I finished it. Time to scream.
God, for once I wish there was someone there that qPhilza would let down all his walls with and just let himself be weak and let them help and protect him! He's been letting down his walls with the kids but there's still an underlying thing of he has to be the one protecting them and he feels so guilty about leaning on them at all, and honestly he's based to feel that way, he put way too much on them. It's sounding like his reasoning for not relying on the other adults is a combination of not wanting them to think of him as weak or unreliable and a desire for them not to become known weaknesses of his like his kids are already in case his enemy uses them against him. You could argue the Enderking *has* been using his kids against him already by using his desire to provide for them and his love for them to disguise the manipulation of his behavior.
I really really wish Missa was about. In fact I deeply hope Missa is recovered enough from his sickness to log in at least once this week so the kids can at least talk to him about what's happened. The most ideal would be if he got online on Friday.
It is going to be Philza's birthday on Friday. That means either he's going to come back fine and be able to have a birthday party with everyone, and have a reprieve before the Enderking finds some other way to come after him. Or he's not going to come online at all and it's going to be longer before we see him again. Our maybe he'll come on as the Enderking and use his birthday to traumatize all his friends and their eggs XD.
The kids break my heart. Chayanne is constantly getting between Tallulah and qPhilza to protect her if necessary, and he's direct about wanting promises and time frames from his dad for now long he'll be away and when he'll come back. And then there's Tallulah. Where to even begin. This is her papa. The most constant parent she's had through everything she's been through. Not always the best at helping with the problems she has but always trying and always a safe and steady presence in her life. And now she's seeing glowing purple creep down his back as his behavior changes, and I'm sure she can't help remembering someone else with black creeping over their body until it consumed them entirely and they hurt her and her siblings, shot them with a gun. And then he yells at her. The first openly aggressive behavior he's ever shown towards her, and her fears are validated. No wonder she keeps her distance. No wonder she can't trust him. And then he takes them somewhere isolated to deal with the problem and I'm sure as she hesitated getting into that boat that she was remembering the last time she and her siblings were led somewhere. But that was her brother, already in the boat, determined to help his dad any way he could. And that was her papa. She didn't want to lose him either even though he might be already gone. So she gets in anyways. And they go, and her papa tells her and her brother to keep their swords out and be ready to defend themselves. And then she has to be the one to get between him and Chayanne when it's really like her papa is gone and something else is taken control. And oh god the emotion in his voice when he wrestled back that control and tells Tallulah to go to her brother and flee. And to them, it must have seemed like they might not see him again at that point. But he comes back to the house, sounding more like himself again but seemingly there only to day goodbye, telling her he's going to leave her. And Tallulah, still unable to trust this, still crouched in the corner on the bed watching him carefully, realises this could be the last time they ever get to talk. Because no matter how much he might promise to come back, her papa can't hide in his voice that he might not be able to. So she summons all of her courage to make sure she's told him the things she would regret not telling him if he never returned. To hug him one last time at his request even though she's terrified of coming close to him right now. My heart is broken into a million tiny pieces and then ground into a fine powder.
Back to qPhilza. I really love this trait he has where the minute he has an entity to directly confront, even if it is unkillable, he will fight tooth and claw. Seriously, if the Enderking had stuck to being creepy and vague and surrounding qPhilza with blocks and hallucinations, he might still have ground our crowman down. His biggest mistake was trying to taunt qPhilza directly. Because now he has a voice, he has become something qPhilza can fight. I've said it before that qPhilza, even knowing it was a fight he could not win, would punch a creative mode enemy until his knuckles bled and then keep punching if it meant defending his precious family and friends. I honestly don't think the Enderking can win this one. Which worries me, because the next logical step would be for him to go after the kids and use them as a bargaining chip. Or another thing that did cross my mind is that the Enderking may try to use one of the other islanders as his vessel for now, maybe that was one reason that qPhilza is so anxious that none of the others involve themselves in such a dangerous situation. Ugh, I just want him to be coddled like a baby for once, and to let it happen and *feel safe* and not have to hold onto everything so tightly.
I'm gonna leave this here because it's already far too long and I'm beginning to just ramble. If you read this far, I am impressed. I myself have now bled off enough adrenaline to be eepy. I will reblog some stuff and be back to theorize some more tomorrow. Much love <3
See under the cut for my play by play live blog notes.
This little shit. "This will be a short stream I think, I'm a bit eepy." All men do is lie.
OK, so we start with some nice subtle waving corruption behavior in front of friends who don't appear to pick up on it much, and then the thing with getting no saturation which is cool, and now we're dissing on twilight? Not sure how we got here but I'm living for it.
Weird effects to get from a dungeon, aaaaaaand now the enderking is leading him by the nose by highlighting mobs for him to see. I mean, it might have been a coincidence but i chose to believe it was not. XD
Weird noise in the orc camp. And now his shoulders glow. I was a bit in and out of focus listening to this at work, I wasn't paying attention at this point and only came back to check when he got back home.
Yeah, kiddos already talking to each other about what's going on, but pretending everything is fine to dad for now. Early cookie time. *stare*
Of course Chayanne's got all the food already. And now there's crying obsidian all over, but this is fine, it's going to be fine. It's in the house now but just get rid of it, it's going to be fine.
The way the kids stare at him. Oh God it's so awkward. Their behavior is so off, but he's not noticing. They aren't jumping around nearly as much as they usually do. It's such a stark contrast with the wholesome family banter and falling asleep cuddled up together from last stream.
Now he's getting irritable and monologing about how the money is pointless and he just wants blocks. And now he's digging straight down. And saying he's not going to give all the zinc to Bad like he promised. At least he fell into a gay cave and not something more dangerous.
Fit and Bagi are here! Pac too! The kids definitely brought them. Intervention time let's go. Ok they're asking all the careful questions, and look to be muttering amongst themselves too a bit if I'm any judge. They went to talk while Ramon and Empanada chatted with Phil. Now Fit is back to confront him and has sent the kids away. Philza trying to deflect awkwardly and Fit not falling for it at all.
Oh.
The line that Tallulah mentioned someone protecting them and he's activated lore mode this is bad. He's taking Tallulah to have a private talk. He doesn't want people asking questions. He's twitching and yelling. Oh sweet crowfather where art thou.
Tallulah is so brave fr fr. The last time someone got corrupt and angry they pointed a gun at her and her siblings and shot at them.
Oh god our Dadza is so soft for his kids, not even the sneaky corruption lies can break that. The moment he realised Tallulah was scared it entirely broke the trap in his mind. Tallulah keeping her distance is all it took for him to come back.
(Haha, Bagi trying not to intrude but probably also wanting to make sure Tallulah is safe. I really want to see all this from her perspective next XD)
He's back, but Tallulah is still keeping her distance. Chayanne came and immediately crouched protectively on front of Tallulah. That's our boy right there. Philza is talking normal again now, he's going to get the backpack off. We have actual communication again, no secrets promise finally being at least somewhat honored.
RICHAAAAAAS! (He thinks Phil has scoliosis XD Tallulah the angst queen was not happy with him interrupting their serious rp moment XD)
Wings! The wings are safe, it's just his back that got stuff all over. But he's taking the kids away somewhere isolated to deal with this. God I wish he'd let other adults help him. He really seems to be trying hard to look like he can handle everything himself. God I wish he had someone who he could be weak around. Where's Missa!
Telling the kids to keep their swords out, attempt one goes about as well as you might expect. He jumps in the fire to rescue the backpack. Second attempt, Chayanne got the thing and ran. Philza is being scary. Poor Tallulah. Chayanne blows the horn and he has a moment of clarity and tells her to go to him. The realization of what he just did to his kids is setting in now.
Roses, and the dawn. The night is over. But the trauma remains. And as he rejects the need for stuff, the Enderking speaks. Our Enderpookie has a voice! This is what Philza needed. The creeping about was making him anxious, but give him something or someone solid to fight against and he'll fight by any means necessary. In this case, a battle of words and philosophies. It is very cathartic to hear him call the creeping horror a lonely little shit. Interesting that the line is that he's going to keep his wings out and not hide them. He's going to prove himself, he's determined.
But first he's going to make sure his kids know what's going on. Oh god, the two of them huddled on the bed. And Tallulah just stays there in the corner nearly the whole time, she can't trust him, that hurts. He's going to go away until he's better so that they feel safer, but Chayanne insists on having a definite day set for when he'll come back by. The little "papa" and "I still love you regardless" my heart. "Please come back dad i need you" Oh God. The intrinsic understanding that this might not work. That it might be the last goodbye. I'm near certain Tallulah is remembering the time they argued and she went to bed in a huff and then that was the last conversation she had with him face to face before they disappeared. She's making sure to say the things to not have regrets even though she's scared and can't trust him rn. And he's barely holding it together. And then he tells Chayanne not to come looking for him.
And with that, he's gone into isolation. Fuck, what a ride.

