ok. last post screaming about splatoon. probably
im pointing out totally useless background details so i dont blame u if u ignore this
Tumblr media
spyke has a coffee percolator, card reader, and what im assuming is a smartphone? weird to see one that isnt squid shaped tho.. anyway, this might just be aesthetic, or maybe he'll sell food/drinks like the staff in splatsville's lobby does
Tumblr media
the fox and tanuki statues' clothes are now yellow and blue/purple like splatoon 3's color scheme, as opposed to the original blue and orange
Tumblr media
the videos playing on this screen are the same as in splatsville. i would know, ive sat down and watched them like baby sensory videos. that being said, there might be some unique ones that simply didnt appear in the trailer, or these could be a placeholder
Tumblr media
the old squid squad and squid sisters billboards have been updated to advertise front roe and the squid sisters' wave goodbye
Tumblr media
this poster shows up in a few places around the plaza, and its hard to see in this shot, but can be seen more clearly later on as being a C-side poster
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🎉CULTURAL APPROPRIATION HAT IS GONE🎉
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
some details from annie's shop :3
Tumblr media
SHELDON WITH SHELLY AND DONNY!!!
Tumblr media
this sign looks like it says クま 彡木 which isn't mr. grizz's japanese name (that would be クマサン, kuma-san), but i think its still saying his name, just in a mix of katakana and hiragana. ク(ku) is katakana,ま(ma) is hiragana, and from what i can gather 彡 is equivalent to writing サン(san), and 木 means wood. i... think. i dont know japanese and im not a translator so take literally all of that with a grain of salt
Tumblr media
full disclosure i never wouldve noticed this if not for prochara's most recent video, but this inkling looks to be wearing the corocoro hoodie from splatoon 1!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the sign next to the battle dojo/shoal (and above the entrance to spyke's alley) shows a drink, which to me is further support for the idea that he might sell drinks
Tumblr media
with there only being 2 statues, 2 idols, and 2 stages, inkopolis tower is colored to represent the third team in a splatfest
Tumblr media
i pointed this out before already in another post, but the manhole where you would enter the singleplayer campaign in splatoon 1 has been covered
thats basically all i have because theres not really any small details in the side order part of the trailer i havent already covered so. ya

ds9 s7 ranking.. FINAL ONE ☹️
sisko
jake
jadzia
worf
nog
quark
obrien
rom
bashir
garak
kira
odo
mom sigh. s6 was a mixed bag MOSTLY POSITIVE. but there were a few really bad ones man..
something overcame me where i realized i’m actually clinically insane for the siskos this happened like overnight. the jake staying on ds9 arc AND far beyond the stars AND in the pale moonlight AND the reckoning and the valiant 😐 both of them shone so much in their own right in s6 but it also reallyyyy showed the connection between them. man at the sisko jake hug in the finale i was like… gonna cry 😢 jake still has this idealism about the war and how GREAT it is to get REAL EXPERIENCE and sisko knows exactly the opposite and is carrying so much on his shoulders. but still cares so much for his son and always tries… god. god. the pan wraith thing was a weak episode in its own right but the jake sisko bit was insanelyyy good.
jadzia. and worf . i will. make another post on this.
NOG. he didn’t have many important roles this season- obviosuly cuz he’s like, a side character- but what we had was sooo good. the garak nog interaction in rocks and shoals was SO INTERESTING. and not to mention the valiant 😐 i think there’s a lot to make fun of nog like awww he’s so gung ho he loves starfleet! but valiant showers actually how far he would go for that and how much he wants to fit in and succeed.
MAGNIFICENT FERENGI MOST CAMP EPISODE EVER. probably one of my faves EVER. the rom quark AND nog bits. actually quark was also really good the whole season congrats on getting boobs.
o’brien… he was pretty good he’s never been my personal fave. but the monologue he had with that dying woman on the planet about how heavy the war was and how he couldn’t even speak to his friends he was choosing to speak to a random woman… god.
bashir did not do much this season. sorry girl. i liked the beginning when he was grumpy af.
garak i have nothing to say about.
kira and odo….. they’re actually so emabrassing. wrongs darker than death or night was a PHENOMENAL episode i will give kira that. the odo “awwww how do i ask kira out?” episode was the weakest of the season.
well. i got through red squad . i got through jadzia. i can make it through nog ☹️

White Lotus got up to fight with 28 soldiers . The three from the avatar team went to the ships when they saw how the equalizers swam to the 2 extreme ships. The trio split up . Tenzin and some of the police went to the first ship , Mako and Bumi to the second . The magicians manage to repel the attack of the equalizers on the ships. The ships are in a fairly battered condition, but they managed to get off the shoal a little. Water magicians are actively engaged in this . Korra is glad that all her friends are fine. Airo, when examining the ships, says that the ships that were in the center suffered externally, after the magic of a stranger, several people from the team suffer from nausea and pain throughout the body, but most of them are all intact. The commanders of the two extreme ships say that the equalizers have dismantled all the electronics on the ships. The caught equalizers say nothing, they are being interrogated now. Returning to the shore , Korra and Mako see Asami and Bolin running towards them . Everyone is very happy to see them. Two nice faces in all that time. Mako is insanely glad to see Bolin alive and cheerful. Korra is also glad that the team is back together. But their joy turns to apprehension when Korra and Mako see their frightened faces. Bumi asks what happened? And he adds that you look like animals were chasing you for a couple of kilometers. Bolin and Asami looked at each other and said that Bumi had almost guessed right. Bolin and Asami ask if Tenzin has a plan on how to deal with this. Tenzin asks with what? Bolin looked at him with an uncomprehending expression for a couple of seconds and replied: "With what is happening in the city." Massive destruction began in the city .The people rose up against the authorities . The Council with its war with a stranger did not work at all for the benefit of the people, when the stranger gave people food, clothes, medicines and healers. Giving out everything from which he was not giving out so much in the city at the moment and thereby strengthened his position in society, along the way his assistants told people the stranger's opinion about the council and the authorities in general. Since the stranger was the only one who cared about ordinary people, they went after his ideas. And a new overthrow of the government has begun, the police are trying to calm them down , but also mass attacks by equalizers have begun, which are directed at the police and the council. Cape Asami had a hard time getting to you . Tenzin suggests a plan of action. Tenzin asks Bumi to stay on the island of air and look after their family. He agrees. Asami goes with Tenzin to Lin's police station. Find out how things are going and inform the remaining ships that could not sail to send magicians to help in the city . Bolin , though weak , can make stone walls and underground tunnels . With him, there are more chances to pass unnoticed. Korra, Mako and the remaining policemen eliminate the equalizers, calm down and protect the citizens. Bolin is against such an idea . He says that you can't let them go alone, take the white lotus, me. I won't let my brother go into that nightmare. Mako tells Bolin not to talk nonsense. Mako has Korra, and she has him. Bolin says he's against it anyway. Also confirms the words of his brother that he always took care of him. Now it's his turn. Korra assures Bolin that everything will be fine with them, if he and Mako were able to defeat Amon in two, then we can easily cope with a handful of his sixes. Tenzin says they don't have time to argue and have to go. Everyone wishes each other good luck and goes to save the city. Tenzin's squad carefully gets through the fighting to the police building. At the moment , the equalizers and the red lotus ( the stranger's soldiers) are storming the building , Tenzin and Bolin are giving them a fight . Tenzin actively fights, defends himself and partially Bolin, who fights weaker with a wound and becomes easy prey. B
ut even with a wound, Bolin does not allow himself to be pinched and with difficulty, but fights back. At this time, Asami sneaks into the building and learns from Lin Beifong that all police units have been attacked. There are not enough people for defense. The council assumed that most of the equalizers had fled the city, only a small part had left. The rest were probably hiding in the city at some factory or
the warehouse of one of his supporters. So many people can 't hide in their apartments . Asami has an idea to get his father out of prison for a while and show what happened to the city. What his stubbornness led to. She asks Lin for a company car and buys a couple of minutes. Beifong agrees . Metallomages manage to buy time for Asami 's care . .Bolin jumps into her car . When Asami asks what Bolin has decided , he replies that if she is going somewhere , he will help . Asami says you can with your injury. He replies that he can destroy the road behind us so that they won't catch up with us. Asami agrees and they go to Hiroshi. Tenzin stayed with the police to protect civilians. The friends get to the prison and find the scene of Osami's father looking at the city through the window of his cell. Asami says that apparently you don't need to be dragged outside to see the city. Hiroshi replies that people seeking justice did not notice the city burning in flames . People are so tired of inequality that they are ready to do anything for change, but when the flame goes out and if they achieve this, they will understand that their idea has burned, then what should this idea serve for? What do you think Asami? She answers, here, that they did not come to reason about the correctness of their actions, they came. I know what you came for, Hiroshi interrupted. The list of names is on the table. They cautiously took the paper and made sure that this was indeed the case. When Bolin asked why Hiroshi decided to help them . He replied: "At the time of my wife's death, my family was wounded, and I killed." Asami's tears involuntarily flowed, she felt pity mixed with disgust for this man. Bolin lowered his eyes to the nis, so as not to look at this picture. Hiroshi told them to hurry, the person who arranged it must be stopped. Before leaving , Hiroshi asked his daughter if there would be a day when she would forgive him . Asami, having stopped crying, replies that he will not be here today and will not be there tomorrow. Hiroshi will remain at one with himself and the thought of what he has done.
