Do you think Ace if he had ever gotten the chance to know Law and Luffy’s “Alliance” (gayness) he would’ve been super protective or anything? Or just chill as hell??

I think he would have thought it’s the funniest thing?? Like ‘are you kidding me my silly brother found the world’s biggest stick in the mud and was like hey I’ll take that one’?? Infinite teasing that would only ever get to law, either because luffy doesn’t find any of it embarrassing or because it goes right over his head. I think the asl bros have a level of trust in each other that would bypass the ‘overprotective brother’ — they trust each other’s judgement (even the babiest of bros). Getting a new easy target to harass? That’s some good shit

That's What It Takes To Be Infinite (Commission for shadybelievercat)

Want to request for a commission? Start Here!

It has been months since the jackal had seen Aster, and it was starting to toll on him. The bat and he had gotten close under his persona “Ruby”, but that all changed after Infinite was caught by Sonic and his resistance. 

“You… It was you who…” 

“How could you…” 

“Aster…” 

“HOW COULD YOU?!” 

The thought of that memory made his blood run cold and his heartache. Infinite truly regretted the war, and only wanted justice for his fallen squad… His family. Once he was reformed and served his time with the resistance, he swore that he would never hurt anyone again. But alas, like most promises, he couldn’t keep it. 

The jackal helped another civilian out of the rubble of a crushed building in Station Square, making sure to guide them toward the large group of medics that were just up ahead, ready to treat the injured. 

But that’s when he heard it. 

Gunshots, not too far from where he was posted. 

Infinite whipped his head around as his heterochromatic eyes widened, not expecting anyone else to be near this area due to all of the destruction. He quickly looked back and forth between the sounds and up ahead with the group. He needed to make a decision, fast. 

He turned to the civilian and pointed up ahead, telling them to run and don’t look back. After he did that, he rushed towards the gunfire, his heart racing and his speed picking up. Someone could be injured, someone could need his help. 

The ruined and empty buildings towered over him, debris scattered all over the road that he had to jump over and slide under. These streets used to be filled with life. Peaceful life. But now all it was filled with was memories and horrible events due to the war that the jackal took part in. 

He slid around a corner of a building, seeing the center of Station Square littered with terrorists shooting at a fast-flying civilian. With focused eyes, Infinite was able to spot them easily, a part of him wished he hadn’t. 

It was Aster. The bat held a growl on his scarred face as he zipped around, it wasn’t unusual that he was here; After all, Station Square was where he resided. Aster was more of a neutral party, in the war or in general. A wallflower of sorts. He found heroes like Sonic to be reckless and loud, but still respected them and their beliefs, as well as villains like Dr. Eggman and… Well… Infinite. The bat would have rather spent his time in the library, reading a good book and enjoying the peaceful serenity of silence. 

So why was he here? Fighting off terrorists and risking his own life? If it was Aster’s choice between fight or flight, the bat would choose flight every time. 

The jackal never got to answer his question, because a terrorist with a fortunate shot, was able to clip one of the bat’s wings, a large gash in the skin right between the 4th and 5th digit of the left wing. Aster cried in pain as his eyes widened, falling to the ground with a loud grunt while tumbling to a stop. 

He slowly got on his elbows and glanced behind him with wide, frightful eyes. He stretched out his wing with all of his might, ignoring the burning pain and the dread that was creeping into his body. 

The bat let out a shudder, suddenly feeling like a ton of weight was just collapsing on him and he couldn’t get enough air into his lungs. His whole body started to shake and his hearing started to go out. He was beginning to dissociate. 

His wings were everything to him. They were a part of him, his life, they were a part of his soul. And now, one of them was destroyed. Broken. He was broken. He was losing himself. Just like when he was first captured by the fake resistance being run by terrorists during the war. 

Because of his dissociation, he didn’t notice a terrorist walking up to him, his gun trained on the bat and his finger on the trigger. 

