Send “you’re kinda cute” for my muse’s reaction || Selectively accepting !
@advnterccs sent: “you’re kinda cute” { To your Rick from my Rick fdshjk }
Tumblr media
It was a quiet night, not unlike any other that didn't see them going on some crazy adventure around the multiverse, either each with his own Morty or the four of them as a group.
Truth to be told, Rick had been planning to go on a trip after dinner, but Beth had forbidden it. Apparently, Morty's grades had been plunging into the abyss once again and he had some stupid test he needed to study for. Both the scientist and the teen had grumbled at that, but she had been adamant and they had eventually been forced to give in.
Rick had made a mental note to do something about the boy's grades, because he refused to let something as idiotic as school stand in the way of their adventures, but, all in all, he couldn't say that he was irreparably disappointed by the change of plans. After all, he had been given the chance to spend the night with his boyfriend, which was the only thing he enjoyed as much as roaming and spreading chaos around the multiverse.
The two of them had decided to ditch the garage for once and, instead, had climbed their way up to the roof, not before having dumped through a portal enough booze and weed to last for the whole night.
The air was pleasantly chill and, above them, the dark sky was clear, not even a cloud in sight. The light pollution of the city didn't allow the stars to be fully visible, but it was enough to contribute to the peaceful atmosphere they were basking in.
If asked, Rick couldn't have said for how long they had been there, chatting about everything and nothing, going through their stash and simply enjoying each other company. Time seemed to have lost meaning, as it often did when they were together, and the fact that they were high and half drunk surely wasn't helping them keeping track of the ticking of the clock.
At one point, his body had gotten so relaxed that he had slumped against his counterpart, head resting against his shoulder and body angled towards the other. His expression had slackened, the normally deep lines of his face becoming less pronounced. There was even a little hint of drool mixed with liquor slicking his lips and dripping down on his chin.
If he had been able to see himself, he would have most likely anticipated the playful comment that his boyfriend threw out, following it with a muffled chuckle.
What a asshole. He shouldn't really find it charming nor sexy, but he did. Oh, if he did.
Tumblr media
"R-Real fuckin' funny, Rick," he grumbled with an eyeroll, even if, in truth, he wasn't as annoyed as he had sounded.
They both knew that his other self said that shit just because he didn't like hearing it, so the bickering was more for the sake of prodding and teasing each other than anything else.
Rick slapped his boyfriend's arm half-heartedly, and the kiss that he dropped against the side of the other's immediately after made it even more obvious that most of his disgruntlement was just an act. At first, the word had truly bothered him, but by now he had gotten used to it. At least when it was his counterpart to call him that.
Anyone else? They had better hope to find him in a merciful mood or they might have risked a one-way trip to the Blender Dimension.
"D-Do you realise that, i-if I'm cute, then y-you are too? S-Same person and all that shit. I-If you ask me, y-you are the cutest between us."
Of course the other knew, but he probably didn't care, since he liked it when Rick called him that. One of the little differences that told them apart.
"N-Now pass me the booze an-and let's put tha-that mouth of yours at a better use." A little smirk opened on his face. "Y-You still owe me most of m-my daily dose of kisses, baby.~"

I DON'T KNOW IF I'MA SEE YOU AGAIN . . .
summary: a slight, or well, not-so-slight blunder led to the unfortunate events of him losing his memory — his memory of you and anything related to you.
characters: riddle roseherts, silver, lilia vanrouge
contains: angst with a bit of fluff, gender-neutral mc (uses second person view aka "you"), the reader blushes (described to be flushed)
notes: title is from see you again hehe :) i just thought it kind of had amnesia trope vibes idkkk dont ask me why atp, inspo comes from anywhere fr. also SURPRISE IM BACK let's ignore the fact that it's been 5 months tho i was so burnt out :(
Tumblr media
⌗ RIDDLE ROSEHEARTS
“Let me help you with that. [...] What? You're staring.”
“Ah, it's... it's nothing, sorry.”
The close proximity is enough to make you go insane. Perhaps it's better if you just took the time to actually fix your tie this morning. That way, he wouldn't be so close! So close that...
Oh Seven, what if he hears my heartbeat?! Ack, calm down, calm down! I don't want to scare him of, what if he thinks it's — I'm creepy?!
“You seem flushed, [Name]. Are you alright?�� his movement stills while holding onto your tie, and you mentally facepalm.
Riddle's hand makes its way to your forehead, the back of his hand pressing onto your skin, before realizing he's wearing gloves. He clears his throat at the mistake, opting to feel your temperature using the back of his wrist — the exposed skin between his sleeve and glove.
“Temperature is normal... a little bit warm, but nothing serious.”
“I'm alright! It's nothing, really.”
Too close, too close, too close!
Riddle retracts back, almost as if he could hear your pleas. He sighed, clearing his throat as his eyes wander around — look everywhere, anywhere but them, Riddle.
“I should — ah, we should get to class...” you reminded. You mirror his actions, averting your gaze.
“Right. Class.”
He offers an arm, one that you graciously take without a second thought. “Let me escort you there. I did hold you off for several minutes.”
Excuses! Riddle's mind yells. You're falling for them!
He doesn't care in the slightest — just as long as you're there to catch him. Though he knew you for a grand total of five days, he knows you'll be there.
⌗ SILVER
“Have I... met you before? I have, haven't I?”
A bittersweet laugh escapes your lips, startling Silver in front of you. You pull yourself together, smiling as you gaze into his eyes — the same eyes you'd lose yourself in, letting the time pass doing just that.
“Once upon a dream, right? That's what you were going to say?” you wipe a tear from the corner of your eye, thankful you laughed first before the waterworks arrived. Thank goodness, he can't see me sad.
