proof of life from this week~

♡ always chilling at cafes before clocking in at work lately para makarelax before sumabak sa stress

♡ i usually spell out my name at sb para laging tama yung nakasulat but tinamad ako that time so ako muna si kay

♡ ayun lang nasira ko na salamin ko kasi nalaglag ko siya then i tried to catch it before it fell to the ground but i broke it trying to do so 💀

♡ dahil bulag si ante niyo sobrang dinikit ko na yung monitor sa mukha ko while working mukha na daw kakagatin ko yung screen sa sobrang lapit eheh

♡ sinalba ako ng shweet kong officemate na girlie dahil may glasses siyang di niya sinusuot dahil nahihilo daw siya. 200 lang grado pero pwede na at least nalalayo ko na ng mga 2 inches yung monitor sa mukha ko kasi mejj kita ko na hehe ang sakit sa ulo but at least i'm not so blind anymore god bless her

♡ ngayon palang ako papagawa ng bagong glasses hihi

"here." said jafar quietly, as he stood close. placing a little branch into hook's hand. he eyes the former pirate for a moment, then spoke softly. "this is the root branch of a plant found in the desert." he said. "nasira and i would chew it after we fell and hurt ourselves. she bit her lip and was bleeding and we saw our nurses chewing it or giving it to us when we were even younger. you can chew it and the pain in your stump will disappear for a while. no need to drink alcohol."

he hovered close. then kissed hook's forehead. "trust me."

A stick?

At first Hook held it in hand like it was a joke, brow raised at his husband for a moment, then realising it was not a joke. At least the more Jafar explained the more it made sense, he inspected the branch for a moment. He knew of some medicinal plants before but.

"..... Thank you..." He whispered back, feeling warmth spread into his heart at the kiss. No need to drink.

࣪𓏲ּ ֶָ 𝑤𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑜𝑠𝒕𝒗 ⁝ aiysha hart, 26, cis woman, she + her. announcing the arrival of NASIRA of house FELL, the LADY of FELWOOD. whispers among the court name them to be both COMPASSIONATE and CALCULATIVE in disposition, and those closest to them speak to their interests in music, the arts & swordsmanship. if we bards could compose a song for them, it might tell stories of the sweet little lamb with your soft heart sent off as a sacrifice to further a dream — how a songbird sang as saltwater tears saw a secret garden grow —  the remnants of old valyria that run through ruined veins —  a sword of vengeance a sweet woman picked up on her own to restore balance to the world. the seven whisper to their most devout queen as she sleeps, making her question where their loyalties truly lie. are they right to whisper? for their loyalties truly lie with THE TARGARYENS / HOUSE FELL.

# basic information.

official  name:  nasira valaena fell.  nicknames:  sira ( used by close friends, immediate family and persons given permission to do so ).  noble  title:  lady of felwood.  date  of  birth:  september 22nd.  age:  twenty six.  birthplace:  felwood, the stormlands.  home:  felwood, the stormlands.  nationality:  westerosi.  gender:  cis woman.  pronouns:  she & her.  orientation:  bisexual.  monikers:  silvermoon.  languages:  common tongue, low & high valyrian ( fluent ) bits of dothraki, bravossi & old tongue ( knows enough to understand and is continuing to learn ) .  accent:  light stormlands accent.

# physical information.

faceclaim:  aiysha hart.

ethnicity:  valyrian & andal ( more valyrian than andal ). 

hair:  dark brown / black with a singular and naturally occurring white stripe ( depending on the time of year to the specific shade ). nasira's hair is a crown of beauty - a signature feature. generally she will wear her hair long down to the small of her back. It was longer once and did reach to the middle of her thighs but did recently trimmed to the aforementioned length. It has never not been long since cutting her hair short would be the most drastic move near enough to hurt her soul as one can get. Fells are not known for much but they all have great hair. currently, it is pulled back when training or doing any sort of work with paints/medicines / or where it can get caught. It is generally dressed in braids or a style to keep it out of her face. She has a decent selection of hair ornaments that are multi-functional items for more than just hair but that you would not suspect are more than simple, pretty things. On special occasions and public appearances, she will have flowers and decorative silver strands woven into it as part of it's styling.. 

eyes:  brown, flecks of amber in the correct sunlight. 

height: 5ft 8in.  

build:  Athletic but curvaceous. Nasira’ is a mesomorph. Gorgeous babe built to last but she has an air of tenderness. A gentility that can’t be shaken. Knife woman but soft. 

scent:  Sandalwood, misty mornings, touches of cedar, young pine, moonflower, agave, twists of amyris with a slight citrus tone. Sweet, spicy, earthy and vaguely woody. 

dominant  hand:  ambidextrous but favors her right hand for some tasks  

allergies:  none. 

scars: No significant scarring but does have cuts and scrapes, which par for the course for any active and hands-on human being as she has made herself and remade herself. They do fade and leave her never lasting. 

distinguishing  features:  expressive eyes that can at one moment be near doe-like and others if so motivate sharp and siren-like. her jawline is quite spectacular. sira's smile once upon a time was quite luminous too and frankly as mentioned before her hair is amazing. can i say everything ?.

 clothing  style:  In general terms Nasira dresses as impressively as House Fell can afford but it is dependent on the activities planned or what functions are needed to be performed. It would be simpler to say she dresses nicely but not extravagantly often. Also, nothing is ever just one singular thing. Like the language of flowers, the subtle arts she’s trained herself in the dress style communicates something that the more observant person will notice. Color, cut, style - even the fabric is a message. To be clear, House Fell may not have great power and can be overlooked. Because of this, when you need to notice them, you will notice them. They are good at blending in, but when the small house has a statement, it will be made. Nasira does not care for gaudy pieces, preferring a more minimalistic type of jewelry, simple and elegant. She likes silver as opposed to gold but will wear it if needed. Flowers in her hair on special occasions will always send a message. Sira also has silver rings. Two, in particular, belong to someone she lost, and another to an honor house fell with a moss agate moon. Post margaery fall out - there is always a knife somewhere on her - usually in her bodice and if not in her bodice in her boots or concealed in her hair.

piercings:  She has eight total. four piercings per ear, three on her lobe and a helix. Think roronoa zoro-esque but not always are they all in but they are there and present. If they close, she has no problem opening them again, as her pain tolerance is high

# personality.

label:   the orphic / the broken bird.   mbti:   estj.   enneagram:   the investigator.   element:   air / earth.   star   sign:   virgo-libra cusp ( technically just a virgo ).   temperament:   melancholic.   character   inspirations:  elain ( acotar ), fang runin ( poppy wars ), eowyn ( lotr ), rhaenyra ( hotd ), elora ( willow ) vex'ahlia ( cr ).   deadly   sin:   wrath.   heavenly   virtue:   kindness.   godly   parent:   artemis.

# drives.

hobbies:  composing & playing a variety of music, singing, sword fighting, weaving, dance, embroidery, painting, reading, healing arts ( poisons too ), many many more things.  religion:  faith of the seven.  alliance:  house targaryen & house fell.  personal goals:  avenging herself and taking action against those who would ruin both her reputation and her family's standing ( though the fells are very solidly a part of courtly life ), restoring her friendships and status.  would they choose family or power?  to this she says both because her logic would stand to point out how if she gains power so would her family and vice versa. truthfully though while she'd say this she would chose those she considers family.

  narrative...

