Credit: The wonderful amazing INSANELY talented @dumplingcatho made these STUNNING character portraits!! I am still reeling from how dang good she is. I swear she probably made a deal with the devil for this talent but I shall not question it.

Nat [M/F]

The soulmate/ex/best friend.

Your ex. Your parents never approved of them, but you suppose it doesn’t matter anymore. Despite the breakup, you’re still friends, and worse still - you still live with them in a tiny shoebox apartment. New York rent, man—it's hard to say no even though you know you should be moving on, and moving out.

Height: 6′2 (M) | 5′11 (F)

Nationality & race: African-American

Occupation: Post-doc fellow, working towards becoming a tenure-track professor.

Description:

Warm, twinkling eyes, and big, infectious laugh. Can swing from nerdy charm to extreme goofyness at the drop of a pin.

Loving, thoughtful, and kind to a fault. Relaxed, gentle demeanour

The kind of friend—and partner—you can trust with your life.

An incurable optimist.

Loves people, art/movies (especially talking about them with friends), food/cooking, their two dogs. 

Nat's dogs

Kiho [M]

Breed: Cairn Terrier

Age: 8

Description: Proud, small, intelligent, standoffish, with a stern grandpa energy. Apparently, a reader/player told me long ago that Kiho means "big boss" in Finnish colloquial slang and that was so perfect that it stuck. If Kiho were human he'd wear an old patagonia vest and spend his weekends fishing (not very adeptly).

Liz [F]

Breed: Border collie

Age: 3 (adopted when MC and Nat were already together.)

Description: Not exactly literal golden retriever energy but... close enough. A ray of sunshine, playful, easygoing, happy-go-lucky and a voracious eater (she eats everything), loves playing in puddles and has a special love for chewed up tennis balls.

Qiu [M/F]

The estranged first love / soulmates.

Your first-love (or platonic soulmate), from junior college. You’d not kept in touch, and now, they’re ridiculously successful. But, according to your intel, still…single.

Height: 5′8 (M) | 5′4 (F)

Nationality & race: Chinese Singaporean

Occupation: Public prosecutor

Description:

Extremely intelligent, with a sharp, cutting wit.

Ambitious, determined, and a bit cynical / jaded.

Dark, piercing gaze, with a completely unreadable expression.

Formal, a little bit stiff, and always impeccably dressed.

Aloof, almost intimidating presence despite their relatively average height/slim build.

Loves a job well done, being useful, stimulating conversation, and solving problems. Peace and quiet.

Shay [M/F]

The charismatic stranger.

Your neighbour (Auntie Pearl)'s new tenant. Sexy, confident, and unabashedly unconventional. Your mother definitely does not approve, but you might not be able to resist their roguish charms.

Height: 5′10 (M) | 5′6 (F)

Nationality & race: Chinese (Peranakan) Singaporean

Occupation: Lead singer & guitarist in a rock band

Description:

Thick, sweeping eyebrows, expressive eyes that twinkle at the edges, and a permanent roguish half-grin.

Tan, athletic, with an undeniable swagger to their walk. Has a penchant for sleeveless muscle tees. Good with their hands (and... possibly other parts of their body).

Adventurous, resilient, unflinchingly honest, and uncompromisingly true to themselves / the people they love.

Loves the outdoors (and constant motion), music (especially rock, reggae and soul), dancing, soccer, nature/plants (including gardening).

= Cast Cards =

Slowly catching up on Cast cards by the fabulous and kind @melvisik! First up today is Antoine Douaihy, one of our executive producers! Now-- I was getting confused on the different level producers so I figured I'd mention the difference here in case you were too! Executive Producers: "The executive producer sits at the top of the production hierarchy as it is their job to source and secure financing for production. Without them, a film or show could never be made as they are the ones who kickstart the project." - Toronto Film School

-- Line Producer --

Another producer is up, Susan Parker! One of our Line Producers for the show! " Line producers are at the heart of a production, hiring the crew, allocating the money and making sure the filming is done safely, creatively, on budget and on time. They are typically the most senior member of the production team, second only to the producers. Working closely with heads of departments, they decide how the money gets spent, delivering the best possible product to the producer or series producer while offering the director and heads of department enough money to realise the vision." - ScreenSkills

-- Makeup Artists --

Last but not least for the night is Devan Weitzman, another of our fabulous make-up artists!

== Love Notes ==

Hey there lovelies! Gosh it's been a wild ride this fall (and spring for those of you on the opposite site of the world). I truly hope yall are getting some rest and re-cooperation time. There's been so much going on. This Love Note is very short-- because I'm overwhelmed at the moment. Please just remember that It's OK not to be OK, ya? Sit with your feelings sometimes and give them some love, sad feelings are part of you too, and the more we recognize them and give them love too, the more we heal. Take care Crew, this is a gentle reminder to be kind to yourself today <3

—————

Both were asleep in bed, when little 7 year old Tony walked into the bedroom and climbing into their bed.

Jason woke up first rubbing his eyes and sighed, "Bubba what you doing? We built you a new big boy bed last week.."

"Bad dream.." Said little Tony balling up his fist and getting under the covers, "..and Daddy is out."

"Oh right Momma visiting Aunt Peg for the week.."

"I'm sorry..c-can I stay?"

That moment Elizabeth woke up ruffling her nephew's bed head and yawned, "Sure, Bambino. But you wanna talk about the bad dream first?"

Tony looked down holding his teddy bear and mumbled, "I was in a dark and scary cave with a dragon..and I could not fight him, I was running but there no way to go.."

"Aww sweetie, look it's okay not every dream is gonna be a good one but you're okay. Everything is okay, you hear me?"

" I know..it's okay, b-but I was lost and scared..I did not save the princess..I fail.."

"Oh no sweetie, you didn't fail anyone. It was just a bad dream, there are no dragons here to hurt you."

"But the princess?"

"Maybe you will save her in the next dream."

Jason added with a tired smile, "Or maybe the princess already saved herself? Like auntie Lizzie or auntie Peg. And she's now waiting for you in the dream."

"Really?" Tony asked with a small smile.

"Yeah, sometimes it's the little prince that needs to go on journey to find the princess waiting for him in the end."

"Okay, I am ready to sleep now..and meet the princess."

"Out of curiosity, who was the princess?"

"Her name was Molly."

"Ohh nice name."

Elizabeth cut in with a chuckle, "Yeah very nice! Now we can please go to sleep and save the kingdom tonight in this dream?"

The boys nodded with a smile, cuddling up in bed with the lady of the house.

------

Elizabeth blowing raspberries on Tony's tummy as his giggles filled up the house with laughter. Jason was building up rocking chair in the living room and walked into the kitchen.

Jarvis was making lunch for them.

"Hey babe." He said with a smile, kissing her forehead then gave his nephew one on the cheek.

"Hi dear." She replied with a smile bouncing their nephew in her lap who giggled brightly.

It was a running gag but a sweet one calling each other pet names since the day they met. It went beyond, just them calling each other nicknames Jason called Jarvis's wife, Ana, honey and doll all the time as a term of endearment.

