Since it's coming up on the first anniversary of FH: Junior Year, I've been thinking about that hypothetical (probably unlikely) fourth season, and I really think it should be set during the Bad Kids' High School Reunion. Especially after MisMag 2, I feel like the storytelling opportunities just compound if the Intrepid Heroes had the space to let the Bad Kids' circumstances change more drastically than they would if they did a Senior Year or even a Homecoming.

Like, you could totally still have the first episode set in their Senior Year, and have it be on their Graduation Day. The Bad Kids could have all of their sweet, sentimental moments that you'd want to see (while also setting up the season's Big Bad, ala The Seven) and have the six of them (Fig crashes the Grad Party) take a group picture photo.

All of them are filled with so much hope and aspirations before hard cutting to ten years later and meet all of them in their late twenties (thirty for Fabian), and they are doing... not horribly, but we've seen what Spyre's like for teen adventurers. What's it like for a bunch of adults who used to or still do adventure??

How much have the Bad Kids grown? How much have they backslid into their old ways? How much do they keep in touch, and who are the ones who are still closest after high school?

How does Fig feel about getting older and maybe losing some of that teenage rebellion? How does Kristen deal with actually having a congregation that's counting on her? How often does Gorgug think about killing his new boss, Arthur Aguefort? How exhausted is Adaine in the midst of the Wizard equivalent of a Doctorate (and her mother still evading her and Aelwen)? How badly does Riz need this reunion because adventuring without his best friends just isn't the same? AND most importantly...

How many divorces is Fabian Aramais Seacaster on, and why is it two?

xavier’s dynamic with mc is the most goated to me because first and foremost they chill with each other like friends do. Like that’s the foundation of everything, like sure it’s the nature of the game for it to be romantic but take that away and they would still get along so well—they’re friends and they meet each other in the middle as equals and at the end of the day it’s still love. sometimes no one else will know you the way a friend does

Tuvok is not as autistic coded in-narrative compared to what I've seen of Spock or T'Pol where they're othered heavily by those around them and have themes and arcs about struggling/striving to fit in BUT I do think he provides the vital autistic representation of not really angsting about your differences from other people because you're too busy and unaware and then even when you ARE made aware you mostly just think 'glad that's not me'. I think it's vital to have that sort of totally unbothered rep. I love that Tuvok is completely satisfied and proud of being Vulcan, doesn't long to experience emotion or struggle with a desire to express himself in a way his crewmates will understand, to be closer to them. I love that he has a long time and close friend that respects who he is and doesn't try to change him and that how close they are isn't framed as being in spite of his Vulcan nature. I love that being Vulcan isn't framed as a hindrance to him, like a roadblock to living a full and rich life. He has a wife and four kids and is a devoted husband and father. He's getting into gay horror scenarios. Tuvok was born on autism planet and he's thriving.

sorry, saw someone on reddit talking about how they "had" to kill shadowheart because they were playing a "good" character and she was "evil" and i'm like

not to make her too much of a little meow meow, but this little bitch wants to be good so much that Shar had to put a shock collar on her when she was like seven and like 40 years later it's still not working great

I love how Twilight takes Yor on dates every week and shit. His idea of a good husband is such a kind and caring man, which is insane because it's like the 60s men used to just rip chunks out of their wife's brain because she was too sad. He could get away with so much crap and just overall half assimg it, but nah, he is determined not to just be a good husband but the best husband. I don't even think it would matter to Donovan anyways he clearly doesn't care for his wife. Who taught him this?

Kieran Valentine being gay is so fucking funny. This man is an emotional vampire who spent centuries, maybe over a thousand years, being a sleazy ladykiller with a dark magical twist. He charms, manipulates and love-bombs girls. If that fails to win their hearts, he’ll outright use mind control to completely override their free will by force. If they have another love interest, he will sabotage them. His girlfriends’ feelings and autonomy mean nothing to him. He sees them as prey, objects to possess, literally claiming trophies of their hearts. When he’s done with them, he abandons them. Their hearts then stay broken. Forever. That’s part of the spell, and they are indeed still crying in his magic pictures. The girls are only allowed to heal once he’s defeated and loses his power over them.

He’s successfully “harvested” at least fourteen hearts, based on the collection we see. Monsters’ lifespans vary wildly by species, with some being immortal or extremely long-lived and some having human lifespans, so these may just be the victims who are still alive by the time of Draculaura’s 1600th birthday. And they may have been trapped in supernatural post-breakup hell for centuries on end. Some of them may have died in that state.

He’s over two thousand years old. This is the only way he knew how to consume love from his peers. How often has he done it?

And then, in the present day, he figures out that a) he can be much better satisfied by freely given love, meaning the exploitation was unnecessary, and b) he’s gay. He doesn’t like girls romantically or sexually. He just couldn’t accept that and overcompensated in the worst possible way. Can you imagine being one of his poor exes, finally able to move on, stumbling across him and Spelldon online and finding out that he was never even into you. At all. He never even thought you were hot.

Just had the mental image of modern AU Romance Dawn trio where Nami was the only one who had a bike and so they would constantly use her to get around town. Luffy either sat on the handle bars or more funnily, the basket and Zoro sat on the back but Nami got sick of peddling them around so she switched with Zoro. Problem was, Zoro had no idea where they were going all of the time. So instead of sitting back to back she had to turn around and give directions. And if Zoro didn’t listen, she would reach forward and YANK the handle to where they needed to turn. Luffy has fallen off multiple times through this and laughs every single time finding it hilarious.

Salt! Gift of the gods! Pure as silver, it puts the fine in finance! The Valyrian word for "salt" is lopon, but it's likely to show up as lopor, in the collective. Enjoy this gift of salt! Let us take some time today to celebrate salt and all it has done for our dried meats and caramels!

Fun on the Battlefield 🦏⚔️🦊

Day 2 of OC Kiss Week, and 11 of Kiss Art February: it's still Alyra, but with @ndostairlyrium 's Ela on La Fraternité by Aimé-Jules Dalou.

Since this very incospicous, much innocent ask I kept thinking about it and nothing, I have details and blabbering under the cut.

On Alyra's POV: it would be possible, but it started rough, maybe a rivalmance. Or a very slowburn enemies to lovers. At the start she would have instantly labelled Elanor as "rich human girl who never had to work one day who romanticizes something that sucks and wants to play war". And it will take quite a while to change her mind. Good with the sword? Oh wow don't tell me you had teachers and you learnt from them? WOW, what a genius. She'll come to change her mind slowly, watching her work damn hard and putting an effort. It'll come to a begrudging respect to admiration for changing her situation and not settling for her privilege. Greater admiration when Ela will admit to her to want to step back from politics, not feeling good enough for it. That will gain her approval.

On the romance part: In a first moment picture Alyra trying to push her with Alistair. Not even hiding it. "You're both paladins you are both romantics, you should fuck.". *Alistair implodes* IF Ela will suggest an interest... Alyra will be very explicit on the poly thing. She wants an open couple, not a happy ever after, not a "You're mine and I'm yours" or be exclusives. She's been there done that, she doesn't want exclusivity. If Ela's up for it? Sure, go on, my tend or yours. Otherwise, she'll be happy in leaving her and Alistair on their own. Disapprove greatly Ela keeping Alistair a Warden. Insist on staying a Chancellor anyway and get into politics, no matter what.

And yes, it could work if it's long-distance I think. x"D
