In the Heart of Winter

Chapter 3

The Seiya family weren't far from behind the Lorcains and Nevrakis. Unlike the other families, who had four children, House Seiya had five. It would've been only four however if Mika had her way. The way she saw it, one of them didn't belong here amongst her children.

The oldest of them, following behind his father, was Akio. He was his father's spitting image and many thought, at least when Daimon was younger, that the two were eerily similar. Akio was tall like his mother but that was end all be all of his similarities to the queen of spring. His jet black hair was a tad unruly, but kept neat and clean. His clothing was very much the same as his father's, though his were more decorative with embroidered gold dragons on either side of his chest. He had been told to shave his growing beard before the ceremony but the oldest spring prine had refused, as he was very proud of his facial hair and wanted to grow it to be even grander than his father's. A competition for sure, but for once a rather light hearted one.

Behind him was his sister, Rika, who looked every bit like her mother. Like Akio, Rika wore her family's colors proudly. Her hair was kept down and was slightly windswept, but it only served to add to her beauty. Around her head she wore a silver circlet that was decorated with amethysts and silk purple flowers on the sides. Her hair was elegantly decorated with glass beads of purple and red, made to look as if she wore purple blossoms in her hair. Rika had thought of wearing a poppy somewhere on her person, but felt as though it would clash with the rest of her outfit. Much like her mother, Rika was very vain and took a lot of pride in her appearance.

Behind Rika, side by side, were her twin younger brothers, Makio and Motoaki. Their birth had been controversial as twins were rare for elves. Rarer still were identical twins. The poison queen had high hopes for both a son and a daughter, for political as well as social reasons. It was said the queen's disappointment in two sons was immeasurable. The boys were both long haired, thought Makio kept his a bit wilder. Makio had a slightly rounder face than his brother, and his purple eyes were framed with thin round glasses. Motoaki was rather boyish in appearance, with a strong build. He was young, but had already made a shocking reputation for himself. If rumors were to be believed, the youngest spring prince was already a womanizer and a drunk. He snuck out of the palace at night and started fights all for his own entertainment.

If that wasn't bad enough, he had been the one to give Leonidas Nevrrakis the scars on his cheek...

Behind the twins was the last of House Seiya, although she was the second eldest. Kyriake Seiya was a controversial figure in and of herself. She was known to most of Iorera as the Bastard of Spring, or the Poppy's Daughter. The Bastard of Ixose. She had many titles, most of which she strived to ignore. Kyriake was the daughter of Daimon Seiya and the very concubine it was said to have taken his eye. She was half summer elf on her mother's side, as her green eyes indicated. Furthermore, she also had chestnut streaks through her otherwise ebony hair. She wasn't as tight and in control as the others in her family and held herself with a quiet air of confidence and humility. She had refused to wear a poppy anywhere on her person, opting instead to wear an amethyst around her neck.

An amethyst that wsas once believed to be her father's eye.

The children of each house stood along the dark walls of the temple, keeping a safe distance from the already smoking cauldron that stood at the center of the chamber. All of the elves were soon in that very chamber, cramped in the small dank space. Siobhan looked around in wonder, as from the ancient stone carvings on the walls to the high ceiling, she thought the temple a marvel despite its age. The Autumn princess gently touched one of the carvings, shaped into a long serpentine beast.

Neassa stepped foward, the signature dagger of her family in her hands. Siobhan peered over at Seoc, who smiled and winked in response. The Dagger of Ualan had been passed down from one generation of Lorcain to the next. Upon the death of Alasdair, Neassa had passed it to Seoc, as Aislinn had no interest in it. Every one thousand years, the dagger spilled royal blood in a ceremony known as the Passing and the Merging. This was the purpose of the families gathering in this most sacred and ancient of spots today.

Neassa looked over at Demetrius and Daimon, beckoning them to the Cauldron's edge. The queen then addressed everyone in attendance.

"Although House Eronen has yet to make an appearance, it is important that we proceed with the Passing and the Merging now. Upon this day, the twenty first day of the ninth month in the four thousandth year, the future of Iorera will be determined. Upon the crowning of the new king or queen, Winter shall reign over all of Iorera" Neassa looked at all the younger elves in the chamber, "As per tradition, blood shall decide which family you wed into, and who shall inherit the thrones of the four seasons".

Neassa unsheathed the Dagger of Ualan. "As current ruler, albeit by marriage, I shall go first, to determine if my blood is worthy".