Korra and Mako stop fighting on the street the first couple of fights turned out to be successfully stopped . But when the police are busy helping people, Korra and Mako stand at high points in order to direct the police through them. At the moment of such editing, they are attacked on the roof by a stranger, who mostly moved along the roofs when he killed the victims. The stranger instantly warms Mako's blood with magic, he started yelling about the pain Korra ran to help him, but the stranger began to violently attack Korra. In the battle of Korra 's stranger and Mako , the stranger hardly gives battle to the avatar . She shows a huge strength that a stranger can't cope with. Therefore, at the moment of the battle, he remembers that another overthrow of power is taking place ( the people take power from the council by force) and he decides to strike with his magic (he can heat oxygen molecules in certain places in waves) at buildings and bring down everything in houses that can burn so that the debris falls on people. To prevent anyone from dying, Korra holds the falling stones while people leave. At the moment, the stranger heats up the blood in her veins by a couple of degrees (he demonstrates this more than once and also describes the sensations at the same time. Veins begin to bulge, spasms, headaches occur, everything goes in the eyes and loss of consciousness (if you delay it a little, then death). Korra loses consciousness. Mako, who was fighting with him all the time, is simply not standing on his feet anymore. The last thing he does is attack a stranger in the back who is walking towards Korra. The stranger's hood lights up and he throws it off and Mako thanks to the fact that he saw the stranger's face and the fact that the external scene is similar to the scene 10 years ago, he realizes that the stranger killed his two parents in front of him. This is the one who wounded Bolin, that he almost remained a knee , the one who wants to kill Korra, the one because of whom he and his brother were starving on the street, the one who brought his first nightmare to Mako . He sees a stranger. He sees a nightmare come out of a dream. A stranger approaches Korra to conduct a discharge on her body that will kill her. The stranger swung and without expecting it falls to his knees. His whole body was in pain. He barely turns around and sees Mako standing there and paralyzing him with the same magic as a stranger. Mako's nose is bleeding and he faints. The stranger understands because of this incident that Mako is his child and since after the blow the stranger's blood has thickened and he takes his bastard to disguise fresh blood. At the moment of preparation for transfusion, Mako and a stranger have a conversation that, oddly enough, the stranger started. He asked if he was the son of the fire girl . Mako confirmed it . The stranger decided to clarify whether he understood who he was and what connects them. Mako shouts at him and calls him a monster, he deprived him of everything in early childhood and is now trying to do it. Why a stranger likes to look at the suffering of others. The stranger is silent and continues to work . After a long silence, the stranger says that he is not a sadist, he just has a goal and he will do anything for her. Mako hysterically asks why he did it? Why did he kill his father and mother, leaving him and his brother orphans. Mako used to think as a child that it was because a stranger wanted to rob them , but now he realizes that the stranger is not the person who needs money.Mako is already screaming at him in hysterics. The stranger replies that he did not want to kill his mother , only Bolin 's father , your mother got between us and I hit her and killed them both . That's why you killed my father. I was given an order and I carried it out . Bolin 's father partially influenced the weakening of my order . The stranger also says that if he could go back in time, he would do everything to keep her
alive. In the life of a stranger, the fire girl was the only person who cared about him, and he subsequently did everything for her. Everything for the one I loved. Mako is shocked by what he heard. Mako says he's lying, if she was dear to him, he would never have done that. The stranger says that on that day the thought that the girl of fire left him
Korra and Mako stop fighting on the street the first couple of fights turned out to be successfully stopped . But when the police are busy helping people, Korra and Mako stand at high points in order to guide the police through the smoke (the city roads were still visible from above). At the moment of such editing, they are attacked on the roof by a stranger, who mostly moved along the roofs when he killed the victims. The stranger instantly warms Mako's blood with magic, he started screaming about the pain Korra ran to help him, but the stranger began to violently attack Korra. In the battle of the stranger, Korra and Mako, the stranger hardly gives battle to the avatar. She shows great strength . The stranger loses. Therefore, at the moment of the battle, he remembers that another overthrow of power is taking place (the people take power from the council by force) and he decides to strike with his magic (he can heat oxygen molecules in certain places in waves) at buildings and bring down everything in houses that can burn so that the debris falls on people.

Mako, who has been fighting with him all the time, is simply not on his feet anymore. The last thing he does is attack a stranger in the back who is walking towards Korra. The stranger's hood lights up and he throws it off and Mako thanks to the fact that he saw the stranger's face and the fact that the external scene is similar to the scene 10 years ago, he realizes that the stranger is the one who killed his two parents in front of him many years ago. This is the one who wounded Bolin, that he almost remained koleka , the one who wants to kill Korra, the one because of whom he and his brother were starving on the street, the one who brought his first nightmare to Mako . He sees a stranger. He sees a nightmare come out of a dream. A stranger approaches Korra to conduct a discharge on her body that will kill her.

The stranger decided to clarify whether he understood who he was and what connects them. Mako calls him a monster, he deprived him of everything in early childhood and is now trying to do it. Why does a stranger like to look at the suffering of others asks Mako. The stranger is silent and continues to work .The stranger ponders Mako 's words along with his work . In the process, he recalls a story in which he thought there was an answer to his question. When the stranger worked for the order for only a couple of years, the fire girl actively helped him promote the philosophy of the red lotus (although she did not quite agree with her) . She was handing out campaign leaflets.After a while, she met small sixes who worked like her (there was also the brothers' father, who was hired by a stranger, because he literally had nothing to eat in the city) . From her, the stranger learned that many small workers had heard about the stranger and were partly afraid of him. Everyone called him the dog of the order because he carried out any
orders of the order without hesitation. Of course, all high-ranking confidants had this trait of character, but he was too successful in this. The bravest (or the stupidest) said that a stranger could do nothing without an order and subsequent praise. Therefore, he is the only one who still does small work. Although at that time he was already a significant person in the order.