[Magi reread] Night 76: Smile
It's been a while, lmao. I did some fandom jumping, was pretty busy, too, but this chapter was dragging behind me, like, come on, last chapter of the arc! Part of the reason I'm back here is bc I'm kinda getting to the part in this Final Arc rewrite where it'd be fucking nice to have some background info on a few characters. I mean, I know stuff in theory, but I also know myself enough to expect random changes during the actual writing process & it'd be a fucking pain if I wrote one version of events in flashbacks, and then went somewhere else in the actual prequel.
ANYWAY, chapter.
Bro, I love some of the final chapters of the arcs titles, especially Smile and Welcome Home (Magnostadt Arc), like, they just stayed in my brain. Why must you hurt me this way, Ohtaka.
I don't recall posting covers of chaptera too often, but this one is just so fucking sweet, man. And sad. It just... really does it for me, y'know? Smiling after everything that's just happened, but also it feels like a promise, especially after Cassim just fucking died like that (I will never recover) - now the three of them are a family. ;;
On a semi-related note, it's kind of what makes it difficult for me to ship any of them with each other. Even excluding Aladdin's age (not that Ohtaka has issues with such things, and boy will you hear it from me, but that's for later), I mentally familyzoned them. Interestingly, I'm more flexible with Cassim and Alibaba, though over time I also grew to prefer to view them as siblings. Like, I had a few CassAli AUs in the past, but I think I also wrote too much of Alibaba perceiving Cassim as his brother to come up with new ones. Now it'd just feel weird.
I'm still waiting for Silk for Steel update, tho.
Also, shoutout to me bc I thought: it's been a while, I'll check quick what I wrote about the previous chapter to kinda regain some context (yes, only now), and, yep, tears in my eyes. It happesn every time.
Ok, chapter.
I was going to ignore him, but, fine, you get a pic. He looks fucking exhausted. And no surprises here, tbh. He was using his magoi in battle and also got a little impaled, too.
Is he, really?
I'm still mad at Al-Thamen resolution or the lack of it. Like, bro, look at this pic, it's so messed up? What the hell? Right after Sinbad says that the fight isn't over, we get this, and, like, yeah, there's a shitton of these guys left here.
I miss Al-Thamen being threatening.
Is it the first time First-Class Singularity is used referring to Sinbad? I might be wrong, but if not first, then one of the first ones.
On a different note, I kinda chuckled, seeing that they refer to Alibaba as Aladdin's immature candidate to be the king, I mean, immature, and yet him and Aladdin managed to change the Flow. Imagine what they can do once they do mature? <3
Can I please get some details, Ohtaka? You mean similar situations as in Kings changing the Flow? What do you mean by that? But on the other hand, kinda makes me think about the Final Arc & the argument that everybody can see a little bit of destiny/change it. Heh.
Side-effect of taking a break from the manga reread is that I'm wondering if it's the first time we have that "Father" mentioned or not. Honest with ya, on my first read I definitely didn't pay attention to this, lmao.
Also, sick art.
Welcome back to my God I love Alibaba. I love kind characters. Of course he didn't want anybody to die, but something about the fact that he says "they surely still had many things they wanted to do", it's so... humanizing. Not of Alibaba (tho him, too), but of these people who died, who we know nothing about - they were just background characters, after all. But to Alibaba they were people who had their own lives and hopes and dreams. They had a meaning just because they existed.
It feels so... contrasting to Hakuryuu. He had no consideration for his own people, he just used them as means to an end, literally brainwashing them in an extremely painful ways that I very much did NOT forget, until they became nothing but puppets full of anger. Feels weirdly ironic, or maybe even metaphorical that he himself was a slave to his own anger, and so he turned those around him into his image. Ha.
Ugh, this smile is so sweet and gentle.
Anise! Wish we knew more of you : (
I'll save you the Rashid salt this time.
This entire page deserves to be there, imo. It's... beautiful.
"The flow never stops, it'll endlessly protect and be the ally of us, the living... that's why although a person's death is a tragic thing... It's no a farewell."
It... actually remind me a little about Avatar: the Last Airbender, specifically this quote "You have indeed felt a great loss, but love is a form of energy, and it swirls all around us. The Air Nomads' love for you has not left this world. It is still inside of your heart, and is reborn in the form of new love. Let the pain flow away."
I'm ignoring the other ones, I was always like, hah, seeing how Rashid is disappointed in them.
Tho still, shoutout to the guy who left his kids' in the care of his wife, and then was disappointed they didn't turn out how he wanted them to.
Bitch I'm sad
*squints* what is this expression
: ' )
Oh, hi, Morgiana.
As much as I complain about Magi's trio being actually a duo + Morgiana, I'll give a point here. It was pretty sweet that as the spirits were leaving, she run up to them.
Welp, that's the end of the chapter.
I checked the next chapter just in case, and, yeah. The anime has some stuff happen here, as in, Kou is close or something & there's some scene on the ship iirc, regarding leaving Balbadd... I complain about the anime a lot - and I will keep doing that - but I think it was a pretty good decision (idk about the execution, I don't remember). Jumping from Night 76 to Night 77 feels kinda weird. I legit had to take a second & check if I didn't miss some chapter.
Maybe Kou was mentioned sometime earlier & I just don't remember, but still. This really is the last pic of the chapter, and suddenly we're in Sindria.
Damn Ohtaka and her stupid timeskips.

Notes- Coach Has a Kid?! Kataoka, Kunitomo, & Todoroki
Return to File
Recovery date: October 5th, 2024
Description: Hi can I request? reader, be in the coaches kid and how the team would treat them ? Please and thank you if you have time ! xx
Notes: Recovered in conjunction with an anonymous researcher, we thank them for their contributions. The coaches deserve more love, I was also going to do Ichidaisan's coach, but we don't really know much about the team outside the pitchers.
Back to directory
Kataoka Tesshin (Seidou)
First off, you ignore him for a week after he tells you he’s stepping down if the team doesn’t make nationals
He only tells you because you live together and you were bound to find out before he told the team, but he swears you to secrecy
You keep quiet because you don’t want to stress out the team, but the third years enlist your help in training the team so they’ll make nationals
Now, you’re the same year as Miyuki
All previous years of the team treat you like a little sibling, you always watched practice after school
Yuki’s year were the last to regard you as a little sibling, Miyuki’s year regard you as a close peer, and the current and future first years think you’re the best Senpai
And that’s before they find out you’re the coaches kid
Everyone calls you by your first name at your insistence, so it’s not until one of the first years see your name written out that anyone realizes
Also, it’s Furuya who sees your name first because he’s following you when you change your shoes
He doesn’t put it together, I’m sorry he’s almost as dumb as Sawamura, and it’s Kanemaru who puts things together
Kanemaru: Does anyone know Y/n-senpai’s last name? Furuya: Kataoka. Sawamura: Ha! That’s the same as the general’s name! Kanemaru: … Wait, is Y/n-senpai coach’s kid? … Y/n-senpai!
Anyways, the team loves you and no one respects you
Like, we’re talking Sawamura levels of disrespect from everyone
Not that you care, in fact Kataoka was worried you might have trouble making friends because of him
Friends are not a problem, you basically gain a hundred brothers and a few sisters
Kunitomo Hiroshige (Inashiro)
Everytime someone learns he has a kid they’re shocked
It, makes him less menacing? No, no it doesn’t they take that back
You are the same year as Itsuki
Mei is even more of a menace when he finds out, you’re his new favorite underclassman
He begs you to try and convince coach of things
Masa-san keeps saving you, he encourages you to kick Mei’s ass
You don’t out of consideration for your father’s team and his role as the ace
However it gives you the chance to perfect your icy glare, you and Masa-san end up as Mei’s babysitters
When Masa graduates he jokingly says he’s leaving Mei to you
Itsuki is your bestie, he was the first one to find out the coach was your dad
You don’t visit practice when you’re younger, and Kunitomo is a very private person so only the staff know about you because he’s had to call in sick once or twice or take a day off
And like, one or two students who’ve asked about the picture of you in his office
He’s a good dad, despite what his demeanor might make some people think
Back to Itsuki finding out, he asks you about it during lunch on your first day
It’s your little secret because no one else can fathom the idea, so no one asks
You stop by practice one day with a packed dinner for your dad and everyone tries to stay cool but they’re radiating confusion
Y/n: Dad. Dad! Where do you want me to leave your dinner. Kunitomo: In my office, please. Itsuki: Y/n-(chan/san)! Good evening! Mei: DAD?! Masa: Mei, shut up.
Masa-san also knows because you were really sick once just after he became captain
So Kunitomo felt he had to explain because he wasn’t sure how much time he would need to take off
Todoroki Raizou (Yakushi)
You get adopted
I’m sorry, but Raichi basically got adopted and so did you
You’re a year older than Raichi, so Sanada’s year and your dad maybe tries to set you up
If men are your thing, if not he just wants you two to be friends
Also, I say the teams adopts you but you more adopt the team, you get so many new brothers
You’re the manager, Raichi got infinite baseball playing skills and you got the logistics
The brains and the brawns
You’re especially close with Mishima and Akiba because your dad trained them
Also, it was never a secret Todoroki was your dad
Todoroki: You’re going to take me to nationals! Y/n: Shut up old man. Todoroki: Wha- Y/n, my darling eldest, I would expect this from Raichi but you? Y/n: Well Raichi’s not here, so someone has to keep you in line!
You become an older sibling to all the players, even the third years
It’s just you, your dad, and Raichi so you’re kind of used to taking care of people
You have a part time job, Sanada makes sure you’re taking care of yourself because you don’t seem to share your father’s lax attitude
That’s not to say Todoroki leaves all responsibility to you, for all his shortcomings he does try to be a good dad for you and Raichi
The team loves you, and you may look after them like little brothers but they take that role very seriously
No one messes with their manager

