#was going home late at night and thought

[pineappical]

in light of tedtrent becoming so real, im also jumping on the tedtrent epilogue 😊

there's just no way ted wouldn't keep in touch with the others (and have weekly zoom meetings just like in the christmas special) and I just love the thought of the whole team having reunions once in a while.

and going back to trent's arc in s3, the sunflowers conversation, "And your daughter?" "She's never been happier." I think it could go the same for ted.. we've never really properly saw how henry felt about his dad being in london, it's always other people that told ted his son misses him, who's to say henry would rather see his dad happy because that in turn would make him happy too? he was there to win the whole thing, right? I just know ted’s story isn’t done yet when he still hasn’t learned to let others take care of him in return and who else to pair him with than the man who blew up his career because a man was nice to him (and also because they were so. so cruel for the fakeout tedbecca scenes for that finale) 🥺

I'm no writer so just pretend these are snapshots of a slow burn fic where ted visits london for their team reunion and slowly realizes that trent has a crush on him and they kiss about it 💛

Just thinking about some more X'vahl and Erenville lore today when am I not? mostly about things that are so far into the future that I don't know that I'll ever get to gpose them, or at least I might not ever get to gpose them chronologically. Under the cut because I always feel self-conscious talking about lore stuff like this in earnest :)

Oh also under the cut for talk about death and mortality.

So to begin with, part of what comes with X'vahl's specific version of the echo is that he has an extended lifespan (at this time in his life he doesn't know about it though, it was an unintended side-effect that kicked in at the same time his echo did in his mid 20s). It's not by any sort of overly exceptional amount (he's not going to live into his like 500s+), but he does age slower and will live beyond that of a normal miqo'te lifespan. I've had this part of his lore planned out for years and it started off as a very tragic "he's going to outlive everyone he cares about" thing, but now that Erenville is his endgame, it's become a sort of bittersweet thing. He will still outlive a lot of his friends as well as his biological children which have been a huge driving force for him for so long, but even with his extended lifespan it is still not enough to outlive a viera who is already younger than he is. Erenville will still bury him so-to-speak, but they will still have far more time together than either of them had anticipated.

I imagine that at some point when he's either lived noticeably longer than your average miqo'te or when it becomes apparent that he looks a lot younger than he is, it will dawn on them that something is up. They may even think that he might be immortal (it would explain why he hasn't died yet despite everything he's been through). I feel like X'vahl would then get to experience the same existential dread that Erenville would have already had to unpack at this point about having to potentially bury the love of his life and live who knows how long without him.

Spinning off of Erenville's own existential fear; currently having Erenville have to come to terms with the fact that his natural lifespan is already so much longer than X'vahl's and also the fact that X'vahl is constantly either put in danger, or putting himself in danger just by virtue of being the Warrior of Light is another one of the things I want to explore with them as well. I'm sure the loss of his mother followed so closely by the fear of losing X'vahl during the battle with Queen Eternal would've already had him considering these possibilities, but he was already under so much emotional duress that it was more just a passing thought at the time—something to be discussed in the future. I'd like to let him be able to sit with those thoughts a bit more before they actually address it. I think I want him to realize just how past-the-point-of-no-return in love he is to be able to come to the conclusion that living his life without X'vahl in it at all anymore is a far worse fate than living a life together and losing him to death far earlier than his own would be. I think it will be one of the hurdles they will have to overcome in their relationship.

For now though (as of 7.2 MSQ), I will let them rest and enjoy their well-deserved time together, as I am currently unsure what canon MSQ has in store for them. As much as I'd like to believe that there is strong evidence for Erenville continuing to stick alongside WoL and the scions (if you've talked to me at any length in private you have undoubtedly heard my long list of "ways that scion!Erenville can still happen"), I have also been planning for the scenario that they do have him part ways with the scions, and with WoL. Barring any unforseen major tragedy though, I can work with either scenario and I'm excited to do so. In the words of Yoshi P himself:

WHERE DID YOU GUYS COME FROM, AND WHY.

. . . This also reminds me that I never did one of those 'follower forever' things, so maybe at 400 I'll do one? (IF I get to 400 lol)

A stranger who's laughter I recognise in a room full of people.

on a march aternoon, we became strangers. now i hold back my smile when i see you from across the street. now i don't go running, recklessly crossing the street unbothered of the traffic. i pretend to forget the birthday i once planned surprises on. i still have your playlist, but now it's two separate devices the songs are being played on. i still read your favourite book. i still play your favourite sport. in a room full of people, i can still recognise your laughter.

it's better this way, apart, because in a room full of people, you will never recognise my voice, even if my heart is calling out your name. to you, i will be one of the many you charmed. to me, you'll be the only one i ever let my guards down for. so it's better this way, apart.

Home

It is half past 3 to the morning

I want to go home

There is a dull buzz outside the window

I want to go home

The mist of gentle tunes and graceful symphonies whisper from my radio

They are a feeble attempt to soothe me

As I only want to go home

My fan chugs on past it’s tenth hour

I want to go home, I’m sure it does too

It is dark. I cannot see but the faint outline of objects around me

I want to go home.

The blankets feel heavy yet too light to provide any semblance of warmth

wet yet dry

I want to go home

My cheeks are moist

My throat burns and aches and I feel pathetic as I choke on my own tears

I want to go home

All I want

Is to go home

But I am already there.
