Barista Claire AU with the boys as her customers

Morgen. Claire: Hello, welcome to our coffee shop. May I take your order sir? Morgen: Yes. Hi. Uhmm, I'll have almond milk. Claire: Excuse me sir? Morgen: Just one cup of almond milk. Claire: …Okayyy. Would you like some ice on it? Morgen: Yeah sure. Claire: How about coffee? Morgen: No, my order is fine. Claire: That will be 3 dollars. Morgen: (pays using card) Claire: You know the grocery store is right over there. It's cheaper to buy milk that way.

Nacht. Claire: Hello, welcome to our coffee shop. May I take your order sir? Nacht: Americano, 8 shots. Claire: Are you sure about your order? Nacht: You heard me. Claire: You ordered the same thing yesterday. Nacht: So you remembered after all. Just go ahead and make my drink quickly. Claire: I can offer you a new drink. It's basically your order plus one shot free. Nacht: That's cool. I'll have that. Claire: One 'death by caffeine overdose' coming right up.

Yami. Claire: Hello, welcome to our coffee shop. May I take your order sir? Yami: I'll have one beer. Claire: Sir, this is a coffee shop. Yami: Yeah? Coffee shops sell beer too, right? What don't you have beer? Claire: We do. But sir, its 8 am. Yami: And I want beer.

Prompt: “Fireflies” Pairing: Morgen Faust x Claire Polaris A/N: OC belongs to @whackdreamer​ and was written by request Fanfic type: Oneshot Length: ~0.9k Genre: Fluff 

“And you want to go out into the woods be-cause…” Claire quirked an eyebrow as Morgen was pulling her along into the woods with a smile on his face.

“Trust me dear,” he said with a smile that was as bright as the midday sun, despite it being pitch black outside.

Claire rolled her eyes, but didn’t say anything more to it. Because, even if she wasn’t happy about being dragged into the woods during night time, especially without an explanation, Morgen was worth it. She wouldn’t admit it to him, not with words at least.

But. He was worth it.

He’d always be worth it. Even if she still hadn’t dared to speak out that one word… Or rather those three little words that would make it all so much more… real. Tangible. At least nearly so.

Almost as tangible and warm… and secure as his hold of her was at that moment.

She hadn’t dared yet. Maybe soon. Maybe some day.

“We’re almost there,” he told her.

His voice was eager, almost out of breath, and his eyes were forward. As if he was eager to see what was behind the corner.

And for a moment Claire felt as if there was something more in it. As if the moment, the place they were headed, meant something so much more than what it was. The path, the woods, the gentle, secure hold, it was as if there was something, hidden, like a secret she was supposed to figure out. But it felt definite. Much like those three little words she hadn’t dared to utter.

Then he stopped, turning around, and took a hold of both of her hands.

Her reply, to the act, came with another quirk of a brow, as if to ask what was it.

“Close your eyes, please?” He asked giving her another bright smile that seemed too good to be true. His smile… it just seemed to be so filled with love and affection and everything that was right with the world.

“Fine,” she muttered under her breath.

He took a step forward, holding onto her hands and tugging her along with him. Then another, and another; just walking forward while guiding her steps.

“Why are we doing this?” She asked after her foot hit what must’ve been the tenth tree root on the way.

“It’ll be worth it,” he promised. “Just a little more.”

She sighed to herself. It was alright if it was only a little more. Actually, she didn’t think it’d matter if it was a lot more.

Then he stopped, circled around her and placed his hands onto her shoulders.

“Now you can open them,” he whispered next to her ear.

And so, she opened her eyes to see a lake. The surface of the water was crystal clear. But. What was lighting the small lake, wasn’t stars or the moon. It was thousands upon thousands of fireflies, just dancing around in the air; as if some heavenly waltz she didn’t quite grasp.

“I though you’d like it,” he spoke with a hushed tone. “They… remind me of you.”

She opened her mouth, ready to give a remark. Something about bugs and how they reminded him of her, but… she closed it. Because it was fair. Her magic… had fireflies. It was fair. And if he was reminded of her by a waltz of small, twinkling lights then… it wasn’t so bad… Right?

