After the inevitable conflict between Lyric and Myrah mom ends their family dinner, Mel visits his old stomping grounds. The only good thing to come out of his parent's divorce as a child was moving to San Sequoia and meeting his friends and future wife. He really can't imagine his life without his tribe.

Bonus: NOOOOO absolutely not
Tumblr media
Loren: Hello?
Mel: Hey, Loren.
Loren: Hey.
Mel: Guess where I am.
Loren: Beats me. Where are you?
Mel: We used to loiter at the old pier when we were kids—me, you, and Aiden. Our rounds of tic-tac-toe and hangman are still etched into the old, rotten wood. Aiden didn’t know how to spell Mila Kunis and spelled it Mila Kunes, so we were playing for like an hour trying to figure out what the hell the word was. [chuckles] Remember?
Loren: Yeah. I remember, Mel.
Mel: Yeah...
Mel: Listen... I wanted to call because we haven’t talked about what happened.
Loren: I really don’t know what to say.
Mel: No, I know. I just- I wanted you and Maeve to know how sorry we are about all of this. You know we raised Selene better than that, and it really surprised and disappointed us.
Loren: We were disappointed too.
Loren: As a parent, you prepare for the big heartbreak, but I never imagined it would hurt like this. We’re having to rebuild our daughter from the ground up. It’s devastating. She didn’t deserve that.
Mel: I know. I feel so awful...
Loren: [sighs] You didn’t do anything, Mel. Selene is an adult, and she made a choice. A fucked-up one, but a choice nonetheless, and now we process and we move on.
Mel: Selene’s dropping from the tour.
Loren: Zoey would hate that. Despite everything, she would still want Selene to compete. At least to kick her ass, anyway.
Mel: Zoey’s an amazing young woman. You and Maeve did a great job.
Loren: Selene’s a good kid, too. A dumbass, but good. I don’t hate her. I love her like she’s my own. I just need her to work through her shit.
Mel: And are we still cool?
Loren: Yesss, Starboy. We’re cool. But if your daughter comes within 10 feet of mine, I’m going to kick her and your ass—at least for now.
Mel: Understood.
Loren: I love you, Mel. You and Nina are our family, always, ok? Anyway, I’m going to turn in for the night. Talk to you later-
Mel: Wait, there’s one more thing! My mom married a man half her age and didn’t tell anyone.
Loren: Fucking Myrah! [laughs]
Mel: Ok, there’s another. Olive is doing the same thing, except it’s a rich milf or something?
Loren: How many times do I have to tell you and Aiden, they’re not Milfs when they’re our age.
Mel: [chuckles] Night Loren.
Nina: Hey, you. Ready to head back to the hotel?
Mel: Yeah, but sit with me first. I just got off the phone with Loren. We were talking about Selene.
Nina: How’d that go?
Mel: We’re good. Just wish our kids were. I feel like the twins don’t think they can come and talk to us anymore.
Nina: Or maybe they’re in their 20s and they think they have it all figured out. Sounds familiar?
Mel: Is it really the same thing over and over?
Nina: But this time, we’re going to make sure we’re listening. If there’s anything I learned about your mother and Lyric, it’s that our children will always want to be heard. We should give them that when they’re ready to speak.
Mel: You always know what to say.
Nina: I learned by loving you.
Mel: Off subject but...remember that thing I said I always wanted to do?
Nina: Mel. It’s like...11pm at night.
Mel: Come onnn, nobody’s around. It’ll be quick.
Nina: Once you get started, you never want to stop.
Mel: We’ll use a safe word. The moment you want to stop, we’ll stop.
Nina: Just be gentle. We’re not in our 20s anymore.
Mel: We’ll go nice and slow.
Mel: [panting] See? That wasn’t so bad.
Nina: [breathlessly] Easy... for you to say...what happened to nice and slow?
Mel: Want to go again?
Nina: ...yeah, but hurry before someone calls the police. [laughs]
Mel: Hold on tight.
Nina: [squeals] Wait! I’m slipping!!
Mel: I said hold on! I’m gonna do a big spin.
Nina: OK! OK! Go!

{12:01 am}: Han Jisung
“Babe babe babe!” Jisung called out to you excitedly as soon as he got through the door that night. He fumbled taking his shoes off at the entrance, almost tripping himself in the process before beelining it straight for your bedroom where he knew you were waiting. He flopped down on his stomach beside you on the bed, causing you to bounce slightly. “Did you see my stage today?”
“Yes, I did my starboy,” you giggled at his energeticness and cupped his cheek to pull him up to plant a kiss on his soft lips. You could feel him relax against your touch as his body sagged into the bed. When you pulled away, he was gazing up at you through his silver bangs, the love in his eyes making them shiny. You brushed the hair out of his eyes, trying to ignore the way his heart eyes made you blush. “You always make me proud, Sungie.”
Now a slight pink bloomed on his round cheeks that were still adorned with little star stickers, and you took the time to brush your thumb over each one. His eyes fluttered shut, only opening again when you pulled away. “I have a surprise for you,” he whispered, now with a cheeky smile.
“Mmm, should I be worried?”
“Depends,” he said with a nonchalant shrug. “How do you feel about being my stargirl?” He wiggled his eyebrows at you before reaching into his back pocket and pulling out the star sticker sheet. “I couldn’t help thinking how cute you’d look with the stars on your face, so I brought them home to test that theory.”
You bit your lip to try and contain the smile that threatened to split your face and make your cheeks hurt but still failed as they turned up at the corners, “of course I’ll be your stargirl, baby.”
He mirrored your wide smile as you both sat up on your knees and faced each other. You adored the nail polish that he wore as you watched him carefully peel the stickers from the pack one by one, thinking back on all the times he’d ask you to paint them for him. It was always a battle trying to get him to hold still for that long as he excitedly wiggled in place or complained it tickled too much when you’d blow on them to dry it faster. But he still would ask you to paint them every time, and how could you tell him no?
His lips formed a pout as he thought about the best placement on your face. “Hm, I think these colors go with your eyes,” He said as he gently placed them at the corners of your eyes in threes. He sat back and admired his work, “I knew it, you look the cutest babe.”
“I do?”
“Mhmm,” he nodded proudly.
“Cuter than you?” You teased.
He scoffed, “ is that even a question? Of course, you’re cuter.”
“I’d have to disagree,” you smiled as you held his face in your hands and squished his cheeks. He clutched your wrists and stroked his thumbs over the back of your hands, and he leaned in to steal another kiss.
“I’d say we’re the cutest.” He muttered against your lips before pulling you in deeper.

Can people stop complaining about Starboy challenge
I think it's a little odd there's a push to say Starboy and Asha are incest. Like, you take such harmless fun and try to twist it and make the worst out of people.
Starboy had MANY concepts. He was never just "one" concept. At one point he was literally just a star in the shape of a boy. In another, shapeshifting animals. In another, they went with the "younger grandfather" route. And finally, they arrived on the marketable star plushie. That's 4 that we know of.
You can see in the multiple concept arts that not all Starboy's are the same. Not all Starboys were meant to represent her grandfather. (and he's literally not her grandfather anyway but whatever I can understand the ick in that case... IF that was the version people were shipping Asha with, which they aren't)
Either way, WISH still would've been a better movie whether Starboy was a romantic interest OR if he was the embodiment of her grandfather. Bot interpretations are a million times better than the final product so why do people have their panties in a twist?
If you hate the romantic not-grandfather Starboy concept and prefer the grandfather one.... then why don't YOU put some fan content out there about the power of familial love and how even beyond the (assuming?) grave her grandfather found a way to help her and jumped into danger with her to save everyone?
It's still a really fun story either way so.... what is everyone's deal?
Like, I'm a family feels truther all day but you know what? All you guys do is complain and haven't put in any work to make your interpretation of the third Starboy concept a reality.
If you've ever written an original story before, surely you know drastic things can change? I've been writing an original story on my own time for years and the amount of times I've changed the origin of some characters based on how the rest of the plot is developing or how I think it would work better.... it's a lot? Sometimes I create new characters out of thin air just for one purpose. Sometimes full out characters I made completely disappear. Sometimes they change races or colors or even genders. That's how the creative process works.
Starboy is at least 4 different people/beings. Most people liked what seemed to be the original version, aka not-grandfather potential romantic interest.
To summarize, people need to firstly, calm down. Secondly, mind your own business and stop trying to squash other people's fun when they expand on the concept of when Starboy was just Starboy and not yet reimagined (probably for the billionth time) into someone else.
