#Verde is losing his shit

[massivechildtidalwave]

Danny Phantom as Skull. Au

I’ve seen a lot of ____ as Skull… love it! Never seen a Danny Fenton as Skull however which valid, those are two very separate genres however I really wished we dug into it a bit because there is some story potential.

they both have:

-magic powers that require secrecy due to possible issues. (Ghostly things, Flame) -powers gained by stress and near death experiences (the portal and actual death)

-societies and cultures based around those abilities.(liminals in amity park and mafioso)

while it is a bit of a leap it could explain a lot of skulls backstory and actions in a way I think would be really cool! Especially because we know so little of Skulls past and barely see him. Especially if you do a “amity ran the Felton’s out when everyone became liminal” or a “mass teenager evacuation due to liminal/ ecto plasm contamination”

“amity ran the Fentons out.” Story line

The Fenton experiments with the portal spread ectoplasm around the town causing mutations

(Paulina being able to shift into a dragon, increased speed, strength, smell, the production of cores in the bodies of those particularly contaminated, Wes becoming a modern male Cassandra with his theories etc).

Those who could survive the mutations became liminals, those who couldn’t but had a strong enough Will gained Flames and slowly adapted to the contamination on their own time, and those who couldn’t died and became ghosts. With two thirds of their population ectoplasm contaminated and the last third quickly on its way, Amity Park kicks the Fentons out of town to protect themselves.

maybe the ectoplasm just stayed around town, maybe the GIW tried to contain it but it turns Amity into a town more ghostly then human, with the ability to travel around the world. Jazz is safe at college, Dani is safe traveling somewhere, Amity is much more friendly with ghostly neighbors…. Amity is Danny’s territory, home but now that’s it’s safe. Maybe he could… you know.. travel a little. get all his energy out before coming back to Amity for college… Maybe take a gap year and see the sights without having to fight anyone… that would be pretty nice!

“Mass teenager evacuation”

Ground 0 was Danny’s house, however the Fentons lived in a neighborhood. How many of his neighbors were kids in his school, it’s a medium to slightly large town. There are probably only two high schools.

Ecto contamination happens quickest at certain points in life. at birth before the body realizes that the Ecto isn’t a “extra outside nutrient source”

With teens because their bodies are changing as they age leaving more room for the ecto to wriggle in

near death when the infinite realms has the highest chance at claiming the soul for its collection.

Casper high students start noticing that things are off. Paulina’s nails have started to look like talons and they broke the nail clippers she used. Dash had improved and beat multiple school records many of which shouldn’t have been possible for him without extensive training. Wes”s conspiracy theories have a slightly more power effect in the opposite direction he wants.

they feel more in tune with one another and a little too intimate with each others moods and behaviors.

it doesn’t happen with their families except for very young children. Fenton and Phantom have the same aches and pains after a fight, the geek and the goth always seem slightly more tired and scared during and after ghost fights then Normal People should.

multiple of them have started to bleed green as well as red.

One day the GIW makes an announcement that they are checking everyone for “ghostly influences for the safety of everyone”.

Casper high tried to get their parents to refuse but when that doesn’t work and the GIW is closing in they know the have to leave.

They pretend it’s a quick one night field trip.

📱”hi mom! No you get tested I’ll do it when we get back, Promise! We are really busy packing Lilos things over here, it will be easier for everyone!”

Dart on a dart board-Hello Italy

of course they are going to stick together, many of them had to snatch their own siblings in order to keep them safe, you think young teenagers know how to raise a child on their own? No! They have money! And friends with money! They are taking a few apartment complexes and then the rest of that damn town for themselves. ( ghosts have territories just like clouds, however ghosts can pack theirs away into small doors instead of massive living land. Liminals take up small territories for themselves to satisfy the instinct)

Casper High students are very familiar with the concept of hiding in plain sight. No ghost shenanigans until all the “normals” are away.

Liminal doesn’t just go away, they make their own portal to meet up with their ghostly friends and satisfy the fighting-bonding instinct and to get information on how to make their own Amity Park(because the easy were there first and the name belongs to where they live) where no one questions the ghostly habits and they don’t have to hide.

(Amity Park was Danny’s territory, they knew he wouldn’t take it well being forced to leave it, making it as similar to their previous territory would be the safest option for everyone.)

With as many safe as possible and them all being there to stay, Danny has a lot less that needs to be actively protected. And hey! Jazz left books for everyone about food coping mechanisms and one of them was adventuring. Something about forests and oceans being calming, city activists keeping the mind occupied as you figured things out…

Maybe he would give that traveling circus a chance, it could help his freak show trauma if he spent time around clowns not trying to kill him!

TBH the lack of Real Respect Tsuna and Skull both get makes me wanna see ‘em just… Vanish. They aren’t hurt, or in trouble, but they both end up tired as hell and want like. One (1) year to themselves, without being called shit like useless or lackey or weak. So they fuck off and onto some whimsical journey across the world, probably running into the fair folk or some shit (because Tsuna’s Super Anxiety would make him a damn hard target for them, and I feel like they’d just Vibe with Skull. Immortal and all that).

Meanwhile, everyone back in Namimori is losing. their. shit. Trying to find their two dumbasses, flipping every damn stone over because they’ve Clearly been kidnapped. No One notices the note Tsuna and Skull left, because Skull still isn’t the best at writing and Tsuna’s Super Anxiety kicked in and said that if he wrote it he’d never get his goddamn vacation.

To clarify, this is meant to be (mostly) humorous, but I’m curious to see where you’d go with an idea like this. I just want Skull and Tsuna to travel the world together TBH. Feel like they’d make good brothers.

Oh oh yes. Obviously there'll be humor but, well, it's me and we all know how these things eat my brain and I have to give them some bite so:

Skull isn't really one of Arcobaleno that Tsuna generally spends much time with.

When it comes to the Strongest, the ones Tsuna's found himself spending the most time with has always been Reborn and, surprisingly enough, Fon.

Reborn is around more often than not, content to keep torturing Tsuna even if his official title has shifted from Demon Tutor to Demon Tutor/Advisor.

And Fon's tendency to stop by frequently can be chalked up to I-pin and the fact that, for some reason, the Storm seems to be under the impression that hanging around Tsuna will, somehow, help him grow closer to Hibari.

Which is something that doesn't really make much sense to Tsuna. Even after years of being dragged into and out of various ridiculous shenanigans together, and despite recent Hibari's tendency to commandeer Tsuna's bed or floor or balcony at random times to nap, Tsuna's still not convinced that Hibari actually remembers he exists whenever they're not in the same room together.

And sometimes not even then.

A part of Tsuna also suspects that the "Small Animal" title he carries now might just be Hibari's way of getting around the fact that he doesn't remember Tsuna's actual name anymore.

It is, much like most everything else involving Hibari and Tsuna's thoughts about him, confusing and difficult for Tsuna to make up his mind about.

So, besides Reborn's continued sadism and Fon regularly attempting to use Tsuna as some kind of emotional Switzerland and/or human sacrifice to Hibari, Tsuna tends to see the other Arcobaleno on a bit of a floating schedule.

Viper, as Reborn has taken to insisting everyone outside of the Varia call the Mist, tends to blip in and out every once in a while. Often bringing news from Xanxus and leaving with anything strawberry flavored in Tsuna's house and whatever money he might have in his wallet at the moment.

Lal Mirch and Colonello tend to arrive and depart together, attached at the hip now no matter how much they bicker.

Verde's version of checking in seems to come in the form of sending whatever new robot or nightmare construct he's thought of to attack Tsuna and "gather data".

But Skull?

Tsuna rarely sees Skull.

The Cloud floats in and out of town only rarely and never stays longer than absolutely necessary. Often times he's gone within the hour.

Which is, in Tsuna's opinion, actually kind of a shame.

Because the thing is, Tsuna actually likes Skull.

Oh, he hadn't a few years ago when they'd first come across each other.

No back then Tsuna had hated each new and increasingly ridiculous trap/trick/shenanigan and situation Reborn had managed to push him into.

Skull had just been another irritation on a rapidly increasing list of things Tsuna hadn't wanted to deal with.

But ,,,

Well, it hadn't taken Tsuna long to realize that Skull and he were much more alike than he'd ever thought possible back at the beginning.

And now, with a few years of Reborn and this mafia headache under his belt?

Now Skull's someone that Tsuna wouldn't actually mind seeing more of.

Even though he knows it's not likely to happen.

Mainly because Tsuna's not actually a complete idiot no matter what some people still seem to think.

Tsuna's seen enough interactions between Reborn and Skull to have a pretty good idea about where some of the chips in that relationship fall.

Plus Hyper Intuition is helpful for more than just life-or-death battles these days even if Tsuna's not made that fact as openly obvious as he might once have.

It's yet another area in which Tsuna's found he can sympathize with Skull.

Because Tsuna also has a hyper-violent sadist he half wishes he could care less about sometimes.

Which is why Tsuna's so surprised to see a familiar pair of leather-clad legs dangling over the edge of the roof when he steps out onto his balcony, desperate to escape the screaming and general chaos that has once again taken over his house.

Tsuna goes to call out only for that familiar flare of warning heat to snap his mouth closed.

Instead Tsuna does something that he wouldn't have been able to a few short years ago.

He reaches up, grabs the edge of his roof in one hand, and pulls himself up onto the tiles above him.

When he's kneeling on the roof a few seconds later Tsuna finds himself glad that he didn't make too much noise, glad that he didn't draw any attention to Skull.

Because Skull's currently laid out on Tsuna's roof, legs dangling over the side but arms pillowed behind his head, helmet settled at his hip and eyes trained on the night sky and face almost eerily blank.