“They look happy, don’t they?” He asked, walking to her side and looking at her.

“Like me?” She joked as warmth begun to rise to her cheeks.

There was a pause, during which she could practically feel the tender, almost frail smile; amused smile, that rose to his lips. “When you smile, yes.”

She let out a hum that … she wasn’t sure of the tone even herself. Because this was all so very… scary. It was a good scary, but scary nonetheless, and it made her heart thump so loud in her chest.

“Actually there’s… been something I’ve wanted to say, for a while now,” he admitted, placing his hand onto her cheek, and turning her to look at him.

“M-mmm…” There was again that slight feel of… anticipation. That whatever was about to happen was definite.

His eyes averted for a while, and she could swear that she saw a faint blush on his cheeks as well.

“I love you.”

Just like that.

Three words.

The dreaded three words, that she… That made her want to run away. Hide. Never to be seen again. The words that made her want to stay in place. Because… despite it all, she felt that she belonged right there. Under all those swirling fireflies, with him.

“Love you too,” she replied. Three, not quite the same words. But maybe soon. Maybe some day. Soon. She might repeat them as he had spoken them out.

This was the best she could do right now. Because she was still so very afraid of falling too hard, too fast. Even if she wanted to. She wanted nothing more, than to love him and be loved in return.

His shoulders slumped forward, as if having shed a burden, and he moved to wrap her into an embrace. Which she reciprocated.

And he smelled like honey, honey and something so light she couldn’t name. He smelled like all the right choices to make.

Tomorrow, she made up her mind. She’d initiate those three, wonderfully dreadful words to him. Tomorrow. Because she did love him too.

Scully comes out to Mulder as bisexual he responds by also coming out as bisexual

They’re kicked back in Adirondacks by the fire circle, the logs popping and sparking when the flames lick dried sap. The air is just crisp enough to make the heat cozy. Scully brought home cider donuts from the farm stand along her commute, which they wash down with a pitcher of sangria. A cinnamon-sugar crust coats her lips.

It’s been two minutes since he asked her and she hasn’t answered.

“So?” he prods, nudging her foot with his. “It’s been long enough all the sin’s gone out of it, Dana Katherine. Fess up, did you experiment some in college? I’ll absolve you if you did.”

He puts the lewdest possible edge on “experiment” so that she can’t in good faith make a quip about organic chemistry or the effects of acetylcholine on Rana pipiens.

Scully flops her head back against the heavy wooden chair; who cares at this point? The meanest nuns are dead. “Yeah,” she says. “I did.”

She turns to him for a reaction

His eyebrows are up, but he looks genuinely interested rather than smirking. “Oh? Do tell.”

She stares up at the rising column of smoke, tracks it to Polaris. Tracks it decades back. “This girl, Elizabeth. Roommate’s boyfriend’s sister. We…um. We all went out to a bar one night while she was visiting.”

Scully leans into the memory. Calgon and ski sweaters and Aqua Net. Layered bangs, Jordache jeans. Liz’s rum and Coke.

Liz’s hazel eyes, Liz’s blue mascara.

“Anyway. We all had a lot to drink and Claire - that was my roommate - Claire and Elizabeth’s brother were making out in his Cutlass Ciera.”

Liz’s mouth like a taut August plum, the taste of her frosted Revlon lips…

“There was this couch in the back of the bar, some coffee tables, you know the feeling. Anyway, Liz pulled me over. We’d been dancing some, Fleetwood Mac I think, and she kissed me. I was shocked, good Catholic girl that I was. But I was three shots in, and it was college, you know? We settled on the couch, kind of drunk I guess….”

She swallows hard, looks at Mulder. “Is this weird? It seems kind of weird.”

He shakes his head, eyes bright in the flames. “Go on.”

“We were kissing, mostly. She touched my breasts through my shirt, slipped her hands down my jeans but not my underwear. It was pretty innocent, I don’t know. I didn’t see her again after that but it definitely changed my perspective some. I began noticing if I found a woman attractive. Got at least a bit more comfortable with the idea, anyway. Stopped telling myself I just liked her hair or her outfit.”

