Y’all know that cut scene in AMOD where Emma, Millard, Enoch, and Horace go to school with Jacob under fake names (except Millard)
Enoch and Horace are never seen during that scene. Only mentioned. Enoch is also canonically 12-13, and Horace is at least heavily implied to be the same age
Are you telling me Enoch O’Connor and Horace Somnusson were sent to a public middle school unsupervised
#horace would DIE oh my god#horace would die and enoch would laugh at him#jacob gets home like ‘how the hell did you two get suspended from seventh grade after one day’#enoch’s like ‘someone picked on horace for his clothes so i punched him’#horace is having a silent mental breakdown#i need to see that oh my god#mphfpc#enoch o'connor#horace somnusson

Ephemeral
As ever, spring arrives in fits and starts. On a sunny day, there seems to be no stopping it: the deep green lawns and fields are bordered with purple, yellow, white, and red. The next day, a cold wind settles in. Up in the grey sky, the branches -- budding, but still empty of leaves -- click and clatter, and the thick limbs groan. A lone goose passes overhead, calling. Where has its flock gone? Out on a wide meadow, a group of crows stand in a circle, quarreling.
Yet, as I noted in my previous post, a threshold has been crossed: the cherry trees have begun to blossom. You may recall, dear readers, that I am wont to visit A. E. Housman at cherry blossom time. To wit: "Loveliest of trees, the cherry now/Is hung with bloom along the bough . . ." But I have been reading Horace's odes recently, so this year a translation by Housman of one of the odes will take the place of my old standby.
Diffugere Nives
The snows are fled away, leaves on the shaws
And grasses in the mead renew their birth,
The river to the river-bed withdraws,
And altered is the fashion of the earth.
The Nymphs and Graces three put off their fear
And unapparelled in the woodland play.
The swift hour and the brief prime of the year
Say to the soul, Thou wast not born for aye.
Thaw follows frost; hard on the heel of spring
Treads summer sure to die, for hard on hers
Comes autumn, with his apples scattering;
Then back to wintertide, when nothing stirs.
But oh, whate'er the sky-led seasons mar,
Moon upon moon rebuilds it with her beams:
Come we where Tullus and where Ancus are,
And good Aeneas, we are dust and dreams.
Torquatus, if the gods in heaven shall add
The morrow to the day, what tongue has told?
Feast then thy heart, for what thy heart has had
The fingers of no heir will ever hold.
When thou descendest once the shades among,
The stern assize and equal judgment o'er,
Not thy long lineage nor thy golden tongue,
No, nor thy righteousness, shall friend thee more.
Night holds Hippolytus the pure of stain,
Diana steads him nothing, he must stay;
And Theseus leaves Pirithoüs in the chain
The love of comrades cannot take away.
A. E. Housman, in Archie Burnett (editor), The Poems of A. E. Housman (Oxford University Press 1997). This is the seventh ode of Book IV of the Odes. "Diffugere nives" are the opening words of Horace's Latin text, and may be translated as "the snow disperses" or "the snow melts."
One can understand why this poem appealed to Housman. There is a lovely anecdote about Housman and the poem. The anecdote has appeared here before, but it is worth revisiting.
"During my time at Cambridge, I attended [Housman's] lectures for two years. At five minutes past 11 he used to walk to the desk, open his manuscript, and begin to read. At the end of the hour he folded his papers and left the room. He never looked either at us or at the row of dons in the front. One morning in May, 1914, when the trees in Cambridge were covered with blossom, he reached in his lecture Ode 7 in Horace's Fourth Book, 'Diffugere nives, redeunt iam gramina campis.' This ode he dissected with the usual display of brilliance, wit, and sarcasm.
"Then for the first time in two years he looked up at us, and in quite a different voice said: 'I should like to spend the last few minutes considering this ode simply as poetry.' Our previous experience of Professor Housman would have made us sure that he would regard such a proceeding as beneath contempt. He read the ode aloud with deep emotion, first in Latin and then in an English translation of his own. 'That,' he said hurriedly, almost like a man betraying a secret, 'I regard as the most beautiful poem in ancient literature,' and walked quickly out of the room.
"A scholar of Trinity (since killed in the War), who walked with me to our next lecture, expressed in undergraduate style our feeling that we had seen something not really meant for us. 'I felt quite uncomfortable,' he said. 'I was afraid the old fellow was going to cry.'"
Mrs. T. W. Pym, Letter to The Times (May 5, 1936), in Richard Gaskin, Horace and Housman (Palgrave Macmillan 2013), page 12.
Gilbert Spencer (1892-1979), "From My Studio" (1959)
The snow has vanished and the cherry blossoms (soon to flutter down in a drift of petals, alas!) have arrived. But this is never the end of "change and chancefulness" (Thomas Hardy, "The Temporary the All"), is it? How could it be otherwise? Why would we expect it to be otherwise? (With the exception, in my case, of wishing to spend Eternity lying in the grass on a never-ending late summer or early autumn afternoon, looking up into the green-leaved, sun-and-shadow-mottled, wind-swaying boughs of a tree.)
Marcus Aurelius has wise words for us: "How ridiculous, and like a stranger is he, who is surprised at any thing which happens in life!" (Marcus Aurelius (translated by Francis Hutcheson and James Moor), Meditations, Book XII, Section 13.) Spring is here. But not for long. Anything is possible.
Kinsale
The kind of rain we knew is a thing of the past --
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say,
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.
Derek Mahon, Collected Poems (The Gallery Press 1999).
Derwent Lees (1885-1931), "Aldbourne" (1915)
Recently, the robins have changed their tune. The flat, matter-of-fact chirping of the short winter days has been replaced by song. From all directions, from out of the fields and the bushes and the trees, come the voices of the unseen singers. The music continues into the night.
Flowers and Moonlight on the Spring River
The evening river is level and motionless --
The spring colours just open to their full.
Suddenly a wave carries the moon away
And the tidal water comes with its freight of stars.
Yang-ti (Seventh Century A.D.) (translated by Arthur Waley), in Arthur Waley, One Hundred and Seventy Chinese Poems (Constable 1918), page 92.
Trevor Makinson, "Maryhill Goods Yard"

Untitled (“The way, ‘Tis dark:’)”
A ballad sequence
1
When we meet at all things of delights aid me alone? The sparry hollow, the shepherd clans: that feele I on my
ribbes al by rewe, and see if we lingering stems the upbursting columns, or fantastic round he the fearful dell.
Nor lies beyond us. My stockings thrown about Arcadian forest fires. Of Phasipha, that I have a ditty
not of the fruites, now her prayer now wide awake, the Chinese say, is this arte. And if that gladly, nyght and
said … Nay, we are all children, hush’d carpets rose along the sharp enough; here will rue it: for thou art a diuell, thoughts of
Cupids! If you open a person to chickadees and mad, when the curtain’d canopies, spangled, and from Olympus’
solemn though it be self-kill’d. Hundred yen to be rock and trace, which are but sweeter that inspire love-drynke that makes
no show, is to a woman who knelt, with a staf birafte his wyf go roule aboute myn herte may be done, you must
have said! I seyde, A womman never imagined a white- hair’d shadows bathe me, and quickly on the green, and die; revive,
or doon hem reverence veiled— my crystal. And yet against me proued. And so true as may God omnipotent, though
metamorphos’d quite, for I shal seye sooth, by Seint John! This orient, and pendant pearl of our brows that thy complete
and woo thee more, but for it came like Horace and that is wys. The mountains: ’twas a cooler light forbere hym in a
though neuer thy flocke of telling, Oh. They beareth thee from their sweet virgin’s bower. If thou wishest, said so wel after
my land thus algates hous? And such skill in heavens, nor could like to watery gauze; yea, or my offended
maydenhede preferrė bigamye: hem like to grieve. The way, Tis dark: the iced gusts still ride on, we two should I descry such?
2
Seems seeing, but must I remain. In two cupped hand did you growes Melampode euery where, and gold, as me was
Alisoun. From oother city speed; a cruel man and poesy., Writ over the Sea; listen! And if that makes you probably
annoyed I probably still brooding o’er earth closer than maiden Maud in all, she saw not: her head. If I were dimpling,
as if to the winds and wondering like a wild rose tree pavilions hale the sluggish wheels; solemn their own poor
dream delicious wine doth, sparkling way the gray linen slacks, all the dark tree glimmers thy crescent? For thee, so my
soul doth ache. All my love, and towards your kindest Alpheus! Fair maid, be pitiful to my nece also. Not for ever,
are all this just the window-flowers fresh slumber through the dull angry lightning, and dim emblazonings, and suffocate
true friend and garland round he the cause thee, too divine; convolvulus in strives by weakening threshold, day by
day hast been a little word; that oother wad bear all wrong. Which Loue hie set down her sight of the sky is a signe of
her sooth, than within our Love. Our heart to giue my tongue would have hopes. We fille acorded by these arms? High with his
felawe. Long preambulacioun? Leaps in the bars that thou had’st pity. Henceforth what othere thou wouldst thus, for a trewe wyf,
do as the soul when hot for ever love lookes many on, and the wound, which makes earth gone nearer out of history!
3
He cannot rue the sluggish wheels. Hark! Brood down some other parting sound—he stept, there was near at all time when mad
Eurydice is more, the shell covered my libertie? Without an echo? Once spirit to tell in what evere moote I drynken
wyn or ale, I shal nat lette, which, whil that worth did in tract of time proceed, wraceks triumphs gay He found, this is
al ydo. Smell Murphy’s Oil Soap, dog kibble. To chickadees and in hue could you offer to other regions, past
they grew; nor did I chide: sweet paining of their surly sullen bands his limbs are loos’d, and scarce could not end me, left me
for his deathbell rung; at glaring water. His brayne, so not eares, sighs, indeed, when his wyf go roule about
Pomona: here is sunlight and skill, I do leaue following.- Deep with fears, and more, than is or ever ride? Will know just
what, that worth a leek that hath set us young Porphyro grew faint: and loving lie in one spot alone with eloquence
itself. All but his should sublime than within the first white or flax; an equal light was quit, by Goddes half, where
drowned thing. Beguile her maiden-flowers,— sighing, while th’ effects, to pant through the past echoing from the punch. Those
eyes maken men to flee out of his white deliciousnesse, and now approaching Wisdom or wealth of love be sweet dreame.
4
As she mutter’d, through buried day. Would find, than before may I dare to board me for others in heart, I read. Musk lay
then a Grain of Musicke, sweetness this. Her through our straw soles shred on the lot. Such teares, sighs, indeed end abrupt, in
middle, ther were never he said and, while both diffuse, and learned well. After thou which he did not rave, he did lean
over a bower, the only tutor us to our former love like Horace and flutter’d loving heard not only
that he well night a fals suspecioun. I sit beneath, and if wee must, let’s proverbe of a song? He follow teeth.
5
“Now, by my trouthe, I quite shrinking. More pleasant grass and to the deep; my grotto, vaulted, vast, o’er craggy mountain smoking
with yvel preef! Him great woe. All billowy-bosom’d, over-bow’d by many benedictions— sun’s and mock you
with my life decay, the burr of smothering on her to a dive! To make a dent for yúsuf— she begat: the
unnameable for to se, and of S. Voice, he had touch another. And Helowys, that leades in lingring payne.
6
Her throat in vain; and that coy girl who smiles of thyng—of hire horrible lust was oure shap, and salt—sweet Beauties skies, innumerable. And, lordynges, by hard but it did, with Etnean throe the eagle landed with lazy wrists, and lik’d;
I lik’d but loued not; I lou’d, but lov’d Ida the dizzy head. Would mark her end! Now stand a white-hair’d shadows bathe me, and the Frere lough all the earth, be true? Round flowers; but for that came many I knew what I speken of men moore harm
than her lips’ red; if snow be white, had stol’n to thy chariot; dark foldings there in the western skies, of which that they were bounds! To take a feeste on the leaues doth dress in all his way, and no more, and shook his hide, leave me. To save from a
censer old, save wings, ere he shal, for she thing an hour’s space, and of Venus from out my heart, her slave, and the small, jewel- like flowers: but the ceiling’s heighten’d in his in; and if that she coveiteth every hour gave to St. Thought, all naked,

shorte thy white palace, like phantoms, into is, was, and nothing rings—o let thee clime the amazement, the world rush’d: then what please the least my lips again he caught the golden dishes and hushed than her as he was eight yellow broom. ’ In
sort of wakeful bloodhound rose, the corps lay in fold. Whose senses in so euill as which he smooth dark wave slides overgone, and fell beat to the splashing foil for such great freend, withouten purveiance of mariage! Another where, and in hue
could you offer to others, even as thou art a girl as muchel care and Art: I court others in them to your eyes, ears, thou hadst a pain like to follow you up the wo, Ful giltelees, by the Sacrifice? On the bath for no
bobance—yet was the last words, nor casts his mercy then the curtains peep’d, where sameness breeds vexing Mars had taught much toil, ’twould seem a feathers of its minstrelsy, and do accept my spirit fails to think of it; from faery land, who keepe

Smell Murphy’s Oil Soap, dog kibble. And ioy therein, yet are snug to the closet crept, Never on such be Rome and they
good too so you don’t have lover may nat kepe me chaast in al. Whan that man shal nat suffre hym in no cas. Yet witches

shell fish to God there is no more in hand or save, i’m sure sheepe to thine arms; contents, there was, pensive awhile, I’ve mickle.
At rest, ended for our low world, a white with graves, and pendant pearl of oure disposed to see pearles Ruby-hidden,
like springs; my level gleam a poet sublimer than her light, and leany knaues, they reigne and shadow fell upon
him; so, bent low, he had been al pacience is gone; and his lonely Hell. And beauty morn by morn; I earth tis his
owne children of their souls. Year old who renne out my help lies where quince, and from rain, and for that oon thou shall I repine?
8
Nor the last ride with gold, ooz’d slowly playne ouerture? Alas, ’twas like a thousand pearls her dell. Though old Ulysses tortured lions him into seamless air. Teach thine? To thee more,
and yet against a reef-they dwell in praying honey on her handsome gentlest boon! Of his mount who do swerue, rebell by law of volcanoes, making a carcanet of
maiden-flowers! Fish downe let flye: shee weend thee. Or with a wayward though buried magic, till we rename her, close of my hate.-And left the young woman have had force along with
the wealth or pleye unto hevene. Else call it was a hum of sudden thee? The blue-bell and Ceiling blank amazement, that I then he turn’d him to pass; it seem’d he flew, the while.
9
That in the Rose-leaf of her cottage girl—she was synne! Which Venus falleth thee to something good angels her deceive!
Died palsy-twitch’d, with meagre, barefoot, wan, a cruel immortal in themselves this as of othere manere love’s standard on
the lily, the bounds of wit giuing wounds for ever old yet new, changed not out the great bliss for you, to enter it as
eas’ly thence the sixtė, whan he had it any been but she can’t a woman but a shade, and all I dare to sea. The
bren, as I best kan, now more to tell, blest, but ther been thynges thre, they soone myghte she has left deserve, that called metal,
a lethal musket shot, a caravel staving in its tranquility; the general gladness: awfully haven’d
both together, breathe thee why so mute? Your voice, with dear Love’s far dwelling through winding course, from silken, hush’d carpets rose
along the bumpers a thought a fals suspecioun. Along the sweet queen: when lo! One hand that’s hope hope hope hope hope hope
hope hope hope hope hope his soul Eolian tun’d for that ground her and yes I shal seyn. One after hoof he raised be halfe so
deare, and grew a seething more that tender scions for very idleness? Is here, if thou wast late a huntress free in—
At this lineage: not one breast; i, sick withal, the hum celestial kiss, an immortality of earth, be true?
10
; The same reason good, would like the faint repeats the shells welcome thy forehead, and my body and of Lucye: they bene
to hear it I probably still ride on, we two should see to spring, while Ilion like phantoms, into the leave to thee.
Lo, quod she, but evere love, mere love-drynke that mine eyes were born. Until it reach: and continence eek, with his eternally
and numb his bosom of a hated things of talk from their tunes, whence wit still on me, O eyes, dart down your heart,

encamps to take way longer tarry dare, seeing Hope yeeld when ’tis his tombe noght so a werkė, by my trouthe, I quite well?
11
I thoughts, as eas’ly thence there men corrected be. Do love the hill, the simplicitie breathe thee in prose: and thanne saugh ye ever in a wide open shone: upon his beauty, for
all. Where sameness breeds love; and all old hymns made no stays, had it any been but she’s mine will I see there livest blissfully he stars that they send: for each year that high ioyes I

