Thranduil for headcanons (or 4 pages into a WIP if you don’t have too many hcs for him)

I did not have hcs for him until I started working on this year's TRSB but now I guess I have a lot! Here's a few:

Thranduil was born in the early part of the Second Age, to Oropher, the last living elven descendant of Galathil, and Eregfela, one of the few survivors of Doriath's destruction.

All that Thranduil knows is the safety of Lindon, until his father decides to go east: well north of the last known elven settlements, to the Greenwood. Eregfela refuses to leave Lindon; her loyalty is to her king, and she favors her Noldor king over her Sindar husband.

But Thranduil has always loved the times he's gone to the forests on hunts. He's always loved the sweet song of the green trees, the chill of the damp moss, the sharp crinkle of the leaves under his foot. And to stay in Lindon, to stay in this quiet and this silence- Thranduil tells his mother: It'll be a slow death.

He follows his father, and doesn't look west once the full journey.

And then they reach the leaves of the Greenwood, burning such a bright green it stings their tongues.

Thranduil falls in love. He also falls in love with the elf that takes him hostage, though that takes him a little longer.

Arunima is the only child of Chief Mrinalini of the Silvan elves, who herself is the last descendant of Denethor, last King of the Laiquendi. She takes Thranduil- and Oropher, and their entire retinue, eventually- into custody; threatens them into submitting to her mother's control. In the cold wooden dungeons of Mrinalini's home, Thranduil strikes up a friendship with Arunima- they are both the children of long-lost kings; they are both the heirs to kingdoms that have lost most of their glory; they are not children any longer, but they do not live in an era in which they can prove their strength or their independence.

It takes long months, but finally Thranduil wins enough confidence from Arunima that he won't escape- they go out, sit on a quiet ledge, admire the forest.

I love this land, she tells him. But I have- no wish to rule it.

Is this a land that needs a ruler? asks Thranduil. He smiles, touches her hair, shining like silver stars, and says, I think this forest can rule itself, my lady: all we are is a custodian, for however long the land can bear us.

Arunima tilts her head into Thranduil's hands, but does not speak. That night, when she locks him into his cell, she lingers outside of it: but when he smiles at her, she flushes, and walks away quickly.

They start to go out regularly: weekly, then daily. Arunima still does not kiss him. But they- hold hands, explore the forest, teach each other to bear weaponry. By the time Arunima does kiss Thranduil, it feels- inevitable, more than surprising.

Promise me, she says, when he pulls away. Promise me.

And Thranduil knows what she is asking, and Thranduil knows that he can answer.

Of course, he says. Always.

And beneath the shining stars, they wed.

When Mrinalini dies from a stray orc attack to the south, it is Oropher that takes up the minutiae of caring for the Greenwood, while Thranduil and Arunima go south, to study and learn from her Avari kin. When Oropher dies at Dagorlad, Thranduil and Arunima become custodians of the Greenwood in equal measure: rulers in equal part.

Legolas' birth is their greatest joy, born into the peace of the early Third Age.

And then- the dragon comes.

It burns Erebor to ash. And amid the ash of all the shattered dwarves, there is another: the burned bones and ash of a once-queen of the elves that had never been a queen, that only bore the title of queen for lack of another, more accurate title.

Arunima dies, and Thranduil burns, burns, burns alive.

Decades later, when a young guard-captain falls in love with a prisoner who shares her love of starlight, Thranduil does not soften anywhere except for the burning in his heart, which has never forgotten the long years of his courting and wooing and marriage: no matter how hard he tried to forget it.)

SFW Alphabet|| Megumi Fushiguro

A/N: Uhhhh I’m back on my bullshit >:) it’s missing Fushiguro hours folks.

Word Count: 2050

A: Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

(If you want some more in depth affection headcanons click here)

Fushiguro is someone who isn’t big on pda but makes up for it in private. In public, he’ll hold your hand but in private he’s laying i your lap while you massage his scalp. Basically, he’s a big softie that just represses his urge to cuddle until he’s alone with you.

B: Best Friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)

Best friend Megumi is literally the president of the Y/N defense squad. If anyone has a problem with you, they have a problem with him. Of course, you have to rein him in sometimes and remind him you can fight your own battles, but just know he’s lookin out for you.

