#Gemma Green: interactions

[elegancemultimuse]

Gemma followed him out to the balcony. She still couldn't get over the lifestyle that Cashel lived. It was very different than anyone else that she really spent time with. There was a sense of luxury to it all that was very unique. She nodded her head at his words. "A smoke would be great." Gemma replied as it was a habit that she had picked up in university. It didn't matter how many lectures that she'd gotten as a kid, they clearly hadn't stuck. "You don't need to worry about corrupting me, the ship has already sailed." Gemma added as she didn't want for Cash to feel bad about the situation.

Cash couldn't help himself, his eyes hungrily skimming over Gemma's body to that slice of milky skin peeking out from under her shirt. Licking his lips he turned away and took a calming breath before reaching back for her, walking out hand-in-hand onto the balcony. Only dropping it to take out a cigarette and lighting it, he looked over at her. "Did you want one or a vape." He was used to having people ask for both, and there were new pens and cartridges around the place, largely from companies that wanted to photograph him using their products. "Not that I recommend it. I've tried to quit a half dozen times, but..." Cashel trailed off, not wanting to burden her with tales of his father's addiction and the drama of his band.

Intro to Us - Masterpost

We’re The Reflection Family, a collective of over 200 members (so far) in eight different branches sharing a body. Our collective is organized into several distinct groups and categories, reflecting different origins, roles, and characteristics of our coanimans. Each branch has its unique dynamics and members, influenced by their proximity to certain fragments.

Types of Coanimans: A Guide to Our Color Coding

• The Original (White): Mckayla, the primary coaniman associated with the body.

• Core (Dark Grey): Human coanimans who are direct splits from Mckayla, sharing similar physical traits.

• Undead (Black): Coanimans disconnected from reality due to near-death experiences; not necessarily direct splits.

• Hypnosis (Desaturated Pink): Coanimans created via hypnosis, either accidentally or intentionally.

• Non-Human (Purple): Coanimans that are either direct splits or introjects of animals.

• Fiction-Sourced (Light Pink): Introjects named after fictional characters or celebrities.

• IRL-Sourced (Teal): Introjects from real-life relationships.

• Fragments (Green): Coanimans embodying singular characteristics and influencing nearby parts when co-conscious.

• Spirits (Light Grey): Protective entities or guides within the system.

Overview of Our Structure

Hosts: Who's in the background?

The hosts in the collective not only manage daily life, social interactions, and external relationships but also play a crucial role in preserving long-term memory recall within a collective memory bank. They act as the primary points of interaction with the outside world, ensuring that the collective's needs and responsibilities are met while maintaining a stable presence. By embodying qualities such as adaptability, resilience, and social awareness, the hosts effectively navigate diverse situations and challenges, presenting a cohesive identity to those outside the collective. Through their ability to coordinate with other parts and maintain access to shared memories, the hosts ensure continuity and a functional existence, bridging the internal world with external reality and fostering a sense of cohesion and unity within the collective.

• Veronica - 23-24 - Oversees relationships and social interactions.

• Sel - 17-24 - Manages school-related tasks.

• Selene - 18-24 - Focused on work and professional responsibilities.

• A39 - ageless - Responsible for switching between parts.

The Gatekeepers: Who Runs The System, Really?

The gatekeepers in the collective are vital entities responsible for managing and regulating access to various aspects of the inner world and the collective's complex internal landscape. They oversee the flow of memories, emotions, and information, ensuring that the right coanimans come forward when needed and that sensitive or potentially destabilizing memories are kept at bay until they can be safely processed. The gatekeepers also play a protective role, shielding more vulnerable members from traumatic recollections or overwhelming emotions. By maintaining a delicate balance between different parts and their experiences, the gatekeepers facilitate smoother transitions and interactions within the collective, contributing to overall stability and coherence in navigating daily life and therapeutic work.

[regaliasonata]

Also character ask ZIGGY

Character Ask: Ziggy Grover

First Impression

-Definitely falling under the average green ranger stereotype of being the silly but less engaged member of the team, though that is quite alright cause he'll probably give some positivity to the team due to the state they are in via the season

How I Feel About The Character/Impression Now

-.....I love this twink and honestly me and everyone else should love him, the fact that he was in a mafia, managed to escape, gave medicine and supplies from said group to orphans in needed AND GOT OFF SCOT FREE WITH HIS TOASTER BOYFRIEND speaks volumes.

Favorite Moment

-So far has to be that scene between him and the cartel where he's got that serious face, I'll have to go back and fully complete RPM but seeing Ziggy look so cold is amazing.

Idea For A Story

-okay think of this....Ziggy as a Peter Pan type character who was reborn in another world that raises orphans or children who've passed early and they live in this alternate world with magic, at the same time he's an assassin that's teaming up with Dillon and Tenaya(who also have powers based on fairy tales) to steal ancient treasure from a tyrant king in order to rule the rule, Once Upon A Time walked so this can run.

Relationships

OTPs

-Ziggy/Dillon....obviously, can't have a happy twig without his grumpy muscular emo boyfriend.

-Ziggy/Scott, Ziggy/Flynn. Both these work really well in my opinion.

-Crackship idea if this crossover was ever a thing...Ziggy/Jarrod/Dillon/Casey, imagine all that chaos together with those four like(I'd pay to see a one shot of this tbh). Heck not even a crossover needed because JKP exists in the RPMverse and assuming the entire team is alive then this could fly, crazy twinks and the emo duo.