I was thinking about how, on the Isle, instead of death, there's the Sleep. Something that should have killed them instead sends them into a coma until they're recovered enough to wake.
But you also said that for every Sleep they suffer, it takes something away from them, as though a part of them did die after all. It makes them weaker - physically, mentally. Every time it happens, they wake up a little bit less than they were before.
Suppose you have parents that do care about their kids, because not every parent on the Isle can be horrible. Some parents do care for their children and want what's best for them, insofar as they can have that on the Isle.
But then they fall into the Sleep. Maybe they got sick. Maybe there was a fight or battle. Whatever the reason, many parents, good and bad, would have died several times over the course of their children's childhood if not for the Sleep.
And they wake up, time and again, and are weaker, each time. Maybe it's mentally; they can't focus long enough to do much. Maybe it's physically; they're ill, and can't care for their children.
And so you have children on the Isle whose parents do care for them but, thanks to the Sleep, cannot actually do anything concrete about that. So you have an entire generation of children being neglected and left almost entirely to their own devices.
Yes, that's pretty much correct, and that's why I think my interpretation is more cruel than letting them actually die, there's stuff of nightmares behind the apparently light and silly Descendants (which I find very compelling, tbh).
The idea of decent parents struggling with terrible living conditions and their kids suffering for it is what makes the punishment most cruel, the "good" idea was to teach the villains to care by using their own children so they'd choose to make themselves a good life for their sake, but it just, sort of backfires when the living conditions are pitiful and the only way to grant kids a semi-decent life is either become minions or get worse criminals. It's more or less the reason why prisons don't actually lower criminality rates: if you give people no better choice, they'll fall back into bad roads, or even worse than before.
About the permanent damages, I meant to tackle the issue when talking about Jay's mother, in his case, Jafar took the chance to have complete control over Jay and it's not the only one.
Oh, good parents! In one of my fics I'll have a mention of Claudine's mother stabbing Frollo's comatose body every week or so to keep him under. Will, Anastasia Tremaine's husband, in my verse went under the Sleep two or three times and the last is when Anthony decides to take things into his hands and becomes the protector of the family in his stead. Facilier, on the other hand, manages to avoid death so swiftly that he's basically the same as he was before the Isle. Zarina depleted her magic and that's why Harriet had to raise her siblings... And so on.
There are many instances worthy of being explored, the idea of a not-death but with consequences, short or long-term as it can be, has many ramifications, many more than just death can have imho.

We definitely need some Ichiru/Maria head cannon's if you don't mind (me personally I always know that if they were to start a family they'd be the best parents because the last thing they want is for their kids to feel lesser if they were born with any disabilities or illness)
A/N: Of course I don't mind! I'd love to write my headcanons about them!
-If Ichiru hadn't died and had reunited with Maria, I feel like Maria would be the one to help him sort out his emotions. Maria has perfect patience as she helps Ichiru recover from losing Shizuka and she honestly becomes his rock. Being Shizuka's dear relative and accomplice, she is the only one who understood the depths of their bond and tries to covince Ichiru that they should be leading the lives Shizuka would want them to live. -Ichiru will slowly return her feelings as he sees what an amazing woman Maria is growing up to be. Maria's efforts trying to protect humans from violent vampires and human terrorists posing as vampires is something he deepl admires but he's growing ever so scared of losing her. -One time when she came back still healing from her injury, Ichiru snapped and finally confessed how much he had grown to love her. -Maria and Ichiru wasted no time getting married, these were dangerous times and Ichiru knew there was no other girl who had his back like Maria did so why not? -They are a rather cheerful couple, Maria's boldness and Ichiru's playful streak generally creating some kind of vibrant energy that could be felt whenever they're together. They're that couple who's always exchanging witty jokes and roasting people at the party and how things could be livened up a bit in the corner at soirees. -Surprisingly, that's how they actually became casual friends with Senri and Rima, they love joining in on the roasts. -Ichiru begged Yuki to turn him into a vampire so he had enough strength to protect Maria and their unborn child. -They named their daughter after Shizuka, no doubt about it. -Whilst Zero hadn't been too fond of Shizuka's name, his niece had quickly wrapped her uncle around her little finger. Zero was happy Ichiru had found his happiness, and gladly came over at any of their gatherings. -Zero was also the person Ichiru always called if he needed a babysitter for Shizuka. -Before becoming parents, they had a good talk about their genetics, considering Maria's illness has some risk of inheritance and Ichiru is unsure how his own weird genetics will pass on. They discussed how they would raise their child if it were frail, estimated how the danger of being linked to the Kuran monarchy and the Hunters Association president could impact their child and composed various back-up plans including a safe house similar to how Ruka and Akatsuki raised their child away from the danger. Because they want their child to be happy and safe, blissful of the cruelty in a way Ichiru never had been. -But what touched Maria the most, was Ichiru going over the risks that might happen to her once she got pregnant. Because childbirth is risky, especially if you're chronically sick. Maria started tearing up at Ichiru's concern on how the pregnancy would impact her health and promised him she would take it easy. -Shizuka II was thankfully already an adult by the time Maria had to form the Resistance. Ichiru was so proud of his wife, and he knew Shizuka would have been so proud of Maria and touched they named their daughter after her. -Because Ichiru never died, thankfully that weird and wasted clone plotline never happened. -Ichiru instead got injured during the final fight at the Emperor and the scientist's lair. -During Ichiru's recovery at their safe house, he actually knocked up Maria again. -Shizuka II immediately rushed back home so she could help her parents and take as much of her parents tasks around the house because they both physically deserved the rest. -Ichiru couldn't help but muse that Shizuka was just as caring of an older sibling as Zero had been towards him.

instead of a big formal post im just going to continue to spit out random wrought lore when i feel like it :)
WROUGHT LORE DUMP HOORAY 🔒😈
• wrought killed his abusive parents when she was 7 to escape with her little sister but his sister got sick with something mundane like a cold and died anyways within the week. he has never fully processed or recovered from this.
• wrought doesn’t know how old he is <3 (its about 35 probably) but he has no clue he doesn’t know his birthday or anything i don’t think his parents celebrated it in the first place but also. the…brain damage from how she grew up plays a part
• pre-tadpole he was in an extremely toxic situationship and with a dragonborn named epitaph who was a Bad Person. wrought wasn’t good either but in comparison to epitaph she’s an angel lmao. toxic butch on butch violence yay :)
• he LOOOOOVES lying its her favorite pastime :) think shawn spencer from psych type lying. like ridiculous levels of tomfoolery and shenanigans >:)
• he’s EERILY good at mimicking/changing his voice. she used a completely different voice from his actual voice around the companions until one day he just dropped it and everyone was like “DID ANYONE REALIZE THAT WASN’T HIS VOICE?!?!”
• continuing from the last 2 points wrought doesn’t understand how to be a Person unless she’s mimicking it for most of his life. wyll is key in him understand who He is and how to like. be okay with Feeling!!! [my brother’s ocs are also MAJOR factors, one of them and wrought were roommates before the epitaph incident when wrought got too…unsettling and scared him off but they reconnect and are like siblings :’)]
• for some in game mechanic/play lore a BIG defining thing was he let astarion kill him when drinking his blood. wrought SOMEHOW hasn’t died after living so stupid and dangerously (and being yknow homeless. yay urchin bg) and basically has no fear of death now as long as its weird and for a bit or something. just very curious and unfazed by the whole deal and thought it would be cool to see what would happen if a vampire drank all his blood. wasn’t even mad @ astarion the next day which i think freaked astarion out a bit because well. thats weird wrought!!!!
• wyll is wrought’s first REAL relationship he’s NEVER had these feelings!!!! he slept with people all the time (milfs mostly bc they are obsessed with her 😌) whether for fun or mostly to get info/steal from people lmao…the closest to a “relationship” was epitaph which was bad and fucked up in every way and wouldve gotten wrought killed if epitaph hadn’t just happened to die

Trust Me, Obey Me Update
I do live, the Project is Still Going
I know it's been radio silence since I last updated you guys, so I'm here with both a very brief explanation as to said silence, and then a roadmap for ya'll to prove I'm not nuts and I do know what I'm doing, sort of XD
We had a lot of family activities for quite some time, and as family's important to us, I put all of my energy into that
NaNoWriMo started and I was extremely excited about that and spent some time working on the project. I got to 25k words about 4 days into NaNo, until...
My one year old got sick. His sickness lasted 5 minutes.
I got sick. My sickness was UNHOLY and BRUTAL and I am still recovering, even though this was a week ago. For various reasons, I had no back up, so... mentally, I'm not sure how I got this far.
ON TO THE ROADMAP
Current objective: Finish the second route for Chapter One.
Chapter One currently consists of just the option to choose the Nobility route, wherein the Player and their sibling are the children of well-off, successful parents who have done very well for themselves as Merchants.
The second route will feature the ability to be an orphan, wherein the Player and their sibling were orphaned after the brief but hard-hitting plague Mage Rot took out both of their parents. Both will roughly end in the same scenario, with the Player being whisked off to attend the College for Mages, which in this world, is required for ALL mages.
Next Objective: Chapter 2, the College Vignette Years
After I finish the second route- and barring editing that will likely happen to both routes, as the Merchant route is still very much in a rough draft state- there comes the College Years.
Chapter 2 will consist of a collection of vignettes that take place over the course of a decade, as the player and their sibling grow up in the Mage's College together.
The player will be able to choose the episode that plays out each year that passes, making for a minimum of 20 vignettes to choose from that play out in entirety, but after completion, skip to the next vignette.
There's no Earth-shattering reason for this- the ending will not be affected by your choices. My entire plan with this game was so that players wouldn't feel pressured to make the "right" choice all the time based on what ending they wanted, but that choices that drive what ending they get were super obvious, and other choices were purely for their own enjoyment, allowing them to feel like they can still be themselves... without getting a bad ending.
So during Chapter 2, you can choose episodes that entertain you or interest you. They'll play out in entirety, but after each episode ends, the year progresses to the next year, where you'll be able to choose your next episode.
Yes. This is a lot. It's going to take a while lmfao. It's also one of the things I'm most excited to write.
Following Objective: Returning Home
This isn't as fleshed out as Chapter 2 is, but mostly because I'm still in the state of fleshing out Chapter 2. Make no mistake- I know how this story ends, in all endings. At this stage, you and your sibling will return home together to find that things have changed drastically in your absence.
Some Problems
I'll be frank lmao, there are some things I'm juggling in my head with indecision. Some parts of the story I am absolutely SOLD on, but my initial plan for how the Player's past would play into the main story isn't as solid or as unique/special as I'd have liked. I'm now struggling with how to better incorporate the pasts in a way that doesn't feel like just replacing a character with a different one, based on who your childhood villain is.
There is an overarching plot that will really pick up starting in Chapter 3, involving a vast mystery that you can either solve, or mess up, depending on who you're trying to impress. There is a Good Ending and a Bad Ending, based entirely on who you choose to go with.
Because I'm trying to make choices very obvious, there isn't going to be as much of a sense of mystery for the player, unfortunately, in who the "bad ending" really belongs to. I'm sure most of you kind of know already. That is a draw back to this kind of formatting, but I still want to go ahead and experiment with it, partly because I do really wish there was a way to actually "be yourself" and still have the freedom to get the ending you want, regardless of your personality. Endings or characters requiring you to be something you're not always bugged me a little, lmao.
At any rate, there's still a lot of fiddling I'm doing, but I've got entire notebooks devoted to the drama, shenanigans, and episodes you can choose in Chapter 2, and I'm genuinely so stoked to write it lmao. I already have little snippets started because I'm just that impatient XD