Internet discourse has rotted peoples ability to mind their own business, read, and get an imagination I swear

i know i probably sound deranged but . hear me out . charlos pacific rim au . so 
 jaegar engineer carlos, who was dragged into becoming a pilot even though he could just strategise & build as the brightest to come out of there in years ( even though there’s nico & daniil & mitch & he can only drive himself mad watching them fall from the sky, crash into the water in graves that he designed, scribbles on notes & plans scattered across the table & grief scrawled into the margins of yet another design ).
but the higher–ups are looking for anyone & everyone — & he winds up being drift compatible with lando ( except it’s not the first person he’s compatible with, having paired with redbull’s starboy max years ago & broken their link himself at the last possible minute to avoid being forced into the field, knows how fragile these things are ), made to don an orange uniform & convince everyone that it’s fine, that their meagre efforts are going to stave off the end of the world sooner rather than later. & that’s easy-going & nice, but it’s a stop-gap all the same ( he knows they want someone better, the mclaren unit has a bone to pick & determination to prove they are still the best at this, that they want someone proven to kill & take down kaiju & get the job done in a way he’s only slowly, unbalancedly & fumbling through, figuring out how to ). & though they have great success, he’s also terrified about why it feels so deliberate, why everything feels like such a process, why they say you can’t hide anything in the drift & yet lando has not seen half the things that haunt him in his sleep.
on the other side of the world, there’s ferrari’s star pilot, charles, fresh off a partnership that had initially gone so well but ended so badly that even though they were trying their absolute best, sent their jaeger out of control & into the sea & seb with a patchwork of scars to some strategy related posting in sydney ( pardon the implied sebmark, i had to ) & him to fend off the cameras & questions about what’s wrong with the unit again. & there’s so much speculation, so many people wondering who will work wth charles — he can barely breathe ( not that he ever really could, because to don the colours he does also means some commitment to the bit, to burning til the very end ), runs the tests mechanically, as they put one person after another in front of him & everything comes up empty & he’s pleading every day to just let him solo pilot even though it’ll probably get him killed ( he just wants to go out, to prove himself & keep their shatterdome from falling apart, no matter how impossible it seems ) — but they’re so desperate that they’re testing other pilots, even the ones who are already drifting with someone else, because they can pull those pairings apart in a moment if they needed it somewhere else. thing is, he doesn’t really remember much about the first time they sparred — dark eyes and bracing against an immovable object and some dim recognition that oh is this lando’s co-pilot, moving back and forth like some sort of ebb and flow just like the surface of the ocean he’d slammed into all those months ago — or about the first time they’d attempted to drift in the simulation — blurs of colours and images and something weightless and effortless, opening his eyes and wondering why his mouth tastes like salt, like sea, like tears & the faintest hint of guilt and it feels like all the air’s been sucked clean from his lungs. ( congratulations, you’re compatible. congratulations, hope you hang in there longer & come out of it in fewer pieces than all the ones before you did. )
there is only so much space in this shatterdome. there is only so much space in your mind. & even though it goes so well, carlos a perfect co-pilot & the two of them are completing mission after mission successfully — it feels like they’ve never been able to fully close the space between the pons systems separating themselves when they drift, because after that first time, it was like everything vanished & drifting was only ever something smooth & easy. ( as though charles is very much rooted here, in this moment, and somehow carlos is reading the signal flares from a thousand miles away, and it drives him mad in the process, how someone so outwardly warm & emotional could feel so cold & always armed with a perfect distance in his mind. ) but the first advice they give to any pilot is to never chase the rabbit, to seek the memories & people in others’ minds ( to look into file after file and find them curiously blank and empty, trying to contact people long dead & gone ) — it’s advice that, in the end, charles doesn’t heed. ( i am rambling so much bc rip the meds & idk if this makes any sense but !! idk just want angsty charlos, fluorescent lights & the warmth of another person at the end of the world & just . learning to Understandâ„ąïž & be okay with being Perceivedâ„ąïž, that you could fall into the water together & feel like you're never coming up for air & still live, somehow )
first of all, i can’t tell you how excited i was when i got this. thank you so much for sharing your ideas.
“& grief scrawled into the margins of yet another design” FUCKED ME UP. engineer carlos getting used to the feeling that to create a machine is to get ready to grief. i would like to imagine a daniil that can’t pilot anymore because of a major injury and carlos writing to him every chance he has just because he feels like he owns that. he was the one that built the jaegar that daniil was in. maybe if he has changed this, or done that, or was just a little better here—
i love how you paired lando and carlos. imagining a very young and eager lando who grew up admiring pilots and dreaming of his own jaegar and taking down his first kaiju, and on the other side carlos, who didn’t want to be there, who was not supposed to be there, but it’s hard to find good pilots and the investments are getting scarce. so, as you said, they need to get help anywhere they can. “ yet lando has not seen half the things that haunt him in his sleep” YES. lando being to excited and so young that carlos is there mostly to help and guide him rather than create a real connection. lando doesn’t stop to Look at carlos’ mind.
“charles, fresh off a partnership that had initially gone so well but ended so badly” ooooh how i would pay bucks to see this written. i would die to see this. this would be amazing. your whole idea. your whole concept. everything is top notch. also, do not apologize for the implied sebmark. i love the implied sebmark. give me more. “not that he ever really could, because to don the colours he does also means some commitment to the bit, to burning til the very end” here, as soon as i read it, i had to stop and walk around the room. charles is a sacrificial lamb to ferrari in every universe. wearing rosso corsa as if it is blood on his hands. charles not feeling anything. mechanical. work. proving himself. red, red, red. then, sea. then salt. then other colors. then brown eyes. then something else. then another’s feelings in his chest. everything is so fast and then it just stops. just for a moment. then is fast again. i love how you described it, their first ride together, the way it’s nothing magical at the same time it is. it’s very mundane and routine like until it’s not.
i feel like charles has the knife here, he has the power to seek the rabbit, he has the upper hand, he has the power to use the knife to hurt carlos or to hand the knife for carlos to fend himself out of his little cave. but he can’t do anything with his knife. because carlos needs to let him in. and carlos can’t do that. carlos has lost too much, has too many names he carries as a reminder of his failure and he has read charles leclerc file, he knows about his dad, about the pilot that was his mentor, about sebastian, he can’t be another tale mark in the count of grief this boy has to carry.
and charles is having none of that. i don’t think it would be because he cares for carlos, at the begging, but mostly because he thinks that to be a better pilot to be the best one out there the biggest better jaegar and to take down kaijus, they need to know everything about each other: this was a problem with sebastian, he was too far away from charles, always keeping him on the brim. he won’t let it repeat again. he keeps pushing and pushing and pushing just to get to know Something. he needs to know. all while, forgetting that if carlos lets him in, charles will also be open. i don’t think charles would be realizing that until is too late. until he learns that to see someone bare open, with their chest exposed, is to also be vulnerable. the knife cuts both ways. you and i are one tear, one flesh and blood, one painful memory of the world, shared, like a grave. your heart beat in my ribs and mine in yours. intimacy in visceral violence but intimacy is sewing each other up after. to be perceived hurts, at first. you are forced to look at something you would rather hide. but then you are seen. it create a bond that transcends all other types of love, thus acting as the sole point of understanding for the other person in a world that cannot fathom what they’ve been through. you are in a room full of people and you feel like falling down. there’s a arm around you, supporting you, keeping you away from all the eyes, as you do so.
“that you could fall into the water together & feel like you're never coming up for air & still live, somehow” yeah. i need to sit down. this is— just. amazing. thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing this.

Wish Granted AU: Star: 🌟
Tumblr media
Yeah, I finally got to the boy! Took long enough, huh? 😂 So I dud make a short character inspiration from a reblog chain a few weeks ago, so I'll go more into Star's character here:
So, much like the film itself, Star comes to Earth because of Asha's wish was so powerful, and aids her save Rosas. However, for "Wish Granted", he has no idea how to actually grant her wish. She basically fills him in on what's going on, and agrees to help. But he doesn't really understand why they need help. From his point of view, most of the humans on this part of Earth, and especially in Rosas look happy enough. He's just utterly fascinated with the animals, the trees, Asha, and just experiencing what humans see everyday.
But then he visits the Hamlet (in an animal disguise) when Asha wants to say goodbye to her Saba and mother. Star sees how sick Sabino has gotten, and the fear Sakina has for her daughter going back into danger. The Starboy sees that Asha's wish is entirely to help her family and community. (Its greatly emphasized once he gets to Rosas itself too) He partially understands and gladly accepts the task to help her. Asha can't believe this magical boy is a Star, it should be impossible. But just as her father said, the stars are there to believe in possibility. Star here is the impossible, made possible! Its no wonder his loveable and joyous personality leads her to falling for him! 😆
Tumblr media
I took inspiration from this segment of the concept art book where they attempted to give plushie Star some kind of depth and character arc leftover from Starboy. They really tried to give Star something more than just being a toy, and Disney said "nah, a toy is good enough. Kids will love it." So Star's arc will be he starts off naive about the world and thinks everything is perfect. But once he starts seeing more of the people having other emotions other than happiness, he's processing how a human feels this. It hits harder when he actually feels a wish get destroyed, he feels their pain for a while after he connects with them. This is all going to connect to "At All Costs" when finally get that love confession scene! 😉
Now, my favorite part: POWERS!!! Star can shapeshift into different animals he sees, with his telltale sign of him being gold with white fur/hair. (Example image below) He's got a white six pointed star on his parts of his body that glow slightly, even in a human form, its just covered up by his black caped outfit.
