Hi, my name is Eden or Eddie. I'm an adult queer dumbass and my pronouns are she/they. I'm underburningstars on ao3 and instagram and these are my fics:

Remus' life has always been simple. He has good grades, friends he loves to death, a boy he's smitten with, a less than simple relationship with his father. Nothing was out of ordinary, just like every other high schooler.

But a school field trip changes that forever.

The world ends on a Monday morning. Because of course, it does. Every terrible thing that has ever happened to him has always been on Monday.

or, the marauders in a post-apocalyptic world

James Potter has an oral fixation.

It's not like Regulus wants to die, he doesn't. He may look depressed but he's not (he is) and neither is he suicidal (debatable). So no, Regulus doesn't want to die in an ugly cave. But he knows that it's inevitable. He can feel it on his skin, something in the back of his mind is telling him that the moment he steps into that cave, there's no getting out.

Or, Regulus goes Horcrux hunting and finds an unexpected partner.

𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐬 (jegulus, g rated)

James waits until he hears all his friend's breathing even out to take out the invisibility cloak and leaves the room. He doesn't bother taking the map because he already knows the way to his destination by heart. His heart knows where it belongs.

𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 (jegulus, e rated)

Regulus got kidnapped.

Again.

At least, it's not the worst one so far.

Actually, it might be the best.

𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 (jegulus, e rated)

He always knew that his parents would arrange his marriage with someone they deemed worthy.

What he didn't know was this marriage could have place for love too.

𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐦𝐞, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐟𝐟 (jegulus, e rated)

Regulus Black hates his life.

No, he’s not being dramatic. He absolutely abhors every second of his life. If he could, he would trade it for reading his favourite books for the very first time. He would read the books and die peacefully. Just thinking about it fills him with heavenly bliss. But unfortunately, he can’t do that. So he’s stuck living his stupid life where he has to go to another matchmaking ball. Again.

I think it's time to 📌PIN a new POST

Dama, 30 -ish, he/him I've been playing GW2 off and on since mid 2014 (end of LWS1.) I came back December 2022 after finally getting a PC that could handle games again. My main blog is @damazcuz and that's where I'll follow and interact from (so if you see a tiger in your notes. Hi.)

My art tag My Ao3 My Toyhou.se link (a few filled out profiles but not many!)

If you ever happen to see me running around feel free to say hello! (NA Server, damazcuz.6892) Below is a masterlist of my 20+ characters with info on each. Some don't have pictures, I'm working on it. This post contains some SotO spoilers!

Alba Moonseeker - he/him, 13. Commander-- RETIRED. Wayfinder-- EX. At the end of SotO, Alba will be forced to step DOWN from his titles and retire to the Isle of Reflection to live safely and comfortably with people who care about him! In the meantime he bears the world's burdens. Canach and Auruim are his current life partners. #alba

Auruim - he/him, 11. A close friend of Alba's before HoT, he was lost in the Breach of Maguuma and presumed dead for years. Actually became Mordremoth's champion, and after the dragon's death, continued leading his forces against the Pact to try and reclaim the jungle. Captured by one of Taimi's krewes shortly before Icebrood Saga, he was forcibly rehabilitated and put through an agonizing reformation process. Blamed Alba for his trauma for a long time. During SotO, had his arm torn off and fell into a demon coma. He's very much like a dog that doesn't know why it bites. #auruim

Bourbon - he/him, 35. Ex-aetherblade, ex-bandit, raised by Dredge in the far shiverpeaks. Set out on a quest of revenge after digging two graves, ended up commiserating with the man who ruined his life (Alba) and joining him. During SotO, saved Auruim from the demons that ate his arm, and became imprisoned in the Tower for a year or more waiting for him to heal. Re-lost his best friend during the waiting period. #bourbon

Aeris - she/her, 13. Ex-Priory, dishonorably and involuntarily discharged. She dreamed of a crystal dragon and awoke shortly after Alba. In all the excitement, her dream was misinterpreted, and she was sent to kill Kralkatorrik. Her assumed purpose consumed her, and she was fully obsessed with Kralk, with killing him, with putting a finish to her quest -- long after Alba had finished with Zhaitan, and Mordremoth. She came to see Alba as her rival, as making her look bad. After years of funneling Priory funds into trying to kill Kralk, she joined Alba's forces at Thunderhead Keep, where they failed to end things as they'd agreed upon. She went searching for answers and finally found the true meaning of her dream: she'd been meant to be Vlast's champion, but had never arrived. Her scion had died without ever knowing a mortal's love. As she mourned, Alba killed Kralkatorrik in her stead. She has crazy bad beef with him now, but can't keep herself from tagging along after him like an unwanted shadow. #aeris windkin

(More) mordrem:

Venasis - she/her, 23. Ex-Nightmare Court. Reformed mordrem. She was a cavalier in the mordrem army. Captured alongside Auruim and Darlio, plus two others, by Taimi's krewe. Venasis has become a pacifist, believing that she'd harmed too many as a courtier, and then plenty more as a mordrem. She sees Auru and Lio as her family, and cares deeply for the bond the three of them share. After Auruim vanishes during SotO, she leaves with Aeris to go travel. #venasis