It is, Tsuna can't help but think, the quietest he's ever seen Skull.

It's honestly a little unsettling.

But, worst of all somehow in Tsuna's opinion, is the fact that Skull looks ,,, tired.

He doesn't even bother to greet Tsuna beyond flicking those vibrant violet eyes in his direction before going back to his star gazing.

To Tsuna, Skull has never looked more like everything he was taught a Cloud is supposed to be than in this moment.

Cold.

Illusive.

Bound to drift away.

The thought sends a shiver of premonition down Tsuna's spine.

Tsuna finds himself laying down on the roof beside him, legs dangling over the edge and arms folded behind his head.

Their elbows are just barely brushing.

And all the while a flickering whisper in the back of Tsuna's mind sings.

"I'm tired," Tsuna finds himself saying some silent drawn-out minutes later.

A beat of silence.

"Yeah," Skull sighs, voice lower and smoother than Tsuna has ever heard it before, "me too."

"I," Tsuna pauses, swallows, feels his Intuition surge and sharpen, "I love my friends and I know they care too but sometimes I just ,,,"

Tsuna trails off because he knows that Skull understands without him ever having to finish.

"Wish you could go to sleep and wake up on the opposite end of the world so that maybe you could get some rest and peace before they inevitably find you again?" Skull offers.

"Yes," The answer practically bursts out of Tsuna.

Another beat of silence.

"I've got an airship," Skull announces.

Tsuna hears it for the offer it is.

"They'd find us," Tsuna points out softly, twisting just a bit so he's looking Skull in the face. "They'd hunt us down and drag us both back."

The smirk Skull sends him in return is far darker and slyer than any expression Tsuna's ever seen on his face before.

"Oh, malysh nebo," Skull practically purrs, "they could certainly try."

Another one of the someone reincarnated as Skull au

Except it's not just one individual it's the whole Black Bulls squad (and maybe even extra people)

Just imagine the Comedy™ of the Arco being Across and then we pull into Skull's head and start listening to every member of the bulls saying something at the same time with no one fronting .

Because yes they change who is on front a lot . Even if Asta , Finral , Vanessa , Charmy and Nacht front the most , and Zora if he is feeling vindictive .

And I can just imagen that every Arco has their favorite person for fronting :

Luce - Vanessa and Asta

Reborn - doesn't sticky have a favorite but prefers Asta and Noelle the most because of how he can teze them

Fon - Met Nacht once(while the bulls were new to the whole one body thing) and decided this is gonna be his personality from now on while everyone else is depressing because there is another one now

Viper - despite being amused and even somewhat friendly to Zora , Vanessa and Nacht actually has Charmy as their favorite . They are also the only one who knows and suspected that the Arco's Cloud is actually multiple people in one body (is not sure if it was a mist thing gone wrong , born with multiple souls or if Skull has multiple personalities)

Lal - can't decide between Luck and Magna (If Mereoleona is not here that is)

Collonelo - the favorite is Luck

Verde - Would be Zora if it wasn't for the facts a) Zora is fully on having a prank war with him and b) Verde is so prideful that he won't recognize Zora as someone of his level

Neither the Arco nor the mafia knew that Skull was actually multiple people until one fateful dinner bal in the Vongola mansion when the topic of cloud's being able to clone themselves came up . And immediately Skull asks very enthusiastically how to do it and gets shown how to do it .

At which point the black bulls (more specifically Gauche as he has experience in how to make clones) make a clone for each person of them and that is when shit hit the fan .

Finral and Vanessa immediately started raiding the cellar for wine .

Nacht started to insult everyone other than the children (aka Tsuna , Enma , Lambo , Ippin and Futa) left , right , up and down . In the background Fon is on the verge of tears because he recognized this smile that is his idol . While everyone else is deeply terrified .

Charmy is starting a raid on the kitchen .

Asta and Collonelo are having a full on screaming match while fighting . Bonus points if Yuno , Libei and Lal are looking at them cheering on

Zora continues being a menace to Verde .

Noelle raiding the nearest armory so she can kill Reborn for what he has said for her family .

Luck and Magna fighting and drawing people in the fight . Gray is trying to stop them while Gauche is cheering them on .

Nero is looking at this and recording it for later .

Gordon and Henry are babysitting Tsuna and the rest of the kids .

And at some point Yami (with a cigarette in his mouth as always) punches the nearest wall while telling them to shut up and to stop destroying things , only for the wall he punched to crumble . Of course that causes the true shinanagans to start .

While the Black Bulls are having their normal (for them) life everyone else is losing their mind because the Arcobaleno Cloud Skull just cloned himself and now there are like a dozen clones of him and all with their own personality and different flame at that . Serious what the fuck?!?

While all of this is going on Viper is having a poker face of innocence while giggling on the inside .

[dark-elf-writes]

Oh god the whole family rolling in is amazing. Them training Harry is epic to. But imagine them grabbing all of Harry’s bonds to cause ‘it’s time to get them quality’.

Harry walks into the first task ready to take anything on. He knows uncle Xanxus will kill him if he doesn’t do a good show.

I assume this also means the Acrobaleno. Imagine Verde who is a good teacher cause he wants the passion for Science to pass on going ham on Snape. Cause that’s not how you teach?!

Harry pulls the hot rain and doesn’t even flinch just nodding to himself and putting the little mini on a shelf with his things so he can keep preparing. Cedric eventually asks how he’s doing and Harry just kinda laughs like “Uncle Xanxus said if I get last place I have to train with him and between the two of them I think the Horntail is the lesser evil.” The other three all realize that this little happily smiling fourteen year old might actually be scarier than the dragons they’re about to face.

Skull is frankly losing his shit seeing Harry outfly a dragon and wants to learn how to do that immediately.

God give Verde a weekend and the right books and he could teach potions better than Snape ever could. Something that Snape is incredibly upset about frankly and he only makes the mistake of trying to take that anger out on Harry once.

Will You Be Redesigning The Other Three Los Campeons?

I’ll answer these both at the same time!

1. I do want to, but like I don’t have as clear an idea for Fly, Pro and Rayo. (I do have a rule 63 design for Pro though because I think it’d be funny) Rayo’s might be out in the next…five months??? Who knows.

2. Just Hcs because you already know my fave (ik you send that ask to my main. A lot of folks don’t know it’s the same person lol)

LETS START WITH JR

Man does not sleep, because sleep is for the weak and he is always on that grind 💪 Because of this his ability to make choices is hindered (which is the only possible reason he chose not to let Sorpresa join the team I say jokingly) and it also gives him a shorter fuse, as if it wasn’t short enough.

He’s already got some anger issues from his father, but most of his fight outside of the ring are just gas so he’ll rarely start a physical fight.

Still trying his best to outgrow his father’s shadow, but his team is worried it’ll all go to his head instead. He is one to brag whenever things really go his way so the next step in his hero’s journey has better be humility

In his first match with Rayo he got his elbow broken and that was how Rayo got thrown out of his first club and why I draw Jr with a brace.

Nepo baby, like big time. He’s a rich kid and they all know it, but he tries not to flaunt his wealth. His father’s influence however…

Grew up around the ring and knew “Tío Blanco y Verde” before his father left that team. Hadn’t seen them in a long time, which is why he didn’t recognize either of their voices.

Used to love his fathers old movies until he realized just how big a legend he had to live up to, now it just makes him feel sick when he sees them knowing his dad was only a few years older than he was then when they were made and he had only just secured a main event. Not so fun feeling like you’ve fallen behind.

Refuses to touch alcohol or drugs of any kind so he doesn’t fuck up his body. His father started losing his shape when he started drinking more and smoking cigars, so he’s seen the road gone down before.

He’s gonna start wearing contacts eventually so he can play into his Dragon roll more.

Up next the grappling goth himself, Rayo X!

He is the second shortest.

This isn’t even a hc, I just wanted to show you their hight comparisons

He is not as physically strong as the others because he put more of his stats into agility and precision. Pressure points and the ability to use his opponents weight against them is key, but he’s still stronger than your average cat. Guy can throw a fully grown man over his head, what do you expect?

Autistic. HEAR ME OUT! Doesn’t like being touched by anyone, the only one who wrestles in gloves, hangs out in a quiet coffin and works better in the dark. “But that’s no-“ Just trust me bro.

He’s a little limp wristed, but you know. Happens to the best of us.

His character is a sullen goth who’s like this serious guy and kinda scary, but out of character he’s a little shit emo kid who’s starting to dwindle into scene.

Has an older brother, also cannon now I think, and isn’t really on the best terms with him. Still he got on great with his mother and his father used to take him to work and he’d hide in the coffins to try and scare his dad.

Isn’t intentionally rude, but does come off that way pretty easily so he just kinda ran with that when making a character. Because of this he dances on the edge between técnico and rudo, but still leans more towards face because he likes coming across as a hero.

When he was banned from every promotion and couldn’t find a job he ended up doing a few death matches. You’ll find a lot of scars under all that gear and he’ll no longer use thumb tacks if he can avoid it.

Mr Professional

Has a $tan Pines-ass backstory with him getting kicked out of his own home when he was young and having his kid sister run away so she could stick with himself

Where am I getting this?

I just like the drama I guess :)

Big personality in the ring, but is kinda timid outside of it. A little shy, but still good at talking with folks. He’s still more a party dog type of guy

I think he’d collect sweaters, sense were already ripping off the Pines family here, and tea, because once again this guy is pretty chill.

[tbh a masked wrestler would fit right into gravity fa//s if I’m being real)

Has a cat that he had to leave with his sister when he moved to Mexico and when he calls her he makes her turn on face time so she can talk to it DX

Still looking for a house and might end up moving in with Fly now that Sorpresa has moved out.

