Headcanon - Signas' Commanding Duties Placed in X3 Instead of X5

I kinda wanted to make a post based on when Signas comes in because he comes in earlier than X5. I kinda had the idea from a video, this one in particular and if I remember correctly, a roleplay I did with my best friend some time ago. I don't remember exactly, but what I pieced together will be a very brief post/chapter. Since I plan to make his Bio with everyone else's in that lil series~

Basically, he works as a low ranking Maverick Hunter, ebing kinda a background character and leaves the hunters pretty fast. Around after the X1 arc, he decides to do something else and be away from fighting Mavericks for a while. He was a C rank hunter and was about to move up before Sigma's initial rebellion started.

But he comes back after upgrades and having experience in the detective field. And he realizes things have definitely been a mess, even with X being behind the helm and doing his best. He could tell he was tired, so he definitely decided to be Commander from then on. And that's exactly what happened.

Hope this post does it justice until I can post more in detail without being vague lol.

Thoughts on Reploids Interfacing (Esp considering X and Zero)

Not sure how this would play out

Esp since I got it from a fic I read called “my little ribs around you” by oogenesis on AO3. And it extended with “50 percent” too. Both fics are good, 

my little ribs around you

50 percent

Please read them they’re gr9 and full of feels

Anyway, reploids interfacing is definitely considered very sacred and personal. And what other thing would be personal and sacred, than to X and Zero? They have a close relationship as is, and as a ship, it enunciates that further. In Code: Crimpphire, they totally do it.

In Reploid society, it’s not done too often and close relationships like X and Zero’s are hard to come by. It can be found, of course, but it’s still hard to come by. And for X and Zero? It’s was one of those rare finds. They’re not reploids, but they’re called that for simplicity. Esp since X is the father to all reploids for obvious reasons.

But in the case of 50 percent, there would be one or two similar scenarios. Esp X looking after Zero and vice versa.

I just feel it really fits my X and Zero and I love it. Idk if oogenesis really came up with it themselves, but I really do love the concept. Whomever did it, thanks a bunch, it’s amazeballs.

((okay some good news))

((I think I’m ready to come back, so I think I’ll go and answer some asks.

Though, not until I get something done which I’m posting on my @mmx-code-crimpphire blog!!

I’m also gonna try and get more headcanons uploaded so more content can be shown.

So progress is being made, guys!! Can’t wait to come back for y’all~

Headcanon - X and Zero's decided married surname

I believe I didn’t talk about this before, as I only briefly spoke about the married name of X and Zero “Hikari” once or twice.

At first it was just gonna be “Light”, considering Zero was pretty much marrying into X’s family, but I kinda liked the JP name for it, hence the name “Hikari”.

It’ll probably be retconned from the second christmas special audio drama I posted back in January of 2020 (when it was supposed to be December of 2019, but- things happened during that time).

Then I realized retconning things do happen, especially if I’m going through one idea that I go with on the first go. That usually stays with character designs or anything visual, and I have to remind myself it doesn’t apply to story related things on my end.

Though, back on topic, I thought Hikari would work best. Especially if they’re to have a child of their own. Which will get touched upon at some point, I promise lmao.

Plus, I think having a name they both can specially share sounds cute, right~? I think you would like to do that for any of your ships you wanna have to marry each other too, wouldn’t you~? If not, that’s okay, I don’t think I’m not the only one with this thought process for otps like this~.

MMX Code: Crimpphire World Building Part 2 - Abel City

I'll finally be able to talk about the other city that was the start of the main focus, but it waned after it was nuked by Sigma. Abel City. If you wanna see the one on Mega City, you can see it here

NEW CHAPTER ON AO3

Now I was thinking it could be Arcadia, since that took place in the Archie Comics, but I have been planning since 2019 for it to be Abel City, since that was implemented in the Day of Sigma OVA. And that’s going to be included in the AU, so checks out~.

Without further ado- let’s get on with what Abel City would be like for the AU~.

