#that and the chaotic anger only younger siblings get >:3

[milla-art-corner]

Finally put together all my rottmnt oc doodles.

Tony’s a yellow-footed tortoise (also known as the Brazilian Giant Tortoise) and he would be around Mikey’s age. He knows about the turtles since he would hear Draxum talk about his early experiments and how he should have turned out were it not for the lack of ooze and DNA.

Tony only gets to meet his brothers in “The Evil League of Mutants” episode. He’s completely lost after Draxum,  Huggin and Muggin disappear without a trace. He decides the best shot he has of finding clues is Big Mama, but without Draxum around she becomes bolder and tries to imprison Tony so he can become the Battle Nexus champion. 

He manages to escape, but passes out in an alley due to his injuries and exhaustion. The boys find him and take him to the lair.

Antonio names himself after Antônio Francisco Lisboa a Brazilian sculptor who continued to sculpt even after the loss of his arms and legs.

How would look cultists (Old faith) Look in your Cotl band au? And bishops? And how they Role change?

I NEED ANSWERS

Heres their full ref sheet!

Ive made a bunch of doodles and art (under the #cotl band au tag) but i'll be planning to make more art of them! Theyre very dear to me..

I'll write some stuff down here about the characters

Keep in mind this au is not related to scott pilgrim 😭😭 just cus i drew lamb in that poster doesnt correlate to the show pls thank you!!

So since its a modern au, Some stuff might not be similar to the original lore in the game such as the bishops injury and what not lol

-

Shamura - multi purpose

They learned to play a lot of instruments at a very young age, and passed their talent to their siblings. Shamura thought of teaching them only as a hobby, not fully knowing well that they'd form a band.

Shamura couldn't finish their education because they needed to be the one providing for their younger siblings. They work as a tailor.

But despite it all Shamura is still very wise and smart.

Shamura is 31.

-

Kallamar - keyboard and backup

kallamar's voice has always been my favourite because of how soft and melodic it sounded in the game. So not only is he a keyboardist, but also a backing vocalist too.

He's in a polyamorous marriage. Two wives and 1 husband. (Kallamar also has a son.)

And because of his family, kallamar couldn't attend in majority of their band practices

He's hard of hearing. Knows sign language.

Kallamar is 27.

-

Heket - bass

Heket can speak, but prefers to appear mute to the audience.

She speaks using sign language. Everyone in the band knows sign lanuage.

Heket is currently in college learning mechanical engineering.

She's bisexual. And currently dating someone. (Not revealing who just yet)

Sozo and Heket are very good friends. Enjoying tea time together and talking a lot of things. Mostly about mushrooms and family.

She's 22.

-

Leshy - drummer

Leshy and yellow cat (named Fian in this au) are dorm roommates and best friends. Some believe they are more than friends.

All his chaotic energy and anger goes to banging on those drums. Shamura thought it was meant to be.

Leshy studies biology. People didnt believe him when he revealed he's one of the top students in his college.

He has a really good memory. Memorized the drums layout immediately after losing his vision.

Hes 20.

-

Narinder - lead guitarist

Dropped out of college to focus on the band. Bad decision really.

Aym and Baal were the only nerdy fans to get close and have a sweet relationship with nari. Like he's their uncle.

Narinder and Lamb used to date when they were 20. They broke up because of miscommunication (and many more reasons). they are in good terms 3 years later.

Lamb had moved on from their relationship, but nari hasnt.

-

Lamb - Lead singer

Lamb can do a death metal scream, dont let that innocent look fool you.

They were recruited in the band by narinder and became the leader.

Ratau adopted Lamb

Lamb's songs are somewhat religious and has a cult vibe. But sometimes they focus about relationships and struggles.

Lamb and Goat are really great best friends. Maybe even more than best friends.

If u guys wanna know more feel free to ask me!

[dragon-pups]

You know I've seen a decent amount of post questioning how the batch ever managed without Echo or Omega. So I've come out of my hibernation to explain from my own experience as a chaotic bitch and an adult being with responsibilities to other living beings. I can go from no thought head empty only bonk to what are you doing? don't eat that! where are your shoes its raining?! It just depends on the group.

So we all now know that Crosshair and Hunter physical fight like all siblings have and still do, hells I just watched a pair of my cousin, my adult cousins, fight to the point of actually scrapping on the ground over something not that important and in two hours they were lounging against each other watching videos and sharing memes. Siblings do this shit. We also know that they also have some verbal only spats like some small ones we've seen between Wrecker and Tech. Also normal.

What is also normal is the transference of responsibility between members of groups. Depending on the members present at the time.

Like in a family group if the parents leave for a time and there is an eldest sibling home then that sibling, depending how they were raised, will most likely increase the responsible behavior to care for the younger, or at least see them alive til the parents come home.

Or in friend groups, yeh know the "mom friend" they one that could be anything from an always assertive person to someone who couldn't speak up for themselves but will absolutely maul a bitch that insults their friends. While they may be the leash holder for one set of friends they could very well be the fuck lit dynamite stick of another, or even of the same set of friends if you add an even more mom friend to the equation. Or the opposite if you take away a mom friend one of the chaos gremlins may take up the mantle of responsibility.

That being said, the batch are brother they fight, but off the top of my head I don't remember in the few interacts before order 66 of Cross and Hunter physically or verbally fighting during a misson, with each other, but we didn't get to see much. Hunter was the responsible one, the leader. It's only once Echo was back in the picture during season 3 that it got physically during a mission. Which makes sense, Echo is Hunter's Corporal he has the rank and the experience to take charge in Hunters place. So Hunter doesn't have to be as tight, and to be fair anger will break anyone out of a responsible headspace.

I'm also extremely certain that Echo being an ARC and being from the 501st means that when Hunter is in charge that he is also a chaos gremlin.

So yeh it makes sense for them to fight with each other especially during this whole debacle. But they're highly trained soldiers they had to be efficient the entirety of their lives, I say they get to be little shits on camera as a treat.

PS I also know that the whole "the batch couldn't manage without Echo" thing is a joke. I just thought it would be a good thought experiment and behavior dissection.

Good Trouble | Frankie x Fem!Reader x Santiago Fic

[2k? And some change] (Might make a Smut Part 2??)

NOT EDITED, We die like the horny sluts we are.

————————————————————————

You, Will and Benny were like three peas in the pod. Having grown up together in the same neighborhood, went to the same church when your family felt religious, even went to the same high school together. You and Benny were around the same age, graduated in the same year a few years after Will did.

You and Will were close, he was the brotherly comfort you always wanted and needed. He looked after you as if you were just another sibling. Always around, always here for you. Do you need a ride somewhere? He’s there. There’s a rat you found in your parents garage? Lock the door, scream into the phone about the small animal and he’s there with a bucket and a shovel.

You confided in him about things even Benny never knew and at times, he did too. You loved each other, a calm and quiet love that you would forever cherish.

You and Benny were an entirely different story. When Will brought out the peace and slowness out of you. Benny brought the fire and chaos. You had it in you always, especially with how strict your parents were growing up. Only allowing you to go to school and back or to Will and Benny’s. Fearful that their only daughter would get corrupted by the world and influenced by others. But what your parents didn’t know was that Benny was simply the amplifier of your chaos. The younger brother of sweet and calm Will had to be just like him right?

Going into high school, that’s when it finally snapped. Too many years of being obedient, too many years of being compliant. You were antsy and full of anger and energy. And Benny, he grew into a 6ft 3 firecracker who always got in trouble at school. One night, you told your parents you were going to a party and it didn’t end well. Involving in you slamming your bedroom door, locking it with a chair pushed against the knob. You sat on your bed legs shaking full of anxiety and frustration. You grab your phone and dial Will’s number. Will who had just got a car in his senior year.

You muttered words of wanting to get away from your parents for a bit, that he couldn’t use the front door. He told you he’d be there in 20. He got in there in 10.

You grabbed a small bag with a few clothes and toiletries having know idea what you were doing. All you knew is that you needed to get out of there.

Benny helped you out your bedroom window and the two of you run out to Will small sedan he had bought with a good hard working at multiple jobs and the leftover amount his dad and had helped pay.

That night was the first time of many were you finally let yourself loose. It was stupid to “runaway” over a party. But to be locked up away and feel like you can hardly breathe, that felt like the last straw.

Your late teens were filled with you and Benny being mischievous and chaotic. So many detentions, missing school, sneaking out. Will tried to intervene like his mom asked but he wanted you and his brother to have fun. For you two to be youthful and enjoy your times together.

But then, Will announced he was going to enlist. Wanting to follow off his dad’s footsteps and fight for his country. His mother didn’t agree with it from the start. You either. Their father was hesitant on his response, telling him it was his decision but to know and understand what he was going to do.

You hated him for it. You know you shouldn’t but it was better than feeling sad for Will to go. He told you Benny would still be here and he’d see the two of you graduate. But you knew, the minute after graduation Benny would take the first opportunity to join him.

Benny always looked up to his brother, always wanted to make him proud. More than his own father. And when graduation turned around, the two of you in royal blue caps and gowns with bright smiles on your face, Benny enlisted a week after.

You got accepted into the only college you applied for. The college you put all your cards on to get you out of your parents house as fast as you could. It was in another state, smack down in the city of Chicago. Ben and their parents helped you move. You went up many stairs, Benny’s hands full of overpriced college items that you wouldn’t need later on in the semester. Every opportunity May got she brought up the opportunity for Ben to just go to college instead of enlisting. But Ben was sure, once he set his mind on something he wouldn't do anything else.

That day was the last time you saw him in a while. You hugged him so tightly, tears staining his white t shirt. He wrapped his arms around your shoulder, he towered over you with his tall frame. From strangers the both of you looked like a couple. And if Ben ever had the courage to tell you, you probably could have been. But you held onto holding him tighter and hearing him whisper that he'd be back soon.

Throughout your years of college, Benny and Will would come home whenever they were able to. Will helped you and your roommate find an apartment to get you out of the college dorm rooms. You were done with doing communal showers. The apartment was okay? Decent enough and cheap enough to live in a good area and close to the school. But you spent most of your time working at the diner to pay for rent. The visits home to see the Miller family was sporadic. Getting letters from your boys writing on slips of paper you would read on your break.

You and Benny started to grow apart. Which wasn’t a surprise. Two of you were peas in a pod. From being close in age and close in general. From talking everyday to almost a few weeks to a month. You didn’t blame him either (you did a little), the military wasn’t a walk in the park.

Then one day, Benny calls you, saying him and Will were going to visit but he would bring a few of his friends. And that’s when you meet Frankie and Santiago.

Frankie. Who had such a quiet yet confident demeanor. A cap on his head, his brown curls peaking through beneath. Your eyes lit up at the sight of him and it couldn’t help but linger for a second before you were introduced to Santi.

Santiago. Who burned with smugness and confidence. Eyes low as he stared down at you with a smirk. His gray shirt emphasizing his toned muscles of his chest and arms. Wit and humor flowing off his tongue the minute he got into the diner.

“This is who you two are always running off too?” He say playfully as the four them sit at the booth bar. The two of you shake hands which turns into a hug as Santiago pulls you into a soft rocking embrace. ( You were happy for the extra blush you applied that morning).

You could feel Frankie’s eyes on the two of you after you released from the hug. And almost as if you could read the man in front of you (who you just met), he could tell too. Your body warmed at the feeling.

You asked them their names to make sure you got them correctly before taking their order. Frankie hesitated a few times, asking what certain dishes were made with what just to spend more time talking to you. You smiled and would tell him your eyes never leaving his.

Frankie was quiet, even with when he introduced himself. Giving you a small nod of his cap and a warm smile. He didn’t speak much but his eyes told you everything.

Santi (that’s what he told you to call him), would not let up on his flirtatious jokes. They were subtle and small. They were just enough for you to know that he was feeling something towards you.

Just enough that Benny and surprisingly Will didn’t catch up on it yet.

It was almost funny how quick you could read off of the two of them from simply your first meeting.

You felt it in your bones that the two of them was going to be trouble. A good trouble that you would want to continue getting into if they let you. You ignored Will’s ever so persistent eyes on you, you knew that he knew something was off but wouldn’t say it unless he was 100% sure and even then he still wouldn’t. That man never missed a beat of anything. Benny and Santiago chatting you up about something that happened back on base that has you chuckling a few times. Frankie keeping to himself, quiet and adding a few comments here and there.

