The (unfortunate) Chrisethabaster polycule

Just some random headcanons, idk

-> The three of them used to be friends for some time, while they were stuck unclaimed in the Hermes cabin. Chris and Alabaster looked up to Luke a lot, while Ethan not as much. They sometimes snuck out after “bedtime”, and, even though he wouldn’t admit it, both Ethan and Chris were Alabaster’s queer awakenings.

-> Chris was the first to join Luke after TLT, and Alabaster followed soon enough. He promised Ethan he’d come back after him as soon as possible, but Ethan couldn’t help but be somewhat resentful for being left alone. A year afterwards, he ran away from camp and became a rogue until he joined the Army in BotL.

-> While they were both in the army, Chris and Al dated for a brief period. They broke up before Chris’s Labyrinth quest.

-> Despite not being together anymore, Alabaster took Chris joining Camp as a betrayal, not only to the Titan Army, but to himself. His resentment towards Chris only continued to grow as they drifted apart.

-> Once Ethan joined and Kronos was revived, him and Alabaster reconciled and (somewhat) resolved past problems. Initially, they were simply happy to be back together and “start over”. Especially Alabaster - who had spent years silently trying to get Ethan to join. Ethan figured he was aroace while they were apart, and they were in a queerplatonic relationship up to the Battle of Manhattan.

-> They rarely spoke of Chris. Alabaster almost didn’t want to say his name, but Ethan decided to get back in touch, so him and Chris ended up as pen pals. Chris’s messages consisted mostly of doodles- and, occasionally, information from inside camp.

-> Ethan and Al’s relationship started to grow tenser on the brink of the war. Ideals were conflicting, Alabaster was being more reckless with his actions, Ethan more stubborn. But before any mending attempts could be done…

-> The final rupture between them was the end of the war and Ethan’s death. With nothing holding them together anymore, Alabaster and Chris reconciled in doing their best to forget each other’s existence.

Alabaster was still wrathful.

But there was nothing left to be fixed.

chrisethabaster's main appeal to me is that it gives chris and al another reason to beef aka fighting over ethan

PS: i realized that the top right bingo cell is more applicable to the chrisbaster bingo rather than the chrisethabaster bingo but whatever im lazy to edit it and it's the same characters anyway

chrisethabaster feels like that one post about a love triangle where the two guys competing for the third person's love eventually realise they weren't competing against each other, but unconsciously trying to impress the other.

Ethan was just chilling between them and waiting for them to realise that when they stared at each other's faces for a little too long it wasn't only because they wanted to throw a fist there