BROTPs

-Ziggy/Dr.K, honestly feel like he understands Dr.K and they are really close when it comes to hearing each other out, plus Ziggy might actually get her to enjoy some hobbies.

-Ziggy/Casey...seriously Disney fucked us over from ever getting this interaction, be happy with marvel I guess but imagine the send off you could've had.

-Ziggy/Tenaya, she needs earplugs every time he talks about Dillon...

Unpopular Opinion

-Kinda wish we got even more of a backstory for him or seen Ziggy encountering other green rangers. I feel like both him and Trip would get along quite well to be honest.

One thing I wish would/had happened in the show

-....We serious? That Jungle Fury/RPM crossover obviously because ALL THOSE INTERACTIONS AND SUCH WOULD'VE BE LEGENDARY.

-Even if he didn't end up with Dillon we should've had Ziggy kissing some guy.

-Imagine a scene of Ziggy hacking Venjix down with his axe after he found out the program's intention for Dillon, or if Venjix succeeded and Dillon died...it would've been brutal like Ziggy would be shown Venjix why the cartel kept him around🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡

Headcanons

-The RPM team technically has sentient zords because in reality they hold secret Engine Souls like their Go-Onger counterparts. This is actually a result of humanity evolving and without the vitality from Earth's nature so their animal spirits evolved into Engine Souls, thing is the team hasn't unlocked them but when they do the zords will be able to talk(a little fib of my JFAU movie arc idea with RPM cause we deserve that crossover).

-Ziggy's fingernails can turn dark green because of Venjix exposure, some humans after being exposed to the virus during their apocalypse developed small traits via their survival(Scott having sharper canines, Summer being able to detect metals for tools, Flynn when growing out his hair has white highlights and can absorb radiation, Gem and Gemma can see people's dreams and Dillon can purify dirty food and water).

-Ziggy sleeps with a huge dolphin as a pillow or just something to hold whenever he's sad. If he can't morph then he'll fill it with rocks and beat down venjix monsters with it.

-Sometimes when he would leave the dome(before the world began to return to normal) he'd walk miles until making it to the ocean since it wasn't fully destroyed and enjoyed watching the waves. Plus that spot is the only one in the world where the stars in the sky are still viewable.

-After RPM Dillon, Tenaya and Ziggy ventured out into the world to see what needed to be fixed, they built a railroad and it oddly began to glow with energy. This led to the team getting powers via trains and soul power with imagination, humanity's will to keep going(ToQger adaption), villains born from the deceased malice of humanity aim to take advantage of this world and others leading to the team having bigger stakes than last time.

Hello ...hope you are fine

Any good historical enemies to lovers recs ?

Hi, anon! Hope you're well, too! Here are some historical enemies to lovers fics for you!

A Stór Mo Chroí by kiwikero / @icanhazzalou

It was a gloomy, grey day in the highlands. The sun, try as it might, couldn’t manage to break through the clouds, painting land and sea alike in muted colours. Perhaps it wasn’t so desolate as all that, though it certainly seemed that way to Louis. Of course, his perception might have been coloured by his own foul mood. Everything seemed to have gone from bad to worse recently, and if his own problems weren’t enough now he had to pretend he didn’t want to throttle the chieftain of Clan Gunn, the one currently traipsing around the village and greeting clansmen as if he wasn’t just a glorified intruder. Louis narrowed his eyes as he watched Harry interact with Agnes and her young son, Harry stooping down to talk directly to the little boy. The Clan Gunn tartan, simple blocks of green and black, marked Harry as someone who clearly didn’t belong amongst them, and yet the people of Clan Sutherland always seemed delighted to see the man.

Traitors.

Louis is a young laird from Clan Sutherland and Harry the chieftain of Clan Gunn, and an alliance between their clans isn't enough to convince the two of them to get along.

now i think that i could love you back by maroonmoonlouis

“I do not care if she banishes me to my chambers for a month or the rest of the year, you two must see reason,” Louis protests, feeling a minor fit coming on. “He is nothing but an insufferable, cocky, cloddish, pitiful excuse for an Alpha, and he deserves to live the rest of his days in solitary, not me.” “My, my, what an array of abuse. I surely would loath to be this inadequate excuse of an Alpha you speak of, but alas I cannot relate to possessing such deficiency,” a honey-glazed voice drips out from behind Louis, and the omega can feel the steam pouring over, ready to burst out of his already flushed ears.

- Or, the one where Omega Prince Louis is thrown a Courting Ceremony. A weekend full of competition ensues for his hand in marriage. As if he’s not already stressed about choosing his future Mate in three days, it’s just his luck that his enemy, Alpha Prince Harry has decided to partake as well.

Ace of Spades by @allwaswell16

Living as a sheltered omega in a farming village has not prepared Harry for life aboard the most notorious pirate ship to sail the Atlantic.

Or Louis is a pirate, Harry is his captive, and no one is who they say they are.

Just You Wait by grapenight 

When Harry eavesdrops on a conversation between Louis and his mother, he hears Louis insulting his family. He doesn't have the heart to tell his family, who believes Louis and Gemma will get married, so Harry makes a plan to expose Louis for the person he really is.