First, we look at the “Mysterious Gloree” Woods Preservation Center!! There are places in the country of Glockthain that preserve many woods in 21XX, and Abel city is one of them. Unfortunately, it gets damaged in the missile attack Sigma launched onto the city

Then we have The Answer Bar and Club!! It’s a place Zero liked to go with his unit after a good job well done. He hardly ever saw the point in going to a bar, but he liked having fun. He found more of a reason to go when X started acing his ranks and going up, and being at Rank B by the time Day of Sigma Arc rolled around

Shushiko restaurant is next, and of course of the name, it’s a sushi restaurant~. It’s a conveyor belt restaurant too~. X and Zero like going there every once in a while, again before the missile attack hit Abel City

And then we have Arthur Cain Park. A park dedicated to our loveable Dr Cain. And yes, his first name is Arthur in this AU, which I felt fit~. Maybe I can make a separate headcanon to explain my thought process about it, if you guys would like~

And if we can direct your attention to another place called “Pockets of Time Antiques”. A store Xev went to with Dr Cain before he became a hunter. Since X was very interested in old things from the past, Cain decided to indulge him more into that, and music boxes caught his interest more than anything else in the world. They still made them in his time, but they weren’t made as much as they were back in the 19th and 20th centuries. The 21st still had music boxes, but they aren’t made with much care as they were back in those days.

Going into Maverick Hunter territory, Abel City Maverick Hunter HQ and its Base Landing Pad were quite a building. Of course, you’ve seen it in the OVA, it’s towering high in over 30 stories and sporting the Maverick Hunter logo up at the top. And it has a flat top as well for helicopters and Hunters that fly, like Storm Eagle to land onto. Of course, they have to be authorized to land on HQ but they are allowed to land as such with that in mind

And then there are the three schools located around Abel City. The Elementary School of Trinity, holding Grades k-6, Eagle Mountain Junior High School, housing grades 7-9, and Frozen Promise High School, housing grades 10-12. Not to mention there’s a community college and university combo building called Holy Cypress.

Now to address if there’s a holding facility with the HQ. Which there is, except it’s a death row facility called Nightmare Max Security Penitentiary. It’s something taking place where termination of Mavericks were the only option at the time before Abel City was nuked with missiles. Later on in the story, it’s more considered to give Mavericks another chance other than termination thanks to, of course, X.

Lastly, we have the Gentle Oak Memorial Park. There, they held many fallen bystanders and Hunters in very gruesome Maverick attacks, and there is a program that helps pay respects to those who’ve fallen. Idk what they would be called but I’m sure there would be at least a significant name for their efforts to be remembered.

And that should be it for Abel City~! I’ll hopefully post more world building as I post the fic series~.

Headcanon - Xev and Axl headcanoned as autistic

AND A LITTLE MORE ON AXL IN THIS!!

I'm struggling coming up with headcanons lately and wanna write other things, so I might stop for a little bit after this one. My backlog of headcanons are a little short right now, esp ones that aren't spoiler heavy, so I'll stop for the moment and focus on writing other fics

Once I'll have more headcanons, you'll know when I post a new one!! Especially the world building headcanons when I write more for the towns!! I might post something I'm planning on writing today which I can finally post a new series on AO3 I've been meaning to make for the past few years!! I'm excited!!

Anyway, have this lengthy headcanon I have a lot of thoughts on~

Half a headcanon for Axl and half not for X just yet, I’m still deciding but

I wanted to talk about this primarily because I wanted some characters I can relate to in regards to this topic. Plus, either one has tendencies in one having the potential and the other having that kind of vibe period. At least to me, in most regards.

NEW CHAPTER ON AO3

I pretty much viewed Axl mostly with the autism I had in mind. Pretty much similar abilities and disabilities to mine- basically kinda projecting from this character but also making him his own, pretty much canon in his own right, and also kinda tweaking him to what I personally view him as.

We all know Axl is the young and ambitious but risk taking and noble hunter we've known up to X8. But that's basically all we know about him. I'll touch on his backstory sometime when I finally start the bio series for these characters.

