I love the idea of Kisara becoming an ecologist, if only because her eccentricities would be right at home in any university's biology department.

For the twins in time AU, I genuinely wonder what kind of people the young twins grow up into because of Stanâs/Fordâs influence. Especially if it takes years for the portal to get fixed.
(Sorry if it seems like I already sent this question, I donât know if it got sent the first time I asked)
I havenât fully fleshed out how Ford grows up in the past but I do have thoughts on Stan presently
#heâs still his goofy brash self as well#but I do think he gets an outlet for all that through monster hunting and trips and stuff#he does get comfortable here thoughâŠ#Iâm thinking we have something play out thatâs similar to the science fair#where they get close to being able to send him home and he breaks something or maybe even purposely sabotages itâŠ#and I think he sneaks out a lot too#maybe he uses the secret identities in that way like when heâs in town heâll pretend to be Pinley pinington#and thatâs how he develops his scammy/improv skills#FORD ON THE OTHER HAND#I think he might actually be MORE emotionally stunted because Stan tries so hard to protect him#that it goes the other way#they kind of become reliant on each other in a really unhealthy way or maybe Stan sort of steers ford away from his smart stuff#to prevent the future from happening#not maliciously but yk#like I said I havenât fleshed his story out as fully yet so I will get back to you#but there are some interesting possibilities#my art#ask#gravity falls#twins in time au#Stan pines#Stanley pines

Dpxdc Au - Tim and Danny are Twins, have been through all the introductions and after a few years decide to have The Audacity.Â
At some point it hits the two of them, that they really do act alike sometimes. Like, mannerisms and small detail micro expressions, the whole nine, so Danny and Tim decide to take advantage of this.
Parent trap style swapping but all within the same household, they cut their hair and swap clothes, and get in a few practice runs around the halls of Wayne Manor. No one in the family catches them through at least 3 family dinners, so they go for the larger gambit.Â
Tim wants to go to high school for a bit and get back into skate boarding with low stakes- Thats what he tells Danny at least, he really wants to spend the time dismantling the GIW from the epicenter in Amity Park. It works out that Tim accomplishes this in record time (explosives didnât require ethics in his opinion) and does actually get to enjoy his hobbies again for a bit.Â
Danny wants to tell off the WE board members and get some proper Red Robin training so heâs not so dependent on his powers when facing human enemies (they were squishier than ghosts, restraint was key)- Thatâs what he tells Tim when the reality is heâs going to lead a hostile takeover of DalvCo. and well, yeah, actually get some training in.Â
No one catches on except for Kon.Â
After theyâve swapped back and their missions are debriefed, Tim asks him why he never fell for it? Simply put: âUh, dude. Your twin doesnât have a heartbeat half the time, it was pretty easy to tell.âÂ
#dc x dp crossover#dc crossover#dp crossover#dpxdc#dcxdp#danny phantom#tim and danny are twins au#this obviously only happens after a butt load of therapy by which danny admits that hes actually super smart#tim is like great dude let me help you out by taking down a government branch#what like its hard?#and danny is like great dude let me get you some assets from our enemies#as a treat for later#Tim and danny are incredibly similar but the purposefully lean into those differences on most days#the drakes gift danny to another rich couple who gift him away so many times until he is given to aunt alicia and is raised with the fentons#tim and danny looked at one another after meeting for the first time and were just mutually like 'meh might as well have a twin'#kon is 'good friends' with tim lmao#can be tim/kon if you want it to be that way