When the fire girl asked him why you wouldn't take helpers and just direct them. He says he'd rather do everything himself than trust someone else with the job. At first , it seemed logical to the fire girl . Until she found out that the stranger, in addition to his tasks, also asks for tasks from other members of the order, and with all this, he asks, in addition to important tasks, something very small that messengers are sent to, and not members of the order. One might think that he was just trying to work for the name, but at the same time, the name had been working for him for a long time and he simply did not need it. Once they had a conversation on this topic and when a stranger ignored the dialogue in every possible way. The fire girl could not stand it and shouted that the stranger seemed to her like a puppy who was constantly waiting for praise for the trick she had done and she added that she did not want the stranger to humiliate himself in front of them . She reminds him that he has no masters and is a free man. The stranger does not show that he is angry at the insults, says that he has never heard such a thing and leaves. From that moment, the fire girl began to think that the stranger had become so dependent on the lotus that he didn't need their life anymore. After a long silence, the stranger says that he is not a sadist, he just has a goal and he will do anything for her. Mako hysterically asks why he did it? Why did he kill his father and mother, leaving him and his brother orphans. Mako used to think as a child that it was because a stranger wanted to rob them , but now he realizes that the stranger is not the person who needs money.Mako is already screaming at him in hysterics. The stranger replies that he did not want to kill his mother , only Bolin 's father , your mother got between us and I hit her and killed them both . That's why you killed my father. I was given an order and I carried it out , Bolin 's father partially influenced the weakening of my order . The stranger also says that if he could go back in time, he would do everything to keep her alive. In the life of a stranger, the fire girl was the only person who cared about him, and he subsequently did everything for her. Everything for the one I loved. Mako is shocked by what he heard. Mako says he's lying, if she was dear to him, he would never have done that. The stranger says that on that day the thought that the girl of fire left him to the magician of the earth gave birth to a huge rage in him that darkened his eyes. The stranger says that after her death, he stopped feeling everything in this world, and with her death, he also died. The stranger answers Mako's question why he is here. Since Mako is a close relative, there should be no rejection or other problems. The stranger tells that Mako is his son and explains how he understood it. Mako says that the stranger will not succeed . The stranger with a grin asks why, the city is taken, the avatar is seriously injured, everything he planned worked. Mako replies that he failed to kill Tenzin. The stranger agrees , he hoped that he and his brother would climb the stairs , and not make an elevator moving along the wall . He says that when he heard rumors about the avatar team (it was less necessary to write in the newspapers), the stranger realized that the girl had found friends through whom she could be manipulated.The stranger explains that he hoped that he and his brother would see him and get up, that's why he ordered them to distribute help in a place where it is clearly visible. Other positions are not visible. According to his plan, he kills Tenzin and deprives the city of the main power, then he and his brother go up to the roof and he kills one of the brothers. Thanks to this , Korra will want to kill me and there will be no authority in the form of Tenzin who will influence her . She will go to the city where we will take her. But you got up faster and he didn't have time. Mako
stopped being angry, stopped shouting at him, he was horrified. The stranger says that Mako is partly right , he really can 't calculate everything , for example , when he turned the ships with magic
he did not expect the ships to crash into the next row, the idea was only to run them aground and buy time. The avatar is restored calms the rebellion. Bolin comes and asks Lin to give him police officers to search for his brother and the stranger, Lin agrees. Bolin approaches Korra , who was not herself . They have a conversation . Korra asks how his wound is? Bolin replies that it is better. He asks how she is? Korra replies that the nightmare in the city is the same as in her head at the moment. Riots, riots, equalizers, Mako were captured. Bolin confirms that the situation is terrible, but he also says that if anyone is able to restore order, it is the avatar. Bolin says that Korra showed him how difficult it is to be an avatar to look for a way out of seemingly hopeless situations. Think about protecting ordinary people and taking care of the whole world. He doesn't understand how she does it. In his case, his brother was captured and, in fear for him, he does not understand what to do next. Korra says that she also loves Mako and she is also afraid for him . Bolin says that he and Asami have a list of Amon 's people received from Hiroshi, most likely all the equalizers are in one place and since they are allies of the stranger, they and Mako are most likely there. They divide the list and each searches his part . Korra says if Bolin finds them, let him inform the lotus and take him by force. Bolin says that for a long time she is the only one who does not see him as a cripple , but a war . He thanks her. Tenzin says that seeing the power in others , she will become a wise avatar . Together with the lotus, Korra finds the warehouses where the remnants of Amon's army were hiding. Lotus tied up a couple of groups of equalizers, and the rest tried to escape, but they were literally squeezed by a crowd of townspeople. Having seen on the main square how a stranger threw a building on them, people saw a real enemy in the stranger and a friend in the avatar Korra who saved them. The equalizers were held by both magicians and non-magicians. Korra and white lotus surrounded the equalizers and bound them with ice . People have been complaining about the white lotus and the avatar. Bolin thanks to Asami finds his brother together with a stranger. Mako looks very pale. Two liters of blood were pumped out of him. Bolin stops hiding and attacks the stranger, bringing down the floor under him. Bolin begins to literally bombard the stranger with stones for his brother. Telling him never to touch his family. Bolin carries his brother to the healer . It 's night outside and the area of the city in which they are located is badly beaten by a riot from light sources there were a couple of houses nearby in which there were fires , the police extinguish them , but the light of the flame brightly illuminates the block . The thought that Bolin is carrying an exhausted brother on his back , and at night , instead of lanterns , the city is illuminated by fire torments him , but a bright ray of light from the lanterns of the temple of air gives him strength . On the road, my brother thinks about how they lived on the street as children and Mako always took care of him. Bolin humorously tells Mako, who is barely conscious, that they have now switched places. With humor , he tries to cheer up his brother , although his brother does not react to this . Bolin gets to the temple of air, Korra has already returned, and Asami has not left the island. Korra and Asami saw Bolin and were delighted, but immediately their joy turned to fear, they saw Mako on his back and both rushed to them. They called the healer and took Mako . Korra notices how all of them with Asami started crying, and Bolin was so exhausted that he could no longer stand on his feet. They took him to his room and he immediately fell asleep. Tenzin was watching Bolin . Korra was with the healers and did not leave Mako's side. Asami sat waiting to hear what the healers would say. Half an hou
r later, Korru sat down next to Asami. She couldn 't help the doctors . All three of them are too exhausted. Tenzin could still help, but fatigue still won and Bumi replaced him. After a few hours, the four rested, and also Mako came to his senses, the whole team stood around him wondering how he was feeling. The whole team is assembled. Korra, Bolin and Asami, though beaten, are sitting near Mako
Korra and Bolin sit in confusion, afraid that Mako may get worse. Even though Asami was angry about the breakup of the relationship with him, she was still worried all this time. After the brothers leave, the stranger remains littered with stones. He lies unconscious for about a few minutes, then passing out and coming to himself. It lasted about an hour until he got out from under the cameos. The stranger couldn't take it anymore. His only task is to kill the avatar and finish what he started more than 10 years ago. After hitting stones on the head , a stranger has strong memories . The brothers' mother is present in them. He remembers how they were growing up and living together, how she left him and the moment of his death. The moment his own son looked at him. Mako saw him as a monster. The stranger was burning with anger and pain at the same time. Anger that everything turned out this way. The pain that he condemned his own child to the fate of an orphan as he was . With these shifts in consciousness, he thinks what to do. He tries to contact his soldiers (he wants to take the island of air by numbers), it doesn't give anything. Then he goes to the warehouses where the equalizers were hiding and sees that the police are in the warehouse and are examining everything . The stranger understands that his people have been taken, he has no one. A red lotus contacts him after 4 hours. They inform him that this is a failure and he must return to the order to decide what will be done with him. He is also informed that he has to wait for his trial. These words the stranger took as an insult to his entire long-term service. In his head, his wife's words about seeing him like a puppy showing tricks and waiting for praise were repeating more and more often every minute. The stranger realizes that after the unsuccessful abduction of Korra in childhood, the order broke down and ceased to perform its functions. The order has become useless and the stranger decides to administer the lotus philosophy himself. He decides to disobey the order and take the island in one. A stranger sees memories with a girl of fire more and more. She keeps asking the same question .What's wrong with you and how can I help you? The stranger does not understand what is happening to him . Perhaps his conscience is trying to stop him in this way, or it's a ghost protecting his children.He hobbles and leaning on the walls of buildings goes to the temple of air. The ghost of his ex-wife constantly appears in his eyes, asking questions and asking him to stop. He has only one thought in his head at this moment. He hopes that when he is done with this , he will cut off the connection with the past and will be able to live on , stopping everything that happens to him , not realizing that his past and the actions he committed in his youth for the sake of the one he loved are the only human thing left in him . Having cut off with him, there will be nothing left of him. The stranger wants to end in addition to the avatar, he wants to end his son and his brother, if only those visions that accompany him would end. The stranger understands from the part that in this state he will not take the island , so he is ready for any outcome . In a sense , he doesn 't even mind what might happen to him . The stranger has been a stranger for too long, because he wonders what his name was before he was awarded this title. And the stranger realizes that either he does not remember it or he did not have it at all. He can't even be sure of that. He recalls that he himself understood that a stranger suited him because he did not know who he was and who he had been for the last 10 years . With logical thinking , the stranger understands that he must survive , but even though he himself does not want to admit it, he understands that the brothers deserve life more than he does.Mako is the only good thing he has created in such a long time. A beaten stranger comes and takes revenge on everyone
for a failed riot . The entire avatar team , already brutalized for all of the latter , inflicts a flurry of attacks . A stranger drunk with rage twists everyone with his magic. And when the end has almost come, Tenzin gets hit by the same kind of magic from Mako, who kills a stranger. The last layer
the stranger's va is "well done son". The healer says that this kind of magic is fatal for you. Try again and you're finished. The city is gradually recovering. Brothers again (though beaten), but together. Korra asks Mako what happened. He tells her and Bolin everything and says that he has a family, they are both. Asami Mako says that he will be forever grateful to her forever grateful for his brother. The avatar helps in the restoration of the city. People in the city came gradually to establish relations between magicians and non - magicians .Happy ending

three's a crowd | nomin
Tumblr media
synopsis. picking favorites is impossible when you like neither of them.