But point is, that's all we know, and we don't have anything else to go off of except for our headcanons of him and depict it best we can from the source material. And this is my take on him besides the autism headcanon: He's a young adult and very ambitious, but from what he's learned from Red himself and his team of wannabe Maverick Hunters, he learns to adapt to his delta nano powers, gain close friendships and learn what his goal and purpose would be in life. Especially after certain events in his life that change it drastically. One that brings him into Red Alert into the first place, and years later after something happens to his found family.

He had to rush to the Maverick Hunters and rush for help in a panic when he couldn't face whatever was happening, and he was torn apart until he got to meet X and Zero in person. Except they're going through something themselves that he eventually had to get into the middle of. Especially bonding with Zero and trying to talk to X, which doesn't work.

Basically kind of a reverse scenario with Iris talking to Xev while Axl talks to Zero more in depth. And I do mean the key words being "kind of". Since Zero briefly talked to Iris, and he didn't need much talking to, for Xev, he needed budging. Whereas with Zero and Axl, he definitely needed that push as well down that time in the main story.

And he helps bring X and Zero back to their realities they needed to face and they, of course, face the big baddie head on. Which won't be Sigma, but I won't spoil who else ;3. Especially after this, he starts gaining a heart of gold and has another found family he can protect once he takes his powers and training more seriously. So he won't lose that second found family like he did his previous one.

Anyway, yeah that's what his general character is like in the AU, now for the Autistic headcanon. I don't know exactly where I got it from, other than I KNEW he had the vibes for it. So I slowly implemented what he would want as a stimulant, what he hyper focuses on, what his hyper fixations will be, what his sensory issues are, etc.

To which, I list that he stims with rubbing his thumbs, squishing things, vocal stimming and rocking. Either in a rocking chair or swinging. He gets a swing later on when his autism is being made more aware of in Hunter Base. He hyper focuses on what he vibes with and what he wants to do in that moment.

Anyway, what his hyper fixations/special interests would be, is he would wanna write music and play on his electric guitar. He loves stimming to softly playing and hearing the electric chords, btw. He loves doing it. He also hyper fixates on German Rock and hard rock from the 80s. Such as Def Leppard. he's a HUUUUUGE fan. Rick Savage, the late Steve Clark, and Joe Elliot are his favorite band members. He feels connected to them, and sometimes feels sad that he can't meet them, being he's in 21XX/22XX, and they're all long dead by then. Unless someone makes reploids out of them if their minds are preserved in data ;3. But, continuing on, he is OBSESSED with music theory and wants to write his own songs. Zero wants to write songs and has music theory down to an absolute tee- however, he won't know how to condense his deep love and feelings for Xev. He asks Axl for help, and they both collab and write a song together, which helps Zero gain an extra boost of experience in writing songs, which gives him the chance to write another song condensing his feelings for Xev for their wedding by writing "Only One Blue Jay in the Sky". What they both write together is called "Bird Wings Glide".

I’ll probably make another headcanon when I get the details down on the songwriting process of the two and Zero’s feelings and possibly the lyrics to what they’d be like in another post, maybe.

Another special interest he has is squishies. He loves to squish things, as stated previously, and squishies are his number 1 go to for that. He also loves pushing buttons or tapping on things. Especially when he loves making certain noises that tickle his neurodivergent A-Chip. He also loves remaking them. Repurposing them into something and making them into his own style he loves to make into art. Yeah, if you couldn't tell, Axl actually loves watching Moriah Elizabeth on Youtube lol. Don't worry about if youtube's still a thing or not, idk if I wanna figure that out for the AU at all yet lmao.

His sensory issues would be with smell and texture from coconuts, human bones (like basically touching them, especially the marrow), soapy water with grease, seeds in jam (yes, I said jam, not jelly), large crowds (especially when they touch him unprompted), sitting still without able to stim at all (I'm debating on headcannoning him with ADHD as well, haven’t decided yet), textures that feel rough (in his words, "icky", which I feel that, man) when rubbed the opposite direction of a texture he loves feeling. It's a very complicated one we both feel tbh haha

Anyway, that's all I can name at the top of my head, I'll probably make a list specifically to both his and Xev's things they have troubles with.

