#sunshine baby mordred

[oneshoulderangel]

Arthur is praying that Mordred doesn’t wake up the minute he puts him down in his crib for the night. Spoiler: his prayers are in vain and Arthur ends up on a coach with Mordred sleeping on his chest.

Don’t feel too bad for Arthur, he was planning on pulling an all nighter anyway, so really Baby Mordred’s strange sleeping preferences forced him to lie down and rest instead of doing paperwork.

ive been obsessed with the concept of merlin who actually runs away with freya because after she got injured he panicked and healed her right in front of arthur. so he panicked, again, and ran away with her to live next to the lake. and they do build their lil cottage and have a strawberry farm and some cows. and they also have time to explore their feelings.

and its the funniest thing, because merlin has also been slowly crushing on arthur, and that much is clear whenever he talks abt him to freya. it doesnt make her jealous or anything, just sad that she knows they'll probably never be together. that the only time that merlin and arthur do "interact" is when merlin secretly saves his ass every week or so. like merlin technically never left, but now he gets creative, uses glamours, learns shape shifting after helping freya with her own curse.

he gets to meet with morgana now, because freya urged him to not leave her alone in this mess, so now we don't get evil morgana (yay!). merlin also tentatively tries to do the same with mordred whenever they do meet with the druids, especially when they were figuring out freya's curse, and mordred grows on merlin, so we also dont get evil mordred (great bonus).

and another thing that ive also been obsessed with thinking is that when the great purge began, nimueh tried to sought out balinor since i think they were friends, being 2 magic users with special abilities (high priestess and dragonlord). and she ended up at ealdor just in time to see merlin be born.

and then they meet later on, and nimueh kinda doesnt believe that that's merlin from ealdor since hes in fucking camelot. but then the questing beast happened. and when merlin goes to kill her, she manages to shield herself last second. and feeling that great power that she felt when merlin was born, because he was almost glowing golden and so potent she almost dropped him when she held lil merlin, her brain fucking stopped. she cannot kill merlin. and so she does something that she almost did when she met hunith, and she understood in that little time why balinor had stayed with her, and nimueh decides to use the power she has for her immortality to ensure arthur lives. so now she will age like a normal human, gaius is alive, and so is arthur. and now merlin and nimueh are very awkward with each other.

especially when a bit of time later they end up meeting with the druids to help freya and theyre also helping nimueh. she felt as if her powers were weaker, but merlin was like "yh no ure lying u feel exactly the same" n leaves thinking nimueh is plotting. when in reality she actually did think her powers were dying and that fear made it seem as if it was actually happening. her mind played tricks on her, and she almost believed her magic was dying.

so after this lil nimueh interlude, lets go back to freya and merlin.

the funniest thing abt theyre situation is that. while merlin is obviously crushing on arthur (and brooding abt it cuz yknow), freya is just. "merlin, i think im crushing on gwen." "???? have u met her?" "no but ive seen her and she smells like a good person and also i like what i know abt her from you." "ok-" "also im crushing on morgana." "freya." "also elyan." "GWENS BROTHER????" "HES. PRETTY. YOU CANT TELL ME THAT NOT TRUE CUZ LAST TIME I CHECKED UR EYES ARE WORKING FINE."

i do think that when freya finally gets control over her curse and has her lil space with merlin, her true sunshine gremlin nature comes out and she manages to be more chaotic than merlin, just also more sweet. and dangerous. she can turn into a literal monster.

also. merlin and freya getting married. and having babies. twins. its been on my MIND non stop yall, this has never happened before idc abt kids-

So I just had a thought about BOC and I think if anyone would have a poly option that might work is the Galahad and Nimue one because I feel their personalities are quite similar, both have asshole dad's, and both want nothing to do with Mordred

😂 I joke but still they are both when children (or so far seen as kids) either more neutral or negative to Mordred and feel with Gawain he wouldn't work as much since he is Galahad's childhood (possibly) bestie and I don't know if Gally can separate friend from love interest or want the possibility to break a good friendship even if there good chance for blossom romance. (But that is just my guess that I could be a hundred percent wrong idk how different baby Gally and adult Gally going be later on)

I don't know about Galahad and Nimue 🤔 They're friends (they get each other in a way others may not) but I'm not sure about romance. And I wouldn't say their personalities are that similar, honestly. Just at a quick glance, Nimue's very guarded and composed but with an easy going, sometimes sardonic front, so to say, whereas Galahad is guarded in a scowly, cold kind of way. He can be quite clumsy with his words and isn't sure how to deal with some emotions, whereas Nimue is measured with what she says and can process through her emotions better but most of the time hides them.

As for Gally - Gawain, on one hand I adore their friendship and the love, care and loyalty they have for one another. On the other hand, as a romance they'd make a cute dynamic: the intimidating but soft on the inside one and the ray of sunshine.

What’s everyone favourite season or weather?

(Headcanon Masterlist) (Full Masterlist)

Aww this is cute!! Most of this is coming out of my arse, some of it is thought through, you guys try to figure out which is which😜

Arthur is quite fond of Autumn! Not too hot, not too cold, so training outside can still happen. It's also one of the best seasons for hunting, so he can get out on horseback more often, and spend hours, if not a couple days at a time, away from Castle Stress™. There are sunny days, but nothing too sweltering that it disturbs the running of the City, and it's the same with rain; there are even the odd Autumn storm, but nothing so ridiculous that it causes damage or lasts more than a few days. His favourite weather is definitely like... warm (not hot), with a slight breeze, and thin cloud cover. No glaring sun, but still warm, breeze will keep him cool but can also help with hunting and stuff.

