@eclipsewaxing liked for a little thing with older!Maru

The axe stuck in the stump with a dull thud and the fair haired feline wiped the sweat from his brow with the rag tied around his wrist before he tilted his head back to check once more how far off the weather was. Too close, but he’d gotten his firewood chopped before the rain hit at least. His knee would appreciate it.

The quiet after the rhythmic chopping of wood was suddenly deafening and it was in that silence that he heard footsteps, his ear turned towards the source of the sound.

His lance was inside the small cottage behind him, the modest little place he called home, but the axe was still right there and it’d do in a pinch. Several small drops of rain began to plink off the blade and the Miqo’te quietly pleaded with the weather to hold off just a few moments longer.

#eclipsewaxing #left it open as to whether they are/stil together #and whether they've had contact #since Maru left after Griever's aether was taken back

  @eclipsewaxing​ asked : namedays are important, he supposes, though his grasp on time is far worse than it's any right to be. still, he manages to leave a parcel for amaya out by her door. it wasn't much, a fairly simple tea set, but cups and pot themselves were clearly of doman make, and the small sachets of tea he'd provided along with them were also clearly not from eorzea. he leaves a note as well;

"here's to many more namedays in your honor. the other part of your gift wouldn't fit in this tiny box, but tataru has it for you. r.m."

and so tataru does: a pristine, blue stepstool with amaya's name lovingly engraved on it.

carrying the parcel to her table, she curiously opens it. in her head there is no reason for her to get a gift.. until she reads the note. so it’s that day again! she keeps forgetting about it. the gift in itself is rather thoughtful - amaya does not own many things from doma, most of what her parents brought along had been shattered or broken during the calamity... 

suddenly her throat feels a little bit more dry and she quickly clears it, before furiously wiping over her eyes. don’t cry! don’t cry! you’re not a crybaby anymore... 

a resolve that gets quite tested when she enters the rising stones later, looking for rinh’a to thank him. tataru informs her that the other hasn’t been seen since he dropped off her second present. the lalafell sighs, shaking her head “I am sure he felt real clev--- amaya are you crying?”

“...maybe? I actually needed one.” she knows that it might as well be a jab at her rather unimpressive height, but it has her name on it! it was made for her! how could she not be moved by such a present? and besides, she’s always been a terribly sentimental person with a habit of crying easily, even when happy.

@eclipsewaxing​ (cont.)

    the concern may appear to very well be wasted on him, given his inclination was to not immediately respond or otherwise acknowledge the comment was made at all. but a reaction is drawn from him, eventually, after several seconds of mulling it over, and rinh’a props his chin on the back of his hand, propped on his thigh as he squats next to a crystal deposit that looked ripe with aetherial energy. bemusement in his gaze, he cracks a reassuring smile.

    “perhaps five years ago, you’d be right,” he responds, ear flicking when he can hear the sudden shift in aetherial balance warning him of the crystal’s impending discharge. still, he remains, undeterred by a little aether explosion. “tis part of the job now, surveying these deposits and seeing how the calamity continues to impact eorzea.”

Having been through all that she’s seen thus far, Melody wasn’t a confused novice anymore. She’d learned much, namely in the behavior of various things from the aftermath of the Calamity. 

Even at her safe distance away, the possibility of a discharge was not lost on her - thus her comment. A brow arched at him, even as he remained to continue speaking.

Despite having a desire to watch Rinh’a eat his words, protective nature took hold of her decision-making. Snatching her staff, hands wove a particular spell, one that would instead yank her friend away from the impending blast, and deliver him safely (or relatively so) at her side.

And just in time, too. Looking at where he’d once been, she smirked and tilted her head. 

“Five years ago, you say..?”

five of those modern headcanons too stinky

Send me “Five of those ______ HC’s” and fill in the blank with a topic, and I’ll give you five headcanons about that topic for my muse! Accepting!

Maru has two modern verses so I shall do headcanons for both, because I can.

Modern AU 1: Homeless Maru

For all his circumstances are bad, he doesn’t take it out on others and tries to remain positive and friendly regardless. He comes to be fairly well known, enough that a couple of shopkeepers and the local patrol cop will check in on him and make sure he’s okay.

Before he was exiled from his family lands and sent to the city, he learned to use the staff. He can often be seen seemingly using a long stick as a walking aid but he will kick your ass with it if he needs to. It also doubles as a decent tent-pole when he needs one too...

