Hi, i need some Karno comfort (*_ _)ไบบ Some cuddles with him humming a lullaby and some forehead kisses with some exam reassurance. Thank you very much! You are a wonderful person โค
"Believe in yourself"
Genre: comfort
Warnings: none
A/N: I believe in you! You'll do great, sweetie!! I'm sure you've worked hard and will succeed. I love you๐๐
You rubbed your eyelids and then stretched your shoulders. Your body was sore from sitting in the same place for hours.
You rose from your chair and made your way to the bathroom, wetting your toothbrush and applying toothpaste on it.
You were lost in thought, while brushing your teeth, staring into the mirror with a tired look and your eyelids falling from the weight.
Your hand began to slow more and more, until it stopped moving completely, your toothbrush staying in place on your teeth and you closed your eyes.
"(Name)...?"
You hummed sleepily at the male voice that called out to you.
"My ophelia, you're sleeping on your feet." Karno sighed and rubbed your back soothingly. "Have you been studying until late at night again?"
You nodded and wordlessly began brushing your teeth again.
Apparently, at some point during your sleepy daze, you didn't notice him coming into the house at all. Your brain was so tired, you barely comprehended what was around you.
Once you finished, you washed off the toothpaste and set the toothbrush back into the cup by the mirror.
Karno placed his big hand on your head and stroked your hair softly, making you smile at the contact. "Come on, let's go to bed."
"Are you staying here tonight?"
"Yes, I missed you, so I came." He said, genuinely.
He led you to the bedroom and as you crawled into bed, he stared at you and with a little sadness in his voice, he spoke. "Please, take care of your health." He joined you beneath the blanket, wrapping his arms around you. "Think of it this way: if you're not healthy, you won't be able to focus on your goals."
"Alright, I promise to take better care of myself." You said. "But lately, my mind's been all about exams, I can barely sleep from this stress in my stomach."
Karno tightened his hold around you, placing a kiss to your forehead and you closed your eyes to enjoy it fully. "Everything will be fine." He whispered against the skin of your forehead, his voice gentle and calming. "You studied for this and you've worked hard. You deserve a break. I know it's not the easiest, but I want you to believe in yourself, you'll do great."
You nuzzled your nose into his chest and laid your head on his arm. The bed felt so comfy and his arms were so warm, it was exactly what you needed all those days.
Silence ruled for some time, his breathing the only thing that cut it. And then, he started humming. He hummed a rhythm constructed by his vocal cords and you smiled sleepily against his chest at the sound.
You felt the vibrations of his lullaby through his body and his breaths were like added instruments to his song.
He hummed a rhythm you've heard before, but sleepy as you were, you couldn't remember which one it was. You just knew you loved it and Karno had payed attention to you long enough to remember.
"Ka... Rno..." You called out his name amount your cloudy mind and the information that began to fade in your mind.
"Yes, my ophelia?"
"Will you stay... Stay with... Me?"
Karno smiled down at your nearly sleeping and defenseless form, stroking you back. "Of course. Enjoy your sleep, you deserve it."
i will not lie, friends in my phone, i have been imagining affection from time to time
This is gold! ๐ญ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
A family doesn't need to be a husband, a wife, a daughter, and a son.
Sometimes a family is a group of star-based zodiac celestial beings that consists of:
a fish themed celestial being who lost their immortality and takes YOLO too literally
a war-torn human turned god
a demi-god (who found out late in the story that he was adopted)
the wine aunt who is still grieving their ex and may also be the god of wisdom/clairvoyance but can't make a smart decision
the strawberry cow song + bitch im a cow song personified and merged with parental issues
a god who sleeps through anything, and everything, and owns 200+ squishmallows
the slayyy girlboss gaslight gatekeep demon spawn pretending to be holy
the dude who may have accidentally summoned the ultimate evil and feels an endless amount of guilt about it, the consequences of this event accidentally creating more cycles of punishment. They also have a ponytail
a god whose mental health is a broken mirror and will have a breakdown if any minor inconvenience happens like dropping their slice of pie on the ground also hes like 2?? ppl
a crab who likes keychains
a dude who can feel the heat of his past actions
an allmighty god with enough power to wipe reality at a snap of his fingers and happens to have the personality of a cat stuck in a tree
and their ex-god turned human friend with an affinity for the stars, that they harass on a weekly basis after work hours.
I love dysfunctional found families
all i can imagine is that one vine of the dude climbing on top of the fridge and saying 'this house is a fucking nightmare' in each story all 13 of these mfs are in the mansion.
"Nooo, he baby๐ฅบ๐ฅบ!"
โI say as I hug my 300 year old husband.
Karno is second on the rankings.
Voltage, I refuse to believe you think the SCM fandom is dead. You're deliberately ignoring us.
