#phil's trophy travels

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Taking a break from writing striped hat so I can ramble about fae AU's again they're one of my fav things ever.

Tags: DSBI, dark Techno, dark Phil, dark Kristin, mentioned Kristin, kidnapping, impersonation, usual fae stuff tbh, its like 600 words of me rambling about fic ideas below the cut, read more if thats your jam.

Idk if I've mentioned it before but I've been toying with the concept that fae take the face of the first human they've tricked and then it slowly morphs into something thats more their own.

This isn't rooted in any actual folklore as far as I'm aware but I like the vibe it adds. It adds another layer of terror to every interaction with them. Each time you come across a fae, you're looking into the eyes of their first victim.

Maybe they tweak it a bit here and there so they can lure other humans better but I like to think it stays mostly the same. It also adds another layer to things from the fae's perspective as well.

A fae close to their family might deliberately pick out and push a human into a deal if they think it'll make them look similar to their other families faces.

It can also add a layer where fae bloodlines might literally just prey upon entire human families purely for aesthetics. The worst part is a human might not even know that thats the case, they might just chalk it up to a generational curse or bad luck.

Something like this wouldn't apply to four seasons since they werent born fae and thus already had their faces but that wouldn't apply to Phil. The dude they see could genuinely just be the face of some unlucky traveller centuries ago.

These faces could also be used as lures for other humans who might've known the tricked person before. All the fae has to do is look a little scuffed up and beg for help in a hidden circle and they've got a steady supply of victims.

It also means that if any of the humans they steal do get out somehow, the people they knew might turn away from them and assume a fae is tricking them.

I know I'm rambling but its such a tasty plot device.

But anyway I wanna try it eventually. I have one fleshed out fic in my head where fae!Wil tries to trick human!Techno but kinda messes up the order that you're meant to do things.

Fae take the face after as a trophy of sorts, he took it before making any deals to try and be more relatable to him since they're both kids.

Human!Techno is, of course, a very well adjusted prince and naturally decides that this fae is his twin and that he has to have him. So with the help of years of training against fae, he's able to trick Wilbur and steal him.

The rest of the fic is Wil being terrified because the yoink has been reversed but even after he reveals the fact that he's a fae Kristin and Phil have already decided to keep him. No running for him :)

But I have another in mind where twinsduo end up taking the faces of two princes in a kingdom but then get mistaken for actually being them.

Maybe the princes were playing in the forest before getting yoinked but either way a royal guard comes and just drags them back to the castle.

They can't really do much about it since they're super young fae and there's a lot of iron around but things only get worse when the antarctic empire invades and takes them hostage, still thinking that they're the actual princes.

Originally they were just gonna bide their time until they can go back into the woods again but now they're being kept as hostage and Phils getting more and more interested in how odd they keep acting.

Obviously it ends in them getting surprise adopted but I'm not sure how to get from point A to B yet so more brainrot will be scheduled for when I work it out.

Everything Right/Wrong with Ninjago “Legacy of the Green Ninja” E2: Pirates Vs. Ninja

Disclaimers: Show owned by LEGO. This is not a professional review/critique - it’s mainly intended for comedy.

- Intro ✅

- Soto writes in his journal vertically ❌

- Actual dr*nk pirate in a kids show ❌

- “… the fabled Island of Darkness.” Foreshadowing ✅

- First 2 minutes of a kids show depicts a pirate crew dying violently at sea… maybe this is why they were allowed to show the dr*nk guy ❌

- “Woah, grasshopper!” Grasshopper ✅

- “How about some target practice? On Kai!” If Kai’s the target, then why is Cole wearing the bowl on his head? ❌

- Wait is someone actually allowing Ultra Dragon to perch on their roof, or is Nya sitting him here without the building owner’s consent? ❌

- “Like a magic portal?” Was that another voice swap?!? Godd*mmit, I thought we left these in season 1! ❌

- “Keep up with him you slithering idiots!” They don’t slither - they have legs! ❌

- I know why Garmadon can’t hurt Ultra, but give me one reason as to why Ultra can’t just turn around and blow the ship up ❌

- “This crew sounds like they knew how to fly a ship!” They gave the wheel to the dude with no eyes ❌

- “Welcome to Grand Sensei Dareth’s Mojo Dojo.” No. ❌

- Look, Dareth gets better in later seasons. I enjoy him in Crystalized and Prime Empire and stuff, but early Dareth? I wanna snap his spine like a KitKat.

- ^ How does Dareth untangled himself from those bead things that easily without them getting tangled into each other? Maybe Dareth is really the master of beads… or balls? ⬇️

- ^ yeah, that adds up

- “How many trophies do you have?” 30 something-year old man makes fun of an 8 year old for literally no reason ❌

- “… Lord Garmadon destroyed the Devourer.” I’m only gonna mention this briefly since I’ll go into more detail during season 8 but Garmadon never would’ve been able to do sh*t against the Devourer had it not been for the ninja trapping it. ❌

- ^ I’m living for the hand gestures Kai makes during this scene ✅

- “It only has the power to create!” Or it only works when you say “I wish.” You didn’t say that with Ultra, but you did say it with the pirates. Look, all I’m saying is Garmadon comes to this conclusion a bit too quickly ❌

- Taking a villain that’s bent on destruction and equipping him with a weapon that can’t destroy anything but can only create stuff is a genuinely interesting concept. Personally, I just wish it was done better than it was, because it had a lot of potential that I felt wasn’t really lived up to. ❌

- “But instead of 10 boards, how about 50?” End me now please ❌

- Also, Jeffy and Phil are literally just Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. Usually, I’d win this like I do with most references but this is a sin because f*ck JK R*wling ❌

- “I don’t like the kid coming along.” The kid ✅

- “Please, please, please? I’ll be super good!” He’s just a little guy :( ✅

- The ninja think it’d be too dangerous to take Lloyd with them, so they decide to leave him alone on a public bus that could travel anywhere around the city? ❌

- “Pajama man!” PAJAMA MAN ✅

- “Dang it, Dareth!” A slightly more PG version of what I would say

- Did they actually have the money to pay for these costumes or did they legit steal them? ❌

- Jay literally looks Kai up and down and says “wow.” Bisexual Jay canon? ✅

- “We have to save him.” “We can’t get close enough without blowing our cover!” Kai thinks their cover is more important than Dareth. I mean, I agree, but still ❌

- “who here wants to see him go splat?” ME!

- “Who here wants to see him live!” *confused pirate noises* ✅

- Also, neither Jay nor Kai speak up when Jay says that. Again, I agree, but these guys are supposed to be the heroes! ❌

- Where are Zane and Cole throughout the entire plank scene? ❌

- “More pajama men?” “Where? I can’t see!” Are jokes about blind people forgetting they’re blind similar to when bilingual characters “forget to switch” which language they’re speaking in? ❌

- “Ninja vs pirates… who will win?” I still think that the fact that we didn’t get a definitive answer to this question is the soul reason for why Skybound was made. I’m gonna let you all decide if that’s a sin or win.

- Since when does Zane use smoke bombs? ❌

- Okay who put a gum ball machine on the Bounty and why???? ❌

- “Jay!” Okay, but I’m with Jay on this one. If y’all are gonna be dumb enough to actually fall a victim to this gum ball thing I think you deserve the face the consequences ❌

- Lloyd just completely took Zane out I’m- ✅

- Kai puts Lloyd upside down in a BARREL because surely that’s safe /s ❌

- “I just did Spinjitzu for the first time!” Why does this line delivery remind me of the dialogue from Dora the Explorer? ❌

- I know we established that Lloyd can harness all four elements of creation, but this energy ball/green power thing really did just come out of nowhere, didn’t it? ❌

- “Your powers are too uncontrollable!” Cole wants to warn Lloyd so bad that he astral projects his voice through Kai to do so ❌

- Annndddd Nya just tore the sail ❌

- “You’re getting stronger son, but you’ll never be strong enough to defeat me! Give up, before it’s too late!” Well this dynamic seems a little… different compared to the last time we saw it? ❌

- Also, shouldn’t Lloyd be getting punished for this? He was told not to come because it’s dangerous (and it is) and he ignored them and went anyway. He seriously could’ve gotten killed! I’m not saying he needs to be grounded for life or anything but the ninja should explain to him why he shouldn’t have come. ❌

- I’m sorry I love the way they’re all staring affectionately at Lloyd. Like, he’s their little brother and they love him and ahhhh ✅

Sentence: Dareth

Number Seven | PART 1

Jack Grealish

Part 2 | Part 3

Jack was surprised to see her in the crowd wearing an England shirt number seven. Let’s just say their relationship was... Complicated.