Darlionia - he/him, 18. Ex-Vigil. Reformed mordrem. He was Auruim's first organically-made friend in the Vigil, one to protect him against being ganged up on. Witnessed Auruim's fall to Mordremoth and ran into the jungle, where he was hunted down and blighted to be Auru's knight. He has no memories prior to blighting, and died briefly during the process. After the Maguuma campaign, he began hearing the voices of Mordrem legends from the Mists, which scream at him near constantly. (Diarmid, Hareth, and Adryn.) He also hears Trahearne's voice, but doesn't recognize him. Darlio is incredibly aggressive and opposed to anything changing within the mordrem "pack" that Auru lead(s) as it's all he's ever known. At his revenant legends' urging, he sabotages Auruim in his reform progress and relationships to try to maintain the status quo between them. Meisi, Rytlock, and Bourbon all eventually work on helping him deal with his Mists voices. He plays the drums thanks to Bourbon. Abandoned during SotO when Auru vanishes, he turns to painkillers to sleep the screaming away. When Venasis leaves too, he has no one to steal pills for him and has to face his spiral. #darlio

Siraz - he/him, 19. Escaped mordrem-- he left the jungle dragon's territory through sheer force of will. He's a hater. He hated being part of a hivemind, and hated Auruim more for being a moron among morons. Made a home in the Horn of Maguuma, where he chased off and maimed adventurers for years, and eventually caught Mabon fucking with his traps. The two became close, and Mabon was his only link to the outside world for ages. Mid-way through SotO, after Mabon had suddenly stopped coming to see him, Siraz travelled to the Tower to confirm that he was dead. Stayed in the tower for a while, beat the shit out of recently-out-of-coma Auruim when they crossed paths. Gave Alba some free therapy. When Alba is forced to step down as Wayfinder after SotO, Siraz will be selected to take his place. Between missions, he pays visits to Alba and Canach's home on the Isle of Reflection to give them psychoanalysis/guidance. It's his hobby. #champion siraz

Alternate Realities?(?)

Laerling - they/them, 26. Jormag's treasured apprentice and… more? Trapped Alba and Auruim in a looping fractal for an unknown amount of time to prove a point about killing their beloved elder dragon. It's a whooooooole thing. #laerling

Kiva Sunchaser - he/him, 13. Alternate-world Alba who never became the Commander. The entire timeline shifted as a result. #kiva sunchaser

Nemeos - he/him, 13. Alternate-world Alba who had a really bad time and turned evil. His version of Aurene died at a botched Dragonstorm, and by the time he faced Soo-won alone, he was so badly corrupted, he was barely recognizable. Began maiming and killing anyone who dared to speak against him. His one-time friends and lovers (those that were able) fled his reach and formed a resistance group against him, seeking to end his reign of destruction and terror. Alba is briefly flung into Nemeos' version of Tyria after SotO ends. #nemeos

Iracynth - he/him, 13. The "Commander" in a Wizard-run fractal build to determine what would happen if Alba failed to kill Zhaitan. The world became overrun with Risen, the Pact crumbled to dust, firstborn Traenard (his version of Trahearne) died sooner, and everything went to hell in general. After years of being half-recognized as "that failed Commander" who "ruined the world," Iracynth's fractal crashed into another (at the beginning of SotO) and he escaped into Tyria proper. How is he coping with knowing his life was a fabrication, that his ultimate failure was just the first of another Commander's countless victories? Yes! Currently on the run trying to keep hidden from Astral Ward and see the REAL world. #iracynth

Roseate Canaries, Nightmare Court, Whispers, Podtwins

(this whole thing…)

Lacrimosen - he/him, 28. As a dreamer, he dreamt of Eldulis, and was introduced to him as a sapling. At this point, Eldulis was a recluse, and didn't look at people at all out of fear of hurting them. They became close regardless. When Eldulis left the Grove to join the Nightmare Court, Lacrimosen took it INCREDIBLY personally. At the advice of reclusive secondborn Soundless Lychen, "why don't you fuck off and build your own house then," Lacrimosen realized that the answer was to create a place where ALL Sylvari could prosper together. It became his goal to reunite dream and nightmare, to see the value in all parts of the experience of life, and then he and Eldulis could be together and happy. But dreams are hard to achieve, and within a few years, Lala was bemoaning to Lychen that he felt stuck in his job as Laranthir's second in command of the Pale Reavers. At Lychen's snapped advice "fuck off and make your own army then," Lala realized that the answer was to steal the infantry and armory. So he did! Half the Reavers and their gear was gone by morning, and Lacrimosen found them a place to set up camp. He used his networking skills to secure a base, and soon he had a castle, a sylvari sniper army that adored him, a long-suffering best friend and lover (Lychen will deny all of this) and an end goal in sight. The Roseate Canaries will take in any Sylvari or ally. They see value in the dream and nightmare, but don't see either as a full path. A lot of Soundless gravitate towards the Canaries, largely because they're very welcome there. #lacrimosen

Lychen - he/him, 32. A Soundless secondborn. The FIRST Soundless, if we're keeping track. He doesn't care if we do. Described by critics as as "apathetic at best" and "I liked him better before he spoke to me" and "that rude little thing." All of his advice to Lacrimosen over the years has been rude remarks and sarcasm. He sticks by Lala because he does like him (he will deny this) and he believes in his vision of uniting Sylvari-kind and ending the war between the two halves of their nature. #lychen