You could see the small touches between Frankie and Santiago since the two of them sat down. They were very small and it was like looking through a magnifying glass to see them. But now it was clear as day to you. How all four of them sat at the diner stools in a row. The two of them are right next to each other. Arms brushing against one another in a way that felt more intimate than accident.

When the four men finished eating you had them the bill and expertly slipping your number into Frankie’s pocket. (He saw you writing the number down 5 minutes ago and let you put it in his locked without you knowing). Knowing if you just handed it to him for all eyes to see that you wouldn’t hear the end of it from Benny.

Benny hated all of your partners. And granted most of the time the people you got with werent that great and had a good amount of red flags. But Benny would always have something to say regardless and you hated it.

So of course he would throw more than just a fit if he saw you handing your number to not one but both of his friends he introduced to you only just that day.

Santiago was a bit more tricky. You couldn’t slip it to him secretly without alerting Benny so you failed to give it to him. The four of them waved goodbye before both Will and Benny gave you a hug and exited out the diner as it was about to close. Only one or two stragglers left in the whole building. You see Frankie and Santi talking amongst themselves outside the diner looking at you as the Miller brothers walked outside to join them.

You get to tidying up since it’s your turn to close, wiping tables and stacking up chairs. When you’re sweeping in the moonlit room is when you see it.

A black wallet on the black and white checkered floor. You pick up to expect the license and your heart stops when you see it’s Santiago’s.

You have no clue if he left here on purpose or on accident but you smile to yourself as you stuff it into your bag before locking up for the night.

Walking back to your apartment, your phone buzzes once your at your front door, keys in hand.

Frankie: Check your apron pocket.

You look at your phone confused at the message. Wondering why that is the first thing he texts you but reach into your pocket all the same. Your hand is met with a small receipt that you knew wasn’t in there before the start of your shift.

You pull your hand out to see a ripped piece of paper with both Santi and Frankie’s phone number on it.

You knew they were going to be trouble.

Good trouble.

Azura’s grandparents’ opinions on the calamity siblings?

Camila:

Likes the calamity siblings since their chaotic nature reminds her of Luz when she was their age. She does approve of Azura x Lily after meeting Lily ("Oh, so this is the Lily girl you were talking about?" "*smugly to Azura* You talk about me?" "*deadpan anger* I complain about you").

Eda:

the siblings' chaotic nature reminds her of herself when she was their age and as such she taught them whatever she could get away with in terms of crime, like pickpocketing. She is a bit annoyed when Maddi asks a bunch of questions (the little one only wants to learn everything she can about these strange new people and world)

Raine:

Just like Eda, Raine sees younger versions of Eda in the siblings (both a good and bad thing in their opinion). They teach Percy a few Bard songs and even gifted him with an instrument. Maddi loves playing with Raine's fox palisman. Lily however Raine is very much a "don't break my granddaughter's heart or you'll answer to me" when it comes to Lily.

Alador:

He hasn't met them too many times but when he did he enjoyed their company, just like his other grandkids. He is very interested in how they were made after hearing about their lineage and that science was used, since he didn't know humans had that type of tech. He and Maddi get into a loop of "what's this?" "*explains*" "neat...what's this?" "*explains*". Lily likes to test out Alador's latest Abomiton experiments and he is surprised by her endurance, tho' he is confused by her since "This can't be the same 'Lily' girl that my granddaughter was complaining about. She hates that 'Lily'".

Odalia:

Azura makes sure that the siblings don't encounter grandma Odalia but they did and she was very interested in that 3 strange humans have items from another world than Earth and the Isles (Lily's sword and shield, Percy's instrument and Maddi's books about Amphibia). She's tried to tell her how to get to this new world so that she can "open up business relations with them"

[ JACOB ELORDI, 27, CIS MAN, HE/HIM ] You should watch your back around here. That’s ETHAN WEAVER right there and the local papers like to call them one of the TRUE BELIEVERS because they’re A DEVOTEE. If that’s not enough reason to be wary, I’ve heard that just because they’re BRAVE, they’re also TEMPERAMENTAL, so watch out if you go around THE DINER, because they’re supposed to work there as a SERVER. Make sure to stay on your guard.

Character Name: Ethan Weaver Nickname (s): n/a Face Claim:  Jacob Elordi Birthday: April 19th Place of birth: Dreadmore Sexuality: Bisexual, Biromantic Zodiac: Aries MBTI:  ESTP Moral Alignment: Chaotic evil Occupation: Devotee Place of work: Blue Moon Subplot affiliation:  True believer 3 positive traits:  Loyal, brave, adaptive. 3 negative traits:  ruthless, cunning, temperamental Languages: English, latin, french Love language:  Physical Contact, acts of service

Biography (optional): 

Life wasn't easy, especially in the world Ethan grew up in. From a young age, he learned that you had to fight for what you wanted, no matter the cost. In the Weaver household, there were strict rules and guidelines. As the second eldest, Ethan put in immense effort to stand out, and perhaps that's when jealousy began to take root within him. Instead of love and care, his relationship with his siblings was marred by disappointment, especially towards his brother, who never seemed to live up to the title of firstborn. Luci he was closest with, even as the baby of the family. He considered her , his one and only best friend.

Maybe that darkness in his heart started with his relentless pursuit of achievements, grades, and studies. Or perhaps it grew stronger when he joined basketball and soccer, winning championships for his high school, only to receive little acknowledgment. No matter how hard he tried, his father's approval seemed perpetually out of reach.

This led to many nights of drinking and partying, a futile attempt to escape the reality that his life wasn't what he had hoped it would be. It seemed that Alan was the precious son destined for greater things. Ethan shouldn't have felt this intense anger and bitterness about his own identity, but it was impossible not to when he was barely considered anything in his father's eyes. His brother received all the attention and support, while Ethan was lucky to get even a fleeting glance his way.

Determined, Ethan pushed himself even harder. When Alan refused to become the heir of the cult and carry on their father's legacy, it felt like both an opportunity and a burden. Why couldn't Alan take on the responsibility? As the eldest, he should have been the leader, the one his siblings looked up to. But instead, Alan ran away, leaving and abandoning the weight of their family's expectations squarely on Ethan's shoulders.

what did that feel like? betrayal? and perhaps it was the very thing he needed, the very thing that could change it all for him. What is his brother's weakness, was Ethan's strength. For once maybe their father will look at him.

fun facts:

Ethan always goes above and beyond to achieve everything his father asks for. He does so without complaint and hopes to be acknowledged.

His relationship with his brother is strained, even more so now because alan refused to continue their father's legacy.

Ethan has grown to dislike alan at this point (I don't want to say hate) but he really can't stand his brother at the moment.

tends to act out now to numb the pain he keeps hidden, a bit of a sadist. Sometimes gets into fights.

Personality

When he was younger he was happy-go-lucky, kind, and extroverted. Ever since his brother received the most attention, he started acting out. Typical act out to get the attention of those he cares for most. He can be cutthroat and to the point. Loyal to the Stellar Society and it's members. Can be dangerous when pushed too far, his anger is something he needs to control, otherwise he can be pretty reckless.

Wanted Connection #1: other people in the stellar society he can get along with. He can sometimes be hard to get through because he's stubborn. But once he trusts you, it's rare. If you betray him, you'll likely end up dead. Wanted Connection #2: a fling, someone he sleeps around to numb the pain. perhaps a drinking buddy, or pass the time with them. Eventually, i could see this person as someone he opens up to when drunk and forgets about it. (could be more, open to discuss) Wanted Connection #3: an enemy, someone he fought with. someone who just can't leave him alone. maybe he broke your muse's heart or argued with them. angst most likely, push/pull dynamic.

Rosalina

SHE IS VERY VERY LAZY

Wants to sleep in but has all these children--

You're bound to see her in her pajamas when you casually see her on the Comet Observatory

Accidentally walking in on you in the bathroom/changing

Author’s note 📝: Repost! Cuz it was still not in the tags, was it a tumblr glitch? Iono

Warnings ⚠️: None much, just profanities I think

(Draken, Mitsuya and Smiley)

Draken :

❥  Mans was just looking for Mikey.

❥ Their little chaotic leader was back at it again with his temper tantrums. Though, in this particular scenario. Mikey had decided that he would be hiding away from their scoldings, as petty as that may sound.

❥ He hid in very small and tight spaces, making it impossible for the over 6 foot man to find him. But because his patience was wearing thin he had now ransacked the whole Sano household.

❥ He was tired and almost ready to explode. He phoned Mitsuya and the others hoping to put an end to this nonsense. Though once he had asked Emma for directions all she pointed to was the bathroom before leaving the house.

❥ Truthfully, he didn’t bother checking that particular room, he had his suspicions but the bathroom was something Mikey wouldn’t hide in. He was most likely to hide in the kitchen.

❥ He also knew the dangers of bathrooms, but this Draken had enough. He had spent a total of 3 hours trying to look for Mikey now. Having Mitsuya and the others search the outer place of their home.

❥ Furious, he slammed open the bathroom. Only to be met with the sight of you wearing only a towel covering your body and wrapped around your head. “Sh*t! I mean shoot! y/n-san I didn’t mean to! I promise! It’s just-” Before he could utter another word he was hit in the head with a half-full shampoo container.

❥ He had already closed and covered his eyes just 0.000001 seconds after he had partially seen you. Though I guess that wasn’t enough. “Get out already!” You shouted, feeling uncomfortable with another presence with you while only having a towel to cover your body.

❥ He obeyed of course, apologies continuing to pour out of his mouth before shouting one last “Sorry!” through the closed door. He sighed in exhaustion and embarrassment before turning around.

❥ Only to hear the sound of a camera flashing.

❥ “Mikey! You intolerant little sh*t you planned this didn’t you!?! WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU, I SWEAR TO TOMAN’S NAME I WILL KILL YOU!” The tall blonde male shouted in anger as he chased around the little vermin that was Mikey.

❥ “Guys!! Look at this! Ken-chi’s a perv HAHA!”

Mitsuya :

❥ Mitsuya had the responsibility of being the oldest child. That meant sacrificing his time for his younger siblings. He knew how big that responsibility was…but he was also a child. And sometimes…he just wanted to be selfish.

❥ His mom, knowing just how much stress she was indirectly putting on her oldest, decided to free him of that burden for a small amount of time and hire a babysitter for the time being.

❥ But she seems to have forgotten about that fact since Mitsuya was now running for his life to get to his sister’s school. “Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t! That Baji made me get detention knowing I have to pick them up Ugh!”

❥ The fear and anxiety that was eating Mitsuya up doubled once he had met Luna’s teacher outside. Telling him a pretty looking girl with their mom’s permission picked them up. Specifically claiming that the mystery girl had showed her of his mother’s handwriting to allow her to pick them up.

❥ But his mother never told him anything. That made him believe his little sisters had gotten kidnapped, and it was all his fault for being late.

❥ When I tell you Mitsuya never ran faster in his life to get to his house that day. Mans rammed his home like a bull, sighing in relief once he saw little Luna on the couch watching her cartoons. “Oh thank god- Where’s mana?” he immediately questioned.

❥ “In the bathroom.” “Oh okay…Wait-” He also knew the dangers of having a small body…and as far as he knew, Mana always needed help in the bathroom.

❥ He dashed once more into their bathroom. Flinging the door open “MANA-” He started before looking at the scene with his jaw dropped. A few more seconds he snapped to his senses and covered his eyes shut. “FUC- I MEAN FUDGE! I am so sorry!” Scrambling to the door only to trip and fall. He felt himself getting more and more embarrassed.

❥ He had just walked in to see his little sister in the tub taking a bath…and you a girl he had seen before shirtless but with a bra on. Though he couldn’t tell where he knew you from.

❥ “I’m so sorry” he spoke calmly once more after a few seconds. His back was leaning on the door, closing it fully. Before it opened, he once again accidentally fell backwards.

❥ “Woah there! Sorry, I didn’t know you were leaning on the door…I’m also sorry for the sight hehe, I was afraid of getting my shirt wet”  You catched him with one hand. Your other hand scratching your head in a sheepish way.

❥ Mitsuya was sure he had just embarrassed himself once more ten fold, and in front of a pretty girl too…how unlucky. Maybe Takemitchy’s bad luck had rubbed off him.

❥ “No! It’s my fault! Sorry!” The two teenagers couldn’t seem to stop apologizing to one another. “But who…?” “Ah! I’m from next door! Your mom paid me to babysit your sisters.”

Smiley :

❥ Baji, their close friend had initiated a sleep over at his house. And of course, having had a stressful week along with his brother, who was he to refuse?

❥ All of the main members of Toman including Takemitchy crashed in the Baji household for the night. Staying up all night and playing video games or whatnot. They all fell asleep at an unreasonable time.