Each of us has a destiny - much as we deny it or fight control a fate few can change. It is pre-woven into the fabric of time carefully stitched together by the hands of gods to serve as a lesson in our own time. While its true purpose has yet to reveal itself, your destiny would see you as the final Fell of a generation. You are the last of them, the last of a line born to a third marriage, barely crying as you let air fill your lungs for the first time. What a tiny, fragile little you were born without knowledge of your actual significance, the legacy carried, or the world thrust upon you. They call you Nasira, the helper, the victorious one - strong in your little limbs and the beating of your heart. You are loved, and in the same vein, you were created, as many of your ancestors before, to serve a purpose - to be a pawn in the great game. Would you let this happen, though? If a woman could change the course of history, would you not run into the darkness to whisk away a child to train her for what she needed to be prepared for? There is no changing a past already cemented in time, knowing a child ought to have its childhood. Even if it could be changed, you'd never be ready for the day, and you would see all of your training fail to protect you.

Your happiest days, you have yet to realize, were when you were aware of nothing, the little laughing love of Felwood. Already, you had proven your resilience; not but a year old and your mother would pass, and never knowing the woman from Norvos who belonged to the blood of old Valyria, you would not miss her but would prove to be a light. You were a kind babe, playing with the children of servants and smallfolk. Little Sira would share toys and give away what you deemed precious to those who needed them. How you would follow your siblings about like a little shadow, picking up their habits even then and sneaking to a father's study drawing on the backs of messages that came in secret from across the sea from the desk of an emperor, you would know nothing about until you were much older. You would sing to your septas as they braided your hair, highlighting the single streak of silver white that discolored it in its darkness. Despite your struggles with sleep that was ever present from a mind that could never find peace easily, seeing you up at odd hours, you were a joy. You would read and dance, and you were kind. How a young person lived every moment, unaware of how far they would slip from you one day. Nasira Fell, you would be and already were worth your weight in gold - with a little more polish, you might have sparkled greater than the prized mineral. You were a darling. If there had ever been one before you, it was doubtful there would be someone so heartfelt and compassionate after.

Little lamb, you were too curious for your good, hungry to learn and be useful playing at the feet of giants since you were but a babe soaking in the knowledge of what made the world turn. How observant you were as childhood gave way to girlhood, recalling details even the most trained eye failed to see impressing a father much - too much. You seal your fate the moment you excel, the moment you are more than a girl fluttering about your world and court when your father brought you to present to his peers. How could you know? How could you, of all sweet things in this world, know you were being fattened up, prepared for the slaughter like a sacred offering into the mouth of the dragon meant to be the price a father paid for his ambitious intentions? How could you know that the days you took for granted in your excellent education would be stolen from you as swiftly as they came? You could not for once upon a time long ago; your tender heart believed in the goodness of human beings, not knowing many were but monsters hiding in plain sight, waiting for something to sink its teeth into.

Beautiful little willing lamb, you jump at the opportunity to be a companion and lady. You are thrilled to be told that your father wishes you to befriend Margaery Targaryen. How you love her with a fierceness, you are loyal to a fault to a dragon. Innocence is weaponized and honey a trap, but when your friends and the friends of your friends are this way - you too are good at pretending. After all, you are Nasira Fell, named helper, victorious in your strength, and despite your tender heart, you are as part of those girls as any of them, and your care for each is genuine. So genuine, you blind yourself to the teeth closing around your throat slowly over the time you spend yourself on friends. Your reality without even knowing it with all your supposed knowledge and wisdom - you were foolish to trust any of them. No, not a fool. A creature in love blinded by that love to some degree.

Was it the love you had for your friends - the ones you would've willingly died for? Was it instead the secret love you harbored for someone else that took good sense and tore your focus from where it should've been? You, after all, had been friends with this person quietly, wrote to them in secret, watered your garden with tears, and wove by candlelight textiles to clothe and keep them with secret stitches and hidden meanings. Did you not meet them too when your person was close to where they were in the hours you could not sleep to be in a place you felt safe and at peace? Your mind is so preoccupied that you seem to forget you were here for more reasons than to be a friend to the lady Targaryen.

You do not remember the rumors - how specific they were or what was said. Nasira, you do remember, though, there were many vicious rumors. Who had you offended, who had been so envious of you to be so casually cruel as to wish to set your world aflame? They spread like wildfire, unable to be contained, and they tore you from your friends, seeing you ruined. Rumors had nearly destroyed you. The fallout was not quiet; you were not unscathed, and a person you loved like your own family, a sister almost to you, had to turn her back as you turned to ash. Where could you go now? Where could you lick wounds and be with your broken self until the world forgot who it had burned? The place you had made your home you were not welcome to anymore - Castamere could not hold you for sake of its reputation and your falling out with its young dragoness. Court was not an option either, as a father couldn't help you directly, for it jeopardized his position and those of your siblings. As if you had died, you would return to Felwood and haunt it like a ghost.

You do live like a ghost for some time - grieving over all you have personally lost, eating away at your soul. Eyes once so full of light dulled and seeing no one. Did you even sing in those days, or did the music die in between your wails during howling storms? It was this way, you spectral thing, living like the former ruins of old Valyria, still smoking with your own supposed doom. What happened next when the Nasira you'd become crossed paths with Silverflame, the ancestral sword that had hung above your mantle for decades, still as sharp as the day it was made? How often have you walked past it and never cared how it was handled or who held it? Were you staring too long, and it began to speak to you? What did an older sibling find standing by the hearth but the formerly bereaved woman mourning her life with the flicker of flame in her eyes, holding the weapon barely able to lift it from its place? You whispered two words, breathing new life for the first time in a long while, nearly frightening this elder sibling of yours --- teach me.

What were you going to do with a sword? You were no warrior before, but your arms cried for it. You needed to feel the blade there to replace the sensation of defenselessness needing to right the world. Though unlikely you would ever have to use it, a lady learned how to wield it - silver flame giving you a reason to continue. It spoke to you of vengeance, retribution for the name a court had sullied and had by this time forgotten the reasons it had been in the first place. You would find your life in planning the undoing of those who had hurt you once, knowing you would not allow them the mercy you would have once extended to them were you the girl they offered up. They would face a woman who had been burned and still survived. They would see a minor goddess who had sharpened herself in her isolation to be a quietly fearsome thing - one who knew how to work her way out of the ruins made for her to restore balance to the world—days had become filled again with studying medicines, poisons, sword skills, strategy at a greater level and planning. Most of all, Nasira, you have made plans so intricate and so well laid out that not even a father who had since informed you about his secret correspondence with a foreign power would understand. You have incorporated that into your plans - your family's subtle relationship as informants in court with the emperor of essos. So you return to court, enough time has passed, the world has forgotten who you'd been, and you seek out an old friend, hoping to reconnect with them to use them in your quest. You still love that same friend as much as you ever did, but how much more are you like Margaery now - Nasira?

You are still so unaware of who your actual betrayer was. Oh, the path you are on now, the eventuality you are headed towards, would see you again sacrifice part of yourself - will you be so willing to betray a friend as they once were for the power to return the hurt? Little lamb with your storied blood and your minor household, your sword firmly, or you may still die upon it if you think to slay dragons. Then again- does the world expect your teeth, you sweet, compassionate being? We are sure to find out what destiny lies before you, Nasira of House Fell.