thinking about mafia shen family au. the system is fucking around with shen qingqius life again and is like yk what if ur not gonna tell your husband anything about yourself then ill force you to. have fun! :D
sqq doesnât even have the time to think 'wtfff??' before Everything Happens. shen yuanâs soul gets shoved back into his original body just moments before he dies. in this version of the au he was choking on food, so he gets the lovely experience of having his airflow blocked again! lucky for him, the system dragged binghe along for the ride so he is saved before he dies again.
this route for mafia au means that the shen family never had to grieve shen yuan. im not sure how the Family reacts to their a-yuan suddenly having a very strong and intimidating significant other (boyfriend? husband?!??? wdym he got married without telling us!?!?) all of a sudden. does shen yuan come out to his family?? no, but also yes, but also not really. they knew he wasn't straight this entire time, so its more like they are coming out to him instead of the other way around. god knows they have bigger skeletons in their closets, they don't care if a twink is in there too.
there is less angst here, and it mostly centers around the comedic factor of shen yuan showing binghe around his house only for them to "stumble upon" an entire closet filled with guns..!?! shen yuan is just standing there in complete horror as binghe grabs a whole ass ar-15!?!?? hes looking at him with the most innocent eyes asking him what this strange metal object is. jesus fucking christ. his white lotus is holding a gun and now he has to explain gun control policies while his brain is leaking out of his ears. he opens his mouth right before an alarm starts blaring everywhere. heâs saved by the bell! except not really, because now six members of his Family are surrounding them and pointing several guns at binghe!!!!! what the actual fuck is going on here!!!!!! this is not how the 'meet the parents' arc is supposed to go!!
#âïž#im gonna name this route#bingqiu shen family mafia au#because i want to write the binggeyuan version#and i wanna specify which mafia aus im talking about when i post. i cant make up my mind on where i want to take this lol#shen yuan mafia au#the 'closet' was actually very well hidden with several different mechanisms locking it away#im sure sy also had to do a finger scan to open it#and he didnt think much about it because 'all the other doors in his house have locks like that!' its no big deal if we open this one#he showed binghe around to all of the secret spots in his family home where he would hide. and one of those spots happened to be a safe roo#that had a closet full of snacks + warm blankets + and several sets of spare clothes to change into#he never knew that there was another door behind all those coats! wow his house has so many cool features in it!#DA GE WHY DO WE OWN SO MANY GUNS WTF#THIS ISNT AMERICA?????????????#BTW the Family thinks that binghe is probably a spy or smth and preying on sy to get to the Family. that might be important to mention. idk#svsss#svsss au#shen yuan#luo binghe#even tho hes barely mentioned... sorry lbh ill expand on your role here later...#scumbag self saving system#scumbag system#mxtx svsss#svsss luo binghe#bingqiu#its there if u squint#i am the system in this case#i want to put sy into so many Situationsâąïž#svsss shen yuan

also i think if roleswap laios and canon laios met theyd immediately start fighting.
#canon laios would blurt out 'why do you look like our dad' and fisticuffs ensue.#shuro........ is a little more complicated#if canon shuro doesnt think too hard about it and just treats the other him like a stranger then theres no problem#on the other hand i imagine he holds himself to high standards and if he sees his other self doing things he considers improper or uncouth.#i imagine hed only speak up if he saw it happen A Lot like hed pull him aside like hey... what the fuck#thered be a bit of 'holy shit i woulda turned out like THAT??' on both sides#roleswap shuro would often get frustrated but i think hed understand that like. thats how the culture is like he lived it too#but i think similarly hed watch laios steamroll og shuro and eventually be like. DUDE. just say something#shorter fuse lmao. anyways still turning this AU over in my head#how much more forward can shuro be before hes unbelievably out of character...#and what if they switched universes!!!!#if laios switched. it would be immediately obvious something is up in the og universe but it may be chalked up to like#a weird mood..... though maybe the party starts to wonder 'hey... is it not possible this is a shapeshifter' đ#but og laios in the roleswap universe...#tbh havent thought too hard on what the party dynamics in that universe might be like assuming all else is the same save for the roleswap#i imagine chilchuck would still get on alright as long as hes being paid upfront and laios is still attentive/ recognises his abilities#and limitations also. marcille................................... hmm#she might treat him more formally and be less close.... may perceive him as more threatening at first meeting#(in terms of like. 'taking falin away' i mean if that makes sense)#but well. u kno how in canon laios Does notice a lot of things about his companions and has a very pragmatic view that surprises them#and they dont tend to notice until he says it aloud because its often overlooked cos of his. everything else.#well. id imagine roleswap laios still notices things but simply would not say it aloud.#the party would also be like .. dude... did he hit his head#if SHURO swapped...................... well it depends when exactly it happened#i imagine it could be a bigger issue with the retainers#im losing steam cos my lower back hurt so bad adgfsdfg i cant get a good position on this chair#but for shuro himself i imagine it would be nightmarish lmao.#roleswap (henceforth RS) shuro would wake up as an adult with the retainers like. ??? was that all a dream?? did i never make it out#meanwhile og shuro ending up god knows where..........#if he ended up with the retainers again he might not immediately realise somethings amiss and try to act normally