She hears his breathing thicken. Just a little, but it’s there.

“And never after?” he asks.

Scully wonders what else he isn’t asking her. Wonders what it must be like to be young now. She shakes her head, takes a pull of sangria. Chews a chunk of macerated pineapple.

“No,” she says. “I came close a couple of times, but no.”

She wishes she had a cigarette or a joint. Something to do with her hands and her mouth even after so many years. And even after so many years she doesn’t tell him about what she thought of Esther Nairn, about whether she wanted to kill Diana or be Diana or fuck Diana.

They watch the fire for a time. Hear it crackle, gaze into a vast and endless sky. There are old gods there, older than hers. She knows that now. She embraces it.

“What about you?” Scully asks. “All those posh Eton boys at Oxford, surely one struck your fancy.”

She doesn’t really expect anything of it, but she asks to make him confirm or deny. To deflect. It’s how she’s been trained. And she’s endlessly intrigued by his formative years, her well-bred, prep-school lover. They’d practically invented sodomy, hadn’t they?

Mulder makes a soft, throaty noise. Grabs a donut and takes a huge bite.

She turns to him. “Oh my god,” she says. “Did you sleep with Alex Krycek?” Where had THAT come from?

He coughs donut crumbs everywhere. “Scully!”

She clamps on to it. “Did you?”

His turn for the sangria now, blushing. Blushing! Fox Mulder, did you really? she thinks, oddly turned on.

Mulder clears his throat. “He kissed me, but no. He kissed me twice, actually. But no, I didn’t…” he trails off, shaking his head.

“Did you like it?” she asks, her voice sex and sandpaper. Arousing herself further, Jesus.

“Yes,” he says. Holds her stare. Runs his tongue over the lips she’s kissed so many times. That Alex Krycek and Diana Fowley had kissed. The sting is gone, only the fascination left.

All the sin’s gone out of it, he’d said. Yes, it had. Over fifty, of course it had.

“But it wasn’t your first time.” A little breathless, that.

“No.” Licks his lips again. “You guessed right, Agent Scullly, brava. This guy, at uni…we. We didn’t sleep together, but we’d. You know. Touch.”

Agent Scully.

The father of her child looks unimaginably shy. “Ourselves. Each other.”

She knows about Phoebe, all the details. She knows about the cemetery and the gothic drama and the kind of sex that feels like a revelation instead of a mind game.

He knows about Daniel. She sees the child she was then, has long since forgiven the silly girl.

But this is different and, in her mind, sweet. Two boys, lonely, away from home. She hopes they were comforted. Happy.

“Did you…keep up with him?”

Mulder shakes his head, mouth a little swollen in the primal orange glow. “It only lasted a term before he graduated. Never spoke after that. Phoebe, you know. Other women.”

“Alex.”

He grins at her. “You have to admit he was awfully pretty, especially for a complete piece of shit.”

Scully laughs. “That he was.”

She reaches for his fingers in the dark.

In the light.

bleeding and a run

CW: blood (as per title) guns, hospital whump, being really high on morphine in said hospital, slavery mention, asassination mention, ecoli mention, mild swearing,

Tatiana

----

Several people were at my door, a girl with olive skin and a very tall redhead girl that I had to look straight up to meet the eyes of, and she carried a passed out, bleeding-in-many-places Cami in her arms. Cami was almost dwarfed in comparison to this girl. Almost. Cami was about a foot shorter.

My mother and I let them inside, then conversed for a minute in Portuguese to figure out what we’d do, when my mother recognized something about the tall one.

“Wait- are you Night- Claire Malkom’s kid?”

“How do you know her name?” the redhead asked. Her voice had lowered by about an octave.

“You’re little Magdalena? Oh my God, last time I saw you you were so little!”

“I- don’t know you,”

She backed away.

Cami’s eyes slowly blinked open, and she mumbled, “Cuz, where are we?”

“That’s Airi- Ariana’s kid?” Lara said.

