Thanks so much to @keen2meecha for the tag! I love being tagged in things like this, so I appreciate it! 

Rules: find the words the person tagged you gave in your WIP and post the snippets they’re in!

Words I Was Given: ethereal, blossom, bird, dark, pretty. 

Ethereal

no matches :( 

Blossom

“I’ve never been more sure about anything. Apart, from maybe, how much I want to kiss you.” Now it’s Mollie that loses her cool, her cheeks blossoming pink, her eyes breaking contact with mine. “Can I kiss you?”

Bird

A bird caws overhead and splits the night sky. I watch it circle over the tops of the trees. What am I going to do? The thought runs laps in my mind like an agitated dog finally let loose, my heart jackhammering against my ribs.

Dark

The sun is setting red in the distance, staining the road that Madison walks. Shadows congregate in corners, and I try not to think too much about the darkness that’s already leeching in. It’s getting late.

Pretty

“Yes, I know. God forbid that pretty and popular Paisley is seen to be hanging around with some loser from Enviro Soc,” Ezra tuts and rolls his eyes. “Grow up, Paisley. When are you going to realise things go a hell of a lot deeper than petty high school politics?”

Tagging a mix of people who always make me smile when I see them pop up on my dash: @henrike-does-writing-sometimes, @pamsdrabbles, @goblingraveyard, @hazard-writes, @in-a-writing-crisis, @talesofsorrowandofruin, @kyoukalay and an open tag for anyone else who might like to get involved!  As always, no pressure to actually do this :) 

Sorry

“I have decided to do this no matter what. I’m glad I got the chance to at least say goodbye to you. To you both. Thank you for helping me get this far and…I’m sorry.”

Magic

“Yes, but Metjen stayed persistent. He showered her with the most precious gifts and showed his love for her through lavious feasts. She appreciated the thought, but she still did not love him. After some time, the king could no longer understand her disinterest. It was then, that an unknown wanderer had approached him. The wanderer told him of the legend of the relics of Thoth and the magic that was imbued inside. From the legend, three relics were known to exist in the world. One of them was found nearby. This, as you know now, is the Ring of Memories. The traveller had warned the old king to not give this ring to his wife, as it would be sure to cause him to lose everything he loved.”

Friend (cries when she sees there are 92 mentions of the word friend)

The song was over. It was only a matter of time before she would return to her friend’s side. Why was she still here? She tried to retract her hand from the bark, but could not feel her own body. The tree had taken over. She wanted to cry and scream. She wanted to struggle her way out of this prison. But she couldn’t. Almost like she didn’t exist anymore.

Evening

The new clue seemed like it would serve them greatly for the answer to their puzzle. Once everyone had settled down a little and rested up, evening had dawned on Nemhat. The sun was slowly disappearing behind the mountains, soft hues of red and purple enveloping the palace.

Music

The deal was sealed with a kiss on the lips; the light from the fireflies, the chirping of the crickets and the faint sound of music fading away.

Thank you for the tag @aye-write <3 <3 Tagging: @sixtyfourk, @eucalie, @yoshi-g-teh-first, @dazais-guardian-angel and @elementalrams and anyone who who’d like to do this!

Alone

“Is someone threatening you to do this ? Or threatening to hurt you or your family, like Targent did to some of its employees ?” He reached his hand towards her, placing it on her own. She didn't move. Family... “Please, Emmy. Tell me what's wrong. I... I'm sorry, you know ? For my attitude. I haven't been really nice to you lately. I was sure you lied to us for so long... It kind of hurt me. But now I see you may feel worse than we are about this.” Emmy remained silent. Her head was lowered so that her hair hid her face from him. “Please, Emmy. You're not alone.”

Heart

Her lips were trembling, her heart beating fast. She tried to look at him. This was the most painful look he had ever seen from her. “... I would only bother you.” She ended in a whisper.

The room fell silent. It took all of the professor's energy not to grab her arm so she couldn't go now. He was feeling like they needed to talk. He needed to soothe her, to tell her everything was okay.

He didn't want her to leave.

Eyes 

The last part of the costume she put on was her mask. It wasn't like her father's : it has the shape of the fox symbol, orange on the upper part, white on the lowest. It just had two holes for her eyes, but it was a perfect copy of her family's symbol. When she wore it, her eyes weren't visible anymore.

