HI SO THE SUMMER HIKARU DIED IS ONE OF THE GREATEST MANGAS I'VE RED THIS YEAR, I CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER :D

I wanted to yap a bit about how i think it's pretty much important seeing it also as a BL and how so many people are misunderstanding the beautiful relationship between Yoshiki and Hikaru but specially 'Hikaru', who he later on falls deeply in love, HEAR ME OUT OK?

🍉 This contain spoilers 🍉

In one of the first scenes of this series, we can understand perfectly what's happening to both of the main characters. Hikaru is gone, and Yoshiki has to deal with his loss even tho his friend is still there, but oops 😬 it's not really him. It's some kind of weird monster he has never heard before. It's clear that Yoshiki's mental health is taking a deep dive, NOT ONLY because he saw the corpse of his dead friend and has to live with whatever this identity is, but because apparently, Hikaru had a strong impact in his life, considering the divorce of his parents and the feeling of loneliness he felt for being "diferent" (queer in a small town). It's somehow acceptable that whatever he felt about his dead best friend is insignificant in this situation, 'cause no matter what he did, accepting reality meant losing Hikaru forever, and he decides that it's such a ubereable feeling that he wants, no he NEEDS this Hikaru around.

In conclusion, Yoshiki has to deal with grief, the loneliness of the bigotry, the loss of his childhood and the acceptance of his trauma and issues.

And 'Hikaru' is now free. He could destroy most of the village and the people living on it; but he decides he won't, because he loves, OH he loves Yoshiki. To the point He gives part of himself to this boy just to make sure he's safe. It makes sense the original Hikaru had this feelings burried inside him already but it's also clear to me that this thing, this monster experiences feelings for the first time and he can't help but feel everything in a way more intense level. So Basically, his undying love for Yoshiki is the chain keeping him on the ground when he should be this destruction and murder machine.

Do i believe 'Hikaru' and Yoshiki could be lovers?

Absolutely.

Everything on this manga is ahead of what we see, for example, when Hikaru loses his control all of sudden and turns back to his real form

Have you ever felt something so fiercely you felt like pouring your soul, or screaming off the top of your lungs?

Well, the monster revealing himself is a way to let clear how much 'Hikaru' (or rather just queer people) repress their own feelings to "fit in".

It's very meaningful how 'Hikaru' is so open and expressive (especially in a physical way) about how he feels and who he is, and Yoshiki is more of a "quiet gloomy boy" who has the deep desire of hiding himself for who he is truly (the way he keeps his bangs long is probably a manifestation of hiding away, which really makes sense)

So, yeah, Hikaru dying and coming back is this big allegory of how once you're becoming who you really truly are, and bigotry is all around, people are gonna notice something is wrong and when you come out, suddenly you are a monster.

The "old lady" interacting with both of them and specially saying to Yoshiki to "be careful not to get mixed up with him" as if it was, maybe, some kind of disease is craazy, because out of context it really matches well all of the big metaphor of "being queer in secret at a small traditional village".

Also! I wanted to point the BIGGEST allegory in this whole series.

The "Hand in the hole"

I've even seen people compare it to abuse, which honestly seems to me not only untrue, but, as someone with het comp, kind of offensive?

But yeah, that's definitely a metaphor for gay sex or at least same sex intimacy.

The catch is, Yoshiki does seem uncomfortable because, like the insides of a monster, same sex relationships are "unnatural". It gets really easy figuring out he actually likes the feeling of being one with 'Hikaru' since the second time he does it, he keeps telling himself how wrong it is, how he shouldn't be doing it, and then he forgets it, because he likes it. It feels good; However, once it starts "sticking to him" (obvious alegory for feeling guilty or dirty, like he sinned) He gets scared and runs away.

I feel that, at first Yoshiki mourns Hikaru, he Mourns their old relationship of a comfortable friendship and he doesn't understand why did his best friend had to die and become a monster, something so weird, so unnatural; but later on, they learn to accept themselves for who they are, even if they feel different in their own ways and come to terms of accepting the unconditional love they feel for eachother.

ANYWAYS, I LOVE THEM THEY LOVE EACHOTHER, IT'S UNHEALTHY, IT'S DOOMED BY THE NARRATIVE AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL

I hope everything goes right for them, or else I'll have one more year of therapy over sad doomed yaoi 😞🩷

I checked out Baraou no Souretsu (Requiem of the Rose King) by Aya Kanno because it’s been a while. I know I read this first before I became obsessed with The House in Fata Morgana Visual Novel but the resemblance between the two is really strong!

Like we have Lady Cecily and Elizabeth’s scene! Elizabeth, wife of protagonist’s eldest brother sure looks like manipulating the brothers’ mother. It’s like Aimee and Lydia from Fatamoru. And yes, Lady Cecily as a mother is quite mentally unstable as well. 

Then we have Edward, the eldest among three brothers. You can tell that he care about his brothers even with his imperfections. He’s a playboy, and don’t take his throne seriously but his health deteriorates more when he found out his brother, George commits suicide. He also tend to boast his youngest brother’s achievements. Reminds me of the brothers story from the Bollinger House. He’s kinda like Didier in a way. 

We also have the protagonist’s body problem that made others call him a demon. But I don’t think Richard suffer in Gender Identity Crisis? He really like his name and being a man but his body bothers him. He’s the exact opposite of Michel Bollinger. He was raised a man but he has a really strong female qualities. He also don’t mind female clothes tho?? Someone made an analysis about this character!

Witches also exists in the story who tend to destroy things and manipulate people with their weakness. If Jane is really a witch you ask? I don’t know but she claimed she is one. She has a little cult consists of women who she teach how to curse people. She reminds me of Morgana and Aimee.

Catesby’s backstory reminds me of Yukimasa but tbh he’s the most decent character in this manga. His race is quite vague and ask Richard to hide that secret with him because they are similar in some way. Catesby is also a loyal swordsman. I wish he’s not twisted. I don’t know what should I believe anymore if he become a dark character like the protagonist.

Homosexuality contradict their religious belief. That it’s a taboo and all of that. Religion has a big role in their story as well. 

There are lots of messed up and uncomfortable scenes in this manga like bros sharing lovers, blood related brothers kissing each other, fantasizing your dead dad with your sexual desires, etc. YOU NAME IT!

I don’t really recommend it to those who have strong opinion of what is right and wrong. The only thing that can make you enjoy it is being open-minded and neutral as possible. But if you love that kind of thing, you should check it out. It’s pretty much based on Richard iii of England but it’s not accurate. Inspired is probably the right word. It’s intriguing so I kinda like it.

It’s Tragedy, full of Drama and Historical.

Marinette’s worse day or Adrien’s Birthday.

Marinette was in luck! No school, no “friends” just her. Marinette rolls over to head back to sleep.

“Marinette!” A squeaky voice called out. Marinette opens one of her eyes just barely to see Tikki in her face. “You need to get up! Today’s Adrien’s birthday remember.” Marinette forces her body up. She reaches for her phone.

1 new notification! From Alya.

 Marinette thinks for a moment. Sighing Marinette opens her phone.

 “Hey girl! I know you and Lila have some love rivalness for Adrien but it his BIRTHDAY! Take your shot! X3. Love ya!”

 “Love rivalness?” Marinette would laugh if she didn’t want to cry. Throwing her self back on the bed she coughs. Marinette learned awhile ago to not cry in front of Tikki.

 “What are you giving Adrien?” Speaking of Tikki.

 “I don’t know.” Marinette gets up. She thinks back to when she would be so crazy about today. But she’s numb. Sighing this must be what its like to fall out of love. She walks down to computer. Her room feels empty. Bare walls from when she tore all of Adrien’s photos down in a bad panic attack.

