Tagged by @ceph-the-ghost-writer ! Thank you :D

Tagging : @isabellebissonrouthier, @tales-from-nocturnaliss, @queerlilchinchin, @jezifster and open tag ! If you feel like doing this game, do it !

Words I was given : Borrow, Beg, Steal, Manage.

Words I'm giving you : Spiral, Sheer, Cold, Fur.

As usual, I'll be picking around in all of my files, because I'm Like That, and I'll be adding at the end of each passage where they're from.

BORROW

"The wizard turned again to his own work, trying not to stare at the other too much.

This continued for a few days, generally for some hours in the morning, and a few in the afternoons. With permission, he borrowed some books, stating that he’d rather be able to work elsewhere as well. What the prince was doing when not in the wizard’s tower was a mystery, and Velial certainly didn’t want to know. It was almost a week after he started reading, when he was done with the books, that Maran started asking questions." – How the wizard got a lizard

BEG

"He trembled when the sword moved, held by hands he could not see, and begged when it brushed over his chest. The bloody, deformed wolven face drew closer to his, spit and icy water and blood dripping down, the blurry, blue eyes unable to give him a single clue about whether this creature could feel anything.

– Beg again, General, said a voice he had not thought he would ever hear again. Beg and maybe I will consider freeing you.

His own words, thrown back at him a thousand years later. His words that he knew had been lies back then, that he knew were lies now, but he begged anyway. The wolf’s half open mouth twitched, grinned, a nightmare of teeth and cold, and let out a laugh, garbled parody of warmth and humanity. His ears hurt, icy pressure building up, until the sword plunged into his chest, narrowly missing his heart, filling his lungs with blood." – Winter's Rage

STEAL

...surprisingly, none, in any of the WIP files I have. I'll just give you two different ones for "manage" because I have like. A LOT of instances. lmfao

MANAGE

"Anne struggled a little, coughing up some dirt to try to reply something. It tasted bad.

– Aw, you want to defend yourself ?

– What the fuck, she managed to spit out.

Her speech was completely garbled by the dust, but it seemed like Atropa understood anyway." – Meet Cute :3 (Anne/Atropa) [yes that's literally the file's name.]

"How long had it been there, waiting ? How many hours had she devoted to actually doing something useful for both of them while he was useless in his tower, failing over and over at making spells of his own that did not even manage to dampen the effects of the Emperor’s powers ? How easy was it, after replicating the strings, to figure out how the rest of the puppeteering worked, to stop possession from happening ?" – A Realization

Tagged by @isabellebissonrouthier, thank youu :D

Tagging : @jezifster, @ceph-the-ghost-writer, @tales-from-nocturnaliss (with no pressure if you don't feel like it!) + open tag !

Words I was given : Hope, Hell, Hunger, Happy, Hunk

Words I'm giving you : Color, Dull, Sun, Average, Mellow

Okay let's go ! As always I'm just grabbing stuff from wherever. I am 100% sure I won't find hell nor hunk because I don't use these words but i'm going to check just for the sake of being thorough.

HOPE

"Realva guard your steps, may Ninava find you a sweet future.

To them, getting out of the cell was as good as a death sentence. And so those who had not yet been identified huddled together, in their shared anonymity, the last remnant of themselves that they could hide from his might for just a little more time. They sat there, silently sharing the last shards of their broken hope." – Spinning a Web

HELL love how I said I probably wouldn't find it and IMMEDIATELY got proven wrong

"– Unless I am mistaken, she said slowly, you and your twin were Cenaldir’s sons… which we are told in history classes in Vano since we are children… and when you inherited the throne you discovered that not only you had your father’s powers, but also the ability to swap vessels at will… is that not right ?

