#tiergan alenefar is a dad

[floofeeeeee]

Au where Sophie get fostered by Tiergan instead of Grady and edaline

[obsidianstrawberrymilk]

Tiergan is Indian and the reason he’s blonde is bc he had a phase 10000 years ago in Foxfire he never managed to undo ty for coming to my ted talk

[synonymroll648]

tiertice, aka the Sad Dads-

[you-have-been-frizzled]

latching onto grady and edaine is what happens when you have two parents who absolutely hate each other

latching on to Kesline is what happens when your “dad” is an absent alcoholic cheater

Tiergan Alenefar by @xanadaus

Wylie Endal by @shikse

Propaganda:

Tiergan Alenefar:

"mr transgenderism himself!!!!!!!! he dresses up as a rock he tries to deck alden hes even a dilf… idk guys hes just really been through it he deserves this one thing pleasey <3" (anonymous)

"would let him probe me" (anonymous)

"she's a man he's a woman they're a rock star. he's sad. he's gay. he spent (whatever number of books we're on now) completely ignoring heterosexual bullshit and sad gay monologuing about his lover. his introduction to the series was him yelling at alden vacker. he adopts every child in the vicinity. he lives in a house with five million stairs because he hates interacting with people. what more could you possibly want in a character." @gay-otlc

"please he's the gayest bitch here just let him sweep. biggest upset ever in history. he didn't get to have his boyfriend for nearly half the series please vote for tiergan and let him live in peace </3 better blond </3 </3" @xanadaus

"He's cool, he's goofy, he listens to the Beatles and is the reason that I can't sleep sometimes" @arcturus-ohala

Wylie Endal:

"My baby has been through SO MUCH HE IS SO STRONG. And he gets awesome sause character development. He lost his dad and mom, which he blames on Sophie, but still trusts her enough to let her into his mind in Lodestar after he got TORTURED by the Neverseen. Not only that but he begins working as a team with Biana, a Vacker, in Legacy even though her father is responsible for about 30% of his trauma. Not only that but in Flashback he risked his life to safe Fitz and Sophie. He is truly the best keeper boy. Vote for him PUHLEASE." @midasx9

[arcturus-ohala]

RIP my sister

I got this lovely headcannon/weird idea abt the Endall/Alenefar family once Prentice had woken up and my little sister had to sit and listen to it so ya'll get to also:

When Wylie was 7/8 (before Prentice's banishment), he suspected Tiergan had a crush on Pren but said nothing bc he thought 'im 8 how would i know?'

It's been 12 years and now Pren is back, and Tiergan did his stuff (like, the way Tier talks to Pren and talks about him is genuinely funny) and Wylie's thinking 'maybe 8yrold me was smarter than I thought' and every valentines he justs walks by Tiergan saying stuff like 'Hey (friends name) did you hear about the date PRENTICE WENT ON?!' trying to get a reaction out of Dad#2 until one day he says something about a date and Tiergan finally reacts and it just goes something like this

W (with Sophie): Hey Sophie did you hear about my Dad's DATE YESTERDAY?

S: *trying to not stare at Tiergan* y-yeah..?

T: *finally looking up* Wylie what date (internal monologue if i react maybe he'll stop this time

W: *panicking bc he's never gotten this far* uhmm- the date that dad went on yesterday- *voice cracking* at 12 in the afternoon- at- at his house??

T: *deadpan face* ???!?! That was NOT a date we were just hanging out!

W: WaitholdupWHAT???

(Sophie's there bc shes always in peoples family drama for some reason)

Thanks for coming to my TED talk

Round 1, Match 7: Yondu Udonta vs. Tiergan Alenefar

Submitted kids:

Yondu Udonta: The entire MCU guardians of the galaxy gang

Tiergan Alenefar: Wylie Endal, Tam and Linh Song (legally). Every other child character emotionally

Propaganda under the cut!

Yondu Udonta:

My boy Yondu may be a pretty bad father but damn is he trying his best. Man kidnapped some kid to (unknowingly) send him to his death then felt bad about it and kept him. Then said kid dragged a bunch of pathetic little guys into their silly little found family and now they're THE found family ever.