“What do you mean you don’t know?! You should be so happy! What about all those gifts you had made for him?” Right the gifts that caused Chris to lose it and be akumatized. Marinette hadn’t told Tikki that those gift were all thrown out to.

“There gone. I got rid of them. They were creepy.” Marinette tuned out Tikki. She looks at her half made gifts. Sitting in the middle was a unfinished white and blue scarf. It was almost October. Grabbing it Marinette decided that she would finish it and give it to Adrien.

 The next few minutes Marinette gathers the materials. It takes her almost two hours to finish. A quiet voice says ‘Should have only taken 30 minutes. Slacker.’ Marinette grabs to scarf half tempted to throw it out and starts again. As soon as the thought enters her head all of Marinette’s energy is drained.

 “Oh Marinette it looks beautiful!”

 “Thank you Tikki.” Marinette goes to find a box or bag to put it in. She finds a small black box with a green ribbon tied to it. The contrast should look nice. Wrapping up the scarf. Marinette checks her phone again.

 3 new notification! One from Ayla. Two from Nino.

 Shit. Marinette didn’t take her phone off of silence. Marinette opened Alya’s first.

 “Girl where are you!” At home? Where else would she be.

 Opening Nino’s next, “Mari, where are you?” “Marinette. Please tell me that you know about Adrien’s birthday party?!”

 Marinette could feel Nino’s desperation. Marinette typed no and deleted it over a dozen times. Tears filling her eyes. Marinette sends a simple no she didn’t. Closing her eyes she sighed.

 “Tikki spots on.” Before Tikki could say anything Marinette transforms.

 Ladybug crawls out of Marinette’s room onto her roof. The plan was simple drop the gift off and head back home to sleep this day away.

 The trip was short. Ladybug sits on one of the roofs near the Agreste Mansion. Ladybug could see the class through the window. Everyone looks so happy. Well expect Nino, he pacing in a different room on his phone. Ladybug can only assume that he’s trying to call Marinette. She looked around. Ladybug could see that the gifts are in Adrien’s room. She swings over.

 Ladybug hops in. She thinks about detransforming. But Marinette wasn’t suppose to be here. She wasn’t suppose to be here. Ladybug walks over to the stacks of gifts. She puts her near the bottom. Ladybug hears footsteps and panics. She runs and hides in a closet.

 “Stupid fucking Adrien.” A voice walks in. “Oh look at me. I live in a mansion with my dad and have all the friends I could ever WANT.” *CRASH* Ladybug flinches. Whoever this was is angry. Ladybug was to be out of here. “What do I have! Nothing! He COULDN’T even bother to show up to my dad’s funeral! His mom died when we were six. MY DAD DIED 3 MONTHS AGO.” *SLAMS* The voice is gone.

 Ladybug doesn’t hesitate to get out of there. Running to the window she jumps. Swinging away.

 Ladybug sits at the Eiffel tower. Who was that? Why were they so angry at Adrien. Why didn’t Adrien go to this person’s dads funeral?

  A portal opens under Ladybug.

 “Hello Ladybug.” A unknown voice says. “I hope I wasn’t interrupting anything.”

 Ladybug turns to the voice ready to fight. Standing in front of her was a women? Her body seems to stay out of focus.

“No need to fight. We haven’t met yet… We will soon tho. You can call me the Hare. I am the bunny Miraculous user.”

 “What happened to BunnyX!” The woman seems to float around the darken void.

 “I’m not sure how BunnyX described time to you. But the future is not set in stone and neither was she. In one timeline BunnyX will exist. This is not that time.” The wom- The Hare taps her umbrella on the ground and the void seems to come to life. The room is white and vines grows up. Each branch goes to a different glowing hole.

 “Woah.” Ladybug was amazed.

 “This is my Burrow,” Hare spins with her arm out. “Each of these portals lead to a different future. Which is why I brought you here.” Hare stops.

“Is something wrong with the future!” Ladybug panics.

 The Hare lets out a hardy laugh, “No not our future. Our future is still growing fast,” The hare gesture to the main root that is growing out of the dead center. “No this is a future that has already pasted. On that came and went during BunnyX time.” Hare walks over to Ladybug and taps the ground sending The both of them up. The ground comes to a slamming halt. Ladybug’s stomach entered her throat.

 “Ladybug look.” The Hare hand touches the portal. The portal was dark. Ladybug felt dread creep into her body. A paralyzing fear. She grabs one of Hare’s arm for support. Hare taps the ground twice to move them away from the portal. “I’m sorry. I forgot how being near a dead portal feels.”

 “Dead- Dead portal.”

 “A portal where you other self is gone. The only living person in this future is Chat Noir… Or as he now goes by Chat Blanc. Can I tell you this future’s story?” Ladybug could only give a sad nod.

 “I can’t tell you everything as that would reveal Chat, and HawkMoth’s identities to you. You and Chat did end up dating. It was going well you two are happy… Both in and out of civilian form. Yes, when you two started dating you revealed your identities to each other. But the world decided that neither of you should be happy. People drove you two apart, each of you were hurt. But still you tried to make it work. You two found HawkMoth and when fighting him, things happened and Chat was put into intense emotional distress. HawkMoth thought he could take advantage of it. Akumatizing Chat. But Chat didn’t want to hurt anyone, and end up destroying the moon. Somehow stopping the earth’s rotation and flooding Paris…  Flooding the whole world. Killing everyone, but him. He’s been alone ever since.”

 Ladybug was sobbing. Her chest hurts, her head hurts, everything hurts. Ladybug crumbles onto the floor. Hare just holds her.

 “I ask you to help me put him at rest. It has been several years for him.”

 “Will it bring everyone back?!”

 “The Ladybug miraculous alone can not bring the dead back. I’m sorry.” Ladybug can only sob harder.

 “I’ll help you. I’ll help Chat!” Ladybug looks Hare in the eyes.

 “Understood. Let a few things be known. Chat’s mental health has deteriorated. Try to not get into a fight with him, he will win. I can not bring you back if you… pass” Ladybug understood. No fighting, no dying.

 “Anything else?”

 “He will know you name. Please don’t let that distract you.” Ladybug nodded. Hare made the floor move back to the portal. Holding her umbrella to the portal, drawing a circle, the portal opens wide. “Good luck Ladybug.”

 When Ladybug walks through the portal, she’s freezing eminently. Looking around she seems to be on top of the Eiffel Tower, right where Hare had taken her from. Ladybug can see her breath. Walking to the edge,she only sees inky black water staring back at her. Using the tower as a ruler Ladybug can figure out that at least 3/4 of the tower is in water. About 850 ft above sea level.

 “Oh kitty.” Ladybug whispers. Ladybug can see cars frozen to the top of the water. “I wish I had the ice or water power up on me.” Ladybug jumps down to one of the ice sheets.

 Pulling out her Yo-Yo, maybe she can pick up Chat’s signal.

 Searching… Searching… Searching… BEEP!

 Location found. Agreste Mansion, 738 ft in the air.

 Agreste Mansion? Why would Chat be there? Ladybug puts the Yo-yo away and begins her slow trip to the mansion. Walking and jumping from ice sheet to abandoned car. *CRASH*

 “Ow…” Ladybug lays on her back. Her whole body aches. Pulling her self up. “My god.” Her legs are semi frozen. “Hare! Can you hear me! Whats happening!”

 A voice seems to enter her head. “I’m not sure. Please hurry up, I think that you other self and you are trying to fuse.” Before Ladybug can ask anything else the voice is gone again. Fuse? She was dead here… Dear god she going to die!

 Ladybug tries to stand up, it takes a minute but she manages. Slamming her legs on the ground, she able to get some of the ice off. She breaks into a sprint. No time for sight seeing!