Silver's eyes brightened, his eyelashes fluttering in disbelief. “It's... it's you. I meet you in my dreams! Everytime I close my eyes, I... I see you.”
His hands are softly holding yours as he speaks, his thumb tracing your skin delicately — like you were glass, or a treasure. It's enough to make you swoon, just as he's always done before.
“Don't leave my side.”
He thinks it's selfish to ask that from a stranger. But you are no stranger. You know the truth, but he suspects it's destiny — that you've actually met, talked, danced before, only well, it was in his very own dreamland.
You can feel the tears again. Maybe this isn't so bad? Or, at the very least, this isn't the end.
“I wouldn't even think of it.”
⌗ LILIA VANROUGE
“Are you a friend of Silver's? I don't think I've seen you around before.”
Those words were uttered before you could even process the initial news of Lilia's predicament — before your heart could even let it sink in.
You could only choke back the words threatening to slip off your tongue, lest it sound like utter crap to someone who just lost his memories.
You and I are more than friends. You play— well, played lighthearted tricks on me. I fell for them. I fell for you.
“You... could say that,” was all you could muster up. There was no point in explaining more, he wouldn't understand them.
There was understanding to his nod, a subconscious feeling of something nestled deep in his heart.
“Are you troubled? You seem to be.” his tone is soft, yet firm. Lilia had always been that way; a mentor, father (or, father-like to ones who don't know he was actually one), shoulder to cry on, wise fae to depend on...
A lover. Was a lover.
Now, all was left was Lilia before he even got to know you.
Lilia Vanrouge, a schoolmate of yours, once again.

the gang + socs + shepherds and how they flirt (pair them up in all your silly ways)
How the Outsiders Flirt
Ponyboy Curtis
-dude flirts with the nerdiest history/literature/media reference pick up lines
-he does it ironically. Mostly.
-“Hey y/n, you won’t need the Rosetta Stone to translate my love for you.”
-“Hi, I’m babe Lincoln, and I’m about to give you the Gettysburg undress.”
-“Call it manifest destiny, but I truly believe it’s my God-given right to acquire you.”
Johnny Cade
-I think a lot of people think Johnny is a bad/nervous flirter
-which is true if he’s trying to flirt with someone he actually likes
-I also think he would be amazing at text flirting
-but, to the gang? He’s smooth as hell
-doesn’t need pick up lines to make any gang member flustered
-Gang: “Hey Ponyboy, did I ever tell you how damn handsome you are in that?”
-Crush: “Uh- hi Y/n… *tries to muster up courage to flirt but ends up looking at invisible watch* O-oh guess I’m late gotta go!
Darry Curtis
-I think he’s awkward at it
-OKAY SO
-a lot of people think oh he’s so experienced he would be so smooth
-but let’s be so fr I think Darry maybe has the least experience in romance besides ponyboy
-because he’s juggling raising two damn children
-if that doesn’t hold you back from flirting idk what will
-but anyway
-he’s very awkward at it but the gestures are sweet and he eventually gets help with lots of coaching from soda
-“Uh-Yeah! You’re really pretty Y/n!” *insert awkward finger guns and mental facepalming*
Sodapop Curtis
-rizz king
-I’m sorry but he knows how to pull
-like the best out of all of them
-he perfected the art, he can flirt kinda dirty or innocent in a perfect balance
-but either way you’re going to be blushing 2 minutes in
-seriously he’s charming af we know this
-idc how “tough” you are you will turn into a giggling schoolgirl under his words
Dallas Winston
-he’s not respectful
-catcalling/blunt remarks about your body
-invades personal space
-dirtiest mf pick up lines
-“Hey Y/n you work at Kentucky Fried Chicken right? Because whenever I’m done with these breasts and thighs, can you give me a greasy box to put my bone in?” (Afab ver.)
-“Hey Y/n Are you an eco-friendly kind of guy? The condom in my pocket goes expires tomorrow, so why don’t you help me use it?” (Amab ver.)
Two Bit Mathew
-CHEESIEST PICK UP LINES EVER
-ARE YOU FROM TENNESSEE BECAUSE YOU’RE THE ONLY TEN I SEE TYPE SHIT

-sweet and wholesome
-compliments and things like that
-“Hi Y/n, you look so pretty today!”

So when last year for destiny wrapped up, literally the night before the servers went down for Final Shape, I spent the whole night in party finder to get through the legendary vexcalibur mission for the Scribetrace shell. I wanted the lore without looking it up.
I got it and it was very satisfying, I was riding the high right up until I actually read the lore. I had to lay down for a little bit over Crabby Old Man getting bodyslammed out of existence by 6.5 million fuckowatts of vex bullshit.
So I'm sure it goes without saying that I about jumped out of my chair at this week's lorebook.
I'm glad you were able to get it!!!
I have many thoughts about Asher and everything that happened to him and how he dealt with it all. Avalon mission was really cool and seeing him facepalming at us was so good and bittersweet. And despite Mithrax saying he can no longer sense him in there, I felt like obviously some part of him must still be there in the network, inherently. Just maybe not as distinctly self-aware as before.
So yeah. This week's lore book. I really enjoy that they kept it fairly subtle; he really can't be as he was before, but there's something distinctly him that cannot be erased. So distinct that you can essentially use 1-2 words and you know immediately it's Asher. He's that iconic.

I need a Gigolas fic where they make love on emotions after the final battle.
And Legolas decides to hide (or rather ‘not mention’) the fact that “to bed is to wed” for an elf.
Because it will definitely ruin the mood, and like, how are you supposed to tell someone in the heat of the moment that if you proceed you will be legally married?
So, he decides that it is of no matter, because for Gimli it is not a marriage act. And Legolas himself can just ignore the fact, because he is not among his fellow elves and no one will actually know. And surely it is just an elven tradition and nothing will really change if they just have a one time thing.
