#so adding a weirdly magical descendant toby would be fitting

@#this is really good but i had to put my phone down and stare at a wall for several minutes because her name is megan#And that sounds similar to a debunked theory about her#or i could be reading into it too much

@yellowmagicalgirl if in your tags you were referring to Momgana on my Nonbinary Toby ficlet, that was a (happy) accident.

My next story in my Nana’s Troll Husband AU is supposed to focus around Ralph (in a similar way Shadow did Barbara) and “Megan” was a working name I came up with for his wife/Toby’s mom back a few months ago when I was developing my ideas for that.  I just reused the name for the nonbinary Toby ficlet since I already had it.

So, originally, not a Momgana reference.

buuuuuuuuuut

in the au, Ralph is the son of Nana and Vraxel the troll.  Ergo he’s a Troll/human hybrid who, to some extent, has access to Troll society/locations (at the very least he knows trolls exist and there’s some magical places in the world).

I think somewhere in my notes there’s a potential backstory for him where he spent some time after college traveling the world.

also in my notes, he has romance troubles due to trying to navigate telling potential spouses that his dad’s a troll and he’s not exactly completely human (and also that he’s not quite sure he can have kids due to the whole first ever known hybrid of his kind thing).  It’s sort of a turn-off for most (in one potential storyline I had the “Megan” character dump him bc of it).

anyway, the point that I’m rambling toward is that it could totally be possible in my au that Ralph, while traveling the world, meets a girl who just so happens to be a sorceress who knows about trolls.

Maybe he’s visiting an ancient troll site and happens to run into the one other human in existence (who’s not his freaking mom) who knows about trolls.

Maybe he has to rescue her from goblins or something.

Maybe it’s too much to actually be a coincidence if he actually considers it longer than he does his relief that, for once, he won’t have to explain the weirder aspects of his life.

Also “Megan” has really, really pretty green eyes and Ralph is a hopeless romantic tbh.

So they maybe get together.

And Ralph really doesn’t consider he may have freed a reborn Morgana from imprisonment at that ancient troll site until he brings his new girlfriend (or wife, cause he’d totally be the type to get married quickly while abroad and then come home with her) home to Arcadia and his parents are like what the everlasting fuck Ralph we raised you better than this didn’t we? holy shit you’ve brought home an ancient sorceress.

Alternatively

Nana & Vraxel just shrug and accept “Megan” as a part of their family and slice-of-life hijinks ensue with a family made up of 1 human, 1 troll, 1 hybrid, and 1 ancient sorceress.

and later the 1/4 troll, 1/4 human, 1/2 magical offspring known as Toby.

in hindsight I’m not sure I really wanted to go down this rabbit hole but i’ve gone down it and here we are

none of this was planned before now but the similarities in names got me thinking that i could potentially pull it off and um yeah then this happened