# wanted  connections.

connections across the narrow sea:  new & close friends, correspondence, allies in secret, lazlo vc: the most devious bastards in NEEEEEW YORK CITAAAY.

nasira has been let in on her father's correspondence over the many years with the emperor seeming to play both sides as staunch supporter of the Targaryen dynasty and informant to the emperor of essos. this is not a known fact to anyone other than the fells and those the emperor would trust. it has been a personal point of nasira to make connections across the narrow see in the former valyrian freeholds, in the new empire and among their nobility. sira is a prolific writer and would've written numerous letters to establish friendships and encourage positive relationships. this action would apply to before and after what would befall her in court ( and how aware they are of that situation is whatever ). it is also entirely possible in the time narisa was away from the Targaryen court and isolating herself from most of westeros that she may have traveled to essos. this is a broad connection in reality because if she's corresponded, visited even these persons could've taught her something etc. they would be a largely positive connection with potential to be included in her plot to avenge herself. it would be interesting if a few of them were already involved and potentially helping her find out the culprit to her former demise. they wouldn't know again how involved her house is with the emperor unless told if at all. totally just a jumping off point for further and more specific plotting! help support our villain origin story or just boop her nose

deathly dances before daybreak:  sparring partners, early morning cyvasse players - etc.

as mentioned briefly before - nasira is a light sleeper often prone to being awake far earlier than others. add to this that nasira to make the most of this time when the world is quiet takes to improving herself and her skills. your muse(s) could've encountered her at some point in one of these efforts either working in the training courtyards, perched in a window sill of a library reading a book and still within reach of the cyvasse board she plays against herself or exploring the world that often can over look her because they can. In any case they've caught her and for whatever reason they are drawn into the situation, unable to help but join. They've made this a routine as strange new companions ( former, current or brand new friends or!! friendly rivals) and are learning from each other! this is open to so many iterations and possibilities - again detailed but broad to give us a jumping off point.

the secret garden -- does it still bloom? :  the failed secret romance/lost love

for more details please check out the wanted connection on the main for this or in the discord but ugh give me all - ALL - of this potential angst. this muse had to distance themselves for one reason or another. the love was deep, very real and a most unexpected thing for two people. your muse in a sense had to watch her burn, could not save her from the spread of rumors - you couldn't prevent it. let me cry over this while listening to a slowed version of 'a quiet between the storms' and just all the emotions hurt me on this one. 😭

all the things :  seriously give me all the connections

i am one who loves to brainstorm, to build something special for each character i write with to see us forward. let us do something awesome. bonus points if you bring me the half-siblings!

[descendants-extended]

Hi! :)

Who do you think are the best parents on the Isle-the parents who both A. care about their children, and B. actively care for them?

This is a super late answer! I want to post more but have been overthinking it so this has been sitting in my notes for quite some time!

We don’t know for certain about some villains depending on a few personality traits. I’ll go through my villain list (it’s quite lengthy) and analyse it. But that’s for later.

Below is from the top of my head. Without further ado:

Anastasia Tremaine- she definitely cares about her kids and her niblings (aka nephews and nieces). Yes, her redemption in Cinderella II is canon in mine. Like my account name says. I love the extended media (and try and have em fit. With tweaks and changes sometimes!)

Facilier seems to be a good dad from what we saw in the 3rd descendants movie! May differ in the school of secret books which I haven’t read yet.

Mozenrath. His being on this would surprise people (namely Al, Jaz and the gang. Some of the other isle people as well) He had an awful, evil tyrant (who even Jafar steered clear of, according to Iago) adopted father named Destane so he knows what it’s like to be mistreated.  Yes, Mo’s a villain kid too like Ana! He’d try to avoid it with his kid(s) and probably subconsciously feels bad for the  isle kids. He’d be a ‘my child can do no wrong’  and a ride-or-die parent.  He was quite negligent about his own health but has the knowledge to do better for his own kid(s).

He’s from the Aladdin tv show and is sassy, witty and a booksmart sorcerer villain who lacks common sense in his elaborate plans. Oh and he has a flying eel familiar, Xerxes (who is the best, loyal and deserves everything) The show itself is so cool, underrated and thorough! (Fun fact: the Aladdin franchise has a lot of lore!) In mine, he accidentally adopts a baby off the isle’s streets. There’s more to his tale of course, but more later. And I do plan on writing a book in the descendants verse bout it.

Sadira. (she’s also from the Aladdin tv show!) She grew up on the street of Agrabah and fell for the first kindness anyone showed her. Poor gal knows what it’s like to be wronged (the guards are so mean to the ‘street rats’ aka poor people) and she wanted love. She’d be a great mum and very hands-on! She knows what it takes to survive and can read so she may have educated herself on the nuances on taking care of others!

The Wicked Prince (Evil Queen’s brother, from the Snow White comics), Nasira (Jafar’s twin sister from an Aladdin game), and Lady Waltham (Clayton’s sister. From the Tarzan tv show) had a family-oriented streak in wanting to avenge their fallen sibling.

But it depends on what it stems from as a dead sibling is quite drastic. Would it translate into them being good parents? Who’s to say? I think Lady Waltham might be. Morgana (Ursula’s sister who appeared in ‘The little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea’)

Cecil De Vil (from 101 Dalmatians: The Series) is the most responsible De Vil adult  (though that’s not saying much sometimes). He becomes a responsible caretaker for the De Vil clan kids because Cruella and PH wouldn’t and Ivy’s parents and Hunter’s parents aren’t in the picture.

The redeemed villains (they’re wrongfully on the isle in mine. poor them but angsttttt) are generally great parents (or at least they try. Le Fou may be average but it depends! I don’t think he’s over being Gaston’s lackey and so may be less active with his kid)

That’s it so far

How Did THAT Happen?

How did these Villains get together? How did these Isle kids get together? All that and more below the cut.

Warnings for mentions of sexual assault, mentions of sexual abuse, mentions of child abuse, mentions of death, mentions of abusive relationships, swearing

Maleficent and Chernabog (Desdemona)- they wanted to create an extremely powerful spawn who would be able to free them.

Maleficent and Hades (Mal, Ire, and Malice)- after Desdemona tried to kill Maleficent, she focused on another powerful being, a god. She blackmailed Hades by kidnapping Cora and forced him to get her pregnant.

Evil Queen and Chernabog (Evie)- his human form is very hot and she wanted a gorgeous child. He was still looking for a powerful child, saw a very powerful sorceress, and decided "Yeah, why not."

Jafar and Sadira (Jay)- he manipulated her into a relationship because he wanted an heir to exploit.

Cruella de Vl and Mr Dark (Carlos)- he took advantage of her during a mental health episode.

Frollo and Want (Claudine)- He paid for a night with her back when she was still doing that and got her pregnant. He then reused to allow her to get an abortion and, after Claudine was born and he learned she was planning to take Claudine with her, blackmailed her by saying that if she so much as spoke to Claudine, her babies (Amara and Calisto) would suffer for it.

Facilier and Ursula (Uma, Freddie, Celia, Riptide, Oceana)- they were part of Maleficent's original inner circle, because they were both super powerful and fearsome. That's how they met. They both blew UP at Maleficent when they found out she killed Harriet's twin and both left the circle. They became friends, then lovers.

Clayton and Claudette (Clay)- he paid for a night with her.

Nasira and Cassim (Jade)- she blew the fuck up at Jafar on the transport because what the hell, Jafar, you tried to rape a fifteen-year-old girl? I never would have helped you if I'd known that! He comforted her after and, since she was fresh out of allies and he knew she would probably need some, invited her to stay with the Forty Thieves. They fell in love.

Cecil B de Vil and Madam Medusa (Diego and Veronica)- he's her sugar daddy.

Drizella and Hans (Dizzy)- drunken hook-up.

Yzma and Frollo (Yzla and Zevon)- he drew her into a shitty relationship to "save the heathen" and, in the process, got her pregnant twice. She was in such a bad place that she probably would have stayed if she hadn't caught him sexually abusing baby Yzla.

Captain Hook and Marina del Ray (Harriet, Harry, CJ, Shirley, Sojourner, Ida)- they met on the transport and she was enchanted. He credits the guyliner and she smacks his shoulder every time he says that.