"JJ!" Tony yelled in glee with a toothy grin, as both adults looked their eyes at his silliness.

Something that would carry on once Tony is older is that silly toothy grin of his, no matter what the situation is. Especially his giggles.

Jarvis set the table for them, as Jason rushed over to help him and cutting Elizabeth's food into smaller sizes. Ana joined them soon enough watching all of this in curiosity. However, it confused the British man, once they all sat down to eat.

"Why does Jason need to cut your food, Miss Stark?" Jarvis asked them as he ate.

"Just watch, dear." Ana added, curious knowing she will get an answer.

With Tony's booster seat resting between them. Ana grabs a glass of wine and sits next to her husband. Looking at the kid who are begin to eat but what caught Jarvis's eye was Tony’s other hand gripping Elizabeth’s left hand in a tight grip.

"Aww how adorable." Ana said with a smile eating her chicken.

"It is indeed but what exactly is happening? I might need an explanation." Jarvis questioned with a smile.

"Tony had this new habit where he only can eat if he holds Elizabeth or Maria’s hand. It started a few days ago." Jason explained chuckling as he ate.

"I don't mind it. It keeps him relaxed and allows me to make sure he's doing alright while eating." Elizabeth replied eating with her other hand.

"What happens if you remove your hand?" Ana asked, in love with the way Tony's happily eating.

Elizabeth lets go of Tony's hand and all of them looking at the youngest Stark who started fusing while chewing a piece of meat, one hand starts waving asking for his auntie’s hand.

Elizabeth just let Tony wrap his fingers with her own in the meantime as Ana chuckled and Jarvis snorted with a smile.

"Howard tried it yesterday, removing Tony's hand away from Maria and he just cried. Not pretty." Jason added chuckling.

"It was hilarious!" Elizabeth told them as she snickered, "My brother promised to let him sleep with their room last night, if he stopped. Howard was third wheeling."

------

“Will you please go to sleep now? You're a growing boy, come on please do it Uncle JJ.” Jason sighed and rubbed his own face with his palm.

“No way.” Tony runs “I wan Liz…”

“I give up.” Jason buried his face in the kid’s bed

Jason finally gets up and walks to the living room where his best girl is reading something from her notebook. Watching Tony just dive to her lap startling the woman.

“What the-?” Elizabeth jumped out of reflex “I-shouldn’t you be in bed and counting sheep?”

“I’m not sleepy.” Tony shakes his head.

“Well, I am.” Jason sighed and sat next to Elizabeth looking into her eyes hoping she understood the silent help signal, "No more kids, one is enough.."

That was when Hank Pym called as Elizabeth put him on the speaker and started talking with him as she tried to put her kid to sleep.

"Lizzie is this a bad time?" Hank asked while on the phone, hearing Tony mumbling in the background and Jason's voice muttering something.

"No, Hankie it's fine. Someone's allergic to sleep just like his father, I'll pay you 500 bucks if you can get him to sleep." Elizabeth replied jokingly.

"I'll see what I can do. Do you remember the equation use for invention you and Howard were making?"

"Actually, yeah I do. The one for that android prototype? Yeah I do."

"Good because I thinking we can use for this new formula I was creating."

Both scientists go to work, talking with the equipment and possible new investments they would make that month to present to the others. Laughing and gushing about their week as well.

Jason was napping when he was accidentally smack on the shoulder due to Elizabeth's excitement how on they can improve the formula for the shrink ray.

"Ow!" He shouted softly, being woken up.

"Oh, sorry JJ. I was just, you know." She replied trying to explain with a chuckle.

"I know let me take this little guy off your hands."

"Alright."

Both expected to find Tony still awake on his auntie's lap but he nodding off as they spoke. They chuckled quietly thanking Hank's believing their science talk tired him out or something.

He picked him up as Tony's head rested on his shoulder, his eyes were trying to stay open as he mumbled, "I'm not tired...no sleepy.."

"Oh yes you are, Bubba. Very sleepy." Jason said with a soft chuckle with sighed, "Say night night."

Elizabeth stood up cupping his little face mumbling sweet nothing into his ears as Tony hummed a soft, "..night night."

"Night, my little star." She replied with a soft smile, deciding to help tuck him in.

They tucked in their little boy, turning on the recording on Maria Stark's gentle singing voice as background noise for Tony.

Moments like that, they both wished Howard and Maria were not busy sometimes but they're more than happy to raise the little guy instead.

----

As much as he is their little boy, he is Howard's son and that being said he was a little rebellious at time. Especially in his early teens and his years as an adult..

"Anthony Edward Stark, where the hell you think your going?" Elizabeth asked with her arms crossed and tapped her foot with a glare.

"Out!" Repiled Tony, who was 12 years old at this point with a classic smirk.

"It's Monday afternoon on a school night!"

"So?"

"So you're not heading out to whatever your heading off to! I don't care what it is, Friday it's another thing, I allow it. But Monday, hell no!"

"You're not dad, auntie Liz!"

"And thank god I ain't. Be lucky it ain't Peggy either, why do you want to head out anyway? To act cool with your friends?"

Tony sighed in defeat dramatically dropping the smirk and crossed his arms, "Well no shit. All my friends are doing it."

Jason stepped in after returning home from an getting supplies hearing his nephew, "Please tell you didn't just curse in front of your aunt."

"I just said 'shit'! Relax.." Tony replied with a sigh thinking of something knowing who's the softer parent, "And aunt Liz won't let me go out."

"First off no cursing at your aunt. And second, out where?"

"An party..all my friends will be there!"

"Is it on Friday?"

"Yup! It's on Friday, it's a small party."

Elizabeth scoffed, "No! It's tonight, an silly little stupid party with his friends doing god knows what. God knows if the parents will be there!"

"She's lying! She doesn't want me to have fun this week and stay stuck in this house, only invite to Rhodey or something." Tony shouted.

"Enough!" Jason yelled raising his voice, "I know she ain't lying and that you're the one who is actually lying. You know the rules Tony, no parties or anything on school night like Monday. And something tells me those kids parents don't know they're going to that party."

"B-but that's not fair! I should be allow to go." Tony yelled.

"No you shouldn't and it is fair, she’s saving you for tomorrow. She knows that something off is going on if it's on a Monday, simple as that. Doesn't that sound a little weird to you?"

"...yeah..it does."

"We will talk about this later."

A few more words were said before Tony left to the living room. Liz was pissed off and so was Jason.

He sighed and told her, "You were doing the right thing."

"I know.." She sighed, "I know. I'm just trying to protect him. Something tells me this won't be the last argument."

"Cause it won't. But we just try to lead him down the right path.."

"You got that right. Protecting him and all that.."

----

Road trips with the three of them tend to be something else. Tony always making himself known with questions, annoying them on purpose and snickering afterwards.

"Where we going?" Tony asked in the backseat, playing with his jacket zipper.

"To meet Peggy and your parents in San Diego." Elizabeth replied like it was obvious with a smile.