C: Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

Fushiguro loves to cuddle, but he will repress the urge to do so for as long as possible. Because of that, he doesn’t let you go, preferring to cling to you throughout the night. His cuddles are always deceptively loose too. His arms give you just enough wiggle room but the second you try to get up, it’s like fighting two pythons.

D: Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

I don’t think he ever really planned on settling down, Megumi figured that he’d die long before he ever got the chance to settle down. Everyday is pretty much a new experience in terms of domesticity for him, he doesn’t have plans for the future, but as long as you’re with him, he’ll be happy.

E: Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

If he ever had to break up with someone, he’d probably ask for help on how to do so. The first person he’d ask (regrettably) would be Gojo who’d tell Megumi to just ghost the person. After asking around some more, he figured Kugisaki’s approach of getting it over with as bluntly as possible (although less mean) was the best option.

F: Fiance(e) (How would they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

Megumi isn’t really the type for wedding ceremonies. He’s all about commitment (even though working up to marriage for him is longer than most) but he’s not a fan of being the center of attention, so a wedding ceremony/reception wouldn’t be his thing. If you wanted a ceremony, he’d be willing to compromise somewhat but otherwise, he’s perfectly fine with just going to the courthouse.

G: Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

He’s kind of rough around the edges. In private, he can be the sweetest, most tender soul, but in public he’ll put 7 yards of distance between you both if you try to hug him. Basically, he’s very shy, so anything that’ll draw too much attention is a no go (he isn’t opposed to linking pinkies though).

H: Hugs( Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?

At first Megumi really only hugged you when he was missing you, sad, or tired. Over time though, he got better at becoming more open with his affection and he’ll hug you whenever he feels the urge to. Despite that though, his hugs still have an undercurrent of desperation in them. He holds on just as tight each time like he’s afraid you’ll disappear.

I: I love you (How fast do they say the L-word)

He’s operating on a very strict ‘If you don’t say it, I won’t’ policy and as such this man will not say a single thing to you unless prompted. He knows deep down that he loves you and that you set off butterflies in his stomach every time you smile, but he never really thought to verbalize that until you say ‘I love you’ first.

J: Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous)

Megumi doesn’t get jealous, he’s fought side by side with you and he knows you’re more than capable of fending off any unwanted suitors. Megumi put a lot of trust into you by already being in a relationship so to him, it makes no sense to be jealous over you. That all being said, he’s not above the occasional side eye if someone’s getting a little too buddy buddy.

K: Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

On a normal day, his kisses are so natural, he’s so slow and the pressure is just enough to have you thinking you’ve got all the time in the world. In near death/ post-near death circumstances, he’s a little more feral. When he kisses you like that, it feels like it’s the end of the world and he’s trying to make the most of it.

L: Little ones (How are they around children)

Fushiguro isn’t good with kids that aren’t old enough to communicate. Older kids are fine with him, but guessing what a baby needs based on how loud it’s crying? Hard pass for him and he doesn’t even feel bad about it. The last time he had to watch a baby, he tried to leave one of his shikigami to watch it; long  story short, he had to explain to a cackling Gojo why his demon dogs wouldn’t let him leave to go to the bathroom.

M: Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)

Mornings with Fushiguro are pretty rare. Most of the time you guys don’t really get to sleep in or even spend mornings together since most of the time there’s missions or trainings you’ll have to go to. When you do get the rare morning off, Fushiguro makes the most of it. He sleeps in and doesn’t wake up before 10 no matter what you try. When he does finally wake up, he loves cooking breakfast with you, he’s not the best cook, but he treasures the experience over anything.

N: Night (How are nights spent with them?)

Nights with Megumi are also rare as most curses come out at night and that’s kinda your guys’ job. If all goes well though, you’ll both come back a little earlier and just go straight to sleep. If it’s a late night where the curse took more out of either of you than expected, yall usually stay up and talk and snack until one of you falls asleep or the sun comes up.

