    Kurushii

    苦しい (kurushii): painful; difficult; agonizing. 10 years ago… Clothes littered the hallway leading to the bedroom. The door itself was left slightly ajar. From within the room a woman’s breathy giggle was cut short by a loud moan, which was then silenced by a man’s low, amused chuckle...

    Open Social Welcome to Starlight

    A smile, partly hidden by the veil, crossed the Knight's face. A flash of nervousness crept from the Padawan but instead of focusing on it, Haldir tuned out the feeling. The young woman should be at ease in joyful gatherings such as this, though he could not help but feel slightly curious. But...

    Open Social Welcome to Starlight

    Starlight, a place now synonymous to home thanks to the efforts of Knight Leon Baudelaire and his friends. A pale hand, fingers wrapped around delicate glass, rose along with the multitude. Head dipping both in recognition and respect for the celebration's host, Haldir lowered the glass of...

    Ask (Not) Just the Two of Us

    The Thakwaash soldiers were taught to keep eye contact with both their fellow warriors and ruffians alike, followed by surreptitious calculated gaze on the other person's whole frame. And although some of them knew how to approach Jedi and their ever favored Mind Trick, the current situation at...

    He didn’t argue against Willa’s plan, trusting that she knew what she was doing. Instead, Haldir focused more on immobilizing Rokesh as he followed the young Thakwaash’ family aboard the Kogitsunemaru. ”I’ll be there when you call,” the Knight told Willa before they parted for the meantime...

    It wasn't the first time he was shot – the scars he received from his days as a Sector Ranger were proof. Still, there was no ignoring the injury as he placed one gloved hand atop the wound on his shoulder, focusing on the Force to at least dull the pain he felt. Haldir thanked the stars that...

    Ask (Not) Just the Two of Us

    Neither Haldir nor Kabish had enough time to smile gratefully at her reassurance (the former) or ponder about her query (the latter). The moment Willa uttered the last syllable to her question, one of Kabish' children stepped out onto the porch. Nothing seemed too out of place at first, the...

    Natsukashii

    _____ His Master was quite cheerful today. There was nothing new about it. The Morellian was practically a walking beam of sunshine most of the time. Haldir still wondered why the Council saw it fit to pair up an incessantly chatty, happy adult and a helplessly introverted, selectively mute...

    Ask (Not) Just the Two of Us

    Though the frown remained on the Thakwaash’ face, the male’s presence in the Force was more curious and grateful. He returned the pair of Jedi’s polite bow with one of his own before gesturing at their attire. ”If the rumor of Joiner presence in our world is confirmed, I advise for the two of...

    Ask (Not) Just the Two of Us

    He had never been to Thakwaa before, but the planet brought back fond memories of when he was still a young Padawan since Rudra had many tales regarding the planet itself and its inhabitants. Haldir disembarked from the Kogitsunemaru, for once unmasked and unadorned with even the most minute of...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    The smile on his face widened when she accepted his invitation. A low, amused chuckle slipped past the Arkanian Offshoot's lips, one hand rising to press a finger to his lips and returned her wink with a somewhat teasing one. "Well, if going on a mission was the only way to get you to leave...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    His hand finally caged hers, fingers carefully wrapping around hers. When her free hand settled atop his, Haldir had to fight the urge to reciprocate. Instead he lifted his free hand and placed a palm over his sternum, against the heart that thrummed with happiness, gratitude, and contentment at...

    Open Get The Scientist!

    He didn’t notice that his fellow Jedi didn’t follow him inside, only realizing it after he had caught the chair that was aimed for the scientist who had also seemingly managed to make a smooth escape. Haldir would have chuckled in amusement if it weren’t for three pairs of eyes - and more - now...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    There was a sense of calmness, of peace, in talking to her so freely like this. They had been open with each other in the past, and yet there were things that they kept to themselves and that was alright. Hearing her talk about her Trials, of her struggles with grief at losing the ones she...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    He felt her joy before he could see it sparkle in her eyes. The feeling, the sight, brought back memories of their first official meeting as Master and Padawan, specifically the moment he asked her about music. That moment, that beginning, had long since passed and the new one they were starting...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    Haldir hadn’t realized that he was holding his breath as he waited whether Willa would accept his hand or not. Relief washed over him when her palm slid atop his, the anxiety reflected in his eyes turning into soft understanding. Though he wanted to lace his fingers with hers he held the urge...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    Sweet dreams, Haldir. And dreamed he did, shifting from the wishful words he penned and turned into songs, to sleepless nights spent struggling against his worries and fears. Flashes of smiling brown eyes, snatches of stars cast along a stretch of inky night sky, the frigid air inside the...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    He could sense her through their Bond as clearly as she could sense him, and while it brought Haldir a great sense of calm before, now he felt quite the opposite. Maybe it was the lack of sleep, the accumulated exhaustion from his travels just so he could get to where she was as swiftly as he...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    Ambivalence tore at him as he stood there in front of Willa, his gaze meeting hers. Grateful for the cover of his mask, a semblance of safety that held his anxiety at bay. Despising it, because it hid the emotions he had long since accepted and embraced, and yet his dependence on it remained...

    Ask All The King's Horses

    He kept his distance from the Order, spiraling back to the old days where solitude was his only loyal companion. He had vowed to never take a Padawan again, had strengthened his resolve on the matter, because as much as he wanted to help teach the next generation Haldir couldn't help but feel...
