Divorce Saga Domon - A Haunted Honk Prequel

Hello Internet Stranger looking up G Gundam on Tumblr dot com!

This is an idea for a fic set in an Alternate Universe involving Queer Non-Canon Relationships between the characters of the series.

If you are not looking for this content please scroll on.

If you ARE looking for this content - and you're ok with reading my and other's Headcanons for this Alternate Universe I've haphazardly spun up -

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

Ended up outlining a completely different fic as a Segway for an explanation instead of making progress on the Royal Flush Haunted Honk AU's Clown Motel Fic like I wanted to but uh....

For y'all's review for the AU: A Prequel Outline - Divorce Saga Domon

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

Hey real quick - I'm thinking of maybe changing the timeline to 2 years post canon as opposed to 3 years and change post canon.

The reason being: I had a thought that this scene could either be part if the fic or if it's getting to big then it could be a stand alone tie-in prequel fic as part of this AU but - like

Immediately Post Divorce Domon Needs Space and runs off. As one does. And he runs to Earth because he just wants to Get Lost for a while.

He has Argo smuggle him out to avoid detection.

Argo has Andrew help stow Domon in a storage hanger of a Neo Canadian supply ship that's returning to the US - they have trade often enough and share agricultural resources - which leads to Domon ending up in New York when he hits Earthside pavement.

He's privately worked on his English the last couple of months and after being dropped in New York with a different hairstyle, outfit, and accent he's unrecognizable. 

He considers making his way west to get some solitude in the wilderness, but something about that initial plan feels off now that he's on the ground.

Chibodee is also Earthside for a special series of prize fights aimed at raising charitable appeal for the US in the eyes of Neo Americans.

Domon decides to hit up Chibodee for a fight on a day between matches hoping it'll clear his head and give him the clarity to decide on a course of action. What ends up happening is an unexpected heart to heart via blows and a breakdown.

Domon is happy for Rain and Kyoji, and he knows it's not true; but he feels like he lost a piece of himself when his relationship with Rain fell apart.

Domon's instinct is to run after that but Chibodee knows this city and Domon doesn't hide out for long before Chibodee drags him back to his place to stay and just "Chill out and breathe. You don't have to be anyone but yourself here. You can take as long as you need to find out what everything changing means for you." Friends and teammates stick together.

So Domon spends a few weeks with Chibodee sparring and hanging out in New York. Chibodee does a frankly awesome job at containing his feelings because he's focusing on Domons feelings and being a good friend first and foremost. Whatever he's feeling can wait until after Domon is done going though it.

There's a bit of a twinge in Domon's heart as he leaves that he can't really place.

After he returns to Neo Japan and gets settled back into life with his family, The Dreams start.

They're mainly set in New York. Small things first like noticing Chibodee's smile and his eyes. Then sparring sessions that begin to turn lurid.

He thought these kinds of dreams would stop after he was married.... he doesn't know what to do about this.

I just figure it gives more clarity and sense of time for the journey from Comphet Marriage Dissolution to Feelings to Confession. Idk.

But I got stuck on a bit and then had this thought and needed to get it down before I lost it and it was so long it made sense to make it its own post as opposed to several replies.

The Maize and Clown Motel will probably still be 3 years and change post canon for clarification.

[whatevermakesyoubreak]

so i was watching hell’s paradise & i realized that these two are lowkey lira and illumi in a parallel universe, holy shit. like… the way senta loves and admires yuzuriha bc of her sense of freedom & admires her vivacious and carefree ways & the fact that she doesn’t lie to herself, takes no shame in her bloody, deception riddled career, and openly admits her selfishness. all while he’s doing the exact fucking opposite and forcing himself into a mold he doesn’t really fit in order to meet clan/family obligations?? ahhhh. it’s foreign, but also fascinating and admirable to him, his hands are just as soaked in blood as hers (well, kinda) but while the two women can manage to keep their smiles and their senses of selves despite the gruesome horrors they’re faced with, the men are cowardly at first glance and hidden behind layers and layers of masks (senta), or detached and disassociated from his emotions, but brutally efficient (illumi), both slowly but surely forgetting what it feels like to be human, let alone themselves, and they’re reminding the two men how to essentially live with themselves. not in an, “i can fix him!!” way, but LITERALLY by being their unfiltered and playful selves (even though these badass ladies both have real darkness underneath, but that’s besides the point) around them, and influencing them by literal proximity, essentially. but anyway, like— senta literally loves and admires yuzuriha to the point of envy due to her being everything he’s always needed to be??

THAT IS LIRA AND ILLUMI HELLOOOO???

