Preston Whitmore has such queer reading potential. Meets Thaddius Thatch at Georgetown, a school with a significant queer history. They become best friends instantly, support each other's dreams and special interests, make a bet to kiss and follow through on it. After 49 years together, Thaddeus passes of old age. At which point Preston reaches out to Thaddeus's nerdy bi twink grandson who reminds him of Thaddeus and essentially adopts him.

ASSORTED HEADCANONS — Milo James Thatch
When I first started writing as Milo, I wanted to pursue a holistic approach to his character that actively took into careful consideration the turbulent time period in which he lived. Here are some of the headcanons I’ve come up with him, to give y’all a better picture of my portrayal.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Growing up in GILDED AGE AMERICA had an enormous impact on Milo's character, and plays a distinct role in determining the course of his reaction to Rourke's betrayal. During this time period, "ROBBER BARONS" such as J.P. Morgan, Andrew Carnegie, and John D. Rockefeller ruled with an iron fist over their respective industries, flaunting their wealth and prioritizing profit over people in order to get ahead. Rourke's plan surely would have eerily reminded Milo of the greed exhibited by these individuals, heightening his aversion beyond the fierce desire to protect Atlantis and her people. The negative consequences of AMERICAN CAPITALISM were on full display as Milo came of age, and it is this that enables him to so clearly predict the mechanisms through which Rourke would weaponize Atlantis's material and spiritual resources.
Milo is incredibly SUPERSTITIOUS, and has been this way for the vast majority of his life. Many of these superstitions were instilled in him by his grandfather Thaddeus, but his firm belief in the concept that breaking a mirror brings bad luck comes directly from personal experience. Shortly before he was due to give a major presentation on Atlantis to the museum board, he accidentally broke a handheld mirror by dropping it on the floor — and the presentation was a failure.
Milo's grandfather, Thaddeus, was a veteran of the American Civil War. He was called to serve in the Union Army due to the Conscription Act of 1863, and subsequently joined the ranks of the men fighting alongside ULYSSES S. GRANT in Vicksburg, Mississippi. Thaddeus fought alongside Grant for the rest of the war, including APPOMATTOX. Milo grew up knowing of his grandfather's military service; however, Thaddeus rarely, if ever, spoke of his experiences on the battlefield. He once met the former General Grant at the age of five years old, but barely remembers it because of how young he was at the time. What he does remember, however, is witnessing firsthand the effects of trauma from war wrought upon his grandfather. As such, Milo has developed a profound fear of war & bloodshed and will strive to keep peace at all costs.
Thaddeus once attempted to take Milo horseback riding in the Appalachian Mountains; however, to say that this did not go well is an understatement. Milo returned home with several broken bones and a lifelong aversion to equestrian activities.
Milo exhibits numerous characteristics that, when considered collectively, would result in a modern day diagnosis of AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER. Milo's characterization in the film suggests that his SPECIAL INTEREST is the lost kingdom of Atlantis, and he "infodumps" to the expedition's crew numerous times throughout their journey. As exhibited by his difficulty to befriend his fellow adventurers, Milo finds social situations challenging; he is a LITERAL thinker who struggles to understand the subtle rules of etiquette that govern group dynamics. SOCIAL CUES, such as Kida's ceaseless flirting, fly right over his head, making him entirely oblivious to Kida's affections. His affliction of TIME BLINDNESS demonstrated in the very first scene of the movie and made possible by POOR TIME MANAGEMENT skills, is also evident of Autism.
Although Milo pretended otherwise — unable to stomach the fact that he was upset over the loss of friendship with a man who so callously put profit over lives — Rourke’s betrayal STUNG. For many years, lingering emotions over Rourke's status as a turncoat haunted Milo, and this tragic fact became his deepest, darkest secret. Not even Kida, who is able to read Milo like an open book, suspects that the emotional damage wrought by Rourke cuts so deeply. Milo values loyalty to friends and family above all else, and the experience with Rourke was the very first time he ever witnessed someone blatantly disregard one of his core values.
When he needs to think, Milo will take a walk on the beach at Long Island Sound. Oftentimes, this endeavor will instead lead to him getting distracted by acquiring seashells to add to his already extensive collection.