That left him once again in twilight now shine on, and will stay; true love, lovelorn, lay sorrow, than ever-fixed mark
that hir owene grece I made he, of bigamye: hem liketh every tear was born of diverse stoundes; bacyns, lavours,
er that will, I do leaue follow’d through they hurried in the deadly feel of solitude. Eyes were swich cheek, and flows, as
your shelf, so I probably took you years ago. On those twilight eyes? Of love and me a breast they probably shoulder, but
darkens, and glosen up and do not leave me. Streams to the Samaritan: thou hast thou art well seru’d that als we
mought be, simple, as simplesse me destroy the beautiful and soon among He turn’d, and joly as a painful change

Prithee why so mute? Stella sweet it is ere wit we get away from thee. My kiss out-went these cruell thee: who tempt, and feeble soul? A lord it, as their tongue even to thy growth moste bowen, doutelees, by God and by the Orphean lute, whence did, and faire that I write, and continuous murmuring surge. The silver cross soft and shapen as a man, and fish

The broad golden dishes and dyes: a scowl is somewhere before the tambour frame as since despitus. Of Heaven! Saying, she hobbled off with eloquence here might seem unholy, be of happy stars, and for ese

Since therewith thee why so pale as smooth dark world should swell her throat in vain, and felt the pleasures grieve from his threaten; ah, my sute granted wassailled upon his thigh lay dormant, mov’d convuls’d and flowers, peacocks, swans, and the

The blue slips on this day it dooth a woodland dun, through the west, like Vulcan’s rainbow, with upward could not stare aghast, for wel ye knowe the flaw-blown rose, a cloth of woven crimson mouthed shells welcome thy feet and any way to vary from there’s too swift. Vein of gold hath prively unto

For the washbasin of my heart by heart, the answer, Maud my blisse in the Ruby Seal that called is Seint Jame, thou shalt forgo, maugree thyne yen. What does it indeed, indeed: the cargo and the wrought all were sleeping youth of fondest beautiful to my norice honour, and I by this

She kissed me away, come see my grave among the frozen grass, a purer sapphire heaven seem best? My most faire necke you threaten what pleasing sobs began
to ride. Are you—poor, sick, old ere your bed and worshipp’st at their dams—how blest were no seed y-sowe, virginitee? In years? In the grass such band, as are all her glory also, and riche, and shouldst garded be, and for vexing congenital perhaps. Is dark, dark cedar, tho’ even now a table, and, you away, as if, athirst with thee to go; but

While the spring, or the salt herb, in the cheefe: theeues steal thy sweet life beyond the core all otheres exaltat, and priketh his hous and enlivening; making their pride, that Miracles Mens faith is meant for youre talė, spareth for to se, and that very

But yet I hope hope to win her with thy disparted, and nearer to the constant blind over his nested young:
but all claim, and griesly gapes, blackening pace my horse moved on; hoof after wol we crie al day and crave.—The charm is she’s for mouths never sounding for their pinions fair. What time— so just lie under the maw of a wide outlet, fathom, or contracted, lyrical, while their little space I go: and yet, by heave thee, to brooded o’er and that dreadful bow.
21
Varied hues and hushed the smiles of thyng—of hire housbonde I wolde I seye my tale. Her stiffness by the mooste shrewe! I probably took you years ago. And when heav’d anew old ocean be which borrow’d from cedar-plank or weed: and yet was thine: ere longest breath about her sight officiously; so wound through unknown things around, man comes these shell fish to cause theef?
22
As your arms are smoothest mossy bed and true in sacred customers. They nevere agilte hir lecchour, lat thy japes

straining too hard to remembrance to an harpe smale, and liuing dying. Dame, I wept to the wise astrologien, Daun
Ptholome, that, near and nigh, all human; bearing here to fade and given him over, from departing, like Vulcan’s rainbow,

23
Who tempt, and couch of space between an infant’s gums: and he withdrawe my charming and fled. Of her dream I must spell his

It is an hard thyng — of hire dette? Loves the Westerne coste? That seith this presence and both in every eve saw me my hair

Only word I undertake. An unseiz’d heavenly guide; that our delight, and Thou Shalt Not, writ over the flame that

31
The lily I condemn me to spyen? No uttered words spoken light of varied hues and his biding, there to knowe a lord it, as the passage, searching their sweet, sweet flowers in

with desire wing’d with wonder if April dress’d from Sol’s temperate Lover can die! Again, and blood, and scarce any retrospection in herte for to see me once is gone.
Though striding is awake, for that same Adonis’ shoulder, nor, up-pil’d, the sheets rise gentle to plague thyself to the leon, tel me who? A married as soon among Northward

32
Up here and thy breath, bleed away in another gloomy rest? And hopest her store; and overhead a vaulted dome
liketh to be accounted inside clean any more, sweet maid, how the seagull diving toward another thing to sigh

AH I FORGOT ABOUT THAT FUCKER 👿
Oh my god Indiana we’re practically cousins I’m from Kentucky!! (I almost said that makes us kin but I don’t need to put myself as any more Appalachian lmaooo) which explains the spirituality and superstitions we believe in. My grandma and her sisters were VERY into it, like would talk about how people die in threes every time there was a death, and then all 3 sisters died at the same time 👀
Anyway sorry to derail the post but what I’m saying is Horace has Appalachian superstitions!!! He must open AND close the a blade, NO whistling at night, ALL blinds closed, and you don’t call back when you hear your name in the wind
Horace Altman gives me those vibes of someone who always offers up their pocket knife/belt knife whenever the opportunity presents itself. Like it could be the one of those bread twisty things and he’ll hold out his knife for Will like a giddy school girl handing her crush a candy or sommet,

Prisoner
Agnes/Estinien. Beauty and the Beast AU. Corrai Currai, Agi’s father, has gone missing near the border of the Black Shroud and Coerthas. She takes her trusty chocobo Horace up north and finds a frozen, desolate land...and a castle... SFW
There once was a prince who lived in a castle in the mountains to the north. He was beautiful but cruel and vain. One night, an old beggar woman arrived at his castle asking for food and shelter. He turned her away, announcing to his court that “no hags shall ever darken our halls.”
The old beggar woman was, in fact, a witch, who showed the prince her true nature. She told him that he needed to learn a lesson---to value the lives around him and not be so shallow. She then cursed the prince and all who served him.
“You have until the Eye of Nidhogg, a great wyrm who was consumed by hatred, has faded to learn how to love. To break the curse, you must find true love. Find the one for whom your heart sings. Without her, you and yours will be cursed for the end of time.” For how long the eye would remain glowing they did not know…and nor the prince care. His life as he knew it was over. The lands he ruled over were now under eternal winter.
His days and nights were spent watching the Eye slowly fade...
***
Agnes Currai was worried.
Her Da had left with Horace and the cart to bring dried fish up to the markets in Fallgourd Float in the North Shroud five days ago.
He should’ve returned by now. He’s always back within a few days.
Since her Mum died a few years ago, Agnes stopped being an adventurer and traveling healer to stay in Costa del Sol with her Da and help around the cottage. She was currently pacing around said cottage waiting to hear from an old adventuring comrade in the North Shroud to hear if her father had been spotted.
“Hello kupo! Note for Agnes Currai! Urgent kupo!” A delivery moogle shouted as it flew right into the front door. “OUCH!”
Oh no! Agnes grabbed her staff and opened the door to find the moogle on the ground. “Here you are, kupo.” She healed the moogle and picked it up. “I’m so sorry about the door.”
The moogle adjusted its cap and shook its head. “No kupo! I’m a bit of a klutz! Urgent note for Agnes Currai!”
Agnes took the note and read it.
Agi,
Sorry to say there’s no sign of your Da, but there was a cart (with a broken wheel) found on the road to Coerthas and a lone chocobo that returned here just today matching Horace’s description. He’s very agitated, so maybe come up and see if it’s him.
If there’s ought I can do to help further, please let me know.
Sanson Smyth
Trying to remain composed, Agnes folded the note and put it in her apron pocket. “Thank you so much. Here’s some gil for your trouble, my little friend.” She tried to hand over gil to the delivery moogle, who squealed.
“No, no kupo! Have a good day!” The moogle flew off to its destination, leaving Agnes even more worried than before.
I’ll teleport to Fallgourd Float, speak to Sanson in person, and then…I’ll find Da. I must.
***
Within the hour, Agnes arrived in the North Shroud with her staff, a small bag with emergency items, and a spare whistle for Horace. As soon as she looked around the aetheryte, she spotted a familiar Midlander hyur.
“Sanson!”
The shorter man turned and smiled. “Agi! I’m so sorry this meeting is not under happier circumstances. Come, follow me and I’ll show you the chocobo.”
Agnes’s instincts were correct in that chocobo in question was Horace (thank the gods). After giving him some pets and a few treats, she prepared to ride off towards Coerthas.
“Agi, no one has crossed the border in years. There’s stories of a beastly dragon in the mountains—”
Agnes waved a hand dismissively at Sanson. “My Da is out there. Maybe he’s hurt or sick. I’m not leaving him to die. I was an adventurer once upon a time, Sanson.” She said with a wink as she mounted Horace. “Horace, let’s go find Da. Take me to where you saw him last.”
Horace and his mistress rode north, while Sanson sighed.
“I do hope you know what you’re getting into, Agi. Nophica, pray keep my friend under your protection.”
***
“Fucking hells, it’s cold.” Agnes muttered as she and Horace continued to ride. “It…I’ve heard Coerthas is cold but not this cold.”
Horace let out a “kweh” and stopped. “Kweh! Kweh!”
Agnes dismounted and looked around. This is approximately in the middle of fucking nowhere in a cold forest. “Was this where you last saw Da, Horace?”
“Kweh!”
There’s a path leading to…somewhere. Wait a second—
Having seen a piece of torn cloth, Agnes realized immediately what it was. “It’s part of Da’s coat!” She held the piece of cloth to Horace’s beek. “Any ideas where he might’ve gone?”
“Kweh!” Horace took a few steps along the worn path.
“Hmmm, maybe Da got hurt and was looking for help? But why not head back to Fallgourd Float? Unless…” Unless he got lost. Oh no. “Alright Horace, let’s follow the path.”
Before long, Agnes and Horace arrived at a castle. The creepiest looking castle I’ve ever seen. It’s almost got black scales over the stone? Very creepy. And are those roses? What a massive garden. But where’s the…front door? Do castles have front doors? Where does one go and knock? “Horace, I see a stable, so why not wait in there for me? Maybe take a nap? I’ll leave some food with you.”
Horace kweh’d sadly as he and Agnes walked to the stable. “See, it’s very nice. I’ll be back in a bit.”
“Kweh!”
She trudged in the snow to what appeared to be the main door of the castle. Do I knock? And what the fuck do I even say? “Hello, is my Da in here?” Agnes knocked three times with no answer, so then she opened the door. Unlocked…very strange. As she stepped inside, the scent of dust filled her nose. It’s dark. I wonder if there’s a candle or a light or literally anything that’s not super creepy. “Da? Da?”
To her utter surprise, a voice shouted. “AGI! Agi, I’m down here!”
DA?! Staff now at the ready, Agnes tried to follow the voice of her father, noticing a stairwell off to the side. This way? She hurried as fast as she could and saw a sort of cell.
“AGI! Thank the gods, I knew you’d come lookin’ fer me!” Corrai Currai yelled as Agnes used magic to break the lock. “I knew—”
“Da, we have to get out of here. Horace is outside. You can ride him, and I’ll follow. Let’s go!” We can reminisce later!!! COME ON!
Just as Agnes turned, she bumped into something. Having looked up, she saw an upright dragon. FUCKING HELLS! Without a second thought, she readied her staff to cast Holy, but the dragon reached with its massive claw and snapped her staff like a dry twig. FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! “That was an expensive staff, asshole!”
The dragon roared.
Fuck. This is really bad.
“Who comes to free my prisoner?” The dragon asked, staring at Agnes. “He stole from me. His punishment is imprisonment for life.” He’s got a bit of a lisp and a very deep voice. Sexy voice to be honest...NO.
“Ser, I only wanted to pick a flower fer my daughter. This is her.” Corrai explained. “She’s an adventurer, my Agi is. Agi, I’m sorry…”
Agnes pat her father’s head. “Oh Da, it’s okay.” She then turned to the dragon. “And you! Imprisoning a man for picking a flower is monstrous! Who do you think you are?”
The dragon bared its very very very large fangs. “I am lord of this castle, and my word is law. Leave woman, lest you be imprisoned with your father!”
Fuck that shit. “I offer myself in my father’s place.” She reached for Corrai’s hand and squeezed. “Da, I’ll be okay.”
“No! Agi, no! You’ve got yer whole life ahead of you!” Corrai pleaded. “Please. I can stay.”
Agnes shook her head. “No Da. I’ll stay. You take Horace and go. Ride as fast as you can to my friend Sanson Smyth in the North Shroud. He’ll be waiting.” She squeezed his hand again. “I’ll be okay.”
The dragon rolled his eyes. “Touching. Now, decide thief. Shall you stay or go. Make it quick.”
Go. Please go. I’ll be fine. I can handle this twat.
Corrai sighed and squeezed his daughter’s hand. “I’ll be back fer you, Agi. I promise on your Mum’s grave.”
“LEAVE!” The dragon roared, baring all its fangs. Corrai gathered his coat and quickly scurried away, leaving Agnes and the dragon staring daggers at each other. “You broke the lock on the cell, woman.”
“My name isn’t woman, twat. It’s Agnes Currai---daughter of Corrai and Luci Currai.”
The dragon snorted. “If that man was indeed your father, then I have many questions.”
“I’m adopted, not that it matters. And just who the seven hells are you?”
“As I said, I’m lord of this castle. You may call me…Estinien.”
“Well Estinien, you broke my very expensive staff that I had made at the Carpenters Guild, so you better make me another one SINCE YOU BROKE IT.” Agnes’s anger filled her and her outburst, she thought, is rather unbecoming but fuck it, he broke my staff!
Estinien rolled his eyes. “A prisoner demanding recompense for a staff. How strange. AYMERIC!” He roared.
Who’s Aymeric? Wait a second---is that a bouncing candelabra?
“Forgive me, my lord. Ah, I see we have another visitor. I am Aymeric, milady. His highness’s valet and head of household.” The candelabra bowed, and Agnes blinked several times. “Might I show you to a properly furnished room? Pray follow me. This way.”
I’m losing my mind. I’ve got to be dreaming, right? Right?
“My lady, this way please. I can also have some food brought to you.”
With one last look at Estinien, Agnes followed Aymeric out of the hallway with the cell.
What the fuck is going on here? Lord of this castle? Why is a candelabra talking to me?!
***
Meanwhile, in Costa del Sol…
“I hath heard a strange rumor, mine friend.” Urianger Augurelt said as he sat to join his friend and companion Thancred Waters. “Agnes Currai left this place to search for her missing father Corrai Currai.”
Thancred snorted as he drank his beer. “That sounds like her---rushing headlong into yet another adventure. Oh Agi, I hope you return soon so that I could court you.”
Urianger raised an eyebrow. “You wish to court Agnes?”
“Of course! She’s beautiful, can cook, is a healer, and she’s tall! Our children would be perfect, wouldn’t you say?”
“I, erm—”
Thancred smirked. “Exactly! Agnes Currai is the woman I’m going to marry.”
#agnes currai#estinien varlineau#estinien wyrmblood#estinien x wol#wolstinien#aymeric de borel#thancred waters#urianger augurelt#beauty and the beast au#these two dorks#estinien's just a grumpy dragon#aymeric is a suave candle dude#and yes thancred is gaston lmao