Eldulis - he/him, 32. One of the secondborn kidnapped by Inquest, he was among a group of 20 that were tortured. Four of them came home -- himself, Canach, and two others. What Eldulis was shown in the Inquest lab (the Eternal Alchemy) allowed something to peer into him in turn, and then out through him. He was forced by this to develop a unique ability refered to as mind peeling. Upon making eye contact with another person, he forces them to relive with him their most horrifying, agonizing experience of truth-- what this means varies from person to person, obviously, but it has always been traumatic and horrible. He was unable to control it for years. Faolain invited him to the Court before she was ousted from the Grove, but it wasn't until after he had befriended Lala that Eldulis chose to take her up on it. He learned to control his mind peeling by using it within the Court, and moved up quickly. He was one of Faolain's favorites, named the Duke of Torment, and was given his own camp in the Steamspurs- Lionsbane Copse. Years after Faolain's death, and after several replacements had been appointed and disposed of, Eldulis was chosen to take Faolain's seat. He traveled back to Twilight Arbor with Inoxiam to undergo his Dark Vigil, where he was poisoned by a dissenter and nearly died. Inoxiam snuck him out of the Arbor and tried to hail for help. Audden would be the one to save Eldulis, and then waypointed both of them to Lala's castle. After a few days recovery, Eldulis chose to return to the Court, where he would be cornered to be killed again-- this time, he called for help himself, and willingly left the Court. He and Inoxiam are figuring things out right now, during SotO. Post-SotO, they might accidentally kidnap Auruim briefly. #eldulis

Inoxiam - he/him, 15. An Order of Whispers agent stationed within the Nightmare Court. He's deep undercover; even his podtwin couldn't know why he was joining the Court, and so they've cut ties as saplings. Inoxiam has torn down many Nightmare camps from within-- he changes his name and identity with each move. His name at Lionsbane Copse is Datura; prior, he's been Natila, Lausica, and countless other identities. He was tortured at Twilight Arbor upon being identified (by a lucky guess) as a Whispers plant, and then disposed of in the woods. Rescued by his Whispers Keeper, he recovered for months at the Whispers HQ before being reassigned. To avoid Eldulis' truth-seeking mind peeling ability, he allows himself to disassociate into a foggy sub-ego; he becomes Datura, believes himself a true Courtier, and knows nothing of Inoxiam. He has no idea what he might be doing during his foggy hours as Datura, as Eldulis takes more interest in him. Eldulis corners him on the way to Twilight Arbor and peels him, sees his torture at the Arbor, and backs off, believing Inoxiam to have been "mistakenly accused." As they travel together, Inoxiam's feelings for Eldulis become complex; he sees sides of the Duke that others have never borne witness to, or not in decades at least. He wants to help Eldulis leave, to survive; he's not disloyal to his mission, but he doesn't want to succeed at killing Eldulis. By SotO, he is MIA from the Order of Whispers; they do not know where he is, and he may be presumed dead at the Arbor. He and Eldulis are getting to know one another more closely and exploring their feelings. And kidnapping Auruim for a bit. #inoxiam

Tryllwenn - he/him, 15. Inoxiam's podtwin. His Wyld Hunt called on him to protect Inoxiam as his knight. But as Inoxiam turned to Nightmare, Tryll could not stand by and say nothing. He confronted Inoxiam, who confirmed his fears were true, and the two parted ways on bad terms. Tryllwenn spent over a decade putting distance between himself and his twin-- they could always "feel" one another in the world, but it was easier to ignore from far away. Travelling Elona while Inoxiam was in Twilight Arbor, Tryllwenn felt the first flutter from his twin in years-- a feeling of absolute dread, pain, and fear as Inoxiam was tortured. By the time he came to in the sands, he was certain his twin must be dead. But he'd feel something again, over a year later, when Eldulis peeled Inoxiam's mind during their travels: that same feeling, with another layer of horror. Tryllwenn realized his twin was alive and in danger, and set out to find him. He's returned to Tyria, and is playing a game of warmer/colder with Inoxiam's emotional responses, always just a few steps behind finding him. His trail goes cold at Twilight Arbor… Tryll transitioned after Inoxiam left for the court, and would not be recognizable to his twin were they to cross paths. #tryllwenn

Audden - he/him, 8. Audden awoke as a strange case. He had no dream and no bond to the Tree-- he seemed Soundless from the start, and his perplexing origins led him to be prodded and studied by sylvari for countless months. Annnoyed and othered by sylvari who wanted to understand him, he came to believe he was not sylvari at all, but some parasite, like a cuckoo egg left to be hatched and fed by another mother. The fear that the Nightmare Court had planted him as a blight made him afraid to leave the Grove himself, for fear the Court would swoop in and pick him up. But he could not stay in the city; the intense Otherness he felt was unbearable, and so eventually he slipped out the back and tried to flee into the south. Having no street smarts, he was swiftly cornered by ne'er do wells, but saved by Arbiter Lychen of the Roseate Canaries. Lychen, realizing who he was, invited him back to the castle, where he quietly convinced Lacrimosen to let Audden stay as a a Soundless, but leave him alone. Lychen believes Audden is the true, untouched and natural form of a sylvari, without centaur or human influence, and Lacrimosen thinks he is sooooooooooooooo cute! Audden spends much of his time perusing the Canaries' massive library, safely exploring the world, and training with his rifle. #audden

