((Mother Fucker))

sire-crownguard:

For a moment, his gaze darkened as he looked upon the woman, as though she had revealed something dark, a betrayal in her so few words. How often was he able to feel safe, to be reassured by others? to feel… like he must not be so afraid? Too long. Far too long. His hands trembled, twitching by his sides, motionless for a moment… but then the realization came to him, enough to almost dust his cheeks with red by his own assumption, by his own embarrassment that felt very hot beneath his skin.

No one would be that blunt unless they wished to be ripped to shreds.

And before he could question it, she answered him with her words. So she holds a grudge? He couldn’t blame her–while he held no true hatred for Darius, the two nothing more than the same man on different sides of the table, one a decade older, another a decade more foolish.

“Taliyah,” He grabbed one of her hands with both of his own, being far gentlerthan he needed to, but his expression unsteady as he tried to find the proper words to speak, mouth feeling dry as he struggled, “There are many things I’d like to say, but this is… not the place.” He let go, and instead stood up properly, spine rigid and hands moved behind his back. The more they spoke, and the longer they stayed, the more attention it’d bring, and the sooner she’d say something that would put her, and himself, in a position where he couldn’t feign not knowing, with that charming smile and those kind eyes to draw the burning stared of hatred and turn them to himself, and to gazes of envy and trust.

“You appear to be worse for wear as well. Do you have a place you are staying while in Demacia? I could also have a temporary living arrangement put in place as a…. apology for our less-hospitable people.”

“I’d prefer to be able to speak somewhere without prying eyes and ears.”

Taliyah  was  a  thicc  girl  with  a  thicc  skull ,  if  you  understand .  However ,  her  emotions  were  always  hyper  sensitive .  One  wrong  word  could  leave  her  thinking  for  a  while .  One laugh  at  the  wrong  time  could  break  her  dam .  Any  tone  of  voice  could  make  her  utterly  embarrassed -  which  is  how  she  earned  the  nickname  ‘cherry  girl’ .  And  a  cherry  girl  she  was .  

The  shuriman’s  face  turned  a  bright  red  as  she  glanced  back  up .  Okay . . .  So  he  doesn’t  hate  her .  Yet .  That’s  good ,  right ?  Right .  Taliyah  sent  him  a  nervous  smile .

“  Well . . .  Food  is  more  important  than  shelter .  I  had  a  room  last  night ,  but  that  is  a  couple  cities  over .  My  master  told  me  where  I  could  stay  and . . .  Train  without  him .  “  Taliyah  explained  this  as  best  as  she  could ,  trying  not  to  sound  like  an  absolute  idiot .  Wait ,  does  Garen  know  how  fast  she  can  travel ?  Probably  not .

Her  free  hand  reached  into  her  purse .  It  was  full  of  her  accessories ,  being  warned  that  having  floating  stones  around  you  wouldn’t  look too friendly  in  Demacia ,  and  a  leather  pouch  full  of  coins .

“  How  much  Silver  Serpents  would  it  be ? Demacia  uses  those ,  right ?  Or  was  it  Valors . . .  “  Her  voice  trailed  off ,  inspecting  the  hand  that  held  hers .  “  Your  hands  are  pretty .  And  big .  You  could  probably  grab  my  face .  “

For Taliyah:

𝓗𝓸𝓵𝓭𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓭𝓼

The gentle physical affection... Getting to subtly show your love to the world... Feeling that new puppy love no matter how long you've been together... You want a love that is sweet and gentle, where every date you go on feels like your first. You want to be showered in romantic gestures, to be praised and adored, for every moment to be worthy of saving in your internal scrapbook. You want every kiss to be a memory. Although an admirable goal, it is important to keep in mind that love is not always easy, and occasionally requires some effort. Although you should never endure abuse or neglect, it is normal for relationships to have bumps in the road; do not treat these bumps like mountains.

For Lexie:

'𝓘 𝓶𝓲𝓼𝓼 𝔂𝓸𝓾' 𝓽𝓮𝔁𝓽𝓼

Long nights full of yearning and fantasies... Intimate secrets you'd be embarrassed to say out loud... Passionately reuniting once again... You want a love that is desperate and passionate, you want someone that will make you feel like you’re living a romance novel. You want to feel the fire burning in your chest when you see them. You want every touch to feel like fireworks, and to discover something new about them every day. While this addicting fire can be fun to chase, try not to drop every lover once the flame seems to have died down. Sometimes the most intense burn comes from the fire you continue to kindle, and it is worth it to settle in front of a hearth.

obliviously flaunts hips. youre welcome

Taliyah tried her best to look away , but God . . . His hips really don't lie . "You're lucky I like you , " she muttered with a blush .

Hey! So, my dash is super, duper dead, so I’d appreciate it if you guys could do me a REALLY big favor!!

I made an Adventure Time AU and I'm happy. Tali is Fionna, because reasons, Ekko is Marshall, and Ez is probably Prince Gumball. Kinda wanna expand the AU but it's three am and I'm binging Adventure Time

@iixesha squeaked he grabs her bracelet and succs the red out of it. yummy

Taliyah is always a bit jumpy . Call it her daily battles , call it her weak spots , it is what it is . However , the adventurer was never ready for when the vampire king himself shows up for a bite .

