pertaining to the idea of tenax’s band of strays i do think it’s touching that the kids are the ones who saved him and waited outside the door to make sure he’s okay. for all tenax claims to be harsh and cruel it’s a fine indicator of his character that the kids won’t rest without him and are there every time he’s in danger.

#AND I CAN’T FUCKING BELIEVE I HAD THEM STEALING THEIR WAY OMTO #THE PLATFORMS WHAT DO YOU MEANNNNNNN oh i love being right #also that all the kids are there watching when he kills the guy whose name i forget because i simply cannot hold names in my brain but the #evil one. who i was like oh thank GOD he died i was so sick of this plot he kept killing everyone & i screeched when he almost got claudia #something something calla saying ‘you’re not a child anymore’ about tenax’s cruelty to the brothers (which in my twisted narratives. sorry.#there’s only one scorpus who KNEW the child tenax was. the child he’s still healing and caring for. all of the children whose eyes he looks #into and sees a hurt that’s just like his? the children tenax saved whether he’ll admit it or not? scorpus saved him. and that’s all)#(also this is a terrible thing to say i knew it about but like. oh i knew it about the master of the house. tenax making sure NO ONE #touches the kids or does anything with them really but Claudia and him—the people he trusts which also now includes calla but he makes sure #it’s someone he knows. also do we have a claudia backstory??? or would i just get to invent a reason why she’s there and what she’s doing #and why she’s so loyal to tenax. did she also see the child he was and that’s why she’s so protective of him but also why she gets along #with calla so well because the two of them see how he’s festered in that. like calla fully has the rights here i think she should rip him a #new one for his lack of decency and good qualities he can be corrupt without being cruel y’know. and he should be called out on his #peter pan ass behavior you’re not a child!! there are such consequences!!! dream a little bigger a little kinder!!! change the dream you #made up with scorpus when you were a young angry teenager and make it fit who you are NOW. the life you want NOW not the life you thought #you should have & deserved. what did you learn from growing up. what changed. what do you need now & what do you want. not the same things #and i too wish that this was 30k and covered their entire backstory #BUT IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION of i also need it to be 100k canon-divergent (presumably. i’m only through episode eight. but i can’t imagine #that they will follow the plot EYE would write because they need to have a second season & you can’t have that without conflict which means #titus overthrown scorpus is gonna die metaphorically or literally etc etc the gold faction in shambles but technically triumphant with #domitian on the throne and tenax in a position of patrician power accepted into their society but still not equal and happy. whereas lmao #domitian you’re getting shipped off to some other city because your plot to overthrow titus failed and yet he is merciful enough he won’t #kill you he just sends you and hermes together (at which point over the months long journey you forgive and re-learn each other bc titus #didn’t know of the betrayal he thought it would be kind to send your (ex-)lover with you. do we see how this works perfectly) & tenax falls #back into the underworld where he now knows he belongs because blood is everything except when it isn’t. when he realizes what he has is #worth more. no matter if the blood he has is tainted or patrician the blood oath he swore with scorpus iron on their tongues means more.#calla’s split lip defending him and their winnings. kwaame’s blood on the hard packed sand of the arena fighting to stay alive and to come #home to them. the fire in aura’s cheeks when she laughs at ivy. SURPRISEEEE EVERY NARRATIVE IS A FOUND FAMILY I GUESS IT SPRUNG ON ME TOO.#and tenax doesn’t mind a little dirt and bribery every now and then. doesn’t aspire to former heights and shining brilliant out of shadows.#the gaudiness of gold &flash of fools’ dreams. YES CAN I FINALLY PLS GET MY BLACK FACTION TO REPLACE THE ILL-FATED GOLD THATLL COLLAPSE W/D