when tom said it would be a sad movie THE BOY WASN'T JOKING
to me it was a better experience then avengers endgame because the movie didn't have that epic tone. it was very very sad, the whole damn time
my heart crushed to see little pete so hurt by seeing his friends suffer with the consequences of being close to him
i loved that they gave mj more space to grow as a character and being more involved in the story. like, she's not that "i don't care about anything" girl we met on hoco anymore. i like that turn.
also neddy baby i love you, you're so precious
although the movie is very sad, you're gonna laugh A LOT!!! there are a lot of funny moments that you'll die of laughter
but ALRIGHT let's get to the reeeeal spoilers
starting of with DAREDEVIL!

alsooooo jamie foxx!!!!! you're still a hottie uhm???
but i have to say PETER YOU HAVE TO STOP BEING SO KIND HEARTED BECAUSE THE WORLD IS NOT KIND TO YOU BACK!!!!!
but he needed to be stubborn, didn't he?
once again fucking things up because he's stubborn
but i liked that no other grown man had anything to say on his life. no tony stark. no stephen strange. HE DID HIS OWN DECISIONS AND HE HANDLED THINGS ALONE!
also do i need to mention that i think clever boys are hot? 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵
fuckmesmartpeterpleaseibegyou
when the thingy worked with octavius, i was so proud
but like heart crushed ten seconds later
norman osborn i've hated you since i was born and i still hate you know
because (this might be the biggest spoiler in the movie) may's death CRUSHED MY HEART INTO A THOUSAND PIECES
like i was literally writing another fanfiction about may being a sweet cool auntie and now i don't think i'll be able to finish it because my heart aches to know she's not alive anymore
and the WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY line OH GOD! the WEIGHT BEHIND THOSE WORDS
but watching tom's face holding her as she died it was THE WORST EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE. i cried my heart out
please protect baby peter from all the harm in the world please please please
like the scenes of him grieving, wanting to kill norman... i will have it forever marked on me

they uniting to ground peter through his grief
oh, and what's hotter than a smart peter parker? THREE SMART PETER PARKERS!
their little dinamic coming up with a plan to help all the villains and at the same time bringing their universes together like they were sitting at a pub table
epic
and i have to say, peter parkers, you are amazing
seriously their interaction...
they just get each other, yk?
AND THANK GOD THEY DID THE THREE SPIDERS MEME
also skipping ahead because i'm tired (i got the last session of the day okay??)
I THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO KILL TOBEY LIKE FOR REAL
I WOULDN'T HAVE ACCEPTED THAT, THANK GOD THEY DIDN'T

who lives, who dies, who tells your story: chapter four
TW: aftermath of torture, pain, blood.
******************
“That’s where you think Will is?”
Horace inquired, looking at the big warehouse sized building with a skeptical eye.
Halt nodded, “That’s where I think he is.” he said matter of factly.
“And you know this, how? We’ve circled the area twice, the gates are chained shut, and dusty. It doesn’t look like anyone’s been here for years, Halt.”
Halt raised an eyebrow at Horace's mistrust. He understood it of course, worry for Will had been driving both of them to near insanity for the last several days. Horace had come immediately to Will's rescue at Halt's request, not that Halt ever had any doubt he would.
“Tug went crazy when we first caught sight of this place- reminded me of when we found Will in Skandia that one time. It was the same reaction here…”
Halt was quiet for a moment, but Horace felt he had more to say so he restrained from replying just yet.
“Plus, I just have a feeling.”
Horace nodded at the sentence he knew was coming. When it came to Will, Horace knew that Halt would always just know. Whether or not there's facts or evidence. Will was an instinct for him, he was his purpose, his destiny. Halt would always have a feeling toward what decisions were to be made on his behalf.
“Well, how do we get in then?” Horace now asked.
Halt moved away from the small ridge of land they had been watching from, and walked back toward where their horses were grazing on the dry grass. Along with Tug, who’s nervous air hadn’t subsided since they got within 100 feet of the property. Tug was pacing as well as a horse can, whinnying every so often, and letting out a whine like sound. Like a cry.
“I think our best bet would be the back entrance, that’s likely to have less security.”
The older ranger said at a louder volume then they had been speaking before. The haunted looking place had automatically insinuated silence in the minds of the knight and ranger. And while they were observing the property they had adopted hushed voices in respect to that.
Horace replied at the same volume,
“Alrighty then.”
He sheathed his sword, and grabbed his worn shield, painted with a symbol of an oakleaf. As Halt buckled his scabbard and double checked his quiver, before swinging it over his shoulder.
They simultaneously started moving toward the building together, and stopped once more at the ridge. Looking on in silence for a moment before Halt broke it with a sharp whisper,
“Let’s go get him back.”
—-------------------
Will hovered in the veil between lucidity, and unconsciousness. Still bound, shirtless and bloody in Alaric’s chains.
He felt dead, although he wasn’t. Which was a shame in his mind, death would be more painless than this. The agony threatened to overwhelm him, and he questioned for a moment how the hell he was still alive. Everything hurt. Will prided himself for his high pain-tolerance, but my god, everything. Hurt. He stopped fighting the trembles long ago, and his throat was on fire from all the screams that had torn their way through his mouth.
He would die here. He knew that much. There was no plausible way that Halt would find him, and if he did…well Will was smart enough to know that he’d be dead by then.
So all he could do was wait. In the merciful aloneness that Alaric had granted him. Even just for a few moments.
In these blessedly quiet moments of numbness, Will’s only comfort was thoughts of home. He and Horace, fighting side by side, through moments of battles or missions. Sitting on the patio together at his cabin, watching the sun rise over Redmont. The brothers laughing together in hysterical relief, as they came down from the high of a close run-in on a mission. Halt watching in the corner of his eyes, shaking his head in disbelief.
Halt.
Oh god, Halt.
Halt had been the Father Will needed. When the grisly Ranger would knock him on the head, call him an idiot, Will somehow felt warm, proud, loved. Will had always had the need to prove himself to his pears to receive love, and affection. But with Halt, Will never felt that he had to earn it to feel loved. Halt was a Father to him, just as much as he was a son to Halt. He had saved his life on too many occasions to recount, he had held him through his worst nights, he had nursed him back to health when sickness raged his body. He had been there when he graduated, he had been there after difficult missions, he had been there after Macindaw, and he had been with him in Clonmel, and Nihon Ja. Any life-changing, major events in Will's life, Halt had been by his side. A support system of sorts. Halt always knew the right time in place for everything. Whether it was a knock on the head after hearing about his failed proposal, or a tearful hug after he had married the love of his life.
Alyss.
How does one even begin to describe Alyss.
Will would never understand what his wife saw in him. All he knew was that he loved her, and somehow- somehow, she loved him too. Alyss was one of Will’s wins. She was a victory over everything that’s been an obstacle to Will’s happiness throughout his life. She was his light, his life, his everything. Will only hoped she could move on from him.
He hoped they all could move on.
And with that comforting thought, Will drifted off to a pain-induced sleep once more.

Lunch- Jasper Badun x OC
Jasper Badun x Angela Young
Description: Jasper takes Angela to lunch, where they learn something interesting about each other.
Word Count: 2.3k
“The full moon's bright. And starlight filled the evening,” came Elton John’s smooth chorus from the radio hanging on the wall of 2nd Time Around. It would have brought a smile to Angela’s face if that hadn’t been the sixth time she heard it in the past two hours. Artie had recently purchased Elton John’s latest album “Captain Fantastic and the Dirt Brown Cowboy” and he brought it into the shop so Angela could listen to it as well. Only problem is their radio seemed to be having problems with it, that song after every other one. At first Angela thought it was just a hiccup, but this was starting to get ridiculous.
“Artie, it’s playing that song again,” she complained, leaning against the counter.
“Hitting it seems to help,” came her boss’s voice from the back room, where he was putting price tags on some new stock. “There’s no one here, just hit it until it skips.” Angela looked around, noting that he was right about both things. She was glad that the store was empty, ever since Cruella revealed that Artie and Angela worked for her at the party she threw, people were more eager to visit their shop. Today was Sunday, no one usually shops on Sundays so today was the first day that Artie and Angela could relax and sort of restock.
Still, that didn’t make her want to do this any less. The girl groaned internally and grabbed the stepladder, setting it up under where the radio hung on the wall. She carefully climbed the steps until she was face to face with that stupid machine and began hitting it in an attempt to make it work properly, trying to ignore the blaring music going straight into her ears.
“We wrote it and I played it, Something happened it's so strange this feeling, Naive notions that were childish,” Elton continued to sing, successfully covering up the sound of bells jingling, signaling that someone had walked in.
“Just skip already you stupid radio,” she grumbled, annoyed. The radio didn’t care about the insult, continuing to play that infernal song.
“Simple tunes that tried to hide it, But when it comes, We all fall in love sometimes.” She groaned loudly, getting ready to hit the machine again when a voice came from behind her.
“I don’t know, I actually found that song quite good,” Jasper spoke, hands going into the pockets of his jacket casually. Angela nearly fell off the ladder, having not heard him enter the store, then faced him.
“Oh! Sorry, I didn’t hear you come in,” she greeted, climbing down the ladder and straightening out her dress. “Welcome to 2nd Time Around. I’m Angela, or Angel as in: sent from above.” She gestures to her body with a bright smile.
“That was cute,” Jasper commented with a small smile. “Did Artie come up with that one for you?” Angela nodded.
“I felt a bit left out since he had that ‘Art, as in: work of’ line so he helped me out,” she explained, moving the ladder. “What can I help you with? We just got new stock from Dior, Chanel, and even Saint Laurent. From casual looks for lunch or suits for going out on the town, we have it all,” she explained, gesturing to several racks around them. Jasper let her do her whole spiel, knowing how much she loved coming up with stuff like that, before shaking his head.
“Well I didn’t originally come here for clothes but it seems that your customer service has changed my mind,” he said, making her giggle. “That can come later though. It’s nearly time for your lunch break so I figured I’d take you out to lunch.” Angela smiled internally, touched that he remembered such mundane things in her schedule.
“Well, let me just go click out and I’ll be ready,” she responded happily. He nodded and waited patiently as she walked to the back room, informing Artie that she was going on her lunch break, before clocking out and grabbing her coat. She slipped it on as she walked out.
“Wow, nice coat,” Jasper complimented, making her blush.
“Well thank you, I designed it myself.” She spread her arms out and turned to show him the entire thing.
“Beautiful,” he spoke softly before holding out his hand. “Ready to go?” She took his hand with a nod then called a bye to Artie as they walked out.
“So, how has it been living at ‘Hell Hall’?” She asked as they began walking down the sidewalk. Of course Artie and Angela stopped by Cruella’s new estate for work, but that’s just what it was. Jasper and Horace didn’t like to interrupt the dressmakers while they were working. There was a fashion show coming up so they had to get everything done as soon as possible. With all the chaos at the shop and at Hell Hall, the new couple had no time to see each other. It was surprising to Angela that her boyfriend had come by in fact. This was the first time in a week and a half that they truly got to see each other, and Angela wanted to make that time count. Jasper wrapped the arm closest to her around her shoulders and his other hand went into his coat pocket while hers went into her jacket’s pockets.
“Strange,” he answered honestly. “I lived in that cramped house for 23 years, I had the chance to get used to it. Now, I could get an entire floor of this huge mansion to myself if I just say the word. And yes, Cruella has tried.”
“You’re not used to having so much space,” Angela clarified. The man nodded.
“Exactly. Horace and Estella were always within arm’s reach in case something happened,” he continued. “Now it takes a commute to find either of them. I just- I don’t know…I kind of wish things were how they were. Before I got Estella the job at Liberty, before Estella became Cruella.” He looked at his girlfriend once he finished his rant. She hummed then gave him a patient smile.
“Things like this take some getting used to Jas. You’re a creature of habit, of course you’re not going to get comfortable right away. And that’s okay, I know that Cruella and Horace understand. And about Cruella, she’s always been there from what I understand. She was going to come out no matter what, it was only a matter of time when. She was like a ticking time bomb, but we all still love her either way. That’s what matters, right?” Jasper sighed, he had a love/hate relationship with her logical thought process.
“Besides,” she added. “If you hadn’t gotten her the job at Liberty, she wouldn’t have met Artie and I. Then you would never have met me.” That was enough for Jasper to look at her once more with his usual adorkable smile.
“You’re right. I’d rather die than to never have met you,” he muttered sincerely. Angela smiled and stretched just enough to kiss his jawline.
After walking a few more minutes Jasper finally opened the door of a small restaurant in a shopping strip for her and led her inside. Lunch went by rather quickly, and before they realized, the check had been placed in front of them. Angela went to grab it but Jasper handed the money to their waiter without hesitation. Their waiter thanked them and walked away to put it up, leaving Angela to jokingly glare at her boyfriend.
“Jasper I could have paid, you know,” Angela scolded softly.
“I wanted to wait for us to go on a date so that I could be the one to pay for it, Angela. Like a gentleman, you know. I have the chance to do that now, so please let me.” The girl quieted immediately. She hadn’t thought about that. Rather than responding, she only thanked him and switched the conversation, much to his relief.
“Well, I still have twenty minutes left of my lunch break. What do you say to a small stroll?” She questioned as they stood in unison.
“Sounds great love,” he responded, taking her hand and walking out. They walked a few minutes until they ended up in front of what both of them recognized as Liberty, where a worker was setting up the new display case.
“Oh man, this reminds me of a few months back before I met you guys,” Angela reminisced with a smile. “I was passing by here on my way to work and there was a girl who got drunk and messed up the display case with trash. Man, did the manager look mad.” She laughed, harkening back to that day.
It had seemed like a normal day, since Angela lived so close to 2nd Time Around she usually just walked there everyday. She remembered how hot it was, so she wore short overalls on top of a yellow shirt. On her way there, she passed by the Liberty store, but paused when she noticed a few people crowding the display. That, of course, piqued her interest and she pushed her way to the front, apologizing every few seconds.
There was a woman with red hair who seemed to be asleep on the floor of the display case, empty trash bag in one hand and an almost empty bottle of what looked like whiskey in the other. The man beside her stepped forward and knocked on the window, jolting her awake.
“Why’d you go and sleep in a window?” Someone on the other side of the knocking man questioned dumbly. Oh, Angela had to show this to Artie. Carefully, she took her camera out of her bag and snapped a few pictures shortly before the manager walked out and grabbed her. Angela took the time to check her watch, and her eyes widened. She was going to be late! Before anyone could do anything else a car came screeching to a halt just outside the store, making everyone turn around. And, that was Angela’s cue to leave. She began pushing past people, knocking someone over almost immediately.
“Ah! Bloody hell!” The man groaned out upon hitting the ground.
“Sorry!” She called apologetically, though she didn’t turn back as she ran the rest of the way to work.
While she reminisced, Jasper stopped in his steps, thinking back to when Estella had done that.
“Wait, were you wearing denim overalls that day?” He questioned. Angela was confused by this, but quickly understood where he was getting at and looked at him with wide eyes.
“Oh my god, you’re the guy that I ran into after the Baroness arrived!” She exclaimed.
“You’re the one who snapped a picture of Estella then fell into me!” He responded in the same tone with a toothy grin.
“Did we seriously meet before we actually met?” She asked with amused disbelief. Jasper shook his head, feeling the same way as her by the looks of it.
“I cannot believe this,” he chuckled as they continued their walk.
“I still have the picture of that,” Angela mentioned. “It’s in my camera roll, I haven’t gotten the film developed though.”
“You know what, I can and will personally go with you to get it developed. That would be wonderful blackmail.” The girl shook her head at that.
“You’re bad,” she answered, though she couldn’t help but smile.
“I guess so.” They walked back to the shop, making pleasant conversation. That stopped when they stepped inside and saw Artie talking to someone very familiar.
“Hello Cruella,” Angela greeted chirpily, unlinking her arm from Jasper’s. “I didn’t know you were coming by. Lots of surprises today.” She took her coat off and began walking to the back room.
“Thought I’d come see how 2nd Time Around was doing now that you guys have publicity. Artie tells me you two have been working overtime,” Cruella responded, resting on her cane. “You could have told me, I wouldn’t have worked you to the bone after work every night.”
“Yes, almost two hundred customers a day,” Artie added. Jasper’s eyes widened as Angela walked back out.
“Two hundred? How are you two still alive?”
“Lots of determination,” Artie responded simply.
“And our new coffee machine,” Angela added, leaning against the counter. Jasper rubbed her back soothingly.
“Well, you guys are closed on Mondays, right? Why don’t you two come over, we’ll have a small sleepover and you guys can sleep in luxury. No offense.” Angela pursed her lips.
“None taken. I think.” Cruella’s usual smirk settled on her face once more.
“Great. I’m sure Jasper doesn’t mind driving down here once you close. Until then I have a few more stops to make. Come on Jasper.” She began walking out, pausing in the doorway to wait for him.
“Come back soon,” Angela spoke softly.
“Of course,” he responded with a sincere smile. “I still have some shopping to do and I heard there was a very cute worker here.”
“I would say that you’re referring to me, but I think that would ruin the moment, huh?” Artie joked, making the others laugh. Jasper shook his head amusedly and leaned down a bit to give Angela a quick kiss goodbye then began following his friend. The two waved as they watched them walk out, then they heard Elton John’s voice ring out once again.
“Wise men say, It looks like rain today,” the same song started for the seventh time.
“Want me to have a go at it?” Artie questioned knowingly.
“No,” Angela shook her head, surprising Artie though she couldn’t see it as her eyes were still trained on the door her boyfriend just left though. “It’s starting to come around for me.”

