What does he mean he won't wear it ? The young woman pouted heavily as she stared at her husband . " Oh , please , Ekks ? I wear whatever you ask me to ! Just this once ? Please ? "

Speaking of that golden dress , it hung on her , the garnet jewels sparkling in the soft candle light from mere feet away . The skulls , real or not , gave off this sheen . The shuriman's whole body did , the stench of alcohol and blood of the room almost overpowering her warm vanilla . Oh , meetings always had such surprises , especially ones with the Damnation .

If that was supposed to be an insult , Taliyah didn't quite catch it . Her hands felt around her bag for a moment or two before pulling out a petoskey stone .

" Rocks are really neat . " With that said , she offered the stone to the general , shining a smile . Oh , to be a fool .

@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 .

Fighting style.

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.

Gosh , even his words were elegant . It's fine to feel intimidated , right ? Doesn't matter . Either way , Taliyah is staring at him with amazement . The gaze was short lived , though , glancing away for courtesy(and whatever image she had left) .

" The only thing I've tried was Ionian green tea . What makes fine Noxian wine different from fine Ionian wine ? "

If Taliyah was a cat , curiosity would have killed her years ago .

Closed Starter for @sire-crownguard ♡

This . . . Was not the situation Taliyah had imagined she'd get herself in .

It had all started so innocent ! It's really hard for her to believe that saving one clumsy kid from falling onto the hard ground would get her cuffed , yet here we are . A mage , clothes bright enough for everyone to know she was a foreigner , being grabbed at and shoved down the dull-looking streets of Demacia . Taliyah doesn't understand what she did to deserve such treatment ! Maybe the Noxians on the ship were right . . . Maybe she should've avoided Demacia at all costs .

The young woman thought deeply , her chocolate eyes glancing towards the parting crowd . Looks of fear and hatred was all Taliyah saw . Fear , hatred , and . . . Sadness . Now THAT was a huge red flag . " What are you doing - ? ! What'd I even do ? ! You - You can't be serious ! " " Silence , woman , " was the only response she had gotten from the questions . Well , that and a dirty glare .

The guards around her came to a halt , Taliyah tearing her attention to whatever had stopped the now saluting guards . Or . . . Whoever . A tall , masculine man stood there infront of the three . Maybe even Taliyah's savior ! A glimmer of hope filled her mind . Maybe . . . Maybe HE would understand how ridiculous this is ? Whoever this man was , he had power . That must mean he's reasonable and smart ! Right ?

Taliyah stared at Ekko for a moment or two before snatching his red glasses . The Shuriman put them on then ran onto the stage .

A big fuck you .

"Ekko, stop messing with my hair. We're about to go on stage!" *embarrassed bass player noises*

" And what if I don't want to ? "

@iixesha asked ♡ "I've got the moves," wink wonk

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 .