Very loosely based on Downton Abbey. Harry is the son of nobility, and Louis is expected to marry his sister.

[elegancemultimuse]

Gemma nodded her head at his words. "I guess that makes sense. I am assuming they try to give people with small kids the day off first." She told him as that made as much sense as anything else. "I usually spent the holidays with my parents."

"Christmas I'm either at work or with my sister." Other than that first Christmas Maddie was in LA, they tried to spend the holiday together. "What about you? Do you have anyone to spend it with?"

This is our Monthly Activity Check (October) !!

Please note that we will no longer be conducting monthly interest checks. As per our new rules going forward, players must be active at least twice per month on 2 separate weeks on all characters, and must interact with at least 2 players per character.

How is this activity check conducted?

Mod Gemma has combed through each character blog and made a note of when each character was active and with whom. RED warnings mean that no activity was made during the month. ORANGE warnings mean that there was activity, but it doesn't meet one of the above rules. GREEN means that you're in the clear and were seen to be active and interacting with multiple players. I am keeping note that those with more characters may fall behind on activity on some characters from time to time. This is our first activity check and I may be more lenient in future, but this is really just to make everyone aware of what I'm expecting going forward. Characters in the RED have 1 week to become active or they will be re-opened. If there is an issue, please speak to me: you can ask for a hiatus if you need one!

Gen 1. Snow White #1.5 Prologue

Snow's mother Gemma dies when she is an early teen. King Georg rebounds with Evil Queen (yes, that's her name) who promptly proposes to him. After he rejects her despite being smitten (there must have been some spellcrafting at work by the Watcher), Evil (the Watcher) uses cheats to make them get married. Very soon after, Georg dies of some mysterious poisoning, and now floats around wafting green fumes, cross-stitching and "cheating" on Evil with Gemma's ghost, his first true love.  Snow suffers at the hands of Evil Queen, but her ghastly parents are unable to intervene other than to provide some occasional companionship.

Requirements and My Loose Interpretation:

Have an awful relationship with your stepmother who makes you do all the cooking and housework. More or less, since butlers were mostly useless.

Never leave your home neighborhood. I'm imagining Medieval High is in the Bramblewood...

Meet a teen sim in your neighborhood who you build a friendship and romance with, but never kiss/woohoo. Poor Florian missed his chance, but he never gave up reaching out to Snow after she disappeared.

Move into a cottage as a YA, and have no social interaction with anyone (including no contact with stepmother or boyfriend). This includes never answering the door to strangers. I didn't let Florian in, but Mateo (butler, I guess he wasn't useless after all) and Georg just let themselves in, and I was in tears, so grateful for the help because the 7 toddlers nearly killed me.

Adopt 7 toddlers (dwarves) in one go. Give the children traits that match their dwarf persona. Meet the Dwarfs

Never eat apples or anything to do with apples. Did you know cooking fruit salad shows an animation with apples? I did not. Oops. Also... I break this one only once more in the story :).

When the dwarves are teens, you can finally meet your partner again. As soon as I possibly could without intervening...

Get married and move into your lover's castle. Check!

Have one daughter (Cinderella). Check!

Master parenting and baking skills. Check!

Complete Big Happy Family Aspiration. Check!

Story and Dialogue below cut:

And another holiday approaches as we get ready for New Year’s Eve, to welcome in a hopefully less chaotic year...and Gemma is getting startled by the ghost of her husband, who has literally been appearing regularly, really?

Gemma: Just cause I’m used to it doesn’t meant it doesn’t startle me!

Fair enough, and in exciting news Gemma just maxed out the Parenting skill which means not only does she complete one of the goals for this generation, but she’s one step closer to completing her aspiration in time for Sonia to age up!

Max out the Parenting skill. [Parenthood GP]

Gemma: Huh, maybe you’re not a total failure at this legacy thing after all...

Ha ha, I’ll be so happy to move onto Gen 2.

Beginning / Previous / Next

[elegancemultimuse]

Gemma couldn't have imagined that things were going to go this well. She was happy that her feelings for Seren were now in the open and that they seemed to be returned. While she was a bit nervous about the new development, Gemma was also feeling pretty excited about how things were going. Once she pulled away she felt giddy. "That makes both of us." She admitted as Gemma had often thought about how it would feel to kiss the other.

You’re always going to have me in your life, those words caused Seren’s heart to soar with happiness and relief. Gemma was the brightest star in her life and that confirmation that she would never lose the other chased away all her doubts and fears that prevented her from doing something like this. She easily allowed herself to lean in and connect their lips in a gentle kiss, her lips moving slowly against Gemma’s to savour the sensation. “God, I’ve thought about doing this way too damn much.” She murmured against her lips.

[daisydezem]

Alpha: Why ask? You are here aren't you? I told you last time that if you keep doing a good job you might become leader. Gemma: What? Me!? Kappa: Yes yes... we get it it's a shock now can we move on? Alpha: This plan you gave of Cohabitation... it's working really well. We now have Kamila, Melanie, Jennie and Willie. And most of them in very different ways. So I've given it a permanent green light to make the most out of it. You were right and deserve a leader role in you're own experiment. Epsilon: How do you feel about me joining you all down there? Gemma: Oh wow... I uhm... this is all a lot right now. Epsilon is it okay if we put that on hold for a little bit? They are just adjusting to having Johnny and Infants there. And if I may be blunt, we need more people. Real human people. And next time maybe not one at a time? Alpha: Mmm so a group, then maybe he can come too? Gemma: Maybe. But give them some rest now. We can always talk about this later. Speaking of... how do you want to communicate? Espilon: Good you ask! Your phone... or mobile? What the humans use is now able for you to communicate with us and visa versa. Gemma: Oh nice! Thank you. Alpha: But... we are planning not to interact.

