#Si vales valeo

[darkmodepls]

Does anyone remember those old AUs where Gil and Tarvek escape Castle Wulfenbach as kids?

well here's my take on it.

In the brief span of time between getting caught and being interrogated by the Baron, Gil and Tarvek manage to slip away and decide running away is better than being Punished (or in Vek's case,being sent home(which was worse))

They just so happen to crash land close to where Barry and Agatha are making camp and also just so happen to interrupt Barry's freak out over Agatha's Breakthrough. Barry doesn't have time to immediately make the locket, as he and Agatha need to get the heck out of dodge before Wulfenbach troops descend on their camp and he takes the boys with him because he can't in good conscience leave two young children alone in the Wastelands.

It's over a week before Barry completes the locket and, not only has Agatha's Breakthrough set the boys off resulting in a friendly blue lobster, but at least one of the boys has sussed out Barry's identity and informed the other children.

Barry quickly whips up two more lockets and has a long conversation with the kids about who the Other is and why Agatha needs to remain in hiding. It takes some convincing, but eventually, all three agree to keep the secrets. Tarvek goes so far as to agree to dye his hair and vows to hide what's happening from his family.

The children are past the point where lockets would fully suppress their Sparks, but the devices still keep it tampered down enough that they mostly remember not to enter the Maddness Place in public. (Mostly. Whichever of the trio who's not sparking typically knocks sense into the one(s) that are)

They travel together for a time as Tarvek tries to remember everything he can about the Knights of Jove and the Other's plans, but eventually Barry still decides that it's too dangerous for him to bring the kids along and leaves them with Adam and Lilith.

By the time Agatha is 15, the trio has transitioned to a romantic relationship. By the time she the boys are 18, they manage to convince Lilith to let them try studying in Paris under different aliases.

Several things happen in Paris.

1. Miriam (Agatha) befriends a lost warrior from Skifander who is so great full that Agatha remembers Barry's stories that she chooses to impart her warriors' wisdom. Their lesson schedule is often interrupted by her frequent (but friendly) clashes with...

2. The Bloodthirsty Bangladesh Dupree, who has inexplicably taken a liking to Gilbert. She just can't help but feel like she's seen him somewhere. (Maybe that portrait of a kid on the Baron's desk? Nah) One of the benefits of hanging around with Gil was definitely getting a rise out of...

3. Victorianya Stormsby, the country bumpkin, bastard of a bastard who is ever so grateful for the aid of her noble cousins. At least, that's what Tarvek wants them to think. Tarvek has stopped dying his hair and has tailor-made this persona to weasel their way back into the intelligence network of the Storm King Conspiracy. They've managed to convince his kin that she's nothing more than a harmless dupe, which has caused them to give him far too much leeway in his actions. He's even managed to inoculate her favorite cousin against slaver wasps! Finding out about his sister's death was devastating, though. She never thought that...

4. Aaronev Wilhelm Sturmvoraus has gone too far in Martellus's opinion. The desperate man had gone almost rabid when learning how their bastard cousin and her friend were both Sparks. But no one was willing to transport the two halfway across Europa after what happened to Anevka. Besides, Anya was pretty enough, and a blood test had proved she was noble enough that he wouldn't mind bedding her if Zola failed to get her act together. If Tarvek had any idea what Tweedle was thinking, it would make their skin crawl, but he wasn't the only person feeling disturbed...

5. The Maste of Paris couldn't quite put his finger on it, but something disturbed him about Colette's new friends. Gilbert appears to have dived headfirst into Paris's neighborhoods of ill-repute and has befriended not only Wulfenbach's trusted liutenant but an up and coming member of Albia's intelligence network. And while Victorianya might have the rest of her family fooled, Simon recognizes the keen gaze of her many times great grandfather in the girl's eyes. Miriam is probably the worst offender though, if that locket of hers wasn't enough to bring back troubled memories he could have sworn he heard her humming as she completed her assignments. He couldn't wait to see them go especially when their last hurrah was...

