Shiny duo (pearl + gem, can be platonic or romantic) Curses by the Crane Wives

gem and pearl to the tune of curses coming up! i wrote their relationship as a “up to interpretation” sort of thing so enjoy!

~~

gem doesn’t remember much. what she doesn’t remember, well she can’t tell you because she doesn’t remember! silly! she remembers some things. she remembers the sun, reaching down and pulling her into its heated embrace. she remembers closing her eyes. and then. nothing. just empty, blinding, light. gem didn’t remember much. 

and then, well, then she was here. beloved princess of dawn, lead priestess of the cult worship of the sun, unable to see. she could feel the sun on her skin, but she could never see its blinding beautiful light. 

gem didn’t remember much. but she remember pearl. she remembered her smile, the sound of her voice when she laughed, the feel of her arms around gem. 

(for the song and character thing)

(yippee!!! thank you for this, even if you don't write it, i love seeing the empires tag get used lol)

gem and fwhip from ribs with a side of recovering corruption coming up! (you’re welcome! i love empires sm it’s literally my favorite)(also i am still taking these! send me a ship/character and a song and you’ll get a snippet!)

gem blinked, the world blurring in her vision. she was so warm. why was she so warm, she was in the mountains? she pulled her cloak around her, alternating between shivering violently and sweating. she blinked, and time felt like it shuddered, every second a year. 

fwhip picks her up, brings her inside, settles her on the couch. he’s worried about her. he always has been, since they were kids, since they were young, laughing, playing around. she always worked herself to hard, even back then. 

fwhip started the fire, sitting next to her and sighing. he leaned back, staring at the ceiling. he would do anything for her. he would kill that stupid rivendellian prince for what he did—

fwhip sighed heavily, running his hands through his hair. she’d told him, time and time again, that he was too protective, that she was fine, that he needed to back off and let her live her life. 

he tried, too! he tried to leave her alone but every time. every time something happened and they needed each others help. fwhip supposed that’s what came of being a twin. can’t live with them can’t live without them.