Half A Heart Of Green and Gold

Part 6

SUMMARY: Gemma Crouch, Slytherin's finest and Sirius Black's longtime best mate, has a habit of flirting like it's a sport-especially with him.

Everyone sees the tension but them.

Lily and Remus are done waiting.

James is taking bets.

And Hogwarts is holding its breath to see if the hottest duo finally stops pretending they're just friends.

(Sirius Black x OC)

.·:*¨༺༻¨*:·.

Breakfast in the Great Hall was loud and chaotic—students laughing, first years sleepily spilling pumpkin juice, and owls swooping in with the morning post.

But one seat at the Gryffindor table was unusually tense.

Sirius hadn't said a word. He was still stabbing at his toast when James nudged him. "You good, mate?"

"She's late," Sirius muttered, eyes locked on the entrance. "She's never late."

Remus, sipping tea and trying to keep the peace, shrugged. "Maybe she's just sleeping in."

"She doesn't sleep in."

And then the doors opened.

Every head turned.

Gemma Crouch strutted into the hall, laughing—laughing—with Caleb, her arm looped through his, hand resting on his chest like it belonged there. Her hair gleamed under the enchanted ceiling's cloudy light, her eyes sparkled red with mischief, and her smile could've cut glass.

She looked radiant. Unbothered. Dangerous.

Sirius looked like he was about to spontaneously combust.

His fork hit the table with a metallic clang.

Lily blinked. "That girl is playing with fire."

Dorcas hummed. "I love it."

"Should I... go over there?" James offered.

"No," Remus said, dragging his plate away from Sirius's clenched hands. "Unless you want your eyebrows hexed off."

Gemma didn't even glance their way. She gave Caleb a slow pat on the chest and then peeled away to slide effortlessly into the Slytherin table next to her brother, cool as ever.

Barty raised a brow. "Was that really necessary?"

"What?" Gemma said innocently, reaching for a muffin.

"The arm," he said flatly.

She bit into the muffin with a smirk. "He asked nicely."

Barty didn't press. "Game's in two hours. Don't get too bruised. And play dirty."

Gemma snorted. "Is there any other way?" Regulus gave her a look as he handed her a cup full of apple juice. "Thank you Reggie" She smiled as she ruffled his hair. "Don't mess to much with my brothers head, as it is he's already stupid' Gemma let out a laugh as she nodded.

The stands were alive with house colors and screaming students as green and yellow zoomed around the sky. It was Slytherin versus Hufflepuff—a brutal match-up if there ever was one.

Gemma stood at the edge of the pitch, her helmet in hand, broom over her shoulder. She looked every bit the golden serpent, smug and dangerous.

The Marauders, plus Lily and Dorcas, climbed down from the stands before the game.

"Good luck, Crouch," James grinned, already hyped.

"Wipe the pitch with them," Dorcas added.

"Break a nose," Lily said cheerfully.

Gemma smirked, gaze sliding over each of them until it landed on Sirius. He was the only one not looking at her.

He stared over her shoulder. Anywhere but at her.

Gemma tilted her head, one brow raised. "No good luck from you, Black?"

Silence.

"Oh?" she cooed, stepping forward just enough to make him twitch. "Cat got your tongue?"

Sirius finally looked at her. It was brief. His jaw was tight.

She smirked wider, satisfied. "Thought so."

With a wink, she turned and walked away, joining her team without another word.

James watched the interaction, lips twitching. "Mate, I'm begging you, ask her out before she kills us all."

Sirius didn't answer.

Remus, beside him, crossed his arms. "This is getting dangerous."

"And hilarious," Dorcas added.

They watched as Gemma kicked off into the sky, hair whipping behind her like a flame.

And Sirius?

He hadn't stopped watching since.

The sky was a blur of green and yellow, brooms streaking past like comets. But it was Gemma who owned the pitch.

She dove with a predator's grace, snatching the Quaffle right from under a Hufflepuff Chaser's nose. Her hair whipped behind her like a war banner, her red eyes gleaming through her goggles. Cheers erupted from the Slytherin stands—CROUCH! CROUCH! CROUCH!

Sirius couldn't take his eyes off her. Every pass, every sharp turn, every brutal shoulder-check—she moved like she was born for the sky. James nudged him from the Gryffindor section.

"You're drooling."

"I am not—"

"Mate, just admit it before someone else does."

Sirius shoved him but didn't deny it.

Below, Gemma smirked, flipped the Quaffle over her shoulder to her teammate, and bam—it was in the hoop. Ten points. Again.

When the final whistle blew, Slytherin was twenty points ahead.

They'd won.

The Slytherin team cheered as they hit the ground, Gemma's feet touching the pitch like a queen returning to her throne.

Barty met her halfway with a crooked grin and clapped her on the back. "Told you to play dirty."