Merlin is definitely a Spring baby. It's all about growth and animals and plants and beauty!! Plus he loves both bright sunshine, AND storms (a headcanon that comes up in my fics repeatedly lol) which is basically all you get in Spring. If Arthur was slightly smarter, he'd notice that Merlin definitely pulls his disappearing act more often during Spring, because he's off running around in the forest like some kind of feral child. In terms of specific weather, his favourite is definitely a storm. But like a proper storm: loud thunder, bright lightening, rain as if you're stood directly under a waterfall. It’s just... huge, and loud, and bold. Storms are bigger than he is, and out of his control, and that’s kind of comforting for our Warlock. I actually have like... A Whole Fic based around this.

Leon is similar to Arthur, and for all the same reasons. He likes whatever season/weather makes his job as a knight easier, and makes hunting more successful/fun. Does not like storms, like, at all.

I feel like Elyan is probably one of the only ones among them to genuinely enjoy winter more than other seasons. But like... stereotypical winter; snow storms and lit hearths and loads of blankets. He’s not a fan of sleet or hale or rain storms, but he loves when it’s bitterly cold and bright out, or snowing. It just makes existing in his home, or working in the forge, seem so much more special. Plus he has lots of fond memories of sneaking away from his parents and messing about with Gwen, and sometimes even Leon, in the snow.

Percival is similar to Merlin I think, a fan of Spring and sun, though not so much rain and storms. It’s just bright and fresh and like a breath of clean air after the oppressiveness of winter.

Gwen loves her some summer!! The heat makes it difficult and uncomfortable to work sometimes, but it’s also just lovely!! Flowers and bees and butterflies and warmth and sunshine!! Sneaking off to swim in a river, messing around with buckets of water (specifically, sneaking up on Elyan/Merlin/Gwaine/anyone really and dumping said bucket of water over their head). Picnics!! Clear skies to view sunsets and sunrises!! It’s just great and she loves it :D

I want to say that Morgana is edgy and likes Winter, and she may very well claim that, but her favourite season is actually Spring. Usually not too cold, definitely not too hot (and with her pale af skin? Girl gets heat rash really easily and she suffers), but it just feels like a breath of fresh air, like a clean slate. I also like the idea that nature and magic are like... intrinsically intertwined so... she just feels more at ease, even if she doesn’t understand. She likes a bit of a chill but not so cold she’s shivering under a cloak, a nice breeze, and skies clear enough that she has to squint only slightly in the sun.

My man Mordred likes Autumn! Sort of similar reasons to why Merlin and Morgana like Spring, but he’s more a fan of cold weather than hot, so Autumn takes the cake over Spring for him. He’s a fan of the colours, and the weird heatwave that always seems to happen in October, and the growing excitement for Yule, and the harvest, but also just... the idea of the world resetting. He resonates a lot with the idea of peacefully shedding a skin, an idea, a life, and allowing yourself to gently start anew. Spring couldn’t happen without the Autumn.

Lancelot likes Winter me thinks!! For similar-ish reasons to Elyan. When he was travelling he HATED it because it was dangerous to be in the wilderness mid-winter, but now he gets the blessing of a roof over his head and a reliable income and a warm hearth. Winter is like... SO comforting now, it’s blankets and fires and huddling with friends. It’s something he’s never really had before, and it’s always a bit of a novelty that he doesn’t have to be afraid of getting too cold anymore. Merlin thinks this is adorable.

Gwaine is a summer baby through and through. He pushes people in rivers and dumps water on them (do I have a headcanon—that I hope to one day expand on—that Gwaine and Gwen are secretly a chaos duo?? Yes. Absolutely). He’s like a cat, or a lizard, he’ll just find a big rock and fall asleep in the sun; he drinks less in the summer as well, because ale is warming and he’s already warm and in high spirits, which the others appreciate. Man just likes being out in the sun.

Gaius could not care less. He’s got a preference for Spring and Autumn I suppose, because there’s less sickness (like hypothermia/heatstroke) for him to deal with, and just... existing as an old man is far easier when you don’t have to live in some sort of extreme temperature, whichever end of the spectrum it may be.

~

Hope that’s what you’re after anon!! Lemme know if y’all agree or not!! :D

Sins of the Past Pt.27

Storybrooke. The Dragon’s Lair. (After finally managing to get everyone out of the bar, Zelena stays late to clean up.) Zelena: (Hearing a noise outside, calls out:) “We’re closed!” (Walking to the door she peers through the blinds but sees no one. Checking the door is locked, Zelena walks back to the bar when she hears a door close down the hallway. Reaching behind the bar she retrieves a baseball bat and goes to investigate. Heading down the steps that lead to the stock room, Zelena sees that the door is ajar. Pushing it open, she grips the bat with both hands and enters the room.) Robin Hood: “Zelena!” (Dropping the bat, Zelena rushes over to Robin, who is tied to a chair.) Zelena: “Robin. Oh, my God. What happened?” (The door slams shut and Mordred appears behind them.) Mordred: “I happened.”