6. Getting married as a triad was both easier and harder than you may think. On one hand, the church did allow for marriages between two women and a single man, but it didn't allow for arrangements between two men and a single woman. Not to mention that they were all there under aliases, and some of them were lost heirs (all of them but shh not yet). It took some bribery, slight-of-hand, shenanigans, and several vows of secrecy, but the trio did manage to return home with a valid marriage license in addition to their diplomas. They even managed to get it in writing that the first child would be Agatha's heir and no one else.

It's probably for the best the trio only spent 2 years of study before returning to Beetlesburg. They had relished the opportunity for more 'social' experimentation, but they could only keep the acts up for so long. They did try to keep in touch with their new allies even as they were forced to ditch their aliases.

(Tarvek also came to the realization that they quite liked being a girl, but didn't want to be one all the time. Gil and Agatha swiftly got into the habit of asking her for his pronouns every morning)

They've only been back in Beetlesburg for 7 months when the Baron drops in for a surprise inspection. Agatha chose to return at home after her mugging, so Vek (currently fem presenting) takes her place as lab assistant.

This time the Search Engine interrupts the Baron as he interrogates Beetle, indirectly ending the professor's life and giving Vek the chance to flee.

They return home to find that Agatha has started sleep-sparking and Gil is having an extremely heated argument with Moloch Von Zinzer that is about to come to blows.

The Baron uses knockout gas on all four of them and decides to sort things out on Castle Wulfenbach.

Midway through the journey, he recognizes Gil and takes him back to his quarters instead of leaving him in the school. Once Gil wakes up, Klaus dumps that revelation onto him before immediately trying to speed run 14 years of emotionally repressed father-son bonding.

Meanwhile, Agatha and Vek are in a panic once they realize Gil isn't with them when they wake up. Tarvek isn't really feeling femine anymore, but doesn't want to be recognized by his old classmates so he keeps the skirt on and lets Agatha do most of the talking. Agatha, once again, convinces the students to help her before making their way out of Von Pinn's domain. The duo ran into the Jaeger Generals during this mess, as well as Dupree, who does know that Gil is the lost heir now, but is down for the chaos of helping them escape.

(Adam and Lilith still try to intervene and still get shredded, but this time Klaus will be the one to stitch them back together.)

The trio make it off the airship and manage to make contact with Zeetha who was in the area traveling with a circus before setting off to Mechanicsburg so that Agatha can claim her throne.

Meanwhile, Klaus has finally recognized Tarvek and fears that the dastardly Sturmvoraus Prince has duped his son and the Heterodyne that travels with them. Or worse,

Maybe said Heterodyne has too much of her mother in her

[darkmodepls]

the sad part is that they Are Politically Convenient and Sane by Europan standards.

On the Political side of things, Agatha has the fanatical loyalty of the most powerful state in Europa and the inspirational legacy left behind by her father and uncle. The "vessel for her mother" bit was entirely against her will and got fixed as soon as they had a moment to spare.

And while Tarvek was a voluntary participant in the Storm King Conspiracy, he had been secretly working towards a vaccination for slaver wasps. And his position in the Conspiracy was Heir to the Throne.

Agatha and Tarvek are Excellent choices for spouses if it weren't for Lucrezia and Klaus's associated baggage.

[chaos-has-theories]

I don't know how anyone can read the Castle Heterodyne arc and NOT end up frothing at the mouth about Tarvek/Gil and their time in Paris I NEED TO KNOW I NEED. TO. PLEASE

[queerhummingbird]

I've also decided it would be fun to track the journey of Agatha's "ring" throughout the story.

Sanguine

[ RACE ]

As long as there have been vampires, there has been the issue of interbreeding with nearby human populations. The misbegotten progeny of such a union are sanguine: inhuman mages with a bloody affinity.

Their existence is an unavoidable reality, but this doesn't change the stigma vampires face for siring sanguine children in a society with a strict caste system. In many communities pregnant mothers are even killed if it's thought they might be carrying a sanguine heir. Others breed their sanguine like cattle in order to benefit from their unique talents.

Special Skills:

si vales valeo: blood ties bind the life forces of two people together

just a taste: can detect medical information form blood ingestion

healing touch: manipulate blood in a person's body to heal blood-based injuries

hemophilia: wounds inflicted by blood magic struggle to clot properly

withness for the dead: replay the last moments of a cadaver's life