Tumblr media
I still kind of hate that Disney actually thought Star was too similar Genie just because he changes into animals. Like, what are you talking about? (I actually thought of MK or Beast Boy more than Genie.) Yeah, Genie could do that too, but he also changed costumes, size, shape, face, broke the 4th wall and did impersonations of movie actors of the time. Star didn't do all that. Besides, YOU MADE MAUI CHANGE INTO ANIMALS AND APPROVED OF IT!
Rant aside, He can change into any animal, but only has one human form. That's not only because there's way too many variations of people for him to adapt and he's not at that level of power yet. He mainly choose this particular human form because.... he thought Asha would like it. (He even gets the cape idea after he sees a picture of Magnifico. He just LOVED how that looked) Think of it as a boy trying make himself look better for the girl he has a crush on. 😂 His design is inspired by these three pieces of concept art combined with a dash of a superhero vibe. (Superheroes are hardwired into my brain, I tried my best NOT to do that! 😂)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Star can make animals talk, at least for a limited time, like when be has his big introduction song and the forest animals are his band. Animals are naturally attracted to Star, because he literally radiates pure joy and love. Those little critters just adore him! Think of this scene here:
Tumblr media
One last thing to add is that once he's on Earth, and gets into Rosas, thus is when he gets the most attached to the planet. He has a big family with the stars, but he really wanted to be where the people are. He wants to see them dancing, ect...Meeting great people didn't just end with Asha, but also meeting the 7 Teens. He learns about their wishes as one desires, while confused on Simon's sleepiness/sadness. He actually attempts to heal Simon and can gain a new power. Star is not sure on how to react to Dahlia, who doesn't seem to have a wish. She seems happy cooking for the king (whom she has a crush on) and queen, no questions asked. Although, Dahlia does seem particularly curious about Star, even before finding out his magical side. She even tries to tell him to give up on granting Asha's wish, but he's definitely not doing that. 😂
When he meets the King and Queen, let's just say there's going to be a lot of angst/comedy with that. But when he has the mini stand off with Amaya. OH BOY, he's going to understand way more heavy emotions after meeting her...
(Star in this version is voiced by Jeremy Jordan, because he's a musical and VA legend! Plus he sounds so fun in every role he's in!)
Aaaand, that does it for Star! I mentioned in another post how when you look into his eyes, you can see microscopic galaxies or mini stars in eyes, like you can see the universe in his eyes! (When it gets to the At All Costs song, Asha can be seen in his eyes like she becomes part his universe) Any other bits will be revealed later, but I wanted to flesh the guy out here! He's a lot of fun to write and draw!
Now next up are the King, Queen and their ferocious yet spoiled pet Lynx! 😉

Tumblr media
Yes I’ve jumped on the dreaded bandwagon, here is my re-imagining of Valentino for my Disney Wish rewrite. 
Just to make this clear, I DON’T hate Wish as a film. In fact I find the film VERY over-hated; I personally don’t find it outright bad, just weak. So yes my rewrite will have all the original cut concepts that people prefer, predominantly Asha’s star boy love interest and Queen Amaya being a villain, with her and King Magnifico being an evil married couple Gomez and Morticia-style. But one other thing I didn’t particularly care for about Wish was Valentino, I just found him annoying and useless once he started talking. 
So here I’ve redesigned Valentino instead as a female goat named Amalthea, and she doesn’t talk the whole film (or maybe she does, but she'd have the voice of a child and not Valentino's inexplicable obnoxious adult voice). My thought process for the name change is that Amalthea is sometimes an alternate name for the goat constellation Capricorn (because Amalthea in Greek mythology was the name of the goat that nursed Zeus as a baby) which makes Asha’s connection to the stars and astronomy even more powerful. Amalthea’s role in the story also follows some original concepts for Valentino in which she constantly tries and fails to climb objects, symbolizing the theme of never giving up. In my rewrite she also leads an army of animals to fight against Magnifico and Amaya, also a scrapped idea with Valentino. 
And if anyone wants to hear my rewrite for the entire movie, welp feel free to read under the cut:
So in this version Magnifico has the magic ability to harness the power of the stars in order to grant his own wishes. Eventually he gains the power to grant his kingdom's wishes too, but goes it under the false guise of helping them when in reality he's only doing it to help himself get more powerful (ngl the whole idea of Magnifico accepting a wish and then holding it but then granting a random wish at a wish ceremony got kind of convoluted after a while) 
So Starboy enters the picture as a literal fallen star due to Magnifico abusing his power and sucking the power out of the stars causing them to die out quickly. And everything else from how Asha and the gang defeat Magnifico & Amaya I haven't thought out yet but you can probably see how my version is still trying to follow the movie's original message of "actually work to make your wishes come true and don't expect them to be granted." 
Also I might just cut out all of Asha's friends and only keep Dahlia who had the most contribution to the plot (I KNOW they're based off the seven dwarves but they were just severely undeveloped and too forgettable for me).

Tokyo Twilight.
[Prompt: Enemies to lovers(?), one bed trope, stolen glance trope, denial]
Series: Danganronpa Despair Time
Characters: Min Jeung, David Chiem
TW: None
[IMPLIED SPOILERS FOR DRDT CH2]
[A/N: Author's first time writing enemies to lovers with no prior experience, accepting of criticism on how to improve ^^]
The class had finally stepped foot off the plane after a long, ten hour flight, combined with the anxiety of having Teruko even existing near an aircraft. As part of a Hope's Peak Academy Reconstruction Program, they wanted to combine the classes to see how compatible they were with one another.
They set their stuff back in the dorms and get to exploring some of the streets and stores that Tokyo had to offer. The group explores the streets together until they decide to sit down for a drink somewhere.
"Hey, we should probably find a place to rest. We've been wandering around for hours now."
Teruko suggests, looking over at J, who's checking locations on their phone. Everyone else is debating and bickering about where to go, but a two decide to remain silent. As everyone is squabbling about where to go, a certain starboy steals a glance at a brunette who's been quiet since they landed here. He can't help but look at her every time he has the faintest excuse for it.
He can't help it. Min is very easy on the eyes. The way her voice sparks with annoyance and spite every time he throws a comment her way, her reaction to his playful teasings and meaningless petnames, all for the sake of getting under her skin. But... he seems to yearn for more than just her annoyance. He wishes to know her, to get into the mindset of someone as patient and tolerant as she is.
Min, on the other hand? She keeps herself in utter denial about being in love with David. While she knows he says and does everything to get under her skin, she keeps herself level-headed and doesn't give him the reaction he wants. She knows David gets a kick out of people reacting negatively to him. If she keeps herself above that, he won't be able to get that satisfaction. At the same time, she feels like she can understand David. She feels as though she can sympathize with him, his mentality, his thought process...
"Hurry up and decide already? We've been bickering here for far too long."
Arturo was getting antsy from all the blabbering going on among his classmates. That broke out into yet another, off topic back-and-forth. David snaps his fingers, getting Min's attention and gesturing her to come over as he pulls his phone from his pocket. Min walks over and peers over David's shoulder to see what he wants to show her. He found a location, a five minute walk from their current one. She nods in approval and they decide to pitch the idea out.
"You guys know there's a place literally down the street, right?"
The group falls into silence.
"... And you didn't say anything, why?"
Arei looks as though she's seconds away from mauling David, who has a very mischievous and teasing smirk on his face.
"It's fun to watch you all fuss about. Anywho, we should get going while we still have time."
The bluenett puts his phone away and starts walking, the rest following soon after. David keeps Min on edge, occasionally bumping her shoulder or brushing his pinky knuckle against her hand. He knows he's getting a rise out of her, he's absolutely loving it.
They eventually get there and they take a seat. Everyone is having a pretty alright time. Min is sat with Eden, just talking about the current situation. All the while, she can't keep her eyes off David. She tries desperately to keep her gaze elsewhere, but it always falls back onto him. Luckily David doesn't notice, since Min's hair covers her eyes. She's been in denial about her feelings with David.
While they do present as petty and sworn enemies in the eyes of everyone else, they do look out for one another behind closed doors. Through all the smoke and mirrors, there were moments where David would leave Min at peace to read or where Min would subtly fix David's loose strand of hair when no one was looking. They were trying to subtly hint to one another about their feelings, but they assumed the other was just trying to annoy them even more.
While Min didn't order much except for a strawberry milk tea, she noticed how David wasn't really feeling the black coffee he ordered. That thought would soon be interrupted.
"Min? Heey? Are you even listening?"
Eden called out, nudging Min's shoulder with her hand. The other snapped out of it, directing back at the smaller girl.
"Ah? My apologies, I keep spacing out..."