 Coming up to the mansion Ladybug can see a whole glacier where the mansion should be. Swallowing hard, Ladybug jumps onto the glacier.

“Huh?” The ice isn’t cold? Ladybug feels a warmth take over her body. The contrast is startling. Ladybug starts the climb to the top.

 “But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken…”

 A song? Ladybug could faintly hear a voice singing. That has to be Chat.

 “I’ll always love you and make you happy…”

 Ladybug climbs faster. The closer to the top she gets a pain seems to grow in her heart.

 “You told me once, dear, you really loved me. And no one else could come between…”

 She was trying, trying so hard to not start crying. The pain was unbearable. Chat what has happened to you.

 “In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me. When I awake my poor heart pains. So when you come back and make me happy. I'll forgive you dear, I'll take all the blame” Reaching the top, Ladybug can see a man. He sitting looking at the broken moon. When Ladybug takes a step forward the ice cracks.

 “You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You'll never know dear, how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away” The man is standing looking directly at Ladybug. Chat is older, his hair is wild and almost white? His suit instead of the iconic black and green is white and blue. But what makes Ladybug feel sick is… He’s covered in scars.

 “My love! Have you come to see me again?” Chat voice is deeper and scratchy. His eye is wide but unfocused. “Love why do you look different?”

 “Kitty…” Ladybug lets slip.

 “Kitty? No. No. NOnononononononono! I’M YOUR PRINCE! REMEMBER!” He grabs at his hair. Hands starting to glow blue. Ladybug has just a moment to react before a blue explosion is thrown at her.

 “Chat! PLEASE I’M REAL!” Ladybug yells as she lands.

 “REAL! NOTHING IS REAL! YOU’RE JUST HERE TO MOCK ME!” Another explosion. Ladybug is just running around him. No wonder Hare told her not to fight him. ‘Think Ladybug, THINK!’

 A loud explosion caught Ladybug off guard. The ice under started to splinter. Ladybug can’t get traction, her feet keeps slipping. Panicking she grabs her Yo-Yo, she throws it at Chat hoping to grab him. Then she falls.

 Chat stops moving. The world goes still. Slowly Chat grabs the Yo-Yo. His eyes follows the string, across the ice, and over the edge. He rushes towards the edge.

 “You’re… you’re real?” His voice is quiet, small. He almost sounds like a small child.

 “Yes. Yes, I’m real Chat. I was brought here to help you. Please.” Ladybug was hanging of dear life. Chat begins pulling her up. Ladybug grabs his arm and pulls herself onto the flat ice. They both stand still for a moment.

 Chat is towering over her. His hand cups her cheek. *THUD* Chat fall to his knees. He’s sobbing. “Alive, your alive… your alive, alive…”

 “Chat where is the akuma?”

 “-ell.” The answer was so quiet Ladybug couldn’t make it out. Her hand touches Chats shoulder. Looking up, Ladybug can see one of Chat’s eyes was scratched out. She pulls Chat into a hug. Letting her self cry with him.

 After a few minutes she pulls away. She gently takes the bell from Chat’s chest. The bell is freezing in her hand.

 “Chat could you please…”

 “Of course, my lady.” Chat puts his hand over bell still in Ladybug’s hand, “cataclysm”

 Instead of the bell normally dissolving, the bell froze over and shattered.

 “Miraculous Ladybug.” Ladybug take to butterfly into her Yo-Yo and heal it. The wave of butterflies go out. Looking around… The world is still flooded, frozen, dead. Ladybug is grabbed from behind. Chat is holding her again.

 “Please don’t leave me. I can’t be alone again.” Chat sobs, “Please Marinette. Please.”

 Ladybug just puts her hand over Chat’s. “I’m sorry Chat. I’m not from this time. I can’t stay here. I…I won’t survive.” Chat grip tightens. He lets go, hands on Ladybug shoulder keeping her from turning. “Chat?”

 “I don’t want you to see. I-I’m broken, ugly… I’m sorry… I love you.” His voice is soft and sad. In front of them a glowing portal appears.

 “Ladybug it’s time.” Ladybug recognized the voice as Hare. A hand reaches out and touches Ladybug’s head.

 Waking up Ladybug was on top of the Eiffel tower. Rubbing her eyes, she stretches. What happened? Last thing she remembers is dropping of Adrien’s gift and that person yelling.

 “HELLO! My lady!”

 Ladybug turns to see Chat landing on the tower. Her heart pains for a moment. “Hello Chat, what are you doing out and about?”

 “Today is my birthday! Why wouldn’t I want to spend it with you?” Chat smiles.

 “You should have told me yesterday, I could have gotten you something.” Ladybug stands up.

 Chat seems to pause… “I’m not a big fan of my birthday, to be honest.” His voice is quiet. Ladybug just nods.

 “Why don’t we go on patrol then?”

 “Great idea! Lady’s first.” Chat half bows. Snorting, Ladybug takes a running start and jumps.

 BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

 “Huh? Chat your baton is beeping.”

 AKUMA IN THE AREA! AKUMA IN THE AREA!

LOCATION AGRESTE MANSION.

Ladybug pulls out her Yo-Yo. Opening the akuma tracker. “My god, there’s almost half a dozen akumas! What happened!” Ladybug looks over at Chat in worry. Chat eyes seem wide.

“I have an idea. I passed by the Agreste Mansion and there seemed to be some kind of party being broken up. A lot of people seemed very angry.” Chat eyes are cast down.

 “I passed by there earlier and everything seemed just fine.” Ladybug muttered. Chat didn’t respond. “Well HawkMoth been busy, lets get a move one!” Ladybug starts to head south towards Agreste Mansion.

 Landing near the mansion, Chat and Ladybug can see that some of their classmates have been akumatized. Ladybug pulls out her Yo-Yo. Seems due to the shear number of akumas that they are much weaker then there solo counter parts.

 “Luckily HawkMoth can’t empower over a few akumas to their fullest.” Ladybug smiles.

 “Whats the plan?” Chat asks. Ladybug looks at the crowd. Currently all they can see are Lady Wifi, Reflekta, Evillustrator, Bubbler, and Princess Fragrance.

 “Seems that there’s no huge akuma. We need to take out Lady Wifi and Evillustrator first. We might be able to use Bubbler to keep Princess at bay. Avoid Reflekta-” Ladybug is caught off buy a load explosion. Briefly Ladybug vision flickers to a flooded world. Blinking the world is back but a huge hole is where Adrien’s room used to be.

 “Holy shit!” Chat yelps. “They have someone!”

 “No plan grab the hostage!” Ladybug throws her Yo-Yo and throws her self towards the group of akuma.

 Landing in the crowd, “I heard there was a party but this is a little to wild for me.” Chat joked.

 “Leave Ladybug, we want this bastard!” Lady Wifi roars! Evillustrator has chains around this boy.

 “I don’t know who he is but this is to much!” Ladybug throws her Yo-Yo at Evillustrator’s arm. Grabbing him and yanking. He face plants on the floor as Chat swings his baton at the feet of everyone. Sweeping them off their feet. Ladybug runs and grabs the boy, picking him up in a bridal carry. “Let’s go Chat.”

 Ladybug and Chat runs to a more open area, “Who are you and what happened?” The boy doesn’t respond. Ladybug asks again this time in English. The boy eyes go wide.

 “I can speak French just fine.” He responds with a click.

 “Then answer.” Ladybug lands on the roof of Le Grand Paris.

 “I’m Felix Graham de Vanily. Son of Amelie and Isaac Graham de Vanily.” Felix pushes Ladybug away. This voice… He’s the person Ladybug heard yelling. Getting a good look at Felix, he’s wearing dark clothes, and has bags under his eyes. He’s clearly still in mourning.