Gaston and Laurette (Gaston II, Gaston III, Belle, Giles, Gordon, Gil, Narcissa)- pretty self-explanatory.

Smee and Morganna (Sammy, Squeaky, Squirmy)- they met on the transport. She fell for him because he was so nice and genuine and funny. Think of Malfina and Connecticut Clark.

Ratcliffe and Helga Sinclaire (Rick)- he SA'ed her.

Jasper and Drizella (Jace)- drunken hook-up.

Horace and Anastasia (Harry)- she dated around to try to get over Anthony Sr. It didn't work.

Ringmaster and the Enchantress (Hermie)- if magic is energy, he's rubber. They met on the transport. Her multiple lobotomies left her magic extremely unstable and she lost control. He managed to soothe her. When they got to the Isle, they stayed together because he was the only one who wasn't afraid of her and didn't try to manipulate her, and thus was the only one who could soothe her. In return, she helped him get over his fear of animals. They fell in love and continue to have a mutually-beneficial relationship. They're best friends and he loves his wife.

Astronomer and Morgans le Fay (Reza)- they wanted a child with powerful magic and were both pissed when Reza had no signs of magic.

-

Horned King and Madam Mim (Riah)- they wanted a magically-powerful child. They got one, but he was born extremely premature and was cursed a few minutes after, so they got rid of him.

Oizys and Eurynomos (Dawn)- they met in the Underworld. He was the only one who could make her laugh.

Loki and Circe (Hatitosa)- they bonded over their love of magic and chaos. It was a one-night stand but they're still friends and everyone is worse for it, because it makes Hati more dangerous.

Themis and Dike (Justice)- they met because they were both advocates for not locking up Hades and several other important gods, you idiot, and bonded over being beyond furious that King Beast was this stupid. Friends to lovers.

Elea and Medusa (Mercy)- she was the only one who didn't fear or hate Medusa and they got to know each other.

Rasputin and Paulette (Mischa, Polina, Kira, and Nikita)- she was heartbroken and he used it to draw her into a shitty relationship.

Bill Sykes and Want (Arika)- he paid for a night with her and, upon finding out the baby would have Down Syndrome, demanded she abort. Amara and Calisto were already eager to have a new sibling, so she said no. She can no longer go into town but she got to keep Arika.

Hans and Nerissa (Hans II and Anna)- he manipulated her into a shitty relationship because he is drawn to power.

Monsieur D'Arque and Queen La (Tara and Tarzan)- she was a patient and his asylum and he took advantage of her.

Panic and Want (Amara and Calisto)- he found her on the streets because she didn't have a home. With Hades's permission, she was allowed to move into the caverns until she could get onto her feet. They spent a lot of time together and she was entranced, as many who've lived all of their lives in shitty situations are, because he didn't didn't want anything from her. They danced around each other for a while, until Hades got sick of it and told them to just fucking kiss already. They were the OTP of the House of Hades and now they're married and very happy.

-

Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos- Mal and Jay met when he tried to pickpocket her. Carlos got bought into the gang because Jay thought he was cute. Evie got bought in because Mal thought she was cute. Mal was dating Evie and Jay was dating Carlos, then Evie started dating Jay and Carlos and Mal started dating Carlos, and Mal and Jay decided to just see if they would be happy in a relationship. They were.

Evie, Agony, and Malcolm- Agony and Malcolm saved Evie from being SA'ed. She let them use her garden, Agony for dyes and Malcolm for remedy plants, and they eventually fell for each other.

Mischa Rasputin and Ivy de Vil (Pasha Rasputin)- she was there when he plead Sanctum after his father slit his throat. They spent a lot of time together afterwards. They understood each other.

Harriet Jones, Ginny Gothel, Diego de Vil, and Anthony Tremaine (Aeden, Faolan, and Sunshine)- Diego and Harriet were allies, Anthony joined Harriet's crew after Mad Maddy overthrew him, and Ginny spent a lot of time around Harriet. They became pretty close friends and later fell in love.

Narcissa and Jonas Never (Stormi)- she kicked his ass while sparring and fell in love with the fact that it was the moment he fell for her.

Harry, Uma, and Gil- they were childhood friends.

Claudine Frollo and Shan Sarangerel- Claudine spent a lot of time in the hospital so they spent a lot of time around each other.

Big Murph and Mordred Mim- Mordred tried to kill Murph because he thought Murph was trying to kurt his sister. Looking back on that fight, they both had a lot of fun. So they sparred often, became friends, and eventually decided that they'd crossed the line into a relationship.

[forgotten-necromancer]

Get ahold of yourself woman, that dragon is clearly a distraction!

"!" Nasira turned so abruptly she nearly fell backward. Heat spread throughout her chest and into the roots of her hair. The necromancer at least had the grace to look embarrassed, unable to reciprocate the stranger's heavy, knowing gaze.

"Wh-what do you mean?! You're mistaken!"

[silverloreley]

The other parents...

So, I fell in the Descendants rabbit hole again and...

I’m still disappointed of the big plot twist of Hades being Mal’s father, because it contradicts the first book (but I have to guess Melissa de la Cruz wasn’t told so it’s not her fault) and because it makes Mal unnecessarily powerful. On the other side, I love Cheyenne Jackson’s Hades, it’s a great Hades, if you ask me.

But this led me to another point, which is the very unanswered question of who the other VKs parents are. Not all of them, but, at least the main ones?

Fanwriters tend do gloss over, pick at random, or invent OCs, save for Evie for whom I have seen the weirdest takes (the Horned King and Scar are possibly top wild ones, pun intended).

Me? I probably spent too long thinking about it in the past years and now that I have a tiny bit of free time I want to share all my ideas.

One thing before anything: I think the Villains can’t die (or die again, in most cases) as long as the Barrier stands and I think the reason they were revived to be put on the Isle (aside from plot reasons) is because the Auradon rulers were afraid necromancy could be used and decided to preventively trap the dead Villains before anyone (like Nasira, Jafar’s sister from the videogame) could try, and them dying again on the Isle would defeat the purpose, so the original Villains can’t die. Everyone born after can, though. It was supposed to teach the Villains to care for their own, maybe.

Okay, to my ideas:

Mal: we have canon, yes, but we didn’t until D3 came out, so I either thought, there was an unnamed OC (as the book implied) or Maleficent just deposed an egg. After the teaser for D3 I was fully convinced her dad could be Mor’du. No, really, Hades was not in my thoughts at all. But, if I had dug a bit, I would have found/remembered the House of Mouse episode in which Hades courted Maleficent and then I could have considered it. Still, I both like and dislike canon.

TL,DR: we have canon dad Hades and that’s good enough, but I used to like the idea it could have been Mor’du.

Jay: there are fics that imply or outright state he may actually be Jasmine’s son and either Jafar raped her or he kidnapped hers and Aladdin’s firstborn. In both cases he’d be older than the Isle and, while the book implies he could be a little older than Mal, he’s certainly not 20 yet, so that idea is a no, for me. From what we know about the Isle’s captives, there were not only Villains but indesiderables too, aka everyone the new Auradon would consider “tainted”, and I’m almost sure common thieves and prostitutes would be in there. So Jay’s mother is possibly some common minor criminal. I also considered another idea: the sultanate of Agrabah seems to be rather small and, in the new live action movie, the maps point at the chance of multiple principalities in the area, about the size of city-states, each with their own ruling families, perhaps. So, what if Jay’s mother was a princess? Just, like, the daughter of some evil ruler, or a minor evil one herself, why not? In the book (yes, again), Jafar says that Jay should be “a prince, parading on elephants“ and I don’t think he means “if only my plan went right“ but he’s talking about legit birthrights (for this last part, we could also consider the OUAT:iW route that says Jafar was the illegitimate brother of the sultan... but I don’t like where it would lead, unless we say it was another sultan and not Jasmine’s father. But I like the 2019 live action’s version better).