She sighed, stirring the tapioca around with the straw. Eden would soon notice this.
"What's wrong? You've been quiet ever since we landed in Tokyo..."
Her voice trailed off, sounding concerned as she frowned. Min sighed, leaning back in the seat.
"I am simply not a fan of huge crowds... I'm taking time to adjust. It really isn't anything to worry about."
She answered, taking a strand of hair between her fingers. The other would sigh in relief.
"Oh, good! I was a little worried there for a second!"
She giggled. Min wasn't a huge fan of lying about petty things like that, but she had to keep what little pride she did have, lest Arei and Whit find out about her situation.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the café:
"Starboy? Staaaarboooy? Hello??"
Whit was trying to get David's attention for a minute straight, unsure of why he was staring blankly at the table.
"Hm-? Ah, yes? You needed me for something?"
Shocker, he didn't cuss Whit out upon being disrupted? What news.
"What's with all the moping around? You upset about leaving home?"
The blond asked, leaning his elbows on the table. The bluenett would sigh, shaking his head.
"Just a headache, is all."
"I told you not to order your coffee black, but you don't listen, do you?"
"Shut it."
As soon as Charles chimed in, David shut him down. He was dodging the question to save his life and what little reputation he had left.
After some more goofing about, the class packs up, pays and leaves. However, David and Min stayed in the back of the group. Min nudged David and offered him some milk tea, all the while unable to look him in the eyes from embarrassment. He took it and disposed of the evidence, all without being seen. But then they get back to the dorms.
"Yikes, uh.... two of us are gonna have to share a bed."
Whit pointed out scratching his head. Some had objected to it immediately. Whit, on the other hand, knew just who to tease about it.
"Starboy and Min shou-"
"No."
Poor blondie couldn't finish his sentence without being cut off by the aforementioned starboy.
"C'mooon, why are you in denial? Do you like her?~â™Ș"
Whit teased. Arei joined in.
"If he's so in denial about it, he'll do it!"
She chimed. David sighed, frustrated.
"I'll only do it if Min wants to."
Many gazes turn to Min, who's completely absent-minded at the moment. When she snaps back into reality, she nods.
"Ah- I don't see why not..."
She nods. Thus, the two were paired into the same room. Min set her stuff down and saw David staring into a blank outside. The sky had morphed into a mural of baby blue and burning orange. The clouds were colored in the bright color, their shadows shaded with purple.
"... Pretty view, huh?"
She asked, going up to the window with him. He seemed rather deep in thought.
"I guess so."
He sighed. David seemed to... lament. He doesn't feel like himself. Min could sense it, but she didn't know if she should ask.
"... is something the matter?"
The room falls to silence. David pulls away from the window and sits down on the bed. He seemed tired and bothered.
"I'm sorry if I-"
"Stop it."
The sudden cut-off left Min a little baffled. She just stayed quiet as David began talking.
"You always apologize... it's annoying. For crying out loud, is there ever a time when you're not sorry? It's almost like you're apologizing for being alive..."
David's words... they stung. That's because he was right. Min was like that. She apologized for everything, even if it was the smallest mistake.
The silence is deafening.
"... I think I'll go to bed early tonight."
Min sighed and went to lie down. This was humiliating. She lied down, back turned to David, completely silent. She couldn't fall asleep, the interaction had left her restless.
After a few hours, David's own words are eating at him. He feels... bad, for saying what he did to Min.
"... Min? You awake?"
He called out, turning around to face her back. Min was wide awake, unable to sleep.
"Yes, David?"
She replied. David placed his hand on her shoulder.
"I'm sorry for what I said... It was inconsiderate of me."
Min turned around, seeing if David was actually serious or not. David's eyes looked so... genuine.
"Do you- mean it..?"
She asked, holding her breath. David looked away from Min, down at the floor.
"Yeah, I do..."
David smiled. It wasn't mocking, it felt genuine.
The rest of the night was just them, very close together, talking all throughout the night since neither of them could sleep.

WHAT? Reeling at the Thiago news. It's not even his age or how much he has left to show as one of the most magical and talented players to grace this sport. It's that it's one thing to be sad over players you grew up with retiring and players you were into when you first started watching club football obsessively getting closer to retiring and another thing entirely to see someone you followed since his youth academy days, whose debut in the senior team you were waiting for, and whom you fell in love with as someone you hoped would be Xavi and Iniesta's replacement and future Barça captain (but it wasn't meant to be because of the timing and this is one of the things I'll never get over). Time has gotten away from me.
I thought he'd have at least a season or two left in him somewhere, but I guess the injuries took their toll on him and he didn't think he could do this again. Going through the transfer window nonsense, trying to push his body to its limits while potentially risking injury again and wrecking his body more. Uprooting his family for what would most likely be diminished playtime and possibly very few minutes.
I wish he got to play one more time as happy as I am that he's at least retiring as a Liverpool man because I never got over him leaving Barça (my cule friends and I call him the one who got away). Thiago is so special to me and he was THE player I felt I was growing up with together in a way. This feels unreal and bizarre while understandable. Idk how to feel, but I need 100 business days to process this. All I know is I'm not surprised, but I'm still shocked and I feel this is the weirdest retirement for me (Bojan was weird to me too, but I didn't have the same attachment to him whereas Thiago was part of that Barça B squad everyone had high hopes for even if things didn't pan out). And speaking of things not panning out, Thiago's career trajectory was one of the first lessons I learned about how things don't go to plan sometimes no matter how much you want it to and no matter how destined you think it is that something will happen. In another lifetime, if he had been younger or the golden Barça generation had been a bit older, if Barça hadn't had way too many midfielders that there wasn't any room...maybe things would be different. But I was relieved and happy when he left for Bayern because I wanted the best for him and more playtime and he would be with Pep, which was the best I could ask for, and I thought well, maybe down the line he'll come back. And he did, just not the way I expected and not the club I expected so I'm grateful for that and grateful I got to enjoy his football again as well as the last years we got of him. My original starboy. đŸ˜­â€đŸ’«

Charles Cuevas: is anyone surprised. he is so awesome. him not being able to look at bodies yet still clutching the trial was Great. childhood amnesia and the way he’s processing it is driving me INSANEE everything abt him interests me. his hidden quote, his talk of memories in chapter 1, his growth, “I’ve got both parents and no siblings,” his dynamic with anyone he talks to is SPLENDID. what an amazing support
Teruko Tawaki: my GOAT. best protagonist she is so fun. her inner dialogue is a treat, her personality the way she perceives things the absolute TRAGEDY that is her life. I was surprised she was courteous at all in chapter 1 after finding out about her backstory. like hello how do you have the capacity to be kind even after everything?? the regression and growth of teruko tawaki is something for the history books she is AMAZING
Eden Tobisa: if you hate eden I hate you. she’s wonderful. Her speech to Teruko? Changed my life. the fork scene? You can’t go back, no matter how hard you try? How she’s been repeatedly put through the wringer and still moves on, because grief is what will bring us together? Yes ma’am!!!
Hu Jing: SHE IS SO INTERESTING AND ANNOYING AT THE SAME TIME. dissecting her like a frog. her secret made me collapse. “I still want to live” being in her hidden quote. The story about the lake and the name “Julia.” she is so weird and nuanced I can’t wait for the astronomical tweak out that comes from everything she’s been doing this entire game
Rose Lacroix: my goat part 3. “I feel like my brain’s falling apart” my girl i am so worried about you.? i hate that she has to have another body weighing on her memory. she is slowly LOSING IT
Whit Young: every thought I have about him is unwillingly why is he weird
Arei Nageishi: my girl u were ROBBED. her breakdown made me lose it. Speech to David? she was so calm. so gorgeous. so amazing
Arturo Giles: dude why r you like this. his secret made me suuuuper interested in him. love how pressured he is with having the most medical expertise it’s very fun
Ace Markey: what a sad guy. I honestly can’t say anything about him without parroting someone else so I’ll just leave this here. Great guy, great character, made me sad.
