Finding Forgiveness (or, Text Barrages and Apology Dances)

Mini Meta-Musing #8

Forgiveness after a disagreement or an argument is such a simple yet complicated thing. In even the closest, most intimate relationships, it requires a great deal of trust and love. The person who caused the hurt must surrender some of their pride for the sake the loved one. They must also trust that it is safe to do so. The person who was hurt must be willing to let go of their anger or resentment, and open themselves up to the relationship again.

In the first episode of Season 2 of Good Omens, we are presented with two relationships in conflict. One uses words and words and more words... but there is no listening, no trust. The other settles the conflict with very few words at all. With a dance, in fact. Yet the trust and love there is deep and obvious.

The first is Nina and her partner Lindsay. Lindsay has assumed that Nina broke her trust by not calling when she was locked in the coffee shop with her phone out. Sure, the situation sounds a bit implausible... but Lindsay sends a barrage of accusatory texts before she knows any of the facts. As the days go by, we learn that not only is Lindsay controlling, but she also has no faith in her partner. She dumps words and accusations and guilt trips, never believing or listening or trusting, until finally breaking up with Nina in a resentment-filled text message.

After seeing that first deluge of text messages when Crowley restores power to the coffee shop, we are immediately shown a far different way to resolve conflict. The next scene is Crowley's melodramatic return to the bookshop. Aziraphale and Crowley have a lasting, deeply rooted relationship. Although some argue that they don't communicate enough, especially in this resolution, I propose that they have found a lovely and mature way to resolve serious conflicts.

Everytime I watch this scene, and see how intensely difficult it is for Crowley to accept doing this, I'm actually a little in awe. Crowley HATES DOING THIS DANCE!!! But as much as he hates humbling himself like this, he Loves Aziraphale MORE. It is far more important to him to fix their conflict quickly, be back on good terms, and help his Angel solve this Gabriel problem. Although his face looks fierce and his tone is irritated, his eyes never leave Azi's. I think they look a bit imploring. The apology is in his golden eyes.

" 'Kay?" is not just, "Are we okay now?" It's also a trust, a gift. "You understand how much I care about you, right? I really do accept how stubborn and thoughtless I was earlier, and you see that I'm very sorry, even though it's hard for me to say the words, yeh?"

Aziraphale is of course, deep down, just a bit of a bastard, so he does take a bit of a comeuppance in his "Very nice." Many of us read a bit more in that look... Crowley looks very elegant in that deep bow! Nonetheless, Azi is happy to be reconnected with his demon, and he eagerly engages with Crowley's brainstorming about their "tiny miracle."

They don't need to verbally process what the fight was about. They've had this fight before, in varying contexts, and they'll surely have it again. But they're working on it, each of them. They know each other's faults, and they love and forgive each other anyway.

I love these moments (in the above photo) after Jimbriel toddles down the stairs. Crowley has just scolded Jimbriel to stay inside. Meanwhile, behind him, Aziraphale steps in closer with an idea. Without even looking back, Crowley steps backwards into that familiar spot where he will be perfectly paired and facing his angel once he turns towards him. Like magnets. Like a couple who is completely synchronized, as long as they are open and trusting each other.

And the familiar excited exchange of ideas begins again!

Oh yes indeed... This is definitely An Old Married Couple (I wrote a meta on it!). They know how to communicate, how to trust each other, and how to forgive. At least as well as many of us do...!

And, although we don't really NEED to see it here, I'm including a gif of Crowley's Apology Dance. It's beautiful, it's graceful... Aw, heck, we all just LIKE to see it again!

[ca-suffit]

i haven’t read the books but from the way some book stans talk about lestat like he’s some saint, i was not expecting sam in that interview to be like no actually he loves being evil and he’s really good at it and all the stuff about male rage/akasha and the devil being like wow he’s so terrible i need to recruit him actually. and i’ve seen the odd comment on twitter that’s like oh poor sam for having to put up with this lestat character assassination. like i don’t wanna call ppl out but i saw someone say “he signed up for anne rice’s iwtv, not rolin jones’s iwtv 😢” like ??? no actually he did sign up for rolin’s adaptation. and then they act like he’s so put out by the changes like a) he’s getting paid to pay his favorite character i think he’s okay. and b) even if he has reservations or questions about a change or even outright disagrees with one, he’s always full of praise for the final product and for rolin in general. like girl he is fine lol. like he said, some changes needed to be made and were for the greater good e.g. wrt improving the louis character.

I forget if he clarified in the interview or not, but that bit he says about going to hell comes right from the books

But what had I done to Claudia? And when would I have to pay for that? How long was she content to be the mystery that bound Louis and me so tightly together, the muse of our moonlit hours, the one object of devotion common to us both? Was it inevitable that she who would never have a woman's form would strike out at the demon father who condemned her to the body of a little china doll? I should have listened to Marius's warning. I should have stopped for one moment to reflect on it as I stood on the edge of that grand and intoxicating experiment: to make a vampire of "the least of these." I should have taken a deep breath. But you know, it was like playing the violin for Akasha. I wanted to do it. I wanted to see what would happen, I mean, with a beautiful little girl like that! Oh, Lestat, you deserve everything that ever happened to you. You'd better not die. You might actually go to hell. But why was it that for purely selfish reasons, I didn't listen to some of the advice given me? Why didn't I learn from any of them-Gabrielle, Armand, Marius? But then, I never have listened to anyone, really. Somehow or other, I never can.

he's not a saint (but he wants to be one for a second lol) but I personally didn't feel like he was that "evil" either. anne rice wasn't rly a good writer and fired her editor 3 books in on top of it. the series was unplanned and it's a wreck. he does awful shit but nothing I'd view makes him rly "evil," so it was a struggle for me to get on board with all that. an internal fight about how he views himself, I could understand, but idk what was rly that bad otherwise. especially cuz she was so in luv with him that consequences for anything he does just drop off as the books go? let me not write a whole thing about this lol. but ya the good and evil thing is from the books. the rice-a-ronis do mention it in posts sometimes but ever since the show has aired, everything has to be explained away now, bcuz they don't like black and brown characters or fans judging their white fav. he's either an innocent meow meow or a gothic monster, depending what mood they're in that day to dodge whatever criticism comes for them.

AMC explores a lot of stories about violent men so I've never understood this insistence like it's going to be some soft romantic series. the romance is gonna exist in the violence somehow, especially cuz they're vampires. louis slamming dreamstat's head into a rock wall while being goaded to do it bcuz dreamstat says it's the only way louis knows how to luv is sort of peak loustat for where we're at rn. I'm sure eventually they'll be more tender but it's still gonna have gritty undertones for the network it's on and who is writing it. the stans luv to make it about gendered shit, like rolin is ruining it all bcuz he's a man, but anne rice wrote violent, fucked up things too. worse than the show is prbly going to go. it's all excuses. u can just not like something without having to justify ur dislike of it to death. like damn. it's not ur taste, just stop watching??

and yes sam is a grown ass man getting prbly a good paycheck from this so loll he will be fine!

MMC: Arc 1, Chapter 2: Statuesque (Origins - Part 2)

Ladybug smiled brightly, a small chuckle escaping her lips as she leapt over another rooftop. Chat Noir wasn't too far behind her, but without his weapon, he didn't seem to be as agile as her. She wasn't sure if it was because she was simply more acrobatic than him, or if their Miraculous has some part in it, but she wouldn't complain about beating him in the race.

"C'mon Spots!" Chat Noir calls out, "Let me win just once!"

This was their fifth race today, and so far he'd just barely come close to winning on their third match, and he's been desperate to win at least one. She didn't mind indulging him though, it allowed them to learn how to move without their weapons, and got them used to traversing the city.

"Nope!" She calls back, "You gotta get some more parkour training in Noir!"

She made one final jump, landing at the bottom of the Arc de Triomphe and began climbing. Chat Noir was a bit better at climbing than her, but with her head start, she easily made it to the top before him.

"Damn." He muttered as he got to the top, "How do you do that?"

"I'm flexible." She shrugged before handing him his baton.

He gave her back her yo-yo as he asked, "So, any plans tomorrow night? I'd love for another round but I'm gonna be busy until then."

"As much as I'd love to wipe the floor with you-" He playfully rolled his eyes, "-I have school."

He blinked, repeating, "School?"

Her eyes widened, "Fuck. Uh, yeah, school."

"Hey, no need to worry Spots, that doesn't narrow down your identity at all." He tells her, "All I know now is that you're within the age range of five to twenty-something."

She chuckled, "Well I can assure you I'm not a child."

He smirked, "You sure about that? You seem to love winning."

"Oh hush," She says, shoving his shoulder, "Like you weren't begging me to let you win."

"Speaking of which!" He says, opening his baton, "I spoke to Plagg and I figured out we can sync our weapons."

She looked at his baton, "Sync our weapons?"

"Yeah, it'll help us out a lot." He explains, "We can do a bunch of things, the most important of which is make a calendar for us to be more organized."

"Really?" She asks, opening her yo-yo, "That could be useful, but how can we be sure it won't expose our identities? If we happen to know each other in real life we could accidentally uncover ourselves by our schedules matching up."