Inspired by that video of Jack and Phil. This piece is dedicated to @jackgrealishbrummiesuperstar who wondered who Jack was looking at and @daikiry19 who attempted on lip reading😆 (Thank you for the ideas!) And definitely for all Jack’s girls out there!

She was there. She was up there in the stands, wearing an England home shirt.

No. Not just an ordinary England home shirt, but one with a number seven written on the front. Jack was the number seven. He needed to focus on her shirt to make sure that he saw the right thing and after a few seconds he could confirm that she was indeed wearing a Grealish shirt.

Jack's lips twitched upright very slightly and that was when Phil came closer to him, snatching his attention by saying, "We are really going to the final, bro."

Jack immediately turned his attention away from her and looked back at his little brother who was smiling from ear to ear, clearly still high on adrenaline because they had just won over Denmark that sent England to the Euro's final.

"Did we really do it? This feels mental," Phil said again as he put his hand on Jack's shoulder.

"Yeah, of course we did, listen to those cheers, man," Jack finally responded as he quickly looked around. All the fans were still buzzing, some were clapping, some were cheering, and some hadn't stopped singing Sweet Caroline. Jack stole a glance again towards her and felt his heart jump a little bit when he saw her staring at him.

"Who are you looking at?" Phil furrowed his eyebrows, realising that Jack was spacing out and looking out somewhere.

"No one."

"Yeah? Doesn't feel real, does it?" Phil suddenly pulled him into a hug and Jack wasn't sure why. Maybe just because he was extremely overjoyed and Jack understood that because he also still couldn't wrap it around his head, the fact that they were really going to the final.

"My missus is here. She's here," Jack mumbled. He didn't know who he was saying that to, Phil or himself. He didn't even know why he said that she was his missus when she was certainly not. But he didn't think Phil caught what he said because the man continued to say something about winning it all and lifting a trophy, which he didn't pay any attention to because his head was full of thoughts of her.

To be honest, Jack had no idea she was there.

They had met a couple of times for the past month to talk and Jack had been making his intention clear, but she hadn't really given him a green light. She said that she needed time to think and that it would be best for them to wait until the Euro is over. Then the Euro took over and all Jack could do was to keep their communication going by texts and random short calls once in a few days.

They had met a couple of times for the past month to talk and Jack had been making his intention clear, but she hadn't really given him a green light. She said that she needed time to think and that it would be best for them to wait until the Euro is over. Then the Euro took over and all Jack could do was to keep their communication going by texts and random short calls once in a few days.

Jack wasn't sure if he was really making any progress, he wasn't sure if they were going in the direction he was hoping for. She was just very hard to read and he was desperate to figure out whether she had developed more good feelings towards him. Unfortunately he had to wait for at least another week. What made it worse was that he missed her more than anything. He wanted to invite her to the semi-final before, but he was too scared of taking the wrong step. She also said that work had been crazy for her so he really didn't want to disturb her.

It was a huge surprise for him that she was there without him even asking, that she really went to all the trouble traveling from Birmingham to London for him. What was more surprising was the fact that she had worn the number seven shirt. It had to mean something, right? At least Jack hoped so.

Jack wanted to give her a call as soon as possible. He had dialed her number before he even closed his hotel door, closing it with his foot before he impatiently discarded his shoes in front of the mirror on his way to the bed. He sat on the bed, his heart gradually beating faster while he listened to the never ending ringing tone. He was considering hanging up and waiting for another ten minutes, thinking that maybe she was still busy doing something else, but then a little hello came from the other side of the phone.

So familiar, so sweet, and it literally made his heart stop for a second.

"Hi. Where are you?" Jack said. He sounded more eager than he meant to.

"Just arrived at the hotel. Oh, my feet are killing me. I'm with Henry and Alicia, by the way. We went together and we're going to catch a train back home in the afternoon," she said, immediately reporting to Jack about her plans. It had become a habit for them lately, since their busy schedules usually only let them update each other with what they had been doing. Her voice sounded awfully hoarse, definitely because of all the screaming she did, which made him imagine an image of her cheering for him when he got subbed on.

"Where are you?" she asked him back.

"Yeah, just got back to our hotel too. Listen, I don't want to hold you for too long because I know you're tired. I just— I just want to say thank you for coming."

"You're welcome," she replied. By her voice, he knew she was smiling. "I wasn't sure I could make it but my meetings tomorrow got cancelled, so I asked Henry if he still had any tickets left and luckily he had one."

Freaking Henry. Worst friend ever. He didn't even say a word about her tagging along. Jack was the one who gave him some tickets.

"I really didn't know you were coming. Could've played better if I knew you were there watching. Why didn't you tell me?"

She giggled. "Wanted to give you a little surprise. Hey, you did your best. Congratulations for reaching the final. You're making history, Jack."

"Thank you." A smile grew on Jack's face, his heart getting even warmer from hearing her compliments. Another reason to be proud of himself tonight. "And you wore my shirt," Jack said, diverting the topic. The image of her standing up there on the stands wearing a number seven shirt was still so vivid on his mind and it was still driving him crazy.

"Of course I did. I've got to show who I was there for."

And Jack swore his heart just exploded right there.

He jumped to his feet, violently ran his hand through his hair before yanking it as he tried so hard not to scream. He fell silent, completely losing all his words. He swore she had never been this blunt before with everything she had said. She had never blatantly said something that would sound like a green light.

Jack's friends were there together at the match, he invited plenty of them. Some of them knew she had something going on with him, some of them didn't even know who she was. And it was driving him crazy, the fact that she wanted to show people she was there for him. This was definitely a green light, right?

"Jack?" Her voice brought Jack back to Earth. "Are you there?"

"Yeah, yeah," he quickly answered. "Just wondering, does this mean I can take you on a date when I get back?"

It was her turn to fall silent and Jack the passing seconds felt like minutes and hours for Jack. He bit his thumb, impatiently waiting for the answer. He silently cursed at himself, thinking that it was a complete mistake to ask her the question. She clearly told him that she needed time to think and wait until after the Euro and he just put her on the spot now.

But he felt the biggest release when he heard her voice again.

"Yes. Yes, you can," she finally answered.

Jack threw the biggest air punch, mouthing the most passionate "YES!!! YES!!!", and quickly tried to compose himself. He hoped she didn't hear any of that, he just couldn't contain his excitement. He sat himself down on the bed again, his hand gripping at the edge of the bed for support.

"Thank you. And thanks again for coming... Wish I could've played more," Jack said, trying to sound as calm as possible.

"Not your fault. You've always done great. Hopefully you'll start in the final, yeah?"

"Hopefully. Will you be there?"

She giggled happily. "I would be crazy if I didn't come to England's match in a final. Besides, I have to show my support to player number seven."

Jack felt his heart explode once again and was left speechless. Getting the national team into a major tournament final and getting back the girl he was in love with at the same time? This was definitely one of the best nights of his life.

—

i just realized that my 2 other pieces of jack was also him being in a complicated relationship (and one of them was also him on the phone) so maybe i need to stop writing about that🥲

here if you want to check it out: do you see it? & maybe

My Masterlist🤍

Dream SMP Head canon:

Ranboo has many enderman friends and gets invited to events like weddings and hangouts (they just collect grass and flowers) and other members of the smp just see Ranboo occasionally surrounded by endermen.