Lyle T. Rourke
Tumblr media
Tag: His RP posts will be tagged "muse: lyle rourke" and will include the verse in parentheses.
Full name: Lyle Tiberius Rourke. However, only Milo calls him Lyle. He prefers to be called Rourke by everyone else.
Age: Differs depending on verse/thread, but he always appears 54 (his age in the movie)
Species: Human (also known as Terran)
Gender: Male
Hair color: Gray, with a white streak on either side of his head.
Eye color: Brown
Appearance: He's 6' 4" and full of muscles. He's huge and definitely looks like someone you don't want to mess with. He wears a glowing light blue crystal pendant like everyone else in Atlantis wears. He also has a tattoo of a star (just like Milo's) on his right shoulder.
Sexuality: Gay
Interests/Hobbies: He's actually pretty handy with machines and engineering stuff. He did a ton of mods on his spaceship, the Zeleya Maru, and he enjoys working on/building machines and vehicles (restoring classic cars or creating things that look like they belong in Mad Max: Fury Road. He's also trying his hand at kinetic sculpture.
He's also a closet musician/singer, but doesn't think he's very good (he's wrong, look up anything with James Garner singing). You may catch him singing while he works on a machine if he thinks no one is around.
Bio/Verses:
Canon-ish verse:
His father was a very militaristic man and raised his son in the same way. He was taught to keep his feelings inside and not let them show, and he got better at doing so as he got older, though he struggled in school (leading to teachers often immediately deciding he's an idiot) and often took out his frustration on the more successful students. He was expelled for fighting on more than one occasion, and decided to join the military as a teenager, where he found more success and respect, but still not what he was hoping for: acknowledgement of his efforts and ANY praise for what he did right.
He has been in multiple battles while in the military and was wounded multiple times.
He married once, but it only lasted four months because of his aggressiveness (according to the ex, though a lack of chemistry/connection may also be to blame. Basically, they were never really in love)
As a result of the way he was treated in school and even in the military (everyone deciding he's just a big, muscled moron), he greatly disliked 'academics', though he will admit he had respect for Professor Thaddeus Thatch because Thatch didn't act like a know-it-all and was actually resourceful in a crisis. This was, oddly enough, when he began to think he might be attracted to men.
Upon meeting Milo, Rourke felt a strong urge to protect him and keep him safe. Along the way, through several instances of helping Milo and just watching him be.....Milo, Rourke found himself having feelings for Milo, though he only got up the courage to say something when Milo lay dying in his arms after being fatally injured in the effort to return the Heart of Atlantis.
After Milo was healed by the Heart, he decided to stay in Atlantis to be with Milo, who he learned was in love with him, too.
Heart of Atlantis verse:
This is pretty similar to Canon-ish, but it's based on an idea running through several of my fanfics. In this verse, Milo's grandfather was actually Prince Talos, the younger brother of Atlantis' king. Not much is different from the previous verse (except that Rourke has confessed love for Milo, and Milo revealed his love for Rourke the night before they arrived in Atlantis) until they visit the Heart of Atlantis. Here, Milo is chosen as the Crystal's host instead of Kida. Rourke tries to convince Helga not to go through with her plan, but only succeeds in turning the other team members to his side, and only after Helga's goon kicks his leg where one of his old war wounds is, sending Rourke to the ground, where Helga kicks him in the face before leaving and stranding everyone in Atlantis. The dying king, with Kida's help, explains how the crystal chooses its host and how Milo is in fact Atlantean royal blood, a prince. The king gives his crystal to Rourke, telling him to take Kida with him and return the Heart in order to save Atlantis and Milo, which Rourke does. Milo is returned by the Heart and Rourke tells him about his heritage.
Future-verse:
Currently just with @the-haunted-office but this version of him is kinda fun and could be used in other threads. He's 9022 years old (subject to change depending on plots/threads). While not a genius like Milo, he is competent when it comes to technology, especially the things Milo builds/invents. He knows enough science/tech/engineering to be able to help Milo with something if Milo asks him to. He also speaks fluent Atlantean as well as English, and can read/write it fluently also. He would be considered an expert on Atlantis.......if people knew Atlantis existed. Which they don't.
Space verse (because why not):
Takes place after Canon-ish and Heart of Atlantis verses. Either one can be used as his background. A Star Trek-ish deal that kinda crosses with my Rovarians universe with Rourke as Commander/First Officer of the vessel RSS Ulysses and the rest of the Atlantis cast as his senior crew (Milo as captain). Ulysses is a multipurpose Saturn-class heavy cruiser (think the Enterprise D from Trek) whose design is actually based on the submarine of the same name that started the trip to Atlantis (the space vessel is a lot bigger, though, as it has a lot more lab facilities and crew quarters and such on board). It has the standard warp speed drive, a high speed drive known as quantum slipstream, and the basically instantaneous transwarp drive (transwarp is only used when absolutely necessary, as it uses a lot of fuel and needs to cool down and recharge before it can be used to "jump" again. The further you travel with it, the longer the time before it can be used again. This is why transwarp is reserved only for times when even quantum slipstream isn't fast enough). I can give you more details should we decide to do something in this AU
*Rourke also has his own smaller vessel, the Zeleya Maru, that he gained on some mission after he and an away-team stole it from a gang of pirate-like thieves (who had likely stolen it from elsewhere) that they were escaping. Since then, Rourke took up a position as primary caretaker for the Maru, and often uses it to make himself and away teams appear to be rogues/smugglers/whatever they need to be in order to gather intel/resources from places where affiliation with the Rovarians is not well received (Rourke sometimes uses the alias "Teir Aurelan" when necessary for undercover work.). Maru is normally kept in the hangar bay of the RSS Ulysses when she's not in use.
**The following are the same for all verses**
Personality: He appears very stern and stoic on the outside (Tron fans, think Uprising Tron), a product of his upbringing and time in the military. He's very good at not showing what he's feeling, and at forcing his own feelings aside. Since staying in Atlantis, he's trying to get better about letting himself feel things and remembering it's okay to not be okay. He admits he doesn't really like the person he became before the Atlantis trip and wants to become a better version of himself. It takes some effort on his part to open up and trust people, especially after Helga, as he blames himself for not recognizing her as a threat sooner. He can get fiercely protective of those he cares about. It takes a lot to get under his skin or make him cry, but there are things that will do it.
In a relationship: He's loyal and dependable, but he can seem cold and unfeeling at first, as he tries to assess whether or not someone is a threat to him or others. Once he does open up, though, he's very caring and loving toward his partner, being (sometimes overly) conscious of how he acts and speaks around them. He doesn't want to be the one to hurt them, as he feels it would be a betrayal of their trust in him. He will often take on the role of being the 'strong one' being sort of a rock for his partner, though he will feel for them or with them.
*I mainly ship him with Milo, but as with all my characters, I'm open to anything else if it happens. Please talk to me in DM first, though.
Trauma: He does have some from the battles he was in, but it's not nearly as bad as the Leviathan attack or the battle for the Heart of Atlantis. In addition, he also has childhood trauma, as his military father was also an alcoholic and very abusive toward Lyle and his mother, even when Lyle was as young as three. He also witnessed his father's beating on his mother (she stayed around so she could protect little Lyle).
Other: He and Milo occasionally visit the surface world to keep tabs on it and make sure there are no threats to Atlantis. They use whatever knowledge they gain to make sure Atlantis is able to protect itself in the even someone else finds their way down there. After all, the two of them and their group did. Because of their greatly extended lives, no matter what time they appear in, they do not appear to age at all. These surface trips are great opportunities for them to meet other muses.