TL,DR: Jay’s mother is either a common “criminal” (thief/conwoman/prostitute/...) or she’s from another principality/sultanate, aka a disgraced princess.

Carlos: Cruella DeVil canonically married multiple times, assuming any of her husbands could be Carlos’ father wouldn’t be a stretch, we’d only have to figure out which one was the last. And a name. (Uh, the Cruella live action doesn’t count in this case because it was a wholly different story, I consider it a remake-retcon rather than a prequel). From a very old videogame we have a Dr Farzboom who was an inventor smitten with Cruella and with a nice personality, all traits that would make him a likely father to Carlos.

I also like the idea he could be the son of another Disney character, for the longest time I considered Hans because he’s the only villain with freckles (and that could make Carlos and Evie half-siblings, I’ll get to that later), but why wouldn’t he, who was neglected by his own family, try to stay in his son’s life? Meh.

And then, with Encanto out... I read a fic with Bruno being sent to the Isle and... well...

I’ve always thought: if Cruella is British, why would she chose a Spanish name for her son? She could have called him Charles, it’d make more sense, unless the father is a Spanish-speaker and he chose the name? And, okay, Carlos’ cousin’s name (again, from the book) is Diego, another Spanish name and Encanto came out last year, this is a stretch, I know, but Bruno as Carlos’ father? Being drawn by the fact the DeVils are a large family like his but not realizing at first how crazy they are? Bruno living in the walls of Hell Hall and coming out at night to grab food and help his son with the chores in secret but Carlos not knowing and being afraid of the noises he sometimes hears in the house? The fact they’re both soft-spoken and a bit of scaredy cats? Very smart and very underestimated and very much abuse victims, although in different ways? Them going to Encanto together after the Barrier is taken down and Carlos meeting his cousins and getting his gift and helping with Casita’s impending destruction (aka Carlos in the movie)? I love this theory and I’m considering adopting it as my headcanon.

TL,DR: Carlos’ father could be one of Cruella’s canonic husbands/partners like Dr Farzboom, or Prince Hans, or Bruno Madrigal.

Evie: the Evil Queen must have had standards, we should all agree on that. So Evie’s father couldn’t have been just anyone. I already mentioned the theories about him being the Horned King from Black Cauldron (ewww) or a humanized Scar (less ewww but still...), there are some that say it could be the Huntsman (but he was the one who helped Snow White escape, would he be on the Isle in the first place?) so no to those for me. I mean, I get “I’m a queen and I’d only marry a king“ but the Horned King would be too hideous for the Evil Queen to consider, I think she’d look for someone noble and handsome enough to have a pretty progenies at the very least.

I mentioned Hans when talking about Carlos and I think he’d be a good fit: prince, handsome, young, smart, he’d be a great candidate in EQ’s eyes... if only he had anything to rule over he’d be perfect. That would mean Evie has princess birthright from both sides, as small as the chance for her to becoming queen could be (she’d still need to marry someone closer in line to a throne). It’s a win on all sides. Plus there was the bit of Evie and Carlos being potential half-siblings and Carlos is implied to have skipped grades/being younger than the other Rotten Four so maybe the EQ kicked him out after finding out he was 14th/15th in line for the throne (I assume his eldest brother would have children by that time) and maybe he went to look for someplace else to stay. By the same brand of cutesy, instead of Cruella, he could have been matched up by Lady Tremaine with Drizella and being Dizzy’s father, making Evie and Dizzy half-sisters, that would be nice too.

Or, and that circles back to the start, EQ found herself an actual King of a decayed but still reclaimable kingdom, aka Mor’du but I can’t fathom why wouldn’t a man with a strong temper not stay and try to reign in his own wife, unless he was too exasperated (like Hades with Maleficent) and left.

TL,DR: the Evil Queen would have chosen someone noble and handsome and the best candidate would have been Prince Hans, or Mor’du, as long as we keep canon for all the rest. I still think Hans would be the best pick.

Uma: it’s sort of fanon-estabilished her father is Dr Facilier, I suppose because the actresses who play Uma and Freddie are sisters and I like the idea. Plus, I like to think the YouTube series “The Villains’ Lair“ is a sort of prequel to Descendants (from before the Isle was made) and Facilier and Ursula get along quite well in that. For the same reasons, Freddie’s mother would be Ursula, I’m not sure about Celia, who is younger, but she could be too.

Harry Hook (and the Hook siblings in general): does anyone know “The Pirate Fairy“ movie? The one where young James Hook had as his voice actor Tom Hiddleston? Well, I saw it, and shipped young Hook with Zarina. I think, by Auradon standards, she’d be considered a Villain or Villain-adjacent too and shipped on the Isle, likely in human form. Someone had my same idea and put it in words before me. So the Hook siblings are half-fairy.

Gil: for some reason, I don’t think he’s the son of one of the bimbettes (his brothers must be, though). I think his mother could be a pirate or something, I don’t have a clear idea.

I think I covered all the main ones. Feel free to interact with the post.

[dragoneyes618]

Who all do you think are in Harriet's crew?

A lot of this is my own headcanons, with the occasional original character:

Harriet Hook, of course, as captain.

Samuel "Sammy" Smee, who is both first mate and medic. He's currently trying to find someone else with the aptitude for healing, since it's dangerous for two positions to be held by one crew member-if he dies or is otherwise out of commission then the crew has no first mate AND no healer-but so far he hasn't found anybody.

Big Murph. His last name is Murphy. I have no idea what his first name is. Everyone just calls him Big Murph, because, well, he's big.

Molly Murphy (original character), Big Murph's younger sister by one year. The two of them have five younger siblings (also original characters) whom they've basically raised. All of their names start with M. They're all on Harriet's crew. One of them, Mark, died when he was climbing the rigging and fell. The rest of them are fine, though.

Jade, Jay's cousin. Her mother, Nasira, is chronically ill; she joined the crew in exchange for being paid only in whatever medicine the crew manage to find or buy or "liberate," not in money or food or anything else.

Claudine Frollo, who didn't so much "join the crew" as much as "suddenly find random members of Harriet's crew looking out for her and Harriet herself talking to her and reading between the lines and helping her and offering her a spot on her crew, should she ever take Harriet up on her offer." Because Claudine is in one of the worse home situations on the Isle, and Harriet is going to do something about it, because she's a pirate captain who clawed her way up and fought for everything she has and if she can make life a tiny bit easier for the other children of the Isle, then she will, and because she's the oldest child born on the Isle so the children of the Isle are her responsibility and she can't save everyone on the Isle but she can try.

Clay Clayton, who joined in exchange for protection for his younger brother and sister, twelve-year-old twins Clark and Clara Clayton (original characters).

Squeaky and Squirmy Smee, who are basically the crew's mascots. They idolize their older brother, as well as the three Hook kids.

Hunter de Vil, who doesn't exist in Descendants canon, but does exist in Disney canon, and I like to pretend he exists in Descendants canon anyway; Diego de Vil's older brother.

Anthony Tremaine, who is unofficially allied with Harriet in exchange for her letting him drop off his sisters/cousins, before they were old enough to make their own arrangements, at her ship to stay for a while whenever things at home got too out of hand.