"We don't have to be specific with it," He reminds her, "Like, we know we both have school, so we can just put 'school, busy for the afternoon' or something. Plus, what're the chances we're so close we know each other's schedules so well?"

"Pretty slim." She mused, "Alright, let's set this up."

-----

"You allowed him to attend public school?" Gabriel asks, voice monotone.

"Yes sir," Nathalie answers, stepping up to his podium.

"And you did this without my knowledge or consent?" He asks, voice unwavering.

"It's his final year before université, I thought it'd be best for him to attend public school before he was shoved into the deep end." She explains, "Not to mention he's been taking self-defense classes, and while he won't be without Gerald, it'll soothe your worry to know he'll be able to handle himself."

"Nathalie," He says, "Why did you think this was a good idea? To go behind my back?"

"Because otherwise Adrien wouldn't have had a normal life for once." Nathalie states.

"Adrien has been having a so-called normal life since he began disobeying us a few years ago." Gabriel states, "He likely would've gone even without you allowing him."

"He needs to trust you Gabriel, even if you think he'll just accept it." Nathalie explains.

He's silent for a moment before a small smile crosses his face, "Thank you Nathalie."

-----

"Okay," Adrien says, mostly to himself, "First, I gotta make sure my classmates know not to treat me any differently just because of who my father is."

"Kid, you do remember this is a private school, right?" Plagg asks, the feline perched on his shoulders, "No one's gonna treat you any differently then they treat each other."

"I remember," Adrien says, "Father wouldn't allow any worse even if I am going to a public université. The problem is, I'm a model, it's not just my father who's famous."

"And what about your blonde friend, Chloé Bourgeois?" Plagg asks, "She's famous."

"I think infamous is more accurate." Adrien says.

"Well my point stands," Plagg states, "Your school, your class, is not gonna be just everyday people, they're not gonna treat you differently just cause you're an Agreste."

Adrien is quiet for a moment before sighing, "Yeah, you're right. Remember to stay hidden once we get there."

"No one will see me."

-----

"I can't believe I'm gonna be late!" Marinette exclaims, rushing down the stairs, "I live right next door! How am I gonna be late for the first day back?!"

"You were busy with Chat Noir last night," Tikki reminds her, "It's not your fault."

Tikki was currently residing within the Miraculous and speaking to Marinette through her head; how that works, Marinette honestly didn't want to think about it. This was Tikki's "Hidden Form" as the Kwami called it, it usually resides in its False Form, and apparently Plagg likes to stay in its Animal Form.

"Given we were just talking, it kind of is." She says, grabbing her phone to put by her ear as she opened the front door, "Besides, he has school today too, neither of us should've slept in today."

"If it helps," Tikki offers as Marinette hurries to the crosswalk, "Being friends with your partner is a great thing, it'll help in the long run. Even if you're late to a few classes."

"I know that," Marinette says, "It's been fun to get to know Chad-" A stupid but functional codename for her hero partner, "-but we still shouldn't have been up so late."

"Marinette!" She looks up as she crosses the street, smiling at the sight of her friend.

"Gotta go." She says before putting her phone away and rushing up to her, "Alya! Good to see you."

"You too girl," Alya says in greeting, "And lucky for you, school doesn't start for a couple minutes."

"Oh thank goodness." She muttered, "I thought I was so late."

"Nah, but we do need to hurry to make it to class before the bell rings."

"Crap!" She exclaims, the two girls rushing inside the school.

-----

Adrien was a few minutes late but thankfully it seemed no one in his class seemed to care. Well, more like they were so used to big names that being in the same class as famous model Adrien Agreste was just another day to them. He sat in the front beside a shorter person with pink dyed hair who was enthralled in whatever they were sketching. Plagg was within the ring, something Adrien didn't even know it was capable of until now, so he didn't have to worry about anyone accidentally seeing it.

"Now that role is complete," The teacher, who Adrien is fairly sure her name is Mendeleiev, "I'm going to explain the project you'll all be working on for the next month."

A collective groan filled the classroom and the teacher rolled her eyes, "Oh hush. This is a difficult lesson and unless you want to make it even worse for yourselves, you'll be glad to work with your seatmate. Thomas, since you don't have a seatmate, join the two in front of you."

"But Mme. Mendeleiev, I think I speak for everyone here when I say we don't know our seatmates." One student spoke up, which was quickly backed by several others.

"I did that on purpose," Mme. Mendeleiev said, "I wanted you all to meet someone new, who may become a new friend, as this is your final year before université. Soon enough, you'll need to work with people you don't know, even those you don't like, and this is your chance to learn to work with people who you do like. Besides, I won't be your last strict teacher, so I would hope you enjoy your time remaining with me given I'm a fairly kind teacher compared to those I had."

Everyone, besides Adrien who didn't know the teacher, visibly flinched. It was clear to him that this teacher wasn't the kindest teacher, hell she even said so herself. Adrien was a bit worried about needing to leave in the middle of class due to being a hero, but he supposed his father could be his excuse for it. Besides, so long as he wasn't abusing his privilege of his name and he got good grades, she would probably excuse an absence or tardiness here and there.

"Since it's still the first day, I ask all of you to do the usual packet that needs to be done at the beginning of the year," Mme. Mendeleiev pulled out a large stack of papers, "These go over the lessons planned for the year, as well as the reward trips I have planned that you'll need a parent or guardian's signature for. Apart from that, feel free to talk quietly amongst yourselves for the class period."

After Mme. Mendeleiev passed out the packets, his seatmate spoke, "You're Adrien Agreste right?"

Adrien blinked, "...Yes?"

They hum, holding out their hand, "Alix Kubdel, they/them but I don't mind fem terms, nice to meet you."

"You too," Adrien says, shaking their hand, "Uh, he/him for me."

They nod, "So, Gabriel Agreste actually let you come to school?"

"Well, I think his assistant did most of it," Adrien says, "My dad's... protective."

"That doesn't surprise me," They state, "Your old man is a piece of work, no offense."

"None taken," He chuckled.

Adrien couldn't help but smile; it hadn't even been five minutes since meeting Alix and Adrien could already tell they'd be friends. Not only did they seem to not care of his status, but they didn't care for his dad either. Not to say he didn't, he loves his dad, but he didn't like a lot of what he did either, and Alix didn't either.

-----

Marinette lets out a deep sigh as she puts her head in her hands, devastated at the knowledge that she had to deal with Chloé in her class for the fourth year in a row. Not only that, but she didn't know anyone in this class outside of Chloé and Sabrina. She was thankful she had Mme. Bustier though, she's one of the kindest teachers in the school so at the very least she knew the class wouldn't be too bad.

One of those issues could be remedied if she befriended one of her new classmates, maybe even her seatmate. The person beside her looked kind enough, texting someone with a small smile on their face. Marinette wondered idly what to say to start a conversation, when they spoke up.

"I would appreciate it if you stopped staring at me."

Marinette flushed, "S-Sorry! I got lost in thought."

They gave a small hum but otherwise didn't react to Marinette and she sighed, "I was almost late to school even though I live right next door, then I realized I have to deal with the worst person in the world again and... I've been having a bad day."

They looked up and Marinette went to apologize for rambling only for them to cut her off, "Kim, my boyfriend, is in a similar boat as you today."

Marinette stared at them and they continued, "I'm sorry your day hasn't been going well. Your day will get better eventually."

Marinette gave them a small smile, "Thanks."

"You said you lived next door? Do you happen to work in the bakery?" They ask, "Apologies for the question, I just realized you look very familiar."

"My parents own it." She confirmed, "I work there from time to time when I'm not busy with school or my designs."

"Designs? What do you do?" They question, curiously.

"Fashion," She answers, "I'm creator and owner of MDCDesigns."

"Max Kanté, it/its." Max greets, holding out a hand, "I believe we're going to be friends."

Marinette smiled, taking its hand, "I think so too. My name's Marinette, she/her."

-----

As lunch continued, Adrien smiled brightly, chatting with Alix as they spoke about their friends Kim and Max. Adrien idly wondered if he could meet them and maybe befriend them as well but his thought was cut off when the cafeteria doors slammed open and he whirled around to see a... statue?

"Adrien!" The statue called out, the voice eerily familiar.

"Uh, you know them?" Alix stage whispers to him.

"That's...." Adrien blinked, something about the person seemed so familiar yet so different. Wasn't this the Quantum Masking? Adrien didn't know it'd apply to the Akuma victims... this just got so much harder.

-----

Marinette ducked into a classroom, heart racing. When she thought about her first real battle, she never expected it'd be in school, let alone after Adrien Agreste of all people. How did he anger them in the first place anyway?

"Tikki, transformez-moi!"

As the magic washed over her, she rushed towards the window and leapt out, using her yo-yo to swing herself to the cafeteria window. She peered inside, eyes scanning the room. It seemed no one dared move once the Akuma barged in, and the villain hadn't moved much since she left, barely a few inches as their marble eyes scanned the room.

The only thing that stuck out about them besides them being a, y'know, marble statue, was the cane in one hand, "Lucky Charm."