He’s missing part of his left ear after getting into a fight with someone trying to steal from him and they pulled a shank on him. He’s not one to avoid conflict though, so if someone starts on him, he will defend himself and if he witnesses a fight or something on the street, he will get involved. He’s helped catch the occasional shoplifter trying to make a break for it.

His main source of income is from selling his whittled animal figures but he’ll take payment in the form of hot chocolate or food too.

With no home address, he can’t open a bank account and therefore can’t get a job outside of those granting cash-in-hand and it’s real dangerous for a vagrant to have a lot of cash on him. He looks for volunteering opportunities to keep him busy during the colder months when he’d rather not be sat around outside trying to sell his meager wares.

BONUS HC! If you befriend him you get free carvings, if you gift him something, he’ll use what little money he might have to gift you something in return (he’s really not very good at accepting charity) and if you buy him a mocha that’s more chocolate than coffee, he will make happy noises for you and let you pet the ears and/or tail. 

Modern AU 2: Carpenter Maru

Always gets sawdust in his hair and despite his efforts to rid himself of it short of a shower, there’s always bits of it in his hair. People probably think he has dandruff.

He looks damn good in a tanktop with his arms on display. Just sayin’

He rides a Vyrus. He fucking loves his Vyrus. You damage his Vyrus he’ll be a very sad cat.

His workshop opens straight onto the street and as such he can be seen working, usually on pieces of furniture. He doesn’t mind being watched, especially when he’s been commissioned to work on something interesting.

He doesn’t get out there very often but there’s a nightclub fairly local to him that he likes to visit because he likes to dance. He gets some odd looks when he orders the colourful, fruity and sweet drinks but he knows what he likes.

BONUS HC! He can poledance. He doesn’t have a pole installed at his flat though. Yet.

#eclipsewaxing #you are too kind giving me these asks #<3 #except when you call me stinky #I don't smell that bad #i showered recently #anyway #i wanted to try something a little different than the typical au #which is why he has a homeless modern verse

@eclipsewaxing​ continued...

           Felled with one bolt- they had hoped for more. As the creature falls into the waters below, the being is silent; eyes examining the terrain for any further threat. Only when they deem the coast clear did they turn around and regard the companion their host seemed to admire enough to toss himself into the maw of danger and death.

           “ I ᴀᴍ Gᴏʏᴀᴛsᴜᴍɪ.” Comes K’tixa’s voice among a chorus of several. Though speaking, their voice sang amongst each other- some in unison and some out of beat; each voice blending perfectly together to be heard as one harmony and yet distinct enough to identify individually. " Aɴ ᴀɴᴄɪᴇɴᴛ ᴋᴀᴍɪ ꜰᴏʀɢᴏᴛᴛᴇɴ. Mʏ ᴄʜᴏsᴇɴ ᴄᴀʟʟᴇᴅ ᴜᴘᴏɴ ᴍᴇ ɪɴ ꜰᴇᴀʀ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ᴍɪɢʜᴛ ʙᴇ ʜᴜʀᴛ, ᴏʀ ᴡᴏʀsᴇ." And K’tixa was worried he, as a mortal, would not make it there in time. So the god stepped in.

           "Yᴏᴜ ᴀʀᴇ ɴᴏᴛ ʜᴜʀᴛ, ᴀʀᴇ ʏᴏᴜ?"

the man shambles into the rising stones, carrying a wooden box with some dirt in his hands and a paper bag in his mouth. he sets the whole affair on the nearest table and looks to retrieve feo sul from whatever affair she's been whisked into.

"i just had the thought," he starts, poorly hiding his excitement about what he had in store for her, "that since you liked flowers, it'd be nice to have our own little garden at the rising stones. i've procured the seeds and the necessary dirt and all, so now we just need to make sure they're getting enough light and water." and plant the seeds, obviously; he's just the muscle.

The sudden entrance sure enough startles the pixie, having been busy pilling some pretty shells she'd found in various places around the room to spruce up the atmosphere. Though his quick to the point plan was suddenly much more interesting than what she had been previously doing.

"A garden?! Inside?! What a marv'lous idea!" Jumping up into his recently occupied arms, her little arms wrap around his neck as her little feet kick about giddily. "M'so proud'a ya! Thinkin' like a true beauty lover! We'll have this place full up'a fresh veggies an' flowers!" And since it wasn't technically her idea, she wouldn't get in trouble if she went a little too far and accidentally made something sentient. "Can we start now? Where should we set up? We can move all those ugly boxes of supplies an' have it in th'front room!" Probably not the best idea, but Feo Sul thought those boxes were such an eyesore, she wished they'd at least make them pretty colors or let her paint them.
