Tag Game - Word Search

Okay, okay, I had to do this for @mikaharuka, @udaberriwrites, @oceangirl24 and @alpaca-clouds. Thanks for tagging me! My post kept crashing so I had to make a new one lol.

These are all from part 3 of my "Fire of a Thousand Suns" series, "A Twisted Timeline Tale of Breath of the WIld." My words: Sword, Blood, Shiver, Voice, Lock

SWORD: (Chapter 80):

Fi’s voice abruptly addressed him once again, the voice of the Sword still echoing in his mind. "Ganon was born out of a dark past. He is the pure embodiment of an ancient evil reborn time and time again. He has given up on reincarnation and has assumed his pure, enraged spiritual form. If set free upon your world the destruction will be unlike anything ever seen before in all the Realms."Link's eyes were suddenly drawn to Zelda's golden orb floating above him, and he breathed a deep sigh of relief. She spoke within his mind once again. "Link! I'm so relieved you’re safe! We must hurry! The Goddess has forged a weapon, the counterpart to the Sword That Seals the Darkness. She has entrusted you with the Light Bow. Take it, and we will defeat Dark Beast Ganon together! I love you, my beloved king."

BLOOD: (Chapter 14) Link is still bleeding profusely onto the ground. He cannot speak but only stares up at her helplessly. She violently rips off his shirt to soak up his blood while she yanks the Sheikah slate from his hip. She frantically taps the screen with shaking hands and materializes Blood Balm and a bottle of disinfectant. She winces, knowing this is going to hurt.

Forty seconds left.

She quickly pours the disinfectant over him. He yells and passes out from the unbearable pain of the liquid as it rushes like a scathing, burning river of serrated razors tearing through his open wound.

"No Link, please. Don't you dare."

She applies the Blood Balm. His physical life force is quickly draining into an ever-growing dark red puddle beside her beloved. She applies pressure with his soaked shredded shirt hard against the massive wound.

Twenty seconds left.

“Please, Hylia, help him." She jerks a large bandage out of her bag, forces the shirt out of the way, and tightly wraps the bandage with frantic speed against the large gash that has gloriously begun repairing itself thanks to the quick effects of the Blood Balm. She breathes for the first time.

“Goddess Hylia, please help me! Link, hold on!”

SHIVER: (Chapter 53)

Link placed a hand around the small of her back and gently pushed her down with the other, easing her onto her back on the ground underneath him. He playfully ran his tongue from the base of her neck up to her ear and gently gave it a nibble.

"Liiink…” She was breathing faster now, unable to stop the waves of desire that were sending trails of fire though her blood again.

"So, what do you think, my lady? Shall we stay here? How many mountains in Hyrule can we defile? We’ve already defiled Mt. Lanayru. Shall we add Satori Mountain to the list?” His hushed, low whispers in her ear sent a shiver down her spine and straight to a certain area of her that Link was slightly rubbing himself against.

She let out a nervous giggle, and Link saw her blush at his stimulating words, even in shadow.

VOICE: ((Chapter 58)

She climbed into his lap and turned, facing away from him. She could hear his breath hitch at the contact of her sitting there. He wrapped his arms around her from behind and began slowly placing sweet but teasing kisses between her shoulder blades as she leaned back into him. Pricks of pleasure zapped her with every kiss. Her voice was breathless. “I don’t know about you, Link, but…I think this beats a massage and a soft bed…don’t you?” Her voice was shaking, reflecting her building desire. “Mmm…” he softly hummed. “I’m the happiest anywhere and anytime I can hold you and kiss you like this.”

LOCK: (Chapter 67)

Vah Naboris, the camel-like Divine Beast, takes a walk, the land shaking with every step. It settles upon the cliffs of the Gerudo Desert, folding its legs underneath itself as it lies in the dry, arid desert air of the region’s highlands. It faces Hyrule Castle as anticipation wells within its pilot, the Gerudo Champion Urbosa. A large, powerful red laser beam extends from between the ears of the camel-like Divine Beast, setting its sights on Ganon’s cocoon, joining the other three beams that are armed and at the ready.

Urbosa speaks. “You are a legend! Isn’t that right, Naboris? The bitter essence of my defeat a century ago still sits upon my tongue, but that is now in the past. It is written that Calamity Ganon once took the form of a Gerudo. That will make this victory all the more satisfying. I like that, because now I can take this personally. We have established a lock on that thing, and now it is up to Link to keep Ganon occupied until the moment we unleash our strike. That moment is going to be so delicious.”

