I drew my OC for The Maze Runner universe ✨ (her story below)

~ Martha „Mari” ~ named after Martha Nussbaum, American philosopher.

- 160 cm tall

- Brown, chocolate colored hair.

- Hazel eyes.

In the box:

- When she arrived in the box (one year before Thomas), Gally was the one who jumped down to her. The shock of the situation scared her so much that as she backed away from the boy, she bumped into some boxes, snagging her shirt and tearing it.

- To everyone’s surprise, Gally didn’t start shouting, didn’t grab her, and didn’t throw her out of the box. Perhaps it was because the first girl in the Glade stood right before him. When he noticed her probable fear of him, he raised his hands in surrender and tried to calm her down. As the girl began to relax, he reached out to her, and after a few seconds, she took his hand, giving him the most beautiful smile he had ever seen. „Oh, I'm so done now” he thought.

In the Glade:

- Her job was being a cook.

- She was know for being The Sunshine of the Glade. Her smile brightened everyone's day. In every situation, she tried to find the positive aspect. On better days, she would always come up with group activities or play the pranks on her friends. On worse days, when it was hard to find anything positive, she always made time to support anyone in need. She often encouraged discussions about emotions so that the boys wouldn’t bottle up their feelings. When Frypan, her keeper, wasn’t looking, she would sneak snacks to share with those who were having a tough day.

- After two months of constant flirting with Gally and giving him signals that she was interested in him… he still didn’t realize it, even though he had been in love with her since she arrived in the box. But eventually, her feelings reached him, and they were happily together.

- On her left wrist, she wears a bracelet that she received as a gift from Gally.

- Her bestfriend was Frypan, but she was also close to Ben and, for that reason, to Minho, because she was the one who always brought them breakfast at ungodly hours before their work as runners.

- When Chuck arrived he became her friend in mischiev.

- After Thomas arrived, her relationship with Gally drastically deteriorated. She couldn’t understand his hatred for the new boy and tried to explain that changes don’t always mean the worst. He couldn’t comprehend how she could trust him, especially after what happened with Ben. His hatred clouded his judgment. When she chose to escape with Thomas after the Griever attack, he felt betrayed. „We will survive here” he said to her, hoping she would change her mind. „I don’t want to survive, I want to live!” she shouted with tears in her eyes.

- When she saw him lying lifeless on the ground with a spear piercing his chest, her world came to a stop. She stood frozen as strangers began to pull them out of the room they were in.

In the Scorch:

- When they were brought into the room, it hit her what had happened, and she completely broke down. She fell to her knees, screaming from the depths of her lungs and crying so hard that it scared the others. Frypan immediately rushed to her, taking her into his arms, holding her close to his chest, and gently rocking her in an attempt to calm her down. After a moment, Minho sat down beside them, taking her hand and apologizing so quietly that it was hard to tell if he was speaking to her or to himself.

- After they escaped from the facility, she found a pair of long pants in the old shopping mall where they were hiding, she changed into them, putting on a jacket and a scarf. She also tied her hair back to keep it out of her eyes during the journey through The Scotch.

- Throughout the journey to the Right Arm camp, she traveled quietly behind the group, always at the back and never sticking her neck out. Everyone noticed that there was almost nothing left of the girl they once called The Sunshine of the Glade.

- After Teresa betrayed them and the WICKED showed up and captured Minho, she tried to save him, but she was unsuccessful, and ultimately, both of them were gone.

Captured by WICKED:

- She was on the train with Minho when Thomas and the group tried to save them.

- In the facility, they wouldn't let her see Minho. She quickly realized that he was in another part of the building when they began to transport her to the medical ward.

Being experimented by WICKED:

- Quickly, the doctors and scientists began experimenting on her, observing her reactions and monitoring her brain. Hooked up to strange machines, they put her into a state of hallucination and forced her to relive the deaths of her love - Gallys, also Chucks, Bens and others. Over time, she found a loophole in the simulation; before they could bring the next death before her eyes, she forced herself to commit suicide in the hallucination, still being safe in reality while connected to the machines. Her actions caused an error, disrupting the simulation before it fully started. However, WICKED did not give up, so for the next few months, she was subjected to experiments every day, and every day she committed suicide in her mind. She was already broken, but it was slowly destroying her from the inside.

- When they weren’t experimenting on her, she was locked in a room with a bed, a small closet, and a bathroom. Once, Teresa visited her, horrified by the state she found the girl in—neglected, emaciated, and lifeless—she approached the bed. She took a hairbrush from the closet and began to gently comb through her hair. However, all of Mari's memories rushed back of Gally, who loved to play with her long hair, running his fingers through it, or even braiding little plaits while listening to how her day went. With tears in her eyes, she pushed Teresa away and ran to the bathroom, slamming the door shut. When Teresa was about to leave, she heard the sound of shattering glass. Fearing the worst, she rushed to the bathroom. Upon opening the door, she noticed the broken mirror and Mari on the floor, surrounded by shards of glass and… hair. After breaking the mirror, Mari took a piece of glass and, with one bold motion, cut her hair to her shoulders. After doing so, her mind stopped functioning; she no longer knew what was a simulation and what wasn’t. Seeing herself in the reflection of the shard she held in her hand, she began to tremble. Looking at Teresa in the doorway, she raised her hand with the piece of glass and, staring into her eyes, plunged it into her own wrist. Teresa immediately rushed towards her, trying to stop the bleeding. The cut was shallow enough that she was quickly saved.