You could've made more money if only you payed attention to the rest of your fans begging for more content. My brain's the size of a bean and works like a potato. I sometimes mess up while counting up to 20. One time I wanted to spray my glasses to clean them and I ended up spraying my eyes. And I'm over here... Noticing your terrible decision making. Shame on you, I don't even know how to find my way from one floor to the other in a building without getting lost, much less manage a business and I'm here, telling you you're doing it wrong.
Karno did it!!! He won the leading men awards! Dui came fourth!
New 3-Part Karno story incoming!
(As for the other SCM chars in the final? They finished 24th (Leon), 25th (Zyglavis), 26th (Scorpio), and 31st (Huedhaut)
Just another 420 votes would have got Hue into the top 30 as well (and at exactly 30th he would have got a mini message wallpaper. Oh well))
ETA: โฆ Just realised something. Not only did Karno win he won by 164,239 votes!

Scorpio โ- Forever and Always
A/N: Hello, sweetie โค I tried my best. Hope you like this story. ๐ฅบ๐น
I walked slowly towards the door, making sure to walk away unnoticed. As i stepped outside, i felt the cool air softly brushing against my cheeks. I took a deep breath, relaxing my shoulders which hurt slightly after spending most of the day in preparation of the ceremony.
The stars were slowly illuminating the sky.
I walked aimlessly for sometime before heading towards the forest, when i noticed the enchanted lake, whose water was glowing with a mild blue light. The stars being reflected on its surface, like diamonds.
As i walked closer, i felt the presence of an aura, which was still at its early stage of development.
I halted trying to get a closer look at the figure, but he was facing his back towards me. Waiting there for a few minutes, debating whether i should just turn back and walk to the palace or snap my fingers; i decided to walk forward.
Sensing my energy, the man turned around.
To my relief, it was Scorpio. He smiled at me, " ( Name), what are you doing here? "
" I just wanted to get some fresh air ", which wasn't a complete lie, after all walking in the forest felt a lot better than smiling at another guest and occasionally answering questions; while father spoke to them.
" What are you doing here?" i asked.
" It felt suffocating, being surrounded by so many people", he replied pointing towards the palace. A wry smile graced on his lips as he said that.
Unsure of what to say, i asked, "Can i sit there?"
" Yes of course ", he replied promptly. As i sat beside him, he slightly shifted as if unsure about sitting beside me; even though there was enough space between us.
The leaves of the trees rustled softly. Moonlight being reflected in the water, ever so brightly by each passing minute. Peaceful silence fell upon us.
"How have you been lately? ", i asked. He remained silent for a few seconds," I am alright. I ... ", instead of continuing, he looked down at his hands, curled up on his lap.
"Scorpio?", my voice laced with concern as i placed my hand on his shoulder, " What happened?"
There was a strange glimmer in his eyes as he looked at me. " I don't think, i should... be here."
" What happened? Did someone say something to you or hurt you?", i asked trying my best to suppress the rage that was building up in my heart at the thought of someone hurting my beloved friend. "Father will punish those who have wronged you", i added; to reassure him that he had nothing to be afraid of.
" No, nobody has said or done anything against me, here. On the contrary, most people have helped me and for those who are envious of my position,... they have maintained their distance. " he paused, taking a deep breath, " I just feel like, i shouldn't be here. I am just a nobody after all, who was mortal few years ago."
His eyes were focused on the trees behind me, "His Majesty, has been kind enough to honor me with a place in one of the departments but i know that i don't deserve it. It should go to, someone deserving, someone," he once again looked down at his hands, " ...someone special. "
Placing my fingers under his chin, i gently turned his face towards me, "Scorpio..., i don't think i or anyone can fully comprehend what you have been through or how you are feeling, but i want you to know that nothing can take away your value as a person. Nobody can determine what you deserve or what you don't. You are a hard working person, a capable vice minister." My voice was filled with admiration as i said that.
" You are special in your own unique ways. " i added looking deep into his inky black eyes, which held the most breathtaking pairs of stars.
Scorpio looked away as if debating something deep in his soul. His hand slipped into the pocket of his trouser and retrieved a small black box.
Looking at me, he whispered, "I have been meaning to tell you something for a while."
" I love you ", he said. His hand slightly trembled as he extended the box towards me. Beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead as he struggled to find the right words. The presumption that i have rejected him evident on his face.
Little did he knew that my heart was pounding in my chest as i heard him utter those words.
I quickly took the box in my hands, hoping he wouldn't get the wrong idea. His shoulders relaxed as he asked me to open it.
The box contained a gorgeous pair of anklets, made out of pure gold. Little flower patterns were embellished on it with small rubbies placed at the centre of each flower.