Vah Naboris unleashes a deafening grunt and a cry in response that echoes throughout the land of Hyrule. The Divine Beast and its pilot are ready. What a fun game! Tagging @axolotlsupremacyowo, @1up-girl, @zeldaseyebrows, @drsteggy and @tsunderewatermelon (No pressure!) Your words are: Love, fallen, high, battle, and soft

hm. major characters' favorite types of weather

HM!!

mipha used to like rain!! its one of the only weathers where new types of creatures come out, like tireless frogs. also its pretty she doesnt care what anyone says its always pretty. especially with how the domains lights reflect off of it!!!! also it feels really nice on her scales. she likes to direct water by moving her arm whe droplets are running across it so it looks like her hand is a small hose if its raining enough. anyways however uh. after vah ruta she probably likes to see the domain sunny again. i dont know how aware she was during the whole being trapped as a spirit thing, so she may still like the rain but’s still weary over it. so right now her favorite weather would probably be sun showers: not enough rain to break the dam and its sunny, but its still raining so critters come out And you feel nice rain on your skin/scales, and the rainbows!!! promises of a better future over all. also i forgot about thunderstorms in the past she’d go over to watch the lightning, nowadays she’ll still watch it but isnt a fan of the noise or wind

on one hand i dont think revali would have a good perception of weather in general (tabantha alone has like. a 2% chance rain and is mostly always sunny, and after doing the shrine quest for the singing chicks/the singing rocks quest rito village is just set to Always Sunny. no i dont know why . so its good chance that for revali itd either be Sunny or Snowy and no in between. ritoes still know of rain though (in game dialogue) so he at least knows of it), however once he does travel i dont think he’d like the rain honestly. makes his feathers wet and heavy and hes not even taking a shower and its Cold >:( . while rainbows would be cool to him once again the rain deters him. snowy is familiar to him but sometimes thats a bad thing. as much as he Knows it its both extremely cold, hard to see through, cold with the Wind making it feel a lot more cold than it is, and yeah. ive said that he would pride himself on being able to see through it which he would but sometimes i think itd be a struggle over all. so he likes sunny the best. thunder irritates him

daruk doesnt have too much of a preference! he likes sunny as its what his home had before death mt was active, rain is something new and surprisingly feels nice, sun showers have both the perks of sunny and rain And have the bonus of rainbows. i dont think he’d like heavy Heavy rain or thunderstorms but yeah! he also wouldnt like snow nor lava/magma weather

urbosa would love thunder storms. gerudo desert as beautiful and homey as it is is so hot. it makes you sluggish tired ready to puke and pass out from heatstroke. unless you have a circlet you will Not Have Fun. always bring water i cannot stress this enough. so having cold rain would already be fun enough, both because of the kind of child instinct of wanting to play in the rain but also Water. Cool. feels nice. minus getting your clothes wet but Still. and then Lightning Too?????? she can practice smiting people and no one would notice!! on a more serious note though she’d like to see thunder in its. Natural Habitat. though she might be a little more weary of it after naboris. also once again she just likes the rain especially if its raining really hard. she does not like snow at all, sunnys meh, sun showers are cool

zelda!!!!!!! thunder storms sun showers and surprisingly enough, snow!! she likes snow the most due to being able to play with snow, snowflakes Looking Like That, and how it feels in general. if its not windy its Perfect for her. sun showers show rainbows and thats mostly what shes a fan of, she Does like the rain but probably a lot more post cal because she can play in mud and dirt and rain with no consequence/shame. she probably Would have shame over it unless there was a goal to it . like walking through bottomless bogs just to get across she’d Do That. but i dont know if she’d actually play play in mud unfortunately </3 . thunderstorms she likes seeing how the thunder Comes In, as they appear through little clouds like the dragon clouds. also did you know that at certain mountain points if its thundering itll turn to snow but the thundering itself wont stop, so itll snow And thunder. i think thatd be her favorite. i dont think she likes the sound of thunder though. also she likes the ash flakes of magma weather but Hates the hot

wreath!!!! neutral however he hates thunderstorms and snowy weather. thunderstorms as it Targets his Weapons and he gets Fried!!!!!!!!!!!! also he cant climb walls. snowy weather he can never see anything and its always creepy… herobrine weather. he does like rain (pretty) but once again. he cannot scale anything. this led to him while scaling the skull lake eye shrine to camp out in a small caveish/a place where he could stand on solid ground when he was halfway up. i think zelda would want to do this and Do This instead of teleporting up. anyways sunnys meh to him. provides nothing of value except in snow regions. post everything it doesnt really. matter to him . well even less. he likes rain a little more now but yeah! probably rain

