Fatin: I have to kill her.

Dot: Who?

Fatin: *glaring at Leah from a distance*

Fatin: I don't know how to flirt with her so she has to die.

Dot: Okay, drama queen. Why don't you just *talk* to her?

The Unforgiving Waves

Nora Reid x Reader

SUMMARY: Nora Reid leaves behind a great love when she disappears into the waters.

WORD COUNT: 952

It was fast, but slow at the same time.

Rachel had wanted to just… think. In the water, away from everyone. In peace and tranquillity.

Martha saw it first.

When she screamed it was like I had lost my hearing.

There was something in the water.

Rachel couldn’t see it. Couldn’t hear it.

Leah was screaming too, but it wasn’t about the shark.

She was shouting Nora’s name. It felt vindictive, it sounded hurt. It sounded angry.

Nora wasn’t listening. She was breaking out into a run. She was going after her sister.

I let her name explode from my lungs. It was too dangerous. Leah was breaking out into a run towards the camp.

I screamed Nora’s name again. She didn’t hesitate, she just threw herself into the water. She didn’t care about the danger. She only cared about Rachel.

I tried to move my feet, to run after Nora. To run after the girl who was a stranger to me three weeks ago. The girl who brightened up my life. Things were so much less bleak when she was there, beside me. Always drawing, writing, keeping up with the dates and tracking our time on the island. She drew me and she made me love myself. She took so much care with it, drawing all of my features with such love I couldn’t help but think of them differently. Better. I tried to move my feet. She had already gotten to Rachel, pulling and tugging at her sister.

Instead, I collapsed. I couldn’t help her, she was too far out. I couldn’t see. The water was moving in calculated waves, selfish and unmerciful. I didn’t feel myself hit the ground. Dot already had her arms around me, trying to hold me up. I couldn’t move. I screamed for Nora again, hot tears falling as Fatin dropped in place at my side, holding her hands on my arms. I struggled in my grip. I had to get myself up, I had to get into the water. I could hear her struggling. I couldn’t tell if it was Rachel or Nora screaming.

Toni and Shelby had made it to shore, pulling one of them out of the water. Dot carefully let me go to help them. Fatin still held a steady grip on me, as I sobbed in fear and desperation and pain and out of the unfulfilled desire to just get off this fucking island. I couldn’t breathe. I called out for Nora again. I needed to see her smile again, her true smile that she had when she was making a joke, or drawing pictures of me. I needed to hear her laugh again, like when I attempted to draw her and it failed astronomically. Fatin was stroking my hair, whispering something to me. I couldn’t hear.

It was Rachel. They had pulled Rachel out of the water.

I wriggled out of Fatin’s grip and stumbled over to the shore.

I screamed for Nora. Once. Twice. Three times. Four times.

Martha pulled me into a hug, tears streaming out of her own eyes.

Behind me, I could hear screaming. I could hear Dot scrambling around for something. I could hear Shelby reciting comforting words. I could hear Fatin gasping. Martha still had a grip on me, stopping me from doing anything drastic. I could hear Toni swearing, her breath shaky. I could even hear Leah running over. I could hear Rachel screaming in pain.

But I couldn’t hear Nora.

Heavy sobs took over, and my whole body shook as I turned. The water was still again.

Rachel had lost a hand.

And Nora was gone.

Her smile was gone, her laugh. Her artistic talent. Her ability to diffuse a situation with an unfunny joke that still managed to make everyone laugh. Her fierce protectiveness. The water had taken her. The water had taken, with no remorse. Her curly hair, with red ends that I had loved so much. Her eyes, and how they were always observing and taking in information at a million miles a minute. The water had taken her hopes, her dreams. How she wanted to be something one day. The water had taken her memories, the games she used to play with her parents, the books she used to read. All of the information that she had stored in her head, information that I was fascinated with. Information she used to tell me, sitting in the dark for hours and hours talking about anything that came across their minds. The water had taken her fears. That she’d never repair her relationship with Rachel.

