Bloom From The Depths🪷
Able to share my @kairizine fic where our KH girls get to go on a mini adventure! Thank you so much again for having me! Was a dream come true to write for Kairi again 🥺💖
Summary: Kairi is called by Leon and Co to investigate a locked file addressed to her within the main-hub of the cavern of remembrance. Namine and Aqua join Kairi on her journey to unlock her memories with a little help from some unexpected friends. While facing her fears Kairi is reunited with those she misses most.
A magical journey through the language of flowers and their deep connection to hearts connected by the dearest of memories.
Written for @kairizine2023 featuring gorgeous spot art by @mellekist!
From the depths of Radiant Garden, a blight remained, sprawling with cavernous pathways and crumbling cliffsides teeming with Heartless. Even the Restoration Committee’s valiant efforts were not enough to repair the scars left by the Dark Seeker’s reign. One of these blights, the Cavern of Remembrance, beckoned a new visitor: a Princess of Heart.
Kairi didn’t think she would return to her home world so soon. The past year she spent asleep had been long enough. Now was the time for action—Sora was still missing. The plan was to train hard until she could join Riku on his search. However, a message from Leon changed the tide.
Kairi, it’s been a while. Cid found something: a file addressed to you. It’s attached to a code we can’t crack, not without your help. Ansem says you’ll need to visit this place called the Cavern of Remembrance. It’s still swarming with Heartless, but I know you’ll be fine. 
You up for an adventure?
Excitement flooded her veins. It was the perfect vacation from training. Maybe there was more information locked within the garden’s depths that could help Sora!
Bits and pieces remained of the legend of the Cavern of Remembrance. As a child, someone had told Kairi that it was a place that twisted and formed to suit the purpose of the visitor. Memories, hearts, and wishes worked their magic to weave together a place of reminiscence for the denizens of times past. A part of Kairi felt this place housed more memories and fading emotions than met the eye. There was something there she had to find.
Two companions joined Kairi on this unexpected quest. Aqua had long been itching for some adventure, and Naminé was roped in due to her unique abilities and connection to Kairi’s memories. Breathless and hearts racing, the trio made short work of the darkness that clung to every pipe, cliffside, and waterway. Naminé acted as an excellent guide while Aqua and Kairi cleared the pathway ridden with Heartless in every nook and cranny.
The trio soon found themselves within the depths of the abyss. In between indigo crags of rock and pipes of searing hot steam was a long hallway, reminiscent of The World That Never Was. Kairi stood in the middle of the pure white hall, scattered with the remains of fading Nobodies and the glistening hearts of felled Heartless. A large set of white doors barred their path forward. Her Keyblade shimmered into the air, leaving bright stars in its wake as she walked through them. 
Thirteen doors teetered on the edge of nothing—floating above a circular pathway backed by rushing water. In the middle of the circle was a platform, glistening with the light of electrical wires that led up to a series of computer screens. A technological garden of memory and wonder. Its hollow nature, bereft of heart, sent a chill down Kairi’s spine just as the awe set in.
Kairi placed her hand on the terminal.
“It’s strange how similar it looks to The World That Never Was.” Naminé came to her side with an air of curiosity. A ghost of a memory tugged on Kairi’s heart. Once, she had been trapped in a room just like this one.
“Thanks, Naminé—for breaking me out back then.”
“You broke free all on your own. I just provided the door.” Naminé smiled, then set to work scouring the database. Kairi was delighted to see her thriving in her element.
“You’ve both been through a lot, and have come so far. I’m impressed how quickly you both took out all those Heartless!” Aqua said, bounding up behind Kairi and settling beside her. Her eyes shone as she looked expectantly at the computer screens. “What do we do next?”
Naminé drew in her shoulders. “It needs a connection—a memory from your past in Radiant Garden, Kairi. Then, I can use it to connect you to whatever data is inside that locked message.”
Kairi bit her lip. “I’m sorry. Those days are hazy for me.”
She recalled her connections, wishes, and dreams from childhood as snapshots. Glimpses of moments with her grandmother, a moment in a garden of flowers, and a whisper of a story late at night—that was all.  
“Maybe you could use my memories of when we met to bring them to the surface.” Aqua put a hand on her chest and looked to Naminé for confirmation.
“That could work! Then please, think back on that time!” Naminé gleefully touched the tips of her fingers together. She turned to Kairi. “Kairi, all you need to do is listen to the melody of Aqua’s heart. Find that resonating connection and focus on it. After that, just step through that door over there. I’ll use it to connect you.” Naminé pointed towards the door with a shimmering Kingdom Key on the front.
Kairi furrowed her brow. “Aqua, what about that memory tugs at you the most?”
“The flowers you gave me. One was a pansy, I think? I thought it was really cute.” Aqua stifled a chuckle. A familiar light shone in her eyes—it drew Kairi straight to the connection she sought. With the melody tugging on her heart, the princess stepped through the door and into the unknown.
****
The space rippled and filled with light, numbing her senses until the scent of dew and freshly cut flowers filled the air. Kairi’s eyes fluttered open to the memory of herself as a young girl, no older than four, with a small bouquet of flowers in her hands. Kneeling before her was Aqua, who hadn’t seemed to age a day since then. Her mentor smiled gently at little Kairi, and gingerly took the flowers with a word of thanks.
“Kairi!” A soft, melodious voice tugged at the edges of her heart. Who was it?
Little Kairi turned from Aqua to call out to the faded figure in the distance until Aqua gently coaxed the girl’s attention back to her. Gingerly, she tapped little Kairi’s necklace, leaving a burst of light in her wake.
Tumblr media
“One day, when you’re in trouble—the light within you will lead you to the light of another. Someone to keep you safe.”
What a kind and warm memory, one that shone like sea glass on the shore. The chains in her memory relinked, twisting and twirling in joy as they nestled in her heart.
“The light has always found a way to guide me and keep me safe.” Kairi breathlessly clutched her necklace, sensing the lingering whisper of the wish. The world shifted in a veil of light, transporting her to another time, another place—one all too familiar.
****
A labyrinthic library formed. The musty scent of old and dusty tomes overwhelmed Kairi with a rush of nostalgia. It was the place from her memories, one that shone vividly in the depths of her heart.
A book will guide you to what you seek. A voice slipped into her mind like a beloved lullaby. Kairi glanced around, sensing no other presence. Curious, she continued to explore the space from her memories.
A soft glow flickered within a nook nearby, guiding her to a book embossed with a pansy flower. Delicate fingers cracked open the tome to see a lone pressed purple and yellow flower peeking out from its pages.
“A pansy, it means ‘thinking of you…’” Kairi mused.
The space shifted, transporting her again to another memory. This time, Sora and Riku’s young sun-kissed grins greeted her, their arms filled with pansy flowers.
“Back then I was homesick for a place I didn’t remember.”
“And we cheered you up.”
With a sharp intake of breath, she turned. Riku stood before her, looking the same as he did when he’d left. “Are you…real?”
“Just his leftover worries and thoughts. You’ve been worried, haven’t you? About being away from us. But you shouldn’t be. Your memories of us are so important that they keep you going when you’re lost, right? You know you’re never too far away. Our hearts are always connected.”
Kairi held back tears. “You always know what to say. Thank you, Riku.”
Riku’s smile faded into the abyss of the library. In her hands was a new book. Where gold once embossed the front, now only the outline of small flowers remained. Gingerly, Kairi cracked open its pages.
A single flower was neatly nestled between water-stained pages, pure white and so delicate she feared it would break. A diphylleia. Kairi couldn’t remember who taught her the name.
The meaning echoed across the chambers of her heart.
“Happiness.”
Kairi!
A soundless voice gripped her heart as a vast expanse of sea and sky spilled out before her. At her feet, lotus floated to the surface, their petals unfurling as if they were reaching for the sunlight. The visage of the final world shimmered into being, as did the fading form of a boy she dearly missed.
“Sora!”
The vibration of his heart resonated deep within her own. Neither data nor sleep was a barrier to an unbreakable connection. Sora placed something in her hands, smiling as he faded into the never-ending sky. In his wake, he left a reminder, an oath—her charm.
“I’m always with you. Right, Sora?” Kairi held the charm close, sensing her heart’s resonance with those she loved most.
So, you found your light.
Kairi turned, stumbling against the lotus dancing at her feet. Each white blossom radiated the warmth of pure light.
****
Standing in the midst of sea, flowers, and sky was an old woman, her cheeks round with a smile and dusted pink. She wore the same shawl Kairi remembered from days spent listening to her stories in the library. Kairi sought out a vibration, a melody resounding from the woman’s heart—but it was barely a whisper.
Data. A memory recorded long ago and leftover from a strong heart. Kairi stepped forward. “Grandma?”
“In a sense, but you know that.” Grandma beamed.
Kairi ran to envelop the woman in a warm embrace. Tears streamed down her face as memories rose to the surface against the darkness. Memories of loss, guilt, and the distinct fear of never returning “home.”
 “I miss you. I’m sorry that I forgot.” Kairi sniffled.
“But you didn’t forget, dear. Your heart remembers everything your mind forgot. Good memories are hard to find, and pain sometimes covers up what we want to treasure most. Try not to hold so dearly onto the past that it halts your future. Any memories you might have lost have allowed you to continue forward with renewed strength.” Grandma gently rubbed a tear from Kairi’s eye. Stars danced in the woman’s eyes as she admired how far the girl had come. 
“I want to find you! I want to bring you all home .”
“All in due time, my dear. I programmed the data to respond to what your heart needs most. To help you move forward. Now, what has been troubling you?”
A breath shakily escaped Kairi’s chest. “My memories—if I just remembered, then maybe we’d all be able to be together again.”
“Your memories are deep inside you, waiting for the right moment.” Kairi’s grandmother brushed a strand of hair away from the girl’s tear-stained face. The woman pressed her forehead to Kairi’s and closed her eyes to whisper a familiar oath. “Wherever you go, we’re always with you. Never forget, take heart, and move forward.”
Light swallowed the princess whole once again as the warmth of her grandmother faded. When Kairi awoke, two concerned faces greeted her.
“Kairi! I’m so glad you’re awake! You just came back in a daze and nothing I did would get through to you.” Naminé grasped Kairi’s hands and held back tears.
“Thank goodness.” Aqua breathed a sigh of relief as she bent down to help Kairi to her feet. She wore a bewildered expression as she gently plucked a purple flower from behind Kairi’s ear.
“An azalea?” Naminé said.
Kairi took the flower and rubbed its stem between her fingers. “‘Please take care of yourself.’ That’s what the message was. Though my heart may be estranged from those I love, they’re never too far. They’re all right here inside me—urging me to keep moving forward.”
You’ve faced your fate well.
Tumblr media
A heart song echoed in her chest. The remnant of a memory tugged on her lingering connection. Kairi reached for it.
Like a lotus, stretch towards the light. Let your heart bloom even in the deepest darkness, beautiful and strong like I know you are.
Notes:
Thank you so much for reading! It was amazing being a part of Kairi Zine Vol 2 Destiny’s Embrace. Still pinching myself that I actually got to write for it and work with the wonderful @mellekist. You can find her gorgeous spot art for the zine here! And leftover sales are still open as of 10/6 so be sure to snag a digital copy if you’re wanting more Kairi goodness or merch! I hope you enjoyed this little story focusing on Kairi’s feelings about her memories and missing those she loves most. I loved writing it! Some notes about the chosen flowers below! I really had fun picking which flowers to focus on. These are notes I made during the planning phase and really are just fun extra notes on the themes I wanted to explore. Hope you enjoy this inside look! ***** Main themes I chose were estranged love (lotus), cherished memory (please take care of yourself for me/Azalea) connection (pansy/thinking of you), and overcoming guilt associated with Kairi being estranged from those she loves. The lotus while meaning estranged love-also refers to the loss of memory for “rebirth” and becoming stronger. Through multiple “rebirths” darkness is removed and the purest light is formed. Loss of memory, sharing of her heart with Sora and regaining connections (being closer with Naminé and Aqua) has resulted in many “rebiths” for Kairi. As she exits the data she has changed a bit and had another rebirth. She’s no longer feeling estranged from those she loves, she was reminded they’re always with her. For the flowe she sees when being “reunited” with Sora I played with the meaning of Show my true self for Diphylleia. The flower is called a skeleton flower for it becomes translucent in the rain. A nod at Sora’s fading form at the final world. For the last theme, Kairi reiterates that part of what makes her whole is her connections to her friends—her true self has been shaped by her connections and she is grateful to carry them with her always. I wanted to touch on how Kairi is missing those she’s estranged from and having guilt that she’s not with them—through memories or physically. Kairi also feels guilt for not fully remembering her days in Radiant Garden. She feels they must be important memories, there is an imprint on her heart. Kairi’s important connections remind her that she has nothing to feel guilty about. She is with them, always. Although she’s estranged from those she loves most, those cherished memories and connections (regardless of how strong) are what makes her whole, even if she doesn’t fully remember them. She’s become so strong and taken charge of her fate. There are things out of her control (losing Sora, Riku traveling alone, being separated from her grandma, not having access to all her memories) but what she does have control of is how she faces it—and she’s faced it well. Thank you so much for reading!

