(Another fanfic I guess. Work is boring. Using a Warlock Young Wolf because... I guess because I main one? That and describing robes in fics are like serotonin injected straight into my brain. YW will be using they/them pronouns, if any typos then I'm an idiot)

{In which the Witch Queen wonders about the other's silence}

The Young Wolf is content in their small hideaway within Mara Sov's Chambers. She isn't there yet from her meeting with whomever, so that gives the Guardian a place of silence to contemplate. But of course, there was one small issue.

"Hello Young Wolf." Savathun's drawl traced over the Guardian's head, threatening to scalp the outer layer of their mind.

The Guardian huffed.

This seems to surprise the Witch Queen, why it did, the Young Wolf didn't seem to care. The Witch Queen notes their posture. Cradled within a corner, watching the portal, twiddling their fingers. Hmm. Guardians are hardwired for combat, so one's fingers would naturally-

The Guardian stands. Their robes flow as they moved forward, and stand in front of the gates. Their small light, their Ghost emerges. Immediately the Guardian grabs their Ghost, who yelps out a "Hey!?" before being transmatted to wherever they go when they hide.

"You need not be so wary, Guardian. While I am encased within this prison, your Ghost is safe, not that I had the intention of harming them in the first place." Savathun whispers to the Guardian, who only gave a shrug in response.

There it is again, another gesture, another without a word. Savathun has heard them speak, but not directly to them, the Witch Queen. How can she bend and manipulate another, when they would not converse? Their silence is palpable and reeks of... of... Guilt? One of the most powerful creatures she has ever come across, possibly one of the closest in terms of the Final Shape, and it feels guilt? A stench of regret, a smear of wishing! Wishing what? Wishing to do more? What could this walking puppet of death and Light wish they could do, when they could do anything they so desired with their Light?

"Stop." A voice speaks, rough with edge. Of a veteran, of someone not so easily fooled.

Savathun's emotion surges, she feels her worm claw at it, but she tamps it down. The Guardian spoke to her! But about what? What do they mean stop?

A grunt could be heard from beneath the carapace helm of the Guardian, and Savathun looks more properly. Her thinking has flooded the room with her thoughts, and it seems to antagonize the Guardian.

From the swirling mist of her thoughts, a figure rose. The Guardian readied their weapon, a sleek white and black hand cannon. The shape completely solidifies, and the Guardian nearly drops their weapon out of surprise.

They choke out a word, a name, in their horror. "Cayde?"

Savathun mentally leans forward, a contemplative grin lacing her lips. She wills the green mist to dissipate.

The mist and the figure borne from it disappear leaving the Guardian to think for a moment before holstering their weapon and turning towards the portal.

Before they stepped through the Guardian calls in a angry voice, their robes whistling in furious undulation. "That was a foul trick. Be wary, O Witch Queen. For I know what tricks you may play."

The Witch Queen's eyes all narrow. What? What could they possibly talking about?

At that moment, Mara Sov enters the chambers, the Techeuns appearing shortly after. They sense the hostile aura and turn to the Guardian who has stepped aside to allow Mara Sov through.

Mara Sov gazes at the Guardian's helmet, aimed at the Witch Queen. It does not help that their aura betrays their intent. If the Witch Queen makes a wrong move before they stepped out, they would destroy the Witch Queen, prison, flesh and bone. All of it.

Stasis crackles around the Guardian's fingertips. Before disappearing away. They step through the portal, and are seen no more.

Mara Sov turns to Savathun and asks. "What was that all about?"

"A misunderstanding." Savathun lies easily through her teeth. She had gained an understanding.

Now. Who is 'Cayde?'

SAW THE REVEAL TRAILER

AND HOLY F*CK???

THEN I JUMPED ON TO PLAY SEASON 15 AND-

DOUBLE HOLY F*CK???

*cough* Lakshmi-2 got what she f*ckin' deserved

*slides tf out*

(No idea where I found this but credit to the maker I guess?)

YW at Crow, signing: Oh dear, oh dear, gorgeous

YW years ago at Uldren about the Black Garden: You f*cking *unintelligible curse words*

Love Inazuma

Hate the difficulty cap

Love Raiden Shogun

Hate. Hate these random f*cking ronins

Love the story

Hate half the Inazuma weapons cause trash skills

All in all:

I can just imagine a scenario between my YW and Lakshmi just being full of either subtle threats or *So much as mock a friend in front of me and I'll knock your head 360° like your neck is on a swivel*

One day YW is chilling in the Eliksni Wing of the HELM and is doing little puppet shows for the baby Eliksni. The puppets are made of Stasis Ice and it's pretty safe in general. Zavala and Ikora, even a little Crow being waddled around by YW as the babies giggle in glee.