🦋 Wanderland Day 1 🦋

Was too lazy to take outfit pics the whole weekend. It's my 3rd Wanderland na and at this point pagod na kami umawra mauuwi lang din naman sa pagiging sabog, pagod, at haggard HAHAHA tamang pacute na lang. Went for a cute frilly top + jeans lang but I super love my earrings! They're faux butterfly wings and I had another pair (blue) that I wore for the 2nd day to match my blue outfit.

Late na kami pumasok sa venue and Ylona was playing her set already mga 5:30 pm na ata `to kasi naglunch pa muna kami at nag-ayos, mga gustong umiwas sa arawan kaya nagpa-late.

After her set we went on and walked around the festival mostly to buy drinks while listening to Men I Trust ^__^

RAVEENAAAAAAAA ssnsjsjskksk jusko!!!!!!!!!!!! Nahiwalay ako sa friends ko her entire set kasi sobrang dinumog nga kami ng mga tao at hinayaan na lang ako ng friends ko na sumingit paharap to see my dyosa Raveena 🥺

SOOOOO. HAHAHAHA. After Raveena was No Rome's set and can I just say. Sobrang fan niya ako since idk ????? Years ago pa??? Sobrang crush ko si Rome ever since huhuhuhu. Yung last gig niya sa Makati di ko na napuntahan kasi walang kasama at tamad na kong lumabas ng bahay at bumiyahe so first time ko siya makitang live 🥹

Anyway... dahil nga mag-isa na lang ako during set ni Raveena, wala akong ginawa kundi ubusin yung dalawang malaking baso ng beer na hawak ko habang nakikinig. So pagdating ng set ni No Rome wala na lasing na ko hahaha.

To make things worse, ni isang patak ng tubig hindi pa ako nakakainom that day at all! Kasi naman sobrang takot akong maihi at gumamit ng portalet :(((( bawal din kasi re-entry sa venue so no choice kundi yun gagamitin mo unless star wanderer ka, but i mean, in this economy?? So wala ang bilis kong nalasing at ang tagal kong mag sober up HAHA. Buong set ni No Rome nagwawala, nagsisisigaw, at nagtatatalon ako hanggang sa nasira bra ko hhsjsjsjsjsjajhahHahshshdhsjsj I thought it was a good idea to wear strapless ones para bawas sakit sa shoulders at sa likod... di ko naconsider na ang hina ng support if nakasalalay lahat sa nag-iisa niyang hook sa harap. So yun I spent the rest of his set hiding behind my friends' backs trying to remove and hide my bra sa bag looool. Very on brand for someone na sobrang may crush sa kanya ang mahubaran ng bra hahahahshsjskskks OK ayos. Trendy naman to go bra-less diba. Literally fell to my knees when he sang Narcissist as his last song :') As expected, I have no proper photos or videos of his set given my drunken state. Oh well, masaya naman.

Fast forward na lang tayo kay Madam Carly!!!!!!!! Headliner ng Day 1. WHEW WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN. I never expected to be such a fan I mean I love super pop-y songs din naman and I listen to her from time to time lalo na may collab sila ng isang fave artist ko. Pero!!!!!! Ever since na-announce na kasama siya sa lineup months ago, I started listening to her more and I never thought na sobrang magiging fan ako but here I am. Si madam Carly ang laging soundtrip ko pag naglilinis at naglalaba. Grabe yung discography niya sobrang pop perfection pero sobrang malaman ng songs like di siya walang kwentang bubblegum pop it's soooo good at puno ng substance!!! Muntikan ko nang sisihin friend ko na naimpluwensiyahan niya ko kay Carly Rae Jepsen dahil siya yung talagang super fan pero sabi niya sakin I'm a convert on my own daw. Wala na raw siyang kinalaman doon. Nawelcome na tuloy ako sa kulto daw ni Carly hahahaha. Anyway grabe!!!! She's so good live at may pa-costume change pa si ate girl ang lala!! Hay ang hirap ng may bagong sasambahin chz.

Yun lang for Day 1. After the festival deretso hotel kami. May naka-book kaming room but I didn't sleep over na with my friends as I initially planned kasi nagpapainom ako ng gamot sa pets ko for now at marami pa akong di maiwan na responsibilities that time. Di pa keri ng schedule kong umabsent ng 2 whole days kailangan ko rin umuwi-uwi at some point. Nagpalipas lang ako ng oras with friends then booked a ride home para iwas sa rush hour 💃🏻🪩

Changing, Mutating

Day 12 of 12 - Found Family

Previous 》 Masterlist

He didn’t know what to expect when opening the door of the ACP, but being tackled by a twelve year old was still surprising to say the least.

The boy looks up at him, wide brown eyes narrowing in confusion.

“Oh. You’re not Zak.”

“Right here, bud.”

The kid’s face lights up and he does a second attempt at the hug. He lands this time at the right target who exhales with an oof sound, before laughter from the two boys could be heard.

Ash watches the two grin before Arthur bends down to ruffle the hair of both of them. Nasira pushes past them before pausing to mention something to the kid who freezes and turns to stare at him.

“Y-You’re...”

Ash frowns before shaking his head.

“No, that’s her.”

Ash juts his chin to the girl being walked in by Isaac, she takes hesitant steps into the building before freezing at the boy’s stare.

“W-What is it?”

The boy makes frantic gestures with his hands as his mouth moves to find the words to say.

“A-Are you a, you know...”

“A mutant?” Rosie finishes.

“Yeah.”

“Y-Yes I am. Does that worry you?”

The boy’s gestures get more frenzied.

“No! I mean, no. My name’s Max by the way. I’m a m-mutant too.”

Rosie lets out a small gasp before stepping closer to the boy, letting go of Isaac’s hand. Arthur and Zak share a glance between them.

“You’re one too...”

“How long have you been a mutant?”

“What? I was born this way.”

The temperature of the room drops. The team are frozen in time for a moment and Rosie looks around in confusion to meet Ash who shrugs.

“What? What did I say wrong?”

Arthur takes a slow, measured step towards her.

“Rosie, are you absolutely sure about that?”

Rosie frowns, “Of course I am. How can you be made into a mutant? That’s impossi- ”

She stops when she sees Arthur’s darkened expression. She looks to the others for an explanation but the others looked as confused as she was, apart from Zak who seemed completely lost in thought.

Isaac clears his throat beside her.

“So you can be born a mutant? Did MEKHA know that?”

MEKHA?

Nasira folds her arms and sighs, “It would make sense. To see mutants and try to replicate them.”

Max turns to Rosie.

“So you weren’t experimented on?”

“No. Never.”

Max gave out a small sigh of relief. Rosie shuddered to think what that might mean.

A silence fell on the group as they tried to process the information. They stood by the door, looking off in various directions. Apart from one.

“I literally have no idea what’s going on here but I would like to go to sleep.” Ash states finally.

Nasira scoffs, “Wouldn’t we all? But we haven’t sorted out any sleeping arrangements.”

Arthur and Isaac glanced at each other before Arthur spoke.

“We have. Ash, Isaac will take you to your bed. Rosie, you’ll share with Nasira.”

Rosie nods and was about to give an affirmation before Nasira interjects.

“Excuse me. I decide who sleeps in my room, not you two.”

Arthur sighs, “Then what’s your suggestion?”

“That she shares with me. See, my decision.”

Arthur groans before stretching.

“Alright, team. Let’s get to bed. We’ll deal with the rest tomorrow.”

They start to disperse before being stopped by Zak.

“Guys, I have something to say.”

Nasira takes a slow and deliberate turn back to Zak.

“Is it “I won’t run off and get captured again.”, because you should set more realistic goals.”

Zak flushes, “Shut up. It’s, um, I think I was born a mutant too.”

Arthur frowns, “Are you sure?”