Which, speaking of Xev, it's still a more up in the air kind of thing, since I'm still not sure. This headcanon kind of spurs from a friend's headcanon I got from, @curtashiism specifically. They had an X that was headcanoned autistic and I really liked it cuz he had the potential to have autism, and it made the most sense to me so I figured I'd think about if I wanted the same thing for mine.

But I'm still unsure about it, really, even if I'm leaning towards wanting to do it. So, if I ever fully decide to go that route, I'll post the list of stuff he has trouble with, as well as his strengths in terms of what he loves doing, etc.

I hope y'all liked this post/chapter and felt connected in some way, cuz I def sure do~. Anyway, that's it!! Hope this was also a fascinating read~.

Headcanon - Xev's Birthday being September 18th

I wanted to post this before midnight but I was doing a lot at once so oop. Oh well. It’s still the 18th until I sleep damn it lol

ANYWAY, I thought I might, for this occasion, write for Xev’s birthday and why it’s headcanoned to be on Sep 18th

As you know, there’s a note by Dr Light in the first game, if we all remember.

[Source: Megaman Fandom Wiki]

This was probably, what I can deduce, at least, is when Dr Light sealed X, right? But I kinda made that a little later, and his creation date to be on that day. Why? Idk I thought it would be cool to have his birthday be close to mine, close to other muses who’s also in september, and him being a Virgo just… made sense lmao

Shipping wise, after Zero finds out what birthdays are, and what Xev’s is, he wanted to give him a gift, and it’s become tradition that he gives him a present and makes him a cake once he learned how to cook and bake. Not to mention he started doing this when they were both still best friends and gradually became more sentimental as they became lovers.

That’s really all on why, and I thought I’d share~. Though I did briefly mention on Xev’s birthday in the headcanon on why he was a month older than Zero.

I’ll probably share more on Zero’s creation date maybe. Since I never did specify on why he had the creation date he does and he actually has a birthday he associates with that isn’t part of his creation.

So I’ll post that when that date comes up~.

NEW CHAPTER ON AO3

[mmx-code-crimpphire]

Headcanon - X is a month older than Zero

Since I haven’t made this into a headcanon post yet, I might as well do it now since I’m sure some of you are curious

Timeline wise, Xevdex was activated officially on September 18, 20XX. And he’s been that way for a little bit to meet and spend time with his family. Since that’s supposed to be a peaceful time where Wily isn’t around.

The rumors of him being dead since the last incident, which was the time of Megaman 11, have risen and the people of Mega City are relaxing and thinking Megaman’s done his job. Some opinions have risen as well politically about Robot Masters being put out of commission and bringing the Mayor of the town on edge. But that’s definitely another post for another day.

That’ll be more touched upon there, and the times during both the boy’s activations will be very brief in this post and the details will be put into another.

Anyway, Xev’s time is September 18th. And as some of you know, Zero’s activation is October 25th, over a month later.

Some shit starts to happen here that gets worse as it progresses after that. In a very brief summary, Wily’s been hiding in a 12th fortress after the failure in the events of MM11, he’s been working nonstop on Zero for two whole years. Not stopping once.

Some shit happens, bass happens to be there to help cuz he was spying and he chews the ever so growing older man out for his idiocy. Which, nothing ever changes with Wily, being so stubborn as he is.

So- that’s literally the timeline with X and Zero’s “birth” as it were~. Along with the very brief timelines with what happens in those events. I will make another post about them too, but they’ll still be brief as they’ll be written out as a story possibly soon~.

Plus, I kinda wanna give off the illusion within the story where people speculate Zero’s the older one when that’s not really true, and because of Zero’s “unknown” activation date within the X timeline into Crimpphire-verse, it’s not even known to Xev or Zero themselves that X is a month older.