Ladybug blinked at the booklet filled with several mobility related medical problems. She didn't have time to read through all of these! She flipped open the booklet and let her eyes scan over as much as she could, barely catching a glimpse of one before a voice that sounded way too similar to Tikki told her to stop. She listened, looking at the page on people who suffered from chronic fatigue. She had no way to know for sure, but if the Akuma did have chronic fatigue, the abilities they gained from an Akuma could only do so much to nullify it.

Her Miraculous beeped, warning her of her new time limit and she swore under her breath before leaping down into the cafeteria, landing a few meters away. Her arrival jumpstarted the students as they all began shouting, all now attempting to escape despite the villain blocking the only exit.

A blue mask appeared over the Akuma's face, "Ladybug holder," They addressed her, "Hand over your jewels, I have no reason to fight you."

"And what of these innocent kids?" Ladybug questions, grabbing her yo-yo, "What would you have done to them if I hadn't dropped in?"

The Akuma smiled, the gold glinting off their skin, "Why don't you move so you can find out."

"Hey, uh, ladybug girl?" She barely glances back at Adrien Agreste, who seemed surprised and relieved at her presence, "You can't fight a supervillain alone."

A thought crossed her mind but her heart clenched at the thought, "I... will they listen to you?"

"U-Uh, maybe?" Adrien answers.

"They'll listen to me." A shorter person besides Adrien says.

"Charge her." Ladybug states, "She'll be overwhelmed and exhausted, I'll make sure no one is hurt."

With only a slight hesitation, they got onto the table and shouted, "GET THAT STATUE!"

Ladybug charged, yo-yo grabbing onto their arm and slid under their legs as they tried to grab her. Ladybug pulled on the yo-yo, causing the Akuma to lose their balance just in time for several people to begin hitting and kicking them. Ladybug smiled, glad they trusted her to protect them but just as quickly, her smile vanished as nearly everyone who attacked the Akuma turned to stone.

"Nice try." The Akuma says, turning to Ladybug, "Perhaps you shouldn't trust in amateurs kids."

"What about two?!"

-----

Chat Noir kicked the Akuma in the back, sending them flying forward, thankfully Ladybug moved out of the way in time. He hurried to her side, looking at the booklet attached to her hip.

"Chronic illnesses?" Chat Noir says, "The cane's not for show?"

"If my power's to be trusted, it isn't." Ladybug answers, both heroes readying themselves as the Akuma recovered. Ladybug's earrings beeped in warning of her rapidly approaching time limit.

"Go recharge, I'll deal with the statue for now." Chat Noir says, moving in front of his partner.

"We do this together." She states, "Follow my lead."

"You're still outplayed kids!" The Akuma snaps, grabbing one of the students turned statues and grabbing his arm, "One more step and I snap his arm off."

The two heroes froze, no, not just them, no one in the cafeteria dared to breathe at the threat.

"You wouldn't." Ladybug hisses.

"I'm here to get what I came for, revenge and your Miraculous."

"Revenge?" Chat Noir repeats, "What could a teenager have done to you do warrant this kind of revenge?"

"Gabriel Agreste fired me simply because I sought best for his son when he refused to do so, I had to act and yet he fired me anyway!" The Akuma snaps, "I'm here to take Adrien and get him far away from the man who refuses to be a father!"

The Quantum Masking protecting the Akuma's identity shatters instantly as the dots in Chat Noir's brain connected. It seemed the magic that protected the Akuma's were much weaker than Miraculous holders.

"Nathalie Sancoeur?" Chat Noir questions, eyes softening.

"I am Statuesque now." She corrects, "Now, hand over your Miraculous or else."

Another beep from Ladybug's Miraculous made his heart race.

"Okay." His head snapped to Ladybug, "Fine. Let the kid go, and we'll hand over our Miraculous."

"You think I'm stupid?" Statuesque asks, "Hand them over first."

Ladybug tossed the booklet to her, "Look, I already summoned my power, my timer's in effect."

Statuesque pauses for a moment before shoving the kid to the side and walking up to Ladybug, at which point her yo-yo shot forward, wrapping around her arm and yanking forward. The cane fell free and Chat Noir moved fast, grabbing the cane before snapping it over his knee.

As the magic faded from both Nathalie and the students, Ladybug's earrings beeped once again, "Times almost up, I need to go."

"Stay safe Spots." Chat Noir says, holding up his fist.

"Pound it." She says, fist bumping him.

"That should be our victory thing!" He calls out and she rushes through the cafeteria doors.

"Wh-What happened?" Nathalie asks, a hand clutched to her head as she looks around.

"You were a victim of a supervillain," Chat Noir informs her, "Would you like a lift back?"

She shakes her head, "No, thank you."

As she begins walking away, a person wearing an orange flannel rushes up to him, "What was that?!" They exclaim, "Who are you? Why'd you let her walk? What's going on?!"

"That was an Akuma, my name's Chat Noir, my partner that was with me was Ladybug." Chat Noir answers, "She walked because she wasn't in control of herself, someone forced her to act that way, and what's going on is that Paris has two new protectors. I should be going, stay safe."

-----

Monarque growled, gripping the tablet as the live stream ended, "Dammit! They're better than I thought..."

-----

The following day, Marinette simply wanted to crawl in a hole and die. Alya, her best friend in the whole world, started a blog in honor of the heroes. She'd have to keep an eye on her now, but that wasn't the worst part, the worst part is people haven't stopped talking about Ladybug and Chat Noir since Alya's stream ended and Marinette honestly didn't want to hear another word about them.

"That was so cool!" Alya says, "Gah, I hope I can interview them one day."

"Didn't Chat Noir answer a bunch of your questions though?" Aurore asks, Mirielle nodding along.

"Yeah but that was the basic stuff, I wanna know everything!"

"Just be careful," Mireille reminds her, "This is dangerous stuff."

"Agreed." Marinette says, "Please don't run face first into any supervillain."

"I make no promises." She says, making the other three sigh.

Fall of Order 1

[First] [Previous] [Next]

Fall of Order 1

Order 66

Marinette twitched as her master spoke with the Mandalorians in front of them. The butterfly symbol of Clan Agreste glared down at them.

“Do you think the General’s going to be able to come up with a plan if those Mando’s keep glaring at him?” Whispered Commander Frost, leaning close to Marinette.

“I hope so,” responded the Padawan, “Jedi and Mandalorians don’t have the best history with each other.”

“You can say that again.” Grumbled Sneak, frowning behind his helmet.

“Count Agreste,” Said Master Fu, sighing, “I will inform you as soon as I’ve finished surveying the field, there is no need to stand over me and watch.”

Gabriel only glared and folded his arms. Marinette heard Frost’s comm start beeping, which stopped when the Clone answered it.

“Commander Frost,” Came the Voice of Chancellor Palpatine, “Execute Order 66.”

Marinette felt the force go cold, before a stabbing pain reached her. Marinette was so overcome by it; she didn’t notice the Clones aiming at her and her Master.

“Marinette!” Yelled Fu, his lightsaber springing to life as he deflected the first few shots.

Marinette shook her head and regained her senses, her blue blade joining her master’s green. Shots soared over their shoulders as the Mandalorians opened fire on the Clones. A shot suddenly hit her master in the shoulder, another hitting him in the middle of his chest and a final one hit his head, sending the Jedi master to the floor, dead.

Marinette saw red and summoned her master’s lightsaber and launched herself at the remaining Clones. Commander Frost’s head fell from his shoulders and Sneak’s arm hit the floor as the two blades pierced his chest. Marinette looked around; the remains of the clones lied scattered across the room. Marinette turned to her master’s corpse and fell to her knees.

“Traitorous lab experiments.” Snarled one of the Mandalorians, while the countess crossed the room and grabbed Marinette’s arm before hauling her to her feet.

“You can’t stay here,” Said Emilie, as Marinette struggled, “You yourself said that you only brought a small group with you.”

Marinette stopped struggling, allowing Emilie to pull her out of the room and towards a speeder. Soon, the Mandalorians and the Padawan were leaving the area as fast as they could.

“Clan Tsurugi should be waiting at the rendezvous,” Said Gabriel, frowning at a data pad, “I remember them saying that they had something called the ‘Padawan Pack’ with them.”

Marinette vaguely registered what he said, Nino and Alya were part of the Pack, Luka and Zoe were out scouting with a couple clones. The speeder came to a stop, Marinette was guided out of the speeder. A couple Mandalorians glanced at her, before pointing Emilie in the direction of a tent. Alya tackled Marinette as soon as she saw her, Nino was nursing a blaster wound on his arm and Luka and Zoe’s remains were under a sheet in the back of the tent.

“They just started shooting at us.” Whispered Alya, tightly gripping Marinette, “They killed Luka and Zoe when they came back from patrol. I don’t understand, they were our allies.”

Marinette didn’t say anything as three Mandalorian teens listened in on the conversation.

“I heard the Chancellor tell them to execute order 66.” Said Marinette, breaking her silence.

“What’s that?” Asked Nino, summoning his lightsabre to him.

“I don’t know,” Answered Marinette, “but the Clones know, we can try with them.”