O: Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)

It takes him an extremely long time to open up to you about his past. Not because he doesn’t trust you, but because he’s embarrassed and doesn’t want you to think less of him for it (especially during his problem child era). To be honest, you probably find out about certain things from other people. Once he’s cornered confronted, he’ll be completely (albeit a bit grudgingly) honest about it.

P: Patience (How easily angered are they?)

His anger is kind of weird, whereas before, he was a lot quicker to explode, bluntly telling off or even fighting whoever pissed him off, he’s changed. He tries his best to repress his emotions and as such, he comes off as patient, never expressing his true feelings/desires until pushed to the brink. 

Q: Quizzes (How much would they remember about you?  Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

He’s the king of remembering details you mention in passing. His love language is partially acts of service so for him, remembering details about you helps him later. Oh remember that one time you needed a pen/pencil but didn’t have one? Never again, this man has a section of his shadows dedicated solely to pencils because of you. Oh what’s that, you like this random song? Guess what just got added to the playlist he made for you. Basically, while he may not look like it, he’s actually a simp and so if he can make your life easier/ make you happy, it’s worth it.

R: Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)

So Megumi is someone who doesn’t play video games but is really good at them for no reason. One day, you’re playing a game of smash bros. and he’s just kicking your ass, like it was sad. Needless to say, after his 4th win, he “accidently” pressed the wrong button and let you win. He thinks you don’t know he did this but when you won, you kissed him and completely flustered him, to the point that he couldn’t play for a solid 5 minutes. 

S: Security (How protective are they? How would they like to be protected?)

Despite knowing and trusting that you can defend yourself, he’s still super protective of you. You’re one of the few people that he cares about in the world and he’d give everything to see you safe and protected. As for how he’d like to be protected, knock some sense into him every once in a while. He has a habit of self sacrificing so if you want to protect him, remind him that you want to keep him alive as much as he wants to keep you alive.

T: Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

On the outside, his dates are very simple. They usually consist of you and him either staying in or just hanging out at stores and the like. Every once in a while, he’ll try to take you somewhere special, like a cove he found or a festival. For most people, these may be simple dates, but Fushiguro puts so much effort into so may aspects of your dates that honestly, anything bigger would lose the personal touch your dates have.

U: Ugly (What are some bad habits of theirs? (I’m gonna add arguments here because they aren’t on the prompt list I found))

One of his worst habits is his self-sacrificing tendencies. Even during a baseball game, he can’t help but sacrifice himself (especially if it means his friends/ you get to get the glory). With time though, he grows out of this and realizes it’s not selfish to want the best for yourself.

V: Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)

He’s giving “I woke up like this” and it’s... it’s something. One might think the style is intentional since obviously, the look could only be achieved with gel, and to an extent, it is intentional. He might use gel to spike it a little more but the man legit rolls out of bed and chooses to leave his hair up like that.

W: Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

No, as much as he loves you, Fushiguro is an introvert. He needs time to just be by himself and unwind every once in a while, so he’s got no complaints if you leave him to his own devices or have to be gone for a long time.

X: (E)xes (Any previous relationship experience. How does that factor into your current relationship?)

Megumi has negative zero relationship experience. He’s never found someone that was worth the risk/ worth opening up to, hell, he just barely got friends when he entered high school. Because of this, every part of your relationship is like navigating uncharted waters.

Y: Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner)

He’s less someone to dislike a specific thing/ personality trait, and more someone who doesn’t like different people for different reasons, ex. Todo and Mai. If he had to pick a single trait, it’d probably have to be hypocriticism.

Z: Zzz (What is a sleep habit of theirs?)

He is someone who will fall asleep spread eagle one night and the next be huddled into a tiny little section of the bed. Mercy on you if you try to cuddle because now you’re wrapped up into his unconscious acrobatic routine.