#wreath of the bild #HI!!!!!!!!!! interesting question!!!!!#if any of this is.. off? i am sorry. noise distractions

WIP WEDNESDAY

Yeah, I’m sporadic on these because it’s been a lot of cosplay stuff, but I have to switch gears and I did today. This is certainly subject to change

Zelda has seemed quietly crushed since she came down from the slopes of Mt. Lanayru. When Urbosa reaches for her, her fire is suddenly back.

“No,” the princess pulls back and stands tall. “I’m not a child anymore. I may not be much use on the battlefield. But there must. There must be something I can do to help.”

“You figure that out,” Revali crouches to ready his updraft again. “I’m off to Vah Medoh.” He launches himself into the sky, spiraling up before curving his path westward toward Hebra.

“We should all go,” Daurk looked up as the Rito vanished into the sky. “We will meet back at the castle when its over.”

Urbosa remembered this moment later. She had a lot of time later to remember everything.

They ran back down the promenade as a group. Mipha left first, diving into the water as soon as she could after stealing a kiss from Link. She said nothing, the Calamity made her bold at last. Link was momentarily off guard and red faced as she pushed off him to head to the water. Then she was gone.

Daruk split away next, though he stopped and said goodbye, and wished Zelda luck in discovering her power soon. Zelda looked away, frustration shining in her eyes.

Breath of the Wild: A Cannonical Timeline of Events Leading up to the Calamity (Part 2)

This is Part 2 of a three-part post laying out the cannon timeline of events in BOTW that led up to the Great Calamity. A while ago, I typed up a timeline to use as a reference for BOTW writing in my Google docs, but I figured it may be useful to other people who struggle with the same slog of remembering what happened when.

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3

Reminder that this is a long post, and that all events that are listed are taken from:

The original 13 memories

The separate diaries of Zelda and her father

Zelda’s research journal

The Champion’s Ballad DLC, which includes additional memories + diary entries from each of the four champion pilots

Masterworks/Creating a Champion, which discusses things like specific routes taken upon Calamity Ganon’s return.

KEY

🔸Rigidly Cannon

🔺Some Interpretation Needed

🔹Mostly Interpretive

🔸Subdued Ceremony

This is a ceremony for Link’s official appointment as Zelda’s knight. This can really be told from anyone’s perspective. Keep in mind that different characters will feel different emotions regarding this ceremony - no champion here feels the same.

🔸Revali’s Flap

I actually love this scene, because it shows just how much “being a Champion” can affect people differently. Revali and Link are polar opposites here.

🔸Resolve and Grief

The purpose of Link and Zelda’s outing is debatable (🔹) - they likely are on their way to Goron City, considering the next event(s) in the timeline, but they may also just be out doing research. It’s up to the writer. Their conversation during this scene is rather isolated from whatever their goal is, so it doesn’t really matter.

🔸Daruk’s Mettle

Before this scene, it’s stated in Daruk’s training journal that Link helped Daruk figure out piloting by simply shoving him into the divine beast and letting him explore it on his own. Although Link doesn’t show much emotion here, it’s important to have the underlying knowledge that he and Daruk are good friends.

🔺More Shrines are Uncovered

It’s around this time that more shrines are being discovered - relics of the battle 10,000 years ago. Purah’s theory is that the Hero of Legend is destined to access the shrines in preparation for the Calamity’s return, possibly with the Sheikah slate. That said, I truly don’t know why Link was never given a shot at opening the shrines himself. This could merely have been because Zelda was too afraid to give him the chance to accomplish yet another thing that she couldn’t. There’s also a possibility that Link did try opening the shrines and it still didn’t work (in which case, why did it work 100 years later? - a possible theory via Zeltik on YT). Edit: I recently put together a theory that explains how Purah and Zelda didn’t understand the full mechanics of the slate/shrines/towers. Check it out to get a better idea.