Playlist name: “Bryan/Yuta - the story”
Alright this sent me down a rabbit hole. I decided to do their condensed storyline up until now, Yuta POV, with some shippy angling. So this is broken into acts. No individuals links, i was too lazy. Full playlist here, Chronological, don’t shuffle. I did more artist repeats than I’d like, but this ended up having a specific vibe
Prologue
1. My Hero - Paramore. For the ‘I have a burned dvd of matches I used to watch in my room’ days. Cover version because Yuta self-proclaims he loves the band.
Act I: the courting/glory days
2. Orange Crush - R.E.M. Puns mostly intended. Yuta’s with orange and best friends but think timeline of that post-match segment and him watching Bryan. Finally being around his idol, crushing.
3. Crush - Sleigh Bells. Which eventually leads to his match with Bryan. I got a crush (i gotta crush you). Fighting your idol/crush.
4. Free to Decide - The Cranberries join bcc? Stay with best friends? Yuta is free to decide. Also touches on mental health stuff that he’s been candid about in the past.
5. True Seekers - Sleigh Bells: Joins the bcc, possibilities endless. And he’s got a lot of feelings.
6. Gimme Sympathy - Metric. Things are good right now. Yuta still has a lot of feelings.
7. Comeback Kid - Sleigh Bells: Super juniors and after. Bryan starts taking an interest in Danny.
Act III: the trouble in paradise/breakup period
8. A Little Respect - Wheatus (cover) - Yuta just wants Bryan’s respect. Maybe a little more.
9. Never Say Die - CHRVCHES. Things start breaking down, but Yuta doesn’t wanna give up yet.
10. Cool on your island - Tori Amos. Yuta loses the title, Bryan supports Danny, Yuta is hurt
11. One More Try - George Michael. Yuta is very in his feelings about his mentor/hero choosing someone else, confronts him, they have a sit down
12. I miss you -Blink-182. Bryan’s full into his MJF stuff. Yuta is quietly missing him. Also he used the song recently in a story and I got excited.
Act III: Reunion
13 & 14 Empty Threat - CHRVCHES and The Riot’s gone - Santigold - Bryan comes back, Yuta’s had enough time to get over it all. Bryan is yelling on TV that he loves him even if he’s a little shit. Things feel better than ever
15. Ultraviolence - Lana Del Rey. Yuta missed Bryan’s negative motivation tactics. Pre-double or nothing slap.
16. Perfect Day - Lou Reed. The hike. ❤️
17. Living Legend - Lana Del Rey. Yuta processes Bryan’s announcement
18. Stand by your man - Tammy Wynette. Yuta is in sheer protective/possessive mode after Bryan’s injury. “My man.” He will stand by his man.