Karl can not only time travel but also slow down time in short intervals. A bit like really really fast reflexes or reactions.

Tommy sometimes gives people electric shocks when too close because of the thunderbolt.

After Ranboo showed Niki his infinite cake they had bake-offs to improve his caking skills.

When Techno gave Phil his totem of undying he actually crafted it into a neckless so Phil could wear it at all times.

Phil keeps a sketch book of places he’s visited through his immortal travels like ruined temples and night sky’s of stars long dead.

Ranboo’s previous memorie books before the SMP where written in the end language before they learnt English.

Fundy can super jump foxes like foxes and sometimes will just leap into piles of snow or leaves whenever he can.

Michael has small trinkets and trophy’s form when Tommy would babysit them and take them on adventures.

After being betrayed by everyone Fundy prefers passive mobs and has befriended many animals like foxes, birds and fish. (A trait from his mother a ‘forest spirit’)

Wherever Ghostbur goes there’s the lingering smell of gunpowder.

Erets eyes glow in the dark under his sunglasses.

Michael follows Ranboo around while holding onto their tail.

Puffy used to have different colours in her hair but then dyed it back to white, then she wanted to dye it again but couldn’t decide so Tommy and Tubbo just dyed her hair all the colours.

Quackity only has one wing.

When Techno couldn’t sleep or had a nightmare as a child the voices would keep him company and sing lullaby’s.

When waking through door ways Ranboo has to hold their crown because it’s fallen off their head too many times.

When Sapnap is angry he leaves a trail of smoking marks wherever he walks.

Bads physical appearance has grown more demon like due to the egg...

Sharper teeth and horns

His claws are longer

He has less control of his tail

Veins are seen around his eyes and arms

Increased height

Tubbo’s hair covers his eyes because he try’s to hide his scar form the festival.

Ranboo can’t look in mirrors due to his enderman side. (A bit like deer in headlights)

Techno has different hair styles for different occasions.

In his casino Quackity installed small details to remind him of Karl and Sapnap, like a spiral on the sealing and multiple fire places.

Whenever Tommy is stressed he would pet Henry but after when he was with Techno he would spend time his dogs. Now he plays with the end of Ranboos tail. Always seeking a form of comfort in one way or another.

Michael enjoys being carried around :

On Ranboos shoulders

Tubbo giving him piggy backs

Tommy holding him above his head and pretending he can fly (Ranboo does not like this one)

Whenever Techno is grumpy or grouchy Phil says he acts like a librarian

The council guard Ranboos mine and stop anyone other than Ranboo entering.

philza minecraft adopts two dragons, beats imperialism, and overcomes his fear of vore a novella (WORLDBUILDING)

have some assorted worldbuilding and stuff expanded upon that i couldnt figure out how to add organically to the story :>

Prior to the Sponsunk-Heart accords that solidified relations between the countries and protected humans, the relationship that dragons had with them was far more overtly predatory. Esempea as a country was founded on desperately trying to stem the flow of lost citizens and food to the endless hunger of invading dragons.

The population per square mile in most of Jeag is incredibly low, with exceptions in larger cities and along coasts. This along with the fact that roads don’t have any need to be maintained means that to most humans, the entire country is an untamed wilderness and the dragons living there  similarly monstrous.

One of the longest standing beliefs in dragons about humans is one that has saved many traveler’s lives - taking in a human who is traveling through your lands as a welcoming host could give you curious trinkets and mechanisms that are too fine to be crafted by dragon claws. Enough grateful clockmakers and tinkerers travelled through Jeag to enforce the belief that simply having humans around increased the likelihood of getting rare delicate gifts.

Prime is a travelers-merchant god that arose as a result of this same phenomenon. One of the only maintained roads in Jeag is the Prime blessed Path, and it marks a straight shot from the border through many of the larger commercial centers in Jeag, including the Heart. Prime as a god is invoked less formally these days, though most Esempi who live on the border or travel within Jeag land still keep a trinket or two on their person as a talisman 

The friendly relations between humans and dragons have been around for maybe 4 human generations and 2 dragon ones. The ��good ol days’ of looting without much regard for those stolen from are a lot fresher in the minds of the older Jeag elite

Esempea (Es-em-PAY) and The Esempi (Esem-PEE) are interchangeable as the nation name, though the latter is used for descriptions. 

Phil doesn’t have any bad leg, he’s got a balance disorder, likely caused by some childhood ear infection or something. Causes him to constantly feel that swaying feeling you get after coming off of a boat, and makes him uncertain about his walking as a result. I didn’t put as much research as I really should’ve into this I’m sorry :( it just wasn’t that big of a deal in the larger story beyond it being reduced in intensity while flying and being stored, since Techno’s wingbeats counteracted the swaying feeling

Storing is done for young dragonets that are unable to or only just began to fly. While Techno wouldn’t know it, storing larger things will gradually stretch it further, in order to accommodate the growth of the dragonet. Maybe one day he’ll be able to comfortably carry both Phil and Wilbur :)

Because of its strong association with hatchlings, storing items of significant enough weight will instinctively give dragons a strong protective desire that can bleed over some unhelpful patronization and infantilization of suitably sized humans along with it. A rather unfortunate amount of spur of the moment relationships between humans and dragons lead to the dragons, unknowingly or not, treating the human like some sort of hatchling-pet. As you can see Phil is pretty desperately determined not to be one of those ‘trophy-humans’

One of Wilbur’s pastimes in the capital would be to try and coax these feelings from random dragons, get them cooing over him and wanting to bring him home, before up and vanishing on them and watching them grow distressed and disappointed. Awww poor nobledragon, did your new little hatchling-pet have too much brains to sit through this bullshit? What a shaame. He didn’t make many friends. 

Tommy will definitely try to convince Wilbur to let him attempt storing before he’s big enough. Imagine an owlet choking on a mouse when picturing what happened next. A lot of desperate head flailing and regrets.

The Antarctic incident isn’t touched upon much in the fic beyond it being 1) bad, 2) got techno in jail for life and 3) went against Jeag entirely. I didn’t ever really hash it out (more fun to imagine it from the bits and pieces don’t you think ;P)  but basically, a younger Techno was a part of a force stationed far south who encountered another group of dragons, a pirate party. His job was to apprehend or kill these pirates who were disrupting southern trade, NOT decide to recruit them in his own plans to unify all of the southern reaches as a competing power with Jeag. Quackity was there for the Saint Malo Trials equivalent. it’s a little funny I played out the Antarctic Empire while completely excluding two major players (Phil and Wilbur) but eh what can ya do. Anyways he was tried with treason and was like 5 years into his lifetime sentence when Dream got him out. 

Sponsunk -> Spawn chunk. Jeag -> Jean, the ‘name’ of the ender dragon. Everything else is pretty easy to guess ;P

please for the love of god prime if you want to know more about this world just ask ;P i have spent so long in this headspace making this fic i would love to talk about it <3

[what-if-nct]

hello today's reminder is that i strongly with wanting to see Doyoung play a trophy wife but i agree with you more, i really wanna see him play a very fucked up character. like. just twisted. morally grey is probably the best we'll get, but i wanna see him being evil behind that pretty face so i feel weird going back to his idol self for a bit. idk if you've watched it but shinee Minho did a movie called Derailed in which he played a pretty fucked up character who ends up doing a lot of questionable stuff, including kidnapping a little girl, trying to save his girlfriend from prostitution and… yeah. i need to see more of that kinda stuff. from both of them. please and thank you.