Magdalena nodded.

The ambulance arrived, and Lara said, “I’ll call Ariana, okay Magdalena?”

“Okay,” she replied.

Magdalena and the other girl took Cami to the ambulance and didn’t return.

Lara took out her phone and called someone, speaking very rapidly in French. I didn’t speak French, so I didn’t get much out of it, but when she hung up, she said, “We’re going to the hospital,”

We went out to the car, and my mom drove us there, then parked and hugged a tall red-headed woman wearing a knitted sweater and sweatpants. Not ideal for August.

My mother introduced us, and Ariana smiled at me. She seemed ancient, though she looked about thirty. My mom’s age.

A man with dark hair and pale skin, holding the hand of a girl with white hair, extremely pale skin and a red and white cane in her other hand approached us and gasped, “Any update, mom?”

Ariana nodded and said, “She’s in the ICU right now, awaiting surgery,”

She hugged him and said, “Don’t you worry Jon- Xoya, she’ll make it,”

We entered the hospital, and a few hours later, Ariana was told she could go to her daughter’s room now.

We went to Cami’s room, and she lay in the bed, an oxygen mask over her mouth and nose. 

In and out, in and out.

Her wrists had IVs in it, with blood in one, some fluid in another. She had patches on her eyebrow, a bandage peeked out from under the light blue hospital gown. Her hair and the blood were the only colors in the room.

Her eyes blinked open, and I saw liquid gold for a moment, then her eyes dimmed and she went limp again, her arm angled oddly to the point it would be stiff when she woke up.

Ariana moved her arm back to a comfortable position, and she rolled to the side and mumbled, “Mommy, where am I?”

Ariana kneeled close to her and whispered, “Hospital,”

“Really? Did I get ‘im?”

“Get who?”

“Hunter,” she mumbled, “Did he finally realize he needed to leave me alone?”

“I’m sorry, Cams, no,”

She didn’t notice, and squinted up at the ceiling.

“Polaris’s really bright tonight,” she mumbled.

“Cams, we’re inside,”

“Oh, really? Cool,”

—

Cami didn’t come to school for the next week, then returned in a wheelchair. She had bandages on her leg, and she looked terrified of Mr. Simmons now. I couldn’t see why, he was strict, but he was kind and gave us an extension for her not being there.

Not being at school didn’t stop her from working.

She wheeled next to me and leaned on my shoulder, then said in her forever quiet voice, “So, how’s the project going?”

“I have a bunch of photos and info now,”

“Yay!” She sounded slightly louder here.

She hugged me and said, “So, do you think Ms. Delano will be fine with me missing a week of rehearsals and showing up in a wheelchair?”

“Yeah, she’s pretty nice about things like that,”

“Thank god, last teacher I had got mad at me when I was hospitalized with E. coli O157:H7,”

“What?”

“E. coli on steroids,”

“Yikes. My mom told me about an E. coli outbreak when she was eight that killed some of her friends,”

“Damn,”

“Yeah, my mom said there wasn’t much access to hospitals at the time,”

We went back to work and I realized, I had no idea where my mother grew up or lived before here. Just that she grew up in a communidade, or favela if said by the upper class people. The places where the descendants of former slaves ended up because the government failed to provide for them.

I texted her about it when I got out of Mr. Simmons’ class, and she said about an hour and a half later, an entire other class passing, ‘It's a complicated story, one I’ll tell you someday.’

Someday. A nice promise, although non-definitive.

After Chem was over, I went to lunch, and Moon brought her friend Marina over. We tolerated Marina, not some of Moon’s other friends who’d annoyed all of us, and certainly not Kira, who enjoyed spouting slurs and getting scolded by everyone else about it.

Even Moon barely tolerated her.

Kira decided to come over. She had dyed snow-white hair to match her white ears and tail, and at the time, she wore all dark colors, an odd contrast.

She slammed her hands in front of Cami and hissed at her, and Cami ignored her. 

“I’m talking to you,” Kira snapped.

Cami looked up with a bored expression and said, “Could’ve sworn you weren’t talking,”

Kira’s left ear twitched and her lip curled into an animalistic snarl.

