Next idea reffering to the latest message. The reader gives them their necklace as a lucky
charm and some kind of promise to come back to them right before they go on a
mission/battle?
You know my favorite characters, but feel free to write for characters you like
to write about.
After weeks/months/years of silence, I am back.
Thank you Knifey for believing in me when I couldn't believe in myself! I hope you will enjoy it!
„Why are you giving me this?” he was so surprised when you suddenly gave him a turquoise
The stone was in the shade of summer sky, covered with a thin web of darker veins, it was held in place by a black, leather strap
“It should give you protection, especially that I won’t be there with you”
It didn’t matter that he wasn’t the one to believe in the magical power of colourful stones, he was just happy to have a gift from you
He immediately put it around his neck, secretly happy that he will be able to have a piece of you wherever he goes
“Thank you” he would say while hugging you and leaving a gentle kiss on your temple
“Promise me you will be careful and that you will come back to me”
After that, he thought about what to give you in return
During his missions, he was learning about different stones and when he found out that turquoise was really supposed to give peace and protection, he felt like his heart skipped a beat
It took a long time but finally, he managed to find the perfect stone – one that you then wore to the end of the time
The Morrigan was docked in the port for a week now and you were bored
As not-yet-the-official-templar you weren’t allowed to attend the meetings and all the weird shenanigans Shay had to take part in
It’s not like you cared a lot about politics but it was boring all alone
Like sure shopping and eating nice food was great after weeks at the sea but you missed your love
That day you were on the shore, enjoying the sun and the warm weather, baling barefoot on the wet sand, allowing the ocean to wash around your feet
At one point you found a clam
And only by a total accident you also knew that Shay will have a birthday soon
It took a bit to find the right blacksmith but he agreed, after getting some additional coins, to put priority on your order
You made a sketch of what you wanted – a silver four-leaf clover with this small pearl inside
“It’s for good luck,” you said while giving him the present
The grin on his face widened
And then he spent half of the night thanking you for a beautiful gift
He doesn’t really like getting gifts
Unless a gift is a cup of coffee
Honestly giving him a gift is such a pain as he has almost everything he wants
Like seriously he grew up rich and as a Café Theatre owner he doesn’t really complain about the lack of money to spend
One day he comes back home and tells you he has a mission in Germany so he will be away for a few weeks
He also asked you to take care of the Café in his absence as he trusts you the most
It broke your heart that he will be away for so long so you desperately thought about something to make him remember his home and you
At one point you found a weird man from a land far far away who was selling some goods
Among them, there was a little Rhodochrosite. A pink crystal in a shape of an obelisk hanging on a silver threat
This man piqued your curiosity so you listen to the story of the spiritual meaning of the stone
You came back home with this necklace just to find Arno packing his clothes
You hugged him from behind, not really wanting to let him go so far away without you
“I have something for you”
“I hope it’s a cup of coffee”
“I don’t want you to go. But also, I cannot stop you so… please, have it with you. It’s a Rhodochrosite and it means compassion and love. They say it clears away emotional wounds and scars from the past. With it… you will come back to me eventually, right?”
There was a moment of silence and you thought Arno wasn’t really happy
It was until he hugged you so tightly, he almost took your breath away
“It is so much better than coffee. I swear I will come back to your Cherie”
The crew was preparing your ship to set sails
Right next to your there was Jackdaw, also getting ready to head toward the endless blue
While sitting on the railing you watched the blond man, your friend and lover, ready to leave for a mission that will take him god-knows-where
You were holding a coin in your hand frantically flipping it through your fingers
“Hey, Kenway!” you shouted, to catch his attention. Despite the sound of waves crashing against the shore, he heard you and immediately turned around, just in time to catch the object that flew his way
It was a golden coin with jackdaw on it and a little hole at the top, through which run a leather strap
He raised his head only to see you holding the twin coin, already on your neck
“This is a promise, Kenway. Better come back and find me after the job is done” you threaten, but actually, you were afraid that the endless ocean will be too much of a gap between you and the bond you shared would be severed
Edward put the necklace with a coin on and then sent you one of his smirks
“I will find you even at the edge of the world, Lass! And you better have the second coin prepared for me!”