( introduction )

･ﾟﾟ･｡ ( sydney park, cis female, she/her ) — 𝒉𝒐𝒈𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒔 𝒊𝒔 𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒘𝒆𝒍𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒉𝒐𝒎𝒆 RITA SKEETER, the TENTH year SLYTHERIN student ! i hear that the TWENTY-year-old is known to be CHARMING and CUNNING and also very VINDICTIVE and MANIPULATIVE. however, if you ask me, the fact that they are a PUREBLOOD and leaning towards the side of the DEATH EATERS is a lot more telling.

basics:

full name: rita nari skeeter

age: twenty

hogwarts house: slytherin

hogwarts year: tenth

extracurriculars: potions club

amortentia: the smell of fresh ink, cherry blossoms, the ocean

boggart: public humiliation

patronus: beetle

the app:

the name:

reveilo: rita skeeter, in and of herself, was a scandal. she was born on a cold chilly morning on november eleventh, on the six month anniversary of her parents wedding day, and only seven months after her parents engagement came to be. jin ae moon had always been the girl everyone expected her to be, having been sorted into ravenclaw, she excelled in her schooling, and it was no surprise to anyone when she took a position in the ministry shortly after her twenty-second birthday. however, as all children do, she eventually made a mistake that would determine the rest of her life. after attending a quidditch match with her older brother, she found herself face to face with puddlemeres newest beater, parker skeeter. a few drinks later and she found herself in bed with parker skeeter. she left before he awoke the next morning, embarrassed and humiliated with herself. she went on with life as usual until she found out that her harmless night with parker skeeter wasn’t so harmless after all, and with crafty negations between both parties, jin ae moon became jin ae skeeter before anyone became aware of the result of their little indiscretion: rita. there wasn’t true love in their marriage, if anything there was resentment in the beginning. parker skeeter’s career was just starting, and the last thing he wanted was to be tied to a wife and baby, but he didn’t dare risk scandal. scandal could ruin them both, the common theme that bonded them. whenever she were born, her parents decided to let their family, and the media alike, think that she was premature, and quite ill as a result, backed by the word of the healer after she had received a significant amount of galleons for her silence. she was three months old before she was ‘well’ enough to be shown to the world, and this was the first time the world saw the scandal became known as rita skeeter.

indocturnation: while rita’s father hadn’t been excited about her existence in the first place, especially on the realization that she was a girl and not the son he craved, parker skeeter knew that at least he could instill his values in her. her only true unchangeable flaw in his eyes being her dark hair, the one thing of her mothers she has. the first time she learns about mudbloods she is barely three years old. her father sat her down in the living room, and began filling her innocent mind with words and phrases describing monstrous things, not even human enough to be called a person. those were what mudbloods were, and the reason that she had to avoid these monstrous beings became quite clear to the three year old rita skeeter right away. over the next seven years her father would continually give her lessons about how to be a proper pureblood, and what is right and wrong as he slowly formed her views little by little. her mother on the other hand never so much as uttered the word mudblood the entire duration of your time . jin ae never really seemed to voice any of the opinions she had around her husband, though she told rita of some of them. how she didn’t like the cologne he wore, or how she wished he would take his shoes off when he came into the home. all in all, her mother was picture of how a pure blood wife should be, at least in her fathers eyes. quiet, polite, and not questioning things. if he only knew what she thought of his views, and his actions and indiscretions. her childhood is spent in a house of unrest just waiting to boil over, and at the age of three, she is completely unaware of just how bad things will get.

the story is what you make it: it was a cold may morning whenever rita and her mother made the trip back to her home town for her grandfathers funeral. during the funeral they spoke about his bravery, his skill, his family, and their ancestors. it was only whenever a young rita listened closely that she heard lies being told, and things not adding up quite right. she stayed silent though, as she was supposed to, and waited until the witches and wizards dispersed to pull on her mothers robes and ask about what she’d heard, and asked why they lied. her mother knelt down to face her, and told her a phrase that would stick with her for the rest of her life: the story is what you make of it. the young witch nodded, and touch her mother’s hand as she led her away, the words still dancing in her head.

animagus: from the time rita skeeter learned about animagi in her third year at Hogwarts, she decided then and there that she would become one. it was a grueling process, exasperated by the fact she wanted it to remain a secret. she studied and read for years, preparing for when she would finally put it all into action. it was in the summer after her seventh year that she put her plan into motion, finally succeeding her endeavors shortly before her eighth year was set to begin. her form was a beetle, not something she would have ever anticipated, but a useful thing in the end. no one would notice a beetle in a crowded room, or whenever spilling out their deepest and darkest fears to no one but themselves.