Welcome to my place, any similarities with an asylum are pure coincidence.

I'm Miss Nobody, a 31 years old person who loves creating, sharing and read about original characters, with a strong preference for fan characters. English is not my first language and I am far from having a perfect grammar, I feel like this is important information considering that I write a lot about my characters. I consider myself a non-binary person and I feel comfortable with any pronouns.
⚠️ This blog may contain mature content occasionally and while never visually explicit I still feel like this deserves a warning, especially if you don't like cussing, I cuss a lot! Proceed with caution, you have been warned.⚠️
✔ Things I like ✔
❥ Art ❥ Anime ❥ TV shows ❥ Music ❥ Wajas ❥ Sharks and orcas
✪ Fandoms ✪
They are too many to list but I'm listing the main ones here, no order of preference.
➤ Attack On Titan* ➤ Naruto* ➤ Spy x Family ➤ Chainsaw Man ➤ Jujutsu Kaisen ➤ Pokémon ➤ Berserk (Manga only) ➤ The Walking Dead ➤ Game Of Thrones ➤ MCU ➤ The Lion King* * = Main obsessions.
♥ My ships ♥
I enjoy shipping a lot and think it is an important part of my blog as I reblog these a lot, before following, please, check this list, I don't have time for drama and I won't start any over ships I don't like either, I'm here to have fun.

✎ My characters ✎
I have lots of original characters, from original stories to fandoms, all of my humanoids are fan characters, while all of my ferals are from my original story called "Cursed Scars".
I've listed most of my characters on this page and each one of them has a hashtag on my blog where you can see and find out more about each individual character of mine, I tried my best to make it easy to navigate!
────────⋅✩✩✩☾☽✩✩✩⋅────────
Important notes:
• No DNI as I find these very useless, at most they will make you an easy target for suspicious people.
• I do not answer private messages, these make me extremely uncomfortable as I suffer from social anxiety.
• I don't draw often as drawing makes my mental health decline a lot, I don't consider myself an artist, I draw very occasionally only.
• Some of my fan fics and original stories have very sensitive topics, it does NOT mean that I am okay or support any of these in real life, I'm not a murderer for writing about a murderer.
• I don't support or tolerate any kind of bullying or harassment over fictional ships, I couldn't care less if you ship the opposite of what I ship, you are free to and no one should be treated like shit for that, I have zero tolerance for this kind of behavior and I'd probably kick your face if I could. I ship Levihan but I ain't getting mad at Eruri, it's that simple, thank you.
────────⋅✩✩✩☾☽✩✩✩⋅────────
Working on a page for my characters, I shall edit this post to add the link to it once I am done.

____________________________________________________
Seven weeks earlier.
Yeliana wasn't a stranger to these events, she'd attended several of them hence why she had grown accustomed to the false narrative that everyone was purely friendly with one another when it was all a mere act - she kept up as much as she could, conversing with anyone and everyone that came her way until she felt slightly suffocated which lead to her sneaking out to the balcony to get some fresh air, and it appears she wasn't the only one who had thought of it.
There, in front of her - stood an elegantly dressed Sergio Ramos.
She was about to leave when Sergio turned around, and for a second they looked at one another before he spoke up, " You're Yeliana? "
" You know who I am? " Yeliana asks with a confused look, it wasn't intended to sound strange, yet normally football players aren't the kind of audience to recognize her.
" Of course I do, my niece loves your songs " Sergio chuckles, " And to be fair, I also got addicted "
She tentatively walks up and stands next to him, " Ah, well that's lovely to know " she laughs.
They fell silent for a brief moment before Sergio looks at her, " You hate these parties, I guess "
Yeliana nods with a laugh, " it's all a bunch of fake people talking to each other and while I don't take my chances for granted, it's quite exhausting to talk and talk and talk when all I want is to sing, does that make sense? "
Sergio smiles, " It does, it's how I feel about football "
The pair spent the night out, away from the noise; talking about everything and nothing, from their childhood, to their hopes and dreams when it came to their careers to everything and nothing - until Sergio ends the night by asking her, " would you like to join me for dinner sometime? "
Yeliana smiles, " Why not? "