ignoring that isabela wouldnt say any of that whenever she says something i want to hear
#i have a really funny au in my head where the reason isabela acts like a kind of simplified exaggerated form of isabela#is that the actual isabela went on a fade rescue mission for hawke#and came out with this isabela who is actually a spirit of fortune or whatever really jazzed about the whole thing#and isabela was like well that sounds like it could get me out of trouble this might as well happen#and let it loose to start a mercenary band. everyone rivaini can tell obviously#but they donât want to burst the spiritâs bubble#meanwhile isabela is somewhere living it up with a permanent very good alibi#veilguard spoilers

â love; heretical and divine
{â} characters tsaritsa {â} notes cult au, yandere, drabble, gender neutral reader {â} warnings blood {â} word count 0.8k
To love a God is heretical. It is an act of blasphemyâ it is to drag them down from their throne of hollow gold, to topple the pedestal the worshipers uphold on their shoulders like lambs at the herders heel. It is the act of forcing them to their knees and ripping that beating heart of glorious gold and beautiful, cruel divinity from their chest, so pure it burns.
To love a God is to make them sin. To make them painfully, horribly human.
To love a God is to sin.
The love of a worshiper is no love at all, brilliant in its raw purity, untainted by sin. It is fear and obedience masked by adoration so overpowering it corrupts. It makes the lamb so unquestioning in it's faith it will never question the knife that cuts, the teeth that rip, the claws that tear. If the Creator deemed them unworthy of the very life crafted by their hands, then they must have committed a sin so grave there lay no salvation for their horrid soul.
But she is no worshiperâ her lips speak of heresy as easily as she breathes, her words nothing but lies, cold and cruel like the ice that crawls along her skin like webs.
She loves a God like a lover should.
A damned sinner reaching longingly for the heavens.
She loves a God in the subtle brush of their lips, their muffled voices behind closed doors as they indulge in curiosity untamed. She is a sinner through and through, but she feels herself fall further with every brush of her hand across their cheeks, every touch she bestows upon them like a lover. She memorizes the imperfections of their body like memorizing a mapâ every scar, every mark, every line drawn on their body like a canvas, her touch the brush that stains the pristine white.
No devoted lamb shall ever see the painting they create in these stolen momentsâ it is for the eyes of a heretic so vile it makes them shudder, their body dirtied by the love of a woman so vile even their divinity is obscured by the ice.
The lambs may be satisfied with fleeting glimpses of gold and empty words from lips that guide them to the jaws of the wolves, but she is not. Her hands crave them like a starving hound, aching to touch that imperfect skin hidden by the veil of gold that obscures the painfully human body beneath. She longs to free them from the golden cage that binds themâ to see their wings blot out the sky, their divinity tainted by sin and making them all the more beautiful for it.
It is a longing that leaves a festering wound that cannot heal, will not heal. Even if it could, she would not let it.
For as much as she tries, deny it as she may, she is no better then the blind lambs following the herder who holds a blade in their hand, glittering like gold in the sun, stained by dull red.
She is a fool, and what a fool they make of her with the touch of their hands against her skinâ so cold it leaves frost on their fingertips. Yet they do not fear the cold, mapping out every inch of her imperfections, carved into her body by her own hands.
She has always been a heretic, cursing the divine until she could speak no more, but if divinity can be found in them â in this love that consumes, that burns her hands and her lips â then she is a Saint, praying at the altar until her throat bled.
But in the end, she has and will always be a cold woman with hands stained with blood. Until it is all she can taste, until it is all she can smell, until it is all she can feel. These hands of hers, heretical and divine, will bleed the God from their veinsâ she will become the wolf to their lamb until the rivers of Teyvat run gold with their ichor, until the gold bleeds into red, the taste of their divinity on her tongue.
Until she drags a God from their lofty throne and makes of them a monster.
There is no greater triumph to the heretic then to love a God into sin. To make a God sin to love.
To love is to be human, and they are no God.
Even if she must tear the gold from their very being until all that's left is something human. Even if Teyvat crumbles and decays, even if it begins over and over again..
She will do it again and again, until the gold can bleed no longer. Until her sins grow too great for Teyvat to contain.
To love a God is to devour, and be devoured. An endless cycle of sin that dulls the glow of gold into something newâ something horrifying and divine, in it's own right. Something just as horrid as her, just as divinely corrupted by the sins she carries on her shoulders like a trophy, as gold as the sun and as cold as ice.
Divinity, carved into something human by love all consuming, until it all bleeds away and they begin their dance anew, for as many cycles as it takes.
An eternity, if she must, of dooming this world of theirs to fire and decay for a glimpse of the being snared by their golden shackles.

