[no-1-rosalind-lang-apologist]

Something that I find very, very interesting about FLF is the theme of perception vs reality when it comes to people, especially from Rosalind's pov.

Even going into reading the book, it's practically an expectation that when you start the book that you probably aren't going in as a super big fan of the main character. Even though Rosalind does have a very short pov in the TVD duology and there are definitely quite a few hints that she didn't really know what she was doing and that there's a lot more to her character, most people, just like pretty much all of the characters in TVD, don't see that because it's very subtle. And because Rosalind isn't very forward about it until you actually get into her head. When you read FLF, you get a much deeper understanding of her character and start to see that most of her characterization in TVD comes from a very warped understanding of what was going on with her.

This is also made very interesting by the fact that Rosalind's biggest character flaw is her propensity for holding grudges. If she has been wronged, she tends to cling to the anger she gets from that. It also takes a lot for her to start to see beyond her initial impressions of people, which is greatly reflected by the different ways that you begin to view the different characters in FLF.

Orion is a very good example of this. In this first pov chapter we initially see him as this,,, very unbothered average YA Hot BoyTM character. And even within that first chapter, that is very quickly disproven. Which is very interesting because that switch in perception that you have of Orion during that one chapter is essentially the same switch in perception Rosalind has of him over the course of the entire book.

This same theme is likely relevant to some extent in pretty much all of the other characters as well. With Phoebe, she's painted as a very naive, nonthreatening person only to be revealed to be the assassin who has been lurking in the background the entire time. And the more you reflect on her character, the more you realize how deeply everything that happened with her family has affected her.

Even though Alisa, at first glance, seems to be relatively unconcerned about the sides of the war and therefore likely lacking any strong morals or personal values, this is disproven when she refuses to trust Oliver, turning against the side she chose out of convenience to better align herself with the beliefs that she holds very closely to her, even though that deprives herself of the support of any formal side. She is no longer the little sister who plays a passive "watcher" role in the story.

This also applies to Silas and how Rosalind's first impression when he meets him is a memory of how she heard his father bragging about him years ago and therefore assumes that he has a good relationship with his family which I doubt is accurate.

I can also see this applying to Oliver when we see things from his point of view. My guess is that he's going to end up being absolutely terrified of his mom and that is going to contrast with the Tall Scary Communist AgentTM thing, but we'll see.

As far as Celia, I think this applies to how while she is often portrayed as a very caring kind person who only wants peace and stability, this also translates into her being willing to fight for it, which we see in TVD when she very closely aligns herself with Juliette and again when she defects to the Communists.

Hi! I’ve been wondering about Jace’s scent—is Jace just a stinky, stinky boy? Is it bc he’s suppressed his omega identity for so long that it’s very pungent? Is it bc Aemond is going into heat, too, so his body is registering the scent as a competitor, and thus he’s disgusted by it?

Omegaverse scents have always been so interesting to me. Do we know what Aemond’s scent is?

Like most people, I’ve been wondering about Luke’s reactions to Jace (lust v. love v. Instincts, etc.). I’m very impressed (albeit disappointed 😭) with your ability to keep these things under wraps to avoid spoilers. You responded to another anon that since we are in Aemond’s POV, we’re only seeing what he wants to see. My hopeful shippers’ heart is hanging on to the fact that even in Aemond’s POV Luke’s demeanor seemed to change when he noticed Aemond potentially going into heat (eye more dilated, less control of himself). To me, this reads as even if he is affected by Jace, Aemond is still his main omega and will take precedent at least where sex/lust is concerned (love is tbd). I appreciate those added details bc it’s helping me keep faith in lucemond as you work on the next installment of your lovely, lovely story!

LOOOL is Jace a stinky stinky boy?? Aemond sure thinks so 🤣🤣

Yes to both--Jace is bleeding on top of being in heat, so his scent is just really strong and everywhere right now, and Aemond instinctively clocking him as a competitor makes it totally repugnant to him.

We don't know what Aemond scents like! I've also HC-ed that you can't smell yourself, and in the D&S verse it's a crazy inappropriate, improper thing to tell someone (except in the bedroom). One day in a Luke POV I'm sure it'll come up though 🥰

I do try, despite Aemond's very unreliable POV, to include details that could be interpreted in a more nuanced light by the reader, so I'm glad you caught those! Jace being in full-blown heat on his bed had Luke a bit flushed, but you're right that just the scent of Aemond in pre-heat had Luke suddenly losing his mind.

Keep the faith! I promise y'all were not wrong to peg Luke as a Very Good BoyTM in earlier chapters, he's just also a little young and naive (and lbr totally in over his head) sometimes 💙

tangled au shindeku (platonic because their story happens in one day) with dad for one ok ok here we go

yeah it’s “tangled au” but izuku’s hair is not long. he’s just trapped in the tower because (afo)hisashi put him there out of “love”. izuku’s believed to be quirkless but hisashi knew that his son inherited his quirk so yeah. he didn’t really want anybody knowing that.

inko is the queen because hell yeah she is. she’s ever so loving to her husband that she’s fine with only being inside the castle taking care of her son, trusting his words that the kingdom was great while there’s actually chaos happening thanks to the rise of quirks.

a group of vigilantes called one for all, led by toshinori stepped in to revolt and approach the castle.

then the king was impeached (yet unfortunately had the time to take his son with him), the kingdom needed a king so toshinori proposed to the queen.