“Provided they don’t try and shoot us first.” Mused Alya, “We’d need to capture a scout, lure it out and probe it’s mind.”

Marinette folded her arms, before glancing around, “Do you know where they are?”

“No.” Said Nino, “Even if we did, we have no way of containing them.”

“You could just ask.” Said a voice, making Marinette spin around and ignite her lightsaber.

The Mandalorian stared at Marinette through his helmet. There were two girls flanking him, before Marinette extinguished her lightsaber.

“Okay, where can we find them?” Asked Marinette, placing her hands on her hips.

“They’re camped out in a valley a couple of klicks from here.” Said the Mandalorian, “But, they have some force user with them.”

Marinette frowned, before she made to leave the tent. The Mandalorian stopped her, “It’s not safe.”

Marinette glared at him, before flinging her arms out and using the force to throw him and his friends back. One of the Mandalorian girls helmet came off. Kagami glared at the Jedi, before aiming one of her blasters at her back and firing.

Marinette deflected the shot back at them, with Nino intercepting it and sending it to the ground. Alya took off after Marinette, while Nino set about helping the Mandalorians to their feet.

“What was that?” Asked the boy, taking his helmet off.

“When a Padawan loses their master, they’re prone to fits of irrational behaviour,” Explained Nino, “In Marinette’s case, a desire for revenge.”

The Mandalorian’s eyes narrowed, “What does that mean?”

“It means Marinette need time to calm down.” Responded Nino, “Marinette’s been training longer than any of us, she’ll be able to handle herself.”

FOO

Marinette ducked behind a tree, immediately spotting the clones, as well as the ‘force user’ the Mandalorians had spotted. She’d managed to give Alya the slip before coming here. Marinette absently reached for her master’s lightsaber, only for her hand to grab empty air. She quickly looked around her, hoping to spot the weapon, only to find nothing.

Marinette bit back a groan, before the force gave her a warning to duck. A red lightsaber sailed over her, narrowly missing her head. The blade returned to the force user’s hand. A black mask covering her face.

“Hey.” Waved Marinette, silently cursing herself for not noticing them approach.

The force user didn’t respond, they only swung the blade at Marinette again. Marinette ducked and ignited her saber, blocking the blow and striking back at them. Marinette quickly noticed another lightsaber on the force user’s belt. Steeling herself, Marinette summoned the lightsaber, before using the force to knock down all the trees surrounding them.

The force user was knocked back and Marinette grabbed the force user’s lightsaber and fled into the night.

The Inquisitor cursed, she’d hoped to get the drop on Dupain-Cheng, not have her legs crushed. The Twelfth Sister lifted the tree from her legs, before dragging herself back to the camp, livid that she didn’t think to attach a tracking device to the lightsaber or Jedi.

FOO

Alya nervously sat in a tent full of Mandalorians.

“So…” Alya glanced to the Mandalorian boy, “what are we going to do? Are we just gonna wait for Marinette to come back or…”

Kagami glared at the Jedi, Adrien giving her a warning look to prevent her from lashing out, “I suppose.”

Nino suddenly rocked forwards, before a lump impacted the side of the tent.

“That was quick.” Remarked Adrien, before Marinette wriggled under side of the tent.

“You okay, M?” Asked Alya, before noticing the two extra lightsabers, “Where’d you get those?”

“A force user with the Clones.” Responded Marinette, looking at the Mandalorians.

“Are they dead?” Asked Gabriel, glaring at the girl.

“No, but their legs were crushed,” Replied Marinette, “you may want to plant some more trees to replace the ones I knocked down.”

Marinette was fiddling with the Lightsaber with the strange hand guard, when it suddenly snapped into a full circle. Marinette frowned, before igniting the lightsaber, the red blades illuminating her face. Completely oblivious to the shocked looks around her, she pressed another button and made the blades spin around the circle surrounding the hilt.

Marinette shut the lightsaber off and tossed it to the side.

“Okay, I’ll say it,” Said Adrien, staring at Marinette with wide eyes, “that was cool.”

FOO

Marinette stared down at the braid in her hand, before dropping it in a box next to the lightsabers. The Mandalorians had decided to keep Marinette, Alya and Nino with them, if only to get the drop on the Empire. The three Mandalorian teens that’d spoken to them had introduced themselves to them. The blond boy with green eyes was Adrien, Marinette didn’t like how her heart fluttered slightly, the girl with black hair and amber eyes was Kagami, who introduced herself as Adrien’s betrothed, and the last one, after removing her helmet, had blonde hair and blue eyes and had given her name as Chloe. Marinette found a resemblance to Zoe in her features.

“So,” Said Adrien, making Marinette look at him, “We’re going to take the long way home, to try and lose any followers.”

Marinette nodded, before snapping the lid of the box shut and handing it to Adrien.

“Since your father will probably want them.”

Adrien nodded and put the box behind him, “I’m sorry about Kagami.”

“Are you speaking as her friend or her husband?”

Adrien choked on his own breath, “As her friend, I, I don’t actually see her as anything else, really.”

“Then why didn’t you correct her, or are you afraid of her reaction?” Marinette quirked an eyebrow.

“I don’t want to hurt her.” Justified Adrien, “Besides, neither of us have a say in the matter.”

“Hmm.”

Marinette picked up a small bag, “I’m surprised your parents want to keep Jetii near him, even if it’s just for the element of surprise.”

“I don’t understand it either,” Confessed Adrien, “but where’d you go if he hadn’t?”

“Probably to Coruscant and getting myself killed in the process.”

Adrien and Marinette stood in an awkward silence, before Adrien coughed and cleared his throat, “W-we should probably go to the others, um, you know, if we’re done here.”

Marinette nodded and followed after him, casting a last look at the comm-link she was leaving behind.

Outside the tent, Kagami glared at the fabric, unsure if she should be angry at Adrien or the Jetii. Shoving her helmet on, Kagami went to join the others.

FOO

Nathalie frowned, before ducking out of the way of a Clone patrol. She’d managed to escape the Jedi Temple thanks to a collapsing walkway, which allowed her and a few others to escape. Nathalie looked over at Caline, the Jedi Knight had already taken it upon herself to modify all their looks, so they wouldn’t be recognisable. Alix and Lila had quietly agreed to put a pause on their ‘rivalry’ until they were somewhere safe.

“We’ll need to be careful,” Muttered D’Argencourt, “The Clones don’t appear to be actively looking for us.”

The three Jedi and two apprentices quickly and quietly made their way to a transport and smuggled themselves on.

“Remember, we’re heading to Mandalore.” Murmured Nathalie, looking at the other Jedi, “May the Force be with you.”

[ofhxrror]

HIGHKEY missing all of my old oc’s that are currently taking space in the back of my mind and I keep thinking about them in their fictional little universes. I wanna ramble for a bit so below the cut are where I imagine them ending up at the end of their lives. 

Ophelia Richards (hellstate--rp/hellhqs) - the apple of my eye and the love of my life ( my favorite child let me honest ), i wonder about her the most in her fictional little bubble. she was the most changed and better off them all so like i wonder how she would be fairing in the zombie outbreak of cheyanne. would the zombie’s have died off by now and would she have set up a house with a puppers ( maybe with a certain somebody??? ) or would the zombies be still around and would still be the redheaded rolling stone. i think the zombies would be dying off and she would have a little cabin, a small shop too where she would sell blankets and canned goods; also like two doggo’s that she would maim someone if they touched. maybe a noah ashbury in her life idk about that though- but like she would just be okay. maybe she found her little sister again and they live together. just OPHELIA HAPPY- ( i also hardcore crackship her with my other kiddo juliet kemp don’t fucking at me okay they make sense...kinda ) 

Juliet Kemp (hellstate--rp/hellhqs) - my broken bird ohhh my heart legit aches every time i think about her- like holy mother of GOD i ruined that character didn’t i??? she was such a fucking shit show of a human, like rick grimes level’s of bullshit happened to her. she’s from the same universe as ophelia so going off of the “zombies are dying off” ( i don’t like to think that zombies are supernatural creatures and hellhq lore was pretty clear it was some type of plague so...bodies...rot after awhile and yeah i could babble on about zombies rotting but imma stop because i know some of you guys are normal folks who don’t like to hear about that stuff. ) i imagine her as semi-okay, not AS happy or well adjusted as O but alive and sometimes..maybe even smiling. i can see her living in a big house with room for any kids she finds because that’s her weakness, she loves all the little kiddos and just wants them to be okay. honestly juliet is now your adoptive mom if you don’t have one at the end of the world. she would build gardens for food and paints the whole house to be happy for the kids. just peace is all i want for her and her head. but like lemme be honest she’s your wine mom because what she’s gone through ohhhh boi yeah she’s PTSD for life. ( but like also hi yes my crackship make sense here because them ophelia and her can like have all the outbreak orphan’s together and love each other???? no...yes??? )

 Gabrielle Jackson (hellstate--rp/hellhqs) - ANGEL BABYYYY!!!! she wasn’t my favorite to play because she was so nice??? like i cannot be that nice all the darn time to people (also christianity turns out its a goddamn trigger for me.) but like after I had her get stabbed and lose all faith??? yeah she got easier to play for me, plus anytime I had her with her joker it was funny because oh boi she’s angry 100% of the time. but like in her future honestly she wouldn’t have one, gabby is super one of the muses I can see not making it in the new worlds. she’s clung to tightly to the ideals of a forgotten world so honestly I can see her kinda just dying? like I’m sorry not sorry- she’s so the type to get her ass stabbed trying to help someone. that or might end up on some type of mushroom hippie 60′s aesthetic to cope with her life just going to shit, smoking pot on a cute little farm far away from town and selling handmade blankets because that’s nice right? ALL I KNOW HER AND GOD NO LONGER SPEAK. 