I’ll tell you, though, once they find out and talk about it, there will be hurt/comfort within it, and they’ll soon laugh about it, since they themselves have even thought X was younger the whole time. When again, that wasn’t true at all.

I should make this a short story within this series if I can’t fit it into the actual timeline somewhere lol

Headcanon - X and Zero sharing a specil unit together

I wanted to briefly touch upon this, but I don't think I'll spoil when this is gonna happen, or who initiates the idea to Signas. You'll have to wait until I write it within the fic ;3

Basically, we all remember that X and Zero are captains of their seperate units, both 17th and Special 0th Units respectively, right? Well, what if I told you that eventually, because they're so inseparable, and they work as a team so well, that someone suggests to Signas that there should be a special unit for them to co-lead and be able to work together way more often, since they rarely ever had time to whilst working for the Maverick Hunters ever since. Hell, it's been since being under Sigma's 14th unit that they haven't been able to work together like that. It's been since X3, and lemme tell you, it'll be a while before that event actually happens between them. Not too long, but it's still quite a bit.

Anyway, I just wanted to talk briefly about this and let y'all know they do get their own unit they share together. They can work solo, but they work better together~.

Headcanon - How Bass and Rock formed their bond

As you know, Bass and Rock are a ship in this AU, tho not as intimately as X and Zero (for obvious reasons), they still are pretty close and have become the pre XZero ship in a sense, yet not. And I'll explain. It has a little bit of spoilers but I tried to make them as vague as possible, so if I fail at that, I apologize lmao.

NEW CHAPTER ON AO3

They have the Enemies to Lovers thing going for them, and Bass has this mindset of being the strongest, of course. But after realizing that Wily only wants him there to destroy Megaman, and especially after trying to treat him like his own child, Bass realizes he’s being treated the complete opposite, and even worse, like shit.

So, he takes matters into his own hands and runs off to find Blues and see if he can join the Wanderers. He gets a cape-like scarf from Tengu Man and his code expands from there. He then gets to know Rock and starts… feeling something within and he doesn’t understand what it may be, since he never felt this feeling before.

Rock, on the other hand, after Bass joins the Wanderers, he feels skeptical at first, but is happy Bass had joined with Blues. He decided to talk to him, and their first meeting actually went well. While Bass is starting to feel this thing he’s never felt before, Rock starts feeling it about a little while after him.

They feel more awkward around each other, but Rock initiates more friendly gestures with him.

They both start to ask for advice. Bass is more vague about it while Rock is trying to be, but isn’t showing that all too well. They ask both Blues and Dr Light respectively. They both realize they have feelings for each other but neither make a move until X and Zero come into the scene.

Yeah, there’s an arc where X and Zero accidentally get sent back to the past, but I won’t spoil too much here and I’ll make another post/chapter about this, I promise~.

But it’s when the boys come in and come out that they’re in a relationship, it was then both Bass and Rock realized they needed to make a move. Bass decides to make it, which surprises Rock a little bit but couldn’t keep his excitement in check.

It’s a little after this that they become way closer and they become an adorable couple.

They only are together for a few years before the climax of the end of the prequel hits, and they separated by means I will not spoil.

But that’s basically the gist of it, and I will say, though, they will have a chance to reunite after all~. Because before I decided to initiate the climax, I thought it would be more anticlimactic and Bass would have to live without Rock in the Reploid Era.

But now I have different plans in mind, and I can’t wait to talk about them when the time comes~.

[mmx-code-crimpphire]

Headcanon - Why Zero chose "Omega" as a surname

To put it simply, it is mainly for the fact he didn’t want to be associated with the name “Wily” anywhere in his name.

This can apply to most other AUs I have been developing behind the scenes, especially the Elfen Lied AU, Buffyverse AU (goes by a different last name), or even the Hero AU (same applies here, different last name, associating with the similar take with the Buffyverse AU).

I might write more about these AUs if anyone’s interested in seeing anything written upon them~. I might make a separate chapter story thingy with them or something, just so I can info dump these things SOMEWHERE lmao. And on tumblr, I can probably just post them on the XZero Hoarder blog. Something like that~. I won’t do it tho unless people are interested hehe~.