She rolled her eyes but couldn't help the grin that spread across her face. "You say that like I don't always."

But before she could say more, chaos descended.

"GEMMA!"

Lily and Dorcas flew at her like arrows, throwing their arms around her, giggling like mad.

"You're such a badass," Dorcas cried, squeezing her tight.

"You elbowed that Hufflepuff in the ribs mid-air," Lily said with a smirk. "I think I saw his soul leave his body."

Gemma laughed, pulling her helmet off. "He was in my way."

Before the boys could join in, Caleb appeared out of nowhere, slipping between Lily and Dorcas with a bright grin.

"Oh, for fu—" Sirius muttered.

"Gemma," Caleb said, holding out a flower—soft lilac with deep violet edges. "You were incredible. And you look..." he offered the flower with a boyish smile, "beautiful."

Sirius stepped forward like he was ready to rip Caleb apart. James actually had to grab his elbow.

Gemma's red eyes sparkled as she slowly took the flower, turning it between her fingers, her smirk deepening as she looked—not at Caleb—but at Sirius.

Waiting.

Daring.

Lily and Remus shared a long, knowing look behind Caleb's back. It was working.

Sirius's jaw clenched, hands curled into fists at his sides. She was baiting him. She knew what she was doing.

And he had absolutely no idea what he was going to do about it.

Yet.

Sirius said nothing. He couldn't.

Gemma was smirking at him. Not Caleb. Not the flower in her hand. Not the win.

At him.

She tucked the violet bloom behind her ear, gave Caleb a charming little thank-you, and leaned in to whisper something in his ear that had no business being legal. Caleb chuckled, blush creeping up his neck.

Sirius took a very deep breath.

James coughed next to him, clearly enjoying every second of it.

"You know," he muttered, "it's funny how your eye twitches every time Caleb breathes in her direction."

"Shut it, Potter."

Remus appeared on his other side, looking far too smug for someone who'd just faked being neutral.

"I'd like to point out," he said, "that we didn't ask Caleb to give her a flower. That was all him."

Sirius ground his teeth. "Is that supposed to make me feel better?"

"No," Lily chirped as she slid in beside him. "It's supposed to make you do something about it."

But Sirius didn't move. Not quite understanding what the two of them had just confessed.

Instead, he watched as Gemma walked back toward the castle, laughing at something Caleb said, flower still tucked behind her ear and victory clinging to her like perfume.

And he hated—hated—how good she looked doing it.

Later that evening, in the Slytherin common room, the betting board had gotten bigger. More names, more galleons, and a very dramatic headline scrawled in glittering ink:

"WILL GEMMA CROUCH AND SIRIUS BLACK EVER SNOG OR WILL THE TENSION KILL US FIRST?"

Even Snape was seen glancing at it before scoffing and storming off.

Regulus just shook his head from the corner and muttered, "Idiots."

In the Gryffindor common room, Sirius was slouched in his armchair, sulking in silence as James juggled a snitch and Remus flipped through a book he wasn't reading.

"So what's the plan?" Peter asked, popping a jelly slug into his mouth.

"Plan?" Sirius grunted.

Remus glanced up. "We talking 'confess your undying love' plan or 'murder Caleb in his sleep' plan?"

Sirius didn't answer. He was too busy staring into the fire like it had insulted his heritage.

Lily poked her head in from the girls' staircase, eyebrows raised. "Still brooding?"

"He's perfecting it," Dorcas said behind her, sipping pumpkin juice.

And somewhere, in the Slytherin girls' dormitory, Gemma lay on her bed with her arms behind her head, still wearing the flower behind her ear, smiling to herself.

🖤 for lance & lucy

SEND ‘🖤 + PAIRING’ FOR ME TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING | accepting.

Lance & Lucy.

1) my muse’s initial impression of yours - he mostly saw her as gemma's insanely pretty friend, but he was also very intrigued by the way she carried herself. very poised and well-spoken. 2) my muse’s favorite physical attribute of yours - her eyes for sure. he thinks they're a gorgeous shade of green and the shape is very sultry and catlike. 3) my muse’s favorite personality attribute of yours - he likes the contrast between her poised side and how straightforward/certain she is about herself and what she wants. he finds it very powerful yet elegant, and he admires it a lot. 4) a moment that made my muse realize how much they care about yours - when their 'affair relationship' started to develop - lance saw lucy with her actual boyfriend and started to feel a lot of jealousy and insecurity. he realized he wasn't okay being the other man and wished he could be something more with her. 5) something my muse never found the words to say to yours - a love confession. he's never been able to find the moment to express his feelings and desire for a real relationship. but that's probably for the best. 6) something my muse wishes they had never said to yours - most of the things he's said out of hurt, often trying to push her away to preserve his own feelings. 7) something your muse does that makes mine feel safe - she somehow always knows the right thing to say to him whenever he needs it. it makes him/his emotions feel seen and heard. 8) something your muse does that makes mine smile - lance is a huge cat lover and it warms his heart whenever he sees lucy playing with or interacting with cats. it feels like one of the rare moments her genuine soft side comes out. 9) something my muse wants to protect yours from - honestly? everything, if he has the power to lol. he's an overthinker and knows the world sucks, so he tends to worry a lot about the people he cares about. 10) ways my muse says ‘i love you’ without saying those words - always putting her first no matter what and remembering small details. whatever she wants, he'll try his best to accommodate that. or he'll get her small things she's mentioned, just to show he listens.