 “Why are they after you Felix.” Chat asks… Is Chat glaring at Felix?

 “How would I know! What even are those things!?” Felix pushes past Ladybug and Chat.

 “You’re not from Paris are you. Those people are akumas. A villain named HawkMoth turns people in them. It seems that they think you did something.” Ladybug explains.

 Felix stands stiff. He looks up towards the sky. Another vision flashes in Ladybug eyes. This time of a man alone looking towards the night sky.

 Ladybug hearts sinks. As soon as it comes the world is back to normal. Ladybug walks over and puts her hand on Felix’s shoulder.

 “You can trust us.”

 “Today is my cousins birthday. I’m sure you’ve heard of him. Adrien Agreste. I-I… I hate him.” Felix croaks out. Ladybug could understand knowing what she knows.

 “You-you hate him?” Chat speaks. Turning Ladybug can see his eyes. They look shocked.

 “My dad just died!” Felix turns to face Chat and Ladybug, he almost crying. “ HE DIED 3 MONTHS AGO AND MY COUSIN COULDN’T BE BOTHERED TO SHOW UP! BUT NO I HAVE TO SHOW UP TO HIS STUPID BIRTHDAY PARTY!” Felix sobbed.

 Ladybug and Chat were stunned silent. Felix cried into his arm. Ladybug went to touch him but stopped her self.

 “What happened at that party Felix?”

 “It was just suppose to be Adrien, his dad, me and my mom. But his dad had some work” He puts finger quotations around work,” So he left, my mom wasn’t feeling good. She gets migraines. So said she would head back to the hotel and rest and come back for dinner. It was just me and him. But then his stupid friends showed up. With gifts and food. My head started to hurt… I was so mad. I-I called his dad.” Felix admitted.

 “That would do it.” Chat whispered. Before anything else could be said rockets shot at them. Blowing Felix and Ladybug off the building. Ladybug grabs Felix and lands hard.

 She and Felix are surrounded by Reflekta and Princess Fragrance.

 “Lucky Charm!” A hand mirror falls. With out a second notice Reflekta descend append them. Ladybug pushes Felix away, side sweeping Reflekta. Princess grabs Ladybug only for her to be body slammed to the floor by Felix. “Get out of here Felix!”

 “No!” Ladybug can’t respond before Reflekta is back up. Reflekta hold her hand up to shoot a beam at Felix. Ladybug throws the mirror towards Felix, the beam bounces off the mirror and hits Princess Fragrance instead. Princess now stuck as another Reflekta can’t operate her fragrance gun.

 Ladybug bum rushes Reflekta. Reflekta unable to block Ladybug attacks due to being distracted over Princess is quickly knocked out. Ladybug grabs Felix and shoots back up to the roof.

 Throwing her Yo-Yo she hits Evillustrator in the back of the head. Chat is fighting Bubbler and Lady Wifi. Ladybug drops Felix off and runs towards Lady Wifi. Jumping over Lady Wifi, Ladybug raps her legs around her neck and send Lady Wifi flying forwards.

 “How you been My Lady?” Chat asks avoiding one of Bubbler’s bubbles. Ladybug just grunts as she jumps on Bubbler’s back. She wraps one arm under Bubbler arm and the other around his neck. Bubbler began shooting he bubble gun wildly. Chat was about to kick Bubbler’s leg out when they heard a scream.

 “Hey Bubble freak here I am!”

 “Felix what are you doing!” Chat screams but in was to late Bubbler was able to shoot a bubble at Felix. Felix drops to the floor, making the bubble hit Lady Wifi instead.

 Ladybug using the distraction to use her ladybug vision. Felix, Chat, Wifi phone.

 “Felix! Chat! The akuma is in the phone!” Bubbler slams Ladybug into a wall. Felix grabs the phone and tosses it towards Chat. Bubbler shoots another bubble hitting Felix dead on. Chat almost misses the phone.

 “Felix!”

 “The phone you idiot!” Felix yells as he began to rise.

 “Cataclysm!” Chat destroys the phone in his hand.

 “Miraculous Ladybug!” Ladybugs spread out across the city. Nino was standing in front of Ladybug. Felix falls towards the ground as does Alya.

 “Wha? Where are we?” Nino looks around.

 “On top of Le Grand Paris.” Chat responds helping Felix up.

 “YOU!” Alya yells. Chat puts himself in between Alya and Felix.

 “ALYA! Stop!” Nino helps Ladybug off the ground.

 “What he ruined Adrien’s party! Who does he think he is!”

 “HE’S HIS FAMILY!” Chat yelled. “Felix is Adrien’s cousin. You all showed up announced to Adrien’s house, and you’re mad you got thrown out?!” Chat look pissed.

 “Alya, Chat stop. Please understand that you can’t show up at someone’s house and just expect to be first priority. Felix, I feel as though I can’t reprimand you, but please talk to people when your hurting.” Ladybug says also putting her self between everyone.

 “Chat can you help Felix back to the mansion.”

 “Okay, later LB.”

 “Juleka and Rose are a floor below. Please explain to them what happened. I need to leave.” Ladybug turns and jumps of the roof. She swings around Paris, till she feels safe enough to go home.

 Marinette flops on her bed. Tikki starts to eat a cookie.

 “Tikki?”

 “Hm?”

 “Who was in the right? Felix was grieving but everyone was acting entitled. My head hurts.” Marinette covers her eyes. ‘I’m sorry… I love you.’ Tears start to leak out.

 “I don’t know Marinette. Sometimes both people can be wrong and both people can be in the right.” Tikki answers before going silent. What Marinette doesn’t know is that Tikki remembers. Tikki remembers the other timeline, and Hare.

 Marinette showers and changes into new pajamas. Checking her phone one last time.

 57 New Notifications! 40 Text messages from Nino. 16 calls missed from Nino. 1 Text message from Adrien.

 Marinette opens the text from Adrien. A photo of him with the scarf, and a simple thank you.

 Marinette gives a small smile. Closing her eyes Marinette drifts off to a dreamless sleep.

Demise!Izuku as a Youtuber?

Yep! You heard me right. Demise server is a strange little land, full of strange little ideas, unfortunitely this one idea in particular wasn’t so little. So without further ado here’s all the shit we came up with in the server in regards to izuku as a youtuber within demise!au:

If Izuku was a YouTuber can you imagine the fucking chaos dumpster fire his channel would be

He's be like an edgy twink Jenna marbles(edited)

Doing Me time every damn day

bandit is jennas dogs

tenya is julien

He'd have weird ass videos like dipping bandits feet in red pet dye then putting a sign on him that says "you pet and you'll meet the last person who dared to"(edited)

And he's also make videos about him breaking into UA and interrupting classes and stuff

"hey gamers, today we're breaking into UA to see my boyfriend and read all of my friend's secret files"

And a video just of him filing Aizawa in weird places and at the end putting him on an inflatable mattress and watching him float away 

He wakes up in Canada

They don't know how or why

He just attaches a go-pro to trash bandit and let's him run wild. He probably has a seriesJust letting him loose in weird places

DONT LET TRASH BANDIT EAT AIZAWA'S SLEEPING BAG AT 3AM | VERY SCARY"hey guys so today ill be doing the 'How many bottles of quil can i steal before i get caught by Tsukabitch' challange. feel free to make a video of your own!" 

He probably dyes Bandit according to holidays and puts him as the profile picture. The kicker is, he only does it for holidays that his country doesn't celebrate

Like 4th of july

And Canada day

"Hewo soulless fuckers it is me your overlord, King of the soulless fuckers. Today I'll be going up to people in the streets and telling them that I killed God and Satan. But y'all know me, that's not enough. So I'll be asking them which one I killed first and if they get it wrong I take a shot of quil. The quil I'll be taking is the plain ol kind so don't worry your little marshmallow heads about it." 