🔸Zelda’s Resentment

How did she get away from Link long enough to make it to the Anciet Columns? I have no clue. I’ve read that she simply left while he was packing up camp, another story said that she slipped him a sleeping drug. Writers, man.

🔺Link Gets Into Gerudo Town with Urbosa’s Help

Cannon, but not delved into. Urbosa states in her diary that she told Link “a way” to sneak in - it can be assumed that she meant cross dressing, but it can be whatever the writer wants. Maybe she just told Link about a secret passage into town. Regardless, however he gets into town, he doesn’t find Zelda.

🔸Urbosa’s Hand

Urbosa lets Link know that Zelda has come to Vah Naboris, and he makes his way there (not quite sure how he climbed the thing). Urbosa takes the opportunity to tell Link about Zelda’s struggle to conquer her powers, and when finished, she orders Link to guard the Princess with his life. This is Urbosa, mind - while they’re all technically on the same level as “Champions”, Urbosa is definitely Link’s superior, spiritually if not literally. This adds another layer of necessity to Link’s duty - not only to protect Zelda, but to stop the Calamity.

🔸Blades of the Yiga

Again, it’s unknown how Zelda got away from Link. Either way, Zelda regards this event in her diary as a relative turning point in her relationship with him.

🔺Zelda Apologizes to Link

This presumably happed soon after, although what she says and how Link handles it is entirely up to interpretation. Keep in mind that she isn’t just apologizing for constantly abandoning him and making his job harder - she’s apologizing for assuming he was shallow and obnoxious, and has the mindset of trying to get to know him better.

🔸A Premonition

A big battle theoretically took place before this scene, but Link only came away with one major wound - do with that as you may.

🔸Silent Princess

Personally one of my favorites. Zelda is at Peak Dork here. Link’s emotions could honestly range from crushing and bashful to beyond annoyed - up to the writer.

🔺Mipha Completes the Lightscale Armor

A bit tragic, yeah. To her credit, it does fit Link perfectly, even 100 years later. She plans to propose to Link when he next visits Zora’s Domain.

🔸Mipha’s Touch

Even more tragic. Similar to Daruk’s Mettle(🔸), keep in mind that Link and Mipha have a long history of knowing each other, which can be hard to remember since Link is mostly unresponsive in this memory. Mipha’s POV would be interesting here, especially since she intended to propose properly and ultimately didn’t.

🔸Shelter from the Storm

This is an interesting scene to write for a few author’s I’ve met, because in this memory we see Zelda actively ask Link a complex question. Although the memory fades, Link presumably responded - with what? That could range wildly. (🔹)

🔺Link Opens Up to Zelda

Link admits that the burden of the sword requires him to remain impassive on the surface. This conversation may have happened during the previous memory.

🔸Father and Daughter

Zelda’s emotions are pretty straightforward here, but Link’s aren’t nearly as clear. If anything, this scene shows that although he has opened up more to Zelda, he still knows his formal place. This is the last time Zelda ever speaks to her father, as he dies when the Calamity hits.

🔸Slumbering Power

Zelda openly questions her faith here. Angst is high. She honestly just needs a hug. Once again, there’s a cliffhanger - Link turns to look at her, obviously switching from his duty of being turned away. Why is up to the writer. He’s been listening, so what does he think?

🔸To Mount Lanayru

Zelda turns 17 the next day. She and Link return to the castle before journeying to Mt. Lanayru - this is where Zelda inputs her final entry in her diary, and where she has her dream about a woman looking at her through the light. She continues to question her faith.

🔺The Champions See Link and Zelda Off

Urbosa, Daruk, and Mipha all met Link and Zelda at the foot of Mt. Lanayru to see them off on their journey to the Spring of Wisdom. Revali doesn’t join them, saying he’s busy but will likely meet them on their way back down. We see him there with the others before Calamity Ganon returns.

His Ninjas

Second chapter of my @talisbirthdaychallenge fic!

Chapter 2: New Heights

As always, Ziva woke up before the other two and went out for a walk around the area. By the time she returned, Tony and Tali were awake and getting ready for their first day of sightseeing. “Are you just immune to jetlag or something?” Tony yawned, buttoning his shirt. “I brought breakfast,” she said, rather than responding, and placed a box of doughnuts on the table, then handed her partner a paper cup. He opened the lid, closed his eyes, and inhaled the coffee scent deeply. “Have I told you how much I love you?” he practically moaned. “You have,” she said with a shrug, “but I can always stand to hear it again.” Tony pressed a kiss to her cheek and opened the box of doughnuts. “Hey, T-Bird,” he called to their daughter, “come get some breakfast.” “Ooh,” Tali cooed, climbing onto a chair to pick out a treat, “I love doughnuts.” “Daddy’s girl,” Ziva teased, swatting at Tony’s stomach. He rolled his eyes. “Should we tell her?” he asked Ziva. Tali’s ears perked up and she paused her perusal, “Me?”