headcanons:

rita is the daughter of parker skeeter and jin ae moon. she is the only child of the marriage as complications from labor rendered jin ae unable to bare more children.

she is fluent in english, korean, and french. potions was her best class at hogwarts

potions was her best class, and the only course she recieved an outstanding on in her newts

she hasn’t taken the dark mark yet not because she doesn’t support the cause, if anything, she supports it more than anything else in her life, but should the tide of the war change, she wants to be able to make the story what she wants it to be, and a bullseye on her arm is hardly conducive of that.

she has been writing anonymous articles and stories and submitting them to wizarding publications from the time she was sixteen, occasionally getting published in the daily prophet and witch weekly from time to time. typically revolving around gossip she has heard amongst the students, in hogsmeade, the social circles she is privy to, as well as blatant lies.

♔  →  westeros  presents  MARGAERY TYRELL,  the LADY  of  HIGHGARDEN.  a  raven  sent  word  that  she bears  the  resemblance  to  LILY COLLINS.  the  TWENTY-FOUR  year  old  FEMALE was  QUICK-WITTED  &  RESOURCEFUL  before  the  dawn  of  war,  but  have  now  become  SELF-SERVING  &  SUSPICIOUS.  when  songs  are  sung,  their  verses  speak  of  SOFT, HONEYED LAUGHTER FALLING FROM ROSY LIPS WITH PRACTISED EFFORTLESSNESS, DOE EYES THAT SEE FAR MORE THAN THEIR GENTLE GAZE BETRAYS, THE RUSTLE OF FINE MATERIAL AS EXPENSIVE GOWNS DISGUISE PURPOSEFUL FOOTSTEPS BEHIND DAINTINESS.  whispers  throughout  the  seven  kingdoms  claim  that  their  allegiance  lies  with  HOUSE  LANNISTER  /  THEMSELVES,  but  fealty  means  little  when  you  play  the  game  of  thrones. 

Please note: I have gone mostly book canon for Margaery’s biography, with most of the tweaks coming towards the end, with the most important one being that she is not betrothed or married to Tommen - it’s only been spoken about. However, I have tried to incorporate most of it in but if anyone has any questions outside of this then please feel free to ask!

The little girl who had wanted to be queen seemed one step close to her wish when she married Renly Baratheon after the death of King Robert. With Robert’s children seemingly proven that they were not his, it was all too easy to go along with the support of the youngest Baratheon - after all he was popular with the people and it meant that her family’s hope would be realised. And it was a far preferable plan to the previous one of Robert himself becoming infatuated with her. It was short lived though and with Renly’s death the Tyrells aligned themselves with the Lannisters.

The end of one marriage quickly led to another and before long she found herself the wife to be of Joffrey Baratheon - a marriage that would make her Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. Or at least it would have had he survived the wedding feast. There was a part of her relieved to see the death of him but at the same time there was undeniable disappointment that she still hadn’t managed to achieve her goal. No difference could be made with a husband dead before the wedding night.

Since Joffrey’s death she remained in Kings Landing, somewhat at the mercy of Cersei. Her family are still pushing for a union between herself at Tommen and Margaery has developed a friendship with him even though it only sours things further between her and the Queen. Life has been made difficult for her in Kings Landing, the Queen seemingly determined to tarnish her image in whatever way possible with whispers of her supposed many lovers circulating the capital although there is little evidence to prove it to be true.

As things have begun to turn against the Lannisters her mind has been made up. The Tyrells no longer have need of them in her mind and they would be far better choosing to align with someone else. However, their position is precarious and she is all too aware that part of it is due to her. It won’t stop her from trying to do her grandmother proud and form other alliances in secret while trying to uphold the image that she’s still perfectly loyal to the Lannisters.

Headcanons - 

As a young girl she’d dreamt of romance and love even though the more savvy part of her knew that marriage was far more of a contract of alliance than anything else. Still, she had hoped for some kind of contentment at the very least, under no illusions that it would be a love match, but now with two dead husbands to her name Margaery finds herself resisting the idea of marriage more and more. Of course, she’ll do anything for her House and family but her hope is waning that there will be any light in it.