Penny Scott ( hellvt ) - speaking of not talking to god meet my angel child penny! ironically an actual angel, like sent from god wings and all, but hates the motherfucker with all of her being for kinda being a deadbeat father i guess. she’s what you would call a “useless lesbian” and honestly that trait I feel like she would honestly get better with as she spends more time on earth. I can see her ending up with a cute girl in a nice little cottage somewhere, but honestly she might pull a stupid and die protecting someone she loves? idk she has tragic written all over her because she sees the best in the world but the world is a shithole. 

Nathlia Scott ( butterflieshq ) - MY ROLEPLAY AND MY KIDDO! i had to close it because health reasons so we never got to hear nathlia’s full backstory i had planned out and honestly i’m going to leave it up to ??? incase i get healthier and am able open butterflies back up one day but a possible future for the kiddo? she’s a missing person who is persumed dead her future is the up there with my bleak kids ( it goes kenzi, nathlia, and ginger ). but she either ends up dead, alive but in a mental hospital for a good couple years, or [ ERROR TEXT NOT FOUND ]....i thought i fixed that glitch oh well. 

Kenzi Carlson ( ??? ) - my sweet sweet punk child who I loved with all of my heart and still cry over to this day, she was an early-ish muse of mine i believe from a scream inspired roleplay. she doesn’t have a future i can tell you that right now because she was canon fodder durning the roleplay when the admin asked if there was anyone who was willing to let their characters die and I was like sure! ( I now know I will never do that again I fucking hate character death scenes ). she ended up being killed in the same way her mother died and I was like ohhhh boy my sweet baby not even eighteen. so she’s stuck with me for some reason, i call her my ghost. 

Ginger Adams ( ??? ) - My Ginger Fitzgerald inspired muse for an unknown horrror roleplay that i was apart of that never really got off the ground but it was nice while it lasted,  she’s honestly my mess of a kiddo who i love so much but honestly once again i do not make happy people so on this girl is honestly a wreck. unlike ginger fitz from the movie, this ginger acidentally killed her sister in a fight and is on the run after her mother told her she would clean it all up ( which oof to that mom ). i don’t see her having a happy life after that- like honestly nothing good happening for her due to a. the ptsd of killing her sister/becoming a werewolf and b. the fact she is a werewolf. so honestly lets just mark her down as fucked up and move on.

WIP ASK GAME - 3rd answer

This is the final answer to @andromedaexists from the list HERE

👀 - A piece of lore you’ve been waiting for an excuse to share

Okay, because this is so far off before this all gets revealed (at least unless my muses decide to change it for me), I have wanted to share this forever.  Yael won’t know it for like….eee gads…I dunno.  Phaedra knows it, but was sworn to secrecy by the Angel Michael, who by the way is NOT an Arch Angel.  No, he is not that lowly.  He too is a Seraph.  

The father of both Phaedra and Yael is…Azrael.  That name seem a bit familiar?  If you’ve been reading along it should.  There is one other person who is tied to that Seraph.  A certain Horseman of Famine.  *grins*  Yes, Yael is Deacon’s SISTER!  (makes “eeeeeee”)   Not only is she Deacon’s sister, but she is his sister in the same way that Abriella and Cruz are brother and sister, so they are technically “twins” because of how divine bloodlines work.   And yes, this does mean that Phaedra is also his sister.  However, the mother’s bloodline in that case is completely different, so she is a true  half-sister.

It is not a coincidence that they are both virgins either.  My poor babies, how they are going to go through it when this all comes out. But there were prophecies involved. Phaedra walked in on a conversation where it was revealed about Azrael and almost lost her life over it, the secret of their father being that big.  Why, well that is something that I’m going to hold back for now.  SPOILERS, DARLING!

It is her paternity that also caused the blowback on Gabriel to be more extreme than would be normally.  Not that his actions ever would have been excused, but Azrael took supreme exception to what was done to his daughter and demanded recompense for it.  Raguel, the angel of Righteous Vengeance, was inadvertently called because of a father’s outrage and signed on for it upon hearing about it.  So Michael was now faced with two Seraph angels who were ready to take out a Throne, whether the action was sanctioned by Div or not.  The three went to Div, and it was more than sanctioned.  

It was during this whole period that Phaedra discovered who their father was, it had always been kept secret.  She and Yael always believed it was due to their father being disgraced or Fallen after their birth.  The truth had more to do with their being related to a Horseman and the ramifications of that.  So, when this is revealed, Deacon too will be unaware that he has two sisters.  

Deacon has always been the quieter of the Horseman and the one that felt like he never fit in.  The other three were always a tighter grouping, along with Arch, and they tried to make him feel included; but he always felt a half-step off with them.  He’s always felt that way and hard to connect with people.  The more he is around Yael, the more they will connect and that is going to be his first clue there is “something” with her.  Finding his sisters, this is gonna be HUGE!  But he may kinda be pissed at dad for hiding them.

Ⅶ✎❀✑◑

munday asks. // @8elphgor currently accepting.

Ⅶ If you have multiple blogs and/or muses, which one is your favorite? Why?

i only have this blog and lucifer ( @applctini ) and he's a sideblog. i haven't done much since making him in the summer. i adore the theme i've made for him and he's much more structured than my main blog lmao - but that's being fixed. but i've have my multi since?? 2020? moved around some times, but yeah i am attached to this blog. lucifer's purely on his own blog because i have my own lucifer and tags would become confusing tbh.

✎ When choosing a name for your muse, did you pick something special or meaningful in some way?

when it comes to my korean muses, yes i do go through logs of names and pick out their names typically. most of my ocs are biblical or from some sort of text, so they're already given names, just my designs. but even minhyuk, they're my otome mc so i purposefully gave them the initials so in english writing their initials spell MC.

❀ What is a muse you want to play but haven’t? Why haven’t you played them yet?

idk if it really counts but?? lucifer i would like to interact with more than just my alastor on discord but i do get nervous with big fandoms tbh and when i finally get the courage, most of it's died out lmao. like yes i've played him, but not really in the public setting of tumblr ( at least seriously ).

another one is, ik he's on my blog, chu wanning - unfortunately i haven't found many, if any, rp blogs for the erha universe. i've seen beautiful artwork done by amazing artists here, but blogs? no, not really. it was my first danmei i actually fell in love with so hard, more than the popular titles of like mdzs that got live actions and multiple remakes between the comic and show before china decided to add more censorship and put a halt to any danmei live actions. cwn is just such a muse i call to so much with his behavior and the way he loves and i adore the story of erha, i would love for someone - or multiple !! people to dive in that universe with me.

✑ Do you prefer writing OCs or canon characters? Why?

i've grown very attached to my ocs. like i said i've had this multi since 2020, maybe 2019. i used to adore writing canon charas, but i think the older i got i kind of fell out of it. i had much drama in the fandoms i've been part of - both included in the drama and not. i am okay with writing canon charas, but i also know a lot of canon characters i pick have much to be desired in their backstory and such so i get that opportunity to make them very headcanon based lmao.

i think the most set canon character i have that doesn't have a lot of my additions to is elliot - mostly because he died so young and we got about??? 30 chapters with him compared to most of the other characters who were there from 1-104. in his modern verse is where i have a little more fun with him, but beyond that, i do not touch his character very often than the information we've been given him (which i am grateful towards mochijun for making many side stories about him growing up since he obviously didn't get to be an adult)

◑ What is a side to your muse you want to show off, but haven’t had the chance to yet?

i'll answer this for raphael since he's my usual brainrot muse. but i just want him to get angry. he's only ever been so angry once and that was when he went toe to toe with gabriel. usually he's so docile, so sweet and warm, but lord it is so refreshing to write him mad. to write him so pissed off he doesn't care about the aftermath and doesn't care if he's pressuring others under his emotions. if they can feel an ounce of what he feels daily, perhaps someone could understand why he chooses his usual demeanor over how much he actually feels and hurts.

[radicalrascals]

@etxrnaleclipse for the miscellaneous angst starters meme

get the hell away from me. (Carlos to any muse you feel fits)

Gabriel's heart pounded in his chest as he crept down the cold, damp steps of the basement. The dim light cast long, ominous shadows on the cracked walls, and the smell of decay assaulted his nostrils. The air was thick and oppressive, the faint drip of water echoing in the stillness. He paused at the bottom, ears straining for any sound that might betray the presence of another. Satisfied that he was alone, he moved swiftly towards the far corner where the gang's "trophy" was kept; a bound and gagged police officer.