NO#obvs still up 2 interpretation go wild this was just what i intended#can u tell i have a lot of feelings abt tsaritsa and concepts of love from her pov. haha.

Buried Treasure in the Sand, the Lynari Desert
"We once met a man who said he dreamed of finding a great treasure buried in the desert. "Everyone burst into laughter, and told him there was no such thing. "But the moment I saw this place, I felt his dream would surely come true. "The desert glittered like a sea of jewels under that shimmering sun."
~ Opening narration, the Lynari Desert
Talking under the cut:
So this took a while! It would have been up sooner, most likely, but Kirby decided to rot my brain for a while.
This is for my Pokemon/FFCC AU, and is part of what could be considered the main story, following Akari and Rei (or Dawn and Lucas). Return to Sender takes place in the same AU, though that mainly follows the train twins.
I learned a lot doing this, and although I know I could probably polish it more, I just want it to be done so that I don't lose motivation with the project and get discouraged. It's time for it to be finished, so it's finished -- not perfect, but as close as it will get.
Tried emulating the fancy script that they use for the dungeon names for the handwriting; it was tricky. Fun fact, I was so into FFCC when I was younger that I actually thought it'd be fun to absorb the script's fanciness into my own handwriting -- thus, my handwriting was once nigh illegible, but has settled to something halfway between cursive and print, still with some excessive swoopiness here and there.
It's never really stated who the narrator is referring to in the opening narration for the Lynari Desert, but I somehow always assumed that it was Hurdy/Gurdy. He would be the most likely to know of a "treasure" hidden in the desert, after all, though he might not remember why. Also, Gurdy is the one you learn the riddle from, so I guess I always just thought it was him.
Anyway, the man in question is Emmet this time around. What's he doing here? I'd love to tell you, but I'll let y'all ruminate on it because this is getting long and alas, I'm too tired to attempt much more coherent thought.
So, thank you all for reading! I am open to constructive criticism, especially about backgrounds and shading, as I consider myself to struggle with those.
Thank you very, very much, and I hope you all have a wonderful, blessed day! (ËáË)/á”áá”áąá” á”á”á”* <3
(program: krita; time taken: about 28 hours, cumulative)
#eggin creatin'#subway boss emmet#submas#pla akari#trainer rei#ffcc au#ffcc pokemon au#eggin's comics#might as well make a comic tag there'll probably be more in the future#this took so much longer than I meant for it to my bad#tldr I found the perfect long kirby music video to listen to for a regular commute of mine#and it got the gears turning again#and kirby descended upon my brain yet again#so yeah that happened

#I'm also thinking about a platonic Pete & Myka soulmate AU and all the bickering that would come with it#Like Pete trying to feel out what the rules are for him dating someone if she and him are soulmates#and Myka's like 'I literally never want to talk about who you have sex with ever'#âBut-â / âNOPE!