Knew Fly for a while before moving away and knew Sorpresa too, but never knew she worked as his valet because he thought she was his daughter.

If any of his team mates find themselves in a fight she will be the one to end it.

Cross dressing cowboy? Why not. He brought it with him to Mexico for some reason 😭

Tsetse Fly!

Met Sorpresa’s aunt first when he was teamed with her for a comedy act which neither of them wanted to be a part of. They ended up whipping their opponents so hard they were belt holders for a month before Sorpresa’s aunt was scouted by a woman’s wrestling promotion. She was going to stay with Fly, but he told her to take her chance when she had one so she moved on. To Fly’s surprise she kept in touch and she ended up steering her towards her sister so they could wrestle together instead.

He actually got really close with the Sorpresa family, so much so that he’s Sorpresa’s god father.

This man is a big pipe smoker. He used to sit outside, smoke and just stare at the clouds. When Sorpresa was younger she’s sit on the floor next to him and bug him till he taught her some of his moves.

He’s a ladies man, again cannon but you know, and is dating one of his ring girls. (I have Hcs for them too, but no names 😔) but it’s an open relationship because you can’t clip this fly’s wings XD

Because of his dwarfism he does have some health complications with his bone structure and his breathing, so he takes the great precautions of not giving a shit and it’s working apparently because he’s doing fine enough.

He’s not the step dad he’s the dad that stepped up🫡 Helped raise Sorpresa during her preteens to teenage years by “babysitting” (sneaking her into matches and buying her first beers) while her mother was busy and became her legal guardian the last few months before she turned 18. He was planning on finding her a job and a place to stay before moving up to the states but she insisted on coming with him and here they are! She did get tired of living with him though.

Did not realise he became a dad until everyone started calling Sorpresa his daughter.

And now the moment you’ve all been waiting for. The trickster of torture, the shocker of slaughter, the kick back of calamity

¡SORPRESA!

We have found the youngest! She has been training since she was popped out. Like this girl learned how to do a headlock before she could crawl and was beating her parents without them going easy on her when she was in her teens. She’s been ready to carry on her family’s legacy for a long time now.

If you’ve been around for a while you know what Hc I usually give my faves 😌

🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥🇿🇦💥

Afro Latina! Her mother is from Mexico and her father was from South Africa (Mzansi <3) but her father died when she was little so there’s not much to be said on him from her pov. She also doesn’t connect to her South African roots as much sense no one was there to help her learn them. (She’s Xhosa just in case you wanted to know)

There’s gonna be a great big lull between her helping to save a village of monsters and finding someone to sign her so, with some help from Rayo, she joins death matches. She was pretty good at both letting her nerves get the better of her, but it definitely took some getting used to. However she found herself pretty handy with a chain and if that failed she had her trusty bat! You’ll find her avoiding barbed wire at all costs tho 😞

She dropped out of high school at 16 to focus on wrestling and is very worried that she made the wrong choice

Her mother is in jail!

I think it would be funny if her cousins were punctuation themed. Like one of them was called like (google translate Spanish) “Pregunta?” And had a question mark on her head and so on. I think it’d be funny.

Speaking of cousins! She’s cousins with Ricochet! Mama Maniaca is one of her relatives that grew too far apart to wear her family mask.

Sorpresa has no idea what she’s doing but she’s doing it really well. She might not always be prepared for a situation, but she is great at coming up with solutions. You could even say this is the greatest plaaan-er. She’s quick on her feat and can roll with the punches easy.

Speaking of being quick, she is the fastest on the team, which was decided when she finally managed to take Rayo down lol.

Speaking or Rayo, tag team partners for life right there, hell she’s moving in with him with him! That’s her favourite person who isn’t family or dating. In other words, her best friend!

She and Jr had an on again off again relationship for a while until she finally sat him down and told him that unless it was going somewhere she wasn’t interested in all that drama. He stepped the fuck up after that.

She’s gonna usurp the role of leadership from Jr eventually. I can feel it in my knees. Either that or co- leaders. Rayo is only a little salty about it.

She is actually friends with the other valets. They would sneak her drinks because she was too young to buy them in the states (oh but back home it’s FINE! America’s drinking age is so dumb WHAT THW FUCK)

Despite knowing Pro for a few years they weren’t all that close, but now that they’ve started working together she’s enjoying his company a lot more than she thought.

The big part of her character is to be surprising, so whenever she’s in the ring she’ll do a lot of back stabbing. Her and her family are all rudos originally, but she’ll play técnico when she’s teaming. Being bad is just more fun.

Never let them know your next move.

If she was ever teamed with Fly she would have played big time into the comedy aspect to take the attention off Fly. We all know how he reacts when someone makes fun of him.

Here when she was younger she really wanted to be a dancer and she almost went down that route, until she met Fly and he showed her how wrestling was just like a more dangerous form of dance and she was hooked. Still enjoys dancing, going to a dance studio is still one of her favourite date spots.

Most of her strength comes from her core, so she’s good at staying stable in a fight, but she started strength training after the events of the movie to help her keep up with her team.

In one of her first matches she fought a woman who glued broken glass to the bottom of her boots and was very lucky not to lose an eye when she got kicked in the side of the head. Shes got some pretty wicked scars on the right side of her face now, but they’re hidden well enough under her mask. You can just see the one near her eye if it’s shits enough. (I haven’t draw it yet, so you won’t see it in my art 😔)

Despite being a really good wrestler she is the one with the most left to learn, but she’s getting there.

I have so many more but this post has gotten long enough. Thank you so much for the ask <3

Goodnight Story #9

[Plain Text: "Goodnight Story #9" bigger and cursive /end pt]

Today was supposed to be a normal, peaceful day for Verde. Unfortunately, Skull, Reborn and Fon somehow ended up bored. So Verde has some slightly annoying company.

Skull is still inspecting Verde's forging oven, naively crawling halfway inside it, unnecessarily fascinated with the way it's set up. Of course Reborn pushes the door shut, making Skull squawk in surprise, before addressing Verde much too nonchalantly. "What are you drawing?"

Verde doesn't look up from his work, calmly continuing to sketch, even as Fon hovers over his shoulder, curiously watching him work. Verde just barely remembers Reborn likes to have his questions answered. "Schematics."

Fon hums inquisitively, shaking his head just a tiny bit. He would not be able to read half of the Italian Verde used in this schematic, so his confusion is understandable. "No... No that's a human arm."

Verde doesn't sigh, but he wants to. Fon is just curious and wants to learn, his lack of a formal education is not his fault. So Verde educates him, his tone gentle. "Prosthesis, Fon. I'm designing a prosthetic arm."

Fon hums softly again, leaning just a bit closer. Verde can feel the body-heat rolling off of him now. The awe in Fon's voice is entirely genuine. "That's pretty cool. It looks... So life-like."

Of course, such a comment draws Reborn near and that man knows no personal space. Verde just huffs when Reborn drapes his weight over his shoulder, snuggling close shamelessly and taking a look himself. The momentary pause that follows really says more than enough, but Reborn voices his opinion anyways. "Are you... Sketching from memory?"

Verde hums faintly in acknowledgement, adjusting himself under Reborn's weight and once again losing himself to focus just a little. After a minute, Fon's weight is a little added surprise, but Verde honestly doesn't mind. At least they're resting on both of his shoulders now and distributing their weight more evenly.

Skull speaks up then, no longer in the Forge, instead he's admiring Verde's indoor garden. He's gently cupped his hands around a still-green orange, fascinated and endeared. "I still can't believe you build all this yourself."

This, of course, meaning the highly sophisticated watering and lighting systems that support Verde's little garden. That was one of his first private projects Verde was able to fund. It's been years since then. "I can build anything. All I need are materials and time."

Of course, Reborn has to be a little shit, sounding entirely too amused as he reminds Verde. "And money."

Verde promptly shakes Reborn and Fon off of his shoulders, frowning to himself. That reminder was unhelpful and uncalled for. Verde quickly resolves to ignore them starting now-

But Reborn sighs, over-exaggerated and impatient. You can practically hear the eyeroll and Verde turns to him, the words to tell him off already on the tip of his tongue. But...

Reborn is holding an envelope, thick with whatever is inside it. He sounds smugly amused again. "Let me finish. You need money for your projects."

Reborn offers the envelope to Verde, something distinctly fond in the look in his eyes. Fon and Skull are nearby too, looking adorably excited now. Somehow Reborn still sounds like he's teasing him. "This is for you. Happy Valentine's, you nerd."

Verde blinks rapidly, briefly glancing toward his calender, before accepting the envelope, entirely suspiscious. Fon and Skull look almost too excited. From that alone, Verde can deduce that this present was probably some kind of group effort.

Verde picks the envelope open, raising his eyebrows in surprise when he unearths an actual stack of bills. By the looks of it alone, this is at least 30.000 Euro. This might just be enough to finish Verde's next 4 projects!

Verde looks at his idiots again, his chest oddly warm, even as his voice comes out unsure and stern. "Why?"

Skull speaks up this time, fidgeting his hands together, shifting around. He's blushing, the way he does when he thinks he's in trouble. "Actually... It was Viper's idea. Cause I kept going on about... Feeling bad for breaking your glass stuff..."

Oh, yes. Months ago, when Skull was in a particularly helpful mood, he'd dropped a whole box of glassware. Several beakers, numerous vials and even some syringes and droppers where lost. But nothing particularly important was broken. Verde had told him it was fine. He'd even outright forgiven him after Skull brought him some new glassware from who knows where.

So this is just silly-

Fon gently brushes his knuckles over Verde's cheeks, pulling him out of his thoughts entirely and giving him a very warm smile. "Skull and Viper came up with the idea because of that incident. But it's supposed to be a gift first and foremost."