warning. read at your own risk. abuse, bullying, poly relationship, yandere themes, manipulation, nonconsensual touching, noncon, degradation, smut threesome oop
disclaimer. i do not condone whatever tf i wrote in this nor does it reflect my beliefs or values or morals and such. it is all pure fiction and i also dont think jaemin or jeno would act like this in real life.
note. this was meant to be a new year's gift lmao i obviously got a lil carried away 👀 anyway a late happy new year to you all! we survived 2020, let's start living in 2021, yeah? lmao if covid lets us grr mwah!
Tumblr media
the relationship you had with the two of them was a weird one, bordering on taboo, but it wasn't as if you willfully chose to be who they wanted you to be and it took jaemin's unwanted pining and jeno's intimidating demeanor for you to fall right into their arms.
it was a joint effort on their part, you couldn't've possibly stood a chance.
"this many?" the cashier asked. "are you sure?"
stepping back and studying the whole situation, you figured you only had your addiction to caffeine and procrastination to blame. it was a chain reaction you didn't even know will lead up to your inevitable doom.
if you hadn't been slacking off during your first semester of junior year college, you wouldn't be forced to overwork yourself trying to catch up to the looming deadlines, but to be able to 'work yourself to the bone' you need your boost of energy… and that was when you met one of them.
"uhm," you scratch the back of your head sheepishly as you eye the six glass bottles of iced coffee. sure, it looks bad and you kinda appreciate the look of concern the cashier throws your way but it was none of his business.
"yes. now could you, like, you know… hurry up? i'm in a little bit of a time crunch right now."
screw it. although you hardly snap like that with other people on a daily basis, it'll be a whole different conversation if you were under a significant amount of stress and today, unfortunately, is one of those days.
now can he just fucking stop asking questions and give you your six bottles of death drink to keep your fucking brain going so you can pass an eight-page essay tomorrow? thank you very much!
the guy snickered, the beeping sound of a barcode being read sounding a thousand times more annoying than it usually sounds as he keeps his hand busy by punching your items out.
you fail to notice how he studies you through the gaps of his lashes, finding you interesting rather than threatening as you stood before him with your messy hair and oversized hoodie.
"haven't seen you around university grounds 'till today," he tries striking another conversation with you. "you new? i'm jaemin."
this was your first mistake, you shouldn't have been so… downright rude when you met him. if you were granted the miracle of meeting him a 2nd time, you would've acted more nice, throwing yourself at his feet even to blend in with the rest of his fangirls you didn't even know about at the time. you would've done anything to make sure he never gives you a second glance, to never pique his interest.
jaemin is the pep squad captain. flying over colored blue mats and doing tumblings in the air with no ounce of fear. he was the best in his team, that much was evident when your friend dragged you into watching a pep rally practice. his landings were clean, balanced, and executed to the best he can at all times.
no wonder he was popular, his talent is outstanding and his looks are a bonus. his killer combo of a smile and wink after pulling off a tough flip is enough to send them squealing in their seats.
he spotted you that day and since then, he snuck the quickest glances at the bench during practices. recognizing you as the coffee girl he met during his convenience store shift. jaemin tries not to let his disappointment show too much when he doesn't see you, but of course, a pair of cold calculating eyes could see right through him.
"i saw that," his boyfriend said, hand darting forward to hold jaemin's gym bag for him. "you kept looking at the crowd. do you want to see her that much?"
"but she reminds me so much of you, jeno!" he retorts, pouting at the slight grumpy tone the other boy used. "i can't help it. she doesn't seem to give a fuck around me so she's quite interesting. maybe she can even be a great addition to our relationship!"
"well," jeno replies after a beat of silence, plastering a small smirk on his face before slinging an arm around jaemin's shoulder.
"convince me?"
Tumblr media
you don't like jaemin's attention. not in the slightest. and it seems that was enough reason for the reign of terror his little fanclub has subjected you too.
it wasn't the petty elementary forms of bullying like pulling at your hair or calling you names. they pale in comparison to the other things they do to you—beating you up, messing with your homework, "accidentally" dumping their food trays on you.
and you weren't stupid.
you knew exactly who was behind it, knew how jaemin spectates the whole thing from afar so that he can swoop in at the end to play your knight in shining armor.
"oh, you poor thing. do you need help?"
the first time you accepted his "help" you ended up in a supply closet near the gym during your free period, cornered and weak as your cries for help drowns under the squeaking of shoes and the booming sounds of rubber balls hitting the floor.
if it weren't for jeno appearing out of thin air and prying the boy off of you, you would've been painted blue and red from the death grip he had on your wrist, neck, and waist.
you can still remember feeling the soreness of your scalp from when he pulled your hair too hard. remembered feeling his teeth gnawing at your lips as if he wanted to tear them off.
that time hadn't been the first time you saw jeno. you've shared a few classes with him and it strikes you how polar opposites they are with one another.
while jaemin likes to bask in his professor and classmates' recognition by confidently reciting his answers, jeno would rather keep to himself. liked sitting at the last row, near the window, so he'd be the first to go once the professor ends their lecture. while jaemin loved the attention of his fangirls, jeno preferred solitude. while jaemin is impulsive and wild, jeno liked to think things through.
it was within these reasons that you decided to do what you did. but your judgement of character has never been more wrong.
you approached jeno one day in the library, tried to make yourself appear as stoic and confident as possible. but your constant slouching and averting eyes was a dead giveaway.
you came to talk to him about what jaemin has been doing, hoping there's one person left in this entire school that isn't under the cheer captain's trance. the one reasonable person that has already saved you once and (hopefully) is willing enough to save you again. the only one that probably has a certain level of control over jaemin, if the supply closet incident is anything to go by.
but you've overestimated lee jeno.
"you should've just given jaemin what he wanted."
"but—but aren't you two lovers? isn't it bothering you?"
you try baiting him, only for an uncomfortable shiver to start crawling down your spine when he chuckled humorlessly, pushing his school materials to the side while pinning you with an unreadable stare.
how can a person make someone feel so small just by a gaze alone? it was nothing like you've felt with jaemin. this is way worse.
"the only thing that's bothering me is why you're not ours yet."
you feel cold fingers creeping their way under your shirt, going higher and higher until it brushes against your bra. and when your eyes meet, the look on his face was unmistakable—what are you going to do about it, huh?
you stood up in lightning speed, the chair you've been sitting on scraping loudly against the floor.
you've never ran out as fast as you did.
and jeno swears it'll be the last.