(ok not obviously, because i clearly did not write hell’s paradise, but we’re just making fun comparisons here.)

my version of illumi and senta aren’t similar in the least, on the outside that is, but as i said, both have constantly lied to themselves, denied their true natures, and forced themselves into positions that are unnatural. senta had to become an executioner, while illumi quite literally had to gaslight himself into being a perfect assassin, the perfect son, etc. and convince himself that he had zero desires for his entire life, until that was quickly proven wrong in like, chapter 2. lol. my illumi has a sense of humor, genuine emotion, thoughts of his own, and a fucking attitude problem— but, it’s all covered up by a perfect mask of stoicism, the initial, almost reflexive spurning and avoidance of anything which might distract himself from that stoicism, and truly ignite his personal desires, as well as blind devotion to his duties. he split himself open and hollowed himself out long ago, but! he never, ever perfected the process, let alone completed it (i mean seriously, just look at all the zoldyck children, like?? NONE of them are ‘perfect,’ assassins by their OWN standards)— and frankly? i don’t think he wants to (in my story, at least). like— this man felt a whisper of connection/care with an equal/someone on his level that was (somewhat, given lira’s personality) genuine ONE TIME, and proceeded to absolutely FOLD, because he realizes that he is human (actually, the one who truly believes themselves to be an, ‘other,’ ‘subhuman,’ or, ‘inhuman,’ is actually lira, lmaooo narcissism go brrrr), that he does have needs and desires, and ultimately, illumi understands this, but he also knows he will immediately, instinctually reject any potential growth between them if he allows himself to dwell on these feelings, and he doesn’t want that. he wants them to stay just as they are and he is terrified to fuck it up— or, well, as terrified as illumi zoldyck could be, lol. instead, he ignores his feelings, or at least, keeps these thoughts buried deep within himself, constantly calling his relationship with lira a, “business relationship,” “partnership,” or, “companionship,” as opposed to what it actually is (while there is physical attraction there, illumi wants her and her abilities, and lira longs for a family, or just a place to call home— but they’re also acutely aware of this within eachother and they’re okay with it, as a relationship this twisted is genuinely the healthiest option for the two of them). however, despite them fully using each other, there is real connection and love there. illumi has already stated he admires how lira seems to have held on to a semblance of warmth, or something else intangible that he can’t quite put his finger on, despite her career, and yes, he is jealous of her, though he isn’t really aware of it. i believe that my version of him is surprisingly emotionally aware, but he still can’t quite understand that jealousy is the emotion he’s feeling— if that makes sense. especially since it’s not a poisonous, toxic jealousy, but more of, “omg i wish i was you so bad, you’re everything i’ve ever wanted to be, so i’m gonna do the next best thing and stalk u forever because i’m disgustingly obsessed with your entire existence and it’s better to bask in your light even if it makes me uncomfortable, than to ever be without you, bc that’s so much worse, and also have i mentioned that i literally want to cut you open and live inside your skin and become you yet? bc i do,” type shit. idk. i’m just rambling rn. idk if this even makes sense. go read sic infit on ao3 if this shit sounds fun to u. it’s linked in my pinned post.

ok bye. 🧍‍♀️

Walking with God: The Sacred Journey of Villeneuve’s Dune | The Heretical Sayyadina

"This is Paul’s path, this is Paul’s story, of what it means to walk with the Divine. Many are tempted to view this story as a curse, something that destroys not only the person walking the path, but the entire world around him. We may even be tempted to think that we are watching not a story of a man, but of a terrible and wretched god who will fall from grace — falling short of everyone’s expectations and self-made projections of him, a messiah made in a broken image who will not lead them into a better world, but a nightmarish one filled with the stench of violence and death. Only this is not Villeneuve’s Dune. We aren’t watching a fall from grace, but a fall towards grace. For we seem to be taking Paul’s godhood for granted, as something that can be torn down and defiled, yet we must remember that it is a part of him, something that is woven into his very genes. You can’t remove the man from the Divine, and you can’t remove the Divine from the man. And although it is true that the man will not be able to live up to the Divine, this is not to his shame, but to his glory. For it is a beautiful thing that a man is not God. When he realizes this, he becomes truly free. Not because he is free from God, but because he is freed to God. So, this isn’t about a collapse of Divinity within a man, but it is about a man collapsing into Divinity — because sometimes the path to heaven leads into the desert. When you walk with the Divine, wrestling with Him along the way, you are going to be made lame, but you will be given a new name. This is Paul’s story." | 💧 Continue Reading on my Substack.

Tmp BIG spoilers I'm just gonna put it in the tags since I have early access

[candycryptids]

Ok, sideblog has OFFICIALLY run the full Queue, so now my notifications will stop blowing tf up and I can safely say that everything* is up on @aetherial-slumber for ease of searching/archiving

But again; this blog (Candycryptids) is changing 0%, stuff is still gonna get posted up here and reblogs are still going here n whatnot :T so technically, nobody has to do anything 🎉✨ All the sideblog is going to really do, is be the place I reblog personal lore/Gposes/Character Asks to, so I stop losing the damn things. Yknow how it is. But I think I said I’d make a post when it had finished running the gauntlet, so here’s that post.

*I left out like a few gposes for radical differences between characters original vibe and characters now vibe, where my original concept morphed without any real lines drawn ‘in canon’ to make it cohesive. Yknow how it is. Nothings gotten deleted though it’s all still kicking around.

Sometimes, you just need a reminder.

‼️🚨THIS IS HORRIBLE QUALITY. THE REST OF IT IS BETTER, I PROMISE.🚨‼️ SO IT BEGINS.
