Had the craziest experience of joining a “superhero roleplay server” for the first time in a while, one not distinctively Marvel or DC just kinda it’s own universe. It was considered “sci-fi” and so I didn’t really see any sci-fi elements really other than the city itself that it took place in but that was whatever
Things hit the fan when I started asking questions about the lore. Namely that if people born off of this island could have super powers (they called it “vigor” and also called their drug “vigor” which seems like it’s just a knock off version of Compound V from “The Boys”). When I tell you these people got so mad so fast.
Nobody on staff could give me a straight answer, and I think most of these people were in high school given their answers. They said no, if you’re born off the island, even if your parents were born on the island, that you could not have powers. I was confused because their written lore said it was “in their blood”. But when asked if it was genetic, they said no. Which is REALLY confusing bc if it’s in your blood when you’re born then it would be genetic.
I pressed a little further to ask why that is, and they dead ass told me “lol no we can’t tell you bc that’s something they’re finding out in the lore later” which is code for ��we don’t have a reason yet, stop asking questions”. When something is the BASE REASONING in your RP server, maybe give it some sort of basis other than “people born here have magical powers”
So then I was like “okay so secretly mutated character is a no-go then, okay”, but someone else kept asking questions bc we were both GENUINELY CONFUSED on this whole “it’s not genetic but its in your blood”, bc they compared it with having mutations when you’re a baby. And I was literally trying to wrap my head around this bc no one was saying the same thing.
Eventually, I just got fed up bc the staff started blatantly ignoring me and the other person asking questions and left. My friends sent me this lovely screenshot from after I left.
Mind you, I did leave after “all that” bc no one of staff could give a clear answer on LITERALLY ANYTHING. It took a whole day to get an answer to a SUPER simply question about powers. ALSO I said that if the OC was too similar to X-Men I would 100% be willing to change it bc I had a back up character in mind anyways! Additionally, this shows me they did not read my powers at all bc I stated multiple times this was a NIGHTCRAWLER LEGACY I was looking to import over with any needed changes if she was too similar to Nightcrawler at the end of the day.
Like how are you going to insult me and be wrong about the x-men 😭😭
They then also gave me the most generic copy paste backstory for my character. “Well if you don’t want to be born on Selva, you can have magic instead of vigor” Cool, I asked how she would get her appearance with just magic alone. They just said “freak accident or spell gone wrong idk”
They had also proceeded to deny someone else’s character for assumptions THE STAFF made about them. Also had a ranking system that they didn’t have explained anywhere. Oh btw did I mention that in order to have a group of vigilantes you had to BUY IT WITH THE ECONOMY BOT? Bc god forbid you don’t want to join their one group.
Funniest thing was, when ranting about it in another RP server, someone told me their friend joined the server a while ago and the staff were all condescending and rude towards them. Can’t say I expect less from people who quite literally ignore everything they are asked to talk in general about the words for porn categories 😭
The server is called Selva City, so y’all can avoid it like the plague bc holy shit that was probably the worst RP experience I had in FOREVER.

are u still doing the ask game? can i ask for 19 or 20?
for you anon, of course! 20 is actually a really lame two-sentence note that isn't worth anyone's time, so I'll do 19!
19 is a really sad story tbh. I've always really liked the character Sedusa and it kills me that the writers never did more with her. I believe they said the reason why was because they couldn't think of many kid-friendly scenarios to put her in, which is fair lmao.
lol one of my notes for this outline is "this is my dark manifesto to [Sedusa] and it comes off like a bad CW remake," which was written way before the CW show announcement. so not to get a big ego about things, but I totally beat them to the punch. This fic is my only rated M fic (though arguably Acting Normal may also change into M just for its dark themes as well).
This story is adequately tilted "Sedusa" and it follows how a plain jane named Sara became one of Townsville's most notorious villains. The plot's below, though content warning, please don’t read if your triggered by abusive relationships, domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault/harassment, or gore. The outline won't be detailed (and tbh the actual story won't be heavily detailed either) but i believe that everyone still deserves a fair warning :)
The outline doesn't do the plot justice, but it's all I got so hopefully people just Get It.
CHARACTER NOTES:
Canonically, I believe the Sedusa's character was supposed to represent envy and lust. So, one of the main themes I try to stick with when writing her character is the definition of envy, which is a "feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck."
PLOT:
Sara is a sweet and mousy little girl, who tries her best to stay invisible. She's rather plain-looking except for her really beautiful long dark hair. Originally, she's not from Townsville, but somewhere in the "country" where a person could be considered a bumpkin. Sara's a smart young girl, but her intelligence is rather unrefined. She spends most of her time obsessing over greek and Egyptian mythology.
She's from a rather big family, but she's the baby. Her father is abusive. Her mother is neglectful and Sara resents her mother for just standing by while abuse is occurring. To cope, Sara dreams of running away and falls deeper into her mythology obsession--specifically Medusa. Sara feels like Medusa would understand her.
At 16, she runs away to Townsville where she tries to be a hairdresser. With no money, she ends up in a really seedy part of town and the beauty parlor she works for ends up being a front for more illicit activities. She still does hair, but really makes her money as a call-girl of sorts. Just one of those girls who gives handjobs in the back to sad old men. It's easy money (I'm pro-sex work lol so I don't make this a big deal, but she's still a minor and it's wrong), but she's disgusted with herself (and men). At this time, she isn't very good at manipulating men--it's more like they have power over her and it reminds her of her father, only making her angrier and angrier.
It is also of note that while she's working at the Parlor, she encounters Sarah Bellum via tv (Ms. Bellum is just an intern with the Mayor at this point). She's instantly fascinated by this other Sarah and forms an odd (slightly toxic) parasocial relationship with her. Sara thinks it's amazing that Sarah went to school and is just so glamourous. Ms. Bellum is really everything Sara wants to be.
*time skip*
Sara falls in love with some jackass. Still slightly obsessed with Sarah Bellum. Still working at the parlor. Sara feels stagnant and worthless. Her jackass boyfriend and a few of his shitty friends end up attacking Sara and cutting off her hair (which was her prized possession). She gets away, but not totally unscathed.
In the process of running away, she bumps into a mysterious man who promises He can fix whatever is troubling her. The mysterious man manipulates an affirmative answer out of Sara and he "fixes" her problem. The man is HIM and he transforms her into the woman we all know as Sedusa (who goes by Ima when disguised).
“And what is it that you want?” HIM tsked, almost sounding bored.
She looked back at the mirror, at her broken reflection and lipstick smeared down her face. With a sore, croaking voice she sneered, “I want my fu-fucking hair back.”
Behind her, the entity smiled, Its facing splitting wide into two, “Oh, now that I can do.”
She watched through the shattered glass how It—HIM—snapped its odd monstrous claw. HIM’s smile grew more grotesque, as a thin bead of sweat began to break out on her forehead.
“This might hurt a little bit,” the entity giggled as she began to hyperventilate, “but what is that you little humans say?" HIM paused, watching her with a tilt of Its head as pain shot through her temples, "Oh, that’s right—”
She gasped and then screamed, dropping to her knees as she clutched at her head. Something wiggled underneath her scalp, pushing harder and harder to break against the resistance of her skin. It felt as if something was pressing against her brain, trying to carve away at her skull.
“—beauty is pain.” HIM growled, appearing next to her so Its voice—now low and baritone—was right in her ear, and It grasped her by the chin forcing her to watch the mirror as snake-like tendrils sprouted from her skull. She cried out at the sight and her body trembled with the pain.
One black, oily, twisted snake after another shot out of a bloody crater on her head. She tried her best through the pain to shake HIM off—to look away—but It held her still with a twisted laugh. She thrashed and howled in agony as the blood poured down her face in rivets. HIM didn't let go. Instead, HIM forced her still, grabbing her by the chin so she'd peer directly into the broken mirror.
Sara paled right before her very eyes, from a peachy skin tone to a white paste. She tried to blink away the tears that wouldn’t stop welling in her eyes—the green of them becoming more acidic with every passing second.
“The fun should be ending soon.” HIM giggled again, Its voice back to a soprano, but she was too forgone to hear him, as her eyes began to lull into the back of her head.
Eventually, when the transformation is complete, we see this:
Sara had stayed collapsed on her knees after HIM vanished into thin air. She stared with wide eyes as blood, sweat, and tears dripped onto and rolled off her thighs. She hardly paid attention to her surrounding, all she could do was listen. She listened to her hair. She listened to the constant moving, living, mass that slithered around her head, neck, and shoulders. The coils almost seemed to be cooing at her, comforting her through her pain, offering sweet apologies for what they had done. They promised her nothing bad would ever happen again. They were a dangerous shield forged from her own body to protect her.
Her body. A vessel for this odd new life.
“Heh.” A deranged giggle escaped her mouth, “Heh. Heh ha—hahaha!” She laughed until her throat burned and tightened, her tears finally drying.
It was instantaneous. It was powerful. Sara had never known love before, but she loved them. She loved every single one of them.
And here she had thought she'd never be a mother.
Sara becomes Sedusa--taking inspiration from Medusa, her childhood fascination. She wonders if HIM knew, but she wouldn't bother asking. She feels sexy, powerful, and unstoppable. Her hair has instilled a new confidence in her and she's finally able to stand up for herself. Soon, she realizes that she's an "exotic" beauty and has men eating out of her hand. She isn't someone who kills, but if she gets bored (or feels threaten) she will.
Things are going good until the PowerPuff Girls are finally created. When she sees them for the first time, she pities them, especially when they're run out of town. She relates to them for not being loved little girls, but is completely shocked when she finds out they've won the town over. This shock turns into resentment and she decides she'll get even with the girls
Then, cue canon. Sedusa seduces the Professor. We see what happens in that episode plus a little more. Sedusa takes out a lot of her repressed childhood trauma on the girls and is plain awful to them. By the time her stint with the Professor is over, she hates them all.
Then, there's the episode with Bellum. Bellum becomes the Athena to Sedusa's medusa. Bellum is still this elevated person in Sedusa's mind, and it only makes sense to Sedusa that she should become Bellum. To become Bellum, Sedusa seduces Bellum and they end up having a brief relationship. (Sedusa pretends to be an intern at City Hall and the two ladies bond over having the same first name). Eventually, Sedusa reveals her plot and the canon events happen. (Bellum is heartbroken over Sedusa).
I'd like to emphasize that Sedusa's relationship with Bellum almost turns her "good," but her hair coils (HIM's curse) prevents her from taking those steps. Her coils prevent close loving relationships--since they're supposed to be shield that keeps people out, preventing any chance that Sedusa's heart may be broken again. [coils represent her inability to heal from the past]
Then we run through a quick montage of her other appearances.
[throughout all of this, I would write how her hair coils are making her more and more insane]
*time skip to after the events of the og show*
This is where my plot can go anywhere. I think Sedusa becomes sloppy, maybe kills a politican. She's spirialing out of control and mad that she can't find any real happiness in her life. I think it'd be interesting to show her interacting with the rrb, not necessarily to show their relationship, but to show how Sedusa would be infuriated that HIM had sons, especially sons who hurt girls for fun ( i.e. the ppg) (a real 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend' moment for her). She's also infuriated at HIM for turning her into a monster, so being mad about his "sons" is just an excuse to get even with the entity.
To hurt HIM, she decides to hurt the boys, but the girls interfere. They won't let innocent live be taken, no matter the person's moral alignment. This infuriates Sedusa even more than HIM ever could. Because again, despite all the shitty things that have happened to the Girls, they are still good as opposed to Sedusa, who ended up bad. She doesn't understand why she had to end up the way she did.
However, the girls aren't the people who finally "defeat" Sedusa. Instead, that honor is left to Ms. Bellum (Sedusa's "Athena"), who Sedusa still very much loves in her own sick twisted way. Paralleling the Sedusa/Bellum episode in the og show, the girls (while protecting the boys) are almost defeated by Sedusa until Bellum intervenes. It's revealed that Bellum had a shitty childhood too (again enforcing the parallels/differences between the two women) and believes that it's not too late for Sedusa to change her ways (it’s a real “I’m rotten work” “no it isn’t. Not if it’s you” moment) In a moment of mental clarity, where the coils (and by extension HIM) cannot affect her judgement, Sedusa releases the boys and the girls. Sedusa doesn't stay though, like Bellum pleads, she gets scared and runs away. (but does tell Bellum she’d always love her, whatever that’s good for)
[also I decide bellum to defeat sedusa to show that the girls are still to young and that adults should be the ones dealing with other adults] [and bellum has a good track record of doing just that]
Idk if she'd be gone forever, but it's implied that she hasn't been seen in Townsville for a long time. What she gets up to is left ambiguous. She can't be good because of her hair coils, but she doesn't want to be bad. idk I don't want it to have a sad ending, but I don't think it can really be happy.
-----
I try hard to play with the concept of beauty, womanhood, purity, love and how negative/positive responses to trauma affect these concepts. Idk it's really rough and needs to be thought out more, especially the end, but I think Sedusa deserves her own story.