“I do not know, Tony. Do you think we should tell her?” “Is it me?” Tali said, fully turning to face her parents. Tony shrugged, continuing the game, “Tough question. It might be too exciting. I mean, it’s such good news.” “Tell me!” Tali called. “Hmm, you are right,” Ziva replied, pretending to ignore their child, “She may not even want to know.” “I wanna know, I wanna know,” Tali begged. Tony pretended to think about it while Tali reached out her little hand and grabbed his arm. “Daaaaaaddyyyyy,” she pleaded. “Oh!” he said, pretending to have just noticed the little girl, “Tali. Didn’t see you come in. Ima and I were just discussing if you would like to know about your super-special, extra-fantastic birthday present that we got for you.” Tali’s eyes grew wide and she nodded frantically. “Well, you know how your birthday is in a couple of days?” he began. “Yep. I’m gonna be six!” she said proudly. He nodded, “That’s right. And your Ima and I decided that we would take you on an extra special trip just for your birthday.” Tali narrowed her eyes, “But you said we were in Japan for your work.” Ziva nodded, “We are, but we are going somewhere special while we are here.” “Is it the Pokemon Cafe?” Tali gasped. Tony opened and closed his mouth a few times, trying to think of the right words, “We are going to the Pokemon Cafe, but that’s not your special gift.” “So it’s even more special than the Pokemon Cafe?” Tali asked, thinking Tony nodded, “I think so, what do you think, Ima?” “Oh,” Ziva said, pretending to be taken aback, “yeah, I think so.” Tali leaned forward, conspiratorially, “Where is it?” Tony made a show of looking around, as if he were making sure that no one was around to hear his answer, before he and Ziva leaned forward so that the three of them were huddled together. “Disneyland,” he responded in a stage whisper. “What?!” Tali shouted so loudly that Ziva and Tony both became concerned that they would never regain hearing in the ears closest to their daughter, “Do you mean it?!” Tony sat back and smiled, “Of course, kiddo.” “I can’t believe it,” Tali said, backing away, “I can’t believe it. I’ve gotta go tell Pikachu.” As their daughter ran off, Ziva chuckled. Her partner looked up at her from where he was still sitting on the floor, “I think we did a pretty good job with this present.”

------------------------

Even as the morning faded, Tali continued walking on air, still in disbelief that she was going to Disneyland in a few days. However, this thought did not stop her from fully enjoying their other stops. Her fun at the drum museum did not do any favors to her parents’ ears that she had already damaged over breakfast. After leaving the gardens of the Imperial Palace, she held her father’s hand as they followed Ziva through the streets of Nihonbashi. The little girl looked up in awe at the unfamiliar sights around her while Tony looked at his partner in awe at the ease with which she could navigate an unfamiliar city. Tali was not really paying attention as they entered a building and took an elevator up, but as the doors slid open, her eyes landed on something and she gave a theatrical gasp. “Daddy!” she said, yanking on Tony’s arm, “It's Pikachu!”

“I can’t believe I got to get my picture taken with Chef Pikachu!” Tali said happily as they left the shopping center, new Chef Pikachu toy tucked away in her backpack for safekeeping, “Lily is going to be so jealous of me when I show her. I need to buy her a souvenir! Ima, we need to go back to the Pokemon store!” Ziva laughed at the girl’s verbalized thoughts, “Ahava, there will be many more places to get Lily a gift. Do not worry, we will find something.” Tali nodded, taking her mother’s hand this time, as they made their way back to the train station.

--------------------------------------

“Where are we going next?” Tali asked as they rode the train back from Mt. Takao. Ziva shrugged, “I am not sure. We’re going somewhere that your father chose.” “Ima,” Tali said leaning into her mother’s side, “wasn’t it funny when the monkey took all of Daddy’s food?” Ziva laughed and Tony looked up from his map and narrowed his eyes. “Laugh it up, Zee-vah,” he teased, “see if I ever save you from hungry macaques.”