❥ Having Baji as their host meant almost not sleeping at all, so they should have expected that. But nonetheless, they enjoyed each and every second of their time together. Good thing Baji had soundproof walls otherwise you would’ve been banging on their door screaming at them to shut up.

❥ Smiley awoke to snickers and the sound of arguing. He opened his eyes only to see a marker right in front of him held by a laughing Chifuyu who rolled his eyes at Baji.

❥ ‘oh no….’ oh no indeed, another one he should’ve expected was the pranks he was going to be caught up in if he ever lowered his guard down.

❥ The members saw him wake up and now stepped away. Focusing on their new target. His brother, who was clinging to his blanket.

❥ “Looking good there d*ckless” Yup they drew a d*ck on his forehead. He scoffed in slight irritation, standing up and stretching before he felt small slaps on his back. “Go wash up, Mrs. Baji’s cookin’ us breakfast. Don’t let her see the d*ck on your forehead” Draken snickered mockingly.

❥ Nahoya left the room without another word, pretending he didn’t see the same drawing being done on his brother’s forehead. He reached the 5th door on the left that Baji had instructed him to use as the bathroom. Though, it must’ve been because he was still in a daze, he didn’t see the “Occupied” sign on it and opened the door without a care.

❥ You were in the middle of changing your shirt when it happened. Surprised, you accidentally screamed which provoked Smiley to do the same, So there was now two people screaming their heads off.

❥ “What the-!?” Baji immediately scrambled to the source after hearing your screams. He caught sight of Nahoya muttering small apologies with one of his hands covering his eyes and the other outstretched in front of him. A stuterry and a blushing mess he was.

❥ Though Baji thought otherwise. “Oi! The hell you doing punk!? That’s my sister yer’ trynna’ violate!” Baji grabbed Smiley by his collar. The door then closed with a bang. “You wanna get f*cked up or something!?”

❥ Nahoya, who felt like he committed a crime didn’t bother avoiding Baji’s hands and shouts. Though the other boys managed to separate them.

❥ Let this be a lesson to always stay cautious in the Baji household. He thought you were really pretty though! He had a slight crush on you, but ya didn’t hear that from me hehe~

[avionvadion]

Am I still playing around with plot things? Yes. Are the designs pretty much finalized? Also yes. Gods forbid I write a fic that isn’t isekai genre with a frick ton of angst and an equally convoluted story.

What I have so far: Iliandra (brunette, brown eyes) is a descendant of the Hero of Time. She has two younger twin brothers, Sarian (blond, green eyes) and Medkah (dirty blond, blue eyes). Their family has guarded the Ocarina of Time for generations, but discovered at a young age that Iliandra could actually play the Ocarina and make use of its powers.

This leads to them moving from Hateno Village (The father being a merchant, and Iliandra traveling with occasionally- which is how she met the Great Fairy Contera near Kakariko and how she had gotten a fairy of her own, Retah) and moving to Lurelin Village. (Que Great Fairy no longer getting offerings) They use her ability to save the village from the tropical storms that would often beset them, among other things, and become twisted by greed and power.

When Iliandra refuses to play, as the Ocarina is a sacred object and shouldn’t be used so selfishly, her parents lash out. Eventually, they nearly kill her. Iliandra runs away then, but barely makes it into Bubinga Forest with the ocarina when she is killed- and Retah sacrifices it’s life to revive her. (You use fairies in-game to revive, so…)

Hylia intervenes then. (In my headcanon, after Skyward Sword’s Zelda dies from old age, Hylia returns to goddess-hood) She brings forth the dying soul of Iliana, and merges it with the reviving body of Iliandra. Two parallel beings that had been separate, yet will now finally be whole. Iliana awakens confused, memories muddled with Iliandra’s own, and is nearly killed almost immediately after reviving.

She’s saved by a Sheikah weapons merchant, Maiju- a young woman who grew up in Gerudo. Iliana is then taken to Hateno Village, where she’s welcomed by a warm elderly couple and is taught how to use the bow. A few months later, and a week after a certain someone awakens from his slumber, she goes hunting and gets lost… and meets the Wild Hero, Link.

She eventually learns to play songs through strangers and from goddess statues, as Iliandra’s memories slowly enter her mind.

Eventually, Iliana and Link wind up in Lurelin and Iliana discovers that after Iliandra left, the parents took their anger out on her younger twin brothers. Link and Iliana then take Sarian and Medkah to Zora’s Domain where they’ll be safest, and Prince Sidon is more than happy to help. :3

Iliana is paired with Sidon, by the way. She has a chaotic sibling dynamic with Link. Lowkey the necklace Sidon gave her is a betrothal necklace, with sapphires that will protect her from the cold but also help her breathe underwater as she can’t swim, but she a dumb dumb and doesn’t realize he proposed to her and she accepted.

SO BASICALLY

Link is still asleep and will remain so for a few more months, the Champions are all dead, and Hylia’s only remaining descendant is trapped within the castle keeping Ganon at bay after everyone failed a century ago. For all intents and purposes, Hyrule is screwed. So Hylia is taking a leap of faith.

Demise cursed Link and Zelda’s soul/descendants, and now the current incarnations are stuck after a failed attempt. It’s time to add another player to the game- one who knows certain things and has a connection. Iliana and Iliandra. Together, they can help guide Link and hopefully bring Hyrule back into a peaceful era.

Why? Because Hylia is an omnipotent goddess and I’m trash for a fish prince, so 🤣

[seoafin]

Thinking back on HI where Gojo was the one to first suggest they call of the merger before they even met Riko, which leads me to understand that he didn't have an adequate nor proper childhood at all, hence why he identified and sympathized with Riko by indulding her in fun stuff with Geto so she can enjoy her youth and this was all in 3 days total! Please she was like a little sister to him that he never actually had, just remembering his face full of grief and regret at the end of the HI, i actually even wonder what happened to her body.

And Gojo's whole idea of youth must be preserved at all costs is definitely tied to his childhood or lack of one, to him failing Riko and Geto ultimately because he specifically states that no matter who it is, they should enjoy their young years!

Which brings me to rip!mc and how she was evidently attached to the little girl, a girl that was not much younger than her around 2-3 years with whom she viewed as a family immediately, and it shows rip!mc's loneliness in a way probably the same way as Gojo's, she loved that little girl too much despite knowing her in such a short amount of time and her then teasing Gojo that she's growing on him was so precious.

Then there's family au where they both specifically choose to name their first born girl Riko! I love how Gojo knew that rip!mc was already thinking about that and he and her both decided on kanjis, now Riko is reborn and Gojo is the happiest man alive once more.

(On a side note here, what do you think about their dynamic in HI Morgan?) Other than that, have a lovely day/night and take care of yourself! <3

i think about what happened to riko's body at least once a day :(

if you're referring to gojo and riko's dynamic I really enjoyed it! like you, my first to go impression was chaotic siblings LOL i felt we really got to see a part of who gojo was with someone other than geto. all that talk about leaving riko behind if she was a nuisance only to take her to okinawa like...he is such a tsundere c'mon 😭

of course we can't forget the part where he apologizes to her for not being able to muster anger on her behalf during the toji fight. it often gets overshadowed by gojo's 'throughout heaven and earth' speech but i think that gojo's apology was also an extremely pivotal part of gojo's enlightenment while also being a potential look into the person he could become (detached from his humanity) all in all, riko was such an integral character to his hs character arc and it makes me sad when i see her importance brushed off in favor of geto when both are important to shaping who gojo is in the current manga!

Cosmo’s TMNT Masterpost

(Rise, 2003, 2012, and others)

Here’s where you can find pretty much everything I’ve ever made for the TMNT fandom! Fanfics here[haven’t gotten the courage to post fanart here yet], hope you guys enjoy my work. Reblogs are appreciated!

Fanfics

1. Finding my way home(and moving forward)

Out of sheer curiosity, Leonardo and Donatello looked up, and there it was.

A portal.

Had the Universe really taken pity on them? Had it really heard his desperate prayers for one more chance?

It was not like the ones they had seen before, it was an irregular circle made up of several shades of blue, completely different from the perfect and symmetrical pink triangles of the Kraang.

Leonardo and Donatello looked into each other's eyes for a few moments, "Should we go in?" Donatello asked, almost shouting, drawing the attention of the others, who quickly turned to the portal and to see each other, then the two brothers in question.

"It's our best bet, and our only chance," replied Leonardo.

Or rather, with the 2012 kids' home gone, they end up in the Rise verse after a strange portal shows up. Therapy is needed, and start the slow process of healing from their trauma.

(Rise/2012, Work in Progress, written with @keeryd​ )

2. Strawberry Cookies:

"Mikey here was just about to tell me what we could do to cheer Raph up while he's sick," Donnie says. "Mikey continue?"

Now that Mikey had both of his older brothers attention, he grins. "I was thinking we make strawberry cookies!" He does his jazz hands as he says this and is met with looks of something that he can only put as disapproval. "What?"

"You do know that everytime that we have tried to make it-" Donnie starts.

"We mess it up and Raph has to come in and save our butts from burning the cookies?" Leo finishes, "What would be different this time?"

Mikey huffs, "We are doing this so we can cheer him up and to prove that we can do something on our own!" he says, "That's what got Raph sick in the first place!"

Or rather, Raph gets sick after helping his brothers recover from the poisoned pizza puffs. Mikey, Donnie, and Leo take a shot at baking cookies for Raph while trying not to burn their kitchen down.

(One shot, complete)

 3. Chicken Fried Rice:

“I only poured in half a pot of rice,” Donnie complained.

Mikey stared at him, really stared at him before he spoke. “You do realize that rice expands when cooked right?” he said, “You do realize that?”

Donnie was silent, looking away from Mikey.

“Donnie!”

Donnie makes chicken fried rice. Mikey watches over. Shenanigans and brotherly fluff ensue.

one shot in which Donnie is in the kitchen, cooking rice and Mikey, Mikey is positive he should have gotten Donnies braincell. 

(One shot, complete)

 4. Tea Time with Hortense and Patty: 

"Sooo," Raph starts. She's always been weird with awkward silences. "Are these grandma kinning hours?"

"Grandma hours!" Mikey exclaims excitedly. "Grandma time!!!"

"Ah, if it isn't our favorite girl and her little brother!" Hortense tilts her head over in their direction slightly. "Are you going to join us? We were just about done arguing," she says.

---

Today is Tea Time. Two old ladies have a tea party, one of them forgets to bring the food, and they are joined by Mikey and Raph. A good time is still had.

(One Shot, Complete)

5. One of those Days

When Donnie woke up this morning, he woke up with the familiar thrum of anger and irritation running through his body with more intensity than normal. Rubbing the crust out of the corners of his sleep-addled eyes, he jerkily grabbed his phone and turned off the alarm. It's one of Those Days, Donnie noted. Those Days where Donnie isn't capable of handling Mikey's over-enthusiastic optimism or Leon's chaotic trickster nature. His safest bet is to hang out with Raph, his calm and mellow demeanor always helped calm down before Donnie went on a rage fest and say anything he couldn't take back.

Or, Donnie and Raph help each other out, balance each other, and make things a little less difficult.

(One Shot, Complete) 

 6. Gift Hunting: 

“It’s Leo. Tiny Leo,” the voice answers. “I need your help with something.”

“What is it?”

“I can’t say until you say yes first,” Leo says. “It’s really important though.”

Angelo is silent, weighing his options. He could say no, he really could-

“Please, Angelo, you’re the only one who can really help me with this,” Leo pleads.

Rather, Angelo and Leonardo go out in the streets of New York to help the blue banded turtle find gifts for his brothers' sixteenth mutation day. Bonding and fluff ensues.

(One Shot, Complete)

 7. Aftermath:

“Raphie bear?” Mikey called out, gently tapping Raph, with relief washing him when Raph turned his head to face him. “What’s the matter teddy bear?”

“Th-thi-this doesn’t feel real.” Raph stuttered out, his voice cracking as a sob broke through. “I’m not really here. Neither are you and everyone else. I’m still alone with Draxum and his minions. No one’s coming to save me because I was stupid enough to get captured and no one wants such a worthless turtle like me.”

In which Raph was kidnapped and tortured by Baron Draxum and his family has to deal with the aftermath of it.

(One Shot, Complete)

 8. To Be the Eldest

Donnie, the second youngest in his family, wishes he was the eldest for once. Then one night, Donnie gets his wish granted and now he was three small turtles in his care.