About Legend having insane leg strenght: what if the reason he never brags about that is because he's embarassed about it? He thinks that pulverizing a boulder with a kick is either something everyone can do or too similar to a bunny. One day he and Four get dumped into a monster camp without their items or weapons and Legend takes desperate measures to ensure they don't die: anihilating the entire camp with only his legs. He is unironically and literally capable of killing someone with his /1
This ask references this post btw, so, check it out if you need context!
Honestly, I loved this so much! THANK YOU!!! But I am half asleep, so the cool stuff I saw in my head is being stinky and not comng out. I'm sorry, hope you like my half-asleep drabbl of Legend being weak as shit while simultaneously having the strongest kick out of the whole Chain XD
Legend hates being at Ordon.
It’s not that he hates the people; he’s used to country folk, he was raised around them, heck, his grandparents have the same strong twang in their voices that everyone in Twi’s village does! He loves the fresh air and the sounds of animals and the sight of growing things everywhere he looks.
But he hates looking around and seeing Twilight’s entire village (even the freaking kids!) wander around lifting things that probably equal his entire body weight!
Seriously, Malo (that was the terrifying toddler’s name, right? That’s what Twilight said when he introduced them all, right?) could lift up a small goat with ease, and he was an actual toddler!
What was Uli feeding her children that they turned out this strong? Were all the village women using it? How on earth was every person in all of Ordon fully capable of throwing Legend over their shoulder?
It hadn’t happened yet, but Legend was on guard because it was only so much time before someone figured out it was possible, and it wasn’t as if he could fight them off.
He wasn’t jealous, definitely not. Not even when he saw Twilight carrying a mother goat across the village with an easy stride as he brought the nanny back to her pen. When he buried his face in his arms and sighed it wasn’t because he was remembering how much he had to tug and pull to move a basket of apples, no, it was just because the mere thought of carrying goats for the foreseeable future made him tired. Definitely.
But this strength was just an Ordon thing, right? It was totally just something that was common in Ordon, and Legend took comfort in that as he sat on the front porch of Uli and Rusl’s house and helped with the mending.
Even their blankets were heavy, what the heck?
But then Sky walked past.
And Sky was carrying a barrel, an entire barrel. One that swished and clunked with the sounds of grain filling it, and if the small trail of spilled seed that followed after the hero meant anything, then that thing was full.
Okay, so Skyloftians were strong too, no big deal.
Big deal.
Their entire visit to Ordon, helping to hide away animals and supplies before a local monster band stole them, was spent with Legend trying desperately to not be jealous as he watched everyone from Wind to Time lift and carry things that he couldn’t even knock over if he pushed against them.
It wasn’t even that most of thing things were heavy, it was just... he was weak.
Uli’s gaze when she’d figured out the truth had been surprised, eyes blown wide with shock as she watched as Legend, who’d opted to help indoors since he knew working outside would lead to him being more a burden than an aid, struggled to lift buckets of water to fill the wash basin. Dark brown eyes had followed him as he’s left the bucket outdoors and stomped inside, hissing and wheezing under his breath as he moved his attention to his bag and grabbed one of his power bracelets.
“Hun,” Uli’s soft country twang caught his attention as the woman drew close, concern filling her warm gaze. “Are ya’ feelin’ alright?”
And reputation or no, Legend’s Gran would have his hide on a hitching-post if he even so much as dropped his manners. There was something about country folk that was so inherently polite and welcoming, that even the salty vet couldn’t help but return with the same manners that his Gran had pounded into his head since childhood.
“Yes, ma’am.” Crimson trailed up his neck to blossom across his cheeks and shoot up his ears. He tried to ignore that Uli had a baby on one hip and a bushel of food on the other, breath contained and relaxes as she stood there, no hint of strain in her face or body language. His fingers trailed along the clasp of his power bracelet, shame building inside as he shuffled his feet.
You just can’t walk away when lady’s talking to you, especially if she’s being all polite like and just makin’ sure you’re okay.
“Are you injured?” The farm-wife pressed. “You were huffy something huge with that there bucket.”
And Legend would like nothing more than to sink into the earth as he glances over the full bucket of water that no matter how hard he tries, he just can’t lift. “I’m just not much of a farm-hand is all, ma’am. I’ll be right as rain in a tick, just needed to grab something I forgot.”
And while the look Uli gives him is a bright smile, he knows worry when he sees it peeking out of someone’s gaze. He tries to ignore that, instead turning back to the chores he’d been assigned and trying his hardest to ignore ethe fact that no one else was wearing power bracelets when they all came back for dinner that evening.
He’s not strong. So what? He can lift his sword well enough, and he can do most other things too when he wears the power bracelets.
Yes, he knows that Ravio warned him about not developing muscles if he relied on objects so much, but he’s never had time to work out or build any muscle mass, so when he needs it it’s a bit more important to just get his work done rather than hope he’ll develop it. He’s paying for that, and he knows it, but he can’t really help that he doesn’t have the time or space to really do anything about it.
Oh well, at least the others haven’t caught on.
Warriors hefts a huge rock over his shoulder and throws it, chuckling deep and loud as he smirks at the rancher. “Beat that!”
They’re clearing a road where an avalanche swept through and blocked off the main entrance to a local town. They’ve been at it for hours, and while Legend tries his hardest to be discreet by sticking to things he can actually lift, even if it does require his bracelets, the others have devolved into a contest to see who can throw stuff the furthest.
There’s nothing on the other side of the road except for the edge of a swamp, and even Legend has to admit that it’s ridiculously satisfying to hear each of the heavy stones go ‘plop’ as they land in the marsh.
Twilight smirks at the captain, all his sharp teeth on display as he hefts a rock that’s the size of Wild and easily bigger than half of the rest of the heroes. “Watch and learn, city boy.” Twilight grunts (well at least it took some effort) before throwing the boulder and watching with the rest of them as it soars through the air and lands with a dramatic ‘splosh’ in the middle of the swamp. Cheers erupt from the younger heroes, and a few even drop their own burdens to give a brief round of applause.
Warriors humphs shrewdly, gaze thin as he looks over at Twi, who only cocks a brow in challenge. “Anyone think they can beat that?”
Legend finds his gaze meeting Four’s swirling hazel, and they both quickly look away from the captain, both well aware that the biggest rocks they’ve lifted are maybe the sizes of their heads, and no where near the horrific loads that the taller heroes are tossing left and right.
“I’ll try!” Wild’s eyes are flashing as the kid clambers over the rock slide, eyes darting to and fro until they land on what has to be the biggest, most horrifically sized piece of rubble Legend has ever seen. The Champion beams, rolling his shoulders and cracking his knuckles briefly before taking the stone in both hands and lifting it over his head and throwing it.
The swam erupts in goop and several of their group yelp and have to dark back as smelly water sprinkles the edge of the path. Wild beams down from his perch on top of the pile, hands on his hips as he looks down at them. “Who dares challenge my strength?”
“How about you, Vet?” Warriors nudges him lightly, chuckling with a cocked brow. The man is just teasing, and he doesn’t mean any harm, but Legend finds himself irritated anyways. He doesn’t know what it is about Warriors, but the man gets under his skin entirely too easily.
“No thanks.” He grunts, hefting his own stone (so small in comparison) a bit higher and adjusting his grip as he walks over to the swamp.
Wild scrabbles around above, knocking stones aside and sending them rolling down towards the vet. Legend rolls his eyes, dodging quickly around a few and kicking some of the larger ones in the direction of the swamp.
He smiles to himself at the satisfying ‘plonk’ as each one hits the surface.
Four’s head aches and the next time they see Warriors they’re going to kick him in the shins.
The captain is good at planning, usually, but if his planning means that Four is waking up to stare around a vast room where people in red and black PJ suits are eating bananas because said plan went wrong, then they think they’re a bit justified in wanting to kick the captain.
They’d reach to rub their head, to adjust the headband that’s riding too low and letting their hair all hang in their eyes, but their hands are bound behind them, and they’re left huffing their breath and scrunching their nose in an effort to relive their irritation. Their mind is too wild to shake their head, but they let their eyes wander.
Legend’s violet gaze meets theirs, sharp fury bubbling below the surface as Legend sits across from them, hands bound behind him, a rope leading from his wrists to a hook in the wall that is definitely higher than either of the two of them can reach.
As unkind as it is, they breathe a sigh of relief to know they aren’t alone (even if being four people in one body technically means that they’re never alone as is). It’s...nice, having Legend around. They don’t know what it is, but the taller boy feels safe and that’s something that they, especially Red, fond comfort in.
But the fact that two of them are here means that Wars is getting both his shins kicked, fair is fair.
Legend squeaks in that harsh way he does when he’s angry, a poor and rather adorable attempt at a growl, but apparently, he’s unable to make any sort of guttural noise, so the squeak is the best he can do. “I am going to strangle Wars when we get back. Yiga? Seriously?”
They raise a brow. “Weren’t we fighting moblins?”
“And a Talus. Unless these guys have transformative rings, then someone messed up.” The vet grates out, but before he can try and unravel their situation any more, a masked face is shoved into the vets own, one of the pajama clad banana eater’s apparently trying to leer over the vet, breath strong and rank even behind his mask.
“So! The friends of the hero awake! You will call me Astorah! Leader of the Yiga and supreme priestess to Lord Ganon!”
“I’ll call you annoying and maybe alive if you let us go.” legend drawls, unimpressed. “Seriously lady, get your face of mine or I’ll knock it in.”
They smirk. Legend is as polite and well-mannered as can be around the country villages, but the minute he’s away from thick mountain drawls and country twang, the Vet becomes a sour and salty speaker who’s as likely to threaten you as o smile at you. It would almost be funny if they weren’t being held captive.
Astorah makes an indignant sound, hand shooting out to smack Legend across the face. The vet can’t do anything to stop it, and the blow sends his head swinging to the side, a faint grunt escaping as the self-declared priestess stands to her full height (she’s taller than either of them at any rate) and promptly orders her subordinates to see to it that the prisoners be brought to ‘the mountain’.
“The hero will be looking for his friends,” The pajama clad leader declares excitedly, hands rubbing together like a villain in a bad stage play. “So, let's help him out, shall we?”
The vet and smithy exchange a glance, each somewhat surprised at how... pathetic their opponent seems to be.
“Their screams should do the trick; all heroes listen to cries of help after all.” There’s a mad waver in her voice and the pitching is all wrong.
She’s delusional. Vio whispers, and the rest of them are inclined to agree.
Across from them, legend scowls as another red and black clad weirdo comes to grasp his binds, unhooking them from above as yet another does the same to Four.
Ideally, they would try and escape now, but legend only follows along slowly as Astorah leads them through the endless halls and up step after step, murmuring, laughing and shrieking loudly as she goes, hands fluttering and gestures erratic as Legend’s scowl grows more and more each minute.
It all seems rather pathetic, all thing considered, until another, larger, more intimidating individual stops them, voice harsh as it grates out something in a language neither hero can understand. Astorah protests and shrieks at the figure, but they disregard her and instead turn to the heroes.
“Put them back, screams echo within a cave far better than on a mountain top.”
Four’s stomach sinks. Being outside means being closer to escape, means finding the others easier and kicking Wars for landing the in a battle where two of their own had been captured by the enemy.
Legend seems to be of the same idea, his eyes flashing as he pulls at his bonds, tugging away from the guard holding onto him.
The oddly garbed enemy slaps him again, but Legend doesn’t seem to be affected, only pushing harder and biting towards the next hand that swings his way. Astorah pulls away with a light sob, shrieking when Legend’s teeth keep hold of her hand while the enemies around them erupt into action.
Fours unsure of what happens next, their head is still spinning, and quite honestly, they’re sure Hyrule will declare him concussed when they get back, but he does see blows being thrown Legend's way, blades being drawn as shouts echo around them.
There’s a dark of movement, and one of the enemies falls. Four stares in shock for half of a moment before turning their gaze to Legend, who, for all intents and purposes, looks half feral.
Blood stains the Vet’s bucked teeth and his hair swirls as he spins and ducks beneath blows. His hands are still bound tightly behind him, a rope trailing on the ground as Legend evades contact, yet somehow still manages to down another enemy.
Four would try and help, but their mind is spinning, their brain not yet up to date with what their eyes are seeing, that and they’re still bound themself, their arms are fastened behind them and they’re not even sure how Legend is managing to get blows in.
And the he sees.
The vet’s boot swings up to make contact with one of the jaws of the enemy.
Yiga. Wild had told them about them, the Yiga clan, people out for the hero’s blood. The word only comes to mind now, but they’d had to tune out of the battle for a brief moment to remember it. They’re brought back to it as the sound of an agonized scream breaks through the air, accompanied by the harsh snapping sound that Four knows too well from having broken their own bones.
Legend fights with his hands behind his back, kicking out like an angered horse and injuring any who step near. It’s impressive honestly, watching how blood spurts and bones crumple from the force of the vet’s blows, and all that without having use of his hands.
The Yiga back away, eventually leaving the room entirely as Legend squeaks out an angry Legend sound after them, before turning his attention to Four. Four says nothing, and it appear Legend thinks that that’s okay, because he darts towards the door they had been headed too, leading Four with nervous glances being thrown back over his shoulder every few minutes.
The mountain top they emerge onto is higher than Four expected, and they want nothing more than to snuggle down in the cozy parka Legend once leant him, but they have none of their items, and they’re lucky to even be out in one piece.
It takes a lot of work to climb down a mountain with their hands tied, but their fingers are too cold to make any good of the knots, and they manage in the end to climb down. They’re in the last legs when Four notices what looks like a small group of travelers below, and they can almost hear the singing of the Four Sword from them.
They’d dropped their blade in their battle, the very reason they were caught in the first blade. They’re not happy someone else touched it, but they are glad they didn’t leave it behind.
“Four,” Legend’s voice breaks them from their thoughts, and as they turn to face him, they find that Legend’s face is flushed, ears twitching nervously as he avoids their gaze. “Could you...not tell the others about all that?”
“About what?” They clamber down another stone, Legend still within sight as he trails down beside them.
“The...kicking.” Legend flushes. “I know you guys- most of them anyway- could have it handled better. I just, Wars is bad enough as is, I don’t need him bring up my lack of strength next time he decides he needs ammo to mess with me.” There’s a scowl on the vets features as he hops down and across and small hold in the mountain side. “I get it, I’m weak in comparison, they could probably have beheaded those guys with their bare hands, but mine fingers are shit o a good day and-”
Four doesn’t know if they actually figure something out or randomly spew words, but Legend’s eyes turn to them in surprise when the smithy stares down at him. “You do know most Hylia’s can’t do anything by kicking each other, right? I’m planning on kicking Wars when we get back, and the most it’ll do is bruise him.” Their voice is flat, but they let Viol take over, he always had the best endurance out of them when it came to rocky places anyways. “You kicked a man’s ribs in, Legend.”
And it’s not funny, it really isn’t, but they giggle, watching as Legend flushes before their eyes, and when the others trail up towards them, gazes curious and concerned, Four is laughing hysterically.
It could be the head wound, it could be Legend’s face, but the thought that Legend was able to kick a man's ribs in and hadn’t done so to any of them yet was both surprising and highly relieving for whatever reason, and it’s hilarious listening to Legend try and explain himself as the vet protests and struggles against the fact that apparently Hylian’s don’t usually have enough leg strength to kill people with.
Yes, people died back there. Yes, Four just watched them die. Maybe it’s Shadow’s influence, but Four can’t find that they're overly bothered. They are tired and injured and cold, and if they can laugh about something as ridiculous as Legend’s strange strength imbalance, then Hylia danggit they’re going to!
They never do kick Wars’ shins in, they giggle to hard at the thought that Legend doing so could actually break them, so they topple over before they can lift their feet.

