#WOOOO FINALLY POSTED IT

(AU) An Early End: PROLOGUE

TW: Mentions of @bus$e, and canonical child @bu$e

No matter how much he boasted, no matter how strongly he proclaimed their dominance in Concordia owing to their family name, Archie could have never predicted the sudden intrusion of the Concordian Flying Squad into his father's estate.

His father, had seized and dragged him up to his room the moment he returned from assisting his mother in Crimson Banks with her distillery business. The entire situation was a whirlwind as he was forcefully marched upstairs, his arm still burning from his father's grip. It was all too familiar – Malcolm's rages had resurfaced, and Archie unfortunately found himself at the receiving end once again.

"I had hoped your exile in Switzerland would have instilled some sense into you! Why are you still the same haughty child from months ago?! I demand to see a mature and composed man, not a whining brat!" Malcolm had yelled, before shoving Archie unceremoniously into his room.

He was getting impatient, wasn’t he? He truly wants to see a man the moment he returned. Even when he helped his mother, it is only met with a dismissive demeanor.

Archie had braced himself, fully expecting the sting of his father's leather belt to lash across his back. In the midst of the tirade, Archie was still stammering out questions when something abruptly diverted his father’s attention. Malcolm's irritation turned momentarily to a servant, barking orders to answer the insistent calls at the front door. Frustration boiled over as he shouted at the servant upon learning that the visitor wished to speak with him.

Just before he left him, a stern warning was imparted to Archie, for his punishment had not yet been done.

"Stay put in this room, Archie, unless you want to feel both the leather strap and metal end of the belt across your back. Is that clear?" Malcolm's glare bore into his son before he slammed Archie's door shut, leaving him to contemplate the precarious situation he found himself in.

Moments earlier, he had anxiously awaited his father's return into the room, brandishing the belt. His apprehension growing for his awaited punishment. Strangely, his father seemed to be outside for an unusually long span. As he sat upon his bed, Archie let out a sigh, a mixture of relief and lingering tension.

"What must I do to be a capable son?" said Archie as he pressed his face against his hands. "What could I have possibly done to provoke him this time?"

With Malcolm, such questions always had answers, regardless of circumstances. In his father's eyes, Archie was a disgrace. Ever since his return from Switzerland, it seemed he existed as a mere pawn beneath his father's ever-watchful eye. The lectures and reprimands had become relentless, an almost daily ordeal, only interrupted by his father's obligations as a senator.

At this point, even breathing too loudly will cause him to yell at me again.

Almost each day, Archie braced himself for yet another reprimanding, or perhaps even a harsher punishment to be given out.

The forceful swing of a door ajar went unnoticed, overshadowed by the absence of Malcolm's presence. Instead, a singular uproar echoed in Archie's ears, emanating from the lower floor. There, an eruption of voices, abrupt and intense, among them the distinctive tones of his father.

Caught off guard by the sudden tumult, Archie sprung from his bed. advancing toward his chamber door, he pressed his ear against its wood surface. His hand rested on the doorknob, ready for an exit. Yet, a moment of uncertainty held him back.

His father had a stern instruction not to leave his room. Nevertheless, urgency pervaded the voices downstairs—his father's among them. Wait, this could be significant.

The reverberating commotion from below carried across the corridor, and Archie's discernment caught more than just his father's voice.

"Release me! This is utter nonsense—"

"Senator Rochester! You are hereby arrested on allegations of orchestrating the wrongful confinement of your political adversaries within Gryphon Sanctuary asylum, utilizing fabricated accusations, and engaging in multiple instances of abusing your senatorial authority!"

Everything went blank in Archie’s mind as he heard those words. He felt frozen in place.

What? No.

No. It couldn't be.

This has to be false, it's absurd. It can't be. It isn't possible.

A heavy sensation clawed at Archie's insides, his eyes widening with disbelief. His father, arrested? Total madness. What he's hearing—it's like, no, it can't be happening. It's like everything's crashing down.

"ARCHIE! COME DOWN HERE!"