Dead People (who won't stay dead)

Alixandira - she/her, 38. A devotee to Balthazar, she spent a decade after her friend was kidnapped by centaurs razing a path of hell after her. She became the Hero of Shaemoor, killing and blazing a trail in her god's name, praying without a doubt that Balthazar would reward her for piety. When she finally found her friend, long dead, she found she had lost her purpose. She continued to pray to Balthazar for months, deeply depressed and confused. Why did he fail to answer her? Why had he failed to reward what she had done? She determined that the gods had left Tyria, and that no one was listening-- so when news reached Tyria that Balthazar was around, she made a beeline for Elona to confront and kill her god. He found her attempt kind of funny, if a bit disrespectful, and banished her to the Mists without delay (literally minutes before Alba would arrive to be killed in The Departing.) She spent a solid decade trapped and wandering the Mists, seeking a path back out. When she re-emerged at last, much to the confusion of the humans who had summoned her, she found that she had some portion of Balthazar's power, torn off him when she'd been thrown into the Mists. She's lying low right now, figuring out the extent of her power. #alixandira

Chesha - she/her, dead at 23. Mute, used Tyrian sign language. The Aetherblade who recruited Bourbon, they became best friends. Feelings developed. Everything was a lot of fun until she died. She's been kickin it in the Mists. Eventually she WILL make it back to Tyria and tear Bourbon a new one for palling around with the Commander WHO KILLED HER. #chesha

Glaz - he/him, dead at 41. Bourbon's bandit mentor. He took the kid in at 14, despite his reservations about taking some teenage runaway into his camp. Died in a Vigil raid on the bandit camp. Years later, when the Aetherblades were first traveling the Mists, Glaz's voice stuck out to Bourbon, and he latched onto his rifle that his protege had kept all that time. In addition to the rifle, Glaz can possess Bourbon if he wants to-- he just doesn't, he thinks it would be rude. The fact that he can is enough to get most points across. Glaz is confiscated by the Astral Ward during SotO, for containment and safekeeping. Talks to Auruim from within his coma dream. When the rifle is returned, Glaz's spirit is gone. BUT WE'LL SEE HIM AGAIN SOMEDAY! (*Glaz does not exist in-game except as a rifle skin.) #glaz

Misc (Aka oh my god there's more?)

Thiiyfadora - she/her, 27. A progeny of Inquest parents, she was rescued from her lab and brought back to Rata Sum, where she was raised by her aunt Laz. Suffering physically from her treatment as a progeny, and with several undiagnosed learning disorders, Thiiyf never joined a school of study or a krewe. It was assumed she would never amount to being much more than a NEET. She spent much of her time mapping Rata Sum's hidden passages and back cooridors. When her primary map was confiscated, she felt her life was over-- but it opened the door to the world for her. Her intensely detailed map, which uncovered passages Rata Sum authorities had otherwise been unaware of, had led to her name making it to Trahearne's ear. He invited her on the Orr mission at 15, knowing that skilled cartographers would be needed to make the assault on Zhaitan a success. They struck Zhaitan down when Thiiyfa was 16, and she stayed by Alba's side through the Maguuma mission, at one point reaching Head Cartographer of the Pact. It was after the 43-day assault against Mordremoth, in the aftermath as Alba mourned everything he had lost, that Thiiyf had to step back, step down, step away. The experiments she'd gone through as a progeny had left her with certain physical degenerations-- she had a limited amount of time left to live. Could be a year, could be ten. She could go on adventuring with Alba, who she was realizing was a self-destructive person to be around, watching him wither and wilt, or she could go home and resolve some things. Thiiyfa chose to leave during Alba's lowest moment. She currently lives in Brisban with her aunt Laz, who retired from her Krewe to act as a caretaker. Though Thiiyf no longer adventures, she continued to make maps-- for fantasy books, and occasionally she's able to travel. Recently she visited Cantha with Snargle Goldclaw for promotion of his last book, which she drew the maps for. She and Alba haven't spoken in years. #thiiyf

Tego - AKA Gunpowder Gelatine - AKA Briza Silkburner -she/her, 40's. Briza was involved in (framed for) an explosion which murdered her warband. Realizing that things were Not looking good for her, she vanished and has been running for a solid 20+ years from the horrors. Worked as an assassin for Ash Legion for some years, under the Gunpowder name, until evidence from That Day started dropping into her lap from someone who knew she was Briza. Vanished again. Before the Zhaitan assault, she trained Thiiyfa as a mesmer, but once the past started chasing her again, she had to cut and run. She's changed her hair, her scarred face, her name and identity over and over, but someone is persistently trying to pin this tragedy to her like a badge of honor that she doesn't want to wear. By LWS4, she lives in Elona, in the middle of nowhere with Tryllwenn as an occasional companion. Aeris stays with them for a while, whilst processing her grief for Vlast. Tego is not one for long-term friendships anymore, but she doesn't turn people away either. She's made peace with what happened in her past, and at this point is ready for whatever is going to be served to her as comeuppance for it. #gunpowder gelatine