Hihi, Yes!!!! Have him play a character that makes it hard for you to look him in the eyes. Honestly I have to remind myself Sydney Sweeney isn't Cassie. Make more idols villains! They can be a little evil as a treat. It adds a little spice. Doyoung would honestly be such a great villain. like if Yuta can be in a gang I think Doyoung should be a serial killer. Look at Yixing who wants to be a dinosaur or killer, a well rounded actor. And oh I didnt but it sounds interesting. I did recently watch a movie about the dark side of prostitution and sex work. It was a little triggering since I use to do sex work, just cam stuff and being overall in bad situations. And it was a movie that absolutely broke me. But I totally want to check out Minho's movie. Also another genre I like is weird indie\lifetime movies, cause I always find the oddest movies. There was a movie called Thumbsucker I watched in middle school. It was about a 17 year old boy who still sucks his thumb, he gets put on Ritalin to help the thumbsucking but it causes him to absolutely spiral so he resorts to smoking pot instead and side plot his dad thinks his mom is having an affair with an actor at the rehab center she works at. Another one Normal Adolescent Behaviour Ricky Ullman from Phil of the future and Amber Tamblyn from sisterhood of the traveling pants are in it. But it's about a group of friends who get together every Saturday night and have sex with each other but it's full of secrets and their not really suppose to go outside of the group cause once someone gave them all crabs. They were in high school and I watched that in middle school....I think I know why I am the way I am. But I'd love to see more idols in weird dark shit, I need to see the range. I hope Doyoung gets to play a serial killer one day.

[hacked-by-jake]

Ummm so i have an idea

Pairing:jake×phil×richy

i want them to fight...i mean i like them to get jealous of mc.you can chose the words

We love youu❤️

A/n: Hi dear, I honestly have a little concern that I got your request a little wrong but I hope you like it as it is. It’s more of a discussion between arrogant men with too much testosterone and power. Just like teenager haha. Oh and a poor Dan.

I hope you like it anyway and thank you for your request.

You're too cute! Love you too!❤️❤️

All three men are forced to sit together at a table. It’s Jessy’s birthday, and that means everyone has to spend time together, whether they want to or not, because you’re there, too. And none of them could bear to give the other the opportunity to impress you..

"Can you all stop staring at MC like that? That’s really creepy" Dan murmurs and looks disturbed between you and the men.

You and Jessy are cutting the cake in the kitchen right now, so you’re not notice any of this.

"MC is so beautiful" enthuses Richy.

"Dan’s right, don’t stare like that," Phil throws in and twists his eyes.

"Maybe you should look somewhere else and not we," Jake counters pejoratively.

"Why? MC and I will definitely get together soon. So, I can stare as much as I want," Phil shrugs.

Richy laughs amusingly, "You and MC? You don’t believe that yourself, do you?"

"Oh he does, just ridiculous," Jake throws in and takes a sip of his beer.

"Yes, but the hacker or the mechanic is clear," Jessy’s brother laughs bitterly.

"But the bar owner" the mechanic imitates him.

"I’ve got the best job of us, and I have my own bar," Phil says.

"Yes, and I have a workshop" Richy counters and looks confident.

"Yes, and I’m a fucking hacker."

"What’s so interesting about a hacker?" Richy looks disparagingly at the black-haired.

He laughs amused, "Is the question meant seriously? I’m a hacker. I travel a lot, always have other jobs with huge corporations. Oh and I’m making a hell of a lot of money, so how’s your car graveyard?"

"I doubt good," Phil intervenes and looks at Richy.

"Rogers Garage has been going well since the MC helped, MC is really an angel."

"MC helped you?" Jake and Phil ask at the same time. Immediately the two look at each other as if they wanted to kill the other with one look

"Didn’t you know about that? It was really amazing," the mechanic says.

"Argh! Guys!" Dan hisses annoyed, "Can you stop please? You are really annoying!"

He shouldn’t have done that.

At the same time all heads fly in his direction and a loud "no" is thrown towards him.

Dan raises his hands defensively, "At least you all agree."

"What’s this all about? I’m not gonna talk to you guys about MC anymore. MC belongs to me and you will understand this soon enough" Jake clarifies and gets immediately again protest from the others.

"I really don’t think MC even thinks about choose you," Phil hisses.

"I agree with him, MC will choose me, I am the nicest of us, I am the most uncomplicated and simple. With me there is little stress and a normal daily routine" argues the mechanic.

Both others laugh up.

"You’ll be too boring for MC, MC loves action and there’s always something going on in my bar"

"Your bar is boring too, a small town where everyone knows everyone, MC wants to see the world and experience things. MC can do that only with me." Jake pretends to wipe some dust off his shoulder.

"So if MC find out about this here, then you’re all out of the election! Stop being like kids and see MC as a trophy, "Jessy suddenly throws Jessy into the round and everyone looks scared to her.

Right after that, everyone looks for you and hopes that you haven’t noticed the fight.

"MC is still in the bathroom, so behave now" the redhead twists her eyes.

"But tell me best sister of the whole world, you as MC’s best friend surely know more about the current relationship status, right?" asks Phil hypocritically and immediately gets another angry look from his sister.

"Oh my God, you are impossible! I will say nothing at all! "And it’s none of your business," Jessy complains, putting the cake on the table.

"Hi, everything good?" you ask as you come out on the terrace perceiving the strange mood.

You will not get an answer to your question but immediately you will be hurled from all sides with asks.

"Hey MC, you can sit with me," Jake offers you right away.

"Yes MC, but you can also sit next to me, I would be very happy, I gave you extra space," Phil tries his luck.

"I’ve got enough room for you, too," a bright smile is on Richy’s lips.

"Um, thank you guys, but I think I’m sitting with Dan and Jessy," you say and have to stop giggling.

You’re not stupid, you know their quarrel about you, the others always tell you, but you don’t interfere.

Your heart beats only for one.

Oh! I love learning about the different cultures in The End. There's the Enderians (usually referred to as 'endermen' by the Overworlders) but there's also the Shulks and the Elytrians! Collectively, they're known as the Voidfolk because they're, well, native to the Void!

Enderians are the largest population in the End, seperated into Mainland Enderians and City Enderians. While there are also Enderians who immigrate to the Overworld or the Nether, they usually assimilate to the culture of their new home so I won't be talking about them much. The most obvious difference between Enderians of various areas is the dialect of Ender they speak. It's different between Overworld, Nether, and even Mainland and City Enderians!

Mainland Enderians are super loyal to their queen, the Ender Dragon. They're connected by a sort of hivemind that lets them know if the queen is in pain or in danger. This hivemind even connects to Enderians who have since gone elsewhere, but the connection between the dragon and an Enderian's mind can be severed by ########## # #########. Enderians born outside of the End aren't really affected by the hivemind unless a pathway to the End has been opened. The only known effect on Enderians regardless of where they're born is the lack of a need for sleep! Besides the queen, there are also twelve princes, who are in charge of protecting the twelve towers that keep the queen alive. These towers are the only structures on the Mainland aside from the unbreakable nest that holds the queen's egg! It's speculated that the queen doesn't see the need for her people to sleep or build, since their only "job" is meant to be protecting her from harm.

City Enderians live in the End Cities, along with Shulks and (formerly) Elytrians. Interestingly, End Cities seem to be the primary home of Shulks, but Elytrians have always made their home elsewhere. City Enderians built their cities themselves a long time ago, away from the control of the queen. The number of free-minded City Enderians has been dwindling, as more and more of them answer the queen's call and join the hivemind. Historically, though, City Enderians have had a great relationship with the Elytrians, and imports from the Elytrian kingdom(s?) helped the Cities survive as long as they have. It was largely a mercantile society! Unfortunately, after more City Enderians started to join the hivemind, there was less need for trade and thus less interaction between Enderians and Elytrians until finally all interaction stopped. The only remaining evidence that Elytrians once existed in Enderian spaces are the wings left behind, presumably trophies taken after they were killed by one of the queen's newly inducted soldiers.

