My humble contribution to this year's Dakistan week, a fae king wedding AU inspired by @weemiss-noone's galaxy brain ideas + this post by @samijey (who may or may not be pleased that their post led to this work of art from a totally random fandom they probably didn't even know exists XD)

[murasaki-cha]

Just 4 queers all in the same place

[midnight-in-town]

So let me get this straight (PH mid s3 finale spoilers)

The whole freaking operation was a decoy

March was revealed to be a traitor and died before i could digest that fact (even if it was foreshadowed i was still </3)

Lauren is abducted by one of the circus member during a ptsd breakdown (on whose orders? Redcliff’s? the Leader’s? the Royals’?)

Viscount Redcliff currently sides with the Royals? The Phantom Scythe? Both? None? U n c l e a r

Bella hardcore believes that Kieran killed Neyra (T_T)

Kym and Will are thankfully okay, but Will still hasn’t confronted his dad about the murder of his sister-in-law, leading to his brother becoming a PS member ._.

we now know that Kieran was abducted because they mistook him for another kid they wanted to use to blackmail someone so 1) who was Kieran mistaken for? and 2) who was the other kid who was abducted and made into a slave along with him?

all that to say I still am unsure about whether Dylan died or not at Allendale lmao

Lauren’s parents used to be Apostles I and II and other Apostles have pointed out that it’s weird Lauren is still alive. So considering that March was a traitor, it means we’re slowly getting more and more hints that Dakan is likely the Leader of the PS (are Lauren’s parents the ones who sold the Snapdragon to the Royals, leading to their massacre, which is why he had them killed?)

PS 1: can i just say i love the Queen as an antagonist who totally has the balls to show up in her own carriage to abduct and torture nobles who plot against her ?

PS 2: can i also say i love Dakan as the Leader, because privileged gay man fed up with the royalist system and leading an entire rebellion, first as a pacifist then as a terrorist after almost all his comrades were assassinated by the monarchy? hell yeah my man! (the representation in this series is so good)

PS 3: still waiting for an explanation about the fact that the prophetess/seer from the circus was completely right so far? what am i missing here? is she an Apostle (likely)? or does she have precog power (unlikely)?

Last PS: an out-in-the-open alliance between Lauren, Kieran, Bella, Neyra, Kym, Will (+ Lukas, Rafael and Tristan?) when?

--

lmao please read Purple Hyacinth. I’m in for a reread myself, there’re just too many clues I’m probably missing. 

[rena-rubel]

You know what?

I think Tristan is the leader.

[mysticstarlightduck]

From the secret ask list post:

4) What song describes your OC and their partner/love interest?

Yay!!!! Thanks for the ask!!!!

Let's go with some characters from 'Crash Stardom!' because I feel I should talk more about that WIP lmao, so here we go!!!

WIP Summary for context: Crash Stardom! is a futuristic urban fantasy with a touch of sci-fi, and the story of the book follows Tristan Mallory (20M) the most popular pop singer in the nation, as he tries to escape his creepy agent, Sinclair (45F), and keep his career, along with what is left of his family, from falling apart. When Tristan's younger half-brother, Noah (16M), discovers a dangerous secret society along with the fact that magic exists on Earth, it just had been hidden well, Tristan too ends up caught up in that mess too. Especially when he finds himself falling in love with the bitter yet incredibly attractive hitman hunting the secret society down, Randall Sloanne (21M)

CRASH STARDOM!

Tristan Mallory X Randall Sloanne (true relationship/true love)

Let The World Burn - Chris Gray

I shouldn't have fallen in love Look what it made me become I let you get too close Just to wake up alone And I know you think you can run You're scared to believe I'm the one But I just can't let you go I'd let the world burn Let the world burn for you This is how it always had to end If I can't have you then no one can I'd let it burn I'd let the world burn Just to hear you calling out my name Watching it all go down in flames

Please Please Please - Morgan Clae version

Please please please don't prove I'm right Please please please Don't bring me to tears when I just did my makeup so nice Heartbreak is one thing My egos another I beg you don't embarass me Mother fucker ahhh Please please please Well I have a fun idea babe Maybe just stay inside I know you're craving some fresh air But the ceiling fan is so nice And we could live so happily If no one knows that you're with me I'm just kidding But really Kinda Really

I'll Be There For You - Chase Holfelder version

So no one told you life was gonna be this way Your job's a joke, you're broke Your love life's DOA It's like you're always stuck in second gear When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month Or even your year, but I'll be there for you (When the rain starts to pour) I'll be there for you (Like I've been there before) I'll be there for you ('Cause you're there for me too) You're still in bed at ten And work began at eight You've burned your breakfast So far, things are going great