Someone has sent pictures of lucci high on catnip to Shanks with the caption of "he isn't coming after anyone anytime soon. High off his mind on the cheapest substance..."
Tumblr media
He'd been staring at the photos for quite some time now, unsure what to make of it. If he didn't know any better, he'd be convinced that his adoptive daughter and her incredibly questionable choice of men --- Thatch excluded --- were the reason why he took to drinking as heavily as he did.
On one hand, it was a good thing Lucci was out, no matter on what. It meant that he couldn't dig his claws further into Rya for a while, and he wouldn't necessarily have to worry about Thaddeus spilling news to him and the entirety of the crew that 'mommy was sleeping with kitty'.
On the other, however, Shanks couldn't help but feel bad for the man. One of the most feared and respected agents Cipher Pol had ever had, only to be taken out of the picture by something as simple as catnip. At least he assumed it was catnip, considering he was staring at photos of an oversized leopard happily snuggled up against an equally oversized cat toy, probably filled with the substance. If he didn't know better, Shanks would assume it was simply somebodys exotic pet.
❝ What'cha starin' at? ❞
The question pulled Shanks out of his thoughts, grey eyes looking up to find Beck leaning against the doorway, cigarette in mouth. The captain was quick to put on a casual facade and fake a smile.
❝ Just some photos. Rya sent them. Of Thaddeus and the twins. The kiddos are growing like weeds. ❞ A quick lie, a simple lie. Nobody had to know what was actually on them.
❝ As kids do, ❞ Beck retorted with a nod. ❝ Hard to believe she's got a kid of her own. Feels like yesterday that she was a kid herself. ❞
Shanks smiled softly. ❝ Mhm, ❞ he hummed in response.
Beck peeled himself away from the doorway. ❝ Came by to tell you we're about to dock. Figured you'd want to get off board immediately. ❞
❝ Thanks, Beck. I'll be outside in a bit. ❞
As soon as Beck left, Shanks took one last look at the photos in front of him before gathering them up and neatly storing them in the back of one of the desk drawers. While Cipher Pol couldn't directly wage an attack on a Yonko, Lucci was as unpredictable and impulsive as it got. He might as well have some leverage over him if worst was to come, or if he ever dared think about hurting Rya or Thaddeus in any way.