"And why are you driving?"

"Because your uncle JJ has a bad history with driving."

Jason perked up, "I'm right here, you know?!

Tony snorted, "Okay what time we get there?"

"Midnight." Elizabeth said with sigh.

"What happens at midnight?"

"You're bedtime."

"Can I drive?"

Both shouted at the same time, "No!"

That resulted in Tony laughing at their response as both parents chuckled at his ridiculous way to make times like that a joke or two.

---

Sometimes Elizabeth tends to become a mama bear, as if she isn't already. Like when Tony started dating, Howard rolled his eyes chuckling at his sister and Maria gushed hoping her boy enjoys the dating scene.

Elizabeth on the other hand, she was so excited and sat beside Jason one afternoon while he was reading. He was reading a classic children's' book from the shelfs, 'The Giving Tree' when Elizabeth came with a grin.

"Yes my darling?" He asked looking up from the book with a laugh.

"Tony got a date!" She repiled with a smile.

"With who? I mean I'm not surprise our kid has been a cheeky little guy since the age of 3."

"You know that day Howard took Tony down to that event in Chicago? Well there was this nice girl there with her mother, Tony sneaked off to see her and now they met again due to her mother bringing her here for an clothing event. And according to Ana, he has a date."

"That's my boy. If he's not a gentleman, I'll ground him for life. Where to?"

"Ana said that caravel downtown this weekend. She was eavesdropping and I love her for it."

"Not bad for a first actually date with a girl he seems to like."

Elizabeth sigh assuming something, Jason knew that look on her face and ask her what's going on.

"I don't want to sound cheesy but he's growing up so fast, JJ! I mean where did the time go? It felt like I was helping him add 2 + 2 yesterday! Now a date? Damn..he's my baby." Elizabeth admitted with a sigh.

Jason opened his arms pulling her into an tight embrace as she was nuzzling comfortably against his neck. She pouted, it was a rare moment but she did. He chuckled rubbing her shoulder.

"Aw, Lizzie, darling. He's growing up, I don't like it. Hell I would rather stop time and let him stay the way he is now. But we can't. Before we know it, he's buying his own house or deciding to buy this one off his father." Jason joked with a smile.

Elizabeth chuckled, "He might as well do that. I'm not ready for him to keep growing up, what if he doesn't want hugs from his auntie anymore? What if he grows up hating the idea of living with us? I mean it's a packed a house, i don’t blame him."

"Hahaha no, honey he won't. I think he rather have a packed house than a quieter one. And he will always need his auntie, he's your baby. Tony knows it, hell he might make you an godmother one day."

"Oh god no, don't think that far hahaha! I want him live in the moment now, before he's old and gray. I'm still gonna baby him no matter how old he is! You know that right?"

"Oh I know. And he's gonna be annoyed but love you for it. No matter what you do, you will be there to protect him and stand up for him."

"You too!"

"Oh hell yeah I will!"

---

And they are right about that. Yeah sure, Lizzie was gone under the ice for years due to a freak accident thinking she was goner. Having Jason and Tony feeling down in the dumps for some time.

But when that girl returned, her mama bird side came with her. And the man who was her right hand was more than happy about that.

"He's insane!" Liz yelled with a sigh, pointing at her nephew, "You're insane."

"Hello?! Have you met me?" Tony replied with a chuckle, "I think Pepper would love a big bunny for an anniversary slash Christmas present."

"Okay I dealt the whole 'I'm Iron Man, I can do whatever the hell I want' thing. But your Tony Stark! My Tony Stark, use that head of yours is a big bunny a good idea?"

"JJ gets you big jewelry and spoils you! I blame him for my actions, the bunny stays."

"Oh jeez. Did you at least get dinner ready?"

"Yeah it's pizza tonight. Why are you acting so uptight lately?"

Elizabeth sighed, "I've been asleep for years in ice and I come back to find you as Iron Man. A superhero. I know it's been an year now, but a part of me is still scared your gonna blow it!"

Tony chuckled pulling his auntie into a hug, "Oh Liz, it's me we're talking about. Hell, JJ is still terrified for my life. And honestly, I've already it blew it last year, in New York. I am stressed but I will be fine.."

"I know about your late night snacking and sleepless night, Tony. I'm worried about you. We all are."

"I know you are..but if anything happens, I will tell you. I promise."

~~~

Last forward to Christmas time, once the house blew up and JARVIS announces Tony's anxiety problems to everyone after arriving at the snowy side of the U.S. before shutting off.

Soon enough, they're dragging themselves across the snow to find a safe house. Rei's suit is being dragged across the snow, as he decide to start helping his godfather.

Liz snaps, "Anything you want to tell me?!"

"Okay in my defense I was gonna tell you soon." Tony winced.

"When?!"

"I was gonna make you an omelette and tell you about it!"

"Oh my god!"

Jason sighed dragging the Iron Man suit with them across with snow as the night fall onto of them.

"You two knew about this?! This whole time and didn't think of telling me?!" Jason yelled.

"I thought you knew about this! Or that he told you!" Liz yelled back.

"Great, now Ma and Pops are fighting." Rei added sarcastically, "Good job, Dad!"

Tony turned look at his son, “I’m sorry, how is this my fault?”

“Isn’t everything?”

“This is unbelievable.”

----

Other times, Jason and Elizabeth would be protecting themselves or their kids presence even when the guy isn't nearby.

Such as 2014, when they were called by SHIELD when it came to Alexander Pierce wanting their signature onto the new helicarriers.

Jason was tired as he asked, "Okay Pierce, what the hell is this?"

Elizabeth was standing next to him and pressed, "Mr. Secertary, what he meant is there a reason you've asked us to come here?"

"Signature, Mr. Underwood and Miss Stark." Said Pierce holding out pens, "As well, I was hoping you ask your nephew to stop by my niece's birthday party as a favor for Nick."

"He's our nephew, not a party entertainer." Elizabeth said with a raise eyebrow.

"Unless it's for his own children, and at the moment he's not dealing with your favors." Jason added, "What's the favor you're doing for Nick?"

"That's classified information, sir." Pierce replied.

"Of course it is..you know, it was a pretty long day and I don't want to be here. Matter a fact, none of us want to be to here! So good night Alexander." Elizabeth said standing up from her chair.

Jason stood up following her, opening the door for the girl as he gave Pierce an odd look before walking out. However that didn’t stop Elizabeth Stark to get information later on that day, returning to Alexander Pierce’s office after cooling down to get any information needed.

——

Sometimes due to Jason and Elizabeth being so close to Tony, along with their godchildren they get mistaken for the actual parents. Hell, even for being a couple more than once.

Such as in the early to late 2010s, Justin Hammer once asked, “Are theses your parents, Stark? I thought they were dead..”

Tony would give an sarcastic smile and reply, “Aw Hammer, you’re jealous? Too bad not everyone was given 3 sets of parents.”

“Three?”

“Oh yeah, didn’t you hear? Or were you too busy washing yourself in that horrible 80s cologne?”

Justin scoffed, “Damn. But seriously, are they giving out set of parents for free or what?”

“No. They’re mine, you can’t have them.” Tony added with a smirk.