She moved to make the first cut and the room fell into silence. The world seemed to hold its breath as she put the blade to her hand. But before Neassa could make the cut, the doors of the temple flew open, a blast of icy wind blowing through all in atteendance. A resounding roar pierced the air, and then another, coming from the entrance. The elves all turned to see two enormous white wyverns standing at the entrance of the temple. They appeared to be restless and the elves were immediately on the defensive. Any who had weapons on them armed themselves, ready for a fight. Another figure slowly made their way through the doors.

It wasn't an elf, at least from the shape of them. It was a man, taller than everyone there. His breath showed in small puffs of smoke as he exhaled. His skin was deep gray, likie old sea ice. His eyes were reptilian and sky blue in color. His midnight hair was wild and spiky. A pair of gray curled ram like horns crowned his head on either side. In the place of his nose were two snake like slits. He wore a long and torn black coat with a tattered dark gray scarf around his neck. He grinned, flashing eerily white fangs.

"Forgive my lateness, your grace" his voice was deep but his tone was just like the rest of him: Icy.

Neassa glared. "Who are you? State your purpose!"

The man let out a beast like growl. "Well, so much for being cordial".

"The queen has asked you a question and given you a command!" Demetrius stepped in, "Show respect to the Queen of Iorera!"

"With all due respect, she's only the current queen. The time of her power is coming to its end" he looked at Neassa, "it must be a relief your grace, no longer having to worry for an entire contient. A burden that will soon become mine".

"You aren't an elf. You have nothing to do with this. I will not say it again: Who are you and what is your purpose here?!" Neassa demanded.

"This actually now has everything to do with me. House Eronen is no more. I saw to that".

"I beg your pardon?!"

"House Eronen is dead, your grace. I killed them all. There's nothing more to it. By right, by laaw, my blood should be added to the Merging and the Passing. This was a part of the Four House Accords, as I'm sure you all know. It's an honor to meet you all and you may call me Frost".

"House Ketainen were the designated successors of House Eronen. Unless you destroyed them as well, your claim is moot" Daimon looked suspicious.

"House Ketainen has refused the role. Besides, who says elves should be the only ones to rule Iorera? Isn't it time new blood was added?".

"You knave!" Daimon drew his family's signature sickles from his belt, "You insolent-"

A blast of blue flame hit the king of spring as Frost seemed to combust. In his place stood an enormous beast, a dragon with silvery gray plate like scales that seemed to reflect blue in the faint light. His claws and teeth were ivory in color, and his eyes were the same as in his previous shape. As were his curled horns. Down the length of his neck were a trio of vertical spinal frills. Frost let out a roar that shook the sanctum.

"It is my RIGHT!" Frost growled and whipped his long tail, "I destroyed House Eronen, their place and power is now mine. I am to be your king! Deny me my right and I will steep all of Iorera into eternal winter, and with the ring of Alrik you all know damn well that I can!" the dragon threatened, though most of them knew it was a promise with House Eronen's ring involved.

With the Ring of Alrik, the wearer could control all things winter. It would enhance and amplify this dragon's powers, and that was something Iorera would never survive. With everything at stake, the stand off couldn't last.

"Why did you destroy House Eronen?" Neassa asked, her tone quiet and solemn.

The dragon peered down at her. "My reasons are complicated. But to put it simply: They were awful. They weren't fit to rule Iorera. They were a disgrace. You elves think so highly of yourselves. You think that you're the dominant ones because you overthrew the fae? Because you cast out all of the humans in Iorera? You're no better than either of them. You're nothing more than the new oppressors".

"We don't seek to oppress anyone" Demetrius argued.

"Of course not. No one ever seeks to oppress anyone. But time and arrogance has an effect on people and it seems you all have reached that point" Frost growled, "It's time that you all remember your place. And you will...with me as your king".

"My father wasn't arrogant" Siobhan spoke out, "Papa didn't do what he did out of arrogance" she balled her hands into fists, "My father was a good man. He was a good king. The humans gave him no choice, they were going to take everything".

Frost turned his attention to the red haired princess who dared to defy him. "From what I understand yes, Alasdair Lorcain was a good man and king. Honorable some would say. And yet he seemed blind to the inborn arrogance of elves...as are you, little one".

The dragon stepped over the elf rulers and toward the cauldron. "In the absence of House Eronen, I declare myself king of Zaigary, Lord of Winter, and future King of Iorera".