Taliyah was training in her tree house . Axes being thrown , laughter at inappropriate times , all of that jazz . A knife was in Taliyah's hand when something touched her . . . Something c o l d . " Hiyah ! " She yelled , jabbing the knife into a random direction .

Tali looked around wildly , finally noticing her floating bracelet , it's ruby color slowly draining . With a huff , the weapon was lowered . " Ekko , what're you doing here , you creep . "

Noxian Taliyah should be illegal

She's so much fun to draw

" But you want to name him Ludacris . . . Baby , there are some boundaries . "

"Baby... Baby, I love you, but you CANNOT name the child."

" I let you name the first one, you PROMISED you'd let me name the second one, dammit. "

" The generals Darius and Swain , " Taliyah responded quickly . Two of the most feared men in Runeterra . . . Two of the three leaders of Noxus .

Taliyah's face showed no sign of a lie . Blunt was the best she could be sometimes . . . However , her serious expression quickly turned to shock then embarrassment at the realization of how it was phrased .

" W-What I mean is , General Darius refuses to fight me until I am able to bend this one stone . Apparently Demacia is famous for it — not that I like Noxus . " Taliyah was quick to explain what she had meant . Going around Demacia saying the two generals of Noxus sent you is basically a suicide mission !

" He ruined my life , so I wish to show him how . . . Displeased I am . However long that will take . " Once again , the mage grew nervous . Taliyah looked away from Garen , quite displeased with herself , before noticing how busy the street started to get . People of all ages , rushing to who knows where .

" You . . . Said you used to guard the prince ? At least one of my guesses were right . " Taliyah refused to look back up at the other . Those shackles might just go right back on her wrists . . . At that thought , she started to rub her injury once more .

heart-ofstones

Taliyah  was  always  a  fan  of  tall  people .  Big ,  strong , able  to  kill  her …  The  fear  was  always  replaced  by  curiosity .  Even  after  meeting  Sett ,  a  7′8  beast ,  she  was  interested .  And  Garen  definitely  got  on  her  good  side .

When  he  had  grabbed  her  small ,  cold  hands ,  she   knew  what  he  could  do .  He  could  easily  break  her  fragile   bones ,  yet  he  did  something  better .  He  crushed  the  binds .

Taliyah  let  out  a  surprised  gasp  when  he  had .  No  matter  how  hard  the  shuriman  had  struggled ,  they  refused  to  move  to  a  better  position ,  yet  Garen …  He  just …

The  short  woman  stared  up  at  him ,  eyes  wide  with  shock  and  excitement . “  Thank  you ,  sire !  That -  how  did  you -  hm … “  A  soldier  perhaps ?  Maybe  a  guard  for  the  royal  or  royal  himself .  Probably  why  he’s  referred  to  as  Sire .  And  that  build …

“ If  you  don’t  mind  me  asking ,  do  you  fight  with  your fists  or  a  sword ?  Strength  like  that  means  you  fight ,  no   doubt .  You  look  too  young  to  be  the  general ,  but  if …  No … “ Taliyah  rambled .  If  one  couldn’t  tell ,  she  enjoys  guessing   and  speaking .  People  in  general  was  something  she’s  good  at . Maybe  that’s  why Swain  had  spoken  to  her .

Taliyah  gently  rubbed  her  wrists  as  she  thought .  They  were red ,  probably  redder  than  her  cheeks  whenever  complimented .  The  stone  felt  rough …  Was  it  supposed  to  eventually dig  into  her  skin  and  cause  blood ?  Maybe  she  should’ve  heeded  the  warnings …

Wait ,  did  Garen  say  something ? Taliyah  looked  back  up  at  him ,  smiling  widely .  “  Please ,  call  me  Taliyah ! Or  Tali ! “ 

For a moment, he simply looked at her, perhaps she was thinking? She was not quite doing anything, but he didn’t really expect her to. For a moment, he pondered if she would simply run off in terror due to that, or now that she is no longer being held captive, would not wish to push her luck with remaining with the Crownguard himself. But he was patient, and a small smile rested upon his lips.

After all… Few could do that. What he did was, effectively, crush stone. While petricite was not quite simple, as it was often poorly crafted when it was smaller items, they were sturdy enough that it took a decent amount of force, such as a hard strike of a hammer, to break it. He simply knew his limits and his capabilities… And he pushed them very, very precisely.

“I fight with a claymore most of the time, but I am capable of hand-to-hand combat if my weapon is not available.” He explain briefly–It was not exactly classified information, so there was no reason to withhold it. Even the people of Demacia would speak of him and his capabilities, while most of the time they exaggerated rather severely, it did not mean some of the gossip held at least a nugget of truth to it.

“And, well, you’d be incorrect. My initial duty was to protect Jarvan Lightshield the Fourth as his personal guardian and protector, but as things have… Changed, I no longer reserve my talents simply for my Prince, but for military combat and many other warfare needs. It certainly made me a more… Ideal candidate due to my family’s ties to the Lightshields. First General Garen Crownguard, at your service.” He offered a small, polite bow towards her.

“Taliyah, then…? You may call me Garen, then.” He cleared his throat, trying to lighten the mood–if she was not stressed, there would be no reason for her trailing sentences, right? “Why would a Shuriman woman such as yourself visit Demacia?”