Tiergan Alenefar:

This man is perhaps the most serial adopter of anyone. Legally adopted his best friend’s (fanon: lover’s) kid after he got put into basically a coma for years. Tam and linh ran away from home, and he housed them, too. He also serves as a father figure for every other teenage character. He’s gay, he’s a dad, he serves and slays, what more could you ask for?

la vie te blesse souvent (tiertice)

happy one year help me hold on to you anniversary! and by happy i mean sad. have some more angst

Summary: An exploration of guilt, anger, and grief, through the eyes of the two remaining members of the Alenefar-Endal family.

Ao3

@cogaytes

To be Tiergan Alenefar is to have anger rushing through your veins, sizzling and boiling and cursing the names of all those who have hurt the ones you love. To be Tiergan Alenefar is to wait just too long for the words on the tip of your tongue to slip out; to resign yourself to mournful silence, alone and melancholic in your tower. 

And to be Prentice Endal is to love him, however much it kills you. "And it did kill you, didn't it?" Tiergan says, into silence. Always into silence. 

Prentice’s chest rises slightly beneath Tiergan's hand, and he sighs with relief. Tiergan half-expects that one day, Prentice will take his final breath right beside him, on a typical afternoon like today’s. He half-expects, each time he tells a story to his unconscious best friend, that it will be the last story Prentice hears. 

If Prentice can hear anything at all. 

Tiergan resists the urge to punch the wall. He has work today; it would be incredibly unprofessional to show up with bloody knuckles. He doesn't particularly care about Leto's reaction—stars know that the man has seen him in worse conditions—but he'd rather like to keep his students’ impression of him as a confident, capable mentor. And, besides, if Sophie and Fitz were to think that something was wrong with him or Prentice, they would drop everything to help. 

Tiergan doesn't need that. 

The only people he wants beside him are his two best friends, but one is dead and one is here: unblinking, unmoving. 

Somehow, that's worse. At least Tiergan has no hope of meeting Cyrah, no optimistic notion that she'll rise from the ground beneath her Wanderling tree and offer him the comfort that he so desperately requires. 

A knock on the door interrupts Tiergan's endless spiral of thoughts. 

"Dad?" Wylie asks. He drops his satchel beside the door and rushes to Tiergan's side. "Is everything alright?"

Tiergan opens his mouth to say yes, of course, why do you ask, and a salty tear slips onto his tongue. Ah. Tiergan doesn't need a mirror to know that his eyeliner must be everywhere right now, smudged with sadness and tears he didn't know he was shedding. "I'm fine," Tiergan says, voice raspy. "Everything is fine, Wylie."

Wylie stares at him. "If you're sure," he replies, and Tiergan's grateful for it. 

They sit in silence, together, for a long moment. Wylie appears to be studying the intricacies of the floorboard design. 

“How was school?” Tiergan finally asks. Usually, he isn’t one for small talk—but this isn’t that. He just needs something, some flow of words to keep his mind off of the spiral of old memories he knows he’s falling into. 

Wylie shifts his chair closer to Tiergan’s. “Fine,” he says. “We spent the week learning basic first aid. Nothing I don’t already know.”

Both of their gazes are trained on Prentice’s sleeping form in front of them. Tiergan knows what Wylie is thinking, even without having to read his mind: If only they could teach me how to heal him. 

If only. 

“I’m proud of you,” Tiergan says, voice soft. “I know that Prentice would be, too.”

Wylie looks up at him, eyes wide. “You think?” he asks, his voice cracking. 

Tiergan reaches over and rests a hand on Wylie’s arm. It’s relieving, honestly, to feel warm skin beneath his fingertips, after weeks of only the cold half-death of Prentice’s hands. 

Sometimes Tiergan dreams of Wylie, lying beside his father, his eyes closed and his mind equally broken. He dreams of failing everyone that he’s ever loved, of broken promises and endless fear clawing away at his mental defenses. 

There’s a reason that Tiergan never wanted Wylie to join the Black Swan. He could never bear to think about what would happen if Wylie were hurt—or worse, if he followed the path of his father. If he were loyal, as Prentice was, to the point of losing his sanity. 

Tiergan would never be able to forgive himself if Wylie’s mind broke. 

(In the end, though, what were those attempts at protection worth? Wylie was still taken; he was still forced to feel pain beyond a level that most elves could even dream of.)

“I’m sorry,” Tiergan says, and he knows it’s been too long of a silence. 

Wylie frowns. “Is that for me or for him?” He gestures to Prentice’s sleeping form. 

“For…both, I suppose.” Tiergan says, contemplating. 

