    Summary

    “-iren. This is Requiem, hailing on all frequencies. Come in, Siren,” Obi-Wan Kenobi, calls out to you through the comm. His voice, discernible to you, even through the static, echoes in your head.
    The shock locks your muscles in place. You know you’re taking too long. You need to warn him. Now. He can’t land here. Tell him. Move, speak, dammit, anything.
    Answer him. ANSWER HIM.
    “Siren, here,” you gasp out at last. “Don’t land, Requiem. I repeat, don’t land.” The connection is too quiet, no ambient interface, no background whitenoise.
    You blindly stumble outside and scan the sky, looking for the telltale glint of a ship streaking through the atmosphere. Praying that it’s there. Praying that it’s not. Praying that you’re dreaming. Praying that he’s here.
    You spot it at last, cutting down through the clouds to the east, heading toward the same patch of woods where you crash landed.
    “Requiem, do you read me?” you shout at the ship, even though the microphone is a few centimeters from your mouth. “REQUIEM DO NOT LAND.”

    Obi-Wan comes to rescue you on a mission gone wrong and winds up just as trapped as you are. Can you survive until you're rescued without revealing your feelings?

    Summary

    Kotallo has been surprised by the way Aloy will brush her fingers against his from time to time, or how she will sit down next to him at a campfire with barely a finger’s length distance between them. He hasn’t known what to make of it; has been careful to not initiate any contact with her.

    Summary

    * ON HIATUS. WILL BE COMPLETED ❤️ *

    “Would you like to come on a ride with me? See what it feels like up there?”

    For them, it starts with Sunwing rides, and evolves into much more. Where there is pain, there is healing. In the darkness, there's always a crack. That's how the light gets in.

    -- A story about flying, falling, and letting go.

    (Angst with a happy ending)

    Summary

    Pain, though slightly dulled since her last bout of consciousness, pulses through her chest like a raging fire. She moves to sit up, the movement now causing her to be aware of the bandages wrapped precisely around her lower back, for blankets to cascade from her shoulders to pool gently into her lap.

    “You are…awake.”

    Kotallo’s demeanor, strong and sharp, falters when his voice cracks slightly on his last word.

    Summary

    The Nora tribe is the type to seek meaning in everything. To connect all that is to their All-Mother. And perhaps one of the largest parts of that is something they carry on themselves; their braids. Every braiding type, pattern, and bead added in had its own special meaning, all of them sacred in one way or another.

    That's why Varl was so surprised to walk in on an old Nora marriage ceremony of Kotallo braiding Aloy's hair.
