FOR YOUR BOP S/I: 📝🥰 🙈 🎞️

OUGHHGGGH THANK YOU KITTY MY FRIEND 🫶🏼 sorry it took me almost a WEEK to answer this i am simply! a silly goose!!

📝 How would your story in canon go? How would you influence the events of the original story?

Tbh I haven’t fleshed Scarlet’s canon story out a whole lot!! I lean towards her being a reporter following the events of the crossbow killings and getting caught up in the crosshairs. She has the power to adjust people’s emotions which is sort of how she gets her way thru the story, and I think she’d mostly be following Montoya around until she meets Harley and becomes like. Instantly smitten. She meets Helena when the other Birds do and is also instantly smitten 🥰

🥰 How would someone who loved you portray you?

Omg I think the ppl that love Scarlet would find her so funny. She’s the more levelheaded realist between Helena’s nihilism and Harley’s act-without-thought attitude and I feel like fans would love that she’s essentially the kindergarten rope that holds the Birds of Prey together.

🙈 Why would your ship be thought of as cute/fluffy? Why would your ship be considered problematic?

Definitely cute and fluffy because of the support and adoration they all have for each other. The scene in the diner where they’re all gushing over one another? It’s that times a thousand. And truly the only problematic reason i could think of is maybe ppl who disapprove of poly relationships!

🎞️ What ‘canon’ scenes would the fandom point to as evidence for the validity of your ship?

DINER SCENE FOR SURE the three of them gushing at one another while Montoya and Dinah and Cass are like 👀 ALSO the scene where Helena slides down the tunnel and Harley goes “you are SO cool” and Scarlet’s probably like blushing and biting her lip.

RE as LPS part 3! RE4R, RE5, and RE6 as LPS!

Explanations below 😋

I reached the tag limit 💀💀💀 so here’s two tags I had to get rid of! Final part coming out tomorrow and I was gonna add Mike, but didn’t to keep the number even! Just know he’s a bird!

Ashley - I really wanted to play with her “baby eagle” codename and maker her a bird (duck #150 ), but I personally don’t think it truly fits, but I do think a lip eater bunny fits! Especially cause of her hair! Bunny is #95!

Merchant - Donkey #1944! Hear me out, donkeys are great at carrying lots of stuff…Merchant carries lots of stuff…therefore, donkey, case closed, thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Luis - Goat #1952! He was lowkey hard to find an LPS for, but I saw this lil goat with the heart nose and I couldn’t resist.

Hunnigan - Lamb #2101! Except her bow would be a pen tee hee! And with glasses ofc!

Krauser - I’m not super happy with the LPS I chose for Krauser, but I do know he screams loyal dog that’s been wronged one too many times and has started biting. For now, I assigned him German Shepard #1800.

Salazar - He’s an ant. Tee hee.

Saddler - Saddler was so damn hard to decide what LPS he would be. I do NOT think my choice is a good choice tbh, but I was so done with this guy, I just settled 💀 he’s an anteater cause he manipulated Salazar and is basically the reason everything happened.

Méndez - HE’S A SPIDER!!!!! Probably wouldn’t have the bow, but maybe he’s feeling fashionable you never know!!!

Sheva - Sheva my beloved 💖 I initially thought of a lioness, but turns out all the lioness models are just jaguar models 💀

Josh - The moment my eyes landed on Corgi #1767…I just knew…That’s just Josh!!! Okay, maybe he wouldn’t be a corgi, so I did some more digging and a bear model may also fit him perhaps???

Reynard - Perhaps a cat??? Or a fish to play on his last name???

Spencer - Hear me out. A lion. But an old Lion who’s way past his prime and is dethroned by another Lion (referencing my LPs stars post)

Irving - Irving lowkey looks like the greyhound model…plz tell me you see it too

Excella - Chinchilla or poodle?? Both are well groomed and love keeping clean (as clean as they can be) and stubborn.

Helena - She’d either be Spaniel #156 or Dachshund #172!

Piers - This new dog!!! He’s either a husky or wolf (I’ve also seen wolf dog), but he gives Piers energy fr fr. (Sorry it’s blurry, with this guy being new, the pics aren’t high quality yet)

Finn - He’s a capybara!! Finn I love you forever fr fr💖💖💖 I have this one and I adore it so much (also sorry the pic isn’t clean, this guy is new and I don’t think anyone has uploaded a transparent background pic yet!)

Jake - Fox #807! It has his red hair!! Also the fox and hound dynamic between him and Piers was too good to miss.