As Gabriel's shadow loomed over the other, the once-thief noticed the bloodshot eyes, rimmed with dark circles and glistening with what he could only guess was fear. His uniform was torn and dirty, his face bruised and smeared with dried blood. His wrists were raw and bloody from the tight bindings. Gabriel crouched down, trying to appear as non-threatening as possible, and removed the gag - only to be met with a natural response of terror and defiance.

"Shh, I'm here to help," Gabriel whispered urgently, his voice smooth and calm. "I'm a friend, okay?" He hesitated. Frowning. "Well, I wouldn't go that far. But I'm definitely the closest thing you have to a friend right now." He flashed a charming, reassuring smile, hoping to instil some semblance of trust. "I need you to stay quiet so we don't attract attention."

Oh, he couldn't blame the cop if he didn't buy it. The situation was dire, and trust was a scarce commodity. Glancing over his shoulder, Gabriel's paranoia flared. Every creak and groan of this sorry building made his nerves jangle. He didn't care if his assignment went pear shaped if it meant he could save a life. While at the same time he needed to prove to Steven, that he could be a reliable asset in fighting crime.

With deft, nimble fingers, Gabriel picked the lock on the chain binding Carlos. The click of the lock releasing was a small victory, but time was still their enemy. To reassure Carlos, Gabriel pulled up his pant leg to reveal an ankle monitor. "Look, I know this might not make you feel better, but I'm working for the good guys now," he tried to explain. "If you still have doubts after we get out of here, call Detective Steven Carlisle at the LAPD. Tell him a handsome hero with brown hair, brown eyes, and a fabulous moustache saved you."

He flashed a charming smile which vanished quickly. "Right now," Gabriel continued, his tone gentle but firm, "the most important thing is to get you out of here." He pulled the officer back to his feet, his weight almost having a fragile quality to it and Gabriel's heart ached for the suffering he must have endured.

The sound of footsteps above snapped him back to the present. With a suave but urgent grace, Gabriel took Carlos's arm, his movements confident and fluid despite the tension. "Stay close and move quietly," he whispered, flashing another reassuring smile. "We'll be out of here in no time."

[2k7 - listened to Butterfly Kisses while writing this, made all the feels hit harder.]

Casey had been apprehensive when he got that call, the one from Gabrielle. He knew he should ignore her, have hung up immediately. But she sounded distressed, and Casey, with his dumb big heart, just couldn't bring himself to leave someone when they needed help - regardless of what she did to him. So, his reservations tucked away, Casey told Raph what he was doing, and headed out.

-

He returned a few hours later, looking utterly shell shocked. He glanced around, didn't see Summer. Casey assumed she had headed out for the night, in a way, he was glad. Casey grabbed Raph's wrist, dragged him to their room, still processing what he learned. Sure they were alone, he sat down with them, and looked at Raph with wide eyes,

"Gabrielle is Summer's mother," He stated, "That's what she wanted t' tell me, she had left Summer at our doorstep, said that it wouldn't 'ave been safe for her t' stay with Gabs 'cause of who the donor is."

Well, the word Gabs used was 'dad', but Casey and Raph are Summer's dads, and he was adamant about making that distinction,

"It's Hun..." He tells Raph, that flicker of anger within him igniting, "Yeah, that fuckin' Hun."

He breathes out a sigh, shakes his head. He's not angry at Summer, of course not. And he's not mad at Gabs, because, well, in his opinion, she did the right thing that night. He's mad because for once, he was right about something, and he wished he wasn't. After a moment of silence, letting it all sit, unaware that someone had been eavesdropping until that point, Casey continues,

"This aint gonna change a thing," He reassures, "Raph, far as I'm concerned, an Angel heard our wish that night, an' granted it, 'cause they knew our lil' girl was missin' an' she needed t' be brought 'ome t' us," It's what he believed, "She's our lil' girl, no matter what."

He had dreamed about it for so long, being a dad. Gabs knew it, Raph knew it, fate brought Summer to him, and that's all Casey concerned himself with,

"We'll 'ave t' tell her, I think, I dunno - just don't sit right keepin' it from her," Casey decides, "Just, aint got a clue on how we're gonna d' it."

| Muse Interaction

Despite the jealous kind of guy Raphael is and can be he wasn’t really phased in that sense when Casey mentioned getting a call from their ex girlfriend and near fiancé, had they said yes. (A part of Raph liked to think they wouldn’t have ended up married no matter what even if that seemed a little wrong to think.) He was more curious in a morbid sense, after all this time why did she want to talk to Casey? Was this some big dramatic ‘I shouldn’t have let you go’ regret speech? Hmm okay he takes it back maybe some jealously was lingering inn his thoughts as he pictured the two of them sat in a booth, across the table this women crying her heart out and pleading to Casey. Finally seeing him as the one that gone away and such, he needs to stop listening in on Sensei’s shows was the next thought. Don’t get him wrong he trusts Casey. Even if that was indeed what this meeting was all about. Raphael know’s better especially with all they have been through. Casey’s heart was with him and the life they had. Didn’t mean he wasn’t still sitting around feeling restless and thinking all to much about it, maybe even texting Don just a little about it all well assuring them he wasn’t being jealous or anything. Pretty sure anyone would see that as untrue. Gruffing out in annoyance he knows he’s just driving himself nuts here letting his mind dwell on everything letting his head fall to the back of the couch. Where he stared at the celling for a moment, lifting his arm up to wave out at Summer wen she mentioned she was heading out to hang out with her cousin. Part of him thought about tagging along simply to go to the lair. See Mikey maybe or chat with Splinter, their advice was always good to take, surprisingly the relationship kind was some of the best as well. Be better than sitting around left to his thoughts. It was dumb if anything was fishy Casey wouldn’t have told him in the first place but that little fact didn’t seem to offer the most comfort to Raphael. What if she was going to hurt Casey again? Casey never got over that before, like Raph’s one to say or think anything when it comes to people hurting Casey.

Before Raph can move off the couch and head off to the lair himself though he hears the door open again with far more urgency this time around. Lifting his head back up and twisting to look he finds Casey looking well like he saw a ghost or something? He seemed so panicked a little freaked out from how rapidly his eyes were looking around right now Raphael had to wonder what or who he was looking for. Raph arch his brow and moved up from the couch.

"Ya al'ight there?" The answer seemed pretty obvious "Jeez ya meet up, shake you up 'hat bad or somethin' ?" Raphael asks trying to prompt Casey into talking just now. Without a word of warning giving Raphael find himself being dragged by the wrist to their bedroom. And under normal circumstances, Raph would make a joke about this. But with how casey was being? It just didn't seem to be the time or place to joke with them about them suddenly dragging him off into the bedroom first chance they had, the temptation was strong though. The grip on his wrist though was all he needed to knkw this was serious. There was something about the hold that had him that made Raph almost dread what this was about.

When the door was shut behind them, Casey's vice grip was taken away. As Raph contuied following thier lead even sitting beside them on the end of the bed. Casey finally looked at Raph with blue eyes blown wide.

"Gabrielle is Summer's mother,"

"Uh?" Some more lead up would have been nice here but Raph guesses he can't really blame Casey for just blurting things out as they did.

"That's what she wanted t' tell me, she had left Summer at our doorstep, said that it wouldn't 'ave been safe for her t' stay with Gabs 'cause of who the donor is."

Well, now Raph feels stupid for some of his eailer thoughts as he sort of eases into his spot as arms naturally take a crossed postion in front of his plastron. Sort of looking at nothing as he faces away. Chewing over that bit he should have waited a second more because he couldn't understand why thar had Casey freaking out? Did she want to see Summer or something? Just cause she brithed thier daughter didn't mean she could take Summer from them. Raphael had ask April about that before, so it could be due to something like that at least? The donor?

"Okay so who the donor 'hen?" Looking over towards Casey carefully wording his question. That’s gotta be the troubling bit here right?

"It's Hun..."

He can hear the anger in Casey’s voice the second he says the name, but even thought there was literally no other Hun that would cause that drop in Casey’s voice, he still snaps his eyes wide open and near about shouts. “As in Purple Dragon dick head Hun?”

"Yeah, that fuckin' Hun."

Raph swears he hears something just now past their door, didn’t seem right the two of them were in here after all. The turtle opting to ignore that for now it wasn’t loud enough to really be anything could just be hearing thing after what Casey just told him. He don’t blame this women for having sex with Hun or anything like that because well she seemed to figure out he was bad news in the end and made sure to take the baby somewhere they would be safe. Caseys heaven shaky breath brings his attention back on to Casey. Damn it. The women who broke his heart. And the guy who killed his father, what the fuck was bouncing around in their empty skull right now? Two major sources of pain and more for Casey also being tied into the reason Casey had what he always wanted? Reaching over Raphael set a hand to their back and slightly shakes them.

“Case?”