“What the hell, DiNozzo?” Ziva hissed under her breath as they stood in front of a blank wall with only a small sign, a lamp, and a wooden door, “I thought we were going to have dinner ‘somewhere special.’” “Just wait,” he said with a wink, leading Tali up to the door and pushing it open to reveal a small room. As Ziva entered, the maître d' clapped his hands and a small door popped open, revealing a person dressed in all maroon with only their eyes showing. Tali’s eyes grew wide and she looked up at Tony, “Is that a real ninja?” The ninja-cum-waiter and Tali led the way through a narrow maze until they arrived at their table, at which time, he sent Tali on a mad search for the hidden ninja call button. Tony grinned like the Cheshire Cat through the entire experience while Ziva tried to not show him how amused she was at his scheme. Once their food had arrived and Tali was busy playing with her toy ninja sword, Ziva looked across the table at her partner. “Did you pick this restaurant just so that you could make more ninja jokes?” she asked, raising her eyebrows. “Now, come on, Ziva, why would I do that?” he said, smiling into his soup. “And you saw the prices on the menu before booking this?” she added. His grin turned into a full-on smirk, “I am very committed to my art.” She could only roll her eyes.

After they left the ninja restaurant, snapping a picture of Tali in her ninja headband with their ninja waiter on the way out, they headed once more into the streets of Tokyo. They ended up in a Hello Kitty store and another Pokemon shop before they actually arrived at their intended destination. Tony was fairly certain that all the school supplies Tali would need between now and college were currently stuffed into his and Ziva’s backpacks as they rode an elevator to the 350th floor of the Tokyo Skytree. While Tali and Ziva looked out at the city, Tony purchased tickets for them to go even higher up, which required another elevator ride that Tali was all too happy to take. After they got off the elevator, the problem became keeping up with Tali as she dragged them along the ramp to the highest point. Just as her parents would start to get a good view, the little girl would spot something just ahead and insist that they keep going. “What can I say, the kid’s very goal-oriented,” Tony joked, winking at Ziva as Tali urged him to hurry up.

Once they reached the top, Tali finally stopped for a moment. She all but pressed herself against the walls to look out over the lights of the city in awe. Tony stood beside her, “What do you think, kiddo? As good as the Eiffel Tower back home?” Tali’s eyes never left the window as she responded, “It’s better.” “Better?” Tony questioned, looking from Tali to Ziva who couldn’t tear her eyes from their daughter, “How is it better?” “It’s so much taller, Daddy,” Tali said, “And the lights go on forever.” Tony shrugged, “Yeah, the city is pretty big, isn’t it?” Ziva put an arm around Tony and leaned against him, “It is the largest metro in the world, you know?” “Mhm,” Tony responded, noncommittally, “I’m just happy that I found somewhere in the world where you and I are on the same level, linguistically.” “Ha!” Ziva barked, “My love, you and I will never be on the same level, linguistically.” Tony huffed, “Oh come on, Ziva, just because you’re not that great at English doesn’t mean you have to put yourself down like that.” She swatted his arm and chuckled.

Eventually, they tore Tali away from the windows and made their way down to the 340th floor, where she soon found a new favorite thing-- the deck’s glass floor. They watched their daughter walking around on the floor, looking down on the city below her, and talked. “You know, I’ve thought about proposing to you on top of the Eiffel Tower,” Tony said. Ziva didn’t look at him, but responded, “That is such a movie thing to do.” “Are you telling me that you’d say ‘No’?” “I’m telling you that you could do better.” “So if I proposed to you here?” “Are you?” “Well, I didn’t bring the ring with me.” She turned her head to look at him, “But you have a ring?” He scratched the side of her head, avoiding looking at her, “I’ve had a ring for eight years.” “Tony,” she said in a heavy voice barely above a whisper. Tony turned his head and looked at her shyly. She turned her hand to hold his, continuing to look at her. “You didn’t really answer my question,” he said. She responded, “You didn’t answer mine either.” He cracked a smile, “Now that’s not fair, I did ask first.” “Remind me of what your question was,” she said with a small smile. “Will you marry me?” Her smile grew, actually showing her white teeth now, “Yeah.” “That’s not quite the big, romantic answer I thought I would get,” he teased. “Well,” she said, smile turning to a smirk, “that wasn’t quite the big, romantic proposal I thought I would get.” “We’ve never done things the way people would expect,” Tony shrugged. “This is true,” she said, turning back to watch Tali. “Besides, there’s time for big, romantic gestures when I actually give you the ring, huh?” “Having two separate proposals would be far from the most unusual part of our relationship.” He laughed dryly, “That’s the truth.”