~~~

Or when Fury called Tony and The Avengers out a few times, he will tend to bring JJ and Liz names into conversation, using the term parents. Such as in 2015, when they are all in Clint’s Barn. Also known as The Safe House.

Everyone was in the kitchen, including the teens and kids. Some were at the table such as Natasha, Bruce, Rick, Ava, Rei and Rochelle. Others were surrounding the area near the sink and fridge across from the kitchen island, such as Tony, Clint and Steve with Liane and Luna.

Clint’s wife Laura was listening in as the younger kids were wondering around.

Elizabeth was drying dishes as Jason washed them, meanwhile Fury was finishing placing some orange slices on a plate.

Nat spoke up, “You know boss, when I was hoping I saw ya, you would have more than that.”

Fury replied, “I do. I have you. Back in the day, I had eyes everything, ears everywhere else. You kids have all the things you can dream to use, Stark’s parents didn’t have much to work with beforehand but they made do. Now here we are, back on earth with nothing but our wit and our willingness to do good.”

Jason added, “Just like old times, huh? Rehashing a plan during dinner, then collaborating in the morning to figure out what can be done..”

“Ain’t that the truth. Nothing but our strength to save the world and make a difference for others.” Elizabeth commented with a grin.

Fury gave them a half smile and continued his speech, “Ultron says The Avengers are the only thing between him and his mission. And weather or not he admits it, his mission is global destruction. All this lay in the grave. So stand, out with the platinum bastard.”

Natasha winked at Rick and Rochelle before saying with a smirk, “Steve doesn’t like that kinda talk.”

Steve gave her a humorous mock glare, “You know what, Romanoff?”

The teens and young adults in the room snorted and chuckled. The group kept talking, figuring out what will they all do next, with the young members of the team chiming into the conversations.

Even Jason mentioned, “You can try Pentagon's firewall, are they open this time?”

“That could work, they are still roughly open this time and hour.” Elizabeth comments.

“Should i know why you know that?”

“I had to message the Pentagon years ago to reach an barrier of systemic risks, for SHIELD’s locating tactics. And Tony did something he wasn’t supposed to..”

“Oh god, what was it this time?”

Fury ate his orange slice answering, “You’re boy cracked into SHIELD systemic burns, but beforehand he cracked their firewall.”

“That’s something, I do think I remember he did!” He replied chuckling, “We got mysterious calls afterwards for weeks.”

Tony chimed in with a grin sounding proud and said, “I cracked the Pentagon’s firewall in high school on a dare and got a sweet deal afterwards.”

Elizabeth grinned brightly, “That’s my boy! Definitely a win in my books.”

“And me? I cracked into SHIELD firewall too multiple times.” Rei added with a sly smile, as you could hear his godfather holding back his laughter in the background.

“I love you too, kiddo!” She replied to her sarcastic godson, “Both of you are the reasons for the facility's cyber-security sub-bar.”

Interlude: The Sight of Stars

20th of Ninthmoon 1012 AG, Guardia Castle

“Go get daddy! All done work!” Zarya cried out happily as she ran up the road to the castle.

“Stop and wait, Zarya!” called Lucca, trying her best to keep up with her daughter.

Zarya’s galloping run came to a stop, but only briefly as she looked over her shoulder to ensure her mom was still following. She couldn’t wait and she knew where the castle was. As soon as Lucca was right behind her, Zarya resumed running up the road. The cycle of running and stopping continued until mother and daughter reached the castle gates.

Zarya got to the gate first, stopping and looking at a guard. She tilted her head slightly and whispered something under her breath. The guards smiled and looked to Lucca as she caught up once more before allowing the two into the castle.

~o~O~o~

Meanwhile, Janus had just finished tutoring Liz and Oren. While he had come a long way in understanding modern science and technology as well as learning to read Guardian, Janus had a better understanding of history and math so he would go to the castle once a week to help educate Liz and Oren for Crono and Marle. He had hoped to bring Zarya along but Zarya proved a bit too immature and impatient to sit for lessons when Liz and Oren needed to focus on reading their books.

Crono and Marle dismissed their children from their lessons before they started to chat with Janus about how Lucca and Zarya were doing. Suddenly, an excited squeal and the familiar call of “Daddy!!” echoed through the library.

“How’s my little star?” Janus asked sweetly as he turned to pick up Zarya and give her a hug. Seeing Lucca right behind Zarya, he smiled and greeted her as well.

Zarya beamed and wrapped her arms around her dad to give him a big hug. She glanced over his shoulder and saw Crono and Marle. Zarya knew that her dad and mom said their friends were the king and queen but she always called them “Uncle Crono” and “Auntie Marle.” 

“Auntie Marle snow. Uncle Crono sparkles…”

Janus and Lucca looked at their daughter, puzzled. Janus turned to Crono and Marle. Crono and Marle shared the same perplexed look. Zarya spoke very few words, a result of Janus refusing to force her to fit in with other kids her age. While Crono and Marle didn’t fully understand why he wouldn’t want her to talk as their children had at that age, they accepted this was something he and Lucca wouldn’t yield on.

As a result, most of Zarya’s speech came in the form of echoing what was said to her. Spontaneous speech was usually a cause for praise but right now the adults in the room were unsure of what to say. 

Zarya wriggled out of Janus’s grasp and walked over to Crono and Marle. She looked at Marle and smiled. “Snow.”

Janus watched as Zarya waved her hands around Marle and giggled. He looked up at Crono and for a brief moment, the two men looked each other in the eyes. Janus could see the faint spark of Crono’s or Marle’s magic around them if he focused although he really had no need to do it. A thought dawned on Janus and he walked over to Zarya.

“Zarya… where are the snowflakes?”

After a moment of waving her hands around, Zarya pointed up at Marle. Janus nodded. He pointed at himself. “Does Daddy… sparkle?”

“Daddy…. Daddy dark sparkles. Uncle Crono…. bright sparkles.”

“And Mommy?” asked Lucca.

Zarya turned and looked at her, a serious and thoughtful expression on her young face. After a moment of silence, Zarya remarked, “Mommy… red and orange sparkles.”

“She can see our magic?” Marle asked quietly, looking at Janus and Lucca.

Janus looked at his friends and said, “I wondered if Zarya had the potential for magic but to see our auras so clearly at her age...”

He watched as Zarya had seemed to move on to climbing into a chair and lining up the books by size on the table as he continued, “I know I mentioned it years ago but I need to concentrate to see your magic and I know I wasn’t able to do it that well at as a child back in Zeal.”

“Rain and snow.”

The four adults looked over at Zarya who had stopped her book arranging and was now looking at Oren and Liz who had returned to the library. Liz had two wooden bokkens in her arms and reminded Crono about his promise to teach her and Oren.

“I’ll be right there, kiddo,” Crono assured. “Why don’t you and your brother go wait for me in the courtyard?”