"This aint gonna change a thing,"

Course it wouldn’t, Raphael didn’t need the reassurance after all they both long ago knew that little girl was their kid, Raph had even told Donnie as such how he knew it made no sense but he saw her as nothing less than his kid. Sure it was a shock to learn the makings of her DNA. Who wouldn’t be phased by who your adopted kid’s parents were when you never had a way to find out before? More so when one of them was someone Summer’s dad’s have spent years fighting with ? And was also the biggest threat o the life Casey wanted to ensure. An the murder of their father, look Raph didn’t care for the guy but he can at least attempt sympathy on that bit.

"Raph, far as I'm concerned, an Angel heard our wish that night, an' granted it, 'cause they knew our lil' girl was missin' an' she needed t' be brought 'ome t' us,"

"Well considerin' where she could wind up? Yeah." Not that Raph was best when it came to that sort of thought he did agree it was something good that brought Summer to them. If anything this just proved it futher.

"She's our lil' girl, no matter what."

Raph just keeps his gaze on Casey, of course that was the case. Nothing would change that hell she could come from any villian they ever tussle with and that would change.

"Casey," he speaks up again "we both knkw 'hat ain't gonna change its fine if your freakin' out over the news." Casey out of the two of them had the most right to be after all. Besides Raphael knew how much Casey wanted a kid...it was part of why he left Casey after all.

"We'll 'ave t' tell her, I think, I dunno - just don't sit right keepin' it from her,"

Raph moves his hand to lay on top of one of Casey's own. He agreed with that telling Summer was only right.

"Just, aint got a clue on how we're gonna d' it."

"We ain't gonna keep it from here. Wouldn' be 'ight..ya know she won' take it easy though 'ight?" Raph prompts a bit smiling slightly as he tries to give Casey some comfort with all of this, leaning over to rest hus head aginst Casey's own. "Ya know how much she 'ooks up ta ya Case? Ain't gonna be easy for her to take who she came from." Summer was going to hurt no matter how she learned Raphael knew that for sure. Once again he hears something though once is one thing but a second?

"What is that?" He slowly pulls away from Casey "Don't matter how or when Case 'ike you said we just gotta tell her. No matter what coming from us should well..be a tad easier?" He hopes opening the door of thier room to look around, nothing. He didn't like that he steps out a moment to take a peak out the room.

"Fuck." Raphael suddenly says. Thw front door Casey had slammed shut was opened. And if they were in the room together? "Case, I don' think Leo taught Sums the best way ta cover her tracks." Looking back at Casey and moving aside so they could see the door of they moved to look as well of they moved to get up. "Cause looks 'ike the hard part of tellin' her been handled for us."

PROMPT: Shrek; 567 Words

Okay, so the general premise is:

Marinette is Shrek, except she presents femininely.

Donkey is Stephanie, Puss in Boots is Cass.

Jason is Fiona, except he went to his tower in the middle of nowhere because of Some Incident, and befriended a dragon and asked them to guard it for him!

Bruce is Lord Farquaad, and he is desperately trying to talk to Jason. He hires knights to break into the castle and kidnap Jason, since Jason burns all his letters and also this is BRUCE WAYNE we're talking about, healthy communication will happen Never.

Tim went to Bruce to try and fix his relationship with Jason and got cursed into an All-Seeing Mirror who also can't curse.

Adrien is Prince Charming and Gabriel is the Fairy Godmother.

Marinette's hired by Bruce and she becomes besties with Jason because she is absolutely INSANE while breaking into the castle, and Jason can respect that.

At some point, Marinette and Jason run into Adrien, who is getting ~taken advantage of~ by Gabriel to sell morally suspect products. (Perhaps Adrien is a Robin Hood-esque figure, except instead of stealing from his Dad he loudly advocates against his products?)

here's some tiny snippets i came up with in the #mgi-events-zone, mostly!

"Damn," the green woman said, looking mournfully at Donkey, "They don't even have dental." Donkey somehow managed to scoff. Behind her, Prince Charming choked trying to contain his laughter.

As Marinette rappelled into Jason's room (how the FUCK had she gotten that high), backlit by the sun, all Jason could think was: "If I weren't gay, I would TOTALLY tap that."

"Bruce," the Mirror implored, "Mr. Wayne, Lord Wayne, whatever you'd like to be called. I have three words for you! TALK. TO. HIM." Lord Bruce Wayne, one of the most powerful mages in the kingdom, put his head into his hands and sobbed. The Mirror, who really preferred to be called Tim, sighed. "Here we go again," he muttered. "I'm all-seeing, but apparently my boss," here he coughed pointedly at Bruce, "can't see the merits of the simplest solution that even a ten year old could have come up with."

Stephanie was remarkably humanoid, for a Donkey. Marinette asked if she was cursed, and Steph said, "Oh, yeah, totally, but less guys are jerks like this, and if someone falls in love with me as a DONKEY and kisses me, I'll break the spell just for the hell of it."

The Cat had a presence that few could measure up to. Even while leaning casually against a tree, she seemed cloaked in shadow. "Um, hi?" Marinette said. "Please don't murder me?" The Cat snorted. "Too easy," the Cat said. "We're doomed," Steph muttered to Marinette. She, regrettably, agreed.

here's some shitpost-format musings!

Bruce, desperately trying to tell his son he loves him through various knights: Jason, PLEASE LISTEN -- Jason, convinced his Dad is trying to murder him: I'M NOT FALLING FOR THAT, BASTARD!

Marinette, taking the contract solely for the money: Dude, those are some serious Daddy issues. How about this -- I'll go with you and tell him to fuck off. Also I'll design you better dresses, green is not your color.

The Mirror, who is somehow Tim: ... Bruce, what if. Get this. What if. You communicated with him YOURSELF. Bruce: I could never! Then he'd hate me! Tim: YOU MOTHER-- (the mirror-curse-mandated censor kicks in)--HUGGER! FU--DGESICLES! ARGH!

Daminette December 2022: 21-Green

Marinette never expected her life to change so much due to one color: green.

Her first crush, Adrien Agreste, had light green eyes. The first time she truly spoke to him, they were filled with honesty. His eyes seemed to carry so much wonder and joy. Over time, they were clouded with uncertainty. There came a point where he averted his eyes away from her. Those green eyes she had loved, were now the eyes of a coward.

Lila Rossi was the net person with green eyes and would become her enemy. Lila's eyes were conniving and sharp. Her eyes seemed to shift between yellow-green and dark, when she was angry. Lila was a liar, who tried to ruin her life.

The last pair of green eyes that changed her life belonged to the love of her life, Damian Wayne. Damian had made her life so much better. She had been at her lowest, when he found her. He understood her artistic needs, when she was anxious, and how to calm her down. Damian and his family were her biggest supporters, after her own family.

"Please, welcome the Waynes!" the announcer cried out.

Marinette smiled and gripped her husband's arm, as they took the stage with the rest of the family. She kept a smile on her face, as she caught Lila's eyes from across the room. They were dark green; green with envy. She could see the hatred in her eyes. She spotted Adrien's eyes filled with shock and worry.

"I think we'll need a bigger stage soon." Bruce quipped, as he took the mic, "Some of you may know my family, but not everyone does. Let me introduce my sons: Richard Grayson-Wayne, Jason Todd-Wayne, Timothy Drake-Wayne, and Damian Wayne."

The boys waved.

"Many of you do not know the girl at the end. That is Marinette Wayne, my daughter-in-law and Damian's wife."

Marinette smiled as people clapped. Bruce was quick to had over the mic.

"Thank you, Bruce." she smiled, "We are so happy you are all here, today, to help us donate to the children! Every dollar you donate will help us bring a smile to a child's face. Not every parent can be there for them, twenty-four seven, and we want to help those families. They have bills, work, other children to look after. A sick child should never feel that they are a hinderance to their family. Many of you have already donated and we are very thankful. Prince Ali of the Kingdom of Achu is here tonight! We are most grateful to his generous donation through his charity for pediatric hospitals. I, personally, will be shutting down comissions to make clothes for the children in the hospital. The Wayne Foundation will also be donating a million dollars to the hospital, directly, to create a whole ward dedicated for pediatrics."

The crowd began to clap and cheer. As the number of donations began to skyrocket, the Waynes left the stage to mingle.

"Mrs. Wayne." Gabriel spoke, introducing his presence, as well as Adrien and Lila's.

"Ah, Mr. Agreste." Mari smiled, "I thought I spotted Adrien and....your model."

Gabriel cleared his throat, knowing her distaste for Lila.

"Are you still mad at me, Marinette?" Lila questioned, "I promise I'm not the same person I was back in college."

"Yes." He stated, ignoring his muse, "I'm shocked to hear you will be closing your comissions though."

Marinette smiled, "Aside for creating clothes for the sick children at the hospital, I want to create the perfect nursey for our child."

Adrien's jaw dropped, "You're pregnant?"

"Oh, did that news not reach Paris?" Mari asked, "It's been known for almost three months."

"You're so thin!" Lila shrieked, "You must see my doctor. You're practically killing your own child."

"My wife is perfectly healthy, you deranged pig." Damian growled.

"Damian!" Marinette called out, "It's okay. I'm sure you remember me telling you about Lila. She was the disabled model, who didn't know how to control her own mouth."

Lila snapped her mouth shut.

