“Do you mind elaborating on that?” Zoe asked. “Your history with Wesker, I mean? Not all of our readers are familiar with that name, and I want to paint a clear picture for them.”

hi hello holy moly i've been gone a while but look!!! i bring you prompts! and these are MONTHS old according to my notes app! but basically i'm two weeks and four days away from returning to my home country, and my mother sent me some tea from home, and i just got thinking about the sheer power of a cup of tea, yk? anyway! here it is! and here are my conditions! DO NOT ADD OR CHANGE THIS LIST! and also feel free to add "REVERSE" if you want to switch the rolls, i suppose!

[ COLD ]: With a notable drop in temperatures, the sender makes some tea for themself and the receiver, if not for drinking then for the warmth and comfort of holding the mugs in their chilled hands.

[ SHOCK ]: Having found a most-definitely-in-shock receiver, the sender makes a big, strong, and immensely sweet cup of tea for them in order to restore them a little bit.

[ ANOTHER ]: While preparing a cup for themself, the sender makes a second cup for the receiver in a polite and low-effort gesture towards them.

[ FIX ]: The sender, realizing the receiver is genuinely upset about something, comforts them and makes some tea in the hopes of lifting their spirits some bit.

[ WEARY ]: After a mutually extensive day, the sender and receiver return home, and the sender prepares some tea as a soothing introduction to their bedtime routine.

[ BETTER? ]: The sender, at a loss for how to approach the receiver who has clearly endured a very difficult time, decides to make some tea in an effort to console them and possibly encourage them to talk about it.

[ GUEST ]: The sender welcomes the receiver into their home with open arms and two strong mugs of tea. (There may also be food of some kind, that's for you to decide!)

[ WHY NOT? ]: The sender prepares some tea for both themself and the receiver, not out of any great need or want, but because their default setting is making tea and frankly they can't see any harm in it either way.

[ DECAF ]: The sender subtly intervenes in the receiver's sleep schedule by bringing them a cup of tea rather than a cup of coffee in the hopes that they might get some sleep that night.

[ TRY ]: The sender just received a new kind of tea, and prepares some for themself and the receiver because who better to share the experience with than the receiver?

[ COPING ]: In the aftermath of some terrible and life-changing news, the sender busies their self with preparing some tea to give themselves something to do other than think about what's just happened.

[ INSTINCT ]: Something isn't quite right with the receiver, and the sender knows it. In order to get them to open up, the sender prepares some tea.

[ REFRESHMENT ]: Someone made cookies, and what is a cookie without a cup of tea? The receiver won't need to find out; the sender is already making a cup as we speak.

[ TEA ]: The receiver has just arrived with some particularly excellent and scandalous gossip; the sender, unwilling to let the receiver's voice dry out during the revelation, prepares some tea to go with it.

[ RELAX ]: After a particularly stressful day, the sender prepares some tea so that they can finally begin to relax and unwind in the evening.

       ❝ Look, I've don't got  time  for this, ❞   he grits between his teeth, trying to keep his voice low just as she'd instructed. Once again, Angelo tugs out the little school portrait of a prettily posed young girl with eyes like his and a smile somewhere close.  ❝ This girl-   Have you seen this girl at all around here? ❞

He'd heard about too many sightings of a runaway with her description to just ignore the possibility she'd ended up here just like him. Angelo knew his sister, even after all these years she'd been missing. It wasn't beyond her to think about taking up somewhere she thought abandoned, or if someone from the house had treated her remotely kindly it'd have been enough to get her inside to do God knows what to. There's urgency in his eyes, dark desperation. Angelo didn't care about his own survival here. He cared about whether his sister was nearby   ( and some part of him felt like she was ).

The figure came into focus as she turned toward him. She wasn't Mary. That was obvious. But there was something in her eyes, fear, anger, confusion. Like she'd been dropped into a nightmare of her own making.

He looked past her, watching the last of the creatures writhe and collapse, black ichor spreading across the pavement like spilled ink. Too human to be monsters. Too monstrous to be human.

" I don't know what they are, " he said softly, as if louder words might summon more. " And I don't know why they look like that. But shooting them usually works. "

He stepped forward slowly, careful not to startle her. She looked like one wrong word might send her running or trigger another barrage of bullets.

" You're not the first to end up here without answers. " His eyes flicked toward the fog-shrouded street behind her. " And you probably won't be the last. "

His gaze returned to her, quietly observant. The Southern accent, the worn clothes, the hardened edge in her posture, all signs of someone who'd survived something terrible. Someone like him. Her question brought him back.

" You're in Silent Hill. It's a small resort town in Maine. But it's more than just a town. " His voice dropped, darker now. " It...changes. "

He swallowed, jaw tightening. " I'm looking for someone. My wife. She's waiting for me somewhere in this town. " His eyes locked onto hers, steady, haunted. " You said you were here for an interview? What kind of story were you chasing that led you to a place like this? "

“There wouldn’t happen to be any ammo around here, would there?”

"That's how it is for me, I think," Caelen said. "Perhaps I am trying to be so... but I do not yet believe it is true. Hopefully, someday, it will be."

"Really? I always felt the opposite was true for me..." Ashelia insisted.

"Well you always were stronger than I," Caelen said with brotherly affection.

"That is not true," Ashelia said, surprised he would say it.

"Sure it is. I could never have done what you did and go question to take the throne of our homeland," he said.

"I did not succeed..." Ashe reminded him, her gaze falling.

"But you would have, had the Fates not tossed you something so strange as to be moved to another time," Caelen insisted.

"I am not certain I agree, but... thank you," she said.

When Zoe's demeanor seemed to change and she said she made a promise never to discuss certain things again, the siblings looked at each other for a moment. "Then you do not need to," Caelen said sympathetically.

The siblings continued to talk amongst themselves, and Zoe’s curiosity continued to grow. Taking the throne? A homeland? Where did these people even come from? No one had given her the scoop on the Ivalicians, so she remained in the dark.

“Another time? Where are y’all from again?”

Zoe shook her head at the explanation. Ironically enough, that didn’t even make her top ten craziest experiences list. She’d have to speak with the Avengers about a potential interview in the future. The conversation turned back to Zoe, and she did her best to explain whilst simultaneously keeping the details vague.