He only makes text posts in OwO speak this just makes me realise demise!izuku would make a great youtuber

He would twitch stream all the time doing the weirdest shit for hours on end

"what is up gamews! today i wiww be weviewing the new game cawwed life! i have been pwaying it fow about 16 yeaws now and i have to say it's pwetty bad my guys!"

I feel like he'd be absurdly popular and whenever someone mentions him and they look up the channel they are like "wth have I stumbled upon?!"

I'm just imagining what his front page would look like

The seasonal trash bandit profile picture, the banner would be a flaming hellscape with people he dislikes burning and trash bandit looming on low opacity in the background 

(He made it so that only people who view it on TV get the full experience.)

He probably has his own segment on buzzfeed unsolved

Not talking

Its about him

The intro video would just be him staring into the camera while mixing together a horrible concoction of quil then downing it without breaking eye contact(edited)

His about section is written in 3 different types of code and it's all in owo if you manage to crack it

i love demise|!izuku as a youtube cryptid

Clown Speak and OwO speak mixed together

I feel like in the beginning Izuku was this obscure YouTuber that you only find out about if someone in the know tells you about it until a bigger YouTuber found him out on a deep dive video and just couldn't stop watching yes

i imagine once he gets big people from react channel would invite him to react to videos of people reacting to his videos 

What if in one of his videos he started acting like his old self just to freak everyone out. He didn't say anything about it instead he talked about hero analysis with a bright smile and trail off into muttering a few times only to blush when he realized it. He have his hair in a ponytail with only bangs framing his face and some messy pieces falling out. Also her be wearing something plain but like old Izuku, maybe hero merch or something. The comment section was just people flipping out and shit

He never acknowledges the video after he made it

No matter how many comments he gets he acts like it doesn't exist

omg you know wha tthat would actually allign with the demise and canon swap places for a da

yand you know what that gives me a lot of feels

the millions of subscribers get to see the old izuku

Maybe after a milestone he would post a video he made in middle school of him analyzing a quirk in video format to make sure it wouldn't get destroyed

And he put a couple videos of younger him after it

But it starts being supporting Izuku

And his present and past self and stuff

PEOPLE MAKE FAN ART first Its all full of trash and memes

What if that picture of canon Izuku meeting demise Izuku was a fan art someone made of his old self meeting the new him 

Kids from his class kinda Piecing together they really screwed up?Some even sending in apologies, perhaps

For mental health day I could see him posting a serious video about what he went through and his time in the mental hospital 

And on national stop bullying day he would talk about his decade of abuse including the details of how the school and teachers fucked up and everything aboutbakugou

izuku using youtrube for shitposting and advocating

And for mothers day he features both Rei and Inko?

Endeavor exposure video

What if Rei helped edit or something?To help pass the time for her

Give her something to do

People love the mysterious editor

I feel like villains watch his content like maybe Dabi

rei and fuyumi sometimes make appearances

Dabi just shows up in the videos

Quickly become faves

I feel like Dabi would become a fan and start crying after seeing his mom happy in one of Izuku's videos

"...and this is rei, my hospital mom and this if fuyumi, her daughter so like my sister she helps me keep my shit together and sometimes gives me quil.." 

dabi crying from seeing his mom happy in some lunatic's youtube videos

“...and this is shin, dont let the looks deceive you this man went to jail"

Shin comes in and covers the cameras a lot

FATHERS DAY IS A PICTURE OF TRASH BANDIT WITH HIS DADS VOICE SCRAMBLED OVER IT

“and this is the local florida woman and her alligator

WHAT IF BNHA VERSE HAD QUIRKLESS AWARENESS WEEKizuku would go ape shit during that week

"who needs a quirk when my dad gave me a gun!"

He would give axe sharpening tips

"Remember kids! Society won't help you, so you gotta help yourself!"

he would make 'how to cook videos' except it would only be quil combos

What if one day he just put quil in the ovenand pulled out a muffin

Remeber, don't try this at home kids." makes A horrifying quil combo "rememer never ever do this even if you have a quirk that allows it." downs the horror concoction

"so today were gonna do my boyriend does my makeup challange and since both me and tenya are dumb and know nothing i borrowed my mums makeup..." 

It’s a given he’s gonna do makeup tutorials. The real question is would they be good or absolutely horrendous?

good or horrendous? Both

Amazing makeup at horrendous things? Hmmm interesting

“Hey guys today I’m turning myself into a real like eldrich abomination with the help of eyeliner and glitter!”

izuku has a whole playlist of videos dedicated to tenya and UA

theyre all jsut shitposty compilations of some footage when tenya isnt looking

Even tho it looks like he couldn't give a fuck he is very selective with which footage makes it online. He's very careful at how much is revealed and makes sure no students or secret identities would be in danger with his content

izuku isnt stupid...hes jsut having a good time

Sneaking into UA highschool by hiding in pro hero eraserhead's sleeping bag | NOT CLICKBAIT

Izuku would totally play carefree and childish games while just being Izuku

Like his animal crossing series

Fucking legendary on his channel in terms of gaming

izuku's sims lets play

it's like a 10 generation long telenovela lowkey based off the todoroki family

He has no straight sims, he recreated UA and class 1a in sims

the wedding of sim izuku and sim tenya is like the biggest party in the sim neighbourhood

He creates endeavor just to lock him in a room with 50 ovens

Omg his draw my life has got to be super depressing

He'd be super blunt and monotone during his whole draw my life going through all of the abuse and bullying that he went through because of his quirklessness and also his suicide attempt and all that jazz(edited) 

izuku would paint on a potato

Izuku would make a get ready with me where he does something totally batshit crazy then ends it with "Ah. Yet another day in my life."

Izuku meets Marie Kondo

“Only keep what brings you joy”

“Well this gun from my father sure brings me joy”

Knifemaking videos but with axes

Izuku decided to do a wardrobe tour and like 4 things were bloodstained which he never addressed. The most popular comment was what happened, which of course he never answered.

Izuku does these new year (like all of the questions from last year) or milestone Q+A’s/AMA's which are basically people just asking a bunch of the things he wouldn't answer or address before. A lot of his viewers write down and timestamp when he does something and doesn't address it. If you don't you'll never hear an answer.

He has his boonk gang phrase which is probably like Bandit gang or some shit like that, which he shouts while breaking into places. UA dorm rooms, UA facility office, UA, Hero Agency’s, Endeavour's bedroom (Don't ask), etc. 

He has a variety of videos where he does things from different communities. For example he has a few hair tutorial and following hair tutorial videos. Same for makeup.I feel like Izuku would also have some dresses and slutty Halloween costumes that be put on in a video all while looking like someone who just had finals and was studying for 4 days straight beforehand.

At like 4AM a thought hit Izuku to have Trash Bandit meet Kouta for the first time and learn what his sheep talks about and what he has to say. Needless to say he took his camera, went to UA, stormed the dorms, went up to the shy kid sheep in hand, looked him dead in the eye, and asked “What is my sheep saying.” bandit speaks and Kouta goes from confused and slightly scared to disgusted and horrified. What did Bandit say? Who the fuck knows…

Izuku loves analysis and while he doesn't do it for heroes anymore when he misses it too much sometimes he does it with tv shows or other things.

Idk what yet but Izuku is weirdly good at something and only showed it on camera once. (He's casually known to be a good artist) Whatever he's good at he did it once for a video and it's in one of the most popular compilation videos of him. 15 minutes of Izuku being a cinnamon roll.