Much of Elytrian history is shrouded in mystery, since they largely kept to themselves after the loss of Enderian trade. We know more of Enderian history than Elytrian due to the accessibility of the Mainland and Cities by Overworlders as opposed to the hidden kingdom(s?) of the Elytrians. Very rarely, an Elytrian will come to the Overworld, but they never share much of Elytrian life. What little is known is that they live extraordinarily long lives, sometimes upwards of thousands of years. They have their own language, which from what I've read is quite vowel-heavy, and it's said to sound beautiful when sung. They travel long distances by airship, and are the only people able to pilot them properly. Elytrians seem to be the most advanced people in the End, and rival even Overworlders in their technologies. It's a shame they keep to themselves so much. We could learn a lot from them…. Phil wears a cloak a lot, but I've seen what's beneath it. I wonder if he'd tell Ranboo anything if he asked?

Finally, there's Shulks! They exist primarily in the End Cities, but a potential co-existence with Elytrians is up for debate! They're incredibly strong, and protect the Cities from intruders. The babies are the ones you'll find hiding away in their little boxes. Fully grown Shulks, however, have grown into their shell and treat it as built-in armor. Young or old, Shulks are able to spit a venom that inflicts damage and causes the target to float. The older the Shulk, the more potent the venom. They usually refuse to speak to outsiders, though there's been accounts from a few young Shulk as to why they stick around. According to said accounts, they're waiting for the City Enderians to be freed and the Elytrians to return. Until then, they'll stand guard over the Cities. This tradition has been passed down for several generations, and it's unclear if the Shulk truly believe the Enderians and Elytrians will return or if they're simply continuing the tradition for the sake of having a purpose.

That's. Definitely a lot more information than you asked for. Sorry ^-^"

SBI Foster AU Fic (Vent Fic)

I made this to vent about how I feel as a long-term foster kid in my current household. it’s based of SBI with Tommy as the foster kid cause I relate to his character to much-

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Trapped. That was how he’d describe how he felt right now. Sure he’d lived with them for his entire life, sure they cared for him, sure they’d raised him, but it never felt genuine anymore. 

Nowadays he felt stuck with them, like he had to live with them as his family, they’ve wasted 16 years on him anyways. Ever since they found him as a baby and took him in, the foster system made them his ‘family’.

If they were really his family, why did he feel stuck here? He’d lived in this tiny town in the middle-no-nowhere called the SMP for his entire life. Sure their were neighboring towns close-by and cities a couple of hours away, but it wasn’t enough for him anymore.

He felt mocked by the trees surrounding the town that made up the landscape, caged by the ‘exiting’ signs that he’d drive by when going to school, the ones his family would so absently turn-by to drive into the main part of town. He felt so stranded here. 

Sure he could leave, but he’d have to go alone or maybe with his fellow foster-kid Tubbo. But they’d have to walk hours to get to the nearest next-over town. Plus it’d be by the highway and the climate here wasn’t the kindest. That didn’t even take into account the various creeps who could see the two of them on the side of the road and take them both with ease.

Still that didn’t even seem bad as how stuck he felt here. It was the same thing every day. People, so many people, expecting things of him in school, sports, everything. He was a so-called gifted-child but that was fading now. He couldn’t seem to focus anymore, he’s lost all his motivation too. He was fading, but everyone still needed something from him.

That didn’t even cover how he feels he’ll never achieve to be what he really wants. He wants to be famous, he wants to be known by the world before he dies, he doesn’t want to die a nobody, so being stuck in this dead-end town crushed his hopes even more.

It was a vicious cycle now. What used to what he loved, he now despised. The sports he used to dominate, he could barely force himself to go. At the thought of going, he’d become so stressed. He couldn’t even describe how the panic attacks and anxiety felt like when his foster parent Philza would ask. It was that hard. 

Plus having to live up to his two perfect brother Wilbur and Techno was impossible. They both were the stars pf their grade, both top of there years. Wilbur was a musical genius while Techno excelled in Language and Martial Arts. They both had a breaming amount of trophy's, medals, and other awards to show for their talent that put Tommy’s year’s old 1st and 2nd ribbons to shame. 

Why did he try anymore? Why did he stay? Why can he not leave? All of this and more would brim his mind in the late hours of the night when he’s lay awake while everyone else would be asleep. He’s stay up so he could finally be at peace, that seemed to b the only time of the day when no one expected anything of him, it was the only time he had to himself. 

Even in his room, or working homework, or even just watching tv he constantly get’s yelled at by his foster dad asking him what he was doing.

Privacy seemingly wasn’t a thing he got anymore as a result of all the things he used to do. Sure, he would sneak his foster dad’s old phone and use it at night when he wasn’t supposed to quite a few times but he’s already dealt with that. Same with that time he ran away at 12am and travel 6 hours to the next town over and almost froze to death, then phoned Philza to come pick him up at the local hotel at 5am in the morning. So what? 

The only reason he snuck the phone or ran away was because he felt so caged here. He didn’t have a phone, Phil installed a security system now, and he always had to tell Phil what he was up to. All of the things Phil would do to protect him cause he ‘cares about him’ just made him feel even more unsafe. It pushed his mental even lower than it is. It didn’t help that he’s scared to say anything to him now.

Sure he promised his worker, Puffy, he wouldn’t run off again, but now he doesn’t know if he can stick to that promise. Everyday seems to be pushing him to start a new life somewhere else with a new family. 

But that would mean he leaves everything he cares about here behind. His friends, his room, his belongings, all the things that don’t hurt him. 

What would happen once he leaves? Would he ever be able to come back? Would the family work out, or would they be worse and he have to move families again? Where would he move to? Could he ever come back to this foster family again? What if they didn’t let him leave? What if they made him stay?

It was all to much to think about. But it was all coming to much of a possible future reality. He even had a small backpack for if he even ran away again ready to go, and a in-the-works plan ready incase it came to it.

For now though, he’ll stay despite staying making him hurt. 

But one thing sticks with him as the thoughts to leave his foster-family get louder.

Would leaving make him hurt more?

The Lost Princess Chapter 21

Warnings: Angsty angst angst

Rating: SFW

Sora and the others boarded the gummi ship and flew around space. While they were flying, Sora thought about you and how you were holding up. 

“Well, we found the Navi-Gummi piece. Let’s go back to town,” Donald said, causing Sora to snap out of his thoughts. 

“Cid’ll install it on the ship once we bring it to him,” Goofy said. They returned to Traverse Town and traveled to the First District, where they found Pinocchio and Geppetto in a new house.

“Pinocchio?” Sora asked. 

“Hey, it’s Sora,” Pinocchio said. 

“Well, hello Sora!” Geppetto said. 

“How did you get here?” Sora asked. 

“A man named Leon helped us. He even got us this house to live in. I don’t know how I’ll ever repay his kindness. Say, I hear you three are fighting the Heartless. I thought I might be able to help you, so I made this,” Geppetto said as he handed Sora a gummi ship blueprint. 

“For us?” Sora asked. 

“But of course! Pinocchio and I can’t thank you enough! We’ll do anything we can to help you,” Geppetto said. 

“I’m being good, even without Jiminy’s help,” PInocchio said. The three of them left and spoke to Cid in the First District.

“Looks like you found the other one. Let me see it,” Cid said. Sora handed Cid the gummi block.

“Okay, wait here. I’ll get it installed right now,” he said. As they waited for Cid to modify their ship, Sora stared at the ground sadly.

“Sora!” Donald said. 

“Now, just remember what Donald said to ya: no frowning, no sad faces,” Goofy said. 

“How can you be so cheerful? There’s still no sign of (y/N) or your king. Aren’t you worried?” Sora said. 

“Aw, phooey.” 

“The king told us to go out and find the key bearer, and we found you. So as long as we stick together, it’ll all work out okay. Ya just gotta believe in yourself, that’s all.”

“Yeah but what about (Y/N)? What’s will happen to her?” 

“It’s just like Goofy said. You just gotta believe.” 

“Just believe…” Sora closed his eyes and heard two voices.

“I believe in you,” you and Kairi said at the same time. Sora found himself flying toward a great shining light, which enveloped everything. Slowly, a room began to fade in around him, filled with bookshelves and stained glass windows. He floated in the air, watching.