Donnie adjusts to being the eldest, comes to some realizations, and makes a promise to his (now) younger brothers.

(Work In Progress)

 9. Wanted: Snaggletooth 

Dr. Noel bent down on his knees in front of Raph, a manic smile that showed too many teeth coming about on his face speaking of pain and suffering that has yet to come. He stretched out his hand towards Raph’s face, placing a thumb under his mouth, pressing into his snaggletooth. “Beautiful. Just as I expected,” he crooned, pulling out a syringe and injecting it into Raph’s neck, pushing the contents of the syringe into his system.

Raph’s eyes fluttered as he started losing consciousness, watching through hooded eyes as Dr. Noel's smile grew even wider, with his last thought right as darkness consumed him being that he hoped his family would find him before it was too late.

Post S2 Finale, Dr. Noel remembers Raphael, his snaggletooth, and manages to find and capture the red masked turtle. It doesn't end well for Raphael.

(Work In Progress)

 10. Dimensional Differences:

They bow. Not like one of those pretentious bows like she would do at Yokai parties and not like the ones she would do with her brothers when they hosted tea parties. They bowed deeply, heads stopping at her stomach, one hand closing around their fists. This spoke of respect and honor.

And that unnerved her a little bit. Why are they bowing so deeply?

“Thank you,” they said in unison. It’s unnerving to April and she felt the uneasiness coming from her brothers too.

“Why are you thanking me?” She said finally, voice sounding foreign to her.

“You saved my life?” Baby Leo said slowly, voice tinged with confusion. “That was an honorable thing to do?”

April blinked, “It shouldn’t be considered honorable for doing what any big sister would do,” she said. “That’s not honor, that’s just being a good older sibling.”

In which April, Sunita, Casey, and the turtles end up in the 2012 verse after a mishap with Leo's ōdachi and stay with the 2012 turtles until they can go home. They find out a lot of things that don't quite jive with them. Some things are the same, some things are different and they're not quite sure how to handle those differences.

(Rise/2012, Work In Progress)

 11. Mind Meld Part Deux:

“Oh thank Galileo that you all are back to normal!”

“What do you mean we’re back to normal?” Raph questioned, pulling back from the hug. Mikey and Leo also pulled back to stare at Donnie. “We’ve-we’ve always been like this?”

Donnie went quiet. He shouldn’t have said that.

“Donnie, what did you do?”

The brothers found out about Donnie’s Mental Intelligence Reprogrammulator. Arguments are had, words are said, words that tear a rift between him and his family, and it’s up to Donnie to earn his brothers’ forgiveness. The only thing is, will he get it?

(Work In Progress)

 12. I'm a little kid and so are you(don't you go and grow up before I do):

The 2003 turtles somehow, someway ended up in the Rise verse, with Rise Splinter and his turtle tots, and stay with them while the boys try to figure out their way home. 2003 Raphael got attached to his tiny counterpart the moment he laid eyes on the tot. (Raph centric)

Thanks @hogwartsmystory for letting us use this template!

THE MAGE

1st Wand: Red oak, dragon heartstring, flexible, 13″

2st Wand: Cypress, phoenix feather, unyielding flexibility, 14″

"Cypress wands are associated with nobility. The great medieval wandmaker, Geraint Ollivander, wrote that he was always honoured to match a cypress wand, for he knew he was meeting a witch or wizard who would die a heroic death. Fortunately, in these less blood-thirsty times, the possessors of cypress wands are rarely called upon to lay down their lives, though doubtless many of them would do so if required. Wands of cypress find their soul mates among the brave, the bold and the self-sacrificing: those who are unafraid to confront the shadows in their own and others’ natures.

-

Animagus: Black Hawk

⦁ Night’s one of the favorite thing is being in sky. No matter the weather, day or night, you can see Night in the sky or daydreaming while looking at clouds/stars. They spend little too much time as a hawk. Night’s hawk form is a regular Black Hawk with blue eyes.

-

Misc Magical Abilities: Legilimens, Occlumens

⦁ Being Legilimens in Rhea family is not something unexpected. Night's father Matthew realized his younger child is Legilimens when they were seven years old. But he never believed they can use it perfectly. Night didnt used Legilimency properly until their fifth year. İn two years, Night was able to use this ability without wand. Even though it was enough for them, Snape warned Night about not stopping training, and wanted them to learn Occlumency too. Yakup was already Occlumens and very skilled Legilimens, and with a threat of their also Legilimens uncle, Night didnt questioned at all. With their brother's help, Night mastered these two magical ability in years.

-

Boggart Form: Night had 3 different Boggart in their life

⦁ Yakup (Jacob), with dark mark on his arm and looking at Night madly.

⦁ Rowan, saying everything would be better if it was Night who died.

⦁ Theirself, covered with blood and smiling madly, with Dark Mark.

-

⦁ Amortentia: (What do they smell like?) Deep forest, rain, ocean, cold air, jasmine, black tea

-

⦁ Patronus: Hawk, Hebridean Black-Dragon (After Rowan’s death)

Dragon patronus; One of the most powerful and formidable creatures of the magical world, dragons are ambitious and dominant. With the ability to breathe fire, they quickly assert themselves, garnering both fear and respect from those around them. They are unafraid to take risks and prefer to live by their own set of rules. They are quick to lead and do not back down from a challenge. Dragons are strong in their convictions and will stand for what they believe is right. Those with a dragon for a Patronus are sure to be fierce fighters, and the Dementors better be ready for a challenge.

Quidditch: Chaser-Beater

⦁ Night started to play Quidditch in their second year as a Chaser. While they wasnt the best chaser, Night was enough to help Slytherin to win the Cup. They meet Gryfindor Chaser-Vixen during practise and whole year, they werent be able to be better chaser than her. The rivalry between her and Night made the dark haired kid realize maybe being chaser wasnt really something for them. in third year, thanks to McNully, they started to play as a beater, and find theirself being more succesfull than ever. After that, Vixen and Night's rivalry become more friendly. (Beginning of Nixen Au)

⦁ Their favorite practise partners are Charlie, Samantha (@samshogwarts ), Vixen (@vixenmcmahenhphm ) Andre, Orion and Rath.

⦁ Whenever Night was angry or stressed, and even flying didnt make them calm, they took the beaters bat and destroy some dummies. İn fourth year, Night injured some second year student. They were angry about Merula, and just wanted hurt something. So they went for dummies in Training Ground. Night wasnt looking actually where they was hitting, there was just the feeling of fullness . A sharp scream bring them to reality. İt was the first time they hurt someone out of anger, and unfortunatelly wasnt the last.

-

Favourite Professors: 

Madam Hoach: She is strong and powerfull woman and her tough behavior makes Night adore her. And one quick note, Night is really afraid of making her mad. During their school life, Night interacted with her so often thanks to their Quidditch love.

McGonnagal: Even if she is not Night's head of house, Night find her much more easier to talk than other proffesors. They feel deeply guilty about the times they had to lie to her. McGonnagal and Talbott's close relationship makes Night feel even more warm about her.

Flitwick: He is someone who Night doesnt have any problem to talk. They enjoy his classes, and little chats they share. Night often share the teas their granpa send them from Turkey, and Flitwick always appreciate.

Least Favourite Professors: 

Snape: No one need a reason to dislike him, but Night actually doesnt hate him.

-

RELATIONSHIPS

Father: Matthew Rhea

Second son of Alexander and Alycia Rhea. Known for his dicipline he got from his father, and his talent in Legilimency. İn Rhea family, the ones worth is same as their power in this magical ability. Being better than his older brother, made Matthew the golden child of family. And as you can imagine it seperated the brothers. Matthew was loyal follower of Dark Lord, a feared Death Eater. He believed wizarding world will be better with Voldemort, and never regretted for following him. Even if it cost his life.

He was never the father figure to Night. They doesnt remember him smiling to them, even for once. On Night's fifth birthday, Matthew decided to send them to Turkey, to Seline's family. For three years, Night stayed away from their home, with their grandfather and only comes back in summers when Yakup is back from Hogwarts. İn 1981 (When Night was eight years old) Matthew died in war, and Seline let Night to come back.

-

Mother: Seline Rhea

Youngest in five sibling, fourth daughter of İbrahim and Saadet Yavuz. Seline lost her mother when she was two, so she has no memory of Saadet. İbrahim never treat any of his child differently and loved them all same, but Seline never been close to him, or most of her siblings. Even when she was a child, she was quiet, and keeping her distance from everyone. Books were her best and only friends. So when Seline meet with Matthew, leaving her home and country wasnt actually hard decision to made. Seline loved Matthew with her whole heart. He wasnt trying to change her, and that was what she was asking for, for her whole life. Young woman knows, that he was interested in her being Legilimens, but she didnt care. If she was powerfull enough for him to want her as his wife, she thinks its something she should be proud of.

She fit perfectly in Rhea's. Her new house was nothing like Yavuz's warm and loud house, just like how she is also nothing like. Seline couldnt be more proud, when she and Matthew discovered Jacob is also Legilimens. She was excited for her second child too, but when she hold her newborn, she saw the look on Matthew eyes. The disapointment. He didnt like his child to have bright blue hair. At first, Seline didnt think it will be problem, its only color of hair after all. But real problem was, Night being nothing like a Rhea. They were energetic, loud child. Running in house, climbing on whatever they finds, jumping on every water pot they saw. Seline knows they were exactly like her own siblings, nieces. Night wasnt nothing like Jacob (Seline's Turkish accent turned his name into Yakup).

On the fifth birthday that Night turned five, she didnt even say anything when Matthew told her to send Night to Turkey, next to her father.

After Matthew died, Yakup was her everything. And Night was.. Just someone from her past, her own family, something she wanted to leave her behind but couldnt. Unfortunatelly, not so long after Matthew death, Yakup get expelled from Hogwarts and went missing. To find him, Seline did something she thought she wont be ever doing it. She begged Matthew's brother Jonathan for help. And her answer was only a smile. A cold smile, belongs to someone who is happy to have all the control on family now

Night's three year, when they were alone with their mother was, rough. Everyday was about Yakup, about finding him. To have Seline's attention, Night do everything they can do to act like Yakup, look like Yakup. İt was impossible for them, but in their mind it was their only goal. Being someone their mother will love.

The first time Seline looked lovingly at them, was when Night was about to get in Hogwarts Express. When they promised her to find Yakup.

-

Sibling: Jacob (Yakup) Rhea

Yakup and Night werent able to spend much time together, when they were child. Thanks to their ten year difference between their ages, they only saw each other in summers. İn their cold house, Yakup was the only one who loved Night deeply, other than their nany Goni. He was well aware of how his Pip wasnt like his other cousins, other Rhea's, and  that was enough reason for him to love them. Their smile and loud excited voice was the thing warms the house in Yakup's eyes. 

When he get expelled, he knows all of his burdens became Night's. He regretted deeply, but there was nothing he can do from a portrait. He waited for his "sister" to rescue him, waited so patiently and dreamed the day they reunited. But when Night finally came, it wasnt like how he imagined. 

They both wanted to have back the ones they remember from seven years ago. But the truth is, both were so different now, and they doesnt want to admit it. Their old beautiful relationship was gone now, and wont be same for so long. After Hogwarts, they fight a lot. Argued a lot, couldnt agree on same things. Until Night took the mission that will change their life forever.

When Night first runned away, right after they killed an auror in front of him, Yakup lived the hardest weeks in his life. He saw in their eyes himself, how he was when he first get expelled. He already knew Night changed so much, when Rowan died. And couldnt help but feel like all of it was his fault. Now his Pip was so lost inside, so lost that couldnt able to see whats wrong or right. So he searched for Night with everything he has. 

Of course he didnt know it was all part of their plan. Thankfully soon enough, Night came back to him to explain everything. That they will be a spy in Death Eaters, and needs him to be their Secret Keeper. But also they needed him to promise. Promise to see the mission more important than their life. (Will be contunied in Future AU)

After war, their relationship was better than ever, and they finally have the sibling they both missed so much.

-

Grandfather (Mother's Dad): İbrahim Yavuz

Lovely Turkish old man who looked after his five children alone, after his wife died. He loved all of his kids all same, but his kids are all different. Four daughter and one son, Seline was the youngest one, and the coldest one to İbrahim.

