#prince rao

"Rao," Aditya called out. "I dreamt of you." ... "I saw your eyes, shining like stars."

("What had happened, to make them shine?")

"I don't know," Aditya said. "But Rao- perhaps one day we'll meet again, on the other side of this war, and you will be able to tell me."

---

"I know now," Aditya said. "Why I dreamt of you as I did. Don't forget what stars are, Rao."

---

What is a star, Rao thought, in Aditya's slurred, smiling voice, but distant fire, reaching for you across worlds?

[noona96n]

Aditya is the Sun

no, seriously, Aditya is អាទិត្យ which means the Sun (in my language)

sick & twisted that Aditya is literally the Sun and he dies by self-immolation... for him to go out in flames, for him to ask Rao to remember the stars... it's cruel, it's -

he's the star; he's Rao's star

he's the Sun

Thinking about the hypothetical discourse Rudy Rocks would have if it had a fandom

[paperback-rascal]

This drawing is based on a Game Boy mom meme, but except of a mother beating a Super Mario Land level for her kids, it's a retired, legendary-military-general-turned-a-local-sheriff helping a fiend prince beat a level of a scaveneged, gameboy advance game, the teen struggled with for a while now.

I feel like the Pandava sisters love Rudy. Like, he's their friend, he makes Mini happy. They do love him.

But they do NOT like him. On a certain level they can't stand his guts. Like, he has a strange ability to annoy them all at once. Aru can respect him as a pranking partner, but that's as far as it goes. Brynne's fight or fight response is triggered when he opens his mouth. Nikita's filled with a homicidal rage whenever she sees his outfits. Sheela just vibes with him. She finds it fun to play psychological games with him. An average conversation between the two goes somewhat like:

S: Hey, Rudy, have this perfectly normal drink that I haven't tampered with at all.

R, suspicious: Did.... you put something in this?

S: No, like I said, I haven't put laxatives in it at all. I just took it out of the fridge, poured it in the glass and I'm giving it to you.

R: ...no thanks.

He's paranoid. The drink is just a soda that, like Sheela had said, had not been tampered with at all.

Later:

M: Sheela why were you trying to poison my boyfriend???

S, to R: I WAS NOT YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE I WAS TRYING TO BE NICE TO MY FUTURE BROTHER IN LAW

M: ....Uh. [red in the face] just. Don't put laxatives in his soda.

I feel their relationship would be similar to what Orion and Celia have.

TPQ characters as Barbies and Kens

[it-is-a-fever-dream]

Drew Aiden again though it's quite bad 😭👍 He is totally not admiring Aru cause she just looks fine. Character design inspiration is by @itslopez on Instagram. Do check them out :D

[book-girl4evaaa]

Aru/Aiden (I don't know their ship name yet lol) headcannons please?

Of course! (The ship name is Aruden btw lol)

Ok we have a few which I've already posted separately but oh well

• after NoI, they would sleep with their phones ready to call each other in case they had a nightmare to comfort one another

• Aiden secretly likes lotr but would never admit it to Aru

• Aiden was going to confess earlier!!!! But he got the prophecy and couldn't, so both of them were feeling awful

• If one of them was ill, they would look after them. No matter what. Even if there was like, a billion dollars outside, they would stay in and look after eachother

• Aru's a Sabrina Carpenter fan and a Cone head, Aiden's a Livvie and a swiftie

• Aru gets Aiden flowers on valentine's day, and he gets her Swedish fish

• They have a bunch of "competitions" with each other (who can eat the most sweets/candy, who can run faster, ect)

• sometimes they'll go over to each others house trauma-dump, but it's nothing to do with the adventures they've had, but more familial issues.

• Aiden calls Brynne and Rudy in the middle of the night to talk about how awesome their gfs are. Aru and Mini and Hira do the same

• I'm not sure whether they'd go to the same college, but if they couldn't, they would do long distance for sure

• After a couple of years together, they would just say "I love you" randomly without any prompt

• Aiden was most definitely crushing on Aru between SoD and ToW

• their just so pookie I cantttttttt

And that's it! I hope you like them!

The Potatoes

Rudy: Aren’t you going to say, “have a nice day?” Brynne: I don’t care if you have a pulse, much less a nice day. Aru: watching their house burn down. Aru: Aru: starts filming Waddup, guys, welcome to my vlog, today's topic: how to get away with accidentally committing arson because you forgot Spaghetti O's cans are metal and thus non-microwavable! Step one: deny everything.

Aru: Sometimes, I don’t realize an event was traumatic until I tell it as a funny story and notice everyone is staring at me weird.

Aru, holding a toy lightsaber: I’m Darth Vader! Mini: I’m done with everyone’s bullshit.

Im in love with all of them, I SWEAR. They better make an Aru Shah movie or ELSE. Who's your favourite character? Mine would be Aiden or Brynne.

Aru Shah Characters As Taylor Swift Songs Because WHY NOT!