The water had stolen Nora Reid from me.

It was days later, and nothing had been the same. Rachel didn’t move from her spot at camp, staring into the blank horizon. The rest of the girls were trying to stick to some kind of normality.

It was Fatin, who suggested I write it all down in this book. She thought it would help me let go, help me move on.

I just feel more lost.

Without her, this notebook is just a notebook. It wasn’t magical anymore. It had no spirit, no personality.

I flipped back to Nora’s first drawing of me. Back then. It wasn’t that long ago, not really. It felt like years ago. It was the drawing that made me fall in love with her. Not the sappy, teenage faux love. I could see her, the true her. And she could see me.

The tears fell again. They hadn’t really stopped.

I brushed my hand over the drawing and closed my eyes.

Little did I know, Nora Reids was watching me. Through a little screen. Tears trickled out of her own eyes.

Martha Blackburn & Fatin Jadmani in Season 1

“Do you want some solid relationship advice?”

“Uh-huh.”

“Okay, there’s only three things that you have to remember. Skip the handie, dry humping is underrated, and always carry a stash of Uqora.”

[random-french-girl]

Could you do Martha and Fatin for the brotp?

Hi friend! Thanks!

What in-jokes do they have with each other?

They rate every guy Martha meets and finds cute on a scale “from zero to Marcus”. The scale is NOT scientific, and none of the other girls really understand it. But it’s hilarious.   

Are they the “I’ll pay this time if you pay next time”-type friends, or the “I’ll pay for my food and you’ll pay for yours”-type friends?

First option. Fatin always insists to pay for Martha’s drinks though. 

Who’s more prone to pranking, or otherwise messing with, the other?

Martha, actually :) She’s wickedly sneaky when doing pranks, and a lot of them involve using various animals (mostly insects and the likes) to scare Fatin. She has to be careful, though, because Fatin has no qualms about squashing a spider with a rolled-up Vogue Magazine. Which is not what Martha wants. (What she wants is to add to her collection of videos of Fatin screaming at the top of her lungs because there’s a harmless beetle on her bed. It makes for a great pick-me-up whenever one of the girls is depressed.)

How do they text/message each other? Proper punctuation and capital letters, egregious overuse of emojis, mostly in meme format…?

Oh my God, they are the most CHAOTIC texters, there’s emojis EVERYWHERE, new abbreviations daily, their texts are absolutely unreadable by anyone else. (Even Toni, who’s used to Martha’s style, can’t decipher what the fuck they’re talking about.) They basically have invented a whole new writing system. 

Do they exchange jokey birthday presents, or deeply thought-out and meaningful presents? Or both?

Both, but mostly meaningful? Fatin also loves organizing Martha’s birthday parties. She does The Most. Martha is delighted. 

They go on a road trip together. Who drives, who picks the music, who’s in charge of snacks?

Martha drives - she, gently, leaves No Room for argument. Fatin is in charge of the music - which works great, they like the same stuff. They’re both in charge of snacks - lots of chocolate, lots of juice. 

What do they think of each other’s family?

Fatin adores Martha’s family, and is, weirdly, a little scared of Martha’s mom, in the “I never want her to be disappointed in me” kind of way. Martha is very impressed with Fatin’s parents at first - they’re so elegant and stylish!-, not so much when she learns the whole story. She loves Fatin’s little brothers though, and they love her too :)

Do they have any nicknames for each other?

Fatin has a million pet names for Martha. I don’t think Martha has any for Fatin, however. 

Who’d be the first to try and patch things up if they had a fight?

Honestly... they rarely get into fights. But when they do, Fatin tries to patch things up first. There’s nothing worse than knowing that Martha is mad at you.

One of their phones goes off in the middle of the night. Who’s calling whom, and why?

Fatin actually calls Martha when she gets sad in the middle of a party, and she doesn’t want to bother Dot and Leah, or they’re not available, or she’s feeling self-conscious and needs Martha’s specific energy. 