ANYWAY BACK ON TOPIC LMAO

He goes with “Omega”, to which he doesn’t know why, but he goes with it anyway. Little did he know, it was part of a little, tiny voice within his mind to go with it. And he goes from there, especially stating his full name.

Where Omega came from in the first place, the little tiny voice that was urging him to go along with that, I think you may know where this is going~. Of course, I won’t go into too much detail and make that for another post/chapter. I’m sure at least some are very curious about it~. I’m kinda excited to write about it, but I won’t be able to post about it until later or it’ll be very brief until I’m able to write more for the hc itself.

Though, he does change his surname to “Hikari” once he gets married with X, though~. Which I’ll also probably go more into depth of, but DEFINITELY not now.

Anyway yeah, there’s the reasons why Zero goes by “Omega” as a surname for the AU~.

NEW CHAPTER ON AO3

[mmx-code-crimpphire]

Headcanon - The Robot Master Wanderers

Since I know this won't get touched upon in detail within the story, so I might as well make a post/chapter about this.

NEW CHAPTER ON AO3!!

So - Protoman aka Blues, makes a group called the Robot Master Wanderers. He makes this out of other Robot Masters wanting to escape being Wily's robot, to explore the world as a human would, or explore beyond their programming. It didn't start out that way, of course.

But Blues did it all on his own. It all starts by running away to not have his personality taken from him just to get his core fixed. Yes, I think you noticed I got this from the Archie Comics. From there, Wily finds him and he becomes part of Wily's legion of robots and fights out of his newfound hatred for Dr Light.

Until he meets Rock in person. They fight and Blues realizes how much Rock cares for their creator. No matter if Rock has a driven purpose or not. Rock trying to convince Blues that Dr Light isn't a bad person and that he doesn't want to destroy any part of him, is the first instance of his code expansion-

Damn I should make a delta nano headcanon part 2- since it started from code expansion, plus Blues' independence, his coding helping with that.

Anyway- It's, of course, a visible change, albeit subtle, and Blue definitely notices it.

He then learns that Wily only temporarily fixed him, and he decided to run off again. Fighting alongside Rock. He then finds another Robot Master named Night Man, who was one of Cossack's Robot Masters and they grow a friendship in a short matter of time. I'll also make another post about Night Man and who he is, don't worry. But I'll have to get my best friend's permission first, cuz it is his character so- ye lmao

But yeah they wander together while helping Rock as he fights the Robot Masters tied to Wily and Wily himself within his Wily Machines.

Over the course of the two wandering, they find a few Robot Masters have escaped Wily's clutches to find out about their story and rumors circulating around them. Some were curious about their wanderings and if they could do the same, and Blues knows they can do what they please, as long as they don't hurt other humans, referring to the First Law of Robotics.

Which I may also touch upon. Man, I'm thinking of other headcanons I wanna post from this one alone, jesus.

I'll put in the list of wanderers they acquire throughout the story of Classic, and a little bit of X in the AU.

In order of joining in the Robot Master Era, we have

-Protoman/Blues (DLN-000) -Night Man (DCN-009) -Metal Man (DWN-009) -Skull Man (DCN-008) -Star Man (DWN-037) -Tengu Man (DWN-057) -Bass Maestro (SWN-001) -Tornado Man (DLN-010) -Splash Woman (DLN-011) -Jewel Man (DLN-013) -Chill Man (DWN-076) -Sheep Man (DWN-077) -Solar Man (DWN-080) -Block Man (DLN-017) -Fuse Man (DLN-018) -Blast Man (DLN-019) -Tundra Man (DCN-010)

And in the Replioid Era we have

-Kejicchi (Who I'll also touch upon, and he's my OC huehue) -ProtoBlues (SLN-REP-000) -Nocturnal Bat (SCN-REP-001) -Bass “Fortenium” Maestro (SLN-REP-001) -Dynamo -Night Shade -Axl (Temporary) -Lumine (Temporary)

The reason why Axl and Lumine go in temporarily is when Axl tries to ask the Hunters for help in X7 Arc, he teams up with Keji, who also fights alongside Zero. I can't wait to write that arc too omg.