The Pisces Super Blue Moon - A Bunnychesofoats tropical astrology analysis

August 30th, 2023 (Sun in Virgo)

I’m thinking of making this into a new series <3 I’m unsure how many of you are interested in astrology.

DISCLAIMER: This is my personal analysis, and based on my own studies and anecdote, only take what resonates <3

Tonight is the Super Blue Moon in pisces!

Pisces is the sign of dreams and intuition! Generally accepted to be ruled by both Jupiter AND Neptune, pisces exemplifies the energies of both these celestial bodies.

Another particular thing about our current chart, is we are at the tail end of a Venus retrograde and in the middle of a Mercury retrograde. Both planets of communication and passion (in different ways).

With the sun in Virgo 🤍 (happy birthday by the way, any of my Virgo angels… I’ll make a separate post for y’all <3) there’s a strong earth energy hanging over us along with the water moon (Pisces)

In this time, you may dream a lot more often, more vividly , or remember your dreams 🤍

A list of Pisces/Virgo luminary juxtaposition things in no particular organization:

The movie Black Swan, feels very pisces/ Virgo luminary to me. With surrealist elements and themes of the obsessed artist, as well as being suited to a darkening season; all truly fit the juxtaposition.

The colors; blue, green, pink, and silver

Dream journaling

Tapping into more feminine energy

Lucid dreaming

Sirens (see Gemma Wards role in Pirates of the Caribbean)

Cannibalism as a metaphor for love; alternatively, cannibalism as a metaphor for capitalism

Learning about water conservation and ocean pollution

Wading in a creek

Labradorite

Rose quartz

Personal anecdotes:

Seemingly, I’ve had a rough go of it leading up to this moon.

My relationships have been strained, my anxiety has been heightened, and my love life has been a roller coaster of emotions. I’ve had to reevaluate how I communicate and interact with others. My boyfriend and I have been constantly constantly at odds with one another, and I’ve had to reflect on how to word things better and change my behavior.

Tonight I plan to evaluate the current aquamarine colored haze that clouds my mind through ancestral guidance and my dreams 🤍

Sorry this post is all over the place, I’m sure I’ll get more concise as I get my footing

Ciao my angels, until next time, Oats 🤍

Aldea Sliverclaw

Princess Aldea Silverclaw was born into the royal werewolf lineage as a triplet, alongside her brother Maylin and sister Gemma. From the moment she took her first breath, it was evident that Aldea was destined for greatness. With long auburn hair cascading down her shoulders and captivating green eyes that mirrored the lush forests of her kingdom, Aldea possessed a rare beauty that captivated all who beheld her.

As the youngest of the triplets, Aldea's early years were filled with love and laughter in the grand halls of the werewolf castle. Her older brother, Elijah, was an ever-present figure in her life, always regaling her with tales of far-off lands and adventures. However, when Aldea was still a young child, Elijah mysteriously disappeared from the kingdom, leaving behind a void that would forever haunt her family.

Despite the loss of her older brother, Aldea grew up cherished and adored by her parents and siblings. Her parents, the reigning King and Queen, recognized her as the jewel of their kingdom and nurtured her curiosity and kindness. They encouraged her to interact with her subjects, believing that understanding their needs would make her a more compassionate and just future ruler.

As Aldea grew, her boundless energy and sense of adventure led her to explore every corner of the vast werewolf kingdom. She cherished the company of her siblings, often leading them on grand escapades through the woods, and they forged an unbreakable bond as they navigated the challenges of royal life together.

Despite her royal duties, Aldea always found time to interact with her subjects. Whether it was visiting the nearby villages, attending feasts and festivals, or listening to the concerns of her people, she made it her mission to be accessible and relatable to all.

As she reached adolescence, Aldea's beauty only grew more radiant, and her compassionate heart endeared her to the werewolf kingdom even further. But beneath her cheerful exterior lay a sense of longing for her missing brother, Elijah, and an ever-present weight of responsibility as the future queen of the werewolves.

As she matured into a young woman, Aldea's resilience and determination to protect her kingdom and her people were evident to all. The title of Princess did not define her solely by her beauty; it was her compassion, bravery, and wisdom that truly set her apart.

At the tender age of eighteen, Princess Aldea Silverclaw, with her long auburn hair flowing in the wind and her heart full of curiosity, found herself drawn to a young werewolf named Samson. The first time their paths crossed was during a grand festival held in the heart of the werewolf kingdom. Amidst the joyous celebrations, Aldea's eyes met Samson's deep, soulful gaze, and something within her stirred.

Samson was a brave and kind-hearted young warrior, known for his fierce loyalty to the kingdom and his gentle spirit. He possessed a rare strength and grace that made him stand out among his peers. As fate would have it, he was chosen to be one of the guards who would accompany Princess Aldea during the festival.

As they spent more time together, Aldea and Samson discovered that they shared a love for adventure and the enchanting beauty of the werewolf kingdom. Samson's genuine humility and unwavering dedication to his duty won Aldea's heart, and he was equally captivated by her kindness and compassion for their people.

Their connection grew deeper with every passing day, and their frequent interactions during the festival turned into stolen moments of laughter and heartfelt conversations. As they explored the lush forests of their kingdom together, Aldea and Samson found comfort and solace in each other's company, and an unspoken bond formed between them.