Reborn is standing back a bit now, his arms loosely crossed, a subtle indication he is not entirely secure with the vulnerability he is about to present. Verde sometimes wonders if Reborn is aware of his own tells actually. "We know how much you love your projects."

Skull and Fon nod their agreement and Verde blinks down at the stack of cash again. He won't reject this, cause that would be quite idiotic, but... It feels wrong to accept this much without somehow returning the favor. So, after just a moment of thought, Verde offers the one thing he can give freely. ".... Thank you very much. May I hug you?"

Skull almost chirps like a bird, nodding enthusiastically and bouncing in place. He is in Verde's arms before Verde has even fully stood up out of his seat.

Fon chuckles at Skull's eagerness, but he too nods, flushing faintly. He moves more slowly, careful to control his strength when he cuddles into Verde's embrace next to Skull.

They are both so tiny in Verde's arms, their cheeks barely rest comfortably against his shoulders. Verde makes sure to give both of them a good squeeze, placing two tiny kisses on top of their hair, before looking at the last person that has earned a hug today.

Reborn is blushing surprisingly brightly, his arms crossed just a bit tighter and he'd averted his eyes for just a moment. Verde catches his eyes when he looks at them again. Verde wordlessly gestures that Reborn can absolutely join this hug, but Reborn hesitates.

So Verde gently pats Skull's back and presses light on Fon's shoulder, slowly breaking their embrace, so both of his arms are free to accommodate Reborn. He offers the hug again, silently. And the hesitation completely leaves Reborn.

Reborn is a bit taller than Fon and Skull. He can rest his chin on Verde's shoulder quite comfortably, but he also hugs like a vice. If Verde hadn't preemptively reinforced his skin with just a touch of lightning, he might've gotten a bruise from that tight squeeze.

Instead, Verde is perfectly content like this, cuddling Reborn closer for a moment, before moving to put a kiss on the man's head. That accursed fedora gets in his way though, which very briefly gives Reborn a case of the giggles. Then Reborn tips his hat back and goes up on his tiptoes, placing the gentlest of kisses on both of Verde's cheeks.

And just like that, Reborn breaks the hug and tugs his fedora back down again to cover his expression. He's blushing and smiling and immediately turns to leave the room, because that was probably more than enough vulnerability for him, for the rest of the month.

Verde will also feel very warm and loved for about a month at least. Especially since Fon and Skull overcome their shyness and bashfully request another hug.

And it's only been a few weeks at most since the last time Verde felt this Treasured and Beloved!

.... Verde knows he's earned this affection. They all did.

Lab Rat

————Warning: Mention of needles and medical equipment————

After a while I lose track of how many needles, how many blood samples, how many food trays...but not how many rotations I've been here. 15 to be exact, 15 little slash marks I've made in the wall so I don't lose track...I have finally come to terms with my situation and decided that it's worth keeping myself alive and in good shape - if not for me - for Ad'ika... for both of them really... Nala Se has taken over from the other scientist and she's much quieter than an I've been used to - must be the other one couldn't handle my sense of humor.

Today I'm in the lab for more blood tests and I guess this time they want something more but Nala Se wouldn't tell me what. "How's Omega? Is she alright." Nala Se sighs "Omega is fine. Now, I'm going to take another blood sample and then we will move on." "What exactly are they looking for? Can't they just use any other clone?" "You present a rare opportunity for them." "I've always wanted to be someone's lab rat..." Nala Se takes the blood sample and sticks it into some machine and looks at the screen before typing something in. I notice one of my restrains isn't quite as tight as it should be. "You're low on vitamins that are crucial for development. I am going to give you something to help with that." She heads over to a cabinet and pulls maker knows what out and put it into another needle. I roll my eyes "Another needle...It's what I've always wanted." Just as I wiggle my wrist free she heads my way and I pray to Maker she doesn't notice. She injects whatever it is into my arm before moving on to the next test. "So now what are you going to do?" She doesn't respond to me "What is it?" I ask starting to panic. My heart rate monitor starts to increase. "Amniotic fluid can tell us much about the fetus considering how small it is..." "Woah woah woah...Pare!? (Wait?) How are you going to get that?" I ask not really wanting to know the answer. Nala Se shows me a very large needle and the heart rate monitor spikes. "You need to relax...this is very delicate—" "Oh no, no, no, no" using my free arm, I undo the buckle on my other one. I roll off the table - opposite to Nala Se - and tip it over so I'm behind it. Frantically I look around for a weapon of any kind but come up empty handed. The door slides open and I hear multiple sets of heavy boots enter the room. "Osik (shit) this is really bad..." Theres banging on the glass window above. It grabs my attention and I stop looking up "Omega?" The next thing I know there's 4 stormtroopers surrounding me "Stop, this won't end well for you". I smirk and immediately put my arms in the air as surrender. One of the troopers approaches and as he does, I take his blaster while using him as a shield. The other 3 troopers shoot stun bolts at him and in the mean time I'm able to stun one of them. By the time they realize what's happened, I stun another and dodge the last one. Getting behind him, I use the blaster to put him in a choke hold until he's unconscious. Letting go I turn my blaster to fire regular bolts and point it at Nala Se "Don't move." The doors slide open again and this time a dozen more stormtroopers enter the room. "Now, now. I thought you were smarter..." Hemlock pushes his way through all of them to the front. My arm starts to shake and sweat is forming on my brow. I really can't get out of this alone... "Put the blaster down...there's no need for this...you aren't getting out of here..." Slowly I lower the blaster and drop it to the floor. "Kick it over here." I roll my eyes and do as I'm told. Hemlock nods at one of the stormtroopers. "On your knees. Hands on your head." I do as I'm told and the trooper cuffs me. "Very good" Hemlock says in a way that makes my stomach churn. He walks over to one of the med cabinets, grabbing a syringe and a bottle. Making his way over to me, he draws up whatever is in the bottle "Now...where were we? Oh yes." I struggle against the grip of the stormtroopers but Hemlock injects me with the syringe and everything goes black.

I come to back in my room on my bed. Lifting my shirt to inspect the area on my stomach that hurts, I see a small bacta patch. Sighing I lay back down and curl into a ball. Tears stream down my face in defeat. Two weeks since Tech, two weeks since I've seen Hunter, just under two weeks since I've seen Omega...two weeks I've been alone...again...but this time its not by choice...I haven't lost faith in the fact that Wrecker, Echo, and Hunter will find us...I'm just losing faith in how soon that will be...another food tray and another red light. I sit there in the dim red glow and eat my dinner before crawling into bed. Unfortunately I don't sleep much because by the time I fall asleep...I see the look in Tech's eyes as he disappears into the fog...Omega, after the rail car accident...the look of defeat on Hunter's face back in Cid's parlor...and sometimes I can't tell if I'm dreaming or being hauled back off to the lab...

————

At this point there's 25 slash marks on the wall but I stopped adding to it a few days ago. I don't even fight back when they come to get me because that either ends in being stunned or drugged. Any smart remark I would have has been replaced by silence. Nala Se updates me on the growth of my baby - probably more for her and everyone else in the room rather than me - and I want to be happy but I feel like the life has been sucked from me. I'm sore from being poked all the time and it feels like I'm a circus act on display. Hemlock even periodically checks in and the hate I have for that man...don't even get my started...I stare at the ceiling in the med bay while Nala Se quietly goes about her business today. Not a word from her which is odd but I don't bother to ask. I don't much care anymore...she moves around me and does her usual routine in silence. The droid assisting her uses its scanner to get images inside. She says something to it but I wasn't listening. The droid touches my lower stomach with something cold and a loud noise I can only describe like a fast paced swishing can be heard. It confuses me for a moment because the monitor I'm hooked to is still beeping but much slower. Nala Se leans her long skinny neck over me "I thought you might like to hear the heart beat. It is still quite early but at this stage the heart begins to beat on its own." I close my eyes while tears slide down my cheeks, this should be a happy moment shared between Hunter and I...not here with a Kaminoan in an Imperial base...what do they care...She continues her work quietly and I let my brain wander to a much happier place. Pabu to be exact...some of the late nights and early mornings Hunter and I had together or some of my Mando'a lessons with Omega, are the only things that keeps me sane.

When the commandos come to get me this time, there are fewer of them and more stormtroopers. Those poor clones...I don't think I want to know what's being done to them...suddenly I notice we aren't headed towards my room, but a much brighter section of the base. "Where are we going?" No response. I shouldn't be surprised a this point...they never respond to me. Next thing I know I'm being tossed into a room much nicer than mine. The walls are still grey, but the bed is a little bigger, theres a window, and an actual room for the fresher. I turn to ask what's going on the door is slammed in my face. Running a hand down my face, I head for the bed and lay facing the wall. After a few moments the door opens and I hear small footsteps approaching. "Raven?" I small familiar voice asks. I roll over and see Omega standing there in shock. "Om'ika? (Little Omega/daughter- essentially)" She races over, throwing herself on the bed and wrapping her arms around me. "You're here! You're really here!" "Whats going on?" I ask her confused. "Doctor Emerie said she recommended they bring you here to stay with me so we can be together!" I hug Omega back and cry but this time tears of relief "I'm so happy to see you Omega. I've missed you..." She pulls away for a second, "How is Vod'ika (Little brother or sister)? I hope it's okay that I call them that because we don't know whether its a boy or girl..." She rambles like its been on her mind for sometime. I sigh sadly, "Alright I guess...I got to hear their heart beat today." Omega look at me surprised, "I was doing research...I thought it was after 5 weeks that you can hear....oh..." she thinks out loud. "How long as it been?" "I think 8 weeks...I lost track of how long we've been here..." she looks at me wide eyed. I sigh and pick at my fingernails. "I miss them too..." she says sadly.

