Another bout of shenanigans from yours truly

[t1oui]

i swear i've written this before but i can't find it anywhere SO

jake mason who falls in love with michael yew at the worst time. there's a war on, and people are dying, and he just can't control his feelings. michael's bad with words, but jake knows his feelings are reciprocated.

then michael's gone.

it happens fast. jake never gets to say goodbye. there's no body. he holds out hope that michael survived, just a little sliver of it, even long after the logical part of his brain has accepted the truth.

drew tanaka who looks up to a big sister who made the wrong choice. there's a war on, and drew clings to silena like her life depends on it. after silena's boyfriend dies, something changes about her, something deep down past the pain of losing a loved one, and drew doesn't know what to say, so she doesn't say anything at all. now, she thinks, maybe she could've stopped what happened next.

silena dies on a street in manhattan, and people call her a traitor. drew does, too, if only to protect herself. she looks up and sees herself in will solace, even younger than she is, suddenly a leader just like her.

drew takes all her fear and anger and sadness and puts it into ruling the aphrodite cabin because if she doesn't, she'll fall apart, and she can't do that.

will solace who loses both of his protectors in a year. there’s a war coming, and lee insists he’ll take care of them. will trusts him just like he always has.

lee doesn’t make it out of the maze.

but as much as that hurts it’s okay, because michael’s still around… until he isn’t. because then the war’s right on top of them, and a bridge collapses with michael on it. they never find a body. will’s too busy with his new duties as head counselor of the apollo cabin to get sorry about seeing his brother again.

when jake gets hurt, will solace, still only fifteen years old, stops by to check on him. after he's gone, drew tanaka comes and sits by jake's bed and tells him about her day. it's mostly complaints about her siblings and other campers and the stoll brothers, but she's funny, and she makes jake feel less alone.

jake expects it to stop when he gets better, but that first day he's able to get up and go out on the dock by himself, will and drew appear next to him. will insists on a check-up, and drew tells him that she thinks malcolm pace and connor stoll would like each other if only they could pull their heads out of their asses, and jake starts to smile like he hasn't since michael died.

jake's an old relic, the last surviving member of his friend group, but drew and will follow him around like ducklings. drew complains, and will gestures wildly through talks about healing and injury prevention and that cute hades boy. for some unknown reason they care about him, and jake couldn’t be more thankful.

for a while, despite their shared use of jake as a surrogate older brother, will and drew don’t get along. they’re terribly alike, jake thinks. maybe that’s why they dislike each other. but then one day when they’re following jake around as they do, drew complaining as always, it happens. drew’s going on and on about something jake’s sister nyssa did, and will howls with laughter halfway through a sentence. when drew looks at him incredulously he goes, “oh my gods. you like her, don’t you?” and drew stares at him slack-jawed before smacking him on the shoulder and screaming at him for saying such a thing. suddenly the two of them talk, and jake knows that will is right about drew’s crush.

jake hopes that somewhere, somehow, silena and lee and michael can see their siblings, can see how far they’ve come. maybe charlie is with them, watching jake. he hopes he’s making them proud.

at a campfire one night jake watches nyssa sit down next to drew and he meets will’s eyes across the circle. drew insists there’s nothing going on between them. “i thought you were a daughter of aphrodite,” will says, and as always drew huffs and pretends she didn’t hear him.

when malcolm and connor finally get together, drew drags will into the hephaestus cabin and spends about half an hour telling him and jake that she was right. will interrupts and says that according to nico who saw nyssa and drew behind the demeter cabin he was right too, and drew smacks him and leaves. “i’m still right,” will says, and he wanders off after drew.

jake has lost everyone, but he’s found another family. they’ll never replace his old one, but he’s finally begun to realize that they don’t need to.

Au i had for a little while where SQ goes to prison with Mr Curtain

the power dynamics shift because mr curtain is extremely punchable and there is exactly one guy who doesn’t want him to get punched.

