Tonight’s win has left Eska in a favorable mood. Though her arms and legs still ache from the strain of battle, the burn they carry reminds her still of yet another hard-earned victory. Eska walks into the halls of the stadium freshly changed from her probending uniform with a sense of purpose, of accomplishment –– and then light blue eyes settle upon the boy in the hall.
❝ Are you lost ? ❞ she calls out, her voice a dull monotone, ❝ This area is off-limits to non-competitors. ❞

like for a probender!eska verse starter probably. i’ve only been quiet on my blogs for like ?? maybe a day and still i feel like i’ve been gone for a week omg.
old writing of mine actually from like a year ago !! original post here, I just wanted the read more to be on my blog instead of the old one.
They’d told him that her partner was injured.
He knows her by simply being a– fellow pilot. That’s all. They’ve never spoken before, but he knows that she and her brother have been here longer than he and Mako have; tried and trusted rangers that were no doubt invaluable to the Jaeger Program. They weren’t popular around the Shatterdome like Korra was or anything—- but they had a lot of Kaiju kills, second to only their famous cousin.
He watches her from his table in the cafeteria sometimes, not really having the courage to stand up and approach her—- because, apparently, no one else does, either. Around the girl the Shatterdome is full of sounds and talking and metallic banging, and yet there she sits in the midst of it all, in her contained silence. It’s as if anything that comes within a couple of feet of her becomes quiet and still.
He watches her spar with partner after partner, too, trying to find some sort of match within the waves of possible candidates. She's skilled, that much is obvious to anyone. Piloting is the air she breathes, and fighting seems almost second-nature to her. Quick, and deadly. And unable to find the proper connection to pilot with in the absence of her brother. He’s not great with all the fancy-schmancy terms that come with his job, but——
he knows drift compatibility can be tricky sometimes.
You have to go into someone’s head, have to know all of their little secrets, have to know them from the inside out. And for those who aren’t exactly people people, it’s not exactly easy to find the right connection.
He watches partner after partner fail to connect with her, and honestly ? It’s kind of heartbreaking. Sometimes he’ll see her brother hobbling around on his crutches beside her, and by the look on Desna’s face when he watches her try to connect with a candidate—- he thinks something similar too.
And he, being who he is… he feels kind of sorry for her. Really sorry for her.
❝ Do you think she’ll be able to find a partner, Mako ?
What if Desna never gets better ? ❞
❝ Are you still on about that, Bolin ?
Of course he’ll get better. You don’t have to worry about them. ❞
And of course, his big brother being… well, his big brother, he wants to listen to him ! Really, he does ! But he can't stand watching her practice, day after day, all that raw TALENT wasted on her inability to drift with anyone. And so maybe about after a week or so of watching her, without thinking about it, even, he finds himself outside of her door, his dumb fist having already knocked on it.
What’s he even thinking ? Oh, wow he really should have—- thought about things– and now she’s standing there in the doorway, staring at him ! He can barely think, emerald irises meeting that pale, almost silver gaze. Stupidly, his mouth opens and then closes as he tries to phrase the thought that brought him here—-
❝ What do you want ? ❞
her voice is cold, like the rest of her,
just being in her presence makes him feel
submerged in ice; FROZEN.
He can barely move.
And then he finds his voice, and he’s rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly as his noise-maker flaps open and shut with his half-thought of a proposition as Pabu perches on his shoulder.
❝ Uh, hey there, Eska—- I'm Bolin–
I just—- couldn’t help but notice that
you were kind of in the market for a
co-pilot and you really seemed to be
having trouble finding the right match
and I just thought——– ❞
A breath to steady himself, a gulp.
❝ I just thought maybe… I could try being your co-pilot. ❞
And then there’s a long moment of silence from her as she stands in the doorway, just… staring at him with those pale eyes of hers. Her lips purse after a few seconds, the only real indication that she’s even heard him, but she doesn't say anything.
❝ I– uhm, yeah, it’s a stupid—- ❞
❝ Don’t you have a partner ? ❞
Her voice is sharp and cutting, and it bites into his half-spoken sentence before it can be finished. And then he's the one staring at her for a second because she’s ruined his train of thought with her question, and slowly he nods his big dumb head in response, because yes, he does already kind of have a partner. His brother. His big brother. Mako.
❝ Then why do you want to try being mine ? ❞
❝ I– you just… you look like you’re having some trouble
finding someone to fill in for Desna, y'know ? And I mean,
me and Mako are both people… people. I’m sure it’d be
loads easier for him to find a fill-in for me while I’m helping
you if we… y'know, work. ❞
❝ Alright. ❞
The word is spoken so softly it almost flies past him.
And then he’s grinning at her like an idiot, those sweet green eyes wide with excitement, because she's really willing to try having him as a co-pilot and that makes him so happy for some reason– ! And they stare at each other for another minute, maybe, him smiling in his sweetheart Bolin way and her being her… calm self.
The door closes without a good-bye, and his grin disappears for a second.
And then it returns because she’s going to try being his co-pilot.

the girl you love looks
like a blizzard and so
you shackle yourself
to her feet [because
that is, after all, the
only way you know
to survive].
the girl you love
kisses you and calls
you ‘frostbite girl’
and you find icicles
in the crooks of
her skin, snowflakes
caught in her
eyelashes.
the girl you love
is always cold,
snow storms
replacing her
bone marrow and
sleet sliding from
her mouth into yours.
the girl you love
is an avalanche
[and you cannot
stop begging for
her to bury you in
her arms, in her skin].
the girl you love
smiles and all you
can think is ‘love
her, love her, love her.’
Darshana Suresh, seasons series - “winter girl” (via wutheringwolf)
remember the power of the sea. remember poseidon. remember tsunamis, floods, volcanos erupting underwater. the ocean is in your blood. you are ferocious.

WHERE WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO VISIT ON YOUR PLANET?
Slowly, pale eyes fixate upon the stranger before her with little regard. The inquiry itself is asked of honest curiosity, she supposes –– though really, what would they care of what places of geographic significance she’d like to settle her feet upon? The information they request would do nothing to benefit them. They don’t know her or anything about her, and Eska has little-to-no intent to befriend this nameless, practically faceless individual ( and even less to speak with them ). The fine edges and dark corners of her own somber soul are for a scarce few to traverse.
❝ Traveling is of little interest to me, ❞ she says, those near-silver eyes swiveling dismissively away and squinting instead to the distant horizon, a sight far away from the other. Her thoughts are carefully guarded, it needn’t be known that there are indeed distant landscapes within her mind’s eye ––– deserts, forests, anything, everything.

pacific rim au in which desna is the only person eska is drift compatible with (because they're like super shut-off and disillusioned with basically everyone) and he gets hurt and she can't pilot a jaeger until bolin offers to try going with her when no one is working as her new partner and it's super wonky at first and they fall into the drift but it's also strong and he's like the first ever person other than desna to get beneath her icy exterior