“Shut up!” She snapped.

“You’ve done most of the talking,” Cami remarked.

Kira’s hair and tail bristled, and Cami looked up at her for a moment, and I saw a golden glow for a split second.

Kira opened and closed her mouth, then hissed, “How dare you?”

“How dare I what?” Cami asked, her tone just as gentle as when she started talking.

“You know what I mean!”

“I really don’t,”

Kira snarled louder and called her an awful word. 

Cami’s expression hardened, and she snapped, “You’re lucky I can’t stand right now,”

I heard rain above, even though the weather could normally be seen for miles, and there was no trace this morning. Lightning struck right outside the school, and I jumped when I saw the burning almost-white light hit a tree. Murmurs of worry echoed through the cafeteria, and at our table, all but Cami looked spooked. Cami, instead, looked exhausted and tilted to the side with the next lightning strike. She stayed upright because of the wheelchair’s seatbelt, but we weren’t sure what to do. As the storm continued, her breathing slowed, and eventually, just as quickly as it began, it ended, and she opened her eyes and gasped for breath, almost choking.

Almost, thankfully. She was fine after a moment, just- off. She didn’t know what was going on until we filled her in.

Then she wheeled away, took out her phone and texted for a moment, then returned.

The bell rang, and I tried to ask her what happened, and she blew me off and said, “It’s nothing, I have… narcolepsy,”

Liar.

But I didn’t press.

I didn’t change how I spoke to her, either, it was her business, not mine.

When class went out for the day, she went straight to the theater after giving me a hug, and I went to the bus.

Cami

----

“So, what happened?” Addy asked.

“I got shot six times,” I replied.

“Oh.”

I wheeled myself to the edge of the stage, tried my hardest to hop up, only for pain to shoot through my arm, and I fell back down.

I got back in the chair and wheeled the long way, through the back. Thankfully, there was another way, through the chorus room.

I had to be careful wheeling down the ramp in the room and wheeled backstage.

Eli was doing the first scene. The play we were doing was an old classic from back during the first Civil Rights movement, a love story suggesting that shifters get equal rights as well. Most involved in the movement agreed, but the humans in charge at the time sucked and said no. The vice president at the time was actually assassinated by a member of congress for pushing for a shifter rights bill in 1968. So we waited for twenty years for the second movement, and that one, humans finally relented and now the kenomi and dragon-folk had rights. The dragon-folk often lived in the packs, however, and often didn’t care. Olivia was one of the non-traditional dragon-folk, both physically, as a more unique thing that couldn’t fly, and mentally, she had a dream, and she longed to make sure that no one would ever forget it. She wanted to make it safe for all of us to return as ourselves. 

Eli shifted as the script said and a voiceover would allow them to speak on the show night. Many shifters couldn’t speak in our animal forms. I wasn’t one of them who couldn’t, I just didn’t enjoy doing so, it felt weird.

When they got off the scene, they high-fived me and said, “How’d I do, Critura?”

“Great!”

I looked at my book as I wheeled onto the scene, in the middle of the other’s monologue as the book told me. Seeing my wheelchair, it threw my scene partner, Sebby, off a bit, but he quickly stopped his surprise and continued the scene. I got to tell his character off for being an ass, as I’d adopted Eli’s character, Jenny.

It was really fun.

He stood there, character dumbfounded for a moment, and we exited in opposite directions. Me, stage right, him, stage left. 

I didn’t have to go back on ‘til scene four, an ensemble scene in which people were gossiping while I told Eli’s character to go straight to the press about the mistreatment at work. 

Eventually came four o clock, and we all had to go, and I wheeled out when Xoya called me. They and their girlfriend, Winter, were in Xoya’s SUV, and Winter looked in my general direction, smiled, and greeted me when I got in the car.

We didn’t talk much of the drive, though I wanted to tell them everything that had transpired.

Don’t worry, Cams. Xoya’s mental voice touched my mental form. 