Dreams the only sane one thank god đđ everyone slaying tho
Anyway- Where/how is Cross doin đ
- ALT - BILL: HA! HA! HA! BILL: He's doing bury nice! BILL: Don't worry about him at all! BILL: He's having a grave time with his AU!!
- IDK - Two things, for those who figured it out (not saying what happened, you must think!!!), I planned this WAYYY before Jakei made her trans-coded cross announcement and I felt super bad about it considering what happens. And the other thing is I decided to use that announcement to research some sad stuff about what trans, enby, agender, etc people go through in other places besides my own (my town is sorta safe for non cis people) and decided to implement those onto this AU Cross (my other AU SOPV, Cross is living his best life)
For future TW's when we get to Cross/The past: Body(Or gender Or Identity) Dysphoria, Abuse of drugs(I mean... who isn't in this blog?), and Bill(Also, someone just asked about Bill and hoo boy.... Bill is NOT a nice person in this AU(i will go more in depth on that ask than in my pinned) (I mean, sense when was Bill ever nice?))
MAIN: @inkyu
Back | Start | Next
#Character Ask#Story Ask#Also I am not a cis person writing this for context#I swear if one more person think I'm cis I will RIOT. (i'm ripping my hair out rn bc I hate it when that happens)#But yeah Cross in my opinion is the one that might HEAVILY trigger some people#And I want that to be known as someone else (not saying who) is going to follow in his exact footsteps later#I also reviewed that event and my plans for Cross with some people and they said it was okay and I'm hoping it's okay for ya'll as well#anywhos TAG TIME!!!#dream#dream sans#bill#bill sans#ask the druggieverse#atdv#druggieverse#undertale au#mau#multiverse au#undertale#utau#utmv#fanart#tw#cw#Also SOPV imo is one of my calmer/tamer AU's#and also a non au at the same time#it's so hard to explain sense in canon it splits from other MAU's and becomes it's own thing in it's own pool#to better explain think of Aradia's explanation in the Crow Strider AU on MSPFA