He soon finds out that the whole “making love” thing does not just get you married in the legal terms for the elves, but actually creates a bond between you and your partner. Which apparently is hard to ignore and, Legolas assumes, impossible to revoke…
And he goes though a crisis and ignores Gimli though the next days, because now they are married and he cannot just ignore it, as he feels the bond burn bright in his heart every second. And it makes it almost painful to be away from Gimli even for a short time.
And he is in a freaking panic mode, because how is he supposed to tell Gimli that they got married without his consent? And how is he supposed to explain why he forgot to mention the fact when that was actually happening?
So yeah, they both brood. Legolas because he is an idiot and does not know what to do, and Gimli because they just made love and now Legolas is avoiding him, so definitely he should regret it.
The fan part starts when Gimli shares his worries with Aragorn, who immediately understands the whole picture (and facepalms in his thoughts). But it’s not like he can just explain everything to Gimli, because it should be Legolas’ choice to make.
And Legolas talks to Gandalf out of desperation as he is literally considers just drowning himself at this point.
To Legolas’ luck it turns out alright. They have a hard conversation, but Gimli loves him already and decides that this must be their true destiny, to spend every living breath by each others side as husbands.
Does anyone know a fic like this? Or maybe wants to write one? Or could help me to write one?

"A Beautiful Dream"
Tumblr media
This is a gender neutral reader so every reader is welcome
"Hmmm just one more cake"
Argenti gave you a disapproving look, a sigh escaping from his lips.
"Your Highness, that's already one too many. If you eat any more, you might upset your stomach."
Yet, even with his words, your charm and (E/c) , and the cute face you make whenever you pout in front of him, never failed to make him give in to you easily.
"But just.. a tiny more won't hurt, I suppose... " he said, and reluctantly, grabbed a small cake and handed it over to you.
"Yay ~! Hmmm maybe some tart next? Or strawberry jam? Oh maybe some pie?! How about macaroon do we have some?! " you ask As you list down the possible dessert you can have again for later.
Argenti internally facepalm himself for giving in so easily into you.
just with a little pout from your adorable cute face. Damn you, for being so charming.
He let out a heavy sigh, seeing you list out every possible sweet that could come to mind. "Your Highness.... you will get a stomachache for sure if you keep that up..." he said with a bit of concern in his tone, but with a small defeated smile, he grabbed another tart and handed it to you anyway.
"But this is a guilty pleasure of mine! I deserve it, I mean I don't always get sweets so I wanna enjoy this moment"
Argenti's heart melted at your words, your face was just too damn adorable to say no to."*sigh* ...I suppose you're right, Your Highness. You've been working hard lately.. so you do deserve this moment of sweet indulgence. As your knight though, I'll try to keep it in moderation for you. But no complaints if you get a stomachache later, okay? "
Letting go of the spoon that you've use for eating all the lovely dessert,you look at Argenti in the eyes and said " can I ask you something?"
"Of course you may, Your Highness," Argenti replied.
giving you his full attention. "Go ahead, what is that you would like to ask me?" He asked.
'Why do you always stay around me? I mean what happens one day if I'm gone what are you gonna do? "
Argenti's usual stoic face turned into a bit more serious expression, his eyes looking straight into your own."What would I do if you're gone...?" He repeated the question in a low voice, his grip on the sword tightened a bit.He paused for a moment and spoke in a firm, almost solemn tone. "My purpose is to serve you and protect you, Your Highness. If you're gone, that would be like...a big part of me is gone as well. I'll never let that happen, no matter what. Ever." He answered you with a soft smile on him.
You sigh. "Argenti, dont you wanna live a life the way ya want like maybe explore where you want? Or perhaps go to other galaxies? "
"Meet new people? Different and unique types of people?"
Argenti let out a small sigh..
His expression softened a bit."Sometimes, It does cross my mind... to live a life of my own, to explore and find my own path." He said
but shook his head."But my destiny was to be your knight, Your Highness. To protect you, serve you, and be at your side through everything. That's my life purpose, and I wouldn't trade it for something else. You're the most important person in my life, and that will never change, ever! " you gave argenti a soft but sad smile.
At the sight of you feeling touched by his words, Argenti's lips twitched into a light, gentle smile. He placed a hand on your shoulder.
"Forgive me for being too blunt with my words. sincerity, Your Highness. But I believe you must know how important you truly are to me," he said, his voice low and gentle. "You're like a...precious treasure to me, one I will always do everything in my power to protect you. Truly the most beautiful one in the whole galaxy"
"You don't have to always be there, You don't have to always think about me, One day when I've come to be no longer in this galaxy please don't be sad... Think only about you and not me. I want you to live a life where you can do what you want I wanna let you go now but knowing you, you won't accept that and just continue being there" holding Aregentis hand and giving it a soft Squeeze as you look up at him
Argenti was caught off guard by your words, his eyes widened in surprise. He took a moment to process them, his usually stoic expression faltering."Your...Highness...what you're saying....? "
He could barely speak, his grip on you tightened a little.The thought of you not being there, his mind refused to even think about it. He couldn't accept the idea, and it showed on his face."No. I can't do that... I can't just let you go. You're everything to me! "
"Wake up"
Argenti's face turned pale at your words, his grip on your shoulder tightened even more."What do you... mean?" He asked, his voice was low and shaky.His eyes filled with worry and confusion, unable to understand why you are talking like that to him."Please...." he started, his voice was almost pleading. "Please..."
You know I admire you truly. Very much Argenti,Finding every beauty on everything and everyone around you, I admire you for that.But I wish for the fact you would just accept it"
"*sigh* look around you... "
.
.
.
Argenti's heart skipped a beat when he heard the sound of your sigh, and the next words you said chilled him to the core. How could you be gone? How could you say something like that?
