@runefactorynonsense sent: [ The wind around here has been pummeling my work and poor car today. Have a sappy windy prompt ]

The door was pushed shut in one decided flick of the wrist as she passed by, with steps taken almost as swiftly as the gale outside. A lone leaf swirled in, danced almost mockingly around her feet, before the sharp lock of the door cast a more comfortable quiet in the hall. Lynette gave the leaf a pointed, almost offended look, before her natural path took her away from the door she'd (well, rudely) taken from the Earthmate's hands. "The weather's only getting worse. Don't prove yourself a fool and go back out in that." She felt as though another gust, and rasp of a few branches, proved her point. "Work yourself to death tomorrow, instead. Meanwhile-" A hum in thought. A nod at some unshared thought. "Why not breakfast for dinner, unless you're forsaking the rights to those blueberries you so bravely rescued from the storm?"

Well! That was... startling to say the least. And it's a miracle that Raguna hadn't just walked into the door once Lynette had shut it in front of him. Wouldn't have been the first time he went on automatic like that... some embarrassment saved. A drop kept from the bucket. Small. But something!

"Ah- But I was just going to--" His words are locked away just as swiftly as the door was. He was not going to speak just yet, just as he was not going to work more just yet. Tomorrow... a pained look is passed outside the window. It had a strange air to it, like a moving painting that dipped and bowed from everything outside yielding to the whims of convection.

"Mmm..."

Whatever reluctance Raguna felt at the denial of completing unfinished tasks was quickly dispatched by shared thoughts from Lynette. It was as though an unseen stone had pricked at the window to his mind, something shared perhaps unwittingly. Why was it that damn Earthmate always seemed to know something others didnt? The smile, oh so familiar, graces his expression as he sets aside the work gloves and frustrations they created.

"That's a good idea. I like it! So with breakfast for dinner in mind... Would you rather I make blueberry pancakes. Or muffins? What do you like more, Lynette?" She is, of course, welcome to take however long she likes to divulge this sensitive information to the other. In the meanwhile he'll get to preparing bowls and other ingredients, the fresh berries getting a gentle wash in the sink.

Raguna turns after a moment of this, resting a similarly gentle gaze on the woman with a slight cant of the head. The weather outside was volatile, aggressive, but none of that permeated the walls of his home. In here, with this company, he was all but dismissive of whatever threat was poised. But who are we kidding? He wasn't worried about the storm to begin with.

Upsetting Lynette, however? Well we couldn't have that.

"And~ what else would you like to go with them? We'll need more than just that for dinner. Maybe some eggs? Hash browns?"

Welcome!

I am Margot, aka Margroot in various places on the internet. Full time worker with animals, sportsball lover, she/they if it matters to you~

I am much more active over on my fandom blog @runefactorynonsense , but I want to try and have a place to put some general art. Either OCs, random animals, or maybe some backgrounds. We'll see if a normal account can survive just chilling and not get overrun by bots if it's not the main. Fingers crossed.

I also don't tag things with like, subject or whatnot. OCs get their names tag, fanart will get maybe a ship or source material tagged- but I'm not too worried.

Thank you for stopping by!

send ‘i dare you to kiss...’ with a name and well || [ open ]

@shadowcatskey / @runefactorynonsense​ sent:  Why not. I dare Raguna to kiss Commander Lynette.

“Huh?" A voice on high has given Raguna a command that, once it’s seeped and taken root into his mind, the farmer can’t seem to ignore. Kiss Commander Lynette? He sets down the basket of materials he’d picked up just a moment ago, indigo gaze cast towards town square where the former Sechs agent was milling about. Adapting to life in Kardia has been difficult for her. Raguna can tell. It hadn’t been the smoothest process for him either. Earning the trust and blessing of the town, particularly for someone who had once been tasked with empowering the empire to conquer this quiet rural town, had been a process to say the least.

But anything was better than the alternative. Ethelberd. That mad tyrant. To think he was so brazen and disgusting to compel the woman to kill herself in repentance for her failure. It had set a fire in him in the past, one that was now burning with a different sort of emotion. Were his lips dry? Were hers soft?