The return to their hotel was uneventful, with the exception of stopping to pick up crepes for an evening snack. Tony smiled at Ziva’s subtle pressure on Tali to get her preferred flavor, knowing that she would end up eating the majority of the pastry once her daughter tired of it. Little moments like that helped Tony to know that Ziva was really settling into her position in their little family. Once they returned, she set to helping Tali get ready for bed while he checked their plans for the next day.

“Everything looking alright?” she asked, sneaking up behind him as he worked. He jumped only a little this time, responding, “Looking good. Just needed to return a couple emails. Kiddo in bed?” Ziva nodded, “She was exhausted. We had a big day today.” He smiled warmly, “We’ve got another big day tomorrow.” “And you… meant what you asked me earlier?” Ziva asked, almost shyly. For a moment, he considered playing dumb and asking her to clarify her question, but seeing the way she was looking at her feet convinced him to do otherwise. He reached out for her hand, holding it in his and tugging to draw her closer. She looked up at him, “I absolutely meant it, Ziva. All I want for the rest of my life is to make you and Tali happy. I want to protect you guys and… I mean, being a dad is the greatest thing to ever happen to me, but I’ve gotta admit that being your husband would be right up there with it.” She smiled again, the bashful, youthful smile from before. He tugged her down and pressed a kiss to her lips.

I love playing Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild a HUGE amount, but there is one thing I absolutely HATE about it.

And that thing is:

The fact that it's a minefield of distractions!

Seriously, this thing is like ADHD central!!

I was playing tonight after dinner, so about 6:30, 7pm, when suddenly...

BLINK

And it's 10:30pm and I have a whole lot of stuff to do tomorrow before my friend's birthday party!!!

Don't get me wrong, it's absolutely gorgeous, but I keep looking for shrine after side quest after treasure and I'm in the middle of getting the shock arrows from the Lynel on Mt Ploymus to defeat Divine Beast Vah Ruta and I keep thinking of new ways to get more hearts and better weapons and more stamina and — oh, look, a horse! And we're near the captured memories!

This has been a brief rant about Zelda: BOTW, which is one of the most incredible games in existence, but one that I am not sure I can play on my own steam...

Miraculous Tales Chapter 11 - PG19

Sometimes a little sweetness goes a long way to temper the vinegar within.

A tale of how Chloe’s many false starts in life were just the beginning to a real redemption of heart and hero.

Chloes worries torment her as she enlightens Luka to her reputation, and the way she knows she is seen by others...

Chapter 1 - Chapter 2 - Chapter 3 - Chapter 4 - Chapter 5 - Chapter 6 - Chapter 7 - Chapter 8 - Chapter 9 - Chapter 10 - Chapter 11

How are you liking MT: VaH so far? Favorite part/scene?

I think the scene where Chloe is struggling to get her crutch back might be my favorite scene

Map below of Malice Pools!

Slightly larger here. I took this from a datamining map here. (Please look at it some of the file name objects are amazing. Eventide Island’s filename is Naked Island.)

So there’s like, two categories I’d give pools of Malice: permanent and conditional. Permanent being the spots above that either can’t be cleared or return every blood moon. Conditional being that, once cleared, they’re gone; see: Naydra and the Divine Beasts. The map above shows permanent malice pools.

Permanent Malice:

North Lomei Labyrinth

Tabantha Tower/Nero Hill

Coliseum

South Lomei Labyrinth

Bottomless Swamp

Hyrule Castle

Akkala Citadel

Conditional Malice:

Vah Ruta (East Reservoir)

Vah Rudania (Death Mountain Peak)

Vah Naboris (East Barrens)

Vah Medoh (Lake Totori/Rito Village)

Naydra (Mt. Lanayru/Spring of Wisdom)

Kesah di MTs Ali Maksum

Well, gua ada sedikit goresan di hari senin dini hari pukul 1:02 WIB ini. Tadi pagi hari Ahad gua dikasih setumpuk map berwarna coklat berisikan lembar jawaban essay Mapel Fiqh.