Well, hello there fellers.
You can ignore this text post if you want, it comes straight from me, completely outside of Drawings or Proyect updates.
I just really felt as though I needed to take the time to write up my thoughts into a, very possibly, LOOOOOOOOOOOONG post, since I have a LOT on my head right about now.
So, my melancholy, rather depressing, but perhaps amusing, musings, under the cut.
Right, so my whole string of thought was sort of just... proppeled out of me reminiscing about the past... 2 years, maybe year and a half.
I got thinking hard about She-Ra again, LMAO. and I know, I KNOW, why am I even thinking about that damned show again.
BUT, I was really thinking hard about how much I went through, positively I mean, how much growth I had (Around my art and my vocation obviously) with She-Ra.
And really, if you were to scour through my blog, if you went back all the way to... maybe it was late 2018, early 2019, when I posted my first fanarts around She-Ra, you’ll see how far back I was, skill-wise. I mean I wasn’t exactly a beginner, but I weren’t no Grade A artist neither.
And PRIOR to all of that I had more or less drawn fanart intermitently.
Anyone who followed me back when I made RWBY stuff, specifically Whiterose fanart could attest to that. I wasn’t consistent at all, and I experimented more often than not with every single drawing I was making. And don’t get me wrong, I really enjoyed drawing stuff for RWBY, I sort of miss it now LMAO.
But I can certainly see just HOW POWERFULLY drawn I was to She-Ra, because my output of content and the growth of my skill as an artist was EXPONENTIAL. I suppose in a way I owe it really to MY sudden... obsession? Fixation? on that show.
VERY HONESTLY, at this point in time, I feel like I could REALLY speak on what things drew me to She-Ra, and precisely what things KEPT me there. IDK I think it used to be a very special little show.
On one hand? I really had just decided to watch it because I was starting to fall out of love with RWBY.
RWBY WAS a show I’d also loved, and which also meant a lot to me, but the things that MEANT a lot to me, were just not given the story I would’ve been interested in. That AND the small fandom space I’d carved out for myself was getting even smaller. Smaller AND very... toxic? Uncomfortable? I felt as though... my efforts and my involvement in that fandom were neither welcome nor appreciated at one point, let alone the fact that on the SHIPPING side of things, it stopped being fun.
So there I was, starting She-Ra up. I’d known about it for some time before, and I’d *Heard* that it was a fun good show, and most specially... *With an active, HUNGRY fandom, raging about a very popular Ship*. So I thought to myself, YAY, I’ll watch this show and I’m REALLY gonna do my best to go for everything popular.
I was tired of unwelcoming fandoms, tired of enjoying the very little measly, *Unpopular* things about shows, this was all about having a GOOD time. And maybe finally getting my works out, really finding a motivation to create stuff.
I mean in hindsight, now I know I fucked myself over MANY times.
You see because, as soon as I started watching She-Ra, I TRIED to do something different about the way I consumed shows.
In the past I used to be VERY ship-centered about my show experiences, to the point were FANON-Ship-centric relationships with shows would make the stories I was watching really boring and bleak in comparison. I had been afraid at the time, that THIS would also ruin She-Ra for me. So I really thought about... NOT tainting my vision and perception of the show with... Fandom stuff, Fanon or Ship-centric views, NOT EVEN CREATOR INTERACTIONS. I really tried to watch it blind and enjoy it for what it was.
Fool I was, I should’ve done the opposite.
It’s a tired old story, and a really redundant thing for ME to talk about. But I really felt a DEEP disappointment with She-Ra. Akin to LOSS almost.
Cuz you see, for a year and a half I ended up CENTERING myself on She-Ra, on more than one level.
On one hand, I TRULY believed She-Ra was a show with a story that I loved, there were plenty of characters that REALLY spoke to me. Characters like Glimmer? for example? And her storyline? for me are *one in a million*.
Of course I’m... REALLY compacting my She-Ra experience. I had come to appreciate MANY things about it. It’s world, it’s story, the characters, the comedy, the animation, the people who loved it and grew because of it, etc.
Furthermore, once my initial *doubt* about the show had passed, I really immersed myself in the fandom side of things. And I gotta say, I really enjoyed it for as long as it lasted. I think I experienced a new level of feeling like I *belonged* in a community, and a feeling that people LIKED what I did for it, and that people wanted MORE of ME in it.
Alongside that, and going back to animation. Geez, She-Ra came at the best *or worst* (depends on how you wanna look at it in hindsight now, LMAO), time of my life.
Literally on the verge of me finishing up with Prepschool and having to chose a career for University.
Prior to She-Ra, I really was trying to pinpoint my vocation, and animation had been in my mind for a LONG time, since Steven Universe really.
AND... Idk, AGAIN, THERE WAS SOMETHING ABOUT SHE-RA... which told me... “This is important”. Animation is important, being able to tell tales for people is important. Telling tales for people who need it, or people who don’t often get to tell tales is important. This medium is BEAUTIFUL, I MEAN, LOOK AT EVERYTHING IT CAN SPAWN OUT OF PEOPLE.
So it helped me make THAT decision.
Also alongside these things well... I go back to all of that about “Belonging”, and “community”.
Boy I met some of the most amazing friends I ever have in my life. People whom I respect, people who I admire, people who thought like me, liked ME, enjoyed this show, etc.
OF COURSE, at the time, and I really should’ve known better. We met out of our mutual LOVE for Glimmadora, LMAO.
ME? FALLING IN LOVE WITH AN UNPOPULAR SHIP? Who’da thought.
AND I DID SO, *DAMN NEAR DIVORCED FROM FANDOM* LMAOOOOO, you can see how my “I’ll learn to love whichever aspects of this show I’m *gonna* love, outside of fandom influence” policy really just fucked me in the ass.
AND GOD, DID I *LET IT* BE A PART OF ME.
That comunity, those friends, that ship, that show, those creators. It was all I thought about, and it DROVE me. so much so I put up with so much shit from my University. I put up with so many bad things in my life that were going on because of that show.
And I see now that many of those friends I mentioned did too. GOD, how I wish... we just hadn’t.
I think... for most of us things had already been pretty shit, not gonna lie.
There was the pandemic, for a start. Prior to May the 15th I had an uncle of mine die of COVID, which shook me to *my* core, but dear old She-Ra and the Glimmadora fandom gang were there to cheer me on. (This was around the time really horrid people in the She-Ra fandom, whom LOATHED Glimmadora with a passion were making “Glimmadora shippers must have Covid, since a symptom of Covid is a lack of taste” Jokes btw.)
And I think of my friends also, who have always spoken to me about their problems and their lives. For all accounts I think, they’d always had it harder than me, and they found themselves a WILL and a DRIVE to go on... through this, through She-Ra, and our friendship.
Then May the 15th came and it’s all been going downhill from there HSEBRGJKSEHRBGKJSERHGBJK.
I mean... I understand NOW, just how DAMAGING for myself it was to... cling so much to that show, to all of it. NEVER should’ve connected the drive of my vocation to it.
Cuz yanno... even if I HAVE continued to grow and get better the past few months, some things haven’t changed for the better.
For instance, I basically LOST my entire space here, in fandoms, in ejoying shows. I LITERALLY ONLY CREATE NOW... Either out of spite, or for my friends.
There is a VERY DEEP loathing now within me about stuff like... Catradora for example. I hate it, it makes me feel disgusting, simple as that. And THAT kind of feeling isn’t welcome here, also simple as that. So I’m out of a space and that hurts.
PFFT, basically all the pieces I produce now, which I still do with a She-Ra theme. Nobody’s gonna wanna consume MY content anymore, and they don’t. I made sure they couldn’t because I knew, I wasn’t going to be able to stomache this She-Ra fandom anymore.
That’s been another thing too. I don’t like being a contrarian, I don’t like being the guy who thinks the thing everybody loves is bad or wrong, and if I could SO HELP ME GOD, I’d change my entire view of it all. I don’t really care about being right or wrong anymore, I just want that peace of mind back.
HELL, there were people I knew since 2016 almost, who kinda just told me...
Shut the fuck up or leave.
On some cases I shut my mouth, on others I just left.
And yanno... I do feel miserable about it. But it also makes it all the harder when I think of my friends?
GOD DAMN, EVERYTHING THAT *COULD* GO WRONG, WENT WRONG FOR THEM.
ALWAYS, for all of my friends. And even through the hurt, I sit here and think, well I think I still have hope! I think I still have a drive to go on and persue animation and tell good stories.
But I understand now... that *I* have a priviledge over my friends. The priviledge of support. I’m not REALLY alone, there’s people helping ME.
My friends don’t have that, and I can’t give them that, how I wish I could.
And it does just HURT only being able to tell my friends, “HEY! Have hope things’ll be better!” And then we all turn to the only beacons of hope we shared, and seeing them all dull and out of light. No Glimmer of hope.
Like, how do you tell people to hold out, to keep fighting, to keep trying to STILL CHASE THEIR DREAMS... When you can’t even help them keep their heads high when they’re trying yo get a damned job. When no matter how much THEY try they keep getting knocked down.
When there’s no longer a space were they feel confortable sharing their creations, because everyone they had ONCE tried to please with them? suddenly decided they were of no value.
So here we are.
I’m starting up a new semester in a couple of days, hopefully building myself up more to chase MY dreams... whilst all my friends suffer and can’t chase theirs.
Shit’s fucked. I wish I could do more.
PFFT, I guess, long story short:
Life unfair, Me Sad.
Me Angery, Me Bitter
Me Lost, They Won
Boohoo I guess.
SO ANYWAYS... I really just... needed to put these thoughts out in words. Scream to the void as it were.
I can’t wait to go back into discord or twitter or tumblr and see how my friends can’t catch a fucking break.
And how things will continue to get worse before they get better.
God I hope they get better, for all of us, if not atleast for them. They’ve already gone through enough.

- and since cali doesn't have subways and subway poles are not something you generally see
- does it? i've never fucking been there i shouldn't be spitting facts that probably aren't actually facts
- for the sake of this imagine california does not have subways
😌
- you decide to Pull a Move and fucking wrap your leg around it, laughing as you spin slightly
- very ungracefully might i add
- we're talking about y/n. the Clumsy Messy Hair Bitch from every goddamn book on this app
- can we talk about how y/n is a whole ass character. like ask anyone who reads fanfic to describe y/n and they Would Not describe themselves DESPITE THE FACT THAT Y/N LITERALLY MEANS "YOUR NAME"
- anyways (two shots of vodka *glug glug*)
- peter gets slightly flustered at your stripper move but covers it up with a laugh
- something about The Way peter's holding onto the pole above ur head is VERY ATTRACTIVE
- now is the time to go look back at the gif i used for this imagine
"what's a camera like you doing in a place like this?"
- fuck you tom for being cute shut up
- the car stumbles and
- CLICHE MOMENT ALERT y'all know what's going on
- you stumble slightly and peter (speedy spidey reflexes) quickly grabs you by the waist to steady you
- AWKWARD MOMENT

"thanks"
"oh- yeah, uh, no problem"

- you lowkey wish he'd kept his hand on your waist OOPS
- we desperate for human contact 😔
- the two of y'all get off the subway at his stop and as soon as you step out into the like Actual Street or Whatever you're like 😀 cause it's so PRETTY and it's peter's home so it's even more exciting
- you get lunch at delmar's (ofc)
- mr delmar kept making suggestive eyes between the two of you so you were like o_0
- but it was SO CUTE BECAUSE PETER AND MR DELMAR JUST HAD SUCH A CUTE RELATIONSHIP TOGETHER
- AND FUCKING MR DELMAR HAD THE BALLS TO GO
"supongo que ya no preguntarás por mi hija, eh?"

- the two of you share a bag of gummy worms
- overall 11/10 experience
- i got a bit carried away with that and we're running on over 3000 (rip) words here so i'm gonna hurry this up goodness fuck
- editing ryn here to say HAHA 3000 words little did i Fucking Know
- the two of you get back to headquarters and peter DROPS YOU OFF AT YOUR ROOM LIKE THE GENTLEMAN HE IS AND IT'S KINDA AWKWARD BECAUSE HOW ON EARTH WOULDN'T IT BE BUT HE'S SO CUTE SO IT'S OKAY
- ngl you lay on your bed for a second like "wait was that a date?"
- peter legit just walks to the end of the hallway before closing his eyes and leaning back against the wall, letting out a sigh
- he's like holy shit i need to stop getting so whipped over girls within less than 24 hours
- then fucking sir STANK rounds the corner
"hey, pete! how was showing short-circuit around?"
"oh, hi, uh, it was good"
- this boy is fucking Flustered As Hell
"good? good. what'd y'all do?"
"we, just, um, walked around and i showed her around queens, too"
- tony just looks at him for a second and is like damn this kid needs a break i'll lay off of him

- and i want her apartment SO BAD I'M LITERALLY OBSESSED WITH IT
- THE FUCKING FIRE ESCAPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
- not me having a weird obsession with fire escapes ever since reading/writing peter parker fics which tend to involve them in some way or another
- SO YEAH peter's hanging around a lot
- at first it's a bit weird cause you're like..... You Don't Live Here.....??????????? but At This Point You Almost Do????????????????
- AIN'T NO COMPLAINTS THOUGH
- the two of you break the ice pretty quick
- the night of the day after peter showed you around (did that make any sense at all probably not) you were just chilling in your room watching uhhhhhhhhhhhhh
- let me think rq
- um okay uhhhhhh (bonus points to you if you read that in peter's voice)
- OKAY SO YOU'RE WATCHING LADY BIRD (bomb movie)