" Where did you find these? ", i asked, astonished. Knowing that none of the goldsmiths in heaven make this kind of anklets.
He replied rather sheepishly, " I was send to Earth on a mission, there i saw these and... i thought they will look wonderful on you." His face grew hot; red as an apple. I couldn't help but smile at the adorable expression on his face.
" Thank you", i said and placed a soft kiss on his cheek; his face became redder.
" Will you help me put them on, Scorpio?"
Instead of replying, he went down on his knees. He untied the laces of my shoes. Unclasping one of the anklets, he placed it around my ankle and clasped it on. He did the same with the other anklet. His eyes lingered on them as he was tying the laces of my shoes, " Gorgeous " he said.
He set a delicate kiss on my right leg. He looked up anticipating me to halt him and tell him, he had crossed the line. Instead i smiled at him. Tenderly caressing my skin, he planted more kisses. Each touch sending shivers down my spine. Placing a final kiss on my knees, he sat stood up.
Once he sat down beside me, i intertwined my fingers with his. Leaning on his shoulder, i asked, " Will you come to visit father tomorrow?"
Hearing my question, his shoulders slightly tensed, after all being in the presence of The King made even the most powerful Gods nervous and even more so, if they happen to be in love with his one and only daughter.
Scorpio cleared his throat and replied, " I will if you want me too." I couldn't help myself from giggling at the way he tried to appear fearless, even though his voice betrayed him.
Once he realised that i was only teasing him, he chuckled as well.
We decided to spend some more time in each other's company and stayed in the forest watching the sky bring new stars with each passing hour.
A/N: Thank you for reading! ๐งก If you enjoyed reading this, please drop in some requests, the inbox is empty.
I don't think i feel comfortable enough to try that on my bae ๐
It's canon that when a human drinks poison meant for a god, it works as an aphrodisiac and doesn't kill them.
But is it the same case for gods and human poison?
Like- will you feed a god rat poison and he'll start blasting "Careless Whisper"?

SCM- DEPARTMENT OF PUNISHMENT
SCORPIO โ- In My Arms
A/N: Hi!! ๐ฅบ๐ I hope you are feeling better. ๐๐๐
You walked home as quickly as you could. The pain intensifying with each step you took. Just few more minutes and i will be home, you thought trying your best to ignore the pain.
You placed your bag on the sofa and quickly went to the bathroom. The hot shower relaxed not only your body but also your mind.
You came back to the living room and collected your bag, bringing it to your room. You wanted to go to bed but there was homework to do. So you decided to quickly do your homework and then relax.
Time went by swiftly as your wrote in your notebook. Before you realized, it was already 7.30 pm. After arranging you books for tomorrow, you went to the kitchen to make yourself a cup of tea.
Pouring the tea in a cup, you added some honey in to it. You placed some of your favorite cookies on a plate and placed it on the tray beside the cup of tea.
Once your were sitting comfortably on the sofa, wrapped in your favorite blanket, your turned on the TV. Slowly you took a sip from the cup. Your body relaxed a bit, as the pain subsided.
Focusing your attention at the TV, you drank the rest of the tea and ate a few cookies.
-
The clock showed 8 pm. " You should take rest." a stern yet gentle voice said. Scorpio turned around to see, Zyglavis who was waiting for him to finish administering the punishments on his list.
"Just, few more minutes."Scorpio said in a apologetic tone. The corners of Zyglavis's lips curled up as he heard that.
-
Scorpio knocked on the window of your room. The lights were turned off and there was no answer. He waited for a few minutes, thinking that maybe you haven't heard the sound. He knocked again. But once again there was no response.
He snapped his fingers; opening the window. Carefully he walked to the living room to find you sleeping on the sofa.
He placed a packet on the table and snapped his fingers to turn off the TV.
"(Name)?", he said softly running his fingers through your hair.
"Hmmm." you mumbled as you struggled to open your eyes.
Looking up you found yourself staring at those gorgeous eyes, which held the most breathtaking pair of stars within them. The tiredness vanished from your body and you sat up.
Scorpio sat beside you. There was a mischievous look in his eyes as he smiled at you. "Is there something on my face?" You asked suddenly self-conscious of yourself.
The smile on his face only brightened as he slowly untied your hair. A hair brush appeared in his hand as he snapped his fingers.
With gentle hands and soft brush strokes, he neatly brushed your hair. It was becoming difficult to keep your eyes open, as your body grew more and more relaxed under his touch.
" (Name)?", his voice tenderly brought you out of your drowsiness. " Hmmm ", you responded.
"Don't fall asleep love." he said tying your hair with a ribbon," You need to eat."
Once again he snapped his fingers and the hair brush disappeared.
" I don't feel like cooking. " you said yawning. " You don't have to. I brought some of your favorite food for us." You finally noticed the packet sitting on the table.