Autobiography
I was born during the summer, on the 10th day of March 2004 in the busy city of Las Pinas. We are three siblings in the family and I was the third. Unfortunately, my brother Ruzel died when he was still an infant. I was raised by my grandparents from my father's side because my parents have to work for the betterment of our family, they say. I grew up a typical way, Ido what other children would do but I didn't grow close and open to my family. Maybe it's because of the different treatment of my parents between me and my brother, Selwyn. I was always left behind during vacation trips because someone had to be at home to feed the dogs and take care of our grandmother from my mother's side. It was tough but I don't really mind it, after all, that's the thing that changed me, shaped me, and made me become the Zandrew I am today. Fast forward to when I started my high school life, I experienced the sign of coming of age and of course, I experienced my first love. It was so cruel and chaotic but I am thankful that it happened because it also help me become what I am now. There I developed the thinking that sometimes, something is just too cruel for us to have so it'll leave. Sometimes, things will not go the way we planned them and we have to accept that fact. That is also the time when I learned how to play the guitar. I used a youth choir guitarist but my way of playing the instrument does not really match up, it was more of a rock and roll manner. I was forced to quit the choir because of the way I played during that one mass. But that did not stop me from playing the guitar because I often play songs at school with my other classmates and I was part of a school band. The year was 2017 and during the month of November, my father got sick with tuberculosis. He was immediately brought to the hospital near their office. He stayed at the intensive care unit for almost one month because his condition was so bad. That is the time when I experienced the holiday season alone, the Christmas and New Year passed by without a single glimpse of happiness. He got discharged in January 2018 and started recovering for 6 months before going back to work. Days passed by and the year 2019 came, the year the COVID-19 pandemic started. It was my birthday when the quarantine started, it was only a one-week suspension that turns out to be years. At first, it was hard because I can't do the things that I always do but then I find ways to do something just to erase boredom. I experienced online and modular classes during my last grade as a junior high school student, it was something foreign to a student because we are used to always going to school every day. I accepted academic commissions that got me paid 500 pesos per quarter. I graduated with honors and applied as a senior high school student at Emilio Aguinaldo College - Cavite. I am currently enjoying my last year as a high school student and college life is around the corner. This is very tiring because I joined too many extracurricular activities, I am part of the school press which is The Emilian Chronicler, I also played basketball for HUMSSstrandduringourintramurals and now I am playing for SHS12, I am also playing for a band that will perform in our school for an event. My life is a busy life but I still enjoy the things I do because I enjoy exploring different things. I do have a lot of dreams and a lot of other things I wanted to do, I guess I am an explorer. Things that happened to me since I was a child are the things that made me up today, I am thankful for everything because it will not be the same if something was missed. I still have a long way to go and I am sure that there will be a lot of things that will shape me and help me shape my adult figure.

I don’t know what I am supposed to being doing.
I’m dealing with this grief and it’s hard to navigate. I feel guilty for being sad and I feel guilty for feeling angry, and I feel guilty for all of the resentment.
I already had been dealing with a lot this year. The last few years actually. Maybe I did this to myself. I separated myself from my family a long time ago to give myself peace. I needed to. I moved across the country because I was so desperate to try and start a new life. But that’s really not working great for me is it.
My dad died last week and I have been dealing with all alone. I am having a hard time talking to anyone about because my dad was my own personal bully growing up and I hated him. I hated him for being alive and I hated him for giving me life. I hated him for how he treated my mum, sister and myself. I even hated him for how he treated my brother.
My brother was his pride and joy and everyone fucking knew it.
But why do I still feel this insane sadness. Is it the anger that’s causing it? Is it the confusion? Is it because it’s not how I pictured it ending?? Maybe I am fucked up but I kind of always thought that he would get sick and go on the apology tour and give us the acknowledgment that we deserved. That’s all I ever asked for. I just wanted him to acknowledge the pain he caused. I will never get it now.
I think the other that’s just absolutely eating me alive is that my fucking father hurt all of us so fucking bad but he moved on and picked out a new family. And got fake married to woman who told me I needed to forgive and forget so many years ago. He definitely cheated on my mum so many times. Probably with her too. They got fake married less than a month ago and had their honeymoon too. He posed in pictures with people I had never seen before. He posed with her kids like they were his own. Like a picture perfect little family. How is that fair? He got to move on like we never existed or mattered. As if I didn’t have to spend years trying to recover from the damage he made. I am not okay from any of it. I have been trying to years and years for cover up these scars and forget they ever happened. Then he just dies in his sleep!?!
Only one of out like six of his siblings have said anything to me. They are all so concerned with my brother and his fake wife and her kids. They have all forgotten that I exist. The pain I went through doesn’t exist. The trauma I went through doesn’t exist. Nothing about me exists.
If nothing about me exists then why am I feeling all of these things. Why do I feel this way. Why can’t I talk about it with anyone. It feels like everybody just wants me to be fine but I can’t be. And I don’t know why.

“I LOST HOPE, BUT I SURVIVED”
Anyone can get sick with COVID-19 and become seriously ill or die at any age. It can spread from an infected person’s mouth or nose in small liquid particles when they cough, sneeze, speak, sing or breathe.
Year 2020, My mother got sick and her body is getting weak. But, my mother kept on working to help my father to provide our needs during that time. One day, my mother experienced symptoms like Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, Muscle aches, Chills, Sore throat, Runny nose, and Headache. One night she asked me, “May pang amoy ka ba? Bakit wala akong maamoy? Kunin mo nga yung pabango susubukan ko amuyin.” I replied “Meron naman.” At that time, My mother started watching from YouTube some people who are experiencing that kind of virus to know what the symptoms are. My mother was hoping that her thoughts were not correct.
Few days ago, I heard her calling my uncle that she wanted to go to the hospital to have some tests. My uncle wanted to go with my mother to the hospital but some of my aunt's kept telling my uncle not to go with my mother but my uncle insisted and he accompanied my mother to the hospital.
My mother went to the hospital and the doctor advised her that she needs to get isolated while the result of the test is not yet out.
“Nung nalaman ko na kailangan ko ma-isolate nahirapan talaga ako naisip ko mga kailangan ko gawin nun bilang mother niyo at natatakot din ako na hindi ko na magawa mga bagay na kaya ko gawin kasi hindi ko naman alam kung mabubuhay pa ako o hindi dami natakbo sa isip ko nun kasi that time ang dami na balita na namatay sa Covid diba?”
Few days have just passed, the result came out and the doctor said that my mother tested positive for Covid-19 and that was last August 2020 she was 35 years old at that time. It really affects my mothers job and also her health. My mother was taking six medicines at that time. My mother needs to drink medicine continuously to feel better.
My auntie gave my mother a medicine named “Lianhua Qingwen '' a Chinese medicine that is used for the treatment of influenza. That will also help to improve lung ventilation, remove toxins, and help to suppress the viability of SARS-CoV.
After my mother's medication, me and my siblings also needed to have tests to make sure if we also had a Covid-19. We need to wait 14 days again to know if we are positive or not. When the results were finally out the doctor called my mother to tell what the results are and luckily we are negative from Covid-19. When my mother finally recovered, one of her sisters kept on avoiding her. My mom was hurt that time but she understood, she said that maybe because her sister wanted to be safe. “Naiintindihan ko naman kasi baka nga nag iingat lang siya pero masakit kasi kahit magaling na ako parang akala niya mahahawaan ko pa rin siya.”
“Mahirap na nakakalungkot, mag isa sa kwarto non wala akong nakakausap kaya ang ginawa ko nun nilibang ko sarili ko. Sobrang thankful ako sa mga tumulong sakin nun kasi mas namomotivate ako tulungan pa lalo ang sarili ko dahil tinutulungan din nila ako, naramdaman ko talaga na hindi ako mag isa.”
Remember that struggles do not always end, sometimes this is the lesson you need to learn. That will make you stronger and give you strength to conquer your weaknesses.