Connor smiled when Emmy wore the entire costume.

You would have been proud of your daughter, Silver. She wears your colors perfectly.

Thank

"No, you don't understand." Emmy looked at him in the eyes, locking hers with his. Brown and blue, dark and light. Quite the opposite, and yet so complementary. "I couldn't have got this far without you. If you hadn't been there when my father died, I didn't know what I would've done. And even now, if you weren't with me, I would never have been able to reach and catch Conti. So... Thank you."

Flora, Layton, Emmy, Aurora, Katia like magical girls (and boy XD)

Ok so I try again : 🤩

JGJFJFFJ NO YOU'RE NOT. You are anything but stupid my love❤❤

My favourite thing about you... wow now that I think about it... that's crazy hard. You were my first real fandom friend. The first person who I could be as crazy with as I wanted to be. You really were and still are such a bright spot in my life and I can't wait to meet you irl. Our disney trip is going to be EPIC🎉🎉

My favourite thing about you is that I can message, snap, whine, rant and cry to any time of the day. Without you and Metric, I wouldn't still be writing fanfiction. Without you, I wouldn't be as inspired to write my own book. You have no idea how much I owe you and yet you still are always there for me.

I really really love you Chloé and I sincerely hope you will want to stay friends forever. Besides all that, I LOVE your stories! I LOVE that you have the same undying love for our OTP❤ and I'm sure that's not going to stop anytime soon.

Hello there, shippers everywhere! After seeing the fandom’s motivation for for individual characters and ships, I felt inspired to host a week as well! And so… for all interested parties, I have with me a small survey to start deciding the prompts for the week! Please select the three you wish to see, and, should there be other prompts/suggestions we’ll have a subsequent poll to decide the top seven.

The date will be announced once the prompts have been chosen!

Hey >:3 in case you didn't know, I have made a laytonxemmy discord server~

Hello, hope all of you are safe and doing well.

You may have heard of what happened in Lebanon today and if not, basically, there was a big explosion in Beirut that affected many cities, destroyed shops, homes, cars, caused many injuries and deaths. The cause is uncertain.

As a fellow lebanese myself (that also lives there), today was absolutely terrifying, probably the scariest moments of my life. We heard a deafening sound as the floors were shaking. Some of us thought it was an attack, others thought it was an earthquake. As soon as it ended many expected a second one, which luckily never happened.

Here's a video of what happened that was sent to me, there are also many others that you can find online.

Windows were broken, doors wrecked, cars flipped over, buildings collapsed, people hit by flying or falling objects, and unfortunately, many didn't make it out alive.

We were one of the lucky ones, our families and friends were all safe and our homes were fine.

Some people couldn't even get out of the crumbling builings, so we saw corpses being pulled out, although some people survived the crash. But wherever we looked, there was blood, poeple were half covered in it, their shirts, pants, hair, everything. And that sight was traumatizing.

We watched the news with elders severely injured, children with blood-spattered shirts and people in pain that couldn't get in the hospitals because they were full.

Some people are missing. Just try to imagine the pain and fear their families and friends are feeling.

Articles about what happened, there are a lot more

Not only are we in the middle of a pandemic, but Lebanon is also going through a very serious economical crisis. To give you an example, before, $1 equaled 1 500 lebanese pounds. Nowadays, $1 equals more than 7 000 lebanese pounds. Not to mention that we obviously don't have any dollars at disposition, so yeah we're fucked.

People are hungry, homeless, unemployed. And even if they are getting paid, it'll be useless since the prices of everything went up because they were affected by the economical fiasco.

Important additional information

Today, I heard my 7 year old cousins scream in fear that they were going to die. I saw my aunt shaking, worried that her children won't survive. I saw my dad freak out while trying to reassure us when we both knew that we were uncertain about the next minutes of our lives. I heard the panic in the trembling voices of my family and friends as they couldn't believe what had just happened. I thought my loved ones and I were going to die in the next seconds.

I'm never forgetting those moments and feelings.

I don't think signing petitions will help, i don't even know if the following links will help either, I just know Lebanon and it's people are desperate for anything because the future of this country is extremely uncertain.
