i keep thinking about a team flare AU for Xanthos... I think it would have to happen in a scenario where Xan and AZ don't have a bunch of coincidental reunions over the years, where the last time Xan sees AZ until the modern day is when AZ exiles himself 3000 years ago. And because his anger and bitterness towards his brother is still so huge and difficult to deal with he's willing to help Lysandre with his plans though his goal is different (in X it would be "if I have to be punished with Immortality so does everyone else" in Y it would be... Well... "If the ultimate weapon can grant Immortality maybe it can also taketh away and I can finally find peace in death" which is... kind of grim to think about but still 😭)

And thus a scenario where AZ isn't really angry with his brother at that point (Saddened? Definitely. Disappointed? Most likely. But not angry...) despite everything. But Xan is angry and he wishes AZ was angry too because because his Calm Acceptance at this point in time just makes Xan feel even worse. Something like that!

#hope talks #Xanthos #I actually think this would be a really fun and interesting way for Xan to be involved in the game's main story #But it doesn't work with what I have established so far + it's difficult to think about What Would Happen Next #After Lysandre's plan fails...#But it is fun as an AU 😭😭😭 though lately I do like the idea of #Involving Xan in the main story in general #Because I reaaaalllyy want him and Lysandre to interact #So similar and yet so different... Guy who inherited AZ's generosity and anger and desperation #And also inherited Xan's passion and incredible sense of shame and guilt. No wonder why he's Like That