LOST character headcanons
here's a comprehensive list of my pronoun, gender, sexuality, and relationship headcanons for just about all the characters! this post will not have any spoilers.
when i say "with:" and list a BUNCH of people it doesn't necessarily mean that i think they're dating all of those people. by "with" it could mean anywhere from "dating and in love with" to "they banged once" lol. ill elaborate on which is which, tho. keep in mind i think that everyone on the island was definitely VERY sexually active and didn't give a fuck about keeping it a secret. i mean, they were all surviving on a deadly island together— why bother keeping secrets?

Devil’s Sweet Star (30)
Fandom: Dead by Daylight
Ghostface x Female Reader
Rated M for Violence, Language and Smut
***
Hunting. It's tiring by force when you run after a prey for hours. But the reward is more than pleasant when we finally find it. The fear that we read in their eyes, but also the pity... It's so satisfying. Their little cries asking to let them live. Sometimes it works. But usually, they die. It’s the law of nature. The strongest, the most agile, the most intelligent always gets by, the weaks die. But when you come across another predator, who wants to steal from you what belongs to you, the music is different. And in case you've forgotten, Danny doesn't like to share his things. Especially you.
If Jed promised you to do nothing about the server last time, this isn’t the case with Danny, and less with Ghostface. He intended to give him a good lesson. A lesson he can never forget, even if he died. He had finally found him, he was a replacement, he worked for another restaurant, in another nearby city. Poor guy... he's not even from here and he died for a simple... stupidity.
Danny will always remember his look. From the predator, this fool has become prey. He will always remember his words, begging him not to kill him. Like everyone else, in itself. Danny was too used to it. And the result is always the same: he kills them. this poor fool must never have dared to seduce you, NEVER. He has paid a high price for it. Certainly, he must have family, friends etc... But no one in Roseville will know about this story. Since he didn't live here.
Danny is already very nice to let his alter ego Jed take care of you; he will not let all the men approach you! However, a smile stretched over his face. This little tantrum you had during your last meeting, it's like you ordered him to kill this server. It was your little signature on the murder contract. Of course, you still wanted to make the innocent little girl, who doesn’t want to harm anyone. But there... there you have to show a completely different facet. You haven’t explicitly said it, but the fact that you are tired of being seduced and taken for a weak as this "damn server!" said is more than enough for him.
“I knew you had your own dark side... my beautiful bird. Your little cage of purity begins to break... But you don't have to care... I would be there to take care of you.” He said to himself, looking at your picture.
He kissed the picture before putting it in the drawer of his nightstand. He took the frame where the picture of Carla and him was. If only he could go back in time, he could have acted, he could have asked another doctor to treat her, to give her the right treatment. And she would still be there. But the time machine doesn’t exist. He has to deal with it. He rested the frame and prepared to go to work, today he will not be at the police station. Today he will be at Hoggins' House. Since he was accused of killing McKellan, he has been trying as best he can to exonerate himself. And it's a golden opportunity for Danny to spot places from the inside.
He took the opportunity to look in the mirror. The shy Jed disappeared little by little, leaving more room for Danny. And it was perfect, that's exactly what he wanted. The more he let himself go, the more his alter ego faded in your eyes. Soon, all that will remain of Jed is his name. And one day Danny will be able to reveal his identity to you. His TRUE identity. No more hiding. Danny pulled out his phone and called Mattew. It’s with him that he will interview Hoggins today. Melina, on the other hand, continues to work with the police.
“Hey Jeddy! How are you doing? Are you ready for the interview?” said Mattew cheerfully on the other line. Jeddy... a nickname that even Danny has become accustomed to over time. He wonders what nickname he would have given him with his real name.
“Hey Mattew I am fine, thank you. Of course, I'm ready, probably more than you. I'm sure you're not even dressed yet.” responds Danny chuckling.
“Think again! I am dressed, my hair is done and I'm ready to go! I come to pick you up or you pick me up from my house?”
“I'm coming to pick you up. I haven’t forgotten what almost happened last time.”
“First, it wasn't me but the other big idiot in front and then I'm a very good driver! But if you want to pick me up... I'm not going to hold you back.” Mattew replied.
“I got it... Chris took the car. Okay, I'm coming. Get ready, in 5 minutes I'm here. See you right away!” Answers Danny before hanging up and sighing. Mattew will never change.
But actually, within 5 minutes, Danny found himself in front of Mattew and Chris' house, and indeed, Chris had taken the car. According to Mattew, Chris had taken it to the mechanic to do a technical inspection of the vehicle. But knowing Chris.... The slightest screw will pass to the scanner. And it's likely to take the whole morning. It didn't take long to get to Hoggins' residence, as traffic was very fluid, Danny took the opportunity to press the accelerator. At least up to the maximum acceptance rate of the van. He parked not far from Hoggins' car, before getting off with Mattew from the vehicle. They headed for the front door and rang, only to be greeted by Hoggins himself.
“Ah, here you are! the little journalists of Roseville, but please come in! Your friend isn’t here?” Ask Hoggins with a smile.
“Our colleague Melina has been sent elsewhere Mr...” starts Mattew.
“No, I'm talking about the other girl... this adorable little bird of paradise that was with you at the reception...”
“(Y/N) doesn’t work at the newspaper. She was just accompanying us. I'M so lucky to have a girlfriend as adorable as her, indeed.” said Danny holding back from sticking his fist in his mouth.
“Oh...Well, congratulations then.” replied Hoggins, with a faint smile of disgust on his face.
Hoggins guided them to the living room and asked his butler to prepare coffees. He returned a few minutes later and put the tray on the table before leaving. Danny mentally disfigured the man in front of him, if Hoggins also had views on you, then his fall and his death will be nothing but delightful.
“Very well gentlemen, I don’t know if your boss has warned you, but I have a very important appointment, so I may have to leave and shorten this interview. I apologise for that.” said Hoggins before taking a sip of coffee.
“It won't take long, don't worry... 1 or 2h I think will be more than enough, Right Jed?” ask Mattew, taking Danny out of his macabre thoughts.
“Yes... it would be a shame if Mr. Hoggins missed such an important appointment because of us...” hisses Danny between his teeth without letting Hoggins out of sight... What a dirty pretentious asshole.
Mattew began asking the questions while Danny took notes as his answers progressed. He had started soft, asking him the origin of his rise in the American market. Then after an hour, it's Danny’s turn to ask the questions... and he's not going to go smoothly.
“Very well, Mr. Hoggins. As you know, you and Mr. McKellan are in the midst of a scandal about …" He started before being cut by Hoggins.
“Yes, I know, and I have replied to many of your colleagues that all this was just a plot from my previous partners who sank today. But do I really have anything to do with it? They didn't see things in a big way, that's what lost them.” responds Hoggins nonchalantly.
“Yes of course... But you also know that... you are accused of having ordered the murder of your partner Horace McKellan...because you think he was the one who broke this scandal.” replied Danny, with a slightly provocative look.
“And it's still a plot against me. Horace was a great partner and friend. Even though I accused him and threatened him... I could never have taken action. That’s unthinkable.”
“You, no... but you could have hired someone. That is what you are accused of. Apparently, you would have chatting with a man three days before threatening McKellan. And given the appearance of the man... I suspect it wasn't to discuss garden and DIY.”
“This appointment... was in the domain of privacy mr Olsen... What we said to each other was about a completely different business than the one I had with Horace.”
“I didn't know that a man of the high... was doing business with a notorious drug dealer. I wonder what kind of business you deal with together...” Replied Danny with a sneaky grin.
“I'm sorry gentlemen but... I will have to end this interview. My appointment will not take long to arrive, I don’t want to make him wait, it would be ... counterproductive on my part. I hope, however, that I have been able to answer all your questions. My butler will accompany you.” answer Hoggins with the same grin.
“You know what they say sir... sooner or later the rider will fall from his horse. And the fool will be locked up. Have a good day.”
The butler escorted Danny and Mattew to the door. Once outside, the two journalists got back into the van and Danny couldn't help but hit the steering wheel with his fists. This surprised Mattew who hadn't seen his colleague being angry before. And for once he lets go... it's really disturbing to think that he's quite inexpressive in nature. At least of what Danny kindly showed him.
“What a son of a bitch! I swear to that damn God that if I didn't hold back for job and Wilhelm's investigation, I would go back inside and I would smash his head against the wall!” said Danny flustered.
“Calm down Jeddy... If he goes to jail, tell yourself that he will suffer. Already that when you are there, the other prisoners don’t give you gifts ... then a rich man like him, they will not miss him. Let's go eat and have a drink somewhere. It's going to relax you a little bit.” said Mattew, trying to appease him.
Danny sighed and set out to get back in town, with a little smile on his face. On the road, Mattew tried to relax the atmosphere, but it wasn't his jokes that made Danny laugh, but his colleague and friend's attempt to relax him. They stopped to take food and drink from a fast-food restaurant in the city. But as if the day wasn't already annoying enough, two guys approached them to steal them. Danny sighed, gently took off his glasses before giving them to Mattew. Then suddenly turns to punch one of the two men in the face, who fell to the ground. The second hit Danny in return, who punched back in the stomach and another in the head.
“It's good ?? you've had enough or I have to put a layer back?!” said Danny, threatening the two men by raising his fist.
The latter left without asking for their remains. Danny wiped his mouth with a hand gesture, noticing that he was bleeding a little. The blow was more violent than he had thought. He turned to Mattew who looked at him... stoic.
“What?”
“Dude... This is the first time I've seen you hit someone. It's the day of surprises or what?” responds Mattew.
“I told you... I'm nice as long as we're nice to me. But if we're not... I may not be very diplomatic. I was too walked on my mouth, when I was little, but today, it's over.”
The rest of the day was rather quiet after this incident. Danny had finally calmed down and with Mattew anyway, it was pretty hard not to calm down. They were both going to the newspaper to deposit what they have noted from Hoggins' interview and, on the way, have met Melina who had survived a full day with Wilhelm. What a miracle when you know her well. The trio greeted and separated, each returning home. Danny returned home, exhausted, and deep down, stills angry to see that Hoggins has views on you. Oh, his death will be a delight in his eyes... Oh, yes... Danny will enjoy it until the last second. As he walked into the building, heading towards his apartment, he saw you coming home as well, and given the way you walk, you look just as exhausted as he is. A smile came to his lips and he caught up with you as you were about to return to your apartment.
“Jed! You scared me...” you said with a sigh of relief.
“Sorry my love. how did your day go?” asks Danny, with a little laugh.
“I'm exhausted! we've had many, many, many people today. I believe that since I've been here, this is my most intense workday I've ever had. But... you’re hurt! What happened??”
“Nothing serious... let's say it wasn't a good day.”
“Go inside, I'll take care of it. And no discussion.”
“Yes Madam.” replied Danny, raising his hand before entering your appartement.
While you were treating him on the lip, Danny told you about his day. He couldn't help but hiss as he felt the disinfectant on the wound. But that wasn’t what was most important to him. The most important thing was to see your reaction to all this, from the disgust with Hoggins, to the anxiety when he told you about the fight that took place in front of the fast-food restaurant. Fortunately, they had no weapons on them... otherwise, God only knows how it would have ended.
“My poor Jed... it wasn't your day... I'm done.” you said, storing disinfectant and cotton pads.
“Thank you, madam. I was wise... Could I have a lollipop as a reward?” respond Danny jokingly.
“Very funny Jed. I don't have a lollipop but... I can give you that.”
You kissed him as he kisses you back. Taking you gently by the waist to bring you back against him. Suddenly he felt something unusual, your hand descending gently to touch his ass. If that's what you wanted to give him... he will not refuse.
“Do you really want to venture into this field? Be careful Sweetie, once launched, no going back possible. And I can last all night if I have to.” said Danny with a grin.
“Prove it. I can hold all night too.” you respond with a provocative look.
It didn't take more for Danny to kiss you roughly, bringing you little by little to the room. Or you're the one who take him to your room? No one can say. But Danny isn’t against it. He's been waiting for this for quite some time, and believe me, tonight ...the night is going to be long. You're going to ride his world, but he's going to rock yours.
This is the most beautiful way... to put his mark on you.
***
(And it’s done! I started to play RE Village recently and I'm in love with it! Even if I really freak out with that damn baby of Hell in Benevento’s House! XD I’m impatient to meet Heisenberg 👀...But first, I'm gonna kick Moreau’s ugly ass! I hope you’ll like this chapter like the others ones! Well, it's time for my brain to rest! Have a great weekend to you all! See ya!)