Derya Muirenn X Noah Mallory

Teenage Dream - Katy Perry

Let's go all the way tonight No regrets, just love We can dance, until we die You and I, will be young forever You make me Feel like I'm livin' a teenage dream The way you turn me on, I can't sleep Let's run away and don't ever look back, don't ever look back My heart stops When you look at me, just one touch Now, baby, I believe this is real So take a chance and don't ever look back, don't ever look back

F*cking Perfect - Pink

Made a wrong turn, once or twice Dug my way out, blood and fire Bad decisions, that's alright Welcome to my silly life Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood Miss knowing it's all good, it didn't slow me down Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated Look, I'm still around Pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel Like you're less than fuckin' perfect Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing You're fuckin' perfect to me You're so mean (you're so mean) When you talk (when you talk) About yourself, you were wrong Change the voices (change the voices) In your head (in your head) Make them like you instead So complicated, look happy, you'll make it Filled with so much hatred, such a tired game It's enough, I've done all I can think of Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same, oh

Love Story - Taylor Swift

We were both young when I first saw you I close my eyes and the flashback starts I'm standin' there On a balcony in summer air See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns See you make your way through the crowd And say, "Hello" Little did I know That you were Romeo, you were throwin' pebbles And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet" And I was cryin' on the staircase Beggin' you, "Please don't go, " and I said Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"

EXTRA (and no this doesn't count as a relationship, it is just coercion, it's a forced transaction that is VERY MUCH toxic as hell, but since it is still at the core of the story's subplots and is one of Tristan's main conflicts, Imma add it lol)

Tristan Mallory X Sinclair Attkens (one sided - Sinclair blackmails Tristan and Tristan wants to protect Noah so he plays along)

Every Breath You Take - Chase Holfelder version

Every breath you take And every move you make Every bond you break Every step you take I'll be watching you Every single day And every word you say Every game you play Every night you stay I'll be watching you Oh, can't you see You belong to me? How my poor heart aches With every step you take? Every move you make And every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you

I've Had Enough - Melina KB

Here's to the "no"s To the "I think you should go"s To the leave his ass alone's To the hanging up the phone's To the no man can demand my Body, my spirit, my love Oh Here's to the "no"s To the "walk yourself on home"s To the keeping on my clothes To the highs without the lows To the no man can demand my Body, my spirit, my love, love Love If you're so mature now Then I think it's time you grow up Admit you did it! We all know you did it! And yet you still gaslight me up...

Teen Idle - Marina and The Diamonds (Tristan is 20 btw, but this song fits him too well not to add it here 😭)

The wasted years, the wasted youth The pretty lies, the ugly truth And the day has come where I have died Only to find, I've come alive I wanna be a virgin pure A twenty-first century whore I want back my virginity So I can feel infinity I wanna drink until I ache I wanna make a big mistake I want blood, guts, and angel cake I'm gonna puke it anyway Yeah, I wish I'd been, I wish I'd been, a teen, teen idle Wish I'd been a prom queen, fighting for the title Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible Feeling super, super, super suicidal [...]

I wish I wasn't such a narcissist I wish I didn't really kiss The mirror when I'm on my own Oh God, I'm gonna die alone Adolescence didn't make sense A little loss of innocence The ugliness of being a fool Ain't youth meant to be beautiful?

Ego - Sarah Kennedy (this is honestly Sinclair's song fr)

Baby stroke my ego Will you tell me please? And watch my heart take ahold of me Baby stroke my ego Will you kiss my pride? And watch the lights change inside my eyes If you hold on to me tight I'll take you down with me tonight Show you things you wouldn't like to see but you would like to be If I could walk into your mind Take your hand and show you mine Show you things you wouldn't like to see but you would like to be Baby stroke my ego Say it from your knees Some say it's evil I say it's me

Alright, so mabye I'm not done asking questions, what about it?!? So for Tristan 11. How do they cope with confusion (seek clarification, pretend they understand, etc)? For Astrid 12. How do they deal with an itch found in a place they can’t quite reach? and since I can't be chill about him 15. How do they speak? Is what they say usually thought of on the spot, or do they rehearse it in their mind first? and 18. What embarrasses them? for Aaron

Oh, are you challenging me?! Huh?!? Come at me!! *cracks knuckles* Ouch… jk thank you a lot!! And I can't be chill about Aaron either, I even started doodling something while thinking about his answers...

... I love hate him. *still continues to draw him* ANYWAYS, OC QUESTIONS:

Tristan - How do they cope with confusion (seek clarification, pretend they understand, etc)?

