#and fuck kody and jett so true

[yetdevout]

okay so i listened to the inversion in its entirety and i have a few thoughts

even tho it is not canon (except cutie in this case) i refuse to believe that out of the 1500+ people that died, none of our other empowered characters suffered from a loss as well. like xavier definitely was not the only person who the DAMN squad knew who died. maybe lovely was friends with someone who died. maybe sweetheart lost a distant family member who died idk. i like associating pain and suffering with anyone and everyone in the redactedverse

another headcanon. every year DAMN hosts the anniversary of the inversion to commemorate all those who died and were affected by the inversion. i can just imagine the shaw pack, solaire clan, DAMN squad and our other empowered characters to be there and pay their respects whether they lost someone or not. i imagine a bunch of tables set up in the middle of the stadium for people to bring candles and light them in honour of the dead. for example huxley bringing a candle with xaviers name on or sweetheart bringing a scented candle for their distant aunt or something. (now im imagining the DAMN squad grieving and damien lighting the candle with his fire elemental powers and comforting huxley °~° )

idk why but i feel like freelancer would work for the department after full certification. they seem like the type to do so and would do everything they can to change the system for the better. (i just want them to be friends with sweetheart okay? they are both baddies) same with damien but based on what he's trying to do rn while he's still studying at DAMN with that human-born-magic-user campaign thing i think he would work for DAMN but not as a professor like lasko

last point. i was pondering over milos words about magic being not only in his core but in his entire being because hes a shifter right? do you think sweetheart could have helped milo to bring the ward down?? shifting and cloaking and phasing are very different types of magic but for all of these, the magic can spread throughout the entire body for it to work therefore meaning that for stealths, the same rule applies?? that magic exists not only in their core but in their entire body?? i could be looking too far into it but i just want to know your opinion :))

also jett and kody can disrespectfully throw themselves into a trash can for being an ass to my favourite wolfboi and elementals

that is all. thank you <3

"i like associating pain and suffering with anyone and everyone in the redactedverse" this is so funny it's going in the yetdevout hall of fame

i also believe it doesn't seem likely that the redacted characters didn't face more losses aside from xaiver. like a professor, a classmate someone saw every day, a cousin — like something to really drive it in yk? hell it could've been someone angel babe sunshine or starlight knew. so many ppl go to DAMN, who knows??

god the candles, i can visualize that SO clearly and it's so painful 😭 there's something to say about damien lighting the candles using his fire magic, the solemn control that he yearned to have during the inversion. he wishes for so much. though, standing around the people he loves the most, he knows for a certain that these flames won't burn out.

yeah i could imagine freelancer going for full certification as well! them and damien radiate "be the change you want to see in the world" so they would try to go above and beyond. i believe damien is trying to land a job on DAMN administration bc he wants to change so much about how the school operates. go him!

yknow what, that does make sense! both of their magic relies on the physical body, so the spread of magic through their body and out into the ward would be plausible. also, sweetheart just doesn't seem like the type of person to let milo do such a life threatening thing on his own. like it would take a 1000 man army and then some for sweetheart to have milo walk through the ring of fire alone. so yeah, i do see them using both of their magic to help bring the ward down! their core probably didn't burn out like milo's did bc of how undetectable stealth magic/auras are as compared to shifter magic. like milo says when they bridged, it's a lot and can be overwhelming.