Tumblr media
you tried everything in your power to ignore them for the next following weeks but it soon became useless when the two boys took it upon themselves to give you your space.
although judging by the pinpricks you feel on your back, and the constant weight of a stare you feel on your shoulders, you knew they weren't done with you yet. far from it. and for some reason, you just knew they wanted to lull you into a false sense of security first before striking again.
and while they continued to ogle at you from afar like a hawk circling its prey in a desert, you took it upon yourself to return the favor. not because you were the slightest bit interested in those creeps but maybe, just maybe, if you look hard enough you'll find a way out, a weakness.
but what you realized made your insides churn in great discomfort—although it may seem that jeno holds the reins in the relationship since his reserved nature fits the role, it's actually the other way around.
jaemin might appear too self-centered, too focused on himself to give a fuck about his surroundings but in actuality, he has quite a knack for reading people. even more so than jeno. and it was scary how he used it to his advantage, and paired up with his devoted fangirls? it was hell on earth.
you found it alarming how the two seem to magically appear wherever you are.
although you weren't in the least bit surprised. for some reason, you can't take your eyes away when jaemin's devotees flock around him (and jeno) in a circle.
it almost reminds you of a shoal of piranhas, waiting for their meal to drop into the water before ripping it to shreds with their teeth. only their "meal" isn't actual flesh but the carefully crafted words jaemin says that drive them into a sick frenzy.
one that has them doing everything in their power to satisfy him like the loyal dogs they are.
so this was how he got them to bully you?
"oh, that? don't worry! yangyang just ran into me during cheer rehearsal. no biggie. my cheek stung a little bit, though…" is what he said but really he's telling them "scruff him up a bit for me, why don't ya?"
"of course, i can't be the best all the time. haechan is just too good, maybe even better than me…" is what he said but really he's telling them "can you remind him where his place should be?"
all the while jeno did nothing to hold him back.
no matter how wrong jaemin is, how much of an asshole he is, jeno will stick by his side through and through. so as much as jaemin is a puppeteer that gets a kick for controlling people, jeno is as much at fault for looking the other way.
because in jeno's perspective, why the fuck would he do shit when he can just get off from the entertainment that comes with jaemin's sweet little mind games?
Tumblr media
we lost :(
you had been busy sorting through paperwork for one of your professors in the faculty when your friend texted you the results of the intercollegiate cheer dance competition. a frown paints your face, heart feeling heavy at the bad news.
in all honesty, you still supported the pep squad—you just hated the captain and his boyfriend. they've been practicing non-stop for this and prior to the weeks of the competition, jeno looked a lot more tense and jaemin less smiley than usual. you swore you even saw the latter snap at one of his fangirls.
not to mention, they paid less attention to you, too, and it was the best three weeks of your life.
tension starts rising in your shoulders, fingers absentmindedly running through the edge of the papers you had been sorting until you became immersed with your thoughts.
jaemin must be in the worst mood yet.
and jeno too, probably. if anything, that guy gets triggered the most when something bad happens to jaemin or when he catches snippets of people talking shit about his oh so "perfect" boyfriend.
jeno is a lot scarier when jaemin is in one of his mood swings, you noticed. he steps up in the relationship to offer comfort to the other boy and for outsiders? it isn't a great experience to go through—being on the receiving end of jeno's ice cold stare is a position you don't want to find yourself in after that time in the library.
he is still as much a threat to your peaceful life like his lover.
you snap out of it when the blinding headlights of a vehicle seep through the closed blinds. you hear the gentle hum of an engine switching off as the headlights vanished as quick as they had appeared. that must be the cheer squad's bus.
as you look around the empty faculty room, something in your gut tells you to ditch file sorting duty for professor kim tonight and fucking get the hell out of campus grounds as quick as you can.
after haphazardly throwing the unsorted papers back into the cabinet, you groan aloud when the keys to the office drop out of your skirt’s pocket.
the indoor gym where the cheering squad practices is right across the hallway. you sure as hell don't want to bump into jaemin. or jeno, too, if he had decided to ride along the cheer squad's bus on the way home.
you kept looking for the keys underneath the cubicles, cursing aloud when you heard the telltale squeaks of shoes rubbing against linoleum. you almost hit your head against a table when you quickly got back up your feet, darting forward to shut the lights for the faculty room.
they can't know you're here. alone. and if it meant sitting in the dark for a few hours 'till they leave, meant going back home a little later than usual is what you have to do then so be it.
you try not to react so violently when the door you're leaning on jolts when someone from outside slams their back against it.
"it's not like we didn't do our best, right guys? i don't have regrets. it might sound fucking cheesy and although i'm sad myself, atleast we did what we can."
it's jaemin. his voice clear as day.
you try peaking, craning your neck up from your place on the floor. only to see the back of his head leaning against the glass section of the door. someone else joins in on the conversation, followed by coach park himself, and you slowly tune out whatever they're saying as you stealthily start scanning the faculty room.
you curse under your breath. is there no other exit other than this door? jesus christ! even classrooms in this university had two doors—
"what are you doing here?"
the switch flickers on, basking the once dark room with light. only when you hear an echo of your name being called, did you snap out of it and quickly picked yourself up from the floor.
"i said, what are you doing here?"
their coach asks, drilling the question as he looks at you skeptically with his arms crossed. you try not to look at the people behind him.
particularly, not at his cheer captain standing on his right.
particularly, not at jeno, who stands out like a sore thumb with his blue hair, a protective arm snaked around jaemin’s shoulders.
this isn't your lucky day, too, you guess.
"i was…" you cursed yourself for stuttering. "i was, uhm, i was file sorting for prof—professor kim, sir."
coach park looked like he didn't believe you as he narrowed his eyes in scrutiny. your nerves are going haywire and you can feel the sharp pins of their stare with how close they are.
you kept juggling your weight with the balls of your feet, hands fisting and unfisting behind your back. you want to leave. you have to leave.
"file sorting… in the dark?" he asked incredulously.
fuck this.
"uhm, you can ask professor kim himself tomorrow, coach. for now, uh, i'll be going now. i'm sorry you guys lost…"
originally, the exit is on the right side, at the end of the hallway. but no, you are not going to pass by those two while on your way out so you ducked behind a random student standing on the coach's left instead and practically ran away from the scene.
everyone had been too busy. too busy looking at your retreating form to even notice jaemin and jeno exchanging glances, too busy to notice the latter untangling himself from their captain to slip away unnoticed, his hurried steps filled with a burning purpose.
Tumblr media
you didn't know why you ran, but you did. your shoes practically booming against the floor as you sped away through darkened hallways. you're sweating profusely, heart hammering in your chest. you can worry about professor kim tomorrow but right now you just had to—
"why are you in such a rush, pet?"
crashing into jeno felt like crashing into a wall. if it hadn't been for his arm quickly wrapping around your waist, then you would've landed on your butt before him.
with the small distance between the two of you, jeno could see as clear as day through your eyes.
jaemin was right.
it was addicting to stare into them.
especially when he can see every single one of your thoughts flying through your pretty little head. but hey, it wasn't their fault you were so easy to read.
jeno barely conceals the wicked smirk on his lips when your hands come up to his chest, trying to push him away but to no avail.
he can see your eyes shifting from shock, to confusion, until it finally settles on fear—to which it's slowly becoming a favorite emotion of his to see on your face.
"you know, jaemin is in a really shitty mood right now. and we were wondering, maybe you can cheer us up?"
no. this can't be happening.
"jeno, please." your dilated eyes and disheveled hair made his blood run south. "let me go. you don't want me. you don't need a third party in your relationship."
you yelp when he lets you go, literally shoving you against a wall—which you found out is actually a door, as it swings open as soon as your body crashes against it.
with jeno looming unforgivingly before you in his full height, the tears stung extra hard but you won't let them fall.
if he wanted to bask in the image of your weakness then it'll be something you'll deprive from him for as long as you can.
"i don't need a stupid bitch like you to tell me what i feel." he scoffs. "don't fucking kid yourself, you little whore—i don't want you. i'm not jaemin."
the echo of the classroom door shutting closed surged through you like a wake up call.
this is really happening.
you've always led a decent life, had done nothing too questionable and you've always thought maybe life will spare you if you lived quietly enough. but the feel of jeno's freezing hands crawling against your skin felt like life itself had spat at you in the eye and left you to rot in a ditch.