It had been 24 Hours Since your first encounter with “Tombstone” and trying to figure out what universe this man had come from since he had not come from your’s, Or The Other Two Peter’s Universes.
“Hey, How Are We Not Sure That This…Thing Is Not From Your Universe?” Said The Peter Who Looks To Be The Oldest Of All Of Them.
“Because, I have never met him before, He is looking for spiderman, And My Spiderman Has Never fought him so what Does he want from me?” Said Your Peter Who Was Obviously Stressed Out, And Worried About This New Threat.
“Well, Did You Spit On His Sidewalk? You Know That Sidewalk Is Extremely Important To Him.” Said Ned To His Best Friend, Causing His Peter To Roll His Eyes, And Laugh A Little, Being Able To Relax Some.
“But, What If This Guy Makes Things Turn Out Like The Last Time? I Don’t Want To Have To Lose Everyone Again, I Can’t Lose Everyone Again.” Said Peter With MJ Coming Up To Him, And Hugging Him. “Especially, You.” Peter Say’s Looking Up At MJ.

Putting Your Hand On His Shoulder, And Him Placing His Hand Over Yours, You Decided To Finally Break The Silence.
“I Lost Who I Felt Would Be Like My MJ Too.” You Begin Before He Cuts You Off.
“You Don’t Have To Tell Me Anything.” He Says With A Slight Smile On His Face.
“No, No, I Want To, It Would Be Nice To Get To Talk About Him, With Someone Else That Understands.” You Say While Looking At Him.
“Ok, Well Then, Please, Continue.” He Says Gesturing You To Continue With What You Were Saying.
“I Met Him When I Went With My Father On A Business Trip. They Needed A Doctor To Check In On These Siblings Who Had A Bad Reaction To Something That We Would Later Find Out Was Actually A Bad Reaction To An Experiment That Could Have Easily Killed Them. I Spent A Lot Of Time With Them While They Were Recovering, At the time I Was About 15 When We Met, They Were About 6 Months Older Than I Am. He Was Always Just Really Cocky And Annoying, But Damn, Was He Cute. They Had The Whole Operation Set Up As A Happy Family, Whose Children Had Just Happened To get Sick, So When I Asked My Father If I Could Go Spend The Summer With Them, Since They Were The Only Friends That I Had, And Them Being Ok With Me Coming There For The Summer, Since I would Be a extra experiment, I went, And That Is How I Got my powers. We were only allowed to have Contact with the people there, so developing feelings was not really that difficult. He pissed me off A Lot and annoyed me, constantly being like, “Oh, I know that you are in love with me.” And, “Why are you staring at me? Wondering What Is Underneath All Of This? Because If That is the case Sweetheart, All You Have To Do Is Ask, And I Will Happily Show You.” It pissed Me off so much that It made me Blush, Anyway’s I’m getting side tracked, They called my dad and faked me getting some sort of special scholarship to a basically Ivy league kind of high school, so that I Could stay there. I Was There For About A Year Before Everything Happened. Even though I was being basically tortured every day, He always made it better. Then One Day, We Got Into This Huge Fight, Because I Went Out To Help Them Fight When I Wasn’t Ready, And When I Asked Him Why He Cared So Much, He Just Shut Me Up And Kissed Me. From then on we were inseparable. His Sister Loved Us Together, Especially Since She Knew About Our Feelings For Eachother Long Before We Would Ever Admit It To Each Other. One day something happened to where they were recruited by some weird thing to go To America, And Fight For Some Cause. When He Kissed Me Goodbye, I Never Knew That, That Would Be The Last Time I Got To Kiss Him. He Got Shot, And Killed Doing So, And Then I Never Got To See Him Again.” You Gave Him The Long Version Of Everything, For some reason it felt like you could just share these kinds of things with him.
“Wow, I Am So Sorry Y/n.” He said coming closer to Wipe the Tear’s Falling Off of your face, He Expected You To Lean Away From Him, And You Did Too, But You Didn’t Instead, You Leaned Into Him, And Let Him.
“What was His Name?” He asked, You Realizing That You Never Actually Told Him His Name, Smiling A Little Bit, You Told Him.
“His Name Was Pietro Maximoff.”

