EXILE; Day 22 - ’The Tower’ 〖 Jey / ᶜᵒᴿᴿᵘᵖᵗ Astral 〗

SURPRISE! A sequel, with a twist! Dark side of the Lovers card~ Doubling this with my Year of OTP prompts too! Kinda a clash of “You’re the only one I could turn to for help” and AU of Choice!

Allow me to debut my newest undercurrent obsession au~

Basically "what if sh!t went down and Astral became fully corrupted”. Put loosely ssfdgfh. More on that in due time~

But right now I can at least answer this; How does Jey fit in to it?

Well, Astral kinda needs Jey to plain survive because these dark energies are not 'settled'. The corruption will overwhelm and kill Astral if left alone. It needs monitoring and regulating so that the Imbalance doesn’t cause a fundamental breakdown. (hello necessity for the literal Son of Balance~)

As for Jey himself — we know that once you have his loyalty (especially love), nothin' else matters. He’s not ever been fully committed to Astral World, and is sure no stranger to rebellion. And then you’re going to have the person he cares about most in the world ask him to run away together, and leave all else behind…in smoke~? It’s not even a choice.

So there you have it. New villain(?) power couple in the house yo.