“Where am I?” he asked. He saw an old woman sitting on a chair under a long staircase. A young girl with red hair ran up to the woman, who smiled down at her.

“Long ago, people lived in peace, bathed in the warmth of light. Everyone loved the light. Then people began to fight over it. They wanted to keep it for themselves. And darkness was born in their hearts. The darkness spread, swallowing the light and many people’s hearts. It covered everything, and the world disappeared. But small fragments of light survived…in the hearts of children. With these fragments of light, children rebuilt the lost world. It’s the world we live in now. But the true light sleeps, deep within the darkness. That’s why the worlds are still scattered, divided from each other. But someday, a door to the innermost darkness will open. And the true light will return. So, listen, child. Even in the deepest darkness, there will always be a light to guide you. Believe in the light, and the darkness will never defeat you. Your heart will shine with its power and push the darkness away. Do you understand, Kairi?” the old lady said. Sora blinked and the woman disappeared.

“Kairi!?” he asked. He scanned the room, seeing no one for a second. Blinking again, he was back floating in the air, seeing the 4 year-old Kairi, who looked around. He bent forward, trying to reach her, but she disappeared and he was thrown to baby you. He saw you with your father in castle being surrounded by his friends. He blinked again was thrown to 4 year old you. He saw you walking out of the castle in Scala ad Caelum, holding someone’s hand. He couldn’t see who it was but he could tell that you were happy. He blinked again and was back floating in the air and saw you meeting him and Riku. He suddenly heard someone whisper in his ear

Please...save my sister...

He was then thrown back into reality where Donald and Goofy looked at him worried. 

“Huh?” he asked, shocked. 

“What happened?” Goofy asked. 

“I-I don’t know...I think Kairi and (Y/N) called to me.” Cid walked back to the trio.

“I installed that navigation gummi. But, ya know? That place is crawling with Heartless. Don’t say I didn’t warn you,” he said. Sora looked at him confused. 

“Here, take this along,” Cid said. He gave them a gummi block. They left for the Olympus Coliseum and competed in the Hercules Cup. They reached the final match with Hercules.

“Show me what you’ve got!” Herc said. 

“Hercules, wait. Let’s go one-on-one!” Sora said. 

“Oh, brother. What a show-off,” Donald said. 

“What’re we gonna do?” Goofy asked. 

“Let him go alone, I guess.” 

“Good luck, Sora!” 

“I’m not gonna go easy on you!” Herc said. Sora fought and defeated Hercules, winning a trophy. Phil danced on the steps of the arena as Sora smiled at Donald and Goofy, holding the trophy in his hands. They returned to the Vestibule.

“Wow! And I didn’t even hold back!” Herc said.

“Now I finally know what you mean about strength of heart. Mine comes from Donald and Goofy,” Sora said.

“Come again?” Phil asked. 

“If we stick together, we’re unbeatable. Not even Hercules stands a chance.” Hercules smiled.

“With these guys beside me, I’m ready for anything!” Sora said. 

“But that’s not exactly what I—” Phil said. 

“Of course. Your friends give you strength. Isn’t that right, Phil? The three of you together make great heroes,” Herc said as he picked Phil up. He put Phil back down.

“And as a team, I’m sure you can overcome anything,” Herc said. Sora and Hercules slammed their hands together. Sora, Donald, and Goofy pushed the pedestal in the room over to reveal the Keyhole in the floor. Sora stood in front of it and held his Keyblade up. The blade glowed and the Keyhole was sealed. Sora talked to Hercules afterwards.

“Phil wasn’t happy that I lost to you. Said I was getting soft. You beat me last time, but next time won’t be so easy,” Herc said. They left the Olympus Coliseum and traveled to the next world. They disembarked on a tiled platform in the middle of a raging waterfall. Strangely, the waterfalls seemed to be going upward. Goofy pointed further ahead, past the waterfalls.

“Gawrsh, look at that!” Goofy said. 

“I know this place…” Sora said. They walked closer and gazed up at Hollow Bastion, a ruined castle, twisted by the darkness inhabiting the world for so long.

“Hmm, that’s strange,” Goofy said.

“I wonder why… I feel this warmth inside, right here,” Sora said as he placed his hands over his chest. 

“Aw, you’re just hungry,” Donald said.

“Hey, I’m serious!” A loud roar erupted from further ahead, startling them.

“Let’s go!” Sora said. They traveled along the crystalline platforms toward the origin of the sound. Above on a platform with a stone arch, Riku was confronting a figure in a violet cloak. From the hairy claws and tail protruding from the bottom of the cloak, it was undeniably animal.

“No vessel, no help from the Heartless… So tell me, how’d you get here?” Riku said. The beast stood on its hind legs as a human, and it gazed upon Riku with the same resolution as human eyes would, but the rest of its body, from its horns to its fangs to its claws, screamed otherwise. It began to speak, its voice low and rough.

“ I simply believed. Nothing more to it. When our world fell into darkness, Belle was taken from me. I vowed I would find her again no matter what the cost. I believed I would find her. So, here I am. She must be here. I will have her back!” he said.

“Take her, if you can!” Riku challenged. The beast roared and leaped up at Riku. It swiped at him with its sharp claws, but Riku flipped backward, dodging the attack completely. The beast’s cloak settled to his side as Riku landed on his feet. With lightning speed, Riku charged forward at the beast. Sora arrived in time to see the beast fall to the ground with a stinging growl.

“Stop!” he said. Riku looked over at the three of them standing in front of the beast and smirked confidently.

“So, you finally made it. About time. I’ve been waiting for you. We’ve always been rivals, haven’t we? You’ve always pushed me as I’ve always pushed you,” he said. 

“Riku…” Sora said. 

“But it all ends here. There can’t be two Keyblade masters.” 

“What are you talking about?” 

“Let the Keyblade choose…” Riku held a hand to his chest. 

“…its true master,” he said. He extended his hand out toward the Keyblade, which began to shake violently in Sora’s grasp. Sora grabbed the blade with two hands as it started to pull itself toward Riku. The Keyblade flashed out of Sora’s hands….

“Huh?” Sora and Goofy asked.

“What?” Donald asked. …and reappeared in Riku’s. He stared up at it, smiling darkly.

“Maleficent was right. You don’t have what it takes to save Kairi and (Y/N),” he said. He turned his gaze skyward.

“It’s up to me. Only the Keyblade master and a spirit can open the secret door…” he said. He held the blade up high.

“…and change the world,” he said. 

“But that’s impossible. How did this happen? I’m the one who fought my way here with the Keyblade!” Sora said. Riku looked at his Keyblade again.

“You were just the delivery boy,” he said. He dispelled the blade and pulled out a wooden sword.

“Sorry, your part’s over now. Here, go play hero with this,” he said. He tossed the sword to Sora, which landed on the stone platform with a clunk. Sora fell to his hands and knees in defeat as Riku left. Donald and Goofy watched him leave.

“Goofy. Let’s go. We have to remember our mission,” Donald said.

“Oh! Well, I know the king told us to follow the key and all… But…” Goofy said. He gazed back toward Sora giving a sad grumble. Donald stopped.

“Sora, sorry,” he said. 

“No you’re not. If you were sorry then you would’ve helped me search for (Y/N) and clues about her. But all you cared about was your stupid king!” Sora said. Donald ignored him and they continued after Riku. Sora didn’t move, feeling the cold stone beneath his fingers and the spray of the water on his clothes. He was nearly deaf to the low growl and thumping footsteps behind him. He looked up, seeing the beast walk past him. He watched as it fell to the ground again with a moan. Sora got up and ran to his side.

“Hey, don’t move. You’re hurt,” he said. the beast looked over at Sora, who noticed his intensely human eyes.

“Why… Why did you…you come here? I came to fight for Belle,” he said. He looked up at the castle and stood up again. He started slowly walking ahead.

“And though I am on my own, I will fight. I won’t leave without her. That’s why I’m here,” he said. Sora turned around, staring at the wooden sword on the ground. He picked it up and walked back to the Beast’s side.