It‘s almost 6 hours long, but it was definitely time well spend …
The realization of: It is the only story they tell because it is the only story they know, because it is the only they have ever heard
Is still haunting me
5) Currently reading: I got a collection of poems for Christmas, and I will read that wen I finally have my head screwed on correctly again …

She watched both Thatch and Ace play around with Thaddeus, hearing the childish yelling and the hollering them monkeying around and the occasional holler from Ace as he was gotten good by the father - son team.
"Guararara, I'm surprised you aren't out there with them." She heard Whitebeard chuckle.
"Clearly, I'm aching for a nap. I've had him for a while, and let his dad deal with the energy." she groused and turned as Whitebeard chuckled.
She dozed blissfully off until she got knocked out of her chair by a combination of Resh, and three bratlings using the gentle Fishman as a chariot.
A look of confusion and then heartache lanced through her. She chewed on her cheek before forcing a chuckle and pulling out a water gun. "OI! NOW ITS WAR!" A holler scattered the kids running for their own water guns.

"Yes, I gotta give you all the love while I can before I wander back to Shanks." She chuckled before pulling her brother into her arms and hugging him tight. A soft smile showed before placing his hat back on his head.
"It's the job of an older sister, keeping tabs on her deviant little brother." She teased before looking over to Franky, "Birthday, neh? Does Sanji need help in the kitchen? I helped Thatch sometimes." She tilted her head as she took in his reaction.
"Of course, Thaddeus has been excited to meet up with you all. Missed his uncle something fierce. Now, he wants to take after you and Zoro." A slight exasperation shows in her voice.
Big Sis Visits [Luffy & Kanrya]
@ryathenaughtykitsune asked:
"What are older sisters for~" the smuggler steals Luffys hat if only to ruffle her hand through his hair.
Tumblr media
"Are you gonna do that every time you visit?" Luffy asked Kanrya as he reached out for his trademark hat she just stole off him, still he grinned as she ruffled his hair.
"So, are you here for Franky's birthday?"

“A Genuine Arrowhead”
Off to the right of Milo’s “desk” in the basement of the Smithsonian, we can see a framed arrowhead, mounted on a lanyard; it’s beside Thaddeus’s hat and a photograph of Milo and his grandpa. I like to think it’s the same piece of compressed shale and zinc pyrite that he and his grandfather found on that hike.