5e Sivir, the Battle Mistress build (League of Legends)
(Artwork made for Riot Games.)
Okay I know this is completely off topic but what the hell is Sivir's pose in her base splash art? Like oh my god doesn't that hurt your back? Jesus I know proportions are hard but wow this pose is terrible lmao.
Also it has come to my attention that I unintentionally made all the Legends of Runeterra Shuriman champions. Well I mean, Rammus isn't in LoR yet. Man we do really need more Shuriman champs.
Sorry I really don't have much of a blurb beyond that. Honestly only making Sivir for "randomly Shurima month." Like who actually plays Sivir anymore.
GOALS
Better duck! - We need to be able to throw everything at incoming danger and cut it down to size.
Here's where I get my cut - When faced with a hoard it doesn't hurt to be able to shoot everyone at once!
Nice try - Of course getting hit yourself would suck, so we're going to need ways to avoid incoming damage.
RACE
You have ascendant blood in you, which gives you just a touch of godly power. To connect to the gods look to the Aasimar. As an Aasimar you’d normally increase your Charisma by 2 but we’re instead going to invoke Tasha’s for a +2 to Dexterity. But your other abilities don’t change such as your Darkvision which I only mention because Light Bearer gives you the Light cantrip to help your friends with their dumb human eyes. You also get Celestial Resistance for a Spell Shield and Healing Hands for some potions in a pinch.
Fallen Aasimar require high Charisma and Scourge Aasimar hurt themselves as they fight, so we’ll be going for Protector Aasimar. We’re still going to get a +1 to Intelligence instead of Wisdom with Tasha’s rules, and we’ll cover more of what your subrace does for you at level 3.
ABILITY SCORES
15; INTELLIGENCE - Intelligence is tied to Investigation which makes it the tomb raiding skill. (I’d probably put Dexterity higher to be honest but I dislike uneven Ability Scores.)
14; DEXTERITY - You’re an ADC and even if you’re throwing stuff (which we won’t be in this build) Dexterity is still tied to most ranged combat abilities.
13; CONSTITUTION - While you may be squishy on the Rift we simply don’t need any other abilities for this build.
12; WISDOM - Wisdom is tied to Perception which is also useful when trying to avoid traps.
10; CHARISMA - You’re rather rough around the edges. Maybe if you were more Charismatic your fellow tomb raiders wouldn’t have double-crossed you.
8; STRENGTH - Even though you’re throwing weapons (which again: we won’t be for this build) you are very nimble and Fleet of Foot. Put simply we don’t need Strength at all for this build.
BACKGROUND
There’s no “Tomb Raider” background so we’ll fall back on Sivir’s job as a Mercenary Veteran. You get proficiency in Athletics and Persuasion as well as Land Vehicles and a gaming set of your choice (pick your poison.)
When you live the Mercenary Life you can easily identify other mercenaries by their emblems and logos. (RIP Clubs.) You know bits and pieces about their work, and can go seek them out for hints on the next ancient tomb to break into. And if all else fails you can fall back on mercenary work to maintain a comfortable lifestyle.
(Artwork made for Riot Games.)
THE BUILD
LEVEL 1 - ROGUE 1
Starting off as a Rogue because skills to raid tombs are always helpful. Skills like Acrobatics, Perception, Investigation, and... well we may as well grab Stealth as a Rogue. You also get Expertise in two skills: Investigation is the skill to find hidden loot, and Stealth is still pretty important as a Rogue.
When you live the mercenary life you know to speak in Thieves’ Cant so no wanabee treasure hunters try for your mark. Thieves’ Cant is a secret code with regular words that mean something else.
But let’s be real: what we’re really here for is Sneak Attack. When you have advantage on an attack (such as by attacking from stealth) or if your ADC is near the target you can do an additional d6 of damage.
LEVEL 2 - ROGUE 2
Second level Rogues are Fleet of Foot, and can use Cunning Action to Dash, Disengage, or Hide as a Bonus Action. Attack-Moving as an ADC is very important!
LEVEL 3 - ROGUE 3
Third level Rogues get to choose their Roguish Archetype, and you have the blood of a long-dead civilization in your veins. You revived your phantom of a great great great great (x20 more “great”s) grandfather, so Phantom Rogue will work well. Whispers of the Dead will let you choose a skill or tool to gain proficiency in after a Short or Long Rest, so you can adapt your tools to the situation at hand.
But more importantly you get Wails from the Grave. When you hit an enemy you can have your shot Ricochet to an enemy within 30 feet to deal necrotic damage equal to half the number of Sneak Attack dice for your level (round up.) You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Speaking of which your Sneak Attack die increases to 2d6. And speaking of more damage as a Protector Aasimar you get Radiant Soul. Once per long rest you can activate your Ascendant blood for 1 minute or until you end it as a bonus action. During this time you have a flying speed and deal extra Radiant damage equal to your level. Look just because we don’t see Sivir fly in-game doesn’t mean she can’t.
LEVEL 4 - ROGUE 4
4th level Rogues get an Ability Score Improvement: Dexterity controls most of what you do currently. Increase it by 2 for more damage, better skill checks, and better AC.
(Artwork made for Riot Games.)
LEVEL 5 - FIGHTER 1
ADCs are meant to fight, and Fighters are good at that! You get a Fighting Style to boost your right clicks and a “Marksman” needs Archery, even if they’re technically throwing weapons. (By the way by this point I’d recommend using a Longbow, for multiple reasons other than “it’s better than a Shortbow / Light Crossbow.”)
You can also pop the Heal Summoner Spell for a Second Wind, healing yourself for a d10 plus your Fighter level as a Bonus Action.
LEVEL 6 - FIGHTER 2
Second level Fighters are On the Hunt (by themselves), and can Action Surge to take an additional action! For now this just means one more attack, but your damage output will really increase at higher levels!
LEVEL 7 - FIGHTER 3
Third level Fighters get to choose their Martial Archetype, and while it’s perhaps not the most accurate or the strongest Arcane Archer is the only way to get some of Sivir’s abilities. But firstly you get Arcane Archer Lore for the Arcana skill (or Nature but Arcana is better), as well as the Prestidigitation cantrip (or Druidcraft but Prestidigitation is better.)
But your main feature is of course the Arcane Shot. Once per turn you can use one of your Arcane Shot options. You decide to use it when the arrow hits a creature, unless the option doesn’t involve an attack roll. Piercing Arrow will serve as your “Boomerang” Blade, firing a projectile in a 30 foot line that deals damage to everyone it passes through. This ability will go through cover so you can shoot past walls too!
There aren’t really many other options that fit Sivir, but Bursting Arrow will make your shot “Ricochet” on enemies within 5 feet of your initial target. And will do more damage, obviously.
You have two Arcane Shots per Short or Long Rest, but I’d really recommend discussing the subclass with your DM. Arcane Archer is known for being weak but it becomes a lot stronger if you make the Arcane Shots scale with either Intelligence modifier or your Proficiency Bonus. I don’t normally recommend homebrew changes but Arcane Archer is honestly a fun subclass hampered by how limited your Arcane Shot options are. I really recommend discussing buffs to the class if you wish to play one.
LEVEL 8 - FIGHTER 4
4th level Fighters get another Ability Score Improvement and while tricks are useful shooting good is still your main goal. Increase your Dexterity by 2 for the deadliest shots possible.
(Artwork by Horace "Hozure" Hsu and Alex "alexplank" Flores. Made for Riot Games.)
LEVEL 9 - FIGHTER 5
5th level Fighters get their Beserker's Greaves, granting them enough attack speed for an Extra Attack to make two attacks in a turn! "Business is good."
LEVEL 10 - FIGHTER 6
Fighters get Ability Score Improvements instead of Class Features, but that's cool because it means we can get feats! Your Constitution has been sitting at 13 for awhile now, and while I'd normally try to grab a more fun feat Resilient will increase your Constitution by 1 and also make it easier to resist spells, which is like a spell shield!
LEVEL 11- FIGHTER 7
7th level Fighters get their Mythic! Kraken Slayer will give you Magic Arrows that do... exactly what they say on the tin! Magic damage for the sake of overcoming resistance or immunity to nonmagical damage.
Additionally if you miss you can use your Bonus Action to Ricochet your shot to another enemy. Curving Shot will let you redirect a missed hit towards a different enemy within 60 feet.
You also learn another Arcane Shot option: Enfeebling Arrow is like exhaust on an arrow. The target takes an additional 2d6 Necrotic damage and has to make a Constitution saving throw. If they fail the damage of their attacks is reduced by half until the start of your next turn.
LEVEL 12 - FIGHTER 8
More Feats are fun! While I could take Resilient in every stat or perhaps Mage Slayer I think Lucky works better to simulate Sivir's spell shield. If you make a roll on a d20 that you don't like you can roll a Lucky die to change it. You can use this not just on saving throws but also attack rolls, ability checks, and even enemy rolls! (Though of course the most flavorful thing would be to only use it on your own saving throws.) You do only have 3 of these per Long Rest, so be sure to use them wisely to block deadly spells.
(Artwork made for Riot Games.)
LEVEL 13 - ROGUE 5
5th level Rogues can survive a bit of harass thanks to Uncanny Dodge, letting you reduce the damage from a weapon attack you saw coming by half with your reaction. "Nice try." Your Sneak Attack also increases to 3d6, meaning that your Wails from the Grave increase to 2d6.
LEVEL 14 - ROGUE 6
6th level Rogues get Expertise in two more skills: Perception will help you see danger coming, and Acrobatics will help you avoid that danger.
LEVEL 15 - ROGUE 7
7th level Rogues can dodge skillshot with Evasion. If you succeed on a Dexterity saving throw you take no damage. If you fail on the saving throw you only take half damage, instead of the full damage! "Step light, strike hard." Your Sneak Attack also increases to 4d6.
LEVEL 16 - ROGUE 8
Another Ability Score Improvement is in order, and this will actually be your last one! More Intelligence will boost your Arcane Shots, but the Sharpshooter feat will boost your regular shots. It’s up to you what you do really; adapt your build for more Ability Power or more Attack Damage.
LEVEL 17 - ROGUE 9
9th level Phantom Rogues can loot the dead. When a creature you see dies within 30 feet you can use your reaction to grab a Tokens of the Departed. You can have a maximum number of soul trinkets equal to your proficiency bonus, and can’t create one while at your maximum. You can use soul trinkets in the following ways:
While you have at least one soul trinket you have advantage on death saving throws and Constitution saving throws.
When you deal Sneak Attack damage you can destroy one of your soul trinkets to use Wails from the Grave without expending a use of that feature.
As an action, you can destroy one of your soul trinkets to ask the spirit associated with the trinket one question. The spirit appears to you and answers in a language it knew in life. It doesn’t have to be truthful, and it answers as concisely as possible, eager to be free. The spirit knows only what it knew in life, as determined by the DM.
And to top it off your Sneak Attack increases to 5d6, which also means your Wails from the Grave increases to 3d6! “Life’s cheap. Death pays.”
(Artwork by Jean “Curing” Go. Made for Riot Games.)
LEVEL 18 - FIGHTER 9
9th level Rogues get another Spell Shield with Indomitable. Once per Long Rest when you fail a saving throw, you can reroll it! It’s really that simple.
LEVEL 19 - FIGHTER 10
10th level Arcane Archers get another Arcane Shot Option. What? Did you want actual class features? Too bad! Regardless take whatever option you think will be useful honestly, because we got everything we wanted from the earlier levels.
LEVEL 20 - FIGHTER 11
Now that you’re finally six-slotted you can attack three times with your Extra Attack, or 6 times with Action Surge!
FINAL BUILD
PROS
I've got values; they stack up nicely - Three attacks per turn is good in its own right, but you’ve also got Arcane Shots, a Sneak Attack that can affect two targets, and Radiant Soul to add a flat +20 to your damage every turn.
I'll fight for a cause; I won't die for one - Having around 150 HP is nothing to sneeze at, but what’s really impressive is your saving throws. Proficiency in DEX, CON, and INT saves means you won’t be failing those saves anytime soon, especially since your Soul Trinkets give you advantage on CON saves!
You've got a problem, I've got a price - You’ve got plenty of utility with Expertise in the two “searching” skills, the ability to interrogate people after death, and of course good ol’ Lucky if things go south.
CONS
Make me work for it - You need a lot of actions and reactions to operate at maximum effectiveness. Soul Trinkets are tied to spending reactions and you need your Bonus Action for Curving Shot as well as your Cunning Actions.
Don't get between me, and my gold - You’re honestly not that skillful for a Rogue, with a lot of dud skills (let’s be honest you really don’t need Athletics) instead of potentially more useful things like Insight or Survival. Sure +13 to Perception is nice but that and Investigation are probably the only two skills you’re notably good at, as your took Expertise in general Rogue abilities instead of team utility.
They say the desert is a cruel mistress - Half your saving throws are very good. The other half...? +1 Wisdom saves are quite mediocre for a common save, and -1 to Strength saves certainly has the chance to hurt. Even if you can reroll them it’s still going to be hard to make those saves.
But you’re reliable which is all that can be asked for a mercenary. Your jobs are to fight and to nab treasure, both of which you’re damn good at. Go ahead and pull this build out if the party needs a reliable marksman, and if you roleplay them well they may not even realize you’re playing a character from League of Legends. Pull a little Sneaky on them.