Izuku has a shit ton of videos featuring the UA kids. He has some playlists dedicated to certain ones even if all you see is the back of their head.

Any proceeds Izuku manages to get (he is popular but he gets demonetized a lot) goes to different charities for the quirkless.

He made only 1 serious cooking video on his birthday, but instead of using a knife he used an axe.

He has a video called “My sharp things (tour)” where he just shows off all of his knives and axes and shit along with a massive pair of scissors he got Momo to make.

Izuku makes videos of himself destroying endeavor merch while staring at the camera.

002: for any of my messy children wjegjl

are u ready for a monster of a post???

002 | Give me a character & I will tell you

Soren Song:

How I feel about this character: i don’t think i have new ways to tell you how much i love his boy???? and he’s been through so many changes from when you first started playing him in sus, i can’t believe the boy you have now and how much i love him and how much you still put in that childish innocence in him that comes out in bursts in his threads that’s both so soft and heartbreaking all at once bc he’s this giant tragedy of all his wants and fears and not fully able to tell them apart anymore???? and wanting to be loved so much but he still destroys some of his relationships by testing that and wanting to keep up this image he has that’s this plaything that’s destroying himself and being destroyed by others, i hate and love you and some other day i’ll rant AGAIN on how much i love your characterization and writing in general and level of characterization you do, teach me ur ways

All the people I ship romantically with this character: soren x something soft bc i will fight for soft things for this boi u can’t stop me, BUT ALSO, soren/link, soren/noah, lowkey soren/li hua hateship

My non-romantic OTP for this character: soren x lenny, soren x emme, soren x carter, soren x xue, soren x aura, soren x noah

A headcanon with my character: what headcanons don’t we have for emme/soren, but Here We Go Again: so emme having a soft vision of an older soren when she was a young kiddo, imagine a parallel of this when she has another vision of him just before she met him of the soren he will become years from now and just the chaos spiral, and we talked about her knowing the direction he’s heading in, but not fully before they became friends i think? or having a drawing of that too somewhere, one she would try to hide from herself, but not throw away, maybe hidden under her bed, and he could find this one and recognize himself and the person he’s becoming, and the subtle conversations of emme always kind of knowing where he was going and always treating him as she did despite it, or even thinking he could be the one she could finally save/change the future for, and him having not just a hint of what he’s becoming, but a real image and real proof of what he looks like beyond himself, and her having to come to terms with the idea that this isn’t it, him feeling the acceptance from her, but what we talked about too of just him testing that loyalty in Terrible ways

My OTP: I don’t KNow I don’t KNOW, i see u and soj with link and soren, but also where is someone that will not hurt this boy, but Importantly, who this boy won’t hurt and things Longlasting, and everything is hurting my heart

My OT3: if i didn’t say soren/emme/carter i’d be a traitor against myself; soren/li hua/noah even tho i still don’t know really what’s happening???

Sol Qiao:

How I feel about this character: OKAY i know too well about u wanting sol as just this chaos wrecker and turning character development on its head and u are doing so well and this woman is killing me one step further with each thread and headcanon i read????? all while i love everything you do with her characterization and her simply being her, she had this power you can read in your writing of her, this confidence and control she has over everything she does, featuring being so unapologetic about what she’s doing and she’s so manipulative and secretly in control of so much shit around her that she’s this shadow in people’s lives without them knowing, but she Knows and that’s so fun to read and have as a character around, along with her kind of jealousy and want to be this Sole figure in people’s lives sometimes???? keep on killing me with her???

All the people I ship romantically with this character: tbh sol/laurel, i need no explanation. sol/ceydran?? sol and just wrecking shit like she deserves, sol and golden things, sol/me

My non-romantic OTP for this character: sol x li hua, sol x emme, sol x link, sol x lenny, sol x xue, sol x aura, really sol and all these kids she’s mothering or jsut being lovely (Terrible) with, ending my life for

A headcanon with my character: malachi and sol things, when will they not murder me??? i’m still dead at them watching movies together and just those small things we’ve mentioned besides all the shit he does for her just for a taste of blood and at some point for his own wants beyond blood and loss of humanity she’s supporting, and OKAY, but let’s talk about the beyond things and all the little things he does for her bc he could do a lot - lowkey casual bodyguard when they go places even though she doesn’t need it really but the image of a bodyguard helps, reminder of who’s the boss here???? mal and cleaning up her messes that don’t involve blood, it’s just making sure she isn’t bothered where she goes?? mal and sol and him cooking dinners for her and both of them knowing the last time he really cooked it was for a big family and know just him and maybe sol. and just like the movies they watch together, just really pretentious things too 

My OTP: idk yet but i know in my heart, it’s probably a power couple and/or gay 

My OT3: noah/ceydran/sol as what the fuck is happening?? sol/laurel/marci as ladies that could kill me and i’d let them

Theo Nam:

How I feel about this character: i need 10 million rants daily about this boy!! and i know you don’t write softs often and you are doing great my sweet babe this boy!!! theo has killed me everyday since idea of him came up and there’s a really tragic aspect of him that comes up so much in threads and is weaved into how he treats people and how he behaves that’s so nervous and being slightly separated from the world and people, while still being so apart of the world in a way, but really like as roots, as nature and maybe it’s people that don’t understand him and not the other way around bc he’s in this inbetween place of living??? and something that i’ve loved to read too is his possible fall into madness and how he’s facing that or just the way he is around those like nadia and kanta and omari and where that could lead with his character is really interesting bc the questions of what is his mental health with or without these influences around him too

All the people I ship romantically with this character: theo/emme bc u know who i am, theo/aura????, theo x being happy dammit, theo x soft things, theo x sleeping

My non-romantic OTP for this character: theo x cat, theo x kanta, theo x ceydran, theo x omari as terrible things, theo x xue, theo x mal

A headcanon with my character: u know i’m always on my bullshit with softness??? and we’re talking about theo and emme and relearning what family is supposed to be like while they’re both kinda blind together about it?? and pillowtalk of what they think family should feel like - the questions emme’s asking though about what having a big family is like and small stories of living on the farm and only the soft things and stories of emme going through magazines pretending people were her parents and really using tv references for what she thinks family is like, and where this all just develops, from the sad things to the things they idealize about families and silent trying for redefinitions of people that will leave. and then the soft, lowkey sad things of them talking about homes like in the thread now as this dream-like place before maybe they turn real and start to sound like real plans and places bc emme probably associates family too with specific places w/ all their moving around or at least being together, and now their dates in cities but they go stores too just to walk around, casual mention of things they like but know right now they can’t have in any place, before family can be full defined as people and feelings without past pain and having family be something seeming out of reach??

My OTP: theo x emme bc i enjoy nice things for my children

My OT3: nadia/kanta/theo as the worst thing to ever happen in my life??? theo/ceydran/emme as soft funfair things thanks

@fcxxes

[sigurdjarlson]

Reading the BoS terminals on the Prydwen give me so much joy

Maxson gives motivational speeches even in his emails

Maxson told Cade to prioritize mental health and treat it as a legitimate medical issue

He also mentions that he knows very well that being stuck on the Prydwen can be detrimental to your mental health

he ordered violent confrontation to be a last resort (synths being the exception..sometimes? You can bring em in his damn ship lmao) and to trade tech for food and medicine

Maxson uses caps when he’s angry

Maxson cares deeply for Ingram to the point he ignores Cade telling him she would be MORE equipped than any other soldier on the battlefield and instead keeps her on the ship because “Please don’t take this personally. I can’t afford to lose you. My decision is final. I’m sorry.”