- my thoughts are........ incoherent
"i'm watching lady bird, uh, if you wanna join"
- WATCH A MOVIE?
- WITH YOU?????????????????
- hells yeah!
"o-oh, yeah, sure"
- mans awkwardly waddles in and sits at the edge of your bed
"you can like... lay down, peter. i don't bite"
- he just awkwardly lays down and his side lightly presses against yours
- you have to shut your eyes for a second because MAN does unexpected contact from a boy have such a big effect on you
- not even kidding one of my guy friends patted me on the head as he walked past my desk and i DEADASS GOT BUTTERFLIES I WAS SO ASHAMED
- LIKE WHAT THE FUCK WHO ALLOWED THAT ???????????????
- so anyways (🥂)
- why isn't there a shot glass emoji this is discrimination (i'm kidding)
- the movie was great like
- you and peter would just laugh at random parts and eventually just started critiquing every little moment
- it ended up as a very great moment very nice very cool
- we like furthering our relationships with cute boys :D
- those of you who have been following the story (on my message board) abt the boy i'm talking to aka furthering my relationship with... yeahyeah!
- essentially you and peter start hanging out every day
- the Chemistry you have is Unmatched
- like you just clicked really well
- mainly y'all just watch tv in the commons
- you binge watch i'm not okay with this even though you've already seen it
- peter's like "so why do you like this show so much?"
- ur like 0_0 ... "the plot"
THE PLOT IN QUESTION: stanley barber
- who happens to give me peter parker vibes a little bit
- food network turns on and it takes you like five minutes tops to migrate to the kitchen
- the brownies y'all made did not turn out well
- bucky took a bite, made a face, then smirked
"you two put weed in here?"
- no, bitch, we just suck at baking
- lots of late night convos ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
- BIG ICEBREAKERS THERE
"wait so like... how big do you expect our dicks to be"
"peter what the fuck"
"i'm curious!"
- if you haven't had one of those convos with someone of the opposite gender... You Haven't Lived
- also why do guys like talking about their dicks so much???? the amount of comments they make about them during those convos.. meanwhile i'm just trying to figure out their personality 😔
- the two of you even spend time in the lab together
- this is when he sees ~short-circuit~ in action
- y'all are doing some dumbass experiment idk
- OOH IDEA
- so y'all are making ✨something✨ for an upgrade on peter's suit
- my idea was only half developed don't make fun of me
- and you make a Stunning Realization and fucking SPIN around in your chair to face peter
- ur just rambling making science-y smart connections and peters like holy shit she's a fucking genius of course she is how on earth did she just
- and then as you get further into your discovery you suddenly just cut off and stare into the distance with this Super Serious Look on your face
- THE WAY THAT AS I WROTE "SUPER" 1D WENT "I CAN'T BE NO SUPERMAN"
(but for you i'll be superhuman!)
- then you just SPIN AROUND in your chair and start working on the suit again
- peter's just like 0_0 for a moment
"huh, okay"
- it takes you a few seconds to realize he even said anything but then you look up and ur like 0_0 (we're gonna have to start taking a shot every time i use that face goodness fuck)
"what?"
"you short-circuited!"
- he's all giddy and smiley about it too cause he FINALLY UNDERSTANDS
"shut up, parker"
- peter Totally has a thing for being called parker i just know it
- MY CAT JUST JUMPED UP AND CLAWED ME
- greedy bitch
- AS I WAS SAYING...
- once you get in the ~thing~ that you designed for the suit
- okay i really need to think of an actual upgrade give me a min
- OKAY SO YOU MADE A VOICE CHANGER
- wow very cool, me! innovation that Excites!
- we're just gonna ignore the fact that the interrogation protocol has a voice changer got it? yeahyeah
- peter's like No Way when you tell him you finished it
- you slip on the mask and tell karen to activate the Grown Man Protocol (not peter being offended by the name)
- you start talking and immediately BUST OUT LAUGHING because you sound like Siri
- and since you're Hella Genius you made it so you could change the voices just like how siri is
- so suddenly you're a BRITISH MAN
- you and peter can't stop laughing
- you give it to peter and then you're like
"wait no try it on with the suit too"
- peter's like o_0?
"for effect!"
- walter beckett?
- TOM?
- okay whatever
- peter's like
"okay um i'm just gonna uh... change over here"
- you nod and turn around
- just the sound of his clothes hitting the ground itself gives you butterflies
- and then you realize
- you can deadass See Him Through The Reflection Of The Microscope
- is that even possible? for the sake of this imagine Yes
- your face gets SO HOT
- it's a very small reflective area thing so not a lot of detail but ENOUGH TO SHOW HIS TONED SEXY ASS PHYSIQUE
- fucking crush me peter please i beg it would be an honor
"i want you to do it so i can stomp you with my hooves, i'm so fucking crazy"
- (crazy for you, peter!)
"okay it's on"
- you practically BLAST around in your seat because the VOICE IS WORKING AND IT'S STILL BRITISH
- peter your tom is showing
- ngl though you couldn't stop thinking about how peter looked through the reflection and you didn't even want to THINK about how he would look-
...
- you know
- in all actuality you did want to think about it like think about it for literally the rest of your life if you could but we're gonna ignore that
- nonetheless the experience was Muy Bueno Very Fun and you and peter spent a solid hour just messing with the voices
- ALSO!!!!!!!!!! another plotline: WHEN PETER'S AT HEADQUARTERS FOR A LEGITIMATE REASON
- that reason being training
- let me just say
- even though he only trained twice during ur visit
- you fucking CHERISHED those moments
- because when peter told you the night before his training session that he would be training in the morning you were like Hmm...... I Need To See This
- so you deadass "take a walk" (Very Peter Of You) by the training room
- and ur met with the sight of this:
i hate him so fucking much
who the FUCK ALLOWED THIS i can't breathe
- you definitely take out your phone to snap a few pics DON'T EVEN LIE TO ME YOU WOULD
- ur camera is on live mode too 😌
- then you run away before you get caught but DAMN
- when you go back to your room you just Inspect those pics like a crazy person and keep replaying the live
- then u look at the time
"friday, when does peter's training end?"
"peter parker's training is scheduled to finish in two minutes"
- TWO MINUTES?
- SAY LESS!
- you check yourself in the mirror before ZOOMING downstairs and distracting yourself in the kitchen
- silently thanking the gods (thor?) that no one was in the kitchen when you got there
- (hi i'm getting carried away with this mini plot so just like don't mind it)
- (carried away as in i really really did get carried away LOL)
- you're like what the fuck i can't just Stand Here in the Middle of the Kitchen so you grab some strawberries from the refrigerator and start cutting them up (they just Taste Better that way don't fight me) for a "snack"
THE SNACK IN QUESTION: peter
- yeah ❤
- just as you pop one into your mouth peter walks in to get a glass of water
- now let me just set the scene:
you: mouth in a weird 'o' shape as your mouth forgets how to chew because fucking peter just walked in peter: curly hair a sweaty mess, skin glistening with sweat, wearing black shorts and a gray tank top which Just Fucking Ends You, his usual adorable baby face, oh and he's also panting cause he's fucking exhausted and now you're also out of breath because damn that is Hot strawberries: chopped
"oh, hi y/n"
- the fucking PANTING
- why is breathing heavy so hot?
- i think we all know
"hey, peter"
- shoutout to your stark genes for giving you fake confidence whenever you need it
"want any strawberries?"
- he fucking chugs half of his water just Right In Front Of You
the jawline i hate him so much can he shut up right now like genuinely please shut the fuck up goodness fucking gracious tom
jk please step on me
- he swallows and has Finally Caught his Breath
"oh, yeah, thank you"
- he just walks over to you
- as if he doesn't look the way he does
- and just grabs a strawberry and pops it into his mouth
- nonchalantly or whatever
- you pray to THOR he can't hear your heart as it fucking SLAMS AGAINST YOUR STERNUM
- it's beating so fast it's like LET ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- he hums
"strawberries taste so much better after training"
- you know what would taste better after training?
- lol
"thank you for the snack, i'm gonna go shower now"
- he elbows you and smiles lightly
- you almost can't speak because it's all Far Too Much for you to handle rn
"no problem, peter"
- as if you weren't having a heart attack okay
- i really got caught up in that but WHATEVER
- ladies and gents we are running on over 5k words at this point holy shit
- SO I'M GONNA START WRAPPING THIS UP A LITTLE
- basically you and peter become good friends by the end of your trip
- and then
- the dreaded
😔
- time to leave, bros
- the night before is kinda weird cause you and peter are just hanging out on the roof of headquarters because why not
"leaving new york usually doesn't feel as weird as this"
- peter looks over at you
- btw at this point 🅱eter is Beyond Whipped so he's fucking SAD that you're going home
"what do you mean?"
- the two of you share a look and it's very sad because you both know that you've become really good friends and both want a bit more
- part of you considers being a baddie and just trying to like at LEAST kiss him tonight (maybe more wink wink) so you could at least have that before you go but you chicken out
- the two of you say goodbye that night because your flight is at the Crack of Dawn
- he awkwardly pulls you in for a hug and suddenly you deeply consider locking yourself in your room so nobody can make you leave
- and then you remember vision can fucking Hover through walls and you're like Well Damn!
- you hug him tightly (a bit too tight yeah maybe)
- when you pull apart this Bitch literally goes
"well it was nice meeting you"
- you CAN'T FUCKING HOLD IT IN AND JUST MAKE THE MOST OBSCENE LAUGHING NOISE
"peter we spent a week together and you're acting like we had a 5 minute encounter"
"i don't know how to act!"
- me neither, peter. me neither
- so you leave in the morning and you're fucking UPSET
- tony is in the car with you and happy and he WONT STOP TALKING ABOUT YOU AND PETER BECAUSE YOU SPENT AT LEAST HALF OF YOUR TIME WITH HIM
- YOU'RE LIKE SHUT UP I'M GOING THROUGH A HEARTBREAK OVER A BOY I'VE KNOWN FOR SEVEN DAYS
- aren't we all
- your goodbye to tony is sad but like Not Even As Sad as your goodbye with peter which is KINDA MESSED UP BUT
- the heart wants what it wants
- and just when you get on the plane
- is when you realize
- you and peter didn't get each other's numbers
...
- Wtf 💔
- so THE WHOLE PLANE RIDE IS SAD
- YOU LISTEN TO MUSIC AND DRAMATICALLY LOOK OUT THE WINDOW LIKE UR IN A SAD MUSIC VIDEO FOR HALF THE FLIGHT
- YOU ALSO REWATCH LADY BIRD :,(((((((((((((((((((((((( in remembrance of the good old times
- when you get home you're like kinda happy to be home but you miss new york and tony and peter and everyone So Much
- even ur mom notices she's like 🤨 Hmm... this Ain't The Usual!
- so this is where the request ended off but i'm adding to it because i do Not want to leave this on an angsty note
- I'M ABOUT TO HIT 6K WORDS BUT IT'S FINE
- LET'S CRANK THIS OUT WOOT WOOT
- so peter just so happens to wake up that morning and SIT UP VERY QUICKLY AS IT HITS HIM
- (ur like on ur flight probably zooming over the Goddamn Midwest)
- he has the same realization that you did
"may!"
- the woman RUNS in she's like WHATISEVERYTHINGOKAYAREYOUOKAY
"i just realized i didn't get y/n's number"
- woman melts she's like i thought you were fucking DYING goddamn spider bitch boy
- but then she melts even more because she didn't even need peter to tell her how Whipped he is
"awh, i'm sorry hon"
- next time peter goes to headquarters he talks to tony and the mans just like This Is Your Fault!
- but then nat pops in
"peter, you do realize you could probably find her on social media, right"
- moment of silence for you and peter's stupidity because somehow Neither Of You Thought Of That???????????
- rip
- as soon as he leaves from training (looking Sexy As Hell) he searches your name on instagram
- "y/n stark"
- and nothing shows up
- because you never told him your actual last name because IT NEVER CAME UP
- he just assumed it was stark cause why wouldn't he
- SO HE'S LIKE :,)
- until his next time at headquarters
"mr. stark i couldn't find her on instagram"
- tony's like i really got this kid hooked huh
"pretty sure she has one, pete"
"well i looked her up! y/n stark. nothing"
- then tony's like oHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
"kid, her last name's l/n."
- peter just sits there like 0_0 for a second before it all ties together in his head and makes sense
"oh my god"
- SO HE GETS YOUR INSTAGRAM
- he definitely looks through all his posts and deletes a few embarrassing ones before requesting to follow you
INSTAGRAM peterbparker has requested to follow you.
- you SHOOT UP IN YOUR BED
- NOBODY MOVE
- you do the same thing peter did and look through all your posts and delete a few before accepting his request
- and then you request back and he immediately accepts it
- commence the hour of stalking!
- the two of you just fucking Investigate each others' accounts before peter's like O Shit! i should Probably message her!
peterbparker: Right after you left I realized I forgot to get your number
- kinda awkward but your heart is RACING you're like AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
- the two of you begin talking and get each other's numbers and snapchats and whatever
- over time the two of you get really close over the internet like
- you become the first ones you go to when you see a dog or get food at a cool place or see a funny meme/tiktok or just like have a problem in general or want to talk
- and ofc you gush about him to your friends and they're like
- Girl... u really fell for a New York Boy Huh
- after a few months you finally muster up the courage to facetime him
- you almost Collapse once his face shows up because guess the fuck what
- he just finished training
- mua ha haaaa
"hello!"
- he says it all goofy like hi hello we're facetiming now holy shit oh FUCK we're FACETIMING!!!!!!?????!?!?!?!?
- i luv him
- the two of you talk for a bit and you fan yourself off-screen because the sight of him Genuinely made you light on fire and plus you were just nervous in general
- he even runs around the entire fucking building to find everyone so you can say hi cause he's babey
- the team DEFINITELY yells stuff like "lovebirds!" and "date already!" in the background and peter's face just gets So Red
- he finds tony and deadass goes
"mr. stark! it's your niece!"
- tony's like No Shit!
- overall amazing 100/10 time facetiming
- so the two of you start facetiming practically every day even though it's not summer anymore and you're back in school and have hella busy lives (peter's literally a superhero?)
- you'll facetime while doing homework and he'll help you with physics (even though you don't really need the help you pretend you do anyways) and it's so cute when he does because he Loves physics so much so he gets really excited and into it
- sometimes you'll fall asleep while on ft and he'll take screenshots
- ngl he set his favorite one as his lockscreen because he loved it so much and ned and mj definitely saw it and were lowkey like 🥺🥺 cause they ship you two so hard
- and when he'd fall asleep on ft you'd take screenshots too and look at them every time you missed him
- NOW THE EXCITING PART
- so it's winter now
- the Horrible Disgusting period between thanksgiving and christmas break
- because of finals the two of you facetime a bit less so it's kinda sad
- BUT THEN
- right when you get out of school for christmas break you're about to call peter so the two of you can celebrate (not peter checking the time every few minutes after he got out of school because he's a couple hours ahead)
- somebody's got a surprise
- you get a call from peter right when you get into your car and you're like Perfect Timing Hell Yeah
- you answer it and are met with the sight of him and tony smiling at the camera
*immediately screenshots it*
"oh, hi tony!"
"we have a surprise"
- peter's like bouncing from excitement and tony gives him a look before starting to talk
"we're fl-"
"WE'RE FLYING YOU TO NEW YORK FOR CHRISTMAS!"
- peter interrupts and tony looks so defeated but YOU BARELY EVEN NOTICE BECAUSE YOU'RE SO EXCITED
- tony explains everything cause he worked it out with your parents (y'all are just gonna celebrate early)
- (tony doesn't say this but deadass the reason ur parents even let you is because they know how much you wanna go back mainly to see peter)
- eventually tony leaves the two of you alone to talk and you're just in your car in the school parking lot practically yelling at your phone as you and peter talk about how excited you are
"and you can finally meet may-"
"may!"
"yes, may! and we can go back to delmar's and see murph-"
"murph!"
- peter can't stop smiling cause you're so excited and you look so cute cause you're Trying Your Best to get out of the parking lot while maintaining excitement
"can we go see times sq- MOTHERFUCKER GET OUT OF THE WAY JESUS CHRI- sorry peter i didn't mean to explode"
- if anything that made you even cuter in his eyes
- you and peter facetime while you pack and neither of you can handle your excitement AT ALL
- the night before you leave you're both in your beds across the country just talking quietly to each other over the phone and it's like the quiet cute excitement because you're seeing each other in less than 24 hours and you're both so so whipped by each other and just Cannot Wait
- it's really late ESPECIALLY for peter since he's ahead of you but he doesn't care at ALL
- so y'all are just whispering to each other
"i'm so excited, pete"
"i know, me too"
"i'm not gonna know how to act"
"me neither. you're not allowed to make fun of how awkward i am, okay?"
"peter, you being awkward is cute"
- the two of you can barely sleep from excitement but you fall asleep (on ft ofc) with smiles on your faces
- as soon as you wake up you text peter and you're like GO GO GO (spinch🥬spinch🥬spinch🥬)
- you call him one last time while you're waiting at the gate
"i think i'm gonna pee myself"
"well if you do at least clean yourself up before i get there"
- his LAUGH
- the boyish laugh that FUcking Ends Me
"i'm still so amazed at how i managed to convince mr. stark to let me pick you up"
- you can't stop smiling especially at the thought of peter DRIVING (hot as FUCK)
"you'd better be a good driver, peter"
"it's fine, the car has autopilot so we won't die"
"glad to hear it, pete- oh sHIT my plane's boarding"
- peter FREAKS OUT
"have a safe and amazing flight and text me when you land, okay?"
"i will peter, thank you. see you in new york"
"see you in new york"
- y'all say that in the most Giddy Way (literally how could you not)
- you're bouncing in your seat the whole flight and the dude next to you is like o_0
- the SECOND you land you text peter
y/n: IM HERE IM HERE WE JUST LANDED ILL BE OFF THE PLANE IN A FEW MINUTES
- peter's sitting in this Far Too Expensive Car and he's just bouncing in his seat cause he has so much pent up energy
- he gets the text and that's when it really settles in
- he starts freaking out a little and like constantly checks himself in the rearview mirror and starts playing the playlist the two of you made together (puppy eyes) and makes sure he smells good
- then he sees you walk out out of the airport looking really excited and tired and confused
- mans JUMPS OUT OF THE CAR
"y/n!"
- you see him and ur literally smiling SO HARD
- you run at him, suitcase flopping around and backpack nearly falling off of your shoulders
- but you look so cute and peter can't handle it especially when the two of you finally make contact and your arms wrap around him
- he squeezes you so tight and even lifts you off the ground cause he's Strong and Excited
- that sounded a bit sexual OOPS
- you can't even process the fact that you're finally back in peter's arms after half a year and now you're literally so much closer than you were when you left new york last summer
- when you pull apart you can't stop looking at each other and just smiling giddily
- your arms are still like holding onto each other
- what finally breaks you is a fucking Ungodly gust of wind and you're like
"holy shit winter here is a lot colder than cali"
"oH, right, uh we have blankets in the car"
- the two of you just take another few seconds to look at each other until it gets a bit awkward and you clear your throats
"i can take your bag?"
"yeah, thanks"
- you watch his muscles flex as he lifts your suitcase into the back and you're like i hate this man
- this GENTLEMAN even RUNS OVER TO YOUR SIDE AND OPENS YOUR DOOR FOR YOU BEFORE YOU GET THE CHANCE
- you MELT
- when you sit down he closes the door for you and you're hit with the sound of your shared playlist and the car smells like peter's scent and it's AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
- when he gets into the driver seat (which was very attractive to watch) you're just staring at him excitedly
"you put on our playlist!"
"why wouldn't i?"
- he smiles at you before reaching back and getting the blankets for you, also turning on your seat heater to make sure you're comfy
- mans just watches you as you shift around, buckling in and getting your backpack situated at your feet
- by the time you're all ready and stuff you look over and he's just looking at you
"pete-"
"would it be too soon for me to kiss you?"
- AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
- it takes you a second to process but you're like OH MY GODKFSDKNFSK
"yeah, peter, it would"
- your serious tone RUINS PETER
- HE'S LIKE OH MY GOD WHY DID I ASK THAT WHY DO I EXIST
- until you laugh and wrap a hand around the back of his neck, pulling him to you and planting your lips on his
- (AAAAAAAAAAHDKSJDFHSKJDFBKSDJGNSDKJFNADSJKABBJFS)
- bonus: the two of you are just singing in the car and (peter looks so hot when he's driving anyways) peter suddenly goes silent and you're like "what" and he just glances at you before going "is it bad that i really want to pull over so i can kiss you again?"
- double bonus: he pulls over and y'all makeout LOL

howdy folks! this is overdue and not very well organized because i was woefully unprepared for opening so please bear with me! you can call me nat (she/her). this isn’t my first time at yangwon but this is a new muse - call him taewoong or woong if you’re close to him. he’s twenty five, a riding instructor at sweetgrass stables, and the p1 canon! i have a profile and a bio page up for him if you want to know more, but no plots as of yet (i’m working on it!). i’ll drop some quick info under the cut, but please like this post if you want to plot and i will hop on over into your ims (‘∀’●)
EDIT: I’M BOOBOO THE FOOL AND FORGOT TO MENTION BUT I HAVE A DISCORD IF YOU WANT TO PLOT THERE... JUST ASK...
ABOUT:
like i mentioned, part of the park family - they own and operate sweetgrass stables so it should be fairly obvious that horses are a big part of his life
grew up in yangwon, caused havoc with his friends (jk, but he wasn’t the best behaved kid growing up. boys will be rowdy and all that). generally got away with a lot of shit because (1) he’s a park and (2) by sixteen he was a kind of a local celebrity
o yeah that’s right, has been riding since he was a kid, trained to be a horse jockey, participated in his first race at fifteen and never looked back. wracked up a bunch of wins and public recognition for the town which is why a lot of the locals had soft spots for him regardless of whether he deserved it or not
attended baeksu after graduating from high school but took longer than the standard year to finish his race horse groom training certificate mostly because he’d frequently miss class for training and races! also his grades sucked
people think he went ~*bad*~ in the city because he met a girl there and got her pregnant. then (and this is the BIG SCANDAL) he and the girl decided not to get married because they didn’t like each other that much. also he was super young and didn’t want to be tied down at the time
his parents were super pissed and like, generally tried not to let the whole fiasco reach town but it did. so... his daughter is an open secret around town though stories surrounding this whole situation vary
(also basically people are like how did a good boy go so wrong... he was one of yangwon’s eligible bachelors... why this)
anyways, juggled his career and infrequent visits to see his daughter as best he could but was still kind of flighty and irresponsible and drunk on his own importance? spent little time in yangwon because he was always travelling
reality check came in the form of his beloved equine companion passing away x actually the full story is really traumatic and he refuses to talk about it but if you google his final race you will see... retired from the sport after that and moved to yangwon full time to help out at the stables
decided he wanted to like, grow up and be more responsible and what not so he agreed to take care of his daughter while her mother went back to finish her degree at a university in seoul
his daughter is super cute btw her name is boram, she’s five, and she started kindergarten this year. she’s a little bit on the quiet side because she still isn’t used to yangwon and her new family but she’s really sweet and once she’s comfortable around you she can get really sassy. she loves horses like her dad...
tl;dr weird horse boy became good at racing and thought he was the shit, got a girl knocked up but didn’t wise up, now he wants to be a good responsible dad
neighbourhood grandmas and aunties are into that, and now they’re like hmmm maybe we need to... play matchmaker! let’s find him a wife (meanwhile he’s screaming inside)
PERSONALITY:
he’s generally like, a pretty nice and laid back person, doesn’t get riled up or bothered easily unless boram is involved somehow. he can be really protective over her but he’s chill otherwise. he’s open-minded, not adverse to newcomers. in fact, he’s happy to show people around yangwon and takes pride in the town. also genuine, sincere, sucks at lying like he gives himself away immediately
trying his best to be more responsible but still has this streak of like, childishness in him that rears its ugly head sometimes. also stubborn and hates asking for help so sometimes he creates more headaches for himself that necessary but he’s very much a ‘it’s my mess, i will fix it’ kind of person
fun loving, excitable, impressionable - a little less so thanks to boram’s influence (he’s struggling to be a good role model) but sometimes he just stares mournfully at his old friends when they’re hitting up the bar like take me with you...
LOVES the outdoors, loves staying active, hates being stuck inside doing nothing because it kills his vibes... trying to instill the same kind of drive in boram and she humors him most of the times but sometimes a girl just wants to stay in and play with her dolls, you know?
avoids conflict like the plague, will literally ghost you irl rather than get into an argument. also kind of bad at talking about his feelings as a result like emotional communication is not his strong suit. also despite the fact that he is competitive as shit, he can be pretty passive when it comes to like, fighting with someone... will accept blame, try not to fight it, yeah he sucks x
he’s trying to be a good boy brent and some days he almost succeeds... jk despite his scandal(s) a lot of people around the neighbourhood actually love him because he’s low key charming and winsome and they can see he’s turning his life around. but how long will this last... (dun dun dun)
wow i said this was going to be quick and it’s not
anyway hmu let’s plot something out! ♡
#yw:intro#( * out of cookies )#( i rambled so much i'm sick )#( i'm SICK of myself )#( okay anyway please plot with us )#( i will give you my whole heart )