Before anyone could object, the dragon clawed his own palm and let the blood flow into the cauldron. His blood was a glistening, almost sparkling red, steam seemed to roll off of it as it spilled. The elves watched with a mix of awe, wonder, and shock as the smoke from the cauldron turned blue. The dragon had been accepted into the ritual.

"That...that's not possible" Mika quivered and paled visibly.

"It appears so" Frost growled and in a flash of blue flames returned to his more human like form, "Come then...shall we proceed? he turned to Neassa, Daimon, and Demetrius.

The veiled queen took a deep breath and stepped up to the cauldron, the dagger still in her hand. She couldn't believe this had happened. A dragon ruling Iorera was unheard of, and never before had she thought it would happen. Regardless, whatever higher powers that were, they had deemed the beast worhty. Neassa cut her hand.

"I am Neassa of the House Lorcain. I am Queen of Elisal and Lady of Autumn. I am the current ruler of Iorera" she proclaimed as the blood poured into the cauldron.

The smoke turned from blue to red in approval. Despite being only royal by marriage, Neassa and her blood were deemed worthy.

"Demetrius Nevrakis, step forward please" she said.

The summer lord stepped up to her side. "I am Demetrius of the House Nevrakis. I am King of Thilux and Lord of Summer" he offered his hand to cut.

The queen nodded and swiped his hand. The blood flowed and the smoke turned from red to purple. He and his blood were worthy.

The veiled queen looked at Daimon. "Seiya Daimon, come forward please".

The king of spring glared at the dragon and made his way forward. He extended his hand to the queen's blade.

"I am Daimon of the House Seiya. I am King of Xisha and Lord of Spring".

He didn't even flinch or cease tro glare as the Dagger of Ualan spilled his blood into the cauldron. He only took a breath. There seemed to be a second's hesitation as the smoke turned from purple to green. Mika let out a breath that she had been holding, as it was confirmed as Daimon and his blood were worthy.

"All four rulers have been approved" Neassa declared as she sheathed the dagger, "Now is the time for the passing. As the current ruler, the fate of my house shall be decided first. Aislinn, Seoc, Siobhan, and Seoras...come".

The four Lorcain siblings stepped forward in the order of their birth. Aislinn came to her mother first, who put her hands on her eldest's shoulders.

"Are you ready?" Neassa asked.

Aislinn nodded. "I am".

Neassa nodded and took up a small stone cup, dipping it in the cauldron. The liquid inside appeared to be simple water, but the elves knew it was infused with the leftover power of the fae, the power of Destiny. Aislinn kneeled before her mother, her head down in submission. Neassa held the cup over her head and poured the contents on to her daughter. As soon as the liquid touched her head, it turned from clear to gold.

Destiny had chosen Aislinn to rule Elisal.

"Fate has granted you, Aislinn Leitis Lorcain, your birthright. May you rule long and well" Neassa bowed her head as her daughter rose

Aislinn let out a trembling she hadn't realized she'd been holding. She was honestly not expecting this. She shivered as a chill went through her. Aislinn could only say a soft thank you as she and her siblings moved back, as there was no need for further pourings.

Siobhan felt her heart hammer in her chest. Aislinn would be staying in Elisal, so there was a good chance that she would be leaving. She would either be married off to another house or to the dragon. She had a hard time thinking of which was worse: House Seiya or Frost.

Frost peered over at the younger Autumn princess who he had caught briefly staring at him. He hissed lightly and flicked his tongue out at her. It was partly to get her to stop staring, and other partly to get her to pay attention to the situation at hand. It was time for the next summer ruler to be determined.

The process for this was the same, with oddly the same result. Iris was chosen to inherit Thilux. Demetrius and Maia were proud and happy beyond words. It seemed fate was favoring the eldest this time around.

That was until the Seiya children stepped forward. The five stopped before Neassa, Akio kneeling first. The veiled queen poured the cup, but seemingly nothing came out of it. Akio was not meant to rule Xisha. Daimon balled his fist and Mika looked concerned. Neassa raised a brow behind her veil as she moved to princess Rika.

Neassa poured.

Nothing.

It wasn't Rika's destiny to rule either.

Mika held on to her husband's arm, looking nervous as Neassa moved to Makio. The boy had a humble look as he too kneeled, his forehead actually touching his knee.

Everyone held their breath as the queen poured.

Nothing, once again.