Simmons - Cat #055! Nothing much to say here other than ew…Simmons… (I love the kitty tho, droopy eyed kitties are the best)

Carla - I know she’s supposed to be a perfect copy of Ada, but I think it’d be super interesting if their colors were inverted or maybe white fur would start to peek out over time!

just realised i need to be asking you for severance fic recs 👀 i always love your takes, you seem to have great taste in fics, plus you’re a great writer 🙂‍↕️ if you’re comfortable with sharing!

Ahh thank you so much 💖💖

of course!! I love sharing fic recs ❤️ and this fandom is so talented, there's so much good stuff to read. Here we go:

sick as it sounds - this is my favourite fic at the moment. Markhelena, canon divergence from their first meeting. Kind of a dark romcom. I'm obsessed with how Mark and Helena are written and interact, it's so good.

exit wound - THEE Hellylena fic. Also a bit of Markhelly, but the focus is the relationship between Helly and Helena. It's a psychological mindfuck. I love it.

deferred compensation - this is a dark take on post reintegration Markhellyna and it's so insane and so so good.

In The Grip Of A Hurricane - also post reintegration Markhellyna, but a happier and lighter version. They're a mess, but also perfect for one another. This is the second part in a series, and I recommend reading both, but this is my favourite.

Paper Creatures - if I'm not mistaken, this is the first Sev fic I read. Markhelly, but mostly a Hellyna character study. Amazing writing style.

Bringing Up Helly - this is a cute college AU where Helena is Mark's boss, but they sleep together before knowing that. It's been in hiatus for a while now, but I hope the author gets back to it, it's very fun.

my head is not my friend - Helly freaking out after Mark doesn't come back to work post 2x06

besides delaware - a study of Markhelly's lives in the severed floor post the rebellion. It made me cry at work

axis & allies - Professor Scout and TA Helena. So, so fun.

Place to Be - a very sweet and sad post canon Markhelena where they didn't reintegrate

I know it's missing some fandom favourites, but I tried to focus on fics not everyone might have heard about that deserve a shoutout. And I'm probably forgetting some good ones, so not a definitive list in any way, but here are some of the best stuff I read in this fandom.

Y/N’s POV

“You’ve got to be kidding me!” Y/N exclaimed after pushing the end call button on her phone.

“Everything okay there, darlin’,” Beau asked, putting down the spanner he’d been using to fix her kitchen sink and looking over at his upset neighbour.

When he moved in next door, Y/N was the first person to stop by, introducing herself and her four-year-old daughter, Mia, and offering to help him with anything he needed. He quickly took her up on that; having been unable to find the box with his coffee maker and desperate for a fix of the bitter goodness, he knocked on her door and asked her where the nearest coffee shop was.

She’d been even kinder than he’d expected and invited him in, saying she was brewing a fresh pot. She’d even offered to give it to him in a travel mug if he had too much to do across the way.

The only people he’d known in Helena at the time had been his ex-wife, Carla; her newest husband, Avery; and his daughter, Emily. Figuring that making a friend wouldn’t do him any harm, he opted for a ceramic mug and some home-baked cupcakes.

Despite being a garish shade of pink and covered in edible glitter, they were the most delicious cupcakes he’d ever eaten. He’d found it cute that Y/N apologised for their girlish appearance, but he assured her he got it because he had a daughter, too.

They’d been friends ever since, helping each other when they needed an extra pair of hands around the house or garden and keeping an eye on each other during the long, cold Montana nights. He’d tried to keep his feelings in check, but the more he got to know her and the more time he spent in her company, the more he found himself falling for her.

She was sweet, kind, caring, and pretty. She was pure sunshine and warmth and would go out of her way to help anyone who needed it. His changing feelings had taken him by surprise. He thought he’d never willingly put himself through that again after Carla. He never wanted to get his heart broken by a woman ever again.

“So, I told you that my usual babysitter moved away recently, right? And I’ve been struggling to find someone new that I like. The one who was supposed to be here tonight has just cancelled on me, and I won’t be able to find someone else on such short notice, so I’ll need to cancel my shift at the bar,” Y/N explained.

Beau could tell she was close to tears. He knew how much she needed every paycheck she could get from her two part-time jobs.

“Hey, let’s not panic, darlin’, okay? Let me call Emily and see if she can look after Mia for a few hours,” he suggested, smiling slightly at the hope that filled his neighbour’s expression.

“Really? You don’t think she’d mind?” Y/N asked, and he grinned wider.

“No, not at all. Emily loves Mia, and I’m sure she’ll be happy to help. If she’s busy, well, I’m not working tonight, and I could babysit for a few hours,” Beau said, shocked he’d managed to get that last part out. He’d considered offering before but didn’t want her to laugh or dismiss him.