————

It's been weeks and nothing...no information on the exact location of Hemlock's base...I sit in the cockpit of the Marauder to try to quiet my senses. Ever since that day...I can't sleep, can't eat...I can't even think about anything else. Omega and Raven are out there somewhere and they need our help...I'm also still trying to wrap my head around the fact that Raven is pregnant...with my child...I don't know any clone who had kids...we should be on Pabu, making a new life for ourselves and...the sound of the ramp lowering pulls me from my thoughts. "Hunter?" I don't move or answer but I know it's Echo. He sits down next to me "Rex is back and he's brought a friend..." Now he's got my attention.

I follow Echo out of the Marauder to the old Clone War's AT-TE walker we are using as a 'base'. Rex is there with Gregor, they both nod at me when I enter. There's a Commander who I do not recognize in grey and white plastoid. "Commander Wolffe this is Sargent Hunter from Clone Force 99, Sargent Hunter this is Commander Wolffe." We shake hands. "Echo filled us in...I'm sorry Hunter...we will do whatever we can to help" Rex tells me. I nod my thanks, "Saw Gerrera...he was there and might know something. Got any ideas how to find him?" Rex nods at Gregor who goes over to one of the computers and begins typing, "We don't exactly know where he is... but we do know how to contact him!" Wolffe chimes in "Actually...I think I can help with that..." he heads over to the Navi computer and begins typing.

————

Omega catches me up on everything that she had learned since we have arrived here. The female scientist who claimed to be Omega's sister is Doctor Emerie Karr who happens to be a clone. She, I guess took over the program after Crosshair killed the other scientist - Go Crosshair, I don't even know him but I already like him. However, there are still a lot of holes..."Ni ceta (I'm sorry) but how exactly do you know all this?" "Emerie told me..." "Are you sure we can trust her?" "I don't know but so far that all checks out. I mean why else would we be here? She also seems to be protecting the clones. That's why Hemlock pulled her from you. She didn't want to put you in harms way so he pulled her and Nala Se took her place." I think it over for a moment - Doctor Emerie never really did anything other than take my blood for the longest time...but Nala Se has done way worse.... - "Okay, but what exactly am are they looking for?" "I'm not really sure....Emerie wouldn't tell me" She shrugs. "Alright, but there's still a lot of gaps...Like where exactly are we? Also, what about Crosshair? Have you seen or heard from him? I mean the last time I saw him he was unconscious, strapped to a table." She sighs sadly "I don't know where we are...Emerie wouldn't tell me and no, I haven't seen Crosshair...they won't let me near him..." she thinks for a moment before perking up "but I might be able to convince Doctor Emerie to get a message to him." "I don't know Om'ika, I'm still not sure if we can trust her..." "What choice do we have? We're stuck here. It can't get much worse..." "Dead...dead would be worse...we need to be careful so Hemlock doesn't catch wind of anything...but you're right we have to try."

We settle on the message we want to get to Crosshair, something in code that only someone with the Batch would understand. Theres a pounding on the door and trays are brought in as usual. With a new feeling of hope we both eat together and get around for bed. I crawl into bed first and Omega crawls in next to me. "You know, I might not be Vod'ika's real sister...but I feel like it." I smile to myself "Omega as far as I'm concerned you are ori'vod (big sister). Technically you do share DNA with Jango so that makes you siblings." She laughs "I didn't think about it that way. Wait...that means he or she will have so many uncles...." I laugh "Maker, too many to count." She pauses and looks sad "Do you think we will go back to Pabu after..." "I'm not sure honestly...I hope so...we need to lay low. I think we've been in the line of fire non-stop for a little too long." She nods her agreement and pulls the blanket up over her shoulders "Goodnight Raven." "Goodnight Om'ika." Not long after, Omega is sound asleep under the covers next to me. Sleep takes sometime to find me...I lay there staring at the ceiling, running over scenarios in my head...everything is different now...we have to go back to Pabu...I won't let anything more happen to our aliit (clan)...our family...we get Crosshair and get out...Maker I miss Hunter...he will be such a great Buir (father) to our Ad'ika (little child). I never even got to tell him I loved him...

Heyy! Hope you have/had a good day/night!

I was wondering. If you could take either Aemond or Daemon on a day out to see the sights in your locality, who would you take?

(Totally NOT inspired by the fact that I happened across the history section of the library today and how my mind immediately went to the one-eyed babygirl who studies history and philosophy)

I am having a good day so far, thank you, aside from the fact that my dog decided to rotisserie chicken herself in a huge muddy puddle while out on her walk earlier, and both myself and my entire bathroom got dirty trying to get her clean 😬 Hope you are doing okay!

Ooohhh, this is fun!

Okay, so if I wanted to torture them:

Daemon - take him to the local Primark on a Saturday afternoon and leave him there. I’m not sure how familiar non UK people are with Primark but it’s a discount clothing store chain. Everything is cheap because it’s made in sweatshops, they are built like labyrinths with several floors and are always, always heinously busy. If you’re short on patience then they are not the place to go. I’d get lots of amusement in watching Daemon get frustrated trying to leave and waiting to see how long it takes for him to lose his shit (not long I’d imagine)

Aemond - I’d take him to Chipotle. I don’t think he’s ever tasted seasoning or spice in his life, watching him meltdown over salsa verde would make me absolutely die of laughter.

If I wanted them to have an actual nice time:

Daemon - we’d go day drinking. My town has heaps of cocktail bars and places that do bottomless brunch, I think he’d love it. We see small glimpses of wine drunk Daemon in HotD, I think piña colada drunk Daemon would be a riot.

Aemond - I’d take him to the local Vue to see a horror movie. I think the big screen would blow his mind and sitting somewhere in the dark where you aren’t allowed to talk would be right up his alley.

[hopeswriting]

i think the point about how it's a common practice to set up a meeting with an antagonist by first introducing their minions is a solid argument, you're right! especially when you think about how colonnello and skull made full appearances when they were first introduced like you said. because why wasn't verde there to show up after his assassins were caught and try something else to finish the job? (well, i guess one argument would be that it isn't the smartest move for one, and what's the point to hire assassins but still go with them and risk getting caught with them too lol. especially when verde's the smartest person in the world.) skull was first introduced as an antagonist too, and he still got to make a full appearance immediately.

actually now that i think about it, none of the other arcos are introduced through that set up method? well, uni kinda was, as when we first see her we only know she's the second boss of millefiore even when she's an arco too, which was evident from the pacifier around her neck, and only later with gamma's flashback we realize she's actually one of the good guys. and fon maybe kinda was too? i don't remember if we learn immediately that fon's i-pin's master, if reborn points it out or something. i think in the anime he does, but i'm not sure for the manga. either way, none of the other arcos are set up in a clear antagonistic way like verde was, not even skull who was targeting mafia land and had no idea tsuna was there, while verde's target was tsuna, the protagonist. (also of course viper was an antagonist to tsuna too, but that happened at the same time as they were introduced to us. the fact they were an arco too was set up to be a plot twist, but their antagonistic-ness wasn't, unlike the way it seems to have been planned to be for verde.)

and then amano made him one of the three people who created the box weapons. and okay, it doesn't necessarily antagonize him further because you can't just blame scientists for the way other people use their inventions (unless of course said inventions were expressly invented with a nefarious purpose to them, and for sure the box weapons didn't help lower the deaths and violence and thirst for ever more power in the mafia lol, but also their use still depends on the people who use them), but learning about that fact amidst the future arc certainly didn't help seeing it in a neutral way, let alone a good one. especially when it's said they were selling them to the mafia as weapons dealers to fund their researches of them (or was it only one or the two others scientists who were said to have done that?). and then amano makes a point of showing us reborn asking him if he could be trusted to send them back to the past without trying anything in the process.

and wow, when you put all this back to back like this, it's really evident amano was writing him in a completely different way right until the rainbow arc, huh. very interesting.

and it's so galaxy brained of you to link that to the assassinations of mafia bosses fae, holy shit. which does really feel like something that was planned to become a proper plotline!! okay so a little correction here, but we actually don't know how long ago before canon nono's three sons were killed. all we know is that they died in the eight years xanxus was frozen. and i mean, all three of them dying in eight years? like, i'm no specialist on mafia deaths statistics lol, but it looks suspiciously quick. especially when they were the vongola heirs, so their security would have been top-notch. and they'd likely have had increased it after xanxus' attempted coup, as to literally everyone but nono who was the only one who knew xanxus would have never been able to become vongola decimo anyway, him attempted a coup and failing it was also vongola losing one of its heirs. also his three sons dying in the eight years xanxus was frozen? almost like the aftermath of xanxus' coup would have left vongola weakened and would have been the most opportune moment to go after another heir. and then of course as they kept succeeding, weakening vongola further, despite how once again the security around the remaining heirs must have increased every time, they weren't about to stop and lose their momentum. (and yes, i'm aware i'm talking about heirs here and not bosses, but vongola nono must literally be the hardest mafioso to kill. so if you can get rid of a family by killing their boss, getting rid of their heirs instead is another way to go about it, right?)

like, it all tracks? and i don't think it was ever hinted that i-pin's target was a mafia boss? but if so it'd strengthen this theory further, yeah. and something else that'd strengthen it is that tsuna had assassins going after him only after he was chosen as vongola decimo, even if before that, as the cedef boss' son, he was almost just as much of a prized target worth taking the risk to go after. and the world's greatest hitman being chosen as his tutor? maybe it was less about reborn's skills as a tutor, and more about how he was literally the strongest person to protect the last remaining vongola heir. i mean!!!!