teenage menaces
wc: ~850; context: set a few months into the last year of Aldera, Toshinori baits Bakugou into a fist-fight and they got in trouble with admin. this was mostly me testing out whether or not I could write Bakugou without stepping into the bashing zone. izuku pov.
//
The three of them wait outside the classroom: Kacchan impatiently, Izuku anxiously, and Yagi cheerfully.
âYagi-san, what if you get expelled?â Izuku hisses, weaving his fingers together to stop them from twitching.
âThen Iâll get homeschooled? Honestly, Midoriya-kun!â He laughs under his breath, grinning way too big for a boy who got in trouble for beating up the star pupil of Aldera. Kacchanâlooks small, next to him. Small and furious, like he doesnât know the right way to get Yagi to shut up and sit down. Izuku prays that Kacchan never finds out that Yagi is actually All Might. Something might really break.
âShut the hell up,â Kacchan snarls. âI canât hear what theyâre saying.â
âAh, if I know my old manâŠâ
âI told you to shut up!â
âYou donât want to place a bet on it, Bakugou-shonen?â
âWHO ARE YOU CALLING âYOUNGâ?!â
The door swings open to reveal a pale-faced principal and a deeply unimpressed Gran Torino. The latter is out of uniform, but the clean-cut fashion of the button-up and slacks does an effective job at communicating Torinoâs professionalism. He swipes the end of his cane at Yagiâs ankle, and Yagi yelps and jumps in surprise.
âWho are you calling âold manâ?â Torino snaps.
âSorry,â Yagi says unapologetically. âWhatâs gonna happen, jii-san?â
âYouâre suspended for three days,â the old man announces, and because Yagi looks delighted at not having to attend school, meaning Kacchan looks furious at this apparent light sentence, the principal valiantly steps in.
âYouâll obviously have assignments over this period, to reflect on your actions. And Bakugou-kun must have an apology made to him.â
âI donât want his stupid apology!â Kacchan spits.
âFujita-san,â says Torino, âI believe I told you what was going to happen. Iâll get the parentsâ permission. They might even be happy about seeing their son in action, if the boy wants to be a hero. Just get me two teachers.â
âTorino-san, this is a deeply improper way to handle the situationâ!â
âThe entire way youâre running your school is improper,â he drawls. âDonât worry, itâs not an issue unique to your administration. I know what Iâm doing, and I know my boy. He wonât be the one hitting below the belt.â
Izuku connects the dots faster than either Kacchan or Yagi. He blurts out, âAre you having them fight?â, and two blond heads whip around to stare (or glare) him down, then back at each other. Yagiâs grin widens.Â
Torino says mildly, âIn martial arts classes, they call it a spar. Clears the head, knowing the hierarchy⊠of whoâs better.â
The principalâs distress is palpable. âItâs not legal,â he protests.
âIâd win,â Kacchan declares, bristling. Izuku bites his tongue to stop himself from trying to intervene. This is not a fair fight that Torino is setting up; however Quirkless Yagi is, he hasnât lost the experience of his time as All Might, and with all the training that Torinoâs put them through, his muscle memory and reflexes are sharp. Just because Torino is promising to get parental and teacher supervisionâgod, itâs a whole trap. Kacchan canât beat Yagi unless Yagi overestimates him. It would take a legitimate miracle for Yagi to lose.
âI donât know, jii-san,â Yagi says playfully. âIsnât that a little mean to Bakugou-kun? He wonât be able to use his Quirk in the fight.â Unlike today, his smile says.Â
âYou need a Quirk to punch someone down?â Torino responds, and he rolls his eyes at Yagiâs tone. âThatâs when you cross into villain territory. No. This is going to be good old-fashioned fisticuffs.â
Does Kacchan sense it? He must. Heâs never been an idiot. The way his eyes dart down to Torino, assessing, attempting to reassess the old manâs threat level, to so casually propose arranging a fight between two fifteen year oldsâKacchan knows the shape of the trap, then. It just depends on whether he believes he can win.
And Kacchan, Izuku knows, believes in winning.
âMidoriya-kun,â the principal suddenly says, and Izuku flinches at the sheer hope in the manâs tone. âYouâve known Bakugou-kun for a long time. Did he start the fight?âÂ
The weight of all their eyes is overwhelming. His loyalty is being torn two ways, and he doesnât know who to save. If he stops this fight, and denies Kacchan the chance to show off his skills and heart, Kacchan will hate him. If he stops this fight, and affirms that Yagi threw the first punch, thenâAll Might wonât hate him. The wry twist to Yagiâs smile is basically a blessing to disavow his fellow Quirkless classmate.
But Izuku doesnât want to disappoint All Might, or even Gran Torino.
He trembles, breathes shakily, and says, âKacchan would never miss a fight he couldnât win,â and in the time his audience takes to process, Izuku quite deliberately sides with Yagi. Not hiding. Standing elbow to elbow, in solidarity.
Kacchanâs face twists. âDeku,â he hisses.
âFocus, boy,â Torino says, and his cane clacks against the linoleum flooring. âYour fightâs with Toshinori. That is, if your parents agree to supervise.â
âWhat if theyâre too busy?âÂ
âWeâll find a time.â