“Me too. I’m not gonna give up now. I came here to find two girls that are very important to me,” he said. They made their way up to the furthest platform and gazed at Hollow Bastion. Mysterious gases swirled from pipes protruding from the castle. The center of its towers displayed a large Heartless emblem, shattered from the inside, the gears clearly visible from the platform. Mechanical cranes were built into all sides of the castle, though are largely rusted and overgrown, as if the innards of the castle themselves came alive and rooted themselves deeply across its façade. The rest of the world below had become a barren crystalline wasteland and darkness waited at every corner. A switch activated and a pink light appeared at the castle. A magical line appeared toward them, bringing a metal platform with it, rigged to the line with electric sparks. Sora and the Beast walked onto the elevator, which took them up to Hollow Bastion. Finding the castle gates locked, they descended into the watery underbelly of the fortress, finding the access switch in the confusing maze of the dungeons. They released the switch, and the gears in the wall began to spin and they heard the sound of a door opening. Heading back to the castle gates, they entered the main Hall. Meanwhile in the Grand Hall, Jasmine, Alice, and the other princesses of heart are encased in crystal chambers on the sides of the room under the effects of a sleeping curse while you were still tied up in the center, fading in and out of consciousness. Maleficent walked over an ornate carpet bearing the Heartless insignia toward a large open room, each footfall echoing in the vacant hall. Kairi’s body rested in a dark capsule in the center of the room next to you. Maleficent’s fingers curled around her staff as she passed the capsule and ascended the stairs. She whirled around to face the princesses of heart and you.

“O purest of hearts and spirit of light! Reveal to me the Keyhole!” she said. She raised her arms fervently. You screamed in agony as you felt you power being forced to do this spell. The hearts of the six maidens lining the walls glowed in unison and beams of pink light shined out from them. The six met at a point in the air over you and Kairi’s body, pointing a trail of sparkles to a great heart in the room beyond. Maleficent watched, and smiled. Meanwhile, Sora and Beast arrived in the Entrance Hall, seeing no one.

“Be on your guard. They’re close, I can feel it. Are you ready for them?” Beast said. Sora moved forward as Beast gasped

“Belle?” he asked. He whirled around, seeing the faint shape of a woman in a golden dress in the dark doorway. It erupted into a cloud of darkness, where a Shadow Heartless appeared. The Beast shook, rage and frustration flowing within him. He gave out a great roar and charged after the Heartless, the door closing in on him, separating him from Sora. The sound echoed in Sora’s ears.

“Quit while you can,” Riku said. Sora turned, seeing Riku with Donald and Goofy.

“No. Not without Kairi and (Y/N),” he said. 

“The darkness will destroy you,” Riku said. Tendrils of darkness erupted around Riku and his clothes took on a darker quality. He clenched his fists, feeling the dark powers inside his heart, and glared at who he used to call a friend.

“You’re wrong, Riku. The darkness may destroy my body, but it can’t touch my heart,” Sora said. He held a hand over his chest.

“My heart will stay with my friends. It’ll never die!” he said. 

“Really… Well, we’ll just see about that!” Riku said. He thrusted his hand forward, releasing a dark fireball aimed straight at Sora’s heart. The energy coursed through his hand, causing the air to ripple, his hair whipping across his face. Sora was paralyzed as it drew near him and he closed his eyes, hearing a crash.

“Sora ain’t gonna go anywhere!” Goofy said. Sora opened his eyes, seeing Goofy standing in front of him with his shield out. The energy, upon contact with the shield, had fizzled into the air around him.

“You’d betray your king?” Riku asked.

“Not on your life! But I’m not gonna betray Sora, either, or (Y/N), ‘cause he’s become one of my best buddies after all we’ve been through together!” he said. He turned to look at Sora, giving him a thumbs up.

“See ya later, Donald. Could ya tell the king I’m really sorry?” Goofy waved. 

“Hold on, Goofy! We’ll tell him together,” Donald said. He ran over to the two of them and looked up at Sora.

“Well, you know… All for one and one for all,” he said. 

“I guess you’re stuck with us, Sora,” Goofy said. 

“Thanks a lot… Donald, Goofy,” Sora said as he looked towards the ground.

“How will you fight without a weapon?” Riku asked. Sora looked back up at him.

“I know now I don’t need the Keyblade. I’ve got a better weapon. My heart,” Sora said. Riku scoffed.

“Your heart? What good will that weak little thing do for you?” he asked. 

“All though my heart may be weak, it’s not alone. It’s grown with each new experience, and it’s found a home with all the friends I’ve made. I’ve become a part of their heart just as they’ve become a part of mine. And if they think of me now and then…if they don’t forget me…then our hearts will be one,” Sora said. He then took out the wooden sword. 

“I don’t need a weapon. My friends are my power!” he said. The Keyblade flashed in Riku’s hand, much to his surprise. It disappeared and he stared at his hand, gasping in total astonishment. The Keyblade reappeared in Sora’s hands, and he stared down at Riku, who took out Soul Eater, his winged sword. Riku rushed forward attacking Sora in a flourish of hits. Sora dodged sideways and spun around, sliding back toward Riku and striking with his Keyblade. He reeled back, landing on his right foot. Bending his knee, he pushed off and jumped into the air over Goofy. Riku landed back on the floor and struck through Donald, knocking him out. He sent all his frustration into his sword as he slashed at Sora, who held his Keyblade in two hands, blocking Riku’s blows. Seeing a free opportunity, he bashed Riku in the side with the blade, sending him flying backward toward the fountain in the center of the room.

“No… Not yet…” Riku said. He bent over, breathing heavily. The darkness around his clothes faded and he ran away in disgrace. Beast entered the room behind them.

“So, your heart won this battle,” he said. Sora nodded and they continued through the castle. In the Castle Chapel, Riku ran over the cold stone floor out of breath.

“Why? It was mine,” he said. 

“Know this,” someone said. He stopped at the sound of the voice, caught his breath and turned around.

“The heart that is strong and true shall win the Keyblade,” the person said. Riku saw a cloaked figure emerging from the darkness covered in an unearthly glow.

“What? You’re saying my heart’s weaker than his?” Riku asked. Riku glared at the figure in defiance.

“For that instant, it was,” the figure said. Riku’s eyes widen and he shook his head, staring at the floor.

“However, you can become stronger,” the figure said. The figure walked closer to Riku, the X on its chest nearly visible.

“You showed no fear in stepping through the door to darkness. It held no terror for you. Plunge deeper into the darkness, and your heart will grow even stronger,” it said. 

“What should I do?” Riku asked. 

“It’s really quite simple. Open yourself to the darkness. That is all. Let your heart, your being become darkness itself.” Riku glowed with a green aura. He looked up at the figure, as it moved closer to him. Meanwhile, Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Beast ascended the castle. As they approached the Castle Chapel, Maleficent stood in the Grand Hall, gazing into the Dark Depths where the Keyhole laid in wait and you looking very weak. Riku, in his dark clothing, walked to join her. He spoke, his voice taking on an eerie quality.

“So, I see the path has emerged at last,” he said. 

“Yes. The Keyhole to the darkness. And it’s all thanks to the spirit,” she said. The great heart before them brimmed with energy.

“Unlock it and the Heartless will overrun this world,” Riku said. 

“What do I care? The darkness holds no power over me. Rather, I will use its power to rule all worlds,” Maleficent said. 

“Such confidence.” He held up his hand and a dark Keyblade appeared, the blade’s teeth forming the negative space of a heart. Maleficent gazed down at it, intrigued.

“Oh!” she said. The Keyblade failed to react in the Keyhole presence, much to Maleficent’s annoyance.

“Impossible! The princesses of heart and the spirit are all here! It must be her,” she said as she turned back, her eyes narrowed in irritation, settling on the body of Kairi, sleeping on the floor. They walked over to her and you.

