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 . "

This was all so strange . Earlier that day , the Shuriman woman heard people muttering in the streets . They were speaking of a man— no , a half man , half wolf abomination .
While she never really trusts words on the street , Taliyah always has been just a bit too curious .
The show was rather unnerving . Taliyah has a sensitive soul , and unnecessary violence was never something she enjoys . Most of the time , her face was covered or her eyes were closed . Can you blame her though ?
Going there was a mistake , she knows now . At the end of the brutal show , Taliyah was getting ready to leave . To forget this place ever existed , and continue to explore the magic lands of Ionia . However , a deep voice caught her attention .
Startled , the freckled girl turned suddenly . There , she went face to . . . Abs with a tall man . The one in the ring , presumably called 'The Boss' .
Taliyah stared at the Boss with wide eyes , hardly registering what he had said . Jesus , he's big . . . Clearing her voice , Taliyah's hazel eyes glanced up at the man . Vastaya ? You know what I mean .
Clearing her throat , Taliyah finally responded . " I am- ! Shurima is very different . Less . . . Bloodshed . " With her accent heavy , Taliyah sent him a nervous smile . Trying her very best to ignore the blood on his knuckles . " Are you hurt ? "

@sire-crownguard :
He couldn’t help but sigh a little, smiling at her own stuttering and stumbling over her own words. She was truly doing her best, he knew this much, but many foreigners were wise enough to not go to Demacia when magic flowed through their veins.
Or, at least, they had the guts to risk it. For a moment, he idly wondered which it could’ve been, but seeing her face… how could he doubt? Her expression was so… innocent. Something he has not seen in a long, long time…
“Well, then let’s not worry about that for now.” He reassured, that same, gentle smile keeping itself upon his face. “You needn’t fuss too much, I’ll ensure you’re in a good state before I’ll leave your company. I can only imagine your… confusion, a harsh welcome like that in a new land is going to leave you a little frazzled.”
He gently pushed her hand back down. “Don’t worry about that for now. As for the time being, I’ll pay for your current expenses. It is… the least i can do, to apologize for your treatment.” He reassured. “… I, uh… yes. We are quite differently sized, after all.”
… Awkward was an understatement. Why would she point out such a trivial thing?
“Instead of dealing with that… how about we go get something to eat? I’m off duty by now, regardless… It’ll be my treat.”
Taliyah couldn’t help but let out a sigh . Her hazel eyes examined his face for a moment . He looked kind . Very kind . Does she deserve this ? There wasn’t a reason she should turn down his offer , so . . .
“ Thank you , Garen . Say , what are some foods you eat here ? Shuriman meals are different - even the cities Noxus controls in Shurima are unique to both countries . Kinda like a blend of both countries ! “
Ah , there she goes , ranting about whatever her mind thought about . Innocence . That’s what Garen calls it , right ? It’s more like ignorance . If ignorance is bliss , she’s on a dangerous level of bliss . The amount good in the world she sees is but a figment of her imagination . To be like this comes with a price .
Hers just happen to be ptsd .
Was Taliyah too trusting ? Was this too soon ? Her smile slowly fell , thoughts running wild . Last time she trusted people this quickly . . . That wasn’t fun .
“ A-Are you sure you don’t want me to help pay ? I have a decent amount in my bag , “ The freckled girl mumbled . She forced a nervous smile , hand reaching up to tuck a lock of hair behind her pierced ear . “ I’m sorry for acting weird , “ She apologized quickly .
Sahira slaps Taliyah. "GREETINGS, BATCH!!"
The now hurt Shuriman stared at the coyfox vastaya , cheek held by her right hand . " What was THAT for ? " Taliyah asked in an annoyed tone.
You are not afraid of the sufferings and sorrows of other people, even when they are acted out in unappealing ways. Beneath even defensiveness and self-righteous behaviour, you know that deep down people need nurturing and consolation. One danger is being naive about people’s dark sides. But at your best you know you can be mean yourself, which helps you to sympathise. You bring strength and forgiveness where other people might panic.
For Tenderness:
The Darkest Truth About Love
On Charity
Loving and Being Loved
Being affirmed and nurtured by others is a central requirement for you to feel safe. This means you can be slow to warm up to other people, which is difficult because what you most need from them is their warmth. Yet you know how to be vulnerable: to let down your defences and accept that you need another person. This lack of pretence is a valuable trait, and ultimately more endearing than the macho efforts others make to deny their childlike sides.
For Neediness:
Why the Fear of Rejection Never Goes Away
On the Longing for Maternal Tenderness
How to Spend Time Alone
You have delicate, sensitive perceptions; you can be deeply moved by appearances – the right light in a room, or good food, or the texture of a piece of clothing. Expressive, intelligent language has a powerful hold on you; your mind works better when it is inspired and provoked by vivid imagery. It can be sad to live in a world which is often so ugly and not properly looked after. But you know that things can be otherwise, and you have the ability to appreciate the world at its best.
For Sensitivity:
Why We Should Draw More
Why Design Matters
On Good and Bad Taste

Taliyah has always been the type to obsess over her loved ones . She was used to grooming their hair and giving as many hugs as possible . . . So , with her model boyfriend being all the way across the world , there hasn't really been much for her to do other than wait it out . Wait it out by texting Ekko whenever she could .
[CherryGirl]|[Bby, jus close your eyes]
[CherryGirl]|[And talk to me]
[CherryGirl]|[Don't leave me yet]
[CherryGirl]|[I'm getting ready for the gym. Y can't you sleep?]
Taliyah was curious . Always has been , always will be . And you know what always got her ? Suspicious notes , asking to see her in the graveyard past midnight . Ahri had warned Taliyah , but . . .
The young woman was already there . Standing at the gates of the cemetery , Tali heard something . The faintest chords of a guitar . Without a second thought , she took out her sword and cut the chains . That , along with the lock , fell onto the damp , foggy ground .
With a screech , the gate slowly opened , showing just how foggy it was . However , that's always the case in Aaa . The adventurer began to walk further into the nothingness , listening for the strum of a guitar . Without a doubt , it was Ekko .
With each quick step , the song became clearer and clearer . A voice soon joined in , and then there he was . The vampire king , floating mindlessly while strumming . . . Yet Taliyah did nothing to make her presence known . Instead , she sat on the headstone of someone long dead , chocolate eyes watching innocently .
Taliyah was always amazed by tall people . More specifically , their hands . Call it whatever you want , but it’s just so interesting . Hell , his palm could probably cover her whole face ! Yeah , her attention was split as he spoke .
Taliyah looked up suddenly , Sett’s face WAY closer than it just was . Wow , okay , personal space . Her hazel eyes studied him , silent for a moment or two . Was this a person she should trust ? After all , he did do a LOT of damage earlier . . . Oh , whatever . She can fend for herself .
To answer Sett’s question , Taliyah just smiled innocently . “ The arena is made of stone , by the look of it . I can protect myself . “ Taking a look around , the Shuriman just hummed . “ I wanted to know what people were talking about . You’re the Boss , no ? “