Liz nodded before leading her brother back down the hall. Oren managed a quick greeting to Zarya and the grownups before following his sister, disappearing down the hallway.

Zarya began giggling. Before Janus or Lucca could ask her what was so funny, Zarya said, “Oh no, it’s raining.”

“Oren’s all wet,” she added, still giggling. “Liz so cold.”

If Zarya hadn’t just made it clear that she could see their own magic and what kind they had, none of the adults present would have ever guessed why Zarya would make such an odd series of remarks. Janus turned to look towards Crono and Marle and he could see the shocked looks on their faces.

“Janus… What does this mean?” Marle asked in a hushed tone. “Is she saying the kids have magic too?”

Janus wasn’t sure what this meant. He could barely perceive everyone’s magic and only if he made the effort to focus on them. Zarya was apparently able to see all of their magic vividly and with no effort.

“I think it means they have magic too,” he replied quietly, keeping an eye on Zarya as he spoke. “They probably inherited from you two because Spekkio awakened your abilities…. Just as Zarya must have magic because of Lucca and I.”

Crono frowned slightly. “They aren’t going to start accidentally casting spells are they?”

Janus thought about this. Circumstances in Zeal had been different. Children generally started some magical training at Oren’s age and they grew up knowing their element and how to utilize it. Aside from himself, there was no “wait and see” approach to finding out a child had magic or what kind.

“As long as they’re unaware, they shouldn’t be able to invoke any magic,” he finally replied. “At least, I don’t think so… Only reason I did anything involuntarily was because of stress and anger… and these kids haven’t had the life I did.”

“Maybe we should ask Melichor,” Lucca remarked. “He might have an idea of what we should do.”

Crono sighed. “Well, I guess I should be grateful neither of them are gonna accidentally throw lightning at me… and I better not keep them waiting.”

Giving Marle a quick kiss, Crono bid farewell to everyone and departed to teach Liz and Oren some swordplay. 

After Crono had left, Marle looked to her friends and asked how it was possible for neither child to have Crono’s magic. Lucca agreed with Marle.

“Typically a child takes after one parent or another,” Janus explained. “Like how my sister and I had the same affinity as one of our parents… Schala and my father were Light while I have Shadow like my mother had. However, sometimes if other elements are in a bloodline, they’d come up in later generations.”

Suddenly it dawned on Marle. There was only one explanation for Oren supposedly having water magic. “Glenn had water magic. That’s why Oren must have that type.”

“Daddy cook lunch?” Zarya suddenly chimed. “Sing and cook?”

Janus glanced up at the clock in the library. Lunch wasn’t for another hour but asking for food was one way Zarya showed that she was bored and wanted to go home.

“You don’t want to watch your cousins play for a while and have lunch at the castle?” Lucca asked with a smile.

“Noooo,” Zarya droned out. “I waaaant dad-dy cook my lunch please-okay.”

“I guess that’s our cue to leave,” Janus chuckled.

Marle nodded. She followed Janus, Lucca and Zarya to the castle gates and bid them farewell as the Ashtears promised to see her and everyone tomorrow. Marle lingered at the top of the stairs, the revelation that her children had magic starting to fill her mind. She was not ready to tell Liz and Oren about what had happened all those years ago. She was sure Crono, Lucca and Janus felt the same way. It wasn’t time yet.

~o~O~o~

A week later, Janus would inform her and Crono that he had contacted Melichor and Melichor was just as surprised about Zarya’s ability to see magic so vividly. No one in Zeal had ever had such an ability to his knowledge. Yes the Enlightened had a sixth sense about magic so to speak but to see it visually as Zarya apparently did was unheard of.

Melichor also confirmed Janus’s theory that the children wouldn’t accidentally start casting spells. He did note, however, that there was a chance of them eventually manifesting some ability later in life as Janus had but he couldn’t be sure how or when. While Melichor suggested Janus and the others be open with the children, the group of friends mutually agreed that it would be best to hold off for now. After all, they were the only people in the modern world with magic and they didn’t want their children to feel like outsiders. To them, life was hard enough for the kids without adding magic powers into the mix.

*runs over to you and throws (gently) a reusable water bottle to your face* Stay hydrated Rowan 😭

For the ask game, I’m curious to know what you’d answer to question nº25 :)

(Sends you lots of virtual hugs or whatever you need most rn 💜)

[bonk] im trying ><! thank u liz 💜💜💜 youre the best

25. what is a weird, hyper-specific detail you know about one of your characters that is completely irrelevant to the story?

this is... Sort of relevant to the story, but on our way up!akk is specifically not very good at cooking (as opposed to aye, who is and does it as a bonding activity with his mom). i got into this a little in the prompt i did for tiis, but. i think he got a bit spoiled by his parents on that front as a kid and didn't put effort into learning to do it until it was much too late. plus thailand also has a much bigger, like street food culture than anywhere i've ever been, so when he moves to suppalo i imagine that's how he gets by, mostly by buying cheap premade street food meals. anyway my point here is: akk, of the irresistable-to-adults good boy manners and wide innocent eyes, is universally beloved by the street food vendors he goes to (see the aunties from e6) and they gossip constantly about him. this eventually extends to the market aunties in bangkok in ch4, who eventually replace beam as jai's boyfriend in their stories with akk since he starts going more often with her lmao. aye hates that

🧸💗 my 3 week journey!

i started a 3 week challenge/journey. 3 weeks ago, i was in a slump! i was in a relationship that had been draining me and i didn’t realize at the time. i would overthink then end up crying :( i was 1 week into the challenge at that point.

i took the decision to end the relationship and it’s actually been better. i used one of our last conversations as workout motivation lmao. i began to workout more often, listen to subliminals overnight and pray more often. my relationship with God has been getting better and i’ve done better since i started this challenge.

i divided my school holidays (3 weeks) into 3 different sections, each section focusing on different aspects and areas i wanted to better!

i watched youtubers that make me very happy (nicole laeno and adelaine morin) and youtubers that would better my self concept, productivity and give me good advice (tam kaur, angel gray and the wizard liz).

since each week had a theme, i developed a subliminal playlist that fit for the overall challenge and the individual week.