Kuiltro, Dog-of-Many - he/him, 47. A dog of many names. A bandit from Bourbon's old gang. He's also well known by Krytan authorities at this point, where he's known as Mongrel or Mutt. He takes great offense to being called either by someone he doesn't like. Kuiltro left the shiverpeaks gang several years after Bourbon was ousted from it, travelled to Cantha where he was briefly possessed by an oni, tried to slip through Lion's Arch for a quick trip, and was captured by Lionsguard and handed over to Seraph. Currently, Logan holds the chain to his yoke, and is putting him to work. Kuiltro wants to tear his face off so fucking bad. He HATES Bourbon though. He sees Bourbon as a volatile mess that can't help but get people killed-- he blames Bourbon for Glaz and Hypocrite, and knows enough about Bourbon's history since the old gang to blame him for Chesha and others. Eventually I will let these two meet up and punch each other to death. #dog of many

Tzuuya and Buulma - 33 and 23, she/they and he/her. A pair of siblings. Tzuuya (older, teal braids) had to step up and raise Buulma when their parents suddenly died in an accident, which limited her own horizons. They've tried hard not to resent him for it, but the two have been known to butt heads. Buulma grew up alternating between being dragged to Tzuuya's boring lectures (yawn) and running wild and free through the Metrica swamplands, picking up frogs and murellows and probably diseases from all the muck. Tzuuya was passed up by krewe after krewe because of their responsibility to the progeny she'd felt she had to raise. They took a position at the Priory as a recruitment officer in Rata Sum, but felt unfulfilled with that, and Buulma still took their focuse off the job more often than not. On Buulma's end, he resented that Tzuuya cared more about their career than him, and sought friendship in animals rather than asura. Eventually, Taimi recruited Tzuuya onto one of her krewes, studying dragon minions, and got Buulma as a package deal. Since the two began working together as a team, their relationship has solidified and strengthened; they respect each other a lot, even if there isn't a typical familial bond between the two of them. #tzuuya #buulma

mutuals marching pt 1.

(i've been wanting to do this in the spirit of the trend started by @broomsticks and highlight a few of my favorite mutuals on this site.

I keep my circle small, and as I've slowly stopped writing fanfic and my "content" has become less and less, the mutuals in my circle have also decreased, and left me with a small but mighty crew. I would like to highlight some of those folks on this last day of march. part 1

@maybebabyplease (you had to be green)-- my newest mutual and someone i am greatly enjoying doing business with. (though it has been a short arrangement so far, i am looking forward to many many many more months). discourse with you is unmatched and i am so thrilled to have you here (and be able to reap the benefits of your wealth of knowledge of OG fiction). My Rec: Em's microfics (QUEEN of compelling stories in so little words???) and surprisingly booksmart. not a pairing i typically go for ever (its moonseeker, what.) but this is so sweet and cute. and i'm a sucker for valentines day and regulus is perfect in this. the end.

@dykefever-- i exist in lauras sphere as someone who screams in their DMs and won't shut up, and i am thrilled she is still mutuals with me after all the nonsense I've shouted in her direction. I've said it before and I'll say it again that i cannot get enough of her writing-- she had me at "here we are, again" (perfect wolfstar, not a single coherent note), fucking ran me over with a truck at "beautiful boy" (the moonchaser of all moonchasers, the ancient text, i swear), obliterated my heart with "seasons in desire" (which to this day is still the only fic i have bookmarked on my AO3; and as someone who doesn't regularly read Dorlene, UGH) and its currently bringing me back to life with the shape and sound of god. do yourself a favor and check her out, but be prepared to have your world shattered.

similarly @steelycunt this is a boyband concert, i am front row, screaming, pulling my hair out over every word they write. Unbeatable. i would love to write half as good as ridi can one day when i grow up. but additionally, they are also my go to person for Cardboard Box Wet Noodle Accurate takes on Remus Lupin. Remus Lupin is just "some guy" and that is all. everything ridi writes is gold but if you need somewhere to start: in lieu of beaujolais was the first thing i read from them and i was SOLD. signed up, done for. and on issue of fever and delight is the only post-prank wolfstar fic i will ever read. RUN don't walk to their AO3 (also i would be silly if i didn't mention how much i appreciate ridis reading taste, and i actually first connected with them over the essay titled there is more than one way to love a book)

Okay, what do you think of the ship Remus/Regulus (moonseeker) and have you read/do you know any fanfic with this ship?

Platonically, they are the light of my day and the joy of my life. I love them with my whole heart. They are amazing and they deserve the world. I can also definitely see them having little crushes on each other that they then grow out of as they become friends. Like, they’re not fraternal best friends to me? They’re more the “I will flirt with you shamelessly but it doesn’t mean anything” type of best friends.

Romantically, I see the vision. I like where we’re going with this. I think they would be cute together, but honestly I prefer them as platonic. Hell, maybe even in a queerplatonic relationship. I would read the shit out of a queerplatonic moonwater fic now that I think about it honestly. Like, I like their dynamic and I think it would be nice to see them in some kind of relationship, I just don’t really see them as typical “boyfriends” you know?