“Don’t do that,” I said, “Its weird,”

“Well, if you bothered with the exercises I gave you, I wouldn’t be able to,”

I threw up a wall of my magic internally, solid rain dust, almost like what littered the ground after that storm I’d accidentally caused. That beautiful dust didn’t always come, but when it did, you could tell exactly where I exploded.

Xoya dropped me off at the gravel path, then started their journey back to theirs and Winter’s shared apartment. I walked up, then got inside and went into my room, and lay back on my black and navy-blue bed, the only orderly part of my paint splattered walls. All had meaning, yet to most, it looked eccentric.

My closet was black, the color black helped me to calm down. Unfortunately, I didn’t have my calming, black leather jacket anymore because of the amount of times I was shot in the torso the week before. My ceiling was navy blue. The color for sleep.

I’d go over the rest, but I wouldn’t have the energy to write all that, so just imagine an abstract painting of all colors. And I do mean all of them. Every color I knew.

I peeled off my shirt and traced the old scars that ran down my torso to my thigh. The long gone pain that made me feel as I made my former friend feel.

I missed Hunter. I wondered if Marina missed me, if Hunter told her. I wasn’t about to ask, on the chance she got scared and stayed away.

I pulled myself onto my bed and shifted. I got off and walked out the room, and I walked through the woods. I was strong in this form, and I needed to stretch my legs.

—

I lay down on an angled log and ate some termites and probably decimated the population while I was at it, but I couldn’t help it. It tasted like wood grilled meat, although I wasn’t sure what kind.

Someone approached me, and I looked up and saw Lyorna and Lizzie, about three hundred feet away. Lizzie was so excited and kept bouncing up and down, but I wanted to be alone.

I stood and padded away, and heard Lizzie following after me, despite Lyorna’s protests about how it was probably a bad idea to touch a wolf.

The Critura of the Snowdrift pack eventually managed to lead Lizzie away, and I decided to return the favor. I stalked them for about an hour before the wind changed, and Lyorna looked right at where I was in the shadows and giggled.

“Lena, what’s up?”

“Just thinking,”

I emerged and let Lizzie touch me, as she so clearly wanted, then I continued on my walk, laughing.

I lay in some sand and rolled around, when I tasted human on the air.

I went underwater, then rolled until my dark patches were on top, careful not to let out my oxygen. I occasionally craned my neck to poke my nose out, breathe out and in, and lower it again.

Something grabbed me, and I twisted, kicked, then swam to deeper waters. My feet couldn’t touch the ground in my human form, I doubted what grabbed me could. A fish passed by, and I resisted the temptation to eat it as I kicked to stay above water.

On the opposite shore, I saw several people, but I have pretty bad vision. But I recognized the scent of them and swam towards them.

Strider Deadzone FR

Quand j'ai lu que "le strider et un peu complexe en tant que puzzle 3d" dans les commentaires (https://www.gameontabletop.com/cf723/deadzone-3e-edition.html), j'ai un peu craint l'assemblage de cette figurine.

Mais ayant une petite habitude des maquettes et ayant bien regardé le livre des factions et les différentes possibilités du Strider, ce n'est pas si compliqué que cela.

J'ai donc ouvert le sachet et assemblé les pièces par logique. (1ére photo au dessus)

Et pour que cela soit clair, j'ai assemblé en grand sous-ensemble.

Cockpit/buste (flèche verte) avec différentes options : fermé (haut gauche) , partiellement détruit (haut droite), ouvert (flèche rouge).

Le bassin (au milieu) les jambes (à gauche et droite) les pieds (en dessous) et la genouillère de la jambe droite (flèche rouge)

Jusque là pas trop de difficulté.

Et voilà l'armement et les bras :

première option :

Au centre le cockpit, épaulières (flèches rouge), haut du bras (flèches verte), Lance-flammes d'assaut (bas gauche) et tronçonneuse (bas droite)

Deuxième option :

Au centre le cockpit, épaulières (flèches rouge), haut du bras (flèches verte), avant bras (flèches bleu), coudière gauche (flèche cyan) poignet gauche (flèche orange), canon Polaris (flèche jaune)

L'insertion du poignet gauche au niveau du canon Polaris m'a posé le plus de problèmes.