And why it's temporary for Lumine is after his redemption arc starts (yes, he gets one), he goes to Keji and Blues to see if he could join somewhere, so he won't be cooped up at Hunter Base all day. And Keji welcomes him to the club. And so he and Axl can find their respective creator, since she went missing after Lumine went under quarantine for his very dangerous variant of the Maverick Virus.

After they find her, they all live together as a family, a domestic life they all wish they had and are having their wish come true.

And because of the Wanderers starting in the Robot Master Era, they have code expanded on them as well, Blues being untouched most of the time, because his already does that on its own. X's does too, of course, but on a wayyyyy more advanced level compared to Blues.

Bass' code expands when he joins the Wanderers and gets a torn cape from Tengu Man to try and find Blues to join. Especially being closer to Rock.

Oh- and the Wanderers have a theme of wearing capes, cloaks, and scarfs, thanks to blues starting that with wearing his own scarf. But it's unintentional, he swears upon it. The others just started wearing their own after a while and he established the group officially.

And- there you have it. A brief history of how the Wanderers became an official group of Robot Masters who would expand their coding to experience things and to be able to break the obey code for the Three Laws of Robotics. As well as Blues internally promising to himself that he would redeem robots having independence like him and hot have a stigma of Robots being dangerous.

Which may hint that he may feel responsible for starting the obey code become a reality in the first place >w>

Headcanon: how X and Zero's Promise turned into a Proposal

I'm sure a lot of you have seen the chapter in the fanfic I wrote, right here.

Since it'll be similar yet not, I suggest you read the story here before continuing further. It is also a big spoiler, but not as big as some of my other ones I'm saving for later. So if you don't want spoilers on how I think I wanna write this for the main story, then you can keep going.

But I don't mind if you keep going, that's fine too~.

NEW CHAPTER ON AO3!!

Of course, you already know about the headcanon of X and Zero's Important Promise, right?

Well, what if I told you that the promise turns into a half proposal? Lemme explain.

X and Zero get a chance to be alone on the cliffside, the one where Zero found to be one of their favorite spots to be alone. It's a heartfelt moment between the two and Zero pops the question. He still kneels on one knee but Xev is sitting down instead of standing up (compared to the chapter I write in the XZero 2023 fic anyways).

Zero thought about this for months. Thinking about this even before being sent out to the shuttle to destroy the Eurasia Colony when the Enigma failed. He thought if he couldn't do this now, he'd never have much of a chance. At least that's what he felt at that time. Especially carrying the baggage of trauma that came with coming back a second time. So, Zero wanted to get this out in the best opportunity he possibly thought it could be.

They are actually alone this time, and they extend the promise to marry whenever they get the chance peace is finally being achieved. They can't wait for it to completely die down, because that was too unrealistic, especially for Zero. Knowing how much they'd still have to fight down or any villain that may try to rise up against them. But they know they'll be ready when it happens.

They don't make it known until someone notices Xev's ring is on his ring finger instead of his pinky finger. Alia or Iris, honestly, but if they had to keep it a secret, Iris would definitely keep it under wraps. Whilst Alia probably wouldn't but keep it vague that no one would know what she was talking about. She's a bit of a gossiper but with something like this, with Xev and Midnight being her close friends, she knows how secrets like this are important to them. Especially if they wanted to have a wedding that's pretty selective with friends and a few hunters that won't out them as badly.

I'll still make a post/chapter briefly on how their wedding will go. It'll be more in detail in the domestic fanfic I wanna make, starting with the wedding. It'll be a couple chapters long. The wedding will have a short recap in the main story and I'm excited to make it all detailed in the separate fanfic still connected to the AU. It'll be in the short stories series, even if it won't be a short story, technically, cuz it'll have chapters but YEAH!

That's pretty much it and I can't wait to touch upon the moment it happens!!