He pretends he understands everything during conversation until he can try to figure it out himself. He's bad at hiding it, so you can clearly see on his face that he doesn’t understand xD So people ask him something like “You got that?” - “Actually, no.”

If it’s something like a spell or something he’s confused about, he does some research in the books he owns (he might not look like it but he enjoys reading and owns a lot of books)

Astrid - How do they deal with an itch found in a place they can’t quite reach?

She grabs anything within her reach, which could be useful, trying hard to reach the spot until she loses balance and falls over xD If her best friend Emilia or Orpheus are around she just asks them for help

Aaron - How do they speak? Is what they say usually thought of on the spot, or do they rehearse it in their mind first?

OH that’s a good one!! I'm going to first answer on how he speaks: He speaks in a very calm, charming way and likes to stay polite most of the time, since that’s what his family taught him. (Except when he’s really angry and threatens you, but to make him lose his temper you need to piss him off really hard) He’s very manipulative, so almost everything he says is thought through and with ulterior motives (he doesn’t have to think for too long tho, he’s rather intelligent) He also uses a good amount of wit and sarcasm, which mostly is thought of on the spot.

Fun fact: Sometimes he does rehearse villainous speeches he can say to Shelter/Sookie. He tells them to his cat first tho xD

What embarrasses him?

He likes to be in control (of things, people around him, anything) so what embarrasses him is if he would lose this control. When someone overpowers him and lets him get on his knees to bow his head (for example) Although that’s a mix of anger and embarrassment actually, because around his father back then, he's never really been in control… OH also, if someone shows some kind of affection to him. He is not used to it, so if someone would give him a hug or something he would be confused and embarrassed at once xD

Find the Word Tag Game

I was tagged by @evilbunnyking to find trace, touch, kiss, and laugh in my WiPs.

Trace and touch, from an Astrid/Adam snippet that's still being picked on:

Cool fingers traced along the edge of her scar, causing gooseflesh in their wake. "How old were you when this happened?"

She watched as his hand reached the deeper marks along her ankle where the scarring went deeper. "Nineteen." Astrid settled further against the sofa, trying her best to act unaffected by his touch. She knew she wasn't doing a good job either, but he had the grace not to say anything. "Nineteen with the entire world ahead of me, before some guy t-boned my coach's car."

"I'm sorry."

"Hey, it's okay. We were lucky to make it out of that crash without being hurt worse. I don't know how lucrative a career in professional fencing would have been and you only get to go to the Olympics once every four years." She wiggled her toes. "It would have been nice to have been able to go to the one I qualified for instead of healing up from surgery, though."

Kiss, from some vague Elena/Arturo feelings that are still percolating in the noggin:

"Doctor Martinez."

Elena saluted her co-worker with her chipped coffee mug before setting it down to grab a clipboard with her daily rounds. "Doctor Jimenez. Cold enough for you this morning?"

He gave a quick look around the infirmary tent to make sure there weren't any eyes on them before moving close. "It sure was." Reaching out, he took her mug and drank from it, making sure to press his lips to the place hers had been. It wasn't exactly a kiss, but for two people trying to fly under the radar to avoid the no fraternization rule, it would have to do. "The other side of the cot was cold without you."

Laugh, from a Lilian + Tristan + Sunny beach day idea that's been keeping me company this week:

"He's barely fifteen months old," Lilian protested. "I don't think he's going to be swimming laps any time soon."

"Hey, it's never too early to teach him! I was just a little'un myself when the priestesses taught me to swim in the lake behind the temple."

Lilian smiled as Tristan's babyish shrieks of laugher filled the air, the barest bubbles of surf rushing over his feet as she held him upright, wet sand scrunching between his toes. "Give him a year or so, then you can take him out to swim to your heart's content. Until then," she picked her son up in her arms and pressed a smacking kiss against his sun-warmed cheek. "There's a picnic lunch to be eaten and naps in the shade to be had."

The Beths - Tiny Desk Concert Have you seen the charming Beths from New Zealand’s Tiny Desk Concert? So great. I love how Liz Stokes’ kiwi accent comes through on the songs. One of best bands out there today. Incredible songs and musicianship.  Worth your time.

Me after that last panel in chapter 146

[releasing-my-insanity]

In honor of their 80th anniversary (Married April 20 1944), here are three pictures of Sheila and Brian Sinclair taken from the American Association of Bovine Practitioners 12th Annual Convention in San Antonio, Texas on November 30 1979 where Brian was they keynote speaker.

The papers in the top picture are declaring Brian an "Honorary Citizen of Texas" and "Honorary Mayor of San Antonio" for a day.