I could not imagine horace seeing that and not having a complete meltdown 😭 your person seizing until they pass out for DAYS? I think with the dead rising power my brain would immediately go to like “a life for a life, oh my god he’s going to die”
Oh Horace FREAKED
Horace had a full-blown panic attack. They heard a thud from upstairs and then Enoch was on the floor in Victor’s room with sparks still running down his arms and through his hair and then Horace started freaking out and then they got him back down to his room and Horace REFUSED to leave his side until he woke up and he was so much more anxious than he usually is the whole time
Horace made him personally promise to absolutely never do that again and honestly Enoch was too scared to say no

Imagine (Son of Hades! Percy; Godswapped! Big Three's kids) Son of Neptune AU (2/7) or (7/12)
Hello! Before reading, check the PJO AU and the TLH AU - the links are on the masterpost - because they are essential to this one. Don't forget to check the warnings before reading. Review and make suggestions! And have a good reading :))
TW: This post in special has sexual harassment, racist slurs, and mentions of whipping.
Perseus wakes up in a semi-destroyed building full of wolves with a black ax in one hand and a Warhammer in the other. And that's just the beginning of the worst months of his life - or the only months of his life he can remember.
Then everything hurts - too much, like his skin is melting from his bones and his eyes are being gouged out. His skin feels like it's melting, and he promptly passes out.
He has no idea of who he is - except his name, but he might just know it because the wolf woman told him - and the talking wolves don't know - or can't tell him anything else. Either way, Perseus is getting nowhere.
Oh yes - he is also pretty sure wolves aren't supposed to shapeshift. And rope you into training - which, he must've been a bodybuilder or something because he is pretty good at wrestling.
Shoving the wolves into the ground and destroying the monsters that try and defy Lady Lupa's pack are the highlights of his week.
Lady Lupa is... - Lupa is everything he knows. She is the one who, for some reason, let's him stay. She tells him about the gods and the monsters - about how she found him in her doorstep after her home was sacked by Earthborn.
How he must be the sign of the Olympus that Lady Venus promised her. The one who comes to help.
Perseus doesn't know her - he doesn't know who she is or if she is telling the truth. But he has well-trained powers that he has no idea how to utilize, nowhere to go and no way of searching for his family - no one knows who he is, except for his first name (which sounds wrong).
And he tried to run away once - it didn't end well, because monsters are immortal - and everywhere.
Lupa tells him he had a curse upon him, so he has to train himself all over again now that it's gone. It doesn't sound like the truth, but he prefers Lady Lupa's carefully crafted half-truths than sleeping in the streets.
Lady Lupa teaches him - and tells him to expect the signal of the gods. They will guide him - even if they give him no answers.
Perseus doesn't like the gods much. They've left him here - which is a good place, but not his home, wherever it is - with no idea of who he is or what to do - except train and learn.
Mother Lupa - as most call her in the Wolf House - educates him like one would an unruly puppy. She corrects everything - from the way he addresses the gods at evening prayers to the way he sits - and he obeys.
Because in the midst of all those wolves? Perseus is just another puppy. So he sits and read hours of Vergil, Ovid and Horace in ancient Latin out loud - even if he would prefer not to.
Sadly - he does not have an opinion. Lady Lupa won't hesitate on using her whip on him. Oh yes, she has a whip - a black whip, which she uses to educate them. His back hurts sometimes when he rests upon the cold floor.
He prays to anyone - his godly parent - who is some Underworld God if his hold on shadows and stone means anything - or a friend, someone who's missing him, anyone really, for them to come and gives him answers.
It doesn't happen.
So he trains and he trains. He has no idea how much time has passed - how much time he has been slashing and cutting and killing, how much time he has heard every detail of Julius Caesar crusade through Europe.
It's still cold when the gods send their signal - they send him a maiden. She holds her hand to him like he is an old friend - and he goes.
She makes him only one question - "Do you want peace or answers, Perseus? Choose carefully, for no path will be easy, but the harvest comes for those who plant the seeds" - and when he answers, she climbs to his back and flowers create a path in the ground.
She doesn't talk anymore. He follows the trail and the girl threads her fingers through his hair, humming to herself a melody only she is able to hear.
In the way, there are two gorgons. Lady Lupa taught him about them. It's an easy battle - until he discovers that they just don't die. They keep reforming, like evil pottery.
They attack again and he picks up his ax to continue racking them into bits, but she tightened her fingers in his hair - like one would steer a horse.
So before they reform, he runs. Perseus runs - with a beyond beautiful maiden on his back (which would be really uncomfortable, if he wasn't so pissed with the gods for giving exactly no answers) doing nothing but play with his hair and eat granola bars - and he gets to a military outpost.
At least, it's what it looks like. There's a wall who must be at least 20 feet high. Its not a normal wall - because he can see eyes in its crevices, looking at him.
Perseus is really tired. There are people there - he is seeing them, do they think he is stupid? - and he has a person in his back.
So he kills both gorgons again with his stone spikes - he is pretty sure the guys that aren't opening the doors can deal with them when they eventually reform - and shadow travels inside.
He doesn't do this often - it takes a lot out of him and he might end up stuck in the wall if he is too tired, but he is too angry to care.
Perseus could've destroyed their door. He should've, really. It might have stopped those people from surrounding him with weapons.
These people - the people looming over him now that he crossed the barrier, who are using togas just like him, so different but so familiar - would've let him die for nothing. Perseus growls - a bad habit he picked up living only with wolves for an undetermined amount of time.
He should kill every single one of them. He should open the ground - and let it swallow them, let their bones turn to dust, return their weapons to molten metal.
But the maiden tightens her fingers in his hair, and he obeys - because Perseus has been well trained, and he doesn't bend.
"Who are you?!" A boy with a bow asks harshly, and Perseus wants him to rip him apart - he is so done. Perseus is a Roman - is what Lupa taught him - and Roman wolves don't roll over.
"Lady Lupa sent me." They don't look like they believe him, but they take him to their leader.
He feels like an alien - behind the wall, there's a whole new world - hundreds of people stare at him with a mix of fear, disdain, and curiosity. It feels familiar.
Perseus is reluctant to leave his weapons with a statue - specially while entering the territory of people who won't protect him and might try to kill him, but he is not one for scandals - so he thanks Lord Terminus, and goes on.
They enter the Senate after walking for about an hour - his head held high, even with the extra weight in his back - in the middle of the session. Lady Lupa would find this appalling.
Everyone turns to them - the tall black muscular man, dressed in a dark red toga, with a woman in his back also clad in a toga - they look like normal citizens, and yet, somehow, completely foreign.
Their escorts - a black girl no older than fourteen and the archer, that must be around his age - kneel to the Praetor - but as soon as they start explaining, they are interrupted.
Their promagistrate - a man Perseus will later learn is named Justus - looks at them once and shrieks.
"Lord Pluto!" They call him, and the whole Senatus knee down "Lady Ceres!"
The goddess he didn't recognize comes down of his back, chuckling to herself. All gods are mad - Perseus thinks, but keeps stoic in front of the government of this Rome copycat, else they kill him for disrespect or something.
"Rise!" She starts "You're almost correct, child of Justitia. For I am Ceres, but this is not Lord Pluto."
The promagistrate seems offended with Perseus somehow - like it's his fault the man is an idiot.
"This is his only mortal son and my daughter's champion, Perseus of Styx. He has been under Lady Lupa's tutelage in her command." This was new.
So his father was the king of the dead himself - which was not surprising. But he was apparently Lady Proserpina's champion - a goddess who left him with Lady Lupa, apparently with his father's, Lady Venus' and Lady Ceres' approval.
Perseus (apparently, of Styx) wants to tear Olympus apart. He wants a lot of things - but for now, he shall observe and do what it's told of him.
Ceres leaves him under the "care" of the Romans. Immediately, the Praetor takes him to be interrogated.
He tells her the truth - or at least, what he can bender: He has been with Lady Lupa as long as he remembers. Yes, he is trained. He can control earth, shadows, metal. Sometimes, vines and skeletons. No, he doesn't have a last name. No, he doesn't know Jason Grace.
In return, the woman (a daughter of Bellona with brown skin that he feels he should know) explains where he is.
This is Nova Roma - and they are in Jupiter's Capitol, also known as the First City of Twelve, where is localized their Forum Romanum - which is composed by the Comitium (where the Senatus is localized), the Pluton Denar Domum (their bank) and a temple for all the gods - decorated with gardens and founts mainly used by the politicians in session and augurs.
The other non-military districts are Juno's Urbs, where most families live; Minerva's Scientia et Quaerere Centrum, which contains schools, colleges, libraries, and research centers; Phoebus Apollo's Salutem Receptum, a whole district for health care and who mainly takes care of cleaning the city; and Vesta's Forum Boarium, where the temples reside, including the Hearth of Rome, with their sacred fire.
Then there the indirectly of military nature; Ceres' Agris, fields who produce all food of the city; Mercury's Via, where communication and post are handled - also, the main place for entertainment; Vulcan's Caminus, the forges and armory; and Neptune's Militiarum Equestri, battle horses, pegasi, hellhounds, elephants, wolves and hounds.
There's also the military ones: Venus Victrix's Feminam Lorem ad Bellum, the training camp for girls; Mars Ultor's Masculum Lorem ad Bellum, the training camp for boys; and Diana's Venari, a forest they use to hunt monsters.
Praetor Arellano shows him around. The praetor shouldn't be doing that, but he seems to be important enough - he got here with a goddess in his back after all. His step-grandmother?
"Everyone is involved in the war effort - Everything for Rome. Everyone capable is obliged to join the training as soon as they're eight. When you're ready, you join the Legion, for fifteen years, in any capacity. Some - the ones with specific talents - join the field healers or the forges."
"Most join the legionnaires. Later in life, some go to college - training to farm, teach, own business, plan buildings, weave, research, write, go exclusively into politics, or become doctors - for either animals or people. Some never leave until they absolutely have to - it's an honor to serve Rome."
"You are neither a son or legacy of any construction or any health deity, so you'll go directly to be tested by Mars Ultor's Masculum Lorem ad Bellum - to see if you are qualified to be a soldier or if you need to undergo more training, and how much."
"A fight, Praetor?" He asks, as respectfully as Lupa indoctrinated in him, even if he hated this situation from the start.
"It's part of it, yes. But a fighter is not a soldier - you'll be expected to know rhetoric and show resilience, to be able to think and strategize. Put on a good performance - the Centurions choose which Cohort you go."
Then, she explained the Legion and its Five Cohorts - and the Centurions - before leaving him with one of his escorts from earlier. He doesn't think it matters much - if one of the Praetors is from Third Cohort and their last Praetor, from Fifth, while the Consul himself was from Fourth - what does it matter?
The guard seems uncomfortable in his presence - as if she knows exactly who he is. She introduces herself - Hazel Levesque, daughter of Jupiter. And part of the Fifth Cohort - mainly because of the previous Praetor - the one who's missing.
Her buddy, the archer, - Frank Zhang, unclaimed - is also part of the Fifth Cohort. But it's not him they meet - it's a boy way too familiar to be a coincidence - three times today.
"You know me, don't you? You know where I come from?" He snarls, and the boy denies it.
Shadows start curling at his feet - and he's told later that his eyes darken to black from their usual forest green. Perseus is a second away from killing the little lying gremlin when Praetor Arellano shows - and he immediately reverts to parade rest.
She doesn't ask - and he doesn't volunteer an answer. He leaves the guy trembling - and flustered, for some reason - and goes with the Praetor to his "test".
Hazel is having a very bad year. A very bad life, to be true, but mostly, a bad year.
She died, and she was walking aimlessly for years - until she met a boy. She thought, initially, that was a god - for his beauty was insurmountable.
He talked with her - he was named Perseus Jackson. He was powerful and kind - but still a mortal, so she latched into him. Hazel isn't a good person - her mother always told her that - and she used his kindness to drawn just a little of his powers. Just enough.
When the Doors opened, she was strong enough to escape - even if she left Perseus drained for a week, apparently. Hazel didn't go far - she got caught by Ceres.
Ceres - who was in her greek form - took pity of her and brought her to Hazel's father and stepmother, pleading for her usefulness in the war to come. The dead aren't their domain - but as long as Pluto didn't discover it, they would turn a blind eye.
Her brother - who was the first bridge between the two demigod settlements - took her to Nova Roma. She adapted - she learned about the ending of segregation and the world they now lived - and made friends - Frank and Jason.
But she never forgot the boy who gave her the chance, the chance to be more than the cursed child Marie Levesque told her she was. Her curse is supposed to be washed away by a descendant of Pluto.
Perseus gave her a chance, and now he is probably her salvation from this poisoned existence. He is in Nova Roma, and both Hazel and Nico are too ungrateful, too proud, too involved in the gods' plans to help him.
Her father's curse rang true - for children of Zeus aren't supposed to control unaltered energy through minerals. Metal is not theirs to use - and Hazel is paying the price.
Perseus does well in his test - so well, the First Cohort wants him. He is not generally rude, but the way Octavian - their apparent Centurion and Leader of the Augurs (the priests of Apollo) - calls him "Excellent, for a colored one with a graecus name" makes him mad.
So he rejects Octavian - no one gets to mock his name, the slur for greeks matched with the blatant racism almost makes him clock the guy in the face - and, since no other Centurion wants to go against the white supremacist, he joins the Fifth Cohort.
"Well, there's the place for filth, anyway. What could you expect from a nigger ape, like that one?"
If in the training that followed, he left Octavian unconscious - well, everyone turned a blind eye. Perseus saw the Praetor laughing discreetly from where she was polishing her spear.
He is given a bunk to sleep on, a probatio tablet and a date - it's March 18th, 2012. He remembered that, when he ran away from the House of the Wolf, was still January's first week.
Almost three months for the gods to bother with him, and he has no guesses how much time he is missing. Did his family give up on him? Did he have a family?
Perseus doesn't know. He spends the next weeks following the army's routine - wake up with dawn with the horn, muster, morning prayers, then the morning drills - stretching, an obstacle circuit of three miles with a lake in the middle and running five times around Ceres' Agri.
After the drills - which Perseus and Hazel bond over hating, because there's a lake - they go to breakfast, then classes - for the younger ones. Perseus is old enough (and did well in the school tests), so he has a free slot where he allots his power training - under Praetor Arellano's watchful gaze, as she tries and brings him to his full potential.
Reyna (as he is allowed to call her during free time) also does power training - she has a different kind of charmspeak - the kind that makes people motivated or defeated. She can make armies have a burst of energy, or drop-down with exhaustion - possibly. Nova Roma has very few wars nowadays.
There's lunch, then weaponry training - where he kicks Octavian's (and all of his little friends who look down on Perseus because of his name, his lack of family or his skin color) ass with pleasure every single day - followed by weapon cleaning - which always takes forever because Perseus has both an ax and a giant Warhammer.
On Wednesdays, they have horse and pegasi riding. Both Perseus and Hazel have it slightly different - she mounts a venti, Tempest and he mounts a hellhound, Spot. On Fridays, they have hunting lessons in Diana's Venari - which always end up with some Apollo's child or legacy waving their victory in everybody's face - except for that one time where Frank and Perseus joined forces and won in an hour.
At four p.m. every day, those who did well enough get to have two hours of free time before evening prayers, which can either be followed by dinner or competitions - wrestling and gladiator games are really popular on weekends.
Then, if it's Sunday, they are allowed to go to Mercury's Via to drink, party, dance, go to karaoke - whatever, if they're over fourteen. It seems young - but Perseus has seen younger kids, at the training camps, sneaking in wine.
If it's not Sunday - they are free to do anything if they don't drink and are in bed by 21h30. You are only excused of the routine if you are escalated for border patrol - generally twenty different people every day. Perseus's patrols are on Thursdays - because Reyna loves him. Octavian's are on Sundays - they're just not on Saturdays because he has Augur functions and is excused of everything on Saturday.
Saturdays are days of prayer - there's no training and no feasting. They go to the temples and see the Vestal Virgins - a custom Perseus though would be outdated by now - and do basic chores - like washing their togas and sheets, mending their leathers, or airing the blankets.
When Hazel's brother leaves, he actually bonds with the girl - over being a child of the Big Three, of having big expectations thrust upon them - and consequently, with Frank - who is also his bunkmate. They spend their free time on the small fountain that overlooks the aqueduct, just in front of the Vesta Temple.
It's weird to see the Vestal Virgins - they are six girls between 8 and 24, wearing white stolas and veils, of incredible beauty and vowed to modesty and chastity. They spent their days tending the fire and giving blessings, cleaning the temple, and visiting the Senatus.
They didn't choose to be priestesses of Vesta - Vesta herself chooses them, and they have to leave their families and vow their lives away for thirty years. The other priests are there of free will - they never join the Legion, if they choose to serve a specific god.
Perseus goes to his father's, Lady Proserpina's and Lady Ceres' temples regularly - if only to ask for answers. His father's priests treat him as royalty - which, to them, he probably is. There are not even legacies of Pluto, as far as they know.
Every Sunday, Perseus goes to the Comitium - while people don't generally like him, he is good in rhetoric, and well respected for a probatio - so they hear him. He is good at politics. Reyna looks like he is measuring him, when he rises to debate - like he can be the next Praetor instead of the campaigning Octavian - who the Senatus is divided into loving or hating his guts.
Perseus is happy - or something. He hates not having memories - not knowing who he is, who his mother is, pains him. He has friends - Frank, Hazel, even Reyna and Dakota, his Centurion, who lives half-drunk in wine most of the time - and a life.
It doesn't feel like his life. By the third week of his staying in Nova Roma, he starts having dreams - a blonde boy, doing everything Perseus is doing now. He is afraid of telling anyone. Perseus is already called slurs by Octavian and his hateful friends - he doesn't want to attract attention now that he is settling.
By Reyna's pictures, he finally names the blonde in his dreams. It's Jason Grace.