Penny drags Juniper to the Ravenclaw quidditch tryouts as a distraction from Ben's disapperance when Penny and someone else makes a suggestion for Juniper to try for the quidditch team.
Warnings: description of injury, mild panic attack from phobia
The northern weather didn't want to hold up in this continuous downpour. A fog lingered over the castle grounds refusing to leave and causing minor delays.
Penny dragged Juniper out one weekend to the quidditch pitch. She knew that Penny had something planned but didn't expect this. It temporarily helped distract them from their focus on Ben, who had been missing for over two weeks at this point.
"What's going on, Penny?"
"We're going to watch the quidditch tryouts. Today is Ravenclaw's turn." Penny responded eagerly.
Juniper furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "Um...but why Ravenclaw? Why no Hufflepuff? That's your house."
"I know but Skye Parkin from the legendary Parkin family is trying out today!" Penny grabbed Juniper's out of excitement and squealed.
"Who's she?" Juniper looked at her with more puzzlement.
Penny's jaw dropped like Juniper had said something as audacious as Rita Skeeter's articles.
"You don't know...who Skye Parkin is?" Still looking bewildered.
"Should I?"
"Yes, Juniper! You share the same dorm with her for Merlin's sake!" The Hufflepuff passionately exclaimed. Juniper recalled her dorm mates, Tulip Karasu and Badeea Ali. Her mind was drawing a blank at the other girl.
"Oh."
"Oh, what?" Penny turned to Juniper, confused. "Don't you talk to the other girls in your dorm."
It clicked in her head that Skye must be the other girl she doesn't remember, and she does recall that she seemed to be somewhat standoffish.
"A wee bit to Tulip and Badeea, but no really. I mostly talk to Rowan whenever we're in the dorms." Juniper shrugged, not that she minded. "So how'd you ken about Skye Parkin? You don't strike me as a massive quidditch fan."
"I was surprised you weren't a Scot, but my family lived in Wigtown for a while. I heard about the Parkins, who are legends there. Their family has been playing for the Wigtown Wanderers. Mum took me and my sister to our first quidditch match, where we watched them play, and so I started following them." The Hufflepuff explained.
It surprised Juniper that Penny had lived in Scotland for a while, and she would have never guessed based on her English accent.
As they drew closer to the pitch, Andre Egwu caught up with them.
"Hey, Juniper! Penny." Andre acknowledged the Hufflepuff before turning his attention to Juniper. "Are you here for the tryouts?"
"Yeah."
"Great! What position are you playing for?"
"Position?"
"Are you not here to try out for the Ravenclaw quidditch team?" Andre looked at his fellow Ravenclaw, confused.
Juniper shook her head profusely. "No, I'm here to watch it with Penny. She invited me to come along."
"Yes, I did. I'm here to watch Skye Parkin." She said excitedly. "Are you doing the tryouts, Andre?"
"Anything really. I enjoy quidditch, all of it. Though secretly, I'm hoping I get either keeper or seeker position." Andre walked with them to the desk outside the changing rooms. "You're good at flying, Juniper. Why aren't you trying out for the team?"
"I don't ken. I would nae call myself amazing. I enjoy flying, but I only ken the basics of quidditch." She fiddled with her fingers.
"Why don't you just it a try, Juniper?" Penny suggested, her smile beaming brightly. "What's the worst that can happen?"
Ending up in the hospital wing, Juniper grimly thought. While the idea of a high-speed chase might seem exciting, it's important to consider the potential risks. The thought of ending up in the hospital makes her stomach churn.
"I don't know guys..."
"Penny's right, just try it and if it isn't your thing then it's not."
"Besides, it could help you hunt for the cursed vaults." The Hufflepuff pointed out. Juniper could build stamina, and Merlin knows that her arms are made of noodles.
Juniper sighed. "I'll try it out but yous are going to have to give me an intense five-minute crash course."
An intense crash course she received indeed. Juniper found she was more confused with the new knowledge gained than ever before, but there was little more she could do. She signed up with Andre for the seeker position as it was the most appealing. Juniper was slightly nervous that she would make an absolute fool of herself; she could feel her breakfast from earlier threatening to unleash itself.
She followed Andre, changed into the gear provided, and grabbed the school's cleansweep broom they supply if a student didn't have or couldn't afford it.
The group mixed with old and new members was enough to split into two separate teams. They were to play a few rounds depending on how long the games go.
"Greetings, everyone. Welcome to the Ravenclaw tryouts. I am Orion Amari, your new captain for the quidditch team." An older student in blue and bronze quidditch robes with his shoulder-length curly hair tied back with loose strands hanging in his face where a few stubbles followed his jawline. "It's time to create a new team as another year has gone by. The goal is to create harmony within the new team by balancing the perspectives of both new and experienced members."
The captain went on; Juniper noticed he looked much older than most students. Orion went on and introduced the first test; broom balancing.
The newcomers were slightly bewildered, but the returning players were not surprised. Based on what Penny and Andre had explained, Orion Amari was made captain for this year and was known to be a combination of odd and intriguing. The test was more challenging than it looked. Some were wobbling while others were hopping. Someone even fell off and failed to move to the next round. Juniper struggled, watching the others until she started focusing on herself. The remaining students passed and could go on to round two, the actual practice.
They were split into two teams. Juniper found herself on the same team as the girl with the blue-dyed hair from her dorm room. She must be Skye Parkin, the one Penny has been raving about. The two teams got ready as Madam Hooch prepared to release the balls. Juniper prepared herself, ready to catch the golden glint to follow. She was up against Andre, so she didn't like her odds.
"Welcome to the Ravenclaw tryouts, where promising novices and returning players take their shot at being part of the Ravenclaw team." Juniper glanced up at the commentator tower. She squinted and saw a blonde boy with a microphone. "Chances are that only 42.8% of them will actually make the team."
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed another blonde person. Penny was in the Ravenclaw stands with the other spectators. Juniper glanced around and saw that that was the only stand filled.
"Good luck, everyone, and may the best team win." Madam Hooch blew her whistle as the box opened. She noticed a flash of gold before it quickly flew away.
Juniper felt the blood rush to her head as she instinctively dived down. The snitch was down near the Gryffindor stands like it was blending with the gold colours.
A broom handle approached next to her; Andre was catching up close, observing her movements. She seemed unable to hear anything except the loud sound of wind rushing past her ears. The Ravenclaw figured it was best to ignore Andre and keep her focus on the goal.
The snitch weaved through the wooden stand structure in a zig-zag, like it was teasing them. Andre followed the movements precisely, but Juniper chose to remain outside, avoiding their brooms from clashing, and suddenly went snitch and went up.
She heard a clack before almost flying off her broom. An audible gasp as they quickly gripped their brooms for dear life. She and Andre had the same idea of flying upwards and didn't notice the other nearby.
"Great, now the snitch is gone." Andre muttered.
"It'll come up." Juniper optimistically reasoned.
"Watch out!"
A bludger came spinning their way. The two novice seekers scattered in opposing directions. She flew high but not high enough to lose the game in the fog. Juniper wished that the sun was out to use its beam to spotlight the snitch. It would make it much easier and bring a win to her team. The others were in the lead by twenty points already.
Penny cheered loudly as Skye Parkin scored a goal. Her team was a little closer to beating, but not how Juniper liked it. While staring, Juniper had to do a double take at the hoops.
The snitch! And she wasn't the only one to notice.
Juniper gripped her broom tightly and headed quickly as the cleansweep could. As she drew closer, the keeper attempted to block her efforts to allow Andre to capture the snitch. It seemed that Skye had noticed the situation and attempted to divert the keeper's attention by scoring another goal with the quaffle.
Juniper was determined that she wouldn't allow that, and to her luck, the snitch moved closer, barely behind the keeper. The keeper continued to block her while simultaneously trying to focus on Skye. Still, just as the snitch was about to fly away, Juniper swung her arm narrowly, avoiding the keeper's ear and grabbing the snitch.
The keeper looked shocked while Juniper apologetically smiled. Her heart pumped so loudly she thought it was going to burst.
"Sorry, I hope I did nae hurt you."
"Yeah, no you didn't." He said.
Her team cheered for their first victory. Andre flew next to her.
"Well played for a complete novice." Andre reached out his hand as Juniper firmly shook back.
"It's probably just beginner's luck." Juniper shrugged. The other teammates patted her back in congratulations before Orion shuffled the teams about. She was out this round, sitting on the sidelines. The older seeker played hard, twisting his broom in ways that Juniper could never, inevitably causing Andre to lose.
Several rounds later, Juniper's first win was really just beginner's luck. She slowly began to lose to Andre and the other more experienced seekers, particularly to an arrogant sixth-year named Roan Smith. Too many close calls, and she had to rely on the chasers to score enough to make for the loss. It didn't help to see their visible frustration and dagger-like stares.
In the last round, Juniper was utterly disheartened. Just hours ago, she thought she would be okay with a loss. Instead, a fiery competitive side came out. She hated being this useless to her team.
The novice seeker was onto the snitch the moment it was released. Fury controlled her flying; she weaved narrowly, avoiding bumping into the other players. Andre even backed off slightly due to her unpredictable and reckless flight.
Juniper reached out, she could feel her fingertips touch, but the cleansweep wasn't fast enough. It was risky, but Juniper, at this point, didn't care. She wanted another win. She wanted the thrill. The adrenaline rush.
Tumblr media
She pulled herself forward on her broom in one motion before thrusting her torso out off the broom. Her fingers wrapped around the flittering snitch, but she lost her balance.
In a blur, she found herself on the ground. Pain shoots up through her legs first. Then came falling flat on her face. She quickly confirmed that the snitch was in her hand and laughed. The Ravenclaw witch held it up.
"In a reckless manoeuvre, Moss caught the snitch in a comeback from her first victory, getting a final win for her team." The commentator's voice echoed throughout the pitch. Juniper could hear Penny's cheer being the oldest of them all.
Juniper tried to stand up but was forced down by the searing pain in her right ankle. Madam Hooch and the Ravenclaw Captain rushed to her.
"You need to go to the hospital wing." Madam Hooch examined her leg. "You likely sprained your ankle."
"I'll help Madam Hooch!" Penny came in rushing, following behind Andre with a concerned look.
"It's fine, guys," Juniper assured, her voice not as convincing as she had hoped. Just earlier, she was worried about ending up in the hospital wing. "I'll go with Penny."
Penny helped her up and took her to the hospital wing. The colour drained from her face once they were outside. That antiseptic smell was strong near her making her feel queasy.
"I'm fine, Penny. You can leave me here."
"No, Juniper." Penny insisted. "You hurt your ankle badly; my heart almost stopped when I saw you fall. Madam Pomfrey can heal you quickly."
"Can't you brew a wiggenweld potion?" Juniper winced as she accidentally put too much weight on her injured ankle.
"I can only do so much for you, Juniper," Penny argued back, remaining calm. "Besides, Madam Pomfrey is a trained healer and can heal it much faster."
"It's not Madam Pomfrey that is the problem." The Ravenclaw whimpered at the throbbing pain. On top of that, she felt sick to her stomach. "I don't like hospitals."
Before Penny could say anything else, the matron approached the girls.
"Whatever is the matter?"
"Juniper hurt her ankle at the quidditch tryouts, and she needs healing," Penny answered, trying to get Juniper inside, but the girl wouldn't budge.
Juniper shook her head in absolute refusal, her face grey. "I'm not going inside."
The matron studied her expression. Many years of working with different students showed her that some tend to be more stubborn than others.
"Okay, Miss Moss, I can have a look. I'll be right back." Madam Pomfrey left the girls alone before coming back with a drink. "I suggest you hydrate first before I check out your ankle. You will find that this will calm your nerves."
The Ravenclaw girl reluctantly took the glass of orange juice and chugged it down. She hadn't realised how parched she was. A strange wave of calmness flooded her system. Even in pain, all her worries and anxieties were melted away. The hospital wing didn't look so threatening anymore.
"Will you come inside to get your ankle properly looked at?"
Juniper found herself following the healer inside and lay on an empty bed. Penny was by her side, anxiously watching Madam Pomfrey's every move.
"Ow!" Juniper flinched at the matron's touch as she pulled off her boot. Her ankle was swollen and had already turned to a purplish-blue colour.
Madam Pomfrey assessed her ankle some more. It felt weird not being afraid inside the hospital wing. Juniper didn't know the cause, but somehow she knew it wasn't normal. What did the matron do to make her this eerily calm?
"You have sprained your ankle but not to worry. This can be fixed with a simple spell." Madam Pomfrey drew out her wand and pointed it at her ankle. "Episkey!"
All the pain seemed to dissolve as the swelling and colour slowly returned to normal; the matron then conjured a bandage to support the ankle. Juniper took a mental note that she should learn this spell.
"Juniper!" Rowan came rushing in. Her hair looked puffy as the blue and bronze scarf haphazardly draped over her shoulder. "I heard you got injured! Are you okay? Are you okay you know being here?!"
"Please be quiet, Miss Khanna. You're disturbing the patients."
Juniper blinked at her friend before cracking a wide smile. "Everything is fine, I've never been better than ever before, Rowan."
Her friend squinted at her, confused, before she looked over at Penny for details. The Hufflepuff shrugged.
"Now, Miss Moss, I recommend you stay for the night just to give your ankle a chance to heal properly." Madam Pomfrey recommended it. Rowan gave an increasingly concerned look at the matron.
"Are you sure? I feel wonderful, Madam Pomfrey." Juniper nonchalantly shrugged. Her face grew serious.
The young student had to stay overnight at the matron's stern insistence. Penny felt bad that Juniper's first quidditch game landed her in the hospital wing, but she had to leave shortly. Rowan stayed with her for a while, constantly asking if Juniper was okay in the hospital wing. Some nagging thoughts have been creeping back, but Juniper was able to brush them to the side for now.
"Juniper! Juniper!" Andre came rushing, his face filled with excitement. He was out of the quidditch gear and back into his casual clothes and purple Pride of Portree scarf. "We made it on the team! Okay, only as reserves, but we made it!"
Juniper laughed at first. She couldn't believe the words coming out of Andre's mouth. The quidditch novice made it to the reserve. "Bloody hell, that's amazing, and tae think that I would nae make it."
"Mr Egwu, I kindly ask that you leave right now. You are disturbing the patients here." Madam Pomfrey interrupted them.
"It's fine, Madam Pomfrey, Andre can stay." Juniper insisted, but the matron wouldn't waver.
"You need to rest after the ordeal you had. Mr Egwu can visit tomorrow." She was already shooing him outside the door.
"Sorry Andre." She mouthed as Andre tried to say goodbye.
Shortly after, Rowan left Juniper, still concerned but less so. Though once it was night, those anxious thoughts returned with full force. She panicked; her lungs felt constricted as she struggled to breathe. She tried to get up but struggled; the green curtains around her closed in.
Madam Pomfrey hovered over her, calmly shushing her, "Calm down, Miss Moss."
"I can't...I need to...get out of here." Juniper managed to say between breaths. Everything about the hospital wing made her skin crawl.
"It's okay, here. Take a sip." Madam Pomfrey helped her up, but Juniper fought her. The Ravenclaw knew that the matron was only trying to help but needed to get out.
"Miss Moss, please calm down or else I'll have to restrain you."
That's when it hit Juniper. The drink, yes. Madam Pomfrey must have mixed a calming draught with it and wasn't sure how to feel about it. Betrayed a bit, certainly, but was it the right thing? The matron continued to ask for Juniper to calm down until she relented.
The matron offered another drink, and Juniper eventually accepted it. She didn't like it, but what much choice did she have. Even if she flees, she will still be hunted down by Madam Pomfrey, who will be determined to put her into bed to recover.
Juniper managed to sleep through the night. She focused on the other students breathing; it didn't do much, but it helped to keep the fears and mistrust of hospitals at bay.
She woke to dull light from the persistent grey fog. Her heart started racing as she looked around. The clean, antiseptic smell hit her like a tsunami wave making her nauseous. Soon she would be out, she told herself. That mantra kept her going until she got the all-clear from Madam Pomfrey.
Juniper sprinted out like never before. She never wanted to go through that again, and it scared her that she needed to depend on calming draughts to get through. Just the thought of ending like her mother made her shudder.
How pathetic.
Another girl suddenly bumped into her. She recognised that dyed cobalt blue hair.
"Oh, sorry!"
"Watch where yer going," Skye Parkin squinted at her. "Hold up, you're that Moss girl aren't you? That was quite a stunt you pulled."
"Thanks, I guess. I was trying to do whatever to get that snitch."
"Aye, we all could see that. Shows you got some fight in you." Skye cracked a grin before a slight frown formed. "Though I would seriously work on your technique, it's probably why you only got reserve."
"Was I really that bad?" Juniper quietly asked. She thought she did decent for a novice, but Skye seemed to have other ideas.
"Aye, it was bad," Skye bluntly put it. "But as long as you put in the training you'll be fine."
Skye gave a smack on her back, "Whelp, see you at practice next week."
Penny would probably freak out that she and Juniper would be on the same team. Juniper went back to her dorm and met up with Rowan. Her friend immediately asked if she was okay and how reckless she was being with joining the quidditch team.
The remnants of Summer had faded entirely by October. Juniper kept up with her lessons, paying particular attention to her charms lessons. Mainly it was to distract herself that Ben wasn't here. She missed having him in with charms where they could chat during group work. To tell him about the quidditch team. She also missed teasing him and his reactions to anything new. Professor Flitwick expressed more clearly that using magic outside the classroom was strictly forbidden. Juniper speculated that she had something to do with it.
They hung about at their usual spots, secretly hoping Ben would appear there. Rowan and Juniper sat by the Black Lake; at the very least, it was more private.
"Okay, I managed to finally decipher the note." Rowan rummaged through her robes and skirt pockets to pull a crumpled piece of paper with her notes.
"Right and what does it say?"
"At first it thought I translated it wrong so I quadruple-checked but it says; 'Your next instruction have been transfigured into a black quill, and hidden in the Gryffindor common room. Failure to follow your instruction will result in severe punishment - R.'"
"Totally not threatening at all." Juniper sarcastically remarked. "Who's R anyway?"
Rowan fixed her glasses. "I've been wondering the same thing. Felix Rosier? Rubeus Hagrid? Argus Filch?" She was grasping at straws.
"It does nae matter who they are now. We need to find that quill for Ben's sake, and we can use Reparifarge to undo the Transfiguration."
"But how will we get inside? It's forbidden for students to visit another's House common room." Rowan grew a little worried. Understandably so, since last year, Juniper had risked expulsion several times.
"We need a plan then."
The silence encapsulated them, both Ravenclaws racking through their brains for ideas. A thought came to Juniper, and she looked at Rowan; both had the same excited glint in their dark eyes.
"We could use the shrinking and engorgement charm!"
"And there's the Gryffindor vs Slytherin match! I don't have quidditch practise then." A perfect day since all the students are gone. Also, there wouldn't be any quidditch practice, which is even better for Juniper.
"Wait? How are we using those charms?" Juniper asked, her eyebrows knitting.
Rowan had a look of wild brilliance. "Well, I thought we could use it on ourselves, and I know you would love a crazy idea like this."
A grin grew on Juniper's face. "It is crazy and dangerous but I trust you. When have they ever failed?"
"Well, I wouldn't call my plans foolproof as there is always a a chance that many things could go wrong but I appreciate the vote of confidence." Rowan blushed a little. "I will look into the spells a little more to triple check that they are safe to use. However, I was thinking that we use the shrinking spell to sneak in to the common room and then re-enlarge yourself. That way you can grab the quill. I had thought about brewing a polyjuice potion but it would take too long and Ben might not have that time."
"Agreed, we have no much time to waste then. We only have 'bout two, three weeks before the match."
Rowan nodded before that frown came again. "We have one other problem."
"Like we don't have enough already." Juniper sighed.
"We need to be careful of the Gryffindor prefect, Angelica. She's smart, so she might come back in case Slytherins try to sabotage the common room during the match." Rowan explained. Juniper recalled hearing a bit about Angelica from Ben, that she was tough.
"I'm guessing I'll work on the distraction then." The Ravenclaw quickly picked up on Rowan's meaning.
"We have a plan then."