“Miss Lynette!” Raguna calls out to the pinkette, about a pound of frogs bouncing around in his gut with the utterance of each word. This was usually so easy, talking with her had never been an issue before. The former military agent turns to regard the Earthmate, sizing him up and nearly freezing him in place with 

“Raguna.” The woman sizes him up in a moment with wine red eye. She doesn’t smile, and brow is furrowed. Did... did she know what he was going to do? “You look ... well. Is there something you needed of me?” Even this long after the incursion had been repelled and her station no longer having relevance she retained such a formal speech. It was a little scary, but also, in a way- endearing? He’s really thinking about this stuff now. The farmer laughs and rubs his neck, still approaching. Now she seems suspicious.

And for good reason.

“Sorry, Lynette. I just need to uhm--” The fellow warrior, to her credit, stands her ground as Raguna steps before her. Maybe she was just as curious about what all was happening as the farmer was about how it would go. Two different blends of awkward that finally come to a point as lips peck softly against each other. Now Lynette reacts properly. Recoiling away like she’d just been slapped. If her eye went any wider it would catch the sun like its own star.

“What in the hells was th-that for, mister Raguna?!” Had he poisoned her?! Some kind of belated comeuppance for removing his memories or assaulting his home? How long of a game had this naive little Earthmate been playing with her. Said Earthmate, meanwhile, is only thinking about how that kiss had felt. Which is to say... pretty good?

“Aha... ha.. er, well. Uh. It was because... I f.. felt like it. I think.”

Gods, the young man is such an awful liar she’s almost inclined to believe him when he says there’s no other reason. But by doing so wouldn’t that mean...? !!!

“I have somewhere else I must go. C-carry on with your day.” And with that, she storms off with a blaze on her features and a waver in her gaze. There was a lot to think about. For both of them.

RF Secret Santa 2020 - [Fic] - “Radiance Across the Sky”

aaaay yo @runefactorynonsense  I was your @runefactorysecretsanta!... and the anon who asked about playing RF1 for the first time.  Because you had RF1 & 2 high on your wish list, so I took to playing RF1, which i’ve owned for years and never started.  And because I love RF2 so much myself, I had to combine them... hopefully I did an acceptable job!  Let me know if you have an ao3 account or not, and I’d be glad to officially gift it to you there! So here we have Kyle & Cecilia bringing Aaron and Aria to Kardia for a holiday celebration, reuniting with some familiar faces along the way! >>Read “Radiance Across the Sky” on ao3!<< Cecilia brings her family to Kardia to celebrate the holidays, where she not only reflects on old traditions, but begins new ones.

There's a lot of people out in the world who, upon hearing the story between Raguna and Lynette, would find his answers... curious at the least. Trust? Loyalty? To a former enemy? One who sought your destruction? Yes. Because she took the chance that was offered.

She didn't have to do that. But Raguna is certainly glad that she did. The procession of days has only proven that to be more and more the case. That Lynette is a trustworthy person. And someone who is right for Kardia.

Though... seeing the woman in casual settings makes him feel a different way. But he's still coming to realization what all that might mean...

it was raguna's birthday :: open

@runefactorynonsense sent: [ Happy Birfday 🎉 Nervous Lynguna as a treat ] -- This was not like those ambushes of old, but neither did she have the gall (gall. Not confidence, she most certainly did not lack the latter, hm) to approach such a sensitive topic directly. The Earthmate's birthday? How easy it would be to slip up, raise a brow, comment that the day he'd chosen was w-- No, NO. She would let him have this. And to acknowledge it, given that his patterns were almost equally regular, even on holidays, she... might have taken advantage of those afternoon hours where he wasn't home. A small intrusion (funny how that felt so invasive despite an unlocked door and offered friendship), a gift left on that counter, to be found at a later time, with a note that sat on top of a small basket of apple filled pastries; "Pardon the intrustion. These were left over, and you have occasion for them. And take half a day off every so often; It's good advice. ~L"

It wasn't the first time Raguna had seen Lynette's handwriting, nor did he imagine it would be the last. It carried a certain formal air to it that differed from the way the former military woman carried herself. Same dignity but well... who could say if she was or wasn't more stiff in person? Just mulling on the topic and comparison proves enough to lift the corner of Raguna's lip as his gaze pores over the words.

He appreciates the gift left, of course, but something about the letter touches him deeper. Further than empty platitudes, there was something else to be found between the lines and the sharp scratches of a nib against the clean surface of the paper. What exactly that was... Raguna wasn't really sure.