As for fics, I don’t really know of any? I’ve seen a lot of hcs of them around, but I don’t think I’ve actually ever read/seen a fic on them, or at least not that I remember, but then again I haven’t exactly sought them out have I?

hi lovely!! when can we expect the sirius left alone in bed one shot? is that in june too? hope you’re doing well :) xx

hello darling!!!!!! the sirius ABANDONED and left in bed by the love of his life ALONE and probably CRYING and DEVASTATED and HEARTBROKEN oneshot will definitely come before the THH sequel (again, i really need to figure out a name. for both the sequel and the sirius oneshot lol). it's a bit scary because june is in like a week which is insane and the concept of time is actually beyond my comprehension.

i'm writing a moonseeker smut oneshot and a buy a bachelor oneshot at the moment but i'm finding it really hard to think about something that isn't THH lol so you know what? i'm gonna have a crack at it today and see where i get to. let's find out if i cba to write or if i just cba to write anything outside of chimaera and the wolf!!!!!

Chapter 5: The Distortion of Ozai

A few days later Ozai was on the terrace feeding peanuts to the crow, which finally decided to sit on his arm. He had a content smile on his face. The crow reminded him of his grandmother. Ozai felt happy and relaxed, but something still didn‘t feel right. Mya came and hugged him.

  M:        You look worried.

O:        I am. I had to think about Azula. My

girl is still in the looney bin. Such a waste.

M:        Why don‘t you write her a letter?

O:        That might be a good idea, actually...

  Ozai wrote:

  Dear Azula,

all days here are pleasantly sunny. I feel

good and am in good spirits. Please

don‘t hope for my return anytime soon. I

worry about you. Let go. You have

lots of talents, don‘t waste them out

of thirst for revenge. Go out and find

love, be merry and ignore your brother.

Your father Ozai

  We sealed the message and sent it to Zuko, who read it first before taking it to Azula:

  Azula was tied to the chair, when Zuko entered. He held open the scroll. Azulas eyes read the message and she looked abhorred.

  A:         This is a lie! Father would never write something as touchy feely as this.

Z:         It‘s his handwriting, clearly.

A:         They drugged him! They made him write this. This is not our father! We have a hidden code. All first words spell out the real message:

All good, don‘t worry, lots of love.

He would never say something like that. Something is wrong!

  Azula kept kicking and screaming.

  Zuko was in thoughts and asked timelord Mya to send in a new recording and to interrogate Azula.

  Azula was tied in a straightjacket and on her chair. She watched the door with contempt. Why did they want her to meet with her fathers captor? The door opened and a beautiful woman in a black uniform entered

  A:        Who are you?

M:        I am Mya.

A:         So you’ve taken my father?

M:        He came by his free choice, Azula.

A:         So did he fuck you already?

M:        You know your father. I have traveled numerous worlds, but he is special. Handsome, mean but in a very sexy way... Have you?

A:         What kind of question is that?

M:        (shrugs) Just wanted to get my facts straight. Tell me, would you take me seriously if I hadn’t fucked your father?

A:         You fucked him?!

M:        We’re all adults, Azula. I am honest with you. I’ll never treat you like a child, like your father does. You’re 19 and you know the ropes.

A:         Did you fuck my father?

M:        Are you jealous? It must be hard with a powerful, handsome dad like him. He’s cruel, but soo hot. No boy matches up to him. You idealize your father. But at the end of the day he’s just a man. A man who means a lot to me.

A:         So did you?

M:        Yes, I did. I will give you total honesty. He sent me with a message for you.

A:         He fucked hundreds of slaves at court, so don’t think you’re special.

M:        I don’t think I am. I hope not!

  Mya laughed and sat down facing Azula. Azula tried to move her hands, but panic crept into her eyes.

  A:         What’s wrong with me?

M:        I am a time bender, I am stronger than you or your father, my love. You can’t bend unless I permit you to. Now look at this.

  She held forth a tablet which showed Azula the footage of her father.

A:         What did you do to him?

M:        ???

A:         He looks... calm and relaxed... almost happy. You have drugged him!

M:        No, he’s just fine. He’s at peace, he spent his day training and teaching forms. We had tea and a nice day. We even ate fruit cakes and he taught his pet a new trick.

A:         This is not my father!

  Azula started to scream. The wardens sedated her and brought her away.

  Zuko heard about the scene and demanded to see the clip together with Aang, Katara, Sokka and Iroh.

  Z:         Azula said you drugged father?

M:        Look at the film yourself and tell me what you think.

Aang:   That face! He looks peaceful and even kind.

Iroh:     I haven’t seen him like this in years!

Sokka: He’s tanned and buff like if he was on a holiday!

Katara: He looks so... nice!

Z:         He looks happy. This can not be. I demand to see my father. And I want Azula to come along.

M:        It might be a painful experience for you two.

Z:         Why that?

M:        Ozai has changed very much - to the better! He‘s still mean, but his good side is stronger than his evil one. He reflects upon his actions and he is experiencing mercifulness, kindness and altruism. But seeing him with me might outrage you and Azula.

Z:.....    elaborate.

M:        He and I have been spending a lot of time together and we are very ... close.

Z: .       ...???

M:        Azula didn‘t take it very well...