He desperately hold your hand tighter, as if afraid you might disappear at any moment if he let's go of you.
Wake up.
Argenti's eyes widen in surprise, his breath caught in his throat. He looked around and realized that...you were nowhere to be seen.He was all by himself in the empty room, holding onto nothing but air."No... I....your Highness?" his voice was low and shaky, as he slowly realized he was hallucinating you, just like he had done a few times... "
His heart wrenched in his chest as he remembered how you looked standing in front of him a few minutes ago. The sound of your voice, the sight of your smile. He desperately wanted to reach out and hold you again, but he knew it was all just a illusion.He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself . "Just a beautiful dream" he says to himself..
he opened his eyes and looked around the empty room again, as if expecting to see your figure suddenly appear. But of course, he was met with nothing again.He clenched his fists tightly, his heart heavy with sorrow and grief. He had come to the painful realization that you were indeed gone, and that he was just imagining you all along.
He lowered his head, his body slumped down on the floor as the weight of his grief hit him in full force. He felt so alone, so lost without you by his side. His love, his everything, his ( Y/n) , his Idrila...
Note: yeah honestly idk what I was doing here hahaha ᕦ( ᐛ )ᕡ it's literally almost 4 am in the morning anyways hope y'all have fun reading xD

“Dress to Impress” (Deacon x reader)
Tumblr media
Word count: 1, 274 words
Age restrictions: 16+ (vulgar language)
Tags: Fluff, crack, you determine whether the relationship is platonic or romantic
Synopsis: You’re having a party planned for the New Year’s Eve, so your undead friend decided to offer his helping hand in picking a presentable outfit.
Author’s note: Yes, I named it after a Roblox game. No, I’m not twelve years old.
_____________________________________________
Ever since you heard about your coworker throwing a New Year’s Eve party and inviting you over, it hadn’t left your mind. You just started working at this company at the end of November and you felt a bit awkward, because of the lack of friends and connections. So this was a perfect opportunity to make a good impression on your new colleagues and be the social butterfly you hoped you’d be someday.
Today was the day. 31st of December, almost 7pm. You still had plenty of time to get your shit together, since the even started at nine and the venue was at a walking distance from your apartment. You dug through your full closet, trying to find that one outfit, that would blow everyone away in a matter of seconds. Something classy, but not pretentious. Something to show personality without making you look like a weirdo. Something to be eye-catching without it seeming like you’re trying too hard.
Finally, it presented itself. Falling from the top shelf and landing right onto your head was a beautiful gift from destiny. It was your old blazer with dress-pants, that you wore to a friend’s wedding. Pair this up with any top you want and you’ll look like you pay your taxes on time. Perfectly styled for a responsible office worker.
You put it on, messed a bit with your hair, until you could finally say you tolerated that person in the mirror and was about to start cleaning the mess of unworn clothes that you made, but the sound of a bat squeaking outside of your window stopped you. Seems like your dear friend came again and waited to be invited inside.
You met Deacon about two years ago, when you worked as a shopping assistant in a thrift store. It was almost the end of your shift, when some guy in a vampire costume knocked on the door of the shop and asked to be invited in. You thought this was a bit and found it rather funny, so you invited him in, without questioning. He entered and navigated his way to an oversized leather jacket with furry collar.
He put it on and turned to you: “How does it fit?”
“There’s a mirror right over there.” His question threw you off a bit.
“I need your opinion.” He rotated 360 degrees in front of you. You found it just as amusing, as you did confusing.
“It fits nicely. I think it suits your aesthetic rather well. But…” You thought out loud.
“But?” He was getting a bit impatient.
“But maybe you shouldn’t button it all the way up? Like leave it a little loose at the top. Makes it look hot.” You mentally facepalmed and quickly added. “With all due respect.”
He followed your advice, buttoning it down and fixing the collars a bit. He proceeded to do another spin. “Better now?”
“Oh, yes. You look very good.” You smiled.
“Good. Thank you…” He squinted his eyes at your name tag. “[reader].”
“You’re welcome…”
“Deacon.” He said.
“Deacon.” You mentally noted his name, just in case he comes back. Customers liked it, when you remembered their names.
After this brief interaction your late customer simply headed for the door, without regards for the simple rules or retail. Which is paying for the item, that he currently had on. You cleared your throat to get his attention. “You didn’t pay.”
He waved his palm at your face and said: “I don’t need to pay for this jacket.” Then left the store.
You weren’t paid enough to care and your negligence towards your own job turned out to worth it! Because he returned the next night… and the night after… and the night after the night after. So now, despite losing your job for letting a robbery happen at least 12 times, you had a cool vampire friend, who continued to visit you almost nightly, even after you stopped working in the thrift store.
“Please, come in.” You told him and the bat flew in through the window, turning into a hundred and something year old vampire on your couch.
“What in the world do you have on?” He looked you up and down.
“My Saturday Night’s best.” You chuckled.
“Where are you going?”
“I should remind you, it’s usually more proper to greet a person, before starting an interrogation, but I am going to a very important party tonight.” You sat in the armchair.
“In that?”
“Yeah, why?”
Despite your confusion, he examined your clothes again and looked away. “Nothing.”
“Come on, spit it out. What’s wrong?”
“I have never seen anything more bland than this. It’s not how you usually dress.” He finally gave in.
“How I usually dress is not suitable for a colleague’s get-together.” You looked at your clothes on the floor. “If I put on something like this…” You picked up a brown pair of pants with fake human and animal teeth sawn into them. “It wouldn’t make a good impression. I want to look approachable. Not like a manic psychopath with evident violent tendencies.”
“But now you look like what Nick probably dressed like, before he stole my style.” He huffed.
“No need to attack me like that.” You playfully scoffed. “Look, it’s my favourite colour. Already showing some personality, huh? A good conversation starter, I say.”
