[nospaces] [attr="class","moonchild jay1"] [attr="class","inner"] [attr="class","textbody"] "... theodore?"[break][break] he pauses, eyes of ice lifted up to tearful gold. [break][break] "i know a man with that name," he said, in a way that his voice doesn't sound like his own. removed from him. speaking in a voice that was soft and tender. "in some ways, he was like a father to me."[break][break] the father i never wanted. the father i never had. [break][break] THEO BECKETT meant more to him than words could possibly express. [break][break] because for all that he was, THEO BECKETT meant rocket, and rocket meant family. [break][break] "he tried to kill me once, but, " his voice hitches on an emotion. "he keeps me anchored — away from —"[break][break] he glances at the hands that lay between them, frosted ice veins that threaten to burn.[break][break] "away from this."[break][break] his eyes flit towards her as she speaks of a word that he does not recognize, not right away. draconid. of course, jayden had read the reports of the rockets who'd looted through the morningstar estate. but it hadn't mentioned this. [break][break] he knew of the morningstars and the runes they held dear. but they were thought to be dead. [break][break] as thin as a sliver, his eyes widen, but only imperceptibly. impossible to notice unless you were trained to recognize the slightest changes in his demeanor. [break][break] like a lock sliding into a key, jayden slid away this piece of information away, just like he'd hidden such truths from illeana reyes about ting lu. it was instinctual. whether he wanted to or not. whether they were holding hands or not. [break][break] their palms were pressed together — but it was like holding your hand before a dragon's maw. [break][break] you never knew when those jaws might snap. [break][break] she cries and she sobs, and the tears of a life that had never been sweeps past him. tears don't dawn his face, for they are frozen by the very poison that ties him to her, but he feels the hurt like nothing else. he stares into her eyes of glimmering gold, and sees the agony, fresh like the wound of her teeth sinking into him, of the life that they could not have. [break][break] 'auntie freya! won't you teach me how to fly?'[break][break] "poison," he says, even-keeled, as his hands close around hers. gently, as though handling a fly. "is something we can learn to live with. learn to wield. sometimes..."[break][break] "poison can be power."[break][break] on his neck, shards of ice emerge like a dragon's scales, reflecting the blanket of stars that glimmer softly above. [break][break] taken by her sadness, by the inevitable pull that ignites them both, jayden allows her to take his hand and press it to her heart. he feels it beating beneath her flesh. how easy it would've been to thrust an icy dagger into her flesh then, to see her throat fill with blood. [break][break] to end her like they were meant to end. [break][break] "i will," he says instead, voice clear. "you deserve the death you want."[break][break] the death he wasn't allowed to want. [break][break] "i want... i want to be remembered. bury me in the ground or burn me into ash or forge me into a sword, i don't care, but just... just remember me."[break][break] "don't - " his voice hitched. "don't forget."[break][break] "don't let fern forget, either."[break][break] she knew them. he didn't know the connection they shared, either, but it hardly mattered now that they were on the cusp of war. [break][break] the hand she holds folds over her heart, brushing against the cusp of her throat, where oxygen inevitably fills her lungs. [break][break] "... we are nothing when we forget who we are."[break] [attr="class","oocnotes"] [attr="class","pkmn"] [attr="class","dashdash"] [attr="class","bottom"] [newclass=".jay1"] --accent:#836A7B!important; [/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild"]--accent:#FFB546;[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild"]width:400px; margin:0px auto; background: #222; border:solid 1px #232323; box-shadow:2px 2px 0px #333333, -2px 2px 0px #333333, 2px -2px 0px #333333, -2px -2px 0px #333333; border-radius:3px; position:relative;[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild b"]font:bold 13px/10px 'Poppins'; color:var(--accent);[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .textbody i"]font:italic 11px/15px 'Poppins'; border-bottom:1px solid #474747; color:var(--accent); letter-spacing:1px;[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .top"]background-color:var(--accent); background-image: url(https://image.ibb.co/cpf8Wc/flower_patt.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; height:50px; border-radius:5px 5px 0px 0px;[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .leftcolumn"]width:100px; padding:20px 20px 0px 20px; margin-top:10px; margin-right:30px; float:left; border-right:1px solid #1A1A1A;[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .leftcolumn .avatarimg img"]height:70px; width:70px; border: solid 9px #272727; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: -1px -1px 0px #232323, 1px -1px 0px #232323, -1px 1px 0px #232323, 1px 1px 0px #232323, 3px 3px 0px #303030, -3px 3px 0px #303030, 3px -3px 0px #303030, -3px -3px 0px #303030; filter:grayscale(1); [/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .pkmn"]margin-bottom:-50px; position:relative; z-index:99;[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .pkmn img"]border-radius:100px; background:#222; border:1px solid #1A1A1A; padding-bottom:7px; height:40px; margin-right:5px; transition:0.6s all;[/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .tag"]text-align:center; margin-top:-25px; margin-bottom:20px; } .moonchild .tag a { font:bold 15px/15px 'Poppins'!important; [/newclass] [newclass=".moonchild .oocnotes"] font-size:10px; padding-left:20px; text-align:left; } .moonchild .oocnotes b { color:var(--accent); [/newclass]