Zelena: “Ah, so you’re the one everyone’s been searching for. What a disappointment. (Mordred draws a knife:) Stop. (Puts her hands up:) Robin’s got nothing to do with this, okay? You’ve got me now. Okay? Just let him go.” Mordred: “You know, I think people like you give magic a bad name. People like you are the reason Uther banished magic from Camelot, why my father was killed and my people forced to live in caves.” Zelena: “I never even crossed paths with Uther. I didn’t force him to make those choices. And neither did my sister or Emma or anyone else you want to blame for your pitiful existence. You can’t go around killing people because of my bad mistakes.” Mordred: “Yeah, you’re right. It’s time for me to just kill you.” (Mordred lunges at Zelena with the knife, slicing her palm. Trying to put distance between them, Zelena topples over some barrels, causing Mordred to drop the knife. Punching and kicking the man, Zelena gains the upper hand until Mordred sweeps her legs. In an effort to free himself, Robin tips over his chair. Momentarily distracted by this, Mordred allows Zelena to gain possession of the knife and she charges him.) Zelena: (Pinning him against the wall, knife at his throat:) “I don’t want to hurt you.” Mordred: (Chuckles:) “Yes, you do. Do it. What’s one more kill to the Wicked Witch?” Zelena: “No. I’m not that person anymore. I’ve changed. (Knocks him out with the hilt of the knife:) More or less. (Returns to Robin’s side:) Are you hurt?” Robin: “I’m fine, just a little embarrassed, I’ll admit.” Zelena: (Smiles:) “Let me untie you, and I’ll allow you to prove your manliness to me, all right?” Robin: “Agreed.” (While Zelena leans over to untie him, Robin glances over to see that Mordred has now vanished and taken the bloody knife with him.) Sheriff’s Station. (David and Snow White are shoved into two holding cells. Snow collapses onto the bed, barely able to remain upright while David pleads his case to Hook.) David: "This is just one big misunderstanding.” Hook: “No I understand perfectly, mate. Your wife gets drunk, causes an uproar and attacks my wife. My daughter then has to step in, while still recovering from her ordeal I might add, and calls me to help clean up the mess. Is there anything else you’d like to add?” David: “I suppose another apology won’t make a difference?” Hook: “Oh it’ll make all the difference in the world. But not from you. (Points:) She has to apologise to Mal and Lily here tomorrow morning when she’ll actually have to mean what she says. Until then you can both sleep it off and sober up. Have a good evening.” David: (Hook turns off the lights and leaves:) “Hook! Hook! (Turning at the sound of loud snoring, David sees that his wife has already fallen asleep:) Great.”

Storybrooke. Swan-Mills House. The Next Morning. (With the sunlight pouring through the curtains, Emma rolls over and purrs in Regina’s ear.) Emma: “Morning sunshine.” Regina: (Her voice slightly hoarse:) “Is it morning already?” Emma: (Kisses her shoulder and then her neck:) “Mmhmm.” Regina: (Opens her eyes and squints at the sun:) “Ugh. Anything you can do about that?” Emma: (Chuckles:) “One too many last night?” Regina: “I guess so. Though not as many as your mother, I’ll wager.” Emma: “Hm. Speaking of, I just got a text from Lily, I’d better go in and bail my parents out of jail.” Regina: “Put on some coffee before you go? I promised I’d take Ella to my office to check some records.” Emma: (Kisses her cheek:) “You got it.” (Emma gets out of bed while Regina plants her face in the pillow, trying to avoid the sunlight.) Camelot. Forest. (Morgause meets her undead knights in the woods. They dismount their horses and bow before her.) Camelot Castle. Council Chamber. (Guinevere and Morgana listen to Lancelot while he recounts what happened at Idirsholas.) Guinevere: “So it’s true, the Knights of Medhir have risen?” Xena: (Cutting in:) “Yes and there’s only one person foolish or desperate enough to raise such an army.” Gabrielle: “Morgause.” Morgana: (Panicked, to Guinevere:) “Guin, I had no knowledge of this, I swear.” Guinevere: “Are you certain that Morgause is behind this?” Xena: (Scoffs:) “Now is not the time to wait for proof.” Gabrielle: “Your Majesty, need we remind you the last time we waited for evidence of Morgause’s guilt?” Xena: (Draws her sword and points it at Morgana:) “Or hers for that matter.” Guinevere: (Stepping between Xena and Morgana:) “Enough! I trust Morgana and I will not have her threatened like this.” Xena: (Lowers her sword:) “She may have you fooled but right now there’s an army of the undead riding towards Camelot and we have no way of stopping them.” Guinevere: (Nods. To Lancelot:) “Gather reinforcements, position every available man we have at the gates. If we can’t stop them we can at least slow them down.” Lancelot: “It will be done, my Queen.” (Lancelot leaves with his knights while Xena continues to glare at Morgana.)

Wonderland. (Will and Anastasia walk through the woods.) Will: “Remind me again why you can’t just poof us to Storybrooke?” Anastasia: “A lot’s happened since you’ve been away. There was a coup in Camelot, refugees, captured dragons, it’s been a whole drama. Long story short, Storybrooke’s borders are magically protected, so I can’t get us there using my magic.” The White Rabbit’s House. (Will knocks firmly on the door.) White Rabbit: (Calling out from inside:) “Nobody’s home!” Will: “Now, Rabbit, don’t be that way.” White Rabbit: “No rabbit here! Just a happy family enjoying some quality time together. Alone!” Will: “This won’t take more than a minute.” White Rabbit: “Time is a precious commodity, Knave. One minute is sixty seconds which is sixty thousand milliseconds. Do you know how much I can accomplish in sixty thousand milliseconds?” Will: “You wouldn’t be enjoying any milliseconds if I hadn’t found your bloody family. Now, open the door.” White Rabbit: (Reluctantly opens the door:) “What is it you want?” Will: “It’s not about what I want. (Steps aside, revealing Anastasia:) It’s about what she wants.” White Rabbit: (Shocked:) “Wha-” (The White Rabbit runs away from the door, taking refuge behind the kitchen stove. Will and Anastasia enter the house.) Anastasia: “Please, Rabbit, don’t be afraid. I’m not gonna hurt you.” White Rabbit: “You’ve already taken my wife, my children, my honor. What more could you possibly want from me?” Anastasia: “Your forgiveness.” Will: “It’s true, Rabbit, it’s been kind of her thing lately.” Anastasia: (Continues:) “What I took from you when I was the Red Queen, I can never give back, and there’s nothing that I can offer you to make up for what you’ve already lost, but what I can say is, I’m sorry, Rabbit. Terribly sorry.” White Rabbit: (Shakes his head, steps out from behind the stove:) “What’s done is done. Why do you care if I forgive you?” Anastasia: “Because we need your help.” White Rabbit: “With what?” Anastasia: “I need you to take us to Storybrooke, we don’t have much time but we need to make a stop on the way.” Storybrooke. Sheriff’s Department. (Snow White stands holding the bars to her cell while apologising to Lily, who seems uninterested.) Snow White: “I’m truly sorry, Lily. I don’t know what came over me.” Lily: “About six shots and a bacardi chaser, according to Zelena.” Snow White: “I never would have said any of those things if-” Lily: “If you weren’t drunk? Well that’s honest at least.” Snow White: “Please, Lily. We’ve been in here all night, we told Neal we’d only be a couple of hours.” Lily: (Holds up her coffee cup:) “I just saw Neal. He’s having a great time serving people napkins at Granny’s.”

