If that poster picture you posted is really young Sendak: imagine your blade Shiro meeting young Sendak. How would young Sendak view his future mate?

I’m sorry. I know this took forever, and it’s not even what you asked. I had a few false starts, and - well, I came up with this. Sendak asks Shiro to marry him in front of his mom, Honerva, and stepdad, Zarkon. 

…cuz…that’s my jam this month, apparently. 

Hope this is all right. Thanks for your kindness! 

Shiro dressed the part of a prince, wearing the maroon and yellow robes of Galran royalty. After more than fifteen years living on Daibazaal as his mother studied the Rift, Shiro embraced his place in his stepfather’s court and stood on the throne platform of the Great Hall as the emperor and empress welcome members of the empire and the leaders of the nearby planets. 

They all came to pay their respects to Honerva and Zarkon after the announcement of their second child. No gifts were presented. Instead, Honerva and Zarkon welcomed everyone to a feast and held similar events on every planet of the Galran Empire.

Shiro already understood his role in the empire. Where his younger sibling would one time rule as emperor, Shiro would take his father’s lion and lead a new set of paladins. Until then, he would serve at his father and mother’s side, provide aid to planets who needed it, and fight as part of the emperor’s forces.

“My liege, my queen.”

Shiro blinked at the commander on one knee, head bowed, hand to his chest. 

Sendak was dressed in his usual red warrior garb but minus his helmet. Shiro particularly liked the helmet, how it framed Sendak’s large fluffy ears, and maybe he’d ask Sendak to put it on later when they sparred.

Zarkon stepped down the few stairs to hold out a hand to Sendak. “My commander, stand. There is no need for you to –”

“My liege, I am not on my knee for you but your son. I have come before you and the queen, to ask the prince for the gift of his favor for all eternity.”

Silence overtook the throne room, heralded by the clanging of a fork against a plate. Shiro looked between the hopeful look on Sendak’s face as he looked up Shiro, then to Zarkon, and Honerva. After the initial shock, Honerva’s face smoothed with a gentle, encouraging smile, but Zarkon contorted into a righteous scowl.

“You dare ask for my eldest child’s bonding without preparing a proper offering?”

Zarkon was not anything if not wallowed in tradition.

Sendak looked positively horrified, eyes wide, mouth slightly open. 

Sighing, Shiro reached under his black cloak and around his back to free the makeshift crest, a carved rock out of a Balmeran crystal in the style of Zarkon’s army, the insignia of a commander specifically.

“Father, Mother, I presented this to Commander Sendak of the Galran Royal Guard two full feebs ago. I believe you will find the crystal to represent Altea, my first planet, and the carving to represent Daibazaal, from where Sendak originates. Together, as commanders in your army, we hope to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves, and to fight for each other until our time is no more.”

Zarkon looked between Sendak and Shiro, then back to Sendak, roaring, “He asked you two feebs ago, and you had yet to say yes! My son you made wait until you came before us now?”

Sendak actually agreed the moment after Shiro asked, but getting Sendak to agree to tell Zarkon and Honerva took the extra time. If there was one thing in the universe Sendak feared more than death, it was disappointing Zarkon. 

A hand slipped into Zarkon’s and squeezed. Honerva then reached out to Shiro, her hand cradling his cheek. “You have our blessing, my son. We wish you both well.”

Zarkon looked to Sendak, then back at Honerva. With a huff, he snatched Sendak by the collar and hauled him to his feet. “I suppose if my son wishes to have you, I cannot say no.”

Shiro barely contained his smile as he took Sendak’s hand. “Thank you, Mother, Father. We will make you proud.”

Honerva nodded to herself. “A wedding at the end of Harvest Season. Yes, by then your brother will be here, and we will welcome everyone to the feast.”

“But Mother, I am not the – ”

“Everyone,” Zarkon agreed, a growl deepening his tone. “This will be a royal wedding. The entire empire will rejoice that you have found a mate you deem worthy.”

“Yes - no wait. That’s not – Sen, say something!” Shiro tugged on their hands, but Sendak looked like a deer in headlights. “Uhhh…your brother can be our ring bearer?”

He offered a tiny, hopeful smile. 

Shiro rolled his eyes. “You are no help.”

The music restarted as if by some invisible cue from Honerva. Somehow, Sendak gained the courage to slide his hand from Shiro’s arm to the small of his back. “May I have this dance, my prince?”

Honerva clapped happily, while Zarkon let out a rumbling sigh. As Shiro and Sendak descended the stairs, Shiro muttered under his breath, “You better not call me that in bed.”

“Why not? I don’t mind taking orders from - ”

“Shiro!” 

Shiro turned on the final stair and blinked up at Zarkon’s looming figure. “Yes, Father?”

Zarkon’s face still wore his uneasy expression, but then he straightened his shoulders and looked at his son and his closest commander.

“There is no stronger bond than love.” He took each’s hand and placed one in the other. “Take care of each other, as I know you will, and - ” He leaned forward to whisper, “Do give your mother the Harvest Season wedding. She has been rooting for you two for years.”

