Elrena spotted a flower on her way home.

She didn’t know why she stopped. A flower was a flower. Daybreak Town was filled with them. Winding on trellises, sitting in window boxes, planted in gardens.  Too many, in Elrena’s opinion. There was always pollen in the air, irritating her nose and making her eyes water.

So she mostly ignored them as she walked through the streets. Her thoughts were taken by her current Heartless target—and any smaller enemies in the way. Important things.

This flower, though, caught her eye. It sat in the shadow of a wall, tucked out of sight. A single bloom for anyone who happened to take the backstreets. A cluster of petals fanned out like a crown atop the stalk. Elrena bent down and gently touched their points. The shape of the flower reminded her of a bird’s beak, the petal crown as a crest of feathers.

Those petals were what drew her interest. The bright orange stood out against the green leaves and stem, nearly the same shade as a certain someone’s hair. Hair she wanted to see unbound from its ribbons and free to flow in the wind. She stroked the petals and imagined her fingers running through those bright ginger locks.

Elrena realized she was blushing. She plucked the flower from the ground and carried it home.

They all deserved better.

⚡️Elrena/Larxene:

10. Could you be friends with this character?

17. What's a ship for this character you don't hate but it's not your favorite that you're fine with?

18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire?

(For this)

10. I could be friends with Elrena maybe… although I’m not sure we see enough of her with her peers for me to properly judge her what her personality would be like. Larxene? Absolutely not lol. I love her as a character but I think she’d drive me crazy as a real person.

17. Elrena (or Larxene) being shipped with either of the flower siblings is just not for me personally.

Mutual Strelrena just doesn’t fit into my personal headcanon’s (but one sided on Strelitzia end does). I believe Elrena when she said they weren’t really ‘friends’, like I don’t think they talked much. That’s mostly because I wonder if Strelitzia was in a similar pickle as she was with Player when it comes to Elrena. The whole “I want to talk to this person so bad but I’m too scared”, just a bit closer since they were in the same party. Don’t really have much evidence for that headcanon other than Lauriam thinking they were friends (presumably because Strelitzia would talk about her often enough).

I don’t even know what Lauriam and Elrena/Marluxia and Larxene’s ship names are but whatever it is, not personally a huge fan of that ship either. This one really is just a personal thing though. I just long for purely platonic male and female friendship in stuff because there really isn’t enough of that in media, and when it is there or left up to interpretation, I prefer to take the platonic explanation.

Like I wouldn’t not read a fic if either of ship were there, I just wouldn’t be able to read one with it as the main focus (mind you I’m not really into mostly shippy fics anyways).

18. Admire wouldn’t be the word I’d use but my favourite of her relationships is her and Marluxia.

Man, their dynamic is just so fun. They’re just so mean to everyone but each other, and I love that for them. Like I imagine that there was something subconscious drawing them to each other, this familiarity that felt safer than the coldness of the rest of the Organization. The similarities of their situations helped them connect. I can’t wait to see them more post-KH3, although I really hope the don’t defang Larxene when that happens.

Here's a couple top 5s, you don't have to do them all. Favorite fictional characters. Favorite video games. Favorite ship (does not have to be romantic). And let's do a couple non fandom things, favorite desserts. Favorite hobbies and activities (you can include stuff you did in the past but are no longer doing it you want)

I'm going to do most of these!

The fictional characters one is so difficult because there's so many that are important to me and honestly anyone could probably guess these buut

Roxas- Never related more to a character or will again holy shit I don't want to talk about all the reasons but yeah god he's just like me fr

Chara- Well my interest in Undertale in general was probably one of the most influential things in my life for a lotta reasons but especially cause cosplaying them got me to meet my big sister friends :3

Aoi- I don't think I need to elaborate much but this fucker is somehow the very definition of comfort character to me sibling of all time and god how did they fit so much survivor's guilt and gender swag on this one guy

Akane- She's honestly one of the fictional characters of all time for me not even just in the sense that I'm emotionally invested and like to project on what I relate to her in like just literally no one does it like her and it's so fucking awesome how much nuance she has

Mary- From Ib obviously. The concept of a painting come to life is one thing but also matching that with intense loneliness and abandonment issues because the artist was neglectful and the way she doesn't even know what life is like but wants it so bad and how the thing with existing even works in the gallery is just so interesting to me and I never saw the concept done like that again

Ships is interesting because I am not overwhelmed by choice and have few I ever liked lmao

Soriku- I don't wanna make statements on what they have going on exactly but it is some shade of true love and regardless their relationship is just so precious to me like the Disney vibes really make me feel things

Garnet- aka Ruby and Sapphire from Steven universe and that is simply because I remember crying when they came on screen for the first time kissing and being worried for each other and realizing at the tender age of thirteen on the spot that I did have romantic feelings afterall but I just never realized girls were an option

Junepei- These two are so messed up whatever they have going on isn't precious in the wholesome sense at all and I'm living for it they get to be awkward and cute and each other's first real crushes but also horny and terrible for what else they bring to each other's lives and still the only thing to keep each other from giving up on other people altogether and they're liars and manipulators and they never once harm the other out of spite and it's a runaway and a detective and just a caring brave boy who met a lonely smart girl when they were in elementary school and a control freak mastermind that's half dead and waiting for him to save her and a normal spontaneous person who's pulled into all this when she kidnaps him and GOD

Aoilight- They're also complicated but not as much as those other two I'm tired from typing that out and I did already make an essay on these two so I just think them together would be sweet and funny and they'd be more on the same page about healing than junepei if the circumstances were okay

Strelrena- Okay hear me out this rare pair has so much potential because I believe marluxia and larxene to be the gay lesbian solidarity duo and streli is canonically queer for her crush on player and Elrena was the only one she really talked to omg they were party mates and she was along for the ride to help her brother find her from day one and she only avoided the war because streli talked fondly about her enough for lauriam to remember and go to her and her chirity is so funny about teasing her about caring about anyone at all while looking for her and her doing a one eighthy and being bitter and awful at the very notion of having a heart makes sense with this whole thing and in her files she talks about something previous to her but that still gives her mixed feelings and some of those could still end up being about marluxia and I would not like that but for now I can only hope for kh to have a single wlw pairing that works for me

Dessert!