Elsa: (Sitting perched on one of the desks:) “Oh yes he was so sweet, Snow. You should’ve seen him running around the diner laughing and talking to everyone. It was so-” Emma: (Enters:) “Charming?” David: “Emma, thank God. Please can you get us out of here?” Emma: “No can do, Dad. (Holds up a note:) It says here your release is dependent on you apologising to Maleficent.” David: “But it’s Thanksgiving!” Emma: “Right, which is why you should be thankful she’s not pressing charges against you two. Now I don’t want to be here any more than you do, I’m just here to keep the peace.” Snow White: “But eventually Neal’s going to worry where we are.” Emma: “Hey, you’re not the only one unable to pick up their kid. Since you’re both in here and because Regina’s helping Ella with something at her office, I had to ask Belle to pick up Maria from the convent for us.” Convent of the Sisters of Saint Meissa. (Arriving at the convent, Belle enters the babies’ nursery room, carrying a formula bottle for Maria.) Belle: “Why, hello, little one. Hey. Did you sleep well? Yeah?” Mother Superior: (Enters:) “Belle. What are you doing here?” Belle: (Holds up the bottle:) “Uh, formula for the baby?” Mother Superior: (Laughs:) “Of course. Here. I’ll help.” (She goes to pick up Maria but sensing something’s not quite right, Belle stops her.) Belle: “Uh, no it’s all right, I’ve got her.” Mother Superior: “Oh.” Belle: (Suspicious:) “Uh, Mother Superior, what… what’s going on?” Mother Superior: “Nothing. Everything’s fine.” Belle: “Mm…”

Mother Superior: (Enters, holding her wand:) “No, it’s not.” Belle: “What…” Mother Superior: (Stands in front of the imposter:) “Who are you?” Imposter: (Chuckles:) “You really are a clever fairy.” (Mordred morphs back into his normal appearance.) Belle: (Gasps:) “No, no, no. People are searching for you. Ho-How did you…” Mordred: “All you need to know is that I’ve come for the baby. So, if you wish to remain alive, step aside.” (Mordred picks up Maria who is now crying.) Belle: “Put her… put her down.” Mordred: “Or what? Hmm? You’ll smite me with your book learnin’?” Mother Superior: (Pointing her wand at Mordred:) “Oh, I have something more than that.” Mordred: “Please. Neither of you would dare risk hurting this child.” Belle: (Breathing heavily:) “No, you… you don’t want to take that baby.” Mordred: “Oh yes I do, and I don’t mind hurting you to get what I want.” Belle: “Okay. We’ll see.” (Belle reaches to try and grab Maria back, but Mordred’s eyes glow golden and he blasts Belle and Mother Superior backwards.) Mayor’s Office. (Regina enters her office and finds Ella looking through some of the files she requested.) Regina: “Well, Mr. K says that’s all the records he has available. Have you found what you needed yet?” Ella: “Almost.” Regina: (Glancing at her watch, anxious to get the turkey in the oven:) “Perhaps if you told me what you were looking for?” Ella: “I’m trying to reconcile in my head how someone so sweet and loving could do such terrible things to so many people.” Regina: “What?” Ella: “I could even forgive all of that and put it all down to you being in a dark place. But to stand there and lie to me, to send me on some wild goose chase when you’ve known the truth the whole time.” Regina: “Ella, I’m sorry but I don’t-” Ella: “Or maybe because you’ve killed so many, you just don’t remember her?” Regina: “Ella, what is this?” Ella: “I know it was you who killed my mother, Regina. (Pulling a carving knife from her back pocket, she slams it down on the desk in front of her:) And now I want to know why.”

Sheriff’s Department. (Now joined by Hook, Emma and Lily continue preparations to close down the office for the long holiday weekend.) David: “How much longer are you going to keep us here for? We have to go home, shower and change before coming to your place for dinner.” Hook: (Cutting in:) “Maleficent is a night person, mate. Always has been. She’ll make an appearance shortly, don’t worry.” Snow White: “Oh I’m not worried, I’m furious.” Hook: “Temper, temper. Perhaps it’s in the public’s interest to keep you behind bars after all.” Emma: (Rolling her eyes:) “Keep it together, Mom. I’m giving Maleficent another twenty minutes and then we’re all getting out of here.” (Zelena enters, accompanied by Robin.) Lily: “Zelena, Robin, what’s the matter?” Robin: “My Mom was attacked by that knight you’re all looking for.” Emma: “Mordred? When did this happen?” Zelena: “Last night after Regina’s show. I was closing up and-” Robin: “Mordred tied up Robin Hood in the basement and slashed my Mom’s hand with a knife. Show them.” (Robin grabs Zelena’s hands raises it.) Hook: “Why haven’t you used your magic to heal it?” Zelena: “I’ve tried that, genius. There must’ve been a magical substance on the blade or something to stop the wound from closing.” Emma: “Why would Mordred come after you?” Zelena: (Shrugs:) “Family is always an easy target. (Inclines her head towards the cells:) And I see those two idiots are already locked up. Maybe he figured by going after me he could get to you?” Emma: “If it’s me he wants, why not come directly at me?” Lily: “What took you so long to report this?” Zelena: “Oh I had to spend the night soothing Robin Hood’s ego. Besides, I walloped Mordred pretty thoroughly, I doubt he’ll be coming after me again.” Rumplestiltskin: (Enters:) “No, he found an easier target.” Emma: (Sees him enter with Belle, carrying baby Gideon:) “Rumple, Belle, what- (Stops short:) That’s not Maria.” Belle: (Shakes her head, clutching Gideon tightly:) “No, I’m so sorry, Emma.” Emma: (Looking back and forth between Rumplestiltskin and Belle:) “Where’s Maria?!” Rumplestiltskin: “There’s no easy way to say this, but Mordred has your daughter, Emma. We believe he’s taken Maria to Camelot.”