Happy Prompt (if you feel like it): WWX being the genius/ex first disciple of great scet that he is realizes they can't sustain the Burial Mounds. So he comes up with a Plan to make them all dissappear. Knowing how important lineage is so them, he asks them to give up the Wen name and take up Wei. (The wens are mostly common folk who just want to live so they agree). He the proceeds to hide them among other clans. People who have met and remember all the good young master Wie always did. He hides them among the Jiang and Nie. (I always head cannon that part of WWX'S flirty reputation comes from him helping women who are in bad situations/ NHS somehow finds out/knows and begins to help him. I figure theyhad to get several Lan women out. Mama Lans ghost helps?). JC knows but ignores it, they aren't WENS anymore, so his pride can leave it be. I'm not sure if A'yuan would still end up with Lan Zhan? But then WWX, WN, and WQ all fake thier deaths and go travel as rogue cultivators. But now WWX has all these living and dead people praying to/for him as the patron Saint of lost causes? And he accidentally becomes an immortal without realizing it? To the absolute fond disgust of WQ, of course. Anyway, I figure old Jin perv still pulls his bullshit at a discussion conference and between NHS, JYL, and LWJ? They somehow clear everyone's nsme. And then newly immortal WWX rocks up in there (to the horror of the Lan Elders who now have to face thier own bullshit/ hypocrisy) and lives happily ever after.
I think I read a prompt or a fic somewhere with the concept of the Wens hiding in plain sight.
________________________
The thought came to him out of nowhere.
It had been a peaceful day with the Wens as he farmed, invented and tinkered with various incomplete contraptions when Wei Wuxian was struck with a thought: they could not continue like this.
Wei Wuxian wasn’t an idiot. He knew that they couldn’t sustain themselves in the Burial Mounds. Their crops hardly prospered, one by one the more elderly individuals of the Wens got sick and died, the resentful energy messed with everyone’s temperament, the cultivators never stopped trying to break his wards.....the list went on and on.
He had to come up with a plan. He thought they could live here for a time, but that was just wishful thinking.
With this in mind, he takes the next few days to come up with a concrete plan.
...............................
The first task, and perhaps the most important one, is to ask the Wens to give up the Wen name. It would be easier from then on.
As he presented this suggestion, he was surprised by how readily they agreed. He knew how important lineage was to them, so the rapidness of them giving up their name was shocking.
“Would you......take up my name?” Wei Wuxian asked quietly.
The Wens were silent before cheering. Wei Wuxian didn’t know how to react to this. The Wens told him that they were more than happy to accept his name since they were his family.
Wei Wuxian held back the tears and laughed happily instead as he went on to tell him the next plan of action: hiding them in plan sight.
Various people from various clans owed him favors and remembered the good in him, as they were more than happy to take on the refugees he hid away now that they were no longer Wens.
They had to do this quietly and slowly though. It would be suspicious if a large group of people suddenly left Yiling all at once. So Wei Wuxian took each of them to different places. Some of them went back to their original homes, some went to the Nie, some to the Yao, some to the Ouyang clan.
He even sends some to the small village of women who he helped run away from their horrible home situations.
It was a little tricky with Nie, but Nie Huaisang pulls through and Nie Mingjue suspects nothing.
He sends some to the Jiang and Jiang Cheng grudgingly accepts them, knowing that they are no longer Wen.
And for A’ Yuan.......He sends A’ Yuan to Lan Zhan, who is familiar with A’ Yuan. Wei Wuxian sends a letter to Lan Zhan asking him to meet and instead of appearing, A’ Yuan is there in his stead. The letter to Lan Zhan details what to do with A’ Yuan and to hide his identity.
Wei Wuxian trusts that Lan Zhan would take his suggestion and tell his brother and uncle that A’ Yuan was a child that Lan Zhan was asked to take care of by a dying mother.
Wei Wuxian watches from afar as Lan Zhan takes A’ Yuan away and takes the last step in ensuring that the cultivation world forgets him: He fakes his, Wen Qing’s and Wen Ning’s deaths. There’s enough corpses in the Burial Mounds and ones with their physique to replace the Wens and him. He gossips to the town that he’s going to destroy his weapon, the Seal, and subsequently fakes an explosion of resentment, quickly disappearing with the Wen siblings to a random direction.
He always thought how nice it would be to be like his parents and be rogue cultivators. He guesses that he’ll find out now.
..................................
Years pass and Wei Wuxian makes decent salary by taking care of monsters in the area. Wen Qing is a doctor, of course, and Wen Ning becomes her assistant.
They move to a little village near Dongying and settle down there. The people there a little more open to demonic cultivation and dark arts and don’t bat an eye at Wei Wuxian using such means.
Wei Wuxian invents more contraptions, selling them under a false name in towns far away from Dongying.
One day, on a chance night hunt near Yunmeng, Wei Wuxian hears whispers and gossip about Nie Huaisang, Lan Wangji and Jiang Yanli clearing his name and capturing the actual people responsible.
He’s happy to hear this. Overjoyed. But that doesn’t mean he’ll gladly return to the cultivation world. He’s had enough of that life.
He walks around town for a bit longer, catching bits of gossip here and there. As explores the town, wine jug in hand, he nearly chokes around a mouthful of wine as he sees a small shrine encasing a statue of his likeness. What.....the hell??
He quickly asks around and finds out that people are praying to him for protection. Wei Wuxian squirms a little at this, glad he’s wearing a weimao to cover his face.
All of this...praying makes him uncomfortable. Not long ago, people were spitting on his name and now he’s suddenly become some sort of Patron for protection? The change is remarkable and cements Wei Wuxian’s decision to firmly stay out of the cultivation world.
People’s opinions change like a tide and Wei Wuxian doesn’t want to stick around long enough for them to switch back. He sighs, disposing of his empty jug, and leaves the town.
.......
Surprisingly, that’s not the end of the changes.
He got careless on a night hunt and ends up with the claw of a yaoguai piercing him all the way through his stomach. When the yaoguai pulled out its claw, though......Wei Wuxian healed quickly. Too quickly.
He recovers from the shock at this and finishes off the yao.
What just happened?
.
.
A quick trip to Wen Qing answered everything.
“Congratulations.” Wen Qing says dryly. “You’re an immortal.”
“........What.”
Wen Qing sighs, “From what you told me, you healed unnaturally quickly, right?”
Wei Wuxian nods.
“There have only been records of immortals recovering that quickly. Even Wen Ruohan healed slower than you did.”
“But I don’t have a core???”
“You do. Sort of.” Wen Qing replies. “I’m actually surprised you haven’t you felt it.”
“.....” I mean, I did think it was odd that I didn’t freeze to death in the winter or die of hunger when money became tight over these years, but I thought those were side effects of demonic cultivation! Wei Wuxian quickly goes through the motions of feeling for his core, willing the surge of hope he felt down.
And he......didn’t feel a core. He felt more of a large mass of energy congregated in his dantian.
Wei Wuxian is glad that he is sitting down right now because he feels very faint. “But.....this......how?”
“Hmm. Well, from what I’ve been hearing, you’ve become some sort of Patron Saint?” Wei Wuxian nods. “It’s rare, but cultivators can gain power from prayers. Take Wen Ruohan for example.”
“He became powerful through the same means?”
“Yes. Well, his people believed him to be all powerful, not so much as what people are praying to you. As the Sunshot alliance chipped down on his people, so too did they chip down on Wen Ruohan’s power.”
“So if people stop praying to me, I’ll stop being immortal.”
“Yes and no. Right now, there’s just a mass of energy concentrated there. It’s basically unrefined energy. All you have to do is refine that power into a core and cultivate normally. Otherwise, yes. You will lose this power as soon as people stop praying to you.”
“I see.......”
Wen Qing raises an eyebrow and brandishes her needles. “What are you doing just sitting here? Go and cultivate!”
“Aiya, Qing-jie! I’m in shock here, give me a moment to absorb this all!”
“I have patients to see! Get your ass to your room and cultivate!”
“Are you my mom or something?”
Wen Qing’s expression turns thunderous.
Wei Wuxian didn’t want to provoke her any further despite wanting to banter more and left to his room.
..................................
“You should visit your siblings.” Wen Qing says one day. “And Hanguang-Jun. I want to hear about how A’ Yuan is doing.”
“Where did this come from?”
“Wei Wuxian.” Wen Qing says patiently. “It’s been over a decade. Your name and our name has long since been cleared. People no longer hate you. And.....they miss you. Your siblings have commemorated the day you “died” and go into mourning for that day. Hanguang-Jun is a little subtler but he wears a mourning sash now.”
“They’ll be better off without me.”
“Says who?”
“The rest of the world.” Wei Wuxian says weakly.
“And why should you care for their opinion? You never seemed to mind it.”
“Ummm.....Lan Zhan hates me? Jiang Cheng might resent me? And Shij---Jiang-guniang---the Young Madam Jin has a life already.”
“First, if Hanguang-Jun hates you, why would he frequently glare at people who badmouthed you?”
“Because he’s a good person. How do you know this anyway?”
“I have friends. Try again. Hanguang-Jun is a famously reticent person. Would he do this for every person?”
“.........I don’t know.”
“The answer is no.”
Wei Wuxian pouts.
Wen Qing then begins to tell him how Jiang Cheng frequently takes demonic cultivators back with him in hopes that one of them would be Wei Wuxian and even added Wei Wuxian back to the Jiang sect register. Jiang Yanli smiles while ruthlessly talking people into apologizing every time she hears something bad said about Wei Wuxian.
She even lectures him on his feelings towards Lan Wangji, that he would entrust A’ Yuan to him.
Wen Qing closes off her speech with threats of her needles if Wei Wuxian doesn’t get his ass over there.
“There’s a Discussion Conference at Lotus Pier. Wei Wuxian, wait till they’re done and go meet them.”
Wei Wuxian, sufficiently threatened, hightails it back to what was his home.
.......
Wei Wuxian also decidedly forgets that he was supposed to wait for the Conference to end. Well, he had assumed that they would be done considering the empty state of the area in front of the conference room and stupidly bursts through the door to a room full of people.
Wei Wuxian blinks, “Uhh......”
“Wei Wuxian?!”
“Wei Ying?!”
“A’ Xian?!”
Wei Wuxian tittered from side to side, “Hello, all! I bet you thought I was dead! Well, you guessed wrong! Hahaha......”
..............................
Lan Wangji did not know what this time’s discussion conference would be like. He expected Jin Guangshan to try and subtly slander Wei Ying. He expected Jiang Yanli, Jiang Wanyin and himself to stand up for Wei Ying, as he was unable to do before Wei Ying died.
But he certainly didn’t expect Wei Ying, who he thought was dead, burst into the room.
Everyone was silent as soon as they heard Wei Ying speak, but soon burst into a cacophony of noise.
Continuing the Discussion Conference was futile after that and it was quickly closed. Lan Wangji watched Wei Ying be surrounded by many people, some crying, some happily angry, some exasperated and he couldn’t help his reaction after seeing him once again.
He rushes forward and hugs him.
“Wha--Lan Zhan?”
“You’re alive.” Lan Wangji breathes, voice full of wonder. “You’re alive.”
Wei Ying’s arms come up around him and Lan Wangji feels the strong heart beat through their robes. His elders yell at him for his shamelessness and he comes back to himself, embarrassed at his lack of control.
“Aww, Lan Zhan! I’m so glad you missed me!”
“Mn. Missed Wei Ying a lot.”
A slight blush rose to Wei Ying’s cheeks and he laughed, a little shy. Lan Wangji couldn’t help his response to hearing his laugh again after so, so long. He kissed him.
The crowd gasped around them and Lan Wangji pulled back quickly, wanting the ground to swallow him up. But then......Wei Ying kissed him back.
“Aiya, Lan Zhan. How bold of you! To steal a kiss from me in public!” He giggles, not seeming mad at all and even pressing forward, tangling his fingers in his forehead ribbon.
Lan Wangji’s breath stutters at the gesture.
“You’d better take responsibility!”
Is Wei Ying asking what I think he’s asking? “Responsibility?”
“Yes! You took a kiss from me in public! It looks like I can’t marry anymore.”
“Will marry Wei Ying.” Lan Wangji replies, voice hoarse, ignoring the cries of outrage from his elders, the angry shouts from Jiang Wanyin, and the smirks from Jiang Yanli and his brother. “Will take responsibility.”
“I hope that isn’t the only reason.”
This is his chance to come clean. Lan Wangji already told himself that he wouldn’t hold himself back if he met Wei Ying again. “Like Wei Ying. Love Wei Ying.”
Wei Ying laughs brightly. “I like Lan Zhan too. Now, you’ll finally admit we’re close?”
Lan Wangji ignores everyone, eyes only on Wei Ying as they should have always been, “Mn. Let’s get married.”
___________________________
I feel like Lan Wangji may be a bit OOC......hmm. Well, whatever. I finally got this done and with that, I think I’ve cleared all the prompts I haven’t answered, so asks will open up again!
Hope you all enjoyed this!