In a display of genuine admiration and respect, Samson presented Aldea with a delicate silver necklace adorned with a moon-shaped pendant, symbolizing their shared love for the lunar cycle that governed the werewolf's transformative powers. The gift touched Aldea's heart, solidifying their growing affection for each other.

Before long, Aldea and Samson's love blossomed into a whirlwind romance, their hearts entwined in a love that felt destined. The kingdom celebrated their engagement, and the young couple looked forward to a future together, full of hope and dreams.

However, tragedy struck when Samson met an untimely death, sacrificing himself to protect the kingdom from a dangerous threat. The loss shattered Aldea's world, leaving her heartbroken and unable to come to terms with the sudden emptiness that consumed her.

The loss of her beloved Samson left an indelible mark on Aldea's soul, and she never truly got over his death. Her heart mourned the love they shared, and the pain of losing him never faded.

As time went on, Aldea continued to honor Samson's memory, cherishing the love they had shared during their all-too-brief time together. The necklace he had gifted her remained a cherished memento of their love, a reminder of the happiness they once had.

Though she had never truly moved on from Samson's passing, Princess Aldea Silverclaw found solace in the memories of their love, holding onto the hope that one day, their souls might reunite in the stars above, where love transcends the boundaries of time and loss.

OPEN: Female, Male,  Nonbinary CONNECTION:  Friend, roommate, etc. Bonus points if they have feelings for Gemma. PLOT: Gemma got dumped again and has come to your muse for comfort.

“I think the problem is that I fall in love too fast.” Gemma replied with a small sigh as she dipped her spoon into the carton of ice cream. Her latest boyfriend had dumped her after only three months together and she was arguably probably more upset about it than she should have been.  “Maybe I’m just meant to be alone. I could buy a dog and get myself a nice house in the country somewhere.”

ok but 1dbandmate!yn with niall at harry's show 😭

FAMILY

A/N: um...ouch. This actually turned out longer than expected, enjoy! 💚

SUMMARY: There's a familiar face in the crowd at Harry's Love On Tour show in Dublin. (1.8k)

MASTERLIST

YN is on her own tour as of right now but both her and Harry go to each other's shows whenever they can. And whenever she gets a chance to go see her fiancé perform, she usually stands in the wings of the stage or in the box seating when Anne came. When he was performing in smaller arenas for his earlier shows on tour, she would stand (dance) near the pit. Sometimes interacting with fans whenever she could, which she and the fans absolutely loved because as we all know yn, too, is a major harrie.

But crowd interactions like that can't be so easily done when he's performing in sold out stadiums.

But exceptions are made for a reason.

There's some time left before Harry officially has to start heading out backstage.

YN is with him as always, already dressed and sitting on one of the leather couches in the green room while her fiancé puts on his shoes on a tiny green ottoman next to her. The two were in the middle of a conversation when Gemma suddenly gets a text message, excusing herself from talking with Jeff and walks right up to her future sister-in-law.

"Hey, YN. We should probably head up to our seats now."

YN furrows her eyebrows and looks at the clock on her phone with a pout to her lips. "We still got some time, Gem. Y'know we can get to the box in a couple of minutes."

"S'just, I'm getting a little nervous from all those people. S'a big crowd out there from what I've heard." Gemma lets out a nervous chuckle. "Not to make you nervous or anything, H."

"You're gonna to go down the private halls, sis. Don't gotta worry about anything." It really takes everything in her not to roll her eyes as the couple innocently looks up at her, trying to send secret mind signals to YN to just comply. 

Gemma takes a hold of YN's hand and gently but forcefully makes her get up from her seat.

"Ok, you got me. I just want to spend time with my future sister-in-law without so many people in the room. And you've been hogging her all day, let the girl breathe." Gemma quickly says, pulling her towards the door. Harry lifts his hands up with a glare towards his older sister.

"Oi!"

"Ok, ok, m'going. Just one sec." YN giggles, letting go of her hand before going over and bending down to her pouting fiancé to cup his cheeks. "You're gonna do amazing. Have fun, okay? I love you so much."

She gives him a big kiss, letting out a dramatic "Mwah!" that makes the dimples dig into his cheeks. 

"Love you so much it hurts." He tells her, grabbing her forearms to lean up for another kiss. "One more." 

YN gives in with a giggle as this goes on for another two kisses.

"Ew, ok none of that." Gemma pulls the two away as Harry continues to blow kisses her way until she's out of sight. The two women walk with their arms linked together, security surrounding them as they get escorted down the many hallways of the stadium. But YN gets a confused look on her face when they start to go away from the box seats and to the general seating area.

"Noah? Where are we going?" YN looks to her head security guard who's been on her team since her One Direction days. As he opens his mouth to respond, Gemma quickly chimes in.

"Oh! I just heard that one of my friends from primary school came to the show. You don’t mind that we make a quick pit stop before heading up, do you?"

YN knows that Gemma knows how risky it can be for her to go down to a crowded area like that. It raises her suspicion but she thinks about interacting with some fans around there. She misses them so much and wouldn't mind talking with a few of them. Even if it is for only a quick second.

"Of course not. If you wanted to see your friend so bad y'could have just told me back there." YN chuckles.