Des options supplémentaires, épaule Lance-roquettes (haut droite), différents pilotes et ornements.

Sur la grappe avec les épaulières, il y a les 2 coudières alternatives pour le canon Polaris et d'autres ornements.

[succulentsunrise]

T-thank you so much for the follow🥺

I shall barge into your ask box so that I can introduce my (feral) BC OC child, Claire Polaris. After I read Icree's feel on magic I think they could be friends. They are both technical in their approach.

Claire in her younger years may have hostility towards nobility (sorry Icree), but she calms down eventually... I promise. They can definitely get along right? Right? Icree can be the extrovert that adopts introvert Claire. Their possible friendship is even supported by the saying 'Float like a butterfly, sting like a firefly'.

Claire screaming at the back: "That's not how the saying goes!"

Welcome to the inbox, feel free to barge it! 🥰 Claire seems like a passionate person with a bit of growth ahead of them 😁

I think if Icree and her met, they could get along! One of Icree's strengths (and the reason she has so many friends) is adapting how she acts with different people. She wouldn't obviously go as far as Yami in your Light of Fireflies and fight, but she'd probably find a way to get Claire see that she doesn't mean any harm 😁 she is, however, really noble-like in the sense that because her family just got into the circles, Icree minds how she acts when other nobles are around, and that might piss of Claire, maybe? 😂

But I definitely think they could be friends!

[hybridanafrost]

For the ship ask. What are your thoughts on Claire x "the boys™" (Morgen, Yami, and Nacht)

Hi Whack! 😀

Makes sense, compels me!

I love the dynamic Claire has with all 3 simultaneously, especially during the Gray Deer days. There's just something about it that feels so right with all of them together. Almost as if they were the blueprint and inspiration for the Black Bulls before the squad even existed. They're a rambunctious found family unit of misfits in their own way.

Claire is a short-tempered bastard of a noble with a peasant background. Yami is a brutish foreigner. Morgen is just unusually kind and pure-hearted despite all of his privilege as a noble, and Nacht is just an emo edgelord. Lol

They may argue and squabble, but they'll always have each other's backs.

[whackdreamer]

Yami tries to teach Claire ki.

Yami: All living things have ki. It's the flow of life force. Now, try closing your eyes. Claire: (closes eyes) Okay…? Yami: (stares at her) Can you feel it? Claire: Feel what? Yami: (thinks how she's cute with her eyes closed like that) Yami: This! (flicks her forehead instead). Claire: 🤬 Yami Sukehirooooo!!!!!

[loosesodamarble]

The circumstances of Claire and Josele meeting do matter! In fact, if you go on the other side of the space-time distortion is two Nachts ending up talking about their respective OCs. Claire-verse Nacht: "Friendzoned?" Josele-verse Nacht: "Brother-in-law zoned." (Josele-verse Nacht had it real bad, if I do say so.)

“Brother-in-law zoned”!

OQNDGDEVKWIDOXBSHFULWNE!

Yeah, I do kind of put Nacht through the wringer when it comes to Josele.

I just took Nacht's already traumatic backstory and made it worse. He's a tragic character and I just wanted to add to it.

He puts the blame for Morgen's death and Josele's curse on his shoulders. In this universe, he took not one but two of Yami's precious friends. And Josele being cursed also took her away from her father.

Even after Josele's curse is broken and the devils are dealt with, it'll be a long path to healing and reconciling with the past. The ending for Nacht and Josele is ultimate a happy one, though in a bittersweet way.

I don't know what you have planned for Nacht in the Claire-verse but it probably won't be that nice either.

Also, when I said that "the details of how Josele and Claire meet are negligible" I meant more along the lines that I don't care how it would happen. Although if I had to contrive a way, it would involve some Time and Space Magic being channeled through World Tree Magic to connect the universes.

Claire and Josele meeting would be one thing. But imagining the Fausts of the different worlds meeting would be insane. There'd be four people with the same face running around. Can you imagine?