He snapped his fingers and two plates along with two spoons appeared on the table. The delicious aroma filled the room as he took some of the (food name) on the plate. Picking some (food name) on the spoon he brought it to your lips.
The corners of his lips curled up as he witnessed how your eyes lit up as you took the first bite. " Delicious!" You said as you took another spoonful of (food name) in your mouth. " I am glad you like it." he said.
He took the rest of the ( food name ) on his plate and ate it. Once you both had finished brushing your teeth and doing your night-time skincare routine, you decided to watch one of your favorite movies.
Wrapping the blanket around the two of you, you leaned on his shoulder. "(Name), do you think they will meet again?" Scorpio slowly voiced the question.
" Yes, they will. It might seem difficult but their friendship has influenced their lives in positive ways. They will be reunited." you replied.
Various emotions flashed on their faces. Happiness at finally finding him, followed by sudden anger that he didn't inform them before leaving, and ultimately relief as the three of them hugged each other vowing to stay friends until the end of their days.
The credits rolled on accompanied by a song.
You gazed at Scorpio who had his eyes glued to the screen. A single tear feel down his cheek and he smiled. Like the sun on a spring day, looking at the crops on the fields.
You placed your arms around his neck and softly kissed his cheek. " Let's go to bed." you voice coming out in the form of a gentle wishper.
He picked you in his arms and carried your to your room. He placed your on the bed, before lying beside you. You snuggled close to his chest as he started humming a tune. Soon you drifted off into deep sleep.
Karno my love ๐โค
Ask your man if he prefers the Heavens or the Earth and if he doesn't say "It depends where you are", I think you should start a fight

Small droplets of water dripped down the glass window. Cold morning breeze brushed against the leaves of the trees. The fire continued to burn brightly in the fireplace, keeping the surroundings warm.
Tauxolouve walked in the living room, carrying a tray. Two ceramic cups and some cookies were placed on a plate.
"(Name)?"
You look up from the book. Quickly putting a bookmark, you placed it on your lap.
"Thank you", you said as a peaceful sigh escaped from your lips, "delicious as always."
He smiled at your words and took a sip from his cup. You looked at the window and then at the wall clock, which showed 3.35 AM.
" Sweetheart." His honeyed voice brought you back from your thoughts. You couldn't help but voice your concerns, "I can barely see anything outside. Are you sure the weather is appropriate...", you paused before adding "for taking pictures?"
For a slight fraction of second there was some uneasiness in his eyes but he quickly brushed away those thoughts and replied, " If we reach there by 4 AM; i will surely be able to capture some beautiful photos."
You nodded your head in agreement.
Thick fog covered the narrow road, which made driving nearly impossible.
Tauxolouve opened the car's door. We were a bit surprised to see that nobody had yet arrived at the top of the hill. We walked forward; our fingers intertwined with each other's. Some cars were slowly climbing up.
With each passing minute, the fog was becoming denser, swallowing the mountain. The trees started disappearing to the point, where the lower part of the enormous mountain seems to be covered by a thick greenish blanket.
Looking down at the road, you saw the cars standing still, lining up one after another. Few people got out of the cars and started walking towards the top of the hill.
Tauxolouve looked at his wrist watch.
You placed your hand on his shoulder. He turned to look at you, and for a brief moment the determination in his eyes seemed to falter. His eyes losing some of the warmth in them.
Most people who arrived at the spot seemed disappointed. Some of them decided to wait.
Minutes turned into an hour.
"Such a waste of time", a girl said to her mother, " i can't believe you woke me up for this so early in the morning."
Another 15 minutes had passed. The weather showed no signs of improvement.
Now there was only one family standing there with you and Tauxolouve. Most cars were gone, aside from a few who were determined to get a glimpse of the heavenly light.
Beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead as he once again looked at the watch. Time was running out from his fingers like sand.
Was he going to lose another golden opportunity? Perhaps he should have gone elsewhere; he pondered. It was too late to think about these things.
" Mom, dad how long do we have to wait?" the boy asked his parents.
" (Name), we should leave." Tauxolouve wishpered. " I am sorry for bringing you here in this weather. "
His voice, so lifeless that it made your heart shatter. Still his bright smile did not leave his face. He was trying his best to not look disappointed.
As you two were about to walk back to the car, the boy shouted, "Mom look", pointing at the sky , "the Sun".
True to his words, the clouds were slowly making the way for the Sun. Soon rays from heaven fell on Earth. The golden light being reflected from the snowy mountain peak, making it shine like a diamond.
Tauxolouve wasted no time and quickly captured the breathtaking sight in his camera. The sight so divine that it filled your heart with bliss.