Ok but I can't be the only one who REALLY wants to see how the Iceland expedition would go; specifically, of course, in relation to our beloved specialists!
Like, they've presumably never met, and even at the time Atlantis takes place, they can have trouble getting along. What do you think it was like when they'd all first met, with nobody sure of how to handle each others' personalities and habits?
Did they deal with perils like they did on the Atlantis expedition? How did they handle them? When did they first open up to each other about their histories, and how did Audrey (who wasn't even on the Iceland trip!!) end up knowing Mole's deal before Sweet?
All I can imagine is like
Thaddeus trying to moderate an argument that's in-and-out of 4 different languages in the middle of a massive snowstorm because this is Atlantis' version of Iceland:

Thaddeus giggled and hugged his uncle before nodding. "Momma doesn't let me go on her adventures much. If she even thinks there's trouble, she makes me go into the cabin. If she thinks it's gonna be dangerous she leaves me with Grandpa." He grouched thoroughly disappointed. "Tell momma I can be a pirate too!"
Rya had been walking up to Marco to greet him with a hug of her own when she noticed Marco had left out anything to do with Izo. "Oi! Don't disrespect your grandpa like that. Otherwise, he'll hang you by your toenails from the mast." She teased ruffling Thaddeus' hair. "You can terrorize Marco later. Maybe he'll let you bury him in the sand? But I need to chat grown-up to grown-up, yeah?" She asked and tossed him a kendo sword. "Shanks is up for a dance of blades. Go terrorize him." She offered the sulking boy who perked up and ran off to tackle his grandfather.
"Marco, you didn't say anything about Izo." Her voice went low once Thaddeus was out of earshot. "Don't, don't tell me that..." Tears came unbidden. She swiftly wiped them, trying to compose herself. "Marco, tell me. Tell me he's alive damn it. Tell me he's alive last you saw him. Tell me he was alive when you left Wano." She felt her chest squeeze as painfully as it did when Thatch was murdered, when Ace died, when Whitebeard had been cut down. Her eyes widened, looking into his. "Marco. Please." She pleaded.
@ryathenaughtykitsune said:
"Uncle MARCO!!!" An excited little boy yelled as he was spotted on the deck of Red Force. It was soon after he was tackled by a small body. "Didja help Uncle Luffy? How was Wano? How is Uncle Izo? Did you really help take down two Emperors? You're so cool and strong!!" Meanwhile, Rya is currently snickering at the greeting Marco has received and waves her own greeting.
Tumblr media
He'd been preparing to enjoy a well-deserved cat nap when he heard his name. As soon as he turned his head to look and see who the small voice belonged to he was tackled by a small body. While he didn't budge he did grunt playfully, quickly recognizing the woman trailing behind the young boy.
"Thaddeus, that really you? You've gotten so big." He said, a large smile breaking across his face. His eyes lit up as he took in each question, preparing a careful answer for each one as he laughed and wrapped his arms around his late brother's son. Laughing, he ruffled his hair and knelt down so he was closer to eye level.
"Slow down on the questions though or you'll never get an answer," he replied before clearing his through. "I helped Luffy and his friends with the Emperors and it was nice visiting Wano again. It'll be a lot better now that it's no longer under Kaido's control." He paused when asked about Izo, another lost brother but at least he was home. "How about you? What adventures have you been on?

Carnations were sent to Red Force with a drawing of a fox on the front of the card. "Sorry we weren't in time for Valentine's Day. Spent it at Ace's gravestone where I had also left a keepsake from Thatch. Had to spend it with my boys. Thaddeus can't wait to visit. He's got his own present for you~"
Tumblr media
The note and flowers made him both happy and sad at the same time. Remembering the chain reaction that caused both Thatch and Ace's death caused even more pain. Sooner or later he would need to face the man both directly and indirectly responsible for both deaths, but that time wasn't now or anytime soon.
Shanks hoped that Rya found at least some form of solace by spending time at Ace's grave and thinking about Thatch who was taken from her way too soon. He knew that nothing could fill the void of a lost loved one, and they would all be there to offer comfort to both her and Thaddeus when they would come and visit.