“You’d do that for me?” Y/N asked, clearly taken aback by his kind gesture.

“Sure. That’s what friends are for, right? To help each other out? Step up when the other needs it?” Beau smiled softly.

“Let me go call Emily, okay?” he said as he pulled his phone from his pocket. Y/N had a look of adoration on her face, and he told himself not to get used to it. It was a one-time thing because of his offer to help her find a babysitter.

Stepping into the hallway, Beau scrolled through his recent contacts and hit ‘call’ on his daughter’s number.

“Hey, Dad,” Emily answered after a couple of rings.

“Hey, baby girl. How are you?” he asked, unable to resist the tug at his lips as they lifted into a smile at hearing her voice.

“I’m good. What’s up?”

“Y/N’s in a tight spot and needs a sitter so she can work a shift at the bar. If you don’t have anything on, I thought maybe you could help?”

“All I’ve got on is homework, and I can do it there, so I’d love to help. What time does she need me there?” Emily asked.

“Well, I’m here now fixing her leaking sink, so there’s no need to rush, but her shift starts in an hour,” Beau told his daughter.

“Okay, I’ll head over now. See you soon, Dad.”

“Thanks, kiddo. And hey, how about I order us pizza as a thank you?” 

“You don’t need to do that. I wanna help Y/N,” Emily said.

“I know,” he smiled. At least he and Carla did one thing right, and had raised their daughter to be kind and always willing to help someone in need. “I insist.”

“Well, if you insist!” she chuckled, “I’ll tell Mom where I’m going and be right over.”

“Thanks, Em,” Beau said again before ending the call and walking back into the kitchen. He huffed a quiet laugh at the sight of Y/N pacing the floor and chewing on her thumbnail. It was sad, he thought, that a woman as good as her had been dumped the second she told Mia’s father she was pregnant. Any guy would be lucky to have her, and she was a great mother.

Clearing his throat, he laughed louder as she stopped pacing and looked at him. Her big, beautiful eyes held a silent plea that she could still go out and earn her paycheck and tips.

“Can Emily babysit?” Y/N asked nervously.

“Yeah, she’s on her way,” Beau nodded, smiling as Y/N’s shoulders seemed to fall several inches, and she exhaled a shaky breath.

“Thank you, Beau. I really appreciate it. You’re the best, honestly. I don’t know what I’d do without you. Or Emily.” Y/N looked like she could kiss him, but again, he told himself not to get used to it.

“Hey, there's no need to thank me, darlin’,” he grinned, regardless, because he loved hearing her praise and seeing her look at him as if he hung the moon. “Go and get ready for work, and I’ll finish fixing the sink.”

“Alright, Mia, best behaviour, okay?” Y/N said, kissing the four-year-old’s forehead.

“Yes, Mommy,” Mia said, nodding her head.

“Remember, Emily’s the boss. Whatever she says goes, alright?” Y/N continued.

“I know, Mommy,” Mia rolled her eyes dramatically, making her mom laugh.

“Thanks again, Em. Help yourself to whatever’s in the kitchen. Bedtime is no later than eight, and I’ll be home around eleven, but if you need anything, call me, okay?”

“No problem, Y/N,” Emily chuckled as Mia climbed over the arm of the couch and made herself comfortable on the teenager’s lap. “We’ll have fun, right Mia? Eat pizza and do whatever you want before bed. How does that sound?”

“Fun!” Mia squealed. “Can we watch Frozen while we’re eating pizza?”

“We sure can!” Emily said, sounding just as enthusiastic as the four-year-old.

“Yay! Thanks, Em, you’re the best,” Mia said, wrapping her arms around Emily’s shoulders and hugging her. “Are you watching Frozen with us, Sheriff Beau?”

“How about I eat dinner with you two pretty ladies and then go home, huh? You don’t want a boy crashing your fun, do you?” Beau said, pulling a ‘yuck’ face and making Mia giggle.

“I want you to stay,” Mia said shyly, hiding her head on Emily’s shoulder.

“Well then,” Beau said enthusiastically. “If that’s what Miss Mia wants, then I’ll stay. Besides, I love Frozen.”

“You do?” Mia asked, her eyes going wide with awe.

“Pfft! Who doesn’t? I will have you know that I just happen to be Sven’s biggest fan,” Beau grinned as Mia giggled.

“Who’s your favourite, Em?” Mia asked.

“I like Olaf,” Emily said. “Who doesn’t want a magical snowman as a best friend?”

