#take them out of my hands

[rayno-minior]

what follows are *my* personal headcannons of Dove, and their backstory.

fair content/trigger warning: small mentions of blood, mild hinted brain damage/brain aneurysm(?)

Well, I had the idea that my Dove's parents were a weather forecaster and a journalist. They're both unattuned but they do know about this aspect of the world. So when they found out about Dove being an attuned of the clairvoyant variety, they're parents funded a lot of money and time for Dove to hone their sorcery, to be used for a food purpose.

Dove would still have been very young when it started, maybe about 7 or 8, but they had a good enough grasp on their visions to decipher when they happen. Things would start when their weather forecaster parent would ask Dove if they could take a peak into what the future weather report was going to look like. It would start seeing clear skies, light showers of rain, strong winds, etc. And it all was pretty accurate from the time frame.

But one day Dove would be seeing a big flood was coming for their town in about two weeks. And it happened, destroyed half of the town but the population was save thanks to the warning of Dove's vision.

Which would've been celebratory but their journalist parent became very high on the admiration of their family, their child saving the town and being able to write about it. They would start to push Dove to specifically watch for bad visions. Which was a very stressful time for the poor Dove. Eventually the stress got so bad, they were getting constant streams of unfortunate future events, it would actually have them bed-ridden because migraine, hyperventilation and intense shivering.

When they pushed beyond their breaking point, they had a blood vessel in their brain burst and spit blood, from the stress of being pushed to see the worst of the future. It had them hospitalized for a while (it could've been between days and a month). Both their parents were distraught at the development, it definitely knocked the journalist parent out of the clouds and grounded them immensely. They never asked Dove to look into the future after that, they didn't want their child suffering under it again.

After that event, and the damage on their brain that still needed to heal, Dove's vision became very fuzzy, muddled, and unclear. The rare clear visions would be very fractured and out of order, there was no saying which of them would happen first, if at all. So they wouldn't even be able to use their sorcery for their parents, even if they wanted to.

With that their outlook on the future, their future felt very cold, empty and numb. As a way to cope with it they'd develop the shameless confidence we see in the audios.

It was when meeting Cyril that their visions started become brighter again. Still fractured and out of order, but brighter, lighter. Which is why they would become his personal terror, to be with the person that is quite literally, the light at their tunnel.

phew. I had fun writing this out. I hope the bit of angst wasn't heavy on the stomach.

Please remember this is just my personal headcannon of Dove's upbringing. Our different iterations of Dove can exist together 🙏 feel free to share if you want to

forever annoyed at the lack of non-woven jedi garments. excuse you, fibrecraft is the basis of society. where are they getting their cloth from? are they weaving it themselves? are they spinning it themselves? where is the knitwear. you cannot tell me that there are no sweaters in the jedi order. there are probably hideous sweaters made from fourteen different colours of yarn because they're made from the wool leftover from other projects. all of the colours manage to clash. and embroidery is just too good for teaching patience. hand-sewing in general is good and meditative.

these people are going to be darning their own socks, patching holes in their robes. they are going to have needles and thread in their survival kits and know how to hold the cloth tension just right with the force so they can re-weave the bigger holes by using tiny, straight sticks to hold the warp in place.

Tfw you (currently obsessed with ISAT who never plays pokemon) play a soul-link nuzlocke with a friend (in for a world of torment) and you can't pay attention to a health bar for the life of you nor remember what types are weak to what.

Spoiler under the cut :)

Guy how did you manage to un-evolve yourself