Levi Fontana: he’s Interesting. i honestly didnt gaf beforehand and would’ve ranked him lower but his low empathy/lack of it reveal in ep 13 really hooked me so i like him more now
J Moreno: love her for putting people in their place and holding them accountable. waiting for more development because I don’t fw her as much as I want to
Xander Matthews: this is weird because he used to be my all time fav. stopped watching drdt for a year when he died but when I rewatched the prologue I was like. Yo dude you kind of Suck Ass. love his anti-authoritarian stuff and the thing with chariton tho you go king
Min Jeung: im ngl i only got interested in her when she was breaking down right before her death and also her bonus episode. sorry queen. You are Here I Guess
David Chiem: I can’t lie i loved him a lot more pre-crashout. every single thing he did as Starboy Persona had me sideyeing him bcs of that ONE THING. In the prologue and also his description being rumoured as pessimistic and lazy. what a wonderful setup to a character I would’ve originally written off as boring. sure his real personality being on full display is fun to watch I Guess but . Hm. It doesn’t entice me as much as he did before
Nico Hakobyan: okay listen they just annoy me a lot. I dont enjoy their snarks the way I do other characters. I feel like if they get alienated in chapter 3 I’d get a lot more invested in them. Otherwise? Eh. also you CANNOT treat rose right GET AWAY
Veronika Grebenshchikova: She’s Annoying. I used to think she was cute and malicious but now she’s. I can’tfDO IT I DONT LIKE HER. fun that she skateboards tho
Whit Young (again): I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE Y
Ranking characters based off of how much I like them
1. Teruko Tawaki
2. Charles Cuevas
3. Arei Nageishi
4. Whit Young
5. Hu Jing
6. David Chiem
7. Veronika Grebenschikova

Thoughts on ManU vs Barca đŸŽ€ see that's what you get for taking the piss! M🍙pe saved PSG again 😅 Ramos wtf, French and Spanish NTs in shambles đŸ€Ą The Spurs defeating Chelsea oops
Sigh I blocked so many weirdos over the past few weeks. Also found out I met one of them at some point đŸ”« I don't mind when someone travels for one or two gigs, but attending almost every stop on multiple continents and always getting barricade? And fan signs are even worse
Yeah I heard the atmosphere amongst SM's staff is not the best, even though they have so much work to do with the way SM's calendar for 2023 is FILLED. Apparently some people at Hybe aren't happy either. I'm laughing cause some stans (ekhm Armchairs) kept insisting that there's not Big 4 cause Hybe USED TO BE A SMALL LABEL. And now they're trying to buy everything?!
You're right, Hybe hops on every trend, they're not pioneers in anything except shitty unnecessary vocal processing
Noooo exams stopping you from having fun once again. Doesn't your avocado uni know kpop acts barely come to Vancouver??? But I hope Baekhyun's world tour isn't just Korea, Japan, USA, maybe SEA and perhaps London, Berlin, Paris if SM is feeling more adventurous
Please do not dance to Single Ladies in front of me, it triggers my fight or flight response 😭
No rice wine in my blood system, but lots of coffee, tea, bubble tea especially, and hot chocolate! Btw Baek the vegan spots in Seoul are banging!!! ❀
Most Brits find posh accents silly and tbh sometimes they do sound ridiculous, but what can you do lmao. Posh people are on sight đŸ”Ș since the class system is still very alive and present in the UK
Mou vs Mbappe would be quite funny, I think both of them might lose their shit every 10 minutes 😭😭😭😭
Have you won the lottery yet? Instead of dreaming about being rich I had another Hwa dream...... well that dream won't to come true and I think it's for the best aksjaushwjajjsjaja
They're baby girling without knowing it lmao
Also they're doing dirty blonde SO DIRTY WHYYYYY. I voted black to piss people off, grey deserves better as well
Ok London isn't that cold rn and Seonghwa probably warmed up while jogging, but goddd wtf. We've been blessed by the calves tho. And here.... the slippers lol
I'm ready for more Kai serves! The wings huhu, I almost didn't notice he was half naked
Btw model, miss Tenelka has posted a new fic, I haven't read it yet, but my friend said it's model Hwa. AND I also had lavender oat milk latte and the same drink was mentioned in the fic, idk what to do with this info
Baek, what Wooyoung fencer AU, you need to focus on Yunho bestie đŸ€§đŸ˜­
Snake Hwa agenda. Stop I was about to go to sleep at a respectable hour for a change, but HIM I'm devastated. How am I supposed to sleep
😭

Your Comet/Wolffe sugar daddy au but it's abo. I just can't get the image out of my head of Comet being so happy to have a pup while Wolffe.exe has stopped working. đŸ„ș👉👈
This was fun to write won't lie heh. Hope you like darling!
----------------------------------
Wolffe has gone to accept he probably won’t have children in his life. Maybe it was a possibility now that his star boy is with him but he couldn’t put that on him. The omega was young, fifteen years younger.. Or he thought that as he stared at Comet who was beaming in front of him.
“I’m sorry what?”
“I said, good thing we have that spare room. We are going to need it,” Comet huffed again and he just smiled as Wolffe tried to figure out what that meant.
“Did Wooley have a fight with Waxer and Boil?”
“Nope, they are in a good place,” Comet chuckled and Wolffe nodded. He was glad to hear that at least, he knew that they were having some difficulty there for a bit between them.
“Did I do something?” Wolffe asked as he felt dread fill him, did he forget something? God, what did he screw up this time?
“No, don’t panic, this is a good thing! Or well, depends on how you see it really.”
Wolffe let out a breath of relief, okay so it was good. He honestly didn’t know what to guess, there were so many things and he just smiled as he pulled Comet closer, holding him close in his arms as he kissed him.
“Okay, what’s the news?”
This is when Comet hesitated, his body fidgeting as he gave him a sheepish smile. It was adorable when his starboy got shy on him but he couldn’t help but to worry as well. Was everything alright with him?
“So, don’t freak out but I haven’t been feeling well and I looked into it-”
“Unwell?” Wolffe asked in alarm, his hands tightening around his waist, “Are you okay?”
Comet gave him a fond huff, “I’m fine Wolffe, but like I said, I looked into it and well I’m pregnant.”
“Yo-you’re pregnant?” Wolffe whispered as he froze. He could tell Comet was watching his reaction closely so he tried to keep his facial reactions in check as he tried to process the news. His thoughts were quick as he tried to sort through them before he looked up, Comet frowning at him.
“Are you not okay with this?”
“No! I mean Yes! Oh god yes I am okay with this, this is amazing news Comet!” Wolffe exclaimed as he tried to soothe the young man in front of him as he buried his nose into his star boy’s neck, “I am just worried.”
“Worried?” Comet asked as his arms wrapped around him, locking them in a tight embrace and Wolffe felt like he was home in his arms.
“You are still so young, you still have so much ahead of you-”
“Wolffe,” Comet half growled as he pulled away to glare up at him, “So what if I am younger than you? I have everything I could possibly want, yes there are things I still have to go through but lots of people go through it with kids of their own. I won’t be any different and I want this with you dammit. I want you.”
Wolffe didn’t know what to say to that as he stopped, his emotions twisting up as he realized just how lucky he was to have this man show up into his life. How lucky that the omega wanted him no matter how broken he was and wanted a family with him. All he could do was kiss him in that moment, to try and show just how much he appreciated his star boy.
“I love you.”
“I love you too old man,” Comet teased and Wolffe just laughed at that as he pulled him close.
They had a lot of problems to face together, a lot of what could go wrong and how people would see and say about Comet but he was going to be there every step of the way. All that mattered was they were happy together, they were going to have a family together, god he is going to be a father.
How did he get so lucky?

Child of Ren Ch.16
Tumblr media
A/N- We are so close to the end!! I want to write a small bonus chapter dedicated to just baby Kes and Poe :/ anyway I hope you guys liked the chapter, let me know what you thought!!
Warning- light swearing, violence, angst, slight fluff, long chapter
Pairing- Poe Dameron x Reader x Rey, Ben solo x Reader (platonic)
Takes place- after TROS
(Let me know if you want to be tagged)
———-
“I told you once that you were destined for great things.”
The words echoed in your mind as loud as the thunder that rumbled outside, you tried to drown them out, but nothing worked, they were persistent. “This is what you are destined for, to finish what I couldn’t.”
You lifted your head to see your reflection, one that wasn’t how you had seen yourself just seconds ago. This was one was different, it was you in the Kylo Ren helmet, looking as he once did. Conflicted in the dark side.
“I will get you back I promise. Whatever it takes.” Your voice cracked, you tried to fight it, but the darkness was overwhelming. The only clarity you could seem to feel was when you a saw single blue butterfly fly outside the ships transpiersteel. It flapped its wings, unbothered by the storm rumbling in the sky. Almost like it was trying to tell you something, until it disappeared like it had appeared, out of nowhere.
And that was when you felt the darkness again, lurking in every corner of your mind, repeating the same three words that hadn’t stopped since Ahch-to. “Embrace the darkness.”
Before you could think of anything else to say, the sound of crying pulled you away from what you were doing to instinctively hurry out of your quarters and into the ships main room where you now saw a quiet Kes in Rey’s arms. Once she spots you she looks up at you with a warm smile.
“It’s okay.” She assures you, “I got him.” The sight swells your heart and breaks a smile on your lips, but you still avert your eyes and remind yourself that you had to push your feelings aside until after your mission. “He looks just like Poe.” She beamed as she gently rocked the kid in her arms.
You hummed in agreement, while also coming to realization that Poe was missing. And that alone was rare, he hardly wanted to part away from baby Kes since he united with him—however it was that worry went to the back of your mind as you kept focusing on the sight of Rey and the kid. She just seemed to do it so naturally, likes she’s done it hundreds of times before.