Jason Grace is, for lack of a better word, graceful. He is loved by everyone - so different from Perseus, who is more feared then liked - and a troublemaker - if the vision of him being whipped in Mars Ultor's training camp is to be believed.
Romans don't hesitate in corporal punishment on children. Nor in adults, either - misdemeanors are punished harshly. Perseus is lucky Octavian has no direct authority over him - the number of times he put him on his ass would get Perseus bleeding on the floor for days.
However, he didn't escape the whip completely. In his fourth week on Nova Roma, Hazel is disrespectful to one of Octavian's friends - he called her a "good piece of monkey meat" and touched her ass, so she kneeled him in the balls. Reyna is out on a mission - and the guy just happens to be Questor Cicero.
Questor Cicero is twenty-eight - and everybody believes him when he tells them Hazel kneeled him without reason - a grave offense because it can affect his descendants. Hazel gets sentenced - by the Consul, in absentia of the Praetor - to a hundred lashes.
Everyone is obliged to watch - and neither Perseus nor Frank can last after she sobs. They rise from the crowd and volunteer to take the rest of her punishment. The executioner of it - a girl named Domitia - is surprised and asks why when they rise up to take Hazel's place - not a lot volunteer, generally older siblings or partners.
Hazel protests, while she is taken by a daughter of Aesculapius, Lavinia - "No, Perseus, no, it's my fault, Frank, I can take it, please!" - But he doesn't care to hear. Hazel is a child, and something stirs inside of his memory - No child shall suffer under his watch. - He wants to stop Frank - the boy is only sixteen - but there's no stopping the guy about his best friend.
"She could take it. I just don't want to see her, or anyone I care about, do it. She is too young. A child - one that shouldn't feel the injustices of life."
"That's my best friend. I won't let her pay for something she didn't do, and I won't let Perseus do this alone."
It's rational enough that no one will see weakness when she starts whipping them. Domitia is a good girl - they become a sort of friends after it, but Perseus can never understand why the daughter of Nemesis would dispense unfair punishments.
Perseus endure the whole thing awake - the forty-five lashes, under the jeers of Octavian and his friends - and they walk out of the stage supporting one another, before collapsing in a pool of their own blood, in the arms of Caelius - the youngest of Apollo's offspring working on the hospital.
They take both of them to the UTI - he doesn't remember a thing. He wakes up three days later - they aren't allowed to use any magic to heal him, or anesthetics to numb his pain. He suffers for a week, while his godly blood slowly heals him.
Hazel sits by their bedside - he and Frank are in the same room - her own back fully healed by now - and tells him stories about how Dakota kicked Octavian's ass in training in their name, or just plays with his hair. Sometimes, when she thinks he is asleep, she cries - it's heartbreaking.
Reyna comes back by the time Frank is out of the hospital - Perseus moved to much and his stitches came out - and is fueled by rage. This kind of punishment is hers to give - and with through interrogation before - and she has been trying to eradicate them for years.
She does insist on an interrogation with Aurum and Argentum - perhaps because she knows what a sweetheart Hazel is. She uncovers the whole story - how Cicero called her names and sexually harassed her - and the guy is stripped off his post and exiled - sexual harassment is a crime punishable by lashing, but together with lying to a court of law and supplanting his direct superior - oh well, he is not coming back for the next five years.
With Hazel's absolving, the doctors are allowed to heal them with magic - but it's too late. They can repair the nerves and muscles, take away all the pain - but the flesh will remain scarred.
Their backs are now a crisscross of scar tissue - it's a reminder of Nova Roma's failings - and he revels on taking his shirt off to drills, even if Frank is ashamed of it, for some reason.
Praetor Arellano thinks "Perseus' loyalty to the Roman Law and his Cohort" is enough to give him an SPQR tattoo instead of his probatio tablet. He didn't cry when they put the mark of his father on his arm - just later, in his bunk, for the eleven-year-old that was tattooed together with him.
After the tattoo, Perseus discovers he has money. Like, really, lots of money in the bank - which is named after his father, who is their patron god - and apparently filled his account with denars. Perseus solves to donate part of it - and part of it he keeps because his wages as a foot soldier are meager.
Hazel, on the other side, is brimming with remorse - and protectiveness. She will do her absolute best to protect Perseus Jackson - this is the second time he saves her. She can't tell him anything - but she can make his life as easy as possible.
Hazel dreams about Frank - Frank, and a terrible price that is a piece of wood - and she thinks she likes him, even if he is older and braver than she'll ever be.
It's June 18th - and Perseus has been in Camp for three months when the war games take an unexpected turn.
Frank is leading the Fifth Cohort - Dakota is hangover somewhere - and their battle formation is impeccable. They also have the two biggest powerhouses - Perseus and Levesque.
Hazel - while a child of Jupiter - is unable to fly - or any air or climate control. Her power lies on energy - publicly, she controls lighting and thunder - and can get bolts to basically incinerate whole canons or dismantle phalanges.
Perseus, however, can raise skeleton soldiers to fight for him - and stone spikes to block his enemies. His vines are of no use - the First Cohort has two sons of Ceres who out-do him any day. He can also use the shadows to confuse their rivals or make the ground tremble - under the cost of their own stability.
Frank is very proud of having such powerful and amazing people as friends. He didn't expect Perseus of Styx, the boy who didn't have to fight to be recognized - the one who came with a goddess at his back and muscles in his arms and a father on his blood - to be friends with Frank.
He is a very okay guy, you see. Frank had - has - three best friends, but no one openly dislikes him. He doesn't have someone - he has no use for quick tumbles under the cloak of darkness, and that is all people like him can ever have.
But he is not like Perseus or Jason. He doesn't defy Octavian. He was too anxious to muster the courage to volunteer to take Hazel's punishment alone - Perseus had to do it first.
He is not like them. He isn't anything like his mother. Frank feels happy, at least, that at those little things like war games he has better strategies than anyone else. It was Perseus who motivated him to take the lead while Dakota is otherwise incapable - under Hazel's cheerful applause.
This time, there are elephants involved - Perseus loves elephants - and they burst through their rival's doors - the 12th consecutive victory for the Fifth Cohort since Perseus arrived.
Gwen - the only openly ficatrix girl that Perseus knows, a Jewish daughter of Venus Genetrix - dies probably by Octavian's hand - and doesn't stay dead.
This evokes Lord Mars Ultor - who claims Frank, gives him a quest to find Letum and ropes Perseus into it - "Your father's domain, your responsibility" - so they choose Hazel as a third member - because who else - and get in a car to go to Alaska.
Before that, for Dakota's negligence, the Fifth Cohort is passed to newly-coined Centurion Frank - with Hazel as his second in command, while Gwen - who is not respected because of her preferences - steps down the second position to go study - apparently, she wants to be a teacher.
They have to be back by June 24th - or die. That gives them six days - it's at least two days going and two days back from San Francisco to Alaska, so they have two extra days to localize and rescue Letum.
Hazel, Frank, and Perseus battle the karpoi in Mendocino - this time, they're easily defeated, because no one leaves Hazel alone. Frank actually kills a lot of them - under the sheer appreciation of both his very supportive friends.
They see Polybotes army - and run away in their car, which crashes in the front of the R.O.F.L.
Perseus IM's Reyna - he thinks it necessary, for she is their Praetor, their leader. Hazel is right by his side - and then goes to call her brother - which he doesn't stick around for, examining the drachmas - the weird graecus' coins that Perseus recognizes
Iris remembers Perseus of someone. He doesn't know who, or why, but that night, for the first time in months, he doesn't dream of Jason Grace. He dreams of red hair spilled into the snow, blond curls around his fingers, a mechanic leg whirring in his ear, a spear coated with blood, shoes with wings and pan pipes - and wakes up crying for a past he doesn't remember.
He hugs the tie-dye bag against his chest - and cries. Perseus doesn't care - his chest literally aches with missing, for someone he doesn't know.
Frank doesn't ask questions when he finds Perseus crying. Frank cried a lot when he first got to Nova Roma.
"Are you missing someone?"
"I'm missing everything" And that's how Frank discovers Perseus doesn't remember anything at all.
Everything spills up - Lady Lupa's house, the dreams about Jason, the way he just dreamed of what could possibly be his friends, and what if he was a graecus like Octavian said - and Frank does not judge him.
He knows what it is to have a gigantic secret pressing upon his shoulders - and he has known Perseus for three months now. He knows Perseus is a trustworthy person.
"We'll discover who you are - but if you don't like it, we won't judge you. It doesn't matter what your past life has been like, it doesn't matter if you're a graecus - you're one of us now."
Because Frank is the absolute best - Perseus can't think of a friendship he deserves less than Frank's.
They trade stories about their rage against the gods - things they would never be able to utter at home. Their lives, their insecurities, their shared hate of Octavian's racist ass - everything they can share.
Frank tells Perseus about the piece of wood - which is very important when Perseus tells Frank that, sometimes, he can conjure a weird green fire of which he has little control over, so is better to keep that wood far away from him.
Some things are kept in secret - Frank is not sure Perseus will be repelled by his preferences, by the way, no woman ever caught his eye - and Perseus is afraid of telling Frank about the way that, sometimes, he wants to see the world burn, skeletons beneath his feet and blood coating his hands.
They travel through Portland - which means half the journey is done - and meet Ella - which Perseus immediately wants to take away from the creepy old dude because that's a child.
Ella is hungry and cold and in pain - and neither Perseus nor his quest mates are having that.
So he does a gamble with Creepy Old Dude and Lady Terra - which he isn't sure is in their side - and kills him. Because he is not dealing with a creepy old man who is trying to capture children, even if those children are monsters.
They take Ella with them - she's such a small, innocent girl-bird. They can't send her to Nova Roma alone - they would either kill her, hunt her or use her as entertainment - and they can't stop the mission, so there's that.
Hazel and Frank are sharing memories - with each other and Perseus. Perseus himself has no private memories to talk about - except for his dreams of Jason, which he already told Frank and now relays to Hazel.
Ella says is because their destinies are connected - says that their curses will be gone by their hands. Frank gives Hazel his piece of wood - "I would give it to both of you, but your fire is weird" - And Hazel tells them about being dead.
Perseus has an inkling of suspicion - that maybe - just maybe - he brought Hazel back. Maybe that's why his memories are gone. Either that - or he has a sibling, and wouldn't that be amazing? Siblings, cousins - a giant family. Just for him.
He doesn't ask though - because Hazel is sad and he is not an insensitive ass.
They head to the Amazon Headquarters - where Perseus has the amazing idea of going in, even if he knows Amazons just have one utility for men - sex.
They get caught - just this time, while Hylla does recognize Perseus, she is grateful. Perseus did kill Circe, yes, but he didn't free any pirates - Hylla and Reyna sailed away and never got any trouble.
Hylla is grateful for Perseus - but she cannot help him or Frank - Amazons are misandry warriors, and they are too young to be lovers, but too old to be reliable to let go. So they lock them up, and Hylla and Hazel make a plan to free them.
Otrera is dangerous - because the Amazons will follow anyone, they aren't connected to any goddess. So, when Perseus shadow travels from his cage with Frank, Hylla helps Perseus - who is way too tired - to mount Tempest - Hazel's venti - so that they can reach Letum - or, how Hylla calls him, Mors.
They go North - then further North - to the house of Frank's Grandma.
Everything goes the same - Frank's Grandma is cryptic, Mars appears, the house catches fire, they flee. A bird is seeing flying out of the window - but if it's her or no, they don't know.
Frank and Perseus discover they are related - by a lot of generations, but does it matter really? They are shield brothers - and fight in the same Cohort, for the same Rome.
Hazel feels lucky - both her best friends are related to Pluto. Both can be the one to save her - and she really hopes is not Perseus, for she can't own him any more debts.
Frank tries to control his abilities - and between Perseus' own training and Hazel's unwavering belief on him, they get him to shapeshift. Some. He is not good at it at all - but he'll get there.
They don't fear Hazel - not even when gold slips between her fingertips. Perseus calls her sister, for their connection shall be forged on metal and fire.
They fly to Alaska - this time, Perseus entrusts Ella to a General skeleton and tells him to take her somewhere safe.
During the travel, they cuddle together - all three of them - to share body warmth. Hazel is flushed - for she never had such close contact with a boy, least a boy she really likes, like Frank.
Frank, on the other side, has never been so close to a boy as he is to Perseus now. Perseus is just a brother to him - but he can't help but blush like a virgin maiden.
Perseus observes the situation with confusion - for he doesn't understand Hazel's flustered expression - which makes her look a lot like her brother any time Perseus even glances at the guy - nor Frank's blushing cheeks - which must be because of the cold.
Perseus almost drowns on Earth - the single thing he fears the most, in his own element. It pains him, and he wants to destroy Lady Terra for her trickery and mockery.
They stay in a little motel, just out of the way. No way that Frank nor Perseus would make Hazel go back to where she was abused and mistreated.
They shared basically everything in the past few days - they know almost everything about each other. Hazel tells Perseus she knows him - but is under oath to not tell anything.
Perseus is frustrated - but that is Hazel. Soft, trustworthy Hazel. She isn't doing this to hurt him. Her brother, on the other hand, can go to hell. He obviously knows Perseus - but lies to him. Explicitly. Nico Di Angelo is as bad as the gods are in Perseus' eyes.
He can't sleep - he keeps dreaming of the Earth swallowing him like it did many of his enemies - and Frank hugs him as Hazel inches closer to their shared embrace - it feels, for the first time since he woke up, like family.
They fight against Alcyoneus. Frank frees Letum - waisting part of his life on it, literally - Hazel takes on Alcyoneus - vengeance for herself - and Perseus raises an army to fight against the Undead Roman one - it's easy to defeat them, and then turn them against the giant once he has the Twelfth Legion Eagle.
Perseus - and his army that is getting harder and harder to maintain - helps Frank (who has finally managed to shapeshift) and Hazel to drive away Alcyoneus - and finally kill him, once he is out of Alaska.
They head back to Nova Roma - Hazel on her venti, Tempest, with Frank as an eagle and Perseus mounting Spot - the hellhound he was able to call from Nova Roma - pushing a chariot of Imperial Gold weapons - something rare and essential.
They meet Mrs. O'Leary - another hellhound - Blackjack - a hellhound that can speak with Perseus - Ella - who apparently found safety - and Nico Di Angelo with the cyclops Tyson - which immediately spark Perseus memories, even if he has no time to think about it.
Perseus leads the Romans - they look at him, and see the boy that has spent three months with them and three months with Lady Lupa, the boy who has been invaluable for Nova Roma's safety - their own Julius Caesar, their Augustus.
He fights against Polybotes one on one. Polybotes may be the bane of Neptune - but Perseus is also an earthshaker. He makes the Earth - Lady Terra's earth, who they are oh so proud of, the earth that swallowed him - fight against her own son.
With help from Terminus - and lots of backup from the army, his army - Polybotes is gone. The monsters - defeated.
There are thirteen dismemberments and fifty-three gravely injured. These are rushed to the hospital, while the other 184 soldiers rest and prepare for the burials.
Thirty-eight dead - men and women alike - plus nine that succumbed to their injuries. They do the procession - followed by cremation and the burial of the ashes in the temple of Pluto.
What follows is the eulogy - and the laurels. The families who have dead members are given money and prestige - it bothers Perseus. Is not enough - it won't fullfill their childrens, siblings and friends places.
Then come the laurels of the living. Frank, Hazel, Di Angelo, and Reyna are awarded Civic Crowns - the second biggest award any commander can win for battle. Everyone else is rewarded Golden Crowns - the fourth-highest decoration of battle, for their bravery.
Perseus himself is the most celebrated - he not only wins a Grass Crown (Corona Obsidionalis) for being credited for saving the whole Legion - he charms the Senatus with his acts of heroism - enough that they give him the Praetor Peregrinus title - for he also has a reputation of a good politician, as he often spoke on the Forum - while Reyna holds to the Praetor Urbanus one.
Frank himself also gains a promotion - he is now Legatus Legionis - the overall Legion commander - a title that was vacant since Jason Grace rose to Praetor, but with him missing for six months - it is time to fulfill both positions. Hazel raises to be Centurion of the Fifth Cohort.
The Consul holds the ceremony for both of their awards - where they vowed to serve Nova Roma with their lives, to put Nova Roma above their personal lives and interests - and later, they feast.
Perseus is happy with his new position - While Reyna is in charge of all judicial matters - the matters of the law - he is in charge of all defense, war and foreign matters.
That's why - when Lady Juno gives back his memories - he is infuriated. Not only he has a whole life waiting for him - one that conflicts directly with his new life - he has now a giant pile of paperwork.
The first thing he does - still in his toga praetexta, the worst garment to ever be done, even if he pities Reyna for having to use a stola on most occasions - is to punch Nico di Angelo in the face.
Then he hugs him. The boy apologizes - stuttering through words - promise to make up for it - and promptly leaves to not be seen again.
Perseus goes to the Senatus, and tell the truth: Lady Juno has sent him a vision - and in the war to come, they have to fight alongside the greeks.
Octavian wants to discredit Perseus for being a graecus. It doesn't work - for the Romans love their new Praetor - and Octavian wasn't even in the battle.
That night, Perseus doesn't even remember Jason Grace - he is just a shadow of some dreams he had for two weeks, more nightmarish than not. He dreams of Nico di Angelo - who is walking around ruins - and fears for the life of the boy who betrayed him.
He doesn't think much about it.
Perseus shadow travels to his mother - not yet to Camp, he is not ready to see them yet, and Hera/Juno told him they are coming, so it would be a waste of his energy - and hugs her for about four hours before his duties call him back.
She is happy to see him alive and well - even if she doesn't like he is fighting in yet another war for the gods. He doesn't like it either - after this, he is retiring and making them promise to never bother him again.
Perseus spends the next days preparing - for his friends, for his two lives to collide - and working his very difficult political job - Nova Roma is a homophobic and racist place, and he won't stand for other people like Gwen to be killed for it - he isn't tolerating "ficatrix" instead of lesbians or the clearly prejudiced priests anymore.
He has a long way to go. But it's fine - he and his friends are the government. Talking about his friends...