The Emperor stared at her, as if waiting for the punchline of the joke to come, but there wasn’t any. His eyes then left her face as he tried to understand what the hell she was talking about, until he exclaimed :

– Cenaldir never had twins ! Sons, a couple times, for sure. No, Lohsevaar and Malvern fully were king Erven’s sons." – A New Vessel

HUNGER

"Maran barely realized that to the other one, something seemed deeply wrong. He hadn’t noticed the slow creeping of harshness in his voice, the anger in his smiles, the deep void behind his eyes. Velial still remembered him as a cheerful, kind man – yes, one who rightfully considered the wizard an asshole, but kind nonetheless.

Now the prince looked like he was barely alive, clothes too large for a frame shrunken by exhaustion and hunger, hair too long and matted. He seemed diminished.

– So ? When can we start ?" – How the wizard got a lizard

HAPPY you get two extracts for this one since i don't have the last word at all

"She lowered the gun and he immediately went to follow Alice, all too happy to be away from it. She nonchalantly tucked it away in her large coat before turning to a bewildered Gabriel, still on the ground.

– I thought you were a fire mage ? she asked.

– …getting a history of magic and draconic history double degree. I don’t fight… much." – Gabriel and his roommate

"– I just do that sometimes. It’s fine.

– It’s not.

Next thing he knew, she was kneeling over him, and he wasn’t quite sure when exactly she’d gotten onto his bed. Any other time, he’d been happy about it, but right now…" – Lumeria and the Emperor

NOT FOUND : Hunk

Velial Telren, at age 21, is already part of the elite of Nesean wizards.

He wishes to study spatial magic. Has wished so his entire life. He is incredibly competitive and skilled and works relentlessly towards his goals.

Spatial magic, however, is not a field open to just anyone. It is highly volatile and dangerous, and, crucially, only a court wizard can do actual work on the subject outside of theory. And theory is good, certainly, but it's not what's going to bring leaps forwards, at least according to Velial.

So he works to become the court wizard.

He is told, years before he's a wizard, that it's impossible. No one in their right mind wants to become court wizard unless they have some kind of strong attachment to the royal family. He shrugs and gets back to work.

Velial Telren, at age 21, is the youngest court wizard Neseah has ever known.

He's been better than anyone else on technical, theoretical, and practical tests. He has lists and lists of ideas, of theories to protect not only the royal family but the kingdom itself, and despite barely knowing them he gains their trust incredibly fast.

And so he asks to take the oath.

King Nelvaren and queen Nakaveh are hesitant despite their trust in the young man - he is only twenty-one. Taking an oath like this is no small undertaking. It would, quite literally, weigh on him for his entire life unless it was broken by a royal or by his own skill and willpower - something incredibly hard to do even for the best wizards.

But he assures them this is what he has wanted his entire life and they relent.

Velial Telren, at age 21, is the sole expert on spatial magic in Neseah who is allowed practical experiments as well as theoretical.

And he shares his findings with the rest of academia and participates in lectures and discourse and seminars.

He's bound to the royal family of Neseah for his entire life, and he considers this duty worth it.

However, Velial Telren has a problem.

At the height of twenty-one years of age, the oldest he's ever been, the smartest he's ever been, the most knowledgeable he's ever been...

Velial has beef with a 14 year old with too much wits for his own good.

#this post got long LOL #my writing #velial telren #the fall of neseah #maran of neseah #(but like only mentioned at the end) #this is so fucking funny to me #you devote your life to a family. but you can't stand their 14 year old #there's a few complicated things at play here tbh #including the fact that unlike his own family; the royal family isn't particularly encouraging Maran to be the bestest at what he's doing #they've learned their lesson with Laevna; Renia and Elyzen #and all of the siblings basically band around the younger idiot and go nuh huh nope he's not getting pressured into shit #and so Maran just does whatever he wants and it happens to b magic #and Velial is So so seething by the fact that this kid with clear talent and who's so smart is Not the competitive type #'where is your ambition!!! where is your drive to win!!!' #'i made a construct today mr telren :)' #incredible. #hey velial uh. wanna unpack some things about being a gifted kid and pushed to your limits always #and believing it should also how the world works for everyone