And so I continue on my epic re-read of that nonsense royalty AU mixed with a teen movie except gayer-- uh, I mean, Misadventures
Chapter 6 here we go
I already remember that when I wrote this chapter I wanted to throw my laptop out of the window because it was impossible, so now I’m scared
Kim actually doing exercise in this fic was me directly calling myself out for lazing around all day
He tries to get out of detention by pulling the “but I’m a prince!” card ashfskdjhkf that won’t work on Lady Mendeleiev!!
Speaking of, I’ve had Ms Bustier called “Lady Caline” in this thing but Mendeleiev’s still referred to by her surname? Can’t remember what I was thinking tbh
Kim you dumb idiot, the nobles aren’t moving out of the way because you’re royalty, they’re moving out of the way because MENDELEIEV IS WITH YOU
Ohhhh my god stop accusing your own classmate of murder, I think Alix would have much more than a detention if she’d fricking killed someone
Sidenote: Alix did not deserve detention. The rules didn’t say anything about rollerskates so she did nothing wrong and this was very unfair
And there’s me showing off how much research on cobras I did lmao
...I’ll be honest, 90% of the reason I wrote this fic was because I wanted Kim to have to walk with a book on his head
goddammit you know when you notice symbolism in your writing that wasn’t there before? this fic is hecking doing it already. striking a BALANCE between being a stupid idiot and being a thoughtful goodbean is legit a running theme in this thing, and,, that’s,, their detention,,,sdskgkjf
I’m the noble who fell off the balancing beam. it’s me
Kim... I’m going to hit you on the head with that book I s2g STOP BEING A JERK
the symbolism gahhh I’m dying, he needs to be more patient and less reckless just like his life skjdhksjd sjdghbsjfhsk laksjflad
How did Mireille end up in detention, you ask? Simple. Aurore framed her. Those two have a real hecked up relationship in this thing and oh boy it’ll take a front seat in the sequel if I ever write it
well dammit now I ship Kim with Mireille I mean they held hands
“If someone doesn’t get over here to help me finish this stupid thing right now, I will throw this book at someone’s face hard enough to send their teeth into the back of their brain.” pls... alix... hit ME with the book I’m begging you
I’m. having an allergic reaction to Kim’s crush on Alix. I know what happens later in the fic and I’m already breaking out in hives
Chapter 7 is called “90% chance of death” which is an accurate statistic to describe the mortality rate of reading it
I MADE A NINO AND POTATOES REFERENCE OH MY GOD I TAKE BACK EVERYTHING BAD I EVER SAID ABOUT THIS FIC, IT’S PERFECT NOW
This reads like a game of Civilization and yet I hadn’t even played it yet at the point when I wrote this part
MAX W O W HAVE SOME FAITH IN KIM OKAY, HE’S A DICK AT THE MOMENT BUT HE’LL GET BETTER
And Kim stop trying to be tsundere, you’re so bad at it. everyone knows the real tsundere in this fic is Alix,
There’s me showing off about knowledge I learned on wikipedia again
“That would be the coolest way to die. Agonizing death by snake bite. I would love that.” Juleka you can’t just SAY that to Alix oh my god do you even know what happens in chapter 25???
Kim being good at archery is 100% a shoutout to Dark Cupid btw also he’s a sagittarius like me and I’ll fight you on this
Max just got bored and straight-up left the sports day lmaooo that’s the biggest mood
I can’t wait for chapter 60 where the Other sports day happens and it’s like the total inverse of this one
YES ALIX, GO OFF
she’s highkey lying. she cannot order someone’s execution, she may be a pharaoh but she really doesn’t have much power lol, she just pretends she does so people will let her do what she wants
only chapter 7 and Kim’s already crying over something dumb (aka the threat of being eaten alive by a venomous cobra)? nice
“I guess me suddenly storming in here and lowkey threatening to kill you may have been overboard” uh yeah, you don’t say?? he kinda deserved it tho lmao
I love how Kim’s all like “ayy there’s plenty of other cute girls at this school for me to fall for!” when the two people at school he falls for next are both BOYS
alright chapter 8 now baby, and yes the title “Chick???” makes perfect sense in context I swear
Oh here’s one of those boys already! Kim’s crush on Adrikins is so damn obvious I love it
The umbrella scene happened except with a parasol
the whole “you four seem to make a good group” thing was me thinking how Marinette/Adrien/Alya/Nino is a god-tier ot4
oh god I want to hug Nath
OKAY OKAY SO. Nath and Alix don’t make friends until like chapter 44 or something, but the reason she knew already that he liked Marinette was because Juleka told her in the snek scene earlier, and then Alix used this knowledge to force people into giving her chocolate
Alya your gaydar is so broken... almost none of the girls in your class are straight
I’m also going to hug Alix, I know what it’s like to be a confused baby aro -- in fact I was at the time I was writing this skdjfhksdjhgkjf
Kim’s homework was just me typing out a bunch of intelligent-sounding words I remember seeing in Crusader Kings II tbh
MAX YOU PRECIOUS GAY BEAN, GIVE IT LIKE 20 MORE CHAPTERS OKAY
ohohoho chapter 9 here we go
noooo Alya noooo don’t trust Theo!!! you’ll find out why in like chapter 47 but just!! don’t trust him!!!!!!
Alya I s2g... of course Marinette likes girls, she’s bi af
Chloe and Sabrina are wlw too... please fix your gaydar I’m begging you
same with Rose, good grief, she really does love Juleka omg
I love how I called the kingdom of Couffaine “mysterious” and “distant” because I hadn’t decided where it was yet, because I’ll have you know that for the sequel I’ve decided it’s the non-distant and non-mysterious Orkney Isles
Alya just knocks on Juleka’s door like “YO ARE YOU A LESBIAN?” skdjhkjsdhg I’m sobbing
No Alya, Couffaine isn’t a morbid kingdom, Juleka’s just really goth. Couffaine is just like how Scotland really is lol
Kim wtf you can’t just ditch Max like that good grief...
and there I go teaching the readers about geography, because that’s definitely what normal people talk about in their conversations
Alix’s ringtone is definitely a rickroll by the way
I love that these characters are in fact completely aware that they’re idiots who should not be in charge of a country, what they’re unaware of is all that precious, precious character development heading their way nyehehhehehe >:D
Look... I know I said I was having an allergic reaction but hugs with height differences are Very Important to me so just this once I’ll let it slide
Phew, chapter 10, and then I’ll stop because holy shoot I need time to process the ridiculousness of this mess
oh my god Kim literally burning the letters his parents send him in order to avoid his responsibilities is?? such a mood?? I’m basically doing that myself right now
This is the only time Emperor Gabriel even has any lines until like almost the last chapter lol
anD IT’S FULL OF FORESHADOWING OH MY GOD ADRIENNNNN
btw Chloe’s oracle question was “will I marry Adrien?” and of course the answer was no, so that’s why she was upset lol (idk what Marinette’s question was, I didn’t think of one oops)
more geography lessons!!!
Max being irrationally mad at Alix’s country having a higher GDP than his was inspired by him being mad about losing the gaming tournament to Marinette in the Gamer episode, by the way
Alix... is a reptile scalie I’m gonna regret saying that aren’t I
I love how her oracle question is literally just a stealth “I’m aroace, right?” and that makes the irony of the next bit so much funnier omg, poor Kim lmao I was so so cruel
(also I finally fixed that inconsistency... Fu said he was 186, but technically everyone in this fic is about a year or two older than they are in the show at the beginning, so he should be 187 instead)
Kim has just accepted that he’s going to die young by doing something reckless and stupid, that’s such a gen z mood wow
I’m genuinely losing brain cells because of Kim right now, I’m contracting the bubonic plague as I type, I’ve already lost 3 years off my life and so has Master Fu,,,, ask a sensible question you idiot
No Kim, it won’t be CPR, she really will kiss you, you’ll just know okay... now if you’ll excuse me I need to go bang my head against a brick wall for several hours
#welp this is actually more entertaining than i remembered#misadventures#yeah i'll just tag it as that lol#random stuff

Some klance atla fic idea
Okay I found myself thinking of atla and vltron crossover again, and it got me thinking a little. So everybody likes to crossover with these three tv shows (Voltron and ATLA and LOK), usually making keith a firebender and lance a waterbender. Which is understandable because of their lions. But as you know in season 3 they have to switch lions, (Keith to Black and Lance to Red), so for some reason my brain went "Wouldn't be cool if they're bending abilites in the aus changed also" that was the part that got me thinking. So my addition to this aus is interesting (to me at least) For my rendition (for like a fic idea lol) Lance and Keith actually kind of switch places. Lance will learn fire bending and Keith growing up in the Air Nation (stick with me) As you know Keith and Shiro have a brotherly dynamic or at least Shiro was there for Keith when others weren't so you can't deny their close bond which is why I put Keith in the Air Nation. Keith is raised in the Western Air Temple which only had women but they made an exception to Keith seeing as he needed to hide (we can't baby keef die now can we?) Since there's a war going on that's the reason why Keith's father is there, to help the Western air nomads. Keith's Mom is a Fire bender while his dad is a Air bender. But since the war was going on (the timing of this is completely made up , lol ) Keith's dad decided to leave Keith with his mother and go back to help defend his nation (He didn't abandon them) In this Keith's mom is the sister of Ozai (Which will be Zarkon) (Lotor will be Zuko or something) Zarkon now (like he ever wasn't) is trying to destroy everyone (like the air nation *nudge*) Since Keith hasn't shown any bending abilities. Zarkon wants to get rid of him (for some reason). Of course Keith's mom would never let that happen and fled to the Air nation to find her husband. She was able to make in time and explained the situation to Keith's dad. Even though the Air Nation wasn't the safest at the moment it was better than the fire nation. Knowing she would probably not be able to see her son again, she leaves him her necklace (the stone in Keith's knife in vld) Keith is two when his mom gives him to his dad. Upon returning home Keith's mom was confronted by Zarkon, and upon learning she hid Keith, Zarkon sort of rage kills her (didn't see that coming did ya?~) Lotor happens to see this and is also filled with confusion seeing as he's only 8, and is just like wtf is happending to aunt...whatever her name is. As Lotor grows up he begins to realize the fire nation's true colors, and what really happened that night. Enraged from being tricked his whole life and full of vengeance for his little cousin and deceased aunt he vows to himself to find Keith and keep him safe. When Keith is 5 his dad and almost the whole air nation is annihilated. Keith vows to never to forgive the fire nation. (This is still in the past) Back in the Air nation Keith is able to grow up to (let's make it 10) he's already made friends with the air benders (he doesn't know that he's fire nation yet~) He's best friends are Pidge (7), Shiro (15) and Matt (14) One day Pidge's dad, Shiro and Matt went MIA when they were scouting (?) the Fire Nation.(They were captured, the dad is dead) They find Sam's body, but that's it. Leaving Pidge and Keith to mourn more of their loses, this only fuels Keith's hatred more. smol timeskip
Keith (still being in the air nation) gets upset easily since he just can't get air bending down, he along with some of the others think that he doesn't have any bending abilities. So Keith decides to train on something different, his combat skills. He figures out one day when the fire nation attack again (only leaving him and pidge left alive) that his necklace is dangerous (a fire bender almost chokes him with it) so he asks Pidge to help him put it (engrave?) inside of a knife (hence Keith's garla knife). Btw Rover is Appa, or more like Appa is now named Rover, (but Pidge isn't the avatar, lol). (They are 15 & 12 at this point) Keith and Pidge travel on Rover in hopes that they'll find Shiro and Matt one day. timeskip-o (Keith is 18 and Pidge is 15) One of the days they're travelling Rover gets tired and they decide to land on the closest land possible. Unfortunately for them it's all icy there. Rover is warm but you can only do so much against the wind, Keith is mostly fine but Pidge's teeth are clattering. He opts to holding pidge (very platonically). Pidge: "H-How are you s-so warm?" Keith *shrugs* "I don't know, the cold has never really bothered me." (*belts let it go*) Pidge looks at him for a moment before letting her thoughts roam. She knew Keith literally since she was born, but that doesn't mean there couldn't be a possibility of him being...She didn't even want to finish that thought. Shaking any thoughts that could form in her head she snuggled closer to her heater of a friend and drifted off to sleep. NOW TIME FOR LANCEY LANCE!! Lance and Allura are really close freinds who act like siblings and Coran is their crazy "uncle". Lance's family much like Allura's got destroyed by the fire nation, making them hate the fire nation. When Lance was 9, Allura 12 the fire nation came to their village killing most of the men, sparing some of the women (if they were non-benders). The water tribe decided to fight back and go fight the fire nation (Much like Sokka's dad did in atla). Allura's dad (Alfor was the head of the water tribe) had died in combat, along with Lance's father. They mourn and they grow stronger, becoming who they need to be for their tribe. Lance and Allura can waterbend, Allura a lot better than Lance (she picked it up faster) they are two of three left in their tribe who can bend. Coran is the third. Lance is determined to surpass Allura in waterbending and practices frequently, most people see him as laid back or carefree but he cares for the people he loves and will protect them with his life and he can't do that if he doesn't become stronger. His mom, his siblings, his father all gone, because he was to weak to help them fight. So he'll practice and practice to protect the ones that are still here to protect. (*sniff*) -- (This is where Keith and Lance see each other and the main plot kicks in...sorta)-- Lance is complaining to himself because Allura made him go patrolling by himself, which is fine he can take care of himself but it's really boring. He almost took Coran with him which honestly wasn't really saying anything since Coran was the closest thing Lance had to a friend (besides Allura) not that he minded. Lance is too caught up in thinking when he bumps into to something really soft and huge. Once he recollects himself he practically screams, wait no scratch that Lance does scream. Which alerts Keith and Pidge and within a matter of seconds he finds himself pinned against the ice, air knocked out him. He looks up at his attacker, he's beautiful (insert description of Keith, lol) and then he sees a...knife. Face blanching he quickly knocks the person off of him, and gets into a fighting stance. He more aware of his surroundings now and notices a girl that's with his attacker, his sister? they don't look alike. His girlfriend maybe? Keith speaks up and asks Lance why he's here, which leads them into bickering with each other. Lance: "Why wouldn't I be here, this is my territory!?" Keith: "Says who?" Lance: "ME!" Keith: "What are you two?" Lance: "Three and a half actually." Pidge is so done by this point. She had already figured out where her and Keith were, or at least assumed. The boy they have yet to get the name of clothes just confirm that assumption. They were in Water nation territory. Keith: "You woke us up screaming and scared Rover!" Lance: "What in the world is a Rover!?" Pidge: "Are you two done bickering or can we talk, now that we know we won't kill each other?" Keith & Lance: "NO!"
(I kind of got stuck, so the rest of this is bits of parts I've planned)
Pidge internally: “These two are idiots”
Pidge finally gets them to calm down (or at least stop bickering) long enough for her to ask Lance his name and what he’s doing out here. Lance is a little skeptical to answer her, like obviously those two pieces of information are too important to just throw around. So Lance asks her question right back at them. Pidge sighs and says they’re from Western Air Temple. Lance is of course still skeptical and asks Pidge to prove it, she does by bending.
Lance looks expectantly over to Keith but he’s avoiding his gaze. Pidge explains that Keith doesn’t have any bending abilities to their knowledge. Lance kind of pities the guy, which bristles Keith a bit, but he doesn’t comment on the look Lance gives him. Lance eventually introduces himself and tells them that’s he’s from the Southern water tribe.
Keith mockingly asks him to prove it, to which Lance responds with slapping some (a lot) of water in Keith’s face.
Pidge laughs, Keith looks pissed, Lance looks smug. Pidge and Keith eventually end up following Lance back to the tribe.
When they get there Lance is immediately "attacked" by Coran, who was crocodile crying into Lance’s shoulder. Saying how he thought he got kidnapped but the Fire nation and would have to come and rescue him. *cue dramatic hero pose*
This made Lance roll his eyes (playfully) he’s about to speak but gets cut off by Allura. Lance is in trouble now. Allura looked scary, he could practically see the dark aura radiating off her body.
Allura: “Where were you?”
Lance: “I was out patrolling like you told me to” he gives her this face that just screams “duh”
Allura: “I know that but why were you gone for so long?”
Lance: “I met these two” he gestures to Pidge and Keith who are standing silently (and Keith awkwardly) behind him.
Immediately Coran tries to intimidate Keith, but it doesn’t work of course.
(This is somewhere after they meet Hunk (earth-bender), and find Shiro and Matt) --In Ba Sing Se--
Lotor (24) sees a group of people, who look nothing like firebenders, except one. The boy had his black hair tied into a high ponytail, with his bangs down, framing his face. He looks just like...and just like that Lotor finds himself running, leaving his friends confused and shouting behind him. He found him, he exactly found him. His cousin, Keith.
Lotor: “I found you!” he says as he grips onto Keith’s hand, making Keith and the other’s startle.
Lotor: “I found you Keith.”
Now the rest of them really are on high alert, because not only did this firebender catch them, he also knows who Keith is.
Keith shifting uncomfortably: “Um, who are you?” he’s trying to act like he’s normal (he's failing).
Lotor: “Oh right! I guess you wouldn’t remember me since the last time we meet you were like two” Lotor mumbles the last part, but they hear him just fine.
Shirp steps in putting a hand on keith's shoulder: “May I ask who you are?”
Lotor senses the hostility their sending his way, but that was to be expected, he was a stranger to them after all.
Lotor: “I am Prince Lotor, Keith’s cousin”
The group is in shock and look over to Keith who is also in shock.
Keith: “B-But I don’t have any cousins, my dad never had any siblings”
Lotor’s face softens: “But your mother did, I’m sorry Keith.”
Keith stepped back from Lotor, and let the information sink in. His mom was a firebender, from the fire nation, and the sister of the firelord no less. He was a prince (would Keith be a prince?).
A fire nation prince. Keith’s face blanched, it made sense now. Why he was always warm, why he couldn’t bend air like Pidge or his father, because he that was only half of who he was. He was a firebender. Keith’s mouth was opening and closing like a fish’s. He felt like he was going to throw up.
Suddenly a group of firebendy-soldiers found them, Lotor cursed under his breath, and started to fight them.
Lotor: “You guys leave, I’ll hold them off!”
The gang was skeptical but didn’t need to be told twice and ran for it, unfortunately the it seemed like the fire nation had some earthbenders on their side, and the gang found themselves falling into a hole.
Hunk was able to part ways in the rocks and make a passage for them. Luckily it seems the earth and firebenders didn’t follow them in and if they did then they didn’t know where they are at least.
*Back to Lotor who isn’t able to fend them all off and the floor collapses beneath Keith and the gang*
Lotor: “No!” he screams as he sees Keith’s face disappear from sight. He found him and now he lost him.
Lotor to himself: “I can’t even save the person I promised to protect”
The rest of his team catches up and sees Lotor’s face, they know now that something happened and they were too late.
Keith is gone from Lotor’s sight once again.
*They’re stuck in a cave, Hunk fell asleep because of the panic and exhaustion*
Allura: “You’re a firebender? Not to mention a prince?!” not really a question. Allura looks betrayed and pissed.
Keith: “I swear I didn’t know” his eyes are downcasted.
Allura: “How could you not know!?”
Shiro and Matt touch Allura’s shoulder, hoping to comfort her but she shrugs them off.
Keith is silent, after all what can he say? He knew his mother left him went he was a baby, and he knew his dad was keeping something from him when he was alive. Now he finally knew his secret.
Everyone stares expectantly at Keith when he still doesn’t answer.
Keith shrinks away from everyone’s eyes it feels like he’s in a lion’s den and he’s slowly being eaten alive by their looks alone.
Keith looked at Pidge who also had to look to her, like she’d knew all along but also pitied him, and it kind of pissed him off.
Shiro and Matt both looked confused, but not angry, so that was a bonus.
Allura was straight out glaring and Lance had yet to even make eye contact with him.
It hurt.
Allura: “Did you trick us this whole time?”
Silence.
Allura: “Hoping that you could gain our trust then kill us off?”
Keith: “What?”
Allura: “Or maybe you were planning to make us your personal slaves, was that it?”
Keith: “No! I would ne-”
It didn’t matter how much Keith tried to explain he didn’t know, Allura just came back with another ludicrous accusation, and maybe it would’ve hurt less if the rest of his friends weren’t letting her do it.
Lance finally looked at him, his face was hard and devoid of emotion, but his eyes looked like he was sad, they looked like he was in pain.
Lance’s eyes had always captivated Keith, ever since the first day he meet the tan boy, but right now the pained blue orbs felt like they were piercing into him, but he can’t help to look at them. It’s like he’s drowning, he can feel his body shaking, and his breath start to quicken as he tries holding onto his consciousness. The only thing he can see is Lance’s eyes, and for a moment he thought he saw worry flash across them.
Lance taking a step forward: “Keith are y-”
And Keith blackouts. [There should be some sort of moment where Lance sticks up for Keith when's he's unconscious] Welp, this is all I got, feel free to add more, or write it if you're interested. Just credit and link it back to me if you do ^0^/