Marinette smiled, "I told my husband all about you disability, Lila. Don't worry, even my parents told him how much they appreciated Gabriel for that reason. I don't know how many times I heard them tell customers about the girl with the lying disease and how Gabriel was an inspiration for having you model for his brand. Myself and Rose already warned Prince Ali, so you don't have to worry about him. We made sure he wouldn't sue you for your false claims about working with him on an environmental project. I also made sure Jagged Stone wouldn't sue you either. I'd be careful who you speak to tonight, though. This is Gotham and if you speak to the wrong person, well, they might call GCPD on you. I'd hate for them to mistake you as someone in dire need and you end up in Arkham Asylum. You might find yourself at the mercy of the rouges. I'd hate if that happened and I could have stopped it."

"Marinete, you're scaring her." Adrien interrupted.

"Adrien." Marinette growled, "I'm only telling her what she needs to hear. If something were to happen to her under your father's watch, imagine the hit to the brand. Many people don't know she's disabled! Not to mention, she's an adult. She can't call her mother to get her out of the asylum, only the doctors can decide when she is fit to leave."

Lila kept her mouth shut and her head down.

"And you can't do anything?" Adrien asked.

"No." Damian sneered, "Are asking my pregnant wife to put herself in harm's way around the mentally ill? If you and your father cannot control your girlfriend, then take her back to the hotel until your scheduled flight. Angel, let us return to the manor. You don't need to stress yourself out tonight. You have already said what was needed."

"Mr. Agreste, you can always call Wayne Enterprise and they will patch you through to me to continue our conversation." Marinette declared.

"Of course, Mrs. Wayne." Gabriel stated, "I apologize for my guest. Her words were unnecessary and have caused you stress. I'll make sure Ms. Rossi returns swiftly to the hotel, on your good fortune."

Marinette nodded and was guided away to the rest of the Waynes. Gabriel watched as Marinette hugged her new family and left the hall.

"Ms. Rossi." he spoke.

"Yes, Mr. Agreste?" she questioned.

"I believe I stated for you to return to the hotel." he growled.

"But-" Lila countered.

"I will personally be speaking to Prince Ali and Mr. Stone about your disability. They will decide whether I should keep you as a model. I require perfection and from what I hear, you are far from perfect." Mr. Agreste sneered.

"I was a child!" Lila shouted.

"Then, lie and live in Arkham Asylum for the rest of your life." Gabriel declared, "Adrien, you will stay by my side. I don't want you associating with Ms. Rossi, until further notice."

"Yes, Father." Adrien spoke.

Marinette relaxed in the car as Damian drove them back to the manor.

"Habibiti, forget the words of the insufferable wench." Damian stated, "You handled her beautifully."

Marinette sighed and closed her eyes.

"I will prepare peppermint tea once we are inside. You should disrobe and get comfortable in the sleepwear your mother sent you. We can lay in bed and watch that show you prefer; the one with sewing and challenges." he continued to speak.

As Marinette relaxed, she felt herself drifting off to sleep. Only one thing was on her mind, as she rubbed her stomach.

'I hope you have your father's eyes.'

[2cute]

a long awaited giant list of plots for every single muse i have. listed will be muse info & beside each connection will be gender & age range if applicable. most are romantic, but i’m 100% okay with making them platonic after some plotting. **note: some muses have powers and/or are not human. they have human verses. quite a few of these plots listed are for different verses anyway. look at my muse page for further details about these muses. also these plots aren’t very concrete, we can change them as much as we need/want to :)

PLEASE LIKE AND/OR MESSAGE ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ANY OF THESE PLOTS. while i recognize that the same plot may be written out differently with a different partner, i’ll likely cap each plot at a maximum of two depending on how much attention certain ones get. thank you for understanding.

some of these plots/muses contain triggers that involve chronic illnesses, accidents, abuse, and death. please use caution. if you’d like to avoid certain triggers tell me and i’ll tell you which muses to avoid.

yvette beaumont. 24. bisexual. tattoo artist. she/her. tati gabrielle

[any, 21-29] would kill for a classic flower shop owner/tattoo artist thread. can’t really go wrong with that.

[platonic or romantic] in an au where yvette can use her tattoos as sort of magic runes, she tattoos a specific rune [muse/mun’s choice] onto your muse. whether she tells them or not can be discussed / whether your muse knows of her abilities can be discussed. 

[any, 21-29] rival tattoo artists...? idk. @.@ it’d be fun. can be platonic.

fengmian zhou. 22. lesbian. paramedic. she/they. zhong feifei

[any if platonic, women/nonbinary if romantic, 20-26] your muse knew the real fengmian [this fengmian’s dead twin sister] in a platonic sense and were suspicious about the details regarding her death. they eventually find this living twin posing as fengmian. chaos ensues. lots of angst.

[women/nonbinary, 20-26] your muse calls the ambulance way too much for the excuse to see fengmian again. she’s suspicious because what of person has that kind of money huh

[platonic or romantic] fellow paramedic or figherfighter or doctor or nurse etc that often interacts with fengmian. they’re usually on good terms, but don’t often get the chance to chat because their work keeps them busy. fengmian would like to get to know them more :)

[platonic or romantic] someone she met in group therapy / grief therapy when her long term girlfriend passed. these two are still in contact and have occasional meet ups just to check in on eachother and make sure the other is doing well

[any, similar age] aurora and your muse made a pact when they were in their twenties that if they aren’t married by forty, then they’d marry each other. with forty fast approaching, your muse contacts aurora after over a decade of not talking. they meet up, start talking again, discuss how the pact was silly and they fall in love anyway :)

[any, 22-28] haha fake dating time! gun needs someone to come to an event promoting the webtoon company they make webtoons for with them! and who better to ask than the one (1) friend they have, aka your muse :) alternatively, your muse needs to bring a s/o to a big important family event and they panic and choose gun. meanwhile, gun is very fucking terrified of big important family events considering their own family situation. this is fine :)

[women/nonbinary, similar age] ex-wife! they’re on good terms, they just weren’t compatible. they have a son that they coparent/share custody of that’s around 11 now. probably never get back together but it’d be nice just having quiet chats between them and talking about how their relationship was and how their current ones are.

[any, 27-36] ah the act of falling in love with someone after being single for so long and having to balance a demanding job and a kid. it’s difficult. alijah still wants to make it work. but is your muse as invested in this blooming relationship as he is?

harin song. 26. bisexual. medical intern. she/they. han sohee

[any, 24-30] as the sibling that’s continuously overlooked, she’s trying everything to get attention from her parents, whether that be good or bad. this type is definitely the bad kind. your muse, for whatever reason, is a really fucking terrible influence and/or person. harin brings them to the family winter vacation anyway :)

[any, 24-30] your muse is haneul’s best friend. harin likes them. maybe they’ve had a relationship for a bit and are hiding it. maybe not. who knows.

haneul song. 26. bisexual. surgical intern. he/him. lee dohyun

[any, 24-30] just generally flirty vibes :) for fun :) haneul has a big ol’ crush on your muse. they may or may not return it but haneul shows off every time he sees them anyway. plz notice him.

siobhan ‘shiv’ walsh. 26. bisexual. medical intern. she/her. samantha logan

[any, 27-30] okay stay with me. we all know shiv has issues with people saying she’s only here bc of nepotism considering her aunt runs the hospital. give me a resident/attending that Knew shiv’s aunt was bringing her to work here for a Fact. they know she’s here because of nepotism. they are fully absolutely annoyed at this fact and make it their mission to make shiv’s life hell. and it’s working. kind of. because turn’s out shiv is actually very good at what she does and probably would be here anyway. enemies to lovers type beat.

beejal ‘bee’ chaudhry. 25. bisexual. author. can make avatars of herself. anya chalotra

[antagonistic platonic romantic] your muse Knows that bee’s mom is a high profile actress and that her dad is a politician. they know. they plan to bring this to light for some reason. maybe they dont like her. maybe they don’t like her parents. whatever. chaos. 

[any, 22-30] REALITY TV SHOW. i havent seen any but i just think it’d be fun to write bee in that type of environment considering how awful she can be. will likely require a lot of plotting. romantic or platonic or antagonistic i want them at eachother’s throats i want them to kiss i want them to be messy.

okay ! so first step in my revamp is establishing what muses i’m going to be writing ! first and foremost, i’m doing myself a favor and NOT really having primary, secondary muses, etc. muses are weird. sometimes they’re loud, sometimes they’re not. i’m going to write who is loud and when muses go quiet, i sometimes might not write them for a while. i apologize if that happens to be someone you want to interact with. PLEASE know that i love and adore you and i will reply as soon as they wake up again. i’m always happy to plot aus so if you want to do that with someone who is awake, let me know !

i’ll be making a more fancy muse page and stuff, but until i have the spoons to do that, i’ll be posting A LIST under the cut. i’ve almost definitely forgotten at least one muse so if you followed me for someone and they aren’t on here, know that i probably still intend to write them and just forgot. feel free to ask. i will also write certain muses on a request only/private basis so that also works, though mostly for partners i know really well !

so without further ado, here is my current working muse list ( in alphabetical order ):