At this point, Daimon's knuckles were white. The Nevrakis siblings were grinning amusedly at each other. The Lorcains were a mix of concerned and amused.

Motoaki hesitantly kneeled, a prideful smirk on his face. Today was finally the day. A day he had been waiting for his whole life. The day he would finally be declared-

Nothing.

The spring prince opened his eyes widely as he realized. "No!" the boy stood angrily, "It lies! There's no way THAT" he pointed at Kyriake, "Is meant to rule Xisha! That's a bastard! A whore's spawn!"

Kyriake glared but said nothing. The queen of spring stood. "Agreed! A bastard is unfit to sit the throne of spring!"

Frost growled. What did it matter if the girl was a bastard? She had the king's blood and destiny clearly cared more for blood than legitimacy.

"Sit!" Neassa yelled at Mika and looked at the last Seiya child, "Come...let's see if you truly are chosen".

The bastard of Xisha kneeled on both knees before the queen of Autumn. Amidst protests from Mika, Neassa poured over Kyriake's head.

Gold.

Kyriake was the heir to House Seiya. The Bastard of Spring...was to be queen. It was a historical moment, as it was a first in Iorera's history that an illegitimate child was to succeed a royal parent. The young woman stood, shaking as she sobbed a little.

"Thank you" she looked up at Neassa, "Thank you".

"It's not me you should thank, dear girl. It is whatever higher power you choose to believe in".

Kyriake nodded and turned to walk away. Mika watched, absolutely furious. How could this be? How could that wretched whore spawn possibly be more worthy than her own trueborn children?

"The Passing is complete. Due to the lack of a full winter house, I fear the Merging will not be so simple" Neassa took another stone cup, "Regardless, the ceremony must be completed. My family will go first"

Aislinn, Seoc, Siobhan, and Seoras once again came forward. Neassa dipped this new cup into the cauldron and looked at her eldest. Aislinn nodded and took the cup as she took a breath. The future queen of fall closed her eyes, putting the cup to her lips. Carefully she took a drink. She felt dizzy as the cold liquid went down her throat.

Whispers crowded Aislinn's mind as if multiple voices were disputing and debating. It grew louder for several minutes, voices of various people, both those she knew and those who didn't, deliberated who her future king should be. Finally they settled and went quiet, a name burned in her mind.

"Seiya Akio" Aislinn said as she opened her eyes, "I am yours and you are mine".

The oldest spring prince stepped toward her, curious. He would need to confirm if this was true, and if it was, it meant that he would be leaving Xisha to take his place as king of Elisal. Neassa handed him the cup and he took a drink as well.

The process was much the same, but only the voices granted words of confirmation. He looked at his parents.

"The ancestors have granted me a wife, and a title. I am to be Lord of Autumn".

Daimon sighed but nodded. He had no choice but to accept it. Mika frowned and bowed her head. At least her eldest would not be married to a Nevrakis. Aislinn and Akio stepped aside, letting Seoc take his turn. The Autumn prince took the cup and drank.

He went through the same process as his sister, except he was told he would stay in Elisal, and a name was left in his mind.

"Seiya Rika" he looked at the spring princess, "I am yours, and you are mine" he offered his hand for her to take.

Rika was hesitant but took it. She was nervous as she too took her drink from the cup. She was to leave Xisha, be with Seoc Lorcain in Elisal.

"The ancestors have given me a husband and a new title. I shall wed Seoc Lorcain and become princess of Elisal".

Seoc and Rika moved away and Siobhan stepped in. Neassa dipped the cup again and put it gently in her daughter's hands. Siobhan once again felt her heart in her chest, slamming like a caged bird. Forst watched, curious as to where this elf would land. She took a drink.

At first, everything was quiet in her mind. Deathly so. Siobhan was worried, until she felt herself grow colder and colder. Voices disputed loudly before being cut off by a roar. Frightened, Siobhan nearly fell backwards before a cold hand caught her. She opened her eyes, her breath visible for a moment. Siobhan looked up to see Frost staring down at her.

"It's you...they chose you for me" Siobhan trembled from both the cold and fear.

Frost raised a brow and looked at Neassa, who had already picked up the cup and refilled it. The dragon helped steady the autumn princess before he carefully took it. He hesitated only a moment and everyone watched as the dragon took a drink. It was quiet only a moment before Frost opened his eyes, looking around the room.

"Siobhan Lorcain, I am yours and you are mine. The king has his queen" Frost confirmed as he handed the cup back to Neassa.

