#A Clockwork Knight and His Sugar-Spun Faery|Baz and Beth

[brooklynislandgirl]

What’s something your muse has done, in canon or in a thread, that just makes you Love ThemTM?

Tell Me No Questions... || Accepting I think scattered just between Baz's blog and mine and it was so hard to narrow it down to my top three, my absolute favourite wtf/I love her your honour moments between them are as follows: ~*~

III. Trying to seduce Baz by doing a play-by-play of a Shark Week documentary. || Shield Verse Why? Because WHO DOES THAT ELIZABETH?!?! And in my head, that was one hundred percent said in Riley's exasperated tones. Honest to goodness, I was cry-laughing writing that because it's so weird and so specific. Worse, she knows he can't hear but a third of what she says, on a good day, so it makes no sense whatsoever. But also...that she thinks he'd even understand if he could hear all of it. It's one of those moments when it's very much the case When Dumb Meets Oblivious. But at the same time, it's absolutely on brand and weirdly probably DID put her in a romantic mood, which kind of concerns me. But we don't get to choose our muses, do we? II. The Story she tells Baz around the campfire regarding That One Time At Doctor Camp || Avatars verse. Why? Because I have absolutely no idea if she made it up on the spot {or at least the biggest part of the story, with all of the relative details} or if it actually happened. There are three muns and six muses involved in the way she told it, and none of them are sure either. Is she trying to mess with Baz? Did it actually happen? If not, why did she go that route? If it did...did she exaggerate it, or remembers it in an entirely different way? We may never know. and currently...one of my favourite moments... I. "I know what a'tape is." || Star Wars AU Because, well. You know what children are like. Especially when they get to about the equivalent age of seven or eight, and are trying to be so adult in situations that they have no idea, and therefore tend to mimic their parent/s in such a specific way. I can, and did, see her plain as day in my head. Barely tall as Baz's waist when he's standing, as opposed to her father's six-foot-plus. That utterly imperious lift of her chin that screams 'peasant' at the top of her lungs but she thinks she's so mature, so above everything. But it also points out that her education isn't as flawless as she might think. It points out what future Keni will be like when she has to double-down on a bluff check when the stakes are so far higher than one man's opinion. It points out that only children tend to be very lonely and will use any excuse to be a part of a grown-up's world, especially one willing to give them attention. I have to give Baz huge credit for not laughing in her face and being far kinder than Rel would have, if he'd been there to witness her. She might be her father's daughter, but she's definitely going to end up dad's girl.