My Results!!

i took liz’s advice! i made a mind movie but with ONE affirmation, "i have all my desires". i consistently watched this, prayed and listened to subliminals.

fast forward and i got my nails done, hair done, HUNG OUT WITH MY ONLINE BEST FRIEND, my aunty bought me the maybelline lifter gloss and had my teenage main character moment too!!

if anyone is looking for motivation or a sign to do something similar, THIS IS IT!!

stay blessed :)

Love, Love Me Do… || Accepting

How physically attracted they are to your muse:

"Come'n join us, Liz." I'd sooner drink bleach, try an' mahalo. "No can, Reg. So busy." She flips the page of her medical journal. Beth will never understand why people seem to think Reg is the more attractive of the twins, when in her estimation he oozes smarm like a snake-oil salesman. It isn't that she can't see the superficial resemblance between the two brothers; they're of a similar height {Ron is the taller of them}, the same dark-as-sin eyes though in the light, she can see the striations of light in Ron's and she's never been that close to Reg. They both have boxed throughout their lives but where Reg might go for speed, Ron is all power. Maybe the difference between a buck and a bull. Even if hers is more Ferdinand than the Minotaur. Not that he can't be just as devastating, she's watched him spar with Big Pat and she cannot fathom being on the receiving end of that sort of punishment. Where as women tend to flock to Reg's Plasticine smiles and easy flattery, Beth finds his younger brother to be perhaps the most genuinely handsome man, despite his trouble with emotive expression. From his heavy hanging brow to the temptation that will forever be epitomised by the fullness of his lips, to his unquestionable presence, Beth can't see Reg for how bright Ron shines in her skies. He doesn't ever really see it though, and sometimes laments himself. He doesn't understand that she likes the fact that he's rounder in the face, softer in the body. Everything about him is perfect, to her. And then he walks into the room, and everything else just ceases to exist as she smiles up at him. 2. How romantically attracted they are to your muse: It's one of those vocalisations in her ear that she translates into a 'Ere, now. His hands rest on her wrists as they stir the bio-hazard orange powder into the buttered noodles. So maybe she giggled over it being called 'cheesy pasta' as opposed to mac & cheese, but it's still the same thing, but better yet… they're making it together. On the stove. There's no fire or smoke or ruined pot. Her nose nudges his jaw as she tells him it's time to add the milk. They've got plates on the counter. Rainbow-hued vegetables on a bed of greens they playfully tossed and dressed. A bottle of wine breathing, and a warmed loaf of Auntie May's bread resting in its basket. Music playing and the pack tuckered out from their long walk and earlier supper. This is happiness. This is…everything she could ask for, really. She doesn't care for the constant attention one or the other draws in public, the loudness of the establishments the other Kray couple seem to have mixed feelings about; Reg craving every glittery star-soaked moment of it, and Frances wishing she could trade places with Beth, at least emotionally. No, it's the little victories; managing to cook a meal together, an evening spent over puzzles or quietly curled up and reading their own books, strolling through the park hand-in-hand. They can be whatever they want to be, and what she really wants is just to be Ron's lass, even if it took her a couple of years to realise it. He has been her staunchest of companions, a truly good friend and incredibly decent man. Plus, he smells really good and gives the best hugs. Sometimes, the L word doesn't seem like such a terrible thing after all. 3. How often they would like to have sex with yours:

Beth is absolutely shocked by the question or at least by the small woman asking it. It takes a few moments for everything to process, to get put together in its bits and fragments glued together by a mixed cement of boiling anger and biting antagonism when she realises how the question was spoken. It takes her a solid minute not to throw verbal daggers; that maybe it isn't Ron himself that displeases Frances but maybe the fact that her husband can't seem to satisfy her which gives her an overall distaste for the act. Fortunately for both of them and the men absent from this lunch that Beth's better angels are battle-forged and more than a match for her own devils. She takes a sip of her tea and sighs a calming breath. "Not dat I t'ink it a very appropriate question, but f' da sake of what you might have heard or be t'inkin'… In da nearly seven year I've known Ron, even da idea of kissin' him much less any kine else took years t' come ovah eiddah of us. We've nevah been in a rush t' tear each oddah clo'se off, even if I t'ink he had dat urge mebbe before I did. An it came t' a surprise for bo'd of us, believe me." There's never been shame shared between them, and there'd been extensive conversation surrounding this kind of physical intimacy, both explaining themselves and their experiences, or lack thereof. Every inch of gained ground was taken in its own time, neither one willing to push the other's boundaries of comfort, something she doesn't think Frances really understands. She also doesn't understand, bless her, how sometimes it is difficult to make stars align; balancing the energy and the desire, their demanding work lives, and of course their other struggles. Depending on medications, the spirit might be willing, but the flesh is definitely weak. "I'm jus' gonna say…normal amount. Sometimes two t' four time a night, sometimes once a week, sometimes not a' all. Sometimes, wha' beddah but t' curl 'round each oddah an' jus' breathe." She enunciates that last word carefully. "Hand t' God, d'ough? Dere is a couple of kine he does when he exercisin' dat just…" She shivers, just thinking about it. It's that thing with his hips, and the one with his shoulders before or after dropping someone in a power bomb.

"…Is sex personified, an' inokea who might be watchin'." 4. Where they would most likely have sex with yours: It isn't that Beth keeps a mental check-box or running tally but… well. There is the shower. And the bed. And the sofa in the parlour or its cushions on the floor, or even no cushions, just floor. There's the kitchen counter and the weight bench. A perhaps better question would be, what locations would be off-limits, a much shorter list to be sure. Temptation has given her thoughts about the back of the car but there's not a privacy divider thick enough to make Ron comfortable with that, and the same might be said about the Trader, the A&E department, or the confessional booth at her Church. "I migh' be goin' t' hell an' I'm bring him wi' me." 5. Whether they think yours would be “good” in bed:

If asked before she had the experience to speak of, she might have said something vaguely ambivalent. It was not as if she didn't know he had experience with his gentleman loves, he'd been very upfront and honest about that, going so far as to let her ask questions mostly because she was respectful with them and explained that she really had no experience of her own. She did tell him about the Talk with her brother, how it came about and what she took away from it, drilled into her head. She could have sworn he'd winced even if it was all verbal and nothing quite in his face, and tried to tell her that maybe Andy hadn't exactly been…truthful. He has about the same experience with women as she does with anyone, and maybe that makes a difference? But slowly over time, hand-holds and long conversations had turned to snuggling. Had become the shyest of kisses. Had become…well, a whole lot of everything, hadn't it? Everything is a shared experience, every exploration or touch. Learning. Now, if asked? "….make m' bones melt."

His head rises just like Claude's ears perk forward, she'd been quiet for hours now, chasing little quizzes from her friends' social media. The inquiry of what she'd said comes in a little sound at the back of his throat, one hand brushing a thumb over the curve of the ankle in his lap as he turns away from the documentary he's watching, pausing the stream. She smiles and turns her head away, that faint hue of colour painting her cheeks threatening to give her away. "Uh. I mean. I was… jus'… t'inkin' abou' how wonderful ya are." 6. What titles / nicknames my muse would like to call yours during sex: She knows there's respect in the way they call him the Colonel at times, the lord of his manor he confirms. She knows he doesn't mind when she calls him Kanuha ~sullen one~ as it acknowledges the struggle to face without putting on one of his many emotional masks on, but in her own soft, adoring slant. She doesn't use his full name, has a little trouble getting around all of the syllables, so she'd likely slide deep into her own past if she did. Lonala. Lona. A soft but guttural sound scraped up from the sea-bed of her soul that defies translation into any human language. The closest approximation, maybe, would be the sound of Pele's Blood meeting Namaka's cold embrace; sea and fire creating something new between disparate elements.