- When they eventually deemed her stable enough, they took her for further tests. As she was being transported by a guard, wearing a hospital gown, her head hung low, preparing for what awaited her, she didn’t even notice that a group of rebels who had been captured was being transported opposite her. As they passed each other, she lifted her head slightly and looked at one of the boys in the group. When her eyes met his, her heart stopped for a second. 'Gally?' she asked so quietly that she was afraid he wouldn’t hear her. Standing before her was the boy she had lost, whose death she had witnessed so many times that she wasn’t sure her heart could take it. He stood in front of her, taller, with more defined muscles, his hair cut short… but it was him. 'Martha?' he replied, shock evident in his eyes. Before she could react, the guards began to pull them apart in opposite directions. Both of them screamed each other’s names, trying to reach one another, but the guards’ grips were too strong. Moments later, she was around the corner, her love out of her sight. She couldn’t understand what was happening and what would happen next.

- After Gally and his group escaped with the help of a mole, the first thing he did was find the girl he had dreamed of since he lost her. He promised himself that he wouldn’t make the same mistake again and that he wouldn’t leave her alone once more. Once he found her, his group discovered an exit pointed out to them by an acquaintance, and they quickly transported themselves to the camp where Gally had been living all this time.

- It was a few weeks before Thomas and the others arrived. Gally took her to his room and laid her down on his bed. She was so exhausted from everything that she fell asleep immediately. When she woke up, she didn’t know where she was; she felt movement beside her, and when she looked to the side, she saw him. Gally was lying next to her, slightly dozing, having watched over her all night. In ideal circumstances, she would have thrown herself at him, kissing and hugging him, but Mari was shattered… she thought it was just another WICKED simulation. She spiraled into a frenzy, screaming, which jolted Gally awake and onto his feet. As she began to back away from him, shouting for him to stay away, he raised his hands in surrender, trying to calm her down, just like on the first day they met. However, this time she didn’t take his hand with a big smile; instead, she reached for the knife he had left on the nightstand beside the bed the day before. With a quick motion, she tried to stab herself in the stomach, but fortunately, the quick-thinking boy was faster and caught her hands, disarming her. Horrified by her state, he lifted her into a big bear hug and sat down on the bed, placing her on his lap while continuing to hold her close. After a few minutes, she finally calmed down, but still worried, she asked him if she was part of a simulation. Not fully understanding what she meant, he nonetheless assured her that this was not a simulation. Seeing the uncertainty in her eyes, he leaned over, brought his face close to hers, and gently kissed her on the lips. It was brief, but it made her believe him because no WICKED simulation could create such a sweet moment.

- Her episodes occurred almost every day, and every day Gally was by her side to calm her down.

- One day, Gally let her know that he was heading into the city with the group, promising he would be back soon. However, she didn’t expect him to return with guests. She burst into tears of joy when she saw the Gladers in front of her. Frypan immediately rushed toward her, hugging her tightly. Next came Brenda and Jorge, and finally Newt and Thomas. But for her, it was all too perfect; her mind began to play tricks on her again. Gally noticed her change in behavior out of the corner of his eye, but surrounded by friends, he didn’t have time to react. Mari had already grabbed a knife from Newt’s pocket, holding it out toward her neck while trembling. The boys, terrified by the situation, stepped back from her, calling out questions about what was happening. Experienced in these situations, Gally grabbed her hand, squeezing it enough to make her drop the knife but not to hurt her. With his other hand, he held her face and kissed her aggressively. As the girl came to her senses, tears streamed down her face as she repeatedly muttered, 'I’m sorry' under her breath. Gally took her to their shared room and laid her down to sleep. He then returned to the confused group and explained what she had been enduring for the past few months.

- During the plan to rescue Minho, Mari was constantly with Brenda and Frypan. Gally was worried about her; he didn’t want to be away from her, but she promised that everything would be fine and that nothing would happen to her while she was with the former cook.

- The plan succeeded; Minho and the other kids were rescued (AND NEWT SURVIVED).

Safe heaven:

- In the safe haven, she slept in a hammock next to Gally's bed, until the former builder constructed their own little hut on the edge of the beach.

- Occasional episodes still occurred, but Gally was always there to calm her until they finally stopped.

