    Summary

    Lucretia didn’t sleep for days. Weeks, maybe. Tirelessly she worked, securing new lives for her family. She couldn’t go back on her actions now. She and Fisher were the only ones left that remembered the harrowing journey that they embarked on. She alone held the memory of her loved ones growing closer and growing their bonds to one another. It was torture. Yet, somehow she carried on.

    Summary

    I write, like, WAY too many character studies and inner conflict scenes! Exploring and analyzing characters is real fun- and it's even more fun when there's a heavy bit of hurt/comfort involved! So here is a place for all that good stuff! (I will update the tags as I go)

     

    Lucretia, for all her talent and wit, was not a natural born leader. It wasn’t in her nature to assert herself or to step up and take charge. She had been made, molded, into a leader. After her journey through space and time, and during that terrifying year when she was all alone, she had been forced to take responsibility. She didn’t want to be in charge, but there was no one else who could take her place. No one else could be the Director...

    Summary

    "I understand why you felt like you couldn’t tell the others. They would have had a whole existential argument about it.” Taako sits down in the chair opposite her and leans his staff against her desk. “But, Lucy, surely you know that my moral compass is just an arrow pointing toward Lup.”

    And the strangers became colleagues.

    And the colleagues became friends.

    And the friends became family.

    And the family became strangers once again.

    Summary

    Merle starts coughing on his second bite of albondigas soup and Taako freezes in panic, shoulders lifted and ears flat. Magnus would have missed it if he weren’t looking at the smear of sauce on the elf’s cheek and deciding whether to tell him or not.

    Summary

    Taako sighs and takes off his hat, wringing the rim of it in his dark, scarred hands. Lup dissipates some of her aggressive energy at the sight of his walls coming down. It’s sibling honesty time.

    “I understand why Lucretia did it. I respect it and I respect her.” He stares at the kitchen tiles. “I don’t hate her. I just can’t forgive her.”

    Summary

    But Taako…she barely recognized him. He looked the same, prettier even, and he had the same sense of style and sense of humour. But this Taako was all sharp edges, cold and dangerous.

    This was Taako alone.

    Summary

    "I see.” Lucretia exhales. She looks down at her desk, considering all the reclaimers she had at her disposal. “The gauntlet is out in the open now, correct? We’ll have to send out another team as soon as possible."

    "Actually no, we won’t, Madame Director.” Killian says, taking a large breath to steady herself, “While I was fighting with Brian, adventurers came to my aid. I'm not sure how, but one of them was able to pick up the gauntlet without going mad with power. I thought it best to bring them here with the gauntlet.”

    Summary

    Lucretia had always been a chronicler. From the days of her childhood, writing details in her diary with the accuracy of an eidetic memory, to her career as writer, and later, with the IPRE, she'd excelled at memorising the events around her, and recording them in a way that was both accurate and compelling.

     

    It's the ability that allowed her to make this choice. The ability that meant the events after will never be erased from her mind. She wished she was less good at remembering, sometimes.

    Summary

    It wasn't much, but it was the least she could do. It had been years and it took all of her courage, every bit of her will, just to see his face. After what she'd done, it was so hard to face him. But Magnus was getting married and Lucretia knew she had to be there, if only for a moment. She owed it to him, even if he couldn't remember. But she always would.
