structures that aphmau would learn to be called buildings, and this many would be called a town.

conlan, the eldest child of the late lord, used his title to pause dante’s trip by a day to sit and chat. he revealed he knew what was going on and dante was furious, grabbing his collar he demanded to know why he didn’t say anything. but conlan reflects the question back onto him. the guards came in and forcibly removed dante. conlan told them to stop and handed a letter to him and instructed to open it at the lodging, kissed his hand goodbye, and wished for safe travels. dante wanted to brush the feeling on his hand off as it started to linger.