こんにちは、友よ!(I love doing my greetings in different languages)
I have le request!
Platonic Yandere Ticci toby Goldie and shoto X little sister reader
General headcannons?
I hope you have a great day\night!
From 🌧️ anon!😊
MY BOI GOLDIE, Y E S
Sorry, moving on. I'm very sorry it has taken so long, I was just kind of unmotivated about it? But I got around to it, and without further ado. Thats a lie
Hope ya like it.
Also, since Goldie is an anamatronic and doesn't have siblings, I'll just make it with the nightguards younger siblings.
Yandere with a younger sister. [BNHA/CREEPYPASTA/FNAF]
[HEADCANONS][FEMALE][PLANTONIC]
When he finds out the scum he calls father had another child, behind his mothers back?
He is furious. He hates his father even more now. And more than anything, he hates you.
His mother never deserved anything that happened to her, and she definitely didn't deserve the fucker cheating on her.
Then he tracks you down. He wants to kill you. He won't let his mother find out about it, ever.
And then he meets you.
So innocent, unknowing of his fathers cruelty.
Safe, safe from the horrors of the world.
And he wants to protect that. Protect you. With every fiber oof his body.
So he'll intredouce himself you your mother first. Get her to adore him like her own son. And then she'll intreduce the two of you.
And he'll make sure you adore him.
You got his father's quirk? He'll teach you how to use fire.
Your mothers? He'll show of his quirk,watch as your eyes light up because of him.
He'll make sure he becomes your favorite person in the whole world.
He's very protective, but he won't kill the people who harm you, no.
He'll go to their houses, speak with their parents.
He's famous, for both the sports festival, and being the number ones son.
And he hates his father, but won't be afraid to use that mans status for his own benefit.
He'll also spoil you like crazy with his dads credit card.
You get anything you want, anything at all.
New clothing? Food? Snacks? Wanna go shopping? Want to see a movie? Vacation?
Of course, he'll make sure to stay on your moms good side, so she won't stop letting him see you.
Even if she did, he would kill her.
And then custody would go to his dad, and he would keep you with him and as far away from his dad or any of his siblings as he could.
He'll make sure nobody ever wants to date you. Ever.
He isn't quite ready to share you with any other person yet.
Mabye one day he will, but you better not forget him.
Then he'll/she'll/they'll get in an... accident.
Also, he wants matching outfits with you.
Won't be afraid to show how cute you are and how much you like him and how absolute perfect you are.
His freinss get sick of it.
He won't care.
He was always closer to Lyra than he was with you.
You were young, about eleven when he was seventeen.
And besides, he never went to you about anything, he was always going to Lyra.
Then his sister died, and he snapped.
He ended up killing his dad, and probably killed you and his mother in the fire he started. He would be more surprised if he didn't.
And then he sees you. By some stranger, looking so sad.
And now you're thirteen.
And he doesn't understand, because he killed you.
Except he hadn't, because you had been sent to your grandparents for a while, during the time he recovered and his parents tried to cope with th loss of a child.
They hadn't wanted to tell you about Lyra.
And that wasn't his grandparents. The two had probably died because they were so old.
Foster parents.
He'll watch some older kids pick on you, and then he'll stand behind you, scaring them shitless.
He won't intredouce himself as himself? No.
Simply as your imaginary friend.
Always dissapearing before anyone but you can see him.
He's trained for that after all.
But you love him, even if he's "just a fragment of your mind, creating an illusion of your brother because he was the only one they didn't find the body of and you miss him."
He'll cuddle you, watch movies with you.
He knows his way around the internet, and how to illegally get money.
And Ben showed him the best free websites.
So movies and cuddles are the most common for the two of you.
He can't be seen after all.
And late night trips? He'll take you for a walk, or star gazing.
And he'll bring you gifts and when your foster parents try to return them only to find them payed for?
They'll be concerned, but you never tell them about him anymore.
And he'll be so happy.
Because you love him as much as he loves you.
And now he knows why Lyra cared so much about you.
And he wouldn't end up like Lyra, he would be there for you.
Whether you liked it or not.
Goldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiedolgodegolduegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldiegoldie
A young boy(girl?) Who died, at the young age of eight.
And now, eight years later, has the body of a golden broken down bear and the mind of a 16 year old loser-
It's rare for him to actually engage with the nightguard, but he's always watching them.
So he'll be very surprised when he sees one of them bring a child in.
Are they stupid?
Well, he survived, walking out in a hurry with a small, crying child in his arms.
Goldie was ready for him to have learned the lesson and not bring you in, but he does.
And then he plugs music into your ears, blindfolds you and makes it so you aren't aware of anything going on.
Goldie will show up, not harming the nightguard, simply taking you while he was distracted.
And he'll intredouce himself, ready for you to yell and scream in fear.
But you don't, you just give him your name in return.
Y/N.
It fits amazingly.
And then he has you promise to never tell your brother that you are meeting him.
Until the last day, and he kills your brother.
And he keeps you in the vent room with him.
He basically kidnappers you.
But it's okay, it's fine.
It's normal.
Even if its, he doesn't care.
He can create illusions, hw makes sure you don't think anything is out of place.
And when you start thinking something is wrong, he'll kill you.
Simple as that.
When he no longer gets to have you?
Nobody gets to fucking have you.

Cosmo’s TMNT Masterpost
(Rise, 2003, 2012, and others)
Here’s where you can find pretty much everything I’ve ever made for the TMNT fandom! Fanfics here[haven’t gotten the courage to post fanart here yet], hope you guys enjoy my work. Reblogs are appreciated!
Fanfics
1. Finding my way home(and moving forward)
Out of sheer curiosity, Leonardo and Donatello looked up, and there it was.
A portal.
Had the Universe really taken pity on them? Had it really heard his desperate prayers for one more chance?
It was not like the ones they had seen before, it was an irregular circle made up of several shades of blue, completely different from the perfect and symmetrical pink triangles of the Kraang.
Leonardo and Donatello looked into each other's eyes for a few moments, "Should we go in?" Donatello asked, almost shouting, drawing the attention of the others, who quickly turned to the portal and to see each other, then the two brothers in question.
"It's our best bet, and our only chance," replied Leonardo.
Or rather, with the 2012 kids' home gone, they end up in the Rise verse after a strange portal shows up. Therapy is needed, and start the slow process of healing from their trauma.
(Rise/2012, Work in Progress, written with @keeryd )
2. Strawberry Cookies:
"Mikey here was just about to tell me what we could do to cheer Raph up while he's sick," Donnie says. "Mikey continue?"
Now that Mikey had both of his older brothers attention, he grins. "I was thinking we make strawberry cookies!" He does his jazz hands as he says this and is met with looks of something that he can only put as disapproval. "What?"
"You do know that everytime that we have tried to make it-" Donnie starts.
"We mess it up and Raph has to come in and save our butts from burning the cookies?" Leo finishes, "What would be different this time?"
Mikey huffs, "We are doing this so we can cheer him up and to prove that we can do something on our own!" he says, "That's what got Raph sick in the first place!"
Or rather, Raph gets sick after helping his brothers recover from the poisoned pizza puffs. Mikey, Donnie, and Leo take a shot at baking cookies for Raph while trying not to burn their kitchen down.
(One shot, complete)
3. Chicken Fried Rice:
“I only poured in half a pot of rice,” Donnie complained.
Mikey stared at him, really stared at him before he spoke. “You do realize that rice expands when cooked right?” he said, “You do realize that?”
Donnie was silent, looking away from Mikey.
“Donnie!”
Donnie makes chicken fried rice. Mikey watches over. Shenanigans and brotherly fluff ensue.
one shot in which Donnie is in the kitchen, cooking rice and Mikey, Mikey is positive he should have gotten Donnies braincell.
(One shot, complete)
4. Tea Time with Hortense and Patty:
"Sooo," Raph starts. She's always been weird with awkward silences. "Are these grandma kinning hours?"
"Grandma hours!" Mikey exclaims excitedly. "Grandma time!!!"
"Ah, if it isn't our favorite girl and her little brother!" Hortense tilts her head over in their direction slightly. "Are you going to join us? We were just about done arguing," she says.
---
Today is Tea Time. Two old ladies have a tea party, one of them forgets to bring the food, and they are joined by Mikey and Raph. A good time is still had.
(One Shot, Complete)
5. One of those Days
When Donnie woke up this morning, he woke up with the familiar thrum of anger and irritation running through his body with more intensity than normal. Rubbing the crust out of the corners of his sleep-addled eyes, he jerkily grabbed his phone and turned off the alarm. It's one of Those Days, Donnie noted. Those Days where Donnie isn't capable of handling Mikey's over-enthusiastic optimism or Leon's chaotic trickster nature. His safest bet is to hang out with Raph, his calm and mellow demeanor always helped calm down before Donnie went on a rage fest and say anything he couldn't take back.
Or, Donnie and Raph help each other out, balance each other, and make things a little less difficult.
(One Shot, Complete)
6. Gift Hunting:
“It’s Leo. Tiny Leo,” the voice answers. “I need your help with something.”
“What is it?”
“I can’t say until you say yes first,” Leo says. “It’s really important though.”
Angelo is silent, weighing his options. He could say no, he really could-
“Please, Angelo, you’re the only one who can really help me with this,” Leo pleads.
Rather, Angelo and Leonardo go out in the streets of New York to help the blue banded turtle find gifts for his brothers' sixteenth mutation day. Bonding and fluff ensues.
(One Shot, Complete)
7. Aftermath:
“Raphie bear?” Mikey called out, gently tapping Raph, with relief washing him when Raph turned his head to face him. “What’s the matter teddy bear?”
“Th-thi-this doesn’t feel real.” Raph stuttered out, his voice cracking as a sob broke through. “I’m not really here. Neither are you and everyone else. I’m still alone with Draxum and his minions. No one’s coming to save me because I was stupid enough to get captured and no one wants such a worthless turtle like me.”
In which Raph was kidnapped and tortured by Baron Draxum and his family has to deal with the aftermath of it.
(One Shot, Complete)
8. To Be the Eldest
Donnie, the second youngest in his family, wishes he was the eldest for once. Then one night, Donnie gets his wish granted and now he was three small turtles in his care.
Donnie adjusts to being the eldest, comes to some realizations, and makes a promise to his (now) younger brothers.
(Work In Progress)
9. Wanted: Snaggletooth
Dr. Noel bent down on his knees in front of Raph, a manic smile that showed too many teeth coming about on his face speaking of pain and suffering that has yet to come. He stretched out his hand towards Raph’s face, placing a thumb under his mouth, pressing into his snaggletooth. “Beautiful. Just as I expected,” he crooned, pulling out a syringe and injecting it into Raph’s neck, pushing the contents of the syringe into his system.
Raph’s eyes fluttered as he started losing consciousness, watching through hooded eyes as Dr. Noel's smile grew even wider, with his last thought right as darkness consumed him being that he hoped his family would find him before it was too late.
Post S2 Finale, Dr. Noel remembers Raphael, his snaggletooth, and manages to find and capture the red masked turtle. It doesn't end well for Raphael.
(Work In Progress)
10. Dimensional Differences:
They bow. Not like one of those pretentious bows like she would do at Yokai parties and not like the ones she would do with her brothers when they hosted tea parties. They bowed deeply, heads stopping at her stomach, one hand closing around their fists. This spoke of respect and honor.
And that unnerved her a little bit. Why are they bowing so deeply?
“Thank you,” they said in unison. It’s unnerving to April and she felt the uneasiness coming from her brothers too.
“Why are you thanking me?” She said finally, voice sounding foreign to her.
“You saved my life?” Baby Leo said slowly, voice tinged with confusion. “That was an honorable thing to do?”
April blinked, “It shouldn’t be considered honorable for doing what any big sister would do,” she said. “That’s not honor, that’s just being a good older sibling.”
In which April, Sunita, Casey, and the turtles end up in the 2012 verse after a mishap with Leo's ōdachi and stay with the 2012 turtles until they can go home. They find out a lot of things that don't quite jive with them. Some things are the same, some things are different and they're not quite sure how to handle those differences.
(Rise/2012, Work In Progress)
11. Mind Meld Part Deux:
“Oh thank Galileo that you all are back to normal!”
“What do you mean we’re back to normal?” Raph questioned, pulling back from the hug. Mikey and Leo also pulled back to stare at Donnie. “We’ve-we’ve always been like this?”
Donnie went quiet. He shouldn’t have said that.
“Donnie, what did you do?”
The brothers found out about Donnie’s Mental Intelligence Reprogrammulator. Arguments are had, words are said, words that tear a rift between him and his family, and it’s up to Donnie to earn his brothers’ forgiveness. The only thing is, will he get it?
(Work In Progress)
12. I'm a little kid and so are you(don't you go and grow up before I do):
The 2003 turtles somehow, someway ended up in the Rise verse, with Rise Splinter and his turtle tots, and stay with them while the boys try to figure out their way home. 2003 Raphael got attached to his tiny counterpart the moment he laid eyes on the tot. (Raph centric)
(Rise/2003, Work In Progress)
13. Dimensional Self-Isolation
Post S2 Finale, Raph finds himself trapped in the 2012 universe and has a difficult time coping with all of the differences that this world has in store for him. From new villains, unfamiliar familiar faces, and the way the 2012 boys and Splinter treat each other and him, Raph has a heavy plate on his hands during his long term stay.
(Rise/2012, Work In Progress)
14. A Collection of Turtle Thoughts
A collection of drabbles and ficlets about Turtles I've been writing since October 2020. Ranges from humor to hurt/comfort, I have it all.
Requests are open. SFW only though.
(All Iterations, Work in Progress)
If y’all reblog, read, and share my work, I’d really appreciate that! Anything and everything is appreciated, money or not! Thanks folks 🐢💕