But the jackal wouldn’t let Aster get hurt anymore. He would not stand for it. Quickly stepping in, Infinite conjured up illusions of the whole resistance squad with powers from the Phantom Ruby, glaring straight at the group with a loud growl. The terrorists soon trained all their weapons at the illusions and started taking fire, giving the jackal the perfect opportunity to slip by and quickly run towards the injured bat. 

Usually, he would ask if it was alright for him to pick up, let alone touch Aster, but he feared that the terrorist group would soon figure out Infinite’s little party trick. So, he quickly scooped up the bat and started running away from the fight, his heterochromatic eyes scanning around to find a place to calm him down. 

There was a desolate alleyway to his right. 

Perfect. 

The jackal quickly ran over and into the far corner, putting Aster down. The bat soon realized what was going on and quickly started to punch and scoot away from Infinite, his purple and gray eyes full of tears as he yelled; “GET AWAY FROM ME!” 

“Shh! Aster! It’s all right now-” 

“STOP! GET BACK!”

“Aster, please! Someone could hear us!”

“GET AWAY!”

Infinite quickly grabbed the bat’s scarred wrists and gently started to rub a comforting thumb over them. They stood out from the bat’s dark purple fur. “Aster, look at me.” 

Once the bat ignored his request, shutting his tearful eyes and shaking his head, his bangs swaying over his eyes, Infinite tried once more, a little more stern this time, wanting nothing more than to soothe the poor, injured bat. “Look at me.” 

Aster let out a heavy, shaky sob, but managed to peer his eyes open and slowly meet the jackal’s eyes, who held nothing but kindness and comfort. His heart was racing and his breath was still uneven, but at least Infinite was making progress.

“There we go… Steady your breathing… In and out…” Infinite started to slowly inhale and exhale, giving examples for the poor, injured bat, the latter doing his very best to try and follow suit. It was slow, but his heart rate was turning back to normal, and his breathing was less irregular, so Aster slowly slid his eyes shut. 

“You’re alright now. You are safe. If you go to sector 7, there is a group of medics there. They can help you.” 

There was a pause, a brief moment of the serenity of silence that the bat oh so enjoyed. 

“I’m sorry.” 

Aster opened his eyes back up, seeing that Infinite was now gone like a ghost in the wind. Even though he was half blind thanks to the scar on his left eye, he knew his mind wasn’t playing tricks on him. The jackal truly left him alone. 

It was a cruel twist of fate, but fate none of the less. The bat hated Infinite after what he had done to his friends… To himself. He wished that the jackal would have just left him alone, but apparently, that was asking for too much. 

Still… Those words kept ringing in his mind. 

“I’m sorry.” 

Was he though? Was Infinite truly sorry for what he had done? Honestly, Aster didn’t know. His feelings were far too conflicted right now, and the pain in his wing was getting worse. He needed to get it patched up. 

‘Sector 7…’ He reminded himself in his mind. His ear twitched as he bit his lip, brows furrowing. He wondered if Infinite would be there and if it was a good idea to go with the resistance. He couldn’t trust them… Not after what happened with the terrorists. 

He let out a groan and leaned the back of his head towards the brick wall, staring up into the now sun-setting sky. The bat decided that he would go meet the medics. 

But in a little while. 

After all, right now, he just needed to hear peaceful silence and watch the blue and pink sky.

“...gosh, dang it.”

[Mod: Happy Halloween, everybody!

We’re heading to a time skip soon, but I plan on skipping to Monday, so we won’t be seeing Isabella’s Halloween. Many apologies for that.

Also - to answer @shadybelievercat’s question:

The day this takes place in is on a Friday, specifically the day before Halloween. Though this takes place the same year as the show did, which is 2007, therefore Halloween for them takes place on a Wednesday and NOT a Saturday, I’m gonna treat the timelines as if they were this year. For now. It’ll jump around of course.

Speaking of which though - I won’t be answering any questions on a certain pandemic. There’s no reason to, since this blog takes place way before all that anyway.]
