#Tiergan x alden

[clarissaweasley-10]

At this point I just need Sophie/Keefe to cry and admit that they're not okay.

[siennamakeschaos]

kotlc adult headcanons :D (and theories i guess)

warning: kind of long

I also got off-track quite a few times

but enjoyy

grady and kesler were best friends all throughout their time at foxfire (their friendship was even stronger after kesler got booted out before elite levels)

kesler dated juline for a bit, then introduced grady to her sister (edaline)

grady was heads over heels for her but edaline was an oblivious sweetheart

cassius and edaline previously dated

they were cute together

they broke up bc of reasons (which may or may not include a mystery sencen sister~)

grady and cassius were also really close friends for years. and years. cassius became a lot more hostile after oralie got elected as a councillor (which is part of a theory of mine that i might talk about in another post) and the two of them drifted apart

and cassius kind of insulted edaline in front of grady, which resulted in him getting mesmerized to slap himself :D

grady and edaline moved in together on the day of their 10 year anniversary of being together

he surprised her with a new addition to the animal reserve (edaline was over at havenfield 90% of her time)

VERDI!! grady knew edaline loved t-rexes, and she instantly fell in love with verdi

verdi fell in love with her

grady was scared verdi was going to steal edaline from him

so he proposed to eda :D

their wedding was in the paddocks because edaline requested it

kesler was the best man, juline was the bridesmaid

ofc jolie was the flower girl

verdi crashed the afterparty

edaline's parents screamed while grady's parents laughed

after everybody left, grady, edaline, kesler and juline hung out together

kesler proposed to juline

the lost cities went SCREECH

their wedding was on a pretty beach

at midnight

because they wanted it to be special

jolie was flower girl. again.

grady was best man, edaline bridesmaid (yep grady and eda's wedding but swapped)

there wasn't a large collection of guests bc of the bad match scandal

kesler wore a bright yellow suit

juline wore a neon yellow dress with green glow-in-the-dark makeup

their wedding was eccentric and beautiful <3

time to move on from weddings

alden and grady were colleagues and they developed a friendship

edaline and della met when shopping one day and they developed a friendship

one day edaline and grady both accidentally invited della/alden over and that's how the two of them met

della got her match list a couple weeks later

number 1? alden vacker

she was astonished and tried not to dwell on it

but her and alden grew closer after that

then confession stuff and they dated for 5-ish years.

before proposals

they had a wedding in the everglen reception hall

jolie was excited this was her first wedding that she wasn't the flower girl at

best man + bridesmaid were close friends of alden + della's

the bridesmaid was a relative of alina's

gave her all the info (when the wedding was happening, where)

alina went and crashed it we all know what happened :)

okay back to the childhood of characters

ELWINN

a-hem. elwin's parents fought a lot and didn't pay much attention to him :(

he had a cousin named amarelle sencen

she was a couple years older than him and they were so close :D

elwin spent most of his time at amarelle's house

when he was 15 and amarelle was 18, amarelle's parents had another child

elwin was happy, he had another cousin :D

the child was named cassius (>:D)

amarelle moved out after she completed elite levels (she was an empath~)

elwin's parents literally forgot he existed most of the time so he moved in with amarelle

cassius was 2 at this point and ANOTHER child was born (elwin had another cousin!)

the name..? ahah no.

elwin saw his aunt and uncle a lot, and cassius looked up to him.

elwin babysitted cassius and the mystery child a heap, until he went to elite levels

it was around then he began to take an interest in physician and doctory stuff (look at me using scientific words /jj)

amarelle supported him every step of the way

she gave him a stegosaurus stuffed animal

he named it stinky >:D

elwin was so grateful for that he began to grow a stuffed animal collection

but stinky was always his most favourite

elwin went and got qualifications after elite levels and stuff

but he still lived with amarelle

she owned a place called splendour plains

amarelle was working as a jeweller, she often made jewellry for elwin to wear

(also when keefe was temporarily living in splendour plains, amarelle still owned it but elwin knew that the two of them had never met so he claimed it was his own house. amarelle was on a trip with a close friend while keefe was there.)

