Alesha December Catchall
Dec. 14th, 2025 02:14 pmWHO: Alesha Herezhade, et all
WHEN: December
WHERE: Around the palace and other places
WHAT: A catchall for Alesha, with some planned threads!
NOTES\WARNINGS: Talk of violence, transphobia and transmysogyny, and tWoM spoilers all likely.
1: Around the Palace - And Am I Weird To Dance Alone, Late At Night?
[Alesha is taking her role as Callie's knight seriously, it seems - if her Attempts at equestrian training with the white horse in barding to match her armor she named Tachi is any indication, or her beautifying her patch of the Geranium dorms, or even her catching some time with her personal patch of geraniums, which seem to be getting on well. She's chatty; gregarious, even, and never minds company during these activities.]
2: Primavain Atelier Babysitting (Quest) - Tonight, We Are Young!
[Alesha was a social worker and a parent in Earthly life and these skills never faded. The babysitting quest seemed to her like a great way to make some cash and do some good, and so she happily went over to the atelier, in her armor and sword - they got a kick out of it - and delivered a sanitized account of some of her battles:]
But it turned out that the pirates of Costa Dulce were being lead by some of the castaways from the wreck of the Buenadventura - who had crashed the ship onto the Shores on purpose! They were all cruel people, but the cruelest of all was the witch Sara Dreschner - she dressed like a healer or magical girl, with a strawberry-tipped wand, but make no mistake: she was only pretending to be a healer so she could hurt people. We knew we had to get their prisoners out of the fortress before their ship could come and take them away to be slaves, or worse. So my friend, Deedee, the foxgirl martial artist and a real healer, took a deep breath, put all of that breath into her legs, and jumped all the way up to the top of the palisades...
3: In The Dojo (Elementalism) - This Is A Cold War, Better Know What You're Fighting For - OTA but also want a thread with Ranma and Akane
[She's fond of Akane. More troubled by Ranma - half of that guy's problems were caused by his taking offense to innocent things, making it about his pride, or overthinking something with a simple solutionlike talking to Akane about it!, but he was a mad genius in the dojo and Alesha could tell he meant well by Akane - and Akane seemed deep down to know that.
Should never have been engaged before they became friends, but her name isn't Soun Tendo, so not much she can do so not her place to say.
What she can do is mentor the both of them. Akane had a talent for shaping her Aura, and Ranma had long since achieved through practice and malice aforethought what Akane could do through intuition and desperation. More to the point, Ranma was horrifying in one on one duels, able to read opponents like a book and find their every weakness to exploit.
Which is why Alesha wasn't going to let him do that when they trained together. He and Akane deserved a challenge, and the chance to bond in battle.]
Okay, Ranma. I'm going to be in Akane's corner for these drills - see how you do against a skirmisher and a defender. And I've got healing ready to go, so don't you dare hold back, we both deserve better and so do you. Akane, your job is to stay where I can cover you with my shield. Ranma, your job is to catch her out when she overextends and punish her for it. We clear?
4: In the Kitchens (Infusery) - If You Mess Up The Kitchen, Then You Should Do The Dishes - OTA but also get in here Yayoi.
[Alesha was a decent enough cook, even if she was used to Ace's superlative restaurant quality Hunanese, so the prospect of magical cooking and brewing excited her.
The best kind of healing potion was always some warm soup. And this time, she thinks she's gotten broth for a good tonkatsu ramen down.]
I'm going to need some volunteers to try this with me.
5: Christmas in Geranium - This Is My Palace, Got Champagne In My Chalice - OTA but also with gifts for her CR + Callie
[She promised Aurora candles in the dark. True to her word, candles of bright red infused with peppermint oil now adorn the Geranium dorm Christmas tree. Two birds, one stone; she hoped neither Lord or Goddess would mind.
She's also been baking up a storm. Snickerdoodles, gingersnaps and choco swirl icebox cookies were easy to make in bulk and bake, and a few nice tins and peices of wax paper from a trip into town later, she has gifts for the people in Rosavelle who have touched her soul - even if they aren't personalized. With that, a pot of tea an one of cocoa roasted on an open fire, she's ready to give out gifts and invite some guests.
Though for the sake of folk who - rightly - have issues with Christians who are more faithful than loving, best to call it Yulehearth to her guests.]
Come on in and welcome to my little Yulehearth party.