Sokka: Wait... you‘re banging Ozai?

Aang:   I‘m sick...

Iroh:     He always had a great choice in women! I envy him for his luck!

Katara: He is your prisoner! You can‘t sleep around with him.

M:        Says who? It was part of his tantric healing therapy to unblock his heart and kundalini chakras. He is so fragmented that we celebrate tantric oneness to reassemble this Ozai puzzle until we have a pleasant picture. And it worked out fine!

Sokka: Can we please stop discussing Ozais sex life? I‘m going to puke.

M:        We successfully evened out his rough edges. He‘s a different man now.

Z:         It seems you have become prey to his manipulations. I want to see him and if I don’t like what I see I’ll put him back in his cell.

  A party with Zuko, Azula, Sokka and Katara joins me in the pod. Azula is contained in a straightjacket and force field. Aang can‘t join us as his place as avatar is within his world.

M:        You might all get sick upon arrival. Please puke into this bags, will you? Interdimensional travel gives you hard migraines.

Z:         Whatever it takes.

  A few seconds later we land. Sokka and Katara puke into the bags, Zuko looks sick but controls himself. Azula pukes into the bag I hold out for her.

  We exit the pod and walk to the house. Ozai is sitting on the terrace. He smiles and rises to greet us:

  O:        Daughter, it‘s good to see you. And my traitor son and the avatars two watertribe friends! You brought in reinforcement!

  Then everything goes superfast. Azula tears open her straightjacket and cries out: “You will not hurt father!!!” while pointing a strong lightning strike against me. Ozai jumps in front of me to take the hit. Azula screams: “Father!!!” At that moment I stop time. I tear Ozai away. The lightning has struck him just with it’s tip. I check on him, worried. He has a burn mark on his chest, but is not severely injured. I unblock his time.

  O:        Aaah...how is this possible? Why isn’t she in a force field?

M:        The force field takes a while to recalibrate in another dimension. This is why you didn’t wake in the pod... Then I unblock Zuko and Katara.

Z:         Father, are you alright?

O:        You’re just too soft, son. It burns like hell, but you know that well yourself...

Z:...

M:        Katara, do you have your healing water?

K:         It pains me to part with it for HIM. You apply it. I will not touch that man.

I put some of the healing water on his chest.

Then I unblock Sokka, who was a statue for 15 Min.

M:        What shall I do with Azula? The force field is on. If she uses her power and I open her time, she’ll fry herself.

I decide to move myself into her time.

M:        Don’t bend lightning or you’ll hurt yourself.

A:         What happened?

M:        You’re in a cage now. Your father tried to save me and took your hit.

  Azula looked horrified and started to cry. She totally broke down.

  M:        Don’t worry my dear, he‘s fine. I understand you well. I was just like you when I was young. He’ll recover, he’s strong. My poor love Ozai... I only wish for him a life without stressful women, but I think he just has bad karma...

Azula had to laugh. It wasn’t a mean, but a real albeit cynic laugh.

  A:         He‘ll never forgive me for this.

M:        He loves you. His love was buried, but now it‘s exposed. He‘s learning new ways, and so will you.

A:         You love him. I hear it in your voice.

M:        You love him more than I ever could. Let our love for him be stronger than all obstacles. I am reaching out my hand to you. Will you take it?

A:         Do I have a choice?

M:        You always have a choice.

  I held her hand.

  I took us forward in time to catch up with the others.

  M:        And we’re back. You guys didn’t fight in the meantime, I’m proud of you all. Azula and I had a good talk. I think we’re OK here.

Zuko:    I have seen enough. I did not agree to send Ozai on a beach holiday. He will return with us to his cell at once.

M:        Firelord Zuko, please honor our agreement. My world, my methods.

Z:         No, he is a prisoner, not a prince in a sunny beach exile.

I went to Ozai and held him. Tears flowing down my cheeks.

O:        I will be alright, love. I love you. But you need to forget me.

He embraced me and kissed my head.

M:        Ozai, please forgive me. I love you, please never ever doubt that, even if everything falls apart. I told you that I am a person with flaws, just like you are. Please, forgive me. All I did and all I have to do now was just because I love you. Please forgive me. I’ll always be yours and yours alone.

  Zuko and Azula looked alarmed. Katara was heartbroken but ready to fight. Sokka had his boomerang ready to strike.

  I held Ozai tight, closed my tearfilled eyes and said:

  “Computer, stop simulation.”

  One by one the elements of reality disappeared. The house, the pool, the terracotta tiling of the terrace. The birds, the cats. At the end they were all in a gigantic empty glistening white and completely empty hall. Finally, Mya disappeared pixel by pixel. Ozai screamed Nooo and stood there shattered in an empty embrace. A computer voice and pleasant background music appeared: “Welcome back to the simulation bay of the starship Vega Eternity. You will be joined shortly by our commanding officer and acting timelord of the Vega Multiverse Mya Moonseeker. Please relax and breathe in and out if you experience anxiety or sense of loss. This is very normal after such an immersive therapy session. We sincerely wish you betterment. May you rise up and dwell with the angels. Enjoy your stay with us, live long and prosper!”

  Far away a tiny door opened and a small figure in a black uniform appeared. About thirty soldiers in white uniforms accompanied the figure.