Wylie only hums in agreement, resting a cool hand upon Tiergan’s clammy wrist. 

“I meant it, by the way,” Tiergan adds, after a moment of heavy silence. “Prentice would be proud of you. So would Cyrah.” He pauses, the weight of his words holding his tongue down. “You’re a better man than any of us ever were, Wylie.”

“You really don’t give yourself a lot of credit.”

“I give myself what I deserve.” And he doesn’t deserve much, really—after all, isn’t it his fault that Prentice is in this state? Wasn’t it for him that Prentice joined the cause, in an effort to make this world a better place for the two of them?

He reaches out to take Prentice’s cold hand once again, quietly sighing with relief at the thin layer of sweat that coats his lover’s fingers. Any sign of life, now, is worth the world to him. 

Sometimes Tiergan can’t breathe until he is sure that his lover’s heart still beats, until he feels the heat of skin beneath his own hands. 

“You know, I don’t remember much,” Wylie says, after a long moment. “From…before.”

Tiergan thinks back to the chaos of the end, how the three of them had shut themselves off from the world and each other, scrambling to keep their own heads above water. And as much as Cyrah had begged him and Prentice to keep the issues of the Black Swan far, far away from their son, they’d never quite succeeded. It had been his and Prentice’s rash decisions that left Wylie with only a third of the family he’d once had, but it had been Wylie who had to face their consequences. “Maybe that’s for the best,” he tells Wylie, and he almost believes his own words. “We didn’t exactly make the best decisions back then. Cyrah and I were always too consumed by our work to be responsible. And Prentice…” Tiergan squeezes his lover’s fingers, lightly. “Well. He’s always been reckless.”

“I don’t know. I think you did the best you could,” Wylie replies, quietly. “All of you. I know I spent a long time feeling bitter, as a teenager. But I guess, with time, I’ve come to realize that I would make the same choices, in Dad’s situation.”

“You two are very similar people,” Tiergan admits, with a soft sigh. “Though that’s what scares me. I never wanted you to be involved in any of this, Wylie. I never wanted you to know pain like you have.”

“I made my own choices,” Wylie replies. “So did Dad. You can’t take that weight on your shoulders. It’s not like you made Dad join the Black Swan, or forced the Neverseen to come after me.”

“I know,” Tiergan says, though he doesn’t. He pauses, for a moment, then finally says, “But, Wylie…I’m not as innocent in Prentice’s break as you think I am.”

“Unless you were the one that broke him—and I know that you weren’t—then I don’t see how that matters.”

“People can be reckless when they’re in love,” is all Tiergan replies, and he waits for the dots to connect in Wylie’s mind. It takes a moment, and then Wylie’s eyes widen, and his gaze shifts rapidly between the two of them as the pieces begin to click. 

Tiergan sucks in a breath. He’s been meaning to have several important conversations with Wylie, since Prentice was released, but he’s never quite found the courage. 

(There are a lot of things that Wylie doesn’t know about his family. Mostly things that aren’t Tiergan’s to tell. But this one is, and it’s hardly a secret for most people, so he might as well start here.)

“That…makes a lot of sense, actually,” Wylie says, after a long moment. “Still doesn’t explain why you think it’s your fault, though.”

“Nothing is as black and white as it seems.”

Wylie scoffs. “You sound like Forkle.”

In truth, Leto has spent years trying to convince Tiergan of the same thing, to no avail—after the break, it had really only been him and Cyrah that kept Tiergan sane, with Leto constantly begging him to let his guilt go. 

I don’t know what I would do if both of you were broken, Leto had told him at the planting. If the break were anyone’s fault, it would be mine. Please, Tiergan, don’t let yourself become a shell of guilt. 

But even twelve years later, Tiergan has yet to fully let it go. Somehow, seeing his lover up close only aggravates all of his long-buried feelings of anger—at himself, at everyone. (Not Wylie, though. Never Wylie. He doesn’t deserve that.)

“Guilt is a tricky thing,” Tiergan says, after a moment. “Once it starts to fester, you can’t really remove it.”

“But you have to try,” Wylie says. “Please, Dad, you have to try. Even if Sophie could heal you…how am I supposed to deal with that? With two broken fathers?”

“My mind won’t break,” Tiergan says, though he isn’t quite sure himself. “I promise, Wy. I won’t let it get that bad.” 