STOLEN GLANCES (oneshot)

(GALLY X M! READER)

⋆★ word count :

⋆★ warnings : n/a

⋆★ summary : M/N harbours a small crush on Gally but keeps it a secret out of nervousness. Unbeknownst to M/N, Gally is aware of his feelings and finds amusement in the way M/N acts around him.

⋆★ extra : this has been in the drafts for a whileee,,, I just didn’t like the writing to be honest but a fic is a fic so here we are

The Glade was buzzing with its usual activity. Runners were preparing for their daily venture into the Maze, Builders were reinforcing the walls, and the Cooks were bustling around preparing breakfast. Amidst all this, M/N tried to keep his eyes off the one person who made his heart race: Gally.

It wasn’t easy. Gally had a presence that was hard to ignore. Strong, confident, and always in control, he commanded respect without even trying. M/N couldn’t help but admire him from afar, his feelings a mixture of awe and a small, fluttering crush. He kept his distance, though, too nervous to let his feelings show.

“Hey, M/N!” Gally’s voice cut through M/N’s thoughts, making him jump. He turned to see Gally striding over, a small smirk playing on his lips. “You’re daydreaming again. What’s on your mind?”

M/N’s heart skipped a beat. “Uh, nothing much. Just thinking about the run today.”

Gally raised an eyebrow, clearly amused. “Really? Because it looked like you were thinking about something a lot more interesting.”

M/N felt his face heat up, he started picking at his skin nervously. “No, just... just the run.”

Gally chuckled, clapping a hand on M/N’s shoulder. “Relax, I’m just messing with you.” He lingered for a moment, his touch warm and reassuring, before heading back to his work.

M/N let out a breath he didn’t realise he was holding. Gally had that effect on him—making him nervous and flustered with just a few words. Little did he know, Gally found it endearing.

Throughout the day, M/N tried to focus on mapping the maze, but his thoughts kept drifting back to Gally. Every time he saw Gally, his stomach did a little flip. It was both thrilling and nerve-wracking, and he wasn’t sure how much longer he could keep his feelings hidden.

Later, as the sun dipped below the horizon and the runners came back and the rest of the gladers gathered for dinner, M/N found himself sitting across from Gally. The firelight cast flickering shadows, and Gally’s eyes seemed to glint with mischief.

“M/N, you’re awfully quiet tonight,” Gally observed, leaning forward. “Something on your mind?”

M/N fumbled with his fork, trying to come up with a plausible excuse. “Just tired, I guess.”

Gally smirked, clearly not buying it. “You know, if something’s bothering you, you can always talk to me.”

M/N swallowed hard, his nerves fraying at the edges. “I know. Thanks, Gally.”

Gally’s gaze softened, and for a moment, M/N thought he saw something deeper in those eyes. But the moment passed, and Gally leaned back, returning to his meal. “Just remember that, okay?”

M/N nodded, his heart pounding. He was grateful for Gally’s concern, even if it made him more nervous. As the night wore on, he couldn’t shake the feeling that Gally knew more than he let on.

The next morning, M/N was preparing to head into the Maze with Minho when Gally approached him again. “Hey, M/N. Be careful out there today, alright?”

M/N looked up, surprised by the concern in Gally’s voice. “I will. Don’t worry.”

Gally nodded, his expression serious. “Good. I don’t want anything happening to you.”

M/N’s heart soared at the words, but he forced himself to stay calm. “I’ll be fine, Gally. Promise.”

Gally’s lips curled into a small, knowing smile. “I’m holding you to that.”

As M/N ran through the Maze, his thoughts kept returning to Gally. The way he seemed to care, the subtle hints in his words and actions. It was almost as if Gally knew how he felt, but M/N couldn’t bring himself to believe it. Minho picked up on M/N’s mind wondering while running around, giving glances his ways but he decided not to mention it.

When he returned to the Glade that evening, exhausted but unharmed, Gally was there to greet him. “Made it back in one piece, I see.”

M/N smiled, feeling a rush of warmth. “Yeah. Like I said, nothing to worry about.”

Gally’s eyes twinkled with amusement. “Good. Because I’d hate to lose my favourite runner.”

M/N’s breath caught, his heart pounding. “Gally, I...”

Gally held up a hand, his expression softening. “It’s alright, M/N. I know.”

M/N stared at him, wide-eyed. “You know?”

Gally nodded, stepping closer. “Yeah, I know. And for what it’s worth, I like seeing you nervous around me. It’s kind of cute.”

M/N’s face flushed, but he couldn’t help the smile that spread across his lips. “You’re impossible, you know that?”

Gally laughed, a sound that made M/N’s heart flutter. “Maybe. But I think we make a pretty good team, don’t you?”

M/N nodded, feeling a sense of relief and happiness he hadn’t expected. “Yeah. We do.”

As they stood together, the Glade bustling around them, M/N realised that maybe, just maybe, his feelings weren’t as hidden as he thought. And that was perfectly okay.