regressor!charles smith!!
Tumblr media
note; I KNOW the whole agere challenge is all over but idc!! i've been getting into the rdr2 mood so more headcanons for all of you!! :D Anyway- CHARLES SMITH!!! I love him so, he's my favorite (if it isn't Arthur or Hosea). Like he's so sweet omg, please I needed more Charles content- (omg he's so beautiful, it took me long too pick my photo my god-)
headcanons; (cw; diapers and periods!!)
Charles is a baby/toddler regressor and his age range is 2 - 5
Like his much more bigger self, Charles is a quiet and introverted little. Always liking his own company than others and liking the peace than the loud chaoticness of what is the camp. He won't speak much either, being non-verbal almost all the time. It's rare for him to speak words, but he has a small vocabulary if so
⬇️ Also, Charles would probably like sensory deprivation. Mostly for when it's quiet and dark. He's always hated the day and with the bright sun in his eyes, and although he is a sensory seeker at most times, sometimes he needs to have a lack of that. Mostly at night. He loves being under tree shade or looking up at the night stars. Oh, and he loves Papa (Arthur), of course
With his quietness, it's made him gone missing one too many times. But he's never left far from camp, but people are still confused because 'where did he go?'. And it usually ends up in Arthur having a 2 hour search and scratching his head before he finds Charles under a tree in the fields LMAO
He is still very much a nature boy, just like Kieran. Always going out to pick herbs, plants, flowers, ect. Most of his days while being little consists of him being out in the fields, having what little peace he can get. And he's known as the camps gift-giver, because he's always giving small gifts from mother nature herself, but only to those who are most closest like Arthur or Tilly. Whatever he finds that makes him think of that person, to be honest
He's always loved the younger littles, John and Kieran, mostly. He doesn't do much with them, he just stares at them and just watches over them quietly. He only minds Sadie and Tilly for the older ones, everyone else is too much for him. Caregivers are only stuck to Arthur and Hosea. Very head-on about who he likes (me too, Charles)
He's never been so heavy first on diapers or even using them. What diapers are used for, for Charles are for comfort reasons. Baby powders quiet the comfort as well. It's not until he got too used to wearing them he would go without noticing. He felt a LOT of shame for actually going, and found it awkward to actually find out he could go. Arthur saw nothing wrong with it, just another baby that wears diapers. And he's been full supportive of his boy, helping him take baby steps (literally) (making a fic about this btw!!)
Also, I do headcanon Charles as trans! And he's usually done shark week and periods and such while he's big and alone. But has slowly come to doing all that while he's regressed. Of course, Arthur is his full support, again, and acts like the absolute legend he is as a caregiver. He would do anything to help support his boy and doesn't even see much wrong with him <3 (i need a cg like arthur pls)
As well as this, I also headcanon him as plus-sized! I am on that road, yes, and mostly because I think he would be! He would be the best with cuddles and hugs, and Arthur's a strong boah to carry his boy, so he's perfectly fine. He usually doesn't like laying on his stomach, because it makes him feel unwell, so tummy time is out of the picture
As much as it's rare to, you would see him being around the ladies. Letting them braid his hair, making small bouquets with whatever flowers are around, even passing some of them to the ladies to put in his hair. He's listening to them talk and hum and he loves it, because it's peaceful and not so loud. Always leaning on Tilly's shoulder and listening to her