“If you’re planning on being this boring the whole time, I am leaving.” Deacon pointed at the window.
“Okay, fine… What do you suggest?” You almost felt, like a movie montage of you trying out clothes with Deacon would start, but unfortunately it didn’t.
He stood up and started searching through the stuff you had lying on the floor. Whenever he found something that looked presentable, he threw it on the couch. Soon enough, there was a full set of clothes. A velvet jumpsuit, a turtleneck and a belt with chains, because it’s fun. “And you’ll take my coat.” He added.
“Won’t you be cold? It’s like zero degrees outside.”
“I’m a vampire. I’ll be fine.” He insisted.
You looked at the clock. Still an hour left. Naturally, you took the clothes and changed in the next room. You returned into the room like a model doing a catwalk. After spinning around you stopped.
“I don’t know… What if everyone else will come in black tie and I’ll be there like this?” You gestured at your new attire.
“Then you’ll be showing personality.” That made you smile and gave you the last bit of confidence you needed to wing the night.
You spent a bunch of time just hanging around in your apartment, while you cleaned up the mess that inevitably occurred whenever Deacon showed up for some reason. You got caught up in talking to the point of completely losing track of time.
“Shit, I’m running late!” You scurried from the couch. “Can you, like… fly me there? It’s about to start in two minutes.” You begged with the expression of a kicked puppy.
“Fine, come on.” You got onto the fire escape outside of your window and he floated you to your friend’s house, avoiding any curious bystanders.
“Thank you so much!” You exclaimed and quickly gave him a warm hug, before running up the stairs to your coworker’s apartment, leaving Deacon to stare at you from behind.
Turned out, that this wasn’t exactly a ‘party’ in the traditional sense of the word, that you thought of. It was more of a casual evening. Everyone was dressed down, the same way you’d come to a close friend’s house. Everyone, except for you.
Well, at least you showed plenty of personality ;)

Chapter 1 : Destiny
Birds chirping, golden sun rays hitting her face, wind carrying the coldness with it. It's is the start of the summer.
She walks around following her daily morning routine, but she is more happier today because of visible climate change. She is so ready to welcome summer. As always. Picnics on beach will be more often now, more contact with sea. Her curiosity.
It's time to decide which new recipe she will try today. 'Maybe some experiment with apples today' she thinks to herself and decides on it. Taking a small, empty fruit basket with her, she locks the home and goes on a hunt for fresh, juicy apples. And she exactly knows where she can get those.
Her steps take her to a very familiar location. A old woman smiles as soon as she see the young charming lady visiting her. "Oh, you are here!" The old lady says. "Yes."
"You want anything?" The old lady asks yo the girl. "Oh come on. Is it important that I should visit you only if I have work? I came here to help you. And yes, I will also be needing some apples which I will buy while going home." " So, you will really buy from your own shop?" The old woman asks in rethorical way.
"It's not mine grandma. You really work hard for this. I don't think I should take fruits for free just because we are close. And, don't I always tell you this?" "Okay, okay. I can never win against young blood, can I ?" They both laugh at this.

As you are returning home, you saw him outside your house. Seokhun, Mayor's son. A real pain in ass. He always comes to your house with the reason of collecting the rent, but no, he is not here just for that. He has two more people with him. Ever since you have started living on rent in their house, he has always tried to get with you. It's just enough at this point. You can't handle him now. Recently his actions has become more worst, he tries to hold your hands, tries to kiss you, etc. At this point, it's all harrasment. But you can't do anything, no one will listen to you. You don't want to ho home anymore so you turn back.
Just strolling around the town, the thought of Seokhun crosses your mind again. You can't continue to live in that house like that. But the fact that you won't get any house in as cheap rent anywhere bothers you.
As you are walking on a road alongside the beach, something catches your eyes. Beomgyu??? With a girl??? Oh no, he is at it again. You facepalm. Just when he also looks at you and there is a "screwed up" look on his face. He wastes no time and run to you for an explanation. Basically Beomgyu is your childhood friend. He was the one who found you first.
Tumblr media
It was almost 11 years ago when you were found passed out on the shore of Ohnoj. Beomgyu was playing on island when he saw you laying on the sand. He came to you, trued to wake you up, but no answer from you. He suddenly called Grandma Hwang. Well, she is not Beomgyu's grandma but she is preety known in town. She has always been living alone. She came and took you to her.
When you woke up, you didn't knew anything, you just knew your name. Park Jaehwa. That's all you knew. And they only thing related to your past was your silver chain with a blue diamond pendant and some complex carvings on the silver around it. On the backside of it the initials of your name were carved "P.J". And nothing much. Though you get some occasional flashbacks about your past, but only when you do something you used to do before. It does hurt your head. You grew up with Grandma Hwang, and Beomgyu has been by your side since then. They took very good care of you. Later on you moved to other house just because you thought you were being a burden for Grandma and started a bakery in your house. When you were found, they estimated your age was around 12-13, according to that you are probably 23-24 now.
But something always keeps telling you that you don't belong here. Whenever you are at sea, it feels like the wind is pulling you towards sea, a voice, not audible but only in your head, tells you that someone else needs you, someone that is on the other side of the horizon. You desire of crossing the sea is more stronger than anything else.
Beomgyu jogs and stands right in front of you. "You are with a new girl, Again??" You ask putting stress on "again". He scratches his nape.
"Umm, Jaehwa, believe me, I am not playing with this girl."
"And?? As if I have not heard this from you before."
"No no, for real. I am definitely not playing with her."
"Mind telling me her name."
"Oh, her name is Bora"
"Oh, so, she is Bora??"
"Yup, I told you right, my long time crush, I am finally deciding to confess to her."