“Um, yeah. I am. I’m sure I was never experimented on. I have memories of scratching my nursery toys and high chair with long nails and sharp teeth. I’m sure.”

Arthur moves back to where Zak was stood by the door and wraps his arms around him.

“Okay. Are you okay with that?”

“Um, yeah. If Rosie is like that, then I don’t mind being what she is.”

Rosie gives a soft smile before hugging the back of Zak. Max joins in and the humans watch them from the stairwell.

Zak sniffs, “Thanks for finding us. Thanks for saving me, every time.”

Arthur presses a kiss to the top of his head, “I’m here for you. Wherever you are, I’ll be there, I promise.”

Max lets out a small laugh, “We’re stuck together, aren’t we?”

“Yeah.” Zak grins, “We are.”

Rosie gives a final squeeze before releasing and the others follow suit.

The team all mutter their goodbyes to each other then head to their bedrooms.

Once everyone settles, Arthur passes through each bedroom, checking on each of them, until he arrives at his own.

Isaac sits on the other side, propped by pillows. The duvet still at the edge of the bed.

Arthur takes a step closer.

“Are you sure about this?”

Isaac gives a small smile in response.

“Arthur, I am if you are.”

Arthur sighs and sits on the other side, mirroring Isaac’s posture.

“We’re just sharing a bed, right? We’ve done this before.”

“Not permanently though. If you don’t feel ready, then that’s okay.”

Arthur exhales again, “I am. I don’t know why I’m like this.”

“Don’t do that. Just get some rest.”

Arthur shifts to lie down, facing Isaac.

“How was Ash?”

“Seemed to like my bed.” Isaac huffs out a laugh, “How was Rosie?”

“Fine, Nasira let her take the bed. She’s staying up for something or other.”

“Well at least there’s nothing new there.”

Isaac lays down, pulling the covers over him. He meets Arthur’s warm brown eyes and flushes, suddenly aware of the little distance between them.

His partner brings a hesitant hand to his side and Isaac shuffles closer until they’re holding each other.

Arthur lets out a small exhale and Isaac laughs in response.

They nestle into each other and get to sleep.

--

Rosie grunts as she twists and turns. The sinking mattress and heavy, suffocating comforter unfamiliar to her. She gives up her struggle and lays on her back, staring up at the dark ceiling.

Suddenly, the door creaks open and she turns to her side, closing her eyes. She didn’t want to seem ungrateful to people who gave her a comfortable bed to sleep on.

Even if it was a bit too comfortable for her.

“R-Rosie? Is it okay if I come in?”

Her eyes fly open and she turns to the boy at the door.

“Ash?”

He takes a hesitant step inside of the dark room and lets the door close behind him.

“Rosie, I wanted to apologise again.”

She smiles warmly and pats the bed next to her. Ash’s eyes widen and he sits at the edge of the bed.

“Ash, I forgive you. Of course, I do. You saved us.”

Ash looks to the ground between his feet.

“I didn’t, that was Zak and the others. I didn’t do anything.”

Rosie shakes her head and moves to sit beside him.

“You did something. Your injuries are proof of that.”

Ash turns to look at her, eyes wide.

“I-”

The door flies open and Rosie and Ash jolt and whip their head to the door where Zak stood, with a sheepish look.

“Sorry, didn’t want to back out.”

He moves to sit next to Ash whose confusion and judgment was evident from his face.

“Back out of what, exactly?”

Zak shrugs, “Just...this.”

Ash frowns at the response before Rosie giggles.

“You do like bursting in without invitation, don’t you?”

Zak grins back, “Only for you.”

“Could you two not flirt while I’m in the middle, thanks.”

Zak flushes at Ash’s intone, “N-No, I’m not- ”

“Why, Ash, you jealous?” Rosie teases.

“Of who? You or him?”

Rosie shrugs, “Maybe it’s both of us.”

“Wait, what are you two talking about?” Zak flusters.

Ash flops onto the bed, legs still dangling from the side of it. “Something I don’t want to think about tonight.”

Rosie tilts her head in amusement, “Do you want to stay here tonight?”

Ash sits up again, “You sure? With me?”

“Yeah, and Zak. I can’t really sleep in these beds. Not alone, anyway.”

Zak frowns, “Why not? I think they’re more comfortable than most beds.”

“That’s the problem.”

Zak makes an o with his lips in understanding and Ash looks between the two of them in confusion.

“Wait, why would - ”

“Let’s just go to sleep, Ash. Leave morning conversations for the morning.”

Ash frowns in confusion before shrugging. The three then climb into the bed and pull the sheets over them.

They fall asleep almost immediately.

[ slow dance ]  for your muse to ask my muse to slow dance (Imari x Nasira)

[ flower ]  for your muse to offer my muse their favourite  flower/s (Anansi gives Catherine some sakuras)

[ homemade gift ]  for your muse to make my muse a gift ( & bonus if you add what the fit is ) (Akari gifts Mae her best attempt at during some jewelry)

Imari x Nasira

"What do you want?" Nasira glared at him from the corner of her eye before returning her eyes to Kalim who made his way through the crowd, enjoying himself "Just thinking that dress I got you suits you." he chuckled as he looked at Nasira, her usual uniform was replaced with a red dress, a silk glove covering her skeletal arm as opposed to her typical glove. "I didn't have a choice." She replied curtly "Kalim insisted I attend this dance, and when he saw this dress he was adamant that I wear it." She fiddled with her hair "Well, this is a school dance." Imari chimed in. Nasira frowned "Is there something you want? You're distracting me." She sighed, eyes darting to quickly look at him before trying to find Kalim in the crowd. She stepped back in shock as Imari appeared in front of her "I want a dance." He smiled.

"Sorry to disappoint but I don't know how to dance. I'm simply a clothes maker." She was about to turn away "Come now, I'll show you" he grinned as he took her hand. Nasira sighed loudly "If I dance with you, will you finally let me get back to work?" "Nasi, no one here will hurt Kalim. You can have fun" he put his hand on her cheek. Nasira blushed a bit "Fine. I'll humor you." Imari perked up, pulling her towards him as he began to lead. Nasira fumbled a bit, falling into him "Don't laugh." She hissed. A chuckle was in his voice as he spoke "I wasn't gonna laugh"

Anansi x Catherine

'Don't you know? Catherine stays on campus during winter vacation. She says she has nowhere to return to.' The words replayed in Anansi's head as he walked through the empty Heartslabyul dorm. He twirled the small branch of sakura blossoms he had in his hand as he walked. Finally noise broke through the silence, a faint piano followed by a soft voice. Anansi lifted an eyebrow but walked towards the sound. As he neared her room he chuckled 'yep, thats Cathy' he smiled to himself. Catherine was in her own world as she let her fingers dance on the piano, singing a song of her childhood. Anansi walked behind her, standing still for a moment as he let her finish. And when she did he gave a faint clap.

"You have a pretty voice, sakura". Catherine squeaked, jumping a bit in shock. Her ears were pinned back, tail fluffed up. She nearly fell out of her bench as she turned to look at him "Anansi!!" She hissed. Her reaction made him chuckle. Softly he put the sakura blossoms in her hair, letting his hand linger for a moment "I mean it, you should let me listen to you play the piano more" Catherine's face was red, grumbling as she looked away "I-if you want..." She started. "Hmm?" Anansi leaned against the piano. Quickly Catherine tugged him by his shirt, making him sit next to her.

"Don't ruin my piano." She hissed "Fine fine~" he chuckled, leaning to brush his nose against hers. Catherine blushed more "J-j-just sit there and don't do anything!!" "Sure kitty cat~" he teased. Catherine grumbled, taking a deep breath before beginning to play again. Anansi leaned against her faintly as she played, taking in the piano and her voice. Catherine smiled a bit, trying to hide it but her tail wrapped around Anansi's back.