One day when Night and their nany Goni showed up on his door, he was more suprised than he was happy. Living with tiny energetic child  who cant understand his own language for three years was actually hard for İbrahim. But thanks to Goni who can talk to both languages, Night started to understand and talk Turkish in short time. Well enough to have an accent actually. With their cousins, aunts and uncle here, Night actually had a big and  lovely home there. Their name was hard to pronounce in Turkish, so İbrahim gave them another name. He never liked Night's names meaning, and choose the name that means entirelly opposite of 'Night'. "Nur". It means " The light of the God" and İbrahim thinks it fits his grandchildren more.

As much as Night loved the Yavuz household and Turkey, they missed their mother, brother,home. Ibrahim wasnt sure if Seline would take Night back to England, if Matthew didnt died. He was hoping Seline would come back now, with her son. But Seline refused, and instead of coming back to Turkey, she took Night back.

Night wrote letters to him so often, and in every change they visit Turkey. İbrahim was parent to them, more than their own family and they couldnt be more grateful to have him as grandfather.

-

Uncle: Jonathan Rhea

First son of Alexander and Alycia Rhea. He is only two years older than Matthew. He married with Elyssa Black, and had two child. Cora Rhea, a Legilimens and  two years older than Jacob; and Cordell Rhea in same age with Night. İn 1981, Jonathan lost his daughter and his wife.

Losing half of his own family shaked him deeply, but on the other hand, now Matthew is also gone,and it was good enough to make him forget about his pain. All the responsibilty of Rhea's is now Jonathan's. He is the only one who is head of family now. Or at least, its what he think.

Little he know Seline will be the biggest impediment to him. She wont let him to take the big house (Where Matthew and her staying with their childs, because Matthew was the head of family) She refused him, and told him Yakup will be the one who will take Matthew's place. She knows how Jonathan hate her and Yakup. He wouldnt let Seline stay in family or even England. So she fight with Jonathan with all her power. Until Yakup disappears.

After that, Seline lost her hopes, she even begged him to help her find her son.She promised to leave England if he helps. But Jonathan didnt care, he took everything he wanted after all. The house, being the important one. He was no longer the one who is forgotten in his little brothers shadow. He is the one who is in control now. He even took Night from Seline. Night lived in his house from their fourth year to seventh year.

When Night started Hogwarts, Jonathan told his son to stop them. From finding Yakup. Because he cant risk his nephew to come back, and took everything he earned.  Unfortunatelly, his fears will come true and Yakup will come back. Jonathan will hate him with all his being and this hate will be dangerous when Voldemort returns.

Jonathan will be the one, who offer Night a place in Death Eaters when Night run away from their first crime. He will say he is proud of them for choosing the right way and realizing Yakup is the traitor one, not him. And will say Matthew would be also proud of them.

During war time, Jonathan will be the biggest enemy of Night, even if he wont know about it.

Love Interest: 

Talight- Talbott Winger 

Night and him meet in third year thanks to Penny. Night didnt even know his name,and Talbott was staying away from the cursed vault kid to avoid trouble. It actually took them long time to be close friends. But once they became friends, they found theirselves a way to escape from other. At first, they see each other as a someone who can understand other ones feelings. Talbott learned Night isnt always as happy as they seems or they isnt just a selfish troublemaker. And Night learned Talbott isnt someone who has stone cold heart and doesnt care about others. They so often fly together in night, sit in silent in owlery, read their own books in libary,and sometimes running/flying around just for fun. Talbott learned to like some harmless chaos, and Night learned to be not afraid of silence. İn fourth year, Night realized they have deeper feelings for him, but couldnt risk to lose his friendship. They were happy enough to have him as friend. But Tulip reading their secret notebook out loud didnt help them to hide their feelings. The notebook was written in Turkish so no one could understand, but Night completely forget about how Tulip actually knows Turkish. Even if it happened out of Night's control, it didnt end like how Night feared. 

As much as they both loved each other, being in relationship is something these two doesnt know well. İn fifth year, they dealed with some tiny (!) jealousy. Night meets with Jae, and being in detention whole year help them become a close friend in short time. Being busy with Rakepick and her tasks, Night was quiet busy and Jae was the only one they can see without needing help. (Remember how Rowan said they were only comes to their friend to get help?) Our little bird didnt like to feel in this way. But this feeling wasnt just keeping "him" awake in nights. It was eating Night from inside too. They were aware of how they couldnt see Talbott so often, and actually missing  their piecefull times together. They couldnt help but notice how he got close with Badeea. Not that they thinks Talbott shouldnt have friends. Actually they were happy about how these two Ravenclaw sharing their own worlds to each other. Night just, felt unsure if they are good enough for Talbott, in a way Badeea is more than enough. Night and Badeea were so different, and Night  couldnt help but compare theirself with her. Our couple didnt actually broke up, but i can say they had some walls between their hearts now, the ones they both didnt wanted but thought other one needs it. They goes to Summer Festival, with different people. Wanna guess who?? Of course Badeea and Jae. They both watch each other laugh with someone else. But in the end of the year, when Night and others came back from Buried Vault, Talbott was the one who hold them while they were crying.

Next two year, they both supported each other. (Yes im just skipping all the things because, there is things im excited to write and draw and dont wanna spoil it here). But before graduation, Night wanted to break up. To focus on theirselves. Night knows how Talbott worked hard to be auror, and they doesnt want him to worry about them while having so many things to worry about already. Talbott didnt like the idea of course, refused at first. He blamed them, get angry, didnt talked to them for days. But then, he understood why Night saying these. To accept it, he wanted them to promise him something. That they will come back to him. No matter as what, as a lover, as a friend, as a someone who still have warmt in their heart for him.

Well, in a way, Night keep their promise. (Will be continued in Future AU)

-

Nelix- Felix Rosier 

İn Hogwarts, their relationship was mostly about Felix trying to keep Night out of trouble and fail every time. He became Dragonologist when he graduated, and Night send him maybe too many letters to ask about life in Romania. (Charlie also aprecciated his letters too, as you can imagine.) Being Dragonologist was Night's dream job, even if they doesnt think they will be doing it in future. So after graduation, just to see Charlie, dragons and Romania (definitelly not to see Felix, please) they travelled there a lot.

Seeing each other again, with other Death Eaters was not what they both hoped. Night knew Felix would be there. But for him, seeing Night there was shocking. He was disappointed, but thought about maybe Night was forced by their family, just like him. (Will be continued in Future AU)

After all the rough time they managed to survive, they both needed to heal from what they saw, what they did. And being far away from England was just what they needed.

They promised Marshall to take Yakup back, but before he can come back Marshall passed away (İn beginning of fifth year). After him, Night didnt have any pet.

Closest MC Friends: Let me know if i can put your mc's name here!

Miscellaneous:

⦁ With Felix words, Night is “too chaotic and energetic like a Gryfindor”. You can see them running around anytime -mostly after Jae, Vixen or Tonks- or laughing with tears on their face. Not to mention they have a loud voice and you will hear when they laugh everytime. (Chiara admit it later that she was afraid of telling her secret to Night just because of this. But dont worry, they can be very secretive.) Night’s face always wears their emotions, that means you can see a lot of weird and funny expressions.

⦁ Chocolate is the key of happy Night. Whenever they have a chocolate frog, you can see a bright smile on their face. Bad Quidditch match? They will eat chocolate angrily on Pitch. Bad exam? Chocolate again with a face that shows you how their brain is burned. Snape’s favorite punishment for Night? Honeydukes Ban. Night will probably just curl up on grass in Training Grounds and wait for the day pass. Also a cup of tea could make Night very happy too. Thanks to their grandpa, they know how to make tea in every way, so they would be so happy if you join them for tea.

⦁ Because of that bright attitude of them, Night wasnt taken seriously at first. When some older Slytherins talked about Jacob in common room, everyone in room learned about how Night doesnt hold back when they are angry. İn years, they did a lot of things out of anger that they will regret later.

⦁ Night is a person who cant tell easily their negative feeling.When they got sad, they got quiet. Mostly Night just hide their sadness behind their smile and hope that it will be gone.

Every Rose Has Its Thorns Chapter 4

After months of planning and organizing, I am done with this chapter. I am on a roll today

TW: Homicide, mentions of blood

Summary: This is the aftermath of what happened to Tabby at the end of chapter 3 when she killed those parents. Tabby struggles to come to terms with what she did, her emotions, and what she has done in her past. Will she overcome her inner demons and rise above to make peace and amends? Or will she continue to make mistakes that will send her spiraling down the rabbit hole of despair?

After a while, Tabby just stopped and stood up. She calmed down enough to scratch her ears as they were rashy from anger. She just stood there in shock, unblinking. She couldn’t believe what she’s done. She had blood splatters everywhere on her. At least with her jacket, they blended in. If she just zipped up, she could hide her white shirt, clean her glasses and pass off the bloodstains as something else on her pants and shoes.

Masky and Hoodie had grabbed the kids while Tabby was stabbing their father. The little boy was shrieking and struggling against Hoodie, who was being forceful and was in the process of tying up his hands. Masky took a gentler approach with the little girl. He had covered her eyes so she didn't see the scene, and he was in the process of leading her outside. The girl didn't struggle, probably out of shock and fear. Masky was talking to her quietly. Toby heard his assurances that they weren't going to hurt them and that he wouldn't tie her wrists if she just cooperated. In Toby's opinion, the little girl was acting in a much more intelligent fashion. He held the shy-looking baby in his arms. She was pretty cute and had settled down. She was looking up at him, reaching for his goggles curiously. He saw the baby had her name embroidered on her little onesie. The baby's name was Stephanie. Toby glanced around for clues about the kids’ names, and his eyes fell on a crayon drawing of the family. Two stick figures are called Mommy and Daddy. A slightly taller one called Ty. That must be the boy—a stick figure called "Me" and then a circle that was probably the baby. Audrey, age 4, had signed the little kid’s drawing. The little girl probably drew when she was younger. He then remembered that he needed to find the files.

Tabby just still stood there in shock. Her wide eyes were unblinking, and you could tell she wasn't there mentally anymore.

Toby went and tapped her shoulder while holding the baby in one arm.

"Tabby...".

Tabby wobbled her head over at him.

"Yes?..." she stated slowly and emptily. Her eyes were vacant, showing that she retreated further back into her head.

"Let me find the files, and we'll go, okay?" Toby stated calmly. The baby made a slight bubbling noise in his arms.

"Okay..." she stated in the same slow empty voice.

Toby soon found the files and took them. They weren't hidden very well, which made his blood boil. She followed him around, but she still kept that vacant look. She blinked now and then, but it was still unsettling to those who knew Tabby well. Toby was sure she'd be okay later. He just wanted to get this mission done first. It should be fast. Masky was probably contacting their boss so that he could make a temporary portal for them. Usually, Tabby would say something to ease the situation or complain, but this made her deathly quiet. Almost like a broken quiet. She just stared blankly straight ahead.

Toby went outside. It was pretty dark out now. Hoodie was still holding onto Ty, who looked very uncomfortable in his binds. Audrey was sitting by a tree and shaking, almost as if she knew she couldn't escape. Masky was seated nearby. They looked as though they were waiting for the portal to open. It was pretty dark out now. Toby knew that he would snap her out of it later; he tapped her shoulder to get her attention.

"Tabby...It's time to go, okay? Are you alright?"

Tabby nodded her head slowly in acknowledgment that it was time to go.

She wobbled her head towards him again, looking at him with unblinking eyes.

"....fine..." She started slowly in that same empty voice. She continued to walk towards the rest of the group.

Masky had the girl by the hand. Hoodie had tied up the boy and draped him over his shoulder. Toby held the baby and the files. Tabby stayed silent. She was strangely obedient, which was out of character for her. She waited for the next move. Masky turned and began to lead them back through the woods. Hoodie was glad that Tabby was quiet now. Toby was keeping the baby entertained. Tabby continued to move through the woods on autopilot. She just stared ahead, blinking occasionally. She wondered what the kids thought of her or what they'll think of her later on once they processed the whole situation. Once again, her stepdad’s words came back to her.

"All you ever do is ruin people's lives. All you ever do is hurt those around you. You're a monster and bad influence everyone is better off without you being around".

Those were constant thoughts that ran through the chaotic warfare that was her head. On top of the main idea of " how does it feel to know that he was right about you all along?"

She just let the ideas overcome her as she had that blank look of defeat to her.

Toby walked near her. They had to walk for a long while until they could get to the boss. The kids were quiet, thankfully. The baby in his arms made small noises up at him and Tabby.

Tabby was slowly coming to; at least she was more aware of her surroundings and blinking more. She didn't have that blank unsettling look to her anymore. But it was evident that she looked and felt like shit. She still had a glimpse of defeat and was more of a broken quiet.