and okay, i do seem to remember that the way it was framed in the manga, the assassinations were something recent and--wait, didn't reborn put the blame on verde for them, saying it was so he could test his camouflage suits? or did he only say whoever was behind it was using his camouflage suits? either way there's that, plus the fact that assassins going after mafia bosses would be something common in the mafia that'd happen here and now, right? but that said, putting all this back to back like this too, it really seems we were going for a plotline where someone was going after mafia bosses, and verde would have had a major/central/key antagonistic role in it. or not even an antagonistic role tbh. maybe it'd just have been that the culprits were using his inventions to do their job. and that he unknowingly (or knowingly) helped them do that because it was the opportunity to test his inventions and fund his researches like you said. oh i almost forgot, but even if it's the case, i agree it's very unlikely he had anything to do with the death of nono's three sons, yeah!

and yes, agree too that in the rainbow arc, verde (and his relationship with reborn) is much more chill than we were led to assume he'd be. it's like i said before, but when you look at the way he was written in the anime and the way he's written in the last arc, it's like, what the hell happened here lol?? and i actually made a post about this myself once, because it's the same effect even if you only look at the manga. namely there's this cover chapter in the last arc showing all the arco and their titles/what made them arco, and apparently verde's known as a mad scientist but like... literally where?? when did he ever show that kind of disposition, the anime notwithstanding? now of course he clearly doesn't care to be ethical in his researches and in building his inventions, nor does he care that other people might use them in non-ethical ways, but it's like... yeah, that's because he's mafia too. if anything it'd be worth pointing out more if he did care about it. and it's not nearly enough to call him mad.

(and here comes your friendly reminder that in the meantime, reborn is literally the WORLD'S GREATEST HITMAN. and it might not make him mad, but it sure as hell doesn't make him ethical either. and god, does it make him monstrous.)

this was all super interesting, thanks fae!!

hi fae! i AM curious about your ideas about verde and especially about how you felt he was forshadowed if you feel like elaborating? 👀

(also yeah, team forever and ever taking their sweet time zesrdfcgf!! 😌🥰)

Hi Hope!

So, I only know of one point of foreshadowing for Verde specifically. I haven't reread the manga in a while (a few weeks to a year to not at all, depending on the arc), and I haven't really rewatched the anime since I first saw it around 2012. (However, I do rewatch the Verde episodes sometimes.) So this won't be as comprehensive as I'd like. (Sorry) Also note that this whole thing will be full of my own interpretations and theories on the manga (and a little of the anime). So some things may be biased,etc. Also, manga spoilers!

Now then, what makes me think he is foreshadowed? Chapter 53 of the manga.

In this chapter, Verde is mentioned by some of his hired assassins to have sent them to target Tsuna. He apparently has been going after bosses and their successors. (I assume this is because he was hired by another person to do this in order to make some side money for his experiments as well as test out those camouflage suits.) The attempt fails, and Tsuna tells the defeated assassins to send Verde his reguards.

Now, what's interesting to note is when any form of plot goes out of its way for an "antagonist" to send a minion after the main character, this serves as a setup for a later encounter.

Another thing to note is that at least two of the three Vongola successors, Timoteo's sons, were also assassinated near the beginning of the manga. (One was shot in a feud, but that could potentially be seen as a cover-up. The other was drowned and another reduced to nothing but bone.) As well as the fact I-pin seems to have been sent to kill what looks like another boss during her introduction chapter, all of this points to the fact that someone was hiring assassins** to take out mafia bosses. Which, I believe this was a plot point hinted at, but it never seemed to have come into fruition. (Unless I'm forgetting something 😅)

**I know Verde isn't an assassin, but he seems to run some type of business or side business where he leaves out assassins who work for him and use the gear and weapons he's invented.

It should also be noted that I don't think that Verde had a hand in any of Timoteo's sons deaths. His method seems to be hiring assassins to inject poison into his targets.

So yeah, I kind of think there is some sort of hinted at future plot point that would have involved Verde. I don't know if he would have been a major antagonist or not. However, I can't help but note that up until Verde was mentioned, both Colonnello and Skull made full appearances. I don't think any other Arcobaleno were mentioned before that, and if nothing was being set up, then it would make more sense for him to make an appearance. Yet, he didn’t. Which further makes me think something was being set up, but it was scraped or forgotten.

Another interesting thing to note about chapter 53 is how unphased Reborn is by that, but in anime (I think in the filler), Reborn does explicitly state not to trust Verde. Yet! During the Rainbow arc, they seem more like typical anime rivals---minus all the fighting, of course. What I mean is, when you read their interactions during the climax of that arc, when everyone has gathered together to defeat Bermuda, they seem a little more friendly towards each other than what the anime has lead me to believe. In the anime, I'm sure Reborn states a few times not to trust Verde. Or that he doesn't.

However, in the manga, right before Verde activates his boss watch, they have a moment where Reborn is like, "But, Verde! You don't fight!" And just does the typical anime rivals scoff and is essentially like "I have an ace up sleeve!" It's very subtle, but oh my gosh, it reads so much like this for me! And of course, when Reborn activates his boss watch on that final fight, Verde just stands next to a robot version of Reborn. Like Verde didn’t have to pretend to TALK to Reborn. He didn’t have to keep up the act. But he did so Tsuna wouldn’t catch on to the fact that "Reborn's friend" was just Reborn's uncursed form. Which is sweet, and they are totally frenemies and---

I'm gonna leave it at that. Hopefully, this all makes sense. I might have a habit of over reading all the Verde parts in the manga, lol 🤣

(Usually, yes!!! But the chance to talk about Verde was dangled right in front of face! So I took it 😊💚)

[wolfsrainrules]

Okay but headcanons for each of the Acrobaleno as Tsuna's grandparent on Nana's side? I loved your reply about Reborn as.

ALL:

--In all of these, in varying ways, Iemitsu might have Tsuna with Nana, but he sure as hell doesn’t get away with his bullshit. None of them will have it, and all of them have different Consequences™ for him trying it. 

All are painful. All are effective. 

--Nana? Nana was taught to act a certain way but she’s a Boss Ass Bitch™ and the world is never ready for it, it’s great

--Tsuna will be taught to ALSO be a Bad Ass and no one can tell me he won’t. That’s a baby Sky with a grandparent that is the strongest Flame of that kind’s user, and all the instincts that come with that especially when the kid if actually of their blood. He’s gonna be a tiny little bad ass in one form or the other.  

yes, even Skull. Fite me.

FON:

--This means that Tsuna has Hibari blood in him, as does Nana. DO YOU KNOW HOW FUNNY THAT IS TO ME.

--He grows up around Kyouya. Kyouya  claims him as a tiny little toddler looking at tiny bby in his Aunt’s arms, and he will literally fight anybody over him, that’s his tiny sky fuck off.

--Tsuna does in fact have the Hibari FITE ME instinct, it’s just so unexpected, because he’s a Hibari that picks his battles and it shows. That his Grandfather taught him to fight??

--Tsuna is very very good at hand to hand, is an absolute mismatched mess of fighting that flows so well together it looks like a single style. Fon is very proud. Tsuna is having fun. Kyouya thinks this is amazing cause it makes him unpredictable in a conventional sense and he loves it. 

--He has Fon’s ever present calm. It gives Reborn the jitters cause he recognizes it but can’t place where, and he has a feeling he’s fucked up somewhere but can’t place how.

VERDE:

--Verde is kinda distant, but he pays a hell of a lot of attention. Just because he’s not there often doesn’t mean he isn’t watching. 

--He makes it a mission to FUCK UP Vongola Ninth for trying to seal his baby grandson. He succeeds.

--Okay, but Genius! Tsuna???? I’m living.

-- Spanner and Shoichi losing their entire minds over him. ALSO BONDED ELEMENTS IN THIS AU?????? P L S. 

--Tsuna has this bad habit of pulling things apart and putting them back together to see how they work, but he accidentally charges them with Sky Flames and it has wild effects that everyone (himself, Spanner, Shoichi, and Verde and later on maybe Gokudera) are INTERESTED IN. 

COLLONELLO

--this immediately makes Lal Grandmother, and she’ll argue it, but she loves Tsuna dearly, and absolutely melts when he calls her it, not that it shows.

--this means Tsuna grows up going to Mafia Land, and running into Skull and I love that immensely. 

---Collonello is teaching him firearms and army survival shit and living his best life. (Lal is 100% helping and calling it ‘making sure you dont fuck it up and get him killed’) 

---Tsuna loves Skull, and her motorcycle and wants to learn i m m e n s e l y. Collonello is kinda jealous and retaliates by teaching Tsuna to drive a tank. 

--His childhood is adventurous and rough and tumble and he loves it. 

--He’s so well versed in Mafia at this point, and the island loves him. Reborn can’t pull his thing in this au, cause the guards would laugh and wave him in and Tsuna would rock it anyway, including the cannon event Reborn made Tsuna attempt. 

VIPER

--OKAY BUT PLS VIPER TEACHING TINY TSUNA TO COUNT WITH MONEY --cries in oh no thats cute fuck---

--Tsuna growing up with very eccentric assassins cause Varia family is very important and they CANT not check out their Mist’s grandson okay-

--oh shit that’s a tiny primo what the fuck

--what the fuck kinda protections are THESE, fuck off that’s NOT quality 

--Varia brawls drop to zero when Tsuna is sleeping or Xanxus will get PISSED, as will Viper and Tsuna will cry and everyone hates that even if they dont say it. 

--Xanxus loves him very much, he’s an OLDER BROTHER NOW thats HIS Tiny Idiot, who reaching for his flames and gave him a heart attack by grabbing them with tiny pudgy toddler fingers and then didnt get burned okay,

Skull

--wanna see Skull actually truly rage?? Touch his family. Go ahead. Sign that death warrant.