Pssst, kita flasback dlu ke belakang awal mula gua bisa ngampul mapel ini, jadi waktu gua dapet jadwal piket gua disamperin ama Waka. Pengajaram gua ditawarin tuh suruh badal (ganti) pak Agus Qushairi yg tiba² resign, alhasil dengan ditodong gtu, sebenarnya gua agak nolak

"Maaf pak saya ga expert sama Fiqh, background saya sastra Arab"

"Gapapa bu, cuma sebulan ini aja kok"

Singkat cerita gua gantiin pak Agus yg tsk lain adalah suami mba Cikmah temen pondok satu rayon Q6. Dalam sebulan itu gua ngajar tentang shalat jamak dan qashar, shalat sunnah muakkad dan ghairu muakkad dengan mengacu pada buku jadul yg terdapat di perpus Mts Alma. Well, diakhir bulan anak² minta kisi² buat ujian, nah disitu kebingungan muncul dan awal perkara ini dimulai. Gua kasih kisi² A-Z, dan anak² meneyetujui dan mematuhi. Setelah KBM resmi ditutup, anak2 bersiap untuk mengikuti PAT, kejanggalan mulai gua rasain sebab sampai H- sekian ujian gua ga dapat konfirmasi atau koordinasi buat nyerahin soal yg kudu gua bikin, gua diem pihak MTs juga diem. Jadilah diem² bae! Dan lu tau apa yg terjadi, pas gua ngawas anak2 pada protes sehingga gua kudu bikin klasifikasi dadakan, mereka bilang dan merasa kecewa kalo ujiannya benar² tdk ada sama sekali pelajaran dan kisi² yg gua kasih kemaren. O My God, dan ternyata benar, gua ngerasa bersalah gua liat soalnya bener aje, isinya ga ada sama sekali materi yg gua kasih ke mereka. And the fact adalah bahwa Bu Bintun lah yg berinisiatif semena-mena menyerahkan soal ujian tahun kemaren. What the illness structure! Kok bisa? Akhirnya gua muring² sebab gua ga ngerasa bikin soal tapi dipasrahkan buat ngoreksi soal essay, pertama org yg kena muntab gua adalah mba cikem selaku istrinya pak Agus Qushairi, kedua adalah pak agus, terus gua muring² ke pak Aziz, dan terkahir mba Aray yg kasih gua map coklat ini, tapi setelah itu mba Arat berhasil nenangin gua

"udah vah, kasih aja semuanya 30 terus tambahin sana pilihan gandanya"

"Huftt, baiklah.. Jadi aku nih yg koreksi!"

Sesaat kami mengobrol dengan rasa dongkol yg masih bercokol, ngbrol ngalor ngidur dan curcol suka duka ngajar di Mts Alma, sampai pada kebijakan pemerintah lah, kebijakan pihak Mts lah, guru² yg sepuh dan harus di upgrade, program unggulan bahasa yg ga jelas dan kurangnya tenaga pendidik. Whats kurang? Hemm. Mb ara jga bilang sbnernya guru itu banyak program baru tapi anak²nya yg ga respect dan ga mau buat jalaninnya, sama kek pemerintah Indonesia udah pnya program bagus kayak bank sampah, tapi emang masyarakat Indonesianya aja yg belum siap ngejalaninnya, beda sma Jepang ug udahdilatih disiplin dari orok shgga terbiasa dan kebawa ampe gede.

Well, terkahir pada sesi mengingatkan, gua ngingetin mba aray buat buru² rampungin al qurannya, ngingetin mau sampe kapan di Q6 aja?, mb Aray itu malas! Dan dia ketawa, soalnya gua jga malas mba. Terus doi jg bilang kalo doi ga suka kalo slama ini doi ngajar di alma dikatakan sebagai profesi padhal doi itu sejatinya ngabdi! Titik.

Sungguh banyak pelajaran yg bener² bisa gua petik dari semua ini, tentang bagaimana berkoordinasi itu sangat penting. Penting banget! Wa syawirhum fiil amri, dan beemusyawarahlah kalian dalam segala permasalahan. Hem, akhirnya yg dikorbankan anak² yg sudah belajar tapi ujian yg keluar 180° berbeda dnwgan materi yg diajarkan. Bukan anak² aja, gua selaku badal selama sebulan, merasa bener2 bersalah. Hiks. Maafim mb opa ya aanak2.

Krapyak, senin 13 Mei 2019