Mint chocolate chip ice cream

Brigadeiro/Dois amores

Lemon pie

Churros

Cookies

Hmm hobbies

Cosplay is definitely the definition of a hobbie I dropped but I owe so much to the time I dabbled in it

Writing I started to do after giving up on taking cosplay seriously

Surfing actually for a short while when I was young but it's cold here so my dad gave up on going to classes during the freezing weekend mornings with me and my brother

Sewing cause my big sis tried teaching me for a couple weeks when I was in highschool I'd go to her place afterwards once or twice for lessons but that didn't last too long for many reasons

Hand making bracelets and necklaces! Wow that one's old I loved to go to the store to buy beads and other accessories for it when I was small but my mom didn't take me often and I'm not sure those stores still exist

[reallybadgirlcovention]

I just found an old document for a Strelrena fic that I had started and thought I lost. Might have to get back to that. Even if it is a little...hm. Campy.

Basorexia with Strelrena? (Strelitzia x Elrena)

Basorexia - An overwhelming desire to kiss

(I hope you like this! This my first time writing something this, well, intimate. So I hope I did a god job at it!)

Elrena had just gotten back from a tough mission and really wanted a rest. So, she layed on the first soft thing she ran into, which happened to be the couch. However, her girlfriend was also sitting on the couch, which led to Elrena flopping down onto her lap.

“Hello Sparky!” Strelitzia smiled, not at all bothered by Elrena laying on her lap. “How was your day?” she asked.

Elrena shrugged. “It was meh,” she answered. “Took out a few heartless here and there, no biggie.”

Strelitzia hummed. “That’s good.” she said, idly playing her left hand through her girlfriend’s hair.

Elrena closed her eyes, letting herself relax in the embrace of her girlfriend. After a few minutes, she opened her eyes again. “Hey Strelly,” she said, catching Strelitzia’s attention. Strelitzia hummed in acknowledgement.

“Yeah Sparky?”

“Can I kiss you?”

Strelitzia sputtered, a blush creeping its way onto her face. “Uh, I-Sure?” she answered. “Sparky you don’t really have to ask at this point, we’ve been dating for a few months already.”

The blonde girl shrugged. “Yeah I know, it’s just- Whatever.” she said. Elrena pulled herself up so that she could be eye level with Strelitzia. “Just lemme kiss you already.”

Strelitzia chuckled. “Alright alright,” she said, rolling her eyes. They both leaned towards each other, their lips meeting. Elrena brought her hand up to Strelitzia’s face, caressing it gently. After a moment or two, they pulled away, both somewhat blushing.

Elrena, however, wasn’t satisfied. “One more.” she pleaded. Strelitzia looked at her as if to say really? “Please?” Strelitzia rolled her eyes again, not bothering to hide her smile. 

Once again they kissed, this time for a longer period of time. Elrena pulled away and started kissing Strelitzia on her cheeks, and then her forehead, and then her neck.

“I love you I love you I love you so much.” She repeated like a mantra. “You make me so happy I love you.”

Strelitzia shielded her raging blush with her hands. “I know, Sparky.” she said. “I love you too. You make me so so happy as well.”

Elrena looked at Strelitzia in the eyes. “You’re my entire world. I hope you know that.” she said, placing a kiss on Strelitzia’s forehead.

Strelitzia kissed Elrena in return. “I do Elrena, I do.”

Flowers

It was Elrena's first time inside Strelitzia's room, and she was surprised by the amount of plants in it.

"Do you name them or something?" Elrena asked, lightly making fun of Strelitzia, but not in a mean way.

"If you come up with any names, I'm willing to start calling them that," Strelitzia offered, just completely going over the joke.

"This one is called..." Elrena trailed off, trying to think of a name for the flower in front of her. "Annoying."

Strelitzia giggled. "The actual name is strelitzia, you know."

"You were named after a flower?" Elrena asked. "I think that actually explains a lot."

"I don't like flowers because I was named after one, I just think they're pretty. My brother and I have always made it a point to gift plants to each other for the silliest reasons. It's why I have so many."

Elrena hadn't met Strelitzia's brother yet, but she talked about him a lot. Elrena knew they only had each other, so she supposed it was understandable.

"By the way," Strelitzia said, and Elrena raised an eyebrow over the way she said it. "I actually brought you here for a reason."

Strelitzia walked to one of the flower vases and offered it to her.

"You're giving me one?" Elrena asked, trying to mask her surprise and play it cool. She wasn't sure it had worked.

"My brother and I do it because we care for each other. I thought this might be a good way to show I care about you."

Elrena didn't say anything for a moment, just accepting the vase. That was different. Her parents had never been the best, so she couldn't say when the last time she had received a gift had been.

"I might kill it, but it won't be on purpose," Elrena said. That was as far as she was willing to promise, but...

She wanted these flowers to last as long as they could. She would never say it out loud, but she wanted to show Strelitzia she cared too.

Maybe Strelitzia's brother could give her some advice on the best flowers to buy.