"i've always liked how you wore skirts," he comments. playing with the ruffled hem of the soft fabric as he purposely grazed his knuckles against your supple thighs. "gives me easy access, don't you agree?"
you scream when he flips your skirt up to reveal the innocent pink of your cotton panties. it was as if a switch had flipped inside of you and the will to fight started coursing through your veins.
"stop! jeno! i don't want this!"
his brows furrow, grunting as he struggles to push the waistline of your skirt up higher with how much you're thrashing underneath him. you buck your hips, tried curling in on yourself, anything to prolong what he wants to do to you.
with your legs trapped underneath his, you blindly reach forward, relying on your upper body instead to push and scratch whatever your palms and nails reached.
you continue screaming like a banshee until he shoved two fingers into your wet cavern.
"stop fighting me," he sounded strained, as if he's holding himself back. you feel him fisting the fabric of your skirt and you fear he's simply going to rip it apart.
you tried responding to him, only the sound had been muffled, gurgled by the flat of his fingers pushing down against your tongue mercilessly. when you reach forward to push him away, your hands land on the apple of his cheeks, nails digging through skin.
until it slips and—
you lie rigid when red scratch marks in the size of your fingernails slowly appear on jeno's skin, his head turned to the side as he paused. your actions slowly start sinking in to him as he shuts his eyes and bit his lip 'till it looked like it was about to bleed.
oh no.
"jeno—"
the slap he planted on your cheek left your ears ringing. all those hard earned muscles of his put to good use—if the tears hadn't fallen for the last few minutes, then it definitely started falling now.
the hit had been so strong, a few of your hair flew astray, the buzzing feeling of your skin tempting you to reach a hand up to soothe your abused cheek.
until jeno let out a low growl and your hand immediately drops limp against your body, afraid of whatever else he can do to you other than a slap.
"that's more like it," he whispers under his breath. you let out the tiniest of whimpers when his hand darts forward to fist your hair. "do you know what happens to bad girls? they fucking get busted up. do you understand me?"
his patience is nonexistent.
jeno slams your head against the floor when you don't answer because you thought his question had been rhetorical. it felt like your skull had been split in two as you wail in pain.
"are you fucking deaf—i asked you a fucking question!"
the hand that cups your jaw is painful as he squeezed your cheek with his blunt nails. your hand shoots up to wrap around his wrist, silently pleading for him to let up as you sobbed out loud. you started nodding as best as you can despite his firm grip on your face.
your reply was nothing short of pathetic. with lips forcefully pursed and the steady stream of your tears and snot rolling down your face, your response is gargled and hardly incoherent and jeno seemed to thoroughly enjoy your anguish if the condescending curl on his lips is anything to go by.
"look at you," he whispers, his face coming close to yours as he holds you down. there was something in the way jeno stared so intently that it made your skin crawl.
"i think you're prettiest when ruined like this."
with his nose touching yours, he felt too close, bordering on intimate as you felt his hand creep back up your thighs, trailing up with feather-like touches that made goosebumps appear on your skin.
you tried wiggling your legs underneath him but one sharp look from jeno is enough to make you stop.
the hand holding your face moves. coming down from gripping your face to encircling his hand around your neck.
"do you like it when i touch you? freaky bitch."
his hands trail further up, up, up until you felt him slotting a finger underneath your panties.
jeno didn't like how frozen you were underneath him as he pulls at the hem before letting go. the elastic snapping back against your skin.
the action evokes a strong feeling through the young male, promising to have you writhing and screaming and begging because by the end of all this, you'll be so needy and frustrated that you will have no choice but to give in to what your body wanted.
"jeno, didn't i tell you to play nice?"
someone stands by the door, the minimal light from the hallway creating a silhouette with his form but you knew who he was. that deep voice, with the same annoying flippant tone, is a dead giveaway.
you didn't know why you even hoped in the beginning. as if there'll be someone who can save you from these two.
you thought the flash of hurt in your eyes was quick to disappear but jeno noticed it quicker.
in a span of seconds, he pulled you up from your position from the ground and tugged you towards his lap. you haven't even gotten the time to settle on your new position when he already smashed his lips against yours.
it was messy. too much saliva. too much teeth. no tenderness to it at all.
the fabric of his jeans felt rough, not to mention the ice cold belt buckle made you severely uncomfortable as it seeps through the thin fabric of your skirt.
when you attempt to hover over his lap, jeno grunts as he snakes an arm around your waist, pulling you back down without your lips breaking away from each other. you didn't know why he let out a whine, but you understood the moment you fully sat down on his lap and you felt a tent on his jeans hitting your clothed entrance perfectly.
in a normal circumstance, you would've found everything hot and might've actually gotten off from it but not when it's him who’s doing this to you and you didn’t consent to any of this.
you start squirming again. palms lying flat against jeno's chest as you attempt to push him away and jaemin sees this as the opportune moment to slot himself behind you, caging you in between them.
“i want my turn,” he hisses and without an ounce of hesitation, jeno stops to do what he's told.
jaemin doesn't waste any second to grab your face, awkwardly craning your neck up to meet his lips in the same feverish kiss.
while jeno had been all teeth and aggression, practically forcing you to open your mouth and kiss him back, jaemin on the other hand is more soft, more romantic, you daresay. he seemed to like taking his sweet time by clutching your face, kissing you like he actually meant it.
he pulls away slightly, resting his forehead against yours as he murmurs something incoherent under his breath and then he's kissing you again.
you think you heard something along the lines of, "finally."
you've been too distracted by jaemin to notice jeno's nimble fingers quickly fumbling with the buttons of your blouse. it was only when you feel the sensation of his tongue laving against the swell of your breast did you turn away from jaemin, jerking backward in surprise.
"no—!"
your scream is cut off by a hand cupping your mouth. jaemin pulls your back towards his chest, molding your body against his as jeno licked and suckled all he wanted, thankful to have the other boy there to not worry about restraining you and keeping you quiet while he has his fun.
"ah, ah, ah," jaemin teases, going hard over the pleading and teary look you sent his way. it looked pathetic, he wasn't going to lie, but it doesn't mean he didn't love it. "just keep still and appreciate jeno's efforts to take care of you, alright baby?"
you don't like how he talked as if this was all a mutual thing, how he talked slowly like you were some toddler who didn't understand anything.
it's cruel how jaemin giggled and basked in your vulnerable state as he kept his eyes pinned on you while undoing the zipper of your skirt. your muffled cries of his name only serving to egg him on.
the way he stared was similar to jeno, too intently and intrusive, like he wants to burn your image of despair in the back of his head.
you whined involuntarily when jeno got bored of all the licking and thus decided to start biting and nipping at your chest instead. he was hypnotised by how responsive you were, how every little bite and nibble made you shudder.
it was a shame that jaemin had to cover your mouth. he didn't get to hear your pretty mewls but it wasn't as if he'd let the night end without hearing them loud and clear.
jaemin is fast in undressing you, feeling slightly betrayed by how quick your skirt and blouse fell under his hands.
you know what he wants, what he's going to do, and the tears fall harder when you can't dodge away from him. forced to endure and accept whatever they give you.
"you act like you don't like it but look how fucking wet you are," you bit your lip hard when jaemin starts circling the pads of his fingers against your clit, fascinated by how more juices streamed down your thighs.
"jeno, do you see this? fuck."
you can only blink in defeat, staring off to the side as you force down any noise bubbling up your throat, forcing yourself to think of anything else other than what's happening right now.
you try not to think about how they managed to tear all of your clothes off while they're left completely dressed. tried not to think about the fingers lazily drawing up and down your slit to collect your essence.
if they're doing this as a way to further humiliate you, it's working.
"slut," jeno mocked, a wicked curl on his lips when he wraps his fingers around your throat. the moment he dives down to claim your lips again is the same time jaemin pushes two fingers inside you.