"Blasts," he muttered. " "Even when he’s being arrested, he wants to berate me." His fingers clamped onto the doorknob. It felt like there was a knot forming, twisting in his gut and constricting his chest. A conflict churned inside him, torn between rushing out to face his father, the fear of another scolding propelling him, and staying put in his room, driven by the same gnawing dread. His breath hitched, a shaky uncertainty holding him back from that final step outside.

What if he just... stayed put?

"ARCHIBALD ROCHESTER!"

‘Step out, help him,’ Archie's inner voice urged. ‘He needs you-–’

"ARCHIBALD ROCHESTER, IF YOU DO NOT COME DOWN IMMEDIATELY–"

‘But he'll yell at you regardless, yet-’ Yet what?

What could he do to save his father from arrest? His father had cleared his name in his Mr. Alastor scandal. However, now the same man that had cleaned his hands might no longer be at his side? What use was it to step outside? Was he going to step outside in fear of the possibility of a beating?

"ARCHIE–"

“Mister Rochester, that will do. We are taking you into custody while we await Judge Lawson’s call for the trial.”

Those words yanked Archie from his reverie. A fleeting sense of relief washed over him, a thin veneer of comfort that he might escape a confrontation.

'What in the world were you thinking? Your father's been hauled off!'

"No! This is insane, I should've been there!" cursed Archie. "I'll probably get blamed for this too–"

With a resolute motion, he swung the door open, running across the corridor. Arriving at the top of the staircase, his eyes fell upon his father, being taken away by constables, wrists in handcuffs, with Detective Bontempts and Chief Wright behind them.

As Archie watched his father being taken away by the constables, he hurried down the stairs to catch up with Chief Wright, who stood resolutely by the door. Struggling to catch his breath, Archie confronted the chief, demanding for answers.

"Chief Wright," Archie gasped, his hand pressed to his chest, "where are you taking my father?"

Chief Wright crossed his arms, eyeing Archie with a frigid stare. “Mister Rochester, your father is bound for incarceration, accused of dispatching his political adversaries to Gryphon Sanctuary."

"Yes, yes, I'm aware," Archie retorted. "Explain to me, is there–"

"Regrettably, there exists no avenue for your intervention, young sir," Chief Wright replied icily. His tone harbored unwavering certainty, taking him back to their last interaction when Archie walked free from custody on the night he was apprehended as Mister Alastor. "Concrete evidence has been amassed against him, and his trial stands prepared for this very afternoon. Good day."

With that, he left.

What in the world just happened? His father, apprehended. The man who, to Archie, had been invulnerable. To the public, he was affable—a virtuous senator incapable of wrongdoing. But behind closed doors, the father he knew was... well, to put it mildly, stern. But this? It couldn't be true!

What would guarantee his father’s sentence? Archie knew of his father's transgressions, political or personal, but he covered his tracks meticulously. It couldn't be his father's visits to those prostitutes – that wasn't a criminal offense. Or perhaps it was related to his father's involvement in confining his adversaries to the asylum? Maybe a servant had told the authorities of what happens at Malcolm’s manor? That Justin Lawson had surely seen fit to penalize such things. What could have led to his father's arrest? And what would become of his father, of him?

Would his father be even be able to walk free, like he did?

Collapsing to the floor onto his knees, Archie felt a tightness in his chest. He reached for his inhaler from his jacket, still grappling with the reality unfolding before him. One thing was certain.

After the trial, Archie would visit his father. He couldn't explain why, but it was imperative. Regardless of whether his father was behind bars, he had to see him.

seeing a lot of talk of the season 5 finale, which is fun, i get that it was controversial (honestly the fact it was really risky is kind of one of the things i like about it lol) and wanting to add my two cents but can't think of much i haven't already said before

but something i do want to emphasize is that season 5 ending on Marinette telling the biggest, boldest faced lie she's ever told (that goes far beyond "protecting her identity") to kick off the Lila arc is by far the coolest thing they could've done imo, because I was not at all excited for the Lila arc before but now I'm totally invested. Now Lila isn't the Evil Liar to be taken down by Good Marinette. Marinette is the liar to be taken down by the very liar that she took down. It's not a story of "defeat that freakishly evil girl" anymore, but instead a story of "Marinette's own actions and decisions coming back to bite her". And the lie itself (WHICH LILA KNOWS IS A LIE!!) only exists because, and is most impactful towards, her relationship with Adrien, which is the core of the series!! I CARE about their relationship, and that's the stakes!!!