[solohux]

(Part One) I was thinking about that Christmas Carol AU and I was inspired (not the anon who wrote it by the way I just really dug it so hats off to whoever wrote it) but an AU of that AU where the force ghost of Christmas future shows Kylo a hard truth; Hux still loves him, will always love him, but he is not willing to sacrifice their baby so he, Techie, and Mitaka plan a daring escape. Mitaka and Hux get away but Techie has to stay behind to ensure they escape safely. (Had to break this up)

(Part 2) So Kylo watches in growing horror as his future self interrogates Hux's brother, this kid who was all sunshine and rainbows and looked up to him and who he always had a soft spot for, and when Techie is unwilling to surrender his brother, kills him. Kylo is beginning to break but that isn't it. The ghost shows him further into the future when it's time for Hux to deliver. Turns out difficult births run in the Skywalker family but Hux can't get the necessary medical help he needs because

(Part 3) he's in hiding and so, like Padme, he dies giving birth to his and Kylo's only son; a little boy with seafoam green eyes and bright hair, but Kylo's face. In his final moments Kylo can sense how badly Hux wants him there, can practically see his name on the other man's lips, but Hux holds back. He has to protect his son. He dies and Mitaka adopts the baby who, in a moment of hatred and bitterness over the loss of his bestfriend, names after the man who came the closest to killing Kylo

(Part 4) He names him Luke. By this point Kylo is completely broken and in tears but the journey is not over yet. The ghost of the future shows him years down the line; Supreme Leader Kylo Ren, grey and golden eyed, heirless and alone, finally free of any emotional attachments facing off against a young man with seafoam green eyes and his own face. Kylo watches as he finally completes the transformation into his grandfather; he watches him fight his own son. Only there is no happy ending.

(Part 5) Luke wins but before he kills his father, he spits in his face and curses the day he stole his family from them. He denounces Kylo as his father and beheads him with his lightsaber (blue and unstable, much like the first one made by Ben Solo). And this is it for present!Kylo. It brings him to his knees and leaves him sobbing uncontrollably; he killed everyone he ever loved, who ever loved him, and became the father he always feared he would be. But what hurts the most is seeing his

(Part 6) it's his son's eyes that hurt him the most. Hux's eyes looking at him with such hate. So Kylo wakes up from this mess and rushes to stop Hux from leaving. He's beyond hysterical, sobbing uncontrollably, and begging for forgiveness. He promises not to harm anyone, to want the baby, and after a lot of hard work, he wins back their trust. Hux finally goes to deliver surrounded by medics and a very anxious Kylo pacing the room and constantly asking if Hux wants him to force heal him but

(Part 7) it all goes fine. The baby is born with bright hair, seafoam green eyes, and Kylo's face (he jokes about how he was hoping this time the baby would have Hux's ears and nose but Hux decides not to ask him what he means by that) so anyway now they have to name the baby. Kylo thinks back to an old Chandrilian legend and suggests Mordred and Hux tells him that's a very dark name for their child since Mordred kills his father but the baby gurgles happily hearing it so Mordred it is.

(Part 8) So Kylo learns his lesson and changed his plans about fatherhood. He becomes so devoted to Hux and Mordred, and when Hux becomes pregnant again, he is equally as gentle and loving to their other children. Still, sometimes when he's playing with his son or is alone with Hux, Kylo looks into their eyes and starts to cry. He never tells them why that is. Also holy shit this is really long. I apologize. I just got really swept up there for a second!

Oh my gosh, what a rollercoaster! This AU is my jam, you’ve got no idea. The angst! Kylo killing Techie, the most loyal brother there ever was, and Hux dying in childbirth just like Padmé. A tragic touch! And baby Luke. Oh my. I love that so much. I’m glad that timeline didn’t come to be, though! And I hope baby Mordred grows up to be strong and fights alongside his father instead of against him! And Techie? Please let Techie be the loving and caring uncle that his nephew needs!

Thank you so much for sharing this! ❤️

Mordred!Kylo AU - Luke training Rey and realizing there is another like Kylo

Part I of AU for context!  (The general gist of it is that, uh, accidental incest=Luke is actually Kylo Ren’s father. Yeah. You have been sufficiently warned.) 

They’re the same.

The thought snakes in one night, sitting by the crackling fire. Rey is prodding the stack of wood with a stick, crouched on her haunches and sweat beading her brow. When she knocks a precarious piece of wood too far and it collapses into the pile, a wall of sparks flash up. The warm brown of her eyes catches the light, for a second, and Luke thinks of another pair of burning eyes, wreathed by flames.

But then she laughs, smile splitting her face, and the moment breaks.

Even made of the same star-stuff, housing the same unbearable, crushing force, there is one crucial difference between them: Rey is not his mistake. She is not his burden to bear.

He knew the truth of her the day she broke Ahch-To.

Already weary of this strange, miraculous, force-sensitive girl, Luke had never thought she could hold such raw strength within her. But the kyber within his old lightsaber—his father’s old lightsaber—sung when it rested in her hands. That should’ve been his first clue.

That bright afternoon, when she swung the blade, the whole stone pillar came shuddering down.

“Don’t let it overwhelm you,” he called into the settling dust, squinting to find her against the rubble. “Don’t try and grab onto it, just let it flow through you.”

He found her, eyes closed, panting, and she was so bright it hurt to look. There, under the brilliant blue shock of sky, Rey breathed out, and cracked the island in two.

“I don’t know if I can teach you any more,” Luke says.