"look at how wet you are because of me," jaemin whispers hot against your ear and you feel a sick churn in your stomach when you feel his smile against your skin.
he purposely drives his fingers in and out quicker, settjng a brutal pace, wanting you to hear the lewd squelching sounds. "hear that? do you hear that, darling? that's because of me—"
"don't go talking big now, jaem," jeno retorts, pulling away from your lips to start nibbling on the back of your ear. "i was here first. did you see how she fucking reacted when i sucked on her tits?"
you're quick to catch how jeno particularly loved degrading you. but how he talks about you as if you're literally not in front of him naked made you hit a new all-time low.
you felt… filthy.
his hands find purchase on your butt—only because jaemin has already claimed the front. for now.
you close your eyes tight when he painfully squeezes the flesh of your ass. you swear, his blunt nails will paint your skin black and blue.
"i'm the favorite!"
"i'm the favorite!"
as someone who's part of a varsity team, you already knew a competitive nature runs through jaemin's veins. but never had you thought jeno would share the same sentiment. once again they prove that they're cut from the same cloth.
all of a sudden it wasn't all about claiming you as theirs anymore rather it was all about who can make you moan the loudest, who can make you cum the most, who can make you feel the dirtiest you can be.
you're absolutely terrified for the hours to come.
thankfully, they have yet to ask for your verbal opinion or validation. they let your body do all the talking—every repressed shudder and sharp gasp is enough.
but it's game over once they pop the million dollar question.
"who do you like best?"
you don't want to find out the consequences if you actually answered their question because you didn't know what could be worse.
jaemin's manipulation or jeno's aggression?
but it was all normal. trial and error is inevitable in order to build and mold you into the ideal lover for the both of them.
because adding someone new to the mix has never been easy—after all, three's a crowd.

The Sentimentalist (pt. III)
Tumblr media
(cw: violence, heavy emotional themes)
Refr, though–there was the crux of it. The part of the performance with the dramatic pause: ‘and then, Refr.’ Every step he took was so calculated, so planned and carefully thought out. If he annoyed you, it was because he meant to annoy you. And he was good at it. He played mental chess; he over-under-overstrategized; he nenna-ed to the tune of his own drum. 
Sometimes it astounded Rafi, how well his brothers took to the ways of outsider men. So many of their male comrades subscribed to the belief that tough things were best handled by not really handling them at all. Or by destroying them, which was bad, almost worse. Rudi could grin and punch through life, but Refr devoured it. He thrived and excelled at it. Refr, the sly fox; Refr, the snake. Sixty summers since they were exiled–living between kingdoms and cities and slums and palaces–and he was still most at home five fulms up his own princely ass. 
“...exiled?”
- 🌿 -
The last time they saw her, he couldn’t speak; he was panting, throat searing, lungs pumping for breath. They had raced down from the canopies, him and Hrudr, tearing over roads and bridges, frantically loping ahead of the other men, who did not yet know. 
The women already did, however; the Mist must have told them. Two guards caught the brothers at the gate and dragged them in by the arms.
Hrudr thrashed. “Where is Refr?” 
“What happened to him?” Hrafn added, struggling, dreading what they were going to say. 
The guards did not answer. Mothers were coming out of their houses with fat babies on their hips, while squads of gangly children gawked at them from behind bushes and stumps. 
Maja was on the pavilion by her bench, wide-eyed. Her hair beat wild around her in sheets.
“The Serpent,” she shrieked, anguished. “The Serpent! Is it true? Is it true, did it–did he–?”
Her hands. He saw them in great detail then, like a lens flashing up close. Raised, narrow, wandering sinews made the most perfect circles around her knuckles, and tiny spots, each vaguely translucent, bloomed above her plum-colored veins. Her palms, cupped and crinkled, were like the skin of an onion, so thin and fine; the talon-nails, dark as bruises, were limned black with dirt. They were grabbing him, shaking him, cursing him and his brothers–these, the hands that had given him life. 
- 🌿 -
“So you didn’t leave?”
Silence, again.
“You all were exiled?”
Nothingness. A vast, unavailing blackness. The Wood is not a quiet place, but on that night–the night of the Serpent–he couldn’t hear anything. Not even his own pulse. 
“But what happened?”
Now, it drummed like a hammer in his ears.
“What did you do?” 
- 🌿 -
There was a tree. Several of them, actually; if you mapped them, the dots would span the realm from east to west. A date palm in Yedlihmad, a silver laurel in a field below the Abalathian foothills. He once visited cedar saplings freshly planted, their tiny needles fanned out in the La Noscean breeze. Columnar pines, waxy-leaved apples and persimmons overburdened by fruit–the wiry, winding, spindly little larch jutting over the salt rock shore north of Shoal Rock. From Kugane to Coerthas, Gangos to Gridania, they all sufficed, when he needed a tree. 
This is what he did, the ritual: the thing nobody knew, not even his brothers. He went to each tree and put his hands on its trunk. He touched the bark gently, examining for sap, splinters, stinging caterpillars; carefully, almost lovingly, he brushed away the moss. He put his forehead to the bark. With his eyes closed, he would lean there, touching the tree for moments, minutes, long meditative hours–sometimes only a second. It depended on how badly he needed it. Needs like this are timeless. One day he may stand there for days.
He would let go. Sinking down the side of the tree, crouching and squatting, hunching over the imprecise space where the tree met the ground, he’d wait. If there was undergrowth, he’d part it, mindful not to uproot anything vital. The moment his fingers touched earth, however, he began to dig.
Serpent, serpent…
A lot depended on the soil. The dirt and sand–it could be both, or very rocky and dusty, stubborn with pebbles–reached further up his fingers. His forearms were umbered with silt. He scooped away worms, beetles, the opaque red pellets of pupating moths. He dug and dug and dug. 
Come, serpent, come–heal the pain. 
Often, he wept. Tears pushed up and out of him, beading clear and hot on his eyelids. Dirt on his tattooed cheeks would blacken them as they rolled down, darkly streaking his beard. Big, heaving sobs shook his chest. It was habitual in these moments for him to wail. 
Serpent, serpent, take this pain! Maja–
He sat back, staring in.
What did he see? What did he find? 
Maja? 
Nothing. Usually, agonizingly, nothing–just rocks and dirt. He never dug too far. He went by instinct, sufficed when his tears stopped, clearing the view of this small, desperate hollow carved out of hurt and ache. 
But sometimes there were tree roots, kaleidoscoping with shards of fungi. Or salt crystals and earthworms, a cluster of snails in opaline whorls. The curve of a dead carnivore’s jaw. 
Depleted, exhausted, wholly empty of what he carried, there was nothing left to do but fill the hole. Slowly he packed it in fistfuls, evening out the recess. He wanted it to look as if it hadn’t been recently disturbed. Finished, he got up and wiped his hands. 
Some day, he would tell his brothers. He might even bring them, just one, or both–it didn’t matter. Where one went, the others went, too, in time. And if they had rituals of their own, he would observe them, listen; he might even join in. That was their nenna. He would be patient and understanding, their chronicler of the ways things are.

Humboldt squids (Dosidicus gigas) are really fascinating animals. Those up to 2,5m long squids tend to hunt in shoals (or squads?) of up to 1200 individuals and change their colors to communicate with their fellow squids.  Squids are cool, okay?

//I don’t know who else besides the people I already know is in both the Star Trek: Picard and Red Dwarf fandoms but I have an idea for a fanvid of Cris and the Holo Squad to the Red Dwarf theme but I have zero video editing skills so I have to just write it out instead.
I might try to gif it later too instead of making a fanvid, because I could probably do that. But anyway:
"It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere" Shows an outside shot of La Sirena and maybe Cris staring out through the sunroof in his quarters from episode 3 
"I'm all alone, more or less" Shows Cris at the 'I'm all alone' part and then all of the holos at the 'more or less' 
"Let me fly far away from here" Shows one of the times Rios is flying the ship
"Fun fun fun in the sun sun sun" Shows another outside shot of the ship, but like it taking off 
"I want to lie" Emmet leaning back in his chair in episode 4 when he should be shooting "ship wrecked and comatose" La Sirena on Coppelius for 'ship wrecked' and Emmet sleeping in episode 8 for the 'comatose' 
"Drinking fresh mango juice" Cris on Freecloud ordering and drinking the cocktail with two umbrellas 
"Goldfish shoals nibbling at my toes Fun fun fun in the sun sun sun" (x2)  Maybe just some fun holo squad moments

Mass Effect Trilogy Tag!