"Eh, you know how my brother is." She waves her off. "Always so protective over you that the mere thought of you going into a big crowd scares him. I wasn't lying, you need to breathe out for a sec, hon."

YN can't argue with her. Harry is always making sure his security is with her almost everywhere she goes if hers is not with her at the moment. And whenever she's away, he's calling or texting her to make sure she's safe. As much as she tells him to not check up on her so much, she can't help but secretly love it. She's a stubborn thing, claiming that she can handle herself in certain situations and doesn't need anyone—let alone a man—to protect her. But whenever he gets protective, possessive, over her, the butterflies get released inside of her belly. And it's one of things she loves most about him. She just loves him.

"You're thinking about him right now,, aren't you? Ugh, you guys are so in love it's stupid sometimes." Gemma teases. YN just laughs with a love sick smile as they begin to approach the seating area of the stadium. Once they’re led to their section, the security guards stay on the ledge above the lower seats. Gemma starts to walk down the steps first, YN following in tow.

She can hear some of the fans screaming when they spot her and YN gives a quick wave before watching her step. YN looks around and takes in how big the place is. It’s like it was yesterday that she was performing here, not only as a solo artist, but with her other four brothers.

YN sees Gemma come to a stop, smiling and waving to who she assumes is the friend she was talking about earlier. She’s getting ready to introduce herself when she sees an all too familiar face.

Niall stands up from his seat and gives a quick hug to Gemma before his eyes land on her.

YN’s breath catches up in her throat at her friend. They haven’t seen each other in person for almost two years and her heart just might burst open in excitement. 

“Niall, y’little shit.” He just laughs and it instantly ignites one of her own. She doesn’t think twice about walking into his extended arms.

“Hiya, honey. How are yeh?” He smiles into the shell of her ear, loud enough over the screaming crowd. His arms encircle the tops of her shoulders and the bottom of her chin digs into his shoulder. She’s absolutely over the moon to see him again, so indescribably happy to get one of Niall's infamous hugs. So why do her eyes start to get all watery?

“M’doing so much better now that you’re here.” She sighs out, her voice betrays her as it begins to wobble a bit. He doesn’t tease her like she thought he would. Niall just tightens his hold on her and sways them a bit.

It’s not long before he pulls back a bit and thumbs away the rogue tears from her eyes. They both chuckle at their situation and it feels like no time has passed between them. She gets introduced to his girlfriend before they both take a seat. Gemma has taken a seat in the row in front of them with her boyfriend and hasn’t stopped smiling at the success of her and Niall’s surprise. 

It warms the fans’ hearts to see how they two have been talking non-stop since they’ve sat down. They’ve been laughing so much and so hard that they’re left wondering what they could possibly be talking about to make Niall lean forward with his eyes pinched shut and YN twist in her seat with a hand to her stomach.

After they’ve calmed down a bit, Niall lets out a sigh as he looks out to the stage in front of them. “Isn’t that crazy? It feels like it was just yesterday we were all here, huh?”

“I was thinking the exact same thing on the way down here!”

“Were yeh?” He chuckles to a giggling YN as she nods her head. “And now look at us.”

“Look at us.”

“Who woulda thunk?”

“Not me.”

“Definitely not me.” The two begin to laugh again. Niall takes a sip of beer before saying, “We’re all grown up now.”

YN gives him a coy look with a quick raise of her eyebrows before taking a sip of her own drink. “Some of us have.”

It doesn’t take much to pick up what she meant. It’s been nearly impossible not to hear about what Liam said in his recent podcast interview.

He takes YN’s hand in his, the gesture making her look to his serious expression. “YN, y’really fuckin’ incredible. You and I both know I don’t need to tell you that. Or tell yeh to just block out toxic people.” Niall shrugs his shoulders and gestures out the crowd. “Just look where y’are. You’ve been performing here by yourself before any one of us. V’been meaning to tell yeh how proud I am of you. My baby sister.”

YN just tucks her lips in and nods, trying her hardest to not start tearing up again. She just rests her head on his shoulder with their hands still intertwined. 

“M’proud of you too, Nialler. I don’t tell you as often as I think about it.”

“Whatever, you’ve won like 10 Grammys already. No need to patronize me.” And that makes them both throw a fit of giggles again.

The fans capture every second they can of the other two members of One Direction when their attention isn’t on Harry performing. But all eyes go directly to Niall and YN as What Makes You Beautiful begins to play. Niall is just beaming while YN’s just wiping away her happy tears all the while they have an arm around each other. 

They make sure to leave their seats before the show ends so they can all go backstage and to Harry’s dressing room. 

Everyone’s chatting amongst themselves when the door opens and YN is quick to embrace her fiancé. 

“You did so good, baby.” She says after kissing his sweaty cheek. 

“Thank you, lovie. Where were you? I was looking up at the box and couldn’t spot...” Harry’s words trail off when he looks over YN’s shoulder to the rest of the people in the room. Well, to someone in particular. 

The two men don’t say anything but the smiles of their faces say enough. And for the millionth time tonight, YN’s trying to blink back the tears threatening to escape her eyes as she watches them share a big hug.

Just when she thinks it couldn’t get any better, Harry extends a hand out to her and Niall beckons her over with a nod of his head. She doesn’t hesitate to join the group hug and can’t help the one word from popping up in her mind: family.