Tauxolouve hugged you tightly before picking you up in his arms and kissing you deeply. " I love you. " he wishpered. " I love you too. " you said as you placed a tender kiss on his forehead.
The heartfelt moment passed away and Tauxolouve was back to his usual self.
" Let's celebrate, my sweet lady. " the teasing tone in his honeyed voice was too hard to ignore. Taking his hand in yours, you two walk back to the car.

5th February, 2024
~~~
Sitting on the sofa, your phone in one hand and the other hand massaging your forehead, you pondered what to do first.
Your brother had just informed you about the sudden business trip that he has to attend. Time was running out as the clock showed 4 PM.
Taking a quick shower, you were brushing your hair; when the door bell started ringing. "( Name ), i am terribly sorry. If i had known earlier..." you brother explained.
"No, no it's alright. Don't worry, i will take care of Luna." you said, " You should get going. The traffic is terrible after 5 PM." you hugged him.
"Call me when you get there."
"I will, sis. Thanks." he said; quickly walking back to his car.
"Aunt, how are you? Do you have fever?" Luna asked, concerned. "No sweetie, i am alright." you said, smiling brightly, trying to ignore the headache.
"Do you want to watch a movie?" you asked.
"Will you not watch the movie?" she asked as you were walking to the kitchen. " I will, but first i need to prepare dinner. What would you like to eat?" you asked.
Luna shook her head and replied, "I am not sure. You pick something."
The door bell rang, as you were about to chopping some vegetables. Luna answered the door. "Aunt, your cool friend is here." she announced at the top of her lungs. Coming back to the living room, you saw Luna holding Tauxolouve's hand and leading him to the sofa.
She sat down next to him. "How are you?" she asked him excitedly. "I am doing well. How are you?" he asked.
The conversation continued. You decided to quickly finish cooking dinner, while they were talking.
6.50 PM, you walked back to the living room, carrying a tray, which contained three bowls and three spoons. Each bowl covered with a lid.
The movie had ended and the Television was turned off. Tauxolouve was reading Luna a story. Each delightful question she asked about the story, was answered in an equally enthusiastic manner.
Setting the tray on the table you said, "Dinner is ready." Luna looked up at you slightly disappointed, as according to her the story had just started to get interesting.
"10 minutes please. We can eat after that." she said looking up at you with that puppy eyed expression. "But, Tauxolouve is tired. He will read you the story later. " you said trying to reason with her.
She looked up at Tauxolouve who assured her that he isn't tired and resumed the story. Sitting next to Luna, you closed your eyes; resting your head on the sofa.
"Aunt? Wake up." Luna was softly tapping on your left hand. You softly rubbed your eyes. " What time is it?" you asked.
"7.46 PM." Tauxolouve replied. Quickly opening your eyes, you saw Tauxolouve, bringing a glass of warm water.
"You fell asleep. You looked tired, so we didn't want to wake you up. Uncle Louie fed me. The food was delicious, aunt. Thank you. " she said smiling at you.
Handing the glass to Luna, Tauxolouve sat on the sofa. You and Tauxolouve were eating in silence when Luna asked with a bright enthusiastic smile plastered on her face, "Will you sing some lullabies, uncle Louie?"
"Sweetie, he had a lot of work today. He needs to rest", You quickly add, "Maybe some other time." In hopes of pursuing her to change her mind.
"Uncle Louie?" Luna held Tauxolouve's hand and used the same puppy eyed expression all over again, "Please sing something for me. Just one song... please."
Her adorable expression and pleading tone worked its magic and soon Tauxolouve found himself looking at a book full of lyrics.
Brushing her hair, you braided it with a navy blue ribbon which matched her dress perfectly.
You tucked her in bed. As you were about to sit on the chair next to the bed, Luna held your hand. "Aunt, will you not stay here with me? What if there are ghosts under the bed?" she said slightly shivering at the thought of horrible creatures lurking under the bed.
You lied down beside her. She turned on her side and wrapped her hands around your left arm.
Tauxolouve began singing softly. The mellow tone of his voice filled the room with warmth. The words, soft as clouds filled in, by his honeyed voice, tenderly guiding you and Luna to dreamland.
By the time the song reached its conclusion, you and Luna were asleep.
Tauxolouve picked the chair and placed it infront of the study table. Keeping the book in the shelf; he turned off the light. Gently closing the door; he walked back to the living room.

7th February, 2024
~~~
Cool breeze flowed inside the kitchen from the window. The sky turning a bright shade of orange as the Sun was gradually setting.
The finely chopped onions, and potatoes cut in half made sizzling sounds, coming in contact with the hot oil on the saucepan.
-
"Thank you." Scorpio said as he paid the shopkeeper. Putting the box in his bag, he walked to the railway station.