I was not tagged by anyone, I just really wanted to join in. If you see this and want to as well, please do! I've been loving reading through everyone's :)
I am a fan since… 2011ish? Definitely at least a year before ME3 came out. I remember watching my brother play ME2 and thinking it was so cool. While he was away it was a huge comfort for me to play it in his room, kind of like a bonding or cathartic experience for someone who wasn't there at the time.
When ME3 came out, me and him went to the midnight release at a gamestop like 40 minutes away or something, wearing clothes we threw together to kind of fit the N7 color scheme. Even though we don't talk anymore, those memories are still really precious to me. Also, the nostalgia of playing ME1 after-school or on the weekend, running to get my easy mac from the microwave during a cutscene, stuffing too hot mouthfuls while speeding the Mako towards the conduit on Ilos.
Favorite game of the series: It's a tough call between ME1 and ME2, but I'd say ME2. It's the game I get the urge to replay the most.
MaleShep or FemShep? Femshep all the way. I only play MShep when I want to do his exclusive romances. No offense to BroShep, but ME was the first game I ever played that let me not just be a girl, but customizable. Not just to be the already generated token girl character in a pack of boys. And not only can you play Femshep, but every game you are surrounded by smart, funny, tough women as squadmates. It was such a huge deal to me, and still is. Femshep represents so much. As Jennifer Hale put it, FemShep was a military grade boot to the video game industry glass ceiling.
Earthborn, Colonist or Spacer? I personally tend to lean spacer in-game, but I tend to use Earthborn when I'm writing fics.
Paragon or Renegade? Usually Paragon, but Renegade playthroughs can be really interesting, especially if I have a detailed background about why Shep is the way they are. My first Renegade, Krystle, is pretty bigoted and anti-alien until she meets Liara. Krystle is naturally guarded and quick to anger, so meeting someone who seemed to accept her and listen to her without judgment really opens her mind.
By the 2nd game, she wakes up in the cerberus lab with new biotic powers, having previously been a regular foot soldier. This makes her seeth, having someone completely take her agency, agreeing with the illusive man on the surface but plotting against him the entire time. She starts to lean more Paragon, if only to piss him off. She has the biggest smirk on her face when she blows up the collector base.
Biotics or Tech? Oooh, this is hard. Maybe biotics just the tiniest smidge because of Jack/Samara biotic bubble throw during the suicide mission. I don't know if we'll ever get a screen adaptation but THAT is a moment I would pay to see done with a big SFX budget behind it.
Favorite class: Sentinel! I don't know how much this reflects on my class preference in gaming in general, but I love the 'jack of all trades'ness of it. By the time I get an assault rifle, I don't really feel the need for anyone else to make up for something I lack. Also, tech armor in ME2? Where your shields regenerate automatically when it breaks, and the cool down is when you initially active it, instead of when you detonate it? Chef's kiss. I understand why it was nerfed in 3 but I'm still mad.
Favorite companion: Ho boy. This is obviously very difficult to choose but I'm gonna say Miranda. I've always loved and identified with her character, I love the accent, and she's always useful on missions. I was so happy when I learned she could be a squadmate in the armax arena.
Honorable mention to Ashley in ME1. Her character is rarely used to exposition lore, so she just gets to have her personality fleshed out. I don't always agree with her but she does seem genuinely willing to listen. ME3 tosses her out the airlock though; partially because her content was bugged and never restored, leaving her inclusion feel half-baked, and partly because Ash and Kaidan have to be able to serve the same plot function as each other and it negatively affects her character more than his. This could also be intentional on bioware's part, to try to flesh out kaidan's personality and tone down Ashley's as a response to criticisms of them from ME1.
Least favorite companion: Also difficult, because I don't really hate anyone as much as I am just less interested in some. I didn't like Zaeed for a long time, but I think he's much better and really funny in ME3. James was pushed on me too much at the beginning and it made me really dislike him, but I think he's greatly improved and also pretty funny in Citadel DLC. I'm also pretty indifferent to Jacob; I don't think he's a bad character, just disappointing because there was a lot of potential.
Not that every character has to go on and do some grand quest to be interesting, but I don't feel like Jacob every really got a big hero moment like everyone else. He is a very calm and introverted person (imo) who doesn't really share his feelings, so it's always been hard for to to connect with him on anything.
My squad selection: Depends on the game, but it usually involves Garrus lol. Typically it's Liara/Garrus in ME1, Miranda/Garrus for ME2, and Liara/Garrus again in ME3. I am very boring and predictable! If you have any suggestions for me to try out and mix things up, let me know!
Favorite in-game romance: Also depends on the game. ME1 it's Liara, hands down. It was the first game, really the first piece of media, where I was told two women could fall in love and be happy and that was okay. The amount of enlightenment and comfort in figuring out that I was bi these games brought me is kind of wild to look back on.
ME2 is a toss-up between Garrus and Thane. They are both wonderful but in completely different ways. I tend to now romance Thane on characters I don't plan on importing to ME3, or if I do, to just have a really depressed fucking Shepard lol. I hate how much Thane was brushed off, especially if you romanced him.
Other pairings I like: l love Miranda so much, but I'm a gay girl so I ship her and Femshep. Same goes for Tali, Jack, Ashley... damn I'm just really gay for straight girls huh :/
I don't really have any other ships for non-Shep related pairings.
Favorite NPC: Shiala is really cool to me, I wish we got to see her in 3. Emily Wong is also cool, also wish we saw her in 3. There's probably a lot more that when I come across them next I'll be like, "you! I love you! You're my favorite."
Oh also Joker! And EDI! But not together. Idk I feel like ME3 threw a curveball at me with "do you support organic/non-organic relationships?" Like m'am please don't ask me, I accidentally drank turian liquor last year, I'm not qualified to be an expert on this.
Favorite antagonist: Tbh I really dig Saren. I think his reasoning is super fascinating, both to set up how someone who's indoctrinated can rationalize to themselves that they are still in control; and as a foil to Shepard, to show what can happen when you become too isolated and the ends justify the means. I think his VA does a great job of walking the line between desperate survivor and madman. He's also the only antagonist in the trilogy that we ever fight 1 on 1 (ignoring squadmates) and it feels more personal. I think he's such a fantastic foe for the first entry in a trilogy and I don't think he gets enough credit.
Favorite mission: Is it cliche to say the suicide mission? It's honestly close to perfect. The stakes, the sequencing, the cinematics, the score. Everything works so well.
Favorite loyalty mission: Kasumi's and Tali's are really cool, as we all know. Samara's is also cool because it is entirely non-combat based. Shepard has to prove they can accomplish what seems impossible without a gun or biotics.
The confrontation at the end with Morinth always haunts me a little, because they are both right in their own way. Morinth's final line, "and they say I'm the monster", as you let Samara kill her, watch her scrambling backwards in fear... I know that she's a remorseless killer, but it gets me every time.
Favorite DLC: It's Citadel, obviously. Turns out what I really wanted was quality time and a party with all my friends. I love mass effect for many reasons, but simulating friends and affection when I had none has always made me bond to this series like other games don't. Is it sad? Sure! But I don't think love and affection for fictional characters should ever be shameful until it makes you hurt other people.
Control, Synthesis or Destroy? I'd say destroy. If the other options were presented earlier and we had time to stew with it, maybe I'd be more split. But all of this in 5 minutes? It's not like the collector base where the implications are obvious and the choice is just down to what Shepard believes. The 3 choices all seem like space magic out of nowhere, and none of them seem to really offer any insight on what Shepard should believe. So I say destroy, just because it's what Shep has intended and is most consistent with their character and their admiration of Anderson.
Favorite weapon: The spectre level assault rifle in ME1. Never have I felt more powerful.
Favorite place: Idk why but I just thought of the creepy lab with all the scientists during the leviathan DLC. I really love when Mass Effect leans into the Lovecraftian horror aspect of things. Talking to Sovereign and Vigil in ME1 gave me goosebumps my first few playthroughs.
A quote I like: I have hundreds, but the one off the top of my head is, "After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began." I have a poster of it up on my wall right now!