I just cannot get over how cool that is, and how much I didn't expect it. I know we all were expecting a big fight with Ladybug and Chat Noir just defeating Gabriel and then watching Chat Noir cry or whatever in the few remaining minutes of screen-time and then it's all over and done with, but that's a series finale. This was a season finale. And they did something really unique and unexpected with it, while making sure it's a juicy season-finale conflict that leaves me actually excited about season 6

also, a side note— I think the framing of the finale made this confusing so I totally get why discussions about it are kind of all over the place, but... 90% of the post-wish stuff we saw had nothing to do with Gabriel at all. It was all Mayor Bustier, who was already running for mayor and wanted to enact green laws and projected to win (she was up against D'Argencourt, the character whose schtick is that nobody ever votes for him in elections). I don't think Gabriel's wish included "Please, Gimmi, I want my son's school teacher to win the mayoral election this year" lol. So a lot of talk of "why is Gabriel's World presented in such a positive light?" is kind of weird to me. That's not Gabriel's World. That's Caline Bustier's. All we know so far about Gabriel's World is that Nathalie is in it and he is not. And frankly, the fact everyone is so happy and cheerful and living it up after his death is more a roast than anything

( also, just a reminder that the presentation of Gabriel's statue— the only scene discussing Gabriel in a positive light by someone In The Know— was done by Tomoe Tsurugi, a series antagonist, vowing to continue his work, with a song in minor key playing in the background. i feel like the question of "was this meant to be unsettling or triumphant?" is pretty obvious. just wanted to remind everyone. also by definition characters cannot celebrate gabriel as a "hero" without in the same breath celebrating monarch's, aka gabriel's, death. yknow? )

#ml s5 spoilers #re-creation spoilers #ml re-creation #recreation spoilers #ml recreation #as w all my posts this really isnt meant to be an invitation for you to tell me what you didnt like about it #i do GET IT because i think this finale was very risky and intentionally controversial so im not surprised/dont blame you if you hate it bu #i've heard a lot of arguments against it and tbh none have been able to change the fact that I actually like it a lot so #idk would probably be more productive to make your own post about it haha #also side note: WOOOOOOO THE MYSTERIOUS WOMAN CONFIRMED TO BE AMELIE WOOOO #me hearing that it was confirmed like ''why am I gasping? i already knew that''

“Why did you kill the Chancellor?”

He deserved it. He had to.

“Why did you have to?”

The Chancellor looked like a kind old man until he didn’t and Fox was spitting blood onto the plush red carpeting in his office. The Chancellor did not care about the Guard. The Chancellor didn’t care if they died or starved or were killed; worse than that, the Chancellor wanted them to suffer. He never said it, but Fox saw it in his eyes. He hated them.

Fox hated him.

He’ll say it this time: the Chancellor deserved to die.

“...Okay. This is all very important information, Commander Fox. Thank you.”

Commander Fox assassinates Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. The war ends. After that, all that's left to do is recover.

Introducing Gloom Twilight!

info dump under cut: SUPER LONG

He is an embodiment of the Twilight sky, he is the transition from day to night, he use to live in the sky, in the clouds but left.... due to family issues

His favorite color is purple

He has a cat named pom:

She is cuddly, not a single violent bone in her body, he found her right before he left the sky, she was abandoned in a box, sad and hungry

gloom has a calming aura that always just kinda surrounding him, especially when he is sleeping

If you cuddle with him when asleep, you'll have a deep sleep and calming dreams

He cant open both his eyes at the same time! He isn't entirely sure why, but one eye must be closed in order for the other to open, he can close both of them at the same time though, He usually keeps his Gold eye open because he is legally blind in the red one, he can see vague shapes but that's about it, he opens the red eye when he's about to sleep but doing things like changing into pajamas and brushing his hair as to "rest the other one"

(another symbolism of balance because I'm artsy like that~✨)

He can play the flute!