Row 1:
That's "has" a FF.net account, not "had"
Had a wattpad account, didn't post much I was just taking the username
Have an AO3 account and regularly try yo support the site (though I tried to get a gift once and it never showed up...)
Definitely roleplaysd, never finished anything.
Row 2:
A absolutely used to beta, and not just for friends. I still do on rare occasion but I'm not fast at it anymore.
Don't know if I've published a fully unbeta'd fic but I've definitely rushed a oneshot here or there.
Tried to leave kudos on something I already kudos'd before. Didn't work but "A for effort" lol
Row 3:
The middle is self explanatory. Just look at all the marvel recreations or altered/adapted Shakespeare plays. They just offical AUs.
Multifandom writer indeed. Just look at my pages lol.
Don't always love it, but will often research as needed (ie how children of young ages act or react to traumas for "Finders Keepers". Mind you it was very light research)
Row 4:
I often write a plot outline before any major fic, or just to write down an idea before I forget it. This is the funniest part for me and often the fics don't make it past this part. I like having multiple scenarios and playing connect-the-dots with them. Critical thinking excercises are fun.
I am a feedback whore. Gimme all the validation.
I have done art trades or received fanart, but don't recall having commissioned any.
...too many WIPs and abandoned outlines. Way too many. I don't have the levels of energy or motivation that I used to. Yay Depression...
Editing/formatting is something I do A LOT. The average chapter may get 3-4 re-read and edits before posting minimum before it goes up. And I still miss things XP
Row 5:
I have learned that if I have an idea at 2am or whatever, I have to write it down. Immediately. Or I'll forget and be mad about it.
I am an attention seeker and I want all the attention for all my fics. But especially my Megaman ZX fics, or "Finders Keepers". This fandom needs more live, it's basically undead.
I have a few WIP original books, but as mentioned earlier, my motivation is critically low. And I seem unable to get at all excited about my own characters. It's a problem.
Fandoms I write/have written for:
Megaman Zero, Megaman ZX, Final Fantasy VII, Nefarious, Owlboy, Metroid/Halo, Legend of Zelda, Holliw Knight, A Hat in Time, and so on. Mostly derivatives or derivatives or relative fandoms.
Feel free to do this if you'd like but I'm not up for tagging anyone.