Chilumi Week Day 1 - Angel Wings (Family)
I’m so excited to participate in a ship week again, you guys!! I have sooo many ideas for this ship it was really difficult choosing just one prompt for each day lol
Summary: Tonia admires the angel her brother brought home with him.
It was the first thing Teucer had mentioned after being escorted home.
No apologies, no hugs for his parents or other siblings. Not even seeing their brother, Ajax, was the first thing out of his mouth. No, it was-
“I met the nice lady that big brother wrote about in his letters, Tonia!” Teucer exclaimed excitedly, nearly jumping out of his skin. “She was so pretty, and she watched over me while he was away selling his toys! She took me all around Liyue!”
Her first thought was Wow, Ajax pawned off Teucer to some poor girl he’d only recently met. Of course, Tonia’s interest was still piqued by this - her older brother had never really liked anyone before, never been a people person, while they were growing up. On top of that, she knew the truth about his job; he was a Harbinger for the Tsaritsa, and while he spared her much of the details, she heard stories. She knew what they did. She really wanted to know what this girl was like, to have caught her brother’s attention while he was fulfilling his job for the Archon.
Once Teucer had been scolded by their mother, Tonia was back to watch duty. They had all been worried sick when he disappeared, relieved only when her oldest brother’s letter arrived and explained that Teucer had somehow made his way to Liyue, and that he would make sure Teucer got back safely. She had him seated in the kitchen with her while she cooked. On and on, Teucer continued to babble about the girl, Lumine.
“And then, she showed me the courtyard at the top of Liyue! She told me that was where she and big brother met! She said she was in a lot of trouble, but big brother saved her! My big brother is amazing!” Teucer excitedly threw his hands in the air, which made Tonia giggle. She thought she’d like to hear the story from Ajax, himself, when he returned home.
“I made the nice lady promise to come visit when she gets to Snezhnaya,” Teucer continued. “She’s a traveler! But she made me a pinkie promise, so she has to come!”
“Oh, then she will definitely be here,” Tonia agreed. “You told her what happens when you break a pinkie promise, right?”
“Mhm!” He nodded enthusiastically, then began to recite the rhyme. Tonia wished she could have seen the look on the traveler’s face, because she knew the rhyme was a little much for people not from Snezhnaya.
“...the frost will freeze your tongue off, so you never lie again!” He finished, a proud look on his face.
“Very good, Teucer,” Tonia turned to him, smiling. “Now, why don’t you tell me about what big brother got you?”
Her younger brother’s eyes widened comically. “I almost forgot! Big brother took me to his Toy Research factory, where he makes all the Mr. Cyclops! And then he gave me my own Mr Cyclops! Oh, and the nice lady was there too...”
She continued to listen to him, giggling all the while, wondering what the real story behind Ajax and Lumine taking Teucer through the “Toy Research factory” was.
There was a restlessness that stirred among the entire family throughout the day, and settled as dusk fell. The Tsaritsa’s Winter Festival was upon them, and Ajax had sent ahead that not only would he be returning to Snezhnaya on the Holy Day, but that he had a guest to bring with him.
Tonia knew it was Lumine - it had to be. The only other person she could ever see him actually wanting to bring home to them was the Tsaritsa, and even then he’d made it clear he was trying to keep his family away from his business as a Harbinger. She was sure the rest of her family knew it too; Teucer, however, excitable as he was, was the only one to voice their collective thought.
“Mama and papa are going to meet the nice lady!” He exclaimed. “Tonia and Anthon too!”
Most of their replies were laughter and encouraging Teucer, but for the rest of it they stayed relatively silent, like they were collectively holding their breath. Even now, as their mother was watching Teucer, Tonia sat with her other brother and the two of them remained quiet. She wasn’t nervous, in fact she was bursting with curiosity. There was just something about it that made no one want to speak.
The door to their home opened suddenly with no warning, though it swung open agonizingly slow. Both she and Anthon were on their feet in an instant, sharing a glance of bewilderment. Neither of them were truly prepared, and they would be the first to see their brother and his guest.
Ajax appeared through the door first, and despite her burning lungs, Tonia couldn’t help the smile that crossed her face upon seeing him. It had been so long since she last saw her brother, and yet he looked like he hadn’t changed a day. If it had only been him stepping through the door, this would have been a wonderful day. But it wasn’t; once he had fully crossed the threshold, she saw that there was a white-gloved hand in his own, guiding this girl he had written so much about into their home. She noticed Ajax turn his head to look toward his guest before she saw the Traveler herself.
Lumine, this girl she had read so much about, how what a strong-willed and skilled warrior she was, looked surprisingly bashful as she followed Ajax inside. Tonia was struck immediately by how pretty she was. Blonde hair and eyes the color of amber honey. She wore a knee-length coat that was also feather white, adorned by white fur that gave her the silhouette of angel wings. Truly, Tonia didn’t think she’d be any more surprised had the girl walked into their home with wings spreading out from her back. She was so ethereal, they would only make sense.
“Lumine, this is Tonia and Anthon, my other siblings,” Her older brother was the first to speak, probably because both she and Anthon were stunned. “Of course you already know Teucer, wherever he is.”
The Traveler bowed her head politely toward them. “A pleasure it is to meet you,” her voice was gentle, sweet. Tonia thought it sounded like how she imagined spring, growing up in a land of eternal winter. “Both of your brothers told me so much about the two of you.”
“Likewise,” it seemed like Anthon had gathered his senses before her, walking over to shake her hand. Tonia was snapped out herself by seeing the look in her younger brother’s eyes. He was starstruck.
She followed him quickly, instead collecting the other young woman in a warm embrace. She was smiling again when she pulled away. “Jaxy has told us so much about you.”
Lumine giggled, a sound just as predictably pretty as it could be. “Jaxy?” She looked up toward him, and Tonia watched as her brother suddenly became very interested in the floor.
He rubbed the back of his head. “I suppose I forgot to mention what everyone likes to call me.”
Tonia was so dumbfounded by the blush she saw appearing across his face, that she nearly missed what Lumine said next.
“Understandably, since all you ever think about is fighting with me!”
Before either Tonia or Anthon could comment on that statement, she watched as his face rose back to meet her gaze. Ajax put an arm around Lumine, resting his hand on her back. “Come on, let’s go find Teucer. He’s going to lose it if he thinks you didn’t come find him immediately.”
“You’re probably right, he hasn’t stopped talking about her since he returned from Liyue,” Tonia agreed after she had recovered, indicating them toward the back of the house. “He’s in the den with mother.”
“Well then, if you’ll follow me, my lady,” her brother flashed his guest a brilliant smile, leading her toward the den. Tonia noticed his hand slide down to her lower back as he guided her.
She jumped a little, hitting him lightly on the arm, trying to escape his grip. “Ajax!” Her brother simply chuckled, and pulled her closer. But just the sound of his name on her lips made her brother visibly swoon, as though she had never said it before.
His gaze hadn’t once left Lumine’s face since he looked back to her in the doorway, except for when she had teased him over his nickname. It was even better than Tonia could have imagined.
She thought Ajax hadn’t changed a bit from the last time she had seen him, but she saw now that she had been wrong. He was so much softer, his expression, his eyes, his body language. They were quite the sight together, her brother a mix of ginger hair, black and gray and red, while the girl beside him contrasted his appearance with white and gold, like she came down from Celestia itself. Tonia didn’t think it could be more like something straight out of a fairy tale. She had barely known the Traveler for a few minutes, and she knew immediately that her brother was in love.