7. Up to 3 kinks they would like to explore with yours ( with consent of course ): The first two that come to mind are things they have discussed before; she respects his lack of regard when it comes to daring something so personal in any kind of public medium, his inability to stomach eyes upon him, and the vulnerability would drive him to the brink of madness. The second was born from noticing just how keen she is with his hand resting around the column of her throat, closing around her with just a slight pressure; he'd not dissuade her from that, but he said he'd not tolerate anything more restrictive and confining. She knows exactly where that stems from, too and refuses to bring it up for the sake of his comfort. He said he'd be very good though, if she were to ask nicely, though. She glances down at her losing round of cards in hand, and spends a moment wondering exactly how he'd managed to do it, she was sure he'd had nothing more than two pair, even with the river. "Well, ya 'ready know I love when ya bite jus so. An'…uhm. You know. When you. An' you're between my… so. Yeah, dat is really, really nice too… so… mebbe mo' beddah I aks you…wha' ya got in mind?" 8. What sort of sex they’d prefer to have with yours ( slow & sensual, quickie, etc. ): She doesn't think she could move even if the flat caught fire; every muscle in her body has become liquefied and there's still heat like the Pacific Rim of Fire flowing through her in waves. He doesn't flop onto his back as much as he slowly rolls onto it, pulling her along so that he can wrap his arm around her waist. His breath is just as ragged as her own, the dampness is inconclusive whether the sweat on their skin belongs to one or the other, when the truth is it is both. For all that he might say he lacks in experience, he certainly makes up with sensuality and care and time taken for them both. Ron's stamina in the ring has no match with the kind he has in their bed, though she has to admit she's a little curious if she can make him lose his mind with so much want that they barely get past the front door… Whatever spark caught his tinder though has a slow-as-tree-growth but honest smile parting his lips that she becomes lost in before the faintest press of his fingertips mould to her jaw, raising her eyes all that much higher. Before she knows it, she's settled over him with just that rasp-whisper of his voice drenching her in his "C'mere." 9. What type of relationship my muse would like to form with yours. ( typical couple, friends with benefits, etc. ): She doesn't notice the twitch in her own hand as she pours Miss Violet a fresh cup of tea. Something about the woman's question reminds Beth of the way the Admiral asks exactly what she thinks she's doing, and she has to bite back the rise of her bile in the back of her throat. To school her face into a mien of absolute meekness and neutrality. She cannot lash out at Ron's mother like she can his brother, and has to remind herself that Violet has every reason to be concerned about her and Ron; he's Violet's youngest, and maybe she has more of a mother's understanding with Reg and Frances than she ever cared to know. In her position, what would Beth do? Likely far worse. "I've got to be completely honest with you, ma'am," Beth begins so slowly, so very carefully. "When I met him all those years ago, I could never have imagined what we would be today. You've raised yourself an incredibly kind, patient, generous and loving man, and I consider myself both lucky and grateful to you. An' as much as you've put into him, he'd done just as much making himself. And believe me when I say I know it was a rough road for him. So if I had to say what I want for him? Is his health and well being, however it comes. If there's a place for me? I think it would be best left for us to decide together." Beth's entire face and demeanour soften after a moment, a glimpse beneath all that she is and was trained to be. "But ever he asked? I'd say yes."

Alright yall, ya gurl drank an entire can of Warheads Four Loko so don't minhd these drunken ramblings cuz these a re ideas ive had for the LONHGEST time i wanted to get out there with the good chance most of them wont go anywhererr:

The wizard in white is an undercover Japanese auror. kazuhiro shiratori is simply his alias. His true identity is Toshiro Ketsueki (???). Yes, he's Victor's older brother and is the same age as Ricardo.

One brother is named Toshiro and the other is named Victor...They're half brothers, much how Reina and Ricaro are half siblings. Yes we'll go with that.

We ship Ricardo x Toshiro in this au. They get married so Rel has two dads. Victor is her uncle and he adores that little munchkin.

Rowan and McNully are a happily married couple. They have the perfect dynamic in my opinion. Rowan replaces Binns by early 1992 after the dude accidentally moves on to the afterlife. Rowan is the one that fills in Harry and friends on the history ofthe Chamer of Secrets.

Thanks to a lil bit of spatial magic, Reina's bakery caters to both Magic and non-magic folk. Her bakery caters to the former in Diagon Alley, and to the latter right outside in London. Non-magic folks simply believe her bakery has a Witchy theme to it, and her unique recipes proved to be a hit.

In addition to dominican styled goods, reina also offers vegan and gluten free options for her clients thanks to some input from liz.

When it comes to their respective businesses, both Ricardo and Reina are very pro-union. They care deeply for the well-being of their employees, and make sure they're paid living wages.

Since we'll likely never get official names, the two oldest of Reina and Talbott's quadruplets, Corvo and Ava, would be named after Talbott's parents to honor them.

Ben and Ismelda eventually have twins. After Voldemort's defeat, they adopt Merula's daughter and raise her as their own. The girl knows who her mother was, but views Ben and Ismelda as her true parents. Haven't decided on her name yet.

In terms of Hogwarts Legacy, the main focus would be Reina's ancestor Angela Caelestis. She'd transfer to Hogwarts for her 5th year and would've been Sorted into Ravenclaw, and be a close ally to the Goblins fighting for their freedom. (My knowledge on the game itself isn't the best since I don't really play mainline HP games anyway-last one i played was quidditch wortld cup on the gamecube lmao)

Since Magic Awakened is set in 2008, it would mean that Reina and Tlabotts quads would have been approve to attend the school at age 10 rather than 11.

I used to have a Winx Club au that didn't really go anywhere since I gave up after I couldn't depict Reina in the show's style that well. For that setting, schools life Alfea, Cloud Tower and Red Fountain are co-ed. We're talking male fairies, witches/wizards and female warriors.

Reina, Rowan and a few others attend Cloud Tower. They'd be a year above the Winx but a year below the Trix. They'd absolutely ally with the Winx. Reina is known as the Rose Witch and Rowan is the Paper Witch. In a Time Skip, Reina would still marry Talbott, open her bakery, and they'd have their quadruplets. The Winx would be honorary aunties to the kids.

In a DC au, Reina would be around the same age as Bruce Wayne, and her kids would be slightly older than Nightwing/Dick Grayson. Ricardo himself would be closer to Alfreds age since his own granchild would be the same age as Jason Todd/Red Hood. Ricardo would also be a rainbow-themed magically powered hero under the name of Arcus.

DMC AU: Reina is the same age as Dante and Vergil, while her quiadds are the same age as Nero. Reina and her kids have a Devil Trigger because of their Demon Ancestry.

Resident Evil AU: Ricardo is the same age as Albert Wesker. Known as Subject 53, Ricardo was the product of what was known as Project Arcus. The intent was to create a bioweapon that could control the masses through hallucinations thanks to the A-Virus. At age 13, Ricardo broke free from captivity by slaughtering his tormentors and livng life on his terms, becoming a game developer. In the brief time he met Albert Wesker and William Birkin in the 80s, he viewed the two of them as good friends, being completely unaware of what the two were really up to. Ricardo's advnaced healing factor makes him functionally immortal, ensuring he'll only die of old age.