-
You were busy setting the table; as your eyes wandering to the wall clock over and over again.
The restlessness in your heart increasing with each passing minute. For 3 months you have waited patiently. But now this pain feels unbearable.
Suddenly the ringing sound of the doorbell was heard. Finally, he is here.
You opened the door as rapidly as you could and hugged him tightly. Almost making him stumble.
Scorpio chuckled and picked you in his arms; tenderly kissing you.
"I missed you." you said, the overwhelming feeling of separation coating your voice. Scorpio held you against his chest,"I missed you too, love." He was better at hiding his emotions. You two stayed in each other's embrace for a few minutes, before slowly letting go.
"Something smells delicious." he commented as he walked in the living room. "It's a surprise, sir." you said jokingly. "Alright then." he replied cheerfully.
-
Scorpio walked into the dining room. His hair was still slightly wet. Few drops of water dripped down from them and soaked into his white shirt, whose two buttons from the top were kept open.
He sat down on a chair. You sat next to him.
Taking a spoonful of Biriany, he brought the spoon to his lips. Closing his eyes he softly chewed. The corner of his lips curled up,"I haven't had a home cooked meal in months", pausing to take another spoonful of Biriany in his mouth. " Thank you for cooking, love." You had known about his love for Biriany for a long time.
"I hope this is to your liking as well." saying that you filled a glass with Pomegranate juice from the pitcher.
His eyes lit up seeing the reddish liquid in the glass. Pomegranate was one of his favorite fruits, after all. And to get fresh Pomegranate juice, after three whole months of almost fasting and surviving off junk food, he indeed considered himself to be fortunate.
"I can't thank you enough." he said as he chugged down the glass of juice.
Once you two had finished eating, he helped you with washing the dishes. Deciding to continue your conversation in a much relaxed space, you lead him to your bedroom.
He wrapped his arm around you as you leaned your head against his shoulder. "How are you? How is work going on?" he asked.
"I am fine...," you sighed, "as fine as i can be without you. As for work, some students are dropping out."
"How long will you stay here?" you asked. The concern about his well-being too evident in your voice.
He remained silent for a few seconds,"Probably a week." Neither of you knew how to continue the conversation from there. He couldn't promise you anything. He knew that deep in his heart. And the one thing that you prayed for; every passing moment of the day, was his safety. That was all you wanted.
As a war correspondent, he never knew when or if he will ever see you again. Or the letter he sends to you, at the end of each month, is going to be the last one you ever receive from him. These thoughts clouded his mind, until he noticed his bag kept on the study table.
He opened the bag and took out a gift wrapped box and handed it to you. "Open it." he said.
A gorgeous silk dress, blue in colour, awaited for you. The fabric cool against your hand as you held it. " This is expensive!" you exclaimed. Your voice filled with slight panic as you knew, without a doubt, that a dress like this would cost a fortune.
"Why? How?" were the only two words that came out of your mouth.
Scorpio placed his hands on your shoulders, "Today is our 4th anniversary. I wanted to propose to you, but considering the current circumstances, i can't promise you a future... yet."
"I love you. I can't imagine a life without you. I don't know what tomorrow holds for us but for today let us be happy. " he said, holding your hands in his, trying his best to hold back the tears that threatened to overflow.
"I love you too." you said and kissed him.
The tiredness slowly desended as your eyelids started to feel heavy. He too felt the need to rest after the tiresome journey of the day.
Lying next to you, he started stroking your hair. No matter what happens tomorrow, you two will always have each other's company, with this promise you drifted off to sleep. Soon enough he fell asleep as well.

The rain poured down from the sky, like water flowing down from waterfalls. Not a single soul could be seen outdoors.
Leaning against the wall a man stood with a pen and some papers in his hands. His gaze was focused at the sight of the falling rain.
What was he thinking, Leon wondered? Placing his hand on Karno's should he asked, "What's on your mind?"
Karno stood motionless, as if only his physical form was present there; his mind was elsewhere. Leon tapped on his shoulder.
Karno finally replied,"I have been thinking about her...a lot." His honest answer brought a smile on Leon's lips.
"Why don't you tell her, how you feel?" Leon suggested.
"I will." Karno replied nodding his head in agreement. "But first i need to grant the wishes on these lists."
Leon knew how serious Karno was about his responsibilities since childhood. So Karno's answer brought a delightful smile on his face. He softly patted Karno on his back and said, "Well of course."
-
Karno sighed as the last wish on his list disappeared after being granted. As if reading the change in his mood, the images on the reflecting pool shifted; and showed you, walking down the road in a rural area.
Karno snapped his fingers.
Untouched by the rainstorm, this land was dry. The Sun shore brightly, bringing warmth to one's soul as they walked by. Green fields filled one's vision as far as the eyes can see.