Mark My Words (Klance Soulmate AU) - Part One
Idk how this happened, i started writing this kind of accidentally BUT HERE, TAKE IT. I finished it instead of working on chapter 7 of Fate’s Predicament lol OOPS. I hope you enjoy it! There will probably be a second and final chapter btw :)
AO3
Wattpad
In a world where people are born with marks showcasing the first words they’ll ever hear from their soulmate, some people have common and beautiful words or phrases; others…not so much.
When Lance had come aboard the spaceship, he hadn’t even thought about what would happen to his soulmate.
But now that Hunk had voiced his own concerns, Lance became painfully aware of the mark on his leg. He was, like almost everyone, born with it, and it had grown along with him, stretching in tandem with his tanned skin, like a birth mark.
A faint “fuck you” imprinted in his inner leg.
He had been mercilessly teased for it. The fact that his soulmate’s first words to him would be “fuck you” made him both wanna laugh and cry.
The thing is…over the years, many people had said that to him. He knew he could get on people’s nerves, and, when he did, they sometimes gave him that less than articulated response. Especially his siblings. When in lack of a comeback just tell people to go fuck themselves, and all is right with the world.
So, as time went by, he kind of just tried to forget the words marking his body - and their importance.
Lance liked to live in the moment, and he believed that what was meant to be, would be.
But now…now he was in space - who knows how far away from Earth at this point - and had no idea of when he would come back, if he ever did.
He couldn’t help but think about it. What did his soulmate have tattooed in them? How did they feel about them? Were they looking for him? How were they doing? Were they drinking enough water? Had Lance already met them? If not, would he ever?
Not everyone ended up with their soulmates. Some people didn't even have soulmates, and they were okay with that. There were as many sad stories out there as there were happy ones. Some people simply found solace and love in someone else. Other people searched forever.
Maybe one of those two would be his case.
“Do you think we can be soulmates with aliens? They have marks too, right?” Hunk continued. “Maybe…maybe our soulmates are in the ship!” He gasped. “Lance! What if we’re soulmates?!”
Lance snorted. “Like you ever cussed someone out in your life.”
“Oh…right. And what if-”
“I don’t know, Hunk. What happens, happens. I think we’ll be fine.”
He didn’t think they’d be fine. Despite never having put too much thought into it, Lance would like to one day meet his soulmate. And all of this space thing just seemed to make it a lot harder.
He used to abuse the art of pick-up lines, which increased his chances of getting a “fuck you” as a response. If he did, he could feed on the hopes that, maybe, he had just met his soulmate.
Deep within him, he knew it didn’t make sense, since the person would probably recognize the line, but it still gave him that little bit of hope. Even if he always ended up disappointed.
It would be nice meeting his soulmate, but he had a gut feeling that he either already had or never would.
“I mean…my mark says ‘nor are you’. Isn’t that pretty weird? It’s so unusual! I wonder what they’re like…”
“Yeah…i wonder what mine is like, too…”
Keith entered the room, his attentive, violet eyes looking around.
“Oh, hey Mullet.” Lance greeted, smiling lazily.
Keith rolled his eyes. “Fuck you, Lance.”
“I know you wanna.” Lance winked. “Oh, come on, i was trying to be nice!” He laughed when Keith glared at him.
Lance couldn’t catch the other boy��s blush as he had already turned around. "You do a shit job at it."
“Keith!” He continued, drawing out the ‘i’. “Where are you going?”
“My room.”
“You’re always holed up in there now.” He muttered.
“I guess.”
“Stay with us a bit. Why would you go there to just be alone like always? You can do whatever it is you’re gonna do there, here.” He paused and then widened his eyes. “…You can do almost everything here. Please don’t take that too literally.”
“I’m not you!” He blurted out, childishly.
“What? I totally get it, man. I just don’t wanna watch it.” He smirked, looking contemplative. “Well…”
“I’m leaving now.” Keith said through gritted teeth.
“Come back soon, and call me if you need any help!” Lance laughed.
“Again, fuck you.”
“You keep saying that! But i’m not like you, Keith, i don’t have to always be at it.”
“Lance…” Keith whined, exasperatedly, with his face buried in his hands and not knowing why he was still standing there, taking the jabs without being able to answer back. He felt paralyzed.
“Maybe you’re my soulmate!” Lance suddenly announced, eyes widened.
“What?!” Keith now stood straight as a board - which was somehow ironic -, all of his blood had suddenly rushed to his face and he felt dangerously light headed.
The other boy started laughing hysterically while Hunk just stared at the whole scene, looking at them like they were bat-shit crazy. “I’m kidding! Relax! You looked like you were gonna die from lack of oxygen!”
Keith spluttered. “It’s just- you’re ridiculous!”
“You guys are dumb.” Hunk deadpanned.
Keith sighed and finally found the strength to leave the room.
“What’s his problem?” Lance mumbled.
★★★
After dinner, they all gathered in the common room talking, like they often did.
“Well,” Shiro began after Hunk brought up the soulmate topic. “My soulmate mark is…pretty generic.” He chuckled. “'Hello’. But…i think that when the person does come along…you realize it. That it’s the hello you’ve been waiting for.” He discreetly glanced at Allura, who looked distracted. “I guess not everyone’s the same, though.” He finished, quietly.
Lance snorted. “My true love’s first words to me are ‘fuck you’, so…”
“You deserved it…” Keith mumbled under his breath.
“What?”
“I said mine is worse.” He answered, louder.
“Oh, yeah!” Hunk exclaimed. “You never talked about yours.”
“It’s not something i enjoy talking about.” He mumbled. “I never really wanted to meet my soulmate, it’s not something that particularly interests me.”
Because he was scared.
“How could you say that?” Lance asked, sounding almost offended. “I’d love to meet mine. Even if they’re probably kind of an asshole.” He snorted.
Keith rolled his eyes and sagged against the couch. “Wow, Lance, i bet you’d be a great boyfriend.”
“You know it, babe.” He winked.
Hunk laughed. “You two are always flirting, jeesh.”
“We’re not-!”
“Yeah, yeah.” Hunk interrupted. “Anyway, what does your mark say, Keith?” He asked, excitedly.
“I’m not telling any of you. You’ll hold it over me forever.”
“But-!”
“Nope.”
“You suck.” Lance deadpanned.
“Yeah, i do.” Keith smirked for a second before he realized what he had just said, eyes widening. “Uh…”
The blue eyed boy started laughing hysterically. “I can’t believe you!”
Keith wanted to die.
“I bet it’s some emo crap.” Pidge murmured.
“What’s yours, Pidge?” Keith rushed to ask, trying to ignore Lance practically crying tears of joy by his side.
“Um…well, uh…i don’t think it matters. I’m also not very interested in all that soulmate stuff.” She blushed prettily.
“Pidge!” Lance whined, sobering up. “Come on! If it doesn’t matter, why can’t you tell us?”
“Because it doesn’t matter!” She crossed her arms over her chest.
“Pidge! Please!” Hunk pleaded, drawing out the vowels.
“Yeah, come on!” Allura joined in, smiling.
She groaned, unable to resist their pleading. “Fine! I’ll tell you. But if anyone ever mocks me, i will end them. I don’t care about Voltron. I will kill whoever dares laugh.” She said all this while looking straight at Lance, earning her a nervous chuckle from the boy.
“Go ahead!”
“Okay, well…” She cleared her throat. “My soulmate mark is on my back and it says…” She grumbled. “…It says 'oh no, you’re hot’.” Pidge begrudgingly admitted, sighing.
Lance gasped and quickly hid his face in a pillow, doing his best to remain serious after she glared at him fiercely.
“Does…does that mean-” He had to take a deep breath. “Does that mean your- your soulmate is a meme lover?”
“It might not have anything to do with memes!” She snapped.
“Hey, you should be happy!” Said Hunk. “Your future lover finds you attractive.”
She scoffed. “Yay.”
“Allura, what’s yours?” Shiro asked.
“Well…” She sighed. “My mark says 'hi’.” She laughed bitterly. “The Universe wasn’t very imaginative…”
“Do you think there’s any chance you’ve already met them…?”
“I’m not sure…I’ve never felt that strongly for anyone…I’ve never felt that 'a-ha!’ moment, you know? But…i guess it’s possible. Many people have told me 'hi’…maybe i should’ve been paying more attention.”
“Yeah, i get that....” He mumbled.
“Ah!” Coran sighed, upon entering the room. “I very much enjoy talking about soulmate marks! It’s so interesting! Sadly, my soulmate died along with Altea…” He smiled sadly, trying to hide how much it truly affected him. “But she was wonderful…my mark says 'I love your eyes’ and hers said 'wow’.” He laughed wholeheartedly. “She was lovely…”
They talked for a little while longer until Keith stood up.
“Well, i’m going to my room.”
“Yes, again. Go to your hole, then…” Lance said bitterly.
“Quit whining. If you miss me that much, join me.”
“With pleasure.” The boy grinned.
“Goodbye!” Keith said a little louder than necessary, bolting to safety.
When he was already out of the room, they could still hear him scream “You better not actually come, Lance!”.
★★★
It was a little past midnight when someone knocked on Keith’s door. He quickly got up and opened it, ready to jump into action.
A casual looking Lance stood on his doorway.
“Ugh, what do you want?” He asked, groggily, his brain rapidly going back to sleep now that he knew everything was fine.
“What does your soulmate mark say?” Lance asked rather seriously.
“I- what? Why do you care so much?”
“I need to know…for- for science.”
“Oh my God, you’re such a dork.”
“And you’re an annoying emo. What’s your mark say?”
Keith sighed. “Can we not have this conversation now?”
“Why do you have to keep it a secret?! It can’t be that bad. Are you just trying to keep your broody, mysterious image?”
“Sure, let’s go with that.”
“Keith! Why can’t you just tell me?!” Lance snapped, entering the room.
Keith closed the door and groaned. “And why do you have to know?!”
“Because i do!”
“Why?!”
“What if we’re soulmates?!” Lance screamed, before gulping, seemingly calming down. “What if we’re soulmates, Keith? I’ve been thinking about this subject a lot more lately, and…what if? You know?” He sighed, sitting on the unmade bed.
“I- uh. I don’t know.”
“I just don’t understand why you wouldn’t share it. Like…i know we’re probably not soulmates, since you hate my guts, but…i don’t know what i expected coming here. Can you just forget this ever happened? I need to go back to sleep, this is all just sleep deprivation.” He laughed tiredly.
Lance got up but Keith stopped him. “Wait.” He gulped. “Why would you think i hate you? You’re the one who seems to hate me.”
“Why would i hate you?!”
“Why would i?!”
“Well-” He sighed again. “I don’t know…”
“Exactly." Keith answered more softly. "Look...i know i don't really show it, but i- i kinda don’t dislike you, i guess." He grumbled, quickly facing away.
Lance tried to grin cockily at that, but he couldn’t hide his flustered state. “Psh, you love me!”
“Shut up, nerd.” Keith turned away, not wanting the other boy to see his terribly red stained skin.
“Well, i don't dislike you either, if we're being honest.” Lance grumbled. “And…i respect your decision to not talk about your mark. Sorry i came here and basically attacked you…i’m just not in a great place right now.”
“Thanks.” He gulped. “I- i get it. And it doesn’t mean i’ll never share my mark with you. All of you. I’m just not ready yet. But, uh, if you need to talk about it…”
“Thanks, i’ll be fine though. In any case, goodnight.” He turned to leave.
“Yeah, goodnight.”
After Lance left, Keith sighed and let himself fall on his bed, thinking about his mark and all that it implied.
He thought back to the moment he’d first met Lance at the Garrison. The annoying boy had strode over to him and stuck out a hand. “Nice mullet. Do you also ride a Chevy?”
Keith had immediately recognized the phrase as the mark he had on his thigh, but his instinct had still been deadpanning a well deserved “fuck you” to which Lance had scoffed before actually presenting himself and leaving after being rewarded with Keith’s silence, seeing as he was still too busy making sure his heart wouldn’t leap out of his mouth.
He sighed and closed his eyes. How funny that fate had brought them together like that. Despite being scared, the boy knew he should let Lance know one of these days. Maybe he’d actually recognize the line. But for now Keith preferred to deepen their friendship and get used to it. He needed more time to fully accept it.
He ran his hand on his left thigh, where he knew the small mark was, imagining a better future. One where he wasn’t so afraid.
Part 2 coming soon!