Reina was abducted as an infant in the 70s and experimented on for Project Flora, where she was subject 54. The goal was to create a bioweapon that could control all of the known Flora as a form of control on the populace. She was soon rescued by her father, having no memory of her time in captivity. While she can summon and control all existing plants, Reina instead settled into a simple life where she became a baker.

Chapter 7

“Sophia called her lawyers in the middle of the night. And now she’s rushed the ceremony; it’s in thirty minutes.”

Of course she is. Doesn’t want her hubby-to-be getting cold feet. 

I grinned and climbed in. And even though I knew this was probably the last time we would be together for awhile, I pushed all my worries away and just relished in the fact that I had the best fucking guys in the world. And that Sophia had none.

Chapter 7 summary: Now that Liz knows what she has to do, she goes back downstairs, where she writes her boys a note, packs up some clothes with the book, and then goes to find her new allies. In a room with Liam and Ember, the three of them perform a ritual that’ll break the bond between Liz and boys. After it’s over, she’s surprised that she still feels love for them, and that it hadn’t been a magically induced love. Liam tells her that if they all try to go back to how things had been, that it’ll break the book all over again. But they can reform their bond if they work hard at it. 

Then, he tells her that Sophia’s bonding to Hunter is in 30 minutes, so she should go. She goes, where she meets back up with the rest of the boys, who are also upset about this, but pleased to hear 1) the book was fixed and 2) they can also fix their bond. They think that part of it might be to challenge Sophia for her position as alpha (even though the dragons don’t have a similar counterpart). Liz goes back, where she finds Hunter getting ready. They say goodbye, and Hunter promises that he’ll try to fight the bond. That he’s never heard of it before, but that people also bond because they’re in love. Not because they’re being blackmailed. Sophia comes in as the two of them kiss goodbye, and she’s pissed as hell. 

Sophia’s taste in wedding decor is tacky as get out: everything is gold, and there are flames that Liz thinks is either a metaphor for their love, or simply because they’re dragons. She stands with the rest of her boys and they watch the ceremony. As they’re watching it, Liz starts focusing really hard on her mother’s necklace, and then the boys start to pour all of their love into the necklace as well. This creates a huge magical event that literally sucks the oxygen from the room, and puts out all of the fires. 

Hunter then announces to everybody that Sophia is forcing him to do this, and that he really loves Liz. Then this random dragon, seemingly Sophia’s auntie, starts to attack them, calling Liz a “slut wolf”. Avery stays behind to hold her back, while the others are quick to shuffle Liz and Hunter from the room. Outside, Liz laughs over how she’s going to have everything, yet Sophia ended up with nothing. 

Epilogue

Finally, Easton choked out what he'd come in to say. “Guys, you’re never going to believe what I found -- it's the answer.”

Epilogue summary: It’s been two weeks since the disastrous forced-bonding ceremony, and Liz has been forced to keep her distance from all of her boys. What’s worse is that Sophia is keeping Hunter tied up with legal stuff, which is dumb but whatever. 

Anyway, he invited her to this fancy party at the palace, so she went, but Hunter isn’t even there. He finally comes to find her, leads her away from the ballroom, and then breaks into an office. He tells her that he knows that if they really love one another, then nothing else matters. The two of them start to bang, but right before there’s actually penetration, he says that she’s his. Liz feels another bond forming between the two of them because of this. They then bang. 

After they’re finished, he tells her to get herself cleaned up, to go say goodbye to the other boys, and that they’re going home, because he’s going to bang her all night long. However, before they can do this, the door opens and the rest of the boys come in, seemingly uncaring about what they almost walked in on. Easton tells them that he’s figured out how to fix everything.

Lucian rolled his eyes, still searching for his sister. "Quicksilver is missing too, so Kol and I can still look," he pointed out, ignoring Elijah's look as he opened another door, nose wrinkling as all three of them stared into the open sky. "We should probably get this fixed reasonably soon," Lucian admitted, closing the door and locking it.

"Katerina and I made a list of needed repairs but so much shit has happened recently and Lucian Castle ate the stonemasons that we hired while he tried to fulfill Klaus's bounty so..." Lucian shrugged, frowning slightly. "That was money that was just thrown away. Kat seriously contemplated cursing Klaus's entire sireline for a week after that," he continued, opening a linen closet and lifting up the thick animal pelts, frown growing. "She hates the cold, so if she couldn't find a fire last night she would have buried herself in a linen closet to keep warm, so search those too. Quicksilver will be by the closest window."

"I threw up on Uncle Anders last year cause I ate all the candy, Grandma Liz and Saint Nicholas brought me, and my tummy still hurt." Elias informed his father, munching on another strawberry. "Mommy gave me a bath and Grandma Liz made me some medicine, then I got to sleep in Grandma's bed, with her soft blanket Grandpa got her from the capital." The little boy frowned, eyes going sad. "It's all gone now. The Lockwoods burnt it all. Uncle Anders was gunna die too, but Auntie Katerina saved him." He informed his parents, taking a drink of his milk, looking at his father. "You should give Dragon Kol a Lucian. Uncle Kol likes Uncle Lucian lots, they're best friends."

this would be fun to watch

Hi just wanna say first off that Tumbletta is 👌

I’ve been in a Lizadora mood as of late so I will blabber off info about her and some crossover w your Oc’s:

When Grizabella left, she sort of took over her duties as Old D’s mate. While she and Deut don’t love each other like that, Liz wasn’t about to let the Tribe go into shambles because Griz wasn’t there to organize certain things or help with the kittens. She also took over in mothering the Deuteronomy Brothers for the remainder of their childhoods, something that may have accidentally contributed to Macavity’s evil because he felt like everyone was forgetting about his real Mother super fast.

I feel like Munkustrap and Tugger definitely view Lizadora as a mother figure, they looked to her for support when Mac turned dark and they probably asked for her blessing alongside Old Deut’s when they found their mates.

Despite having some form of gigantism (Maine Coon genetics baby) and generally being very bulky, she’s nearly just as graceful as other Jellicles. She’s usually at the bottom of the pyramid or the one to lift cats up, though.

She is absolutely in love with Hestia when Tugger and Misto bring her back. She always wanted a granddaughter to spoil, and you’d best believe she spoils Hestia and all the other grandkids rotten. All the kittens see Auntie Liz as a big playground because...she is, so she’s very popular for their roughhousing games and such.

I feel like Tumbles was initially terrified to face Lizadora when he and Hestia started courting, literally just because lady is massive and v protective of her fam. But nah she didn’t intimidate him or anything she just broke his back in a “welcome to the family!” Bear hug.

When Grizabella went to the heaviside layer, Lizadora was the last one sitting that night, just staring at the stars and hoping her sister finally got the happiness she wanted.

i'm CRYING liz my beloved <3

Hestia would ADORE her Auntie Liz, their size difference is making me emotional bc can you imagine???? big fluffy Liz with little tiny kitten Hestia tucked away in her fur?????