“Without her heart, she will never be able to release her power,” Riku said. They heard a sound and looked in the direction of the Castle Chapel.

“The king’s fools are here. I’ll deal with them myself,” Maleficent said as she began to walk away. 

“You stay here and guard the princesses and the spirit,” she said. She gracefully exited as Riku watched her leave, a smirk appearing on his face as an unearthly glow surrounded him. Maleficent entered the chapel, coming face to face with Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Beast.

“I’m afraid you’re too late. Any moment now, the final Keyhole will be unsealed. This world will be plunged into darkness and you’ll lose your precious (Y/N). It is unstoppable,” she said. Her eyes flicker with her dark thoughts.

“We’ll stop it! After coming this far, there’s no way we’re gonna let that happen!” Sora said as he armed himself with the keyblade. She glowered at his impertinence, slamming her staff against the stone floor.

“You poor, simple fools. You think you can defeat me? Me, the mistress of all evil?” she said. She raised her arms and the platform underneath her rose out of the ground. It hovered in the air out of their reach. She tapped her staff against it, and it sailed across the room. The top of her staff sparked with green fire and she lifted it into the air, cackling.

“Now you’ll know the meaning of fear! A bolt of lightning to strike them down!” she said. Violet lightning crackled on the ceiling, sending thunderbolts down on top of them. Donald sent a Gravira spell at the witch’s platform, causing it to crash to the floor. Maleficent recovered from the fall and they rushed in and attack her.

“No!” she said. She swiped at them with her staff, knocking Sora away.

“Meteors of heaven, unleash thy fury!” she said. Behind her, a swirling vortex appeared, and large meteors flew in towards them. The wind whipped through Sora’s hair as they attempted to dodge the unending shower of rocks. Goofy covered himself with his shield as Beast was struck down by a meteor. Donald jumped away, but was sideswiped by another. As the witch cackled evilly, Sora stood his ground, placing a hand over his heart.

“Give me strength!” he said. Sora spun the Keyblade in his hands, holding the blade upwards and turning it clockwise. The tip of the blade glowed and magic swirled down the shaft. As it reached the hilt, Tinker Bell emerged twirling in the air. She flew to Sora and touched his nose, healing him. He smiled as she twirls around him. Tink flew to Beast and healed him as Maleficent narrowed her eyes.

“Come out!” she said. Tinker Bell continued to heal the party as Heartless appeared in the room. Maleficent raised her platform again, knocking Sora and Goofy off, floating to the other end of the room. Sora took out the Heartless as Donald striked the platform with another Gravira spell. Sora slid toward Maleficent and attacked her.

“Away!” she said. A large bolt of lightning erupted from the ceiling, striking Sora at full force. He fell over, but Tinker Bell revived him and disappeared. Donald attacked the witch with various spells as Goofy protected him. Just as she was about to summon another meteor shower, Beast lunged at her, claws bared.

“No!” she said. She bent over, her breath coming short. A portal appeared behind her and she walked through it. In a hidden room of the castle, Maleficent clutched her chest, using her staff for balance. Her breath came in tight as a corridor of darkness appeared behind where she treaded. Riku stepped out of it, the dark Keyblade in hand.

“Do you need some help?” he asked. 

“Riku!” Sora said. Sora and company entered and Riku turned to face them.

“Is that--” Donald asked. 

“Yes. A Keyblade,” Riku said as he held the Keyblade up.

“But unlike yours, this Keyblade holds the power to unlock people’s hearts. Allow me to demonstrate… Behold!” Riku stabbed Maleficent in the chest with the Keyblade.

“Wha--” She asked. The witch’s chest flooded with darkness.

“Now, open your heart, surrender it to the darkness! Become darkness itself!” Riku said. He released the Keyblade and retreated into a portal. Maleficent stood up straight, and quietly laughed to herself.

“This is it! This power!” she said. She glowed with a green aura, laughing.

“Darkness… The true darkness!” she said. She erupted in green flames, sending them billowing higher into the air, her dark shadow etched in its smoky tendrils as her form changed. She grew larger, her black cloak expanding outward and filling with green. From her back, large wings pushed outward splitting to her sides, knocking the green from her body into sparks. The black wings connected with gray translucent skin to a large black body, heavily muscled and scaled. The dragon reared back on its hind legs and slammed the ground, eyes and mouth a blazing yellow. Donald sent a Blizzara spell at the dragon, who brushed it off like nothing. Sora went after the head as Beast charged forward, his roars echoing off the stone walls.

“Step aside!” he said. His claws dug into the dragon’s flesh. The dragon screeched and spun, knocking them all back with her tail. The dragon’s mouth foamed with green flame and it spew fire from its mouth, setting the room ablaze. Goofy threw his shield at her, but it only enraged the monster further. Donald continued shooting Blizzara spells to try to dampen the fire, while Sora searched for a way over the flames. He whirled around, his eyes settling on the thick vines lining the walls and started climbing. The dragons screeched, Beast having made it angry enough. It reared back on its hind legs, conjuring fire at the base of its neck. The fireballs flew through the air towards Sora. Finding the highest point of the vines, Sora saw the fireballs coming at him. He sent a Blizzara spell, but it only took out half of them. Donald saw this and conjured an Aero spell around Sora, protecting him from the rest of the fire. As Beast distracted the dragon, Sora kicked off the wall spiraling towards the creature. He spins and his Keyblade missed the dragon but something went through the dragon, who thrashes in pain before crashing to the floor, sending ashes into the air. It was your dagger! You were able to get free of your binds and able to use you dagger. You still felt weak and ended up fainting but Beast caught you before you hit the ground. The thorny vines surrounding the room burst into green flame and disappeared as Maleficent left nothing but her torn cloak behind. Riku walked over it.

“How ironic. She was just another puppet after all,” he said. 

“What?” Donald asked. 

“The Heartless were using Maleficent from the beginning. She failed to notice the darkness in her heart eating away at her. A fitting end for such a fool.” He grounded his foot into the floor and the cloak disappeared. He backed away into a corridor of darkness. Sora found a summon gem and they returned to the Castle Chapel, where a hidden entrance appeared. They followed it to the Grand Hall, where they see the princesses encapsulated. They ran up the stairs to the main area in front of the great heart, where Kairi slept. A barrier prevented you, Beast and Goofy’s entry, to Donald’s surprise.

“Kairi!” Sora said as he rushed over and knelt beside her, lifting her into his arms.

“Kairi! Kairi! Open your eyes!” he said as he gently shook her.

“It’s no use,” Riku said. Sora looked up, seeing Riku sitting above the great heart.

“That girl has lost her heart. She cannot wake up,” he said. Sora set Kairi down softly, sensing the darkness in Riku’s voice.

“What? You… You’re not Riku,” he said. 

“The Keyhole cannot be completed so long as the last princess of heart and the spirit princess still sleeps,” Riku said. He dropped down off his seat, falling in front of the dark depths.

“The princess…? Kairi’s a princess? And so is (Y/N)?” Sora asked.

“Yes, and without their power, the Keyhole will remain incomplete. It is time they awakened. Although, it seems like (Y/N) has done that.” Sora looked at Beast and Goofy and saw you looking at him with very weak eyes.

“Sora...” you said. Sora clenched his teeth and looked back at Riku. 

“Whoever you are, let Riku go! Give him back his heart!” he said. 

“But first, you must give the princess back her heart,” Riku said. He pointed his Keyblade at Sora, who clutched his chest and fell to the floor, catching himself.

“Sora!” you and Donald said. 

“What’s—” Sora asked.

“Don’t you see yet?” Riku asked. He descended the stairs in their direction.

“The princess’s heart is responding. It has been there all along. Kairi’s heart rests within you!” he said. 

“Kairi… Kairi’s inside me?” Sora asked. He looked down at her body.

“I know all that there is to know,” Riku said. 

“Tell me. Who are you?” Sora asked. Riku smirked.

“It is I, Ansem, the seeker of darkness!” he said. 

To be continued...
