Summary:
When 51 is called to a warehouse collapse, Sylvie is called in to assist Severide with an injured patient. However, the unstable construction equipment snaps and traps the two and their patient inside the building while the rest of 51 work tirelessly to get them out. Conversations years in the making will be had and a shocking surprise will be revealed.
(Basically Sylvie and Severide talking about their trauma over the years and being the besties I want them to be with a dose of worried Stella and Matt)
good morning. welcome to Wammy’s House. if you look out the back window at just the right moment, you’ll be able to see Beyond Birthday scattering half smoked cigarettes around the patio, like mixed seeds for pigeons, for Matt to feast upon when he wakes up
Yeaah, they were human, and might've been the first vigilantes before the JL formed. Might've gotten caught by some mad scientist cultists. Might've gotten gene spliced a bit, but shhh. Don't worry about it :) They're fine. Absolutely Fine. This is Fine.
But anyway, they have wings now. And talons. And a lot of other things they have to adjust to and might straight up not have a civilian identity for a while- becomes more than a bit of social recluses while they figure this shit out.
So anyway, I haven't finished drawing or designing them, if I ever will, so have what each is based off of. There's a lot of robins. :) Also have how old everyone is at the start of the story. (Timelines are a fake thing that never make sense)
We need a sequel for domesticity. To see them handling things like daily menial task, afternoons cleaning the house small 'arguments' over who's turn it is to do laundry to evenings with a bottle of wine in the kitchen cooking dinner. David loving Alex and Alex spoiling him with doggie treats that Henry doesn't approve of.
To show how difficult life changing decisions like renouncing the crown can be and Henry finding his new path. To show a gay couple thriving when they had so many obstacles stacked against them. To show Alex a man of mixed race, a POC becoming a Lawyer. To show Henry running an organization along side his best mate.
So we can see our LGBTQ+ boys being the Kings we already know they are!
So we can see Henry making quiche!
I promise the story makes sense for a sequel! As Alex would say, we can make this work, together!
I need to know about the details of how mirrorhawks are hunted given they seem to be a pretty major product in terms of viable sources of protein in the Un and even the Company soldiers in the entourage seem to consider them with apprehension. How dangerous of a profession is this. What is the extent of the market for mirrorhawk in the Highest Light. Are there differences between the mirrorhawks hunted from the upper Un compared to those near the Mediun. Are some considered more of a delicacy versus bottom shelf products. Can you order mirrorhawks on the half-shell or does the mica's antigravity or general sharpness get in the way. Does it have to be processed specially to remove any mica from the flesh. Are there frequent product recalls because mica was found in canned mirrorhawk. Are there concerns about ecological sustainability. What is the current health of the overall mirrorhawk population in the cosmos.
It shouldn't need to be said but I'm seeing a lot of vitriol towards Ashton about their actions and I have to say I don't agree with them.
At the clock tower Fearne brought up the shard, stated that in her opinion Ashton should take the shard because she didn't want it. Ashton decided then as a result they'd take it, but because it was an extreme risk made very aware to them all they knew the other Hells wouldn't allow them to go through with it. Ashton asked Fearne if she was okay with both of them going together alone with the plan, reiterating that they didn't want to put this on Fearne, that if they died Fearne would not be to blame, and that they have no intention of dying, and Fearne said yes.
Fearne having second thoughts at the Ziggurat was just worry, because she cares deeply for Ashton, Ashton kissing her was not manipulation either; it was letting go of fear, having no regret with the person they also care deeply for and taking the risk. And yeah, it was frightening, 10 rounds of perpetual fiery near-death situations and one actual death situation; Laura is fuming, Ashley cannot look, Liam is playing Mad World on loop in his mind, even Matt is completely on edge, but they survived. Accusations that Ashton manipulated Fearne to selfishly take the shard seem to misinterpret the shard saga as well as Fearne and Ashton's characters, they will get a very intense amount of chastising for sure, but it will be out of love, out of the fear that they were going to lose them, not because they thought Ash was manipulative.