She was to be queen of Iorera, like her mother. Queen of Zaigary, and Lady of Winter. She could feel the color drain from her face and her blood turned to ice in her veins. Frost gently led Siobhan away, keeping a protective arm around her. Siobhan got glares from the heads of House Seiya, and looks of sympathy from the Nevrakis. She didn't say anything, still shocked over the whole thing.

Seoras was the last of House Lorcain to be decided. Even Ronan was quiet for this, understanding this moment's great importance. Neassa preseented her youngest with the cup and he graciously took it. Silent as a shadow, he took a drink, closing his eyes. A heartbeat...then another...and another...

"Reah Nevrakis" he turned to the summer princess, "I am yours, and you are mine".

Reah bowed her head. "I am yours" she stepped forward and took a drink, receiving confirmation a moment later. She looked at her parents, who were beyond proud.

"He is to come to us, to take his place as prince of summer".

Maia looked at Seoras. "You are more than welcome, dear".

The fall prince bowed his head and the couple stepped away. Neassa looked at the Seiya twins, a solemn look on her face. "I believe due to the loss of House Eronen, only one of you will get to marry into the summer court".

Makio was calm, but Motoaki looked as though he was planning a murder. Neassa handed the older twin the cup to drink from. With a soft look, Makio took the cup and drank. Everyone watched with baited breath. His amethyst eyes opened and he looked at his parents nervously.

Mika felt the blood drain from her face. Daimon also looked ready to kill. Makio stifled the urge to tremble.

"The...the ancestors have picked for me a wife. Iris Nevrakis, I am yours, and you are mine".

Iris stood with a soft smile. Makio was young, too young right now for marriage, but she would let him grow. The summer princess took a drink and confrimed what the ancestors, fate, or destiny had decided.

"Seiya Makio...I am yours and you are mine. You're to come to Thilux and take your place as future king of summer".

There could be no objections as the couple walked away. Kyriake stepped forward, a humble look on her face.

"I will accept whatever outcome the ancestors have decided for me".

Neassa nodded as she dipped the cupand gave it to the future spring queen. Everyone watched, curious as to which Nevrakis boy would rule by her side. Her eyes opened and Kyriake glanced at Leonidas.

"Leonidas Nevrakis, I am yours and you are mine" she said in a soft tone.

Leo blinked, somewhat surprised. The summer prince slowly approached as he felt Daimon's eye on him. He took the cup and drank. It was confirmed and Leo turned to his parents.

"Seiya Kyriake is mine and I am hers. I am to take my leave and become king of Xisha and lord of Spring".

Daimon clenched his fist. A foolish Nevrakis and a bastard were the heirs to his kingdom...and he could not object to it.

"And what of my son, Motoaki?" Mika asked, "Is he to gain neither title or throne?"

Forst looked at her. "Let him and the last summer boy marry as they choose. They could start two new noble-"

"My son is royalty not nobility, beast! Do not speak of things you do not know!"

Frost snarled, baring his fangs. "I am to be your king. I suggest you hold your tongue, your grace".

"I feel what the dragon proposes is a fair deal" Neassa looked at Mika and Daimon, "Allow Motoaki to marry as he so chooses, and Zoilos will be free to do the same".

"Or...there could be an alternative" Iris stepped in, "If I may be so bold to suggest, but allow me to marry both twins".

There wre mixed sounds of surprise from the crowd. The queen of spring looked mortified and then angry.

"You already have one of my sons, I will not allow you to take another!"

Daimon stood at that. "My dear wife, please sit. Enough with the dramatics. What the Nevrakis girl proposes is fair. He deserves to live as a king, and he will" the one eyed king looked at Iris, "House Seiya accepts your proposal, princess".

Iris nodded. "If it so pleases you, I also intend to let them grow. I believe a long engagement for them is in order".

Daimon looked thoughtful a moment before looking at Demetrius. He took a breath.

"Perhaps not all Nevrakis are fools. You seem to have raised this one well" Daimon turned his gaze back to Iris, "Though I do find your attire rather ridiculous".

Iris shrugged. "I'll take that as a compliment"

Neassa looked at the rulers of summer. "And what of Zoilos?"

Demetrius put a hand on his son's shoulder. "We like the idea of letting him marry as he so chooses".

The Veiled Queen gave a soft nod. "Prince Zoilos you are free to wed as you choose. And with that...the ceremony is adjourned".