The soldiers created a cordon in which the figure approached. It was Mya. She looked different. She seemed very powerful and in control. But when she arrived, they saw that she had been crying. Her voice was shaky.

  M:        Sorry for this confusion. I need to apologize to all of you. Zuko, Ozai never left this cell. I never broke my promise to you and the court. He was and is confined under maximum security as you can see. This ship is manned with ten thousand soldiers under my command. All of our moves are recorded.

And Ozai, I am deeply sorry for all that I did to you. My love for you is true. This is a healing chamber. We use it to heal illnesses of the mind, broken hearts, anger issues and to cultivate empathy and love.

Zuko:    Where are we?

M:        This ship travels the worlds and times to fix temporal anomalies. Will you permit all of us to exit this hall and take a quick tour of my vessel?

Zuko:    Yes, ...

M:        Ozai, Zuko, Azula, please don’t firebend or you’ll be immediately executed by our security system. Katara, waterbending will result in a very nasty alarm going off. So please no bending, ok?

They moved through a long hallway with adjacent hallways and chambers. Then they passed a gigantic open hall, itself as big as the center of Ba Sing Se, full of lightened windows in which thousands of pods were flying from one point to the other. They had never seen anything like that.

Another door opened and they all entered a broad passage. Bird noises were playing, they passed a singing janitor robot.

  At the end of the hallway they arrived at a dining hall with a huge window outside which several galaxies were visible. A view of open space. Several soldiers were present in the room entering, leaving or serving tea.

  M:        We are in deep space at the rim of two touching universes which are called the Vega multiverse. Your world is a habitated planet in one galaxy in the universe on the other side, we are now in my universe near my home galaxy and planet. The shining gap there is the wormhole between both galaxies. The blue dot there is my home enlarged. Please. Sit down, drink this marvellous white tea and listen.

  Planets, which contain intelligent life at the same time, are very rare in the multiverse. Millions of years ago, our universes collided and created the Vega multiverse. Two universes which did partially melt together. Your civilizations and the ones of this universe are closely interdependent. Each of the universes contain thousands of galaxies in which you have again thousands of star systems. Our cluster of galaxies is called Laniakea.  Millions of years ago, this collision of Laniakea with your universe threw many galaxies from one universe to the other which means that they still are entangled on a quantum mechanical level with the other original universe. Bluntly said, they switched places. We can travel from one to the other through a wormhole.

  My home planet is called Earth. Earth is entangled with your world. In three weeks, a very big asteroid will appear over your planet and within a year will be sucked into its atmosphere. The impact will burn your whole planet. All life will perish. As my planet is closely entangled with yours, it will cease to exist at the same time. We are powerful. We have big space ships, but all our vessels are too heavy to land on an asteroid without breaking it into small pieces. The Asteriod we are talking about is as big as the whole fire nation, but its brittle and icy with huge parts of iron ore in its center. If it breaks, its parts will still destroy the planet. We need to slowly melt it away during several weeks until it is small enough to be smashed into tiny pieces. The only thing light and yet powerful enough to do something like that are firebenders, waterbenders and earthbenders.

  The audience was mindblown, only Ozai seemed unimpressed.

  M:        And this is why I need the best benders of your world to save both our worlds. If you decline to help, we‘ll all die. Even time itself will stop. I am asking a lot of you. And instead of rotting in a jail and looney bin these two firestarters could help to save two worlds and vindicate themselves.

Z:         How do I know you’re telling the truth?

M:        You will see the asteroid in about three weeks in the night sky above the water tribes northern pole. Please go there and see for yourself and in the meantime let me work with Ozai.

Katara: I know where we can go to see if anything of this is true.

Sokka: We’ll meet up with the northern water tribes. And if you’re lying we’ll know that you’re a fraud.

Zuko had a gloomy look on his face.

  They left the presentation room and proceeded to the pod bay as Zuko had wished to depart. The pod bay was a platform at the edge of the inner open core of the ship where pods were landing and taking off.

  M:        So shall we meet in three weeks then at the noth pole? I could get far with Ozai in these three weeks.

Z:         I will not allow father to stay here. You command 10000 men and you have carnal relations with my father who is a state enemy. I will not risk him to take over your ship and use it to conquer back the Fire Nation. He will come with me.

M:        Please, Firelord Zuko, respect the legal ruling. If you want him back, bring a court order and I will comply.

Z:         I need no court ruling. I am the Firelord, I decide.

O:        Finally you’re owning up to your crown. I told you about this, remember? Your word is law. Finally one lesson you learnt from me. I am proud of you, son. Mya, I love you, but my place is with my people. I will think of you every waking moment, my love. And in my dreams too.

M:        You can’t just leave, Ozai. I love you, I need you here, by my side.

Z:         You should have a better choice in lovers. But don’t fret, I have a gift for you. You can keep my sister instead. I heard she also likes girls...

A:         Zuko! You can’t do this! Father!

O:        Azula, I am sorry, my hands are bound. I will think of you both, my dear girls. Azula, I am so sorry, but seize the chance. You’re young and fierce, you’ll thrive on these stars! Make your mark, make me proud like always!

Z:         ??? I never saw you being so... supportive, kind and ... emotional.

O:        People can change, son.