“You’re good at this you know.” You complimented her. Rey looked down at Kes and then back at you, seeming unsure and insecure in some way.
“You really think so?”
You nod as you make your way towards her, your smile never faltering. “Hell yeah.” Finally and very slowly you pull your eyes to meet her own, realizing that you had really missed her, and that you for sure meant what you said to her before you left Exegol. You really did love her...just like you loved Poe. You couldn’t separate from either of them to be with the other, it would break your heart, you just couldn’t choose between the two.
Why can’t you just be with the both of them....that would be easier and it would be something you would love—come to think of it, why can’t it happen? Would it be too weird? No. At least not to you.
“Rey..” you inhale deeply and notice that nothing happened when you really met her gaze. No painful memories or vision of that day, it was just simply her. The pain you thought you were going to feel was all just in your head, a ploy to not forget your mission and just leave with her and Poe. To just be happy. In fact you didn’t forget of your mission to get Ben back, you actually felt more inspired, like with her by your side it was going to be done. Because it was.
But then their it was...the darkness lurking in your mind and polluting every thought, making you second guess yourself and pull away from what you intended to do. Focusing on Poe who entered the room with a huge grin.
“We’re ready to go.” He beamed as he made his way to Rey and you to pick Kes from Rey’s arms, “aren’t we little man?” He cooed to the kid in his arms.
You cocked your head slightly to the side, narrowing your gaze on him as you watched what he was doing, “what the hell are you doing?”
“Getting ready to head to the temple.” He responded as he put Kes in his hovering pod.
You scoffed, “you’re not taking my kid with us.”
“Our. Our kid.” Poe corrected making your jaw clench.
“All the same we are not taking Kes with us. That’s why I got a nurse droid.”
Poe shrugged, “I don’t trust it. Plus you don’t need it anymore, I’m here.”
“Yeah Poe, I have to agree with y/n, I don’t think it will be safe for you to bring Kes. I think what’s best is to leave him with the droid.” Rey defended, but Poe was stubborn and didn’t listen to reason. Something you did not miss. At all.
“We are not taking him.” You repeated. But Poe still didn’t listen, only making you angry.
“It’s okay, hon. I got him and so does BB8 and Finn. We’re going to keep him safe.” He tried to assure you, whilst also placing a kiss on your forehead before heading out and having the hover pod follow his side. You would’ve argued, but you didn’t want to lose your temper, so instead you just huffed.
“If anything happens I swear to the maker I will kill him.” You grumble.
Rey nodded in agreement, placing a hand on your shoulder, “I’ve got your back.”
You grin at her comment. “Good. Now let’s go before he decides to leave without us.”
—
Neither Rey nor you could feel the location of the Jedi temple, it was weird, you usually could feel the temples presence through the force, but this wasn’t me of them, their was just nothing. So instead of walking in blind you had to ask the locals for directions which that alone was a set back, especially since you’ve been on edge all day. Anxious to get to the temple and do what needed to done, to get Ben back.
“Going back to six months ago,” you began as you followed Poe into a close by tavern, “how did you guys manage to get into the capital ship?“
Finn began to chuckle as he walked to your side and wrapped his arm around your shoulders, “it’s the funniest and greatest story actually. You won’t believe it.” Finn managed to say between laughs all while Poe shot him a glare.
“Don’t listen to him y/n, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.” Poe tried to interrupt but Finn quickly shrugged away his comment and continued with his story.
“Did you know our dear, General Poe Dameron was once a spice runner?”
You look over at Poe and meet his gaze, a smile tugging at the corner of your lips as you watched him shake his head and roll his eyes before walking ahead, pretending he wasn’t listening in.
“No! Really?” You chuckled, “Starboy you were a spice runner? And here I thought you’ve always flown straight.”
Poe spun back and glared at you, before mumbling to you, “don’t start.”
You rose your hands to feign innocence, something he ignored as he turned back around only making Finn and you fall into a fit of laughter, whilst Finn continued teasing poor Poe.
“No but really, how did you guys get in? I’m curious.”
Rey and Finn shared a look, neither of them saying a word, something you immediately found suspicious. You followed by quirking your eyebrow, motioning them to explain, but neither of them did right away only doing so minutes later.
“Poe’s...friend. She gave him a way in.” Finn explained while glancing over at Poe.
“She was in the past. Nothing happened or will happen again.” Poe quickly interjected, just putting a thought in your head that wasn’t there until he pointed it out. Something that just made things worse.
“Oh. Okay.” You deadpanned. Nobody said anything else on the matter, the only reaction given was Finn’s disapproval to Poe’s abrupt and unnecessary comment. But given that, you didn’t really care of Poe’s past relationships or the fact that he saw his ex that he didn’t tell you about...no that didn’t bother you at all.
The remaining minutes that it took you all to arrive to the tavern, you did so in silence. A silence that wasn’t broken until Rey informed you all that she was going to ask for the information you all needed.
As you were waiting for her to come back again you remained quiet, not wanting to drift into your own mind because of what dark hole you could fall into, and instead focused on the Lothal-cat curiously circling BB8.
“You’re mad.” Poe added as he sat by your side.
“No....should I be?” You shrugged. “It’s your past. I’m no one to judge.”
“Not that, about Zorii.”
“Who?” You turned your head to face him, doing your best to look unbothered. Poe only cocked his head slightly, sharing all you needed to know about who he was talking about with that simple look. Something that again didn’t bother you at the slightest. “Don’t be ridiculous, we weren’t together so what is there to be mad about? Your past is your own, I don’t care who you’ve been with.”
Poe took a minute to process what you said. He was surprised that you gave no reaction, you just simply and truly looked unbothered. And that bothered him. “So you’re not mad? Not even the slightest bit jealous?”
You simply shook your head before excusing yourself, “sounds like Kes is crying, I’m going to check on him.” You lied as you stood from your seat, but as soon as you tried to walk towards said kid, Poe grabbed your arm to turn you to face him, a smirk showing on his lips.
“He’s not crying, Finn’s trying to make him smile.” He pointed out, before his smirk deepened, “Not bothered?”
“No.” You answered quickly.
He moved his hands up to your cheeks, cupping them gently before he moved in for a sweet kiss, a kiss you didn’t pull away from and instead leaned into. The feeling of his lips on your own was a feeling you missed and longed for, and doing it now made you smile into it.
Once you both broke away, Poe beamed and caressed your cheek before whispering what he needed to say, “I never felt for her what I feel for you, okay?”
“Okay.”
Rey then walked back to your table, sparing a quick glance to Poe and you before focusing on what she needed to say. “The temple isn’t far, its just east from here.”
You showed a hopeful smile, your nerves increasing tenfold at the knowledge that you were close. That Ben was close.
—
Lothal was a big beautiful planet, even if the stormy clouds ruined the scene. However though, it was simply a beautiful place, green large prairies that if you looked closely had Lothal-cats rummaging about. In the distance their was mountains, even if the dark clouds covered the sight you could still see them, just like the huge rock formations you were heading to. The closer you got, the bigger they seemed to get.
The more anxious you got as well. The louder the voices repeated the same tempting words, words that only had dark intentions behind them, lurking in your mind like the thoughts and memories that overwhelmed it. The only good thing was that you didn’t lose control anymore, all thanks to Ben...if it weren’t for him, you would have lost control that other night you saw Kylo in the dark cave.
Yet even if you didn’t lost control anymore, you felt like you were going to lose your mind. Just like the other night when the Twi’lek had you at gun point, when you saw Ben. Only it wasn’t really him, whatever it was, it was just your mind playing tricks. Just like now as Ben reappeared. You could see him clear as day, standing in the tall grass, watching you as you queitly made your way to the temple.
It was weird and only conflicted you more. The closer you got to the temple, the more you saw him. Not only that but you saw Kylo Ren too. Only he was surrounded by mist that made him ominous and in many ways terrifying. Both illusions just seemed to taunt you. Plaguing your mind with more unnecessary conflict. Something that soon was going to be over as you arrived to the temple.
“We’re here.” Rey announced as you all came to a stop in front of a large rock formation. Something that to a normal person just simply looked like that, nothing but a simple rock.
Poe furrowed his eyebrows while placing his hands on his hips, “we’re where? I don’t see anything.”
Finn chuckled and pointed his head to the rock, “the temple is hidden inside there. Watch.”
Rey and Finn moved to stand on the writing carved on the floor, both extending their arms out to lift and spin the temples gate with the Force. Something that slowly began to move, leaving Poe and you awestruck. Only it wasn’t the spinning rock that soon showed its gate that left you mesmerized, but the fact that Finn was moving it. He was using the force! Since when?!
Just as you were going to ask and express your surprised reaction, the voices echoed louder and now seemed to be coming from inside the temple. So quickly you made your way inside it, something that only seemed to make them louder, like if they were screaming in your ear. But you drowned that all out as you focused on your task, on who you were looking for. Ben. You felt more hope than ever before. You were going to see him. Finally.