I present to you Prine Orinia alias Pri! I can't say much about her yet! All you can know is that she is a Sorcerer of some kind and that she worships Corellon! She comes from a lost village in the mountains and she is pure & innocent with a thirst for adventure! We are playing in Exandria!

i didnt watch s7 and im not going to lol

#im not gonna be drawing much fanart either except for the occasional allura bc ill always love her #its about time i stopped watching tbh #from the first they were always more sympathetic to the galra than altea #also there's no lore we hardly know anything about altea and even voltron and the lions #what they did with adashi was disgusting #and they're not even gonna give me good character dynamics?#like i had no hopes for romantic kl from the start but i though they would have a genuine bond at least #and now its like wtf??#at this point in the show we should have had a strong dynamic with not just kl but the entire team #i feel like these characters would just drift away from each the moment they're not stuck together #now the show just fells spiteful and there's no heart behind it so yeah #sorry for the rant #i wanted to post more original content anyway but i will be watching dragon prine nd she-ra so yeet #and anything else that looks good #Aparna talks #not art #ALSO there's never any consequence or resolution to literally anything that happens and that makes me mad

Ok hear me out. Have you watched Galavant? No? Go and watch it, it's like three hours. If you watched it, cool. What you are about to read is the best AU idea I had. Loki AU but it's Galavant. Now:

Loki is Galavant and Sylvie is Madelina. They lived happy together until the evil king Classic Loki (the names should be changed because every person can't be called Loki, but I don't have any idea how to call them.) arrives and takes Sylvie with him. He wants to marry her. And if you watched the show you know that Madelina stays with Richard.

One year later Loki is visited by someone who needs his help. His name is prince Mobius and his kingdom has been taken over. Loki doesn't want to help but when he hears that Classic Loki did it, he decides to help Mobius. That's a trap. Mobius was told by the Classic Loki that if he won't bring Loki, his friend (?) (or something like na advisor) Ravonna will be killed. Loki, Mobius and Casey as Sid begin their journey.

President Loki as Jean Ham

Boastful Loki as Gareth is trying to teach Classic Loki how to be a real man. Sylvie is having na affair whith B-15 who is a jester.

I don't know who will be the pirate king, but we can be sure that Loki and Mobius fell for eachother.

Kingsley is not Thor for sure. Does Loki have an evil brother?

Out next stop is Roberta who is Sygin (she was Loki's wife in norse mithology) and Croki as Tad Cooper the real dragon

I forgot about prine Harry. I thought maybe female Kid Loki?

Mr. D'Dew (I don't remember his name) is He who remains an DEL od Kang.

Then we get the happy ever after and Loki and Mobius are living in their beach house.

What do y'all think?

Winx Club Reboot Episodes 17 and 18 (These are some of the ones that I've been looking forward to the most!).

Yes!

Episode 17:

Okay, so this is the reveal of the Sky/Brandon Switch plot. But I'm doing with less drama, cheating, and overall embarrassment and heartbreak for Bloom. So we're cutting out the tournament/exhibition thing.

And since the Cloud Tower mission went different, the romantic relationships are stable.

Well. Except Riven and Darcy. After finding out what she did to Mirta and how she's now on the run from the law, he kinda feels that's breakup-worthy. We get hints that he might still love her, but he's not in denial about what she did. And anyone who tries to say "we told you so" will get an asskicking.

This starts with mostly just a large group hangout between the Winx and the boys. They're updating them on general stuff but especially the stuff they found out about Bloom's past.

Timmy connects the dots and pulls Tecna aside like "if I noticed than you have to have noticed" and Tecna's like "Yes that is most likely what's going on but there are other things I need to factor in before I act on it.".

This is derailed because Diaspro shows up! She's immediatly latching onto "Brandon" and calling him Sky while making a passing comment on how she hasn't seen him in forever and took a weekend trip out to say hi.

The girls are confused because she's calling him the wrong name. Sky and Brandon waffle on how to explain it but...

Timmy: "Oh. They switched identities. "Brandon" is Sky, and "Sky" is Brandon."

Sky and Brandon: "Wait you knew????"

Riven: "Y'all ain't slick. We spend 90% of our time together we're going to notice you slip up!"

Sky and Brandon elaborate a little. How before they came to Red Fountain, there had been some attacks on the Eraklyon royal family. So Sky and Brandon decided to switch places and make the real prine less of a target. (It was Brandon's idea and approved by Sky's parents. Sky was against putting someone else in danger on his behalf but knows that arguing with Brandon is worse than arguing with his parents.)