anyway the kingdom was being ~great~ and stuff with the hero system. meanwhile, hisashi built a tower and put izuku there while he sometimes goes to places to research more about trigger and nomus because he’s a great dadTM like that mmyes. /sarcasm

growing up, izuku spent his time reading stuff about quirks because that’s what’s his dad have in his library like wow okay. he also read the worn out comic books underneath his dad’s bed and it was about legends and heroes. and he was really into them.

but his dad convinces him that the world is abusive and out of control. that izuku should stay safe (because he’s “quirkless”), even guilt tripping him that he’s his only family.

funny thing is, he knows his dad’s quirk is just fire breathing because hisashi is a goddamn liar like that. he’s amused how his dad cooks with his firebreathing (like gdi hisashi don’t even impress your son more you’ll just break his fucking heart.) and well, he’s like, adoring his dad for his knowledge and sht.

by the way it’s his birthday!!! too bad he’s still inside the goddamn tower. we all know that izuku can’t fucking deal with being trapped. he needs to explore, know more about quirks and the world. and maybe meet heroes like that would be fucking cool.

so say hello to shinsou. he’s a thief and sht, and can also brainwash people so he’s p cool and fucked up because he’s an angsty boyTM. and he’s wanted. (of course he is.) he’s stealing for his village that needs attention but unfortunately the kingdom only pays attention to the middle class and sht. (admit it. all might is quite problematic ok) so shinsou’s kinda a hero of the village but more likely a vigilante because first of all stealing is bad.

anyway shinsou and his fellas ojiro, aoyama, and that one kid fled from the castle because they fucking stole the crown. like wtf.

shinsou, the ever loving trolling jerk that he is, of course, had to leave his team and took off with the crown. (the scene goes like this: “okay, boost me up” “gimme the crown first.” “what? you don’t trust me after all the times we’ve been together?” they stayed silent. “ouch” and shinsou complied. and still managed to take the crown because his agility is lit like that. “COME BACK HERE YOU-“ and bam, brain: washed.)

he was then chased by motherfucking ingenium. (no iida is not a horse here)

and thank god he succeeded in hiding. then he discovered the tower. queue shinsou and izuku meeting aka shinsou taking his time to talk to the crown and say “hello at last” and izuku beat him with a wok. (it had to be a wok ok)

so that happened, and izuku says “i got a person in my closet!” and he’s like, “can’t wait to prove dad that i’m capable af.”

speak of the devil, his dad arrives and izuku’s on hyper mode explaining how he could handle himself like freedom is near boy oh boy but no. hisashi has to be a loving fatherTM and izuku feels freakin sad now. damn his birthday sucks.

and so, he was like, “ok dad fine.” and hisashi asked him what he wants because the dude felt guilty (wow he is capable of that?) and izuku told him that he just wanted a notebook as a gift since all his notebooks are already full. hisashi agrees and left.

izuku automatically nyoomed to his closet and opened it. shinsou (pray for his soul) unceremoniously got out of it.

“okay but this person looks fine??? except for the eyebags.”

shinsou momentarily opened his eyes only to be knocked out again.

and now he’s tied to a chair.

shinsou wakes up and see izuku. “wtf who are you”

“uh who are you? you’re the trespasser-“

oh boy.

shinsou grins like a lil sht and, “untie me and forget this happened.”

izuku inside his mind: “FUCK FUCK FUCK DAD WAS RIGHT I SHOULDNT HAVE DONE THIS. BUT DAMN SO THIS IS HOW BRAINWASHING QUIRK WORKS HECK THE BOOK DIDNT TELL ME ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOW I WISH I HAD ONE TO-“

(izuku has now the brainwashing quirk while shinsou seems to feel like he’s missing something.)

“holy sht how did you- what have you done?”

“uh, i don’t really know?”

shinsou just stared at him, his quirk doesn’t work anymore for some reason.

izuku seemed to have noticed this of course, and him being a literal genius didn’t take him long enough to know that he stole his quirk. so he tried his diddly darn best to make a deal with shinsou regarding helping him to go outside the tower. (as this was happening, shinsou is jealous and bitter af like lmao his quirk got stolen bruh, so his snarkiness is gonna dial up)

shinsou: “wait, you don’t know how to go outside?”

“my dad is kinda uptight. he never told me where the door is. and i don’t really know how you climbed up here.”

“....”

“sooooo, you gonna help me?”

“what choice do i have”

and so their adventure begins

Dad. uvu

                                       izuku’s bastard demon father / @chimeriac

             It’s been almost three years since he’s seen Izuku for more than maybe four minutes in passing. It’s funny in an ironic way that he would meet his child’s little boyfriend on his own before he saw his own son after he got accepted to UA. Perhaps it was for the best after all, who was he to step in now sixteen years too late to start parenting the kid he never really wanted. 

             Hisashi looks the boy over with an incredibly critical eye. He’s oddly impressed, Shouto is for all intents and purposes cute. His coworkers had shown him Izuku and this boy’s fight at the sports festival, the clash had been spectacular. His dual quirks against Izuku’s new flashy one had been almost beautiful. Meeting him he’s even more surprised that Inko had called him to tell him that was the boyTM.

                                        ❝ so you’re the boy stupid enough                                            to date my idiot of a daughter.                                                      i saw your fight at the sports festival.                                                      pretty impressive i’ve gotta say, even                                                      if you have no taste in girls.❞