"But are these really leftovers? Seem pretty fresh to me... and what did she use the rest of them for to begin with? It's not as though there was a festival." A quandary that wouldn't be spared much effort from the Earthmate, instead choosing to sample the gift. Very tasty. The apples were perfectly tender, perhaps the pastry could use a little bit more work. Still, amazing start... Had she made them herself?

That'll be another question added to the list for when he hunts her down later. She will, after all, be properly thanked for the gesture. Perhaps he'll make something she likes to show the appreciation. This generous behavior from Lynette obviously needs to be encouraged, right?

The letter, however, will be tucked away for safe keeping. The farmer looks outside where the infinite amount of work and growth of a farm beckoned. He thinks. A glance back to the nightstand. And then, with a shrug.

Raguna decides to sit down and read a book instead.

your affection :: closed

send a symbol to share some affection with my muse

@runefactorynonsense sent: Because the Lynguna image is too good; noogie 🤜 + the headlock needed to do it, because why show affection like a normal person? That's far too much to ask.

Sometimes Raguna forgets, and not entirely because of those few times that the Earthmate has trounced her in combat- Lynette isn’t exactly a pushover when it comes to strength. Especially when she gets a surprise jump on the farmer. Not hard to do. Hopefully she doesn’t realize and make a pattern of it… well. Either way. Raguna is suddenly seeing the world from a different view. Bright clear skies replaced by darkness from her—

Wait, how did he get into this situation again?! Kind of begs the question when the usually aloof woman has such a firm grip, holding him so close to her as her other hand drills into his noggin. All accompanied by light laughter and a cheer that some would say was uncharacteristic. Sans the usual cackling there’s perhaps something more charming in her voice. Of course this is all defused by the noogie that is like to pull some hairs from his head, but!!! Something about thanking Raguna for doing something?

“Ahhh!” Nevertheless. Raguna finds himself struggling with more than just the surprise. Her swords have hard time getting through his guard but maybe wrestling is more the forte. Newly discovered talent. A tool to add to her repertoire to keep the Earthmate in check. Perhaps both of them have to watch their egos. “Ow ow ow, I get it or you’re welcome or—whatever I need to say to have you let me go!”

Unfortunately, it takes one slipped foot from the usual stalwart farmer to have his posture give out. Where once she had him in a hook now they were both collapsed on the soft grass of the field outside of the cave that had been freshly explored. With. The farmer on top of the former lieutenant. Talk about taking a situation and making it worse, right?

If Raguna had pulled himself off of her any faster he could have launched himself up to Whale Island.

“Sorry! . . . sorry, um, let me help you up-“ Save face save face save face.

symbol scenarios so send :: s'open

send an emoticon for my muse to find yours...

@runefactorynonsense sent: ✮- Stargazing 👀 (Lynguna)

Mt. Gigant serves as a fantastic place to gather items related to the wind element. For forging and other crafting, you couldn't want for more outside of the monsters simply handing the things to you instead of having to send them back to the Forest of Beginnings. But Raguna can't exactly talk himself out of every scenario, and it's too late for that kind of thing anyway. But the walk back to town would be good nonetheless.

Gather a few flowers on the way back that had been growing wild.

The unexpected find was... Lynette? A frequent traveller around town to be sure but Raguna doesn't often expect to find her near the caves or up in the wilderness. They aren't exactly her element. But then, was her element even something that could be found in Kardia? In Norad? It had yet to be seen. The townspeople have worked to make accommodations but political subjugation and frozen temperatures are best not put on the table.

"Lynette? Are you... stargazing?" Sightseeing was out of the question, given her gaze was up oh wait she snapped around oh crap she's-- "Wait! It's just me! Raguna!" Hands shoot up defensively as her instincts whirl into focus. A shade of darkness masking her features before she relents and with a huff sheathes the daggers and turns away.

"You surprised me. Don't skulk around it's hardly fitting for you. Nor are you good at it. Just lucky." Again. Raguna frowns at her chastising, but at least he's able to relax again.

"And you scared me. I wasn't expecting to find anyone up here this late at night. But if you're looking to see the stars, I can't think of a much better place. Must be something, huh?" Raguna offers the fighter a comforting smile, egging her on to some discussion as he steps next to her near the ridge.