“So how is this going to work?” Poe commented as he followed you inside with the hover pod following his side, “are we just going to wait for him? Is he going to walk out of nowhere or what?”
Rey shook her head, while she also seemed to be entranced by the temple, like if voices were calling her too, only hers were much nicer, down a lighter path. “No, I’m afraid it’s much more difficult than that.”
The voices came back, this time more clear than before and they still seemed to be calling from somewhere inside the temple. So you continued walking, entering through a well hidden hall that led to a dimly lit room. You were so entranced by the calling that you soon forgot Poe was following behind Rey, Finn and you, and that was something you didn’t like, mostly because it could be dangerous.
“Poe.” You turned your head back to face said man, an apologetic smile on your features, “I think it’s best if you stay behind with Kes and wait. It could be dangerous.”
Poe lips parted, his eyebrows furrowing as he was baffled by what you just told him. “What? No, I’m going with you.”
“Poe.” You pleaded, “nothing’s going to happen, please just wait.”
Poe narrowed his gaze on you, before letting out a huff, turning his back towards you to head back, while Finn also chose to follow him, saying that it would be best if it was just Rey and you. Also having no choice but hear Poe mutter his complaint to baby Kes, like if said child could respond or complain with him. “Come on little man, they don’t want us here...hmph. Dangerous? Please.”
You shake your head before continuing down the path, until finally stopping inside the room, seeing the light was provided by the designs on the walls and cieling. You had no idea what they meant but the sight was truly breath taking. And for some odd reason you knew what to do without someone needing to tell you.
Without saying a word or waiting another minute you sat down inside the carved circle, crossing your legs together before you shut your eyes and tried to clear your mind, just like Rey had taught you. You just needed to clear your mind—just clear your mind....
“Embrace the darkness, y/n, it’s the only way you’ll get him back.” In the minute of clarity and peace, the voice and darkness returned again, stronger than ever, urging you to do as it said. It was tempting, not to do as it said—if it was the way to get him back then you would do it, no doubt in your mind. Plus it was what you had seen in the dark cave the other night. “Embrace it. It’s in your nature.”
“Use your anger. Your pain, every bad memory. Use it and embrace the darkness.” Hearing that repeat in your mind, you did just that. Tried to recall every bad memory, use your anger to do what needed to be done, but it was a struggle, half of you fought that urge. But their was another urging voice trying to tell you not do so, it felt like your mind was at war with the light and dark side. It was draining and difficult.
The darkness was getting stronger, using what you wanted, using Ben to bait you. And that alone was what reeled you in, before it could trap you, before you opened that door in your mind someone stopped you. Someone unfamiliar and yet familiar at the same time.
“Don’t. Don’t be fooled by the lies of the dark side. It’s just a trick, you will not get what you’re looking for.”
You tried to place the voice to a familiar face, but you couldn’t, you didn’t know who it was. “Who are you?”
“Someone who’s been trying to reach you for a long time now.” The voice revealed, “open your eyes, y/n.”
With hesitance you did as he said, slowly opening your eyes to see that you weren’t in the same room as before, but in an entirely different place. Dark and with the same designs that the room had, only here it was spread all across the never ending place, the path you were on even had the white designs. Only Rey wasn’t here, she was replaced by a man you didn’t recognize, in robes that you knew belonged to the past Jedi.
“Who are—” your eyes widened as you finally recognized who it was standing before you. The once great Jedi. Your grandfather. Mace Windu—a small smile tugged at the corner of your lips, one that quickly disappeared. “How are you here?”
“The force allows me to be here, with you.” He began to explain, “but if you don’t fight the dark side trying to take over then I won’t be here for long. Just like this place, the world between worlds.” He stared at you with a disapproving look, just as he crossed his arms on his chest and continued to speak, “it seems that the doubt I once had for Anakin Skywalker, had its consequence, now that you can’t seem to forget and let go of his grandson.”
You continued to stare at him with disbelief, your mind just couldn’t accept it—did him being here mean that Ben could too? Or was he here to stop you from getting Ben? If he was then you wouldn’t have a problem forgetting him. It didn’t matter if he was your Grandfather— “are you here to help me bring Ben back?”
He sighed and hesitated to answer, but did so anyhow, “I’m here as your guide, but not—”
Quickly you ignored what he was saying as your eyes landed on a portal that opened not far from you. It had the same design as the place you were in, only their was multiple butterfly designs flying around it, something significant that identified it from the rest. When it opened it showed a clear play by play of that day Ben died, letting you know that it all had to do with him.
Without a second thought, you moved past your grandfather and rushed towards the portal. Now realizing voices echoing around, some voices you knew and others that you didn’t.
“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”
“Never tell me the odds.”
“Let the past die. Kill it if you have to. That’s the only way to become what you were meant to be.”
“Having the ability to use the force doesn’t deem you great. You’re great with or without. Don’t forget that.”
“There’s good in him. I know. I know there is..still..”
The voices of the people from the past, present and future died down as you reached the portal door, as you saw Ben facing Palpatine in Exegol, just before you fought him. He was standing there...in that moment that was the best thing you’ve ever seen—stars how much you’ve missed him—a warm smile again tugged on your lips as you saw him, so close and far at the same time. All you needed to do was reach through and you would finally get him back.
Just reach your hand to grab his, that’s all you needed to, just reach— “don’t!”
You gasped as you were pulled back, seeing nothing now but your grandfather before you, blocking your path to Ben.
“Do that and you’re risking bringing Palpatine back. After all your friends and you have done, you can’t risk it. It’s far too dangerous.”
Your eyebrows furrowed together at his words—he was here to stop you; “no.” You responded sharply, “just Ben and that’s it. You can’t stop me.”
“I can and I will. Don’t you see it. It’s been Palpatine’s plan all along.” He tried to explain, but you couldn’t listen to reason, he had to be lying— “his first plan didn’t work. He’s using your vulnerability. You save Ben Solo and he comes to. Just likes he’s been wanting all along.”
“I don’t have that stupid ring anymore. He’s done controlling me!” You bellowed as you tried to push past him, an action he easily pushed back.
“He might be, but what he did is still affecting your mind! Still troubling you! See that!” He argued. But you still couldn’t listen. Ben was just a few feet away. He was right there. He was close. You needed him.
“I need him, I can’t be without him...please.” You begged, your voice cracking as tears slipped past your cheeks. “Please...it’s my fault-it’s my fault.”
Your grandfather just shook his head before he extended his hand and whispered, “I’m sorry.” And just like that you were back in the temple, with Rey once again before you, and Ben gone. Again.
Every feeling thereafter came flooding back, the darkness that had plagued your mind before was beginning to feel overbearing, it felt that way before but now it was worse. Now it felt like your mind was on fire and the only solution was to embrace that forbidden side, just embrace the darkness. Because either way that was the right path, you unknowingly tried doing it the “right way” with your grandfather and it didn’t work. Now you had to do it the way you were told, the only way you were going to bring him back.
“Y/N?”
You looked up to meet Rey’s worried gaze, tears slipping past your eyes and down your cheeks, a look Rey didn’t miss. In fact the moment you had forcefully returned from the World between Worlds she had sensed something was wrong, seeing you now, seeing how devastated you were, and seeing no Ben, she knew her senses weren’t wrong.
“I’m sorry.” You whimpered, as you slowly stood to your feet and broke your gaze from hers, focusing on the battle inside your head. “It’s the only way.” You shut your eyes and focused on letting the anger, every bad memory, pain just seep through, letting it all just take over. You were going to open that door inside your head that led to the dark side.
“Don’t!” Rey bellowed as she rushed to your side, grabbing your shoulders and then your face to make you open your eyes to see her. She knew what was going on, she could feel your struggle and she couldn’t let it take over you. “Y/N, you can’t choose the dark side, it will only bring more pain! You won’t find him that way, trust me.”
Your eyes opened slowly, swallowing thickly as you met her gaze, mouthing an apology before you force pushed her to the wall—she doesn’t know what she was talking about, this was the right way. You needed to embrace the darkness—once again you focused on your previous task, slowly opening that door, and as you did you felt it fly open. Basking you with the darkness, pain and anger. Plaguing your mind with every bad memory from your past, memories that only hurt you more.
The feeling felt odd and wrong, it felt like it was taking over and turning you into someone you weren’t, but you also felt more powerful in every way. But with so much power, it was also something you couldn’t control—the ground beneath your feet began to shake, rubble from the stone made ceiling began to trickle down. All how it would happen before.
Once again you sat inside the carved circle to retry what you intended to do before, only this time it was going to be different.
Just as you were going to try and enter that previous state, you were thrown back and held against the wall. You strained to be let go, but Rey’s hold was too strong. “I can’t let you do this! I can’t let you fall down that path.” She voiced with tears of her own pooling her eyes. “I can’t lose you too.”
