Seclusion: A FC/UC Background Short

Abluvion
Pre-Humanoid Era
xxxx, X.X.

Unda stood alone in the deepest recesses of her home, feeling the water swirl around her ankles. It had been a while since she was last there in that particular area – the last time she was, she was giving and giving and there was so much pain around her.

Now, she was there for a completely different reason. Unda exhaled, feeling the waters around her swirl turbulently; they had reacted to her current moods and she attempted to calm herself down. This only seemed to irritate them more. The waters gave a small roar and Unda’s eyes snapped open, she glaring down at her feet as if demanding them to stop.

And they did, with mild hesitation.

“I can’t believe it had to escalate to this point,” she muttered, extremely irritated. “All because of Ventus…”

Despite her exterior feelings, Unda was terrified.

They had found Ventus alone and unconscious, refusing to wake at all. With that, his world – Susurrus – had started to decay at the lack of life force being drawn from their Creator.

They tried everything. Unda herself had attempted to take control of his Quintessence and banish whatever impurity had poisoned him, but there was no effect. Amina tried forging the most healing of herbs and fed it to him, but he did not rouse. Finally, Calor summoned his flames and tried restoring his eldest brother’s older warmth.

Even with their efforts, Ventus did not stir. He remained there, his eyes closed and form rigid, unmoving. Amina nearly burst into tears at the predicament of her favorite sibling and the Twins didn’t know how to calm her down. Finally, they made Amina return to her home and promised to call for her if they had any news.

Unda and Calor, despite their being Twins, never got along with each other. There was the elemental difference and the personality barrier, both of which incredibly contrasting that they frequently got into scuffles and small-scale fights.

With Ventus’ calming voice and overseeing eyes, however, both of them knew that it was time to get themselves together.

Russ' Updates #024: First of Many Lasts

Hello, Darlings!

Midterm season is (finally) over – and hey, it was my last midterm season as a high school student… *blinks slowly* Jeez, things are really coming up quickly. I’ve only got… *counts* …forty more days until my graduation from high school.

…dear God, I’m not ready. DX

So with midterm season over, I’m really hoping that I can catch up with posting for this February’s Featured Character. *nods*I’m sincerely hoping that I’ll be able to write a short tomorrow since, hey – I’ve got early departure tomorrow and a lot of time to burn.

This week, I just want to focus on Unda, yes? I want to give the beloved Water Deity as much screen time as she deserves~

“Sure. Keep saying that, Crea.”

Shh Unda you’re just bitter because your upcoming Background Short involves your broken heart

“Whatever.”

This week pretty much involves cramming all the second unit lessons into a week and a half or so. *laughs* It’s going to be really, really hectic. Despite that, I still hope that I’ll be able to make time for writing and for the blog, even with all the academics in the way. And hey - only 18 days until finals...

oh god why

Here are this week’s expected posts!

Russ' Updates #023: Making Up

Hello, readers. Crea – Russie – isn’t feeling her best today, unfortunately. Because of that, I’m here to take over this week’s RussDate.

What – you don’t know who I am? Does ‘Hotshot Japanese businessman’ ring a bell yet? No? Alright, fine. Kenichi Matsumoto here for the time being, here to update you on what to expect for the week.

The You Brought Color Celebration Week officially ended last night, February 1, 2015. Russie would like to extend her deepest thanks and appreciation to those who supported the event, read the shorts, etc. *nods*

This week is the start of Russie’s midterms. Her last set of midterms, for this school year, actually – and maybe the last one’s she’ll ever take as a high school student. Time flies by really quickly. She actually received her report card for the third quarter last Friday.

…let’s just say that she wants to make up for a certain few subjects. *chuckles* Anyway, she’ll be studying pretty damn hard in order to pull her grades up. Please do understand when her activity level goes down this February. Russie wants to make sure that she passes her subjects with flying colors. ‘No regrets’, as she says.

Also – you may have noticed the new Featured Character graphic on the side, yes?

Say hi, Unda.

"Hello."

As much as possible, she’ll do her best to post during the weekend as most of her midterms will be finished by then. Please do wish her – and the Seniors MMXV – the best.

Because hey – it’s 47 days until her graduation.

(47 days until another challenge. *grins*)

YBC Challenge: The Last Day -- Black and White

They completed each other in many different ways.

Matt acted as the heart to her mind; there were times in which the black-haired woman remained too cold and logical when the moment called for her to be considerate. He made sure to somehow ‘melt’ her when she had to be melted, when the ice she used to build walls around herself got too thick. When she started to isolate herself from him and the rest of the world, he managed to take her out and remind her that she wasn’t made to handle things alone.

It went the same for A, who acted as the ice to cool him down when he got too into things. Matt’s irritability could skyrocket if too many things rubbed him the wrong way all at once and she knew that. So when he was about to spit profanities which burned like hellfire, A always made sure to use the right words to calm him down and mellow him out. It worked most of the time – but when his fire was getting harder to control, she had to put her foot down and go ice against flame.

There were times wherein the ice could bring frostbite and the fire could leave nasty burns. Both of them knew that – it couldn’t be perfect hundred percent of the time.

When that happened, either of them had to give.

It was usually Matt who regained his senses; the one whose emotions would flare up and then disappear as quickly as they came. Due to this, it was him who tried to defrost A when both of them had an argument or a fight.

Cold reason and a passionate heart were never thought of to work out. People usually thought that the cold could suffocate and the passion would burn too deep and burn out. But the two of them proved wrong, showing that it could be beneficial instead of painful; something that was worth negotiating over and trying for.

Fire and ice.

Light and dark.

Two sides of life condensed into one.'