(alan wake-gravity falls crossover) man i love that character. you know, the deeply paranoid author who made a pact with a dark entity that ultimately ended with him stranded in another dimension separated from his loved ones for years at a time? takes place in the pacific northwest? has twin imagery associated with him and a reoccurring specific piece of symbology related to the unfortunate situation they're in? doesn't ever explain the reasoning behind his actions and instead just kinda goes "bro trust me"? yeah he also wears an outer layer of clothing with elbow pads on it, that one.
#my art#stanford pines#alan wake (the man)#ford pines#gravity falls#alan wake#remedyverse#SAtT au#i am. normal about the crossovers i make up.#what do you mean the esoteric weird horror game about stories and the disney cartoon about family dont have a shared audience. sounds fake.#anyways the comic on the right is in honor of a joke i had to scrap in my fic wip due to a perspective switch.#rip that joke i thought you were pretty funny. i like the idea of alan critiquing his own manuscript pages upon the events happening.#oh i should probably do a warning since theres that crunchy image of the aw2 alan death screen huh. uh#blood#aw2 alan death screen my beloved. literally made me go ''oh god'' out loud in shock and horror when i first saw it#anyways did you know theres an au to this objectively already an au crossover. i call it ''bill cipher gets sent to the shadow realm''#bill doesn't show up a lot in this au he gets one scene where he taunts ford abt alan being a danger#with the implication that the dark place/presence genuinely freaks him out. but in this self indulgence of a self indulgence#alan essentially manages to trick bill into swapping places with him and bill ends up trapped in the writers room/the dark place.#lmao get yötön yö'd idiot. YOU are aleksi kesÀ now.#also i like the idea of zane and bill meeting as well as door and bill meeting. i think they might scare bill a little bit.#just like how zane scares me <3 what a cool character what the fuck is his deal#also you may be wondering why alans in his aw2 look and not aw or awan look despite the fact that lines up closer#to when gravity falls happens-ish. well the answer to that is 1: the crossover uses a lot of the elements from aw2#and 2: i like alans long hair and suit and beard. i like the pathetic sopping look when his hair is in his face

Ben has kind of been having the worst day of his life, what with the dying and all.
Itâs a marked improvement when heâs tramping through the forests of Takodana and a familiar voice demands, âWould you believe me if I told you Palpatine was my grandfather?â
He turns around.
Stares.
Rey stands ten feet away, her blaster pointed at him, a challenge in her eyes.
âWould you believe me if I told you Han Solo was my father?â he says, answering the question with a question.
âYes,â she says, lowering the blaster.
âWell, that answers that,â he replies, turning off his lightsaber.
The silence stretches on.
Takodana is unpleasantly hot.
Why did he ever think wearing all-black was a suitable fashion choice?
Rey falters, apparently not having planned what to say if she got this far. âI suppose this is where we save the galaxy.â
âI suppose so,â he agrees. âTo Exogol, then?â
âHave you got the Wayfinder already?â she asks, raising an eyebrow in surprise.
âPicked it up on the way here.â
âAh. That simplifies things.â She holsters her blaster and sets off at a brisk pace, adding as she brushes past him: âAnd try not to die this time. It was so inconvenient.â
âYou died first,â he mutters.
#ngl this is like. the only content I have for this AU#I found it when I was going through my WIP folder and I have absolutely no memory of writing it whatsoever#but I decided what the heck might as well throw it into the pick a snippet game#did not expect it to win but my expectations often prove wrong lol#anyway yeah this is the Rey And Ben Save The Galaxy (Again) AU#where. idk. i guess they kill palpatine and snoke and defeat the bad guys while being kinda bored and whatever about it#and also confusing the crap out of everyone else#(not a shipfic btw because their dynamic is so much funnier to me as. like. casual friends who happen to be a dyad in the force)#fic snippet#or maybe a ficlet idk#depends on if this au ever gets expanded#star wars#star wars sequel trilogy#ben solo#rey star wars#(I'm not tagging rey palpatine and I'm not tagging rey skywalker ok. I'm just not doing it. shes rey star wars)