“My favourite is Elsa because she’s got pretty hair. Mommy’s favourite is Anna because she’s real,” Mia excitedly told the Arlens. “Mommy only says that because she wakes up grumpy and drooling and has messy hair, just like Anna!”

“Oh, thanks for sharing my drooling, messy morning hair with the neighbours, Mia!” Y/N chuckled, leaning down and kissing her daughter’s head one last time. “Bye, sweetie. I’ll see you in the morning, okay?”

“Bye, Mommy. Have fun at work!”

Y/N came home to a quiet house. Mia was in bed, Beau had gone home, and Emily was at the dining table with books spread around her. The kitchen radio was playing quietly in the background, giving just enough sound for there not to be total silence.

“Hey, Em,” she said as she leaned against the door.

“Hey! How was work?” Emily asked, and Y/N was slightly taken aback as the teenager looked like she genuinely wanted an answer. Sarah had been great with Mia, but she wasn’t exactly the chatty type, so when Y/N came home, Sarah took her money and left as soon as possible.

“Busy,” she chuckled. “But it beats being quiet. How was she?” Y/N asked, nodding her head in the direction of Mia’s room.

“She was no trouble. We had dinner, watched Frozen, and Dad played tea party with her for a while,” Emily grinned at Y/N’s shocked face. “I get it! Looking at him, you’d think it’s bizarre that he’d do that, but he’s a great father and used to play with me like that, too.”

“I don’t doubt it. Your dad raised a fine young woman,” Y/N smiled. “It’s just hard to picture him pretending to sip from a tiny pink plastic cup!” The women shared a laugh before hearing a quiet knock at the door.

“That’ll be my dad. He said he’d give me a ride home,” Emily said as she started to pack up her books, and Y/N went to the door.

“Hey, Sheriff,” Y/N said as she opened the door and let him in.

“Hey, how was your shift?” he spoke quietly, obviously not wanting to wake Mia.

“It was busy. I’m looking forward to making a cup of tea and putting my feet up!”

Walking back into the kitchen, Y/N pulled an envelope from her purse and handed it to Emily, who frowned.

“Money for tonight,” Y/N confirmed. “I can’t thank you enough, Em.”

“You don’t have to. I didn’t do it for the money,” Emily replied, trying to hand it back.

“I insist, please,” Y/N said, and Emily nodded reluctantly.

“Thank you,” Emily smiled. “If you ever need a sitter, I’m happy to help, Y/N, anytime.”

“I’ve been offered more hours at the bar, so I might take you up on that,” Y/N smiled. “But, I’ll talk to you about that another time. It’s late, and you have school in the morning. And thanks, Beau. You didn’t need to stay, but I bet it made Mia’s night that you did.”

“No need for thanks, darlin’. Don’t think I could ever say no to that little face,” Beau winked.

“Still, you didn’t need to. If you’re not working on Sunday, please come over for dinner. I’m making roast chicken with all the trimmings, and I wanna say thank you for mowing the lawn the other week and fixing the sink. And for Mia,” she said, suddenly feeling very nervous.

“Well, that is a very kind offer that I can’t pass up. Thank you; I’ll be there.”  Beau nodded, touched that she’d go to such trouble for him.

“Alright, great,” Y/N smiled. “I won’t keep you any longer. Thank you both again.”

“Anytime,” Emily said. “Call me if you want to take those extra hours, okay? I liked concentrating on homework and studying without Mom’s constant interruptions!”

“I will. Goodnight, Em,” Y/N smiled gratefully.

“If I don’t see you before, I’ll see you on Sunday,” Beau said, turning on her porch and waiting expectantly.

“Are you really going to stand there until I lock my door when you’re right there, and nothing is going to happen?” Y/N grinned.

“You’re damn right, I am! You can never be too careful,” Beau smirked, standing firm on her porch and crossing his arms. “Goodnight, Y/N.”

“Goodnight, Sheriff,” Y/N grinned, closing her door and locking it, leaving the porch light on until Emily and Beau were driving away in the car.

Walking down the hallway, she checked in on Mia, smiling fondly when she saw her little girl sound asleep and clutching her Elsa doll like a lifeline. Bending down, she kissed Mia’s forehead and closed the door over just the right amount, making sure a sliver of light would be visible if she woke in the night.

Heading back into the kitchen, Y/N switched on the kettle, pulled an oversized mug from the cupboard, and made some chamomile tea to help her sleep. Working this late was always tricky because it took a while for the day's adrenaline to wear off before she could fall asleep.

She took the mug of steaming tea into her bedroom, placed it on the bedside table, changed out of her work clothes, threw them in the laundry basket, and put on sweatpants and an oversized T-shirt.