"...there's differences of course. What you can see. And what you can't. More of the former really. But this view is..." Raguna lifts a brow as her voice trails, seeking descriptors that would be neutral rather than overly saccharine or endearing. "...interesting. I'm sure you have silly meanings for the arrangements. Names and what have you rather than navigational assistants."

"You mean constellations. We sure do. When I spent that time in Trampoli I learned a lot about it. There was a wizard from the city that was visiting with her grandparents. That star over there, for example." Raguna points up. "If you follow it up like this. And then there. That's the hairpin constellation."

Raguna looks to Lynette with a smile, but she seems hardly convinced beyond it being just a cluster of lights in the sky. Scientific anomalies and distant lands that would remain safe from whatever chaos their people, or Earthmates might wrought upon them.

"Hm. So. Why the flowers?"

"What?! Uh-- I was just gathering em since I was up here. No real reason I just like picking stuff up, you know?!"

"Picking stuff up..."

"Geh-"

Whatever situation was starting to develop, consider it summarily defused- another scenario the Earthmate isn't talking themselves out of...

@runefactorynonsense sent: 🎄 I just think LynGuna would be CUTE 🎄 our muses decorate a christmas tree

Raguna is grateful for a lot of things this year. The weather had been pleasant and the storms merciful. Harvests plentiful. Company generous. The season's cheer is affluent in his veins and, right now most of all-

He's glad he's not afraid of heights.

Where did the mayor get a Christmas tree this big?! It's so tall! It went without saying that he'd be recruited to help set it up. The precarious laying of the ladder his only respite as the bristly green branches reach around as if to hug the Earthmate. It wouldn't be the most pleasant place to end up if he fell, but better than the ground. He's decorating from the top and working his way down, with the help of...

...help...

"A little help would be nice, Lynette. You said that's what you wanted to do, didn't you? Then next... I need a few more blue bulbs?" Careful words compliment careful steps as he descends the rungs to where he'd be in range of the foreigner's reach. If she were more agreeable.

"Hardly a pleasing choice of color. The reds and golds are much better."

Raguna sighs.

"Yeah, but the idea is to have all sorts of colors in the tree. We need to put up the other ornaments and decorations too."

"But they're so gaudy. Is this how Noradians 'celebrate' the season? Really? By throwing an entire bag of baubles onto a tree?"

"It sure is." Raguna chuckles, a mask over playfully rolling eyes before his hand reaches out patiently. "That's the great thing about it though. Everyone can decorate their tree however they want. But this one... it's going to have everything."

He can hear the click of the woman's tongue, even if he can't see it behind the wool scarf that covers her mouth.

"I'd rather it have more red and gold."

"Lynette?"

"What?"

"How about we grab up some more ornaments. Red and gold ones. And decorate your own tree after we're done with this one for the festival?"

...there's something else masked by that scarf, after Raguna's words. Arguably just as complimenting to her ornament choice as anything else. He doesn't notice that either, for better or worse. And Lynette does her best to keep it from being betrayed by other bits of body language.

"...Fine. Hurry up and take these then."

Hey! What do you think you're doing?! Don't say stuff like that I've ironically crafted an unapproachable image on this website and this could damage that honed rep, y'know. Guess you'd know since we've managed to meet up a couple times now. Know that the same sentiment is lobbed right back across the parking lot to you, Margot. It's been great. You've got so much energy.

Seriously tho- Small world, like what the hell.

As always, glad we're all having fun. Holidays have everyone busy but hopefully the good cheer carries us over the new year hurdle into the next bout of shenanigans- writing or otherwise. I'm having a blast in the group, too. And love getting asks and enabling your many many art prompts. (your ask should get answered tomorrow and is only going to do more of that just fyi)

Dr. Love thinks that a relationship between Raguna Glen and Lynette Laurent has a very good chance of being successful, but this doesn't mean that you don't have to work on the relationship. Remember that every relationship needs spending time together, talking with each other etc.

Wait. That's. That's surprisingly high, actually? Raguna is taken off guard, confused blinks staggering what was quickly becoming a suspiciously delayed reaction.

"That's ... well, wouldn't a lot of people's relations can work out if you put in the effort and spend time together? I... wouldn't mind that. But Lynette always seems so frustrated when she's around me."