Rey starts. “What?”

He gestured towards that crack now, following it as it slopes up, jagged edges disappearing under a pile of loose rocks. Rey notices and follows his line of sight, then looks down at her hands, dangling before her, and scowls.

Luke finds himself at a loss for words.

“I’m sorry,” Rey says. “I don’t know what that was. I just did what you told me to—I let it all pour out, and I didn’t think about where it would all go, and then…” She looks up and meets his eyes, worrying her lip between her teeth. “I don’t know what I did.”

“That’s why I can’t—” Luke cuts himself off with a shake of his head. “I don’t know what that was either, Rey,” he says. “It’s beyond me.”

“You know better than I do.” There is an unspoken you’re Luke Skywalker, the last Jedi Master—of course you do.

Slowly, Luke shakes his head.

“Please,” Rey says, scrambling to her feet, but sounding smaller.

Luke leans his elbows on his knees, hands clasped before him. The flames dance, fury bright. “I’ve already failed once,” he admits. “The last time I tried to teach someone like you, it didn’t end very well.”

He knew the truth of Ben before he was born, but it took the temple collapsing around the both of them for Luke to truly accept it.

There was nothing but the calm, the two of them meditating alone in the dying light of the sun. The rest of the students were sparring just beside the temple, underneath a precarious outcrop of slate. There had been nothing, and then Luke had stolen that serene moment to break the news: you’re going back, Ben. Your mother misses you. I have to focus on the new students, and I’ve taught you enough.

The truth was that day by day, it grew harder, watching Ben grow out of his baby fat, his face sharpening into something too-familiar. Every morning, Ben had insisted on the two of them, going out to the flat mirror lake for a moment or two, and every morning, all Luke could do was stare down at their reflections in the water and let dread settle in his stomach like sediment.

So when he called Leia, said he had to focus on building an academy, said he was too busy, said Ben missed her, well. Leia understood.

Ben had stared at him, wide eyed and open mouthed, and Luke had put his hand on the (his) boy’s shoulder, and then—

Everything after that was fire. But before the rubble, Luke had coughed, tried to claw himself out of the smoke, and saw only blazing eyes, then the tears.

In the still of night, they both think of the same thing. The same someone.

“Tell me about him,” Rey says, brows furrowed. “How did you try and teach him?”

“Not very well.”

She scoffs. “That’s an understatement, isn’t it?”

Luke raises an eyebrow. “Fair.”

“What was he like? Before?”

At that, he has to give pause. There was so much of all of them in Ben. So much of all their hopes and dreams had ridden on his shoulders, even if some part of Luke knew that was a doomed endeavor from day one.

“Quiet,” he says instead. “He never talked much. Sometimes I wonder if it would’ve turned out better if we made it easier for him to.”

“What’s that mean?”

“I loved him,” Luke says. “We all did. Maybe too much.”

Rey frowns. “How is it possible to love a person too much?”

“I tried to save him from himself,” Luke murmurs. “I thought if I pushed him away, it would be easier on the both of us. I never considered that he might’ve seen that as abandonment.”

At that, Rey falls still and silent. She holds her jaw with an iron edged will. Something flickers, the will of the force matching the ever shifting unpredictable flames, and panic flares briefly in Luke’s chest until she closes her eyes, relaxes her shoulders, and the spark dies. They both breathe a little easier.

Rey tosses the stick back into the fire, then sits down, leaning back on her elbows as she tilts her chin towards the dotted sky. “That’s the worst thing you can do to a person,” she says, voice thick.

“I know.”

“Is that why he left?”

Luke nods.

Rey sprawls her legs out in front of her. “Is that why you want me to leave, too?”

At that, Luke has no words.

She’s not yours, some insidious voice says in the back of his mind. It crackles like the fire. Rey meets his gaze, calmer than she was before, though her mouth is set in a hard line. She looks nothing like Ben. She looks nothing like any of them, her hair a tangled mess about her head, only open curiosity in her eyes.

“I’m not him,” Rey says. Something hard-edged lines her voice. “I’ll never be him. I’m not afraid of this,” she says, thumping her chest. “I just want to understand it.”

Something hotter than anger simmers below the surface of her eyes.

“You never told me where you were from,” Luke says.

Rey furrows her brow. “Does it matter?”

“No,” Luke says, the corner of his mouth lifting. “Call it curiosity.”

Rey’s scowl deepens. Something passes by overhead, some ship or else some doomed star, lights flaring over them and the broken island. Rey tilts her head down, and the light paints one side of her face a slick, glowing yellow.

“I’m from Jakku,” she says. “Somewhere else before that, I’m sure, but Jakku’s all I remember.”

At that, Luke’s face splits into a grin. The irony of it makes his head spin. He used to sit and wonder if Ben would come back to him, prodigal and furious, here to destroy the last of his own legacy without even knowing the truth of his birth. But now, here he is, faced with a desert girl with Ben’s power and his old burning hope, bright but sharp, ready to fight in whatever way she can.

The road ahead of them stretches, long and steeped in dark.

“Alright,” Luke says. He stands, clears the sand out of his old metallic joints, and offers Rey a hand up. “Maybe there’s something left I can teach you.”

She smiles up at him, sunshine in the night. “Thank you,” she says.

They put the fire out. Luke brushes his cold hand over the ashes left over and wonders if this is a second chance, if Rey can control that bright and terrible power within her, if Luke can fix his mistakes—maybe it means the tide can be changed, maybe it means some things aren’t beyond saving.

Every time I see bad dad Arthur and sad mordred content, I shall counter it by posting Doting Dad Arthur and Sunshine Baby Mordred content. The universe must remain balanced. So enjoy this incredibly rough sketch.

Being king doesn’t leave a lot of time for baby bonding time, so Arthur multitasks. Bath time and meeting time are both messy affairs anyway, so why not combine them.