Brandon is a bit worried that Stella will be mad, or not like him anymore because he's not a prince. But while she's mad at the situation, she's not mad at him.

Same for Bloom and Sky. She's upset but understands that he couldn't tell her. And honestly it's been a year without incident so switching back is probably fine now.

Eventually it comes back to "so... Who is Diaspro?". And Diaspro is like "Oh I'm Sky's fiance!". Cue shocked faces and possible heartbreak from Bloom.

Everyone: "Sky you have two minutes to explain before we kick your ass!"

Sky explains that is an arranged thing because his parents and Diaspro's parents have some political agenda. Diaspro is okay with it becausr she loves him(or at least thinks she does), but he wants no part of it and has been uncooperative at best and trying to talk to his parents about the whole situation.

It kind of starts a fight. Initially it's between him and Diaspro about the expectations their parents put on them and "a duty to the kingdom" and all that. But it eventually turns to Diaspro blaming Bloom for taking Sky away from her.

It does turn into an actual fight with Magic and stuff.

Overall, Sky sticks with Bloom and tries to remind Diaspro that while he cares about both her and his kingdom, he's not going to choose his partner based on his parents political agenda. For now, she runs off.

Bloom feels guilty that she caused this, but Sky assures her that it was a long time coming and just finally became real to Diaspro once Sky has someone else in mind for romance. He knows that she'll be okay but needs time and space.

Episode 18:

Timmy and Tecna discuss their theories regarding who Bloom really is. And though they've kept quiet, Timmy points out that the Trix, a trio of dangerous Witches currently on the run from the law, have been targeting Bloom. There's a chance that this is the reason, and telling her would be better.

They go to Faragonda first, to warn her of what's going on. Faragonda agrees and they gather the gang.

Bloom handles it... Okay. I mean, how else is she suppose to take that?

Honestly she handles most of it well but like. When she first found out about all this she was excited to find who her parents are and where she's from. But to be told that it's all gone.... It hurts.

Everyone reminds her that even if her birth family and her homeworld are gone, she still has them and her adoptive parents and friends on Earth as well.

Speaking of....

The Trix have grown impatient with trying smaller scale attacks and messing with Bloom to try and get the Dragon Flame from her, so they take more drastic measures.

Kidnapping her adoptive parents and Earth friends, all of which were pretty defenseless, and threatening to throw them into the void if Bloom doesn't give up the Dragon Flame.

We get some of the Riven and Darcy thing. He calls her bluff. That she might be a lot of things, but she's not a murderer. She tries to pull the "fuck off you don't know me I was using you!" Thing but it sounds a bit hollow and lacking the conviction.

Bloom isn't as ready to believe it's a bluff. Eventually, she gives in.

I let myself fall to the ground, clinging to my own clothing and struggling to breathe evenly. He was gone. That was it, he'd moved on. The clock struck midnight and we were left in the wake of the new morning, grieving the loss of yesterday.

There was no telling when we'd see him again, if we ever would. In the end, what is the difference between a lie to ourselves and a hope for the future? I struggled against that thought, assuring myself that we would meet again.

We had to.

Dmitri stared in stunned silence. He lifted a hand to you momentarily but his hand slowly fell. He couldn’t help her, as much as he wanted to. He muttered a quiet apology when he sighed- a solemn sound. Instead, he grabbed his cloak from the fountain and held it against his chest as he made his way to Hubert.

Hubert hardly noticed the hug. He was staring at nothing, his eyes unfocused momentarily before fixating on the necklace he realized he was grasping onto. He leaned forward and fell onto his knees with a soft thump as his heart ached. He felt empty- incomplete. Tears rolled down his cheeks like miniature rivers that inevitably became waterfalls that flowed freely without a care in the world. The prince let out a loud sob when the realization sank in and Dmitri knelt beside him. Almost immediately, he pressed himself against the other prince, embracing him tightly.

Dmitri was stunned by the sudden hug but he offered it back. He draped the cloak over Hubert’s body in a warm, lengthy blanket. Moonlight trickled upon them from above, allowing the dragon emblem of the cloak to glimmer with magnificence. The dragon was blue like sapphire and resembled strength, in which he knew Hubert had. The way the slightly shorter man cried nearly brought Dmitri to worrisome tears but Prine Petrov kept his composure. He just hugged Hubert and allowed him to snuggle against his chest.