An enormous house stood on the right side of the road. It's large glass windows reflecting the sunlight.
Standing there Karno pondered whether he should go inside or not. He still had the chance to leave after all, didn't he? Not a single soul would know that he came here.
"Karno?!" a delicately, soothing voice brought him out of his thoughts. You walked upto him.
A lighthearted smile graced on your lips, "Why are you standing outside?" you asked. Before Karno could reply you took his hand in yours; leading him inside the house.
"Make yourself comfortable." you said. As you were walking to the kitchen,"I will bring some tea and snacks."
The delightful aroma spread across the room as you walked in. Two cups of tea and some cookies on one plate and some chips on the other were on the tray; which you kept on the table.
You sat next to him on the sofa. "I hope you like our special tea." you said.
His face lit up as he took the first sip. "Thank you for the tea." A thankful smile adorned his face.
"Is there something you wanted to tell me?" you asked. There was a strange feeling in your heart. A combination of hope, fear and excitement. Whatever he was about to say is extremely important, you thought.
"I wanted to tell you about my feelings." He peered at you, carefully noticing, each and every expression that crossed face. His intention was to share his feelings, not to scare you or to make you uncomfortable.
Kneeling in front of you, he snapped his fingers. A vibrant rose, blue in colour appeared in his hand. " (Name), i love you." His gaze locking into yours.
"Don't feel pressured to accept my feelings. Do what your heart tells you." he said as the reassuring smiled appeared on his lips. The stars glowing brighter in those warm, gentle eyes.
Kneeling down infront of him, you wrapped your arms around his shoulder and hugged him. "I love you too." you said as you accepted the rose; putting it in your braid.
" How do i look, sweetheart?" you asked in a flirtatious tone. "Breathtakingly gorgeous." he replied earnestly as he softly kissed you.

The bag hung low on your back, as if all the weight of the world was on your shoulders. Why did the bag feel so heavy on days when there was a lot of work to do? You wondered.
Opening the door and dropping the bag on the sofa you sat down. Hands resting on your side, eyes closed, head leaning against the backrest of the sofa. You inhaled and exhaled until you felt a bit better.
You took a quick shower. Brushed your hair, putting it in a loose ponytail. Staring at your own reflection in the mirror, you notices the dark circles that have started to form under your eyes. Your lips looked slightly pale and chapped. Putting on some moisturizer; you went back to the living room to collect your bag.
Bringing it in your room.
-
The reflecting pool was softly glowing, as the wishes were being swiftly granted one by one.
"You seem to be, in a hurry." Aigonorus commented.
"I am going out with, (Name) tonight." Tauxolouve replied before directing his attention back, at the paper in his hand.
Aigonorus nodded his head, "Where are you two going?" he asked.
"We haven't decided yet. But there is a movie that she was telling me about last month." The corners of his lips curled up as soon as the words escaped from his lips.
They stayed silent for the next half an hour.
"Have fun." Aigonorus said smiling; as Tauxolouve was about to leave. "We will." Tauxolouve said, smiling back at Aigonorus.
-
You slowly opened the door. A bright smile adorned his face. But that smile soon disappeared as his eyes fell on you. You smiled at him; still the tiredness was visible on your face.
He walked in the living room, softly closing the door behind him. You broke the silence, "I am sorry. We got some assignments today. I will need at least 4 hours to write all of that. I can't go out tonight." You apologized. The plans were made three weeks ago, when you both found a little off time in your respective schedules.
"Don't apologize, little lady." Tauxolouve softly caressed your face,"Moreover i wanted to spend some time with you; whether we go out or not." His voice was reassuring.
You nodded your head; unsure of what to say. This is not how you had, envisioned to spend the evening with Tauxolouve. But you were not complaining. How could you after all? Not seeing him for three weeks had been more agonizing than you were willing to admit. You gently hugged him.
The window was partially open, allowing the soft glow of the setting Sun into the room.
The generally organized study table, was messy. Three books, an opened notebook and a few pens and pencil were scattered on it.
Picking a book from the shelf, Tauxolouve sat down on another chair. You sat on your chair and started writing.
Time flew by swiftly; six more pages and it will be done. "( Name )?" Tauxolouve softly called out your name, offering you a glass of warm water. Taking the glass from him, you drank the water slowly.
Ten minutes later, you closed your notebook, books, and pen. Yawning, you stretched your arms a bit.
You walked downstairs and sat down on a chair in the dining room. "What did you get?" you asked.
"Soup, vegarable fried rice... they also told me to take some potato curry, so i bought that too. I wasn't sure what else to get." He replied sheepishly.
"Thank you." you said. You two ate in silence.
Lying on the bed, he started stroking your hair. "How have you been?" you asked.