Toby could tell she wasn't doing well. He figured she probably remembered something. He wondered if there was a way to cheer her up. She looked over at Toby and gave him a small reassuring smile, but it was fake. She then looked away since she's a horrible liar. She would try to explain it to him later.

Toby understood. The kids were surprisingly quiet. Masky was even being kind to the little girl and just talking about where they were going.

Tabby was a broken kind of quiet, but she was looking around at her surroundings more and more. She looked over at Masky being nice to the girl. Although he did try to kill her twice, and she wouldn't forget that. He sort of reminded her of a loose guiding father figure that she didn't have. She then looked at Hoodie, who was in front of them with the boy. However, she hated him and also tried to kill her twice. She sighed. She knew that they were never going to see eye to eye, and there were probably more arguments to come that she didn't know if she would win or not.

However new she was in this line of work, she understood how a team is supposed to work. Whether she liked it or not, she was part of a new team now. And their team can't work if they're constantly arguing and going at each other's throats always. Sooner or later, they were going to have to reach some sort of compromise. She just didn't know precisely how to go about that. She looked back at Toby with the baby in his arms. It was a pretty sight. She sincerely hopes that the baby would be alright. In a way, she was kind of reminded of how a tiny family would be with Toby as the father and her as the mother and the baby as their kid. She shook her head and looked away and scolded herself for having such thoughts about a happy long-term future. She took this second chance for one thing and one thing and one thing only. To get her revenge and avenge her friends. Nothing more and nothing less. As far as she was concerned, they were all just a means to an end, and she didn't care how much she had to kill to achieve her goal, and no one was going to get in her way.

Still...

The walk was short but felt much longer. They seemed to have passed through some sort of barrier. The proxies were okay, but the human children began coughing, shaking, and slightly seizing. The baby started to wail. Tabby looked dazed and confused as they passed through the barrier but was quickly able to snap out of it somewhat. Tim had to pick up the girl. Soon they recovered from this affliction, however, and they approached a large mansion. It was beautiful but had an eerie aura. Tabby felt terrible for the kids and had to restrain herself from helping them having older siblings and mother instincts herself. But she couldn't afford to show any signs of vulnerability. She was still in shock but not as bad as before. She put her hood up, kept her head down and her hands in her pockets.

The two older men ignored her, but Toby scanned her body language to see if she needed help. Tabby was grateful that she wasn't called out on her shit. She knew that she would have to explain herself later when they were more alone, and everything calmed down. Masky was talking to the girl he was holding in a comforting way. Toby was a little unnerved by it, as that was how he spoke to the children that he would kill. One thing Toby liked about Masky was that he always went a little softer on the kids. But he would still kill them. Hoodie simply told the boy who was whimpering to shut up. The mansion loomed as they approached. Someone was on the porch. He recognized the maid garb that his boss used and identified the figure as a maid. One of the dishonored proxies is working their way back into the boss' favor. Tabby saw the person cleaning furiously. She made the logical conclusion that the person was a maid of some sort. She prayed silently that the kids would be alright for the most part and that she did a good enough job so she wouldn't talk too much. Her anxiety was back up, and she was fidgeting with the bottom of her shirt again.

As soon as they entered the mansion, the two older proxies stopped and froze. Almost as if they had entered a trance. When they snapped out of it, they turned to Tabby and Toby.

"Follow us." They said in unison.

Tabby nodded and looked down. She was still quiet, but she mostly snapped out of her shock. Toby was used to this type of stuff. It just meant the boss had been talking to them. They got like that. Masky and Hoodie led Tabby and Toby down a large marble hallway. Many portraits were hung on the walls of different people in different periods. There were a lot of them. Toby stared. This was essentially Slenderman's wall of fame, of proxies who served him exceptionally well. Masky had told him that the being would paint these himself. The hallway was long and filled with these portraits. Toby knew Masky was up there. He wanted to be up there, too, someday.

Tabby nodded and looked down. She was still quiet, but she mostly snapped out of her shock. Tabby looked up at the wall of portraits. They were impressively well done. This was some artistic skill that not even Autumn could achieve. They made her take her mind off of her anxiety for a few brief minutes. Soon they came to a large, heavy wooden door. Masky had to set the child down to open it. He paused, seeming to listen before he turned to Hoodie.

"The boss would like to speak with you in private, but for now, stay out here with the children."

Hoodie nodded, his emotions undetectable during his mask. He set the boy down rather roughly on the marble floors and ordered the girl to sit next to him, which she did fearfully. Hoodie took the baby from Toby, then moved to let the pair follow Masky into the room. Tabby kept her neutral expression. There was no room for emotions or vulnerability here. She straightened out her shirt. She held her head up to maintain eye contact and stood up straight as she walked resolutely into the room. She just hoped that she wouldn't get talked to too much as she didn't trust how her voice would sound. Toby walked with her into the office. Tabby entered cautiously as she did so when entering any room. It was dark and spacious. A fire roared in a fireplace. Pictures of various scenes from history and nature were on the walls, painted as well.

A strange, ancient-looking black tubular object was bolted to the wall in the corner. A low hum came from it, but it was not the hum of machinery. It was some sinister machination. She noticed the machinery and snuck a few curious glances as curiosity was one of her downfalls. She strained her ears to listen to the hum as she was used to dark, sinister energy since she went to Rosewood. Masky didn't look at it, and Toby felt too uncomfortable to do so. The boss was sitting in an armchair behind a desk, his hands folded in plain view. His gaze seemed to pierce the group as they entered. She quickly disciplined herself to focus her gaze back to the situation at hand and kneeling. Toby and Masky kneeled too. Tabby gave yet another silent prayer that the kids would be alright and that she would be too.

"I see you all have completed your mission." The being spoke. His voice echoed through all of their ears.

Masky still knelt.

"Yes, Operator. The children are in the hallway like you asked." He spoke.

The Slenderman hummed softly.

"Have Hoodie bring in the baby when you all leave. The two groups that have agreed to take the human children are in the mansion. You should have no issues sensing them, Masky. And Toby, you have the files?"

Toby nodded and held them out to his boss, who took them.

"Excellent."

The being hummed. He turned to Tabby.

"And you made sure the humans were dead?".

Tabby looked up when she was spoken to, but she said swift.

"Yes, sir, they were most certainly dead," as you could tell by her dirtied bandaged hand that was covered in dirt and dried blood. On top of some on her cheek and splattered across her red plaid jacket and white shirt.

She looked back down. The being nodded slowly.

"Very well. You all may go. Bring the two older children to their groups and send Hoodie in with the baby." He waved his tentacles to dismiss them.

"Yes, sir"

She quickly walked out of the room with Masky and Toby trailing behind. Masky sent Hoodie into the room with the baby and untied the boy to walk on his own. He helped the two kids up. Tabby looked everywhere but the kids. She knew that she would have cast them a pitying look, and there was no place for that here. To her, it's best if they learned now and fast that they would have to save themselves from surviving. She had to push down her parental/older sibling instincts.

She looked down with a guilty look. Wasn't that what she was teaching her little brother? When she left him. That to survive, you have to save yourself? Tabby justified it as a form of tough love. And she had to take care of herself first to provide for him. One of the reasons she took this second chance was to provide Adam the best life he could have when he gets old enough to do so. She would gladly kill without a second thought if that meant avenging her friends and providing and keep her little brother safe. Hell, she'll kill anyone else that gets in her way. She wasn't going to be around forever; he would have to learn how to fend for himself eventually, and she was a firm believer that it's best to teach them young while they're still able to learn quickly.

Still, she couldn't help but feel guilty for what she did.

Toby didn’t want to look at the kids because he didn't know if they were crying or not. He hated crying. Especially kid crying. They soon got to another set of doors, which Tim opened. Three proxies were lounging on a sofa and laughing, but they turned when they saw the door open.

"Oh, hey, Masky! You brought the boy?" The leader of the group asked.

Masky nodded and said with a chipper note in his voice.

"Sure did! Here he is."

He gently nudged the boy to the group. His little sister let out a whimper, which Toby quickly shushed. Tabby continued to look down and say nothing.

"Pay no mind to the kids, pay no mind to the kids, pay no mind to the kids,” she chanted over and over again. She hoped that this would be over soon and hoped that she would continue to be ignored and not have too much social interaction. The boy was welcomed into the group with open arms. Usually, new groupmates would get new proxy names, basically as a sort of initiation. It was the group giving them a new identity. Already the new group began discussing new names for the kid. One of the members, a woman, moved so he could sit next to her.

"Hey, little buddy- no no, don't cry, don't cry, we're not going to hurt you. We're your new team. We're going to train you."

Masky took this as his cue to leave and lead the others out of the room. He closed the door behind them all. The little girl was trembling again, so Masky picked her up.

Tabby looked back at the group with a look of nostalgia and sadness. They reminded her of when she was first accepted into her friend group at Rosewood. They welcomed her and took her for what she was with open arms. She never had that before then. The group that would become her family. The group that she became the leader of. The group that taught her what love, happiness, home, understanding, and acceptance were. She looked away and ran to catch up with the other two. Now it was just her. The sole survivor. She knew that she would never get all of that again unless she made a home for herself, and she knew damn well that she didn't belong in this new group or this world. Well, she didn't belong anywhere, really but especially not here. She was lucky enough to have all of that once. She firmly believes that it will never happen again. They soon walked through the silent hallway to another room, where an all-female group was waiting. Masky set the child down in front of them. One of them, a pretty woman with long red hair, scooped the little girl up gently. The girl looked at the woman with soft eyes. She reminded the child of her mother. One of the team members scoffed at the softness.

"Aurelia, the child needs to begin her training instantly if she is to ever be of use-"

"Shut up, Laura." The woman snapped at the short girl with the blonde pixie cut.

"Not tonight. We can start training tomorrow. Right now, she needs rest and comfort. For now, she can have it."

Tabby looked at the red-haired woman like she was about to cry. She reminded her of an older, more adult version of Autumn if she were to have lived that long. Tabby remembered crying and being comforted by Autumn when she first met her outside of Rosewoods gates. Laura reminded her of herself when a newcomer was welcomed into her group. Autumn ensured that she would take it easy on the new kid before drilling them about surviving Rosewood. She looked down to control her tears. Thank god she was able to hold them back. Aurelia wrapped her arms around the young girl and held her to her chest.

"We're going to take you to your new home, okay, sweetheart? You're going to be okay. We'll take care of you. Come on; you have your room."

Masky moved so the group could leave. The little girl clung to Aurelia like she was a lifesaver. Tabby looked back at the group and then at Masky to study him a little. She was a leader once, and her group did well. Maybe once she got herself established and a home, perhaps she'll have a group of her own again, and maybe she could go back to the way she once was; she shook her head and looked away and chastised herself for thinking such hopeful thoughts. She took this life for one main reason to fulfill her promises. That was her only mission, and she'll kill whomever she has to to get one step closer to her end goal. After that, she was planning on dying. She'll have someone else kill her. She didn't plan on being here for long. She believed that this was a one-way mission and that there was no promising future for her. Good things don't happen to people like her.

Masky watched the other group leave. He sighed, then readjusted his mask.

"Well, now that that's done, are you all hungry? Want something to eat or something? We have a lot of walking to do later, so we might as well fuel up while we can."

They also needed to wait for Hoodie anyways before they could meet up with EJ. The boss always had little "chats" with Hoodie alone, and he wouldn't even tell Masky what they were about. Tabby shook her head no. She didn't trust herself to keep any food down for right now.

"I'm not hungry, right, but I could use another coffee" she rubbed her face. You could tell that she was dead exhausted.

Masky shrugged. That worked for him.

"Great. I'll tell EJ to meet us at the cafe nearby." He stated. They had sandwiches there that the rest of them could eat.

Tabby nodded

"Cool," she stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to say or do next. She avoided eye contact with everyone else.

Masky stepped out to contact EJ. They were still waiting for Hoodie to return. Toby glanced at Tabby. They were alone together for a bit.

"Hey...Tabby..."

Tabby snapped her head up, and when she did, her neck made a loud crack. She winced at the sudden pain that faded away quickly.

"Yeah?"

Toby smiled gently at her.

"Uh...just wanted to make sure you have no questions or anything."

"No. I'm good." She stated quickly, giving him a reassuring smile.

She paused for a minute.

"Do...you have any questions for me?"

"Oh...er, maybe." Toby smiled slightly. "Mainly just...how are you feeling?"

"I feel fine, I guess. Mainly tired, but that's due to insomnia and narcolepsy. Anything else?"

"No, no, that's it," Toby said with a bit of a smile.