Wylie wipes away a small tear, and Tiergan finds himself staring at his sleeping lover once more. I wish you could hear us, love. I wish you knew how much we miss you.

And somehow, in a movement so small Tiergan wonders if he imagined it, Prentice’s lips curl up into a fond smile. I love you, it says, or so Tiergan hopes it does. 

Tiergan reaches over and squeezes Wylie’s trembling hand. I love you, too.

tiergan’s not mad, just confused, and slightly disappointed

[colossalsummer]

Saw some people wondering what Tiergan and Grady would look like with facial hair

[bookwyrminspiration]

One time in third grade we went on a field trip to a farm to see some cows, and we drove for about an hour, right? Then we find out that. they took us. to the wrong fucking farm. So it was like another half hour of the bus driver disgruntledly (is that a word?) going back the way we had come because apparently we just straight up drove past it the first time

oho this is excellent more field trip disaster stories!! I don't think I ever had a field trip to a farm but my mom's side of the family are like all farmers and so growing up we'd visit the farm from time to time until we moved cross country when I was five. My point being haha farms I know about those!!

I think this is like one of my top fears when it comes to field trips; things not going how they're supposed to. Field trips are already a huge deviation from the typical plan I have for the day and I am barely clinging to my composure based on the itinerary outlined by the teachers before we leave...and then to get off schedule?? how am I supposed to know anything that is happening now!!

it's gotta be super annoying though having to make what sounds like it was supposed to be only a 30 minute trip taking actually 1 hour and a half...like please just wanna see the farm. I would say "how do you mess up that bad?" but also in my experience farm roads can be very easy to miss. Like yes there is are few of them but also it's lawless /j. It's not like being in a city where you can get anywhere from everywhere and there are 17 different paths to take. You turn on this one old road that's marked with one sign and then turn on another one that's also only got one sign. and everything is so far apart from each other.

My mom actually did exactly that when we went to visit the farm back in december. There's this one way you've gotta turn and it was getting dark and we hadn't visited in years so she straight up went past the turn and we started getting to the next small town and she was just like wait a minute. this isn't right. added like 15-20 minutes to the trip which isn't a lot but also when you've been driving for two days straight it's a lot.

I hope you had fun at the farm!! I do not know what kind of farm you went to but my grandparents/uncles own a dairy farm (which is apparently now worth several million dollars so good for them) so I always think cows. I've never helped with the actual adult cows (I've seen them though!! loud), but I got to feed the calves a lot. They are...so messy. Like just drink the thing my guy. just. it's conveniently in a bottle with a tip shaped with a cow nipple how hard it is my guy.

other farm related memories: climbing the silos and standing on top of them to look at everything (I have a few pictures at the top), riding in tractors with my uncle through the alfalfa fields to see those big piles that have tires on top to weight them down but I don't remember what's under them, riding in the gator with my grandpa around the farm, driving the lawnmower, the swings at the top of hill right next to the cornfield, ringing the huge bell at the top of the hill that's like half the size of me, picking up all the pins off the floor of grandma's sewing room while she taught me how to use the machines, the popsicle fridge in the basement, feeding all the barn kitties milk and petting the few that would let you. also the smell, it was always stinky outside because of the pond where all the manure is stored, but you got used to it after a few hours.

#fitz moving to solreef wasn't something i ever thought i'd go 'HELL YEAH SO TRUE' at

It almost happened and I'm so mad it didn't

you're so right for this. we deserved fitz becoming one of the alenefars. and it would've let us explore tam and linh and tiergan and wylie and maybe even prentice more!! and people that they're connected to like cyrah!!

and it would've let fitz be in an environment where he could unlearn his perfectionism and such!! and tiergan knows exactly how it feels to have problems with staying in control of his anger and being mad at the world, so it'd be a really cool bond to have and explore with mutual benefits - fitz learning to be ok with not being perfect and learning how to not lash out as much from someone who gets it, and tiergan unlearning some of his negative associations with the vackers and stuff that he still has. fitz canonically looks like alden, and there's a lot of hints that've been dropped to suggest (if it's not explicitly canon) that fitz has been molded over the years to strive to be like his dad. seeing tiergan address past issues more in depth than we see in the books through fitz and letting fitz learn the other side of the story and- yeah. yeah.

all in all, super cool character arc opportunities were missed >:(((

do you ever just think about tiergan alenefar and start crying because same