Warning: Lảm nhảm về chuyện chơi game, ngôn ngữ không đứng đắn, xen lẫn vài thứ tiếng ngoài tiếng mẹ đẻ

Dạo này hơi lười update blog, nguyên nhân chủ yếu do có một fic mà viết mãi chưa xong, mà nguyên nhân của việc viết mãi chẳng xong là bạn đã sa chân vào ‘đầm lầy’ game có tên Fate/Grand Order (FGO).

Như mọi game online khác, FGO khá tốn thời gian (và tốn tiền nữa nhưng đó là một vấn đề khác): story quest, daily quest, event… Vậy là tranh thủ rảnh lúc nào là bạn lại log in vào game, mà buổi tối là thời gian được chơi nhiều nhất, cũng không bị gián đoạn cho nên buổi tối – thời gian trước đây dành cho fic – đã trở thành thời gian chơi game cộng đọc truyện.

Đọc truyện à?

Chẳng là dạo này tự dưng bạn hứng thú với truyện trinh thám, thế là tự dưng tậu luôn combo ba tập đầu của series Pháp Y Tần Minh, sau đó còn được tặng tiếp cuốn 4 và 5 nữa, mà series này phải nói là cuốn nào cuốn nấy dày cộp như sách giáo khoa của môn pháp y vậy, thời gian cần để đọc hết hẳn không ít.

Bạn đang nói đến truyện, không phải phim nhé. Truyện hay hơn nhiều.

Cái chính là bạn có thể vừa cày game vừa đọc truyện nhưng không thể vừa bấm game vừa đánh chữ (chưa tính đến việc chơi game và viết fic đều được thực hiện trên điện thoại).

Và cũng vì vừa chơi game vừa đọc truyện nên tần suất ‘chơi ngu’ của bạn chẳng hề thấp, tức đưa ra quyết định ‘trời hỡi’ đó mà, nhẹ thì trận đáng nhẽ ra chỉ cần 10 turn thì cần đến 15–16 turn, nặng thì Servant bị đánh bay thẳng về Anh Linh Toạ luôn. Có lần thế này, bạn đi event để farm vật liệu, đinh ninh event không khó và đã vượt vài lần rồi nên bạn chủ quan, cho rằng ‘chơi ngu’ tý cũng không sao, vừa bấm máy vừa lật sách. Kết quả? Trong lúc bác sỹ Tần Minh vừa đặt lưỡi dao xuống thi thể thì cũng là lúc vừa hết turn, người chơi phải ra command mới. Ngó qua ngó lại, bạn tá hoả khi thấy Yến Thanh và Con Mèo nhà bạn đã ‘thăng thiên’, báo hại trận ấy suýt thua.

Nhân tiện, Yến Thanh là Yến Thanh trong bộ Thuỷ Hử, trong FGO là một Servant thuộc class Assassin, còn “Con Mèo” là biệt danh thân thương bạn đặt cho Atalanta, Servant Archer.

Đây là Yến Thanh (Yan Qing)

Người chơi FGO riết rồi toàn gọi Servant bằng biệt danh cả, khi nào ‘thanh niên nghiêm túc’ mode on thì mới viết tên nhân vật đầy đủ. Vậy là game có các nhân vật là anh hùng thần thoại, lịch sử… ngó qua ngó lại thì toàn Culi, Rồng nhọ, Hậu duệ mặt trời, Gà, Ngoại, Mama, Doggo, Cậu Vàng, Đấng, Umu, vân vân và vân vân.

Khá nhiều người chơi thích gọi Servant mình yêu mến là waifu hoặc husband nhưng bạn thì thích gọi đám nhà bạn là baby hơn.

Đây là game có thể khiến người chơi ức chế tột độ hoặc sung sướng tột cùng chỉ với trò quay ‘xổ số’ ra Servant. Hay không bằng hên chính là phương châm của game: bạn có thể tốn hết 300 gem nhưng chẳng ra Servant ngon nghẻ một chút trong khi bạn của bạn chỉ tốn 3 gem đã có Servant 5 sao. Đời bất công thế đấy.

Vì quá bất mãn với vụ quay xổ số này nên một ngày xấu trời (aka sinh nhật bạn Joel), bạn Joel dạo eBay và mua một acc gem – tức acc chẳng có gì ngoài rất nhiều gem và ticket để quay. Vốn bạn muốn có Karna và đã ‘me’ được 1,2 acc có Karna nhưng bạn muốn thử cảm giác ‘lấy gem đè luck’ nó ra sao, hơn nữa, Servant do mình tự quay ra vẫn quý hơn mua về chứ.

Và đây là kết quả: Ozy (Ozymandias hay còn được biết đến là Ramses II) là Servant 5 sao đầu tiên về đội bạn – tín hiệu khả quan, tiếp theo là Mordred, Brynhildr, Karna (finally!!!), Tamano no Mae và Y tá Nightingale. Servant 4 sao thì có: Con Mèo, Yến Thanh (x2), Rama, Nero, Tamano Cat, Medusa Loli và Culi (x4).

Đây là Ozy

Chuyện quay cũng có nhiều cái buồn cười. Chẳng hạn bạn nhắm Gil Caster thì lại ra Tamano; bạn nhắm Cú Alter (Cú Chulainn phiên bản Berserker) và Ông chú quốc dân Vlad (Vlad Tepes aka Dracula) thì lại ra Y tá. Sau đó, biết được thật ra Gil là 4 sao còn Tamano 5 sao và Y tá có skill và NP buff thì bạn rút lại lời than thở. Than quá hết luck chứ chẳng chơi!

Bạn chẳng nhắm Culi đâu vậy mà Culi cứ về đều đều thôi. Chỉ trong một ngày mà bạn quay được 1 Culi bên server US và… 4 Culi bên server Nhật. Tại sao?! Chẳng lẽ Culi ‘đổ’ bạn rồi nên quyết ‘ám’ bằng được?!

Sao Karna không ‘ám’ bạn nhỉ?