Tabby raised an eyebrow.

"You sure?"

Toby paused for a minute. No, he wasn’t sure. He had so many questions for her, such as what the hell happened back there? She just went all ballistic and then just blacked out. Not to mention her shocked state was just creepy and unsettling as fuck. He also took notice of her trying to restrain herself from helping the kids. Did she naturally have that instinct? Did she have any younger siblings that made her like that? Or for all he knows, maybe her own child that she left behind? He knew that Tabby was lying when she said that she was fine. She wasn’t fine; obviously, something happened to her in her past that made her so bothered about this. However, he knew that this wasn’t the best place or time to confront her about all of that. He would have to wait until the time was right.

"Yeah, I'm sure," Toby said.

Masky soon came back into the room, and they were quick, joined by Hoodie. Tabby became quiet and looked back down, avoiding eye contact with any of them. Masky nodded.

"It's time to go. We'll meet EJ at the coffee shop." He stated calmly.

Hoodie was silent. Toby wondered if he was okay. Tabby nodded and followed the rest. She kept her head down, hands in her pocket, and prayed that others wouldn't speak to her. Masky and Hoodie had no intention of talking to her. Hoodie was still a little annoyed with her. Masky didn't want to start anything. Tabby kept to herself. God, she was so tired. Usually, she'd take this week and go into a coma. But this was one of those times where she couldn't just sleep the week away. But she had a backup plan for that. Normally she'd just run on coffee and monster energy, and then she'd fall asleep wherever when she had the free time. All that caffeine isn't good for her anxiety or paranoia, but it keeps her awake long enough to take care of what she needs to for the day, and it beats collapsing where you are and being vulnerable. The walk to the coffee shop was short and uneventful. It was right next to a portal into the human world. Toby was a little excited. They entered the shop and got accosted by the smell of roasted coffee beans and warm air. It was pleasant. The girl behind the bar was a monster/human hybrid. She just had that look about her. Still. Very nice-looking. Masky looked at Toby and chuckled. He knew that Toby used to have a thing for her. Maybe it still did. Tabby looked at the girl, then at Masky, then at Toby. Whatever it was about, she didn't like it. Then again, she doesn't like anybody or anything. She waited to be seated. Toby was smiling at the girl.

"Hey, Leona!" He said to the girl behind the counter. She was beautiful. Short, with long curly brown hair and a peachy complexion. One eye was bright blue. The other side of her face was warped, along with that side of her body. That all added just a bit of charm to her.

"Hiya Tobes! Your usual caramel chocolate mocha?" Leona asked.

He nodded. Masky ordered an espresso and a sandwich. Hoodie got a black coffee and a croissant egg sandwich. Tabby ordered a regular coffee with lots of cream and sugar. Almost enough to make it diabetic. Leona smiled at her.

"Gotcha!" She chirped.

She turned to help make the coffee. Her coworker is a shy-looking girl with a dark complexion and vines growing on her legs and arms. She had twists in her hair, which she braided flowers into.

"Nalia, can you help me with the last two?" It wasn't busy at all.

Tabby kept her bandaged hand hidden in her sleeve to avoid blatant staring and people asking questions. She looked down and kept quiet. It was probably best that she'd only speak when spoken to. She would have gotten something to eat, but she didn't trust that she would keep anything down. Right now, she just needed something to stay awake. Leona handed Toby his coffee with a bright smile. Toby flushed a little. Nalia chuckled to herself and gave Tabby her coffee.

"There you are."

"Thank you," she said curtly but gave a small smile.

Her mom always taught her to be nice to the servers. Tabby sipped on her coffee. A serene smile appeared as she closed her eyes for a brief minute.

Toby was still chatting with Leona. Masky soon got his drink and was sitting it. Hoodie was waiting for his still. Tabby kept quiet, getting lost in her coffee. Tabby really couldn't complain much. If she miraculously saw one of her old friends again, she would do the same thing too. After all, Toby had just met her three days ago. He has had an entire life without her and she without him. In reality, neither of them was special to each other. Still, she didn’t understand or know why or what she was feeling. The best way she could explain it was that she didn’t like seeing him talking to other girls, it made her angry, and her stomach hurt for some unknown reason. She just brushed it off and tried to ignore it. Toby and Leona chatted for a while before Toby went to go sit down by Tabby. Hoodie got his coffee and was sipping it. Tim had finished his and was talking with the other barista. Tabby finished her coffee and was slightly upset that it was gone as she couldn't have any more caffeine since that would send her into an anxiety attack, and if that were left unchecked, it would send her into a paranoid episode.

Soon Hoodie and Masky joined them at the table. They could stay here for a bit before meeting EJ and doing the long walk to get to where they needed to be. Tabby was resting her cheek in her good hand as she struggled to keep awake despite the coffee. But she was determined not to fall asleep as she didn't want to be vulnerable as she was surrounded by three men who could potentially kill her at any minute. Hoodie and Masky talked amongst themselves. Toby glanced at Tabby.

"You good?".

"Well, aside from losing everything I knew in one fell swoop, losing my hand, spending my entire life trying to prove my stepdad that he was wrong only to prove him right today and the fact that It’s narcolepsy week for me and I can't sleep. Yeah, I'm good" she gave a small smile. She figured that she owed him at least a little bit of honesty for right now until they were more alone, and then she would try to explain everything.

"Well, you should get some time to sleep for a few days because we need to get the paperwork done and new identities for that school," Toby stated.

"Normally, I'd go into a coma for the week and then go back to my insomniac self. Or if I were at Rosewood, I'd just sleep my way through classes."

"Well, I mean, you can definitely sleep in the classes. We don't need to pass or anything. Just blend in.".

Tabby gave him a smirk.

"I was a straight-A student at Rosewood. I think I'm too smart for their classes. Benefits of being a teacher’s pet."

"Well, this is a different school, so let's see if you can keep that up." Toby joked a little.

Tabby snorted.

"Please compared to Rosewood where the material was harder, and you got punished for anything lower than a C. On top of my stepdad drilling the lessons into me until I learned them and got punished at where I used to live if I didn't. Greengrove will be a child’s play".

"Well, we'll see." Toby chuckled.

Masky soon turned to them.

"We have to go now."

Tabby nodded and got up and waited for the rest. The rest of them got up and began to head to the door. Toby waved at Leona as they left. Once they met up with EJ in the human realm, they could drive to the house. Tabby followed them, keeping quiet. They walked outside into the chilly air. Toby was quiet. Masky was eating his sandwich. Tabby grumbled and pulled her jacket together tighter around her. The walk, thankfully, was going to be a short one. EJ was waiting for them in the human world with a van. The portal was very close. Tabby kept her head down and prayed that everyone would keep ignoring her. Tabby's anxiety was slightly raised as four strangers surrounded her could potentially kill her at any time, so it was an unfair fight of 4 against 1. EJ paid no mind to Tabby as the group arrived. To him, she wasn't all that beneficial yet. She would probably only work with him once anyways. Masky greeted EJ like an old friend as they loaded up into the car.Tabby took the passenger seat to her left. She buckled up and pulled her knees up to her chest and rested her cheek on her knees as she looked out the window. She wrapped her arms around her legs. EJ couldn't drive for, well, obvious reasons. Masky took his seat at the wheel, and Brian, Toby, and EJ took their places in the backseat. Toby couldn't technically drive, so he wasn't allowed to drive in human territory. Tabby's anxiety was picking up. To her, it was four against 1. You could tell that she was silently running scenarios through her head and coming up with the best escape plans for each. Just in case shit hit the fan. She was fidgeting with the bottom of her jacket to keep her from spiraling into an anxiety attack. Or worse, into a paranoia episode which they didn't need to see. Masky didn't notice and didn't even pay her any attention. He switched on the radio and turned it up. It was an upbeat country song. Hoodie scoffed from the back. Ugh. Toby yawned in the back. EJ was sorting things in a pack.

Tabby gave a slight smile and a stifled giggled. They honestly reminded her of herself and Autumn when they would both play the music they didn't like but put up with for each other. She also knew the song too. It was an older upbeat song. It brought back a memory of one summer's night when she was younger, driving around with her grandfather after a long day of fishing and her falling asleep in the backseat. Both memories and the slightly familiar situation brought a sense of comfort to her. She stopped fidgeting less. Masky jokingly crooned along to part of the song, making Hoodie groan. EJ smiled to himself. It was a pretty peaceful drive as well. Masky was a decent driver. Usually. He was speeding slightly but not much. The road was straight and long as well as nearly empty. Tabby finally broke character at Masky jokingly crooning along, and Hoodie groaning at him and gave out a laugh. It was a weird sound as she hasn't done it in a long time. She cleared her throat and quickly returned to being her dark, angsty, stoic self, almost embarrassed. Masky smiled, seeing that she found that amusing. He turned to Hoodie.

"She's on my side, see?"

"God, Tim, you are so childish sometimes."

"Kinda have to be with this job. Don't want to be a mopey grouch like you, Brian."

"Shut up." Hoodie retorted.

Toby chuckled at the conversation. Tabby was a little bit more relaxed. She still didn't trust any of them. But her anxiety was less, and she was a little more smiley after that. They honestly reminded her of her and her friends. That thought was comforting. For a brief moment, she forgot all about her past, rosewood, Horatio, that awful fight she got into, her friends being dead. She almost forgot that her life was turned upside down and the fact that she was a killer now and that she was in a car full of them. She gave a quick look to Masky. Maybe toby was right; perhaps she was a little short to judge and deserved a second chance. Maybe they all did. But then reality came and hit her like a ton of bricks. Her smile vanished, and she scolded herself for letting down her guard. She can't get too comfortable with them. They are killers; they could quickly kill her right here and now if they wanted to. They shouldn't be trusted. Besides, she didn't plan on being here for long. This was only temporary until she got what she wanted. She couldn't forget about her motivation and keeping her eye on the prize. Her past is all she has left. She remembered that she didn't have friends anymore. They're all dead, and these guys would never be them. But you could tell that she was more hurt than anything., Masky reminded her of what her stepdad used to be before he left and then came back and then turned into what he is now. It just made her think about what could have been and knowing that she can never get that back. She went back to being her regular hurt self.

The men didn't seem to see her change in mood. Masky glanced in the rearview mirror.

"You excited to be in a school setting again?" He asked the grouchy proxy.

"Oh god, don't tell me I'm supposed to be going back too. I do not pass for some kid-"

"Nooo, we're not. Uh..." Masky looked like he was debating what he was about to say.

"Our aliases are technically married, so we get to pretend like we're Toby and Tabby's parents."

"Oooh, my FUCKING god. Was that Jeff's idea? I'm going to knock his fucking teeth in."

"No, it was BEN's."

"That piece of shit," Hoodie muttered under his breath.

Toby laughed. "I mean...that's kind of what you both are-"

"Shut the fuck up, Rodgers." Hoodie snapped.

Masky stopped any potential fights from erupting by turning to look at the two.

"Knock it off, you guys. Seriously."

Tabby muttered under her breath,

"Y'all not my parents don't tell me what to do."

Masky overheard her and busted out laughing. Hoodie just looked annoyed and looked out the window. Toby chuckled as well. EJ was ignoring the commotion and sorting some things in a bag. He was so quiet it would be easy to forget he was in there.

Tabby looked at Masky defensively and narrowed her eyes. She sat more in a defensive, protective position.

"What's so funny?"

She looked almost offended.

"You," Masky said. He continued driving. "You sound juuust like Hoodie does. He's rubbing off on you."

Hoodie and Tabby looked at each other pissed off and horrified, “WE DON’T SOUND ALIKE!”

"Theeen, stop acting like each other," Masky said, utterly unbothered by them acting like a child.

He continued driving. Toby sighed and picked up a magazine to read. EJ finally looked up at the rest of them.

“Jesus, I haven’t been in a public school in eight years,” said Tabby to herself in realization

“Still, it would be nice to be back in familiar territory again,” she said quietly more to herself.

Tabby got a little more excited as they reached town. Tabby bolted up, sitting straight and looking out the window, happy to be back in familiar territory. She looked at all the shops and houses at restaurants. They even passed by her old workplace at the This or That restaurant. It wasn't a bad town. Yes, there were bad parts, but the only places she hated were Rosewood prep and her old apartment. And now that she wasn't under her stepdad’s thumb. She didn't have to sneak out to do usual teenage shit, and she could go out whenever she wanted to. The thought of all that newfound freedom was making her buzz with excitement. The only thing that sucked was that she didn't have anyone to share that with.