Climbing into bed, she picked up the book on her nightstand and settled in to read a few chapters while drinking her tea.

She was only a few pages in when she heard Beau’s truck pull into the driveway next door. A soft smile tugged at her lips as she thought about Beau and how he was one of those rare Southern gentlemen she’d read about in many a romance novel. She’d never met anyone like him, and she found his chivalry extremely attractive and endearing.

Beau had been through a lot of tragedy, and although she didn’t know the whole story, she knew the consequences of his trauma had ended his marriage to Carla. She didn’t understand why Carla left him when he was at his most vulnerable. She was his wife; she must have known how much he was hurting and that all he needed was a little time, patience, and a whole lot of TLC.

She listened intently, waiting for his door to open and close and for the sound of the locks turning, chuckling to herself that she was just as bad as he was by making sure he was home safe and sound.

Being able to call Beau a friend had been a blessing Y/N hadn’t known she needed. She thanked God every day she’d worked the late shift that night. Getting home at 4 AM and being woken three hours later by Mia meant that she put on an extra pot of coffee that afternoon.

Truth be told, she’d been lonely and in need of a friend. All her friends were in relationships, and being the only mother— a single one at that—meant spending days trying to find a babysitter just to spend a few hours being a third wheel wasn't very high on her priority list.

And besides, she worked two jobs to make ends meet, and she’d much rather spend what precious free time she had with her adorable four-year-old daughter.

TRANSCRIPT

Yakov: Hurry, thrall, before my cup runs dry. Thrall: Yes, master.

Yakov: And didn't I tell you to bring some bottles for the table? Thrall: Of course, sir.

Nadia: A thrall who doesn't listen? [ chuckles ] Reminds me of someone.

Helena: Y'all are too harsh on 'em. Nadia: You are too lenient, darling.

Helena: You keep on breaking their bodies, pretty soon you won't have anyone left. Yakov: No matter. If its body breaks, I'll find a new body.

Yakov: Stop skulking. Come here. Breanna: ... Yakov: I'm speaking to you, girl. Breanna: Huh? Who? Me?

Yakov: I've never seen you before. Breanna: I'm... new. Yakov: Who are you? Breanna: Uh, Breanna. And you are? Yakov: I'm the one asking questions. Breanna: Well that's rude.

Helena: Don't be nasty. At least she got the memo to wear white. [ giggling ] His name is Yakov, and I'm Helena. We belong to headmaster Nadia's coven. Breanna, is it?

Yakov: Do not speak to the fledgling like we are equals. Nadia: Calm yourself. I know this one.

Nadia: You're Vladislaus's new spawn. I can tell. Breanna: You know Vlad? Nadia: [ giggles ] I must admit, you're exactly as I imagined you'd be. Breanna: What's that supposed to mean? Nadia: Oh, nothing.

Yakov: Ah, I see. So you are the pet's pet. Truthfully, I don't care who you are.

Yakov: You aren't welcome here. Leave, now—

Yakov: Ah... but you are such a cute little thing, aren't you?

Breanna: Huh? Yakov: Hurry, thrall. Bring the girl a bottle.

Yakov: Pretty girls deserve to drink only the finest wine. Isn't that right? Breanna: Shit, I won't argue with that. So what are we celebrating anyways?

Yakov: Go on, tell her your good news. Helena: ...I'm leading a hunt soon— Yakov: Soon, she will be the one who leads the hunt! Is it not delightful?

Breanna: Hell yeah man, that's delightful as fuck. Yakov: Please, you must join us. Nadia: An astute idea, Yakov. I agree. I'm eager to see how you fare.

Nadia: Perhaps you can teach Helena a thing or two.

Vladislaus: You are drunk if you believe I would allow such a thing.

Vladislaus: She has no business leaving the Hollow. Breanna: But I wanna go with them.

Vladislaus: It seems my mentor has corrupted your poor mind already. How unfortunate.

Nadia: You are so surly, my darling. Won't you join us for a drink? Vladislaus: No, we should leave. There is still much training to do. Nadia: You will attend the gala, won't you?

Vladislaus: If I must. Nadia: Good. You have no choice. Why don't you bring your little spawnling with you? Vladislaus: ...That is a great idea, headmaster.

Breanna: You know, you could ask first. Vladislaus: Come, Breanna. Let us be on our way. Breanna: [ sighs ] You really don't listen, huh?

Breanna: Bye y'all, I had a lot of fun!

Breanna: Thanks for the free wine! 💖

Yakov: [ groaning ] Ugh—that little bitch was in my head! Helena: Should we go after her?

Nadia: No. Leave her. I question if she even realizes what she's done.
