Nobody:

Me, making a typo while writing:

Please tell me someone gets this

[nylahlahlah]

Squad 312 headcanons because it's my birthday today :D

After AE, Tyler and Finian became incredibly close, due to Scarlett. Like, best friends close. And because Kal is Tyler's brother and loves teasing Fin, the three boys became a tiny family within the family, a group unofficial brothers <3

Scarlett takes Auri on massive shopping sprees so she can feel more at home in space with her own wardrobe. Auri fittingly almost spends all the allowance on shoes, to which Scarlett says she actually needs clothes. (Kal later buys her shoes)

Kal washes his hands after a shower.

Saedii and Fin get along like a house on fire, obviously, but what Fin didn't know was that Saedii spoke Betraskan, and they would use it to talk shit, basically. (Scarlett quickly joins the gossip group and the others have given up on trying to figure out what they're saying)

After the events of AE, every og member of 312 gets a different winged creature tattooed to remember Cat. Similarly, they all get identical two circles to represent Zila and her earrings.

EACH MEMBER OF 312 GIVING EACH OTHER DATING ADVICE DEPENDING ON WHO THEY NEED IT FOR

While he doesn't write songs himself, Kal has the most gorgeous singing voice. Auri does not. This makes for some adorable but interesting duets when they're alone.

Auri is like Tyler's younger sister and I will DIE on this hill, WHY DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT THEM-

Tyler starts swearing more frequently. When he dropped a mug and swore for the first time, the room was dead silent. He was insecure about swearing anymore after that

Zila makes herself a library in the past with Nari, and writes each member of 312 a personal note with a book page attached.

Betraskan food is spicy as hell, and Syldrathi food is sweeter. As a result, although she would NEVER admit it, Saedii almost barfed when having traditional Betraskan chilli for the first time.

Scarlett does each girl's makeup every now and again. Their respective boyfriends get very flustered every time she does.

Tyler gets Kal really into Rugby, and they become the most stereotypical Rugby men at bars you've ever seen once there's a game on.

Auri dyes her white streak different colors a lot due to it being very easy, and Saedii starts helping her, and soon they have hair dye sessions! (Scar does not join in as she only lets her hairdresser of ten years anywhere near her hair)

Anyway that's all I got right now, but just thought it would be nice to drop something seeing as it's my birthday!

would like to highlight That One Part of AR:

"Um," Auri whispers. "Sorry, but is someone touching my butt?" "...Would you like someone to be touching your butt?" Fin asks. Kal clears his throat. "If you wish it, I–"

what do we think he was about to say? personally I think he was about to offer that he touch Auri's butt or something which sounds weird when I put it like that but is entirely as awkward as I believe Kal could be

[auri-ace]

Kinda sad how there's no hugger 😭

!! major aurora's end spoilers !!

this might just be peak delusion but in auri's flashback thingy with her sister in the echo, she says callie looks like she’s around her mid-thirties which would be the age she was in 2177, the year fin/scar/zila time travel to in aurora's end (i’m assuming she was around 15/16 when auri left for octavia in 2160, making callie in her early 30s in 2177). that could be why fin/scar/zila were sent back in time to such a specific date, because that eshavren crystal that transported them there was mentally connected w auri OK THE MORE IM EXPLAINING IT THE LESS ITS MAKING SENSE but ur catching my drift right. OR the reason auri mentally went to a time where callie was such a specific age was bc of scar/fin/zila’s time travel. i cant decide which is the dependent variable and which is the independent but i feel like there’s smth here.

Admiral Adams and Battle Leader de Stoy: We have left you gifts that will be vital to your survival

Finian de Seel:

[After Cat suggests flushing Auri out the airlock]

Kal: You can't do that.

Cat: Why not?

Kal: Because you don't have all the information.

Cat: Which is?

Kal: I love her.

His loss is like my loss. It's a story about losing people who aren't yet gone.

[gergthecat]

guys should i kill saedii

(im joking)

(no im not)

[nylahlahlah]

do you guys ever think about how in the second-last chapter of aurora's end when auri wakes up from being consumed by the ra'haam and it says kal had his cheeks streaked with tears?? like he wasnt just crying, he was sobbing. and do you ever think of the mental image of kal kneeling over aurora's body, caressing her hand to his lips as he sobbed over what he thought was her dead body, blood and dark crystal surrounding them as he thought his reason for discovering love and opening his eyes to the beauty in the world had died? or just me idk

meditations on perfection.

I.

Equilibrium, asymmetric harmony: A delicate balance, Precision like a knife’s end.

II.

And there will forevermore be sharpness: at the ends of my body and in the core of my heart, in the corners of my vision when the world dims around me and at the depth of my blood as it sings for the night.

III.

I speak softly to her in the darkness, telling her of the seconds.  The way my mother looked the moment when last I saw her. A fragile frame. An image of leaves pressing itself on my mouth, dry and dusty and cracking. The way it feels to be nine years old and to feel blistering pain in your forehead. Your legs. Your heart. The way it feels to be eighteen, and to silently, painfully, solely, mourn. The taste of the tea my father made, because I miss my mother, but I flee no longer.

IV.

And there will forevermore be softness: at the beginning when I caught my breath and in the way milk and inklike hair curl together, in the moments when the world falls away and at last, we are alone.

V.

Silence, often. Emptiness: and a feeling, slow dust, and cold light. Ice glazing over my eyes. Contentment: and a knowledge, company. I do not need to see her; I know that I can.  Quilts on the bed and rugs on the floor, muffling both pairs of feet. Small home, chi’irnaa. Her rice cooker on the counter and my small wooden carvings.

VI.

Fear, acrid tension: A change in the air, Unexpected newness, neridaa.

VII.

I will be the man my father would scorn, I swear to her one night, and she cups my face.

VIII.

Lilacs outside the window.  Sweet perfumed air.  Drones and insects curving their path through humid heat. A lazily spinning mobile in the corner. It catches the moonlight sometimes, pieces of colored glass.

IX.

“I love you, Kal.”