amarelle didn't have the best relationship with cassius

but she showed up to the opening ceremonies thing for Foxfire when he became a Level one :D

elwin came as well

he cheered cassius on the whole time

elwin gave cassius a special stuffed animal after that (it may or may not still be in cassius possession~)

elwin began to get really busy and he didn't have much time to hang out with cassius and the mystery child

he managed to make it to the mystery child's first opening ceremony tho

he gave HER a stuffed animal as well >:3

it was a unicorn

she named it sparkles

bc she thought the name 'queen pink of all things pink' sounded kinda weird

mystery child loved pink :)

uhh this elwin part's gotten kind of long now-

elwin became foxfire's physician

mystery child always got fake-injured (or exaggerated her injuries) to come to the healing centre to see elwin

cassius would sometimes drop by during breaks with grady

elwin had recently gotten a blue elephant stuffed animal in a hawaiian shirt and he wanted to find the perfect person to give it to

it took years to find that person-

also aro/ace elwin :)

he doesn't wanna get involved with any romantic-y stuff

not for himself anyways

he gives the best romantic advice to cassius tho

and his other patients

especially one who got a really bad injury one time named kenric

he was pining over the mystery child

mystery child and kenric became friends :)

cassius was sUsPiCiOuS (older brother instincts)

he didn't like kenric

until one day mystery child almost died in some sort of accident

kenric saved her

cassius liked kenric now :D

cassius and kenric weren't friends tho

cassius, grady and kesler had sleepovers with edaline and juline

chaos

pure chaos they were

cassius + edaline began dating the next day

grady was lonely bc kesler was dating juline

he was a single pringle

ages later (wayy after cassius + edaline broke up) grady asked edaline out

shit we're getting back to grady and edaline-

tiergan and prentice were besties

they would have been the perfect cognates

but tiergan didn't want to fall in love with sOmEoNe

so they stayed besties

then cyrah came along

prentice fell in love but it didn't feel right

he loved cyrah tho

tiergan was a single pringle

for a year

two years

three years

ten years

twenty years

thirty years

has been a single pringle his whole life :')

let's go to gisela now

she grew up with a few close friends, she did moderately well in school and she kept noticing the things that were wrong in the lost cities

after elite levels she met mr arson (a.k.a fintan) and he felt good vibes off her

a couple months later gisela is officially a neverseen member

she is really dedicated

fintan loves her (platonically)

they're bestiess

fintan puts on mini fire shows for her

gisela helps him with his noxflares

she was sad when he was taken off to exile

lol she took over the neverseen leadership position

but then fintan was back

and they were besties again

then fintan was arrested again

and she took over the neverseen leadership position again

and uhh this is kind of getting into canon things now-

okay I think this is enough for now

...i'm tempted to write more for elwin

ANYWAYS YEAH

....mystery child reveal may be in a post to come

[kotlcpuppetshow]

im back on my bullshit

quinlin: So how do you ask someone out?

prentice: Well, first-

tiergan: Don't ask him, he asked me out in a McDonald parking lot.

quinlin: ...and you said yes?

[the-way-astray]

"'How so?' Alden asked, reaching for Fintan's temples. Tiergan grabbed his hands to stop him."

-Everblaze, page 290

Alden and Tiergan enemies to lovers arc??? Maybe???

[archived-and-moving]

what are your thoughts on enden (cyrah x livvy) i am spreading my agenda

An absolutely solid ship!

I don't think I'd ship them in canon but they'd have some super interesting dynamics that I'd absolutely read a fic about. I don't think I'd lose my mind over them but they have something so fun about the two of them together that I think would be enjoyable.

10/10 would consume casually.

[kale-of-the-forbidden-cities]

prentice x tiergan x cyrah in a nutshell (ft. Alden)

by yours truly

[maxsrainbowsheets]

round 3

reblog for bigger sample size

[gay-otlc]

Actually you know what Tiergan and Prentice are canonically gay for each other, Sophie is just oblivious and Alden is trying hard to insist they were just platonic besties, at some point Tiergan is going to reveal that he's dating Prentice and Sophie will just be *surprised pikachu face*

[aphelea]

Alden x tiergan

I... can't say I've ever really considered this one? "You arrested my ex and now I hate your whole family"-to-lovers isn't a dynamic you really see a lot

[i-love-side-characters]

i….tiergan x prentice please 👉👈

"what a terrible feeling to love someone and not be able to help them."

"well. i'll be honest, i'm not quite sure why i'm here."

there was no response. he wasn't sure why he expected one.

he cleared his throat, shifting his chair a little closer. "errol said this would help. talking. i never really was a big talker. but i guess you know that?"

tiergan sighed, shifting his chair closer to the cot. "i'm supposed to share memories―of the two of us―but i'm not quite clear on what exactly will help. errol said any memory."

he looked up at his friend's still form. "do you remember when we first met? it was a while ago. it's alright if you don't."

"it must have been―what, 30 years ago? we were level 8 i think. you came into the library swearing about sir akito giving you extra universe homework. i was sitting back near the windows and i didn't hear you―you know how bad my hearing is sometimes―and you tripped over me."