Akari x Mae

"Take it." Akari stated curtly as she shoved a small box towards Mae. The fox's ears perked up "Oh?" She tilted her head as she moved the box in her hands "Just open it." "I'm just taking it all in, it's rare that you give me a gift" Mae giggled, tails wagging happily as she opened the box before stopping "This-?" "I tried to make you something. I thought it would fit you." Akari uttered, turning away with a slight blush "Awwwww!!!" Mae cooed, going to hug her girlfriend who only pushed her away.

"I take it as you like it?" She still didn't look at the fox "I love it" Mae grinned. Gingerly she put on the jewelry, showing it off "Ta-da~" she giggled. More tails appeared as she hugged Akari tightly "I love you~" Mae pecked her cheek "I.. I love you too... Now let me go. And 3 tail limit!!" She shouted, Mae pouted but obliged "No fair, no one else is here anyway. I should be able to do whatever I want with you" the fox huffed. "Behave!" Akari glared.

let's fight with gentle words til time lend friends,  and friends  their helpful swords  as the court seeks the presence of their sought after.

two wanted connections  have been added.  

𓏲ּ  ֶָ  𝑤𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑜𝑠𝒕𝒗  ⁝         CERYSE  of  house  FLORENT,  the  RULING  LADY  of  BRIGHTWATER  KEEP  requests  the  presence  of  their  GOOD  BROTHER  /  FORMERLY  BETROTHED  at  court.  their  portraits  seem  to  resemble  colin  morgan,  bradley  james,  douglas  booth,  richard  madden,  utp  -  and  whisperers  among  the  court  seem  to  say  the  following  regarding  their  relationship:  ceryse  was  his  promised,  long  before  his  older  brother  laid  eyes  on  her.  and  maybe  it  was  out  of  duty,  or  a  sense  of  territory  over  her,  but  the  idea  of  letting  her  go  was  sour.  she  was  dutiful  and  faithful  to  him,  through  and  through,  for  as  long  as  she  had  arrived,  until  the  then  ruling  lord  gave  her  hand  away  to  his  brother.  it  was  a  question  of  individualistic  pride,  and  the  little  pride  house  florent  held  onto,  and  the  lesser  of  two  evils  won  out.  inner  fighting  was  unavoidable,  and  i  can't  see  her  hating  him.  he  was  kind  to  her  when  she  arrived,  in  unfamiliar  surroundings,  and  had  claimed  he  could  make  her  happy.  he  was  a  good  husband  prospect,  and  as  the  second  son's  wife,  she  could've  been  comfortable.  but  they  didn't  have  the  spark  she  has  with  her  husband  now.  in  the  end,  he  lost  her  hand,  and  it's  up  to  the  applicant  whether  that  has  soured  the  relationship  between  herself  and  him,  or  if  there  is  still  longing  in  their  connection.  you  need  not  seek  contact  with  @SACRAMENTES  &  @HAMARTIALED  to  discover  the  truth  behind  these  whispers.    this  particular  dynamic  seems  to  be  POSITIVE/NEGATIVE  in  nature,  and  for  a  noble  of  thirty  to  thirty  two  name  days  it  is  most  surprising.

[hell-comes-to-gotham]

Sora al Zahrani, Ra’s al Ghul’s first wife. He married her and when a prince killed her Ra’s retaliated and then founded the League of Assassins. 

Amina Raatko, Ra’s al Ghul’s second wife. 

Amina was born Ky Ae-Min to a Korean father (Ky Sung-Ho) and an Arabian woman (Nylah Raatko) whose family had been in League for 3 generations. Ae-Min was Ra’s second wife and definitely his least favorite. When she discovered that she was pregnant, she was terrified. She had grown up in the League and she knew that he wanted a male heir. Afraid of what might happen if the baby was a girl, she fled in the middle of the night. She assumed the name Amina Raatko and settled in Russia. She named her child Nyssa and told her stories about her father. Nyssa married a man named Aleksandr Ivanovich Gurenko. They were childhood friends and Nyssa who was not attracted to men only married him because of convenience. They had 3 daughters, Hannah, Mika, and Karina. Hannah married Mikhail Vasilovich and they had a son Alexei. When World War 2 broke out, Nyssa and her family were imprisoned in concentration camps. Ra’s had tracked Amina down and had her killed. He also discovered Nyssa. He visited her and asked about her children. When she said that she had only daughters and that her only grandson was 5. Ra’s was disappointed. He’s hoped for a young heir that he could mold not one that would remember his parents. He left and abandoned them to die. Nyssa would be the only survivor beside her young grandson. After the war she tracked Ra’s down and requested to join the League. He named her Nasira al Ghūl and kept an eye on her. Amina smashed her vial of Lazarus water the night she fled.

Hana Kuznetsov, the third wife. 

Ra’s met Hana Kuznetsov on the trip to Russia to execute Amina Raatko. He brought her back with him as his third wife after seeing her excellent combat strategies. They did love each other and when Dhikrit was born he exiled them to Ukraine instead of having them killed. Dhikrit would grow up there called Dusan being trained by his mother. When Dusan was an adult, Ra’s recalled him to the League where he met Dansui. When Hana joined the League she requested to be given a new name. Ra’s dubbed her Haram al Ghūl. She was born to a Russian father (Leonid Kuznetsov) and an Iranian mother (Elaheh Kabirii). She was born out of wedlock and her mother died when she was a few months old. She gave her vial of Lazarus water to Dusan who gave it to his wife.

Melisande, the last wife

Melisande al Ghūl was born Suen Yan Mah Laqa in Hong Kong to the wealthy Suen Hei-son Yan and his Pakistani wife, Liyana Dhanial. When she was seven her father moved them to England. They chose to anglicise their names. Yan became Matthew, Liyana became Leanne, and Mah Laqa became Melisande. Mellie was given the best schooling and went to college studying toxicology. She also loved music and one summer when she was 25 she went to Woodstock. There she met Rahil Ghali. She fell in love with him and they married. After a year Rahil told her that he was Ra’s al Ghūl. She took it rather well and in turn told him that she was pregnant. He brought her back to the League as his wife. A few months later she bore Taaliah. Ra’s was pleased with the girl and decided that he would raise Taaliah to be his heir’s wife. Melisande was given control of a small group of Shadows and sent to safeguard the League’s business in Hong Kong allowing her to return home. Ra’s also gave her as a sign of trust a vial of Lazarus water. Melisande drank it years later after Taaliah told her that she was pregnant.

Bonus- Dansui Kanakubo, Dusan’s wife, with baby Maarya

Mara’s mother is Dansui Kanakubo, a third generation assassin for the League. She and Dusan adored each other and were very happy when Maarya was born. When Maarya was three and old enough for training Ra’s separated Dusan and Dansui by sending them to different League outposts. Dansui died far from her husband and daughter while Dusan would reunite with their daughter years later. Her married name was Dansui al Ghūl. Dusan gave Dansui a vial of Lazarus water that he had been given by his mother on their wedding night. Dansui drank it but she still died.

Extra info- the Lazarus water vials were Ra’s al Ghul’s wedding gifts to his later wives. Each portrait exists in universe. Sora’s was done from memory by Ra’s. Amina’s was one Nyssa had commissioned years after her mother’s death. Hana’s portrait was Ra’s al Ghul’s wedding gift to Dusan and Dansui. Melisande’s was a gift from Ra’s to Talia when Damian and Attie were born. 

Fun fact- Melisande’s head piece was a belated wedding gift from Ra’s after she joined the League.