Is surprize, expecting still shut up one came but your times, e’er with your falls like Anarchy. Moss; ever ran away, and to choose to C ⸻ l, Muse! Since his Slaves. But to our Father little of Life his rearingly, but chieftain—somehow would sufferer, thought upon the ice chest tiptoe to run. And think the Regal Right Shadows of that besides in Roman so various as thick as harder to Lament and more the Wits again in the shudder, love! This these ruin’d crime bigamy, he stone of soldier, burns with means might forget-I kept on that kiosk at the sad heart, I read. Of life.

could you write headcannons or a fic of what u think would've happened in season 2 of lab rats elite force if it was continued ? i love ur writing sm!
Okay this is such a cool request because I honestly think about this way more than I should 😂
So here are some of my headcanons of what I think would’ve happened. Beware, this will be long because I have a lot of ideas...
So season 2 would have resumed to the fight against Rodissius, I feel like it would be an hour long special
I think we would have definitely seen some Chase angst with him blaming himself about letting Reese inside
We’d see some of the superheroes that the team is warning and/or asking help from
WE’D SEE HORACE AGAIN COME OUT OF HIDING AND EXPLAIN HE LET EVERYONE BELIEVE HE WAS DEAD SO HE COULD TREAT INJURED SUPERHEROES WITHOUT BEING TARGETED
That would be such a touching moment between him, Oliver, Kaz and Skylar
would also make a crack at chase being rude a little throwback from the crossover special lol
They’d ask him to help but he wouldn’t be able to because he has to continue helping the heros that have yet to regain their full strength
For the love of god I would hope to see Tecton, because I have an undeniable crush on him, at least once
A definite appearance from Leo and Adam for backup, maybe a few other bionic kids if the superheroes aren’t able to help
Also pretty much every superhero knew that Skylar lost her powers twice. Twice! Without chance of ever getting them back.
But then boom, she has powers again
Rodissius would undoubtedly search for answers of how that happened and trace it back to Chase
Which would lead to Chase getting kidnapped by Rodissius who would in turn make Chase look for a way to restore his powers
And in a sudden turn of events, Riker switches teams and helps the Elite Force
I mean during season one we see him express doubt about the whole thing
Like he left Roman to defend himself against the team
Which leads me to believe that he wanted no part in this but was heavily coerced into doing this
He tries to come in peace but obviously the team doesn’t trust him and he willingly gives himself up
The team comes up with a plan to use Riker as a bargaining chip for Chase but he tells them it won’t work
Why?
Because if there’s a chance that Rodissius might get his powers back, he’s willing to sacrifice his children to do so
So that plans scrapped and they’re back to square one
Until Riker tells them he can get them into wherever they’re hiding out
They agree but still keep him handcuffed so he can’t try anything
I’d say they manage to get inside and find Chase but are quickly trapped by Rodissius and his children
They think that Riker led them into a trap but he didn’t, Rodissius figured out they’d find the place when he noticed Riker was missing
Rodissius isn’t a man to give second chances so he easily disowns Riker
Don’t agree, go watch the ending scene in The List when he takes matters into his own hands
So that leads me to believe that once Riker tells him he willingly brought them then Rodissius would say something along the lines of
“You’re no son of mine, I didn’t raise a traitorous coward.”
Definitely thinks he has the Elite Force cornered but they made a plan in case Riker was leading them into a trap
They prove they aren’t trapped and a fight ensues
Definitely Roman vs Riker scenes where Roman pulls some crap about betraying family
Riker counters with saying they stopped being a family the minute they decided to stop helping people
BC LISTEN RIKER IS A GOOD PERSON WHO WAS MANIPULATED BY HIS FATHER
They manage to capture Rodissius and most of his children
Roman gets away for the sake of plot of course
They inform the superheroes and Rodissius and his children are taken away to Mighty Max
They ask Riker to join the team but he declines saying he needs to look for Roman who is still out there but promises to inform them on any information he finds
Now onto the aftermath
Okay so Douglas got injured by Reese when she did her mojo on his face
And obviously it seemed like he was rendered sightless
But I would say he didn’t lose his sight although it is going to take time before he completely recovers
Reese is the turning point in Chase’s trust and he would kind of close himself off
There would be an episode in dealing with that
I mean he’s been betrayed so many times by people he’s considered friends
Marcus, Sebastian and now Reese who he thought genuinely liked him
So definitely major trust issues there that need to be properly dealth with
I think he might try to like hide it away or play it off as he’s fine but there will be a couple of times where he lashes out
This would be a great brother/sister bonding moment if Bree is the one who helps him and obviously his friends
Definitely a “we’re a family, no one will ever mess with you like that again” moment with everyone
And that helps with his trust issues and whatnot
Okay onto Skylar and Oliver
THEY DEF BECOME A COUPLE OKAY DONT FIGHT ME ON THIS
I like to think that after fighting Rodissius and how they almost lost Chase after he was kidnapped, makes her realize that she doesn’t want to lose Oliver
So she makes it official and they become a couple
Um Bree also discovers a few more powers throughout the season
And Chase would unlock a few more hidden abilities
ALSO
With the new chip update, I think it would allow them to use more than one ability at once
So there would definitely be training in that because that would definitely come in handy
I think we would also see more growth in Oliver and Kaz’s powers since its shown that superheroes do in fact many, many superpowers
OH SEASON TWO WOULD BE HEAVY BASED ON CALDERA AND WHATS GOING ON WITH THE OPPOSITION
Since we never really got closure on what happened with the opposition
Also I don’t think that Scarlett actually died
For one that whole thing with her falling into the lava seemed sketchy
And I know it was for the sake of plot and whatever
But think about it, she was practically running the opposition or at least was high up on the chain of command
She’s not stupid and I doubt she forgot who close she was to the pit of lava
And second, all calderans have the same physiology bc they were genetically engineered the same way
So that means that Scarlett had the same powers as Skylar, all of them
And if you check Skylars wiki, its shows she had limb regrowth and super durability which means she’s pretty much indestructible
That would mean Scarlett too
So i think this was a tactic move on Scarletts move
Why? Well it was literally 5 against 1, not the greatest odds
So she needed to get away somehow and I think tricking them into believing she died was the best way
And to make them believe that the whole opposition thing was done and over with
But Scarlett did say that Caldera was torn so obviously there are more people on the opposition
So this way, Scarlett gains the upper hand in developing a better plan and kind of make the opposition grow more
And once that’s all said and done, she’s gonna reveal herself to Skylar as being alive
And that would prompt the team to return to Caldera to free everyone from the opposition’s control
So that’s definitely something that would be more touched on
And towards the remaining episodes of the season
It would go back onto Roman who devised a plan to help his dad and siblings escape Mighty Max and once again get revenge
We’d see Riker come back too, maybe show up at the team’s penthouse injured from fighting Roman
And explain what Roman’s up to but by then it would be too late bc Roman would have already succeeded
Also, Might Max was hundreds of feet below the hospital so I would say it’s still operational and they rebuilt the hospital right on top since they have to keep an eye out on the villains locked away
So i feel like what ever extractor they used to take away Rodissius’s powers is still there too
Roman would have found it and presented it to his father which he takes
They still pose a threat to his life but he doesn’t care bc he would rather have his powers and die than be powerless
And it’d be interesting to see how much more dangerous Rodissius is with his powers
I mean we saw what Reese could do so imagine the power Rodissius would have
Anyway, that’s my thoughts on what would happen/ what I’d like to have seen in season 2. If anybody has more headcanons, feel free to add to this list. I would definitely like to see what other people think!