"I was very busy. Perhaps the most work, i have done in months." He signed softly at the thought of the past three weeks.
"You were looking forward to this date..." you said quietly. "I wish the teachers would have told us sooner about those assignments."
"(Name), i don't want to go on dates, or watch movies, or go to the Cafe, or to the park. I like doing all of that because i get to experience them with you. If you are not there, then none of those activities seem interesting to me anymore." His reply was earnest.
"I wanted to see the movie with you tonight. I don't know when we will get some free time again." you said. Your eyes focused at the ceiling. "I missed you." you added. His cheeks turned a slight shade of red as you said that.
"I missed you too, my darling." He said. You rolled over on your side. Your eyes locking in with his. "I love you." you said softly; bringing your lips to his cheek.
His heart skipped a beat as the stars in his eyes glowed brighter. "I love you too." He said, holding you close. " We can spend some time tomorrow in the afternoon, if you want to." He suggested. "I would love that." you said. "Good night, my love." Was the last thing that you heard as sleep overtook you.

~~~
Soft golden light of the morning Sun crept into the room, from the slight gap between the curtains. Opening his eyes, Scorpio was surprised to see the unfamiliar ceiling. The wall on the right side was light yellow in colour unlike the old wallpaper ridden walls of the small rented room that he had been residing in for the past three months.
Putting the pillows on the chair, and folding the blanket. He dusted the bedsheet before putting it back on the mattress. Putting the pillows and the blanket on one side of the bed he opened the curtains, before opening the window.
He took a deep breath; feeling the morning breeze brush against his face. His heart felt at peace.
Taking a warm shower and brushing his teeth; he walked downstairs to the kitchen.
You were pouring some tea in a cup. "Good morning." He said standing beside you.
"Good morning", you replied smiling,"I hope you don't mind eating oats for breakfast."
"I would love to have oats", he said returning your smile," i just need some Apples."
He washed three Apples; cutting them into small pieces. He took two bowls and filled them with the oats from the pot. Putting the bowls on the tray, beside the cups and the plate full of Apple pieces, he walked out of the kitchen. Setting the tray on the dining table he sat on the chair next to you.
Taking a sip of the warm tea, he asked, " You wrote about someone's wedding reception in the letter..."
"You remember Alice, my cousin", you took a sip from the cup, "she got married last week. Tonight she and her husband have organized a party for both of their families and some close friends. She has invited us...well me, but i would like to go with you." you said. The tone in your voice hopeful.
"It's ok if you don't want to." you added quickly. Scorpio shook his head and smiled,"I would like to go there with you." He was tired, but he wanted to spend sometime with you at a social gathering. After all who knew, this could be the very last one he ever attends.
After finishing your breakfast you washed the dishes and started chopping some vegetables. Scorpio prepared lunch which you two ate in silence around 12 PM.
The rest of the afternoon was spend, sitting on the sofa in the living. He told you how the lives of the ordinary people had been affected, in great details. Details which had not made into the newspaper paper. People were suffering.
-
The party was being held in a ball room of an enormous hotel. The hotel once had many clientele, but now most of it's rooms were empty. The few staff members who still worked there greeted the guests.
Once all the guests had arrived and were introduced to each other. The staff members brought a few musical instruments and started playing. One played the Harp, another the Cello, another the Violin, and another played the Piano.
"Grandma let's dance." a little girl said. Her grandmother was smiled, as the girl lead her, to the middle of the room and started dancing.
Seeing them some of the couples starting dancing as well. Soon Alice held your hand and started dancing. Her light pink dress and your blue dress swinging as you two moved gracefully across the dance floor. Scorpio sat on a chair watching you dance. He was never much of a dance after all.
Alice wishpered something in your ear and you both started laughing. It's been months since you have laughed like that. Scorpio smiled, recalling the memories of the first-time he had ever danced with you. Soon those memories started to fade as a dreadful thought came to his mind.
The song was coming to an end.
Scorpio walked up to you. Offering you his hand,"Will you dance with me, my lady?" He even tried to put on a princely accent, but miserably failed at it, making you and Alice giggle. He smiled, hiding his embarrassment. But his cheeks turned red as soon as you said," That would be my pleasure, sir." Alice laughed; her laughter only made his ears turn redded.
You two danced slowly; in perfect harmony. As the song came to its conclusion, you softly kissed his temple. " I love you." he wishpered. His voice filled with emotions which he found too difficult to express. " I love you too, Scorpio. " you said as a drop of tear slipped from the corner of your eyes, which you quickly brushed away.
Music flowed through the room like breeze; warm and comforting. You took the lead and he followed. The soothing sound brought a sense of peace in your hearts. No matter what tomorrow held, tonight, in this moment both of you were together.