Nhắc đến Karna, bạn cảm thấy mình đã dùng cạn luck trong tháng, thậm chí trong năm khi lúc đó bạn còn khoảng 200 gem và hai mấy cái vé, và bạn quyết định đổ hết vào gacha Lancer hôm đó với hy vọng mong manh là chàng trai bạch tạng sẽ ghé mắt đến bạn. Karna thân yêu xuất hiện chỉ bằng 1 ticket và toả sáng như ánh mặt trời giữa ngày nhật thực. Thật tình lúc đó bạn chỉ muốn hát vang “You’re my sunshine, my only sunshine” thôi.

Xem như món quà sinh nhật (muộn 1 ngày) hệ thống dành cho bạn vậy.

Niềm vui sẽ càng trọn vẹn hơn nếu bạn quay được cả Rồng nhọ, tức Siegfried để thỏa mãn máu ship Siegfried x Karna, tiếc là mãi Rồng nhọ vẫn chưa chịu về. Cho đến đợt free Servant 4 sao sắp tới…

Lý trí thì bảo bạn cần thêm Caster, hãy rước Gil Caster về còn trái t(r)ym fan gái thì kêu gào hãy rước Rồng nhọ về chơi với Karna dẫu nhà bạn đã tạm đủ Saber, chỉ hơi thiếu Caster và Rider. Không biết đến lúc cầm tick trong tay thì máu sẽ chảy về bên nào?

Chợt nhớ ra, bạn là người chơi ‘bánh bèo’, nhân vật xinh trai đẹp gái mới muốn dùng nên dự là lúc đó sẽ ‘trái t(r)ym lầm chỗ để trên đầu’ mà thôi.

Cũng vì ham mê trai xinh gái đẹp nên bạn nuôi hơi nhiều Servant một chút, kết quả, hay hậu quả là ‘nhà nghèo, con em nheo nhóc’, tức là Servant thì đông nhưng card exp để nâng level thì ít.

Hệ lụy kéo theo là có Servant này được ‘cưng’ hơn Servant khác và được ưu tiên nâng level trước. Your favoritism is showing, Joel, có gì cũng dành hết cho Karna thân yêu. Chắc là Ozy và Brynhildr đang giận mình lắm đây.

    Nhắc đến Brynhildr, bạn Joel phải xin lỗi chế. Từ lúc rước được chế về, con mắt vừa viễn vừa loạn của bạn nhìn thế nào mà cứ tưởng chế 4 sao thôi. Mãi hôm nay feed exp cho chế mới tá hỏa nhận thấya hoá ra chế cần đến level 50 mới có Ascension lần đầu, meaning chế là 5 sao, 5 sao đó!

Hy vọng tương lai không còn màn nhìn nhầm số sao của Servant như thế này.

Quay lại chuyện ‘chơi ngu’, bạn cảm thấy rất có lỗi với các Servant của mình khi cứ làm họ chết hoài, thậm chí có lúc cả party (bao gồm Servant mượn của người ta) bay luôn về Anh Linh Toạ. Bên cạnh đó, bạn cũng không ít lần gặp phải tình cảnh bên ta còn 1 và bên địch cũng còn 1, tức là solo. Hên thì phe ta thắng trong gang tấc – như lần Yến Thanh tay không đả chimera (ăn theo Võ Tòng tay không đả hổ) – còn xui thì phải dùng Lệnh chú hồi sinh (xui hơn nữa là cả Lệnh chú cũng xài hết). Có một lần đi làm quest của Rồng nhọ, Robin phe ta còn khoảng 1k hp và phe địch còn khoảng 2k hp, tiếc là Robin E-luck nên đã hy sinh, mặc dù anh đã chiến đấu rất anh dũng. Sau trận đó càng thương Robin hơn.

Vì thương nên phải share một hình Robin thật đẹp.

  Thật vất vả để nuôi nấng Rồng nhọ cho đủ lông đủ cánh (server US). Chắc không có game nào khiến bạn vui mừng khi lượm được một… quả óc chó hay một cái răng rồng như game này.

À, bạn vừa quay được anh dzai da nhọ Angra Mainyu (viết đúng chính tả chưa nhỉ) mà nghe giang hồ đồn rằng nếu anh ấy về team bạn thì luck bạn sẽ lên voi hoặc xuống chó, không biết tương lai bạn Joel với game này sẽ ra sao nữa.

(Ngộ còn cần luck để đón Rồng nhọ về với Karna à nha.)

Episode 190917 – Chuyện chơi game Warning: Lảm nhảm về chuyện chơi game, ngôn ngữ không đứng đắn, xen lẫn vài thứ tiếng ngoài tiếng mẹ đẻ

[anyanoconeco]

Oh Mordred. Sweet little bowl of sunshine. My poor baby. You did not deserve your storyline. Then again all the characters pretty much get shafted by the end anyway.

In my headcanon, everyone is alive and happy, Arthur knows about Merlin's magic and still loves him. Merlin trusts and is nice to Mordred and there are magical shenanigans. Gwen and Lancelot get their epic romance without hurting anyone's feelings. Morgana is still good and helps Arthur rule like the badass stateswomen that she is. Even Morgause gets to hangout and be awesome. Everyone is happy.

Except Uther. He can stay dead. No one needs him.

Mordred s5 + black & white {requested by petercapaldis}

[oneshoulderangel]

To celebrate Mordred’s birthday (and also to take our mind of the horrors associated with it) I present a sketch of Sunshine Mordred enjoying a sweet cake for his birthday.

[oneshoulderangel]

Mordred’s first snow.

The holiday season would not be complete without sunshine Mordred content. Arthur takes baby Mordred for a quick walk in the snow. Afterwards, they went back inside for cuddles by the fireside.

[oneshoulderangel]

I wanted to do a more full comic of Mordred and Arthur, but life got in the way so please enjoy these little rough sketches of baby Mordred.