Riding is still one of her favourite pastimes although she has done it far less since her move to Kings Landing. Her horse is one that Willas has breed and is by far the favourite of all the gifts she’s received.

While she will claim that it’s impossible to choose between the three of her brothers, she does have things that she loves most about them. Willas might have taught her to read but it was his drawing of stars that have given her a love for star gazing, though she finds herself struggling to find the time or the privacy to indulge in it any more. She greatly admires Loras for his pursuit of glory (the two of them somewhat alike in that respect) and Garlan for his dedication to honing his battle skills.

Her generosity might be seen as those more cynical as solely a way to gain favour but in reality Margaery quite often wishes that she could do more. Of course she is more than aware of the happy side effect that it makes her popular with the small folk but some of the root of her ambition to become queen had to do with making life easier for the population of Westeros. She hates to see suffering and had dreams of being a queen who could help diminish it at least somewhat or at the very least set change into motion.

Personality -

Magaery Tyrell has always been unfailingly kind at heart, possessing a natural compassion that lends itself so well to interactions with others. People’s fondness for her isn’t often misplaced when more often than not she does tend to have their best interests at heart - and only sometimes because they suit hers too. All sweet smiles and innocent doe eyes, she has a way of making people miss the shrewdness that they hide. Just as intelligent as her grandmother and trained to put her compassion to the side when needed, Margaery is far from the gentle lady that everyone seems to take only at face value. There’s ambition behind all those pretty smiles and while her wants might have shifted over the years she’s still prepared to do whatever it takes to achieve them.

Potential plots -

True allies/friends

Childhood acquaintances

Kings Landing acquaintances 

Someone/s from another camp who see her potential for upsetting the Lannisters’ plans

Those not aligned with the Lannisters who don’t trust her

Those aligned with the Lannisters who do trust her

Those still loyal to the Tyrells

Potential betrothed/lovers (the first would likely have to be of status, the second not necessarily but would probably be a secret)

