Something More, for You and I - Part 1

Summary: Reginald "Rex" Fettson is the Land Agent for Shillshire Castle in England, the home of Lady Amelia Ahsoka Tano, his childhood sweetheart. When war breaks out across Europe in 1914, Rex is swiftly sent to the frontlines and in his absence Ahsoka is hurriedly engaged to a member of fine society at her father's behest: a Member of Parliament with great connections and even greater wealth.

When Rex is on leave from the frontlines, the two meet again, by chance, or perhaps by fate. Will they rekindle their long, lost love despite the limitations of their rank and station? Or will they obey the expectations of their positions, and allow life's one true love to pass them by?

Chapter Word Count: ~1,200

Welcome to my Rexsoka AU: inspired by Downton Abbey and a recent trip I took to England. After touring all the castles and the English countryside, I couldn't help the flood of ideas I had for early 1910s Rexsoka <3 Some inspiration has been taken from Downton Abbey (which is one of my favorite shows of all time, if you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it), and from the history of similar estates and wealthy families of that time, but I tried to give it my own spin.

Hope everyone enjoys! If anyone wants to chat about this AU together shoot me a message. Always down to chat about fun things like this <3

Men of war - Humanity is a space oddity

An alternate universe in which aliens had arrive during ww1-ww2ish, Inspired by the incident of the attack of the dead men. Also sincerely sorry for wrong grammer.

I am not native to English. Im using a dictionary lol.

When we had arrive, a group of men in gas masks threw bombs made of a gas-mixture. Mostly harmless to some of our specimens on board our ship, we have landed pretty far, enough for the trees and all sorts of organisms to hide us, but also close enough to see the destruction these Terrans had caused.

We had expected aliens from a far, trying to colonize a terrene classed fleshlings. But..no, we saw other humans, gasping for air as they clenched their very own throats, horrifying site indeed.

As they fell onto the ground like dying flies, the men decided to start stabbing them, as if they weren't already dead. But soon as one was about to be stabbed, the corpse,.. or what seemingly was a corpse clenched the knife that was on the gun.

We had a okay grasp with humanity, although we didn't understand why they needed to tape brittle knives on their guns. Why couldn't they just shoot them? Who knows.

The man's hand bled, before they managed to forcefully take the knife from the poorly duct taped gun. Before tackling the soldier while puking blood, it started to stab it, the other soldiers were stunned although one had stepped up and shot it.

"W████uf war███t █u? F██ts█tzen!" The man shouted harshly, my men couldn't understand such words.. as if our translators broke right here and there. It sounded like a mix of Martikir Urthonian and Schlovia'Adepti language, an abomination that is. Although it may be due to the distance from the man and us.

Soon the soldiers did not hesitantly think of not continuing, as if a dead or supposedly dead man had came and killed one of their soldiers. Soon those whom have not been stabbed started walking, using their guns as canes and soon some of them started to retreat without command.

Four or three soldiers were stabbed, and some were shot. Soon the same man had shouted, "VER███S█ ███ZT!" They had ran through the barbed wire, most had started falling and being trampled by their own soldiers. Brutally being cut by the fact that they were being slammed forcefully by hundreds of feet and onto sharp wires made of metal.

Soon the dead men started shooting their guns, like some sick game of.. what was that? Shooting chalk through fake gunsthat humans think are fun ? Ah right.. airsoft.

Soon enough all of them had left, the field was bloody, and their screams and puking noises filled the air with red. I do not know what had happened to those men, but I know the other side had ran sl fast that they had simply gone through their own traps and defenses.

It was a scene from a nightmare, something no one could've made up alone. We fled from there, going somewhere else instead of that monstrosity of a battle.. I wish we had came to earth after this horrid battle between all of humanity.