This first bulk ask is for Music Anon as you sent me your reactions while reading and I LOVED THEM SO MUCH. Under the cut!
Anonymous said to enaasteria: March 30th 2018, 6:51:00 pm · 4 hours ago But what happens after 18 T_T?! Do we send them off to happy ending AU? But okay I can’t wait to see them being all fluff balls like omg I need fluff after all that angst (though I do love angst but they deserve their happy)! Btw, I sent you a message about a song that reminded me of chapter 11. I was just wondering if you’ve received because I remember you saying your inbox eats your messages sometimes :)
18 is the epilogue. It really is just a cute scene I have in mind that I want to write out that gives insight into what their life is afterwards. And yes!! the music ask is in my inbox. I’m saving it for when I can really focus on the lyrics. My brain is a bit loopy right now from finishing 17 so I want to take my time and enjoy the music you sent. I’ll definitely listen to it tomorrow morning when my brain is refreshed~~~!!!

Okay I saw that you enjoy messages while we’re reading so I’m going to send you a lot of annoying ones which will make you sick of me. I’m at the scissors part and can I just say CHANYEOL? WHY?! DO YOU NOT READ THE ATMOSPHERE. IT SHOULD BE SEHUN AND AHRI ALL TANGLED UP AND PRETZELING, NOT YOU AND SEHUN!! Buuuut awwwww the hand holding. SOFLUFFYLIKEABUNNY. I literally had to wear my pyjamas and run to bed so that I could enjoy it in my most comfortable position. Back to reading! - musicanon
I’m gunna answer all of your individual messages personally because I LOVED READING EVERY ONE OF THEM. THEY WERE THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY NIGHT MUSIC ANON. THEY REALLY WERE. OMG. I had to rewrite this part so many times because I couldn’t figure out how to get Sehun and Ahri to the bathroom scene. The flow was completely off and I was like---let me try having Chanyeol being a fidgety mess and grab Sehun all over the place and voila. LOL
Ended the intense haircut session xD! I love the way you describe scenes in which Ahri cradles Sehun’s face. It’s so intimate and loving. I also love how both haircut sessions in the story kind of depicts how Ahri is letting Sehun into her world. But this time, he wants to venture deeper and she also wants him to come closer. So much has changed! Did Sehun read a manual on perfect boyfriend 101 because damn boy, you’re giving Ahri (and me) heart attacks! STAYINYOURLANE.
YOU NOTICED. YASSSS. When he kissed her inner wrist LIKE. PLEASE @ LORD. PLEASE BLESS ME WITH THIS ROMANCE IRL. I NEED THIS. EVEN HALF OF THIS ROMANCE. I ain’t a greedy lady but I just want some heartfelt moments like this. Haircut session. My hearteu. Side note---I really need my bangs cut. Where can I get an apt Sehun to cut my hair??? BUT SNIFFS. This is how I see Sehun being with the person he loves. I really think he would dote on her and really love her to the extent of his capabilities. It just makes me go uwu.
Btw, Soi being like are you sure you’re done reminds me of the scene in Black Panther where T’challa is having his fam reunion and M’Baku is like YAWN are you done? Are you done?! Cracks me up!
OMG. BLACK PANTHER. You are just about my favorite anon. Thank you and let me love you forever and ever.
Oh dear lord, I hope Yua’s work troubles weren’t the ones you were going through (or something similar)? Also, I hope you weren’t referring to your cousin x_x. But of course, if you were then SHAME ON ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO DO THIS TO YOU. You’re like Ahri though! Strong and elegant in her way of dealing with things <3 Soi’s desire to smush the lovebirds together perfectly describes my own. I always think of the NOW KISS meme whenever Sehun and Ahri are in close proximity. JUSTKISSCOMEON - ma
Every work trouble I really did go through. I write a lot from experiences so this whole chapter encompasses a lot of moments I dealt in real life. The work, the 23 hr straight shift, the glass frame and rewriting it. All happened. But it’s also a reason why I quit so now life is a lot better without those leadership boogers. WHAT IS THIS MEME YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT AND WHERE CAN I FIND ITTTT???
How funny would it be if Ahri playfully called Sehun Monsieur and Sehun launches into full French mode like Bonjour oui oui mademoiselle (my last French lesson was 15 years ago. it’s been awhile xD). Ahri be like dafuq I’m out - ma
Ahhhhhh my dearest music anon. She would straight up respond back in fluent french and let him live out his wildest dreams PUAHAHAHAH
TIE SCENE SO CUTE *hearteyes* I can imagine it playing out in my head!!! I have to applaud Ahri for being able to tie it on someone else. I can only tie it while it’s on my neck, loosen it and give it to someone else. And lol, of course Mr Perfect Boyfriend has the ability to somehow make his gaze softer on command xD. Ahri bby, how are you not melting. SOI?! YOU JUST SAID YOU WANTED THEM TO KISS AND NOW YOU’RE INTERRUPTING THEM. For a good reason. BUTSTILL. Just wait 30 seconds!!! - ma
RIGHT. This chapter made me CRY A RIVER AND IM STILL A MESS. And Monsieur Oh is adept with his facial structure and actions and can be any man you want him to be. You want sturdy burly Sehun. You got it. Soft, cherub Sehun? NO PROBLEM. He can do it all!!! But honestly I would melt too and she sort of does. Eventually LOOOOL But to Soi’s defense, she just has terrible timing. HAHAHAHA She’s my baby. I love Soi. I love Yua. I love Ahri. I love Yumi. I love all my girls.
Ohgod! Poor Ahri for having to do all that name writing! Sehun is right. She’s got this! But you’ve perfectly described me whenever I make a mistake in my writing. I’m like FFS I NEED TO REWRITE THIS WHOLE THING. That’s why I like pencils because rubbers exist. Look at Ahri getting all turned on by Sehun’s knife skills *waggles brows* it’s like her artistic rendition of lumberjack Sehun. I bet Sehun is already planning their wedding. Crossing mirrors off the list or else the missus would cry -ma
This was another one of the scenes where I wrote from experience. I was helping out a wedding and this bride made her seating charts just as I described. Her wedding was outside and it was windy and it knocked over one of the seating charts. I had to rewrite all those names and it was such a PAIN IN THE BUTTTTT. OMG ARCHITECT SEHUN WOULD BE SO HEUNGNNGNGNG. She goes and visits him at the office while he’s drafting a building. AND SHE JUST LOOKS AT HIM AND ITS HIS TURN TO ASK HER, CAN YOU LOOK AT ME LESS INTENSELY PLEASE, AHRI. IT would be just cutest.
CONGRATS TO THE BRIDE AND GROOM! Dude I can’t believe you forgot her name. I don’t do this at all *rolls eyes and acts self righteous* btw, I didn’t know about the least to most important bridesmaids/groom thing! It actually made me laugh because if you’re asked to be one, you know exactly where you stand in the ranking xD. ASDFGHJKL. HANDHOLDING. FITTING PRECISELY IN ALL THE EMPTY SPACES IN BETWEEN. WALKING DOWN THE AISLE. That’s it. They’re officially married in my mind. No arguments! - ma
Seunghyun and Lia’s meeting was actually how I met my husband. He didn’t remember my name actually but I remembered his and it was and still is how I torment him LOOOOL. It’s not really least important to most important. I just did it for writing purposes but it’s your wedding. Sometimes people just place people in certain spots based on their height LOL. AHRI AND SEHUN. MARRIED> I DEAD.
Oh Chanyeol, you finally have met your violent happy ending. He’s a pup in love! Very unexpected but I approve. Yeol and Ahri’s pact doesn’t stand because Sehun and Ahri just got married (and secretly stole Seunghyun and Lia’s thunder). OMGKEEPERS! ISEEWHATUDIDTHERE. Man Sehun, how does it feel listening to how you’ve been a dick to Ahri in KeepersAU (also early in ApartmentAU)? But he made amends so he will be forgiven. IS HE GOING TO GIVE HER JEWELLERY?! He said he wouldn’t unless ...! - ma
HE’S A PUP IN LOVE AND THATS EXACTLY WHAT HE ISSSSS. IT was never really a true pact to begin with. Just a joke to mess with Sehun that I added in and I don’t think Ahri would’ve ever went through with it tbh. She’s not the type to marry someone at all, if ever and even if she’s old and wrinkly, she wouldn’t marry someone if she didn’t wholeheartedly love him. AND YASSSS KEEEPEEPEPERPRRSSS. I’m glad you see it. I was really proud of this. I wove in so many stories for this chapter. My brain was about to burst. AYEEEE. WILL HE. WILL WE FIND OUT IF HE GIVES HER JEWELRY in 18??? We shall see.
I just died of fluff and I’m not even done yet. I had to take so many breaks in between reading by smushing my face into the pillow because my heart was bursting with cotton wool!! Not gonna lie, I wanted to smack Sehun for using >100 batteries. BE ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY BOY. Even if you’re in a fictional scene. But A+ for set up. The jar of longing is so sweet! BESTILLMYHEART. HAHAHA I CANT BELIEVESHE TOLD HIM ABOUT HOW SHE CLASSIFIES HIM! Married couple spilling all their secrets & kissing -ma
ITS SO FLUFF RIGHT? LIKE I CANT EVEN FIGURE OUT HOW I DID IT. I can’t even live right now because I’ve never written anything like this before. I’m more into darker stories where things are just pain and crying and tears and heart breaking torment. SO THIS WAS A 180 FROM WHAT I USUALLY WRITE. I hope it wasn’t vomit inducing fluff but IM SORRY. THE BATTERIES. Would it help if I said they’re rechargeable?????? AYEEEE. VERSIONS EQUATE TO CREATIVITY. Who knows, it might be a kink. OR. he could spend the rest of his life entertaining her with versions and asking her what do you call this one? how about this one? AHRIIII~~~~~~She would major regret this later on hahaha
Aw, I’m glad Ahri got to see the stars!! And promptly decided that she wanted to be with Sehun instead. Omg HAHAH. I was like how do you unofficially own a star? Did he call the international space agency or Spock or something and told them to fly a toothpick flag up with the names of Sehun and Ahri written on it xD? Btw are those star designations real? I tried googling but ended up with Supreme Court cases lol! Whenever Sehun tells stories that his father told him, and he says that (tbc) - ma
YES! You can can actually “buy” a star and “name” it. It’s definitely not official. It’s not like N*SA will recognize it but it’s just a sweet gesture and that’s why he said unofficially. The star designations I used aren’t real but they are formatted in that way. I had do research on this and it’s really long and windy and hard to explain because even my brain was like---i can not understand this. The letters are usually an abbrev of the telescope used to discover the star and the numbers are sometimes the year found or the date or coordinates. Like I said, really complicated science stuff so for the sake of fic writing, I just made it simple and put in some numbers that mean stuff LOOOL
And he says that it’s been passed down from generation to generation. I have this picture of ancient Egyptian Sehun wearing the Pharoh headgear in my mind telling his son about how KeepersAU Sehun was a dick and how he should cling to a girl called Ahri when he meets her xD! HE IS SO SMOOTH IN THIS CHAPTER. I spilled tea on myself so many times while reading. Can I just say that the we are stars for eternity idea (unless they decide to be a supernova) is so creative and so fitting for them?
AHHAHAHAHAHAH PHARAOH SEHUN. IM DED. OMG. I will never forget this memory and look. Another version of Sehun to make me want to die in a pile of fluff. And tbh---I really imagine Sehun coming to Ahri’s classroom with the kids all around him. Ada. Joon. They’re all around him in a circle as he tells embarrassing lovey dovey songs about Sehun and Ahri and it just makes me smile soooo much. ISNT IT. I HAD THIS IDEA FOR 3 YEARS AND I FINALLY WROTE IT OUT AND IM SO CRY TEARS OVER IT???? But yes---no supernova. no kilonova none of that colliding and bursting together business LOL.
You are so incredibly thoughtful in crafting a sense of continuity and meaning for Sehun and Ahri <3. I think that’s why they are so addictive as a couple. Because we get to see the way they’ve grown, the way they accept the hurt they’ve inflicted upon each other and themselves but actually reflect on it and come out stronger. I love the honesty and kindness they’ve shown each other in this chapter. How they’ve come out of hiding to show that they do indeed love the other. - ma
THANK YOUUUUUU. OMG. THIS REALLY IS SO SWEET. Your messages made me so much and I’m addicted to them as well. They’re like my babies and I just want to give them all the happiness to make up for all the pain I put them through.
I loooove the parallel scenes between this chapter and the previous ones because this time, their words and actions mean something deeper. I wish I was as eloquent as you are because I don’t have words to describe how beautiful they are together. They are so in love and I’m in love with them being in love *_*! Casually throwing myself in their relationship. I’ll be waving pom-poms in the bushes where they can’t see teehee! Can we have a reincarnation AU based on the last line xD? - ma
AHHHHH IM NOT ELOQUENT AT ALL. I really fail at words and I might reread to fix some things but YESSS. I’m all about parallels. I love making full circle of things to make sure it all ends cleanly and making sure they’re not who they were but better people now. REINCARNATION AUUUUU. MAYBE. MAYBE. I have a few reincarnation prompts saved so I might dig into them and may something will spark???
Thank you thank you thank you for writing this absolutely brilliant story <3. I know nobody is as attached to Sehun and Ahri as you are but we’ve all loved them together for the past three years. THEY ARE LIKE OUR BABIES! I teared while reading 17 T_T. I can’t let them leave the nest. They need to stay within our arms forever!!! How many thank yous can I say before you want to hit me? WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU? You’ve blessed us with this story and I only hope I could do something in return. - ma
THANK YOU FOR STICKING WITH ME. I’m not sure how long you’ve been with my blog but if it’s been 1+ years or even from the beginning, I really want to thank you for your patience. I know I’m not the quickest writer out there but I’m nevertheless so grateful for your words. For your sentiments. For all that you’ve written for me to make me smile. THESE MESSAGES ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH AS GRATITUDE. I really love how you reacted to them and I couldn’t be more thrilled. Nothing makes a writer happier than reading messages like this and seeing how you loved this story and cherish it as much as I do.
Okay, I’m probably getting annoying by now. so this is the last one I swear (also because tumblr is being like WHOA WAIT AN HOUR BEFORE ASKING MORE. So I’ve had to switch my WiFi mode on and off so that it doesn’t recognise me as the same person). I’m just gonna reread the chapter again and again, and again tomorrow and again and again. Thank you for this masterpiece. suffice to say, I more than love it so don’t you dare think that it’s anything short of fantabulous! throwsheartsatyou - ma
This is not annoying at all. You’re not annoying, MA. omg TUMBLR DOES THAT??? I never knew!!!! But really, thank you again endlessly for all that you’ve written. I appreciate it so much and I’m so happy you love this story. You are just the sweetest and I PROMISE TO LISTEN TO YOUR MUSIC RECS TOMORROW THE MOMENT I WAKE UP. hugs you. LOVES YOU. THROWS CONFETTI AT YOU.