Anything else you might have in mind! I am open to it all

If you want to plot then here is my discord -  andromache#9873

Sass Master Ryder,Pathfinder of Burns

Romanced companions react to Ryder having no chill

~~~~~~~~~

Jaal- He and his darling one were at a Nexus party, although it is fairly obvious that neither of them wanted to be there.

Even so,Ryder kept up a smiling facede despite wanting to shoot a wall repeatedly. Jaal, however, could not physically contain his annoyance. Finally the two said "hello" and made there rounds enough to retreat off into a corner balconey drinking and complaining about other people to themselves.

Suddenly, an obnoxious laugh rang off from behind them, and Ryder groaned, recognizing it. It was their hometown terror, Celeste,the one person they despised more than anyone in the entire universe, or in this case universes. Not because She was specifically a bully to Ryder, but because she always made it a point to talk about herself and her achievements and how much better she is,was or will be compared to every body else.

When Ryder had heard Celeste had joined the Initiative, they had hoped and prayed they'd never have to be on the same planet as her, let alone city. But there she stood, in all her sneering glory.

"Well,Well Ryder." She smirked "Still getting drunk in the back of parties? I see your slobishness and tastelessnes have stayed in tact all the way out here."

Jaal felt himself getting angry, but before he could say anything, Ryder quipped out "Unlike your engagement."

Celeste spulttered out as Ryder continued.

"Word on the street says that he dropped you like a sack of bricks as soon as he got here. "First to be married in Andromeda" you always bragged. Well congratulations, you the first person I know to be dumped in Andrmeda."

Celeste turned red and stormed away, while Jaal just chuckled at Ryder's firey comeback.

"Well,played,my darling one." He cooed as he wrapped an arm around them. ".....although, I have yet to see these word's you speak of." He added quietly looking at the ground.

"Jaal..." Ryder began with a tired sigh, and he immediately caught on.

"Idiom?"

"Idiom."

Liam- Sara and Liam were attending a sort of fundraiser event to raise awarness and money for the cause of the Initiative restores and repairment. Every thing was going quite smooth, Ryder was smiling and talking out every cent that she could to do her job as pathfinder and better not only the lives of humans, but all the species in Andromeda.

Everything was going smoothly, and Ryder was doing her very best to make a good impression and hold her tounge. Untill she got to an old fashioned half human Asari Heiress, with enough cover up scandals on her to make a best selling series of novels.

Liam and Sara had walked up to the Heiress and her date, which also had the company of 3 other men. She stood their quietly, as the men talked.

When Sara and Liam walked right up to them,she paid no mind...until Sara started to speak.

"Hello," She said sticking out her hand "I'm Ryder, human Pathfinder." Before the men could say, the Heriess pushed down her hand with a gasp.

"Don't you know, your never supposed to open your mouth in the presence unless asked?"

And out of reflex, without missing a beat the sass came pouring out of Sara as she repied with "Oh! Like you do with your legs?"

The Heiress chocked on air to which Sara mutterd underneith her breath about an uneeded demonstration. The Heiress obviously heard and had to go exuse her self.

Liam was awfully quite during this, but thats because he was laughing so hard he couldn't breath.

He weezed out an ariy "Damn,Sara. You cant say that to an aristocrat." Before leaning over and clutching his stomach, audible laughs coming in short breaths.

Sara had to remind him to breath.

Gil- Gil is also a sass master, but nothing could prepare him for this level of savagery. This one is placed into the future after Jill had the baby, a boy by the name of Alec Ryder II, (This is my Headcanon, let me have it). They were having a family Outing, which actually just consisted of Gil visiting mechanics shops for new part, and Scott trailing behind him like a sad,lost puppy with Alec strapped to his chest because Gil has all the credits and he wants to get Icecream.

"Come on Gil!" Scoott whined "Ive waited over 600 years to have Icecream again. The shops right there."

"Just a little longer, Scott." Gil chuckled out. "Let me find this last part, then we'll go for icecream. Scouts honor, love." He pecked Scott on the lips before continuing to shop.

"You were never a Scout,Gil." Scott chuckled.

Suddenly a bystander made a noise of distaste at the husbands affections. "What a disgusting desplay." He sneered "Such a horrific sight should not be seen by a child."

"Your absolute right," Ryder gasped with mock offensiveness "Sir you. should leave, lest you make my son cry with that mug of yours."

The man let out an actual offensed gasp before storming out.

"I changed my mind!" Gil laughed out "Ice cream now. You earned it, big boy." He grabbed Ryder by the hand and lead him to the parlor, which happened to be in the same direction the man stompped off in.

"Hey!"Gil called out after him? "Would you like me to buy you an Icecream for that burn?"

Suvi- This is also in the future, at a PTA meeting.The school was built and expanded upon on Aya, and it has mixed classes that teach all the basic subjects while still educating the children about the other species. Sara and Suvi had adopted Agrarian twins, Ellen and Alec, which were hanging out with Uncle Scott. The children were gone and the claws came out. The girls just let it play out, not really getting involved.

...Until homophobia got thrown into the mix over the "Safety,Security, and purity of the children."