Lakshmi walks in, intent on trying to convert the YW to her side, maybe to get her desired outcome for her prediction, and sees the puppet show. She stops at the railing and sees a discarded ice puppet, with a head slightly resembling her own. Lakshmi resolves to come back later.

Later, the YW is chilling in the HELM, by the table. All is calm, and then Lakshmi walks in. YW is leaning against the railing at the end looking over the city, slightly fumbling with something in their hands. Lakshmi makes it to the table and leans against it and open hers mouth.

That was a mistake.

YW immediately turns around, the yarn instead of ice puppet dropping from their hands and their hands instead grasping onto Lakshmi's collar of her robes. YW, being a Guardian, is naturally taller than Lightless Civilians, so they look menacing glaring down at Lakshmi.

YW huffs and sets her down, and retrieves the abandoned doll.

Lakshmi opens her mouth once again. "Guardian, I understand your hatred-" She stops as she noticed the doll is a little version of herself, two needles protruding from it. One in the center of the forehead, another through the heart.

YW walks towards Lakshmi and drops the doll on the table beside her, they take one step towards her and she takes one step back.

When the YW speaks, everyone listens. They rarely speak, the only ones to hear their voice are close friends. The Speaker, Zavala, Ikora, Mithrax, Crow... And Cayde-6. Their voice is usually full of resolve and is unwavering.

But if you were on the other end of it, being threatened by it, is another thing. It is cold and sharp, the resolve feeling like knifes against skin, the unwavering sending shivers down your spine. Being spoken to like this, make sure you hope someone prays that the Traveler has mercy on you, because the YW will not.

Their voice makes Lakshmi flinch in terror, her body trembling, of course she tries to repress it, but she can't help herself.

The YW, slayer of gods and kings, the doer of things impossible, is terrifying when they're angry.

Lakshmi flinches again, of course, even Uldren Sov knows this anger, he and his Barons were on the other end of it, and none survived.

YW speaks. "Lay your hands on the Eliksni with the intent to harm, and no one, not even your silly predictions, will save you from my wrath." Their voice is cold, a voice of a veteran, a chilling tone of too many horrors seen and done.

Lakshmi never returned to the HELM after that.

Lakshmi: I see you as a friend Guardian-

YW: AND I SEE YOU AS A B*TCH-

*RELOADS SHOTGUN WITH MALICIOUS INTENT*

Bonus gif found on my friend's Discord server:

When I see people appreciate Keqing now, I'm just:

"NOW YOU NOTICE HER???"

Me *loading into the tower after hearing Lakshmi's most recent broadcast*: Man, Lakshmi would use anything to tip the balance of power in her favor huh?

*Sees spooky Taken orbs everywhere*

Me: What. THE FUCK-

My mind *running through the most recent lore looking for connections*:

Update: I combined the forces of Albedo and Klee to see what kind of havoc the siblings could do and...

Dear God help us all

I hit 23k with Albedo and Klee combined

What is this power

I said in a previous post's tag that I wouldn't roll Klee because her attacks are not for me...

I was upping my pity and at exactly the soft pity of 76...

This game refuses for me to get Xiao I swear to-

Based on a possible Xiao re-run, my mind has gone and come up with this:

I've been restraining myself from saying it but...

I'll gladly jump on the boat of "Lakshmi's boutta catch these f*cking hands."

That's it. I'm knocking Lakshmi-2's head clean off their shoulders.

Traveler: Yesterday I accidentally kicked Albedo in the face, and I couldn't decide between saying "I'm sorry" and "Are you okay?"

Traveler: So I panicked and yelled "Are you sorry!?"

Traveler: It took him an hour to get up, and Childe still hasn't stopped laughing at me...

So...

That part two of Zhongli's quest huh.

That was just...

Wow.

And the boss? With the history between them and Zhongli and-

I think I need to tag this as slight reveal, yeah?

Honestly felt the same way about the We Will Be Reunited Quest a couple weeks back, totally got shocked just as hard then as I did now, amazing storytelling as always.

*Albedo, opening the door*: Sorry I'm late, I was... doing things

*Xinyan rushing in, disheveled*: He pushed me down the f*cking stairs!

Albedo: Pushed is such a strong word... I prefer to call it... 'Giving you a little nudge.'

Xinyan: Oh I'll give you a little nudge when I shove my foot up your ass!

*Albedo, pointing to Keqing and Traveler*: HEY! Watch your f*cking language in front of the presidents.

(Honestly this is what I think of everytime I use Xinyan's elemental burst on Albedo's flower elevator and I accidentally fall afterwards :P)

Update: I managed to get in and start pulling

Didn't get Xiao, got dupe Keqing
