Some contemplations on the matador au...sorry, I'm like a child with a new toy 😭(I've not abandoned my other stuff btw obv but at certain point, it gets a bit hard to build an AU cause I'm like, I have so many ideas but idk how to post them in a cohesive way???? So it's a bit more relaxing and fun to play with a new one for a bit bcs everything is new :) )

This au mostly exists bcs I rly like drawing ornate things, such as the matador costume. But I've been thinking a lot lately abt the actual content of it. Vettonso(of course.) I have a few ideas abt the actual avenue of it. I have one main one, and then two jokey ones.

○

The first(and actual) one would be the original thought that both of them are matadors. And Seb retires after injury(btw jfc bullfighting injuries are such body horror. The one guy I was researching was impaled in the skull and lost his eye and some of his hearing. But he came back to bullfighting, and at some point was impaled in the chest and injured his lung. And still kept competing I think??? Somehow there's athletes more insane than f1 drivers, shocking, I know.)

I think Fernando would be renowed for his resilience and Seb for his agility. And both for their exceptional showmanship and flair 🤭 There's actually more than just matadors! Seb would prob start off as Fernando's assistant, a banderillero(kind of an assistant to the matador. They stick these flag things in the bull, and have to be super agile and fast.) And then becomes a matador in his own right(surpassing Fernando's achievements????) But as mentioned, gets a pretty bad injury and has to retire. But he still feels a lot of admiration and respect for Nando and comes to watch his matches. And Fernando *always* dedicates his kill to Seb, throwing his hat at him, hoping he'll one day come back. Seb is like: "what do I do with this box of hats..." Fernando is crying in the corner bcs he's lost a lot of his motivation.

It's really !!!!! to think about their suit designs and the evolution of it. They're pretty united when Seb is Fernando's assistant(Nando wearing light blue with gold, Seb darker blue with silver.) And then Seb becomes a matador(dark blue and gold), and Fernando suddenly changes his suit to bright red(he is upset, he is seeing red, haha get the bull joke?) Seb would start wearing that circa 2010 bull hat after successful matches, thus cementing himself as the "red bull" and Fernando, his rival, "bull-killer." They're not directly competing, but thematically they are. In traditional bull matches, there's 3 matadors vs 6 bulls. So vettonso are often in the same matches, indirectly competing against each other, but fighting to have the most flair and success. Fernando sees defeating Seb to be just as important as defeating the actual bull. He slays the bull, and then conquers the other.

Sobbing to imagine Fernando abandon his hatred for Seb after witnessing him getting injured. Cradling his bloody, torn up body. Pressing his hat to Seb's chest, soaking up his blood with his own cape. By that point, Seb had had a dark green suit. And ever since he retired, Fernando now wears the same shade, as an homage to his once great rival, dedicating every kill that Seb never got to have to the man himself.

Hahaha okay silly versions:

Two is just bullfighter!Fernando being driver Seb's wag 😭

Everyone notes the irony of him being a Red Bull driver who constantly has bull iconography(2010 bull hat, petting the bull on his car, "riding" the bull at the end of 2012, etc.) dating a man who kills bulls for a living. But it turns out Fernando is the only one who can tame the bull 🤭, and also Seb is the only bull he can't bring himself to kill. Seb makes a helmet for the Spanish gp based on the embroidery of Fernando's suit. Fernando tries to incorporate Seb's logo and rbr logo somewhere on his cape. They share a trophy shelf 🥰 and Fernando brings one of his hats to the Spanish gp to publicly bestow upon Seb.

The third is so stupid 😭 Basically: Seb becomes the human physical manifestation of one of the bulls Fernando is meant to kill, and tries to seduce him into leaving the bullfighter life. So he's a bull-boy: tails, ears, horns and all 😏 So Fernando comes home from a match, and Seb is there, kneeling, when he opens his front door. Fernando now must conquer a bull in a *different* way. Bull-boy out who is out to ruin your livelihood by seductively splaying himself across every surface in your house and encouraging you to tug on his septum ring, and forget that you have a match to go to this weekend, and wouldn't you rather enjoy a bull rather than kill one?