Aru: You're On Your Own, Kid

"You're on your own, kid. You always have been"

From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashesI gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this I hosted parties and starved my body

Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss

The jokes weren't funny, I took the money My friends from home don't know what to sayI looked around in a blood-soaked gown

And I saw something they can't take away

'Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned

Everything you lose is a step you take.

So make the moment and taste it You've got no reason to be afraid.”

Mini: Marjorie

"Never be so polite, you forget your power. Never wield such power, you forget to be polite"

Brynne: Vigilante Shit

"They say looks can kill and I might try. I don't dress for women. I don't dress for men. Lately I've been dressing for revenge."

Aiden: Cardigan

"Cause I knew you. Steppin' on the last train. Marked me like a bloodstain, I.

I knew you. Tried to change the ending. Peter losing Wendy, I. I knew you.

Leavin' like a father. Running like water, I.

And when you are young, they assume you know nothing."

Rudy: The Archer

“I've been the archer I've been the prey Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me)”

Sheela: The Best Day

“There is a video I found From back when I was three You set up a paint set in the kitchen And you're talking to me It's the age of princesses and pirate ships And the seven dwarfs And Daddy's smart And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world”

Nikita:

“Best believe I'm still bejeweled

When I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer

And when I meet the band

They ask, "Do you have a man?" I can still say, "I don't remember"

Familiarity breeds contempt Don't put me in the basement

When I want the penthouse of your heart

Diamonds in my eyesI polish up real, I polish up real nice”

Kara: Anti-Hero

“It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me At tea time, everybody agrees I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirrorIt must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy babyAnd I'm a monster on the hillToo big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite cityPierced through the heart, but never killed.”

Lightning Smoulder:

—

Aiden POV: Mine, Champagne Problems, Cornelia Street, The Great War

“Do you remember, we were sittin', there by the water? You put your arm around me for the first time You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter You are the best thing, that's ever been mine

Flash forward, and we're takin' on the world together And there's a drawer of my things at your place You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes.”

—

“One for the money, two for the show I never was ready, so I watch you go Sometimes you just don't know the answer 'Til someone's on their knees and asks you

"She would've made such a lovely bride What a shame she's fucked in the head, " they said But you'll find the real thing instead She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred.”

—

“We were a fresh page on the desk Filling in the blanks as we go As if the street lights pointed in an arrowhead Leading us home

And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends I'd never walk Cornelia Street again That's the kind of heartbreak time could never mend I'd never walk Cornelia Street again.”

—

“You drew up some good faith treaties I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone You said I have to trust more freely But diesel is desire, you were playin' with fire And maybe it's the past that's talkin' Screamin' from the crypt Tellin' me to punish you for things you never did So I justified it

~

It turned into something bigger Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I'd been betrayed Your finger on my hair pin triggers Soldier down on that icy ground Looked up at me with honor and truth Broken and blue, so I called off the troops That was the night I nearly lost you

I really thought I lost you.”

—

Aru POV: Enchanted, Gold Rush, You’re Losing Me

—

“This is me praying that This was the very first page Not where the story line ends My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon I was enchanted to meet you Please don't be in love with someone else Please don't have somebody waiting on you.”

—

“Cause I don't like a gold rush, gold rush I don't like anticipating my face in a red flush I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch Everybody wants you Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you Walk past, quick brush I don't like slow motion double vision in rose blush I don't like that falling feels like flying 'til the bone crush Everybody wants you But I don't like a gold rush.”

—

“How long could we be a sad song 'Til we were too far gone to bring back to life? I gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier Fighting in only your army Frontlines, don't you ignore meI'm the best thing at this party (You're losin' me) And I wouldn't marry me either A pathological people pleaser Who only wanted you to see her And I'm fadin', thinkin'

"Do something, babe, say something" (say something) "Lose something, babe, risk something" (you're losin' me) "Choose something, babe, I got nothing (got nothing) To believe Unless you're choosin' me.”

—

Snake Of Death:

—

Mini POV: Midnight Rain, Lover

—

“'Cause he was sunshine I was midnight rain He wanted it comfortable I wanted that pain He wanted a bride I was making my own name Chasing that fame He stayed the same All of me changed Like midnight.”

—

“Ladies and gentlemen, will you please stand? With every guitar string scar on my hand I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover

My heart's been borrowed and yours has been blue All's well that ends well to end up with you Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover.”

—

Rudy POV: Willow

—

“Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind (oh) Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneaking in As if you were a mythical thing Like you were a trophy or a champion ring And there was one prize I'd cheat to win The more that you say The less I know Wherever you stray I follow I'm begging for you to take my hand Wreck my plans That's my man.”

—

Hirynne:

—

Hira POV: Love Story

—

“Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"

—

Brynne POV: Fearless

—

“And I don't know how it gets better than this You take my hand and drag me head first Fearless And I don't know why But with you I'd dance in a storm  In my best dress Fearless.”