--Tsuna is a tiny little grease monkey mechanic having the time of his life

--Tsuna is able to take apart and put together engines with his eyes closed

--He is totally an adrenaline junkie and he loves stunt driving with his whole heart

---He has accidentally, and then later on purpose, enhanced Skull’s bikes and things with Sky Flames

-- He grows up with Skull’s unbiased Flame use thing, so he does....a lot of shit most Skies would be like “Bitch what the FUCK” about. Cause Skull has some info, but is also aware of what caging the ‘belief’ factor of Flames will do, cause he can do shit with his Flames that made Reborn and the others s t o p, so he never stops Tsuna from experimenting.

--Tsuna is therefore a tiny Flame monster, ESPECIALLY when he figures out Sky  Flames are actually EVERY OTHER flame added together and he can in fact pull them apart if he concentrates.

Concept inspired by The Opportune Moment by princecollywolly

Chatper 3 excerpt below the cut

“See somethin’ you like there, Doc?” he teased with a smile earning a smile from her. This was more the Wrecker she had come to know. Playful, smiling, talkative. Her cheeks grew hot at the teasing now though. “Oh come on Doc. You weren’t so shy with your chest in my face a few minutes ago.” 

“Is that an offer?” she replied playfully. 

“It uh could be, if you wanted,” he replied, eyes a little wide with surprise.

She closed the short distance between them and leaned tentatively forward, holding his arm for balance. Their lips brushed against each other softly, tentatively. Wrecker seemed to gain a little more confidence and drew her closer to him. Nova was sure this was the gentlest kiss she’d ever received. Even as he deepened it and pulled her onto his lap he took care not to be rough with her.

“Maker…” she breathed as they broke apart, her forehead coming to rest on his. 

“More where that came from, I mean if you want,” he replied. 

She nodded and leaned in again, kissing him with more confidence as she moved to straddle his lap on the exam table. His hands came up under her thighs to hold her to him. Her thighs weren’t skinny by any definition. None of her really was. She maintained her strength and she didn’t try to hide it, but in his hands she felt small and almost delicate.

“So small,” he said with a teasing smile. “Thought about this for a while, Doc.” 

“Why didn’t you say something before, big guy?” she asked. 

“I dunno… Was afraid you would be scared of me.” He paused to catch his breath, looking her over. She could swear his cheeks were turning pink with blush.

“Nothing to fear here,” she whispered, squeezing his arms lightly. Was it her or was it getting warm in there? She didn’t get long to ponder that question as Wrecker’s mouth started trailing kisses down her neck. Shit if he keeps this up… Her hands trailed down his chest, earning an appreciative growl. Nothing but his blacks blocked the way to the hardened muscle hidden beneath. 

Before she knew it she was in his lap, held up by his strong arms and straddling him on the exam table, losing herself in the heat of the moment. How had it taken either of them so long to go for it?

Nova found herself grateful that not only did she have a private work space, but that it was well after lights out and none were really around as she and Wrecker slipped out of her office. Her outer blouse was draped over her arm and Wrecker’s shirt was only half buttoned. A giddy giggle escaped her when he wrapped a large hand around her waist while they walked.

She felt like the blush would never go away when they slipped through the doors of the squad’s living quarters. It seemed that all the others were asleep already. In the darkness of the quiet barracks, Wrecker stole a kiss and she giggled softly into it before they parted ways going to their bunks.

Neither of them noticed the faint glow of two eyes watching from the bunk across the room nor the faint sound of a toothpick snapping in half between someone’s teeth as they kissed. The room fell silent after that save for the light snores from Wrecker’s bunk.

(ONE SHOT) we can turn it into gold dust  STAR WARS

Jangobi Week Day 2 - Time Travel

A03

When Ben had first woken up in the past, he’d had nowhere to go. He hadn’t known where he was, what he was doing, or what he  would  do, he hadn’t even been aware that he  was in the past at first. He had still been shaking with adrenaline from his battle against - against Vader. Bone weary from the grief of losing his family, from the ache of the betrayal of his men, he hadn’t been sure of anything, but the fact that he’d had two children in his arms that needed protection and that he was no longer on Bail’s ship. No longer standing beside his Grandmaster and the body of one of his dearest friends.

At first, he hadn’t even realized that he was over a decade younger than he had been only months before, all he’d known was that he was immensely grateful for the peculiarities of Stewjoni biology, because he’d had two very hungry newborns to feed before he could truly wonder about what had happened.

He’d disguised himself as a farmer, hiding his and Anakins’ lightsabers, stealing some clothing from an abandoned homestead, and that had been when he’d truly gotten his first good look at his face, and he’d nearly retched in his shock. The face staring back at him had been fresh with young, a face round with immaturity and smattered with freckles Ben hadn’t worn since he was a Padawan, free of the beard he had once worn. He barely looked out of his teens, like he should still be following his Master around on missions and attending lessons in the Temple. He had stood them, bare as the day he had been born, for a long time, just staring at his reflection in the broken glass until one of the twins started wailing to be fed and Ben had forced himself to move.

Luke and Leia needed him, so he couldn’t let himself crumble.

Ben had forced himself to keep moving, because he had two orphaned infants who needed him for everything. Without him, they’d have no food, no warmth, no care - so he’d kept moving forward, looking to the Force for guidance. The lack of slimy Darkness around him had been a shock at first, had made him realize how  used to it he had become over the years, and it wasn’t only all from the two supernovas that he carried around with him, one strapped to his chest, the other to his back, as they’d worked their way through the countryside of a snow-covered planet that Ben didn’t recognize.

It had been beautiful, at least, seeing the sun glinting off of ice crystals and snow capped trees, white dusted on the undergrowth like a layer of powdered sugar on those donuts he remembered Garen enjoying a little too much when they had been children. He had spent too long confined to the war front and Coruscant, unable to see the beauty of nature like he could on the unknown planet he had found himself on.

The peace hadn’t lasted.

Urged on by the Force, Ben had kept walking, and eventually he’d found himself stumbling upon a camp of armoured Mandalorians - who had all seemed equally as surprised to see him as he was to see them. It had been a tense stand-off, staring down the business end of almost a hundred blasters, until Luke had started fussing under his coat, uneasy with the emotions being broadcasted into the Force and hungry once more.

The sights and sounds of a fussy baby had been the sign that the Mando’ade had needed, and Ben had found himself immediately ushered further into the camp by protective and worried warriors. They’d been utterly delighted when both children had been unveiled, like seeing a second infant was the most precious thing they’d all ever seen. He’d found himself and the twins herded to the tent at the very center of the camp, the most well-defended position with the best insulation and heating, private enough to let him breastfeed in peace. Eventually, a medic had come to him, carrying a scanner and leading a younger  verd laden with blankets and pillows behind xem. Blood work had been done, a medical profile created, and none of them had even blinked an eye when neither Luke or Leias’ genetics matched his own.

To them, he was Ben Tano, twenty years old, just another refugee who had gotten in over his head, who had taken in two orphans who had needed care and comfort.  Baar’ur Nawara had been knowledgeable and well-trained, and perhaps Ben shouldn’t have been as surprised as he had been that the Twi’Lek had known the specifics of Stewjoni biology, considering that Mandalorians had once been known to take in beings regardless of species, as long as they swore the  resol’nare.

Eventually, their leader had returned from scouting, had swept into the tent and into Ben’s life, and then there he had stayed.

It was then, shirtless under one of the blankets offered to him, cradling the twins in his arms as they’d fed, that the truth of his situation had truly sunk in, because when the buy’ce had come off, Ben had found himself staring into a hauntingly familiar face, one he had spent the last three years of his life surrounded by at all sides. Jango Fett, young enough that he could have been mistaken as one of his clones, dressed in  beskar’gam painted in a way that Ben had never seen, dark hair curling around a face unlined by years of hatred and suffering, had stared back at him. Barely out of his teenaged years himself, Jango Fett had proven himself to be a completely different person than the man Ben had met in his own time, the one that had consigned millions of his own children to a life of slavery and death. This was a Jango Fett who was still Mand’alor, still a leader among his people, one who had not yet been given the name of Jedi Killer - and Ben had made sure that he never would.

Somehow, he had been thrown decades into the past, in a body young enough that he could be mistake for a teenager, on Galidraan before the slaughter of the True Mandalorians, before the Mandalorian Civil War had truly spun out of control and Death Watch gained the amount of traction Ben had once known them to have. He’d been thrown into a past before Jango had given himself over to a life of vengeance, before the clones had even been created, and Ben had made sure it would never happen.

He mourned for the friends he lost by meddling; mourned good, strong Cody, kind Waxer and Boil, cheerful Wooley, and so many more that had been lost. He mourned for his 212th, who had betrayed him for reasons Ben doubted he’d ever know, for Rex and the 501st, for all of the clones who would never get to live. By making sure the True Mandalorians didn’t die on Galidraan, Ben had ensured that they’d never live, he had changed the course of history and everything he had known.

He had nowhere to go, no home to go back to - there was already an Obi-Wan Kenobi at the Temple, and even the thought of returning made him think of the bodies of his family on the floor, of smoke rising above the spires and fear staining the walls like blood. So when Jango had offered him a place with the True Mandalorians, among people he hadn’t known in his own time, he had accepted.

He had accepted, had become a Mandalorian, and, eventually, he became the  Be’alor as well.