SQ doesn’t really care because it’s not that different than the institute

[IDs copied in alt text: six separate images of SQ and mr curtain in all of them they are wearing prison uniforms. sq has his top button undone and mr curtain is wearing long sleeve shirt underneath.

a drawing where mr curtain stands angrily crossing his arms, looking murderous, but sq stands behind him with a pleasant look on his face. a note reads “the opposite of scary dog privilege. nice dog privilege”

a drawing of where mr curtain appears to be sitting in sq’s lap, he looks a bit uncomfortable and embarrassed, sq is looking at him sympathetically. sq is saying “i know you don’t like that you need it, but i’ll still catch you.” mr curtain is noted “just woke up in SQ’s arms”

a drawing of sq standing menacingly in front of a beat up mr curtain, who is looking slightly over his shoulder with a black eye. sq looks mad and is holding one arm out protectively. by the folds of sq’s shirt you can tell mr curtain is holding onto the back of it. sq is saying “hey. hands off.” mr curtain is noted “got beat up for being a nuisance”

a drawing of sq patching up mr curtain’s arm, he is crying but his face is angry. mr curtain looks almost ashamed and is shrinking in on himself. sq is noted “upset & angry” and is saying “you are SUCH an IDIOT!” such and idiot are underlined

a drawing of sq in a tank top, his muscles are more obvious than in his baggy t shirt and he is wearing a headband that pushes back his hair from mid forehead. he is sweaty and is noted “he works out”. someone off screen says “SQ?” and he responds “yeah? what do you need?”

a drawing of sq looking cheekily off to the side and shrugging. he is saying “IDK i don’t remember. isn’t that right Mr Curtain?” under the speech bubble is an “URK-” sound effect.]

Gonna blorbo this up tbh. Adding a read below cuz i got carried away, but click it if you want to read about my gajeel and levy headcannons

Levy phone: basic case, plain color probably probably blue or yellow, basic design at most, she likes when she can easily match it to outfits. Her background used to be team shadowgear, but became Lily when she and Gajeel started dating (sg is still her lockscreen). She 100% fills in as much of everyone's contact details as she can, shes got middle names, work numbers, emails, shes got everything.

Gajeel phone: he does not use a case for a worringly long time until Levy gets him one as a gift and he refuses to take it off his phone. He has a picture of Lily and Levy cuddled up as his background. He has one saved contact, Levy, the rest are just messages with phone numbers, when he gets a new phone he loses his ability to text anyone until they text him. Also his phone is 100% cracked.

Levy laptop: She has a case on it that she put a few stickers on. All of her files are neatly sorted into specific folders. Her keyboard is covered in crumbs from snacking while she works.

Gajeel laptop: he doesn't have one, he has a desktop, its old and barely works, refuses to get a new one and says he won't get a new one til this one stops working as he MacGyvers a fix to its latest issue.

Levy backpack: She keeps it really neat and also it weighs like 20 pounds because she keeps so many books on it. Its a cute canvas bag and she absolutely adores it. She has a little tuxedo cat charm.

Gajeel backpack: falling apart, bought the cheapest backpack he could find and used it for years, the zipper opens all the time, theres a hole thats been patched up with duct tape. He chewed through the little buckle straps it came with when he was bored.

Levy car: old as shit, shes spent more money on repairs than it would cost to get a better car, but this is her car! She doesn't want to learn a new one! The ac doesn't work and one of the windows wont go up if you put it down, but its her car. Theres a layer of trash on the passenger seat floor and thirty half empty waterbottles tossed in the back seat to make room in her cup holder for a fun drink.

Gajeel car: surprisingly nice, definitely second hand and a little janky, but he keeps it clean and working comfortably. His main motivation is that he gets motion sick if he isn't driving, but he doesn't want to tell people that. So he figures if his car is just decent enough people will be willing to let him drive when they carpool.

i think we as a society need to use cell phones/laptops/cars/backpacks to flesh out characters
