Maybe in another life :)

AU in which Eclipse still isn't the heir, that's never gonna be a possibility ever, but her mother realizes she can still politik her marriage regardless. Makes this crazy play at Noir, from the other hugely influential family on the planet(whose family does not engage in politicking in this particular way at all.) But Noir is like, why not! Wife acquired! And then they kill her mom or something idk–

#i dont think this would fix them by any means #but it would be a fascinating way in which eclipse gets out from her family's thumb #in a way more peaceful controlled way than the actual plot of my au #theres just something to me about all the big traumatic events of their shared relationship not happening #not that theres no trauma. eclipse has a lot. a lot. of trauma #but there never being all the shared trauma between her and noir particularly #on one hand they wouldn't have the same connection. but on the other. blank slate!#its just always fascinating to me to think about Noir meeting the more unscathed docile Eclipse #<- not that thats a good thing or a good form of her #but rather in the main plot she only meets her at the worst moment of her life and never knows what she was like without that #but both plots would be noir encouraging her to break out of that persona :)#ANYWAYS. THIS DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE TO ANYONE BUT ME. but i really wanna oc post more so!#also dying at the idea of Noir whos just like. get married? why not lol #her parents are like. but Noir we dont want to use you. thats icky! we dont do that!#noir meanwhile: free wife :)#she also meets eclipse and instantly forms a savior complex just like the normal au so that as well #shes open to anything and she thinks this is gonna be a weird but fun moment #but then actually meets eclipse and is like okay we're getting you out of this situation stat.#im really not sure what eclipse would be in this au. i guess similar but doesnt have to be coaxed into domesticity #more that she needs to learn what its like to be independent #rather than be forced to go from pure dependence to pure independence to a balancing act #interesting to think what would happen to people when they dont have these major flashpoints in their life anymore #catie.rambling.txt #eclipoir #noir #eclipse #catie.art.