so, it all started with my sister
i was literally dying from some sort of stomach bug, right after i had the flu! so i couldn’t go to school, but my mother was concerned something bad would happen to me while no one was home. so what was the bright idea we came up with? i would go to work with kailan at the day care! so that’s where i went for half the day until i was sweating and almost crying from pain and she took me home. but while we were there, i decided to confide in her. i told her i was dating elliot, and that whatever happened between us was over and said and done. all was forgiven and he makes me happy. she told me to not tell my mother whatever happens between elliot and i because my mother hold grudges. naturally, with her being my older sister, i trust her. but maybe i shouldn’t have.

i’m still sick- getting over that bug. elliot barges in my house, per usual, and gives me a hug and a kiss after school. he has to leave, he has his friend zach over and idk they’re going to elliot’s house to do boy things. i briefly meet zach which was a little awkward since i was in my matching snowflake pajamas. elliot leaves in a flash and i hop my sick butt back into bed and try to enjoy being sick as much as possible. i got my dog, i got my snacks, i got New Girl playing on my tv, i’m good. about 2hours later i get a text from elliot, “i’m coming over.” so of course i’m confused and panicked! i’m sick! he shouldn’t come over! and where is zach! zach was with him! elliot knocks at my door and he and zach are there! i asked elliot why he was here and he replied, “i need to take care of my baby girl! and i wanted to be with you, but i couldn’t leave zach” okay, weird. i didn’t need him. but now he’s here! so i mosey up the stairs and i resume my episode of new girl while i have two new accompaniments in my bed. after a while everyone get’s sleepy and we make some sort of pile on each other? zach is base, elliot is on zach, i’m laying on elliot. we all almost fall asleep, sitting in the dark listening to music or some video elliot wanted to watch. it was peaceful, and it was rowdy. it was an inconvenience, but also really sweet and fun. it was uncomfortable, but also cozy. i had the best time while being sick, i can’t lie.
my mother finds out, because of my sister’s second nature to gossip! so of course now my mother is beyond hurt that i didn’t tell her, and we get into an argument. a big one. a really big one. within a matter of seconds she’s screaming, telling me i’m stupid, she’s protecting me, and that elliot just isn’t worth it. she’s angrier than i’ve ever seen her. she’s upset that i’ve trusted kailan instead of her. “you can never see him, as long as i have anything to do with it.” so now i’m yelling and she’s yelling and we’re both crying. we’re trying our hardest to hurt the other person. “you’re not my friend anymore!” “well you’re not my friend anymore!”
somehow we get to the topic of my attempted suicide. i couldn’t even tell you the date. i know it was in the past year, in summer i believe. i took a bunch of pills, 18 melatonin to be exact, and a few regular pain killers. i’ve never had the chance to talk about it face to face with her. i was so angry at her for that and i didn’t even know it, because i don’t talk about things. i was infuriated with her for not noticing anything of course that’s not fair- i’ve been hiding all of my feelings all of my life. how was she supposed to know?
with talking about how upset i was with her for not noticing, she came to the conclusion that i resented her for pushing me to go with john 4.10.14. which i don’t
all in all- it got really emotional and a lot of things came up. we argued for 3hours.
i cried, and cried, and cried, and cried, and cried until my eyes were red and puffy. i didn’t think my eyes could ever get red because i’ve never cried that much.
needless to say, i didn’t sleep that night.
the next morning i woke up and sat on her bed while she got ready, per her request. it was silent. so silent. we just looked at each other, confused on how we could hurt each other so much. we barely spoke.
Saturday, January 21
i text elliot, which tears me up inside. why did i do that? i knew he was still with zach, he didn’t need to know what i was going through. he didn’t need to know, it was none of his concern. i don’t care if i was stabbed because i was dating him, i should suffer in silence and not worry him, but i know that’s the exact opposite way he thinks. so i guess maybe that’s why i texted him, i put my feelings of pride and stoicism aside and i opened up to him, because if he found out weeks later what i had went through it would crush him that i didn’t ask for help. of course he starts to worry, which immediately makes me want to distance myself because i feel like if i don’t talk to him at all it’ll make him worry less. i know my backwards logic and damaged emotions are wrong when it comes to situations involving people, so i continue. i tell him i don’t know where to start and that we should just talk later. i want him to enjoy his time with his buds. but of course he’s not having it. i didn’t know where to start, so i rambled and random things that upset me from the night before came out in no particular order. he tells me he doesn’t have a lot of time. i’m confused and scared because i spent my whole night crying, why am i still crying?! i repeatedly ask him how to get it to stop, but i get no answer. perhaps he doesn’t know either. he sends me a text that doesn’t surprise me in the least, everyone leaves. “i gtg i have to help a friend.” now what does surprise me is that as soon as i read that text, i hear my front door open and i hear his voice. (why is my front door always unlocked) he runs up the stairs, i quickly shut the door and try to wipe my face of any tears. i hear him at my bedroom door- “please let me in. i want to help, but i can’t help through this door.” i open the door. he sweeps me into the most lovely hug, and i felt safe. i sit down on my bed with him. i’m not even sure what i said, everything on my part is a blur, i only remember him. “my friends don’t need me” “you’re important to me” “i’ve got you, i’ll keep you safe i promise” “i couldn’t leave alone” “i want you to know that i will always be here” it was one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me- especially since i didn’t ask. i never o n c e hinted that i needed him or anything like that. he truly cares for me. i cried in front of him, and he was there. he didn’t leave me, he was there just like he always said he would always be. he wiped away my tears and told me i was strong.
i’ve never felt so loved, and secure. there is no way i could ever possibly doubt his love for me ever again. he’s a keeper!
you would think it ends there- but it doesn’t.
he tells me to “get dressed, i’m coming to his house” he says that he can’t leave me alone, but his friends are still at his house. his friends show up at my house and we walk back to elliot’s. i see his mother, i give her a hug. evie is beyond happy to see me, i let her take over my phone and download musical.ly. i follow her and we watch her videos and i laugh. i finally meet lulu, and boy oh boy do we get along well, it was lovely meeting her. everyone that i was nervous about welcomed me with open arms and i was so happy. i watch elliot and zach play battlefront and some basketball game. every few seconds elliot glances over to check on me and kisses my cheek. oh yeah and they made me play knockout- i like the tiny ball, it fits in my hands better. there was some point where we ended up laying together on the floor- i couldn’t pay attention to anything else in the room but him. how happy and safe he made me feel consumed me, it was like we were the only ones in the room. which is saying something because his younger brother was screaming very loudly while playing video games. i was resting head on his shoulder/chest and our faces were pressed together as we layed in an almost sleep like rest while whispering cute things to each other and giving each other kisses on the cheek and smiling.
btw i tried to lie to my mother but apparently she knew i was with elliot the whole day lmao
elliot walked me home
and i don’t know what changed my mothers mind but she called him back to the porch and made me go inside
she finally forgave elliot and likes him again!
elliot goes home and tells his mother we’re dating again
and everyone is okay? everyone is okay
i haven’t been this happy in so long

April 19: Thoughts on 1x11 We Are Grounders Pt 1
It’s late, I’m all upside down, and I just reread some of my old meta so I’m thinking about how Smart I am and also how bitter I am about this show. So here’s more of my rewatch!
Today’s episode, We Are Grounders Part One
I wonder if Jaha was so quick to throw up his hands and walk away from the DNR group in S4 because, especially prior to what was basically a religious conversion, he has a similarly strong death instinct himself. I’m not saying he didn’t do everything he could in favor of survival many times, but honestly how many other times has he been like ‘well, okay, tried everything, time to die’? Like compared to other characters? I’m not saying he actively wants to die so much as that he is more comforted than the average bear by the possibility of a ‘good death.’ (Also I think this has a lot to do with having lost his son tbqh.)
Note to self: someone I’m assuming is a station rep referred to her constituents.
An incredibly bleak but fitting ending for this show would have been to kill the Ark in S1 and then to have the delinquents and grounders kill each other in an escalating S2 war. It would have fulfilled certain foreshadowings/themes of the first season (all the war escalation stuff, the nuclear-age throwbacks) and it also would have been an appropriate ending for all these truly terrible, morally rotten people.
Literally Jaha v. Kane is Jasper v. everyone else (or at least, like, Clarke and Monty) in S4. Truly this show ran out of original ideas after 2 seasons, see again my previous point lol.
Speaking of Jasper there is my angular boy.
There is nothing about the delinquent camp I don’t like. Raven in like a council-level position, ish, Bellamy’s speeches and blatant emotion, everyone’s outfits.
I completely forgot Tristan existed.
I also forgot how many fake out main character deaths this show used to do. Abby, Finn. Can’t get away with that 4 seasons in. The audience knows anyone important is getting a real death scene.
Omg Bellamy has a whole like war plan with little figures and stuff.
Bellamy has this reputation for being all emotion and I think that’s him at heart but ignoring Clarke, Monty, and Finn’s disappearance is a logic-based decision. A sort of...overcompensatory logic-based decision. Also not in line with the show’s morality, like, at all. Hence why he drops it later.
Yet again impressed by how Jasper managed to change more than any other character over 4 seasons while still remaining IC. Even young and comparatively innocent he could be snarky and sarcastic and he also was honest and straightforward in his confrontation with Bellamy, and he kept on being all of those things later, but with bitterness and bite.
Murphy (having just obviously suffocated a boy): He stopped breathing. I was trying to help him. Jasper (nodding slowly): Yep, sounds about right, totally legit, lots of evidence that that is what went down. Yep.
Also I’m like 99% this ep is basically their last canon interaction so btw this was the end of what is absolutely, canonically (see the pilot and the Pike-class flashback) a same-station-forged friendship. And probably also explains why Murphy’s reaction to Jasper’s death was like ‘Jasper who???’ though that doesn’t make it any less an unforgivable sin.
There’s nothing not perfect about this scene overall, but the most perfect thing is “Tell Bellamy what?” coming from Jasper’s pocket. I love both that he tried to be sneaky and the comedic value of it.
TWO HEADED HORSE TWO HEADED HORSE TWO HEADED HORSE.
Lincoln was criminally underused. He not only saved Finn and Clarke, he “killed one of his own people to do it.” This isn’t about Octavia. He’s just been looking for an excuse to rebel his whole life.
Jackson’s being so lovely and supportive and Abby’s still calling him by his last name. Knowing this show they probably forgot it was his last name.
Today’s reminder that Octavia likes literally 4 people in the universe lol. And one of them was Jasper. Until the show forgot about that too but whatever not bitter.
RE: Raven getting in under the floor. I’m thinking about my fic and my work around for opening the dropship from the outside and okay on the one hand if such a device existed, Raven would probably know about it as much as Monty but on the other hand, there has to be a way to close the dropship from the outside, because it’s closed in S3 and there’s no one in it. So logically it should open from the outside too, without recourse to loose panels and stuff. So maybe I was a little, like, short-cut-y in my solution but the show is not consistent so we’re even. (We’re not even but I’m self-conscious now.)
Bellamy talking on the walkie with Murphy might honestly be the most beautiful he’s ever been.
Legit question: who do the Grounders battle? They have this coalition, with like Ambassadors and shit. Which doesn’t mean they can’t battle each other but there’s also some diplomacy going on, like, clearly. Which should make battling less necessary, one would think. And even if they do battle each other, over fucking what??? Land? Literally never seen solid evidence that land boundaries matter to them. Shits and giggles? Bragging rights? They have an enemy in Mount Weather but Lincoln sure as shit wasn’t fighting battles against them.
T100 drinking game: take a shot any time says ‘cauterize the wound. Take two if they actually cauterize a wound.
“We lost Clarke, we can’t lose Bellamy too” is probably the first indication literally anywhere in the show that anyone acknowledges Clarke as an delinquent leader.
I miss the Raven + Jasper dream team. Tbh Raven has so few people who can appreciate her professionally. It’s literally Monty, Wick for a hot second, and Jasper (even though his skills aren’t the same as hers, they fit with hers nicely).
I miss my alternate universe where Jasper lives but becomes pacifistic in nature, where he abandons this ‘give me something to shoot through’ attitude and eschews the use of weaponry entirely.
I don’t think this show is 40% as badass or sick as it makes itself out to be but every now and then it lives up to that ideal. I mean this extended psychological torture sequence in which Murphy makes Bellamy hang himself is super fucked up.
The young Jaha and Griffin families were adorable.
“If you were never [in the tunnels] how did you map [them]?” / “Spoils of war.” I realize this is probably just quick plot-hole filling but nevertheless I sense a story here.
The Reapers were also a sick and twisted invention of this show. I feel like in S2 it was pretty clear that the Reapers were given dead bodies to feed on, so either I’m wrong/the Mount Weatherians were more efficient in their use of their limited resource of Sky People bodies versus Grounder bodies/the show has bad continuity/that living dude in the cart is an outlier/some combo of the above.
“The Eastern Sea” lol. The Chesapeake probably.
I never cared for Luna but she could have been cool and also she and Lincoln are ex’s pry this headcanon from my cold, dead hands.
I’m pretty sure Finn pounding in the Reaper’s head was his first kill. Would his S2 story be possible without that moment?
“They look up to you. Almost as much as they look up to Clarke.” Okay I’m sorry, this is just textually, canonically wrong. This is the show retconning Clarke’s position as a leader. And it’s so unnecessary! Her story line works better if she isn’t positioned as the main delinquent leader, imo. Like, lines like that are outliers that don’t make sense within the universe; they’re obviously outwardly pointed: here audience, Clarke is protag 1 and Bellamy is protag 2 and she’s the REAL leader, don’t forget that order! If you do, you might occasionally question her leadership credentials later, when we lazily write everyone just following her regardless of their actual interactions with her or the most recent developments of her storyline! (Not that I think they were already setting up the laziness of S4 this early, but I do think they were tipping the hand of their own biases and their inability to tell the difference between what’s going on in-universe and what the audience sees and understands.)
On the other hand “Well I think the princess is dead, but I know the king’s about to die, so who’s really going to lead these people, huh?” is a good line and I do like positioning Bellamy as king (of these people specifically) versus Clarke as a princess (of the Ark--an old position based on a class background that is irrelevant to their current society).
Lol @ Murphy’s plans being delinquent-domination though. Like that was going to happen.
Actually I think Finn’s S2 story line is created in the moment when he washes the blood off his hands: he’s killed, which changed him, and Clarke comforts him in that critical moment, and he comes to associate her with that event and its aftermath. He also says “I should have fought for you,” which I see as this...hard to describe but like...the creation of a devotion beyond what he’s so far felt. Not that he loves her more but that he’s convinced himself he loves her more, that she can save him in some way, that she is necessary to him. He has a lot of idealistic notions and I think this narrative gets created within him with Clarke at its center and everything else gets blurred out. Or something.
This Jasper and Bellamy scene is the best because it combines two things I love: Jasper’s hero-worship crush on Bellamy, and Jasper’s intense devotion to Monty. I’m a little sorry that Clarke and Finn’s return/these loser Grounders robbed us of a Bellamy and Jasper rescue mission though.
I guess it’s possible Bellamy said “Whatever the hell we want” all the time but really I think it was just the one time and the writers have already forgotten that Jasper never heard him say it omg sometimes I just want to knock their heads together their memories are such shit. (Yes I’m also bitter about Jasper’s pilot outfit returning out of nowhere in S4 and Clarke wearing his intact goggles in S5 even though he already smashed the plastic out of the lenses sometime in S3.)
Poor Jasper. He thinks Monty’s come back with them. He barely even has time to process that disappointment before they start debating whether or not they should leave.
Basically I have a lot of Jasper feelings.
Bellamy’s speech is better than Clarke’s. Come on Griffin, never start with ‘my opponent is right’ that’s a bad rhetorical move. I also find it intensely unrealistic that they’re all like ‘yes, Clarke, we will do what you say!’ when, I cannot emphasize this enough, she has literally never led them before. All of her leader decisions have been strictly BTS. Her only real advantage here is that they know they have no gunpowder and few other resources, so it’s probably just a straight up fear-flight.
“Crowds make bad decisions. Leaders do what they think is right.” I mean basically the theme of the show there lol.
I’m going to rant about this next time I watch but just gonna say here that Clarke is definitely, unequivocally, ultimately wrong in this and Bellamy was right. They should have stayed. People literally died because Clarke tried to take them out when she shouldn’t have.
The camp doesn’t look like I expect or picture in my head...where are their tents? How much land did they claim?
I remember watching this the first time and thinking Jaha’s plan to get them to the ground on the Ark itself was the outright coolest thing I’d ever see and you know what? It holds up. I stand by it.