self-rec meme
Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you’ve written, then pass on to a couple of other writers. Let’s spread the self-love!
Thank you @exalted-dawn-drabbles and @cleverblackcat for the tags on this! Last time I got to highlight some fics I was proud of that hadn't reached many folks, which was really rewarding. I've written quite a bit since then so I'm happy for the chance at another go. 💚
1. let them not make me a stone (and let them not spill me)
Post-DA Inquisition || Solas x Virelan Lavellan (past relationship) and Friendship Boogaloo || M for childbirth themes || one-shot, complete
Virelan Lavellan gives birth to Tulin, but she's not alone. Iron Bull has guided her through pain worse than this, Harding has always been her firm foundation, and Dalish of the Chargers brings the comforting words of their shared people into the forefront of her grieving mind. Solas is not there, and she breaks her own heart long enough to miss him.
2. red is the colour of lust (but green is what lust leaves behind)
DA-Inquisition//Green Knight AU || Solas x Virelan Lavellan || M for violence and sexual themes || 6 chapters, complete

DFP Actors August: Alison Bruce
Tumblr media
NZ actors tend to end up in a lot of the same shows over the years it seems. I have a lot of fun spotting familiar faces, so I thought this would be a fun and silly little project, seeing which actors have repeatedly been in things that Deano was also in (not necessarily alongside). Just a bit of trivia. Enjoy!
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys (1995-1998/1995)
Tumblr media
On Hercules Dean played a few different characters: Iloran - S1E12 "The Gauntlet" Young Iolaus - S4E3 "Regrets... I've Had a Few", S4E11 "Medea Culpa" and S4E20 "Twilight". Ruun - S4E7 "Prodigal Sister"
On Hercules, Alison played Postera in S1E10 "Gladiator".
Xena: Warrior Princess (1996-2000/1995-2000)
Tumblr media
On Xena, Dean played two roles: Homer/Orion - S1E13 "Athens City Academy of the Performing Bards" Wiglaf - S6E9 "Return of the Valkyrie"
On Xena, Alison played three roles: Queen Melosa - S1E10 "Hooves and Harlots" Talia - S5E4 "Animal Attraction" Kahina - S6E5 "Legacy"
These shows reused actors so much! I am sure even casual watchers noticed.
Shortland Street (1996/1998)
Tumblr media
Dean played Nurse Harry Martin in 1996. Alison played Danni Brown / Nurse Lindsay Maguire. Sorry, it's very hard to find old Shortland Street clips and I have no idea which episodes she's even in, so no stills of Alison sadly.
The Chosen (1998)
Tumblr media
A TV movie/miniseries I can't find at all, just this trailer. Dean played Andrew Scott. Alison played Denise.
Young Hercules (1998-1999/1998-1999)
Tumblr media
Dean played Iolaus in 46 (of 50) episodes. Alison played Simula in 6 episodes.
Legend of the Seeker (2009/2010)
Tumblr media
Dean played Carver Dunn in S1E17 “Deception”. Alison played Sister Verna in 4 episodes, between S2E8-S2E22.
The Almighty Johnsons (2011-2013/2011-2012)
Tumblr media
Dean played Anders Johnson throughout the series (seasons 1-3). Alison played Agnetha in seasons 1 & 2.
Hillary (2016/2016)
Tumblr media
Dean played George Lowe (in all 6 episodes). Alison played Phyllis Rose (in 5 episodes).
George is Ed Hillary's friend, and Phyllis is Ed's mother-in-law.
I just can't seem to get over the Rose family being totally cool with the age difference between Ed and their daughter... But at least she was a supportive mother? I guess? And I liked that they at least acknowledged that it was kinda weird.
The Brokenwood Mysteries (2018/2018)
Tumblr media
They actually appeared in the same episode! In Season 5 Episode 4 "The Dark Angel", Dean played Barnaby Buchanan, a patient at the Deschler clinic. Alison played Fiona Deschler, who worked at the clinic and was married to Jakob Deschler (the murder victim).
Unfortunately this means that Alison's character was involved in Dean's character's torture. :(
Golden Boy (2019-2020/2019-2020)
Tumblr media
Dean played Aussie Dave. Alison played Carol / Susan. (I haven't watched it yet, she's credited for both names on IMDB - Can anyone explain to me?)
One Lane Bridge (2020/2020-2021)
Tumblr media
Dean played Andrew "Grub" Ryder for the first 6 episodes, S1E1-S1E6. Alison played Lois Tremaine in 11 episodes between S1E1-S2E5.
And that's all I have on these two. Did I miss anything?