An arm slides across his waist, pulling him closer against a warm, broad chest, and Ben feels lips press against the back of his neck, hot breath ruffling the shaggy copper hair there. “It’s too early to be thinking,  Mesh’la.” His husband murmurs, his end of their Force bond buzzing groggily, and Ben hums, enjoying the pleasant tingle of human contact, melting into Jango’s embrace as a large hand splays across the faint bump of his abdomen. “What’s wrong,  riduur? Is the  ikaad bothering you?”

“Just thinking,  cyar’ika.” He soothes, pulling away just enough that he can roll over to face his husband, letting the other man tuck his head under his chin, dark curls brushing against the clean shaven skin there, hand moving back to the ever-growing baby bump. This late in the night cycle, it’s just the two of them in the  Mand’alor’s suite, far too early as it is for even energetic five year olds to be running around. The Keldabe palace is a fortress, impenetrable and safe, and it lets Ben relax, allowing him to be sure that his  ade are safe. “It’s been five years.” He muses, almost amazed by the fact, playing absently with Jango’s soft hair.

Jango purrs deep in his chest as his nails drag over his scalp, a genetic hold over from the nonhuman ancestors Ben had never known he’d had - but maybe he shouldn’t have been too surprised to learn, considering how pack-minded the clones had been. “Best five years of my life.” The man rumbles sleepily, nuzzling against Ben’s collarbone. “I might just like your Force-shit after all. It gave me you.” Then, when Ben’s mouth opens to say something appropriately witty, still unsure what to do with the love and care aimed towards him to this day, Jango silences him with a sweet kiss that tastes like morning breath and makes both of them screw up their faces in exaggerated disgust.

“Urg.” Ben says dramatically, like some great insult had been given to him, flopping over onto his back and ignoring the faint roll of nausea that follows when the baby makes their displeasure known. Jango follows like a limpet, burying his face in Ben’s stomach and rubbing his cheek against the delightfully soft fabric of his sleep shirt as he stretches his arms across him like another blanket. “So  uncivilized.”

“You love me.” Jango grins at him, soft with sleep and his cheek resting against the bump of their growing child, dark eyes shimmering with so much love that Ben wants to cry sometimes.

He doesn’t know what he ever could have done to deserve this sweet happiness.

“Unfortunately.” Ben teases, reaching out to ruffle his hair again, and Jango melts into his touch, purrs kicking up once more. “Otherwise I wouldn’t have agreed to marry you and accepted Myles’ proposal instead.”

“Betrayal.” Jango grumps, voice thickening once more as sleep creeps towards him once again, “My own brother, betraying me. I should have him hanged.”

He can’t stop the laugh that bubbles up in response, “You wouldn’t.” He says playfully, dodging the half-hearted swat that lands on his pillow instead, leaving Jango’s wrist to rest against his mouth, and Ben nips at it teasingly. “You love Myles too much.”

“Lies and slander.”

Ben laughs again, the weight of his past long forgotten in the face of his husband’s warmth, and he gently kisses the pulse point he can feel beating against his lips. “Go back to sleep, Jan’ika. We have a few hours yet until your court needs us.”

“Our  court.” Jango mumbles, surrendering to the gentle Force suggestion Ben had lined his words with. “You got half of it when you agreed to marry me.” His breath evens as he slips back to sleep, filling the room and the Force with foggy contentment and gentle love, and Ben smiles.

“Of course.” He teases his sleeping husband, unable to not get the last word even as he finds himself being pulled back to his dreams. “How dare I forget that.”

[thekimspoblog]

Skyler helping with the money laundering felt more like duress. She was already afraid of her husband, had already tried to kick him out and failed. And she (incorrectly) believed she was protecting her son.

Kim on the other hand, the "maybe we get married?" scene is probably the strongest bit of characterization we ever get from her. (Although again, the writers kind of seem like they just wanted a big twist; if the planting and payoff was worse in this story it would have easily come off like a soap opera) After what happened with Mesa Verde, she could have walked away; she should have walked away. Jimmy is nothing but liability and she has very little to lose by dumping him. But instead she doubles down. Not because she thinks Chuck was wrong; not because she fully trusts him. But because this is the moment she realizes she can never fully trust him... and she doesn't care. She could have any man she wants, but she's bored when she's not rocking the boat, so embracing the fact that he's never going to change so she has to was easier than throwing away all that history.

It's entirely possible that Jimmy would have run afoul of the cartels sooner or later without Kim's help; probable even. But my point is mostly that he wouldn't have become a lawyer without her. So if nothing else, he wouldn't have ended up getting a life sentence for all that RICO shit and tax evasion on top of the Heisenberg thing... because he simply wouldn't have had the skills or funds to pull that off. And this feeds back into my headcanon that there's some Hemmingway-Iceberg stuff going on with Kim having some grudge against Chuck. Like ok, the writers were clearly just making Kim's character up as they went along, and in the early seasons on a meta level it's transparent that she defends Jimmy so ardently just so The Plot Can Happen, but when you take a step back, it really starts to look like having Jimmy succeed in the legal field was about proving some sort of point. Because it sure as hell wasn't for Jimmy's benefit; all he wanted was to spend time with her and for her to be proud of him. She could have told him at any point that he was enough for her without all these altruistic overtures... but she never actually says those words, let alone acts as if she believes that could be true.

That's the real parallel between Walt and Kim; neither of them are stupid. Surely, they both know how badly their sidekicks are desperate for approval and a sense of found family. And rather than ever clarify that the love was unconditional, they used these insecurities to make their partners do what they wanted. Walt, obviously doing so a lot more consciously than Kim. But it is telling how Kim is simultaneously always just "so so busy, much too slammed with work to hang out" and yet she'll clear her schedule if it means going on another escapade. Like sure, you could make the argument that Jimmy's a bad boyfriend because he leaves so many messes for her to clean up. But what I think makes Kim such an interesting and dastardly character is how obvious it is that she secretly loves it. Not just because she could leave at any time if she was unhappy, but because she keeps giving positive reinforcement to the bad behavior and ignoring him when he's keeping his nose clean. Either Kim is doing this on purpose or... at best she's never seen a single episode of The Dog Whisperer.

Kim/Walt parallel: finding a petty criminal, and being like "I see a great potential in you" and then that sense of ambition proceeding to fuck up his life and expose him to horrors he never would have known if he had just stayed a petty criminal.

Description: Danielle is a cunning and animated witch. She’s outgoing, bright and carries herself with confidence. In the past this has made her friends and enemies alike. She’s charming but can be a bit of a trickster. Her demeanor is generally calm and she does not often experience strong anger. She’s very smart and dedicated to her craft, and she is a perfectionist. As a worker, she gives excellent customer service and is a good saleswoman. To her friends, she’s teasing and wild, but loving and encouraging. On her worst days, she has the potential to be a bit more inconsiderate and is not the best at handling huge displays of emotions from others.

As a Love Interest: Girlllll…. first of all she needs to stop being emotionally stunted! My good sis cannot handle open displays of emotion at all and tends to shut down! The physical aspects are all there and excellent and she is going to be sweet, caring and loving but she needs to take things more seriously and be able to talk about feelings!!! 3/10

Familiar: None

Love Interest: Julian

Description: Jia is a bright and curious magician. She’s a bit nerdy and loves reading/learning new disciplines. She is an energetic and altruistic person who is liked by many. She comes off as kind and forthcoming. She is very helpful and if she can’t help directly she will find someone who can with her connections. To her friends, she is loyal and sweet and affectionate, but also has the potential to be grumpy and even a bit negative. She’s very determined in hard situations and won’t back down until things are made right. Despite this, she can potentially overthink and overestimate situations and is incredibly stubborn when she wants to be.

As a romantic partner: loving, but definitely also able to keep independence. Not necessarily a stage 5 clinger but somewhere in the middle. She will love just spending lots of time with a partner and just picking their brain and learning everything she can from them. The type to brag about them to her friends. A wonderful listener but give her a chance to speak too she likes talking a lot as well! 10/10 would recommend

Love Interest: Asra

Description: Ki is a perceptive and witty magician. To most he comes off as a bit anxious and shy, which he is. Once you get past that, he’s eager, forthcoming and empathetic. He is very kind and likes to believe people have good intentions. He is very helpful and always tries to make sure others are comfortable and happy. He enjoys music and learning musical instruments. He prefers to work more in the background so as to not draw attention to himself. With his friends, he’s actually very talkative, silly and goofy. He’s prone to anxiety and may tense up or feel attacked when put into frightening situations. Unfortunately he has self destructive tendencies and low self esteem and has a hard time due to that.

As a Love Interest: perfect little s/o shut the FUCK UP…. that is if u can deal with low self esteem and anxiety! He really really tries though! He’s also shy with physical affection but will warm up to it eventually with familiarity and trust. Very doting and randomly shows up with delicious food and takes care of u when ur sick. 8/10

Familiar: A white ferret named Elle

Love Interest: Muriel

Description: Mathilde is a gentle and thoughtful magician. She is soft-spoken and hates raising her voice, and is often making bizarre and thought provoking side comments in most situations. She is curious and intuitive when it comes to magic and often able to use several methods to predict the future for others. She carries herself in a dreamlike/contemplative manner and does not really care what others think - She’s off in her own world. With friends, she has a good source of humor and gives good advice and is a very good listener. She has an affinity for animals and nature, and would generally prefer to be outside. She can tend to be unrealistic and naive and loses hold on her emotions in tough situations (angry crier…) and feels misunderstood by those around her.

As a love interest: Downright adorable. Sweet, will bring you cool items she found and very endearing. She’s also encouraging and surprisingly cheesy. Not outwardly clingy but if you let her she will. but good fucking luck starting to date her! She is extremely pretty and gets asked out almost every day, turning down 99.999999% of applicants because other people do not particularly interest her and her taste is insanely picky! 10/10 but FAT CHANCE