The town was an array of stuff. Up north in the town of Holy Ann was more of a rural area and where the only bus stop was. It was where Tabby's grandparents lived up on the hill in their birch-colored house. Tabby used to spend her summers up there when her mom wanted a break from her. We have the main Town of Maplehood Creek. Uptown was where the poor and bad areas were; Tabby lived in their gray and yellow apartment complex. Downtown was where the businesses were, rich people and Rosewood Prep was. The best place to trick r treating was downtown. And in the back roads was more of a quiet place to live, and that's where her uncle mark lived. Tabby knows the town inside out. She can use the backroads and the underground catacombs under the town and Rosewood Prep. She thought it would be nice to have someone to share that knowledge with.

The town was relatively quiet. Other cars were passing by, and you could hear the sound of children playing and people talking. It was a brisk November afternoon, but Tabby didn't mind the cold air. The streets varied with houses and apartments and neat little shops and restaurants. Very few of the trees still had their leaves on. Honestly, it would be a good and quiet town to settle down and live in if it wasn't for the slums and Rosewood Prep and the odd killings and disappearances that happened in town.

They passed Maplehood Creek cemetery. Tabby's mood drastically changed from happy and excited to quiet and sad and dead on the inside. She looked away, not wanting to remember that the only form of family was buried there. And the fact that near the cemetery there was a sign saying ROSEWOOD PREPARATORY SCHOOL MASSACRE SECTION TO YOUR LEFT AND CIRCLED IN THE ENCLOSURE did not help at all.

Hoodie was looking over a map from the back. Masky was looking for the house that they had attained. It should have been close to the school they were infiltrating. Hoodie was giving him directions from the back. EJ just sat still in deep thought. Eventually, they pulled up to a cozy blue house. Masky could see the Operator symbol posted in the window. That was their signal. He pulled into the driveway. It was a lovely house and comfortable. Had four rooms, but Masky and Hoodie could share. EJ had already claimed the room in the basement, so the others chose the upstairs rooms.

Tabby gave out a small whistle.

"This is so much nicer than my old apartment. It’s an actual house. I never lived in an actual house before. Then again, we're in the middle-class part of Maplehood, so that's why."

Masky chuckled.

"Yeah, we had some strings pulled, so we got a place that had multiple rooms and whatnot. Seeing as SOME of us-" He glanced in the rearview mirror at EJ. "need our space every waking moment of the day."

Tabby nodded

“I relate. I like being alone. I don't blame him. I hate any involuntary social interaction. Actually no. I just hate socializing in general.”

"Good thing you get your room too. We couldn't get individual rooms for everyone, so Hoods and I will share."

"I figured you wouldn’t want to watch me eat," EJ stated.

"Yeah, I'm SURE that was the only reason." Masky teased back, making Toby giggle.

Masky parked the car. He could see that no one was out and about. He unbuckled his seatbelt and went to get out. Shuffling from the back revealed that the others were moving to get out as well. Tabby bolted out and went to the door before smacking into it by accident and realizing that its locked. Hoodie chuckled a little unkindly. Masky sighed and shook his head. EJ stepped over her with the key in his hand and unlocked the door. Without a word, he went inside. Tabby glared at Hoodie, ready to attempt to beat his ass but decided against it, considering that she wasn't the one to make the first move in a fight. She walked in after EJ taking in her surroundings. The house was a nice, spacious place with a wood floor and white walls. It was a clear shot from the living room to the kitchen, which was clean: a rug and sitting area with a television and a coffee table and a double-sided fireplace. Off to the left, stairs were leading up, and next to them was a door that presumably led down the stairs. An open door off to the side led to a laundry room and then a bathroom. It was a rather lovely place. The only hint as to what happened to previous residents was a tiny speckle of blood on one of the rugs.

"This...is nice… it’s much more spacious than my run-down three-bedroom apartment that had paper-thin walls and constant drug busts next door.”

Tabby nodded thoughtfully and left it at that before running up the stairs excitedly, almost tripping over herself to go check out the rooms.

The others brought in their items. EJ, along with his somewhat mysterious and odd-smelling bag, came out to help with the rest. Hoodie looked more interested in settling in than exploring. It was unclear how Masky felt. EJ was mainly trying to get everything inside.

Tabby went to explore the rooms. There were four rooms upstairs, two next to each other and one at each end of the hall on top of two bathrooms. Tabby took the one that was smack in the middle and took a look around. It was spacious.

EJ entered the basement and closed the door behind him. Toby took one off to the side, and Hoodie and Masky took the enormous bedroom. It fitted, as they worked very closely together and were secretive little shits. Toby didn't have much to set up.

Tabby was speedy in unpacking as she didn't have much either she put her clothes and necessities away and hung up her pictures and Autumn’s sketches. She stood back to admire her work. Toby spent time going over his background and starting his research into some of the students they may encounter. He wanted to be able to cement his alibi by making friends. She wrote down a set of rules as she didn't like or trust any of them. And didn't want to interact with them more than she had to. That and she was antisocial as fuck.

1) only come to me if there’s an emergency

2) only come to me if you want something cleared up

3) don't talk to me unless its about food

4) don't talk to me unless you have essential information to share about the group or mission as a whole

Tabby taped it up on her front door where everyone can see and know what to expect. She then decided to go over her alibi too. She was good at remembering shit. She chuckled at her new name. "Karma," it read. She wondered if it was a coincidence or did someone that put this together knew her and her legacy at Rosewood. It didn't matter anyway. She began to do some research on her own.

Some of the kids were more public online. Some were not. Toby noted a few who seemed to be easy to get along with. He figured he could find some. He could see some pretty clear friend groups, but he didn't see that many cliques, unlike most schools. That was good. Those were obnoxious. He still wasn't sure what the mission was, exactly. He knew that it was a mission to capture someone, but he didn't know who or why.

Tabby decided that it was best to stick to what she was good at. Being a teacher’s pet, fighting and spying. She would rather avoid any unnecessary socialization if possible.

Toby knew he didn't have that option. As much as he didn't like socializing with people, he had to do it to coax out any information he needed. He wasn't afraid to break a few bones, of course, but he would prefer not to.

Tabby planned to stay in her room at all times unless someone was making dinner because she would have to watch. Or unless it was important information about the mission or if she was physically forced to socialize with the rest of the boys.

Toby glanced out of the window. The sun was high in the sky. It was hot out. Or at least it looked it. He could hear Masky and Hoodie unpacking in another room and EJ shuffling around downstairs. He could see a few people outside. It seemed just normal.

Tabby didn't realize how lonely she was. Everything was so different now that she lost all of her friends. It was evident that Masky and Hoodie were thick as thieves despite how strained their relationship was like her and Autumn. Toby could fit in with just anyone and EJ...well...she was pretty sure that he could make his way around if he had to. Tabby knew that she was an outsider, nor did she belong. Hell, she never belonged anywhere growing up. But this was the first time that it sunk in. She let out a quiet whimper before shaking her head and standing up straight. What was she thinking? She knew that she wouldn’t have friends here with them of all people. She couldn't. It was her against them. 4 against 1. She knew that she didn't belong and that she never will. That's not what she was there for. She was there for one thing and one thing only. To take out Horatio once and for all. Tabby sat on her bed, finally being allowed the quietness to process just everything that happened to her so far. Now that Tabby took this second chance at life, she had genuine freedom, more or less.

This was the most freedom that she's ever been given in my entire life. She always had to sneak around just to get what she wanted and act like an average teenager. Well, as normal as a problematic Rosewood child can get. Now she didn't have to do that anymore. With everything that has happened so far and her crippling loneliness, she was so overwhelmed that she began to cry silently. Goddamn it. She hated herself for being weak, especially around these people. She didn't have the luxury to be vulnerable. She was paranoid that they could smell weakness on her, which just made her cry silently harder.

Toby soon overheard Hoodie and Masky having some sort of conversation. He heard the words "tour" and "school" in the same sentence and groaned. They had probably been signed up to go on one of those stupid school tours to see the campus before they went there. He sighed. This was going to suck. He already hated the idea of going back to school. He wondered what Tabby was doing. Probably unpacking and didn't want to be bothered.

Tabby just cried more, letting out gut-wrenching sobs into her pillow as she curled up in a ball, praying that no one can hear her. No one could. Except for one. Footsteps in front of her door. Three knocks, but no announcement of who it was.

Tabby bolted up with dear in the headlights look. She gave a loud hiccup before announcing, "I'll be there in a minute!"

She turned the water on hot in the bathroom connected to her room and splashed the water on her face. Yes, it burned, but it would explain why her face is wet, cheeks red, and eyes puffy. She ran to the door as fast as she could and opened it. She sounded like her usual mature, tough girl self.

"Yes? What do you want? I have rules on socializing with me posted on the door, you know."

"I can't read. I don't care." The voice responded coldly.

Tabby groaned.

“Figures…”

EJ stood at her door, quite a bit taller than her. He seemed to look down at her, but it was unclear what he could see and what he couldn't. His face was hidden behind his mask.

"Be glad I even knocked." He was a blunt man. Socially not the best.

She took on a harsher and sarcastic approached.

“Oh, I am so grateful for your consideration.”

"I heard you crying." It was stated in a very matter-of-fact way.

She stood up tall, attempting to stand her ground almost in a fighting stance.

“First of all, I wasn't crying. I don't know what you heard. I was washing up, and the water happened to be too hot, and I accidentally burned myself; that’s why my face is red and my eyes puffy. Besides, even if I was, what's it to you? I appreciate cold genuine hatred then someone pretending to give two shits about me when they don't!”

You could see her almost bristling like a cat would be defensive. She couldn't tell if he was just polite or if he cared for some ungodly reason. She wasn't exactly good at being social either.

"No, that's ridiculous. You were crying. I can smell the salt and snot." He couldn't see, but he could sense that she was very defensive and that he was unwelcomed.

`Tabby hissed at him

"Well, I'm a naturally salty person. Besides, what's it to you? If you want me to be quiet, I'll just cry silently.”

"No. I want you to shut up. You crying is ridiculous. Very much so. You will have to keep a better handle on your emotions, or you may be killed or be viewed as too sensitive. Especially as a proxy."

"Yeah yeah, I hear you. I honestly don't care at this point. I'm only going to say this once. I lost everything I knew in one fell swoop. I’m struggling with the fact that the person I hate the most was right about me, I’m more alone than ever, and I'm in a household full of males. It’s four against one here. So forgive me for letting out a few salty streaks when I'm alone and away from all of you who I despise very much."

She gave a sarcastic, bitter, sickly sweet smile.

"Have a nice night" she slammed the door in his face.

"Get over it," EJ responds from behind the door.

"No, because getting over it means moving on, and moving on means forgetting. And I will never forget" she punched the door with her right hand.

Footsteps as he soon leaves her be. He doesn't care. He's looking out for her, in a sick sadistic way, true, but still nonetheless. He wasn't going to try to damage her reputation. Being that vulnerable would get her killed. And that would be annoying for him.

She heard him walk away.

"If I do forget all of my hatred, there would be nothing of me left," she added, still loud enough for him to hear.

"You are just a weak child," EJ responds through the door. "Nothing more, nothing less. Get. Over. It. Or I'll kill you myself."

"I hope the fuck you do."

She said it more softly, but she did mean it.

EJ stopped in his tracks as he heard the last of what Tabby said. He looked over his shoulder back at her door. He didn’t know how to respond to that. It sounded like she almost meant it like she wanted it to happen. He wasn’t used to being called upon his threats. He meant to use it as a scare tactic to attempt to keep her alive. If she didn’t want to be alive, he couldn’t use the value of her own life to keep her in line when she didn’t value it at all. I daresay this time he bit off more than he could chew. He also wasn’t used to being stood up to and called out on his threats. What a .strange human she was. He also wondered if she didn’t want to be alive, then why did she take this life, to begin with? What was keeping her here in the land of the living? He shook his head and made his way back into the basement. Oh well, he’ll figure something else out to help keep her in line and forcefully stay alive. Right now, she’s too intriguing to let herself get killed; maybe she’ll end up being useful too. He knew that he’d get his answers sooner than later.

After she was sure he was gone, she slid down the door with her knees up to her chest and put her face in her hands. She went back to crying silently. Great, just great. She really fucked up. She could have had a potential ally, but she just had to go and be spiteful. After a few minutes of being on the uncomfortable hardwood floor, she staggered over to her bed and flopped face-first onto it. Maybe if she stayed there long enough, she would suffocate to death in her blankets.

Oh yeah, this was going to be a long six months.