"i'm still sorry i never saw you coming. that bump on your head should definitely not have happen, but i just didn't notice you. then you went off at me. we argued right after that, remember? you got us kicked out the library for the rest of term."

"i didn't expect us to be friends after that. but we were. and after that―fuck."

he pursed his lips, stalking away to the stair case. night was slowly falling, stars glittering through the leaves in the sky. blood pounded through his head, eyes pricking with tears. "this isn't going to help. you're gone."

he turned around, glaring back at him. "you're not going to wake up. you're going to be like this forever―and i can't help you. i don't know what they did but i can't fix you. i'm so so sorry."

tears slipped down his cheeks, blurring his vision. "i'm sorry prentice. i'm sorry this all happened. that day―i never knew alden was going to find you. i didn't know. and cyrah―i couldn't save her either. i'm so sorry. i don't know why i came."

he moved back towards the door reaching out and gently flicked off the light. "goodnight prentice."

there was no response. he wasn't sure why he expected one.

[councillor-bronte-is-best-boy]

Random things I've noticed throughout KotLC that could possibly bring theories in the future:

The entire council would trust Alden with their lives except for the two that care about Sophie the most. It has been said outright that Bronte doesn't like Alden (and the Vackers have been taught to not like him) (Although his treatment toward them in Book 1 wasn't very nice). Oralie has shown signs about not trusting Alden (including refusing to let Sophie live with him to the point where she got Bronte to defend her)

Mr. Forkle said that Sophie's enhancing was a surprise that came from her genetics and no one pointed it out

Alden's role has gotten smaller and smaller in the books as the Neverseen have become more of a threat (I don't think he even showed up in Legacy) which is kind of a parallel to how Mr. Forkle shut down Foxfire so he could be head of the Black Swan

Gethen's role has slowly gotten bigger, and he is the only villian we got to see in pretty much all of book 1 (Why would Shannon put him in there that early unless he becomes important?) Even in the King's Path he was front and center of the hallucinations ASKING FOR A HUG . And in Flashback he's the main voice and look of the monster (He's definitely her dad but that's for another time)

The Sophie x Keefe and Jolie x Brant parallel is destroying me

Bronte's role has been kind of consistent throughout the series other than a side change but??? He somehow gets mentioned in like every scene throught the series. He'll definitely have a BIG role in the upcoming books and I'm scared

Every time Ro has went up against Gisela she has failed and Shannon has mentioned that she's going to kill off some of the body guards *loud coughing* and Ro seems to be the most determined to fight Gisela (I think you all know where this one is going)

It's been hinted at that Bronte and Grady have known each other for a long time several times throughout the series so I want to know more about that

Dex is basically Keefe now and I want it to stop. MAKE IT STOP

It's been hinted at that Terik is actually very old. And amcient? Idk. But he's old

Sophie acts so much like Bronte it's ridiculous (It may be hard to tell but they are annoyingly similar)

Mr. Forkle has hinted at Amy being "something I've never expected" so that's scary. Amy probably got some leftover moonlark genes 👀

Fintan is impressed with/likes Linh (Marella says this in Legacy) so uhhhh.... What ya planning there buddy?

The only people Sophie could remember on the King's Path are Dex and Bronte (The two people I've theorized are going to die) even though she was holding Bronte and Grady's hands

Tiergan and Gethen are pretty much the same person

The council always meets up at Havenfield so I guess something big is going to happen at Havenfield

There's a bit of a Terik-Fitz parallel starting to happen as the series goes on.... And if my theories about both of them are correct, that is NOT a good thing

We still don't know what Livvy's ability is????? Even though Sophie enhanced her???

Fitz and Forkle also act a LOT alike

The fire and ice analogy is used a lot throughout the series. I'm not quite sure what that could symbolize but ice usually beats fire when it isn't inflicting...

Cassius has been starting to get a much bigger role.... Ew

STOP IT WITH THE BRONTE-GETHEN PARALLEL

Wraith is supposedly the only person who knows Tinker's real identity but how hard is it to identify the only wild red-haired tallest-elf-she'd-ever-seen technopath that wears metal all the time? That just seems like Forkle doesn't want Sophie and Dex knowing who she is

Fintan has no set motive other than "make pyrokinesis legal oh and also expose the entire neverseen while I'm at it" so uh, what??? Is he doing exactly?

Alina gets in a fight with someone no matter what scene she's in or who she's with

Even though they did help expose the Vackers and frequently hurt the kids, did Ruy and Gethen ever actually harm any of the kids physically? It even looked like they were trying to help the group in Everglen. ALL of the Neverseen members are obviously on different pages here

I'm gonna stop here but I'll add more later