“It-it’s the only way!” You groaned, barely managing to be set free and land on the ground again. “It’s my fault he’s gone, I have to do this for him! Whatever it takes.” Again she tried to force you to the wall, but this time you fought back, clashing your own force with hers, a battle that was hard as the both of you tried to come out successful and force the other one back; “he was my home. Even if I pretended to hate him, I always loved him. So please Rey, let me do this.”
“No! You’re a good person don’t do this! He doesn’t want this for you!” She voiced making you hesitate, “I can help you. I can help you see him again.”
You shook your head, the dark side trying to seduce you to not listen to her, trying to tell you she was wrong. “You’re wrong.” You muttered, slightly gaining the upper hand to push her back. “The dark side is the only way.”
“No it isn’t, I can help you. Okay? I promise.” She tried to convince you, showing a reassuring look while easing her fight against you. Something that was a mistake as you completely gained the upper hand and pushed her to the wall. Following by swiftly summoning your lightsaber to your hand and summoning hers as well, igniting your red blade and her new yellow one. A sight that shocked you, but didn’t comment on, instead you crossed both sabers and pushed them to her throat, letting them ghost over her skin.
“It’s the only way.”
Rey didn’t move under the burning blades, but she also didn’t try and fight back physically, instead she tried to help you a different way. “It isn’t. Just like he isn’t the only person you have.” Rey expressed softly, carefully moving her hand to grab your own, an action to help calm your mind just like how Ben used to do before. “You have Poe, Finn, baby Kes and me. I love you and I won’t let you fall to the dark side, I’ll help you, every step of the way. I promise.”
The hold on the lighsabers faltered as you took in her words, as your mine eased and saw the light shine through. Letting the room stop shaking, leaving only cracks on the floors and walls as faint memory of what happened. Your lip began to tremble knowing that she was right. You had lost yourself trying to prove her and everyone else wrong. Just to bring Ben back.
“Hey, what’s going on?!” You heard Poe yell as he and Finn rushed into the room, BB8 and the silver hovering pod containing Kes not failing to follow behind him. “What’s—” he cut himself off as he saw you hold two lightsabers to Rey’s throat. He was utterly lost on what was going on, but he knew it couldn’t be good with what he was seeing. “Y/N.” Poe tried to walk towards you but stopped as Finn held him back, only shaking his head to express that he shouldn’t.
You took a moment to look back at Poe, Finn and the sleeping child in pod, taking in and realizing that you couldn’t be the monster you feared, how selfish could you be to do that? “I never told him anything I wanted to say,” you sobbed while dropping the sabers to the ground, whilst letting go of that darkness that almost controlled you; “I’m sorry, Rey.” Said girl didn’t respond with anything, instead she wrapped you in a tight hug, falling on her knees with you as you held onto her and cried into her shoulder. “I’m sorry.”
“Its okay.” She assured you, “it’s okay.”
Ben was lost forever, all because he saved you. It was going to be hard to accept that, but you needed to in order to not lose yourself...like you did now. You needed to accept that you were never going to see him again, that he was gone just like your parents. He was gone...
Suddenly their was new feeling...a presence...a familiar one....carefully you lifted your head off Rey’s shoulder to notice that her and the wall were basked in a gentle blue light. The same blue light your grandfather was basked in. You blinked to meet Rey’s widened gaze, her eyes focused on something—someone behind you. Just before you could turn to see who it was, a familiar voice filled your ears....
“Hey, Kid.”

There were three months of silence and tension before he was found again. But he was not the same as when he was lost

It had started out simply and as routine as their day could be. The team awoke, ate breakfast and put on their armor, ready for the Princess to call out their next mission. They had become professionals at this by now. It was a relatively peaceful planet from what they could tell just looking at it on a surface level, but also from the reports they had gathered from their allies, which was much more than could be said for any other planet they had been to where they had landed with only a fraction of the information that they would need to deal with it. The team cheered at the prospect of having an easy mission for once with their leader, Shiro, calling them back from their celebrating to focus them.
It was supposed to be simple. A diplomatic mission to form a new alliance and gain support and supplies, and it had started off well enough.
Black, red, green, yellow and blue streaked from the glistening castle and to the planet below, arcing gracefully in their descent. The Lions touched down and glinted proudly in the orange sunlight. They were met with enthusiasm from the tiny yellow race of the planet and were pulled along to their city, smiling and waving at the crowd that cheered and clapped exuberantly. The one in blue played his part, smiling and laughing as his heart told him, but feeling a deep-seated unease when looking too closely at the joyful faces before him. Something was wrong.
But would the others even believe him if he voiced his concerns?
They had dismissed his thoughts and opinions so many times before...
Resolutely, he kept his mouth shut and hung off his friend with a wide smile plastered on his face, chattering excitedly about how they finally had a parade to themselves, but still wanting a parade dedicated to him specifically. The one in yellow armor, Hunk, chuckled and nodded, patting his friends arm and continuing to walk forward, shy of the many eyes on him. Suspicious blue eyes swept of the crowd as they walked on, deeper and deeper into the throng of the crowd and closer towards a looming building that could only be their equivalent of a town hall. Blue hung back and watched the Team from behind, holding a device in his hand loosely so as not to attract attention, but firmly to set off should his feeling prove to be right.
They were.
His feelings of paranoia and anxiety proved to be all too right.
The minute they stepped into the building, chaos erupted. Waves of purple figures rose to meet them and the loud sounds of cheers changed to the loud sounds of gunfire and screams. Screams of terror, screams of fury, screams of command.
"Duck!"
"Get them!"
"We're trapped!"
"Open fire!"
"Call the Lions!"
"Don't let them escape!"
But he had already called and activated his mechanism. Fire and return fire. It felt like eternity had passed before the thunderous roars called out to their pilots and the building collapsed around them, crushing purple and sending clouds of dust around them.
Dread settled deeply into his gut as his ocean loved Lion let him in and they took off into the sky, circling around with their brethren to unleash hell into those that would dare hurt their precious people. Tender heart he may have, but he struggled to keep in mind the race still running and flailing below. They had willingly betrayed those that would help them to save their own skins. They had betrayed those he loved and held dear and it took everything in his heart not to unleash his hate on them. His attention was called away when something new and dangerous took his attention. A battleship. Massive and world destroying and coming right at them. And it seemed to him that it was equipped with a new weapon.
"Return to the Castle, immediately!" The princess called.
Immediately, all five flew back to regroup, but it seems the battleship had other thoughts and the sound of what he could only describe as a deafening roar of Hell sounded around them. It should have been impossible to capture the sound, flying through the stars, but it echoed and reverberated through their skin and bones and brought terror to their hearts. There, small enough to overlook, but big enough to end them was a black hole. It looked like a nightmare and he wanted nothing more than to fly away from it.
"They're firing again! Move it!"
And fire they did. The Lions dove and spun, firing upon the ship in an attempt to disable the weapon while the Castle did the same. It had an effect, but not the one they wanted.
"Little Paladins who think they can stop us! Let's see how you fare without four Lions!" a grating voice called out.
And soon the comforting cold of his Lion was replaced with the crushing cold of space with a crackle of lightning over his skin. Their Lions were still headed back to the Castle, seemingly unaware that their pilots were missing. But he was only allowed a moment to process this.
"Use your jetpacks! Head for the Castle! Stay as far away from those black holes as possible!" He heard from his com and he jettisoned into action, flying off as quick as he could towards their destination and feeling fear encompass him as he saw fighter ships launch from the battleship. By now, the Lions had noticed and had stopped to run back for their Paladins but he called out to his, pushing her away. Blue! No! Go back! You can't do anything like this! He plead with her and she roared in protest. She had to protect her Paladin! But he continued to urge her forward to the Castle.
He fled onwards, ducking and dodging the blasts from the ships. The bastards were toying with them! He had reached his friends, each doing the same and had raised their shields to attempt to block any incoming weapon fire.
"Since when could that witch do this?!" The small one in green, Pidge, yelled.
"Let's just hope she doesn't do it again!" Hunk yelped, narrowly missing a blast.
"Move it!" Fiery red yelled, Keith, and pushed them faster forwards. So close! Almost!
The Castle flew forward as best it could to meet them, caught in between so many black holes. But once again, the sound of Hell beaconed and blue eyes widened as he saw where it would eventually land. With what strength and rocket power he had, his Bayard changed, a mixture of a grappling hook and whip and he attached his jetpack to it, sending it forward.
"Grab it!" He yelled as it zoomed past the others.
Instinctively, they did as he said and it jerked them forward those final few meters until they landed into one of the hangers, it shutting closed behind them. He breathed a sigh of relief before horror took hold and a black hole formed in front of where his friends had just been. He hadn't even been able to let out a cry out when he was swallowed by the ever reaching nothing as it burned and froze and stabbed at his body, his last sight as he passed through the sight of the Castle warping away from danger.
At least his life hadn't been for nothing, right?
And the void tore every part of him to dust.