Teagan hated seeing Ingram stomp around “with that damn scowl on your face” and specifically got some of her favorite candies to share with her

Quinlan is writing Maxson’s biography and being super creepy about it

People have literally made cults worshipping Maxson which Maxson hates and actively has then disbanded

Quinlan is a huge comic book nerd and tries to hide it but lowkey has scribes fetch him comics

Danse was diagnosed with PTSD but refused to take time off.

Ingram does too and was complaining about phantom pains where her legs were

Teagan apparently has fallen down drunk around the Prydwen multiple times and it’s happened so many times Cade has to order treatment now

Some soldier got an STD that apparently only comes from ghouls

Maxson had his coat specially made and Teagan was excited to give it to him

It was Rhys who had Neriah’s mole rats delivered (he said she owed him the bottle of whiskey she promised because they bite and shit everywhere) but he couldn’t get a pilot to take a Brahmin cuz they refused to put “that disgusting thing” in their vertibird

If you look at the recreational terminal downstairs Ingram says it’s for general use for the soldiers but it will be shut down if things “don’t stay clean”

in said terminal you can see several people writing to their families and then someone talking about going on feral hunts, and another person talking about who holds the highest record for jumping from a super high height in power armor. Someone jumped from trinity tower apparently but it destroyed their power armor so it didn’t count

..and other BoS crap I like.

if you listen to the soldiers talk you’ll hear them talk about tipping Brahmin with vertibirds

if you talk to the squires while with Dogmeat they’ll lament that they aren’t allowed to have pets (quinlan has a cat tho??)

they’ll also talk about how they want to be “a great soldier even greater than Paladin Danse”

Maxson apparently personally talks to them often cuz they quote motivational things he’s said to them a lot.

Danse mentions that he doesn’t agree with having kids on a warship but it’s not his place to question Maxson’s orders.

after BB the squires will be very upset and call Danse a liar/traitor. they just sound so sad and hurt UGH

Danse is referred to as well-liked by Maxson (it just made me smile and then..not smile cuz he was ordering Kells to hunt him down)

Maxson made Quinlan and co go over the data multiple times just in case there was some mistake (mostly mentioning this cuz I feel a little annoyed when people say it was on a whim)

if you tell Danse Maxson sounds like a lunatic he’ll tell you not to judge him by his words but to judge him by his actions cuz they’ll prove his sincerity. He’ll also frown at you for a long time afterwards. He gave my sosu the dirtiest look in an old playthrough.

if you fail missions Maxson will (aggressively) lecture you about the importance of accepting responsibility for your actions, learning from your mistakes and bettering yourself.

He refers to you as “my friend” if you make a comment about being impatient to get into the institute

If you kill Li he’s absolutely fucking furious with you. “She was misguided but she was never a traitor.” And before that he’ll bite your head off if you suggest they’re going to torture her

you can fuck up every mission and despite your major fuck ups he promotes your ass and looks at you all :D even after you joke about murdering him to take his place as elder

“hand on the shoulder moment” is how one of his audio files prior to you going into the institute is described and I’m not sure why I find that so amusing??

[someobscurereference]

fe anon here! Woah I'm actually crying your answer was so Intense and just So Much. Thank you! I love hearing your thoughts on their relationships. Out of curiosity tho, I sent an ask a while back about whether or not you'd be willing to share some more headcanons on how the Nohrian sibs+Beruka and Niles would interact with/react to the deaged awakening trio (and vice versa)? Bc I know u weren't sure you'd continue. Did Tumblr eat that? If ur comfortable talking about it I'd still love to know!

Oh, no, Tumblr absolutely ate that! My inbox is empty 99% of the time, so I definitely would have remembered something like that. If I don’t answer something within a few days, definitely feel free to re-send any asks because that means I didn’t see it!

As a whole, the kids would be wayyyy more wary of the Nohrians right off the bat, even if they’re told what happened and they believe it. They’d be like, “Really? A world without Risen?” and everyone else would say, “what the fuck is a Risen” and then they’d shut up real fast because these are Strangers. All three would probably be convinced they were actually in Plegia somehow until proven otherwise. 

Also, they’d still want to fight because that’s what they’ve been used to their whole lives, but the war is probably over at this point? So it’s just wandering packs of bandits and Faceless to take care of, and if one of the Royal Sibs or even someone the Trio knows goes out to take care of Faceless, the Trio wants to go too because they’re used to protecting their home and they feel restless and anxious to just be sitting around doing nothing. 

“No?” Literally everyone else says. “You’re like fourteen???”

“Yeah, and so’s Elise?” the Trio says, even though Elise is a few years older by this point. “It’s the same thing. But we actually have swords.”

“It’s different.”

“It absolutely isn’t.”

It’s uncomfortable for everyone. 

Also if they actually did sneak away and fight a Faceless, they’d probably be very efficient about it and work together really well, despite bickering almost 24/7 amongst each other in every other minute of every day. Risen are undead, so they don’t “die” the way most enemies would, and Faceless, though without souls, don’t work the same way? A Faceless is bigger but it will fall if you slice it enough times, unlike a Risen that takes extra effort and energy. So Faceless are actually a little easier to kill, but the fact these 13/14 year olds have so much experience fighting to kill would probably bother anyone that thought about it for 0.2 seconds. “Like. I know we grew up in Nohr, but that’s Not Good.” 

Fighting bandits is a different story, and I think if the Trio had to see actual humans hurting other humans, it would mess them up a lot because they came from a time where everyone who didn’t work as a group probably died already? Since lone figures cannot win against a pack of Risen by themselves. So humans vs humans is not anything they really think about until now. Laslow and Odin would probably take this extra hard because their moms were pretty caring and kind people (especially as healers/dancers, whose job it is to help and encourage people), while this would also fuck with Selena but she maybe got a talking to a little more explicitly from her mother or father before they left. (I’m taking this from Laslow’s conversation with Odin in…either the Hot Spring or Harvest Scramble DLC, where Laslow admits that taking his first human life after jumping through time nearly destroyed him because that wasn’t something he thought he’d ever have to do.)

Honestly, living is a peaceful world without fighting is probably the most important thing for their mental health. 

Odin

I’ve been lowkey thinking about this for a long time, but Odin would probably gravitate towards Elise a lot? Both because she has a very accepting and bubbly personality (she RP’d with Odin just because it was cool, and now they’re even closer in age so she’d probably do it again) and honestly she probably reminds him of Lissa. Straight up. Blond hair, pigtail style, youngest sibling, healer, cares a lot, etc. Even if he hadn’t recently lost his mom (which was probably semi-recently, since I hc Lissa being the last to go in the doomed timeline), he still would gravitate towards her. So they chill a lot. 

Leo is probably like lowkey jealous? Because Odin isn’t as interested in him anymore whereas he’d been totally devoted as an adult. He just wants to chill with Elise and other “cool” people and sometimes be by himself to fight imaginary enemies, so Leo actually gets a little more grumpy. Plus Odin uses swords now? Even though Leo had figured out Odin hadn’t used tomes all his life, it was still something they connected on and now this kid is insisting that swords and swordsmen are the coolest (like Xander) and Leo is very :/// about it. (Until maybe Odin sees Leo use Brynhilder and gets all starry eyed. Doubly so if you hc Odin’s dad as a mage. Leo coughs and blusters and pretends it’s not super strange to be the loudly admired person out of all his sibs for once.)

Niles would put on a big teasing front for Odin and probably follow him around a lot even though Odin probably is really distrustful of him, both because he loves annoying little punk kid Odin who takes himself so seriously and because Niles feels like he has to make sure Odin doesn’t run off and hurt himself. (Either Leo or Niles is always hanging around Odin, actually, or at least has someone they trust watching all three kids because magic is strange and they don’t want anything bad happening because the kids got spooked in this new world or something.) 