What’s their favourite funny story about something that happened to the two of them?

Getting high on the beach for sure.

Would they do a joint cosplay? If so, who would they dress up as?

Oh, they would. For Halloween, they dress up as a devil and an angel. Martha is the devil. Fatin is a very sexy, probably not Bible-accurate angel. 

Do they have any TV shows that they watch together? Are there any shows they have wildly different opinions on?

So many shows! A lot of reality TV, first of all. Martha also gets Fatin to watch the entirety of Pretty Little Liars, Fatin is. Obsessed. And furious about it. She rants about the outfits constantly.

Which one is the “fight me” friend and which one is the one who tries to keep the peace and prevent their friend from punching a total stranger?

Fatin is the “fight me” friend. Martha tries to keep the peace. 

One of them comes up with an ill-advised but mostly harmless idea. Does the other one egg them on because they think it’ll be funny, or try and talk them out of it?

In both cases, they’d try to talk the other out of it. 

Who would win if they arm-wrestled?

Martha.

Who’s better at what type of video games, and how competitive are they when they play together?

Martha is leagues better than Fatin. They aren’t very competitive with each other, but if they are together in a team against some of the other girls they get HYPED UP and WILL destroy their competition. 

One of them ends up in hospital for something serious but not life-threatening. What does the other bring along when they visit in order to cheer them up?

Martha brings homemade food that she cooked with her mom, UNO, Fatin’s emotional support makeup case, and has all the girls send a heartfelt card for Fatin. Also, a vibrator, which prompts Fatin to propose on the spot. (She may have been a bit delirious from fever, but still.)

How huggy are they?

It’s interesting, they’re very huggy with their respective people (Toni, Leah), but I’m not sure they hug each other all that much? They do physical affection, but maybe not via hugs? Like, Fatin will put her arms around Martha’s shoulders, and they’ll sit together with their knees touching, and they’ll touch each other’s hair and face, and hold hands. Not that many hugs though. 

What was the moment when they first realised that they’d become friends?

They start bonding pretty early on the island, but probably that one moment where Martha asks if she’ll have Romeos in her DMs too, and Fatin’s like MARTHA ANGEL YES OF COURSE <3

[see-you-in-the-mourning]

My ideal way for season 3 of the wilds to end would be for the teens to outsmart Gretchen’s smarmy ass and trap her and her research bitches on the island to fend for their damn selves. Leatin and shoni are happy and drama free. The only Hetero couple I would accept is Marty and Bo just because I think they could be cute together. Everyone else becomes bffs with each other. Seth gets fucking obliterated and Nora realizes she’s been a dumb hoe and helps save everyone and redeems herself. I would also like to see dean beat up that psychiatrist dude who’s name I can’t be bothered to remember. All the shitty parents leave the kids alone. And everyone gets some fucking therapy and lives happily ever after while Gretchen Klein rots in obscurity.

THE WILDS | Season Two Trailer

[prongsflower]

i believe the other person inside is one of the boys, i don’t think (and i hope with all my fucking heart) that none of the girls is working for gretchen, and here’s why:

toni: she’s loyal to a fault, she would never put martha in a situation like that

leah: no need to explain

shelby: if she knew that there were cameras recording her all the time” she wouldn’t have broke ‘perfect christian girl’ image bc she only became herself bc she thought there was no one watching, no one counting on her to be perfect for them

martha: if she knew there were people there who would ‘help’ her she wouldn’t go against her morals and kill the animals

dot: well she wouldn’t have said that she met with gretchen to the girls if she was the traitor right

fatin: i don’t think she would ever agree to put random girls into that situation, and she wouldn’t give up her social life

rachel: like with the boys, only one of a pair of siblings is the traitor; and rachel wouldn’t put a stop to her training just to do anything

[appleciders]

if fatin giving martha the watch is paralleled next season by fatin saving martha’s life, literally giving her more time, i will cry