"I am gonna beat your ass if I find out that you are playing with her too. I have told you before, many times, that it's not a good thing."
"But, I don't do it anymore. Believe your brother, will you?"
"Okay" you deadpan. "But, remember my words."
He does a salute, "Yes, ma'am." and runs off back to her.
You smile to yourself seeing that he is finally getting with his crush of years.
You don't want to spoil his mood by telling your problem to him now. Seokhun will probably leave after sometime. How much time is he going to wait in front of a locked door.
As you are walking alongside the beach you hear someone talking about pirates. There were two men sitting in a open wooden shed. You were at the backside of the shed, but you could still hear then through the slots between the wooden planks.
"Pirates like them have stepped on our island. Are they going to loot us all??" Man one says terrified.
"Yeah, what if they kill us?" Another man says.
"I heard the worst. Those are not just any pirates. They are the Destiny's crew."
"What?!!! The young pirate king? I have heard alot about them."
"They are so young. But merciless. I have heard that their eyes don't shine at all, they just look so dark."
"I can't feel the atmosphere change from the time they have come."
"Does mayor knows about this? We should not let them stop at our land, or ready troops for a fight. These pirates are-"
They are cut by someone's deep, intimidating voice.
"These pirates are, what? You were saying something?"
That man asks but no answer from first two men.
""If you are so terrified to talk about pirates, why do you even talk about them then?" Another man with crystal clear voice says.
You still couldn't here anything from first two men.
"You were saying something about banning those pirates from your island, right?"
There is a pause.
"Well, for your information, no one can tell us what to do or where to stop. We do whatever we want, understood?"
Your hand flies to your mouth. Right on the other side there are crew of Destiny who caught those two men gossiping about them. You get it why those two men terrified to speak.
You tried to poke your eye from the slit in the wood. You catch a slight glimpse of them,they wore something that you have never ever seen anyone wearing. Even though you can't see properly, you try to observe the taller man, but when you look at his face with a blank expression, you feel goosebumps on your whole body. You try to find his eyes, but just then he looks exactly at you. Your soul almost left your body. You back away and crouch down keeping a hand on your heart.
Even though there was a whole wooden wall between you and them, you still felt he could watch you. 'How did his eyes directly dart at the thin slit? Did they see me?' You think. But you hear their steps fading away in the sand.
Tumblr media
All that you heard just made you more and more curious. The people you have been hearing about for years are so close but you just can't gain enough courage to face them. You are just walking absentmindedly when another gossip alongside road catches your attention. You slow your steps down to listen.
"Those pirates are hiring some people according to what I heard."
"They are not here to loot us??"
"No, that's strange behaviour for pirates but I heard they are not here for loot."
"According to me, an insane person would ever think of joining that ship."
'Hiring crew?' You think. From where you are, you can only see the faint silhouette of the big ship standing little away from the shore, in the waters. But you are so curious to know more about it. You decide to ask about your doubts to a person sitting near the Dock.
"Excuse me. Can I ask you something about those pirates?"
His eyes shot up to you.
"Hey, keep your voice low when you speak about Destiny crew."
He warns, and you just nod.
"Can you tell me why are they here?"
"I heard they are here for hiring and this news is confirmed. They have told to gather near ship to all those who are interested to join the crew in sometime."
"But we have never had any pirate on our land and suddenly them."
"You know, they are not just any pirates. They don't follow anyone's rules."
You pause.
"But why are they hiring from random islands or countries? I have heard that they have their own organisations or some sources that provide crew."
"That ain't compulsory."
There is a pause again. But the man motions you to come closer, and you do.
"I have a exclusive information, but, don't tell anyone." He looks on his left and right, confirming there is no one else.
"I heard they are going to a place from that fairytale. They can't properly find the way to the place. You know, Wonderland...."
As soon as you hear Wonderland, it feels like everything stopped. The man is still speaking but his voice fades. There is a loud beep ringing in your ears and multiple images of certain something flashes in front of your eyes. Sea, ship, mountain, some glowing things, etc. But the last image lasted longer, big white gates. That's all. You clutch your head.
"Hey lady, are you okay?"
You look at him.
"I- I am fine. But, but are you sure whatever you have heard is right?"
"Yes, I overheard a crew talking about it."
"Okay. Thank you."
You step away from the man and breathe deeply. 'What was that?' You think.
You step in sand, looking at the sea. The feeling that you get, again. Someone calling from the horizon. The sudden strong wind makes your hair sway. You exhale. You turn your head to look at the ship again and think, "Is this it?"
Tumblr media
Without thinking for a second time, you are already walking towards Destiny. There are already some people standing in front of the ship and a tall man standing in front of them. It's the man from earlier, with the deep voice.
Some people are standing in line, you just stand at the very end not know what to
do. From what you heard, he is the Quartermaster of the ship.
"I can sew, master."
"We already have enough tailors on our ship. No need of another. Rejected."
Just like his sharp features, he is also sharp with his words.
"Next, what do you have?"
"I- I can cook, master." Another one says with his head down.
"Again, we have enough cooks."
He says annoyed.
Just like that, many people get rejected and only few get selected. Only those, who could fight, and those are all men. He stands in front of you, asking you.
"What about you?"
You are just standing there confused, you haven't even decides if you should get on the ship or not.
"I- I-."
He raises his eyebrows.
"I can, umm. I can clean."
"We have got enough people for that."
Before he walks of, you stop him. You don't even know why you are doing this.
"I can, manage any stuff if you want me to."
He doesn't listen and just keeps walking. You are chasing behind him.
"I know the way to Wonderland."
Your hand flies to your mouth not knowing why you said that. He stops dead in his track. You are shocked by yourself. He turns back and squints his eyes. You remove you remove the hand from your mouth and look directly at him. You gulped. He takes one look at you, from down to up, at your face hand then he speaks.