Sendak squeezed his hand, and Shiro sighed. “Fine. Fine, but we get to choose our first dance.”

Shiro winked at Sendak, who held his hand for one more long moment, and then they broke. Sendak grabbed freed his sword, while Shiro took dual swords from behind his back. 

The crowd parted on the dance floor. Shiro smiled a challenging grin; Sendak returned it. 

And they danced.

Fixed it. Thanks for the heads up, friendo.

Kolivan chuckled, and even though Zarkon couldn’t see their face, he knew that their fluffy ears were likely twitching in amusement. “Clan Noverok suggested sending a couple of diplomats to the Dalterion Belt to open talks with the Nalquodians…” they said, before letting out a soft cooing purr. “And Thace gave some very insightful squeaks.”

Looking over at where the head of Clan Noverok sat, Zarkon noticed that Keth was indeed sitting there with a woman who must have been his wife. In Keth’s arms was the young cub that Zarkon had met a month previously. Thace was watching the meeting proceedings with wide, dark purple eyes while Keth tried to smooth down a stubborn flyaway on one of Thace’s fluffy ears. The cub’s ears were perked in interest, twitching as they turned their head this way and that while listening.

Zarkon couldn’t help but smile and chuckle himself. “Cute…”

Posted a little about this days ago but I can't believe I only found out about it from one random poster and would have otherwise missed out?! This weekend July 29 and 30 at the Portland oregon convention center is a Halloween convention!!!!

"VAMPIRES, DRAG, AND LIVE SNAKES"

Haunts!

an escape room where "ronnie" will get you apparently! There's also going to be a bunch of scary vendors selling scary stuff, and other things. If I'd known about this sooner I'd have tried to get a vendor table or something :( But I'll probably be there both days! If you go to this let me know and we can hang out or at least say hi!

Have the reaperbirds ever stolen Jackiechickie from Gabe? Just carried him off on a wave of chanting Reaperbirbs

OF COURSE LMAOit’s usually Tiny that does, but doesn’t mean he can’t ask his other brothers to help

[eastofthemoon]

What if the puffballs are shape shifted alteans in hiding?

That would certainly be a twist no one saw coming. LOL I imagine Allura would feel very confused.

[headspacedad]

Happy birthday! Hope you have a great day!

aww, thank you!  It’s been wonderful so far and everyone’s made me so happy!

[littlecofiegirl]

in the bodyguard AU, what would Prince Lance do if he discovered that Keith had a tail that he kept hidden?

Keith has no tail in this Au. If he did he wouldn’t keep it hidden. The Blade of Marmora is his family that supported him no matter. Keith would have it out and he would be proud of it. :)

Have you seen “the iron giant”? Or “quest for Camelot”?

No, but I’ve heard the latter’s awful. Into the list it goes!

I love the idea of Ryou having fish! I keep picturing him with either angelfish or Koi. Ryou raising little Koi and when they get too big for the tank in his room, he and Coran build a pond for them. Imagine them making a greenhouse garden with the Koi pond in the center. A pretty one that is basically a water garden. Gardening is good therapy too. :)

I like that!  Though I imagine his collection of fish grow, and so does his tank, at first.  Eventually it’s like, a wall of his room.  But, yes, they do start to be dangerous to each other when there’s small ones with big ‘uns, so a room of the castle becomes a pond and garden.  Ryou cares for the pond and his grown fish (currently: Dolly, X-23, Mewtwo and Beckett (Matt named that one, Ryou doesn’t get it but it makes Matt happy so sure)).  

Gardening started as a joint Hunk/Coran venture, but now everyone contributes at least a little. Pidge pretends very hard she doesn’t like it, but she likes it a lot.  At night, Shiro tends to haunt the garden room, for the same reason Ryou likes the waterfall tank in his room: white noise.

(Fish in Ryou’s room tank currently: Boba Fett, Doomsday, Kon-El and Data*.  Shiro objects to these names because it highlights what a nerd he secretly is.  Ryou does not care, he likes his names.)

*Not a clone, but a construct.  That and Ryou just loves Data

I would just like to say that I adore Project Zero. The incredible range of emotions that you have been able to invoke throughout it far is simple staggering. I especially love your use of the video diaries. They continuously seem to break my heart but also give such great insight into the inner workings.

Ahhhhhhh, you guys! Thank you so much. I love the little video things and I like that Keith gets to be the one recording his thoughts this time around. He’s got a lot of things he’d like to say. -bandages your heart- I can’t tell you how much we both appreciate you.

thepheonixqueen replied to your post: in the digging camp au, what would the historical...

Campbell’s ancestor a robber baron who stole David’s ancestor money/riches.

I dunno, I kinda really liked the Kissin’ Kate plot, but at the same time, I’m not sure how it’d work here.

...Honestly, that might be a better idea.

Poor baby

good thing that didn’t happen right? XD