Hi, it's me again and I have questions about Sun!Raph

So the solar system, does he think of the planets as his children or soemthing else? The planets were pulled in by the sun's gravity when it was created so how did Raph get the planets with him? Was it a gift from Mikey?

Also how does Raph think of the humans on Earth? Since they harm the planet is he upset with them? Does he try to help Earth? What does he think of Astronaut!April? (If that is the canon you are going for her)

Since the Sun is a star how does that affect his relationship with Leo? Is Raph only in charge of our sun? Did Leo create Raph in a way?

Oof oh boy, there's a lot here that I didn't even think about JDHDJS

"Does Sun!Raph think of the planets as his children?"

I think all the boys kinda of view the planets as their children in a way, or maybe like their old friends. Raph is definitely the mama of the group tho, he tends to all of them and makes sure everyone is warm uwu

"The planets were pulled in by the Sun's gravity when it was created, so how did Raph get the planets with him?"

Honestly I have no idea fjdbdjsjqo if anything it prolly just ;;; happened and he prolly accepted them as his own 🤔🤔

"How does Raph think of the humans on earth? Since they harm the planet, is he upset with them?"

Raph loves the humans, all the boys love the life on earth! While it's obviously upsetting to them that lots of ppl [and big corporations kfjdje] hurt the planet, that doesn't detract from the love they have for the life on earth—the humans, animals, plants, everything.

"What does he think of Astronaut!April?"

Tbh I think the boys are mad confused when they meet April for the first time KFBDJSJAI LIKE WHO THE HELL ARE YOU. April's in the same boat LMAO

"Since the Sun is a star, how does that affect his relationship with Leo?"

Raph and Leo have a very strong connection in that they're one in the same. Leo didn't create Raph I don't think, Raph is special. Raph is his own entity while being able to have a connection with Leo that he can't with the other boys.

went grocery shopping with my roommate today and they started chatting with the lady scanning their food about how i eat super unhealthy or w/e bc they eat mostly veggies & can't eat a lot of carbs/sugar, but it just frustrates me to no end like they'll go "no judgement!" but then talk abt how the stuff i eat is really carb and sugar heavy as if i even buy that many groceries or eat that much in general... i swear my mom judged me less on what i was eating than this and she was part of the reason i developed an eating disorder in the first place. where i am at rn w/ whatever issue i'm having wrt food is that i am either going to eat some canned soup or i'm not going to eat at all and honestly i would rather eat a canned soup! thanks for caring!

is that not a weird thing to say about someone especially to a stranger or am i just fucking stupid

[waloeders]

thinkin abt how sussy is initially so closed off n hesitant to be genuinely vulnerable with me, instead acting all snarky n sometimes even faking being vulnerable (he has issues ok). but slowly.. he starts to open up more n has moments of genuineness. affection even.

i think bc hes already done a lot of self work while stuck w frey, this half of him that gets stuck with me/jupe is a lot more 'canonically' ooc. partly cuz of him learnin abt not being rheddhig-made like he thought (n therefore is his mission even worth it? is it even his? why is he doing this for ppl he doesnt know?) and having an identity crisis over it. partly bc im now the 2nd person to treat him like a person and not just a weapon.

but mainly bc hes having such a weird fucking time. how is he even surviving while being stuck with a non tanta?? how is jupe (a non tanta) surviving it? 😭 why is everyone from earth Like That???? what the fuck happened to rheddah while he was gone? its been like a thousand yrs. how is he even gonna get out of this situation?

like realistically he'd have to somehow convince jupe to get strong enough to beat (+maybe kill??) frey so that he can reabsorb the other half of him and escape? bc theres no way hes gonna b able to escape if frey is there, she'd just capture him again. and hes unlikely (read: never) going to be able to convince jupe of that so um. whats the plan sussy? what is the plan here?

trying to get into his mindset is fascinating fr the man (demon) is going through it 💔