Actually Niles probably spends the most time keeping an eye on Odin because of that interaction they had when Odin was first de-aged, as Odin’s reaction was so uncharacteristic of his adult self. He’s actually concerned about the kind of world Odin grew up in, and he might not pry too hard, but he’s definitely keeping an eye and ear out for any concerning stuff. 

(Odin, meanwhile, thinks Niles is Evil because he’s a creepy guy who keeps following Odin around and he’s heard bad rumors about Niles and Odin’s brain is insistent that this guy Has To Be A Villain.)

(Maybe that changes, but they’d have to have some kind of heart-to-heart first. Maybe because Odin really does go too far and Niles has to pull him out of some trouble.)

Selena

Camilla probably wants to dote on Selena pretty hard, but Selena is Not Having It. 

“But this will wear off soon, and it’s not every day I get to see my darling retainer so young and cute,” Camilla coos. “Just enjoy yourself. When you’re an adult again, I’ll having you running errands again in no time.” 

Selena: “I don’t know you!! You’re not my mom!! Stop acting like it!”

Camilla, serious: “I’m absolutely not your mother and never will be/want to be.” (Back to cheerful) “But that doesn’t mean we can’t do X/Y/Z together.”

Basically she treats Selena a lot of the same way she treated baby Corrin, only Selena resists it a lot more. As time goes by and they realize through context clues that the Trio actually had a really rough life, Camilla maybe has a few conversations with her about what it’s like to grow up in a world where you can die at any moment and the whole world is out to get you (Selena via the Risen/Grima and Camilla via assassins/the other mothers of her half-siblings and Garon’s wives.) It’s a tough life, and Camilla gets where Selena’s need to fight and get better is coming from.

Beruka probably doesn’t really have any experience with children at this point? She doesn’t know what to do except treat Selena or the others like smaller adults, which Selena actually appreciates a lot but also maybe stresses her out a bit. 

When they first meet, Selena looks up at Beruka (probably not too far because Selena is really Tall for her age and also in general and Beruka is probably shorter than adult Selena) and says, “So you’re Lady Camilla’s retainer like me, right?”

“Correct,” Beruka says. Because it is.

“Am I a better retainer than you?” Selena demands, hands on her hips, and Beruka. Stares. Because it’s really driving home that Selena’s insecurities started Young.

(Also if Subaki is ever around, she probably hates his guts because he has red hair like her mom and is viewed as “perfect” because he strives to be so all the time and it makes her too uncomfortable and she Hates It. Niles loves laughing at this 13/14 year old girl chewing the hell out of this grown ass man just for existing.)

Laslow

Laslow is super short, worse about hiding his shyness than he was at twenty-something, and stumbles sometimes when talking to adults (especially beautiful people and people with a lot of power, so Xander is a double-whammy, but so is half the army), but by golly, does he try to flirt with anything that breathes. He’s not as smooth as his adult self, but sometimes he pulls off some okay lines. Even though everyone is like “You…are a child.” 

(Laslow gets that he’s a kid and he doesn’t even usually flirt seriously as an adult, but when people keep using that line on him even when he’s trying to do some good and fight, he gets really internally frustrated because he wasn’t a child when everyone died and he had been fighting a war where half the army was his age, was he? Lot of complex feelings there.)

Xander can Relate a lot because he was also super shy as a child and if this is how Laslow overcomes that in his own way (especially since this was apparently his mother’s advice, who Laslow values a lot), Xander doesn’t really want to be the one to stop him. But also he is Exasperated because he keeps getting complaints that this bratty 14 year old is flirting with half the women in the army and town and can he Not??? Can Laslow just chill for like two minutes?? Is there no better solution????

Sometimes he helps teach Laslow how to spar properly, just like he did for Corrin and his other sibs, and he respects Laslow’s apparent drive to protect others and sees somewhat through Laslow’s cheerful, flirty facade to the more struggling kid underneath.

Peri coos over Laslow a bit, but he’s not big enough to fight with her/by her side anymore and she doesn’t want to kill him, so there’s not a ton they can do together. She watches him when told to, though, and sometimes even withought even being told, and they manage to get a long surprisingly well. (She’s a great cook and sometimes shares her snacks with him, and they bond through that.)

All three kids probably interact the same way they did with each other as immature people, so they actually don’t get along very well? When not in immediate danger? Like Odin’s bffs were Cynthia and Brady, probably. He and Laslow keep getting into brawls, which is… mildly concerning, actually. Laslow keeps stealing his journals (”It’s not a diary! Give it back!” “It absolutely is, and no”) and Odin keeps insulting him. Selena and Laslow don’t get along because Laslow is too flirty and Selena thinks he’s just making fun of her. She’s a little better with Odin (who in their FE13 support I think was said to have still treated her with kindness, even when she was mean to him) but she keeps getting flustered and fed up with his antics and growing up?? Is so hard??? It’s so hard, and nobody understands. 

The difference between getting along as kids and how they get along as adults is astounding. 

(All three of them worry about their friends back home, even though they don’t say anything. Supposedly those guys and gals are all adults now too, but?? Who’s gonna walk Noire to the bathroom at night? Who’s gonna protect Brady? Who’s gonna make sure Gerome doesn’t become too much a loner and die???? They Worry.)

(If you wanted me to expand on something more specific, let me know!)

EDIT: Also one of the kids at some point definitely asks how old they were and get old “like 25” and they are all Shocked. Like. One of them (probably Odin, who also expected to die a heroic death by 16) says aloud “I made it to 20??!??” shocked.

Everyone else takes a moment to compose themselves and remind themselves that there’s a lot they don’t know about these three

[mycomori]

Rekmid, even or odd, Thea with the other

1: What’s your OC’s biggest insecurity and how would they react if someone pointed it out to them?

That she’s not doing a good enough job being captain, that she’s not strong enough to support the people she needs to. She would probs fall completely silent and, depending on who was saying it, either take it directly to heart or try and convince herself that it’s not true (even as she’s already completely taking to heart, /cough). But if it’s someone she trusts, she’s gonna take it to heart and then take action, if not, then she’ll keep it in mind

3: Does your OC behave differently around different people, if so with whom and how?

She’s pretty consistent. She’s obviously more open emotionally with her friendos, especially with Sylvia, but her values and general attitudes stay the same. There’s more of a difference between her on the job and (relatively) off, like she’ll put a lot more effort into her outfit, posture, and the like when on the job and she watches her words a lot more, and takes as much care as possible to not swear. (which she failed in her VERY FIRST SPEECH but then she got a fuck ton better at it). But that’s not so much specific people (okay with Briorge she defaults to On The Job and has to work herself back down to Off the Job mode but OTHER THAN THAT), just specific situations

5: How would your OC generally react to someone being verbally abusive towards them for no apparent reason?

Again it depends on who does it.

If it’s a friend, she’s going to be like ‘oh no, something’s up with them’ and try to help them out and would just shrug off pretty much everything said to her.

If it’s a stranger, she’s going to like *squints suspiciously* and try to handle it diplomatically.

If it’s a like real close friend, she’s gonna take that shit to heart, even if it turns out that they were angry because of something else, but like, still not lash out and just take it, gods give her a hug

7: Does your OC have any irrational phobias?

i’m trying 2 just like,,,,,, go through canon n think of times her confidence has been boosted when she was feeling down n i literally cannotthink of a time, she always takes n dismantles whatever attempts 2 boost her confidence r made

when she’s down she stays down, when she succeeds she just takes it as what’s supposed to happen and not as a sign that she’s doing well or as anything that should boost her confidence

so it’s

actually really hard to boost her confidence, holy shit, it’s really only possible to soothe her a bit n even thats hard 2 do