Tent Girl
In May 1968, a man named Wilbur Riddle happened to be collecting gold glass telephone-pole insulators from the roadside of I-75 near Georgetown and, in so doing, made a ghoulish discovery.
He came upon a large bundle wrapped in green tent tarpaulins. Curious, he gave me it a kick, and sent it rolling down the roadside embankment. As it went, the other tarp came off and revealed a second tarp-shaped like a human body.
Riddle rushed to a nearby gas station and called the sheriff, who came out and cut away the tarp. Inside was a badly decomposing female body stiffened into a position seemingly of escape from the wrappings. She was white, sixteen to nineteen years old, with short, reddish brown hair, and no identifying scars, tattoos, or marks of any kind.
Because the Jane Doe was wrapped in tent tarpaulins, the press dubbed her Tent Girl. The police waited for someone to come forward to identify her, but no one did. False hopes were raised when a mother of a missing teen thought the body might be that of her daughter, but it wasn't.
Tent Girl was buried in Georgetown Cemetery in 1971 and received a headstone etched with the police sketch and description, in hopes that someone still might step forward to identify her. Months turned to years. Years turned to decades. All hope was lost of determining the identity of the girl who had become something of an icon as one of America's most troubling unsolved mysteries. Her grave site and the location in which her body was found both became part of something called "legend tripping"-destinations for curiosity seekers.
Then along came private detective Todd Matthews, who became fascinated with the story when he began dating Wilbur Riddle's daughter. He threw himself headlong into the case, devoting thousands of hours of research and travel to finding more information about Tent Girl. In 1998, his efforts paid off. Using the Internet, he met a woman who was seeking the whereabouts of her sister, Barbara Anna Hackmann-Taylor, who had been missing since 1967. Because Barbara was thought to have been living in Florida at the time of her disappearance, no one had connected her to Tent Girl until Matthews put the pieces of the story together and had the body exhumed. Sure enough, DNA evidence indicated that Tent Girl was indeed Barbara Ann Hackmann-Taylor, and the decades-long mystery was put to rest. A second grave marker, this one bearing her name, was place underneath the original Tent Girl headstone.
But the mystery of what happened to her still remains, and we may never know the true circumstances of her death. Barbara's family last knew her to be in the company of husband, a traveling carnival worker named George Earl Taylor. Prior to Tent Girl's identification, Mr. Taylor insisted that he hadn't seen Barbara in years, and that she had simply left him for another man without seeking a divorce. By the time Tent Girl was discovered to be his wife, he had long since died of cancer.

I'm literally sitting in my room listening to his playlists on Spotify. How the hell did I get here? There are several things racing through my mind. None of which outweighs the other but are all hitting simultaneously. To help make things easier for you to follow, we’re micro focusing on the final boss per say. So, what's hitting my mind? First, but not really first, why the fuck am I doing this to myself? Am I just bored? Am I missing the idea of him again? (keyword= idea of him) Am I trying to manifest something that I know will never happen? Does this guy really think of that other girl when he listens to these love songs? Could the title of the playlist suggest some kind of hidden use of each? If so, does our old song fuel him with the kind of rage necessary to hit a new PR? Does he sing “Better Together” by Jack Johnson to her, to show how much he loves her? Why couldn’t I get the same or better treatment? I know he only loved me for a week or two tops, so why didn’t he just leave me alone while we were still young? I guess you kinda get an idea of what I’ve been through, but let's dive a little deeper into details. You see, I was in a serious relationship where, unfortunately, the girl loved the boy “more” or simply just loved the boy, and it was not reciprocated. I can try to blame conformality as a reason for why it lasted so long, but I really don’t know anymore now that I have had 4 years to reflect. You see, this reflection has produced a seed within my mind that makes me wonder if I ever knew him... I don’t think I ever did, yet I continue to daydream about the same stranger with that familiar mask. These are the questions that shall remain unanswered until the corresponding person answers them himself. Anyways, to cut a long story short, after several years of being together, he ultimately decided that he wanted to be with another girl that he had met at school. I remember the day he told me clearly. I can't lie and say that it doesn’t hurt anymore to think back on cause, unfortunately, it still does. After all, the sting of betrayal mixed with the apocalyptic heartbreak of your life isn't easy to forget. The thing about that type of situation is that it leaves scars and fears where happiness and peace used to be leaving behind some kind of overgrown thorn. Kinda like the thorn from the book, Legend of the Seeker. The more and more Richard Cypher tried to get rid of the thorn embedded in his hand, the more it burrowed itself. If it weren't for the help of his wizard friend, Cypher would have died. Heartbreak and fear can burrow deep inside of your heart if you're not careful. Sadly, wizards don’t exist in our world to help out either. But if you do happen to be a real wizard, please come find me and help me feel whole again. Come and erase the memories of my one true love.

Yasuo was outside, the upper portion of his robe hanging from his waist as he went through the drills he was preparing for the students. In his hands was one of the new wooden swords they would be using. “One... Two... Three, and back... One... Two... Three, and back... One... Two... Three and Strike!” He’d changed the last of the movement and then let out a small breath as he wiped the sweat from his brow. “That shouldn’t be too taxing on them... I can’t coddle, but I also can’t be too harsh or els-” ‘Else they’ll end up quittin?’ Yasuo quickly jumped back and took a stance before noticing the owner of the voice that responded and groaned. “What do you want Dad?” Juichiro came out of the bushes and let out a sigh. ‘I’m worried ‘boutcha’ “Well that’s a first.” ‘Can it with the smart-ass remarks. I may have not been a father up until... well... just now, but I can try.’ “Yes, you can, however, I have to work. “ ‘No, you gotta take a break Yasuo. Do you know how long you’ve been out here?’ “...Um.” ‘Nine Hours... Straight.’ “Oh...” ‘You’re working yourself to death kiddo. C’mon, take a break for a bit and eat. I got some game from a hunt, let’s cook it up.’ “...Alright.” 
-Time Passes-
The principal would sit on the steps to the school next to his dad and sigh. “To think I’d been going on that long.” ‘Imagine my surprise when I left and came back hours later to see you still doing this.’ “Yeah... yeah... I should... I should probs go into town for a bit and visit mom too. I dunno when was the last time I sent a letter.” ‘Woof, you missed Heart-Seekers? Man, you’re up the creek now kid! Ga ha ha ha!’ “Oh shut-up! I- wha-huh?” He was stopped when his father pushed him up onto his feet. Tsu would come out of the school and let out a noise before going over to Juichiro. The older man would chuckle and pet the pup before looking at Yasuo. ‘Go to your ma. I’ll hang up a sign and keep an eye on the place while you’re gone. Okay? Lemme try and be a lil bit of a dad. Plus, I’ll only charge ya half my going rate~’ He’d grin before Yasuo took his pet(son) from his dad and held him. He’d roll his eyes right after before heading to the doorframe. “...Yea... Yea I’ll get going now... Um... Thanks again... pops.” ‘Ooooo I’ve upgraded to pops now? You won’t get a bigger discount, but thanks my boy~’ The ronin growled a bit while blushing slightly before heading off to pack.
It didn’t take long before the swordsman was ready and his little legend was walking alongside him. He stepped out in front of the school. “...I’ll be back soon.” He’d quietly mutter to himself before heading towards town. Hopefully there wasn’t something he was forgetting.

Can I just say I am absolutely LOVING the sudden resurgence of the Legend of the Seeker cast.
First Bridget and Tabrett’s Instagram live where they talked about the show and answered questions, and then Craig Horner suddenly doing like a 2+ hour-long jam session on Insta live too. (He sings and plays guitar, so talented! I didn’t know that he’d released music at some point?!) And he said he and Bridget are planning to do an Instagram live soon too?? This is AMAZING.

No way did Legend of the Seeker come out 10 years ago.
I feel ancient and nostalgic.