"On the ship, before sun touches the horizon. Otherwise, forget it. " This is the only thing he says and walks away.

Falûne: w-wait- I’m the one in charge?! Why?!
Gale: well you seem like the most capable out of all of us. Lae’zels to brash for communicating with the locals, Astarions had no agency in his own life for 200 years, Wyll’s judgment is in the air given mizora-. Karlach is-… and none of us trust Shadowheart as far as we can throw her. As for me I’m content with giving advice if needed but I’m in no way suited for making big decisions.
Falûne: and you all decided I was?! Less an a week ago I wasn’t even allowed to eat porridge before all my morning chores were done! I have no clue what’s going on!! I’m miles from home with no agency on where my destiny lies anymore and now my ankle fluff is covered in goblin filth and I don’t even have a bar of soap to wash!
Halsin: Alright alright I’ll take over then-
Gale: Do I really need to reiterate the sheer state of the circumstances you got yourself into?!
Halsin: I- that’s, fair.
Falûne: *facepalms and starts crying*

Are there any clear parallels between Mei and Macaque other than they are/were the 'hero‘s closest friend'?
Like- MK and Wukong have similar storybeats and personality traits.
Same with Mei and Wukong.
(Even Azure and Mei have parallels. Containers for power. Azure‘s sword inspired her to make her own. There was a scene where they had the same battle ready pose. Azure‘s goal was to use the power of the emperor for something good, Mei thinks that power should be used for good whenever possible. Azure‘s first priority was trying to reunite the brotherhood, friends/family are very important to him too. Both willing to make sacrifices -like Wukong- to save the world, though Azure‘s method was admittedly less permanent than outright killing him.)
But other than the "Ugh, this guy." Facepalm Mei and Macaque did (at Ao Lie and Monkey King) in season 4, nothing springs to mind for me for this particular pair.
Macaque is cautious, Mei is the polar opposite of that. Macaque acts out of his own interest for the most part, for Mei, her friends (and the world) are priority.
Even looking at younger Macaque, from what little we‘ve seen, he was bit of a grouch, grumbling and half heartedly rolling his eyes at Wukong‘s antics. Whereas Mei is right there alongside MK being silly and goofing off.
(I‘m sorry for dragging the Warrior/Hero stuff back to the table, but with how often Mei is labeled as the Warrior in the fandom I would have thought there‘d be more. So I was wondering if I am just not very observant 😅)
First of all: never apologize for bringing up the Hero and the Warrior motif! I'd also like to thank you for your other thoughts, Azure and Mei parallels are always delicious.
Second of all: to quote my own Hero and Warrior meta, (mainly because I'm too lazy to rewrite anything):
"We know that the Warrior is someone who follows the hero, someone who is the moon to the Hero’s sun, someone who loves and looks up to the Hero. In this sense, the role of the Warrior is completely defined by the role of the Hero. [...] During the night, the Warrior is the moon that brings light to the world in the sun’s absence."
So, in regards to Mei being a Warrior to MK's Hero, I'd say she fits the bill pretty perfectly! "Together, there was nothing that could stop the two of them", and together MK and Mei are always going to be able to "figure it out". Even when MK isn't there or they're separated (particularly in 4x10), Mei and the gang are still going to step in and try and help (or be that light when the hero is absent).
Moving on: Mei and Macaque parallels.
I think the way Mei is treated by MK in s1-3 is reminiscent of both how Wukong treats MK during s2 and how Wukong treated Macaque in the past. MK ignores Mei—often letting his own reach for power affect his relationship with her, especially in episodes 1x06, 2x03, 2x06, and 3x03 (and honestly even 2x02). I'll just put shit MK does to Mei over Macaque dialogue lol:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Macaque: "Still the same Wukong—doing whatever he wants with no regard for others!" (3x14 Destiny Fulfilled)
-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Macaque: "Look Wukong, I get you're excited, I do! But- crossing the Jade Emperor's going to have consequences—aaannnd you're not even listening." (4x02 New Adventures) (Thank you 2x03 for stating that MK doesn't listen outright. We owe you a lot.)
-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Macaque: "Wukong didn't think so—he always felt he had to be stronger, more immortal." (4x11 A Lifetime of Mistakes)
-
Hopefully that demonstrates my point!
I'm also banking on whatever went down between Wukong and Macaque paralleling 3x10 (Ending with SWK choosing to leave Macaque while MK refused to leave Mei), but we'll have to see!
Ultimately however, I'd say that rather than parallels, Mei and Macaque are foils. They have some similarities, but there are also a lot of key differences between these two characters. Like anon mentioned, Macaque is cautious while Mei is foolhardy, Macaque looks out for himself while Mei works to protect others, Macaque prefers to watch and wait while Mei believes in taking action, Macaque turned against Wukong when Mei could never turn against MK.
But, in that same vein, I think they're in the process of becoming more like each other. Mei is learning to slow down and focus, to "harness the wild energies and emotions burning within" her—essentially to be more cautious. Macaque on the other hand is learning how to be a team player, and is starting to put himself on the line for other people:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
While MK and Wukong have always been pretty similar/have made similar mistakes, it's interesting to watch their counterparts slowly become more like one another, but instead with their virtues.
Speaking of, Macaque's 2x07 line-
"As time went on, the hero obtained power beyond comprehension. As the hero’s light grew, so too did his shadow—and soon, the Warrior was cast into that shadow."
-has uh, started to worry me, mainly because I'd say that now, post-s4 MK has quite literally obtained power beyond comprehension:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And while 3x10 will always be important because of MK's choice to stay by Mei, I wonder if we're due for another ultimatum where MK doesn't make that right choice (*cough cough* he leaves in 4x08 mainly because he's afraid of hurting the people he cares about—something that is going to come back later *cough cough*). Or perhaps it's a role reversal, where Mei and the Gang have to decide whether or not to "abandon" MK (aka destroy the "harbinger of chaos", al la 3x04 Macaque Flashback).