He doesn't like to show off, he usually pulls it out and plays mindless little lullaby tunes on it when he's alone and wants to fill the silence.

...he does have a nightmare form but...

...let's not discuss it...

Edit: GAH I FORGOT

He covers his mouth when he laughs or smiles real big because he's afraid a bug will fly into his mouth

AND!! He has a very soft glow to him

[definitelynotshouting]

everything i loved and feared

Summary:

Grian does not say I love you. He does not say anything at all. Instead he guides Scar’s head down, until their lips brush, the taste of copper flooding Scar’s tongue. Then his hand drops, and his lungs stutter, one last, pained noise escaping his lips–

Scar wakes up choking on his own desperate scream.

For a moment, that’s all he can comprehend– the agonizing wail of loss that reverberates through his entire body. Scar breaks off with a harsh gasp, breath coming in short, stuttering bursts as he lifts his hands to cover his face. Grian’s lifeless eyes flutter in the dark spaces between his palms and pupils; Scar heaves, and shakes, and coughs as he forces his rabbiting heart to slow and his breaths to come even and deep.

He has to see if Grian’s okay.

Got tired of this hanging out in my rough drafts bin while i tried to edit it, so im posting it now to the rough draft pseud because it deserves to at least see the light of day. In the wise words of my discord server members: fuck it we ball

[jeena-says-hi]

Me and @overanalysingfandoms have started to make a Life Series/Star wars AU!

Grian was taken by the watchers at a young age cause they sensed how strong he is in the force, they trained him up and altered his DNA to add more power so he became one of the most powerful watchers, he was given wings by Watchers in process of becoming one of them but he hides them with illusion force magic, still has ear wings though

He is sent on a mission to retrieve a new “asset” but he knows its a person because the overheard the watchers talking about the mission

Grian escapes while on the mission, he decides not to capture whoever he asset is cause he knows how cruel the training and dna altering is and doesn’t want them to go through that like he was

He crash landed and met Scar on jungle planet,

(Scar is who he was sent to capture)

When Grian meets Scar, he develops a crush on him and makes a vow to himself to never let the watchers get/hurt scar

Scar is very powerful but has no training, hes like, “oh yeah I can just make stuff float with my mind”

Grian:

Scar also has a strong connection with animals through the force

Jellie is a Loth cat in the au:

Grian tells Scar that hes in danger and evil people (he doesn’t go into much detail about what the watchers are) want to capture him and experiment on him and turn him evil and that they have to get somewhere safe

We will post more about the story and the other characters later on, but if you have any questions about the au, feel free to ask me or overanalysingfandoms!

[speedyowl152]

I asked for an animal plushie for Christmas based off of a familiar in a fanfiction I adore. I did not get it. However! I got an Appa plush and he's sooo soft. Also. I got a blue/peach moonstone kwagatama and some rope and bits to turn it into a necklace and I asked for just the stone like 6 months ago for my birthday for my félix cosplay but! With the blue colour and black leather like rope it would also double as the magical focus that blorbo from the fanfiction wears at all times. By complete coincidence. Love when u obtain an item that can fit with multiple characters, never taking this off.

Hope everyone else is having a happy holidays too!

#was looking online for crystal necklaces and celtic symbols yesterday bc i was so sure i wouldnt be getting something like it #i also at long last have danny phantom a glitch in time! i can finally experience new physical content woooo #so mayhems focus ends up on a silver chain with a silver charm after the second book but in the first hes got it on a leather band sooo #also it being moonstone means its got the blue tones and when u hold it to light it glows around the impurities within which. 👌👌👌 #ancient and magical and mystical and elemental To Me. #both felix and mayhem would wear it under their shirts n that is comforting tbh #also the fact that its kwagatama shaped means its half a ying-yang symbol which is so mayhem vibes even if his crystal is raw idc #he's thought about carving it aleady. this is a valid interpretation. #mehen i shall ask for you for next birthday and based on current trends i'll have him in a year lmao #owly rambles #own post #fic: wga(ca) #what if i looked into finding a bracelet with 3 ravens. what then. #blorbo: mayhem #blorbo: félix graham de vanilly