"It is not good for the children," a mother protested. "They are young and impressionable. What if my son see's this and grows up, only to run off with another man like a hoodlim."

People where angry now. Suvi was angry,the anagra were angry. Who was she to lable love? But before anyone else could say something, Sara responded in a calm tone.

"Grow up and run off with another,

Huh? That’s funny. Isn’t that what your ex-husband did,Linda?"

Cue a collective room off "Oooooooo's" as Linda left earily

"Tell Frank and Denis that as pathfinder, Id be glad to attend their wedding!"

Cora- She and Scott were at a Nexus Gala , and Scott was stalking the snack table and Cora spoke with guests and superiors, celebrating there success and making plans for future colonies. Scott couldnt really care less as the moment, and instead concentrated on stacking a tower full of what he hoped are brownies. Suddenly, Tesla, an officer Scott could not stand came up behind him and tsked

"Isn't that your forth plate of food?" She scoffed.

"Dont know," Ryder shrugged, sarcasm dripping from his tone "Isnt that your 3rd husband?" He jesters towards the man Cora was talking to, or atlesst trying to talk to as she choked on her champagne. Apparently they were in ear shot.

She slapped him on the arm for it, but still smiled.

PeeBee- Oh, she is so glad that POC recorded this.She and Ryder were grabbing a drink with POC in tow, when a rather high strung Asari obviously nearing the end of her Matron stage sat next to them and demanded a drink. They ignored her mostly, laughing and drinking among themselves, until she got tipsy and felt the need to comment on PeeBee "as an Asari."

"As an Asari," she sneered "One would think you'd now to dress yourself by now. You've had 100 years of practice yet you wear that? You look like a hobo, nothing matches."

And without missing a beat, Ryder replied. "You know what else doesnt match? The father's of your children.  Or that ugly ass hat your wearing."

"It is a traditional Matriarch head wrap!" She gasped.

"It's hideous." Ryder retorted as she walked away.

PeeBee choked on her whsikey, but still gave an infectious laugh.

"My hero."she playfully cooed "Next rounds on me."

Reyes- Firstly, this dude had to have a titanium balls to even walk up to these two. It was some washed up has-been politician hoping to  gain some shadey connections to get back in the game. He had asked around, and paid off people with the last of his dirty money to find this "Charlatan".

 The real one. 

 He had to get past decoy after fruad after decoy, but he finally  found Reyes. Needless to say he did well to hide his shock at the fact that the King of Kadara port was hidding out in the backrooms of Tartarus locking lips with the Human pathfinder.

The politician stood patiently as the guard announced the guest, causing Reyes to groan and reluctantly break the kiss. 

"Yes?" He hissed, obviously annoyed at the politician's presence,who seemed unphased by his hostility. He stated his case and offered a proposition, to which Reyes consider. "Intresting," Reyes spoke with a smirk "But,Ill have to consort with my companion here. Not only is Ryder the Queen/Second King of Kadara port,  but a Pathfinder as well. Your re-initiation will effect the Initiative, no doubt."

The politician seemed annoyed,but let the two have a brief moment. It was there Reyes learned exactly why he had been replaced. The politician made several baf calls thats resulted in major deaths and civilian risks, had been in countless scandals ,and ignored Judicial rullings for his own gain. He'd screw the Initiative  (and ultiamtly Ryder) sideways which will undoubtedly screw funding and supply to sevral plantes and outposts, including Kadra Port (and Ultimately Reyes)

Reyes refused after learning this and had him black listed .The politician grew hostile at rejection and had to be physically removed from the room by the guards, lest Reyes shoot him and get kicked out by Umi.

"YOU!" he spat out accusingly at Ryder "This is your fault! I almost had him! You need to mind your own business and stay out of grown men's conversations, little girl/boy."

"And you," Ryder replied with mockery just as the politician was being hualed out the door "Need to stay out of married women's beds. But neither of us will be doing what we "need" to any time soon, now will we?"

"Damn," Reyes laughed "Your hot when your sassy." Then he leaned over to picky up where they left off

The politician was still found dead  few days later though, and Reyes only halfway feind innocence.

Vetra(And Lexi, I guess)- Ah, no one has more sass than a sibling. Sassing  each other is hardwired into evry sibling relationship. Ryder was visiting thier twin, who was awake, but still on bed rest. They talking for a bit, but that soon turned into a sassing contest. And ecen even though is was all in could fun, the amount of shade being thrown could blot out the sun. Currently they were talking about their teenage years before getting old enough to join the military,only vaguely aware of Lexi giving Vetra a check up

"Atleast my knees weren't always ashy." The twin quipped.

"Well no duh," Ryder scoffed playfully in a sing-song voice "You applied extra lotion cause you were always on them." 

The twin gasped and put hand of mock hurt on thier chest, then began wacking their sibling with a pillow when they started naming people.

"Ryder!" Vetra chuckled out as lexi smiled shook her  head,making a mental note to keep track of both twins sexual histories.

"That's below the belt, Bro/Sis!" The twin exclaimed as they continued wacked the other with a pillow 

"Oh,like you were with Terry Maclamra behind the bleachers in junior year?" They ended up getting hit even harder.

Vetra had to stay back longer because she laughed so hard she could breath, and swears she saw a tear roll down Lexi's cheek as the leand on the table and bowed her head,hiding the silent laugh.
