Namaari: that’s not funny

Raya: well I thought it was funny

Namaari, glaring: you don’t count. You started laughing in the middle of a funeral because you remembered the time I tripped into a pile of mud

#that's not fair #anyone would have laughed with that memory #lmao namaari

What if Raya kinda refuses to become Heart 's ruler because 1) she didnt really want it when she was a kid, she was just in for the dragon stuff lol and 2) she spent so long on her own, she just can't do the whole ruling a whole kingdom thing. Benja accepts this as a way to make up for all those years.

Here's the thing tho, Namaari does want to rule Fang because she wants to do better, and she tells Raya this, but she doesn't push Raya or anything.

At some point, Raya starts realizing how Namaari is actually making improvements in Fang, so she starts to get more involved in Heart's deals.

That is how she decides she wants to team up with Namaari. Here's the catch tho...she proposes they join their lands through marriage, but they aren't actually dating 😏 so we get the whole arranged marriage, which was proposed by Raya herself but the denial is still at its peak.

Namaari: did it hurt?

Raya: did what hurt?

Namaari: when you broke through the Earth’s crust and ascended from hell

Raya: nah, I scraped my knee a bit though

Benja, watching from a distance: are they……are they flirting?

Virana, squinting her eyes: I think so? And now they’re kissing. Great.

Raya and the Curse of Kumandra Chapter 2: The Blame Game

ao3

masterpost 

Excerpt:

In the months following Kumandra’s reformation, Raya learned quickly just how difficult it was to maintain peace. It was so bad that she was beginning to believe that fighting was easier, because fighting didn’t require every participating body to cooperate and reach necessary compromises. There were just winners and losers.

But even though it was far easier to be selfish and return to their old ways, Raya knew the outcome was far worse than a peaceful one.

As the future chief of Heart, she hated politics. Absolutely despised them with her entire being.

My whole life, I trained to become a guardian of the Dragon Gem. But this world has changed, and its people are divided. Now to restore peace, I must find the Last Dragon. My name is Raya.

Namaari feeling so guilty about the whole thing that happened, would probably spend the most time at Heart helping rebuilding and fixing as much as she can.

But then she would also feel guilty for abandoning her own people, and well she would just go on a guilt trip for a while.

And what i want is for Benja to offer some consolation, because even if he knows Namaari has to forgive herself, he is also aware that he can help her in some way.

maybe it’s bc the idea of raya being evil is ✨exciting✨ but I can’t stop thinking about an au where fang betrays heart and the druun return and all that but instead of running away, raya stays in heart after her father (and countless others) are turned to stone and becomes the chief. like maybe the bridge gets destroyed in all the chaos that ensues and the remaining people of heart are trapped on the island, but they’re protected from the druun now (obviously haven’t thought of the logistics), kinda like fang with their artificial canal. benja is still turned to stone, leaving a 12 year old raya devastated and suddenly in charge of an entire land, plus the aftermath of the druun. 

because of the weight on her shoulders at so young an age, she goes from this energetic and slightly chaotic child to a hardened, bitter young chief seeking revenge. she goes against everything her father taught her, and heart goes from a lavish and bountiful land to near-ruin and collapse to a formidable land that you don’t want to mess with. in an effort to destroy the druun and make sure no one else gets hurt bc of her mistake of trusting a stranger, she makes heart everyone’s feared enemy and develops a reputation of being the most fearsome and successful chief heart’s ever had, which is even more impressive considering her young age. she’s fiercely protective over her people and adores them but is also strict with them. no one is to leave without first getting her permission, no one is to enter without her knowledge and consent, she enforces a curfew, things like that. overall she takes care of them and treats them well, so they’re loyal to her. her cruelty only extends to the other lands and anyone who wrongs her. 

heart manages to recover from the druun and become even more prosperous than before the druun came. the other lands, while scared of heart, of course want a piece of this, but raya refuses most trade agreements unless absolutely necessary. fang’s the only land who never tries to trade with heart, and for good reason. raya’s never tried anything against them, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be cautious and stay clear of heart’s territory. heart has a huge army and weaponry, both made larger and more powerful with Raya’s efforts—no one wants to mess with her. 

but eventually, fang needs something that only heart can offer. think of how they struggle just in the movie with land. there are no doubt countless other things they’re struggling with. they have no choice but to reach out to heart for aid when raya’s around 18-20, prompting her to pay them a visit—a visit that includes not just her but her advisors, attendants, and some of her finest soldiers. she wants to make it known from the moment they cross into fang territory that she has the upper hand here, and she won’t hesitate to strike them down. it’s a blatant power move and chief virana knows it, but she welcomes raya to stay as long as she likes nonetheless.

raya’s also worried out of her mind because she hasn’t seen namaari since that fateful day, and she doesn’t want to be perceived as some weak chief. she blames herself for.trusting namaari and doesn’t want namaari to think she’s the same naive little girl she used to be. namaari is also nervous for this meeting for obvious reasons—she holds a shit ton of guilt for what she did to raya, not to mention that she’s harbored a crush for her ever since they first met (another thing she’s guilty for bc it’s wrong to have feelings for the person you betrayed). 

anyway I have a lot of thoughts on this lmao, like virana and namaari being surprised at this new chief, bc despite the reputation, both still picture her as the girl they tricked; raya being very callous and cold while virana and namaari try to negotiate with her, then namaari later seeing raya’s guard fall (evidence of her crying, being warm and generous with her attendants, smiling while with tuk tuk, etc) and realizing that the real raya is still in there; namaari trying to make things right between them and raya rejecting her over and over again bc she believes it to be another trick—until she realizes it isn’t when namaari suggests they work together to bring back Sisu so she can fix the dragon gem…etc👀
