Yeargh..!! Here is my submission to @duck_in_a_bucket ‘s character creation contest!! To explain a little bit, I created a little Sandwing kid named Griffen! He’s probably about pre-teen age and often wants to ‘prove’ himself, having a pretty stoic and cool boy attitude when he’s really just a rebellious youngster mixed up with a rag tag crowd. I based him off of colored canyons and a little bit of cowboys! Now, onto the story ✨ (which can be changed or adjusted by Duck in any way shape or form.)

-

Story: Griffen was a hatchling when his parents got mixed up in the wrong crowd, and as a result faced a lot of hardship in life. Because of his step-father’s horrible nature and neglect from a worn out mom he fled to find better things in life. This lead him to the MudWing Kingdom where he was promptly arrested and charged with stealing a cow, fortunately for him he managed an escape and wearily made his way to the beaches of the SeaWing Kingdom where he met the crew! Pretty new himself he is eager to rise the ranks and become a super cool pirate, although not realizing life on the sea might not be the best for a youngster. His claws are stained from ammunition powder and he looks up to the SandWing prince (often copying him) due to their connection in species, on the other hand he’s TERRIFIED of the MudWing troop. Overall he’s a cocky, annoying kid who is in a ‘coming of age’ story currently ^^ Hope you enjoy! ❤️(BTW he wears a vest to sheild from explosions, cloth to keep frill out of his face, and crooked tail from it being stepped on!!)

I promise I’ll never forget this. You better not.

I just realised Ekko says 'pretend like it's the first time' because it's literally his first time, like not even with Powder, mans probably was too focused in running the Firelights that he didn't have time for relationships

[khazzman]

Ekko never tells anyone about that world.

When Vi and Caitlyn have him over to that big fancy house and they all sit down for a nice simple dinner, Vi asks him what happened to him. So he lies. He makes up some complicated, jargon-filled explanation that frankly only Heimerdinger or Jayce could see through.

He makes it sound as though he didn't live a few days in paradise, where he saw how beautiful Zaun could be, how loving a community could be. He makes it sound as though he hasn't changed, that he didn't walk in the shoes of Ekko, the happy inventor, and is still Ekko, the Boy Savior.

Vi buys it, laughing it off as "hextech-bullshit" but he can feel Caitlyn's eye boring into him. He knows that she knows he is lying. But she doesn't say anything. She just leans back and sips her wine, diverting her attention entirely back to Vi.

And that's good for Ekko. Vi deserves to be someone else's whole world. She's already done that enough for other people. And the universe has punished her enough for it.

No, Ekko doesn't tell her that in a world where she dies, everything falls into place. That Vander and Benzo and Mylo and Claggor all live happy lives. That there is no gang war or strife in the Lanes. That Silco, the foul villain of their story, now lives a humble life with his best friend. That there is no Jinx, only Powder, who loves working at the Last Drop and making little inventions to help her friends.

And he definitely doesn't tell her that the world where she dies is the happiest he has ever felt. Because Vi doesn't deserve that. She doesn't deserve any of it.

After drinks and shared memories, he hugs her goodnight and walks off down the streets of Piltover, heading for Zaun. As it starts to rain, he wonders if maybe he was a fool to leave that world. If he is an idiot for giving up everything he ever wanted for a world that even now is still broken and unfair.

It's when he gets to the bridge that he makes up his mind.

No. He wasn't. Because Vi still needed him. Because the Firelights still needed him. Because Pow- Jinx still needed him. Because he is the Boy Savior.

And Saviors give up their lives, even the perfect ones, for others.

No matter how the world tries to break you, protect the family.

ok, i absolutely adore the bad sans fae

but for the life of me, i can’t remember if there are any Aggre fae asks. and if there’s not any, well, that’s just a crime. a crime i’d like to rectify, if that’s alright :3

Sans seems like your average fae. Perhaps friendlier than usual. Particularly good with words, he has a thing for silly pranks, harmless practical jokes like swapping your salt for sugar and turning your hair different colours. He really enjoys poetry and wordplay, and would love to hear you sing - and if you can outsmart him, he'll be absolutely delighted.

... Under the surface, though, he's got quite the mean streak. He's the old kind of trickster; not quite as old as Farmer, but absolutely the kind of fae people genuinely used to fear. The kind that could trick a cow out of her udders, or a cat out of its tail, the kind you'd use salt and rowan and thistles to ward away. He'd never trick you, though! You're his favourite. And those days are behind him, obviously. He'd never lie to you, look at his cute face.

Let's just hope no one messes around with his favourite.

Red is a high-ranking member of the Summer court, because of his incredible skill with metalworking. His magical swords, charmed rings, intricately carved chestplates, beaded necklaces and wing cuffs are highly sought after items in both courts. Raw metal can burn fae, so most avoid it... and yet, despite the cascade of scars decorating his hands and arms, Red just covers up with gloves and keeps working. His soft spot for humans means some of his magical items wind their way the pockets of weary or down-on-their-luck travellers.

He'll flirt by making you beautiful things. Bracelets, earrings, circlets, you might even find he's woven protective charms into them to keep dangerous/pesky fae (like Sans) away. He's good with his words, and it's not just his forge that burns hot and bright... why don't you come pay him a visit sometime? Wear that necklace he made you. Just that.

Skull is a rare case of a fae who wanders, quite happily, back and forth between the two realms. He likes the light of the Summer realm, but the solitude of Winter. Given his size, stature and intimidating face, he often finds himself being hired out to be some random fae's temporary muscle - basically, he's the fae equivalent of a sellsword. Somehow he's managed to work his way up the ranks, and it's not uncommon to see him at the sides of fae nobility during big festivals. He wears armour Red makes just for him (the two often find themselves working at the behest of the same client) and carries around a massive, beautifully engraved battle axe.

Once he sees you, it doesn't matter who tries to hire him. Because from that moment on, in his mind, he's sworn himself to you entirely. Human or fae, he'll follow you around, protecting you regardless of rain or shine. And given that he doesn't mind either Winter or Summer, there's nowhere you can go he won't follow to keep you safe.

There's always a Happy Ending... Somewhere

On a completely unrelated note...just realised that the necklace is Ekko and Powder's faces.

And Vander has VI tattooed on his wrist in memory of Violet.

ARRRRRIBA

THANK YOU NETFLIX SPAIN

[jellyfishcandyy]

being a timebomb fan in these trying times is so detrimentally hazardous because one second, I'm looking at a wholesome fanart or edit of baby timebomb playing together and the literal next moment, I'd see someone bring up the fact that Jinx calls Ekko 'boy saviour' because he tried to save her from silco and it's like a lethal shot into my psyche

[beif0ngs]

Sometimes taking a leap forward means... leaving a few things behind.