Thank you for understanding my autism brain!
Okay, I have a bit of a controversial one, but one that I actually don't think a lot of fans take into account when they go all “damn you Hyrule for not letting them in” based on Equal Lady. This one's specifically for OoT, TP, WW, & HW, mostly OoT seeing as he still lives with the Gerudo actively: His little wife would occasionally glance at him curiously.
“What is it, Vaynï?” (My wife.)
“I suppose that I simply realized something & please forgive me if I'm being presumptuous, but why haven't you skirted down beyond Hyrule's southern boarder & settled in Ordona or beyond that? If you continue east far enough, there seems to be very little more than uncharted jungle followed by fertile land & the ocean? There is much lush vegetation, it rains often (though, you would need to account for frequent lightning). Why not simply build a homestead in that uncharted region? It appears to close enough to Ordon that it would be relatively simple to establish trade with them & the vaien could frequent there for paramores rather than relying entirely on Hyrule.”
Please, his thoughts, feelings, & reactions, but I am just REALLY hoping that he basically has a bit of a mental facepalm moment.
You... have points. Many points. I think he was a bit hyper fixated on Hyrule (Courtesy of Demise's lovely Curse) to think of anything else. It doesnt help that it's another kingdom that makes him have an inferiority complex. The man doesnt like competition.
***********************************************************************
Ocarina of Time Ganondorf
Reactions: Ganondorf is initially taken aback by her question, considering it thoughtfully. The practicality of her suggestion strikes him, and he experiences a moment of introspection. He might even have a brief face-palm moment as he realizes the simplicity of her solution compared to his grandiose schemes.

Explanation: Ganondorf explains that his ambition and pride have always driven him to conquer Hyrule, not just for its resources, but for the power and control it represents. However, her suggestion opens his eyes to the possibility of a more peaceful and fulfilling life, even if he struggles with the idea of letting go of his long-held ambitions.
Twilight Princess Ganondorf

Explanation: Ganondorf explains that his motivations have always been tied to a sense of destiny and retribution against Hyrule. Yet, he acknowledges the wisdom in her suggestion and begins to see the potential for a different kind of legacy—one built on prosperity and community rather than conquest.
Wind Waker Ganondorf
Reactions: Wind Waker Ganondorf is intrigued by her question, considering the lush, fertile lands she describes. He imagines the possibility of establishing a new Gerudo kingdom, far from the conflicts with Hyrule.
Thoughts and Feelings: He feels a mixture of curiosity and hesitation, recognizing the potential benefits of her idea but also struggling with his ingrained desire for Hyrule's power. Her suggestion stirs a sense of hope and possibility within him, challenging his long-standing views.
Explanation: Ganondorf explains that his focus has always been on Hyrule due to its symbolic and strategic importance. However, he admits that her idea presents a compelling alternative, one that could provide a more stable and prosperous future for the Gerudo people.
Hyrule Warriors Ganondorf
Reactions: Hyrule Warriors Ganondorf listens to her question with a contemplative expression. The practicality and simplicity of her suggestion catch him off guard, and he takes a moment to reassess his goals.
Thoughts and Feelings: He feels a mix of admiration for her insight and frustration with himself for not considering such an option earlier. The idea of establishing a new, thriving settlement away from Hyrule's conflicts begins to appeal to him, offering a different kind of challenge and opportunity.
Explanation: Ganondorf explains that his ambition has always been tied to the conquest of Hyrule and its symbolic significance. However, her suggestion makes him realize the potential for a new path, one that could lead to a more prosperous and fulfilling life for both him and the Gerudo.
Tears of the Kingdom Ganondorf
Reactions: Tears of the Kingdom Ganondorf is intrigued by her suggestion, imagining the lush, uncharted lands she describes. He considers the practicality of her idea, weighing it against his long-standing ambitions.
Thoughts and Feelings: He feels a mix of curiosity and hesitation, recognizing the potential benefits of her suggestion but also struggling with his deep-seated desire for power and dominance over Hyrule. Her proposal stirs a sense of possibility within him, challenging his established views.
Explanation: Ganondorf explains that his focus has always been on Hyrule due to its strategic importance and symbolic value. However, he acknowledges the wisdom in her suggestion and begins to see the potential for a new kind of legacy—one built on prosperity and community rather than conquest.
Demise
Reactions: Demise is initially dismissive of her suggestion, viewing it as a distraction from his ultimate goal of dominion over Hyrule. However, her persistence and the practicality of her idea make him pause and consider the possibilities.
Thoughts and Feelings: He feels a mix of intrigue and reluctance, recognizing the potential benefits of her suggestion but also struggling with his single-minded focus on Hyrule. Her proposal challenges his ingrained desire for conquest and power.
Explanation: Demise explains that his motivations are rooted in a desire for ultimate power and dominion over Hyrule. However, he begins to see the wisdom in her suggestion and contemplates the possibility of a different kind of legacy—one that involves building a prosperous and thriving community away from the constant struggle for power.
General Themes and Reactions
Admiration and Respect: Each Ganondorf, in his own way, admires Equal Lady’s insight and practical approach. Her ability to think critically and offer a viable alternative impresses them.
Internal Conflict: They all experience a mix of curiosity and reluctance. The idea of abandoning their long-held ambitions for Hyrule is challenging, but her suggestion makes them rethink their goals and priorities.
Legacy and Future: Her proposal opens their eyes to the possibility of a different kind of legacy—one built on prosperity, community, and stability rather than conquest and dominance. This new perspective begins to take root, offering a glimmer of hope for a different future.
